Chapter 42: Convincing the Devil
"Ah, you kid too, why are you fighting against PD?"
Because of the way, after the three of them broke up, Ji Young drove Park Jung-hyuk back.
Halfway through, talking about the dispute just now, he opened his mouth to complain about Park Jung-hyuk.
The matter has passed, and he has also got the result he wants, and Park Jung-hyuk is in a good mood. "Brother, we're just arguing over work, it's not a big deal. In the future, such things will be indispensable, so you can't help but express your opinion, right? ”
Ji Yingcai gave him a blank look and revealed a little bit of the inside story. "Do you think the PD is willing to bring those people on board? In order to make the show go smoothly, he made a compromise with the bureau. ”
Park Jung-hyuk suddenly got up and asked in surprise, "Did the bureau stuff people inside?" ”
Ji Yingcai looked ahead, with a mockery on the corner of his mouth. "What do you think, which of those artists doesn't matter in the TV station? After finding their own way, this is the current result. PD: If he doesn't agree, I don't know if the show can continue. ”
Park Jung-hyuk's face slowly appeared ashamed, his head was lowered, and his nose was a little sour.
He didn't expect that in a place he couldn't see, Kim Tae-ho was actually under so much pressure.
But the eldest brother never revealed a word, and he was always full of confidence in front of him.
And not only did he not understand his hard work, but he also used things to do things against him.
He is like an ignorant child, and he keeps making trouble when he is most tired.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy and guilty Park Jung-hyuk felt.
Of course, Ji Yingcai noticed his expression and said with relief: "Okay, you don't have to be like this." Like you said, everybody's here for work. As long as we do the show well, the pressure on PD will be reduced. ”
Speaking of this, he remembered something and ordered: "By the way, Park Myung-so was recommended by you, so you should contact him personally." At present, there are only three of us left in the program group, and you also have to share some more work. ”
Park Jung-hyuk couldn't have worked more.
What's more, he is no longer an FD who does miscellaneous work, but an AD who is in charge of the program production.
"Okay, I'll leave this task to me." He happily agreed.
When I got home, it was late.
The lights in Lu Chonghan's room have been turned off, and Park Jung-hoon still hasn't returned.
For this elusive brother, Park Jung-hyuk is also speechless.
Although it was already late at night, he thought that the artist's routine was not so regular, so Park Jung-hyuk found the phone number of Park Myung-so's agent and dialed it.
Sure enough, I didn't sleep over there, and it was connected quickly.
After reporting his identity, Park Jung-hyuk stated his purpose. "After discussion with our program team, I think that Mr. Park Myung-so's characteristics are very suitable for the requirements of the program, so I want to invite him to be a regular MC again, please help convey it."
The other party is just an agent, so naturally he can't make a decision for Park Myung-so, so he just agreed. "PD, don't worry, I'll convey the past right away. Mr. Park Myung-so is currently recording the program, if he can, will he be able to report the results tomorrow? ”
"Of course it's no problem, but please do your best, I can't afford to delay the recording of the show." Park Jung-hyuk still reminded him slightly.
He only got a reply from Park Myung-so Fang after he arrived at MBC the next morning. "I'm sorry, PD, Mr. Park Myung-so said that since he has already gotten off the show, he has no intention of going back."
Park Jung-hyuk covered his forehead, full of helplessness.
When he proposed to bring Park Myung-so back, he thought about this problem.
However, thinking about the history of the previous life, Park Myung-so also quit and came back, so it should be easier.
didn't expect that the other party still had the self-esteem of an artist, so he flatly refused.
Of course, Park Jung-hyuk can't accept this result, otherwise "Infinite Challenge" will become different from what he is familiar with.
Thinking so, he said anxiously: "Mr. Broker, maybe you haven't fully conveyed our sincerity. I wonder what Mr. Park Myung-so has on his agenda today? I can talk to him in person. ”
There was a muttering on the other end of the phone, and then the agent replied. "Mr. Park Myung-so will go to MBC at noon to record the program, and if we can, we can meet at the café."
It's better now, Park Jung-hyuk hurriedly finalized: "That's it, see you or leave." ”
At two o'clock in the afternoon, when he came to the café, Park Myung-so and his agent were already waiting there.
Not only that, but coffee was also set on the table.
It seems that although this person likes to scold people, his mind is still very delicate, and he is also well versed in the method of interacting with people.
Seeing Park Jung-hyuk coming over, Park Myung-so recognized it at a glance. "Ah, busy PD, it turned out to be you."
Park Jung-hyuk walked over with a smile and shook hands with Park Myung-so, and said with a smile: "Senior, why did you refuse so simply?" I would like to invite you. ”
"What, has your program team been replaced?" Park Myung-so asked gossipingly.
After everyone sat down, Park Jung-hyuk did not hide it. "The ratings of the previous show were not good, and the Arts Bureau was ready to stop broadcasting. It was Brother Tae Hao who stood up and took over the right to control the zuò. The current program group, Brother Tai Hao is the responsible PD, Ji Yingcai PD is the second system zuò person, and I am the third PD. ”
"Ah, congratulations. If I'm not mistaken, you only joined this year, and you were promoted to AD so quickly. Park Myung-so looked at Park Jung-hyuk in amazement and praised him lavishly.
He is an artist from MBC himself, and he still knows a lot about the workplace in TV stations.
I know that the average newcomer has to stay up for at least three years before he can be promoted to AD.
As for when to become a PD who is in charge of himself, it depends on chance.
If you're lucky, just like Kim Tae-ho, you're now a PD; If you're unlucky, it's not uncommon to wait five or six years.
Park Jung-hyuk smiled reservedly and said modestly: "I was also lucky, I happened to meet the program team adaptation, and Brother Tae Ho kept me." There were not enough people, so I had to use them to make up the numbers. ”
Park Myung-so was more concerned about his own affairs, and he asked curiously, "Did Kim Tae-ho PD ask me to go back?" ”
"Uh......" Park Jung-hyuk originally planned to tell the truth, but when the words came to his lips, he immediately changed his mind. yes, yes, Kim Tae-ho PD feels that there is still a lot to play in the performance of his predecessors. And it is the characteristics of the predecessors that will be an important means of enriching the program. It can be said that if there is no seniors joining, the show will definitely be greatly reduced. ”
Park Myung-so was eliminated once, and his mind became extraordinarily sensitive.
If he said that Kim Tae-ho had no intention of letting him go back, and it was all his idea, how could Park Myung-so agree?
So in order to increase his weight, he had to open his eyes and tell nonsense and sell Kim Tae-ho.
Although Park Myung-so has a bad temper, his ears are soft. Listening to Park Jung-hyuk's no-cost touting, his expression was a little fluttery.
Seeing this, Park Jung-hyuk continued to increase the conditions. "Senior, you can rest assured, after you return this time, I will be in charge of your part. If you have any ideas, you can tell me, and I will arrange them as appropriate to ensure that the seniors show their best condition and best performance. ”
"Are you really in charge?" Park Myung-so was clearly moved.
Park Jung-hyuk has already entered the state, his small eyes are full of sincerity, and he is more professional than those who engage in pyramid schemes. "Seniors, don't worry, our PD has already said that this time we will not restrict the performance of seniors. When you record, you can do it exactly as you want without thinking about the script. What we want is the true temperament of the predecessors, not hypocritical, in that case, it will be in stark contrast to all the current programs, and it will be able to highlight the image of the predecessors at once, right? ”
While making things up wantonly, he recited Amitabha Buddha in his heart.
"Infinite Challenge" will not restrict Park Myung-so's play from the script from now on, because he can't see the script at all.
Not only him, but also Zheng Hengdun, Lu Hongzhe and others have not seen what the script is like.
Among the seven people in the &nbC Legion, only Liu Zaishi knows the content of the shooting.
The remaining six people, just follow along.
Park Jung-hyuk's choice of words and sentences obviously won Confucius's ability to criticize the Spring and Autumn Period, and the deletion was in place.
"Ah, you still know me!" Park Myung-so shook his head, obviously already in the alley.
Turning his head, he asked the agent, "Do you think I should go back?" ”
The agent was very honest and said: "Anyway, you don't have any job now, so it's better to settle down and make more money so that I can pay my salary." ”
"Ah, why do you talk about everything?" Park Myung-so was shocked and covered his agent's mouth in a panic.
Looking at their appearance, Park Jung-hyuk couldn't help but hold his stomach and laugh.
It's no wonder that when "Infinite Challenge" was recorded, I always liked to pull up the agents, assistants, and relatives of these guys, it turned out that they were all so interesting.
The agent leaked all the old bottoms, and Park Myung-so couldn't get angry.
In fact, in the past two years, Park Myung-so's career has reached a bottleneck period, and he has not made any progress.
No matter what show he starred in, the table was not satisfactory.
Over time, there were fewer and fewer invitations to him, and he had gradually entered a state of idleness.
Park Myung-so was also very anxious about this, and kept thinking of a way, but he couldn't see any improvement.
Now that "Infinite Challenge" has reappeared in invitation, although it is a bit unsightly to enter the palace twice, a fixed job opportunity means a fixed income, which is better than doing nothing.
Moved by the will, Park Myung-so tried to ask, "That PD, how much is my acting fee?" ”
Although it was agreed with the Arts and Energy Bureau, the MC's appearance fee is not included in the production fee. But how much money to give to the artist is still up to the program team.
Kim Tae-ho had already given Park Jung-hyuk a standard before, so he said truthfully: "That's the case, the senior's starring fee is 2.5 million yuan per episode, and the travel expenses, board and lodging expenses are calculated separately." ”
Park Myung-so calculated that the first phase is 2.5 million, and the four installments a month represent a fixed income of 10 million.
For him, who is currently lacking a job, this expense is precious.
After figuring it out, he finally nodded. "Okay, when am I going to report?"
