Forty-nine:
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that he came here for this, and he felt a little complicated for a moment, "But, I am on this variety show just to attract fans. If I don't have any shining points, how can I attract fans?"
"You can go for the funny and silly route. Aren't there many newcomers who have just appeared on variety shows who have become famous by going for this route? You are good-looking and are also suitable for this route."
"I can't." Ji Qingzhou said, "I'm not good at this. I can't do it."
"Qingzhou, I'm talking to you for your own good. Otherwise, how could Luo Yuxin be willing to accept your stealing of his personality? Do you think I'm willing to come here and give you advice? We're the ones who make the show. As long as the show has high ratings, who's smarter or funnier has nothing to do with us. Aren't they all part of our show?"
"So, it was Luo Yuxin who asked you to come?" Ji Qingzhou asked.
"It's not him, but his agent called me and asked me what was going on. Is their Luo Yuxin here to be a stepping stone? You know, Luo Yuxin is very popular, and we don't want to have a conflict with him. You definitely don't want to have a conflict with him either."
Ji Qingzhou sneered in his heart when he heard this. He didn't want to have a conflict with Luo Yuxin, but he also didn't want to be bullied by Luo Yuxin. Luo Yuxin and Fang Yaoxuan were the only two people he was absolutely unwilling to tolerate!
"Director, you saw everything that happened in the secret room today. I was just doing my job the whole time, playing the game according to the program team's rules. I was doing my job, what does it have to do with Luo Yuxin? Because of him, do I have to hide everything I think of and discover in the future? Then my character should not be funny and silly, but dumb."
The director felt that he was a little unwilling to listen to advice. "It's not that I won't let you speak, but you have to find a balance. You can't let your limelight overshadow Luo Yuxin. Take the point of pointing out the owner of the notebook today. If you hadn't pointed out Meng Yuanbai, or if you pointed out Meng Yuanbai later, Luo Yuxin wouldn't be so embarrassed even if he was wrong. But what you did in the secret room was like you were competing with him. He just mentioned Ying Nian, and you mentioned Meng Yuanbai again. This is not appropriate."
"What's inappropriate about that? When I pointed out Meng Yuanbai, Ying Nian was doubting Luo Yuxin. So it seems that I helped Luo Yuxin refute Ying Nian. He should be thanking me."
When the director saw him like this, he thought that he was a newcomer with a bad temper. He was about to teach Ji Qingzhou the rules of survival for newcomers, but he heard a knock on the door.
The director looked at him and asked, "Who is it?"
Ji Qingzhou shook his head, "I don't know either." He stood up and tried to open the door, but the director yelled at him, "Sit down, don't worry about it, we haven't finished talking yet."
Ji Qingzhou turned to look at him and said seriously, "I know what you want, but I don't agree. There are no such clauses in our contract, and I don't think what I'm doing now is wrong, so I won't change it."
"Ji Qingzhou, you have to think it through. If you don't change, you will collide with Luo Yuxin. We definitely want to cooperate with Luo Yuxin for a long time. If you do this, your shots in the later stage cannot be guaranteed."
Ji Qingzhou didn't expect that he would threaten so openly. He was a little angry for a moment, but soon he smiled. He looked at the person in front of him and asked, "It must have cost you a lot of money to sign Luo Yuxin, right?"
The director didn't quite understand why he suddenly changed the subject, but it was not impossible, so he nodded, "Indeed."
"With Luo Yuxin's popularity, he should have only signed a one-season contract with you guys."
"Of course."
"Then have you ever thought about this question?" Ji Qingzhou sat down again and looked at him and said, "If I agree to you and Luo Yuxin becomes famous as you set, will Luo Yuxin be willing to continue participating in this variety show next season? Will he still be willing to continue participating in this variety show at the current price?"
The director was stunned by his question. This is indeed a problem. Variety shows and artists have a mutually beneficial relationship, but it is also a relationship of mutual selection. There are so many artists in this circle, but there are also so many variety shows in this circle. "48 Hours" is a popular variety show, but it is not the only popular variety show. No one can guarantee that the resident guests who are willing to participate in the recording of this season will be willing to participate in the next season. Therefore, the program team has always been courteous to Lian Jingxing, so that he can continue to cooperate with the program team.
"Luo Yuxin is already quite popular now. After the show is broadcast, according to the program crew's plan, he will definitely gain more fans. If he participates in the show again next year, the price will definitely not be this high. But maybe he won't continue to participate in the show at all. With a popular star like him, there should be many variety shows willing to pay a high price to invite him to participate."
