Chapter 43: Am I Really a Big Star?
The live broadcast on the night of July 30 was very successful, and the show Infinite Challenge also entered the ranks of successful variety shows because of the success of the special feature of the Infinite Song Festival. But this has nothing to do with Kim Jong-ming. He painfully but resolutely refused Kim Tae-ho and Yoo Jae-seok's retention at the dinner center on the night of the song festival, and returned to the life of a college student who spent the summer vacation.
Of course, this so-called summer vacation life is only in name, and only four days later, he has to reappear in the spotlight as an artist. On the evening of August 4, the movie "Welcome to Dongmo Village" was officially released. As one of the six leading actors, Kim Jong-myung has no reason to miss the premiere in the evening, not to mention that he has enough expectations for this movie.
Seriously, about the premiere, Kim Jong Ming is no longer the first brother. But it wasn't until now that he had some idea of what it was. First of all, not all movies are eligible for premieres, and 7% of Hollywood's movies have never been held, but this is South Korea, as long as it is not a 19-banned movie, the organizers can give you some tricks. Secondly, compared with the Hollywood premiere, which opens with hundreds of theaters together, the premiere of Korean movies is generally a VIP theater, and the media stuffed with red envelopes is asked to sell theater membership tickets at the door by the way. The last point of the Korean film premiere is different from other countries in that other countries will decide the film scheduling rate after the film according to the audience evaluation and attendance rate on the day of the premiere, but the scheduling rate of Korean films is negotiated early by the distribution company and the theater chain.
So all in all, the Korean movie premiere is simply a show.
When Kim Jong-myung received a call from Park Kwang-hyun, he was taking a nap. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he had to go to the premiere in an hour and a half, but now he didn't have makeup!
There was no time to think about it, Jin Zhongming changed into a decent outfit and went straight to the subway station. There was no way, he was going to go to the beauty salon that gave him a membership card first, and then go to the CGV Riverside Cinema in Jiuyidong, Guangjin District. At this time, if you drive, it will be troublesome in case of congestion, but it is much easier to take the subway in the afternoon.
But as soon as he got on the subway, Kim Jong Ming noticed that something was wrong. He noticed that many people around him seemed to be staring at him, and some were even whispering.
Is there anything wrong with his face? Jin Zhongming immediately took out his mobile phone and looked sideways at his face, there was nothing. But soon his doubts were cleared, and a woman who looked to be in her twenties came up to him and accosted him: "You are Mr. Kim Jong Ming from the Song Festival a few days ago, right? Can you sign me? I like your song very much." ”
Sending away the girl who wanted to sign an autograph, Kim Jong-ming suddenly realized that it was the great success of the song festival that made him gain unimaginable popularity.
"Zhong Ming oppa, are you really a student at Seoul National University? You are so handsome today, are you wearing no makeup?" Before Jin Zhongming could come back to his senses, two people who looked like female middle school students immediately followed.
"Thank you both for your support, yes, I'm a current student at Seoul University. "I've never eaten pork and I've seen pigs run, Jin Zhongming immediately relieved himself and said good words to these two girls.
"Is it true that Zhong Ming's oppa is not permanent in the infinite challenge as it says on TV? I think the show would not be good without your participation. A chubby girl with glasses immediately asked seriously, and it could be seen that she really liked the song festival.
"How is that possible? Brother Shi is the soul of this show, and I am also assisting him when I go to the song festival. As long as that brother is here, this show will definitely be good-looking. I also hope that you will support this show in the future. Kim Jong-ming hurriedly denied her claim. What kind of joke are you kidding? If this is going to get out, he won't be confused! Don't look at the show where he bullied Park Myung-so and bullied him so coolly, and he confronted Yoo Jae-seok so reasonably, it was all in front of the camera! As soon as the camera turned off, he had to immediately bow to Park Myung-so and apologize, even if he had known Yoo Jae-seok for so many years, he would not really choke the other party so much.
"It's a pity, but I heard that Zhong Ming Oppa is still acting in movies, right?" Another thinner girl seized the opportunity and immediately asked her own question.
"Yes, that's right, I'm going to the premiere of the movie in the evening. The name of the movie is "Welcome to Dongmo Village", which was filmed hard in the first half of the year, and I hope you can pay more attention. After a few words, Jin Zhongming has been able to understand how to talk to fans.
The bus to the beauty salon was fine, only five or six people came to talk. But after putting on makeup, when Kim Jong-ming boarded the subway to Jiuyidong, he ran into quite trouble. In the subway car, there was a whole group of middle school girls and a team of old men and women under the banner of the senior club. So after being called out by an aunt, Jin Zhongming was completely sad.
After arriving at the station, amid the praise of a group of elderly people behind him, Jin Zhongming hurriedly escaped from the carriage. Even so, two other girls actually followed him off the subway.
It seems that even if you are stuck in traffic to death in the future, you will not be able to take the subway. Thinking so, Kim Jong Ming came to the CGV Riverside Cinema. However, he did not enter the theater directly, but went to a venue near the theater to gather with the crew as agreed, where someone would arrange the order and time of the red carpet.
As soon as he entered, he saw a familiar figure in the distance.
"Hey, dear! You're pretty handsome today!" the other party took the lead in greeting him, and he was one of the leading actors in the movie, he recognized his hometown Liu Dehuan in the crew, and he was holding a girl he didn't know and was trying to wave his free arm at him.
"Dehuan, where did you invite this from? I thought the two of us would go together. Jin Zhongming ran over weakly and held the other party's hand.
"Let me introduce you, this is my partner I worked with before, Sister Goo Hye-sun. She is also a descendant of Shin Ha-gyun's predecessor at the same teacher at Seoul National University of the Arts. Liu Dehuan has been in this circle for many years, and he is extremely familiar with the things inside, and he clearly introduces the interests of the person around him in two sentences.
"Hello seniors! I am Dehwan's own deceased Kim Jong-myeong, playing Moon Sang-sang in this movie. When Jin Zhongming heard Liu Dehuan call the other party's sister, he knew that the other party must be older than himself, and the other party was a beauty, so it was always okay to treat him as a senior on this occasion. However, he seems to be a little familiar with the name Gu Hye-sun, but he doesn't know if he heard it there.
"You're welcome, Kim Jong Mingxi. I saw you singing last Saturday and you were really cool. And if you and Dehuan are close to each other, just call me sister. Gu Shanhui didn't dare to let Jin Zhongming be too polite to herself, the other party is now able to crush her own regardless of her education, popularity, and background, why should she put on a score because she is a few years older, not to mention that the other party is a child star, and it is a little embarrassing to really talk about seniority.
"Hey, don't do that. There is a reason why Yoo Deok-hwan was privately made a half-acquainted little man by Kim Jong-myeong, and he quickly interjected to make the atmosphere easy-going. "Zhong Ming, last Saturday was really a big deal! Finally, Liu Zaishi's predecessor also helped us promote the movie. Just now, the director and Shen Hajun's predecessors also said that your publicity alone is worth the publicity of all the rest of us. ”
Yoo Deok-hwan was referring to Yoo Jae-seok's mention of the name of their movie before the concert ended, taking advantage of Kim Jong-myung's departure from the Infinite Challenge. For this matter, he is actually very grateful to Liu Zaishi, but with the relationship between the two of them, there is no need to fix some falsehood.
And now for Yoo Deok-hwan's praise, and in front of Gu Sun-hye, who he just met, it is difficult for Kim Jong-ming to praise or belittle the role of that matter. praised the suspicion of praising himself, and belittled Liu Zaishi. So I had to nod my head and immediately change the subject.
"Dehuan, if you and Sister Gu Shanhui go together, what should I do?
Gu Shanhui covered her mouth and smiled, and Yoo Deok-hwan said provocatively: "What about the beautiful woman who danced together that day, why didn't you bring it? I heard that it's still a sister?"
After standing and laughing with these two people for a while, Kim Jong-myung left, and he hurried to find Park Kwang-hyun. I just told Liu Dehuan that I walked the red carpet alone, it was a joke, but I can't really do that. Those who really walk the red carpet alone are guests, and if the actors in the movie walk alone, they are either particularly big names or isolated.
"Well, that's a problem. Park Kwang-hyun lifted his side face, rubbed his freshly shaved chin, and pondered the question posed by Kim Jong-myung. "Otherwise, you walk the red carpet with Lin Helong's seniors!"
You dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth! Jin Zhongming scolded in his heart, and Lao Tzu knew that this was the result. However, he expressed his opinion very cleanly: "This is not good, Lin Helong's predecessors are big stars, and this movie is just the first movie I have gotten rid of the image of a child star, and the two of us don't match." ”
"Kim Jong Myung Xi, do you think our film will be a success?" Park Kwang-hyun did not answer him directly, but asked him a question.
"Of course!" replied Kim Jong Ming categorically.
"That's good, in this case, add the song festival where you ate fried chicken before, and you'll be a big star in no time. Park Kwang-hyun said with a relaxed face.
"And then?" Kim Jongming was puzzled.
Then the big star Jin Zhongming walked the red carpet with the senior Lin Helong, which was a good match. ”
