Chapter 34: Stubbornness and Depression
The days of working at the TV station always pass quickly, day and night, and months of time slip away.
In these days, "Infinite Challenge" still has not improved.
No matter what method the program team takes, it will not be able to increase the ratings of the program.
In the fourth phase, Lee Byung-jin and Park Myung-so officially joined.
For Lee Byung-jin, Park Jung-hyuk has no idea. But about Park Myung-so, he mentioned it to Kim Tae-ho emphatically.
He and Kim Tae-ho said that if "Infinite Challenge" wants to achieve glory in the future, Yoo Jae-seok is the soul, and Park Myung-so is the key figure.
But after watching a few episodes of Park Myung-so's appearance, Kim Tae-ho was very skeptical about it.
Park Jung-hyuk couldn't say anything, so he could only hold this matter in his heart.
The current program team is not the master of the house, and there is no way to stimulate Park Myung-so's potential.
But in the sixteenth issue, something happened that made Park Jung-hyuk feel like he should say something.
In August, it's the height of summer.
In the sweltering heat, there's no better project than a cool special.
Of course, "Infinite Challenge" also got such a special.
In the Korean broadcasting industry, the meaning of the cool special is not that it has anything to do with water, sea or anything.
It's better to call it a horror special, it's more appropriate.
Koreans have always believed that when a person is frightened, he will dispel the heat from attack.
From the body to the mind, it will produce a refreshing, cooling effect.
For this cognition, Park Jung-hyuk can only complain.
But he is a small FD, and he only has the share of doing what he is told. At the end, he was dragged to play a ghost to scare the MCs and guests.
In today's special, in addition to the MCs, there are also this year's hottest singer Kim Jong Kook and the hottest girl group jewelry.
Today's Kim Jong Kook is still just the director of Kim, and he has not grown into the scary Sparta that he later had.
Therefore, when performing a terrifying scene, I will pretend to be scared enough and flee with a wolf.
As for jewelry, not to mention, women are born to act and pretend to be presentable.
Among them, Xu Renying actually shed tears, and people who don't know still think how terrifying the scene arranged by the program team is.
Only Kim Tae-ho and Park Jung-hyuk don't like the arrangement of the program team.
According to the two of them, they shouldn't tell the MC and the guests what was arranged.
In this way, the real reactions of these people are more interesting.
Fake shots like this one can't be faker anymore, and it always looks like something is missing.
Because the situation of the show has not improved, Kim Tae-ho is also a little anxious, and took the initiative to put forward his opinion for the first time.
Seeing that the eldest brother said this, Park Jung-hyuk also jumped out and shouted for Kim Tae-ho.
But Kwon Seok, Lee Min Ho and Kim Min Jong all objected.
They all felt that if they didn't tell the guests, it was easy to have accidents.
And if the guests don't know anything, the appearance of the table may not meet the requirements of this issue.
This was the first time that the two sides clashed opinions, and in the end, Kim Tae-ho and Park Jung-hyuk still reserved their opinions.
But even so, during the recording, an accident occurred.
I don't know if it's because I'm too tired, or if I'm not very satisfied with the grouping.
As a result, when playing in groups, Kim Sung-so made a mistake, and a wooden board with nails smashed squarely on Jung Hyung-don's head.
Zheng Hengdun was bleeding and crumbling at that time.
Everyone panicked and rushed up to help Zheng Hengdun treat his wounds.
It stands to reason that because of his mistake that caused Jung Hyung-don's injury, Kim Sung-so should apologize.
But this person, relying on the relationship between the seniors, actually accused Zheng Hengdun on the spot of getting in the way, not enough success, and more than failure.
Don't watch everyone mess around in the show, but in reality, there is a huge gap between seniors and juniors.
Unless the juniors have made great achievements, there is no room to talk back when facing the seniors.
It's a pity that Jung Hyung-dun is still struggling in the middle of Gagman's middle layer. There is a big gap between the top artists.
So when I was hurt and scolded, I couldn't say anything.
Everyone was also very indignant about Kim Sung-so's bullying.
But among the MCs, there is no one with a higher rank than Kim Sung-so for the time being, and he can't suppress his arrogance.
What's more, everyone can see that Kim Sung-so is not such a heinous villain.
It's just that I'm sorry because of my mistakes, and I feel ashamed because I'm sorry, so I can't get off the stage.
In real life, this doesn't happen very often.
There are always people who, after doing something sorry to others, do not sincerely apologize, but blush-necked and blame the other party for not.
But in any case, Kim Sung-so's approach is still very shameful.
Because of the memories of his previous life, Park Jung-hyuk is of course closer to Jung Hyung-don.
Seeing Kim Sung-so scolding, his sense of justice exploded. "Senior, didn't you see that Brother Zheng Hengdun was injured. Even if you don't apologize, you shouldn't be so chattering, right? ”
Before he could finish his words, the scene fell eerily silent.
You must know that although he is only the smallest PD, he is also a PD, and he represents the program group.
Generally speaking, for matters between artists, the program team cannot and will not come forward.
This is an unspoken rule of the workplace that no one has broken for many years.
Now that Park Jung-hyuk is speaking up, the situation is immediately different.
Some surrounding artists and agents will feel that the program team is biased in treating the two artists, Jung Hyung-dun and Kim Sung-so.
Leng Buding was hit by someone, he was still a PD, and Kim Sung-so also fell into a dumb state.
It can be seen that his expression is a little flustered, not as straightforward as just now.
Cool has not been active for many years, and Kim Sung-so has long passed the time of popularity.
Now he is gradually being squeezed out by the entertainment industry and becoming a marginal figure.
He was afraid that his actions would annoy the TV station and lose his hard-won job.
Unlike the surprise of the artist, the people in the program team were taken aback.
No one thought that the busy PD, who is usually stuffy, would jump out at this time.
Kwon Seok's face was very ugly, he glared at Park Jung-hyuk fiercely, and then said to Xi Ni: "Okay, don't surround yourself, just do whatever you have to do." Today's recording has ended, thank you for your hard work, and I hope to cooperate again in the future. ”
The responsible PD spoke, and of course everyone couldn't stay to watch the excitement, and they all scattered with gossip thoughts.
Only the program team stayed, facing a lot of chicken feathers.
Without outsiders, the PDs finally couldn't hold back their temper.
Lee Min-ho pointed at Park Jung-hyuk and accused with an ugly face: "Who allowed you to talk nonsense?" Do you know what the consequences will be? ”
There is no hope of improvement in the work for many days, and no one has adopted a good idea, and Park Jung-hyuk has long been choked up.
The reason why he came out for Zheng Hengdun today is more of a vent of his feelings.
In the face of Lee Min-ho's accusations, Park Jung-hyuk's eyes were full of contempt, and the words he said were even more scathing. "Lord PD, if you have the ability to criticize me and maintain tradition, let's think about how to do a good show. The ratings continue to be so sluggish, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to accuse me. ”
"You ......" Li Minhao was angry and wanted to say something, but in the end he tilted his head helplessly.
With my eyes closed, I couldn't say a word.
The reason why he was so expressional was because he saw the expressions of the people next to him just now.
Everyone's expressions were almost the same as Park Jung-hyuk's, and when they looked at him, they all had obvious contempt.
In this program group, Kwon Seok is more silent than taking overall responsibility.
And the one who can do things the most is actually Li Minhao.
He always blames this, supports that, and shows his authority everywhere.
Everyone has had enough of it, but they dare not speak out.
Now that the quality of the program has not improved, and the ratings have never gone up, he doesn't think of a way in this regard.
But looking for an opportunity, the subordinate opened the knife and stood up, how could it not make people's teeth cold?
Although everyone dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, since Park Jung-hyuk said it, it also represented everyone's voice.
Seeing Park Jung-hyuk committing the next offense, Kwon Seok stood up and said it, proving the reason why this person is only suitable for firefighting PD, but he can't become a top-level PD.
He did not forcefully suppress Park Jung-hyuk's offense, but waved his hand, stood in the middle and scolded: "Okay, what are you arguing like this?" The program team is currently in a critical juncture, and everyone should be united. ”
Park Jung-hyuk saw that Kwon Seok didn't suppress him, and he was a lot more emboldened, so he quickly made his voice heard. "PD, I don't think it's right to let Park Myung-so get off. As long as this person discovers well, there are still many bright spots. ”
As it turned out, Park Jung-hyuk was happy too soon.
Although Kwon Seok did not show the authority of the PD to treat him, it does not mean that he will listen to his opinion as an FD.
Waving his hand impatiently, Kwon Seok still arranged the task according to his own ideas. "Well, no more. A Park Myung-so, what's so great. The guest of the next issue is the top star Che Shengyuan, as long as we make zuò well, we will definitely conquer the audience's appetite. ”
Park Jung-hyuk was suffocated with a sigh of relief, and his face was red from the inside out.
Kwon Seok's attitude made what he did just now look like a monkey on a tree.
I thought I was jumping up and down very remarkably, but in the eyes of others, I was just a dispensable little shrimp.
This kind of tangible feeling made Park Jung-hyuk very hurt.
After everyone dispersed, he waved his hand violently, scolded "Xiba" into the air, and walked home alone.
Tonight's night is full of stars, as if countless eyes are watching him alone.
There is no room for talent and no show, which is the so-called nostalgia.
In the past, Park Jung-hyuk had only seen this situation in books, and it was all used to describe great talents and great writers.
Now, he actually has a similar feeling.
The work was very unsmooth, and his walking steps became heavier and heavier.
Just as he was feeling, he couldn't see the slightest glimmer of hope.
