Chapter 804: Commands; contemplation
After a few casual conversations about the outlook for old age, the conversation between the two returned to the current matter.
Lin Zhixiu said: "Boss, yesterday the "RunningMan" program team sent an email, saying that because of your appearance, the ratings of "RunningMan" have increased a lot, so I would like to express my gratitude to you, and hope that you can appear in this show again after a while." ”
"Oh, the episode of RunningMan that I starred in two weeks ago has already aired?" Zhang Chengyuan didn't know about it yet.
"Yes, it was just aired the night before yesterday."
"What are the ratings?"
"The national rating is 13.2 percent."
Zhang Chengyuan said with some disappointment: "It's not good, huh?" ”
"But it's nearly 5% higher than the previous episodes, and this is also the highest rating of "RunningMan" since it started, so you deserve to be the 'guarantee of ratings', boss." ”
Zhang Chengyuan said disapprerovingly: "If I am really the 'guarantee of ratings', then the ratings will not only be 13.2%, but more than 20%." And this 5% increase is not all due to me alone, Song Qian and Park Junkui's predecessors also have a share. ”
Lin Zhixiu said: "Boss, how to reply to the invitation of the program team?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Help me refuse." I often participate in variety shows, and this time I can have a rating of 13.2%, it is estimated that it is just a fluke, maybe the audience has not seen me participate in an outdoor variety show for a long time to give face, but next time it may not be. Case. Of course I can't attend. lest the ratings drop too much when he appears for the second time and lose face. ”
Lin Zhixiu said: "But didn't you make an appointment with Liu Zaishi's predecessor to participate in this show again?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "I made an appointment with Brother Shi next year, not now, and just looking at the invitation sent by the program team, not Brother Shi personally called me to tell me, I know that this invitation is not what he meant, so why should I give face to the program team?" ”
Lin Zhixiu said: "Then I'll ask someone to help you refuse tomorrow." ”
Zhang Chengyuan nodded slightly, and then asked casually: "For me and Song Qian's performance in "RunningMan". What are the audience and media sayings? ”
Lin Zhixiu said: "The evaluation is okay, saying that the scene where you and Song Qian hid on the wall and escaped with her behind her back is more interesting." But there are still many people who say that you can't put down your face and are not funny enough. ”
Zhang Chengyuan sneered slightly: "If I really put down my face to be funny, I'm afraid that some people will say that I don't cherish my image." Moreover, I am an actor, not a comedy artist, so why do I need to pretend to be ugly and play treasure to please the audience? Some boring people just don't know what to say, as if a star artist must live according to his will. Well, let's not talk about that, Jisoo. There's something you need help with. ”
"What's the matter?"
Zhang Chengyuan said: "A few days ago, Yun'er told me when they took a plane to Japan. I thought that after a while, after they finished their activities in Japan, I would send their special plane back to the original manufacturer and let them find a way to add a complete parachute system. ”
Lin Zhixiu said: "Boss, this matter is a bit unrealistic. Although technically achievable, the Boeing BBJ3 is not a small business jet, and if you want to install a complete parachute system, then the parachute must be larger, more numerous, and heavier, which reduces the payload of the aircraft, forcing you to reduce the number of passengers or remove some facilities on the aircraft, which may not meet the needs of those girls and their agent team.
Maybe you can reorder a bigger plane, maybe it will meet the needs of Taeyeon and the whole parachute system according to your requirements. However, in that case, it may attract too much public attention and attract a lot of criticism. ”
Zhang Chengyuan sighed and said, "This is really troublesome. After thinking about it, he added: "Life safety is more important than criticism, and the criticism of the media and the public can be settled by money or other means, so let's modify a larger plane according to your order." ”
Lin Zhixiu said: "I know, but if you want to reorder an aircraft and modify it, it will definitely not be completed until next year." ”
Jang Sung-won said: "It's nothing, anyway, Taeyeon and her sisters are going to start their second Japanese event, and it should have to wait until next year." In the meantime, let's use the current Boeing BBJ3 first. ”
Lin Zhixiu said: "So should your special plane that is being modified also be equipped with a parachute system?" Your plane is for you alone, so you don't have to worry about the load capacity. ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "In this case, let's pretend, although I may not die if I fall off the plane, but one more life-saving measure is not bad." ”
Of course, if it is only a few hundred meters or thousands of meters in the air, he will not die, if it is 10,000 meters in the air, he is no matter how capable he is, and he will die, but the general plane crash is usually only at the stage of just taking off and descending on the ground. And as long as he doesn't die, even if he is seriously injured, he will most likely be able to recover with his means.
Lin Jixiu nodded in response.
After that, Zhang Chengyuan looked at the script again, and chatted with Lin Zhixiu about the situation of some companies under his name, after all, as a boss, he had to know a little about these things, and at this time, he just had some time, so he asked.
After about twenty minutes, he finished reading the script in his hand, then turned the topic back and said, "Jisoo, the play "Secret Garden" is very good, and I can also star with Sister Hailin again, so I am ready to take over this drama, well, you will send someone to negotiate the contract with the production company tomorrow." ”
Lin Zhixiu nodded and said, "Boss, do you want to mention any strings?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan thought for a while and said: "It's still the same, let the crew allow me to take one or two days off a week, and try to integrate my scenes together." As for the rest, yes. That's right. There is a scene in this play where a man and a man kiss unexpectedly. You asked the crew to change it, saying that I would never shoot a scene of making out with a man, even if it was an accident. In addition, I don't need to ask the crew for too high a salary, so as not to damage my reputation and affect the quality of the TV series in the future. "If the salary he asks for is too high, it will inevitably reduce the production budget of the TV series, which will affect the quality of the shooting.
Lin Zhixiu said: "I wrote it down." But. Boss, how much do you think is the right salary? ”
Jang Sung-won thought for a while and said: "Just like when filming "IRIS", 30 million won per episode, if it is high, it will cause controversy and other evil consequences, and if it is low, it will make me too cheap, so 30 million per episode should be more appropriate." ”
Although the current upper limit of actors' salaries stipulated by the Korean TV Drama Association is 15 million per episode, this does not apply to first-line Hallyu stars, many Hallyu stars have a salary of about 20 or 30 million, and some are as high as 50 million or even more than 100 million, so with Zhang Sungwon's status and popularity at this time. He only asked for 30 million per episode, which is already very ethical in the industry. Of course, this is also because he is not short of money at all now - he doesn't even want to earn advertising endorsement fees. Not to mention the salary.
Lin Zhixiu nodded again, indicating that she remembered, and then asked, "In addition to these requirements, boss, do you have any other special requirements?" ”
Zhang Chengyuan said: "No, you can do the rest." But remember not to fight for too high a salary for me, you know that when I was filming, I didn't care too much about accommodation, food, travel and other aspects. ”
Lin Zhixiu said with a smile: "I didn't expect the crew to provide high remuneration in these aspects, so we can solve it ourselves." ”
Zhang Chengyuan nodded and said, "Well, let's solve it ourselves." If he could be blessed, he would not choose to suffer.
At this point, the things that should be talked about have been discussed, and Zhang Chengyuan left Lin Zhixiu's office and went back to his apartment upstairs, after all, Lin Zhixiu still has a lot of things to deal with, and he is not too disturbed.
After returning to the apartment, he made a pot of tea, and then while drinking tea, he thought about his thoughts at will, thinking about the sisters' voices and smiles for a while, thinking about Lin Shuyan for a while, and suddenly thinking of Shin Min'er for a while, thinking that this woman has a good heart, good looks, and good figure, and has never heard that she has a boyfriend, if you have the opportunity, you can be close to her, so that she can become the third woman to maintain a pure physical relationship with him after Han Yise and Kong Hyunzhu.
The reason why he started this idea again was because he felt that only Han Yiseol and Kong Hyun-joo were not safe, and maybe after a while, they would be disgusted with the current relationship with him, and thus terminate their "physical cooperation" with him, so that if they found other women who matched his heart, they would definitely be in a hurry and too late. Therefore, it is important to plan ahead and be prepared.
And this idea, he actually didn't have it after seeing Shen Min'er, but he had this idea for a long time, and he has been looking for a target, but because his requirements are too high, it is not easy to find, and he currently thinks that Shen Min'er is suitable. But Shin Min Ah is obviously not easy to approach, because he can't find any reason to approach her, so it is very likely that he can only think about it and not act on it.
Of course, if he can't have anything to do with Shin Min'er, he won't feel very sorry, after all, he is not in love with her, and there are so many beauties in the entertainment industry, as long as he is willing to find it, or lower his requirements a little, then there are other objects to choose from.
After thinking about Shin Min Ah for a while, he thought of Park Xuan Ying again, this girl seems to have some admiration for him, but she doesn't seem to want to be with him, not as crisp and refreshing as Lin Yun Ah, and although he has long regarded her as one of his future women, but because he had promised Lin Ji so that Park Xuan Ying would be given a few years of free love and could not pursue her for the time being, he could only leave him by her heart at present.
Fortunately, she didn't avoid him, she still liked to get along with him, and she didn't like other men, so it would be okay to wait for her for a few more years, he had this patience. Of course, you can't wait, you have to contact her from time to time to exchange feelings. Thinking of this, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Park Xuanying's number, asking her to come to his apartment to meet him. (To be continued......)
