Chapter 792 Overspending

Not only does Li Menglong think that Li Soonkyu is rich, but even Lee Soonkyu himself feels particularly rich. This situation is somewhat different from the money they themselves earn. Now it is more like other people's money, and they don't feel bad no matter how they spend it.

Just when Li Menglong took Xu Xian to eat and drink, Li Shunkyu also hid in a corner, took out a small black notebook, and counted items in it.

The accounts are not complicated, because her miscellaneous expenses are very small, or Li Shunkyu is too lazy to remember the tens of thousands of yuan in accounts, which tarnishes her status as a wealthy person.

The main expense in the early stage was the performance fees of the girls, which totaled more than 50 million. As for the idols later, Lee Soon Kyu also wanted to be mean, and things were still within control until now.

But I don’t know why I was seduced by Hyomin just now. Anyway, Lee Soonkyu was acting coquettishly and complaining, and he was immediately praised. He was so happy that he gave this little wife a five million acting fee.

After finishing speaking, Li Soonkyu ran here to reflect on himself. Simple addition and subtraction, one person is five million, ten people are fifty million, a dozen people...

Five million to record one episode is not cheap for people like Hyomin and Kim Heechul, but it is still a friendly price, but not that low.

Normal programs only increase the price by one to two million. Of course, these refer to first-line idols, who are also the more expensive group of guests.

Normal programs invite one or two such people, and other guests are replaced by cheap newcomers or variety artists. Who is as silly as Lee Soon Kyu to invite so many A-list idols in one go?

This is simply a waste of resources. A normal program team would not be so crazy, because the guests of the program must have priorities, so isn't it stupid to spend so much money to hire a bunch of human background panels?

And Lee Soon Kyu became a fool in this helpless situation. It would be okay if that was the case. The key is that Li Shunkyu regards the money as her own pocket money. Now not only is there no money left, but she has to pay it back. Is there any justice?

In anger, Lee Soon Kyu instinctively began to shirk responsibility, blaming Kim Taeyeon and the others for being bad. After all, she was the producer who made the decision. But it's natural to blame Li Menglong. This guy must have planned to trick him like this from the beginning.

You never have to think too much when calling Li Menglong, just say whatever you have to say: "Li Menglong, I ask for an increase in the program budget!"

"Uh...you want more?" Li Menglong's first reaction was to doubt that Li Shunkyu felt that the pocket money was not enough, right? It's just that if he puts the company's money into his own pocket, Li Enxi will get angry if he does it too much.

So Li Menglong could only give some good advice: "Don't do this. There will be many opportunities to make money in the future. At worst, I will give you some dividends in a while!"

"What do you mean by this? I, Li Shunkyu, am obsessed with money?" Li Shunkyu said dissatisfied, especially since the other person didn't answer. It was obviously acquiescence. Now he stepped on Li Shunkyu's painful foot.

She's a popular idol, and she came over to wipe your Li Menglong's butt. She worked so hard and put so much thought into it, and in the end she was asked to lend money? Is this too bullying?

"Li Menglong, let me tell you one last time, the program cost has exceeded the budget, you can figure it out yourself!"

"Really?" Li Menglong was really surprised. It is difficult for a person to make 100 million a day, but it is not easy to spend 100 million. Why does it feel that Li Shunkyu is very talented in spending money.

But it’s hard for him to get involved in this kind of thing, and besides, he has no money: “Ahem, as the producer of this issue, I think you should still shoulder this responsibility...”

"Don't talk to me like a bureaucracy! I'm just asking you if you'll pay me back. If you don't pay me, I'll stop recording!"

"No, what a difference, I'll make up for you!" What else could Li Menglong say besides raising his hands in surrender.

Because he was driving, Li Menglong turned on the loudspeaker. Xu Xian listened to the whole process. He felt funny and also curious about how Li Menglong would handle it, but now it seemed that Li Menglong didn't take it seriously at all.

Li Menglong didn’t need to explain Xu Xian’s confusion, because Li Shunkyu jumped out: “Who cares about your two stinky riches! As an outstanding young woman in the new era, I am very rich!”

Li Shunkyu's arrogance is to be expected. The least reason why she called to ask for money was mainly to complain and vent on the one hand. On the other hand, she wanted to take credit and let Li Menglong know what she was like. How hard it is.

Xu Xian no longer planned to get involved in the matter between these two couples, because they could handle it well. She was just curious about how the money was spent, so she naturally asked.

"Oh? The maknae is here too?" Li Shunkyu was obviously panicked for a moment. After all, as a perfect eldest sister, Li Shunkyu's performance just now was a bit too low: "Ahem, spend all your money? It's nothing, just joking with Li Menglong Woolen cloth."

"Who am I? Lee Soon Kyu, hey, it takes no time to adapt to the role of producer. Everything is under Unnie's control. I will teach you later!" Lee Soon Kyu forcibly started to find a place.

Li Menglong and Xu Xian looked at each other and curled their lips at the same time. They still had to give Li Shunkyu face, otherwise they would still be the ones who suffered in the end.

"What are you two going to do? Are you still filming?"

"No, let's have a celebration party for Xiaoxian! Together with the crew!"

"Isn't it appropriate for us to do this kind of thing? Besides, why should you celebrate our maknae's success?"

The topic is almost over at this point. After all, he was a little embarrassed just now. Naturally, Li Shunkyu had to be tougher to get the situation back. Li Menglong cooperated very well.

After hanging up the phone, Li Soonkyu's originally straight waist immediately softened. Saying and doing are always two completely different things, and it's not like he and Li Menglong just exchanged money with each other.

In fact, the best solution now is to give one million dollars to one person as I thought at the beginning. But first of all, Xiaomin has already spoken, and she doesn't intend to go back on it.

In the end, it can't be one million for others, just Hyomin's five million. Isn't this looking down on other people? Those who can come are friends who think highly of her. As a big boss in the world, Lee Soon Kyu has no intention of breaking his trust.

So now the first person to start making plans is my own family. At worst, I can give them some bags or something to make up for it, but I hit a snag with the first person.

"You want me to cut my salary? I've been working for two days and can leave early tomorrow morning. Are you talking to me about a salary reduction now? Are you crazy?" Kim Taeyeon looked like she was looking at a mental patient.

Lee Soon Kyu didn't even have time to wipe the saliva from his face. He was under the roof. Besides, what Kim Taeyeon said made sense. This typical behavior of burning bridges by crossing rivers is indeed excessive.

"Can I borrow it? I'll just borrow it for one day and I'll pay it back to you when I get home tomorrow night!"

"Aren't you just causing trouble?" After asking the reason, Kim Taeyeon said in confusion: "Why don't you just fill in the money yourself!"

In fact, the overspending is not too much. With the thickness of Lee Soon Kyu's personal treasury, it should not be short of the money. However, Kim Taeyeon obviously thinks simply. This is a matter of professional ethics as a producer.

It was her ability to persuade Kim Taeyeon to take the initiative to cut her salary, and finally controlled the production cost to less than 100 million. If she took the money herself, Li Menglong would laugh to death, and she might not be able to hold her head high in the future.

They were all her sisters, especially after Lee Soon Kyu promised a huge amount of interest, Kim Taeyeon reluctantly agreed, but Kim Taeyeon also had a bottom line, at least the same as those others.

So until the end of Lee Soon Kyu's show, the price of all the guests was the same. As for her, the producer, director, writer and main MC, she received a symbolic remuneration of one yuan.

In Lee Soon Kyu's words, he is a high-spirited person who regards money as dirt. Little did he know who was showing off all kinds of stinkings day after day after seeing that there might be 50 million left.

In order not to let these distracting thoughts affect him for too long, Li Soonkyu decided to hand out the money first. Many people refused because they had already had a fulfilling day, and after taking the money, it felt like coming to work.

However, Li Soonkyu's attitude was still relatively firm. After contacting various companies, he sent the money directly from SW. In fact, this money should be spent by the TV station, that is, tvn.

However, Three Meals a Day is not produced by tvn. It is tvn that bought the right to broadcast this variety show, which is similar to buying a TV series, so all the early investment is counted as SW.

As the saying goes, it’s hard to buy a sister’s happiness after spending all the money. After spending this large amount of money, I owed a lot of foreign debt, but I can’t hold back Lee Soon-gyu’s happiness. The money is spent, so I’ll think about it again and again. It’s not Lee Soon Kyu’s style.

"Okay, if you really want to express your gratitude, let's join in a meal tonight!" Although Li Soonkyu said so, there is no limit to how much money can be spent in Jingshan. It is just to give everyone a step up.

While they were eating and drinking here, Li Menglong was getting better and better. Xu Xian, the absolute protagonist, didn't know who had the bad idea. He actually got a cake and insisted on letting Xu Xian blow out the candles and make a wish.

"I would like to watch Changhong..." Xu Xian also said it loudly in response to the situation.

However, Li Menglong was not very satisfied: "Isn't this a waste of wishes? Our TV series will definitely be a big hit. Hurry up and change it, such as not failing the exam or something!"

"Then it's not a waste?" Xu Xian said arrogantly: "I never fail exams!"

"Then I hope you become more and more beautiful!" Others noticed.

"Who had the bad idea? Isn't our Xu Xian always beautiful?"
