When I Have Money
Chapter 606: Return to Seoul
Hot recommendation:
Yang Kun only now knows that the prices for artists of the same level as Kim Jong-kook are very cheap. Although Yang Kun knows that Korean artists do not make much money, he really does not know that even Kim Jong-kook’s performance in variety shows costs 10 million won.
No wonder Jin Zhongguo participated so actively when there was a show invitation from China. After all, the price offered by Huaxia here is 100 million won, which is ten times the cost of his performance in Korea!
Including the "Huang Chih-rye" who came to the mainland to make money, he returned to the Korean show and said that his performance fee was one hundred times that of South Korea. Because his level of appearance in a Korean variety show is only worth ‘one million won’, and the price offered on the mainland is 100 million won, so it is naturally a hundred times in his eyes.
So when Yang Kun got the pay of ‘Ten Thousand Won’, Han Te praised the show crew for being really generous. After all, you don't have a certain level in Korea, and you really can't get tens of millions of pay for appearing in variety shows in Korea.
Yang Kun smiled on the road and said, "By the way, if Zhien usually appears in variety shows, how much is her performance fee?"
Hante said, "It's about the same as you, between 10 million and 20 million. The performance fees given by different programs are different. Some programs will give more money if the production fee is higher. However, Zhien is now basically No more variety shows."
Yang Kun was very surprised and said, "Is it only 20 million won for Zhien to appear in variety shows?"
Hante nodded earnestly: "Now the funds for each program group are very tight, and each program group is carefully calculated in terms of costs. Nowadays, many idols do not even charge performance fees in order to be able to promote it. Woolen cloth."
Hante continued to tell Yang Kun about the entertainment industry in South Korea: "Well~~ It's like "Knowing Brother" with a relatively high rating. This show has some idols who want to go, but can't go. By the way, you know "Saturday Idol"? There is no performance fee for that show, and tens of thousands of dollars in carriage fees for the show. And if you want to go to that show for publicity, you have to have a certain relationship."
Yang Kun was very confused and said, "Didn't I watch the news that the performance fee in South Korea has increased?"
Han Teh listened to Yang Kun's words, and he laughed instantly: "You are talking about the performance fees of film and television works. For example, Hyun Bin, these are performance fees of hundreds of millions of won. In the past, '100 million' were at the level of Bae Yongjoon. Yes, most of the first-line actors are almost in units of '100 million'. The main reason is that after Netflix entered aggressively, the pay for all the actors has increased."
Netflix, the world's largest online video platform, has very strong capital.. So after they came in, not only the income of writers was increased, but the wages of actors were also increased a lot. If other investors do not follow Netflix to increase the pay of actors, it will be difficult to invite well-known actors to perform, so Korean actors ushered in a wave of salary increases.
Yang Kun smiled after hearing this and said, "I thought all performance fees have been increased."
Hante immediately complained and said: "How is it possible? The virtues of the TV station... even hope that everyone will only work and not charge money. In fact, the income of the TV station has been offset by the Internet media a lot, and it is no longer the same as before. It’s so dominant, so the show crew can’t wait for a penny to split the two."
Yang Kun said: "I still see some programs that are very willing to invest, such as Jiang Hudong's "The Great Escape", the production fee is not cheap. "Why are you idle?" You are also very willing to invest?"
Hante smiled: "Those you mentioned are master programs. Such large-scale program TV stations are still very good at investing. After all, TV stations want a program that can be obtained! As for other small programs, they are all upholding their ability. Save by saving. The key is that the director saves money and has to take out the ratings."
After the three major TV stations in South Korea were affected by the financial impact of '08, private TV stations smashed in a lot of money and began to seize the traditional media market. And those private stations have the support of large consortiums, so when the three major TV stations were hit by the financial crisis, a lot of digging started for 10 years... and entered a period of explosive growth!
Nowadays, traditional media has been challenged by online media, so the money of the program group is not so easy to apply for, except for those master shows, so the performance fees of variety shows have not been high.

Yang Kun and Hante went back to Seoul chatting all the way, and Hante sent Yang Kun back home. After arriving home, Yang Kun took a shower and called Li Zhien. He was soon connected. Li Zhien's voice was extremely gentle: "Oh, come back? Did the shooting go well?"
Yang Kun replied, "The shooting went well, where are you? Will you come up for dinner at night?"
Li Zhien replied: "I was outside with Renna. I won't come back to eat at night. Renna and I will eat out. I'll be back later."
"I see, so be it."
After Yang Kun hung up the phone, he walked towards the refrigerator, took out a can of iced coffee from it, and stood in front of the French window, sipping it. The coffee drank quickly, and he stayed at home for a while before leaving with the car key.
After Li Zhien hung up the phone with Yang Kun, Liu Renna smiled and said, "You two are in a good relationship."
As Li Zhien's closest friend, she certainly knows that Li Zhien and Yang Kun have reached the stage of their relationship. It's just that because they both live in the same community this time, their relationship has not been discovered so far.
Liu Renna's words made Li Zhien smile gently: "Well, it's okay. When I am with him, I feel more at ease and calm. We have never realized that there is no particular passion now."
After hearing this, Liu Renna nodded slightly and said: "I think it's good for you to be so sincere, because I think the true feelings should be so plain and real. Those who are too strong love come quickly and go quickly. And Two people have been together for a long time, but they don’t have too much passion. Instead, they can go to the end with each other."
Li Zhien nodded in agreement: "Well, I also think such a true relationship is the most comfortable, and there will be no burden on each other."
Liu Renna asked: "By the way, what program did Yang Kun take part in?"
Li Zhien: "Bai Jong-won's "Delicious Plaza", Han Te called me yesterday and told me that the program team intentionally invited Yang Kun to the program to fix it."
Liu Renna was a little surprised: "Isn't he, didn't he go as a guest? Why did the filming for the first period be mixed and fixed?"
Li Zhien guessed and replied: "I guess... it should be the show crew watching him very good at cooking, right? The skill show is a cooking show."
Speaking of Yang Kun’s cooking skills, Liu Renna remembered the home cooking at Yang Kun’s house last time. She immediately smiled and said, “Yes, Yang Kun’s cooking skills are really great. When will you invite me? Go have a meal, Zhien?"
Li Zhien said: "I just said I couldn't go back to eat. Do you really want to eat his cooking?"
Liu Renna said, "It's safer at home. By the way, does he know Western cuisine? I want creamy pasta, steak, and seafood."
"Yes, I saw him cook it at home, he said that Western-style cooking is much simpler than Huaxia cooking. Do you really want to eat it at home? It's three o'clock now, I don't know if he can make it..."
Liu Renna nodded and said, "Well, let's eat at home, I drool thinking about Yang Kun's craftsmanship."
"Okay.." Li Zhien took out his mobile phone as he said. Yang Kun just got into his blue car at this time, and Li Zhien called back. Yang Kun answered her call: "What's the matter?"
"I just asked Renna, we decided to come back for dinner. We were walking around for a while, and we will be back at about half past six. Let's make some Western dishes. She wants to eat creamy pasta, steak, and seafood."
"I see." Yang Kun was thinking about going out to buy something before he came back to cook by himself. As a result, Li Zhien and two of them said they would come back for dinner in the evening~lightnovelpub.net~Yang Kun took their share and made them. That's it. Steak, simple, Yang Kun arranged a Wellington steak.
You can buy some puff pastry in supermarkets, and you can just fry a mushroom sauce when you go home, and then make a red wine sauce. Seafood is also simple. Buying a lobster and making a Michelin three-star ‘beet leek lobster’, pasta is even simpler.
.......
In the evening, at half past six, Li Zhien and Ren Na came to Yang Kun's house together. Yang Kun opened the door to greet the two of them. Li Zhien carried the clothes he bought for Yang Kun: "Here, I went shopping and saw a good T-shirt. I bought it for you."
Yang Kun took Li Zhien's thoughts, and then nodded to Liu Renna: "Thank you, come in. Rennaxi, it's been a long time."
Liu Renna said politely with a smile, "Hey, I'm bothering you again today, I'm coming to your house again!"
"You're welcome, you're a friend of Zhien, it's too late for me to welcome you. Come in..."
After the two entered the house, looking at the three "small breads" placed by Yang Kun, Li Zhien pointed and said, "What is this?"
Yang Kun said, "Wellington steak, didn't you say you want to eat steak? I didn't make a large portion of Wellington, so I made a small portion like 100 grams of beef per person."
Li Zhien nodded and said, "Oh? When can I eat, I'm all hungry."
Yang Kun responded: "Within half an hour. I'll do it right away~~ You sit down, Renna, you choose a bottle of red bar."
Speaking of Yang Kun, he began to put a small portion of Wellington steak into the oven, and then the lobster started to warm the butter. The Michelin three-star signature "Beet Leek Lobster" was added with butter as a medium. Warm..
