Chapter 48: Press Conference
MBC TV news center, a large number of reporters gathered here early in the morning, because this is the press conference for the start of filming of the new drama "Beethoven Virus" of MBC's water and wood drama, and the media is still very face-saving. There are still a lot of topics in this drama, first of all, this is Lee Jae-kui's ambitious return after a few years, and the screenwriters are still the current popular Hong sisters. Maybe you don't care about the face of Lee Jae-kui and the Hong sisters, but MBC, as one of the three major TV stations, still has to give face. Another point is that last night, the popular student Jang Keun Suk updated a paragraph on his Twitter (I don't know if it was popular in Korea at that time, so I think it was already popular), which made the media reporters as excited as if they had taken a hormone.
"Some TV series have been operated in the dark to such an extent, alas, the trumpet has been practiced in vain."
As soon as this tweet came out, it immediately detonated the Internet, originally "black box operation" was a more sensitive word, but now it is still a tweet sent by Jang Geun Suk, which has been highly valued and amazingly forwarded by online games. Although it didn't take long for Jang Geun Suk to delete his Twitter, many people still saw it, so various discussions began on the Internet. And netizens are invincible, and soon figured things out, knowing that MBC's Shuimu drama called "Beethoven Virus" was the second male lead created with Jang Keun Suk as the template, but in the end, Jang Keun Suk was brushed off in the audition, and the controversial Liu Xinyu was asked to play this role. Liu Xinyu still has a lot of anti, he is still a pure newcomer, and he has no acting experience at all, which makes many netizens shout "shady". And Jang Geun Suk's fans are even more angry with Liu Xinyu, which makes Liu Xinyu a lot more anti. However, Liu Xinyu and TheHousesCompany did not react to this, first, Liu Xinyu has tried millions of anti, and tens of thousands of anti are nothing at all. Second, this matter involves MBC, and they will take care of it. Moreover, this can be regarded as a promotion of the TV series, so Park Hye-yeon felt that she should ignore it after communicating with Yoon Eun-hye and Yoo Xin-woo.
However, no matter what the situation is, the media attaches great importance to this matter, so early this morning, many media reporters rushed to the press conference of "Beethoven Virus", so that the scale of the scene is not like an ordinary TV series press conference at all.
Liu Xinyu also arrived at the scene of the press conference half an hour in advance, and this time the press conference was attended by the male No. 1 Kim Jung-myung, the female No. 1 Li Zhiya, the male No. 2 Liu Xinyu, the director Lee Jae-kui, the screenwriter Hong sisters, representatives of MBC TV, and representatives of the production company. Originally, it was planned that the director would bring the three main actors to participate, but because of Jang Keun Suk's tweet last night, the TV station and the production company had to be cautious, and even the screenwriter Hong sisters also needed to attend this press conference.
Liu Xinyu arrived at the lounge, but no one had arrived yet, but not long after Liu Xinyu sat down, the door of the lounge was pushed open, and Kim Zhengming walked in.
"Brother Zhengming, are you here too?" Liu Xinyu got up with a smile and greeted, the two have a lot of rivalry scenes, and the script practice during this period of time has made both of them familiar with it, and Liu Xinyu also called his brother directly at the request of Jin Zhengming.
"Oh, Xin Yu is still so early. What do you think? Jin Zhengming asked with a smile, Jin Zhengming is still relatively optimistic about Liu Xinyu, a newcomer, talented, willing to endure hardships, and modest and polite.
Hearing Kim Jong-myung's words, Liu Xinyu also knew that he was asking about Jang Geun Suk's Twitter incident, and it was impossible for him not to know about this matter, as the male lead in "Beethoven Virus". Hearing Jin Zhengming's words, Liu Xinyu said with a faint smile: "It's okay, I think this is also a kind of spur motivation for me." I'm going to try and hopefully get them to change their minds. ”
"Well, yes, I'm optimistic about you." Jin Zhengming said with a smile that he still agreed with Liu Xinyu's words and felt that Liu Xinyu was still capable of playing this role well.
"Thank you, Brother Zhengming." Liu Xinyu smiled and thanked him.
Then the two didn't say much on this topic, and talked about some things in the script, and now the script has been written to the 6th episode, and there will be a small ** in the 5th episode, which is also a report performance of the orchestra. The two were discussing this plot, in fact, in this plot, Liu Xinyu didn't have much to do, because he was reinstated that day, although he rushed over later, it was just a few simple shots. And in this scene of the report performance, it is more of Kim Jong-myung's performance, and the scene is quite large, which is not easy to control. Jin Zhengming will not treat him as a newcomer through this period of time with Liu Xinyu, many of Liu Xinyu's ideas can give him some inspiration, so many times, he is discussing with Liu Xinyu and sharing with each other.
The two didn't talk for long before Li Zhiya arrived, smiled and said hello to the two, she and the two were familiar, and the staff also informed them that they could enter the venue. Liu Xinyu followed Li Zhiya and Kim Zhengming into the venue, and as soon as the three appeared, the flash began to flash, and on the other side, the director and two representatives also entered the venue, and sat down under the guidance of the staff, and Liu Xinyu sat on the edge.
First of all, the MC introduced the general situation of "Beethoven Virus", "Beethoven Virus" focuses on classical music, and a lot of classical music will be used in the gathering. After the MC introduction, Lee Jae-kyu spoke, and Director Lee thanked all the reporters for their presence and MBC TV for their trust, and said that he would definitely work hard to make a good TV series. However, reporters don't care much about what director Lee Jae-kyu, including MC, said, and they don't know how many times they have heard these official statements. They want breaking news, explosive topics, news that will attract audiences. However, the reporters still estimated the face of MBC TV and patiently listened to the speeches of the two.
"Alright, now it's time for questions from reporters." In the anxious waiting of the reporters, it was finally time for them to expect, and the MC's words also made the reporters excited. That's why the reporters are here, they need to dig out the news they want, after all, last night, a tweet by Jang Keun Suk made the public pay a lot more attention to this drama that has not yet started, and this is the topic they need, this is their news.
