The Rise of Korean Entertainment

Being forced by Li Menglong, Li Soonkyu could only take out his mobile phone and connect it to the player nearby. Of course, it was a bit showy.

Lee Soon Kyu himself can’t even remember when this song gag started. Anyway, Lee Mong Yong always joked about writing songs, and when Lee Mong Yong himself and Kim Jong Kook came up with the song, the joke reached its peak.

When did Lee Soon-kyu get so angry? Although he has no talent in this area, Lee Meng-ryong can produce a song with a week of non-stop hard work. Why can't she, Lee Soon-kyu?

She summarized herself, and the reason was simply that there was Kim Jong Kook next to Lee Meng Yong, so she pulled Kim Taeyeon over. The two hit it off and took some time to compose music every night despite their busy work.

It is true that hard work pays off, and no one can say whether music is good or bad. Ordinary people can hum a melody at will, let alone two professional singers.

So from various professional perspectives, a song with four different characteristics appeared. The specific feeling is as if a primary school student is writing an essay. What kind of parallels are there at the beginning, quotes from famous people in the middle, and key points at the end...

Even Li Menglong heard the routine. It started with a chorus, and the two of them even came up with some lyrics: up down up down up...

Tapping their feet gently, the characteristics of this chorus are very distinct, or the purpose of the two is very clear. It just needs to be addictive, highly repetitive, able to hum, and have a simple rhythm. This is almost the standard for mainstream Korean dance music.

If the accompanying dance makes people more interested in imitating it, it can be said that a song will do it. But the efforts of Lee Soon-gyu and the two of them don’t stop there.

Just after the chorus, Kim Taeyeon appeared: Hi, this is rap, no rap, no rap, no rap...

It's not that the lyrics are incomprehensible, but the word "Bu La" is what Kim Taeyeon keeps repeating. No one can say a rap like this. Although it's just a demo, the ambition of the two can be seen here, and they know Leave room for rap.

As for the latter part, it’s even more funny. Li Menglong’s most intuitive feeling is that the melody is not like a song at all. Almost the whole section is divided into three sections: paving the way for members who are not good at singing, the lead singer singing high notes, and finally The ending turned out to be a somewhat cute part.

Li Menglong really felt that these two girls had put their heart into it. Although the melody was not very nice, at least the key points highlighted in each part could even be heard by a layman like Li Menglong. However, the patchwork of ingredients was too obvious, which was not what Li Menglong liked. style.

The song ends here. After all, it is not a complete song, but it is okay to call it a song. Li Shunkyu looked at Li Menglong nervously. She had not worked so hard on one thing for a long time. Last time It’s time to do this when you are the king of lol!

"It sounds good, and the characteristics in all aspects are very distinct. Leave it to you or Suzhi and others to use it in the future!" Li Menglong's words simply mean that it can be used as an addition to an album, but if Forget it’s the title song or something.

Although there is a slight difference from the expected answer, Lee Soon Kyu is happy enough. She can actually write songs. Will she have another title in the future - composer Kyu!

But Kim Taeyeon couldn't stand it and pushed her from behind. Who swore that this song was even more popular than Gee? Now people are satisfied with just saying something? The key is that it seems that she, Kim Taeyeon, also contributed a lot.

Lee Soon Kyu also reacted. He burned the bridge after crossing the river. Now he is on the water, so he still wanted to comfort him. He jumped and hugged Kim Taeyeon: "We can write songs now. I will write them for you when you do solo in the future." Songs, songs cost half price!”

"Pay me back? I thought you had to give me money to use your songs!" Even though Kim Taeyeon said this, she was still very happy to be able to write a song. Which singer doesn't want to have the talent of composing?

The interlude ended here. Li Eunxi and the others had almost come to work, so Li Shunkyu was left to enlighten the girls' emotions. After all, the girls were good candidates in every aspect.

Then he walked upstairs by himself. As for Lee Soon Kyu's self-composed music, it was temporarily shelved. However, one of the people present had a thoughtful look in his eyes. Solji said without joking that she felt the quality of the song was not bad!

Although they haven't met for a long time, when everyone sees the leisurely Li Menglong in the busy, they always have the urge to go up and beat him up. Most people don't dare, but there are still a lot of extraordinary people here.

Li Enxi wanted to fight him for her life when she came up, pointing to the corner of her eye: "Look! Look!"

"Eye shit?"

"Crow's feet! I'm just in my early thirties! I actually have crow's feet, and I'm not tired! Don't you know how to blame yourself?"

"You are definitely not lacking love from the opposite sex!" After Li Menglong said this, he hid directly with Director Luo and let Li Enxi calm down first.

Director Luo and others have been helping me when I asked for answers, so it was considered a long time of hard work, so I took a break and recently started planning a new variety show.

But what the hell is variety show in Lee Eun-hee’s eyes? Can you make money? Can you sell peripheral products? TV series and movies are the way to go!

So I don't know how many shady tricks were used. Anyway, Director Luo's variety show plan was shelved again, and instead became the next TV series creation plan. Fortunately, Director Luo's temper is not generally good.

Moreover, Lee Eun-hee acted both soft and hard. Not only did he explain the company's focus at this stage, but he also assured Director Luo that after the TV series ends, the company will concentrate on filming variety shows for him, and anyone and resources can be allocated at will.

But these are not the key points that Li Menglong needs to know. He took out all kinds of weird ideas that the nine girls had gathered in the past few days and threw them at Director Luo: "Take a look, can you make it into a variety show script?"

"Variety show? Do you want to film it yourself?"

"Infinite Challenge, let me help you!" Li Menglong took out the love fruit box prepared by his sister-in-law from Director Luo's bag and ate it without ceremony.

"Let me write the impeccable script? Isn't that too much? We are competitors!"

"How old are you then? You are already the director of a popular TV series. Why are you so familiar with that little variety show PD!" Li Menglong said calmly. At this time, Li Youzhen also came over, and the three of them joined in. We started discussing the idea of ​​this variety show script together.

In fact, the variety show script itself has its own characteristics. It is impossible to do everything in detail. It depends more on the on-the-spot performance of Liu Zaishi and others, but they can create occasions and scenes suitable for their performance.

In other words, these three people can be regarded as straddling the worlds of variety shows and TV dramas. Only then can they easily write about the different characteristics of Wireless Trading Company, which is half variety show and half TV series. But looking at the final creative idea, Li Menglong feels that it has something to do with Infinite Trading Company?

Now that Li Menglong is back, Li Enxi naturally can't let him go. In fact, without Li Menglong, everyone is really worried about each other. Li Enxi's identity alone is not enough to hold the line back. It can be said that Li Menglong is the lubricant of this company.

It was an impromptu meeting, but the discussion was about the company's future development plan. Fortunately, everyone was so familiar with it that they could not be restrained. Li Enxi briefly introduced the company's situation: the LoL team and even Exid's debut plan were just mentioned. After all, these are trivial matters in comparison.

The big thing is naturally in the TV drama production department. One answer has made the company a lot of money. Excluding various dividends and not counting the income that is still being absorbed, the net profit so far has reached a terrifying amount of more than 130 100 million.

This income is not an exaggeration. You must know that their investment in the actors' remuneration alone is 1.6 billion. It is reasonable for a national TV series to increase its net income by more than ten times.

This is still only company-level income. Li Menglong's own remuneration for actors, directors and screenwriters must be paid separately, but he has put it on the company's books, so it can be regarded as continued investment.

So now the company's liquidity has reached a terrifying 15 billion. Although this money seems to be quite a lot, in comparison, it is just like that in the entertainment industry. Even Li Zhien's official report for the year The income is more than that.

So don't think about any big-budget movies, just barely enough to make a popular TV series, the kind with big scenes and famous actors, but Li Eunxi is a little bit resistant instinctively.

Li Menglong also confirmed her idea: "Our company should not take that route. We finally found a way out. I think what we should focus on is the script and the work itself! And the company's brand! Produced by sw It must be a masterpiece!”

Everyone discussed Li Menglong's idea and felt that it was a direction, and it could also avoid many of his own shortcomings: such as no experience in controlling large funds, a relative lack of connections in the entertainment industry, etc.

According to Li Menglong's idea, the company's next work should be based on a good script. As long as the actors are suitable and not big-name, the ultimate goal is to replace the so-called actor effect with the company's brand name.

Of course, this will take a long time and the accumulation of many works. However, although the road is tortuous, the future is still bright, and Li Enxi is not embarrassed to say: Isn't this just accumulating experience in disguise? After accumulating more funds and experience, she will definitely come up with something big.

Now that the direction has been set, the specific actions are simpler. The company has a ready-made theme at hand. Reply 1995 has been written. Is it time for Reply 1997?

"The idea and script are indeed there. Wu Xiuyan and I have been discussing it. If necessary, we can write it out and have a look!" Li Youzhen said with a smile.

"What else are you looking at? If you write it, we will shoot it! This time we will hire less expensive actors and such. With the money saved, we can make the venue and props more sophisticated!" Li Eunxi finally showed her decisiveness in killing. character.

"Then you three will still be filming?"

"I'll forget it, Director Luo and the professor can go together!"

"Professor seems to have written a script recently. He probably doesn't have time!" Director Luo said with some uncertainty.

"Anyway, let's read the script first! But as for the actress, I can help contact Yoona. If the script is suitable, her price will not be very high! She is also famous!" Yoona's request finally worked. No one said anything when Li Menglong mentioned it. Everyone believed in his vision. Besides, Yoona's popularity is no joke.
