Chapter 451 "Get Lost, Tumor!" (24)

Holy crap, are Korean celebrities really that miserable?!

Okay, T-ara's agency, MKB Entertainment, was founded by Kim Kwang-soo. He's a very capable person. KS Media, the agency of Turbo, the group that Kim Jong-kook debuted with, is his company!

It is said that Turbo was previously subjected to violence by his management company.

Including acts of violence such as imprisonment in basements and beatings, at the height of his career, he was often so exhausted that he was hospitalized and collapsed in order to handle more than 10 announcements a day.

After creating MKB, the previous management method will naturally continue...

For the sake of profit, the artists under my command are nothing!

Back then, Jun Ji-hyun's agency, Sidus HQ, was exposed for having ties to organized crime; in the early days, she wouldn't dare eat anything unless her manager started eating...

Korean celebrities live off their online popularity, and the speed at which that popularity explodes and then disappears is astonishing!
So how can one acquire traffic?

It needs to be exposed!
Exposure is controlled by the agency…

Unless you become a top star in Chungmuro...

Or become a representative of the Korean Wave.

For a typical idol like Park Jiyeon to get involved with Shen Yan is an incredibly rare opportunity...

However, Shen Yan still refused...

It's not that he's morally superior or anything like that; it's just that there's a gathering later that he has to attend, and he can't very well bring Park Ji-yeon along to the dinner party, can he?
So he shook his head: "I have something to discuss with Han Yan, Lu Yang, and Rao Xiaozhi later..."

"Oh...we're discussing the movie's release..."

"Correct."

The three films, "Finding Mr. Right," "Blind," and "Northeast Folk Tales," will be released in succession!

"Finding Mr. Right" will be released on March 21st;
The Blind Certificate, April 13th;
Northeast Folk Tales, May 20th…

Blind Witness's release date has been pulled for a week...

It's not that we're afraid of "Drug War," it's just that "Finding Mr. Right" has a strong aftereffect, and there's no need to fight back...

Yang Siwei glanced at Park Jiyeon and lowered her voice, "If you really like her, I'll let her stay..."

Shen Yan was speechless: "Big sister, you're an agent, not a pimp!"

"Then should I let her leave?"

“There’s no need to be so ruthless…” Shen Yan thought for a moment, “How about this, I’ll write a single, and then she’ll film a music video… It should take about three days!”

"...You are truly talented!"

Yang Siwei expressed his admiration and then went to discuss it with Park Jiyeon's management team...

Shen Yan felt quite sorry for Park Jiyeon. She said that after the troll incident, she and all the members of Tara hadn't been sleeping well...

The troll is Hwayoung, a former member of the girl group T-ara. After leaving the group, she publicly announced that she was being isolated by the other members, which had a huge impact on the entire group…

Actually, this whole thing was a case of CJ siding with the wrong team—MKB's Kim Kwang-soo is from a subsidiary of CJ Group Chairman Lee Jae-hyun, and Lee Jae-hyun, in his bid for control of Samsung, supported Park's rival, getting Tara involved in political activities. Ultimately, Lee Jae-hyun lost and was sentenced to prison…

Liu Huaying's father is a member of parliament and Park's henchman. He cleverly got his daughter out of the team...

That's pretty tragic!

However, they later signed with Wang Sicong's Banana Entertainment, and they must have made a lot of money!

They cover our square dance songs, endorse online games, do live streams, appear on variety shows, some of which are very low-profile...

Although their final results couldn't match Girls' Generation, the girls' income over those years was probably no less than theirs—the labor costs in our entertainment industry are incredibly high, just look at the saying "Deng Chao once, Yoo Jae-suk runs for a year"...

Just saying that, it's definitely not as good as Girls' Generation!
Their record from their early days remains unbroken. As of 2018, they had over 200 endorsements, making them the number one K-pop group at the time, three times that of the second-place group. They also had the highest endorsement fee among Korean artists—70 billion won, a record that has not been broken to this day!
Im Yoon-a received 2000 million won for filming "God of War, Zhao Yun". ...

Write a love song.

How about... we play "A Possible Night"?

This song is very gentle...

Let's change to another one...

"Not Necessarily" has a more upbeat rhythm.

A lonely island lies in the embrace of the sea; a free bird falls in love with the troubles of the distance…

APT... never mind.

"Xi Shuashua" is at least three versions ahead!
But then again, K-pop is just for dancing on the edge of the line. As long as the drumbeats are right, that's all that matters. Who listens to these songs and the lyrics?

To put it bluntly, between APT and Sunshine Rainbow Little White Horse, I'd definitely choose the latter!
You are the inner inner inner inner inner…

cough cough.

After filming "Finding Mr. Right" (Beijing Meets Seattle), Han Yan went on to film "More Than Blue" (More Than Blue)...

Actually, before these two films, he already had a film released – "First Time," starring Mark Chao and Yang Tianbao.

Adapted from the South Korean film "Love in Progress," it was released last June and grossed 35 million...

In the original timeline, he didn't truly become famous until "Go Away Mr. Tumor"!
Then we found the path dependency – romantic comedies about terminal illnesses!

Also known as a tragic drama!
Technical emotional stress is essentially just sentimentality, coupled with the protagonist's tragic circumstances...

"I'll Give You a Little Red Flower" and "Let's Shake the Sun Together" are examples of this type.

In terms of quality, "Let's Shake the Sun Together" is undoubtedly the best. Unfortunately, due to the shady dealings of the distribution company, this movie was actually released during the Spring Festival. Although it was urgently withdrawn and later re-released, the box office of 2.74 million yuan is obviously a bit embarrassing!
Han Yan's skill level is still quite good, it's just that his grasp of what makes the public emotional is not quite accurate...

Upon seeing the three, Shen Yan said, "There's a comic called 'Get Lost, Tumor!' You should check it out. It's about cartoonist Xiong Dun's experiences in the hospital... If anyone is interested, we can make it!"

Han Yan spoke up: "Xiong Dun, I know about her 'The Making of a Mature Woman'... She passed away last year!"

“I know…” Shen Yan waved his hand: “I’ve already got the adaptation rights to ‘Go Away Mr. Tumor’. The ending of this work is tragic, but the process is optimistic. It has a kind of optimism in the face of death. I can’t film it… If any of you want to film it, I suggest adding some comic book style… Also, the female lead is Bai Baihe! This was personally selected by Xiong Dun.”

"Let me do it..."

Han Yan continued, "I'm personally very interested in her affairs."

Lu Yang interjected, "Bai Baihe... I feel like she looks exactly like Wang Luodan... but even though they have the same face, I always feel that Bai Baihe is a bit sexier!"

"Of course she's got Chen Yu Fan!"

Chen Yufan was also a child of a high-ranking official, surrounded by a constant stream of girls.

Bai Baihe, an obscure actress, had to humbly curry favor with Chen Yu Fan in order to have a smooth career in the entertainment industry.

How could it be possible without sufficient sexual appeal?

Rao Xiaozhi said, "I've seen 'Finding Mr. Right,' and I think it's quite daring... How did you manage to get it approved?"

Han Yan: "Brother Yan told me that a mistress can be a background character, but she can't be mentioned all the time. So, we originally filmed a scene with her and Lao Zhong, but it was later cut... Lao Zhong was just a background character..."

"Finding Mr. Right" is basically about a mistress who goes to the US to give birth and then falls in love...

From a moral standpoint, this movie should never have existed!
