Peninsula: The Great Producer

Chapter 135 Oppa, I feel like I’m finished
(At the end, I recommend this book, written by IU. Those who like to read IU should go and read it. It’s a very good book.)

Qi Yaojiu smiled, clapped his hands and said, "For other positions, we'll first look for university students who need internship experience. We don't have much money in the early stages, so this is the only way. Also, after the company is established, the first program will be in collaboration with K Broadcasting Station. Director Nim has already agreed with me."

Including Choi Jinna, the three of them looked at Qi Yaojiu with shocked eyes.

Writer Lee Eun-young confirmed, "Really?"

Qi Yaojiu nodded heavily and said, "Really, so for the time being, I won't discuss cooperation with Director Cui Renying."

"Director Choi In-young? Who?"

Qi Yaojiu didn't answer, but just looked at Choi Jinna again.

Today is a showdown with the team, and it seems like Choi Jinna should say something too.

At least, this will help boost the confidence of those who decided to leave the broadcasting station together, right?

It is necessary to draw pie in the sky.

It is also necessary to make everyone feel that the pie in the sky can be eaten soon.

Choi Jinna knew what Ki Yo-gu was thinking, and she crossed her arms over her chest and said slowly, "Director Choi In-young of the S Broadcasting Station's Entertainment Center, my mother."

Perhaps Lee Eun-young and Kim Ji-hwan's decision to leave the broadcasting station together before Choi Jin-na revealed her identity was more due to their trust in Ki Yo-gu's talent.

The achievements are obvious to all, and Qi Yaojiu honestly told them that the early stages will be very difficult. They believe that with Qi Yaojiu's talent, he will definitely be able to turn things around.

After hearing Choi Jinna reveal her identity, Lee Eun-young and Kim Ji-hwan's first reaction was that they were too naive.

That was Qi Yaojiu, a man highly regarded by the top brass of the broadcasting station, a man that both the Entertainment Center and the TV Drama Center were vying for.

Such a person will surely be very successful in the broadcasting station. He may even be promoted to the position of department director before the age of 35, and may even become a big shot like vice president or president in the future.

Why would he leave? Is he crazy? His salary is not low, his bonus is generous, and he has unique support.

Now we finally know that Qi Yaojiu's decision to leave the broadcasting station was made after careful consideration.

This must be one of the reasons why it is difficult not to get rich if you hold the copyright in your own hands. People are greedy for money and fame, and they always want to have one of them.

But I didn’t expect that Qi Yaojiu’s confidence in leaving the broadcasting station was not just because of his personal talent.

Director Park Jong-min promised to continue working with Ki Yo-gu's team who left the broadcasting station, which is not an easy thing to do.

What's more, in addition to Director Park Jong-min, Ji Yaojiu actually has a backup plan. Choi Jinna, who usually gets along well with everyone and looks no different, is actually the daughter of Choi In-young, Director of the S Broadcasting Station's Entertainment Center.

At the end, Choi Jinna also revealed other information to Lee Eun-young and Kim Ji-hwan, such as Director Park Jong-min and her mother are not the only choices for Ki Yo-gu. In addition to these two potential partners, there is also PD Lee Myung-han who left K Broadcasting Station to go to TVN.

After suddenly realizing it, Li Enying and Jin Zhihuan's spirit and appearance changed.

This is the kind of person who can accomplish great things. He looks three steps ahead, is calm and low-key, and thinks of and plans for all possibilities before doing anything. His courage is no joke.

Qi Yaojiu was still advising the two to keep a low profile. At least they still had to work at the broadcasting station for two months to film "Shining Legacy" well and add the last and most honorable chapter to their resumes at the broadcasting station.

It's not that we have to leave the broadcasting station and start our own business right now, nor is it that we can immediately become the top producer team of the H Country Broadcasting Station after we become independent.

The two were almost forced to write a letter of guarantee. Fortunately, they kept brainwashing themselves to forget what they heard today. It would be okay if their memory disappeared temporarily for two months.

Life is still dull.

There is an extraordinary undercurrent in the ordinary.

After being called to the director's office, Yoon Ji-hye no longer paid attention to Ki Yo-gu and his production team. She focused on thinking about the planning plan for the new program every day with the other people in Planning Group 1.

The TV series "Brilliant Legacy" also broke the 4% viewership mark after the fourth episode was aired on April 16, and began to dominate the national TV series ratings in that time period from the fifth episode aired on the 20nd.

During this period, Qi Yaojiu did two other things in addition to being responsible for on-site shooting and backstage editing.

One thing is that he rented a studio in Hongdae Sinchon with a deposit of 1000 million H won and a monthly rent of 58 H won.

The studio is a new building that was renovated and delivered two years ago. It has an elevator and the landlord also provided some household appliances needed for daily life. Qi Yaojiu simply vacated the living room and bought an office desk, computer printer and other equipment at the second-hand market.

Of course, this amount of money was all the assets that Qi Yaojiu could take out, and part of it was the bonus advanced by the TV drama production center.

Apparently, Director Kim Hye-joo also heard the news from Director Park Jong-min that Ki Yo-gu was leaving the broadcasting station, but she didn't say much. She just expressed regret, blessings, and some polite words, telling him to feel free to ask if he needed any help.

Another thing is that Ki Yo-gu took some time out of his busy schedule to meet Lee Ji-eun for dinner on April 4th.

It was still at the BBQ restaurant in Samseong-dong. It felt like the person who needed to dress up was Ki Yo-gu, not IU.

At least when the two met, Qi Yaojiu looked directly at Li Zhien and said, "Is there no one in your company with aesthetic taste? If you say you are 50 years old now, people will believe it."

Li Zhien pouted and grumbled aggrievedly, "I told my agent Oppa about this during the MV shoot, but it was no use. The company's planning team just decided on the album style."

Qi Yaojiu was neither laughing nor angry.

He touched up Li Zhien's permed hair, which only a 50-year-old woman would like, and sighed: "You need to quickly gain more popularity and recognition. Even if you have the confidence to bear it, you will collapse sooner or later."

"Oppa"

"I'm serious. You'll definitely know something after the MV is released."

IU was silent.

She read some of the comments online after the MV was released, and they all mocked her new look. A small number of people said that Leon Company had no vision and asked why they would promote such a solo singer. It felt like they were all targeting Lee Ji-eun.

Inside the barbecue restaurant, Ji Yaojiu took out Lee Ji-eun's first official album from his bag.

"Future big star, please sign an autograph for me."

Li Zhien muttered: "Doesn't Oppa dislike me in various ways?"

Qi Yaojiu took out the pen that Li Zhien had given him earlier, opened the album CD box, and flipped to the first page of the main promotional poster. He pointed to the out-of-place photo of Li Zhien with curly hair, a short black skirt, and a lollipop, looking cute, and said, "Sign here."

Picking up the pen, Li Zhien confirmed: "Oppa, are you serious? You want me to sign here?"

Qi Yaojiu nodded and said, "Seriously, sign here. If I notice you getting carried away by your fame, I'll use this on the show to remind you to stay true to your roots and remember how you got here. Sign it."

It's well-intentioned, but seems too cruel.

Li Zhien signed, and said after signing very unhappily: "Oppa, I feel like I'm finished."

This feeling is not something that has only appeared now. Lee Ji-eun had this feeling since the MV filming started. She only mentioned her thoughts to her agent Bae Jong-han. Apart from Bae Jong-han, Ki Yo-gu was the second person to hear her true thoughts.

Moreover, Lee Ji-eun cares more about what Ki Yo-gu will say because she knows he will definitely say something.

Surprisingly, what Qi Yaojiu said was: "What are you talking about? I'm leaving the broadcasting station soon."
