MTL - South Korean Entertainment Industry News Record-Chapter 650 old show
"This morning, Hyomin was chatting with me about what present you're going to give you for your birthday!"
"…"
"I said, for your birthday yesterday, I made a birthday table for you."
"…"
"Then Hyomin laughed like something and told me that you didn't have a birthday on the Gregorian calendar!"
"…"
"You're not going to say anything?"
"That...what, I actually don't necessarily pay attention to this..."
"The problem is, I'm embarrassed, you know!"
"Feel sorry!"
"Humph! Hang up!"
Zhang Che hung up the phone shyly, nodding embarrassedly to the people around him, he was currently on SBS with Cao Xiaozhen Hala.
At the end of the year, Cao Xiaozhen told Zhang Che at the PD annual meeting that it was not true. He called Zhang Che in a few days and made an appointment to discuss it in detail. Zhang Che went to MBC yesterday and came home sunny and gave it to him. A surprise, came to SBS today, sunny gave a surprise.
Anyway, after hanging up the phone, everyone present was joking, all of them were their own family members, Cao Xiaozhen, Zhang Che's junior sister, Liu Zaishi, etc. Zhang Che's teacher Jin Yinglan didn't follow the show very much recently. I was tired, so I put on a name, and Zhang Che was responsible for everything big and small.
Today, Cao Xiaozhen asked Zhang Che to come over. As long as he wanted to chat with Zhang Che about "Running Man", Cao Xiaozhen had no choice for the current "Running Man".
"Two Days and One Night" has re-emerged. Recently, MBC has also started to put on variety shows like a raging fire. "Real Men" became an instant hit. There is an inseparable relationship with Zhang Che, and even the news that came out of MBC, The main idea of the current "Real Men" was originally created by Zhang Che.
On the other hand, for "Running Man", due to various reasons, the ratings continued to decline. Although it has not reached the point of exhaustion, it will be a matter of time before the ratings will fall below double digits. Facing such a situation, Cao Xiao Zhen couldn't be indifferent, so he remembered Zhang Che.
Strictly speaking, Zhang Che was originally the main creator of "Runningman", but for one reason or another, Zhang Che left the show group, but in itself, excluding those in the upper echelons, people like Cao Xiaozhen and Zhang Che Their personal friendship is still quite good, so Cao Xiaozhen has the cheek to ask Zhang Che to help out again.
Zhang Che didn't have a good solution either. Cao Xiaozhen is a veteran PD himself, so it goes without saying that he is capable, but there is a problem with the PD of SBS, which is that he is too honest.
The PD of MBC's family is rebellious, but it also shows that they are creative. Because the people of KBS are state-owned TV stations, they are naturally more attractive than other TV stations, so geeks like Na Ying Shi and Li Ming Han often appear, but SBS is worse There are a lot of people here...it's easy to solidify, in simple terms it's a routine, the most classic example, "runningman" is actually just an outdoor "Xman" in essence, the same game, the same punishment and wit, just a spy Not very often, the traces of the tabletop are not that powerful.
That's right, only after I've done it, I know that "runningman" has less traces of script compared to "Xman". Compared with other shows such as "Infinite Challenge"...that's a joke.
In such an environment, it is not very useful to let Zhang Che come up with ideas. Not to mention whether the PD experience is enough, Zhang Che himself is very clear, he is relying on foresight, giving people the feeling that he is more "smart". When it comes to planning and organizational skills alone, Zhang Che is actually not outstanding, just normal.
And now "runningman" still has a more serious problem, that is, it shoulders the responsibility of publicity. This in itself is understandable. Artists generally promote their own works on the show, but the upper management of SBS, especially the promotion of their own TV series, is a bit too much. .
How should I put it, the general publicity is to leave some time at the beginning of the opening to promote it, and it will be over, how should the show go or how to go, but SBS...for the sake of the TV series, you can ask for a separate episode of the show...In this environment, how can people be free play.
Zhang Che likes "Runningman" very much, but... Zhang Che really can't do anything about it.
Without changing the format of the program, the game segment has actually used almost all the games that can be used. There are new games, but they don't seem to be within the scope of "runningman".
What Zhang Che thought of were some indoor classics or low-paced games. For the show "runningman" to be outstanding, it must have a tight rhythm, and the slow one was just another "Xman", so what Zhang Che suggested was to speed up the shooting rhythm and increase the plot. Reverse and other programs, and most importantly, try to reduce the proportion of the original stage as much as possible. The simplest, do not designate guest teams in advance, and even better not to give the guest list to the members in advance, and it is best not to say hello in advance.
"How can this be done? It's very rude!" Liu Zaishi disagreed with this. He is not like the legend, who can know everyone, and remember everyone's name. There is no guest list, so he can't introduce the guests. It's so rude.
"Hehe, it's better than pretending to know each other and getting along awkwardly without knowing each other!" Zhang Che retorted, "And the recent editing is also, you can see who will partner with whom from the moment they appear on the set, or it should be so obvious, It's better not to specify, it might be more interesting."
"In this case... some people's shots are not guaranteed!" Cao Xiaozhen was also embarrassed.
"Nonsense, when do you need to guarantee the shots of the guests when you go on TV? If you want to earn the shots yourself, but there are only seven regular members!" Zhang Che disagreed.
"However, some people's artistic ability is almost after all. If there is no camera, they will not act in the future..."
"Hehe, a master who is so busy that he doesn't have a lot of scenes in a day, what's the use of popularity, does it help the show? If it increases by 5 points today, it will drop back tomorrow? It's completely putting the cart before the horse. Don't come!"
Cao Xiaozhen was stagnant, a little speechless.
"It's easy to say, you think it's easy to find a guest like this, right? It's good if you can come. If there is no camera, people's managers will protest!" Zhang Che's junior sister looked at Cao Xiaozhen and seemed a little embarrassed, but she couldn't see it. Getting used to Zhang Che's condescending virtue, he spoke out to help.
"Let's not talk about how a management company can get a TV station, let's talk about ourselves... In Brother Shi, will PD Kim Tae-ho change his shooting plan and weight arrangement because of an agent's protest?" Zhang Che asked Liu Zaishi.
Liu Zaishi was also a little embarrassed, looked at Cao Xiaozhen, looked at Zhang Che, and finally nodded awkwardly, joking, who's manager dares to point fingers in front of Jin Taihao?
"Look, let me just say, the program team also has problems!" Zhang Che nodded and said, "The Republic of Korea does not lack stars, and there is also no shortage of TV dramas. It's okay to promote it, just say a few words at the beginning, and dance twice. How to do it or how to do it, if you have the ability to grab your own weight, if you don't have the ability, just be a vase."
Cao Xiaozhen was very silent about this. Of course he knew what Zhang Che said, and he knew that it was right to do so, but he couldn't do it. He is a TV station PD. He is not the same as the producer "Wild Road" PD like Zhang Che, and even Jin Taihao and Luo Yingshi are not as good as "privileged" PDs. He has a very low degree of freedom in his hands.
In order to cooperate with the promotion of TV series, the trump card variety show on weekends is always the first choice. The TV station wants him to cooperate with him, and he has a headache if he doesn't send someone to come. It is indeed as Zhang Che said, some people are not suitable for variety shows, but in order to promote TV series, they must have enough weight. What to do, you can only change the content of the game, or even make a special episode. He is not willing, but there is no way. .
After thinking about it, Cao Xiaozhen still couldn't make up his mind. He needed to think about it carefully. After all, it was not in the initial stage.
Love, Cao Xiaozhen still took it. After the meeting, a few people had a meal together as a relationship, and the next thing still had to be considered by himself. Zhang Che also knew that, so he left after eating, and Liu Zaishi was with him.
Liu Zaishi is a bit strange today, he speaks very little, not at all like he used to. He called the PD to discuss for four or five hours for the show. Even after the end, he claimed that he had a schedule to leave early and did not stay to continue with Cao Xiaozhen. They discuss together.
But Zhang Che knew that this brother didn't have a schedule, because he was rubbing Zhang Che's car and preparing to go home, and the manager and assistant were not at all ~www.novelbuddy.com~ Even Liu Zaishi didn't rush the schedule.
So Zhang Che waited for Liu Zaishi to speak.
"Che, there are some things... I don't know if I should say it or not!" Liu Zaishi looked very distressed.
"Did you get a request from Cao Xiaozhen's PD?" Zhang Che asked with a smile.
"Yeah!" Liu Zaishi nodded, and then he didn't say anything.
"Brother, tell me, does PD Cao want me to go back?" Zhang Che asked. In general, Liu Zaishi can't be so hesitant. It must be when the matter involves others and he is not sure if it is a good thing.
This brother is different from Jiang Hudong. Jiang Hudong will say whatever comes to his mind. When asked by others, he will help him if he thinks it is right, and refuse if it is wrong.
What is rare is that this brother can handle it very well, so HAHA said that he absolutely cannot do it to let him live like Liu Zaishi.
This time, it was really Cao Xiaozhen's request. Liu Zaishi was a little embarrassed. Although Zhang Che took the initiative to go, after all, it was when the program team was on the right track. Che is not an opinion. Besides, when he was brilliant, he had no family, and now he wants to invite others to come back. Liu Zaishi doesn't know how to open this mouth, and what he is most afraid of is Zhang Che's compromise because of his reasons.
"Xiao Che, to be honest, PD Cao really wants me to persuade you, but this matter... you can decide for yourself, don't think about me!" Liu Zaishi said ambiguous.
"Well, brother, I see!" Zhang Che smiled and said, "Brother, please tell PD Cao, I agree to this matter, anyway, I've been in a lot of trouble lately, so it's better to hide from the show crew!"
"…"
