The Rise of Korean Entertainment

The three of them stood on the stage at the door, pouting at the crowd taking pictures below, but they still didn't want to show their backs, so it would be nice to take a front-on shot.

It's just that the reporters and fans below didn't do it. They kept shouting: "Turn around!" "Get closer" and "Hold your shoulders!"

Li Menglong seemed as if he didn't hear anything. He just held his hands and dropped them naturally, then turned slightly. As for the so-called requirements, Li Menglong could only say that it would be good if he could come today, and don't expect him to do too much.

Liu Zaishi and Liu Zaishi had similar thoughts. Usually they would not be so tough with the media and fans, but today they were not in a good mood. In addition, after seeing Director Luo, they thought of the scene in Paris. It was rare that they could make the decision. , How can I give Director Luo a good look?

Director Luo came up and pretended to give some advice, but when he saw the eyes of the three of them looking at the air, Director Luo also sighed secretly. It was not him who arranged this event today, nor was he the one who organized such a grand press conference. I want to please the three of them. After all, Director Luo still wants to have a chance to do a second round.

In fact, there were only a few hundred people in the audience. It was just that the venue was small, so it seemed like there were more people. As for reporters, there were really many reporters. On the one hand, they are interested in the appeal of Liu Zaishi and the other three, and on the other hand, SW’s current status and face.

Although SW is a complete junior in terms of its development years, it has already begun to take shape, especially unlike pure singer companies like S*M or JYP, SW's industry divisions are more even.

Maybe the singing industry alone can't compare with some old entertainment companies, but adding all the subsidiaries, SW can already be qualified to impress people.

Of course, these are not things that Li Menglong has to worry about. Besides, the number of reporters coming has nothing to do with him, and he doesn't rely on popularity.

As for the press conference itself, it is only for movies and TV series. Generally speaking, singers who release regular albums will also receive this treatment, so among the three of them, Liu Jae Suk has never seen such a scene.

"What are you going to do for a while?" Liu Zaishi asked curiously. After all, there are so many things to remember, so it would be bad to be embarrassed.

"I'm just asking questions about this show, and then maybe Director Luo will come forward to explain it, and finally put a trailer or something." Li Menglong thought for a while and said: "But this is the process of a movie. As for variety shows, I will I don’t quite understand.”

In fact, Li Menglong had guessed pretty well, or Director Luo couldn't come up with any new tricks. The three of them were making gestures and movements in accordance with the reporter's requirements. This was another staged shot, just to let them Turning around was simply impossible.

The three of them plus Director Luo were the main force in today's press conference. After everyone took their seats, the reporters in the audience were a little confused about what to ask. After all, this was the first time for everyone to hold a variety show press conference.

"How about I complain first?" Li Menglong asked in a low voice, which was regarded as a solution to the silence of the scene.

"To put it simply, this show is a scam. A wretched and bad-faith director deceived three honest, reliable and honest people. In short, our life in Paris is very miserable!" Li Menglong concluded with some exaggeration.

However, the reporters still liked this, and with Li Menglong’s words at the bottom, the reporters had more questions to ask, and the scene slowly became lively.

As for the questions, they were of all kinds, and some were quite conventional and were left to others to answer. Li Menglong specifically picked out the weird questions to answer.

"Excuse me, will you three and Director Luo still be friends after this incident?"

"That's a good question. Which newspaper is it from? It's very in-depth." Li Menglong poked his head out and looked at Director Luo on the other side of the long table, who was wiping the sweat from his forehead with some guilt: "I can only say this , after this show, I didn’t receive an apology from the director team. Don’t they know how much damage they caused to us in Paris during this period?”

"But there's one thing to say. After receiving this money, you are naturally responsible for the program, and you deserve to suffer some pain."

Li Menglong almost thought that this reporter was hired by Director Luo. Otherwise, how could he be so eager to clear Director Luo's name? In fact, Li Menglong was overthinking it. He just had a sense of justice.

However, this problem made the three brothers thoroughly reflect on one thing. From the beginning to the end, no one seemed to have mentioned the acting fee to them at all. Don't say that a trip to Paris plus the thousand euros was the reward.

Although he didn't value the money, if Director Luo dared to say that, Li Menglong would dare to fight Director Luo on the spot. He was not such a bully.

Fortunately, Director Luo was well prepared, and he even wondered whether he would give the reporter a red envelope privately: "This variety show itself is an experiment, so the remuneration is also the same. The three of them will equally share 50% of the income from this variety show. I personally promise that their guaranteed income will be at least 500 million, and if it is not enough, I will personally make up for it.”

Director Luo finally said something decent this time. Yoo Jae Suk is naturally one of the top earners among Korean hosts. The average recording of a program is about 15 million to 20 million.

If one episode of the program is recorded for one day, it means that Liu Jae Suk's average income for one episode or one day this time is at least 50 million, which is finally worth the three people's hard work.

In fact, money is not that important at least to these three people now. Director Luo can offer this sky-high price mainly to highlight his recognition of the three brothers, both in terms of results and hard work.

So this attitude is still worthy of recognition. Besides, if the ratings are low, how can the three of them have the face to take the money? It is estimated that they will return it to Director Luo in the end. Therefore, Director Luo is the smartest person. Who let He is a director.

There were all kinds of questions. Fortunately, except for Jin Zhong, the four of them were also very talkative. They didn't talk too cheerfully with reporters. In the end, the backstage staff couldn't stand it anymore and actually released a preview of this variety show.

It was also the first time for Li Menglong and the three of them to watch this trailer, so they all turned sideways and stared at the projection wall on the side: the picture was completely dark at the beginning, and the only sound that seemed to be blown by the wind could be heard.

Then, like typing on a computer, the words finally appeared on the screen: What is youth? For us, youth is a journey that can be taken at any time!

Then the screen was divided into three equal parts. The photo of Li Menglong appeared first on the left, when he was riding a bicycle and turned around to call someone; the photo of Kim Jong Kook also fell on the right, which was a photo of him playing basketball in Paris, dripping with sweat; The photo of Yoo Jae Suk in the middle slowly fell down, showing a green grasshopper eating a hot dog on the streets of Paris.

Comparing their feelings, these three photos are all quite handsome, and with some distressing, they are very charming. Liu Zaishi and the other three are rarely satisfied with Director Luo.

It’s just that the turning point always comes so quickly. The photos on the screen slowly fade away, and then the text continues to appear: The travel of youth is destined to lack some funds, so you will sleep on the street, you will not be able to afford a big meal, and you will be in a row. I can’t even sit in the car...

With these words, Li Menglong already knew what was going to happen next. Sure enough, the series of tragic scenes of them in Paris made everyone cry when they saw them. The reporters did not expect that these three people would be treated so miserably.

This time the clip was a lot longer, but it finally came to an end, and the words were typed out again: Although the journey of youth is a bit hard, your gains will be worthy of all your efforts. Go find your own youth. Well, this is a story that belongs to a few old men who are still in adolescence - Youth in Flowers!

Make an appointment with you on TVN at 9pm on Friday night to witness a youth that can just go away!

The final background is the back view of four people sitting on the bench, greeting the rising sun together.

Not only were the reporters stunned, but Liu Zaishi and the other three also had to admire Director Luo's editing skills, and of course the creativity itself. A trailer for a variety show is as good as an art movie, how about this!

If the reporter's Q\u0026A just now made everyone feel that this variety show seems to be full of laughter, then this trailer tells them that Director Luo wants to do more.

A variety show that is filmed in advance from beginning to end is already an adventure and innovation; Director Luo also wants to add some emotions to the variety show. To put it simply, Director Luo does not want the variety show to be just all kinds of laughter. , he hopes to convey some perceptions and concepts to all audiences through variety shows.

No one believes, and probably no one can imagine, that the functions of TV series and movies will one day be realized in variety shows. Variety shows are not meant to make everyone laugh. Shouldn’t variety shows also play the role of guidance and education in a subtle way?

Li Menglong and the other three just felt that the filming of this variety show was a bit strange at first. Without Liu Jae Suk's presence, there would probably be very few laughs. Only now do they know what Director Luo really meant.

No matter what the final result is, Director Luo can have this heart and put this idea into action. This behavior itself is worthy of admiration from the three of them. No matter what the final ratings will be or whether they will lose their pants, but the three of them will I personally have absolutely no regrets about this experience with Director Luo.

They stood up silently and walked to Director Luo. They didn't say anything and just put their arms around Director Luo's shoulders. As brothers, they were willing to accompany Director Luo to do these things that might be destined to be fruitless.

Director Luo also felt a little emotional. He had never told anyone about this matter because he felt that he was overestimating his abilities. However, he was really relieved to receive his brother's understanding and support. At least someone recognized him.

The reporters didn't know what to say. Although they felt a little disapproving, and even felt that Director Luo was trying to convince others, but the program hadn't been broadcast for a day, they had to keep these words in their hearts. They had better take pictures first, because then there would be material for swearing.

The three people on the stage turned around for the first time, and the words on their backs were displayed in a row for the first time. Director Luo was the only one facing the camera blankly.

I love you - Director Luo!

In fact, Li Menglong personally feels that it would be more appropriate if the love on his back was replaced by respect or something. This kind of expression is too flattering now. Fortunately, it is not him who is facing the camera. Director Luo must be blushing now, right?
