You just know.
This is not patriotic. The reason why those foreigners look down on China so much is not about economic development and racial discrimination.
Just like many people, foreigners have pointed out that the Chinese like to exaggerate and make trouble, that is, they constantly reduce the advantages of the other party, and then compare them with their own disadvantages, and then draw conclusions. . On the contrary, continuously amplify your own advantages, then compare them with the opponent's advantages, and finally draw a conclusion.
There is more than one point of view put forward by foreigners, so I won’t go into details.
Since the original poster raised it, I will answer it. What I want to say is that South Korea is not a big economic country, and the investment is not huge. They have worked hard in this area, but that is the hard work of the organizers themselves, and the people themselves spend their own money and come up with their own ideas. , the state did not intervene in anything, and the government did not invest money. Why are Korean stars so much better than Chinese stars? Why? First, work hard. The debut of Korean stars is accompanied by ups and downs. They spend at least 8 hours a day in the dance studio. Rest? Do you think there will be more time, trainee? Let me explain the concept. In China, trainees are basically already stars. They only need to develop a little concept, dance, etc., and they will be able to go on stage in a short time. In South Korea, the life of a trainee is definitely dozens of times that in China. Trainee, I am not talking about SJ or TVXQ. Their training career averages about three years, remember, it's an average. However, TVXQ's leader, Jung Yunho, has been practicing for 5 years. I have been practicing for 8 hours for 5 years. Every dance practice will be checked by Shangcheng at the end. Do you know how to check? Take off your clothes and wring them. If the sweat does not reach a certain amount, you will be punished. 8 hours, converted into minutes, it is 480 minutes, 175,200 is one year, 5 years is 876,000 minutes, converted into seconds, it is 52,560,000. If Chinese stars can work half as hard as him, they will not be beaten by themselves. The people of the country are forgotten. By the way, this is just the time to practice dancing, as well as etiquette, body shape, temperament, vocal music, behavior, handling of affairs, etc. Trainees, the comparison between Chinese trainees and Korean trainees is really worlds apart. Do you know what the attitude of Korean companies towards trainees is? Even if you have potential, even if you have already debuted, even if you are half famous, as long as you are still in this company, as long as you disobey, the beating will only be minor, and there will be many more people buried in the snow. China treats celebrities as if they are holding a piece of jade with continuous value in their hands. This is why Korean celebrities always give people a temperament from the inside out. Even if they have slightly unconventional hairstyles, they will make people feel that they are in front of their eyes. There is a burst of clarity, and there is warmth in the fortitude, which makes people want to get closer instead of looking at it from a distance. Why? Because they have experienced that kind of hardship and endured that kind of hardship all the time before and after their debut. How could they have that condescending taste? How does that compare? The company only provides housing and food. If they want to wear clothes, they have to work by themselves. How can they work when they are children? They can work as backup dancers for their seniors, but the money is still very small. They are tired and they are almost used to it. Compared with Compared to that?
Next, these are copied by me. After reading them, I also deeply realized what it means that after hard work, there will be results, but the results will be mercilessly destroyed by the storm at any time
When reporting on the reasons for suicide of Korean entertainment stars, the media mostly used the term "excessive pressure" to describe it. There is a saying that life is greater than heaven. Dead people are never a good thing. What's more, celebrities have huge influence and commit suicide at every turn, which will more or less bring certain negative factors to a country or society.
So where does the pressure on Korean entertainment stars come from? In four words, it can be summed up as "fierce competition". What the acting career strives for is beauty and acting skills, which is what we often talk about as idols and talents. As for idols who rely on their beauty, especially female stars, their artistic lives are as fleeting as their youth. Therefore, as soon as you enter the industry, not to mention the entertainment agencies that rely on celebrities to make money, even the celebrities themselves will often be in a strong sense of crisis of "the waves behind push the waves ahead, and the waves in front will die on the beach", and their psychological load is heavy. Totally conceivable.
The rapid, excessive or even unrestrained pursuit of fame and fortune means a huge sacrifice that exceeds the physical and mental capacity.
If you carefully observe or analyze the life trajectories of the celebrities who committed suicide in the Korean entertainment industry, it is not difficult to find that male stars mostly die because of unresolved debts or affairs, while female stars mostly die because they are at a loss or unable to do what they want after being emotionally hurt. Extricate yourself. Maybe ordinary people can easily ask why they can't be more calm about fame and fortune. Maybe only those who have stepped into that circle can put themselves in their shoes and feel the difficulty of being a star. In that circle, ghosts and monsters swarm in, masks and illusions are everywhere, lies and deceptions abound, scandals and scandals are commonplace, gangsters act as directors, gangsters act as producers, and capital sponsors stars. In the jargon of the circle, "If you are It's best for normal people not to enter the entertainment industry." Unless you are "willing to adapt or even degenerate," you "have no chance of being around."
The entertainment industry relies on mix, not development. This is a fact that many celebrities are unwilling to hear, let alone accept, but they have to admit it. Every successful entertainment star has his own well-known and unique way of survival. As for what means or methods, no one is often interested. Active or forced, everyone is focused on the goal. In fact, it’s just two words: fame and fortune. Therefore, many female artists will suddenly find that it is extremely difficult to find a man who treats them sincerely. Many male stars also feel that besides flowers and applause, sometimes a true friend becomes a luxury. There have been too many performances that have been turned into reality, leaving illusion and loss filled with a black hole of lies and deceit. That circle is very weird and complicated.
You may be able to get a glimpse of the lives behind the glamor of Korean stars from the descriptions in the following paragraphs. This is an article I found on the CCTV network. Putting it here, it can more or less reveal the living conditions of Korean stars to a certain extent - the cycle of training an artist by a relatively large agency in South Korea is generally In 2 to 3 years, I started training artists when I was fourteen or fifteen years old, and made my debut when I was sixteen or seventeen years old. The young people who participate in the training at this stage are called trainees. Not only do they have to receive training in singing, dancing, body shape and other aspects, but even food and accommodation are arranged by the company. During the training process, the company will brutally eliminate students because they don't sing well or their appearance changes as they mature. After two years of training, there will be an elimination rate of about 50%. The currently popular five-member group TVXQ and the 13-member group Super Junior were basically trainees who participated in training at the same time. At that time, there were about 30 trainees training with them. In the end, these 18 people debuted and became famous. In addition, TVXQ's leader Jung Yunho debuted as a trainee for 5 years. During this process, he has been serving as a backup dancer for others.
The company gets at least 70% of the income
During the two-year training cycle, the Korean film and television company has to pay all the expenses of the new people. A large company trains a combination, and each person has to pay for it every year. The cost will be more than 1 million yuan. In order to ensure that this investment can be recovered, the contract period between the company and the artist is quite long, ranging from 5 years to 10 years. Contracts are very common, and some are even dead contracts. Ahn Chi Hyun signed a contract with SM when she debuted in 1995, and 14-year-old BoA also signed with SM in 2000. To this day, their acting contracts are still with their old club. In addition, large companies take a very high percentage of artists' income, usually 73% or 82%, and many artists even get no money at all in the first few years of their debut. Kim Dong-man, one of the members of the Shinhwa group, only had money to buy a house for his parents 7 years after he became famous. Si Jie told reporters that young people who want to become famous have no concept of money at first, but after they become famous for a long time, they may have conflicts with the agency. If they want to leave the company, they must pay high liquidated damages, up to 8 The multi-digit liquidated damages often deter artists. In addition, there are organizations such as the Singers Association in South Korea. If a singer wants to change jobs before his contract is up, even if he can afford the penalty, the Singers Association will ask other companies not to sign contracts with this person.
Only four hours of sleep a day while rushing to the show
In order not to be forgotten by the public, those popular stars must work as hard as possible. There are hundreds of variety shows in South Korea. In addition to completing their normal work such as recording records and filming movies and TV series, celebrities also have to accept arrangements from their companies to participate in these variety shows. They usually work continuously, and some even travel in RVs to catch up with announcements. middle. Rain once had to attend two TV shows back-to-back and almost got into a traffic accident in a hurry. In a recent interview with Korean media TV, HOT member Tony said that they once participated in 24 magazine shoots in one day.
Andy, a member of the Shinhwa group, said, "Celebrities can only sleep 3 to 4 hours a day. They practice dance for at least 8 hours a day, so they always feel lack of sleep." Si Jie said that this kind of high-intensity work is very common. When TVXQ is at its busiest, it will participate in nearly ten performances in a day.
Threats: The most difficult thing to guard against is the hidden arrows around you
In 2000, when the career of South Korean female singer Baek Ji-young was soaring, her female manager and boyfriend exposed a secretly filmed pornographic tape. In January 2005, Song Hye Kyo's mother received a threatening letter from her former manager Kim, demanding that she pay 250 million Korean won, equivalent to 2.5 million yuan, or else she would be treated with hydrochloric acid and hallucinogens. Two women. Kim was eventually sentenced to 10 months in prison. In February this year, Kwon Sang-woo was exposed to dual threats from his manager and the underworld. In fact, South Korea does not have a complete agent system. The company will arrange assistants around the artists. The assistants usually have a lot of information about the artists. When the assistants do not get the expected benefits, they will try their best to take revenge on the stars. South Korea even has a special anti-celebrity organization "Anti Fans". At the end of last year, TVXQ member Jung Yunho was hospitalized after drinking juice mixed with superglue. According to reports, it was this kind of fan organization.
Management being beaten is only the lightest one
Korean companies generally use Confucianism as a management method. In the company, the relationship between seniors and juniors is very clear, and if any member of the group does not If you are obedient, it is normal for the senior team member to punch and kick the junior team member as an older brother. In South Korea, if an artist wants to be popular, he or she must be "obedient". If he or she does not obey, the company will impose a ban. For example, if the artist becomes obese and the company asks him to lose weight, if he fails to do so, he will be refrigerated. In addition to the company, the Korean Singers Association will also always pay attention to the performance of artists, and will ban any behavior that violates traditional Confucianism. For example, Liu Chengjun, in 2001, he became an American citizen in order to avoid military service. This caused him to be blocked by all walks of life in South Korea when he was at the height of his popularity in the Korean music scene, and his career plummeted.
The description may not be absolutely objective, but to a large extent it is the current situation of the entertainment industry. In fact, entertainment stars are also ordinary people, with emotions, sweetness, bitterness, and spicy needs. They also need oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea. It's just that there is an artificial halo on the trajectory of their lives. Many times, we only see the brightness exposed outside the surface, but ignore the unresolved shadows hidden in the corners. We have been smoldering for a long time but cannot find a channel to vent. The imaginable endings are either crazy or autistic. Or depression, or even suicide in various cruel ways to end their lives. It is often easy to say a balanced mentality, peaceful values, calmness, and a plain life, but it is not easy to actually achieve it in such a complex environment.
It’s not easy for celebrities to survive in Korea. I think you should have heard about Korea’s notorious Anti
They are an organization specifically targeting celebrities
For so many years
Kidnapping
Blackmail
Threats
Continuous physical and mental attacks
Yunho’s poisoning incident is Anti did it
Many celebrities are so depressed that they dare not go out
Korea is always a country with extremely strong national self-esteem
Haha, look Here we go
Come again
Program, people who watch Korean programs usually burst out laughing. Why? Has anyone thought about it? Yes, of course. But why do you say that Chinese stars are worse than Korean stars?
I am really disappointed with Chinese programs. In the program, the stars are basically held in their hands by the stars. After a long time, what on earth are they doing? Who is the host? Does it bring joy to everyone or does a celebrity bring joy to everyone? Um?
On the other hand, Korean celebrities are almost equal to everyone. Celebrities will put down their dignity and bring everyone laughter and happiness like ordinary people. The host is almost changed at will.
And what about China?
Come again, the so-called plastic surgery!
This issue has almost become a handle for some people to treat Korean celebrities, but is this really a handle?
I now look at this so-called plastic surgery from two angles, right?
If, now, the poster, I asked you to go for plastic surgery, would you go?
You know what the answer is, but will you?
Why not, and after you have plastic surgery, everyone knows that you have plastic surgery, will you still go for plastic surgery?
Will it?
Why not? Why don't you have the courage to have plastic surgery?
Everyone knows the answer. If this is the case, why do they feel this way in front of the whole world? Why do you, a small group of people, dare not do this?
Why do they need plastic surgery here? For yourself?
They went for plastic surgery not just for us, the audience, but to bring entertainment and happiness to everyone. However, they didn’t get even a little bit of money, huh, but they were still treated like this by some people. treated as such. It is still the same to go for plastic surgery at the risk of body parts being injured at any time
Come back to plastic surgery, among Chinese celebrities, you can name the most popular among them, but there is no obvious plastic surgery in any part. Come out, Aaron Kwok? Andy Lau?
Can you be so sure? Then, I have nothing to say.
Entertainment itself brings happiness to everyone, and Korean stars have done so many things just to bring happiness to everyone
What about China? Why did you still have a face tied up in the last show? Even the smiles tasted bitter. In the end, do you still have to rely on the host to save the atmosphere?
Now, why are Korean stars so one-sided in the eyes of some people?
Quality, after reading various reports, I think China still has a long way to go.
Let’s play a game. Let me give you an example: Audition, which was the most popular game in the past. But, haha, it failed in the end. It also won various awards. What kind of ancestral award? Ah, after seeing this, why is everyone’s first reaction that the game is really rubbish? Rather than why this happened. Is this happening because of the game itself? Are there any parents or grandparents given to anyone in the game? Is there any?
The answer is no. And what happened in the end? All kinds of things are out on the Internet, 9YOU get out of here, rubbish games~~
What I want to say is that the people who say these things are complete rubbish. Stop insulting your motherland here. This is why foreigners completely look down on the Chinese. As I said in the first paragraph, it is not an issue of economic development or racial discrimination. Haha, what on earth is it? To put it bluntly, isn’t it just gossiping? After all this time, I haven't seen anything that says it's our own problem. I am wondering if, if I publish this article, there will be comments that will completely criticize me for treason. However, this is nothing. If it appears, won't it prove my point? That is the point of view of a discerning person, original poster, I read the previous point of view, and some people actually said that they are mentally retarded! Are they brain-dead?
Haha, I really want people all over the world to see this person’s point of view. It is the typical example I mentioned above. Does it mean that those girls are called brain-dead? Is there any basis for belittling Korean celebrities? If not, in the eyes of foreigners and even Chinese people with a little bit of quality, they are nothing more than animals with long legs that resemble humans.
Are you satisfied with my answer?
I am not unpatriotic.
It’s not that I hate Chinese celebrities.
But a complete disappointment. If they had the strength of Europe and the United States, I would not say anything.
If they were more modest and brought everyone laughter like Korean celebrities, I wouldn’t say anything.
But they didn’t.
Neither
Did you know that you can’t see a rainbow without going through wind and rain? Whether a Chinese star has worked hard can be seen from the degree of popularity or not. There are some Korean celebrities who have never been to China. Why can they still become so popular in China? But Chinese celebrities are still not popular in their own territory?
These are the things that make many understanding people feel chilled and disappointed
