Episode 610: The unknown reason for casting

At 5:20 p.m. on August 1, SBS's "Sunday is Really Good", a new variety show, officially aired, and the ratings rose straight from the start, and the real-time monitoring data has exceeded 10%, gradually approaching the ratings of the first episode in which Lee Hyo-ri and Hwang Jung-yin participated, and soon broke through the highest rating of 12% for the first episode of "RM", which made Cho Hyo-jin and the senior management of the variety show production bureau happy. The competition between the three major Korean stations www.biquge.info "RM" is very fierce, and the main competitive program of "RM" at the same time is "Two Days and One Night" of KBS2's "Happy Sunday", and the failure of "Birth of a Family 2" has put Zhao Hyo-jin and the variety show production bureau under great pressure, and everyone is unsure whether the new "RM" will succeed.

Except for the ratings of the first episode, the ratings of the second and third episodes of "RM" did not exceed 10%, and even declined week by week, and it dropped to 6% last week. Although it is normal for the ratings of new variety shows to be unstable in the first two months, and they can generally be maintained as long as they exceed 4%, but "RM" is produced by the original team of "The Birth of a Family", and there is Liu Zaishi in this mountain town, but it is even 10% 's ratings can't be guaranteed, it's really a bit of a slap in the face, so Liu Zaishi wanted to invite Zheng Xiyi to come out, and when Zheng Xiyi and Jessica really starred, the SBS Variety Show Production Bureau immediately cut the highlights in the finished film into a trailer, and couldn't wait to broadcast it in prime time every day, just to make the ratings of "RM" look better.

Zheng Xiyi himself didn't pay much attention to the ratings of this episode of "RM", because the filming of "The Secret Garden" is about to start, and a script reading meeting will be held for three consecutive days from today.

"Anihasse, Jung Hee-yi's predecessor nim, Ha Ji-won senior's nim, I'm Lee Jong Suk who plays Han Tae-sun, please take care of me in the future!" A young and handsome boy helped push open the door and bent down deeply to greet Jung Hee-yi and Ha Ji-won who were about to enter the SBS building.

Ha Ji Won's eyes hidden behind his sunglasses glanced at Zheng Xiyi, nodded slightly, and said, "Oh, it's Zhong Shuo......"

Zheng Xiyi stopped at his feet, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Oh, you are Lee Jong Suk?"

Ha Ji Won knows Lee Jong Suk, because the two of them are artists under the same agency, but they just know each other, and when they saw Zheng Xiyi stop, they also stopped, hooked the corners of their mouths, and said with a smile: "Hey, Hee Yi, you also know Zhong Suk?"

Zheng Xiyi shook his head and said, "Ani, I've only heard this name recently, and it seems to be a very famous model." ”

Ha Ji Won smiled even more weirdly, and kept looking up and down at Lee Jong Suk, whose head was almost buried in his chest, if it weren't for the sunglasses, everyone could even see the evil taste that was about to overflow in her eyes, "Ha, Hee-yi, you fashion terrorist actually pay attention to well-known models? or male models? Eh, I remember, Han Tae-sun, is it the singer who likes the same sex? No wonder, tsk tsk......"

Li Zhongshuo's heart trembled, but in such a hot summer, he only felt cold all over his body, glanced at Zheng Xiyi quickly from the corner of his eye, and quickly lowered his head a little more, and said secretly in his heart: "No, doesn't Zheng Xiyi often spread scandals? Doesn't he only like young women? What does Jiyuan's predecessor mean by this?"

Zheng Xiyi glared at Ha Ji Won speechlessly, this eldest sister was a proud strong woman before she was familiar with it, but once she got acquainted with it, she would find that she was better than anyone else, "Sister Ji Yuan, it's the first time I've met Lee Jong Suk, and your joke like this will scare the children......"

Ha Ji Won looked at Lee Jong Suk, whose face was a little pale with fright, covered his mouth and said with a smile: "Mianada, Jong Suk, I'm just joking, don't take it seriously......"

Lee Jong Suk hurriedly saluted again: "Senior nim is polite, I understand, it's just a joke, hahahaha......"

Zheng Xiyi couldn't bear to look at the child's stiff smiling face anymore, anyway, it's useless to explain now, don't look at Ha Zhiyuan and he are in the same company, but he definitely won't know how dark his own sister is, so he can only say to Ha Zhiyuan with a wry smile: "Stop playing, nuna, a room of people waiting for us, let's go, let's go, it's rude if you're late!"

Ha Ji Won pursed his lips and smiled, regardless of Lee Jong Suk, he took a long step and left, Jung Hee Yi shook his head with a wry smile helplessly, and said to Lee Jong Suk: "Let's take the elevator up together, Lee Jong Suk, you are also here to participate in the script study meeting." ”

How could Li Zhongshuo have the courage to take the elevator with Zheng Xiyi at this time, but it was difficult to refuse, so he had to lower his head and whispered: "Inside, Ah to Yi Smecta, Kangsang Smecta, Zheng Xiyi's predecessor nim." ”

Although he agreed, he didn't move at all, Zheng Xiyi didn't bother to say anything more when he saw that he didn't move, walked a few steps quickly to catch up with Ha Ji Won, and complained to her in a low voice, Ha Ji Won glanced back at Lee Jong Suk, who was still standing at the door with his head down, and laughed.

Yoo Hyun Woo took a deep look at Lee Jong Suk when he passed him, Lee Jong Suk hurriedly bent down and saluted again, just wanted to say hello Yoo Hyun Woo but had already left quickly, leaving only Lee Jong Suk in a cold sweat looking at their backs with palpitations.

got on the elevator to see if there were no outsiders, Ha Ji Won took off his sunglasses and said to Zheng Xiyi with a smile: "How about it, I have helped you with all the righteousness, how can you thank me?"

Zheng Xiyi rolled his eyes helplessly and simply ignored her.

Downstairs, Li Zhongshuo looked at the agent with a worried face and said, "Brother, Zhiyuan's predecessor nim shouldn't lie to me, I will have to shoot with Zheng Xiyi's predecessor nim for three or four months in the future, what can I do!"

His agent Zhao Chengchu was also secretly distressed, not knowing whether what Ha Jiyuan just said was true or false, although he had the heart to ask Daniel Zhang, as a model agent, he and Daniel Zhang, the head of the room, nim, were also many levels apart, which he could ask if he wanted to.

But now is not the time to dwell on these, he can only say quietly on his face: "No matter what, the most important thing is to hurry up now, as a junior and supporting role, you are later than the hero and heroine and the seniors, is this an elephant?"

Lee Jong Suk also knew very well in his heart that no matter what, it was impossible for the company and the agent to let him give up this role because of this little thing, although today's encounter was precisely because of this role, but if he retreated, he would not be able to step into the film and television industry for half a step in the future, so he had to grit his teeth and nodded: "Inside, Ah to Yi Smecta, let's just go up the stairs, the elevator is too slow." ”

Jung Hee-yi and Ha Ji Won also had to go upstairs to meet the senior management of the SBS Film and Television Production Bureau first, they didn't go to the script reading site so quickly, and the elevator in the SBS building took a long time to go up and down because there were too many people, so there was nothing wrong with Lee Jong Suk's opinion, so Zhao Chengchu nodded and climbed the stairs with him to set off for the script study meeting on the sixth floor.

According to the unspoken rules of the film and television industry, as the protagonist, in addition to the salary, there are some invisible benefits, such as some small supporting roles in the play will be preferred from the artists provided by the protagonist's agency, which can be regarded as seniors promoting their juniors. Although the character of Han Tae-sun is gay, there are not many scenes, and the lines are even more pitiful, but it is very distinctive and easy to shine, so S.M recommended Shinye's Minho to the crew as usual. Speaking of which Minhao is indeed very suitable to play this role, firstly, Han Tae-sun in the play is also a singer, requiring actors to have a certain degree of musical literacy, and secondly, this role does not have high requirements for acting skills, but the requirements for appearance are very high, it must be a young and beautiful little fresh meat, Minhao meets all the requirements as the face of shinee, S.M thought that this role could be captured, but he didn't expect that in the end, the crew chose a model to play Han Tae-sun.

Although Lee Jong Suk is also an artist of the company, he can be regarded as Ha Ji Won's junior brother, and it is not unruly to play this supporting role for him, but there are many rights and wrongs in the entertainment industry, and Min Ho has not fought Lee Jong Suk In the eyes of others, it is equivalent to S.M has not competed, which also means that Jung Hee Yi has not fought for Ha Ji Won. S.M, an idol agency, has never fought for this kind of film and television agency is nothing, but Zheng Xiyi's loss to Ha Ji Won will damage his dignity to some extent, at least most people in the circle will think that Ha Ji Won has overpowered Zheng Hee-yi, but I am afraid that many people in the crew will think so in their hearts.

Although Ha Ji Won thinks that Zheng Hee Yi should not care about this little thing, but in this circle, even if it is just a rumor, it will become true because of the public opinion, and if the crew treats her and Zheng Hee Yi differently because of this misunderstanding, it is really likely that Zheng Xi Yi and her will have a gap, so Ha Ji Won did not get too close to Lee Jong Suk just now, and even teased Lee Jong Suk mischievously, and also hinted to Zheng Xi Yi that he and he are just ordinary colleagues, it is better to be close to you.

However, Ha Ji Won is not so kind, not only did Lee Jong Suk, who was teasing just now, turn pale, but also badly punished Zheng Xiyi, and from now on, the rumor that "Zheng Xiyi is gay" is afraid that there will be another corroboration. What Ha Ji Won didn't know was that the crew had already explained to Jung Hee-yi in private about the selection of the role of Han Tae-sun, so Jung Hee-yee wouldn't care about Lee Jong-seok at all, because the mystery was not for outsiders, and he was the one who took advantage.

The actor of "Secret Garden" was originally selected Hyun Bin, but when Zheng Xiyi and Ueno Shuri had an affair last year, there was a rumor that Zheng Xiyi was rejected by the Korean film and television industry, so he would leave South Korea to develop in Japan, and starring in Japanese movies and TV series was a rumor that prepared for this, which made Korean fans complain about the three major TV stations, SBS, as the TV station that cooperates with Zheng Xiyi the most and can be called his mother's family, naturally wants to be more active, so the executives of the Film and Television Production Bureau patted their heads and put the annual drama "Secret Garden" 's actor was changed from Hyun Bin to Jung Hee-yi.

Although the starring candidates have not been announced before, and now it is replaced by Jung Hee-yi, who is taller than Hyun Bin, no one can say anything, but it is always a bit unreasonable to suddenly change the leading role, so the crew sent the invisible benefit of Han Tae-sun to Lee Jong Suk, which can also be regarded as compensation.

In Zheng Xiyi's opinion, this is actually the remake of "ALL" back then, but now he has become a vested interest like Lee Byung-hun, and SBS takes care of him so much, and also advances the filming time by more than a month for his schedule, and sets aside half a month of vacation for him to promote the movie during the filming process, which treats him like his own son, so even if Minhao loses, he can only keep silent.
