Chapter 103: First Encounter with Pei Xiuzhi

Lee Sung-ho didn't make an appointment with IU for dinner, when he came back from country M, IU accompanied his grandmother to Gwangju.

TVN Broadcasting Bureau

Minister Kim An-min of the TV Drama Production Center and Minister Yoo Sang-ho of the Film Production Center were called to the president's office by Lee Sung-ho at the same time.

Entering September, the TV series "While You Were Sleeping" has completed all the production preparations.

The poster of the TV series is waiting for the promotion copy of the publicity department to come out, and the pre-broadcast publicity plan will be launched together.

Two versions of the main OST song were recorded, and Kim Anmin also brought it to the president's office to prepare for Lee Sung-ho to decide which version to use.

Yoo Sang-ho has been busy lately, and the movie was released in cooperation with NEW Film and Television Distribution Company, but Yoo Sang-ho took on the role of producer of the film on behalf of TVN.

Director Park Hoon-jung shot a three-minute promotional video for the film, which was being shown in his office at the time.

Li Chenghao nodded with satisfaction: "The fight scenes in the movie are well shot, and the sense of compactness is also very strong, according to such shooting techniques and plots, it is expected that the box office revenue will not be low after the release." ”

Yoo Sang-ho said humbly: "President Nim, rest assured, this is the first work of the film production center, and I will definitely do my best to do my best, but about the shooting cost, ......"

"How much is missing?"

Yoo Sang-ho was secretly happy

Director Park Hoon-jung is right, in order to get additional funding for the film, you first need to come up with something that will attract you and prove that the work you are about to shoot has the value of the additional investment.

Yoo Sang-ho also plucked up the courage: "If you add about 2 billion H yuan, you can improve the visual effect of the whole work to the level of a promotional video." ”

Before the change, Lee Sung-ho gave priority to TVN's investment.

But now that it has changed, it is more appropriate for TVN to contribute about 60%, NEW Film and Television Distribution Company is responsible for all the things that are released, and the remaining 30% Lee Sung-ho plans to let the entertainment company intervene.

Yoo Sang-ho's purpose is only to get additional filming funds, and he doesn't care who pays for it.

Hearing that there was money to take, he immediately made a military order, this work will definitely bring high returns, if he doesn't make money or even lose money on filming costs, he will take responsibility and resign.

"When You Were Sleeping" main OST Lee Sung-ho listened to two versions.

"The sound of the first version is more like humming, the air is half vocal and half, typical JYP style, Bae Ji-so sings it"

"The second version has a slightly muffled voice, and it feels like the drum surface vibrates when the drum is hammered, and Kim Jisoo sings it?"

Kim Anmin admired in his heart, worthy of being the head of the music division of CJ Entertainment for four years, he could hear who sang it as soon as he heard it, and he also directly pointed out the timbre characteristics.

"Which version does President Nim think is more suitable?"

shake one’s head

Lee Sung-ho felt that neither version was suitable as the main OST.

Especially the line in the chorus: "ineedyourlove, please take me away; ineedyounow, please hold me tight; ”

If this place is sung by a male singer with a hoarse voice, it will be more impactful and substitutional with the wonderful shots of the TV series.

"What about the other singers, singers with smoky voices."

As soon as the words fell, Li Chenghao thought of someone in a flash of inspiration, and immediately took out his mobile phone and started searching.

Soon, Li Chenghao's mobile phone began to play music, although it was not an H song, but the timbre of the smoky voice really had a different feeling.

After listening to the song with his eyes closed, Lee Sung-ho opened his eyes and asked Kim Anmin and Yoo Sang-ho, "What do you think?" ”

"It sounds very hoarse and magnetic, but President Nim, is this singer a Chinese singer? Our TV series ......"

"It is Wang Jiaer, a Chinese member of the GOT7 group, who sings this song, I will handle the OST matter, Minister Jin Anmin, and the production and press conference of the TV series will be implemented as soon as possible."

"I knew the president nim"

Out of the president's office

Kim Anmin and Yoo Sang-ho glanced at each other, originally thinking that Lee Sung-ho would choose one between Bae so-ji and Kim Ji-so to sing the lead OST, but it turned out to be unexpected.

Turning out Park Jin-young's phone number, Lee Sung-ho leaned on his office chair and dialed out.

Gangnam, Cheongdam-dong

JYP Headquarters Building.

Park Jin-young, who was creating a demo in the production room, received a call from Lee Sung-ho.

"President Lee Sung-ho Nim, this is our first call in about a year and a half."

originally

JYP is an entertainment company that belongs to the CJ camp, but after SK's capital injection in '05, JYP changed to the SK camp, and so far the cooperation between the two sides has been very pleasant.

In addition to having a very high talent in music, Park Zhenying also has a certain reputation in the chaebol circle, of course, what Lee Sung-ho knows is not a good reputation.

is polite to Lee Sung-ho because CJ Entertainment, a behemoth in the entertainment industry, is still not something that JYP can provoke.

Li Chenghao went straight to the point: "TVN has a TV series that wants to invite Wang Jiaer to audition OST. ”

"Garr? Why is he?"

Park Zhenying feels that it is not logical, if it is normal to invite Wang Jiaer to perform at a music festival, it is reasonable to perform rap songs, but there are many singers in JYP who are more suitable than Wang Jiaer for the type of lyrical songs like OST.

"I think it's a good fit"

Nothing is more decisive than Li Chenghao's words.

"Since President Lee Sung-ho nim thinks it's definitely no problem to be suitable, Jia Er hasn't had any work schedule conflicts recently, should I ask my agent to take him to TVN Broadcasting Bureau to meet President nim?"

"I'll come to JYP tomorrow, and I'll see you by the way."

End the call

Park Jin-young stared at his phone for a long time and was speechless.

Li Chenghao's first visit to JYP was not for himself, but for Wang Jiaer, just by the way, look at himself, when did Wang Jiaer surpass himself in Li Chenghao's mind.

TV drama OST, it seems that there is a TV series starring Suzy among the TV dramas that TVN is preparing to produce and broadcast recently, so this is it.

Three days ago, Suzy recorded an OST in the studio, it can't be that Wang Jiaer is more suitable for singing that OST than Suzy, No way, Suzy is an all-round artist, Park Jin-young doesn't want to believe that this will happen.

I sent a message to Suzy and asked her to come to the company tomorrow and see if that was the case.

After doing this, Park Jin-young still feels that it is lacking, TVN has been gaining momentum recently, and the talent show has attracted much attention, so JYP also has a talent show to cooperate with TVN, let Suzy be the initiator, and tomorrow we will talk about the possibility of cooperation.

The other side

Wang Jiaer also received a call from Li Chenghao.

Since exchanging contact information, the two have never taken the initiative to contact each other.

Wang Jiaer was as lively and cheerful as ever, and he was a brother when he answered the phone, which made Li Chenghao a little uncomfortable.

I heard that I was going to JYP tomorrow, or in order to try out an OST for myself, Wang Jiaer's first reaction was the same as Park Zhenying.

Ask Lee Sung-ho why he is him.

Until Li Chenghao said the sentence "I think your smoke voice is very suitable and very distinctive"

At that moment, Wang Jiaer's self-confidence exploded, and he chattered on the phone and turned on the boasting mode.

Li Chenghao directly threw the phone aside, and waited until Wang Jiaer finished speaking to end the call at the time of meeting tomorrow.

Eleven a.m. on September 3

JYP Headquarters Building in Cheongdam-dong.

Lee Sung-ho arrived at JYP at ten o'clock, and Park Jin-young greeted Lee Sung-ho at the door.

The two went straight to the recording studio on the basement floor, and Wang Jiaer came up directly and gave a hug after seeing Li Chenghao.

There was another person in the recording studio besides him, and although it was the first official meeting, Lee Sung-ho recognized this person at a glance as Bae Su-ji, the gold medal cash cow of JYP Company.
