 Comedian Yasuko has been inundated with criticism.
 It all started on the November 1 broadcast of &#8220;The Common Ten! SP&#8221; (Fuji Television Network), which aired on November 1. The guest, Yasuko, was shopping on that day. The day of the location recording happened to be her payday, so she checked the amount of the guaranty she had received on the spot.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 When Yasuko saw the amount, she said
 She exclaimed, &#8220;What?
 she exclaimed, and continued
 What happened?
 and continued, &#8220;What happened? As anyone can imagine, the amount of money paid to Yasuko was more than she had imagined.
<h2> TV money transferred to her two months after she appeared on the show.</h2>
 The proof is in the pudding, she said.
 It&#8217;s the highest amount ever!
 Her eyes lit up when she saw the amount of money in the studio.
 &#8220;I couldn&#8217;t stop laughing,&#8221; she said.
 I couldn&#8217;t stop laughing,&#8221; she said in the studio.
 I wonder how much money was transferred,
 I can&#8217;t speak for all agencies, but recently the relationship between agencies and talents has improved, and the agencies no longer take 70 to 90% of the fee as they did in the past. Yasuko is the most successful comedian nowadays, so I think she usually receives a considerable amount of money. Even so, the fact that Yasuko was so shocked must mean that she received a considerable amount of money.
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 Of course, there are exceptions, but as Yasuko herself said, in most cases, the fees for TV appearances are paid two months after the month in which the work is done. The money is transferred from the station to the office, from which the office&#8217;s share is deducted, and then paid to the talent himself/herself.
<div data-friday-nextpage-lead=" Nippon TV has admitted that the &quot;gratuity&quot; is called a fee."></div>
The program airs on November 1, which means that the location shooting was probably done two weeks prior to the broadcast, at the shortest, and even if it took time for editing, etc., it would have been done in October. The fact that the fee was paid at that time means that it was for work done in August, if we work backwards. It depends on how much Yasuko was working during that period, but if it corresponds to an unbelievable amount of money, it would have to be &#8220;that.
 Yasuko&#8217;s number of programs in which she has appeared has been increasing rapidly, but the only job that can be considered high remuneration is the one at &#8230;&#8230;. What probably came to viewers&#8217; minds was &#8220;24-Hour TV 47: Will Love Save the Earth?
<div data-friday-ad-slot="AD_inArticle"></div>
 Yasuko was chosen to run in this year&#8217;s &#8220;Charity Marathon,&#8221; the annual highlight of the program, but there was a lot of talk about her appearance fee, in other words, how much she would be paid.
 For many years now, opinions have been flying back and forth about the fee for the &#8220;Charity Marathon. The most common is,
 The most common opinion is that it is strange that a high fee is paid for a charity event.
 According to an employee of an advertising agency, &#8220;The premise of that opinion is that the fee is too high for a charity event,
 According to an advertising agency employee, &#8220;The premise of this opinion is that the fee is &#8216;expensive. In fact, the amount has not been disclosed, but the figure of 10 million yen is being bandied about. If true, this is an outrageous amount of money for a single program. It is an unthinkable amount for most people, but it is possible for a famous Hollywood star to make a live appearance in a studio.
 However, since it is a charity program, the nature of the program is different.
<h2> No pay is my offer.</h2>
 Yasuko herself responded to such comments on her social networking site,
 There are rumors flying around that I was paid 10 million yen for the charity marathon, but I didn&#8217;t receive a single penny! You should stop believing speculations and false rumors.
 He responded, &#8220;You should stop believing in speculation and false rumors. He continued,
 He continued, &#8220;The &#8216;no-fee&#8217; part was my own offer.
 He continued, &#8220;&#8216;No fee&#8217; was my offer.

 However, she revealed that a large sum of money had been paid to her this time, and whether or not it was for the &#8220;marathon&#8221; remuneration remained unclear. Viewers began to give her a hard time. The public was understandably tempted to say, &#8220;What the heck, she&#8217;s getting paid for it.
 A major entertainment executive said, &#8220;NTV pays the agency.
 &#8220;We can imagine that the amount paid by NTV to the office was very high. She must have been training every day for a month and a half for the show, so I don&#8217;t think she had a lot of other work to do. Inevitably, you have to save other work. In order to compensate for the work they had to do during that period, Nippon TV must have paid them as &#8220;necessary expenses&#8221; or &#8220;production cooperation expenses. Yasuko confirmed the amount of money on her phone during the program, but I don&#8217;t know if it was the total amount or a breakdown of the salary. I don&#8217;t think he would know if it was related to &#8220;24 Hour TV.
 Otherwise, her income would have been reduced while she was training, and both she and her agency would have been in trouble.
 But since she is so astonished that she can&#8217;t stop laughing, it must be a substantial amount. Unless she reveals the breakdown of her monthly income, the truth is still in the dark, and Yasuko was not lying, so she is not responsible.
 In fact, NTV did not ignore the questions that erupted every time. In 2000, through the BPO, NTV responded to questions from viewers as follows.
 In 2000, NTV responded to a viewer&#8217;s question through the BPO as follows: &#8220;Basically, we ask for a volunteer fee for the talents who appear on &#8220;24 Hours TV. However, in some cases, such as those with long hours, we do offer some payment in the form of a gratuity.
 Some of our talents decline to accept gratuities.
 That said, what is pointed out is the inexplicability of the fact that money is paid to the performers of &#8220;charity programs,&#8221; no matter what form it takes. Many people are fed up with the allegations of payoffs that keep coming up.
 In order to make the performers more &#8220;charity-conscious,&#8221; why not ask them to donate their fees to charity if they want to, and then announce their donation? The danger is that no one would be willing to accept the offer.
