Peninsula: The Great Producer

Chapter 93: Never thought of playing the pig to eat the tiger
(ask for monthly tickets, various requests)

"Marry me, live with me for the rest of your life, and let us live happily and lovingly with each other."

K Broadcasting Station, 3rd floor, large office of the entertainment center.

The music came from Qi Yaojiu's desk.

Other colleagues looked at him with attention.

People who like music can recognize that it is sung by Lee Seung Gi just by looking at the lyrics, but they have never heard this song before.

"Giving birth to two children, one like you and one like me, healthy and fit for generations to come, this is the life I want."

The lyrics are sweet, the rhythm is brisk, and the lyrical style can really make people who hear the song feel better.

The female employees immediately put themselves into the scenes they had once fantasized about.

Writer Li Enying, who was sitting opposite, commented on the lyrics in a slightly exaggerated way, "Giving birth to two children, one like you and one like me, how romantic! Isn't this the promise of love and the best ending?"

Married employees have a different feeling. This song is very suitable as a blessing song for wedding ceremonies.

"PDnim"

Team FD Kim Ji-hwan couldn't help but ask Ki Yo-gu, "Is this song Lee Seung-gi's new song?"

Qi Yaojiu originally couldn't remember what songs were in the OST of "Shining Legacy" or what they were specifically.

However, after hearing Lee Seung Gi singing this song, he confirmed that "Marry Me" is the theme song OST of the TV series.

Turning to look at Kim Ji-hwan who was preparing for his wedding, Ki Yo-gu said, "Yes, it's also the OST for 'Brilliant Legacy'."

"So it's the OST. I felt like I'd never heard this song before."

Qi Yaojiu said, "It would be a good song to use as a congratulatory song at your wedding."

Jin Zhihuan excitedly agreed: "I think so too, but..."

Qi Yaojiu knew what Jin Zhihuan was worried about and said, "Since we are working together on a TV series, it is normal to invite the crew to attend your wedding ceremony. Then, let Lee Seung-gi be responsible for the congratulatory song."

Jin Zhihuan moved his chair closer to Qi Yaojiu, and held Qi Yaojiu's hand. He said with an expression that he was afraid that Qi Yaojiu would regret it: "PDnim must do this, must."

Although Ki Yo-gu and Lee Seung-gi don't have much contact, there is really no need to worry about this matter. If Lee Seung-gi is invited to the wedding, he will definitely go, and singing the congratulatory song is not a big deal.

"When I miss you like crazy, when I am struggling to hold on, the words "I love you" are on the tip of my tongue, but I am still crying for you alone."

Before Qi Yaojiu could say anything, music started playing again in the big office.

The music played the chorus part, and some female staff members who were fans couldn't help but exclaim after hearing the song: "Is this a new song from SS501?"

There is an office area next to it.

In the work area where the production team of "Planning Group 2" was working, a lot of people immediately gathered around Yoon Ji-hye, the 32nd K Broadcasting Station's open recruitment of variety writers.

Yoon Ji-hye answered other questions that were also of curiosity, such as the song's title being "Because I'm So Stupid."

Soon, the song changed.

This time, even Qi Yaojiu immediately recognized that it was a song by SM's new male idol group SHinee, which was launched last year.

The first two lines of the lyrics, "Stand by me, please look at me, although I don't understand love yet. Stand by me, please look at me, although I'm still new to love." are the voices of SHinee's captain Onew and lead singer Jonghyun, respectively, and are very recognizable.

This song and the SS501 song just now were the first time for other staff members to hear it.

But Ki Yo-gu sounds familiar with these two songs, as they are both OSTs from the TV series "Boys Over Flowers".

What does this name Yoon Ji-hye mean?
This is the entertainment center on the 3rd floor, not the TV drama production center on the 5th floor.

Are you jealous because Ki Yoo-gu released Lee Seung-gi's unreleased new song to be used as the OST for the TV series "Shining Legacy"?
The staff gathered around her asked when the new songs would be released. Yoon Ji-hye smiled and said that the two songs have not been officially released yet, but will first be used as the OST of "Boys Over Flowers".

Ki Yoo-gu and Yoon Ji-hye are not familiar with each other.

I know that she is a senior from the 32nd term, and when we meet normally, we are just ordinary colleagues in the workplace with just nodding and greeting each other.

Writer Lee Eun-young seemed to know more. Standing up, she crouched over Ki Yo-gu's desk and whispered, "PD-nim, that writer Yoon Ji-hye is the younger sister of writer Yoon Ji-ryeon from the TV Drama Production Center."

Qi Yaojiu also doesn't know Yin Zhilian.

Lee Eun-young explained, "Writer Yoon Ji-ryeon-nim is the lead screenwriter for this adaptation of 'Boys Over Flowers'."

Qi Yaojiu understood what he said.

A company is a complex small society with many groups. It may appear harmonious at ordinary times, but it is actually turbulent under the surface.

Qi Yaojiu was noticed by the director of the entertainment department, the director of the TV drama production center and the vice president at the same time. It was impossible for no one not to be jealous of him.

It’s just that due to the success of the two variety shows planned by Qi Yaojiu last year, there is nothing to slander or attack, and everyone seems to be waiting for the TV series planned by Qi Yaojiu to be produced and broadcast.

Is it possible for an entertainment PD to plan and produce a TV series?

Qi Yaojiu, who is being favored, is likely to fail this time.

Coupled with the explosive popularity of "Boys Over Flowers", taking over "Boys Over Flowers" would be tantamount to seeking death.

It is no exaggeration to say that writer Yoon Ji-hye deliberately played the OST of "Boys Over Flowers" as a provocation.

Is she planning to take over Ki Yo-gu's production team? She wants to be promoted from variety writer to lead PD, establishing herself alongside her older sister at K Broadcasting Station and becoming the "Yoon Sisters" of the broadcasting world, dominating both TV dramas and variety shows?
He is only two years older than Qi Yaojiu, and he is really childish.

Writer Lee Eun-young glanced back at the Planning Team 2 office, expressing her dissatisfaction, muttering, "PDnim, many people are waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves."

Qi Yaojiu was very calm, which was the confidence that came from knowing the outcome.

He never thought of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, or slapping someone in the face.

But in the workplace, some people just like to put their faces close to others and be beaten, and Qi Yaojiu can't stop them.

FD Kim Ji-hwan clenched his fists and looked ready for battle: "We must make sure those who are laughing at us become the laughingstock."

Qi Yaojiu was rarely in a good mood and jokingly said, "Did they make a bet?"

"what?"

Qi Yaojiu spread his hands and said, "I think you can make a bet. For example, this year's ratings champion will be "Brilliant Legacy", and the independent copyright will be sold to many countries and regions."

Writer Lee Eun-young's voice trembled a little: "PDnim"

Qi Yaojiu continued, "If you want to make a bet, count me in. I'll bet those people a meal. Korean beef is suitable."

Jin Zhihuan stood up and walked out.

Lee Eun-young called out to him, "Ji-hwan Oppa, where are you going?"

Jin Zhihuan looked at the "Planning Team 2" and said, "Go ask them if they dare to bet."

Frightened, Li Enying hurriedly waved and shouted, "Come back," and looked at Qi Yaojiu, as if asking Qi Yaojiu to stop the impulsive Jin Zhihuan.

Qi Yaojiu stopped him and said lightly, "Even if you want to make a bet, the best time to do so is when the other party feels they have a sure win."

Li Enying and Jin Zhihuan were confused.

Qi Yaojiu added, "When 'Boys Over Flowers' becomes the national ratings champion, or when its ratings exceed 30%."

Li Enying wanted to say something.

Qi Yaojiu waved his hand with his coat in hand: "As for now, do what we should do. I have other things to do, so I'll leave work first."

Passing by the office area of ​​"Planning Group 2", Qi Yaojiu smiled and nodded, and the others also nodded.

Until Qi Yaojiu left the office, the whispers of discussion continued to be heard.

Li Enying and Jin Zhihuan looked at each other.

After a while, Jin Zhihuan said, "Speaking of which, where does PDnim get his confidence from, Writer Li nim?"
