Chapter 009 Money (I)

The presence of Sunny and Yori gave Kim a sense of lightness, and almost overnight he felt that the stone in his chest had become lighter. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 In the days that followed, everything else was moving in a sense of momentum.

However, the first thing to get a breakthrough came from SBS TV, which really surprised Jin Zhongming, because the beginning of the whole new variety show seemed to show a feeling of pushing the boat or coming naturally, which was really too smooth!

You must know that in just two days, Kim Yong-sub, who got the structural design plan of the program team from Kim Jong-ming, actually subdued all kinds of noise within the TV station, and then the TV station officially held a meeting and decided to completely delegate power to the middle-level production staff, and then a production team with the behind-the-scenes personnel of a series of ace variety shows such as "X-Man" and "Family Birth" as the team has already begun to be in the tense formation, and things have even developed rapidly to the point of directly determining the candidates.

And the main MC Liu Zaishi assigned by CUBE here, although he does not have much rights in theory after the program team is completed. However, at the beginning, he was directly involved in the deeper plane, that is, the issue of pd candidates and MC candidates, yes, even if the program team has not yet determined the theme and program name, Liu Zaishi has begun to frequently go to the SBS Mudong headquarters that he is very familiar with, and then he also took out his usual enthusiasm to sit there and discuss pd candidates with those acquaintances. This is actually a very ingenious setting, which not only ensures the status of him and the CUBE company behind the scenes, but also does not violate the theoretical rules, and at the same time, with his relationship with these SBS variety show practitioners and his personal level, I believe that it will not make those production staff feel uneasy or make them feel that their rights have been violated.

So without further ado, when Kim Jong-ming curiously asked why Kim Yong-sub was so smooth, the other party gave him an unexpected but reasonable answer - money!

"Money?"

"That's right." Kim Yong-sub's answer was helpless. "After all, there are only a few things that count in Korea, money, power, fame, and people. This new model has certainly shaken the inherent interests of those middle and high-level people, and they do have various intertwined connections, but SBS is indeed in a state of continuous loss, you are willing to pay money and support such a large group of variety show talents, even if they are unhappy, they dare not stop the grassroots staff who are in a hurry to start work......"

Jin Zhongming was thoughtful, and what the other party said was indeed reasonable.

The loss of the TV station does not have much impact on those middle and high-level personnel, they should eat and drink, from the advertisers, from the biased news position, from the TV series production These things they can share too much profit, what does the financial tension of the TV station have to do with them? This is actually one of the things that Kim Yong-sub and Kim Jong-myung were worried about before, this group of people don't need to think about what will happen if the TV station is good or a certain program is good, and the political achievements do not belong to them, they only care about who touched the cheese on their plates......

But then again, their power and energy all come from the bottom, and it is these people at the bottom who are deeply affected by financial losses, and without financial health programs, they don't have overtime pay or bonuses, and those things are almost the most immediate benefits for them. And a wild variety show group, compared with the scale of "Infinite Challenge" and "Two Days and One Night" next door, there is no reason to have less than 100 related practitioners with the team, right? In addition, if you add post-production, it will almost affect the grassroots staff of the entire SBS Variety Show Bureau - in other words, this force is the most frightening thing for that group of people, you can let them slap the table against Kim Yong-sub, but to let everyone below know that they are blocking the financial path of the people below, that is the old thing.

It's not an exaggeration, if you dare to do this, as long as someone deliberately lets the news out, maybe there will be old-timer employees with high family economic pressure to lead them that night, and then they will have to brush the prestige of their predecessors with alcohol - this is also a Korean characteristic, and no matter how much the old-timer identity is diluted, it is also an excellent protective shell.

"And the attitude of several private shareholders is also very clear." Kim Yong-sub continued. "Of course, they won't do anything because of SBS's loss, after all, they were lucky to be able to take the shares of the TV station in the first place, and this loss is not worth mentioning compared to the shares of the TV station......

Jin Zhongming nodded again and again: "But businessmen, who doesn't want to make more money?" Whether it is better not to lose or not to lose, I know this mentality best. ”

"That's right." Kim Yong-sub nodded. "Therefore, not only the staff of the low-level variety show bureau are eager for this cooperation, but the upper-level shareholders also feel that this cooperation model that separates investment risks as much as possible, and the way of handing over the management rights of the show to you, a wealthy company, is actually a good thing...... Other than that......"

"Other than that?"

Kim Yong-sub smiled: "In addition, Mr. Yoo Jae-seok and your name can also be regarded as an important driving force...... In the variety show industry, the sum of you and him almost represents the highest level of credibility, and the complete failure and collapse of "The Birth of a Family Season 2" makes everyone think that they can turn over quickly......"

"I'm afraid this idea is unacceptable." Jin Zhongming quickly got up and shook his head. "This is not a late-night variety show like "Undefeated Youth", this is a large-scale wild variety show, which is a representative kind of program, and can even be regarded as a cultural symbol of SBS TV and even the entire Korean variety show...... In any case, we should all be mentally prepared for "Infinite Challenge" and "Two Days and One Night" to be almost ignored for the previous year or even more than a year. ”

Kim Yong-sub smiled slightly: "I came to you this time, in fact, just for this matter." ”

"Oh?" Jin Zhongming raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Zhong Ming." Kim Yong-sub looked at each other with a smile. "Of course, we at SBS are not stupid, and we know exactly what it means to build a cultural symbol, but you have to know the inherent weakness of our SBS."

Jin Zhongming lowered his head and smiled.

"MBC is a battleground, and the reason why they are lucky to have Infinite Challenge is because they have a solid model for mid-level personnel protection. Although the internal political struggle often causes them to fall into internal friction, this kind of political confrontation with clear positions is actually a natural protection for the program, because in that confrontation atmosphere, the middle-level personnel of their TV station are rarely changed at will, after all, once they move, they will be considered ********, and then cause a swarm of strikes...... Therefore, the boarding and disembarkation of many of that station's programs are determined by the political struggle behind them, not the ratings. "Infinite Challenge" and "My Knot" are actually proof of this, if "Infinite Challenge" I am not qualified to say anything, then the show "I Knot" was almost certain to get off at SBS when the funny artists joined last year...... Am I right? ”

"Somewhat." Kim Jong Ming told the truth, in fact, "Infinite Challenge" was able to survive the collapse of more than a year in the early days and persist until now, because of the tough attitude of Kim Tae-ho's group, the people above didn't dare to touch them at all, but they came out of status later.

"As for KBS, I won't say much, they are directly under the state, and that TV station is an officialdom! As long as there is a TV station director with absolute authority sitting there, then he can completely maintain a program that he wants to maintain on his own...... You know this better than me, and you are also more familiar with Li Bingchun than me. ”

The other party is hinting that "Two Days and One Night" is now continuing to maintain its status in KBS with a rating of less than 10%, and there is a behind-the-scenes deal between Kim Jong-myung and Lee Byung-soon, which Kim Jong-ming did not deny.

"So let's get back to business." Kim Yong-sub became serious. "Zhong Ming, we just said, MBC is a battlefield, KBS is an officialdom, so do you know what SBS is?"

"You mean the mall?" Jin Zhongming asked with a slight frown. "That's what you mean, right? You just said that you came to me because you were worried that the early effect of the new show would not be good...... Looking at this posture, you don't mean to tell me that you SBS are not prepared to take on the responsibilities that we deserve, do you? ”

"That's right!" Kim Yong-sub replied seriously. "We want you to take on this responsibility......"

Jin Zhongming's face instantly darkened.

"X-Man is fine." Kim Yong-sub seemed to have expected the other party's reaction, so he even ignored the other party's reaction and continued to talk about it. "That's because indoor variety shows can't follow the trend, and it can be regarded as a good start and a good end. However, after that, "The Birth of a Family", which was the main hit of our TV station, made our SBS's weakness clear. How did the first season end, don't you know? How did the second season fall on this, don't you know? It's not that we SBS ourselves are not responsible, but that our SBS has a pure business atmosphere from the beginning, not to mention anything else, the same plan, you can't take it to MBC or KBS...... If you work with us, you enjoy the benefits of this level playing field, but you also have to pay a price for it. ”

"Exactly?" Jin Zhongming was a little angry.

"I hope that your company can reach a low-level plan with our TV station......"

"I understand." As soon as the other party said half of his words, Jin Zhongming was angry. "You want a drought and flood insurance, don't you mean? I don't want to say that the ratings can't reach a certain level, so let our company make up the revenue for your TV station......"

"We're not so shameless." Kim Yong-sub's answer made Kim Jong-ming slightly stunned. "The ratings are the responsibility of the program team, to be precise, our TV station should be responsible for it, if it is really bad, it is also our responsibility......"

"So what?" Jin Zhongming asked puzzled. "What the hell do you guys think?"

"In addition to this show, we have another idea, or experiment." After waiting quietly for a few seconds, Kim Yong-sub finally said the true purpose of his trip. "A variety show that integrates "Infinite Challenge" and "Undefeated Youth", the name has been decided...... You know that, right? ”

"Heroes and Heroes!" Kim Jong-ming reacted. "Of course I know about the show, and I'm involved in a different way."

"yes." Kim Yong-sub nodded. "A lot of the candidates for the resident MC are made through the TV drama alliance between you and Bae Yongjun...... It's really interesting, that alliance has been engaged in variety shows now, and everyone outside says that you guys are going to make this thing into a syndicate of idol resources......"

"What kind of syndicate is an idol league without S.M? And the alliance is not binding, and the cartel can't even be called! Jin Zhongming sneered softly. Putting aside all this nonsense, what Minister Kim meant...... Do you want our company to invest in your experiment? ”

"Why not?" Kim Yong-sub asked seriously. "With this cooperation, we at SBS are willing to ensure the continuity of Mr. Yoo Jae-seok's variety show. And, who knows if this "Heroes and Heroes" will be successful? first learn to put "Undefeated Youth" in the late night file, and on Sunday, it does not conflict with "Undefeated Youth...... Anyway, it's not a loss for you, is it? ”

Jin Zhongming fell silent.

He guessed the other party's thoughts, and if the experiment of this show was successful, he would have a big variety show with Yoo Jae-seok on Saturday and Sunday, so that SBS could return to the position of the boss of the variety show. Failed? It doesn't matter...... It's just an experiment.

Moreover, if you think about it carefully, there should be some attempts by Kim Yong-sub to grab power after he discovered the power opportunity brought to him by the financial loss within the TV station, so he wants to deepen his cooperation with himself......

But it doesn't matter, what if it succeeds? It seems that he still has a lot of feelings in his impression of the show "Heroes and Heroes", so Jin Zhongming was moved.

As soon as he thought of this, Jin Zhongming rolled his eyes tentatively and expressed his ambiguous attitude: "The idea is good, but I'm afraid...... Our company has more than enough heart but not enough power! ”

"Humph!" Kim Yong-sub, who was holding a water glass, suddenly sneered.

"What is Minister Kim laughing at?" Jin Zhongming was a little puzzled.

"It's all been spread." Kim Yong-sub put down his cup and smiled and pointed to the transparent viewing room in front of him. "The man who can buy such a building is actually too much to say to a small variety show? Are you teasing me? ”

Jin Zhongming's eyelids jumped.

Sure enough, is it still coming?
