Xu Yun represented the Sky Entertainment Group and made his attitude towards the Korean artists clear. The entire Hua Xia entertainment industry also gave face and cooperated.
Within this month, the entire Hua Xia almost lost contact with the Korean artists. In any case, the Hua Xia celebrities couldn't make much money in Korea. Everyone knew that the Hua Xia celebrities even changed their nationality. They were just Chinese and only liked to stay in Hua Xia to develop their career.
Putting aside the fact that they couldn't survive overseas with this bit of ability, even with the famous Kung Fu Li of the Shaolin Temple, who had developed in Hollywood for so many years, he only had a few minutes of screen time in the Expendables series.
This was already considered a very influential person in Hua Xia's film and television industry. Therefore, to put it bluntly, not many domestic actors could do particularly well if they went overseas. Other than Jackie Chan, who also had box office appeal overseas, no one else dared to say the same. As for international stars, in the eyes of most foreigners, they were just famous social butterflies. They didn't even have a representative work.
Therefore, the vast majority of people who went out to mingle could only mess around at the bottom. What would a big shot like the windbreaker do if he went to Hollywood? He failed miserably.
After all, the veteran actors overseas weren't any worse than the ones in China. The veteran actors in China didn't have the time to develop foreign movies. They were more willing to contribute their art to the people in China. Those who liked to go out and play had no competitiveness at all.
Why could a Kung Fu superstar succeed? Because Hua Xia's Kung Fu was a special existence with real talent, so it had an advantage.
Those who didn't have any real talent or special abilities and just liked to go out and "play around" were definitely the result of being played and abandoned.
This led to more and more people wanting to stay in Hua Xia to earn money. Even those who had changed their nationality still liked to stay in Hua Xia to earn money. The reason was very simple. Hua Xia was a place where people were stupid and rich. Moreover, the people would see them as "big shots".
This place allowed people like them, who were playing around but didn't succeed, to still find status and respect.
Although they were nothing in foreign countries, and even the dogs on the roadside wouldn't look them in the eye, they could feel the need to wear sunglasses and a mask when they went out in China. If it weren't for the fact that they weren't beautiful enough, they would have bought a motorcycle helmet and put it on their heads.
The environment of Hua Xia's entertainment industry led to Korean artistes wanting to participate in it.
Looking at the whole world, it was a little too abrupt for Europeans and Americans to come to Hua Xia. How many other countries in the Asian region came to Hua Xia? The Japanese definitely wouldn't come. It wasn't easy for the Japanese to make a living in Hua Xia. The Hua Xia people already had ethnic sentiments.
As for the artists from the South Asian region, it was not easy for them to develop in Hua Xia. Their aesthetic standards were different. Just take the Yue Country trio for example … They had completely conquered the eyes of the Hua Xia people. They were all blinded by their brilliance.
This directly caused Hua Xia people to have great doubts about the aesthetics of the South Asian entertainment industry.
Therefore, it was basically impossible for the artistes there to develop much in Hua Xia.
Other than some artistes from new countries who could meet the standards of Hua Xia and sang well and were talented, there was only one Korean who walked the path of idols.
This made the artistes of Korea squeeze their heads to develop in Hua Xia.
Now that Xu Yun's Sky Entertainment Group was the first to close the door to their development in China, the bosses of the entertainment giants naturally targeted Xu Yun.
In a short period of time, Sky Entertainment Group received many invitations. All of them wanted to invite Xu Yun to the Korean entertainment industry to be a director.
This really gave Xu Yun a headache. After all, Xu Yun's influence on the Korean entertainment industry was too great. Xu Yun felt that it would be too easy for people to throw rotten eggs and cabbage at him if he went.
Moreover, the Koreans were so thrifty when it came to eating cabbage. In order to save money, they would soak it until it was spicy and salty. If it was thrown at him, how smelly would it be?
After Xu Yun expressed his concern, Xu Yun said, "I'm sorry.
Zuo Meiyan expressed her different opinion. "Don't worry, no one in Korea will be willing to throw cabbage at you. The cabbage in Korea is very expensive. Do you think it's as cheap as wholesale in China?"
Xu Yun thought for a moment and nodded. "That's true. Their cabbage is too expensive. They won't throw it at me."
"Korea's prices don't allow them to throw it around." Zuo Meiyan smiled bitterly. "I always hear people complain about the National Development and Reform Commission and the Bureau of Commodity Prices. If I go to Korea for a few days, they will probably praise me when I come back. Last summer, I went to Korea for a meeting and suddenly wanted to eat watermelon. I went to a small supermarket and casually picked a small watermelon. The bill was 20,000 won."
20,000?
Xu Yun was stunned. It should be known that in Korea, the "God's Job", the Korean civil servants, who had a high income in Korea, only earned about 4 million won a month. In other words, the Korean clergy's monthly salary was only enough to buy 200 watermelons.
How much did a big watermelon cost in Hua Xia? Especially in summer, when watermelons were falling, a dozen catties of watermelons would only cost 7 to 8 RMB. 200 watermelons would only cost 1,500 RMB. Based on this logic, most people in Hua Xia would earn more than the clergy in Korea.
"Did you see wrongly? They saw that you are from Hua Xia and purposely cheated you, right? "Ruan Qingshuang could not believe it.
"I should have brought you with me the last time I went there." Zuo Meiyan said. "You don't know. If you are a guest in Korea, if you give their host a few catties of pork ribs, the host will feel like they have received a very expensive gift. In China, you give them a few catties of pork ribs? They will think that you are purposely trying to scare them because they can't afford meat. "
Ruan Qingshuang nodded. In China, people would really feel this way. Unless they were close relatives, who would give pork ribs to friends? It was worthless.
"You might not believe me, but you have all watched Korean dramas. Take the one in Miss Mermaid for example. A man and a woman come back from their honeymoon. When the man suggests having barbecue, the woman widens her eyes and says that it is very expensive! The man says that it is fine and that it is rare to have barbecue. This is a drama in their own country. "Bai Xiaoye also said," That is indeed the case over there. "
Zuo Meiyan seemed to have found a confidant. "See? I didn't say it myself, right? Xiaoye, you know the situation over there too."
"I have been to Korea before. They don't seem to have any cooking oil. It is impossible to eat stir-fried vegetables there. There is a buffet in this hotel. Every meal is kimchi and iced water. There is not a drop of oil. Meat is also rare. I am not a picky eater, but I can't eat my fill over there, "Bai Xiaoye complained.
Zuo Meiyan nodded. "Now you know why there are not many fat people in Korea. The average income of an ordinary person is only about 10,000 RMB. The cheapest pork on the market is 100 RMB, and beef is about 300 to 400 RMB per catty. How can they afford it? "
"The food in Korea is much more expensive than the electronic products." Bai Xiaoye stuck out her tongue. "It seems that the melodramatic scenes in Korean dramas where terminal diseases are mentioned are not caused by the scriptwriters. It is really caused by malnutrition."
Ruan Qingshuang also seemed to understand. "No wonder when we allowed foreign artists to study in Hua Xia, Park Sung Gun was shocked by the banquet on the first day. He said that it was his first time coming to Hua Xia. He could not believe that our food was so sumptuous."
"He just debuted and does not know much. Usually, the trainees eat at a square table for four people at most. One main dish, four small plates of kimchi, a glass of iced water, and a portion of rice per person," Ruan Qingshuang said. "Speaking of which, they are really pitiful. They can't even eat their fill. The reason why the trainees in Hua Xia who went to Korea usually do better in the group and have a higher status is because of their economic foundation. Their families are well-off, so they can eat well. "
"The Koreans you are talking about are really pitiful." Xu Yun said with a wry smile, "I've never been to Korea, but they talk about it quite well. Something about Asia's financial center …"
"When I went to Guangzhou for the first time, the Koreans told me that Guangzhou was the financial center of Asia, something like that." Zuo Meiyan was speechless. "After I went there, I realized how ridiculous it was. There was not a single trash can on the street. The road was full of cigarette butts and confetti, and the pedestrian street was full of trash. We are used to a 20-meter trash can in China, so we can't adapt to the 'road conditions' there. The Koreans seem to be very used to throwing trash away casually. "
Xu Yun scratched his head. "Didn't they say that the Koreans are very cultured? They can even clean up after eating in KFC."
"It's true. They really clean up by themselves. However, this has nothing to do with cultured manners. In Korea, no one will clean up after you eat. You have to clean up by yourself. "Zuo Meiyan rolled her eyes when she said this.
