Chapter 66 New Project for Men's and Women's Groups
"You just gave the second female lead in Yoon Seok-ho's new drama to Kim Tae-hee?" As soon as Li Xiuman saw Park Tier-tong, he asked, obviously hearing something.
"What are you talking about, isn't Yin Xihu's TV series already looking for good actors?" Park Tietong was stunned for a moment, he gave Kim Tae-hee a script, but it was not Yoon Seok-ho's "Winter Love Song", but "Stairway to Heaven". However, as far as he knows, the heroines of these two dramas have found Cui Zhiyou to play.
At first, he was worried that the filming dates of the two dramas would conflict, but after listening to the ideas of the directors and screenwriters of the two crews, he dispelled his doubts. One will start filming this year, and the other will start filming next year, as long as Cui Zhiyou does not affect the filming, he has nothing to say, and the actors of the latter have not yet been found.
"How did I hear that Yin Xihu is looking for a young actor?" Li Xiuman obviously didn't believe this, and he also had his own news channels. Although his main focus is in the music industry, it does not mean that he can't receive the wind in the film and television industry.
"Your message is behind and has been found. Besides, I'm just looking for a little actor, not a male and female lead, so I can't affect it. With this in mind, I still care more about new projects. "Park Tietong almost said, 'You still have to concentrate on the song world', it's really not that he looks down on Li Xiuman, but that no matter how long Li Xiuman's hand is, it can't reach out to the TV drama industry and the song industry.
His words were not only directed at Lee so-man, but also at Park Jin-young and Yang Hyun-suk. Don't look at these three people in the music industry, they have a lot of weight, but these three people want to put their hands into TV and movies, it's really not enough to watch, and the abusive degree of the film and television resources of its artists alone is enough to explain the problem.
"I don't want to say that if there is a good thing in this area in the future, don't just think about the people in the actor department, you can take a look at our trainees downstairs." are all human spirits, how can Li Xiuman not hear what Park Tietong means. It's just that he is thick-skinned enough and doesn't feel panicked at all.
Make money, don't chill!
He wrote in black and white that he would not participate in any decision-making of the actor department, but he also hoped that the idol department could also drink a little soup.
Which production company is developing the most vigorously now, people on Chungmuro Road may give different lists, but there must be P.L in the top three.
Although it has only been established for four years, every movie and TV series produced has not made a lot of money, and it has been a blockbuster and applauded.
"I know, I know, I'm definitely thinking about the people in our company. P.L Company is going to produce a variety show next, and when the time comes, we can make more appearances of our company's idols. Park Tietong nodded, he understood that he also wanted to help, but the premise was that there was this strength here that was worth his help. Otherwise, his useless help will cause Li Yinxin's dissatisfaction. Once or twice is no problem, but if there are more times, P.L should question him for fake public welfare.
The rule of movies and TV series is that strength is king, and variety shows are a little different, as long as you can let go of being funny. This aspect is often lacking in actors, most of them can't watch variety shows, and they tend to hold on; Cute beans and funny artists are more open-minded and willing to fight for opportunities to show up more.
"Variety show?" Li Xiuman hesitated a little when he heard this, and what he said also meant this. When he found out, he hurriedly explained to Park Tietong.
"It's not that I dislike variety shows, but why would P.L suddenly want to make variety shows?"
He also knows that no matter how small a fly's leg is, it is still meat, not to mention the work of P.L, which has made excellent production this year.
"At the beginning of something new, people are always questioned." Park Tietong was not unhappy, after all, when he and Li Yinxin proposed to produce a variety show at the internal meeting of P.L Company before, they were also questioned by everyone.
However, under his strong lobbying and Li Yinxin's strong support, everyone is also willing to test the waters.
The reason why Li Yinxin will support him so much is not only on the premiere day of "Blue Life and Death Love", he and Li Yinxin were waiting for the start of the broadcast in the company together, in order to pass the time, they wanted to find a good-looking variety show to make a transition, but who knew that after looking for a long time, none of them looked good, which made the two of them very uncomfortable, and they threatened to make a good-looking variety show at that time.
After so many years, the two of them brought up this matter again, mainly because the name of P.L Company was started in Chungmuro, and there were many directors, screenwriters, and TV stations who were willing to cooperate with them.
The most important thing is that the ambition of the two of them is not only to be based on Chungmuro, but also to become the No. 1 production company, and everything produced must be high-quality.
"Naturally, you will only do this when you see the market"
"If this variety show is launched, you can just let the company's idols have more shots." Li Xiuman thought about it, but he didn't lose anything, and he was profitable.
"Can I still take care of my own employees?" Park felt that he was not crazy, and under the same conditions, he would definitely open the back door for his own people. If the artists of other families are full of artistic ability, then he can't be blamed for taking care of other families.
"You don't have to worry about this matter, I'll give the stage, and you send idols. The top priority now is the new boy group, and our company can't afford to lose this market. ”
Li Xiuman knows that the myth can't be kept, and after the myth leaves, a new boy group must be launched as soon as possible to eat this cake, otherwise it will fall into the mouths of other families. This is not only a situation that Park Tietong does not want to see, but also he cannot accept it.
If there is no reserve talent in the company, then he will naturally suffer this dark loss. But their company is full of talent, and there is no shortage of capable people.
"I'm going to name the new boy group TVXQ, hoping that their popularity will never be defeated in the East. The number of people is set at 5, two top lead singers, two excellent lead singers, and one top lead dancer. ”
"Confirmed?" Park Tietong nodded, he felt that it should be the old five people if nothing else. In his opinion, the configuration of these five people is really high, and every single pull out is an all-round artist who can make his solo debut, with height, face, and good singing and dancing.
"I had a preliminary idea in my mind, but I still wanted to try more combinations, and I didn't finalize the candidate." Li Xiuman shook his head, this combination is an ambitious work, and the expectation is no less than H.O.T. Therefore, for every position in the group, he must pick the best one among this batch of trainees.
"We've got to pick up the pace, we're running out of time." Park Tietong didn't want to urge Li Xiuman, he understood the truth of slow work and meticulous work. But the day of mythology's departure is already counting down, and whoever makes the two sides unable to negotiate also knows that it is inevitable for Bo Gongtang.
"Don't rush, I know it. But your other girl group proposal surprised me. Li Xiuman waved his hand, of course he knew the problem of the mythical combination, after all, this was something he handled. But if he rushes out a defective product just to rush the work, he categorically can't accept it.
The second is Park Tier-tong's women's group project, which not only increases his workload, but also puzzles him. Since the S.E.S. generation, the music industry has entered the world of men's groups, and he hasn't seen any girl groups launch during this period, and he doesn't believe that Park Tietong doesn't know.
"It's just my desire to quit and test the waters, it's not our ambition." Of course, Park knows that the era of girl groups has not yet come, but he wants to launch it at a certain time to test the market's reaction.
"Besides, we can't keep pushing the men's group, otherwise a good female trainee Miao Zi should switch to other families."
"There's no way, this belongs to the day to rain, and the mother wants to marry." It is not uncommon for trainees to switch to the market, and Li Xiuman can't put an end to it if he wants to. Knowing that his company doesn't have her debut place, can he still stop others from chasing her dreams?
