Back to the topic, Representative Cui is indeed an old man from the government. He hit Xie Qianyu’s pain point with one sentence:
Popularity is indeed the biggest problem in his plan. Although he already has a certain fan base in China, his influence on South Korea is close to zero;
Although Park Hyo-min is already well-known in T-ara, and "DreamHigh" has not yet aired, the audience's impression of idols' acting skills is not bad enough.
But compared to Park Min Young, who has already acted in "Funny Family" and won the Newcomer Award for Acting, her ratings appeal is definitely far behind.
So Xie Qianyu also made an appropriate concession: "I understand everyone's concerns. I can make certain compensation for the production costs, and my personal performance fees can also be settled without cash."
Seeing that the person opposite was lost in thought, he continued to strike while the iron was hot: "I don't know how much funding your station can provide, but I am willing to increase your funds to 65 million won per episode. And I will increase the original funds to 65 million won." The scheduled 20 episodes have been increased to 22-24 episodes."
Hearing this, the KBS trio couldn't help but take a breath. After ten years, the average production cost of traditional high-cost Korean dramas such as "Crash Landing on You" and "Hotel Del Luna" will be just over 100 million per episode. And now in 2010, the cost of 65 million per episode is not a small cost, not to mention that they are filming a costume drama with a mature Korean system, and the actors they use are all newcomers who are not well-known.
If such a high production cost is used, then the service and post-production can be brought to a higher level...
After listening to Xie Qianyu's words, Representative Cui realized that he was already at a disadvantage by this boy who was more than one step younger than him (nonsense, you are also at a disadvantage when you meet such a rich man), so he gritted his teeth and made his last request. :
"The production fee is 70 million per episode! I won't lie to you. Now the TV station only provides us with a maximum of 45 million in funding. The entire drama has 22 episodes of complete plot plus a special extra episode. The ending of Diao Chan played by Li Xi will change, and there will be more scenes with the good husband Lee Sun Joon!"
"make a deal!"
Xie Qianyu is very satisfied with the result. Representative Cui has seen that the purpose of his investment is just to make Park Hyomin and Lee Juli famous. Seventy-five million is his base price, and the current cost of the whole drama is less than 600 million won. To the AMG SLS he just bought.
The negotiations were completed in a few rounds of pushing and exchanging cups. Lin Mingshu will naturally go to KBS with Representative Cui tomorrow to study a series of subsequent issues such as overseas export copyrights.
----------------------------------------
T-ara on the other side is in a bit of a bad situation at this time. They have already made four trips today and are filming a song video at their last destination.
Originally, I just had to do a simple dance, chat and joke with the host, and then I could complete the trip and go back to the dormitory to rest. But unfortunately, Quan Baolan's weak body can no longer bear it...
Logically speaking, in this time and space, she has been taking precious Chinese medicines given by Xie Qianyu for several years. When her parents divorced, Xie Qianyu was there to comfort her. She lost weight with the help of a top-notch nutritionist and reasonable exercise. Her body is better than that of her in parallel time and space. Even if it’s ten times higher, I don’t know.
But maybe the gene for anemia and weakness can never be eradicated. Today is another day when a friendly relative of Bao Lan comes to visit this month. Recently, due to the loss of the opportunity for a special drama and the suspected appearance of Xie Qianyu, his work and rest have been irregular for a few days.
Today's busy schedule became the last straw, crushing the girl.
Seeing Bao Lan whose lower abdomen had begun to twitch unnaturally, the members of the group were all worried. In fact, since today's running, everyone except a certain demon who is paddling has been relying on willpower to support himself.
But Bao Lan found that it was obvious that she was no longer a symptom that could be overcome by willpower. She fell to the ground directly after the last dance. If Zhi Yan behind her hadn't supported her in time, she would have been in the hospital with a head injury.
Seeing Baolan's eyes becoming a little distracted but still trying to persevere, Enjing couldn't stand it anymore. The eldest sister, who was also the current captain, temporarily fell down, and she, the former captain, consciously took on the important responsibility.
Let Jiyan and the other sisters take care of Baolam first, and she went alone to negotiate with the PD in charge of filming at the scene.
"PDnim, Baolan's situation is really bad right now. Could you please...pause the shooting...for ten minutes? Is that okay?"
Enjing bit her lower lip. After struggling, she only dared to apply for ten minutes of rest time for Baolan.
The fat PD said with obvious dissatisfaction: "You little bitch, do you know what time it is? Do you want all the staff to accompany you to endure it! Who do you think you are? Lee Hyori is still a girl era?"
Then he made his small mung bean eyes, which are common among Korean men, a little smaller, looked up and down Eunjing's pretty face, and said lewdly: "Although the man is a little angry, he is still an idol. If you can accompany me, If I stay overnight, let alone ten minutes, I will stay with you even if the filming lasts until tomorrow morning, hahahahaha."
When Xian Eunjing heard such obscene words, she almost couldn't help but give it a try, but her many years of acting career made her understand that the on-site PD had supreme power during filming. If she dared to do it because of this gangster, If you beat someone for verbal harassment, tomorrow's hot search will definitely be "T-ara's former leader beats someone on the spot."
It's absolutely terrifying how many antis the entire Crown Group will have by then. It doesn't matter if she feels a little wronged, but if she ruins the future of her sisters because of her impulsiveness, she may feel guilty for the rest of her life.
At this moment, she missed that man so much. Whenever she acted coquettishly, she would find a way to get stars for her from the sky, but he had disappeared for more than five years.
Ham Eun-jeong, who has lost her support, is not weak. The resilience in her heart secretly tells her that everything is for T-ara.
Clenching her back molars and resisting the urge to hit, Enjing's tone became weaker by three points: "Please PDnim, Baolan's situation is really serious. We will apologize to all the staff after the filming."
The one who responded to her was the obscene voice of the on-site PD: "Haha, Eunjingxi, if you don't want to, just let the little man lie there by himself. The six of you can just finish the filming. But I will follow you, President Jin." If you report it truthfully, I don’t know whether half or all of the salary will be deducted. Either others will continue filming now, or let the underage child get up on his own. There is no third way."
There were tears in Eunjing's eyes when she returned, but she knew that she was now the backbone of the team, so she swallowed back her tears and went to find other members.
----------------------------------------
Quan Baolan now hates her own fragility extremely.
When I was a child, I was physically fragile, and my parents spent more energy taking care of me than on my sister. When I grew up, I was mentally fragile. If Xie Qianyu hadn't been with me when my parents divorced, I would have collapsed and contemplated suicide. After joining the team, I was the shortest. , has been ridiculed as a dwarf and drags down the beauty of the team's formation...
She was sad to lose the opportunity of the special drama, not because of the loss of her own salary or personal schedule, but because of the loss of T-ara's popularity as a whole.
Seeing her three younger sisters' acting careers going smoothly, she was envious of the blessings but not jealous. She just hoped that she could do the same.
Although a small special drama may not be seen by many viewers, and it is insignificant compared to the popularity attracted by the two youngest members, Hyomin and Jiyeon, but she really wants to do something for the group, even if it is just Letting T-ara's name appear on TV for one more second would also alleviate the guilt that this eldest sister seems to be a drag.
so tired....
I don’t know how many years have passed since this fake maknae, who looked like a lolita but was a big sister at heart, had this tired feeling of world-weariness again.
She has been very happy after joining the group, as if she has five more family members, especially Eunjing. When they miss Xie Qianyu, at least they have someone they can talk to each other about.
But now, everyone was surrounding him. Only he, who was lying on the chair, turned his face sideways and could clearly see Enjing begging the ugly PD for her through the gap in the crowd.
She felt pain in her heart, which was even more severe than the twitching pain in her body. She struggled to get up and completed the shooting while nearly unconscious.
When the filming was completed, Quan Baoran, who persisted to the end with only willpower, fell straight back. Before she fell, she saw Eun-jung and Ji-yeon rushing towards her, and the final film was completed. The shots of her are almost useless, but at least - the final group photo still shows her in sapphire blue.
----------------------------------------
Xie Qianyu is very conflicted now. He has left the filming and office preparations to Lin Mingshu, but he still doesn't feel comfortable leaving it to anyone except himself regarding T-ara.
The lessons of blood and tears of countless Korean entertainment novel predecessors told him that if he has a weakness, he must firmly hold all the contracts for that weakness in his own hands, and it is obvious that T-ara is now his last and biggest weakness.
If he doesn't keep the contract of Liu Niu in his own hands, when the news of his return spreads throughout South Korea, the enemies will definitely target this wound and the situation will become very difficult.
After much thought, he still made a call...
"Ah you yohasse..."
"So you haven't thrown away my daughter's business card yet, Master Xie?" Before Xie Qianyu could finish his greeting, a female voice full of resentment interrupted him.
Xie Qianyu's hair suddenly stood up. As the saying goes, "it's the hardest to bear the kindness of a beautiful woman." Even a scumbag like him can't stand the resentment of the women around him. It may be a good thing to be missed by a woman, especially a beautiful woman, but when there are too many, it is not a pleasant thing.
"Li Wangyue xi, haha, I wish I could have the contact information of a beautiful woman like you engraved on my heart for three lifetimes."
What he said made him feel a chill, and he hurriedly recited "Everything is for T-ara" in his heart three times before he dared to speak again, "It's not because we are afraid of calling a sexy girl on the first day we know each other. Looks very Meng Lang."
The author said: No matter how crude a love sentence is, when it comes from a handsome man, it will appear so lethal.
Facts have proved that what this person called the author said makes sense all the time. At this time, Li Wangyue was smiling as if she was in first love in front of the phone, and her complaints turned into jealousy: "Humph, the dignified grandson Xie Xie would also use this kind of thing." Are you lying to a little girl? You want to chase me? Okay, come to Ewha Womans University tomorrow to see me and give you a chance."
Li Wangyue's words didn't shock Xie Qianyu's jaw - I mean, she's already in college? ?
That's right. With her figure, I would believe her even if she said she had just given birth. No, that doesn't seem to be the point...
Holy shit! Ewha Womans University? ?
