Chapter 485 Meeting with FNC

Zhang Pingan has been running back and forth between various TV stations for two consecutive days. The progress of the program team is quite fast. The efficiency, coupled with the impatience of Koreans, is to speed up, speed up, and speed up again. So after they made a decision with Zhang Pingan, they quickly started to implement it. Besides, the efficiency of the Korean entertainment industry is very fast, because "overtime" is the norm for everyone in the Korean entertainment industry.

However, the Chinese entertainment industry has an eight-hour working time agreement for artists, so the working group plans according to the eight-hour process every day. There is no eight-hour limit in the Korean entertainment industry. The program team started working as hard as possible at the beginning, and they have been continuing this work efficiency. This is also the main reason why the Korean entertainment industry moves faster than China.

Zhang Pingan is really satisfied with the speed of SBS venue construction. Of course, such a stage background is basically buckled with plates, and then PVC spray painting and light boxes are used for decoration. Except for the LED large screen, the background is basically like that. This is a program that is produced for one season, so the background is composed in the cheapest way, as long as it does not break down in these few months.

From the stage construction, we can see why it costs 500 million won for idols to produce an album each time, because album production includes stage design, and each TV station has a different stage style, and the use of these building materials is paid by the agency. Do you think the TV station does not charge, or even pays you to build the stage? Are you dreaming? Even if you use the same stage background for each TV station, will the workers who build the stage for you not charge?

Remember, idols have to pay to perform on stage! !

When I ran to SBS TV station that day, I happened to receive a call from FNC representative Han Shenghao, who asked me to have lunch with him at noon today. After Zhang Pingan agreed to the invitation, he laughed when he hung up the phone. It must be that the last time AOA's agent met Zhang Pingan by chance, he said that she was not qualified to discuss cooperation with him, so she turned around and contacted the representative of her company.

I have to say that the AOA agent is still very responsible, at least she has made a lot of efforts for her group. When an artist becomes famous, there will naturally be work coming in, but what about those people in the same group who are not famous? It depends on the agent to work hard to promote.

Zhang Pingan did not explicitly refuse to cooperate with them that day, but just told her that she was not qualified to discuss cooperation, so she turned around and told her representative. Such an agent is working hard for his children, so when the FNC representative called to invite him, Zhang Pingan agreed.

Last December, their FNC went public and started the first round of making money in the stock market with AOA's "Catwalk Light and Pretty". However, Zhang Pingan really looked down on his profit, because this agency did not make as much as Zhang Pingan's live broadcast platform.

.......

Nanshan,

There is a restaurant specializing in Korean set meals, and Zhang Pingan was invited to this restaurant. This is a restaurant that often appears in variety shows or TV dramas. The decoration style of the store continues the ancient color of Gyeongbokgung Palace at the foot of the mountain. The entire restaurant is a courtyard series. The private rooms in the courtyard are one Korean house building after another, and each private room is separate, and the distance is a bit far.

Zhang Pingan was led into a private room by a lady in hanbok. This was a very traditional Korean house. Before entering this private room, you had to take off your shoes. After she pushed open the door of the private room, Han Shenghao, who had been waiting inside, stood up from the mat and smiled, and stretched out his hand to Zhang Pingan from a distance.

Zhang Pingan shook hands with him, and Han Shenghao smiled and said, "Hello, PD Zhang, I am very honored to have you here today."

Zhang Pingan smiled and responded, "Hello, Representative Han."

Han Shenghao stretched out his hand to guide Zhang Pingan to take a seat, and at the same time he turned to the lady in hanbok at the door and said, "You can arrange to serve the dishes." After saying this, he smiled and said to Zhang Pingan, "Let's eat and talk."

"Okay." Zhang Pingan had been to this restaurant before, but he personally didn't like it very much, because this traditional Korean restaurant is a cushion, and diners need to sit cross-legged. If you come to dine with friends, you can sit more casually, but at this time, with a sense of negotiation, it seems indecent to sit with legs stretched out.

There was no other way, Zhang Pingan could only sit cross-legged on the cushion. After he sat down, Han Shenghao motioned him to have tea. Because it was a set meal, everyone had their own dining table, and there was a pot of tea on the table.

Zhang Pingan poured himself a cup of tea, barley tea, which was a bit like buckwheat tea. In fact, it was just barley that was roasted and soaked in water!

It was not bad to drink a cup of hot tea in winter. After drinking a cup, Zhang Pingan smiled and took the initiative to say: "I met the agent of AOA at KBS last time. She is a very hardworking person."

Han Shenghao smiled hypocritically and said: "I heard her report last time. She said she met you at the TV station. I just hope she didn't act too rude."

Zhang Pingan continued to drink tea while saying: "No, and how can the agent promote his own children if he is not thick-skinned? I understand their work better."

Han Shenghao smiled and finally began to ask slowly: "I heard that the 'Mamamu' girl group is from your company?"

"Well, after watching their debut performance in August last year, I thought they were talented, so I bought their entire company. Although they are not well-known yet..."

Just as Zhang Pingan was talking about popularity, Han Shenghao smiled and interrupted: "How could they not be well-known? Uncle Hei, didn't he come out to recommend them? Some time ago, 'Mamamu' has been on the hot search list, and it even topped the hot search list. How can this be called not well-known?"

Zhang Pingan smiled and took another sip of tea and responded: "The hot search number one, it's not like I got The trophy for the first place in the song promotion. Don’t those who have bad news often appear on the hot search list? So I think the hot search is not as practical as the ‘first place’ trophy. ”

Han Shenghao said: “But many people now know the group ‘Mamamu’. And yesterday, the recording of “Immortal Songs” was held, and I heard many singers who came out on the scene praising ‘Mamamu’. They won two games this time, and this is the first time that a female idol group has won two games in “Immortal Songs”. ”

Because every guest performer in “Immortal Songs” is very good at “fighting”.

And Mamamu participated in the competition as a group, not a lead singer of a certain group. They are a group. If one of them does not perform well on the scene, it will affect the whole team. And they can win two games among many excellent singers, which is enough to show their overall group strength. As Uncle Hei described, they are a monster-level girl group!

The TV program is recorded, so the recording results have been out for a long time. As a representative of the agency, it is easy for him to inquire about the performance of Mamamu on the spot. If he wants to confirm it with his own eyes, he can even ask someone to watch the recording on the spot.

Mamamu, the strength shown by this girl group, plus the resources behind Zhang Pingan. They are destined to soar. Even if they want to use some tricks to suppress them at this time, they are still a new group that has just debuted. What black material can be dug out of them?

And after the TV broadcast, their strength is obvious, so the girl group Mamamu really can't stop them from becoming a big trend.

This year's girl group competition year, plus Zhang Pingan's relationship with the TV station, will really bring a lot of resources to Mamamu, which may be something that even FNC can't compete with.

In the current big trend, AOA only looks at Choa, but doesn't Choa also have a Hani who can be compared with her? To put it bluntly, there are too few members of the AOA group who can bear the market share, which is also the main reason why Han Shenghao came forward to discuss cooperation with Zhang Pingan.

Zhang Pingan was listening to Han Shenghao talking about the performance of "Mamamu" yesterday. Zhang Pingan smiled and said, "Not bad. I was attracted by the strength of the four of them. As for their appearance, they are far behind AOA. Girl groups still need to have good looks."

When Zhang Pingan finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and the Korean set meal dishes were served one after another. The copper utensils and the colorful ingredients made the Korean meal look quite exquisite.

Zhang Pingan's personal dining table was soon filled with plates and dishes. Korean set meal lacked a sense of artistic conception compared to Japanese Kaiseki, and lacked a sense of refinement compared to Chinese palace cuisine. After the dishes were full on the table, Han Shenghao invited Zhang Pingan to eat. Zhang Pingan picked up a piece of roasted Korean beef and put it in his mouth without hesitation..

After the door of the private room was closed, the two had a simple meal for a while, and Han Shenghao spoke up: "PD Zhang, the future of Mamamu is optimistic by many people. First, you discovered their strength with your keen eyes, and then Uncle Hei recommended them. They will definitely be very good in the future."

Zhang Pingan responded: "In fact, there were many powerful girl groups in the past, but now the market's requirements for strength are not so high. Everyone first pays attention to whether they are beautiful? Or whether there are the types they like in the group, so the strength shown by Mamamu is a bit unique. However, AOA will definitely develop well in the future. Think about it, A.S. used to have UIE, and now has NANA. Isn't it always remembered by everyone?"

Han Shenghao shook his head and said: "One person can't support a group. Isn't Hyun-A the best example? Oh, and JYP's Suzy, these are all one person supporting a group, and the final result is that the "group" still has to break up."
