Chapter 21: The Chief's Face
Compared with Kim Youkun's embarrassment, these problems are not even problems in Park Jung-hyuk's eyes. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Even if he was in the past, it would not be too difficult to invite any artist.
After all, it's a top-level PD, and I don't dare not give face.
Not to mention that now, the director of the JTBC Arts Bureau personally invited, as long as he is an artist, he has to think about it.
Taking Kim Youkun's question, Park Jung-hyuk made a phone call, and then instructed him: "Let's go, make an appointment, let's go to dinner together." ”
The agreed place is Li Lianfu's restaurant, because it is a regular customer, so there is a specially set aside box.
When Park Jung-hyuk arrived with Kim You-kun, there were already people waiting inside.
"Hey, Director Xi, I haven't seen you for a long time."
The people inside were extremely enthusiastic, and as soon as Park Jung-hyuk came in, they hugged him with a smile on their faces.
Next year is much older than Park Jung-hyuk, but he is not reserved at all, and there is obvious flattery in his expression.
This can't be helped, Park Jung-hyuk is now in a high position, and unexpectedly makes people who were once equal a lot more careful.
The last time I had dinner with Zheng Hengdun, I was obviously a good friend before, but I found respect in the little fat man's expression.
Park Jung-hyuk lamented that the high place was unbearable, and on the other hand, he also consciously reduced his contacts with Yoo Jae-seok and others.
No way, he didn't have a sense of arrogance, and still treated them as friends. But in the face of a big director, no matter what you do, you have to be cautious and nervous.
Just like the wine table, the atmosphere could have been very lively, but as a result, a leader sat down, and everyone couldn't let go.
Fortunately, Park Jung-hoon is still in the Hongdae circle, and his relationship with Haha and others will not be broken.
Kim Youkun followed in, only to find out that the person Park Jung-hyuk agreed with was MC Kim Sung-joo.
In "I Am a Singer" before, everyone worked together, so when they met at this time, Kim Youkun and Kim Sung-joo also greeted each other.
After everyone sat down, the wine and food came up in time.
Kim Sung-joo hurriedly grabbed the wine bottle and carefully helped Park Jung-hyuk fill it.
"It's only been a month, and it's changed so fast. I haven't congratulated you on your promotion to director. ”
Park Jung-hyuk waved his hand and said with a smile: "Senior, there is no need to be polite between us." You are an excellent MC, and your abilities are in everyone's eyes. We worked together so much before, and it's really nostalgic. ”
This is what is in the words, can Jin Chengzhuyan not hear it?
At the same time, his mind was eager.
"Alas, don't hide it from the director. It's been a long time since you left and I haven't been notified of a job. What program will be hosted next time, there is no eyebrow yet. ”
"No, Brother Chengzhu, you are such an excellent MC, MBC won't be ignorant?" Jin Youkun asked in surprise.
No one knows if he asked this on purpose, or unintentionally. Anyway, through his questions, things are all on the surface.
"Hehe, in today's society, who else is as meritocracy and discerning as the director?"
Although he was lamenting the difficulties of the world, everyone could hear that after Park Jung-hyuk left, Kim Sung-joo lost his backer and returned to a state of ruin.
Isn't this the effect that Park Jung-hyuk wants, he picked up his wine glass and said, "Needless to say, we all know the difficulties of our predecessors." ”
Jin Chengzhu almost cried, and the forty-year-old man, holding back his tears, quickly picked up the wine glass, turned his head and drank it all.
The spicy alcohol ran down his throat, like a sword with flames, and it broke through the depression in his chest at once.
He entered the industry very early and became the envy of everyone's MC.
But when you want to talk about the scenery since you joined the company, you can only follow Park Jung-hyuk to do "I Am a Singer" in the two years.
At that time, he would appear on the screen on time every Sunday, and his fame opened up at once.
Now walking on the road, there will be people looking for him to take photos and sign autographs. finally realized what it was like to be a celebrity, and Kim Sung-joo naturally missed that time very much.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and since Park Jung-hyuk left MBC, his situation has plummeted.
Because he rose by relying on Park Jung-hyuk's show, others naturally labeled him as Park Jung-hyuk's lineage.
As a result, now as a powerful MC, Kim Sung-joo doesn't have any work.
Thinking about this situation, the bitterness of the old man turned into endless sorrow.
Park Jung-hyuk came to Kim Sung-joo, naturally not to listen to the old man's bitter tears.
In his memory, in "Where Are You Going, Dad" in his previous life, there was a place for Jin Chengzhu.
Kim Sung-joo and Kim Min-ryu father and son in the first season, and Kim Sung-joo and Kim Min-riu father and son in the second season, he participated in both seasons.
Although when it comes to popularity, it is not as good as the father-son partner of Yoon Min-so and Yoon Hou, but don't forget, Kim Sung-joo is from MC.
The structure of "Where Are You Going, Dad" is relatively loose, and it seems that it was more casual when it was recorded. But as long as it is a show, there is actually a main line in it.
And for those who are ready to grasp the main line, you can't count on singers like Yoon Min-so, actors like Sung Dong-il and Lee Jong-hyuk, or players like Song Jong-kook.
On the contrary, with Kim Sung-joo's participation, he can cooperate with the program team from time to time, control the development of the program, and make the program more watchable.
Therefore, if you want to say that an indispensable character in "Where Are You Going, Dad", it is actually Kim Sung-joo.
And Kim Sung-joo in his previous life also became famous in "Where Are You Going, Dad", and through this show, the producers realized his ability.
Since then, Kim Sung-joo has completely shaken off his obscurity and suddenly grown into a hot celebrity in South Korea.
In the time and space when Park Jung-hyuk was reborn, Kim Sung-joo was the most popular MC alongside Jun Hyun-moo, Yoo Se-yoon, and Sung Shi-kyung.
These four people are also the pillars of the Mesozoic Era after Liu Zaishi, Jiang Hudong, Shin Dongye, and Li Huicai, and basically dominate the new generation of variety shows in South Korea.
From the beginning of knowing Kim Sung-joo, Park Jung-hyuk was very optimistic about him, so he was pulled into the program group of "I Am a Singer".
As a result, Kim Sung-joo's fame was two years earlier than in his previous life.
But because of Park Jung-hyuk's relationship, Kim Sung-joo is now struggling in MBC and has many difficulties.
However, the difficulties encountered by Kim Sung-ju are a rare opportunity for Park Jung-hyuk.
Now, after understanding the situation, what he has to do is not just invite Kim Sung-joo to star in "Where Are You Going, Dad".
"Since it's very difficult in MBC, it's better to get out. It's still the same as before, I'll set the stage for you, and you can play. I know your talents, and one day, MBC will ceremoniously invite you back. ”
The mountain is not high, and there is a fairy name; The water is not deep, and if there is a dragon, it will be spiritual. Words are not important, but sincerity is sincere.
When Park Jung-hyuk really sent out the invitation, Kim Sung-joo couldn't control his emotions anymore, and tears fell to the ground.
"Director, you still understand me. Rest assured, I'll hand in my resignation letter when I get back. From now on, JTBC will be my home, and I will fight to the death as a member of JTBC. ”
"Ahh......h
Park Jung-hyuk hurriedly stopped him, "It's not JTBC, I'm inviting you to join Lua Entertainment." From now on, you'll be able to act as a freelance MC, so you won't be confined to a single broadcaster. ”
Nowadays, there are very few MCs in South Korea that are fixed in a broadcasting agency. Basically, they are independent and go wherever they are needed.
Generally speaking, MC also has its own brokerage company, which operates according to the deployment of the brokerage company.
When he was going to dig gold and come over, Park Jung-hyuk had already thought about letting him join Lua Entertainment.
This company currently has actors, idols, PDs, and music producers, but there is no MC yet. Then start with Kim Sung-joo and officially expand the company's business.
"I'm the director of lua entertainment, and if you join here, I can better arrange a job for you."
As soon as he heard that this was the case, Jin Chengzhu naturally had no opinion.
From his heart, he really doesn't want to be fixed in the broadcasting agency.
In that case, when other broadcasters have invitations, they can't go at all, and how much money do you make?
And when it came to Lua Entertainment, it was still under Park Jung-hyuk. What kind of plan does this top producer have at that time, and can he still get his own share?
After quickly figuring it out, Kim Sung-joo happily agreed.
Later, Park Jung-hyuk came forward again and sent an invitation to Kim Sung-joo on behalf of "Where Are You Going, Dad".
Originally, Jin Chengzhu was still a little worried about appearing with his children, for fear that it would affect the growth of his children.
But Park Jung-hyuk had already thought of his rhetoric.
"After appearing in the show, your children will definitely become celebrities. It may be a bit of a burden to live in the future, but it will also become a qualification. If he hopes to enter the entertainment industry in the future, having such an experience will only be good for him, not harmful. And following the program team to go to various places to see and increase what you have seen, it is far more than learning in the classroom. ”
Jin Chengzhu thought about it, and it was true.
As children grow up, the most troublesome issue for parents is naturally education.
What to do to make children grow up healthier is almost every parent's heart disease.
As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books. Getting out and seeing more is really good for the growth of children.
And in the show, children have to learn to live in groups and how to get along with other children. When I go to school in the future, I will be able to better integrate into the group.
Kim Sung-joo fully agreed with Park Jung-hyuk's statement and agreed on the spot.
And Park Jung-hyuk, as the general person in charge of "Where Are You Going, Dad", also told them in front of Kim Youkun and Kim Sung-joo.
He told Jin Youkun that when he was guiding the show, he could give Jin Chengzhu a hint first.
And Kim Sung-joo not only has to be an ordinary acting artist, but also plays the role of a mc without a name.
Kim Sung-joo didn't feel embarrassed by this, he was born as an MC, and he didn't let him host the show, and he still felt uncomfortable.
After a wine and dinner, the first group of cast members of "Where Are You Going, Dad" was determined.
Seeing Park Jung-hyuk's relaxed and comfortable appearance, Kim Youkun was particularly red-eyed.
Only now did he realize that there was still a long difference between himself and this brother.
In the future, we must work harder, otherwise, how can I still call myself Park Jung-hyuk's little brother in the future? (To be continued.) )
