Chapter 38: Final Lineup [Part 4]
"I don't agree to join the Canadian representative, there is already a representative of the United States in North America, and there are so many similarities between the United States and Canada that the roles will overlap. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
As soon as the meeting began, the discussion on the representative of Canada, Guillaume, was very intense.
The busy writers in the program team were not stage frightened at all, and they came up and put forward their own reasons.
JTBC is a new TV station, and even the people are new, so naturally there are not so many rules of superiority and inferiority. Everyone has the right to speak, and everyone has a platform to express their opinions and realize their own value.
However, the busy writer is not without his opponents.
The busy PD of the program team has the opposite opinion to her.
"We should not only see the disadvantages of the proximity of Canada and the United States, but also the prominence of Guillaume as a person. He wasn't just Canadian, he was the best esports player in the world back then. In today's society, young people love to play video games. However, there has always been a prejudice against video games in the mainstream of society. If we introduce such a representative to our program, then we will be able to get the recognition of young people who like games and increase our viewership. ”
The sprinkling of views impressed everyone, and even Park Jung-hyuk felt refreshing.
Previously, he had always believed that the reason why the "Non-Summit" in his previous life did not replace Guillaume was because he signed a brokerage contract with JTBC.
But after listening to the statement of PD, he realized that he had also ignored an important factor.
"How? Do you have any comments? ”
Sun Daoxun pushed his eyes and said seriously: "I agree with the words of the busy writer, our program is a novel genre, and it should resonate and interact with young people." ”
Then everyone voted by a show of hands, and Canada's Guillaume officially became the eighth member of the "Summit" with eight votes in favor and three votes against.
When the program team came up with the other two candidates collected, Park Jung-hyuk gave his opinion.
"This Belgian Julien is a little bit better, and this French Robus is better than I've seen in other places. Although he is very handsome, he is taciturn and not as enthusiastic as Julian, so he is more suitable. ”
With Park Jung-hyuk's words, the program team had nothing to say, and between Julian of Belgium and Robbie of France, the former was finally chosen.
In the original "Non-Summit", Julian and Robbie were selected together. However, Robbie's performance was so poor that Park Jung-hyuk was completely unsightly.
In addition, Belgium and France are adjacent to each other, Julien can also speak French, plus Guillaume, who also knows French, there is no need for Robbie in France.
"Director, PD, our writers' group discussed that Asia is very big, and the cultures of each region are very different, so it is best to have a candidate from South Asia among the regular guests."
This is a very good suggestion, and Park Jung-hyuk praised it and asked, "Do you have a suitable option?" ”
With the approval of the director, the main writer was very happy.
"Yes, one is Lucky from India and the other is Zahad from Pakistan."
Park Jung-hyuk heard it, these are not the two regular guests who also joined the "Non-Summit Talks" in their previous lives.
However, of these two people, he considered it and gave his opinion.
"Choose Lucky, he has been running a business in South Korea for many years and has been to many places in the world. Moreover, India is the largest country in South Asia, which is more representative. ”
Zahad's performance can't be said to be bad, but compared to Lucky, it is still far worse.
Lucky has an optimistic and easy-going personality that is characteristic of Indians, and is very good at self-deprecation. He never shy away from the shortcomings of his own country, and he is a good pistachio.
In this way, there is one empty seat left for the regular guests.
"I recommend Enes in Turkey, he is very popular among foreigners. According to our survey, he has a great sense of humor and a talent for debate. ”
The writers' group gave their opinions, and the PD group really had alternates.
"If you want to choose guests from the Middle East, Andrea of Greece is not bad. He was equally popular at school, and just as humorous and funny. ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, the world is a big one, and there are still many things we have overlooked. For example, in Northern Europe, I know a very interesting person, Nikolai from Norway. ”
"In that case, we're ignoring one of the largest countries in the world. Russia's Ilya is also very popular, and the three largest countries of China, the United States, and Russia are gathered together, isn't it more interesting? ”
Everyone has an idea, everyone has a set of opinions, and no one can convince anyone. For a while, the conference room turned into a vegetable market.
Seeing that everyone was arguing, this was not a solution, and Sun Daoxun had to interrupt them.
"Okay, okay, let's stop arguing. Since everyone's opinions can't be unanimous, let's listen to the director's opinion. ”
In fact, when everyone was discussing, Park Jung-hyuk's brain was also spinning.
South Korea is so big, so there are naturally so many foreigners. And among them, there are even fewer suitable for shows.
So everyone picked and chosen, and all the candidates given were all those who appeared in the "Non-Summit" in the previous life.
Park Jung-hyuk pretended to be flipping through the information, but in fact, he was struggling in his heart.
And unlike everyone thinks, he doesn't know which one to choose in the face of so many candidates, but just for one person.
That is Turkey's Enes.
There's no way, this guy was too amazing in the early days of "Non-Summit Talks" in his previous life.
With a sharp speech and an endless stream of proverbs, he single-handedly confronts the overall Western view without falling behind.
To put it bluntly, the popularity of "Non-summit Talks" is directly related to his wonderful performance in the early stage.
But the problem is that this guy himself is not very clean, and the woman is not clear.
Especially during the period when his wife is pregnant, he also pretends to be single to seduce women. After the result was exposed, he became infamous and had to get out of the car.
Choosing such a person, the risk is there, so that Park Jung-hyuk can not be careful.
But the problem is that the other alternates are not half a point worse than Enes.
Since this guy got off the bus, Zhang Yuan, who also holds conservative views, has been stumbling left and right, and he can't stop the siege of groups of Western representatives at all.
Should I choose him or not?
When everyone's eyes looked over, Park Jung-hyuk fell into a tangle.
I have to say that after working in the media industry for a long time, people's hearts will become hard.
After a long time of repeated thinking, Park Jung-hyuk finally slapped the table.
"Just choose Enes in Turkey, I've heard of his fame. Trust him to be someone who will be helpful to our show. ”
Although Enes is a ticking time bomb, since it has helped the show a lot, Park Jung-hyuk can only choose to ignore it.
Anyway, if his problem is really exposed, he will have to give it up happily.
This is the black heart of the media industry, which should be used when it should be used, and abandoned when it should be abandoned.
You can't die with him, Park Jung-hyuk doesn't feel like that.
Because of his final word, the lineup of the new version of "Non-Summit" was decided.
Because of the composition of the personnel, it is much stronger than when it was at the beginning of the previous life. Park Jung-hyuk believes that this "non-summit meeting" will definitely do better.
Back at Lua Entertainment, he personally found Zhang Yu'an.
"JTBC produced a program where all foreigners gathered. I've already arranged you in, and someone from the program team will contact you soon to discuss the issue of starring. ”
"I ...... I'm going to be on TV? ”
Zhang Yu'an was still a little confused and surprised, and he looked at a loss, he was completely a simple young man.
"Eh, it's not like you haven't done a show, why are you so excited?" Park Jung-hyuk dislikes authenticity.
Zhang Yu'an used to be a TV anchor when he was in China, so he is no stranger to the camera. It's just that he hasn't starred in variety shows, and he doesn't have a phobia of cameras.
Park Jung-hyuk was concerned about other issues.
"Recently, you have been asked to pay attention to the domestic network, have you gained anything? Did the views of those netizens open your eyes? ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Yu'an's head is like pounding garlic, and he keeps ordering.
"Director, how do you know about the Internet situation in China? I really don't know if I don't see it, those netizens in China are really amazing. A lot of the questions, I used to think that was the case. But after reading their analysis, I realized that there were so many novel ideas. ”
Seeing that he really did what he was told, Park Jung-hyuk was very happy.
"That's good, don't slack off in the future. Many of these things you see will become material for your performance in the show. Didn't Confucius say that it is fun to learn and learn it. Studying more while doing the show will be very helpful for your improvement. ”
In the previous life, those Chinese guests who starred in the show were often complained about because their views were very backward and they seriously lacked the necessary knowledge reserves.
As a result, because the view of the affairs is not comprehensive enough, and it is divorced from the actual environment in China, many things that are said are not satisfactory.
After recruiting Jang Yu-an into Lua Entertainment, the first thing Park Jung-hyuk asked him to do was to always pay attention to domestic online public opinion and rebuild his consciousness.
Park Jung-hyuk focused on recommending many places with fierce views such as Tianya, Zhihu, World War II, and Natu Bar, and the result was that Jang Yuan accepted the baptism of new views one after another.
People are like this, they have their own personal experience and experience, and they have the baptism of new ideas, and they can suddenly make a very significant improvement.
I believe that such an armed Zhang Yu'an will definitely have good combat power against those Westerners in the show.
"When you're doing a show, you don't have to worry about it. If it's what you want to say, just say it. Don't be afraid of controversy either, there is no topic without controversy. Of course, how to win a debate requires a lot of intelligence. I'm not there, and I can't teach you this, it's all up to you. ”
There are some things that Park Jung-hyuk can't tell Jang Yu-an.
He has sternly warned the program team that when recording and editing, bias is not allowed.
As a broadcast platform for programs, the most important thing for JTBC to do is to remain neutral.
Even if there are some words that Koreans don't like to hear, you can't maliciously edit them because of your own preferences.
In his previous life, Zhang Yu'an, as well as other Chinese guests, all encountered similar situations.
A lot of times, what the show reacts to when it airs is not what they say at the time. But the South Korean program team has an inexplicable and unclear prejudice, which has caused such a situation.
Now, Park Jung-hyuk is in charge.
He has already warned the program team that if anyone dares to do this again and play the role of pulling the bias, then don't blame him for playing a hot hand.
Now that he is covering the sky with one hand in the JTBC Arts Bureau, he has to take a good look, who dares to go against his will? (To be continued.) )
