Chapter 114: You Have a Lot of Potential
Chen Che’s heart surged with emotions. He understood that although Chu Zhengfei was the planner of Lemon TV, she was also a higher-up of Sky Entertainment Media Company.
Sky Entertainment Media and Lemon TV are both subsidiary units of the Hu Province Broadcast Station.
All of this seemed to imply that his relationship with Chu Zhengfei might become the key to his future development.
Zhang Enyi, a famous top variety director in Huajing TV, actually suggested that he expand his connections with Lemon TV
Chen Che was surprised. He had thought that the current era had already broken free from the so-called “door view”.
“Chen Che.”
Zhang Enyi seemed to have sensed his doubts. He stopped smiling and said calmly, “Have you thought about your future development direction?”
Chen Che shook his head. “1 haven’t thought that far ahead. Just thought to get the ball rolling first.”
Zhang Enyi extended his hand and gestured. His words were deep. “If you set your goal at ten meters, then the most perfect level is only ten meters. Perhaps a little more, you can reach twelve meters. If your goal is a hundred meters, although it might be difficult to achieve in the end, you might be able to easily reach a height of twenty to thirty meters.”
This principle enlightened Chen Che.
He looked at Zhang Enyi. “Director, what do you want me to understand? Please tell me directly. I am a little slow-witted.” 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝘦𝑤𝘦𝑏𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝘮
Zhang Enyi smiled. “You still dare to say that you’re slow-witted? It’s not like before.”
He waved his hand and avoided the question. He continued, “You know Lemon, Lychee, Fruit, and Huajing TV Many variety shows have borrowed the same model as Korea.”
Chen Che replied, “Well… I don’t think 1 can say anything.”
The director smiled. “You don’t have to comment. How can the outside world and netizens not know about this?”
He adjusted his glasses and continued, “I’ve thought about this problem before. For our domestic program producers, it’s not necessarily a bad thing to learn from it. But in the process of studying Korean variety shows, 1 found that an important detail was overlooked by many people.”
Chen Che widened his eyes and asked curiously, “Then you mean…”
The director looked at Chen Che firmly. “They all have a core comedian who will build a variety brand around this comedian.”
Chen Che was enlightened. “A national host like Yoo Jaesuk and Kang Hodong.”
The director smiled and nodded. “You still dare to say that you’re stupid? Don’t you have some understanding of this?”
Chen Che could not help but laugh and was speechless.
The director did not stop and continued, “But look at our country. There are very few professional comedians. Most of them are comedians or skit comedians. They know very well what their main job is. Making a show is just a way to quickly become popular and earn money. In China, no one specializes in programs. This is because they know that China is different from Korea. The market here is huge. Endorsements and film and television dramas are the true source of profit.”
Chen Che looked surprised. “Don’t tell me you’re encouraging me to become a special comedian? Moreover, it’s the kind that you personally nurtured. You bring me along no matter what program you do?”
The director chuckled and did not deny it.
He looked at Chen Che and explained, “I’m just a director. I’ve studied Korean variety shows. Their director is called PD, which is equivalent to a producer in our country. Although our country’s variety shows are divided, in fact, the producers, directors, and screenwriters have their own roles.”
The director sighed and continued, “Let’s look at the fixed members. The Korean variety shows are all led by a few professional comedians who are already outdated or afraid of outdated fixed members. Then, the guests invited are usually popular or active. Of course, there are many newcomers who need to develop.”
After a pause, the director continued, “But here, the situation is the opposite. Once they become fixed members, they become big-name celebrities. They get distracted and start to seek fame and fortune in movies and dramas.”
Chen Che was about to speak when the director interrupted him. “This is understandable. There’s no right or wrong. This is just reality. Everyone is thinking for themselves, and I’m no exception.”
Chen Che took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions. He looked at the director seriously. “You’re right. I understand. But you haven’t told me what this has to do with me.”
The director pondered for a moment and said, “Actually, I’m not too sure either. We can indeed borrow the content of the Korean variety show, but the model doesn’t apply to us at all. The reason for their success is that the market is small, and people’s attention is focused near the capital circle. Our country has a vast district, a huge market, and excellent economic conditions. It’s very difficult to form a similar environment…”
The director looked at Chen Che with a burning gaze. “However, 1 see a trace of hope in you, although 1 don’t know if it will succeed in the end.”
Chen Che nodded. “I’ve heard of South Xue and North Zhang.”
He mentioned Xue Qian, who was born in Shanghai, and Zhang Wei, who was born in Beijing.
Both of them used to be singers, but they turned to variety shows and their careers soared again.
“Yes?”
The director waved his hand. “They’re not in the same situation as you. They’re singers to begin with. Even if they become popular through variety shows, they can only reissue albums. In recent years, the music industry has been silent in our country for a long time. It’s hard to predict when it will rise again. Fortunately, we’re young and happened to be in the emerging period of variety shows.”
The director looked at Chen Che seriously. “You don’t have to give up on filming movies and dramas, and no one has the right to make you give up. You came from acting. This is an unchangeable fact.”
Chen Che asked, “Then do you mean for me to focus on my career?”
The director looked at Chen Che firmly. “I just said that it’s not that I’m nurturing you, but I saw the development potential in you. If you have the ability, I’m willing to follow you. I’m not a famous director or planner. I’m only 29 years old this year. Everyone knows that although the ratings of Running Man are high, on the one hand, it borrowed from Korean variety shows, and on the other hand, it’s on the basis of my predecessors.”
After a moment of silence, the director continued, “It’s just that I’m not reconciled to this.”
Chen Che smiled bitterly and said, “Let’s solve the problem at hand first? These are still too far away. I’ve already become the backdrop for the elimination.”
The director looked helpless. “You’re clearly talented and smart. Can’t you be flexible?”
Chen Che frowned and said, “Those guests have already been invited. It’s a little awkward to give me a temporary Quest. Clearly, they’ve already decided not to let me participate. How can 1 be flexible?”
He spread his hands and looked at the director. “How do you want me to leave a deep impression on Planner Chu without any filming time?”
The director was calm. “How can anything be confirmed?”
He looked at Chen Che. “Isn’t the audition film also very short? Didn’t you still perform very well?”
Chen Che said helplessly, “1 have to thank you for this. If you hadn’t given me a chance to believe in my thoughts and Brother Shao and the others’ support, I’m afraid I could only smile at the side. How could I have the chance to stand out?”
He gestured to the director. “The people over there have never heard of me, nor have they started paying attention to me since the first season.. You want them to listen to my arrangements?”
