But if we only look at property and earning power, Jiang Hudong is even richer than Liu Zaishi.
When Liu Zaishi donated a lot of the money he earned as charity, Jiang Hudong first opened a barbecue shop with his own image.
Then he used the money he earned to invest in Korean real estate. As far as Li Xianzhe knows, the real estate under his name is worth tens of billions.
In Seoul, even if Jiang Hudong retreats from the performing arts circle, he will not worry about food and drink and can spend the rest of his life by relying on barbecue shops and rent collection.
But these are sidelines in Jiang Hudong's eyes. His main business is still in variety shows.
"If you're not popular, I'll quit the variety industry with you."
When Jiang Hudong retired from the wrestling industry and was going back to apply for the wrestling coach, Li Jingkui, who had a good relationship with him, said this to him.
At that time, Li Jingkui was already the godfather of the variety industry. At present, the older generation of hosts who are still active in the variety industry have a higher generation than him, but few of them can match his influence and fame.
Just because he has an achievement that people in the variety industry can't achieve, he once interviewed the former Supreme Head of state in his variety show.
Although such people host many variety shows, what has the most far-reaching impact on the performing arts circle is "hidden cameras".
No artist has never experienced a hidden camera. This game has been inherited and retained since the suspension of a file called Li Jingkui's hidden camera hosted by Li Jingkui.
At that time, he was able to say this to Jiang Hudong, which not only represented the problem of face, but also his determination to support.
Jiang Hudong kept this sentence in mind all the time, which is one of the reasons why he came back after only disappearing from the eyes of the public for a year.
"Recently, my brother has received invitations from several programs, but I always feel that the current variety industry is very similar to the ballad industry. Fewer and fewer people want to really take variety as their favorite thing."
Jiang Hudong sighed a long sigh and turned around. He took out a new bottle of carbonated beverage from the box placed in the corner. Without a bottle opener, he directly aimed at his teeth and bit gently.
Clang~
From the beginning of chatting with Li Xianzhe to now, Jiang Hudong has drunk three bottles of carbonated drinks as beer.
Brother Li Xianzhe make complaints about his brother's state, and his earlier remarks, coupled with the current Tucao, seem to be less beautiful than he imagined.
"A national MC level person should not be busy here."
A flash of insight flashed through his pupils. Li Xianzhe didn't speak. He took the drink handed over by Jiang Hudong, and they blew directly at the bottle.
"Burp..."
Rough and crazy hiccups came out of the mouths of the two big men, and the whole person became refreshing.
Although complaining does not have to rely on drinking, some people may mention it later in a specific environment, and the blocked heart will be like a sewer pipe with a small hole, and the dirty things inside will emerge madly.
"Brother... Have you encountered any trouble recently? Say I can help you. "
He raised his arm and put it on Jiang Hudong's broad shoulder. Li Xianzhe didn't mind the sticky feeling that had been soaked by sweat.
"Sage, my brother sometimes feels that he is old and can't handle many things."
Jiang Hudong glanced at the hot atmosphere in the store and sighed heavily.
"Brother, you are only in your forties. At this time, the golden period of men is still going on."
Li Xianzhe shook his head slightly and threw his suit coat aside. He leaned on the wood behind him, holding the glass bottle in his hand.
"Besides, if I am not interested in the variety industry that day, I can consider opening barbecue shops all over South Korea, so that Jiang Hudong's barbecue shop can be seen in the busy streets of each city. This is also a success."
Today's Seoul is hotter than ever. Standing in the barbecue shop, the laughter of guests, the busy footsteps of past waiters, the aroma of various meat and vegetables wandering in the air, and the inexplicable smell of body sweat.
Although I don't know how much the indoor temperature is at present, Li Xianzhe feels like being in a big oven. Even the central air conditioner overhead and the cool wind blowing out have little effect.
What's more, the one around him is also a humanoid heat dissipation machine. Although Jiang Hudong is not short of money, it doesn't mean he doesn't want to save the expensive electricity bill.
"Hey, hey, hey... Sure enough, you can comfort people. It's interesting to think of that picture, but my brother has been running the barbecue shop for more than ten years and I'm satisfied."
Holding a cold bottle and sticking it on his face, Jiang Hudong couldn't help narrowing his eyes with that cold stimulation, "Hey, Yigu..."
The shallow sigh was like a picture. Li Xianzhe leaned aside, couldn't help taking out his mobile phone and photographed the profile of Jiang Hudong.
Whether it's the light or the protagonist's expression, it's just right.
In the photo, Jiang Hudong's sparse handful of hair is trimmed in the same shape of love. He is neatly combed in front of his forehead with sweat, and the fat on his temples and back neck are squeezed up and down from time to time.
With this pink pig apron and the ordinary shirt inside, Jiang Hudong doesn't have any shadow of national MC.
Inexplicably, there seemed to be a burst of music in Li Xianzhe's ear. A few seconds later, he came back and found that he seemed to have entered the auditory hallucination.
However, with the melody that sounded inexplicably before, there was a sudden feeling of being in the film. The dark light hit Jiang Hudong's face, and the folds were filled with the rings of "vicissitudes of life".
Having experienced the scenery of the former world's heroes and the peak period of variety show, the devastation and low tide of life, Jiang Hudong can no longer find a sharp edge mixed with the former "world's Heroes".
His hosting style is often mentioned. In addition to the iconic "loud voice", it is strong. Compared with Liu Zaishi's affinity for the people, Jiang Hudong takes a strong style. Many artists fear that he is not pretending.
But now, in front of Li Xianzhe, he is not like an elder who gives a lot of advice to his younger generation, nor is he like an interesting brother who just vent his grievances and explain his past experience with his close brother, but an old boy who... Hides his pursuit of variety under his face?
Wait
Li Xianzhe's mind flashed many strange pictures, which filled his body like the stimulation brought by inspiration, but it didn't flash like that, so people couldn't grasp it with their hands.
"If..."
A reading head took root in his mind like a wild grass. With Li Xianzhe looking at Jiang Hudong, it became a lot weird.
He didn't seem to notice that there was more thinking in Li Xianzhe's eyes. Jiang Hudong was depressed for a while, and his mouth began to chatter again.
"In recent years, my brother often feels that famous PD is like a well-known writer. The frequency of works can not keep up with the demand of TV stations, which also gives many new PD opportunities.
But when my brother was doing these programs, he found himself like a machine. More and more variety shows were not creative, and the people's eyes were becoming more and more picky.
People on the other side of the TV station may also see this. If the quality is not good, it can only be piled up in quantity.
So over the years, many viewers have begun to question us, thinking that we have no innovation, and the program is always an old-fashioned theme.
I don't know how many people feel when chatting with their brother in private. Although the conditions are difficult, everyone has a good time in the variety show... "
