Chapter 635 Produce 101 starts recording
"What, Xu Nan pissed off the sponsor?"
Lin Yu was shocked when he got the news.
The sponsor is the sponsor’s father, how can he be so angry?
"Yes, I heard that Xu Nan asked advertisers to pay 300 million in sponsorship fees. Several advertisers were not happy, so they were scolded and left." The deputy director told the news again.
"Three hundred million naming fees, is this guy crazy?"
Lin Yu smiled.
There have been variety shows with 300 million titles, but that kind of variety shows are generally national-level variety shows, and they are all variety shows that have proven themselves in terms of data.
You dare to ask for so much money for a talent show that you don't know the effect of. Who would give you such a big face?
I really thought he was awesome just because he was a movie director, but I, a veteran variety show director, couldn’t attract so much sponsorship.
"Director Lin, why don't you reveal this news and let the water army set the pace?" the deputy director took the opportunity to suggest.
"Need not."
Lin Yu shook his head: "The popularity of "Produce 101" is very average right now. The rhythm is to bring them popularity, so let's wait until the show is broadcast."
"I understand." The assistant director nodded.
While waiting for Xu Nan's variety show to air, he deliberately revealed the news and then set off a rhythm to lower the reputation of the variety show and make the audience naturally disgusted.
It's a very old trick, but it works.
Because most ordinary people have little discernment and are very easily influenced by public opinion.
Lin Yu said seriously: "The focus now is still on program recording. The quality of variety shows is the key."
As a veteran variety show director, she knows the importance of variety show quality.
As long as the quality is high enough, nothing is a problem.
As for the quality of variety shows, she is very confident.
the other side.
"Produce 101" officially started recording.
Contestants began to move into the Creation Camp.
Cameramen also started filming the contestants entering the Creation Camp.
These scenes may not necessarily be edited into the feature film, but they may be released as behind-the-scenes footage.
But a problem arose when the players were signing.
"Didn't you guarantee that I would advance to the final round? Why is there no relevant clause in the contract?"
A player shouted, attracting the attention of the people present.
Xu Nan, who was at the scene, rushed over.
"what happened?"
He recognized the player who was causing trouble as Chen Shiyu. He had one of the best looks among all the players, and he was one of his favorite players.
Chen Shiyu said directly: "When your staff chose me, you promised me that I would enter the last round before I came. Otherwise, I would go to the Penguin variety show. They guaranteed that I would enter the top twenty. How did I sign? Has the contract changed?"
"Is there such a thing?" Xu Nan frowned.
"That Director Xu is like this."
Assistant director Zhang Yang pulled Xu Nan over: "We weren't competing with Penguin for the contestants in "The Sound of Sound" back then. Some of the staff in charge of casting used tricks to attract good talents to our side. As a stopgap measure, we promised some terms to some of the better players."
"So you promise to let the other party enter the final round?"
Xu Nan was very annoyed.
What he hates most is someone acting without permission.
Now that it's okay, the irresponsible words have been spoken out. If a player wants an explanation, how can he give it?
If we really do what the staff promised, will the other contestants be satisfied, and will the variety show effect be maintained? What if it is exposed?
"You go and solve this matter. Anyway, there must be no shady stories in my variety show. If she can accept it, she will join. If she can't accept it, forget it."
Zhang Yang looked embarrassed, but he still had to talk to Chen Shiyu.
It's really difficult to be an assistant director. You don't have much power, but you have a lot to do.
The final result of the discussion was that Chen Shiyu angrily quit the variety show "Produce 101". There was another student with Chen Shiyu, who had received promises from the staff in advance, but found that they could not be fulfilled.
The graffiti cake staff didn't end well either, and was fired directly by Xu Nan.
Zhang Yang felt very sorry for Xu Nan's handling method. In fact, according to his opinion, there was nothing wrong with the staff's approach.
Which variety show doesn't do this now? It has become the default unspoken rule in the industry.
But Xu Nan disagreed.
Pity.
"By the way, director, now there are two students missing and there are only 99 students left. What should I do?"
"Would you like to pick two out of the losers?"
Xu Nan shook his head: "It's too late, the recording will start today."
"What should we do?" Zhang Yang asked.
“Easy, just choose from the staff.”
Xu Nan glanced at the staff present and directly clicked on two that looked good.
"You two are now students of Produce 101."
"ah?"
Everyone at the scene was shocked.
So careless?
Especially the two selected staff members looked shocked.
"Well, I can't do that. I can only dance and have never participated in a variety show."
The staff member named Xu Qian quickly spoke.
"If I say you can, you can."
Xu Nan said directly.
The students of the variety show Produce 101 have to train together for three months. Of course, there cannot be only these 101 people. In fact, a huge behind-the-scenes team is responsible for serving these students.
This includes support staff, filming staff, instructors, etc.
The two staff members Xu Nan selected were responsible for teaching these students to dance. They had good figures and looks, no worse than the average appearance of these students.
This was also the direct reason why he chose these two people.
Anyway, it's just two people who make up the numbers. Maybe they will be eliminated in one round, and there is no need to go to war.
"But."
The two staff members were still hesitant.
Who knows? When I came here, I said I just need to teach dancing, but in the end, I became a student directly.
"The salary is doubled, and there are additional bonuses for each episode."
"make a deal."
Xu Qian agreed directly.
What, let me be a student?
Give me money, that's no problem.
Another staff member agreed without any hesitation. Since we were all working part-time, it was not impossible to work an extra job.
Xu Qian made a draft in advance: "Let's talk about it first, I'm just a worker, you must not count on me."
Xu Nan waved his hands calmly.
It was just a make-up, and I didn’t expect much.
After solving this small episode, the variety show officially started recording.
Before the recording, Xu Nan called all the players and staff together to cheer everyone up.
""Produce 101" is a variety show that I carefully conceived and prepared. Although many outsiders are not optimistic about it, I believe that this variety show will definitely become a hit and set off a trend. Here I also hope that everyone can work with me to make this variety show a hit." Do your best in variety shows.”
"Do you have any confidence?"
"have."
The staff at the scene shouted loudly along with the college.
