Chapter 58: The Gambling Contract

"I've already seen the movie Dongmo Village, and to be honest, your performance exceeded my expectations, and now you are a qualified film actor. Ahn Sung-ki flipped the noodles with chopsticks and unexpectedly praised Kim Jong-ming.

"It's okay, in fact, thanks to the teacher you went to help see me off last time, I had a lot less trouble during the shooting. Jin Zhongming's heart rose again with An Shengji's praise.

"Eun-hyuk and Jeong-hyang both told me that you have had an excellent eye since you were a child, what do you think will happen to this Gwangju film?"

"It's definitely no problem, there are no examples of movies that involve politics and reality so far. Kim Jong-ming's answer made An Shengji very relieved.

"That's right, that's what I thought, and the script was so good that I fell in love with it as soon as it was delivered to me. Director Kim Ji-hoon has only made one serious film before, but it has been very successful. This time he devoted himself almost to the film, and he has been preparing the script since the year before. I have a hunch that this movie is likely to be to him what your "Grandma's Home" is to Tingxiang. An Shengji took a glass of soju from Jin Zhongming's hands and took a sip.

Jin Zhongming immediately made up another cup, then sat back and responded with some sadness: "Speaking of that movie, Grandma Jin Yifen passed away last year, and I went to pay my condolences to her, and after she finished filming the movie, she returned to the village alone and continued her previous life until she died." ”

"Then film well, if the living want to let the dead rest in peace, they must live well. An Shengji was silent for a while before saying this, because he thought of some of his old friends, he was also born as a child star, but now that he is in his sixties, many of the people who took care of him like children before have long since disappeared.

"That's what you're saying. Jin Zhongming agreed with the other party's words from the bottom of his heart.

"I'll calculate the time, hey~, it's really hard to calculate. This movie is estimated to start next year, and the release is estimated to wait until 07, Qinglong is still the end of the year, and it is difficult to say that Dazhong and Baeksang will not be able to say. But anyway, I'm going to give you a supporting actor in this movie. Ahn Sung-ki finally talked about drama meat, and the supporting actor he said was naturally not a supporting role, but a Best Supporting Actor in one of the three major Korean film awards. With his prestige and connections, if he says that he will give his students a male partner, he will definitely not run away.

But Jin Zhongming did not thank him, but hesitated. He put down his chopsticks and raised his hand to pour a glass of wine. An Shengji's glass of wine hadn't moved yet, Zhang Enhe thought it was for himself, but when he was about to reach out and take it, he was only 18 years old, and Jin Zhongming, who was actually not an adult, actually raised the wine glass and drank it all, and then he wiped his sauce-colored lips, exhaled, and said seriously in An Shengji's surprised gaze: "Teacher, let's make two bets!"

"You say, as long as it's not too much, I'll agree. Ahn Sung-ki stopped Jang Eun-hyuk, who was about to get up, and agreed straightforwardly.

"I'm grateful for your help, but can you help me bring this guy forward to this year? I mean help me prepare a best new guy this year or something. Kim Jong-ming stretched out his hand to stop Jang Eun-hyuk, who was about to get up, and continued. "If that's the case, by the time this Gwangju film enters the awards, I will already be an actor!"

"This is the first bet?" Okay, I agreed! But if you fail, our teacher-student relationship will be gone! What about the second bet?" Ahn Sung-ki grinned, and the miso of the jajangmyeon stained his teeth, making the entire two rows of teeth black.

"I will definitely be able to get more actors than you in my life! This is not actually a gambling contract, it is a student's promise to the teacher. Jin Zhongming continued to pour himself a glass of soju, and then took a sip, he couldn't figure out whether it was to show his pride or to strengthen his courage.

"Okay!" An Shengji slapped the table, to be honest, An Shengji here couldn't figure out whether he was carried away by a glass of wine, or if he was really calmed by his own students.

However, Jang Eun-hyuk, who had not been stained with a glass of wine, gasped next to him, this is really interesting to the master and apprentice! He really wants to ask Kim Jong-ming, do you kid know how many actors your teacher has? So far, there are 7 Baeksang! 1 Blue Dragon! 1 Da Zhong! Plus 4 in the Korean Drama and Film Art Awards before the Blue Dragon Awards! 2 at the Asia-Pacific Film Festival! A total of 15 actors! This is not counting the 5 popular actors who are called vice actors, what is the 1 best supporting actor, and what is the 4 Korean Film Critics Association that is being established together with the Blue Dragon Award, although it has failed to compete with the Blue Dragon Award, but still has a lot of influence! What are you taking here to slap your chest and say that I want to surpass your number of actors?

And Ahn Sung-ki, Jang Eun-hyuk also wanted to grab his neck and ask, do you know how old your apprentice is? Do you know how long it takes for a newcomer like this to go from best actor to best actor? You can't forget how long it took you, right? Let me tell you, it took you 8 years! Why did you dare to slap the table and agree?

However, Zhang Enhe didn't question the pair of teachers and students after all, he had been pressed into the seat by these two people before, which showed that they didn't want to intervene themselves, even if they were very familiar with these two people, at this time, they had to consider the consequences that if they interjected, they would not be human inside and out.

"Is the teacher going back to Seoul?" After a few more gossip, Jin Zhongming saw that Ahn Sung-ki had finished eating, so he opened his mouth to ask.

"No, I have an old friend from Gwangju who will pick me up later. I'm a little drunk, Eunhyuk you have to stay and take care of me. Also, Zhong Ming, you kid shouldn't delay the drive after drinking two glasses of soju, right?" An Shengji asked slightly drunkenly.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen, in fact, I drink a lot. Jin Zhongming smiled slightly, in fact, he had already secretly drunk soju, 20 degrees of soju, two drinks are actually no problem, of course, drinking a bottle will have stamina.

"That's good, this movie won't start until next spring, and your roles are very scattered, and if you have your role, Eunhyuk will call you and call you, so you won't be busy with other things. With that, An Shengji narrowed his eyes and stared at his student tightly. "Remember what you said today! Okay, let's drive away before it's dark!"

"Okay, don't worry!" Kim Jong-ming made a pun, making it unclear whether he was reassuring An Shengji of his safety, or whether he was saying that he would not forget the gambling contract.
