Time slowly passed, and dozens more guests gradually appeared in the wedding hall, some of which were artists. After seeing Zhang Chengyuan, Cheng Yuli, and Li Zhen, most of them came over to salute and greet them. After all, Zhang Chengyuan is now in the entertainment industry. He has a very high status in the film, and Li Zhen and Cheng Yuri are also seniors who have been in the industry for many years. To these people, Zhang Chengyuan and the other three mostly just responded politely and courteously, and were not close to them. After all, they were not acquaintances. However, there are also some artists that they pay a little more attention to, such as the current first-line girl group Kara. Of course, the reason why Zhang Chengyuan and the three of them pay attention to them is not their status in the music industry, but because Nicole Zheng in Kara has appeared in the variety show "Heroes" with Li Zhen and Li Ji-eun, and she is especially with them. It was Lee Ji-eun who got along well; and Goo Hara had starred in "Invincible Youth" with Sunny, Kwon Yuri, and Park Sun-young, and their friendship was not bad, and she had contact with Jang Sung-won when he went to visit the class one time. In addition, Kara's youngest Jiang Jiying and Crystal are both members of a friend group of five idol female singers born in 1994, and they are also good friends. And with these connections, Zhang Chengyuan and the other three naturally looked at Kara differently. However, even if they looked at them differently, Zhang Chengyuan and the other three would not get too close to them. They only chatted with them for two or three minutes and then motioned for them to leave. After all, there was no need to make further acquaintances with them for the time being, and today's occasion was not suitable. . After watching kara leave. Cheng Youli suddenly asked: "Cheng Yuan, haven't our JSW company been attracting excellent artists in the past few years, but at the beginning of last year, Kara wanted to terminate the contract with the agency. Why didn't you take action? Kara is a popular group, so it should be able to Does it catch your eye? " Zhang Chengyuan said: "Kara is indeed good, and it catches my eye, but if I asked Ji Soo to send someone to sign them last year, I would definitely offend their agency DSP Entertainment, and DSP Entertainment is yours It can be said that the four former brokerage companies have helped you, and I have also accepted their friendship. So I don¡¯t want to be against them. In addition, I don¡¯t want our company JSW to have the reputation of poaching. In order to avoid resistance from peers, I asked Jisoo not to get involved in this matter. Otherwise, it would be easy to sign kara based on the situation last year. "At the beginning of last year, four members of kara almost completely fell out with DSP and almost went to court. , and looking for a powerful agency to sign them. If Zhang Chengyuan really took action at that time, I am afraid that they would hit it off. After all, JSW Company¡¯s strength and generous remuneration are well known in the entertainment industry, and DSP Company has absolutely no choice but to do so. Swallowing the bitter fruit secretly. "Chengyuan, it turns out that you really did this because of us. The four of us had this speculation last year. Well, it's right for you to do this. We don't want you to have any conflict with DSP. But if Kara's contract After the expiration, if you go to sign them, it should be fine. "Compared to dsp company, Cheng Yuli and Li Zhen naturally prefer Zhang Chengyuan in their hearts, and although dsp company has promoted them in the past, they are still in dsp company. Those years in the company also made them a lot of money. It's considered repaying their kindness, so they don't actually owe them anything. After all, the relationship between the agency and the artist is just a cooperative relationship. Zhang Chengyuan thought for a while. Said: "Sister, let's talk about this later. Who knows whether Kara will be as popular as it is now in a few years? And it is said that their current contract expiration dates are different, so it is almost impossible to sign them at the same time. "Maybe." "Then they have to sign one by one. With the support of our company, they may not be able to succeed on their own. By the way, le's contract will expire in more than a year, and she has vague plans to leave DSP." , Zhi En and I will go talk to her and we should be able to get her to join our company," Li Zhen said. "And Jiang Zhiying can ask Crystal to invite. In fact, among kara, I think Jiang Zhiying should have the best qualifications, and she is the youngest and is easy to train." Cheng Yuli also came up with an idea. Zhang Chengyuan smiled and said: "Sister, your idea is good, but this is a matter for the future, we will talk about it later." "That's fine, we will talk about it later." In fact, they just talked about this topic afterwards, and did not care about Kara. Not really taking it seriously. After a while, the wedding officially started. Lee Hyori took the stage to give a speech and guided the wedding process. Her words were appropriate and capable, and her unique refreshing and humorous tone made the guests in the audience burst into laughter from time to time. The atmosphere was high. Very active. Zhang Chengyuan is not surprised by this. Although it is the first time for Lee Hyori to host a wedding, she has hosted some variety shows and was well received. She also performed extremely well in the popular program "The Birth of a Family" a few years ago. Not bad, and with a free-spirited personality and no stage fright, it is normal for her to perform well tonight. ?Then the bride and groom entered the venue, witnesses witnessed the marriage, exchanged ringsthe wedding banquet began,The newlyweds toasted, sang congratulatory songs, etc., all proceeding in an orderly manner. However, compared to the process of Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Yuli's wedding last year, it was obviously much simpler, but it was good, and it would not be too time-consuming. Zhang Chengyuan felt that his time was precious , didn¡¯t want to waste too much time here, so soon after waiting for Ok Joo Hyun to sing the congratulatory song, he took Sung Yuri and Li Zhen to bid farewell to Ji Zhonghua, but Ji Zhonghua did not stay. As for Lee Hyori and Ok Joo-hyun, they continued to stay and planned to go back after the wedding was completely over. This was because their friendship with Ji Jong-hwa was much deeper. After leaving the wedding scene, Zhang Chengyuan and the other three took the car home. On the way, they couldn't help but talk about the wedding just now, and then thought of the wedding of Li Zhen and Zhang Chengyuan's doppelg?nger Cui Yuanfeng that will be held in the second half of this year. When talking about this matter, Li Zhen was still a little reluctant, but knowing that he couldn't make Zhang Chengyuan change his mind, he didn't say anything. Cheng Yuli was teasing her. I want her to have a baby soon and experience the hardships of being a pregnant woman. In addition, Sung Yuri also said that during Li Zhen's pregnancy. She will also try her best to put down her work and take care of Li Zhen, just like Li Zhen did to her. While chatting and laughing, the three of them returned to Zhang's Villa. Since they hadn't seen each other for a few days, the battle was particularly intense that night, and they waited for Lee Hyori and Ok Joo-hyun to return. Zhang Chengyuan was also dragged in, so it became even more passionate and joyful. But this joy is also the end of Zhang Chengyuan¡¯s leisurely life. Starting from the next day, he devoted himself to the preparation of his new TV series "Ghost". In order to be able to film this TV series well and obtain a ratings of more than 20% in the current situation where the overall ratings of TV series are gradually declining, in order to maintain its reputation of "ratings guarantee". This time Jang Sung-won did not leave the pre-shooting preparations completely to his assistant, director Lee Yun-jung and other staff like he did last time when filming "The Best Love". Instead, he personally led and instructed them to handle these things so that they can As good as it gets. Of course, doing this will definitely make the production cost of the TV series much higher than usual, but he doesn't care about this, as long as the money is put to practical use and can improve the quality of the TV series. In addition, he also spent a lot of time discussing the script of the show with the screenwriter of the show, Kim Eun-hee. Anyone who knows him knows that. He has always paid great attention to the scripts of TV series, believing that it is the most important factor in whether a TV series can be successful and whether it can obtain high ratings. But now the overall ratings of TV series have deteriorated. Naturally, he paid more attention to it and hardly dared to be careless. Therefore, whether it is the main plot or every word in the script, he must strictly examine and evaluate it carefully, completely eliminate some things that may undermine the audience's enthusiasm for viewing, and let the screenwriter Jin Eunxi revise and create again. Until he was satisfied, this virtually increased Jin Eunxi's workload. It made Jin Enxi very annoyed. But because Zhang Chengyuan doubled her salary and provided a special tea that could quickly restore her spirit and energy, and because Zhang Chengyuan was always known for his discerning judgment in judging TV drama scripts, she tolerated it. However, if the ratings of this TV series are not good in the future, then she may never want to cooperate with Zhang Chengyuan again. Because I am too tired and have too little creative freedom. In terms of casting arrangement, the male lead is naturally Zhang Chengyuan himself, while the female lead is Li Yeonxi, which is what he promised to her before. In addition, in order to make Lee Yeon-hee's performance more brilliant and easier, he not only sent his clone to coach and train her in acting, but also asked screenwriter Kim Eun-hee to portray the heroine's image and personality as close to Lee Yeon-hee himself, and added There are many plots and scenes that can highlight the charm of the heroine, so that she can show her full potential and gain more love from the audience. As for other actors, Zhang Chengyuan also attaches great importance to selecting them personally, and only looks at whether the actor's acting skills and image are qualified for the role, regardless of the actor's background, that is, regardless of whether these actors are from his own company or which company they are. As long as he has a good relationship with the agency, he will not allow them to star in this drama as long as they do not meet his requirements. Of course, he is not completely unkind. He will still hand over some insignificant small roles to jsw's own young artists and trainees, or to some affiliates of other companies, but not many artists will compete for such small roles. For the sake of acting, in the end most of them were given to some extras, which could save a little money. As for the broadcast of this TV series, he gave it to SBS TV station, one of the three major TV stations, instead of his own JSW TV station. The reason is naturally for the sake of ratings. After all, JSW TV station is a cable pay TV. If it is allowed to broadcast this TV series, So, no matter how exciting this drama is, its ratings are only a little over 5%. How can it maintain its record of "each TV series has a ratings of more than 20%"? Although the cable TV station¡¯s 5% ratings are also very impressive, after allIt is impossible for more Korean audiences to see him, which may affect his popularity. This is not what he wants to see, so his future TV series will still only be broadcast on the three major wireless TV stations. As for which one of the three major TV stations to choose, he doesn't really mind. Anyway, the effect is similar. The reason why he chose SBS TV station this time is that the conditions they gave are better and the broadcast schedule is more suitable. (To be continued)
