Chapter 26: Artistic Pursuits

"Zhenlu ......" Park Canrong picked up the soju, poured a glass for Ah Jiu, pointed the trademark at him, and said, "Brother, this is my goal." ”

"How did soju become your goal?"

"Brother, do you know what kind of success is the real success?" Park Chanrong poured himself a glass of wine, looked at the trademark on the wine bottle, and said, "I've been thinking about this recently, and now I have a little experience." ”

"Well, say. ”

"It's like Shinro. Park Chanyoung put down the bottle and said, "Jinro is the representative of soju in the Republic of Korea, although there are many brands of soju, but no matter who it is, the first brand that comes to mind must be Jinro." There is no one who can drink alcohol in Korea who has not drunk Jinro. It's cheap, but no one dislikes it. Even if it's red wine, everyone will look at the price, but Zhenlu has been at that price for so many years, and no one will feel that there is anything wrong. You can buy real dew anywhere, and what you buy is definitely real, because it's too cheap and there's no profit in counterfeiting. ”

"This sake has a history of 80 years, and now there are 50 million Koreans, and there are only a few million people who are older than this sake brew. Isn't it a miracle that a commodity can survive for 80 years?"

Ah Jiu was confused when he heard it, and said, "What do you want to say?"

"The business I want to do, the goal is the same as Jinro, it is very common, but it is the first choice, you can not make a lot of money at once, but you can make it for many years. Park Canrong suddenly became serious, approached Ah Jiu and said: "And it must be monopolized, Zhenlu can survive, do you know what the reason is?"

"I'm a foreigner, you ask me this question......"

"I'm sorry, I forgot you're a foreigner. Park Chanyoung grinned in embarrassment and continued: "Because it bought all the competitors of that year, I checked the information of that year. In 1924, there were more than 10,000 village breweries in Korea, but 80 percent of them were bought by Jinro. He bought the trademark rights, so there was a period of confusion back then, because the real dew that appeared on the market was not a taste, but after more than ten years, the real dew unified the brewing recipe. Now it's all a taste. ”

Ah Jiu picked up the wine bottle and looked at it, frowned and said, "What you said also makes sense, I drank this wine because I couldn't buy anything else." Even if you can buy it, the price is more expensive than it, and the first time I drank shochu was this brand, I was used to it. Ah Jiu put down the wine bottle and said, "I already understand what you mean, so what do you want to say?"

"I'm going to open a repair shop in Busan. I want to make it the largest car tuning center in Korea, and I want everyone in Korea to make it a resort. I'm going to set the standard for modding underground race cars, imtheKingofRice!"

"Rice is rice, isn't it?"

"RACE, this is Korean English, you foreigner!"

Ah Jiu furrowed his brows and said, "The idea is good, but it has to spend a lot of money." Do you have a lot of money now?"

"How can I have any money?" Park Chanyoung shrugged and glanced at the Lamborghini that slowly drove in. Said: "Don't we have two financiers, we have to make good use of them." ”

"It's okay to use it, but you don't have a bottom, if you lose ......"

"Oh, it's useless if you think about this, I'll still make money for him. If I can make 100% money, I still use them to invest, isn't it good for me to take out a loan myself?" Park Canrong said and got up, and glanced at Ah Jiu, who sighed helplessly. Greeted with him.

……

After having lunch with Goo Joon-ho and Park Chan-young, A-Jiu drove back to tvN. Along the way, he always felt as if he had forgotten something, and when he entered the city, he remembered that Chanrong's interruption had diverted the matter between him and Zhu Minxi. It seems that there are some little secrets in this. Ah Jiu's curiosity was aroused, and he didn't explain honestly, thinking that he could hide from it in this way, and he would find out sooner or later.

After parking the car, Ah Jiu went straight to Luo Yingshi's office. Luo Yingshi was holding his breath, just now he got the budget table for "Three Hours and Three Meals", and he only got half of the money he reported. This shows one thing, the company is very optimistic about food variety shows. If it weren't for Luo Yingshi and another producer, this project would be 100% directly returned, not to mention half of the budget, and there would not even be a hair.

"I left KBS just for freedom!" Luo Yingshi saw that Ah Jiu had entered the house, and he could be regarded as finding an outlet, and complained endlessly: "The freedom of creation, do you understand? Although we are producers, we should have humanistic feelings, we are artists! Do artists understand? We pay attention to human emotions, and what we are doing is to soothe the soul!"

"They know a fart! They admit money! Diet can't do variety shows? I'm going to do it to watch!"

Ah Jiu glanced at the budget table on the table and said, "PD, is it because I came up with this idea that the company thinks it is unreliable?"

Luo Yingshi was stunned for a moment, waved his hand, and said: "It's possible, but that's not the point! The point is that they don't trust me, and the promises they gave me are all fart now! What did I say at the time, I came to tvN, and the entire variety show department revolved around me, what kind of program do I want to do, ask for money for money, ask for people to give people, and ask for channels to give channels." But in less than a year, I added someone who said that I wasted production money, and I wanted to promote it, send a few drafts, and only seven out of ten articles could be sent, and now it's okay, and the money is not given. These bastards, how much money did I make for them!"

Luo Yingshi's voice suddenly doubled: "It's a big deal, I'll stop doing it, I'll go! I'll go back to KBS!"

The door of the office was immediately pushed open, and Jin Yazhu walked in: "What are you shouting, the whole company hears it!"

"Eavesdropping at the door?" Luo Yingshi sat on the chair, his eyes drifting to the ceiling: "I'm not just talking, don't give me money, I'll really go, anyway, it's the same everywhere, the restrictions are restricted, and I won't make a penny more." ”

Ah Jiu closed the door, leaned against the door panel, thinking about his own affairs, this is an opportunity, the company had better not compromise, don't give money, don't give!

As if hearing Ah Jiu's heart, Jin Yazhu sat down, looked at Luo Yingshi across the table, and said: "There are two main reasons, the first is the type of diet variety show, there have been no successful examples before, you have the budget you proposed, and the money can be used on the three major TV stations to do three indoor food programs, which is not a small expense." It's not that the company doesn't give you money, but it has to consider whether the money is worth it. ”

Luo Yingshi snorted, looking disdainful of explanation.

"And another reason is because of him. Jin Yazhu pointed at Ah Jiu: "He came up with this idea, he is just a newcomer, whether his idea is worth investing so much money is debatable." (To be continued......)
