Chapter 288 Proving acting skills
Kim Yu-fan himself didn't know that he had inadvertently made Lee Tae-jun, the chief of the TV drama department of the mbc TV station, so scared and afraid of himself.
In fact, this is also a very special reason. Because of a series of situations and reasons, Lee Tae-jun is afraid of Kim Yu-fan at this time.
After all, Li Taijun is the chief of the TV department of the MBC TV station, or at most he can only be considered a middle-class person in the MBC TV station. However, in terms of TV series, especially in front of screenwriters, directors and actors, Li Taijun is definitely a big shot.
Otherwise, Lee Tae-joon would not have taken Korean-level actors such as Bae Yong-joon and Kim Hee-sun seriously. After all, in a sense, these big stars, screenwriters and directors are just stepping stones that Lee Tae-joon earns his achievements and makes him climb up on the TV station, that's all.
But this time, Lee Tae-joon just met Kim Yu-fan because there is no artist in the entire Korean entertainment industry who can be as special as Kim Yu-fan.
In just two years of debut, he was able to become a recognized top music creation genius, top singer, and top talent singer. In just two TV series, his acting skills were recognized. Because of the success and popularity of "Full House", his talent in TV drama screenwriters received bursts of exclamations and recognition of his talent.
Not only that, breaking the Guinness World Record and the world's first official personal fan has exceeded one million mark, which is even more shocking. You should know that this million refers only to Korean fans, and South Korea has a total population of only 50 million. This shows how terrifying the number Kim Yu-fan, whose million fans are, is definitely a terrifying number in South Korea.
More importantly, there is no artist in South Korea, who has a miserable experience like Kim Yu-fan. Perhaps the entire Korean has a childhood experience like Kim Yu-fan, even worse than Kim Yu-fan. But at least in the entertainment industry, there is really no one in the entertainment industry that is more pitiful and miserable than Kim Yu-fan's childhood.
Similarly, there is no other person in all Korean agencies, whether it is a singer agency or an actor agency, or even TV series and film production companies. They can have absolute freedom and autonomy like Kim Yu-hwan, and can arrange their work at will according to their own ideas and moods.
Similarly, the presidents and representatives of all brokerage companies, basically except Li Haoyan of DSP, have no other presidents and representatives. They would indulge their artists to have so much freedom and autonomy and work and arrange their itineraries according to their own wishes. This is simply unimaginable and incredible in Korea.
After so many years of development in Korean entertainment, there has never been such an artist, but in this way, Kim Yu-fan appeared.
Because of this, and Kim Yu-fan has enough retreat and confidence, and his arrogance and toughness, he can have a calm and peaceful confrontation with Lee Tae-jun without any concessions.
A series of reasons combined make Lee Tae-jun completely afraid of Kim Yu-fan. Otherwise, let alone Kim Yu-fan. Even if Jang Dong-jin and Bae Yong-jun are angry with Lee Tae-jun, Lee Tae-jun's first reaction is to smash the cup in his hand at the other party, and use the ability of mbc TV to start banning and suppressing the other party.
Lee Tae-jun agreed readily, which made Kim Yu-fan stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what was going on. He hadn't strongly expressed his desire to sell his script before. Why has he changed his words suddenly? Why is it so easy to speak?
Unable to figure it out, Kim Yu-fan tried to ask: "So Section Chief Li, how to arrange the filming of the TV series?"
"It's up to you to decide. After all, the success of "Full House" proves that you have this ability. I also hope that you can do the best in everything like the TV series "Full House". I dare not disturb your work. Everything you have the final say is, just ask for filming as early as possible."
Facing Kim Yu-fan's inquiry, in Lee Tae-joon's impression, Kim Yu-fan is a madman character. Lee Tae-joon was completely afraid of Kim Yu-fan and answered without thinking.
"Uh~~~ So what about this director?"
"You decide!"
"What about the actors?"
"You and the director decide, mainly based on your opinions!"
Lee Tae-jun did not think and answered readily, which made Kim Yu-fan confused. He didn't know what was going on, and didn't understand what Lee Tae-jun had plans and how easy it was to speak.
After a while of silence, Kim Yu-fan continued to speak and asked, "Then my personal pay and the copyright fee for the script..."
Before Kim Yu-fan could finish his speech, Lee Tae-joon directly interrupted Kim Yu-fan and said, "Your personal salary is 15 million won per episode. As for the copyright fee of the script, you will share 15% of the profits as mentioned before. You should know that our mbc TV station will never be stingy in this regard. As long as you have the strength and ability, it is worth our generous salary and treatment. Our mbc TV series guarantees that it can satisfy you."
Well, Kim Yu-fan admitted that he was really confused by Lee Tae-joon's inconsistent reactions and attitudes, but he was confused, but for Kim Yu-fan, this was undoubtedly a good thing.
"Okay, let's sign the contract now?"
"No problem!" Li Tae-jun immediately stood up, nodded, and then signaled Kim Yu-fan to wait a moment and prepare the contract by himself. After that, he turned around and flashed quickly.
With Lee Tae-jun's departure, Kim Yu-fan was the only one left in the entire office. At this time, Kim Yu-fan watched Lee Tae-jun leave in confusion, and he was puzzled in his mind. He didn't know what was wrong with Lee Tae-jun.
Could it be that a big shot on MBC TV is covering him, but there is no reason. I have never heard of a big shot on MBC TV with me.
Or the daughter of a big shot on MBC TV is her own fan, which affects Lee Tae-jun. This is possible, but if you think about it carefully, Kim Yu-fan couldn't help but shake his head and smile. It was obviously not realistic. Even if there are such fanatical fans, in the face of the huge MBC TV station, you will do your job in the new TV series in general. At least you must meet certain requirements before you can affect the TV series in small ways.
Just as Kim Yu-bun thought about it but couldn't understand Lee Tae-joon's attitude change, Lee Tae-joon, who walked out of the office, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Damn, Kim Yu-hwan is a lunatic who hides a lot. Such a person can deal with him in the future, but he must do his business. Such a person is not suitable for being friends and must not be offended." Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, Li Tae-jun murmured to himself, and then turned around and left.
Without Kim Yu-hwan sitting in front of him, Lee Tae-joon also regained his usual shrewdness and ability. Although he could not control the crazy man Kim Yu-hwan, he didn't seem to have heard any rumors about the filming of "Full House". Kim Yu-hwan's cooperation with the entire crew is very good, so there shouldn't be too worried.
Well~~~ The age of the male protagonist in the script is a big problem, at least it is not very suitable for Kim Yu-hwan, but if you think about it carefully, what Kim Yu-hwan said is right. As a screenwriter, Kim Yu-hwan knows the whole TV series best.
Besides, let’s take a step back. Even if Kim Yu-hwan is really not suitable for the male lead of this TV series due to his age, at least Kim Yu-hwan still has terrifying popularity and influence. This alone is enough to maintain a high ratings for the entire TV series.
mbc TV station spent a lot of money, even threatening means, forcing Kim Yu-hwan to temporarily give up his new album. Isn’t it just to win the ratings for mbc TV station?
Kim Yu-hwan has millions of fans, which indirectly affects millions of people. This itself is a guarantee of ratings. Even if the role is not very suitable, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, the only thing that TV stations value is ratings.
Thinking of this, Lee Tae-jun breathed a sigh of relief. He thought about the conversation he had just talked with Kim Yu-fan, especially Kim Yu-fan's requirements for the shooting requirements and personal treatment of this new TV series. After confirming that there was no problem, Lee Tae-jun turned around and left and prepared to print the contract.
Half an hour later, Lee Tae-joon appeared in front of Kim Yu-fan again, holding Kim Yu-fan in his personal treatment for the TV series, and also had a screenwriter's interest sharing contract for the TV series.
Because of the previous warning from director Biao Minsoo, Kim Yu-hwan looked at the contract more than ten times carefully. After looking at it, he couldn't tell what was wrong. Kim Yu-hwan immediately frowned.
With director Minsoo's personality, he shouldn't have deliberately deceived himself, but why can't he see any problems or traps in the contract? Is there no trap? No, Lee Tae-jun is not such a kind-hearted person? Could it be that the trap is too deep and he hasn't discovered it?
Thinking of this, Kim Yu-hwan finally tried to propose adding a contract that he seemed to be too over-the-top, which was to ask that the contract be clearly written on it. Everything in this TV series is based on itself.
In fact, Kim Yu-hwan himself felt that this request was too much. If Lee Tae-joon disagreed, then Kim Yu-hwan would not say anything. But what made Kim Yu-hwan stunned was that in the face of his excessive request, Lee Tae-joon nodded in agreement without hesitation. Before Kim Yu-hwan could react, he prepared a new contract to reprint and let Kim Yu-hwan sign his name.
After watching the screenwriter's work on the TV series stipulated in the first article of the new contract, Kim Yu-fan couldn't understand Lee Tae-jun's thoughts and plans. He talked carefully to Lee Tae-jun for a while and confirmed that he would not deliberately cheat him during the funding, broadcasting period and publicity. Kim Yu-fan finally signed his name on the contract in a vague way.
Kim Yu-hwan didn't know how he got out of MBC TV. When Kim Yu-hwan reacted, he found that he didn't know how he returned to his home and was now lying on the sofa in the living room.
After looking at the contract that he had just signed on the table, Kim Yu-fan confirmed it several times, but there was no trap, and he couldn't help but smile.
Damn, I am fully responsible for all the work of TV series, which is a power that even the top Korean screenwriters do not have. The top Korean screenwriters are at most responsible for the filming of TV series, but it is absolutely impossible to be fully responsible for all the work of the entire TV series.
In the Korean entertainment industry, screenwriters have a very high status and great power, because Koreans know very well that whether it is a TV series or a movie, the most important core lies in the script.
Although there are few excellent and top directors, there are still a few. There are also many excellent and top actors who need popularity, box office and acting skills. But it does not mean that top directors and top actors can create a classic high-rating TV series or high-box movie.
After all, it depends on the script. As long as the script is powerful and the quality of the script can be guaranteed, even an ordinary director and a group of actors who are completely newcomers can create a TV series with high ratings or a movie with high box office.
Therefore, screenwriters have a very high status in the Korean entertainment industry. In many cases, the status and power of screenwriters are even before directors, which is particularly obvious in TV dramas.
At least, in terms of TV series, the top screenwriter can basically decide who his own script is responsible for filming. When selecting actors, the director will basically prefer the screenwriter's opinion.
The power of screenwriters is absolutely beyond your imagination. Even the person in charge of a TV station or the producer sent by the production company will basically not offend the screenwriter. To put it bluntly, I dare not offend the screenwriter.
You should know that Korean TV series are usually broadcast while filming. Often, there is only about five episodes in stock. If the screenwriter gets angry and the screenwriter leaves the crew, the TV series will not be able to continue shooting. After the previous broadcast volume is broadcast, there is no one to broadcast.
The screenwriter really left the crew in anger. Then the trouble would be great. The director could not continue filming, and the actors could not continue filming, which would have a fatal impact on their popularity, reputation, and image.
Production companies and TV stations will also suffer huge losses in reputation and interests.
What, what do you say is the screenwriter? What is the reason? The screenwriter left the crew and stopped filming. Obviously, there must be something wrong. Otherwise, the screenwriter would not have left the crew for no reason.
Therefore, screenwriters have a very high status in the Korean film and television industry, especially in the TV series, which is even more obvious.
But even so, the screenwriter usually has the right to inquire and be responsible for his own works, directors, actors, and filming, but it is only the job of a TV series.
What does this fully responsible contract signed by Kim Yu-hwan now mean? It means that Kim Yu-hwan can decide when the TV series will start filming, when the TV series will be premiered, and how and process the TV series will be promoted. This is definitely a power that ordinary screenwriters cannot have.
"Hehe, my buddy is worthy of being the most special one called by the stars. Look, I'm starting to be special now!" He said to himself, with a hint of narcissistic sigh, Kim Yu-hwan then put away his thoughts and began to decide on the formation of the crew.
In terms of directors, Kim Yu-hwan doesn’t have much, and plans to directly let the original director Lee Hyung-min be responsible for the filming of the entire TV series. What’s more, Lee Hyung-min definitely has this strength. The TV series "Sorry, I Love You" was filmed in the hands of Lee Hyung-min, achieving the beautiful shots of the camera and the accurate capture of the characters’ expressions.
For a tragic TV series like "Sorry, I Love You" that is ready to deceive the audience's tears by crazy, the beautiful shots and the expressions of characters are naturally the top priority.
As for actors, Kim Yu-hwan was too lazy to choose, so she just wanted to let Lin Soo-jin play the heroine. As for the major actors, it was natural that Jung Kyung-ho, Seo Ji-young and others continued to play.
As for the issue of the schedule of several major actors, Kim Yu-hwan doesn't care about this and just hand over the list he needs to Lee Tae-joon. Last time, for the heroine of "Full House", Kim Yu-hwan and Cousin-soo were both overwhelmed. Now Kim Yu-hwan doesn't plan to worry about the actors anymore, so he just gives the list to Lee Tae-joon and let Lee Tae-joon take charge of handling it.
After all, Li Taijun, as the head of the TV department of MBC TV station, was really upheld by himself. Li Taijun also determined to ask these actors to participate in the crew of "Sorry, I Love You". I believe the problem is not big.
Thinking of this, Kim Yu-hwan picked up his contract and read it several times, then took the script and read it by himself, without laughing: "My brother has exploded in acting and it's up to you to fully prove his acting skills."
To be honest, Kim Yu-fan's first two TV series were very successful, at least in terms of ratings. Kim Yu-fan also gained recognition from the audience with his acting skills.
But Kim Yu-hwan himself knew that the audience's recognition of his acting skills was based on the success of the two TV series, and it was not really recognized by his acting skills.
"The Success of Cheerful Girls" is entirely supported by Jang Nara. Kim Yu-hwan may occasionally shine in this TV series, but the limelight, at least in terms of acting, was completely suppressed by Jang Nara.
The TV series "Full House" is a relaxed, pleasant and funny comedy style. The style is destined to be the TV series and does not require too much acting skills.
Therefore, Kim Yu-fan's acting skills have been recognized by the audience for the success of the two TV series. However, in the eyes of professionals, it is still a question of how Kim Yu-fan's acting skills are. At least so far, there is no role that needs acting skills to test Kim Yu-fan's acting skills.
But now the male protagonist of this TV series, Cha Wu Hyuk is definitely a very good character, especially Kim Yu-hwan is only 17 years old, and Cha Wu Hyuk is at least over thirty years old, which requires absolute acting skills to make up for the age gap. The hatred for his mother and the entangled relationship with Eun-chae require acting skills.
