No matter how difficult it was, the Chinese New Year's Eve had finally passed, and from that night, the small snowflakes began to float again, and there was no sign of stopping until the day of the first day of the new year. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, probably because the snowflakes are so small, the traffic has not been affected too much. In fact, from his point of view, it can be clearly seen that even the road surface that was swept by the road administration department before the start of the Spring Festival yesterday was not covered by snowflakes, but only slightly revealed a strange situation of thin white and black, which formed a sharp contrast with the white in the roadside green belt.

Of course, Jin Zhongming drove out on the first day of the Lunar New Year, not to enjoy the snow...... Well, of course, it's not to hide from his mother-in-law, but he has to be busy again immediately after the New Year, and he may even have to stay in Seoul for several months on end, so it is natural to take advantage of the annual leave to try to deal with some important things.

What's more, the person Kim Jong Ming is going to visit today happens to be a local from Cheongju, so it is understandable to mention the schedule of visiting him today.

In this way, the Hyundai car was farther away from the original Daecheonghu Lake in Cheongwon County behind him, and after carefully studying the GPS navigation several times in the middle, Kim Jong-myung finally stopped the car near the famous Cheongju Toad Ecological Park at about 9 o'clock in the morning. Next, he walked out of the car with a pot of orchids he had taken from Chu Long's house and walked towards an old residential building in front of him.

"I really didn't expect you to come over at this time......" A small-eyed man in a thick down jacket stood in front of the residential building early and waited for each other.

"It's rare that this year's Spring Festival was spent in Qingyuan. Jin Zhongming replied with a disapproving smile. "And when I thought of our Luo PD, it seemed that he lived here, so I hurried over to pay a New Year's greeting...... It's such a cold day, and it's still snowing, and I hope that Lord PD will reward me with a few more hot meals for my loyalty. ”

Luo Yingshi couldn't help laughing: "I can't stand your sycophants now, and even if you don't pat my sycophants today, it's enough!" seriously...... Why did you come to Cheongwon for the New Year? When you called in the morning, I thought you were joking, how could you come here on the first day of the Lunar New Year?"

"Come to see my mother-in-law. Jin Zhongming's face immediately turned very bad. "Actually, it's not for nothing that I came here so early today......

Luo PD, who had just taken over the orchid, immediately laughed and almost didn't drop the orchid pot.

In this way, two acquaintances who had not seen each other for a long time chatted casually downstairs, and then went upstairs together. This is actually not Luo PD's own home, but the place where he grew up, that is, where his parents are, it is the first day of the first lunar month, so the small house is crowded with Luo Yingshi and his younger brother's two families. However, for the arrival of Jin Zhongming, these people have shown good self-cultivation, after Jin Zhongming and the two old people to celebrate the New Year, everyone gathered in the living room and turned on the TV, and no one bothered Luo Yingshi and Jin Zhongming who stayed in the study.

"Say it...... Why are you looking for me?" Luo Yingshi came in with two glasses of hot orange juice and sat down, and then went straight to the point. "I don't think you have enough time to go around paying New Year's greetings......"

"Even if I have something to tell you, I always have the intention of greeting the New Year. Jin Zhongming smiled and shook his head. "Luo PD, don't think of everyone too utilitarianly. ”

"There are words in the words!" Luo Yingshi immediately sighed. "But...... The experience of the previous month really made me feel that everyone is very utilitarian. The promotion of a second-level deputy minister will attract the turn of colleagues and the departure of friends...... Interesting?"

What Luo Yingshi PD said about this matter is not a secret in the workplace. First of all, after he was exceptionally promoted to second-level deputy minister during New Year's Day this year, major entertainment media and even some non-entertainment media directly reported on this incident.

And the reason, of course, is Luo Yingshi's huge influence on the Korean entertainment industry. You must know that although "Two Days and One Night" is moving forward in difficulty now, the miracle ratings of the previous episode of "Two Days and One Night" at the peak of the episode with an average of 50% and an instant of 57% have completely established his status in the rivers and lakes. It's like after Kobe Bryant scored 81 points, even if the Lakers struggle again in a later season, no one can say that Kobe is rubbish...... The principle is the same.

However, the promotion itself was not what the two were referring to in their conversation, what they were talking about was actually a series of reactions and turmoil within KBS because of the incident.

In fact, just a few hours after the promotion, before the surprise of the promotion completely left, Luo Yingshi noticed the undercurrent within KBS - many colleagues have changed their attitudes towards him, but the direction of this attitude change is not always towards the well-intentioned side.

And soon, some untimely rumors began to appear.

What an exceptional promotion is unfair to other hard-working PDs too.

What breaks the rules of the workplace will cause the hearts of the people within KBS to fluctuate.

What Luo Yingshi PD is actually not a big deal, the glory of "Two Days and One Night" at the beginning mainly relied on the efforts of a group of MCs, but now "Two Days and One Night" is half-dead and has a lot to do with him.

In short, such gossip was transmitted to Luo Yingshi one by one through the staff of the "Two Days and One Night" program team.

Actually, Luo Yingshi doesn't understand these things in the workplace, after all, he also climbed up all the way from the assistant PD. It's just that after taking over "Two Days and One Night", this small-eyed man put almost all his time on work, and most of the time at work was still on location for investigation and shooting, which made him forget some biological instincts in the workplace. So faced with this situation, he finally made the wrong way to deal with it, which was to bury his head and pretend not to hear the words. In doing this, he actually pinned his hopes on time, hoping that this mess would dissipate naturally.

But it is clear that Luo Yingshi, who has been away from the office for a long time, miscalculated, and the result of his doing so is that he is mistaken for weakness and can be bullied. There were some seniors who had previously joined forces with the executive level, and then directly asked KBS TV to revoke this exceptional promotion.

Whereas...... The reaction of KBS's top management was unexpectedly swift and resolute, and a description of the incident was quickly announced within KBS:

"Unreasonable promotions are not true.

"Two Nights" is the main large-scale field variety show of KBS TV, and Luo Yingshi's PD can be said to have defended everything in the later stages of this show, and he has been silently sticking to his position without complaint for a long time. And during this period, Baker's death, Kim Jong-ming's dismount, MC Meng's disembarkation, and the main MC Jiang Hudong's apology and retirement, all kinds of incidents are intruding on this show. However, so far, so many things have happened, but it has not shaken Luo Yingshi's PD in the slightest, and until now, "Two Days and One Night" has maintained a stable rating and maintained the love of the audience.

Therefore, this promotion is the result of his credit and hard work being recognized at KBS. ”

Frankly, there is nothing wrong with this statement, and it can even be said that the response is justified. However, the real problem lies in the way this statement is disseminated, because this thing is communicated publicly within the company through KBS's internal channels, and every KBS employee can see it! This also means that everyone in the entertainment industry who wants to know about it can know about it.

As a result, the seniors of those co-branded variety show bureaus fell into extreme passivity all of a sudden, stealing chickens and rice, not only did not get rid of Luo Yingshi's promotion, but made colleagues in the entire entertainment industry look at you with contempt...... So on the other hand, when they faced Luo Yingshi again, they had to keep a straight face even in public.

Therefore, in the past month, Luo Yingshi has fallen into a very serious state of isolation within KBS, especially in the variety show.

And this is also the real origin of Luo Yingshi's feelings about people's hearts.

"I wanted to put up with it a little longer. Luo Yingshi shook his head. "After all, the promotion has been decided, and I often don't take it with me on the TV station, not to mention that the low-level staff of KBS and the people of "Two Days and One Night" have generally expressed their support for me...... But those people are getting more and more excessive!"

"How far is it excessive?" Jin Zhongming laughed. "Can you still poison the lunch box for your program team, and put explosives in your equipment?"

"I'd rather be like that!" Luo Yingshi's expression suddenly became cold. "You know what? I thought they were going to give you a few broken camera batteries, a little less money, or something that didn't work...... But none of these tricks were played. ”

"Then what the hell are they doing?" Jin Zhongming was really puzzled.

"They are concentrating on agitating for 'Two Days and One Night' to get off the train!" Luo Yingshi replied with a mocking face. "There are still a few people who are agitating for me to be transferred out of "Two Days and One Night"!"

"People's hearts!" Jin Zhongming looked up to the sky and sighed. "Do you know, my sister Krystal asked me a few days ago about something, why do people fight each other when they are alive?"

"How did you answer?" Luo Yingshi lowered his head and took a sip of hot orange juice.

I told her...... It's nature. Jin Zhongming shook the cup in his hand, and the orange juice in the cup immediately released a white vapor with this action. Moreover, this instinct becomes more and more evident as one rises in status and class. This is because the higher you go, the more concentrated the power becomes, but the people who keep popping up will keep occupying the power quota that originally belonged to some other people, so even if you have no ambition, but the natural fuse is everywhere, and you can't help it! In fact, after I answered krystal, I had an idea, that is, the struggle of the ancient aristocracy should be natural, and the vast majority of aristocratic culture should also be based on fighting with each other...... I'm getting ready to take this as my master's thesis topic. ”

"Good theme!" Luo Yingshi nodded. "And it's true, like you say, if you think about it, almost all classical aristocratic culture was shaped on the basis of power struggles...... When I think about it this way, I am a little naïve, those seniors who are older than me may not actually have any utilitarian intentions, but when my sudden promotion occupies their share...... It's really frustrating!"

"yes. Jin Zhongming nodded thoughtfully. "There are rules for KBS, after turning to a full-fledged PD, it starts with a level 4 administrative level, and then every five years you will get a promotion opportunity, and then you have to go through a three-to-one competition to be successfully promoted, in other words, if you want to become a level 2 deputy chief, you must become a PD for at least 10 years...... But what about Luo PD? You took over "Two Days and One Night" in 07 before you became an official PD, right? The promotion in 09 should have been exceptional, but with the results of "Two Days and One Night" at that time, everyone had nothing to say...... Isn't that right?"

"Yes, thank you Zhong Ming for coming all the way to help me untie my heart......" Having said that, Luo Yingshi looked a little depressed.

"Actually, every TV station has such a problem. Jin Zhongming shook his head. "KBS is too heavy on the habit of official position, it is too difficult to get promoted, and it basically depends on seniority; SBS is too heavy on nepotism, and too many private companies hold too many positions, which leads to various positions full of incompetent people, and promotion seems too frivolous; MBC does not have these problems at first glance, but their way of voting for promotion every year is actually the most likely to cause personnel struggles, so everyone in MBC is a red-eyed rabbit who wants to bite people......

"You're not wrong at all. Luo Yingshi's mood became even more discouraged. "Not to mention the TV station, in the Korean workplace, where is there no such messy thing? Even the whole country, the president is elected every five years, but he is not allowed to be re-elected, and then the parliamentary elections are held every four years, so that the energy of the whole country is all kinds of boring political struggles, and there are not many people who really do things! The world is so big...... Can't you hide from these things?"

"Luo PD. Jin Zhongming lowered his head and shook the orange juice in his hand again, but the orange juice at this time could not release much heat. "I'll say something, you try not to get angry......"

"Speak. Luo Yingshi frowned, but he didn't care, he probably thought that Jin Zhongming was going to persuade him how to cheer up, but the other party's next words really made him feel a little angry.

"Luo PD, you were exceptionally promoted to the second level of deputy chief during the New Year's Day, in fact, I contributed to it. Jin Zhongming stated as usual. "As far as I know, although the senior management of the Variety Show Bureau and KBS have already responded to your credit and hard work, they have preset a promotion time of 12 years or even later. However, a long time ago, you KBS director Lee Byung-soon owed me a favor, so I used it by the way. As for the reason for this...... Actually, I want to poach you from KBS and go to a new entertainment cable TV station to be in charge of variety shows. ”

Jin Zhongming said slowly, Luo PD was pouring his warm orange juice, and when Jin Zhongming finished speaking, he also drank all the orange juice in one go.

Hawkers, at the beginning, Luo Yingshi's reason for doing this was very simple, if he didn't drink it, he was afraid that he would directly splash orange juice on the other party's face - in vain, he regarded the other party as a brother and his own person, but the other party played this kind of conspiracy on himself?!

But...... After the first two sips of orange juice suppressed the most violent anger, Luo PD found that he was powerless to get angry, and the second half of the orange juice was swallowed with a mechanical action, more like he was looking for something to do, and he didn't know what to do.

Putting down the empty cup, Luo Yingshi leaned back in his chair, but he didn't speak, not knowing what he was thinking. And Jin Zhongming didn't continue, but what made people speechless was ...... He began to drink his own half of the glass of orange juice in a relay-like way.

Drink it in small sips, very slowly.

And when he finally finished drinking, Luo Yingshi spoke again: "That...... Did you do that to convey the explanation publicly?"

"It's not. Jin Zhongming shook his head. "I just let you get a promotion a year early, nothing else, everything that follows is a natural development within KBS. ”

"I see. Luo Yingshi felt a little sad more than his heart was dead.

"And Luo PD, you keep watching. Jin Zhongming continued unceremoniously. "There will be more exciting things happening in the future! I can imagine it when I close my eyes, and then it will get more and more noisy, don't talk about me, there should be other TV stations that take the initiative to contact you, and then KBS will issue a statement again, and it is estimated that it will be sent directly to the media......"

"Don't say it. Luo Yingshi moved his body, changed his posture and continued to sit down. "I understand your hard work, you want to tell me that KBS is really not a suitable place for me, I always want to do my best to discover human nature with a sincere attitude towards variety shows...... However, they can't even give me, the PD himself, a stage to show his true nature, so how can I talk about other things?" Speaking of this, Luo PD's expression darkened a little, obviously recalling some things. "When everything went well before, naturally there was unconditional support from the top level, and you, Brother Hu Dongge and Zhiyuan also supported enough space for this show...... I've always known this. And now...... Zhong Ming, you say, is it that "Two Days and One Night" can't support me or I can't support "Two Days and One Night"?"

"It's all there. Kim Jong-ming also fell into the memory. "So...... At this time, handing over "Two Days and One Night" to a reassuring person is actually good for everyone. And Luo pd you...... There's really no need to bolt yourself there. ”

Luo Yingshi was silent for a long time, but Jin Zhongming didn't force him, and the two sat down opposite each other in the study.

After a long time, Luo PD finally spoke: "You just said so many disadvantages of the three major TV stations...... So where are you going to let me go, and how are I going to get there? First of all, I won't go to a place like JTBC that is at the forefront of the political struggle!"

Jin Zhongming's face showed a joy that was difficult to hide.
