Chapter 57 People are looking for the female number one
Nominally "apologizing" for himself, and clamoring to celebrate that he got the opportunity to audition, Wang Nanqian walked into SHINee's nanny car from the barbecue shop in a straight line, but the guys at SHINee were already drunk and almost unconscious. Thinking of the staggered appearance of those people, he couldn't help but sympathize with the agent brother. After such a troublesome matter, he was willing to take a long detour to bring himself back to the company, and Wang Nanqian naturally did not make a more excessive request that he hoped that brother would send him back to the dormitory: seeing that the time was almost 11 o'clock, he inexplicably didn't want to go back to the dormitory to be alone with the equally frustrated Bian Boxian, so he turned his head and turned into the small studio that had been assigned to him during this time.
Buried his head between his hands slumped on the table, he sighed gloomily that when people are not going well, they really encounter anything, and it has been this time, and he can still meet the deputy minister of the planning department when he goes upstairs: Wang Nanqian, the middle-aged man who has always had a straight face and looks more terrible than Jin Yingmin, is still very awe-inspiring. Afraid of being smelled by the other party of the smell of wine and barbecue on his body, and even more afraid of being seen by the other party The expression on his face, he bent down and avoided the big leader of the company while greeting him from a long distance.
This time, director Jeon Ki-sang proposed the audition, and the agent brother of SHINee reported to the deputy director of the planning department who arranged the artist's itinerary, right? This person and Kim Young-min made the decision not to let themselves go to the audition, right? Why did they treat themselves like this?
It's just an opportunity to audition, and even if you go, you won't necessarily be selected, so why doesn't the company even give you such an opportunity? Does the company's top management have such a big opinion about herself? The little mistake he made didn't have any bad consequences at all: there was no scandal with Park Chulong, nor did it have a bad impact on the group, why did the company be so ruthless to him?
It's really ironic, obviously I wrote such an inspirational OST for this TV series, but in the end, I couldn't even get the opportunity to audition proposed by the director himself: it's just that I "incidentally" brought an Apink in the interview, isn't the company too much? I have been in S.M. for so many years, is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Under the trend of alcohol, thoughts that he usually didn't think about suddenly came to mind, which made Wang Nanqian, who was lying on the studio table, instantly chill in his back, he subconsciously looked back, and was relieved when he saw that there was no one or anything else in the room except for the white walls and the posters of TVXQ and SJ's seniors pasted on it - he was now like a frightened bird, although he was not like when he was a trainee because he "made a mistake" was scolded and even corporal punishment by the company's managers, but the company's cold soft treatment made Wang Nanqian feel even greater pressure - watching other members carry out all kinds of propaganda overseas and constantly appear in public, while she couldn't even get any resources and opportunities, this contrast is simply devastating.
As if there was something in the dark that could read through his thoughts, just as he was settling down, the door of the studio was knocked heavily from the outside: Wang Nanqian was so frightened that she almost jumped up from her chair.
"Please...... Come in. "I wouldn't just say what I thought in my heart because I was drunk, right? This shouldn't be possible, right?" Wang Nanqian calmed down and responded to the person outside the door in a voice that sounded a little weird.
"It's all because of you, I was taking a shower, and I had to run back to the office before I even dried my hair, Hey. Why don't you stay in the dormitory in the middle of the night, what are you doing hiding in the company? You still have to be seen by that kind of person, it's really ......" The figure of Assistant Kim, who had not been seen for a few days, appeared at the door of this small studio: this person was originally the life assistant of EXO-M, but he was forced to remove this "responsibility" because he was jointly accused by Lin Hyunjun and Lee Seung-hwan. This time, like himself and Bian Boxian, he failed to follow EXO to overseas for promotional activities, and returned to the company's artist management department to re-become his small staff.
Not in the mood to listen to this person's rambling nagging after closing the door, Wang Nanqian bluntly interrupted Assistant Jin's nonsense: "Assistant Jin, how do you know that I am in the company?
"Oh, I'm not your assistant anymore, why do you still call me assistant. "How do you think this guy didn't have any sad and distressed expression when he said this, but instead crooked his mouth and gave himself a big smile, is this person missing a root in his head?
"I'm used to calling it that, and it's easy to say...... No, you haven't answered my question yet?" was almost distorted by Assistant Jin, Wang Nanqian tried to cheer up her consciousness that was a little confused by the alcohol attack, and brought the content back to the topic.
"Isn't it all because of you? Just now, the section chief called me and said that the deputy director of the planning department had contacted him and asked me to take charge of your itinerary for the next few days. Anyway, I just met you at the company, so I asked me to go to the planning department and bring you the script immediately. Hey, you must read it well before tomorrow?" Looking at Assistant Jin's face that couldn't even close his mouth with a smile, he subconsciously took a stack of A4 paper that had been bound by staples from the other party's hand, which was not too thick but not very thin: Wang Nanqian didn't react for a while What happened: the script, the itinerary, the itinerary for the next two days, when did he have the itinerary?
"What are you doing here? "In the EXO-M team, Assistant Jin's favorite member is the captain of EXO-M in front of him, Lu Han is too happy and a headache for the managers, and Wu Yifan once lost his temper with him because of a trivial matter. After putting on the shelf, the other three members of the remaining members either talk little or don't like to talk to him, only this oldest member has a good relationship with him: after all, he has been an assistant to EXO-M for such a long time, and Assistant Jin is naturally very aware of the company's decision to hide this child, and now the deputy director of the planning department is suddenly willing to give him a little opportunity to work, and Assistant Jin is more anxious than the child himself who is still in a daze in front of him," I'll call the director early tomorrow morning to contact the audition, time is pressing, why don't you hurry up and read the script?
Audition?director?
Wang Nanqian was completely stunned by Assistant Jin's machine-gun-like words, didn't the company just decide not to let him audition? Why did it suddenly have an audition and a script? What the hell is going on? His somewhat intractable brain, which was paralyzed by alcohol, really couldn't sort out this sudden surprise, and he didn't care about looking at the stack of things in his hand, and he asked in a voice that was almost as fast as Assistant Jin: "Wait a minute, didn't the president send me a message to let me audition?" Wasn't I still in the freeze period? Why was I suddenly allowed to audition again? Wasn't there any misunderstanding? There weren't any communication problems between the people in the planning department and the president, did they?"
What kind of president said that he was not allowed to go to the audition? What misunderstanding? This kid faintly smelled of barbecue and alcohol, and he just went to drink, right? Is he confused in his brain and talking in his sleep?
"What are you talking about, are you drunk?"
"Assistant Jin, I accompanied SHINee's senior Minhao today to participate in the preparation meeting for the TV series 'To the Beautiful You', do you know about it?" felt that there was really no way to communicate with this inexplicable person, Wang Nanqian had to start from scratch to straighten out his thoughts.
"I don't know. ”
"Then do you know that the full director of this TV series invited me to audition?"
"I don't know. ”
"Then do you know that President Kim personally gave instructions and disagreed with me going to audition?"
"I don't know. ”
"And what the hell do you know?" Why doesn't this guy know anything? So what the hell is he doing here now? What is this stack of things that are said to be scripts? Assistant Kim has drunk too much, right?
"I knew that the section chief asked me to contact the crew of this TV series to arrange for you to audition, and I also knew that this TV series that the company couldn't watch at all, and the script was about to rot in the planning department this month was not 'To the beautiful you' at all, and I knew that even if this drama was hopelessly bad, you don't have the right to choose a job now!" How did this always steady child become like Wu Yifan? Why did he suddenly speak to himself in such a strong tone? Even if he is not EXO-M's assistant now, he is also an employee of S.M. after all, and Assistant Kim, who was stimulated by Wang Nanqian's fierce tone and hoped to maintain enough respect in front of the artist, also roared at the person in front of him.
The company can't look at it at all? The script is about to rot in the planning department? Isn't it "to the beautiful you"? Although he was a little drunk by Assistant Jin's roar, Wang Nanqian felt that the whole thing was even more incomprehensible: "Brother, I didn't mean to yell at you, I'm really embarrassed." But I really don't know what you're talking about, what the hell is going on?"
"I don't know the specific situation, when the section chief called me, he told me that the deputy director of the planning department decided to arrange for you to audition for the crew of this show," Seeing this kid sincerely bowing his head and apologizing to himself, the anger in the heart of Assistant Jin, who was already very sympathetic to his situation and felt a little sympathetic, naturally dissipated," This script was sent to the company in early June, and I don't know if it's too late to contact the family now, but if you want me to say, your current situation is so bad, as long as it is a job opportunity, you should strive to grasp it. ”
What is this called? A script that the company can't look at at all, a script that has dragged on for a month, and a script that people don't even know if they don't provide audition opportunities, is this called giving themselves a chance? Wang Nanqian fully understands the company's intention of giving a sweet jujube with a stick, but this is also called a sweet jujube? This jujube is so rotten that only the core remains, okay?
Is it afraid that you will have a falling out? This is more like the company's behavior in order to give a reasonable explanation to the director?—— "I'm really sorry, our NAN is preparing for another show, I can't pull away, I'm really embarrassed" This explanation is really reasonable, and it's impeccable to think about.
"I know what you're thinking, you must be thinking, this kind of TV series that the company doesn't want its own artists to go to at all, and it's been delaying for almost a month to contact the audition, isn't this deliberately manipulating you?" Assistant Jin obviously felt the psychological activity of the child who sat on the chair and suddenly became depressed, he took two steps and patted the other party's shoulder vigorously, "But this is an opportunity after all? You are a foreign artist, and it is not easy for the company to allow you to audition." Don't worry, I will desperately ask the director to give you a chance to audition tomorrow, so you must work hard with me, read the script well, prepare well, and even if you can't choose in the end, you must not give up in advance. ”
Can't give up in advance? Assistant Jin's words went directly into the deepest part of Wang Nanqian's heart, he has been working hard in South Korea for all these years as a trainee, isn't it because he doesn't want to give up, isn't he willing to give up the dream of debuting as an artist?
With a long exhalation of the sullen breath that had been hidden in his chest for a long time, Wang Nanqian lowered his head and was ready to take a look at this script that had been rotten in the planning department for a month, but when he saw the eye-catching line of Korean on the first page, the love he had just brewed collapsed in an instant: "Brother, do you see what is written on it?"
"Ahh ”
"Then I'll tell you, the first page above clearly says, 'The theme of this drama is set in Busan, so I sincerely invite Sulli to play the female lead in this drama'. Sulli's predecessor was born in Busan, so they sent this script to the company, right? People are looking for the female number one, what kind of fun am I going to join in with a man?"How did I offend those high-level executives of the company? They really gave themselves a "chance" to audition, but this sweet jujube even rotted with the core!
Assistant Jin snatched the script from the almost wailing boy's hand and carefully flipped through the first two pages several times: after he finally removed the script from his eyes, Wang Nanqian saw a smile on his face that was a little uglier than crying.
"Isn't it written that the main actors are all to be determined? Anyway, you read the script carefully first, and wait for me tomorrow...... No, wait for my news!"
