Chapter 1599 "The Real Man" (1)
Kim Yu-fan nodded: "This price is indeed enough to prove the sincerity of KBS TV, but you should know that this is not enough, far from enough, or in other words, this price is nothing in front of the programs required by KBS TV, and it is completely different."
"What's more, senior, you know that no matter how bad I am, the president of an agency, and not to mention that I still have enough side jobs, so I really don't care about such a little money. Even if the cost of an episode is a sky-high price of 120 million won, once a week, four times a month, and only 48 times a year, which adds up to 5.76 billion won. This price is really not high."
"Now, I won't talk about how the mc company is. Just my ep restaurant is almost 5 billion won in a year. Including my nightclubs, pig farms, and barbecue restaurants, it's at least 10 billion won in a year. This is the most conservative estimate."
"So, the price of 120 million won per episode is very high, but this is not enough to help KBS TV create an ace variety show. It is too difficult. I have no need to bet on my reputation and signature for such a little benefit."
Lee Shangen was stunned for a moment, but nodded quickly and said, "Of course, we know that regarding Yufan, you certainly know that not only the income brought by MC company and your side jobs, the income you earn as an artist in a year is far more than this number. Of course, the cost of your new show is only one of the benefits we KBS TV station give you, and it is the smallest. Please be patient, and there are many benefits and benefits, which are enough to prove our KBS TV station's sincerity this time."
Kim Yu-fan nodded without saying anything, but just stretched out his hand to signal Lee Sang-eun to continue speaking.
"If the program ratings are higher and the influence is greater, then this also means that the advertising costs of the program segment will become higher and higher. Our KBS TV station is willing to give you the benefits of Kim Yu-fan's personal advertising costs."
The advertising expenses of the first floor are based on the program team formed by the staff of KBS TV station, and the full support of KBS TV station, including broadcasting on KBS TV station, which is considered a promotion. The advertising expenses that can be obtained are the majority of KBS TV station. This is certain. It is already very good to give Kim Yu-fan the benefits of the first floor.
Unfortunately, Kim Yu-hwan is not satisfied with these. The first layer seems to be a lot, and KBS TV is also very interesting. But this does not satisfy Kim Yu-hwan, because Kim Yu-hwan will never be satisfied with the benefits given by KBS TV.
The reason is very simple. In Kim Yu-fan's opinion, KBS TV station is that it is too stingy. What can I do if I give myself more benefits? Your KBS TV station will not suffer any losses, so why be so stingy?
If it is really an ace variety show, it is only a layer of advertising expenses. Why should Kim Yu-fan cooperate with you KBS TV? Kim Yu-fan can give the show to M-to-produce. With his shares and status in M-to, it is also very simple to ask for half of the advertising expenses.
After all, no matter how high the advertising cost is, all of this is based on the fact that variety shows must be powerful and must reach a certain level and influence, otherwise nothing will be useless.
No matter how high your advertising costs are, it is because people who spend money value the ratings and influence of the program. The ratings and influence of the program are the basis, otherwise there would not be such a high advertising cost.
Similarly, this sentence can also be said that programs are the basis of all these revenues. You should know that if you don’t even have a program, will the manufacturer be willing to advertise for you?
Although a variety show has a great viewership and influence, it can get high advertising costs, and the TV station pays even more, but the premise is that such a program must be available.
KBS TV's so-called advertising expenses and benefits seem very high, but in fact, they are not taken seriously by Kim Yu-hwan at all. There is really such an ace variety show, and Kim Yu-hwan can cooperate with M-. With Kim Yu-hwan's status and relationship in M-, and now with the three giants CJ, it is useless to use half of the advertising expenses.
In a way, Kim Yu-hwan is giving money to KBS TV, because Kim Yu-hwan's new program, a new idea, can bring huge influence and popularity, which all represent huge benefits.
Although TV series requires people and resources, and even money, the TV station is doing the ninth floor. But you have to admit that inspiration and creativity are the most important, the most important, and the most valuable.
The reason is very simple. Kim Yu-hwan has inspiration and good programs, and can cooperate with any TV station and succeed. But no matter how rich the TV station is, no matter how many people there are, there are the most resources and the support is great, but without programs, then nothing is a fantasy and useless.
In comparison, the former is obviously more important than the latter.
Therefore, KBS TV plans to give Kim Yu-fan a layer of advertising expenses, which is indeed a lot, but I’m sorry, Kim Yu-fan doesn’t care about it at all, and at the same time he doesn’t like it.
Without my ideas and creativity, can you KBS TV station produce an ace variety show? Without ace variety show, you KBS TV station can't make a little advertising fee. Now you give me a layer of benefits and get rid of it. How can you do such a good thing? Don't you know that this is the era of copyright, what is copyright, and that is creativity.
Lee Sang-eun also noticed the disdain in Kim Yu-hwan's eyes and was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood what Kim Yu-hwan meant, which made Lee Sang-eun angry: "Yu-hwan, are you so few? Don't be too greedy. A layer of advertising benefits is already very generous. Looking at the variety shows in the entire Korean entertainment industry, there has never been a variety show. It gives part of the benefits of advertising costs to the program maker. You are the first, and can you be the first to be able to have advertising benefits? This is an unprecedented thing. What else are you dissatisfied with? What else are you humble? "
Kim Yu-fan opened Lee Sang-eun lightly and said indifferently: "Senior, you have considered too much and far away now. It seems that you have forgotten that all this is based on the program, and it is also based on the premise that the program must be successful, with ratings and influence. There is no program, no influential and ratings. Do you think those shopping malls are really stupid and are willing to waving checks to give us money?"
Lee Sang-eun was silent because Kim Yu-bun's words made sense. No matter how much he said now, especially what it means to fight for those interests, it would make people laugh. The show is not ready yet, and I don't know if the effect after the broadcast is played, and if the audience accepts it, they will argue about each other's interests here. This seems too early, and it can even be said to be too proud and too arrogant.
After a while of silence, Lee Sang-eun looked at Kim Yu-fan: "So, Yu-fan, what do you want to do? You can say it directly, but I hope you can be more rational, don't be too overdoing, and don't be too ambitious."
"Of course, I have never been an overly greedy person, but no one can take away my own thing." Kim Yu-fan said lightly, and then under Lee Sang-eun's gaze, he stretched out two fingers: "I don't have many requirements, that is, because of the advertising expenses driven by the program, I want two layers."
"Two layers, how is it possible? Yufan, you are really too much." When you heard Kim Yufan's request, Lee Sang-eun was like a cat who was stepped on his tail, and he was furious. He stood up excitedly and looked at Kim Yufan and said, "Yufan, you know, even if it is the first layer, it is a matter of the Korean variety show industry for the first time. You need two layers to speak now. Don't you think it's too much?"
"It's okay." Kim Yu-fan smiled, then stood up slowly, stretched his waist calmly, and then looked at Lee Sang-eun and said, "Senior, you have to know that it's useless to compete with me for these benefits now. The show is not prepared at all, there is no idea or creativity at all. Is it interesting to compete for these now?"
"Of course, we have to fight for this aspect now, otherwise when the show really breaks out, our KBS TV station will lose a lot by then." Lee Sang-eun glared at Kim Yu-fan and said with great milk powder.
Although Lee Shangen is also a veteran of variety shows, he has been away from the variety show industry for many years. Now he is more of a KBS TV director, and his style is more like a businessman and a politician, with interests first.
Kim Yu-fan: "But the problem is that there are no programs at all. Where is the program and how is it? Whether the audience accepts it or not. No one of us knows now. Senior, what else can you fight for?"
Lee Shangen: "Of course, we must explain these things clearly now, and then we must record them on the contract, so as not to have great benefits in the future and there will be any conflicts between the two parties over their interests."
Kim Yu-fan: "I definitely have no problem here. I have always done things according to the contract and never undermines the binding force of the contract. Please rest assured of this."
Lee Sang-eun frowned and looked at Kim Yu-fan with some dissatisfaction: "Haha, Yu-fan, you still have a lot of opinions on our KBS TV station. I understand that once any disputes of interest occur, it must be our KBS TV station that destroys the contract?"
"I didn't say that. Senior, you are a little too sensitive." Kim Yu-fan smiled and waved his hand lightly to deny it, but his eyes clearly told Lee Sang-eun that I was just worried that your KBS TV station would be too domineering and that it was too ugly to tear up the contract. Your KBS TV station had been domineering to me before.
Lee Sang-eun narrowed his eyes and looked at Kim Yu-fan and said coldly: "Yu-fan, you really think now that our KBS TV station must rely on you to create variety shows and take the opportunity to raise the price, right?"
"Haha, to be honest, there is still such a little meaning, of course this is not the main thing." Facing Lee Sang-eun's anger and dissatisfaction, Kim Yu-bun smiled and looked at Lee Sang-eun without caring, "Senior, it's not that I want to take the opportunity to raise the price, but that KBS TV has too many restrictions, and so many restrictions. If you find someone now and create an ace variety show according to the requirements of KBS TV, I will not say anything, and I will even bear all the costs alone, as my apology."
Facing Lee Sang-eun, who was a little surprised and a little confused, Kim Yu-fan continued to smile and said, "But senior, do you dare to guarantee it, or whether KBS TV dares to have this confidence? If we have it, we will make a contract. KBS TV did it. I personally bear all the costs of this program. If it cannot be done, then KBS TV must give me enough compensation of the same value. I don't want to do it too much. Just say that this program is betting, after admitting that it has failed, calculate the total investment since the show started, and then give me such a sum of money. I don't know if KBS TV is willing."
Well, Lee Sang-eun directly ignored Kim Yu-fan's words, or chose to remain silent.
This kind of thing is obviously impossible. No matter how confident KBS TV is, it will not make such a bet with Kim Yu-fan. How can KBS TV do this? Not to mention KBS TV, no TV station will make such a bet with individuals or even with an agency.
It’s not that I dare not, nor that I can’t bear to let go, but that I don’t allow such things to happen.
Although several major TV stations are competing with each other, while competing, several major TV stations will cooperate with each other, such as the strength of the agency and some rules, as well as restrictions and formulations on the value of artists. These are actually the three major TV stations responsible.
Therefore, Lee Shangen shook his head decisively and said, "Yufan, don't say this, you know it's impossible. Don't talk about our KBS TV station, no TV station will open this. Okay, let's talk about the program. If you insist on advertising endorsement, do you have the confidence to create an ace variety show?"
"If you want to be 100% sure, it is impossible to be idle, especially under the restrictions of all aspects, which is even more difficult." Kim Yu-fan shook his head and said, "The reason why I asked for two layers of advertising costs for programs is to give myself motivation. Although I am 100% sure, at least I am still a little low in my heart. I believe I should be the person you kbs TV station needs most under the current circumstances."
Lee Sang-eun nodded without saying anything, nor did he care about Kim Yu-fan's pride and confidence. After all, in terms of variety shows, Kim Yu-fan can indeed be regarded as the number one person in South Korea, which is an indisputable fact.
"Yufan, can you really produce programs that are not uncommon, but also positive, positive, and ace variety shows according to our KBS TV station's requirements?"
Kim Yu-fan smiled and said, "Senior, there are some questions you asked about this. Isn't this nonsense? Otherwise, why would I dare to ask for two layers of advertising costs? But you should also know that I am not sure, but I am more confident than others. After all, whether a program, especially a new program, can become a trump variety show and win the likes of the audience depends on whether the audience likes it or not, rather than whether we have the final say."
Lee Sang-eun nodded, then looked at Kim Yu-fan in surprise: "Did you have ideas and creativity about the new show before you come?"
Kim Yu-fan: "I dare not say anything about creativity, but most of them have some ideas. Uh~ Strictly speaking, it is not only because of this idea now. In fact, this idea has been around for several years, but I have been busy and have no time to improve it. But now I accept the invitation from your KBS TV station to create a positive and positive program. I think my idea is very suitable."
Speaking of this, Kim Yu-fan burst into a strong sense of confidence: "Although I don't know if the audience will accept programs with this kind of theme, I believe that I have confidence in my ideas and creativity. As long as everyone works together, it is not impossible for this program to become an ace variety show."
"Oh, really, this idea is something you had several years ago. So, have you thought about the name of this show now, what's the name?" Lee Sang-eun also looked at Kim Yu-hwan with anticipation, as if he didn't expect that Kim Yu-hwan really had similar ideas and creativity, which could fully meet the requirements of KBS TV.
If there is really a program that can meet the requirements of KBS TV in all aspects and can become an ace variety show, that is definitely the best thing.
Even after experiencing the huge impact of "Two Days and One Nights" with Kang Ho-dong's withdrawal, KBS TV Station, which has suffered a loss now, now knows to cherish it. If you really encounter a program that fits KBS TV Station so well and can become an ace variety show, then KBS TV Station will definitely fully support this program this time, and the tragedy of "Two Days and One Nights" will never happen again.
Looking at Director Lee Sang-eun with anticipation, Kim Yu-bun smiled, but didn't cover up anything. Anyway, it was just a show name, and it didn't matter if it was said. The main thing was the content, the shooting and recording links.
Moreover, Kim Yu-fan also discovered that Lee Sang-eun is also an old fox. If Lee Sang-eun didn't throw out some things today and let Lee Sang-eun see it completely, it is estimated that the two of them will definitely not give in at all about the negotiations on interests.
