Peninsula: The Great Producer

Li Zhien muttered that there was no need to tell Qi Yaojiu.

In her heart, IU was also curious about how Ki Yo-gu would react after knowing this. Would he be jealous? To be honest, IU hoped Ki Yo-gu would be jealous. It was okay not to sing this song. Anyway, with Ki Yo-gu around, IU didn't need to worry about her acting career at all.

The third weekend of April.

Yeouido, K Broadcasting Station Headquarters.

Around 9 o'clock in the morning, Bae Jong-han drove Li Zhien there.

Second floor, studio.

There was a recording of "Music Bank" today. After arriving, Lee Ji-eun politely knocked on the door and greeted the seniors and juniors who were participating in the recording of today's program.

Some seniors seemed to have heard the news and talked about the upcoming replacement of the new MC during a simple greeting. They all guessed that Lee Ji-eun would be the new MC.

The juniors were not only surprised by IU's arrival, but also by her grandeur. Under the senior-senior system, it is rare for seniors to take the initiative to greet juniors. The juniors were so scared that they didn't know what to do. Fortunately, IU took the initiative to resolve the embarrassment.

After walking around, Lee Ji-eun finally went to the third floor.

In the stairwell, Li Zhien couldn't help but ask Bae Zhonghan: "Oppa, actually you didn't have to go around just now."

"Yes"

"But the original MC is here today too."

"Yeah, I should have said hello, but unfortunately I didn't see anyone."

"So, why?"

"Jie Eun, the MC also needs to build good relationships with all the performers. Once they get to know each other, they will work together better. The show is not just about the rapport and interaction between the MCs. Anyway, it's right to listen to me."

Li Zhien nodded silently.

There is still a difference between brokers and agents.

A good agent can really bring many opportunities and unexpected benefits to artists.

On the 3rd floor, there is the large office of the Arts Center.

Although she is not like when she first debuted and would give nutrient solution to everyone at the broadcasting station to ask for favors, IU still maintains a humble heart and will politely greet the staff when she sees them.

The staff were not at all surprised by IU's arrival. Everyone at K Broadcasting Station knew that there was a Ki Yo-gu behind IU.

Qi Yaojiu will bring the unknown Lee Ji-eun to appear in a variety show, let Lee Ji-eun become a guest performer at the year-end acting awards, and let a newcomer with no acting experience star in the opening of the year's self-made program. It is not surprising that he is arranged to do any other work.

"Music Bank" production conference room.

Dong dong dong

IU knocked on the door three times and then gently opened it.

There are people inside.

Looking closely, it was Park Ji-yeon and her agent who had arrived earlier than her.

Entering the conference room, Li Zhien took the initiative to greet her: "You came so early?"

Park Ji-yeon pulled out an empty chair next to her and responded, "I just got here a few minutes ago too."

Lee Ji-eun sat next to Park Ji-yeon, and the two agents nodded and greeted each other.

After a brief silence, Li Zhien took the lead in breaking the awkwardness: "Have you had breakfast?"

Park Ji-yeon shook her head.

Li Zhien asked again: "Would you like some coffee?"

"Do I look tired?"

"A little bit, your eyes are a little swollen, it feels..."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not crying."

"I didn't say you were crying, I just wanted to say you stayed up late?"

"I didn't sleep well last night. Maybe I was nervous."

"Are you nervous?"

"Aren't you nervous too?"

"So what do you usually do to relieve tension?"

"Eat, eat like crazy, what about you?"

"Me too, eating like crazy."

After the words fell, Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon turned around and looked at the agent behind them.

Then, the two of them said in unison, "I'm not usually nervous." Neither of the two agents heard their conversation. Seeing their surprisingly consistent reactions, they were a little confused and replied perfunctorily, "Yes, I know."

Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon looked at each other and both smiled.

In fact, if Ki Yo-gu is not involved, Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon really understand each other. They are friends of the same age, have a tacit understanding, and have a close relationship.

Behind.

The two managers were still discussing the new S Broadcasting Station program. Pei Zhonghan felt something was wrong and said, "We shouldn't be talking about this here."

Park Ji-yeon's manager smiled and waved his hands, saying, "Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's just that I haven't been out working with the Ki PDnim team, eating and partying together for a while. I miss it."

Pei Zhonghan sighed softly.

Speaking of nostalgia, he is the same.

There is no news about the production of the second season of "Bounce Earth Arcade", but Pei Zhonghan has been looking forward to an opportunity to go on vacation at public expense.

"crunch"

The door of the conference room was pushed open again.

PD Choi entered the meeting room first.

Without the need for the agent to remind them, Li Zhien and Park Ji-yeon stood up from their chairs and greeted them: "Hello"

PD Choi looked at the two of them with a smile, but what he said was: "IUxi is getting more and more beautiful."

Only IU was mentioned, not Park Ji-yeon.

Then, another voice sounded at the door: "Didn't brother say Jiyeon was the most beautiful, and also said she was a stunning beauty."

The voice arrived first, and Qi Yaojiu followed in.

PD Choi glanced at Park Ji-yeon without saying anything.

Originally, he wanted to say that his ideal type has always been someone like Kim Tae-hee. The reason why T-ara paid attention to Park Ji-yeon when they debuted was because Park Ji-yeon and Kim Tae-hee had the same appearance.

Later, Qi Yaojiu reminded PD Choi that what Park Ji-yeon hated to hear most was the nickname "Little Kim Taeyeon".

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and didn't say this. It seems that PD Choi has joined the T-ara fan camp.

Behind Ki Yo-gu, PD Kim Sang-mi also arrived.

It's still the terrifying existence that idol singers talk about. The atmosphere became much heavier after PD Kim Sang-mi came in.

Even though PD Kim Sang-mi gestured for everyone to sit down with a smile.

Face to face.

Ki Yo-gu and PD Choi sat on either side of PD Kim Sang-mi.

PD Kim Sang-mi placed the script in front of Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon and said, "You are all familiar with the program flow, but the MC's job is a little different, and it involves performance. Please read the script first, and then perform the introduction of 2pm's comeback stage."

IU and Park Ji-yeon were both dumbfounded.

Isn't this a meeting? How did it suddenly become an audition?

Neither of them was mentally prepared at all.

At the same time, he looked at Qi Yaojiu who was sitting opposite him. Qi Yaojiu must have known the content of today's meeting. He didn't remind him...

Li Zhien quickly calmed down, holding the script and whispering to Park Ji-yeon: "We can do this."

Park Ji-yeon nodded heavily.

Although they were not reminded to prepare for today's audition, Ki Yoo-gu had already told them two months ago that they would be the new MC of "Music Bank".

This is a test. Although Qi Yaojiu recommended two people, if both of them do not take the MC job seriously, then they will not pass today's audition and will have to be replaced.

"Excuse me, can we go out for ten minutes? Here..."

PD Kim Sang-mi nodded generously and said, "Okay, go to the lounge next door and get ready."

"Thank you PDnim"

As Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon hurried out of the conference room, PD Choi spoke up the moment the door closed, "Didn't PD Ki tell them about today's audition?"

Qi Yaojiu shrugged and said, "No, but I believe they will do a good job. If they can't do well, it only means that they are not suitable for MC work, right?"

PD Kim Sang-mi also shrugged and said, "PD Ki is trying to avoid suspicion. If you force this job on someone without being prepared, you'll be criticized, right, PD Ki?"

Qi Yaojiu did not deny it, but just glanced at the closed door.

Next door, the lounge.

After locking the door, Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon said to their manager in unison, "Oppa, search online for the title song for 2PM's comeback." (End of this chapter)
