If you can’t debut, you’ll get a fatal disease Episode 502
Here’s an old public TV program.
A program that has already passed its peak and continued its life and ended in a shabby manner.
‘But thanks to the heyday, the name is famous.’
In a word, the majority of people know about this program, but they have no intention of watching it anymore.
An entertainment show that sucked up all the buzz and fun and ended.
If this program manages to start its renewal season by getting a patronizing opportunity… Are there any expectations?
Will it be possible to find someone worthy of the name he earned in his heyday a long time ago?
The answer is obvious.
‘It won’t work.’
Celebrities and management companies are not stupid, and successful people will appear on popular programs these days. Because the invitation will come in anyway.
‘Why would I risk choosing something like that?’
It is a dropout at the point where there is a better alternative.
‘and…It’s impossible even considering the nature of the program.’
This is because this variety show is a contest program in which rankings are given.
< Genuine match >.
I don’t know if anyone remembers this name.
This is because Kim Rae-bin, who had read all the documents on the first day of the meeting, raised his hand and shouted.
“It’s the same program that we appeared on when we debuted as Wishz!”
“that’s right.”
In the virtual world created by the system, a joint group of Testa and VTIC, which debuted at LeTi, participated in the program.
“Oh, I remember. The program was famous. But why are you ruined now?”
“Because that was a few years ago.”
“Oh….”
There, it was a contest program that was successful until season 7 and was on the rise, but as time passed, it faced a slightly different reality here.
As more time passed and season 15 and 16 went on, the topic gradually decreased and the original PD left again and went bankrupt.
I calmly declared the truth.
“And the renewal version coming out this time is probably going to fail…is the norm in the industry.”
“….”
‘It can’t be helped.’
It is difficult to recruit famous cast members when rumors have spread that expectations are low.
However, since the name is worth it, if casting a famous cast member fails, it is a rebound and a failure, and it is impossible to dream.
just…It’s not getting attention and it’s going to hell.
In short, a doomed program destined for failure.
Even Keun Se-jin, who was lifting the documents, clicked his tongue.
“Wow~ You even included the survival rules.”
“Hmm, recruiting must be difficult.”
In the meantime, in order to be more stimulating in its own way, it is said that it went beyond the contest and adopted a survival format, so it is more difficult to recruit names.
‘There is a higher chance of losing money by coming out, so why are people who have already risen come out?’
It is not for nothing that existing survival programs take in amateurs who have not debuted or people who have debuted but are not popular with the public.
If you have more to gain than to lose, shouldn’t you risk being eliminated and ridiculed?
‘The PD must be hurting too.’
So, in order to overcome this situation, there was only one realistic route.
– Even one star with a very high name value is confirmed to appear.
From there, you can start recruiting.
The moment when it is confirmed that you can raise the board based on that and even if you lose, you can be recognized by the public saying ‘I fought well’ and ‘I can’t help it’.
Depending on the situation each individual is in, there can be enough names to appear.
However, it was not possible to find such a big star cast even at the time when the program was organized… ….
“…But we are going to go out.”
“yes.”
Sejin Bae narrowed his eyes with an expression that he had a lot to say. Liu Qingyu laughed awkwardly.
“The reaction from the production team was good.”
“Of course!”
okay.
As expected, when Testa waved the bait on the program side, he immediately bit.
– I think this is the first time this has happened to other broadcasters… . You are very active.
According to the staff of the agency, it is unheard of for a public TV production team to make such a polite and earnest request for a meeting.
Yes. These guys were desperate for a popular celebrity totem.
What if Testa became that totem?
“As much as that, it seems that if the difficulty of getting a program is resolved thanks to us, he will be good at editing. and….”
“and?”
“I think I can leave a good impression on MBS through this program.”
“…!”
It will become a contributor to the opening of the renewal version.
< Re-listing! Idol Inc. > I was able to take the same position as I did.
Although it is a public broadcaster that OTT programs are now losing popularity, there are still many corners to be missed, from year-end music festivals to music broadcasting weekend entertainment.
‘And they can’t pamper us as if they owed us for making our debut.’
It is possible to build a cooperative relationship on an equal footing.
Only the horse is the son of the airwaves, and in reality it is about an ally.
Besides, there is one more advantage.
“And PD-nim’s rank is high. I think the effect will be better.”
“Oh oh…That’s right.”
Apparently, a person who has been promoted because of his long stay and good personal connections will have more influence in the company than a newcomer who has just been appointed.
However, the big Sejin stabbed straight to the core.
“But wouldn’t influence be more important than rank? Seeing that you are in charge of this program, I thought you might be the type who works according to your personality rather than success.”
If you look at the damn program, it means that it’s a canned position that has been cut off from company politics.
I chuckled.
“There was a different reason for taking on this program.”
“okay?”
“uh. He said he started his career as a PD at a broadcasting company with Season 3 of this program.”
“ah.”
Perhaps because of that regret, he took on the role of renewal, but it means that the broadcasting station has no expectations for this program to the extent that even with that position, the budget cannot be raised much.
If you look at the programs that PD Lee has been in charge of so far, the fun batting average was considerable.
“Then, if it goes well this time…Oh, I’m very surprised even at the broadcasting station. And that PD is recognized too~”
“Yeah, that’s a good result for everyone…!”
Big Se-jin meant that all of that would create synergy and we would have a lot to eat, but anyway, Sun Ah-hyun seemed a little happy that it would be of great help not only to us but also to the production team.
‘Well, both are correct.’
However, there is one prerequisite for all of this to happen.
“For that to happen, we absolutely have to win.”
An overwhelming victory acknowledged by the vast majority of viewers.
stage.
Without it, all of this is negative.
It means that the moment Testa makes even the slightest mistake, it is a crazy act that eats away at the name value that Testa has accumulated as a first team.
But that’s it.
“As long as you win, this is the best.”
It was easy to negotiate with other platforms once they broke through the airwaves. Because the hurdles come down.
If it goes well, T1 might be able to come out with affiliate entertainment….
‘If that’s the case.’
Now, worries about domestic promotions are over.
“hmm…We must continue to maintain popularity and topicality in Korea, so even if we target overseas, people will listen to our music.”
“yes.”
“wait for a sec.”
Bae Se-jin intervened.
“Isn’t that a bit reckless? There’s no guarantee that these producers will do just that. Even if we do well, because of other factors…It is this side that can be ruined.”
“….”
“…I didn’t say it because I wanted to ruin the atmosphere. just…I feel like I should tell you once.”
know.
“yes. You are right.”
“…!”
“And in fact, even if we don’t come out here, we won’t suddenly go bankrupt.”
In fact, if Testa is satisfied with this position and wants to face a gentle decline, it is okay not to do this.
I rode the Daesang and did a world tour, and for at least two years, Testa’s name value will be vivid.
but.
“But I have to hold onto the platform somehow in order to keep going up even after the year is over.”
Just like the current VTIC.
This was the most important time.
“….”
Bae Se-jin nodded with a slightly heavy expression. And the faces of the other guys are also slightly spleen.
“OK I’m totally ready for that! Let’s get out of there quickly!”
Except for that guy.
The other guys nodded their heads, ignoring Cha Yu-jin’s cry as if they had promised.
“A majority vote.”
“good.”
And the voting began.
Rabin Kim brought his laptop and ran an anonymous voting program.
result….
“Unanimous.”
All votes in favor.
“Hey, there’s no meaning to anonymity, right?”
“I know.”
The members looked back at each other and laughed.
That’s how we decided to take the risk and start a leap that seems reckless at first glance.
And soon after this news, the embargo was lifted according to MBS’ active initiative.
[‘Legend Returns’ < True Match > National Idol Testa Participates]
Then, the fans’ reactions exploded.
* * *
At first, nobody believed it.
-???
– Why is Testa here
? – Why?; The probability of appearing in a survival program that
is not stupid, as if it will never happen, and all of the top 1 idols suddenly fail and are renewed.
I had to assume it wasn’t. If you don’t care, you’ll only end up losing a lot, so why take that risk instead of going on tour at that time?
However, the article surfaced again and the truth was confirmed by reporters who even called Testa’s company.
[Confirmation of Testa MBS < Jinsung Match > appearance… “I will show you an intense stage”]
Fan reaction at that moment… First of all, I’ll give an example under the water where ruthless personal fans are lined up.
-Are you kidding
me
again
?
…After the stage featuring Cheongryeo, it seemed like it caused people stomachaches again.
‘I’ll pay you back by winning.’
In this state, if Testa gains splendidly with that program, the taste of mulberry will rather kill it. Because you wouldn’t have expected it.
And losing on stage as a member of this group?
‘I rather have no self-confidence.’
No matter how high expectations people have, I don’t think I’ll be pushed back if it’s just to decorate the stage.
In fact, even now, if we only do information warfare, our weakness is… .
[Survey available!]
[Tip: You can customize the function of the with feedback through the survey.]
Yes, no.
Do you see that information is so urgent right now? I don’t know how many times this is.
‘The jingling bastard.’
You’re not giving up.
It doesn’t matter.
I laughed heartily at the pop-up.
‘Spacer’s comeback was also successful, and a drama starring Bae Se-jin will be released soon.’
Now, what if we perform well in this program and make a comeback?
It means that the rise in the company’s rating is nothing short of planned.
And in the case of Kwon Hee-seung last time, if you raise the company grade, it is possible to absorb that bastard’s ‘■■■ Fragment’ additionally.
‘Then it means that I can absorb what Cheongrye has.’
The internal algorithm of this ‘company system’ is also being looked at diligently.
If it was good, it could have been finished before Chung-ryeo went to serve in the military.
therefore.
‘I don’t need you.’
Without regret, I removed the pop-up without even gesticulating. And it was the moment I was about to focus on the stage design again.
“…?”
Suddenly, a translucent blue covered his vision.
Like wearing sunglasses.
‘what?’
I didn’t know what it was for a moment, but the moment I focused my eyes on the blue color, I knew what it was.
that….
It was a huge pop-up.
floated in front of my nose.
[Owner’s dissatisfaction detected!]
“…!”
like a protest.
and….
[[‘Company’ automatic re-update starts]
Wait.
