Quick Trigger HELP

I am trying to write a trigger that will populate a contact lookup field with a specific contact. I am struggling to figure out how to code the specific contact into the trigger. 

Check out the code and you will see what I mean...

Any help would be MUCH APPRECIATED! Thanks guys! 
  
trigger CampaignTrigger on Campaign (after insert) {

	for(Campaign camp:Trigger.New){
		if(camp.Project_Manager__c == null)
		camp.Project_Manager__c = WHAT DO I PUT HERE?? THE USERS ID? 
	}



}

Use User Id (If Project_Manager__c is lookup or master to user 
  
trigger CampaignTrigger on Campaign (after insert) {

	for(Campaign camp:Trigger.New){
		if(camp.Project_Manager__c == null)
			// Yes .. You need to add the user Id 
		// In this case i am getting campagin Owner Manager Id and stamping 
		camp.Project_Manager__c = [Select id from User where Id =:OwnerId].ManagerId ; 
	}



}

I want the project manager to always equeal a specific contact. It will always be this same specific contact for all records created. So the Project Manager lookup field should always be filled with the contact "Kris Webster"
