Thinking back, ever since he got involved in the entertainment industry, regardless of film, television, or song, he had always been successful. There was not a single failure … Tang Jinyan wondered if he could try buying lottery tickets and lie down to collect money. He did not have to rack his brains to come up with any plans.
Just as he was thinking about this, someone knocked on the door looking for Song Ji-hyo.
Turning around, it was Shinsandcave's Tiger, Li Haoyang.
Seeing Tang Jinyan present, Li Haoyang's chubby face was a little embarrassed. He scratched his head for a long time before lowering his head and saying to Song Ji-hyo, "About that, President, EXID's new plan failed."
Tang Jinyan: "…"
Alright, Bro Protagonist, are you here to tell me that I'm not the protagonist and that I don't have luck?
What's the difference between this and slapping me in the face and shouting "wake up"?
Song Ji-hyo did not know what Tang Jinyan was mumbling about. It was normal for girl group plans to have successes and failures. Shinsandcave's Tiger was not necessarily a qualified operator.
She asked calmly, "They've been planning for more than half a year. Everyone was looking forward to it … Have you found out the reason for the failure?"
Li Haoyang was very depressed. "I don't know. I personally think that 'Up and Down' is very good. EXID's quality is also very high. For example, they have intelligence, looks, figure, and singing skills. With our company's platform to promote them, how can they not be popular?
Although their recent releases have clashed with Shaoshi's, it's not a direct clash. Our original intention was to at least gain a foothold even if they were not popular. "
"In the end?"
"In the end, they didn't even make a splash. It's a mess. I don't even know what the problem is."
Tang Jinyan and Song Ji-hyo looked at each other. Both of them were laymen in this area. The most professional person in the company … was Kim Kwang-soo.
Tang Jinyan scratched his head. He suddenly felt that it was quite unreliable, but he did not have any ideas. He could only say, "Have you talked to Director Kim?"
Li Haoyang said, "Director Kim thinks that our promotion is too step-by-step and lacks hype.
These days, the number of girl groups is exploding. Without some publicity stunts, they won't be able to attract attention. "
Tang Jinyan nodded and said, "That makes sense. Why don't you do it?"
Li Haoyang scowled miserably. "Director Jin's method of creating hype is quite unreliable. She hyped up Lu Zhi's experience in CUBE and Hani's experience in JYP. For example, Hani and Sistar's Xiao Lin almost formed a group and debuted together. There were all kinds of grudges between them … Speaking of which, this kind of thing can be used as a topic of discussion after becoming popular.
Ji Yan was forced to marry Kim Tae-hee by him in the early years, and she was made miserable by Anti. How would I dare to play around with her?
Director Jin said with conviction that an anti-fan is also a fan. I always feel that … sigh! "
Tang Jinyan was annoyed and amused at the same time. "A leopard can't change its spots. It's no surprise that Kim Kwang-soo came up with these ideas. He's already restrained himself by not suing more than a dozen media outlets at the same time."
Li Haoyang said helplessly, "Then what do we do now?"
"I'm not an expert in idol operations …" Tang Jinyan pondered for a moment and said, "But things are always interconnected. Since they don't have fame, they can't make a splash. Then let's make them famous.
On the one hand, we can use all kinds of resources to send them to variety shows to make more appearances. On the other hand, we can create hype on the Internet. Let people spread videos of them in the practice room. Let people know about this group first. "
"Fans will only be interested in the practice room videos after they become famous …" Li Haoyang pondered and said, "Why don't we do live videos? Their live performances are very good."
"If live performances are good, then we can spread the live videos.
You can also use some rice clips to highlight your own strengths. Find a rice clip with good dance performance and spread it out. It can make people's eyes light up and ask who this girl is. Then you'll succeed. "
Li Haoyang hesitated for a moment and added, "President, if you're not busy, why don't you go and support them at their debut performance today?
Everyone is very disheartened now, but everyone admires President. If you show up and show support, it will be very motivating. "
Tang Jinyan thought about it and did not seem to have anything to do today, so he agreed. "Where will they perform?"
"SBS, Popular Ballad."
Tang Jinyan agreed. Li Haoyang thought about it and still felt that this plan was not reliable. But now that things had come to this, he could only treat it as a last resort. He sighed and left.
It could be seen that this guy was still quite affected by the failure of his first independent operation. His main character demeanor had also decreased by quite a bit.
"Popular Ballad …" Tang Jinyan muttered. Suddenly, he smiled at Song Ji-hyo and said, "It seems that among all the major stages, this is the only one I haven't seen live. It just so happens that I've made up for it today.
You're the queen of variety shows at SBS. Will you accompany me to watch it? "
Song Ji-hyo rolled her eyes. "I have to film in the afternoon. 'Man and Woman in the Emergency Department' hasn't finished filming yet. Do you really think that everyone is as free as you?"
"How am I free? I've been out of breath for the past ten days or so. It's not easy for me to take a break.
Oh right, speaking of SBS, isn't there a collaborative drama series?
How's the situation? "
"It's also a theme related to doctors. It's called 'Doctor Outlander'. It's already filming and will be broadcast in a while.
When we decided on the theme of doctors, we decided on two dramas. It's not like a certain someone who only thinks of cosplay when she hears about doctors. "
Under Song Ji-hyo's disdainful expression, Tang Jinyan originally wanted to ask if she had brought back the white coat. But now, it was not good to ask, so he could only change the topic. "How's the situation at MBC?"
Song Ji-hyo became excited. "MBC and KBS are competing historical dramas, but KBS crushed them like dogs.
MBC's TV department looked for Long Ya in a very sorry state, hoping to collaborate with us on a drama series to salvage the situation.
It seems that our image of being popular has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. "
Tang Jinyan narrowed his eyes. "It's done.
The opportunity to have a say in MBC has come so quietly … "
Song Ji-hyo reminded him. "Hey, we're not serious about being popular."
Tang Jinyan blinked. "At a time like this, what we want is not necessarily to produce a popular drama."
Song Ji-hyo said in annoyance. "I don't understand your calculations. Can you really use TV dramas to gain power?"
Tang Jinyan smiled. "Even if MBC's directors are the most wary of me, they don't know how many of them are secretly my people.
What we want is an opportunity to do it openly. "
Song Ji-hyo looked at him in a daze. She suddenly thought of the man who was like a philosopher and thought about whether he was clean or not.
Who would have thought that after two years, he was already everywhere in the shadows of Seoul. His silent grin was a fangs that could tear everything apart.
When capital and violence were combined into one, the chemical reaction produced was amazing.
Now, even she could not figure out how much power Tang Jinyan had hidden in his hands.
Even if on the surface, he was always indulging in the land of women.
Song Ji-hyo suddenly felt a little panicked.
How much of him sticking to the girls from time to time was sincere, and how much of it was for others to see, to show that he was harmless and weak?
She wanted to ask, but looking at Tang Jinyan's smiling face, she opened her mouth, but in the end, she did not ask. She only said one sentence. "You should be popular."
