Chapter 54: The Dinner
On the evening of July 29. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the banquet hall of the Millennium Hilton Hotel on Nandaemun Road, where the crew members of "Tai Chi Flag" had a dinner, and everyone arrived, including Jin Zaizhong, who should not have appeared on this occasion, and was also brought in by Xu Canhao.
"Hyong, I'm hiding from smoking again." Xu Canhao found Zhang Dongjian, who was hiding in the corner of the terrace to solve his addiction, put one hand on his shoulder, and said with a smile in front of him.
"Oh, here you are. Got one? Although Zhang Dongjian knows that smoking is not good, he has become addicted to smoking, and Xu Canhao often avoids others in the crew to smoke two.
Xu Canhao took the seven stars handed over, held them in his mouth, Zhang Dongjian lit a fire for him, and took a deep breath. "How many throats and fruits do I need to protect my throat for a cigarette." He pouted and spat out a smoke ring, as if complaining, sighing.
"Do you want to say these obvious things every time you smoke to make people feel good?! Just don't smoke it, quit! Zhang Dongjian said as he was about to snatch the cigarette from Xu Canhao's mouth.
"Can you quit smoking after almost 30 years?" Xu Canhao muttered in a voice that he could only hear, grabbed Zhang Dongjian's outstretched hand and pushed him away.
"Ha~ let me catch it again! Brother Dongjian, why did you take him to smoke again, really! Son Ye-jin walked out at some point, frowning and complaining about Jang Dongjian. Bring! Son Ye-jin turned her head with a straight face, and spread her hands in front of Seo Chan-ho.
"Well, I didn't, my brother gave it to me, I really didn't!" Xu Canhao slapped all over his pockets to prove that he had no smoke or fire.
"Lost!" Son Ye-jin scolded in a low voice. Xu Canhao was helpless, turned his back and took a deep breath, before throwing the cigarette that he hadn't smoked two puffs on the ground and crushing it with his foot. "You're not an adult, so you like to smoke so much..."Seeing that Son Ye-jin was about to discipline him again, Xu Canhao hurriedly interrupted.
"Sister, I'm an adult in the United States, and I don't smoke much." Xu Canhao explained again with a headache, he has explained several times with this set of rhetoric, and it is really difficult to convince friends who are good for him. Son Ye-jin, who is usually gentle and quiet, is particularly persistent in this matter, when she was still in the crew, she often stared at Xu Canhao, and she would follow him when she saw him acting sneaky. Her behavior made Xu Canhao angry and helpless, feeling like a superintendent who specializes in catching bad students.
"You—" Son Ye-jin was interrupted again as soon as she spoke.
"Chan Hao obba, everyone is waiting for you to say a toast and sing!" Zhu Duoying jumped out and shouted at the three of them, seeing Son Ye-jin with a straight face, the atmosphere was a little weird, and he looked at the "gentle uncle" Zhang Dongjian for help for a while.
"Ahem~ I went in first, it's not polite to make people wait. Chan Hao, hurry up and get in. Zhang Dongjian said as he walked over and pulled Xiao Duoying away.
'Damn, can you stop saying such ambiguous words, what to solve!' Xu Canhao complained loudly to Zhang Dongjian in his heart. Immediately, he asked Son Ye-jin: "Sister Yi-jin, do you see?" ”
"Hmph~" Son Ye-jin was interrupted twice, and she was suffocated, so she shook her head and walked into the hall alone, leaving Seo Chan-ho who wanted to laugh while touching his nose. After shaking off his clothes and sending away the smoke on his body, Xu Canhao walked into the hall. Laughing and talking with everyone along the way, I walked to the small stage with three stops.
"In LastFriday, will it?" Xu Canhao held champagne in one hand and grabbed his neck from behind Kim Jae-nak, who was half a head taller than him, with the other. Kim Jae-jung looked back at him and was stunned, then replied, "Well, yes." ”
"Remove that word. Ah, I didn't bring you here for you to eat. Xu Canhao looked speechlessly at the plate he was holding in his hand, and there were all kinds of snacks piled up in it. You also take the initiative to talk to others about how you can be like Eric, a puddle of warm water. Xu Canhao picked a piece of apricot blossom cake and chewed it in his mouth, and said to Kim Jae-jung. Inadvertently spotting a small corner of a plastic bag peeking out of the pocket of his suit's lining, he pretended to talk as he touched it with his elbow. "For my sister, or for my sister?" Xu Canhao lowered his head and chose the food and said casually.
Kim Jae-joong found that he couldn't keep up with his rhythm a little anymore, and was stunned again. Seeing Xu Canhao pointing to his clothes pocket with his eyes, he felt embarrassed. Reaching out and stuffing the plastic bag inside, he pulled his shirt tightly before saying, "I brought it to a few friends in the dormitory." He seems to be casual, but he is actually in a very complicated mood, for fear that it will affect his image in Xu Canhao's eyes. I tried to suppress the apprehension and nervousness in my heart, and pretended to look calmly at the president, seniors, and stars who were working hard.
"Hehe, I do this a lot abroad. Wait a minute, I'll ask the waiter to pack some more, and you can bring some back, and I'll take some too. Xu Canhao lied, took Kim Jae-jung and walked towards Jiang Dikui's circle.
"Hey, Great Director!" Xu Canhao looked like a hanger, touched the goblet in Jiang Dikui's hand with the cup, and drank it all by himself.
"Oh, Chan-ho, you're here. Come, I'll introduce you, Bong Joon-ho. The director of "Memories of Murder" (just released in early May), get to know it. Jiang Dikui smiled and pulled Xu Canhao and pushed him to the middle-aged man with glasses.
"Haha, I've finally met the real person of the national idol! Hello, I'm Bong Joon-ho, I'm so happy to see you here! Director Bong warmly shook Xu Canhao's hand, and a smile bloomed on his face.
Xu Canhao looked at him, and while responding, he looked at the tall and famous director. In his previous life, a "Monster of the Han River" aroused Xu Canhao's curiosity about him, and after watching "Mother" and "Memories of Murder" directed by him, he still has some images of Bong Joon-ho.
"Jun Hao is a good person, and it's okay to be a director, you two can interact more." Jiang Dikui said to Xu Canhao.
"Alas, senior, am I just okay in your eyes? Oh woo Xi, I'm so disappointed~" Director Feng looked very disappointed, bowed his head and shook his head.
"Hehe, I think Director Feng's movie is pretty good. I've also seen it recently released.,The use of mirrors and techniques have their own style.,It's really remarkable to be able to shoot such a book that originally didn't have a plot of ups and downs.,It's really remarkable.,There's also a warning to the world.。 Of course, the credit of the screenwriter and Song Kanghao's predecessors is indispensable, and his acting skills make me admire, especially the style that came at the last glance, tsk~" Xu Canhao said that in the end, he couldn't help but learn what he looked like in the movie, turned his head to look at Bong Joon-ho, and his face and eyes revealed complex expressions such as shock and confusion. "Hehe, it's still not good, in fact, I have studied this paragraph in private." Seo Chan-ho smiled and waved his hand, nodding apologetically to Bong Joon-ho.
"Well, it's amazing, it's a bit of a god." Bong Joon-ho clapped his hands twice and said.
"Ahh At this time, the sound of audition sounded in the loudspeaker in the hall, and everyone looked at the small stage together. "Where did our big star producer, Mr. Xu Canhao, go, is he shy and hiding? Still don't want to pay?! Kong Jiongzhen solemnly glanced at the smiling crowd in the audience, searching for Xu Canhao's figure in the crowd. The people around Xu Canhao betrayed him with their eyes, and Kong easily discovered him. "Aha~ It's finally here, it's you, that kid who likes to be funny, don't hide anymore!" Kong Jiongzhen, who was on the stage, pointed to Xu Canhao, who shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be innocent, and shouted loudly. "Hurry up and get on stage! Because before you opened, everyone didn't get into the celebratory atmosphere, so I couldn't drink the soju, so you just waited to get drunk with me, boy! The people in the audience began to laugh and shout Xu Canhao's name rhythmically. Because there were no outsiders present, let alone annoying media, only the crew members who became particularly close because of Xu Canhao. Here, everyone put down the dignity in front of people, and joked unscrupulously after putting aside their identity.
Xu Canhao quickly ran to the stage and covered Kong Jiongzhen's mouth, twisted him off the stage, and didn't forget to threaten him a few words. The people in the audience watched the two of them fighting, and suddenly there was a burst of laughter, and there were good deeds cheering for the two of them. "Ahem, please be quiet, everyone, your debtor is talking." Xu Canhao leaned in front of the erected microphone and opened his mouth for everyone to stop. "I think everyone can't wait like Brother Kong, so I won't say more, just let the box office of more than 10 million in the future repay everyone's achievements! Thank you for your continued support, thank you all for your continued support! Xu Canhao bowed deeply after speaking.
Everyone was shocked by the tens of millions he reported, and they did not forget to applaud hard. affirmed Xu Canhao's efforts and ability all the time, and at the same time cheered for himself, hoping that the box office could really be as he said, becoming the second film in the history of Korean film to exceed 10 million box office. (More than 10 million, which proves that a quarter of the people in South Korea have seen this film in theaters) In this way, everyone is fortunate to be recorded in film history, and it also adds a strong stroke to their resume.
Xu Canhao raised his head, looked at the people in the audience who were holding wine glasses and pointed at him, smiled and nodded to them, took the champagne handed by the waiter, and saluted them one by one.
After Xu Canhao drank all the wine in the cup, he quickly picked up the microphone and shouted in a DJ tone: "Let'sparty~~" Instantly, the original bright lights in the hall dimmed and turned into colored spotlights. The band that had been waiting on the small stage began the prelude to "It'sMy Life". Xu Canhao used his high-performance voice and hoarse tone to arouse the vitality factor hidden in people's bodies, and the men and women in the hall gradually gathered in front of the small stage and danced with the music. Xu Canhao's face flushed with excitement, holding the microphone tightly in his hand, jumping and screaming, pulling Kim Jae-joong in front of the stage onto the stage, and signaling him to come with his eyes and gestures. Without waiting for a song to be sung, Xu Canhao cut directly from the high/tide part of "LastFridaynight", jumped off the stage at the same time, pulled Xiao Duoying with one hand, and the two began to dance.
"Hehe, your group is really energetic, and it is enviable to play." Bong Joon-ho leaned into Director Jiang's ear and said loudly.
Jiang Dikui looked at Xu Canhao, who was crazy in the crowd, the smile on his face never stopped, and his body involuntarily shook slightly, and when he heard this, his smile became even bigger. "Our crew's baby, how's it going!?" Perhaps it was imperceptibly infected by Xu Canhao, Director Jiang's obvious tsundere outburst, and the gorgeous landmine reached the director of the Feng department.
Bong Jun-ho looked at Kang Di-kyu shaking his head with a strange expression, as if he wanted to reacquaint himself with this stereotypical senior. After a while, he said goodbye to Jiang and left, and there was also a large group of people waiting for him upstairs.
The whole banquet, including the singing and dancing party and the drinking party, lasted until 2 o'clock in the morning, and everyone left in Director Jiang's closing remarks and prayers.
Son Ye-jin and her strange agent (female) are both drunk, hugging each other and singing loudly in the parking lot. With the help of Zhang Dongjian and several other actors, the two were half-coaxed and half-forcedly stuffed into Xu Canhao's car (because his ram was big enough). Xu Canhao said goodbye to everyone one by one, and then he opened the car door hard, and saw that the two were still in the car, pouting, then closed the car door again and sat in the co-pilot's seat.
In less than a moment, affected by the heating in the car, Xu Canhao was a little dizzy, he drank a lot of wine, looked at the two women who were still in a state of madness behind the car, and shook his head.
"Dalukawa (Come here), you kid!" Seo Chan-ho, who was burying his head in his head, was slapped on the chin by Son Ye-jin indiscriminately, which immediately woke him up most of the time. A little annoyed, he stared at Son Ye-jin, who was crooked next to his seat and no longer had the image of a lady.
"Ah, boy! My sister called you! Sing a song and let us see the ~hiccup~ strength of the Korean Republic of Korea and a national treasure singer! Son Ye-jin stared in fascination, and her weak hand slapped Seo Chan-ho's body from time to time.
Seo Chan-ho was about to faint from this sister's wine burp, glared at the new driver Lee Dong-wook, who was holding back his laughter, and turned around to pull Son Ye-jin back into the back seat. But I don't want to, this person, where did he get so much strength after being drunk, he actually clasped the seat and refused to move.
"Eh~Son Ye-jin, you really disappointed me, ruined your image!" Xu Canhao complained angrily, and let Son Ye-jin lie on the ground, dancing and making noise. "I must take a picture of you like this, so that you can wake up without shame, and reflect on yourself!" Xu Canhao muttered in his mouth, kept in his hands, took out his mobile phone and took pictures of two drunk and unruly women one after another. I didn't stop shooting, and I took out an oily pen and wanted to draw a beard for Son Ye-jin. However, after thinking about it, I was worried that this thing would not be easy to wash, so I grabbed Son Ye-jin's bag again, turned out her lipstick and eyebrow pencil, and began to paint Son Ye-jin's face with a wicked smile.
When they arrived, Seo Chan-ho and Lee Myung-quan set up one by one and sent the two sleeping drunks back to Son Ye-jin's apartment. Turn on the heater, put it on the bed, cover it directly with the quilt and leave, so as not to let the security guard gossip.
In the early morning of the next day, the beautiful autumn weather is rare, and the dazzling sunlight wakes up the hangover Son Ye-jin. Rubbing his temples with a faint pain, he sat up, looked at the economic man who was still asleep next to him, and kicked down to the ground in a daze, and closed the curtains. Son Ye-jin, who had a dry mouth, staggered to the living room, poured a large glass of water, and drank it all. Immediately, he sat on the sofa in a daze, thinking about the events of last night. After a while, seeing his own image on the TV screen, his eyes widened, and he quickly got up and ran into the bathroom.
"Ah~~!" A noise comparable to that of an airplane taking off, a scream of the same decibel woke up the economic man in bed. "Xu Canhao! Nuo, you're dead! Son Ye-jin stared at the mirror with a hideous face and cursed someone viciously.
"Ah Che~" A certain perpetrator was still immersed in sleep at the moment, sneezed, turned over, and continued to sleep beautifully with the quilt in his arms.
