After the recording of "Love Letter" was completed, Lee Chung-hee had no very formal work in the remaining three days, that is, no work on the schedule. It can be said that he had complete freedom. Of course, if it were other artists, they would be much freer, but Lee Chung-hee is still a little busy because of his huge industry. He even said that the work of an artist only accounts for half of his life. This is why there are people like Lee Moon-hee managing the company in North America, and people like Jang Dong-guk managing the company in South Korea. He finished recording "Love Letter" in the early morning and rested all morning. In the afternoon, Li Zhengxi went to Empire Entertainment Company. He had basically sorted out the things that he should talk to Zhang Dongguo and the things about the company that he should know about the company in the past few days. He came here today. , came to see the talent show held by the company. Since the end of the last century, S*M Entertainment has started auditions since hot and other groups became popular. There are three fixed auditions, including one in February and March during the winter vacation, one in June and July during the summer vacation, and one at the beginning of school. One in late September and October. The titles are all different. One of them is for professional singing, another is for professional performance, and the last one is comprehensive. Because s*m Entertainment basically focuses on the music industry, professional singing competitions are also s*m. m entertainment company is the most focused. But Empire Entertainment is different, because Empire Entertainment is a truly comprehensive entertainment company, and unlike many celebrity agencies, it has its own production platform for movies, TV, music, and comedy charity programs. Relying on going out to get film appointments and the like. As for the broadcast platform and advertising endorsements, there is no need to talk about this. The big sign of Empire Entertainment is there. It represents the best broadcast platform. Public relations strategies and business interests, therefore, the draft activities starting this year have attracted countless Korean people to participate in the draft. Empire Entertainment not only has auditions in South Korea, but also globally. They are held twice a year, from June to July. Once is New Year December to January. Of course, this temporary global nature is only carried out in South Korea and the United States, and will slowly spread to the United Kingdom, China and other places, but that will take a few years. ??The drafts in the United States and South Korea are different. In South Korea, at the beginning, it is a comprehensive nature, for people who feel that they are talented in a certain aspect. Everyone can come and participate, then. The company will focus on training based on various aspects such as acting, singing, comedy hosting and other abilities. Of course, all comprehensive qualities need to be trained, but there is only a focus. The United States also has such a comprehensive program, but there is no talk show host, only acting and singing skills. Moreover, in terms of singing skills, those under the age of 16 are accepted by Korean Empire Entertainment, while those over the age of 16 are accepted by the Korean Empire Entertainment. Imperial Music Reception in North America. The reason for this is that Empire Music is producing "American Idol" with Fox TV. "American Idol" originated from a British reality show "Pop Idol" in 2001. However, this program has long since disappeared due to copyright. It had been taken by Li Zhengxi a long time ago. Since the establishment of Empire Music last year, there have been too few artists under its banner, so Lee Jung Hee has been planning this matter. In the end, Fox TV station is visionary and grand. Perhaps it can be said that this is a program that was originally bought by Fox, and the other party will naturally fall in love with it even more. Some. Therefore, preparations started at the beginning of this year and are now basically completed. Auditions will officially begin in July and August. Of course, the live TV broadcast will not be until January next year, which is a long time. process, and the finals will be at the end of May. No matter what, this is a big project for Empire Music to reserve musical talents for itself. The North American entertainment industry and the Korean entertainment industry are separated and have never been merged because the cultures of the two countries are completely different, and also because the real big boss Lee Chung Hee has always been in control. Of course, even if Lee Chung-hee is no longer responsible, there will be no merger. It is still a cultural issue, but there will be cooperation. For example, in this draft in the United States, people from here will go over there, and then people from there will Help with some social relations, etc. This result is the most appropriate in Li Zhengxi¡¯s opinion, at least for now. June started, but the publicity and public relations started at the beginning of the year. Registrations began one after another at the end of May, and the initial interviews began at the beginning of June. With the various talents of s*m Entertainment and the accumulation of Empire Entertainment, this work is now being carried out in an orderly manner, and Li Zhengxi does not have too many things to pay attention to. The reason why he came here is to see if there are any names in his mind. If he sees those good seedlings, he can take them down to avoid being snatched by others. If he wants to snatch them back in the future, the price will be much higher. For example, Jang Dong Gun, Cha Tae Hyun, Song Yoona and others all had contracts that were completed this year, and it was easy for them to transfer to Empire Entertainment. However, Jun Ji Hyun and Kim Ha Na's contracts still have some days left, so if you want to terminate the contract, you have to pay a price. . "It would be okay if it was someone else. Kim Ha Neul and Lee Jung Hee are very familiar with each other. She doesn't want to stay in the original company anymore. Lee Jung Hee loves her and can't refuse, so 500 million won is the answer. ¡°He can¡¯t always use his power to overwhelm others, as that will offend others. Fortunately, 500 million won is not much, and for an actress like Kim Ha Neul, it is still worth it. "Why, no one is with me, I'm bored!" Zhang Dongguo watched Li Zhengxi approach his office, deliberately looked outside, and laughed. "I will have no one to accompany me," Li Zhengxi sat down on his table with a smile, and teased: "It's you, my sister-in-law has just given birth to a baby, and she is so hungry and thirsty!" "You are really getting more and more unruly," Zhang Dongguo pretended. He wanted to kick him off the table with his feet and said angrily. Zhang Xizhen gave birth to the baby less than half a month ago, and she was born prematurely. Originally, Li Zhengxi should be able to catch up with her when she came back this time. Naturally, there was nothing that could be done about the premature birth. Of course, this is not really important, as long as Zhang Dongguo is the father. Zhang Xizhen has just given birth to a child, and Empire Entertainment is busy right now. Zhang Dongguo is naturally very busy as well. Although he now has an assistant and a secretary, and there are three people helping him, he has an honest character and will go through many things by himself before he can rest assured. , Li Zhengxi told him this matter many times to no avail. This may be a characteristic of Koreans. Koreans have many family businesses because of this. They believe in themselves more and are more willing to endure hardships and stand hard work. After chatting casually with Zhang Dongguo for a while, the two of them left the office together and went to various companies under the company to check out the talent show. Although movies, TV, and now music are all operated by the companies below, they are all in the same building. There is no need to run more errands. In addition to movies, TV, music, and now comedians and hosts, the company is also organizing a new department. In the future, Lee Jung-hee will develop this department into a company that will master the super variety shows in the Korean television industry. The host, that one, is also very important. "Boss," Just as she arrived at the entrance of the film company, Han Ye-seul and her agent happened to come out. She greeted Li Zhengxi first, smiling, and said: "Last time you said you would treat me to dinner in Los Angeles, but I was at home. I¡¯ve been waiting for a few days. Now, how should you compensate me?¡± Han Ye-seul is from Los Angeles, but she debuted in a modeling competition in Korea. It has only been more than a year since she joined the company. She is very beautiful and has a tall figure, but her acting skills still need to be improved. She is very naughty, probably because she was born in the United States. She and Li Zhengxi are really familiar with each other. It was Li Zhengxi who asked her to join the company first. Then, she and Li Zhengxi were traveling together twice when they returned to the United States. For lively people, it is easy to get close to each other. Lee Chung Hee is young and understands the hardships of artists, so he respects artists very much and does not have too many airs. For them, it is naturally very precious. "Then why didn't you call me? How would I know when you were coming home?" Li Zhengxi also replied with a smile: "I also said that I have been waiting for you in the United States for half a year. I have stayed in the United States the longest this year. , including Christmas.¡± After a meal, she joked: ¡°I was there for Valentine¡¯s Day, and I was single at that time!¡± ¡°Bah, who would believe it!¡± Han Ye-seul pouted coquettishly, ¡°Scarlett Johansson. No more, no more Jessica Alba, Katy Perry, and Nicole Kidman, oh, I heard that Madonna is also quite lonely recently" "Well, you win this time, "As for Han Ye-seul, who doesn't really regard him as his boss, Lee Jung-hee really doesn't have much to do with her, and she doesn't have the docile and calm temperament of Korean women. The film company was very busy. After Li Zhengxi and Han Yeseul said goodbye, they entered. There were a lot of people staying there, including people negotiating contracts, auditioning, preparing props, writing scripts, and taking acting classes. Of course, it also includes some activities of the draft. Because there are so many people participating in the audition, everyone has a lot of work. Even the company's employees can't be busy for the time being. In this case, artists who have just joined the company will have to work as temporary workers. This is a common practice in the Korean entertainment industry. When juniors enter the company, some will twist bags and pour water for their seniors, some will be backup dancers, some will be assistants, etc. In short, if the company has not arranged anything yet, or If you have no plans to debut and are just a trainee, then life will be very hard. ¡°There are all kinds of things to do, and I have to study hard, but I don¡¯t eat well or sleep well. Of course, this does not exist in Empire Entertainment. Empire Entertainment has the best accommodation and food conditions. According to insiders, the accommodation for trainees is comparable to that of the big names in general brokerage companies, and food, It is the best in Korea, better than many high-end restaurants. "However, hard work is inevitable, and study hard is inevitable. This is the purpose of the company, to give you the best, but you have to work hard. If you have poor talent or something else, the company will understand if you work hard. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
