Chapter 280 The suffering of trainees
readx; Around 7 o'clock in the morning, Park Ji-ho, Tara and Lee Ji-eun, sat at the breakfast table together. The breakfast was delivered by the canteen of Hoyeon Group. Park Ji-ho no longer had time to cook for the girls, because since jh entertainment became a subsidiary of Hoyeon Group, Park Ji-ho, the president, was very busy. Although Vice President Yoo Jae-suk and Business Department Director Nam Yoo-jung were all helping Park Ji-ho, Park Ji-ho was still very busy. However, Park Ji-ho knew that this was temporary. As long as jh entertainment company recruited full staff, everything would be on track and he would be relaxed later!
During the meal, Park Ji-ho said to Park Ji-yeon and Lee Ji-eun: "Ji-yeon and Ji-eun, today we are going to SBS to participate in an interview with a variety show. If you perform well, you are 80% likely to be fixed."
Park Ji-ho's words made Park Ji-ho and Lee Ji-eun happy. You should know that it is difficult to fix a variety show. If you can fix a variety show, you can regularly expose yourself, which is very good for popularity.
After watching the two nodded happily, Park Ji-ho smiled and said to the other tara members: "Bo Lan, Ju Li, So Yeon, Eun Jing, Hyo Min, today you five are going to shoot the advertisement for Hao Yeon drinks. However, your advertisement is not broadcast in Korea, but targeting the Celestial Chronicle. It's very interesting. Your popularity in Korea has dropped sharply, but in the Celestial Chronicle, but in the Celestial Chronicle, my popularity has increased instead of decreasing, so I am also planning to face Celestial Chronicle fans in July."
Park Ji-ho's words made Tara members feel relieved, as long as they are still popular, no matter where they are. As long as they are popular, they will not be a drag on Oppa, Tara will be happy, and because of this, Tara began to feel a little grateful to the fans of the Celestial Empire from now on.
After breakfast was used up, a group of people went to the company, while Park Ji-ho went directly to his sixth-floor office. The other girls were going to separate from Park Ji-ho at this time, and they had to rush to their respective workplaces from their respective agents.
As soon as Park Ji-ho arrived at the office, Yoo Jae-suk walked in. Seeing Park Ji-ho, he immediately reported: "Ji-ho, we have recruited almost 100 trainees now. Yoo Jae-hyun is a little overwhelmed by the director of the agency and the trainees department, so I hope you can choose to take over the position of Yo Jae-hyun as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Park Ji-ho nodded, then thought for a while and said, "Let Joo Ji-hoon take over the director of the trainee department. He used to be an s-m trainee, but later he couldn't become an agent. Now I will transfer him back to be a trainee minister and tell him that the reason for transferring him is not to let him treat trainees like s-m. Instead, he should let him remove the bad s-m way of trainees."
Yoo Jae-suk nodded immediately and continued, "There are also problems with the trainees' contracts. Is it the same as the other three major entertainment companies?"
To be honest, trainees are very hard, Korean artists? Most of them are signed to train by agency companies in elementary school or high school, called "trainees". The training cycle is usually two to three years, starting from the age of fourteen or five, and debuting when they are mature at the age of sixteen or seventeen.
Now the selection of ordinary Korean "trainees" has reached the intensity of 800 choices. Only about half of the trainees can finally make their debut successfully. This serious imbalance between supply and demand is the fundamental reason for various human rights violations.
Because Park Ji-ho's company is just starting out, there is no age limit yet. You can participate in the selection if you are older. However, large entertainment companies like S-M have a trainee system: "Overall trainees (i.e. trainees) must enter the company at the age of 10 and pass the exam to select artists at the age of 15. This process is very strict. You must learn from sound, stage, body, watch, and makeup style. There are strict assessments. Those who fail will be eliminated at any time."
When a trainee in the s-m company, you have to practice continuously for up to 20 hours a day." The devilish practice is very hard, and even after two months of fracture, people don't know. The trainees eat and live in the company, and they are completely managed by their agents when going out privately, and they have almost no freedom at all.
Of course, this is just hard work. The greater helplessness of trainees is the company's exploitation. After signing the contract, it becomes a "slave". Economic exploitation is very serious, and the contract terms are very strict. The most powerful one is S-M. The most fierce one last year was that the three members of Oriental God filed a lawsuit with the court, demanding that the 13-year agreement between the three and S-M Entertainment Company be invalid. After months of lawsuits, the Seoul Central District Court ruled that the 13-year contract between S-M and the three was one-sidedly invalid. From the lawsuit between "Oriental God" and S-M Entertainment Company, it can be seen that the Korean entertainment industry is harsh in signing the agreement. His wife Lin Yuna also told herself that their Girls' Generation, like Oriental God, signed the contract for 13 years, which happened to be the golden age group for idols.
Park Ji-ho knew that the suffering of trainees was his sister Park Ji-yeon, so when Yoo Jae-suk asked if the contract problem of trainees was the same as the other three major entertainment companies, Park Ji-ho shook his head decisively. The selection would of course be as cruel as Park Ji-ho thought it was inevitable, because Park Ji-ho's company does not require bad people, but in terms of training, freedom and contracts, Park Ji-ho seemed to give the trainees the greatest tolerance.
In addition, Park Ji-ho also hopes that he has not made a debut trainee, and the company itself will absorb these people, and can be a producer, and behind the scenes. Anyway, they will not be allowed to start from scratch here, so that they will avoid detours. This policy later gave Park Ji-ho a great benefit, that is, Park Ji-ho's company is very cohesive.
Soon Park Ji-ho said: "Our trainee contracts cannot be the same as other companies. We must give trainees the human nature to the greatest extent, so that trainees can treat the company as their home instead of trapping their shackles, because only home wants to retain people. No matter how tight the shackles are, they will only make the other party struggle even more crazy, and in the end they will leave without looking back."
When Park Ji-ho said that, Yoo Jae-suk nodded with approval, and then Park Ji-ho continued: "Try to consider the contract as the trainees as possible, and do not have excessive unreasonable shackles. In addition, trainees only need to be a dormitory of six people per dormitory, and subsidize 500,000 won. However, for older people or families who are under pressure, you can apply for three months, with a monthly assistance of 2 million won. We must live in human nature."
"Yes...!" Liu Zaishi smiled and said, "I will discuss everything you said with our lawyer, and then come up with a human contract that belongs to our jh entertainment company."
Yoo Jae-suk's words made Park Ji-ho nodded with a slight smile. (To be continued, please search for Piao Tianwen, the novel is better and faster!
