Chapter 80: Interview
After the end of the first episode of the recording, it was already more than 7 o'clock in the evening, everyone was tired, infinite challenge up and down sincerely thank all the professional dancers who appeared, and everyone left after a polite time.
Lu Hongzhe pulled Cui Junxi to a restaurant, and after the two of them finished ordering, Cui Junxi rubbed his thighs and asked tiredly, "Brother, what's the matter with me?"
Lu Hongzhe also had a tired face, and his whole person looked wilted, "Oh." That's the case, I told Brother Hu Dong, he has no opinion on the matter of you replacing me, and promised to help me intercede with Luo Yingshi PD, you see when you are free, give Brother Hu Dong a call, you can talk about it"
Choi Jun-seok was stunned, and the movements in his hands stopped, "So fast?"
At this time, Hongzhe had no vitality in front of the camera, and he was weak even when he spoke, "A few days ago, the production group arranged a special on Dokdo, and it almost didn't play me to death, it's just a matter of using life to make a show, forget it, in a few days, you will know when you watch the show broadcast" raised his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "So, brother, I really can't stand it, you should do my brother a favor"
Cui Junxi's heart was extremely confused, and he also smiled bitterly, "Brother, you" He didn't know what to say, shook his head, and sighed, "I know, I will discuss it with Brother Hudong." ”
"Actually, there's nothing to say, with your current popularity, it is estimated that there is no difficulty. Hongzhe breathed a sigh of relief, but comforted his younger brother, "Actually, "Two Days and One Night" is still good, you see that its ratings are even worried about Brother Tae Hao, the latest national ratings show that 25% nationwide and 28% in Seoul, which is really amazing, so joining "Two Days and One Night" will help your career."
"Brother, then why don't you insist?" Cui Junxi asked angrily, but then he said gratefully, "I know, thank you, brother, really! Thank you~" Angry words, just like this brother said, joining for two days is indeed a very good choice for him.
Hongzhe shook his hand to show that he didn't care, he stretched his waist with difficulty, "Like you said, I really can't stand it, it's too hard! I still want to live a few more years, you don't know, like Brother Zhiyuan and Brother Zhong Min, they are all on intravenous drips to survive, and I went to the hospital when I came back from Dokdo." So, it's not empty talk to say that you're doing my brother a favor, although the show is very good, but my brother can't bear it, alas"
Choi Jun-seok poured him a glass of soju, "Okay, brother, I still have to thank you anyway, don't talk about this"
"Hmm. Hongzhe was busy taking the food from the waiter, while coping, "Finish eating early, go back early to rest, the last two days, I have come together, and I am tired"
"Okay. ”
Next, the two simply dined and stopped talking nonsense
Because there is no assistant yet, and Yin Xueyue has been off work early, Cui Junxi is going back, he looked at the lights outside the window, and thought, it's time to hire an assistant, otherwise it is not enough to rely on the agent Wei Sonan, he also has to take care of Liu Zaishi, it is impossible to take care of his own itinerary all the time, and Yin Xueyue, as a girl, is not so convenient many times. At first, it was because I just arrived at JS company, and there weren't too many things, so it was okay to have Wei Sonan to deal with it, but now it seems that it is still too much to take for granted. As Choi Jun-seok gets on the right track, there are more and more trivial matters to deal with, and assistants are indispensable, otherwise it will be too troublesome like the current situation, and you have to do it yourself. Choi Jun-seok smiled bitterly, it seems that there is one more thing to deal with.
The next day, Cui Junxi first explained the matter of Wei Sonan's hiring of assistants, and then made an appointment with Jiang Hudong to discuss the matter of two days and one night.
Choi Jun-seok came to a café near the KBS headquarters, thinking about what to say later, while enjoying this rare leisure. It's a pity that after a while, Jiang Hudong walked into the coffee shop with a middle-aged man of about 170. …,
"Brother" Cui Junxi stood up and signaled, so Jiang Hudong and the man walked over to this side.
"Hello, Brother Hudong~" Cui Junxi first said hello to Jiang Hudong, and then saluted the man, "Luo Yingshi PD, hello~" The middle-aged man is Luo Yingshi, the chief PD of "Two Days and One Night", he has been the deputy of the show since the predecessor of the two days, and it was not until he officially changed his name to Two Days and One Night that he became the chief PD of the show, and it was through his unremitting efforts that the two days and one night radiated into a strong light and went straight to the throne of the national variety show.
"Hello, Joon-seo. Luo Yingshi's friendly response.
"Ah~ You kid is really amazing lately," Jiang Hudong is the bridge between the two parties, and he is responsible for reconciling the atmosphere, so he sighed for a while as soon as he met, "You say, how many of them have you won? Countdown 3 consecutive championships, how many consecutive championships has the music bank crowned?5 or 6 consecutive championships?I can't imagine that your kid can achieve such good results, ah~ Amazing!"
Choi Jun-seok humbly waved his hand again and again, "It's all thanks to the love of the fans, plus the humility of the predecessors, I have to work harder" Speaking of this, he said self-deprecatingly, "Besides, the year-end acting awards can't rely on these one to add points" The subconscious meaning is that he attaches more importance to the achievements in the entertainment industry.
"Haha ^_^", the two laughed.
The three of them sat down and gave a polite look. Finally getting to the point, Jiang Hudong spoke, "Junxi, Lu Hongzhe told us about you. First of all, the host group I represent has no opinion, but the zuò group still wants to hear your opinion on the show for two days and one night. ”
"Yes. Although joining the show with Jun Seok Xi's popularity will have certain benefits for the ratings, we pay more attention to the overall configuration of the program, and I want to know what image you will use if you join the program team?" Luo Yingshi said straight to the point. PDs like them don't care whether the host is a first-line star or not, but pay more attention to the overall effect of a program, and the cooperation of the MCs is the most important thing.
Cui Junxi faced Luo Yingshi's sharp gaze, calmly took a sip of coffee, thought for a few seconds, and put down the cup easily, "PD said and laughed, as far as I know, the real essence of two days and one night is the suffering of the MCs, right? And things like the introduction of tourist locations and role arrangements are the second and third elements, right?"
Choi Jun-seok calmly said his opinion, for the host in the circle, the superficial purpose of two days and one night "real experience of the wild, travel all over the beautiful places of Korea" is just a slogan, from the perspective of veterans, MC's hardship, persistence, dedication, and unity in this are the real core, around this core, paved with the coat of tourism landscape that stimulates the self-esteem of Chinese people, the role arrangement is weakened a lot, at least compared to the strong role conflict of infinite challenges, two days and one night are far worse in this aspect.
Jiang Hudong was the core of power for two days, but on the whole, his control over the show was weaker than Liu Zaishi's infinite challenge. Jiang Hudong is only responsible for his main MC, although he is now in control of two days and one night, but it is supported by his strong hosting style. Unlike infinite challenges, it is completely in the grasp of Liu Zaishi alone, and everything is centered on Liu Zaishi. (It's just Mingjian's personal opinion, if you don't agree, please ignore these words) However, now that there is a Fen Xun Choi Jun Seok, the unchallenged power center is slowly divided into two, so Kim Tae-ho thought about starting to suppress him.
However, Cui Junxi was not stupid enough to say these words, he avoided the topic, "Brother Hudong is the core of the indeed, and Brother Xiugen is the role of his follower." Brother Zhong Min has always been a happy image, and he should be responsible for enduring hardships. Brother Zhiyuan has also begun to change his image now, and Chu Ding's role is very suitable for confronting Brother Hu Dong. Brother Hongzhe was originally a busy image, but it didn't seem to meet the audience's preferences. Uh, as for Brother Sangyeol (here I arranged for Ji Sangyeol to be still in the two days, and Jin C didn't replace him, I'll know why later) started as the main force in the confrontation with Brother Hudong, but it seems that the Zuò group has recently intended to find another candidate?" Speaking of this, Cui Junxi also deliberately looked at Luo Yingshi's expression, and sure enough, his eyes showed satisfaction, and Cui Junxi was even more calm. …,
He continued, "So, now the show has one less busy role, a character who is against Brother Hudong, am I right?
Luo Yingshi and Jiang Hudong glanced at each other and nodded with satisfaction, but he still said lightly, "You haven't said your own role yet?"
Cui Junxi's heart became more calm, and he asked carefully, "Then can I first ask the characters who are fighting against Brother Hudong, is there a favorite candidate for the Zuò group?"
Luo Yingshi glanced at him meaningfully, the little guy is not ambitious, but it is not a big deal, as he himself said, Jiang Hudong is the core of the show, this confrontational role is only used to create conflicts, and fighting for it does not mean that he can replace Jiang Hudong in status.
On the contrary, Jiang Hudong himself laughed and shouted, "Boy, do you still want to grab a job with your brother?"
Choi Jun-seok had a look of 'just kidding', "Brother, you think too highly of me, don't you? Do you think it's possible? Except for a few seniors in the entertainment industry, who is your opponent? In the hearts of our juniors, you are just like Hallasan!" Cui Junxi's seemingly deprecating words were said openly, which made Jiang Hudong laugh happily, "Haha ^_^"
Luo Yingshi also smiled, however, he suddenly threw a bombshell, "Actually, our zuò group has already determined the fifth member, and that is Lee Seung Gi xi, so, if you join, we are worried that there will be overlapping roles." ”
"!!!" Choi Jun-seok's heart was shocked, I see!
