Chapter 23: Talent [Asking for a Monthly Pass]
"I saw all the photos you sent me yesterday, and they were very nice and fit our needs. I have also called the number you gave me, and I have made a verbal agreement, and there are still some details that need to be discussed, and when they are all negotiated, you and I will go and sign the contract together. ”
Ah Jiu nodded, indicating that he had no opinion.
Luo Yingshi looked at Ah Jiu and said, "I came to you today, the point is not to tell you this...... Do you know what I'm trying to say?"
Ah Jiu shook his head, Luo Yingshi lit a cigarette, and said, "I actually hate this kind of thing the most, because it's hard to explain." But I still don't want anyone to say it for me...... Well, or I'll say it myself. ”
"Regarding the idea of this 'three hours and three meals', the idea is yours, but the show can't write your name. ”
"Three meals at three o'clock?"
"It's your planner, and now the name has been formalized. Luo Yingshi's expression was a little unnatural, and he took a puff of cigarette, as if to cover up: "Although the idea is yours, when this show comes out, it will still come out under my name...... You may think that I 'robbed' your idea, but you can't understand it that way. Although your creativity is very good, it falls into the details, and the writers have put in a lot of effort, and I am the general manager of our big group, and I have also put in a lot of effort. Actually, my name is not just me now, it's our team, can you understand what I'm saying?"
Ah Jiu thought about it and nodded slowly.
Seeing Ah Jiu nodding, Luo Yingshi was stunned: "You understand, then what do you mean by me?"
"You're afraid I'm going to sue you at the Producers Association. ”
Luo Yingshi hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no...... How can it be so serious......" Suddenly he saw Ah Jiu's eyes, smiled wryly, put his hand down, and said, "Okay, that's what I meant." ”
"But I'm not talking about quibbles, you should know. It's useless to be creative, no matter where you go with this plan, KBS, MBC, SBS, it's useless, no one will look at it. So how to put it, creativity is only half of the show...... Belch. A third, or even a quarter, of thinking and doing are two different things. I can do your idea well, but you can't do it yourself, so I can't be considered to have robbed you. ”
"PD, you don't have to explain this, I didn't even want to fight you about this. Ah Jiu felt a little funny and said, "I just did an interview topic, and you also gave me twice my salary." To be fair, I don't have anything to complain about. ”
"That's good. Luo Yingshi sighed and said, "You can also sign it, put your name behind me, and be an assistant producer." ”
"No, no, I just came, it's okay to put on a name, but I don't have experience in specific things. I can't do it...... Ah Jiu thought for a while and said, "You've seen my resume." I'm a fourth-year student in the Department of Imaging at Sungkyunkwan University, so let me do a videography, I can do this. ”
Luo Yingshi raised his eyebrows, South Korea is a country that attaches great importance to copyright protection, and if it is exposed, it will be exposed if it is exposed. His image is set to plummet. This is a big hidden danger, but he didn't expect Ah Jiu to be so good, not only did he not fight for this name, but even took the initiative to reassure him.
He just said that he wanted Ah Jiu to be an assistant producer, not because he liked his talent at all. What kind of talent does a Xiucai have that hasn't graduated yet? Which assistant producer around him hasn't been in the industry for more than 8 years. asked him to be an assistant producer, just to appease him, but he actually refused.
Videography, that is, VJ, of course, does not have such a high threshold. In fact, the VJ of variety shows is not important about technology, but about physical strength. Luo Yingshi glanced at Ah Jiu's arm and knew that he definitely had no problem with his physical strength and was qualified for the position of VJ. But he is not a cheap person, Ah Jiu is so good, he can't help but show it, after thinking about it, he opened a drawer, took out a folder and handed it to Ah Jiu.
"This is the list of props that need to be purchased for this shoot, and it is clearly written, with patterns and notes. Don't do the camera, this thing is for you, you can do the purchase first. ”
Procurement is a fat gap, a production team as large as Luo Yingshi's subordinates, under normal circumstances, more than 150 people are active, and more than 200 people are filming. At the same time, there are three tenses, the progressive tense is to shoot a variety show, the past tense is to do the post-production of the variety show after the previous shooting, and the future tense is to prepare for the planning of the next variety show. For such a large group, there are hundreds of things that need to be purchased, and the amount involved is up to hundreds of millions of won. You don't need any financial knowledge, and no one can see it if you use your brain and greedy ink.
Of course, Luo Yingshi had an approximate number in his heart, and he had already thought about it, as long as Ah Jiu was not too greedy, it would be regarded as compensation for him.
Ah Jiu took the folder and flipped through it, and suddenly said, "PD, do these things have to be brand new?"
"What, you have second-hand?"
"I can get it, the price is ...... A third of it, guaranteed to be usable. ”
Luo Yingshi was stunned for three seconds, his mind turned sharply, is this kid really stupid or pretending, doesn't he understand my intentions?
“PD?”
"Oh, it's okay to be second-hand, if you can use it, one-third of the price is reasonable. You can do it. ”
"Okay, leave it to me, no problem. Ah Jiu was secretly happy in his heart, before the demolition of Beicun, he collected all the things left in the neighbors' houses that seemed to be able to be sold for money, and asked Park Chanrong to help him pull him to the abandoned park. He was going to buy it for money at the recycling station, but he didn't think to deal with it all this time. This is done, all sold to Luo PD, one-third of the new price, which is much higher than the waste recycling station.
"This kid ......" Luo Yingshi looked at Ah Jiu's furious appearance and shook his head. I glanced at my schedule and got up to go to the editing room.
……
Luo Yingshi never expected Ah Jiu's actions to be so fast, he only asked him to go shopping in the morning, and the things he bought back in the afternoon were piled up in tvN's parking lot.
"Iron pot, look at this, there are three models here, large, medium and small, two for each kind, large and medium are counted as money, and small ones are considered gifts. There is also this sofa, which is required to be retro, and this one is very retro, intact. I found several clocks for this one, and this one is still usable, but I brought them all with me, so that I can replace them in case they break down one day......"
Luo Yingshi followed Ah Jiu around the parking lot, and he was stunned, it was only half a day's work, where did this kid get so much rags...... But if you look closely, it's really not rags, although it looks broken, but it fits perfectly. Luo Yingshi is a person who pays great attention to details, and the props used in variety shows in the countryside cannot appear too modern. So his requirement for props is that they must be popular, to put it simply, the older the thing, the better, originally he planned to buy new things and make them old, but old is still not really old nature, Ah Jiu bought these things He is very satisfied.
"How much is it in total?" Luo Yingshi calculated a number in his heart, waiting for Ah Jiu to answer.
"A total of 970,000 won. Ah Jiu said happily: "Don't want the odds." ”
Luo PD has nothing to say, and the price he calculated in his heart is 3.5 million won. Such a lot, hundreds of large and small things, even if he personally went to bargain, it would not be less than 3 million won, a price he thought he couldn't buy.
He's a talent.
Luo Yingshi took out his mobile phone and transferred 1 million won to Ah Jiu, and the more he looked at it, the more pleasing he felt.
Ah Jiu looked at the extra 1 million won in the account, and Luo Yingshi became more and more pleasing to the eye. These rags are sold to the recycling station, but they are not even worth 200,000 won. (To be continued......)
