Peninsula: The Great Producer

Chapter 99: Not Arguing

In a lucky life, there will always be someone who is both a teacher and a friend around you.

It cannot be said that Song Xihai completely awakened Qi Yaojiu, but Song Xihai's sarcastic words remained in Qi Yaojiu's mind for a long time.

Both Kang Min Kyung and Lee Ji Eun asked Ki Yo Gu why the brother they were supposed to introduce to each other went back to Manjae Island without meeting him.

Even Park Ji-yeon asked Ki Yo-gu when she ran into him in the apartment building.

Qi Yaojiu did not say that he was drunk when he made the call that night, and he did not remember what was said on the phone at all. He just said that if there was a chance next time, they would have dinner together and get to know each other.

But when facing Kang Min Kyung, Lee Ji Eun and Park Ji Yeon, Ji Yoo Gu really couldn't bring himself to seduce them.

Especially Lee Ji-eun and Park Ji-yeon, maybe things will be different when they grow up a little.

Winter passes and spring comes.

March, the spring month.

The popularity of K Broadcasting Station's opening drama of the new year "Boys Over Flowers" and Girls' Generation's latest comeback theme song "Gee" continues to increase.

Yeouido, K Broadcasting Station Headquarters.

3rd floor, Arts Center, "Three Meals a Day" conference room.

Li Enying and Jin Zhihuan entered the meeting room one after another.

One was distributing coffee to everyone, while another said, "They agreed to bet on Korean beef."

Choi Jinna took the coffee and took a sip. She looked at the calm Qi Yaojiu and said, "I understand you don't want to lose, but I don't think betting is necessary. There are all kinds of people in society these days. Do you have to bet with the other party every time you encounter a situation like this?"

Qi Yaojiu also took a sip of coffee and said slowly: "The best way to make those people shut up is to hit them in the face with the results again and again."

"The mouth belongs to others. Even if you win, those people will still taunt you behind your back."

"Then win every time until those people are convinced."

Choi Jinna said: "You are not that kind of person."

Qi Yaojiu wanted to say, "You don't understand me," but the words on his lips changed to, "If you don't do something, people will just think you're easy to bully."

Li Enying, Jin Zhihuan and others didn't dare to breathe.

It was unclear whether Ki Yo-gu and Choi Jin-na were discussing or arguing.

Moreover, the atmosphere is weird.

It's like a wife blaming her husband for not acting maturely or prudently.

Qi Yaojiu gestured for everyone to take a seat.

There are two things to discuss in today's meeting.

The filming of the second season of "Three Meals a Day" and the preparation for the production of the TV series "Brilliant Legacy".

March is the most beautiful season in Wancai Island. Normally, you may not think it is beautiful, but with the help of filters, the sunrise and sunset, the clear sea water, the scattered reefs, the gravel beach, the lush mountain stream, the spring flowers blooming, the freedom and comfort, everything is so beautiful.

The second season of "Three Meals a Day", which has a healing theme, will definitely be more topical and attract more attention than the first season, but we need to pay attention to the choice of guests.

After the filming of the first season was completed, Qi Yaojiu discussed with the team that in the second season, different guests would be invited to visit the "home" of "Three Meals a Day" Wan Caidao as guests.

Before the official shooting, the list of guest performers and their schedule must be confirmed clearly.

Male guest, female guest.

Actor, idol, comedian.

Qi Yaojiu wanted to hear everyone's opinions, but everyone had different ideas.

Choi Jinna was the first to express her opinion. Her meaning was very simple: to invite top-level guests.

The reason is the copyright of "Three Meals a Day".

Although the first season of "Three Meals a Day" planned and produced last year achieved good results in ratings, no one was interested in other aspects, especially the sale of copyrights.

Choi Jinna remembered very clearly what Ki Yo-gu had said: the criterion for judging whether a variety show or a TV series is popular among the public is how wide its audience reach is.

Many people have never been to China's port city, but many have watched its TV dramas and movies, listened to its songs, and even gotten to know its celebrities through television. "Three Meals a Day" aims to be a household name not only in China, but also in Asia, Europe, America, and around the world.

To achieve this goal, we must at least invite top-level celebrity guests who are well-known globally.

Choi Jina wrote her ideal guest list on a whiteboard with a marker.

Rain, Kim Hee Sun, Lee Young Ae, Lee Byung Hun, Jang Dong Gun, Jun Ji Hyun, Jang Nara.

There are seven episodes in one season, with one guest in each episode.

Just looking at this list, although they are not entirely the top-level stars with the most international recognition in the minds of H people, Choi Jina's explanation of why these guests were invited is very convincing.

For example, Rain is a top-tier star who has developed very well as a singer and actor. He has won numerous awards as a singer and has held world tours.

As an actor, he not only starred in "Full House", but also entered Hollywood last year and starred in the movie "Speed Racer". His stage name Rain was written into the Encyclopedia Britannica.

The situations of other guests were not much different. There was Kim Hee Sun, who had worked with Chinese international superstar Uncle Long in a movie, Jun Ji Hyun, who became famous with "My Sassy Girl", and Jang Nara, who participated in last year's world-renowned Chinese Capital Olympics like Rain.

Choi Jinna did not forget to emphasize that the purpose of inviting these guests was not to win awards at the year-end entertainment awards, but to expand the influence of the program and successfully sell the copyright.

Qi Yaojiu is not sure whether the copyright can be sold.

As far as I can remember, China also had a variety show with a similar healing theme, but it seems that it did not purchase the production rights of "Three Meals a Day".

However, what is certain is that Choi Jinna can only invite 1 or 2 of the artist production teams she plans to invite, or maybe not even one at all.

It’s not entirely true that these top-tier artists don’t need to endure this hardship; production funding is the biggest problem.

It felt like Choi Jinna was going to say in the next second that she could handle the production funds and guest invitations.

It's not that we don't believe Choi Jinna doesn't have the ability, it's that everyone including Lee Eun-young thinks it's unnecessary. Now that it's being filmed like this, how are the third, fourth and subsequent seasons going to be filmed?

Without even Ki Yo-gu saying anything, writer Lee Eun-young boldly expressed her thoughts for the first time.

Big office.

Many people's eyes are on the "Three Meals a Day" conference room.

These people were very united and worked together to make a bet with Ki Yo-gu's team, betting that the successor to "Boys Over Flowers", "Shining Legacy", would not be able to surpass "Boys Over Flowers".

These people thought that everyone in the "Three Meals a Day" conference room was discussing the TV series at that time. Until Director Park Jong-min suddenly appeared and opened the door of the "Three Meals a Day" conference room, they heard someone inside saying, "Since Kim Hee-sun has been invited, why not invite Uncle Long to appear on the show as well?"

Someone else said: "Since Uncle Long has invited Leonardo DiCaprio, he can also come to record an episode."

Before the door closed, I heard someone say, "Leonardo DiCaprio? Park Jin-young?"

Finally, it was confirmed that it was Qi Yaojiu's voice, saying, "Who invited Director-nim here? Director-nim, we are not arguing, we are discussing."

Big office.

Several people gathered around Yoon Ji-hye.

You and Yoon Ji Hye were talking back and forth, "Writer-nim, they had a fight, and I said we would definitely win."

"Since we won this time, I think Writer-nim can also go to Director-nim and ask for support. Writer-nim is fully capable of planning and producing a TV series."

"Writer nim, at the end of the year..."

Yoon Ji-hye didn't respond. She felt a little uneasy at this moment.

Everyone else is just joining in the fun.

She had just heard the conversation in the conference room. They were not discussing TV dramas at all. Qi Yaojiu and his team were discussing variety shows.

This means that Ki Yo-gu and his team were not worried about the bet at all, and were so confident that everyone believed that the TV series would achieve more than "Boys Over Flowers".

"crunch"

The door to the conference room opened again.

Yoon Ji-hye looked over immediately and listened hard with her ears pricked up.

Director Park Jong-min's voice reached her ears clearly: "What? You guys made a bet? Why didn't you tell me? Count me in, and Director Kim Hye-joo in, too."
