Chapter 17: Do You Speak Busan?
Chapter 17: Can You Speak Busan?
After thinking about it for a long time, Zheng Xiuxun didn't come up with any results.
Instead, they have reached their destination today, the headquarters of Cube Corporation.
He was accompanied by Lu Xingcai, who received a notice from the company today that they wanted to go back to the company.
It is estimated that it is also for the next trip.
"Brother Xiuxun, what do you say the company plans to arrange for us?" Lu Xingcai asked curiously.
He was the last to join the team, and when he saw that everyone had an arrangement, he didn't arrange it, and he was quite anxious.
However, after learning that he was arranged with Zheng Xiuxun, he instantly felt that his life was full of surprises.
As far as the BTOB team is concerned, there is no better choice than following Jung so-hoon.
"Didn't you say it, the company will invest in a TV series, and both of us should go to it to be actors," Zheng Xiuxun replied.
"Well, that's why I was called here today."
"Hmm," Jung so-hoon nodded.
The two came to the interior of the company, and there were many trainees in the lobby.
In an instant, the two became the focus and center of the audience.
BTOB is the signature of Cube nowadays, and it directly surpassed Beast to become the company's No. 1 boy group.
At the same time, he is also an idol and role model in the minds of trainees.
The two of them walked inside and greeted the trainees passing by.
Then take the elevator directly to the top floor, Hong Shengcheng's office.
Standing in front of the door, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Come in"
Hearing this, the two pushed open the door and walked in.
only to find out that Song Hongpao and M.K were inside.
"Hello president, Brother M.K, Brother Red Robe" The two greeted respectfully.
"Hehe, come and sit," M.K smiled and beckoned.
"How's it going, it's okay to rest for the past two days, right?" Hong Shengcheng said with a smile.
"Well, it's completely two rhythms from the previous days when I had to catch up with announcements everywhere all day."
"Then seize the opportunity to take a good rest, you don't have much time to rest, and the company still has to test you to make money."
"Is this going to give us a job?" Lu Xingcai asked.
"Almost" Hong Shengcheng nodded, "The company has already discussed with Ment, and will invest in cooperating with them to shoot a TV series, the red robe should have told you before"
"Brother Red Robe, I did say so, and I also said that Brother Xiuxun would be the hero," Lu Xingcai said.
"That's right," Hong Seung-sung continued, "I called you here today to explain some things about this TV series."
"The script and director have already been found, but as you know, the director and screenwriter like to choose the actors themselves, and they don't like the producer's designation"
"So I can only determine the role of Xiuxun as the leading actor, as for the other roles that the company wants to arrange, you have to go to the audition, including Xingcai's role, that is, the second male lead in the play, you need to audition in a few days to satisfy the director and screenwriter, otherwise they will arrange other roles for you," Hong Shengcheng explained.
"That's it," Lu Xingcai muttered a little disappointed.
Indeed, the company will definitely support Zheng Xiuxun.
Then he can only compete with others for the post, or choose a dispensable role.
It's just that the second male lead is in front of him, who would think about other supporting roles?
"Don't be too disappointed," Song Hongpao comforted, "After all, the company is an investor, and you must give the company face, as long as you can meet their requirements, this role is still yours."
"Well, I'll work hard," Lu Xingcai nodded and said.
"You kid, what are you worried about" Zheng Xiuxun smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "You are a member of BTOB, how can you back down in the face of such a trivial matter, you can't say that you work hard, you should say that you will definitely win this role"
"How can this guarantee ......" Lu Xingcai had a confused expression.
"Su-hoon, you stinky boy, you've been getting more powerful lately," M.K teased.
"Then I don't dare to be majestic in front of Brother M.K," Zheng Xiuxun said with a smile.
"M.K, you give me a serious point, I haven't finished talking about things yet," Hong Shengcheng scolded with a smile.
"Yes, yes, President, you continue to instruct," M.K nodded perfunctorily.
"You kid" Hong Shengcheng glared at him angrily and funny, and then said, "That's the case, the background of the script is in Busan, so the crew asked me to ask, can you two speak the Busan dialect?" ”
"I won't" Lu Xingcai shook his head, he was born in Yongin City, next to Seoul, most of South Korea separated from Busan.
"I seem to know a little," Jung so-hoon hesitated and said, "My hometown is Busan, but after my parents went abroad to work, I came to live in Seoul with my grandparents."
"It takes a little time to recall and review"
"It's good to have a foundation, find someone to teach you and you can quickly find a feeling, and it doesn't have to be an authentic Busan dialect, just a little dialect is enough," Hong Seung-sung said.
"As for Xingcai's words" Hong Shengcheng pondered for a while, and said, "You also try to learn first, if you really can't do it, you can only invite someone to dub later, of course, the premise is that you want to get the role of male number two"
"Xiuxun is right, you have to take it down, you know? This is a TV series that the company has specially invested in to support you."
"Well, I will work hard to not disappoint everyone," Lu Xingcai said very seriously.
"Don't be too nervous" Hong Shengcheng chuckled, "It's good to play normally, the teacher who gave you an acting class said that you are very talented"
"Huh?" Lu Xingcai was a little flattered.
"In the afternoon, the other party will send the script over, and then let the red robe send it to you, find out the feeling in advance, if you don't feel at ease, come to the company, let the acting teacher guide you, and open a small stove for you" Hong Shengcheng instructed.
"By the way, president" Jung so-hoon suddenly opened his mouth and asked curiously, "If this drama is going to know the Busan dialect, the heroine designated by the company before should not be Eundi, right?" ”
In Jung so-hoon's impression, the company meets this requirement, and among the female artists who have debuted, there should be only Apink Jung Eun-di.
"Well, it's indeed her" Hong Shengcheng nodded, "She is in Apink, and she should be regarded as the most popular one right now, so the company plans to praise her and see the effect"
"That's right," Zheng Xiuxun nodded with relief.
Now that it has been confirmed that he is going to star, it would be better for the crew to have more acquaintances.
Speaking of Jung Eun-di, he instantly remembered Park Chu-long, and immediately asked, "Then will the other members of Apink also appear here?" ”
It's not very direct, and he doesn't know if Hong Shengcheng and the others have forgotten what happened to him and Park Chulong before.
"Hehe, Xiuxun, you kid, why don't you speak directly?" M.K is ambiguous. A smiling face.
Of the people present in the office, only Lu Xingcai looked confused, he had not witnessed that incident.
"The company will also arrange for them to audition and give them a chance, but whether they can get the role or not depends on themselves" Hong Shengcheng replied normally, and did not show too much abnormality.
How to say that it has been almost 2 years since that incident, and it is always the company that owes Zheng Xiuxun.
"I see," Jung so-hoon said, nodding.
"What's more, MBC has already sent a notice asking us to get ready, and we can start filming in mid-June, so so-hoon has to be mentally prepared."
"What kind of mental preparation does this require? Xiuxun has such a show that makes you blatantly fall in love with more female idols, don't you think it's cool? M.K laughed.
"Brother M.K, I'm not stupid, this kind of variety show that writes the script in advance is the same as filming, what kind of love is it? And there are so many people around him, so many cameras are facing him, this person who can be in love, it's called something wrong," Zheng Xiuxun rolled his eyes.
The so-called effect, that is for the audience to see, both sides of the parties, it is estimated that there is no feeling at all.
Of course, there are also artists who fall in love because of the show "We Are Married", but those are always a minority.
Most of the couples who got on the bus were actually not as shown on the show at all.
They may not even have any contact with each other in private.
For artists, it's just a show.
The pink plot was all thought up with the help of the writers of the crew.
"Yo, I can't think of you kid, but I still quite understand"
"That's right, I'm not stupid," Jung so-hoon said angrily.
"It's good that you can think like this" Hong Shengcheng reminded pointedly, "Your contract also stipulates that during the period of the newcomer's contract, you can't fall in love, and don't ask the company to come forward to be a sinner at that time"
"It's only 2 years," M.K waved his hand disapprovingly, "For their group of young people, 2 years is a blink of an eye"
All the newcomer contracts of all BTOB members have only been signed for two years, and even once made the public feel the difference.
If you change companies at any time, it will be at least 3 years.
But Cube only signed for 2 years, and he is not afraid of being poached by others when it expires.
"Don't worry, President, I know everything."
"Well, I'm still very relieved of you, and you are also responsible for supervising your members," Hong Shengcheng admonished.
"I will"
"By the way, if you have time, you can prepare in advance, you will definitely return once in the second half of the year, and if you can, you will continue to make the album, if you really don't have time, the company will help you record the songs"
"So, in fact, our trip has not been reduced at all? Can I request an extra two days off? Zheng Xiuxun said very bitterly.
"No," Hong Shengcheng shook his head, "You are now the company's golden signboard, and I still count on you to go public."
"............" Zheng Xiuxun was speechless for a moment.
"Okay, if it's okay, you can continue to go back and rest, and remember to read the script well in the afternoon, especially you, Xingcai" Hong Shengcheng told again.
"I will," Lu Xingcai nodded.
"Then we'll take our leave," he said, and the two of them left the office.
is accompanied by Song Hongpao, who needs to go to MBC TV to discuss things with the crew of "I Knot" (to be continued.) )
