Chapter 207 TV series, understand?(1/2)

Speaking of that night, there was something that Kim Jong-ming actually obviously fooled Aunt Park, that is... No matter how mb is stopped, the things he invested in and produced by Kim Jong-ming himself would not lose any losses.

Why, the reason is very simple. When everyone slapped each other on the table and threatened the shutdown, it was of course no big problem to scare the other party with foreign investment for two days...

"Stop making trouble. This TV series has been invested by seven or eight companies. If I make trouble, I will stop it. When I see it, who can those bosses let go?" This is the method of Kim Caizhe, the president of MBC who mastered the screening port.

"Well, who have you seen those people play it? You made this TV series not release normally, right? I made it impossible for the TV series to be released this month to be released even!" This is the counterattack of Lee Minhao, the director of the MBC who controls the production power.

In this situation, when you go back and forth, it seems lively, but in fact it is like a couple fighting and threatening each other to throw things. If you throw a teacup and teapot, you will hear it. But in fact, you will really have to wait for a divorce lawsuit, unless it is someone who is deeply harsh in love and blames him. Who would be willing to smash a car or a TV again? Then may it be possible to share it with yourself in the future?

By the same token, strikes and shutdowns are just means. The ultimate goal of this group of middle-level people and the top-level people is to fight for personnel, not to destroy mbc. In this regard, the elites of mbc actually have clear minds.

However, as the matter developed, the sober minds who led the movement immediately realized that this divorce might not be easy to deal with, and it would be said that it was a difficult situation!

By the way, in mid-January, Kim Cho-chul was suddenly exposed by the media for evil deeds such as keeping mistresses, embezzling wages, accepting bribes, etc.... Many things are conclusive. So, almost in an instant, the president made mbc a laughing stock of the Korean media, and correspondingly, he also aroused collective anger from all over mbcs.

In addition, the president who was airborne by the ruling party did all offensive things when Park secretly suppressed the mbc news force. What allowed the police station to rush into the TV station to grab articles; What forced Sun Seo-hee to leave with tears; What deleted some news reports with obvious tendencies, and some variety shows that satirize current affairs... For example, Kim Tae-ho and the group of mbc angry young pds have long been unable to bear him.

And at the same time, since the matter was rolled up from places with bad nature such as wage arrears, the MBC internal trade unions, the Korean Performing Arts Association, the Korean Artists Rights Mutual Aid Committee, and other influential NGO organizations have all stood firm and clearly expressed their dissatisfaction and even hostile attitude towards Kim Caizhe.

So, when the mbc union and middle-level elites decided to pass the strike...well, this extremely common movement in South Korea was to drive Kim Chow Cheol away, in fact, people were full of confidence. After all, the ending could almost be said to be inevitable... A scum like Kim Chow Cheol will inevitably fail, and no one objected to this, and Kim Jong-ming stood by.

Even gold programs such as "Infinite Challenge" and "Golden Fisheries" specially recorded one or two installments in advance, hoping to pass this strike period seamlessly... At this time, they thought that this strike would probably have a satisfactory result in just one or two weeks!

However, the mbc core elites who led the strike with Li Minhao were immediately stunned. Because, these people quickly discovered that this strike seemed to have encountered a dead knot:

On the one hand, Kim Caizhe did all his bad things and had a bad reputation. Under the instigation of their elites, almost all the middle and lower MBCs, various related NGO organizations with huge power, and even the relevant investors who paid them, advertisers recognized the strike.

It can be said that if Kim Caizhe was not driven away, Li Minhao and his group would not be able to give everyone an explanation. Otherwise, the anger from all sides would definitely teach them to be human beings first, although this anger was actually incited by them themselves, but they didn't expect it to be so high and fierce at once.

But on the other hand, in the most direct legal appointment and removal process, mbc is ultimately at a height that these middle-level people cannot reach. Speaking of which, the mbc 9-member committee that controls the appointment and removal of senior leaders has been mentioned more than once. Among the 9 people, 3 are nominated by opposition parties, 3 are appointed by the president, and 3 are assigned by the ruling party... This is a long-standing stable system and the rules of the game lies.

It seems very simple to get Kim Caizhe out, and it’s enough for five people to agree, but in fact, these elites quickly discovered in panic that the ruling party, which holds the majority of seats in the committee, has an incredible position! Some kind of upper-level pressure forced 6 of these 9 politicians to remain silent, and the support of the 6 people also made Kim Caizhe’s position as stable as Mount Tai!

What's going on?!

The answer is to do something nonsense! Otherwise? Even if the nine-member committee is working together? Believe it or not, this question can be involved in Congress for two years!

In fact, the strike finally lasted for more than half a year in this unsolvable state. It was not until the South Korean election was in full swing that it entered the recovery process through the strong interference of some people and the sudden realization of some people. When they let mbc restore its vitality and combat effectiveness, the election was settled.

As for Kim Cho-chul's resignation... Haha, that's already the matter of Aunt Park before she came to power.

Of course, at that time, the Korean pan-entertainment circle was already in turmoil. Things changed, and it was meaningless to shoot any hindsight.

Let’s go back to the present and back to January 2011. When the strike just started, as the evil manipulator and one of the biggest beneficiaries of the strike, South Korea’s youngest actor, Mr. Kim Jong-ming, expressed his extremely contradictory attitude in public in a very sincere and reasonable manner.

"First of all, from the perspective of investors, I am quite worried about the current situation." Kim Jong-ming looked sad first. "The Short-Legged Counterattack almost all comes from our UB investment. In this state, the previous good results may be greatly hit, and the brand image of the mbc golden Japanese drama "highkik" will definitely be impacted. In addition, in recent years, our company and mbc cooperated more and more deeply, and now the production of at least two TV series and two variety shows has been in an embarrassing situation. One of the TV series that should have been released has been adjusted to March... Although mbc has repeatedly guaranteed their release continuity, from the perspective of revenue and ratings, it will definitely be greatly reduced compared to previous estimates."

This is the truth, and many reporters nodded in recognition.

"But on the other hand, from a moral and long-term perspective, I support and understand all the colleagues who are mbc." As he said that, Kim Jong-ming raised his eyebrows and turned to the strike again. "It can be imagined that after removing the cancer in the industry, a good environment will make future investment and operation healthier... So, my mood is really contradictory now."

The attitude was sincere and sincere. Almost all the reporters who came to the strike explanation meeting nodded and recorded Kim Jong-ming's speech and attitude in detail, and prepared to go back and report truthfully, thus contributing to this big news topic.

However, these reports have attracted some unnecessary concerns after they are released.

Among them, the first one to call was Park Soo-yeon. She mentioned something carefully on the phone that night:

"Zhong Ming... There is actually no need to worry about me in the TV series. When encountering such a thing, no one can do anything about it."

To be honest, the other party's phone call came extremely abruptly. Kim Jong-ming, who was dealing with another thing at home, didn't react for a moment: "Sister Zhao Yan... are you worried that something will happen to the mbc TV series I arranged before?"

"I'm not worried about this." Park So-yeon, who was on the other end of the phone, replied softly. "That doesn't matter anymore. What I'm more worried about is that you always pretend to be this matter in your heart and arrange something else for me at that time. This... seems indifferent, and will it make it difficult for you to do?"

Jin Zhongming was slightly stunned, and then he realized: "Are you worried that I will be distracted, or are you willing but not able to do it?"

"I'm really afraid of causing trouble for you." Park So-yeon replied seriously. "But I'm really busy again, so it doesn't matter to TV series or something."

"It's not worth mentioning the trouble." Kim Jong-ming finally understood the other party's meaning, so he quickly comforted him. "The so-called strike will only affect the programs produced by MB itself. If the TV series is outsourced, it will not be affected too much. If you wait for a little while, you will probably send a new TV series invitation... As for the words in the interview, it is more about expressing your opinion for the sake of expressing your opinion. Sister Zhao Yan, you don't have to care at all."

Park Soo-yeon then woke up a little embarrassedly: "Is it because I lack vision? I really think you are worried about these things."

"Nothing." After comforting the other party, Kim Jong-ming suddenly thought of something and asked in a little puzzled manner. "But, aren't you in Japan? Why do you say you're going to be busy again?"

"Hey... it's really in Japan now, but there is a mini album that was recorded during Christmas before, so it will be released as soon as you go back to Korea on February 3rd."

"You president is really impatient." To be honest, although Kim Jong-ming no longer wants to say anything to Kim Kwang-soo's actions, this guy is still constantly "surprising" him.

By the way, I told Korean girl groups not to release albums in January, but this guy actually released a new album on February 3rd... Should I praise him for fighting every second, or should I praise him for keeping the appointment on time?

"And it seems that there is more than that." Speaking of this topic, Park So-yeon's voice became obviously a little tired and relaxed. "Our president has too many plans for the first half of this year, but I don't know what the specific situation is... In short, Zhong Ming is really grateful to you for preparing the TV series for me, but I don't have time here in the first half of this year."

"I'll help you pay attention." Kim Jong-ming had nothing to say. "Try to help you transfer the TV series to after this return...how?"

"That... it's good." After confirming that Kim Jong-ming was indeed confident, Park So-yeon was not very resistant. As for the busy work issue, to be honest, as a member of the so-called "model worker group", she has adapted for so long.

In this way, the two chatted casually for a few more words. Then Jin Zhongming hung up the phone and put away his cell phone, then got up from the sofa that he had never left and wiped his face.

When he walked around and returned to the living room, he found that it was around 9 o'clock in the evening. So, Kim Jong-ming finally couldn't help but speak to the two people who had been sitting in front of him in a daze:

"So... have you two thought about it? Who chooses which one?"

Yoona and Yuri lowered their heads together... To be honest, on the one hand, they still look very hesitant, but on the other hand, they are inevitably a little embarrassed.

That's right, before Park Soo-yeon called, the two were choosing two TV series that Kim Jong-ming helped them run, and they chose it very hard because neither of them wanted to make any mistakes in the face of decisive things.

However, when they heard Park Soyoon's conversation with their own ears, the two of them could not help but blush. The third female lead who was sent by Sister In-jing casually and delayed several times knew to consider Kim Jong-ming. Although it seemed a bit too much to worry, they were considering Kim Jong-ming without any objection.

What about these two of them? They are still picky in the face of such good conditions. Although they are just the two of them who are picking in the two TV series, no matter how they are so slow in front of Kim Jong-ming, they still feel a little rude.

"Oh, haven't you both finished picking yet?" Before the two of them could say something, Sika's voice sounded from behind.

Looking back, it turned out that Chulong, Krystal, and Xika, who had taken the initiative to avoid the two of them going out to shop in the supermarket to buy things, had returned together.

"Oppa, please help make the decision!" Yoona no longer hesitated, but simply gave up on the selection. "Sikaoni is annoyed..."

"That's right." Yuri nodded. "I can't stand Sikaoni's temper. Why don't you come and make a decision for us? We will definitely not be troublesome... Moreover, if you continue to pick this, you will feel more and more confused."

"Ha." Kim Jong-ming couldn't help but sneer. Of course, he understood what happened to these two people. After all, he was still unwilling to admit defeat. As for whether Xika was annoyed or not, to put it bluntly, both of them dared to fight openly in front of the entire Shaoshi team, and they still cared about Xika who could not be ripe anymore. What really made them worry about was Chu Long, who helped Krystal stuff mangos into the refrigerator... These two people really didn't want to be embarrassed in front of Chu Long.

As soon as he thought of this, Jin Zhongming decided to tease the two of them: "It's better to draw lots! Chu Long goes to the refrigerator to get two mangoes, you both choose the right and left. If you choose the big mango, go to KBS, and go to SBS... How about it?"

Yoona and Yuri couldn't help but look at each other, and then looked at Kim Jong-ming together.

"What, can't it work?" Jin Zhongming asked pretending to be puzzled.

"No, no," Yoona couldn't help but pursed her lips. "I just didn't expect Oppa to be so fair."

"Yes." Yuri nodded slightly panickedly.

"Then go and choose?" Jin Zhongming urged half a sentence. "Chulong, hide the mangoes and don't let them see the size!"

Chu Long looked back speechlessly at Jin Zhongming, but did not really bow his head to get the mango, but turned around and helped Krystal drag Baker into the bathroom. By the way, it was time to give Baker a bath today.

As for that, Yoona and Yuri were still motionless... To be honest, they were very embarrassed.

"Okay." Kim Jong-ming couldn't help but feel a little excited. "If you don't tell me, you will definitely feel that the other party is better than yours, and then you will feel uncomfortable when the result comes out. But in fact... I dare not say how luxurious the configuration of these two TV series is, but I really do my best to do the vocabulary of fairness."

Yuri blinked a little, while Yoona widened her eyes and didn't move.

"All female leads, and they are moon-fire dramas of the same period. No one takes advantage of time. Don't stare at the premiere time. A week's time will not have any decisive impact on the final result." Kim Jong-ming explained helplessly. "As for the gap, of course there is... Since you want to decide the outcome, the only hard condition is undoubtedly the ratings. In this regard, KBS naturally takes advantage of its state-owned TV station."

Yuri and Yoona immediately looked down at the script of the KBS Moonhuo Drama called "The King of Fashion". Yes, neither of them was convinced by each other. If they really wanted to prove something, the ratings were the only hard standard. From this point of view, KBS was the first to be the first. After all, in the state of not knowing what to watch, many people always choose KBS at will, which makes KBS's TV series naturally have a rating bonus... So, if you choose the evidence of KBS TV station, even if you lose, you will definitely not lose too much.

"However, in order to compensate for this, the TV series SBS is more topical. After all, this is the reunion of director Yoon Seok-ho and screenwriter Wu Soo-yan." Kim Jong-ming pointed to the TV series script of SBS called "Love Rain". "Who is Yoon Seok-ho? I don't think I need to give you popular science, right?"

Of course, there is no need for popular science. Yoon Seok-ho is the masterpiece of the Korean drama, "Blue Love of Life and Death", "Winter Love", "Summer Scent", "Spring Waltz"... Although his aesthetic style has no longer been likable over the years, the weight of this name is still unquestionable for idols like Yoona and Yoori.

"As for the two male actors who play with you," Kim Jong-ming couldn't help but sigh. "To be honest, I can't let you match it randomly, because Jang Geun-soo and Yoo A-in are not cats and dogs... And they both cannot do it randomly when choosing a TV series. They both have to consider their image and development. Among them, Jang Geun-soo is very popular... uh, very beautiful, so he chose to work with director Yoon Seok-ho and take the aesthetic route; Yoo A-in's acting skills are excellent and can endure loneliness. There is also the inspirational movie "Fighting Boy Yuan De" in the first half of last year as the foundation, so he chose the inspirational TV series "Fashion King". Both of them... have a clear understanding of their own development..."

"I chose "Love Rain"." I wonder if the sentence "Sobert" played a role, but Yoona suddenly interrupted Kim Jong-ming's introduction without hesitation.

"Then I'll choose "The King of Fashion"." Yuri couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's good!" Jin Zhongming was stunned for a moment, but then nodded.

He understood that the result was actually determined by the personalities of these two people. Yoona looked lively, but in fact she was bold and determined, so she chose the more likely "Love Rain"; Yuri seemed generous, but in fact she was a little indecisive in her heart, so she naturally preferred the "Fashion King" with conservative grades.

"Just choose." Xika, who had not left, sat on the sofa next to her, and stared at the two little girls she had known since childhood with bored. "Wood, hurry up, don't waste time... I'll say it earlier and let them get out early. To be honest, I'm upset when I see the two of them with deep grudges now."

When Yoona and Yuri were not angry when they heard Sika's harsh words, they were not angry. The two girls who had been trainees together since elementary school could not help but look at each other, but some complicated emotions rolled in their eyes, but immediately disappeared.

"Okay... we should talk about the rules of victory or defeat." Kim Jong-ming responded indifferently. "First of all, according to the agreement, I will send you two extremely fair dramas. During the filming of the TV series, you will do whatever you want, but you have to put this energy and awareness of confrontation on the TV series. You must not have the last time the incident of the dog-skinned slap that even the agent was involved in... The winner is of course based on the ratings, and the national average ratings of agb. Among them, since Yuri is a challenger, you must be 5 percentage points or more before you can win... There is no draw, because the numbers are there, and the difference is 0.1."

Neither Yoona nor Yuri spoke, and Sika next to her also began to chew mangoes seriously. As for Krystal and Chulong who ran to the bathroom to bathe Baker, they also did not make any noise.

"I didn't expect you to be calm in one duel." Kim Jong-ming continued to preach seriously. "How could the competition in the past ten years be settled like this? But I must make a statement that the winner and your teacher Li Xiuman will be held in the back! So no matter who wins, the other one, even if he is unwilling to do so, must give me a bet and accept the loss and stop making trouble. Do you understand?"

Yoona and Yuri nodded with their lips and then took their own scripts.

"If Yoona wins, it's very simple. Yuri, don't be dissatisfied. Everything depends on the company's arrangements." Kim Jong-ming stretched out his index finger and pointed at Yuri without hesitation.

"Okay!" Yuri, who was holding the script, agreed happily, but her chest couldn't help but fluctuate heavily with this brief pronunciation.

"If Yuri wins." Kim Jong-ming looked at Yoona with his head turned around again. "I will tell Lee Soo-man that from that moment on, you must give Yuri a copy according to your resources... No nonsense."

"I won't lose." Yoona replied unceremoniously with her chest raised.

"Whatever." Jin Zhongming responded indifferently. "The last one...that is, I, the banker, are qualified to take everything..."

Maybe because they knew each other for too long, with Kim Jong-ming's understatement, Yoona and Yuri almost instinctively got numb to their scalp... They should have guessed that the other party would not let the two make such a fuss.

And Sika also stared at Kim Jong-ming with interest. You know, the person who has the most confidence in Mr. Wood in the world is probably her... This is almost a psychological effect similar to faith.

"How can I take it all?" Kim Jong-ming didn't care about the performance of the three of them, but naturally spread his hands. "Look, I helped you find two main dramas in the spring, and they are still male lead partners of that level. So, although you have to decide the winner, if Yoona, your average ratings in SBS are not even more than 10%... Then the winner is meaningless, right? It only means that you are actually a trap after leaving the company's packaging and operation! Similarly, if Yuri, you are in the end of the TV series on KBS, it is only 15%..."
To be continued...
