Korean Entertainment's Unlucky God System

Chapter 10 Host Selection

There are countless artists on such a TV station, and it is also a place that Lin Cuo yearns for the most. It is good to come here and get to know him well. His fate is already doomed to be an outsider, and it is impossible to participate in it.

"Excuse me, are you Lin Cuoxi?"

The visitor was a middle-aged man in his 30s.

"Nai, I am Lin Cuo, and I bowed deeply."

"Hello, Director Park asked me to pick you up, please follow me."

"Inside."

When I came to the director's office, besides Liu Zaishi and Pu Xiongzai, there were several people inside.

After entering the door, Lin Cuo saluted several people again. If you want to ask others, you can't neglect understanding.

Lin Cuo, come and sit here. Liu Zaishi patted the sofa beside him and greeted him warmly.

Seeing that Pu Xiongzai and Liu Zaishi didn't intend to introduce these people, he was sensible and didn't ask any more questions.

"Lin Cuoxi, this is your copyright contract, please see what problems we are discussing. In fact, how could these tasks need a director to carry out, if it is not because of his current situation and the importance he attaches to "Running Man" , There are a lot of people from the TV station who can come and sign this contract with him."

Lin Cuo glanced at it roughly, but he didn't see it very clearly, it was very casual, he didn't care what losses this contract would cause him, at most there would be some disputes over copyright fees, but that was someone else, he Lin Cuo was Even if you give him [-] million, he won't dare to ask for it.

"I don't have any opinions, as long as I can be added as an MC, I don't have any other ideas."

Pu Xiongzai frowned. From the beginning of the discussion until now, Lin Cuoduo has not mentioned the issue of copyright fees. He felt very passive. It would be unrealistic not to discuss this aspect.

I don't know Lin Cuo's price for the copyright fee. The point is over, and he believes that Lin Cuo understands what he means.

Liu Zaishi couldn't say much at this time. After all, he still had to rely on the TV station.

"I don't know how much these copyright fees usually cost for a newcomer like me?"

Pu Xiongzai didn't speak, but a person opposite Liu Zaishi took up the topic: "Generally, there are two aspects to the income of newcomers. First, because they are newcomers, the copyright fee is relatively lower. After all, no one knows how the show will be. .Secondly, the fee is charged according to the production of each episode, and the income of a newcomer producing a episode is not very high. If Lin Cuoxi participates in the host of the show, the income is still good."

Lin Cuo rolled his eyes in his heart, these people are really like this. He never asked for these fees from the beginning to the end, and now they are talking to him in an official tone, without any restraint.

Im wrong to hate this.

"I will not always produce programs for you. In return for my participation in hosting the program, I will participate in the pre-production. Of course, this requires the consent of the TV station. I will not charge any fees for this. As for the appearance fee for my participation in hosting the program, As long as the TV station gives me enough money to support me, I'll be fine. As for the copyright, it's up to you. Just give it to a newbie like a normal person." Lin Cuo said in a crackling voice, without any sign of negotiation. The bottom line is that there is no bottom line.

Lin Cuo's words made everyone present feel ashamed. They have no intention of arguing with you about money. However, SBS, one of their three major TV stations, actually did this, which is indeed a bit embarrassing.

Pu Xiongzai was originally afraid that Lin Cuo would open his mouth like a lion. Now that the plan is under review, it will be approved soon. Easy to explain.

"Haha, okay, since Lin Cuoxi is so bold, then I can't be weak, how about this, Lin Cuoxi will help you follow up the pre-production, the TV station will not give you a production fee, the price of the copyright will be calculated as 1000 million won, If you participate in the host program, you will be paid the appearance fee as a normal new artist, how about that?"

"Okay," Lin Cuo replied readily.

"Pay the copyright fee to Brother Zai's VJ Quan Lie for me, I don't want it."

Lin Cuo was very generous and regarded this as a favor in exchange for Quan Lie.With so much money, nearly 6 yuan, I wouldn't even dare to ask for it even if I beat him to death!

"Lin Cuoxi, please take a look at this list of MC candidates, which were selected in the morning."

Lin Cuo looked at it, the host lineup is very luxurious, Liu Jae Suk, Lee Kyung Kyu, Kim Byung Man, Lee Seung Gi, Song Ji Hyo, Lin Cuo, Ji Suk Jin, haha, Song Joong Ki.

Liu Jae-seok, Lee Kyung-kui, Kim Byung-man, and Lee Seung-ki, these four are absolute heavyweights. Needless to say, Liu Jae-seok, the country’s MC, is top-notch in terms of popularity and program hosting. Lee Kyung-kui, a senior in the entertainment industry, is also well-known The presence,.Kim Byung-man, talented and powerful.Lee Seung Gi, known as the Emperor of Variety Shows, the mother of the people, the crown prince of love songs, is also a top figure in the hosting industry.

Even haha ​​and Ji Shizhen should not be underestimated. With this lineup, Lin Cuo just wanted to say, is Park Xiong going crazy?

"Director Park, I would like to ask, who among this list do you want to be the MC?"

In fact, Pu Xiongzai didn't pay too much attention to this list. With his status, he didn't need to ask about these at all.

After Lin Cuo asked, I found that there are indeed some problems with this list. No matter Liu Jae-seok, Lee Kyung-kui, Kim Byung-man, or Lee Seung-ki, it is impossible for any of them to be the auxiliary MC, let alone four?
It's okay to say that Ji Seokjin debuted early and is relatively old, but after all, he still can't compare with these four people in terms of popularity. Haha, not to mention, he debuted relatively late and his popularity is not top-notch.The best person to talk about is Song Ji Hyo. She is indeed very beautiful, but she is still a newcomer in the variety show industry. She doesn’t have much choice. She just relies on variety shows to maintain a certain degree of exposure.

Lin Cuo's question is right at the heart of the matter. If these people get together, they should not worry about the results of the show, but about the MC's game. In this way, "Running Man" doesn't need to spend much effort to produce it.

Lin Cuo also knew that Pu Xiongzai definitely didn't care too much about this aspect. After all, he was also a big leader, and he was required to do everything, so why did he need soldiers.

"Let me talk about the selection of MC candidates. Brother Shi must be the main MC. Then, the other members must be determined around Brother Shi. The main thing is to control. It doesn't matter even if a newcomer is completely adopted. The MC must be maintained. The success." Lin Cuo said;

Liu Zaishi has actually seen this list. From his point of view, he can’t say much, not to mention offending other MCs, but also offending the TV station. No match, those are questions, he just hasn't had time to ask them yet.Now that Lin Cuo proposed, it must be more convincing than what he said. After all, Lin Cuo is also the writer of "Running Man", and the characters in it were set by him himself.

Lin Cuo felt that it was necessary to wake up Park Xiongzai. The importance of MC is self-evident, but seeing this list, Lin Cuo felt a little disappointed. In the plan, he gave a detailed explanation of everyone's position. But at least half of this list did not meet the requirements, which made him very entangled.He doesn't want to point fingers at the work of the TV station, he is not from the TV station, this may make the TV station feel disgusted with him, so he just explained in detail about the body shape, appearance, and the positioning of the personnel in the program, and did not mention the MC candidate The problem, now he feels that if he doesn't intervene with the host team, the show is likely to be yellow.

He didn't designate an MC candidate because of his subconscious cognition. He felt that even if he didn't say anything, the historical process would continue. He didn't worry too much about the personnel, but now, the least worried thing has become the most worried thing. There is always some annoyance.

Park Xiong-jae is also a little short of words. He really doesn't care much about this aspect. It's also a matter of time. Now it has been decided that the prime-time program currently hosted by Yoo Jae-seok will be suspended in a month and replaced with the current one. The show is very tight in terms of time. Excluding some preparation time, the shooting of "Running Man" only lasts a few days. For a new show, the shooting time of a few days is really tight.

"Which people Lin Cuoxi thinks are more suitable MCs for this show?" Pu Xiong wanted to hear Lin Cuo's opinion, but he did ignore Lin Cuo's opinion in this regard.

"If SBS has carefully studied the role positioning in my plan, you can find that the prototype of the MC candidate in my plan is completely based on real people. Although each role is not unique, it is the most suitable to host the show. Candidates for the show."

"Oh~~~ I don't know if Lin Cuo's xi is set according to those people?" The person who asked the question was another one. Lin Cuo knew him. He was the original "Running Man" chief PD, Zhao Xiaozhen. It can be said that, The success of "Running Man" in the previous life is inseparable from this one.

Zhao Xiaozhen is an absolute hero. He, Kim Junhyung and Lim Xingze are the three major PDs of "Running Man". outdoor reality show.

Lin Cuo saluted and said, "Hello PD Zhao Xiaozhen, nice to meet you."

Everyone here should have read the plan. The prototypes I designed are: "Yoo Jae Suk, Kim Jong Kook, Ji Suk Jin, Song Ji Hyo, haha, Kang Hee Gun, Lee Kwang Joo and myself, and the number of people is also set at 7-9 people."

After thinking about it, it seems that this is really the case.

At this time, Liu Zaishi was in the dark circle, and he didn't understand why he chose these people to do this show, so he asked: "Lin Cuo, I know all of these people, why did you choose them to do this show? Haha and Chi Shizhen It’s okay, but the others don’t seem to be suitable for this show, right?”

Lin Cuo understood his worries.
