So this time when SBS was determined to take down Shi Zhenqiu's new drama, Chen He was the first director to be launched by Huang Yanzhou, and he did not have any concerns about his previous failure.

After all, Chen He and Shi Zhenqiu have successful cooperation experience and have good friendships. With such a director, there is much more possibility of persuading Shi Zhenqiu.

Sure enough, Shi Zhenqiu easily let them see the script and understand what type of TV series he planned this time.

What Huang Yanzhou and Chen He didn't expect was that this time Shi Zhenqiu actually started playing urban action love scenes.

However, the content of the script made the two of them appreciate it very much and saw a lot of new ideas.

Chen He looked through it and asked in confusion: "If I guess it's good, there seems to be a shadow of Japanese cartoonist Hojoji in this drama."

This is one of his concerns.

As a director, Chen He has a wide range of attention and is not limited to the country.

So he knew Hojoji and his comics, and nothing strange was that he knew.

Faced with his doubts, Shi Zhenqiu admitted it happily.

"Yes, this drama is adapted from Mr. Hojo's comics. You two can rest assured that I have obtained the right to adapt the film and television of this comic in Korea."

Shi Zhenqiu pays great attention to copyright and does not want to cause trouble for himself.

Although the script was told by the voice, since it is an existing original comic book, it is not a big problem to buy the copyright once.

Fortunately, Hojoji was also very happy and happily sold the film and television adaptation rights to him.

Hearing the worries of not having copyright, Huang Yanzhou and Chen He both breathed a sigh of relief.

"So can we talk about the operation of this drama?"

Since there is no problem, Huang Yanzhou wants to directly take down the broadcast rights in order to avoid the long nights and dreams.

But Shi Zhenqiu had other problems, so he waved his hand.

"Director Huang, don't worry, some things need to be explained in advance."

When the two of them watched it, Shi Zhenqiu said frankly: "You two have read the script, so you should know it. To be honest, don't expect how high the ratings this drama can have."

Shi Zhenqiu had the data provided by the voice, so he naturally knew the situation of this drama.

Even when the ratings are at the highest, it is only 19.1%. This is far from his previous dramas.

In the past, his works were strange if they were not broken by 40.

In fact, when reading the script, as experienced people, Huang Yanzhou and Chen He had thought about this issue.

Both of them have strong backgrounds in TV series production. I dare not say that there is a 100% guarantee for what type of drama can achieve, but at least I know it.

It’s just that because this drama was taken out by Shi Zhenqiu, they lucky enough to think that perhaps the screenwriter of Shida is different from others.

Unexpectedly, Shi Zhenqiu broke the paper himself.

"That……"

Huang Yanzhou was a little hesitant. Isn’t the reason why BS wanted to win Shi Zhenqiu’s drama because he was always able to achieve good results? If the ratings of this drama are not high, what else can I do?

He knew he would think so, Shi Zhenqiu smiled slightly and was confident.

"The reason why I want to say that in the front is that I am afraid of this kind of concern. You may also know that the success of a TV series is not the only criterion. In addition to this, there is also a benchmark for measuring, that is, influence. The ratings of this drama may not be very high, but it can be imagined that its influence at home and abroad will be very impressive."

Huang Yanzhou understood a little.

"Shi Screenwriter, what do you mean is that this drama can be sold with high copyright overseas?"

If that's the case, that's not bad.

If domestic influence is created, then the advertising sales will not be affected. If overseas copyright sales are also very popular, then SBS will still make money.

They didn't know, but Shi Zhenqiu knew very well what kind of sensation this drama would cause overseas.

It can even be said that it was from this drama that Korean dramas gradually gained a strong focus overseas. Other countries in Asia also regard the introduction of Korean dramas as a special business operation.

This is the confidence he still has to bring out this drama even though the ratings are not high.

"So I won't ask for too much in terms of playback copyright. But in terms of overseas sales and online sales, I need a reasonable range."

Since the ratings are not very high, Shi Zhenqiu naturally does not need to ask too much about playing copyright.

There are only so many benefits in total. If there are too many requirements in this aspect, the other aspects must be reduced accordingly.

In this drama, compared to the TV station's broadcast, Shi Zhenqiu obviously attaches more importance to overseas and online benefits.

What he said was already very clear, and it also made Huang Yanzhou fall into deep thought. BS is different from the other two TV stations. This is a private TV station, and interests are paramount. So the basis for considering any problem is whether you can make money.

Shi Zhenqiu gave the conditions, so what Huang Yanzhou had to do was to see if there could be any profit.

Since Shi Zhenqiu said that this drama will cause a sensation overseas, what he has to think about is what this drama relies on to make waves overseas.

Plot?

Obviously not.

The original comic of this drama has been published for many years and has a lot of fans. It is not easy to win by plot.

publicity?

Even more impossible.

Huang Yanzhou works on a TV station himself and is actually very clear about the situation of Korean waves internationally.

Although it is so boasted by the domestic ones, the influence of Korean waves in the international field is really minimal.

The Asian region is better, but in the entire world, many people don’t even know where South Korea is.

So what are the highlights of this drama?

Huang Yanzhou quickly figured it out.

Korean pop star.

Yes, although the influence of Korean pop is not great, Korean pop stars have a good foundation in Asian countries.

In recent years, Korean pop stars have been well received everywhere they go. And these are the foundations that support the international trend of TV series.

Understanding this, Huang Yanzhou couldn't help but ask: "Shi Screenwriter, can I understand the list of performers for this drama?"

Everyone in the industry knows that Shi Zhenqiu has his own unique requirements for the list of actors. There is no such thing as an audition in his play.

As for the main actor, he basically just named him and then the person below him would invite him.

If you really can't invite, you will consider a replacement.

So he was very sure that Shi Zhenqiu would definitely have a complete list of actors in his mind.

Sure enough, Shi Zhenqiu did not disappoint him. He opened the file package, took out a list, and pushed it in front of Huang Yanzhou.

There are a lot of names on it, and there are almost dozens of people. Some of them are difficult to identify, and special notes have been made to avoid finding the wrong person.

But Huang Yanzhou's experience and experienced masters didn't care about the later part at all.

He only watches the starring actors.

Because he knew that no matter how many actors there were in a play, the audience would care the most, the starring actors must be the starring actors.

Only the starring actor can determine the popularity of a drama.

What's more, Shi Zhenqiu said that this drama is very influential overseas, so the starring actor must be a Korean pop star.

And when he saw several important starring actors, he felt relieved all of a sudden.

Shi Zhenqiu's list is indeed luxurious enough.

Not to mention the male protagonist Lee Runsung is played by Yoon Shiyun, the female protagonist Kim Nana is also Lin Yuna from the empress group Girls' Generation.

These two people can be said to be a perfect match and unparalleled in the world.

Yoon Shiyun has been rising rapidly in the past two years. The movie "Bread King Jin Zhuoqiu" not only allowed him to go directly to the front line in China, but also attracted countless fans in Asia.

Not to mention, now he has moved to the film field and has worked with big actors like Song Kang-ho and Lee Jung-jae.

It can be imagined that this son’s future star journey will be brilliant.

With his sunny and handsome appearance, it is just right to star in the leading role of such an idol drama.

There is no need to say about the heroine Lin Yuna.

Beautiful and unrestrained, he was once the starring role of a national TV series. It also matches the characters in the play, and it is not inconsistent with the performance.

Girls' Generation's influence in Korean pop is even more terrifying, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the number one girl group in Asia.

Two such starring actors are enough to support the limit of an idol drama.

Not to mention the role of the second male lead Kim Young-soo, Shi Zhenqiu chose Ji Chang-wook, who is famous recently.

The second female lead, Kim Young-soo's ex-wife, Shi Zhenqiu, named Yoo Inna.

The remaining presidential daughters Choi Da-hye and Shi Zhenqiu asked T-ara's Ji Yeon to play.

As for the role of Li Zhenbiao, who is older and heavy in the play, Shi Zhenqiu's favorite is the veteran actor Kim Sang-jung.

It can be said that after reading this list of actors, Huang Yanzhou was very satisfied.

This is simply a TV series piled up by Korean pop stars. It is strange that Shi Zhenqiu can't be sure that there will be a sensation overseas.
