Chapter 151: A Destined Visit (Part I)

Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon publicly knelt down in front of the camera to apologize, claiming that he would be responsible for the miscarriage of the free lunch referendum...... Mayor Oh Se-hoon said that he will immediately resign as mayor of Seoul and hold a new Seoul mayoral election, and he himself will serve as caretaker mayor until a new mayor is elected......"

Hearing this, Jin Zhongming raised his hand boredly and turned off the wall-mounted TV in the office: "People nowadays are really, what age are they, they still kneel at every turn, and they have to kneel even if they get mixed up with the mayor of Seoul, and do they have the dignity to be a human being......"

"Hey......" The slightly chubby middle-aged man sitting opposite Jin Zhongming replied embarrassedly, he really didn't know how to answer this. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Definitely. Another chubby young man agreed with Mr. Kim's ideas. "Just take responsibility and step down, why kneel? To be a human being is always to have something beyond intelligence and fame and fortune. ”

"Joong-ki is not wrong at all. Jin Zhongming smiled and nodded. However, as the so-called cangli knows etiquette, food and clothing know honor and disgrace, in fact, even in modern society, the vast majority of people at the bottom have to bend their knees for a little food. And these politicians, who obviously have transcendent material comforts, also have to kneel for show...... In this world, how difficult is it to maintain the basic dignity of being a human being?"

That's right, Kim Jong-ming is not casually perfunctory to the group of reporters, in fact, someone really wants to visit him in the company in the afternoon, and the person who came is not a cat or a dog, but two people he has to give face to personally entertain - one is Song Joong Ki, the other is Song Joong Ki's current agency boss, his leader on the actor's road Cha Tae-hyun. It is said that Cha Tae-hyun took advantage of the turmoil of the original contract modification to jump out of Sidushq directly, and then set up a company by himself, and Song Joong Ki has reached the seven-year period this year, so he immediately went to Cha Tae-hyun to partner...... The relationship between the two should be better than imagined.

But anyway, no matter how good the relationship between the two is, but this time they came together to visit Jin Zhongming, especially when they made an appointment in the office, it should not be a private matter...... Therefore, it is certainly no problem to define the relationship between the two people in front of you as a boss and a subordinate for the time being.

And at this moment, the boss Cha Tae-hyun, who should be held responsible, obviously feels a little distracted...... On the contrary, as an artist, Song Joong Ki is still calm and calm.

"I think there are still ideals to have...... People, didn't Stephen Chow say in the movie that there is no ideal in being a man, what is the difference between being a man and a salted fish......"

Song Joong Ki was talking, but Kim Jong Myung suddenly remembered a silly little girl, and he didn't know how the other party was doing now, when he would be able to debut, and Han Seung-ho who met FNC another day and asked him?

"That Zhong Ming, do you think that's the truth?" Song Joong Ki suddenly stopped and asked.

"Yes......" Kim Jong-ming replied speciously, in fact, he didn't hear what Song Joong Ki's 'truth' was at all, but it didn't show it on his face at all. "What's that...... Joong Ki, your reason is naturally no problem, everyone has a reason, but you and Brother Taehyun are not outsiders, so let's talk about something directly. ”

Song Joong Ki immediately instinctively glanced at Cha Tae-hyun next to him, and after Cha Tae-hyun nodded, he turned his head back to face Kim Jong-myung, and then said very calmly: "It's such a Jong-myung, I want to concentrate on acting." ”

Jin Zhongming obviously didn't understand at first, so he just nodded nonchalantly: "Acting is acting...... What script do you like, or what?"

"I mean...... I want to concentrate on acting. "Song Joong Ki emphasized the word 'concentration'.

Jin Zhongming was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately understood: "You want to get off from "Runningman"?"

"It's not just Runningman. Cha Tae-hyun immediately writhed uneasily. "Joong Ki wants to give up everything outside of his acting career, including hosting music programs...... And I'm looking for some good scripts for him...... Zhong Ming, you have to understand that not everyone is like you who can operate multiple lines at the same time and is still at ease. ”

"Actually......" Before Kim Jong-ming could speak, Song Joong Ki took the initiative to explain in detail. "I really wanted to learn from Zhong Ming, you bloom more ...... at the beginning."

It turned out that according to Song Joong Ki, he was defined as an idol artist by Sidushq because of his appearance at the beginning, so he had the identity of a music program host for a long time, and he did not hesitate to face the invitation of "Runningman", whether it was the company or the company...... Because, it's just that Song Joong Ki, who was fat for a while in "Those Years", really has an idol temperament.

But, so since the beginning of this year, compared with the two friends around him who have different routes, Song Joong Ki has been a little unable to sit still.

These two friends are none other than Liu Yaren and Jang Geun Suk, who became acquainted with "Those Years", and they are in stark contrast.

First of all, Jang Keun Suk, after winning the best newcomer in the movie, he completely let go, and almost began to take the idol route across the board, singing, dancing, and TV series without delay, and this year he even ran to the Japanese circle of money, and the album magically came to the top of the public trust list!

However, at the same time, no one can deny the regression of his career as an actor, the TV series is tepid, and it is no longer magical, and the movies are basically nothing.

In stark contrast, it is naturally Liu Yaren.

Yoo Ah-in is obviously from an idol group, but his style of action is completely opposite to Jang Keun Suk, who was born as a child star, basically he doesn't go out of the door, you can't see him except for movies and TV series. This, in fact, belongs to the typical style of Korean actors.

And the result of this is that his popularity is far inferior to Jang Keun Suk, but the achievements of his acting career are getting higher and higher, the TV series "Sungkyunkwan Scandal" in which he played the leading role a few years ago became a big hit, and the movie "Fighting Boy Won Deok" after the year was directly played by the protagonist and won the double harvest of box office and word of mouth, but what does this mean? Very simply, this shows that Liu Yaren has become another young actor in South Korea who can lead the team alone after Kim Jong-ming through a solid step by step.

No one in this group of young people expected to be able to get past Kim Jong Ming, but it was already remarkable to keep up. And Yoo Ah-in and Jang Keun Suk can't easily say who is better, because it's really just an artist's different development route.

However, for Song Joong Ki, everyone has mixed together in the crew of "Those Years", and aside from the route of those two girls, several young men of similar age always have to be compared...... In this case, I can't help but ask myself again and again in my heart which way to go?

"So...... Do you want to learn from Ah-in?" Kim Jong-ming nodded understandingly, everyone has their own ambitions, you can't say that Jang Geun-seok is wrong, let alone that Yoo Ah-in has a problem doing this, it's just a route, Song Joong Ki, as a big living person, has his own ideas and is at the crossroads of his career, what kind of decision he makes is understandable.

He ...... That's probably what it means. Cha Tae-hyun interjected with a dry smile.

"Actually...... It's not that way, or it's not just that. Song Joong Ki couldn't help but shake his head. "For a long time, Ahren and Geun Suk were just a possible route, reminding me to make a decision, but in fact I had not made up my mind to choose a path for a long time...... But this month, what happened to the two same people in our "Those Years" crew finally made me no longer hesitate......"

"Two people, who?" Jin Zhongming was really a little confused, there were only a few people in the crew of "Those Years", who didn't know what happened?

"It's Zhong Ming, and Kwang-so. ”

Song Joong Ki's answer made Kim Jong Ming couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and he ...... with Lee Kwang-so This statement is really interesting, I'm afraid that only Xiao Song will compare himself with the giraffe, right?

"First of all, Zhong Ming, do you know how much your "The Melting Pot" and the two movies of Ahn Sung-gi and Song Kang-ho have repercussions in Korean society?" Song Joong Ki said earnestly. "I don't know if you understand this shock in the center of the whirlpool, but I really feel that my life has been baptized - the whole society is talking about these three movies, the whole entertainment industry is talking about them, the current political news is also talking about them, the case has been retried, the law has been changed because of this, and there is only one vote against the Congress, which fights every day...... Zhong Ming, I think you should be able to understand my envy of you, I was the kind of person who was always proud of myself from elementary school until I graduated from college, sports, study, student union...... Even because of my appearance, I have a fan club, my grades are all excellent, and I am indispensable for any merit awards, and I have always believed that my life will be very meaningful and promising, because I feel that I can do it as long as I want to...... So even though my parents asked me to be admitted to a non-acting university before I could get in touch with the entertainment industry, I never frowned, and I immediately gave up the acting university and repeated my studies for a year to go to Sungkyunkwan because I knew that I would be able to do it. And this time, you and your two seniors clearly showed me what a meaningful acting career is...... I'd love to be like the three of you, and I think I can do it too!"

Kim Jong-myung nodded his head as he listened, while Cha Tae-hyun was dumbfounded, he felt that this conversation was a little out of control.

"I can totally understand your thoughts, and you've been thinking about your life goals when you have come across such a guiding light paradigm...... Although I am a bit of a boast to say this, I am really proud this time!" replied Jin Zhongming. "But what about Brother Kwang-so......? What's wrong?"

"He didn't do much. Song Joong Ki replied with a strange expression. "To be precise, he is very good now, I can see that he is now like a fish in water in variety shows, this is like nature, he will become a real big star because of this show, and I am getting more and more used to "Runningman". Thereupon...... I was a little scared. ”

"I'm afraid...... Afraid that one day I will have a sense of belonging to variety shows like Brother Kwang-so, and then I won't be able to jump out?" Kim Jong-ming understood what Song Joong Ki meant after a little thought, the different paths and current situations of the four young people around him made him feel torn, and the proud nature in his bones finally urged him to move forward in a direction and height that was more recognized by the whole society. This is just like Song Joong Ki himself said, he has always been a person who is proud of himself, and making such a decision is almost inevitable.

It's just that if you just do this, Song Joong Ki has two people who will definitely not be able to get around.

"Zhong Ming, it's good that you can understand. Cha Tae-hyun finally spoke at the right time. "Just doing this, Joong Ki always has two people who can't be avoided...... I think that at the beginning, when "Runningman" first started, Joong Ki was just a small artist who had played a few supporting roles, and he didn't have the current popularity base, so at that time, he asked the program team to invite him, saying that there was no factor in it was self-deception. And now his popularity and recognition in the circle largely come from the addition of the show, which has to be grateful to Liu Zaishi's predecessors for taking care of him for a long time. So, if you can't talk to the two of you in advance, I'm afraid you'll have a knot......"

"There is no knot in the heart. Jin Zhongming shook his head again and again. "However, this matter cannot be ignored on my side......"

Song Joong Ki didn't know why, but Cha Tae-hyun smiled bitterly, he knew that this was the case.

In fact, since a few years ago, that is, after becoming the owner of a brokerage company and having children, Cha Tae-hyun has a new understanding of life, that is, responsibility!

When he was with his wife in the past, because his wife was more capable than himself, he basically didn't worry about his wife's affairs, so he did things with a bit of a game in the world, and even a little cynical.

However, when he really started a company with a few friends who left Sidushq and had children, when Cha Tae-hyun went to do some things again, his mentality was diametrically opposite, because he had to think about his children and the livelihood and stability of dozens of people in the company all the time. Now, because his company is in the form of a studio alliance, it has attracted more and more favor from a large number of artists, and seeing more and more artists in Sidushq come to partner up, the scale of the company has become larger and larger, and he even needs to consider the issue of office politics at this time.

And this is something that Cha Taehyun couldn't think of in the past.

So...... Back to this issue, Cha Tae-hyun at this time will of course understand Kim Jong-myeong, because the other party's company is not only ten times and a hundred times that of his own company, so the things that the other party needs to consider when doing things will definitely be ten times and a hundred times his own. Even, even Cha Tae-hyun himself can find some obvious reasons for Kim Jong-ming, not to mention anything else, CUBE is obviously carrying out a big strategy in variety shows now, not to mention last year's wave of long and short variety shows, now that many short-distance variety shows have stopped, it is obvious that another wave is needed, and TVN has just been established, and it also needs some big moves. In this case, Song Joong Ki wants to get out of the car, Kim Jong Ming may not care personally, but the employees who are engaged in variety shows within CUBE Company, as well as the various program teams of TV stations that cooperate with CUBE Company, are watching him, and he needs to consider the thoughts of these people.

"Is that so?" Song Joong Ki was a little disappointed, but he obviously didn't lose his spirit.

"First of all...... You should go to Brother Shi first. Kim Jong-ming stretched out his thumb and wiped his chin. "The program team has recognized your departure, so I can speak, otherwise it will be disrespectful enough for the program team, which is the first thing I have to consider...... However, it shouldn't be a big problem to think about this, in Brother Shi's style of doing things, Brother Taixian and Brother Zhong Guo's friendship is also there, if they say something, the program team will definitely not have any superfluous ideas. ”

"Actually...... Brother Shi has already nodded, and he asked me to come to you directly. Song Joong Ki breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly added a piece of information.

"It's really his style. Jin Zhongming shook his head, not knowing what to say. "Then there's only one problem...... I also need to think from a business point of view, otherwise I won't be able to explain to the employees who are working the company's variety show strategy. ”

Song Joong Ki fell silent, while Cha Tae-hyun covered his mouth weakly, and the scene seemed to fall into embarrassment.

However, Jin Zhongming seemed to have a plan, and he continued unhurriedly: "Or...... One life for one life, Joong Ki gets out of the car, Brother Taehyun, you get in the car, right?"

Song Joong Ki was thoughtful, and Cha Tae-hyun was dumbfounded.

ps: I still want to apologize to everyone...... Broke his promise and got fat.

However, let's just say a few more words, the reason why this chapter is so difficult is not because of how difficult it is to write, but for two other reasons.

The first one is the development of the plot, at this point, in my rough outline, the original author was scheduled to participate in a variety show, but "Runningman" or "Three Hours and Three Meals" or both participated without making up my mind. And in the past few days, on the one hand, I have heard many people say that they don't like variety shows, and on the other hand, I suddenly reacted, if I stop variety shows, politics, and daily life, and directly push the main line of career and feelings, I can end it quickly...... And this is a big temptation, because I am now in the second year of the doctorate, and the code word is a big torment for me!

So my mentality is out of balance, and I don't know if I want to write it down according to the original plan. However, in the end, the introduction of the variety show was written according to the original plan, hoping that there will be a beginning and an end.

There was also an off-the-field accident, my oldest aunt passed away last night...... It's not sad, after all, I've lived in school since I was in high school, and I've basically had no contact for nearly ten years now, but I was brought up by my grandmother when I was young, and the memory of often going back and forth to the homes of several aunts and grandmothers is still there, and even when I fell asleep in the middle of the night, I really dreamed of her old man's home, and it was impossible to pretend not to care...... I don't know if it has anything to do with this after I got the news last night, I went to Longkong to tear up to 12 o'clock, I think there should be.

Anyway,Obviously disappointed everyone again.,Xiao Ming asked me at 12 o'clock when I was going to update and said in the morning.,There was no word in the morning......

At last...... sighed, what I just thought of, when I was a reader in the past, I was most annoyed by those writers who said in the book that their relatives were sick and whose family members died again, and they always felt that they were talking nonsense, where did there be so many coincidences. But in combination with my own affairs, I now feel that this kind of thing is almost inevitable. Because a book, if the author is willing to be responsible, is likely to continue to be updated for a year or two, and a professional book writer is likely to continue to update several books in a row for several years without interruption, while the birth, old age, sickness and death around a person are inevitable things, which do not appear today and will appear tomorrow, while the author is updating today and will be updating tomorrow.

So...... It can almost be concluded that:

There are no surprises in the face of time. (To be continued.) )
