Chapter 81, being pitted! (46/100)
"Uh..." Wang Taika asked: "I want to ask, as a videographer, do you still need to understand this operating mode?"
"Of course others don't need it, but this kind of single variety show is only you. If you don't understand these entertainment methods, how can you guarantee that the shots you shoot are the content that the audience likes?" Minister Huang smiled and said, "Don't question me, I have been in the industry for a long time than you!"
"Okay! Ask." Wang Taika had no choice but to take one step at a time.
Minister Huang said: "I will ask you a question, what is your understanding of idol groups?"
"Uh, that's that simple?" Wang Taika asked.
"This question is not simple." Minister Huang said: "You are a foreigner, so I'm even more worried about you... After all, many things, as a foreigner, are really not something that can be understood in a short time. So I will ask you a question. If the answer is good, then you can start your work immediately. If the answer is not good, I can only regret reject you."
This situation is very obvious now. If it is a Korean cameraman, Minister Huang will use it directly. But because Wang Taika is a foreigner, Minister Huang distrusts from the bottom of his heart!
No matter what you say, you can't embarrass the motherland!
Wang Taika was silently grateful that in order to know more about Song Xiangcai, she actually had a lot of people related to Korea in private. Although she forgot a lot of things, she knew more or less about the general main line. She could only treat her as a living person!
Wang Taika cleared his throat and said, "The understanding of the group... Well, to put it bluntly, the essence of idols is still the artist economy, which is a complex and extremely low success rate. And it cannot be solved by spending money. Money is the basis, and it can determine the lower limit, but it cannot determine the upper limit. Take...function as an example. It can become popular when there are not many resources. In fact, the most important aspect is that the five people in the team are really good, and they have also been through hard work and one step further."
"You seem to like functions very much?" Minister Huang looked at Wang Taika: "Continue."
Wang Taika thought this was unsure, so he continued to say, "What are you saying? Others have a story about books, but now I am good at it, all of them are edited! After thinking for a long time, Wang Taika decided to use the oldest method, that is... flattery!
So Wang Taika began to talk nonsense: "Whether a girl or a boy group does not have strong operational capabilities to provide a guarantee, the later development will inevitably fall into a bottleneck. So a good company, a company with strength is the main one. For example, our S.M company is definitely a star-making dream factory famous in Asia! The strongest thing about our company is that it not only has strong hard power support, but also has the best soft power. For example, concept and style positioning, member selection, management, song quality and stage performance are also very strong, and the standards are unified to establish a brand!"
Minister Huang scratched his head, and even he was a little confused about what Wang Taika said. He seemed to have said a lot, but it seemed that he didn't say anything!
Wang Taika saw Minister Huang's expression, and knew that he was not good at it. He could not give him time to ask questions. He had to occupy the high ground of public opinion by himself. So he continued: "My understanding! The situation in the Korean idol circle now is that big fish eat small fish. The fame of an artist or a team cannot be exchanged for money. It requires time accumulation, including the company's own resources, strength and connections, and the improvement of the artist's own quality!"
"Stop! Stop! Stop and stop talking!" Minister Huang lowered his head and thought for a while. What Wang Taika said seemed to be profound, but in fact, it was similar to not saying anything. After all, what he said was very superficial, but these things were all recognized consensus. So even if Minister Huang didn't like this answer, he couldn't refute anything.
"I asked the wrong question, change it!" Minister Huang said: "Let's talk about variety shows! Tell me, if you are an idol, what type of program will you participate in when facing the three programs of "RM", "Singer" and "Three Times and Three Meals"? Please choose your position and give a reason. This choice is very important. Don't think about saying some neutral words just now and express your opinion."
Wang Taika is a bit messy, such as "RM", "Singer", "Three Times and Three Meals"? He didn't know these three programs at all and had never heard of them. Fortunately, when Wang Taika was a documentary videographer, he also knew a lot about the domestic entertainment industry. I think since they are all in the entertainment industry, many basic things should not be much different.
After thinking about it, Wang Taika decided to continue talking nonsense: "I think it will vary from time to time and analyze the specific things in detail. After all, the audience of each program is different. I can't see which one I like to participate in, and which one I am more suitable for!"
From beginning to end, Wang Taika's speech has always been very smooth. Although there is nothing outstanding, she will definitely not find any faults!
The key is that the sentence "specific analysis of specific things" is too incisive, and it kicked the problem back like a passerby! Sure enough, it is correct to not sleep in high school politics class! Taizu's words will always be so incisive! I will always love you!
When Minister Huang heard Wang Taika's answer, he nodded first, then shook his head and said, "I asked you to give me a choice, not to be neutral, but you finally gave this answer. According to the rules, it should not be passed. But I really can't find any problem with your answer. Forget it, since you can think of these, it can be considered as having your own insights on variety shows. With your understanding, it should be no problem to shoot and produce."
"Thank you, Minister Huang!" Wang Taika smiled, but as he smiled, he felt something was wrong. He looked up and asked, "Wait a minute, what? Shooting and production? Am I not a videographer? Why are there any production?"
"There are not enough staff, so you are mainly a videographer, but you have to do the work of PD and editor!" Minister Huang said as a matter of course: "Didn't Jung Soo-hyun tell you? For larger programs, such as group variety shows, the division of labor is clear. However, such single-person small columns, usually one person is the main one, with several assistants to shoot. Of course, the main one must do all the PD, video, and later things. Otherwise, a single-person program will also have to send a group of people. Do you think it is necessary?"
Wang Taika was shocked. At this time, he realized that he was cheated by the shameless bastard Jung Soo-hyun! And he was cheating so badly! No wonder other cameramen were unwilling to be cameramen for single-player programs. Wang Taika was already strange, just shooting. At worst, it could take a little more time. How could everyone not want to? It turns out that single-player programs are not just cameramen, but also have to take so many responsibilities! Wouldn't that be exhausted! It's even more tiring than shooting group variety shows!
"You don't think that single-person camera is just a simple camera, right?" Minister Huang looked at Wang Taika's expression and said, "You are too naive. If you are really just a cameraman, I still need to ask you what you think of idol groups? Do you also know whether you understand the working model of the Korean idol circle? You also need to examine your sensitivity to variety shows?"
Wang Taika smiled bitterly: "Can you push this? I shouldn't be qualified!"
"I am quite satisfied with your answer, so I agree that you are the cameraman of Taeyeon's solo show." Minister Huang gave Wang Taika a critical hit.
