Chapter 487: The Way Oriental Men Treat Their Partners
The next day, the livelihood section of Seoul Ilbo published an inconspicuous news - "A famous club in Cheongdam-dong was suspected of illegal activities and was seized by relevant departments". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The news has barely attracted attention, and in a country like South Korea, which strongly promotes entertainment culture, this kind of news is far less interesting than the new songs and movies of big stars. People are more willing to look at their favorite entertainment news, such as The Lord of the Rings 2, which has been widely discussed recently.
This film, which has fascinated audiences all over the world, has Korean artists involved in everything from the script to the investment to the actors. This made them feel more exposed than the seizure of any club, and the national vanity was also greatly satisfied. Some media outlets exaggerate their abilities as if the entire movie was made by Koreans.
News like this makes Jung Sung-hyun feel ashamed, he is not a person who can accept the praise of others, this is due to his character. However, I don't plan to go against the fanatical Korean people at this time.
Don't admit it or refuse, anyway, you can say whatever you like.
And his 'job' in the crew is mainly to upload photos through Twitter, which are all innocuous photos and interesting things that happen to the crew every day. One is to find something to do for yourself, and the other is to promote the movie a little. Peter didn't stop his behavior, and occasionally took funny selfies with Jung Sung-hyun. The crew did not allow reporters to enter during filming in order to maintain a sense of mystery, and there were no such restrictions when they usually rested.
On this day, Jung Sung-hyun was taking a selfie with Peter and the elf prince, and a 'little hobbit' came from afar.
The figure of less than 1.6 meters does not need special effects, which is very much in line with the image of a hobbit. The brown doll's head was scalded into curls, like a pair of seaweed piled on top of the head. The fair-skinned and smooth little face has been dull and yellow by the skillful hands of the makeup artist, and it is covered with patches of smudges. The thick and heavy costumes made it a little difficult for the actors to walk.
"Oba, look at it, how did you design a look like this for me?"
Quan Baolan opened his hands, his face was full of grievances, and he looked at Zheng Chengxian unhappily.
For girls who love beauty, this kind of dress is naturally disliked, but it is only shown to familiar people.
"Isn't that nice, what a fun little hobbit."
Zheng Chengxian couldn't help laughing and said seriously.
"Didn't you tell me that you wanted me to play the elven warrior?"
Quan Baolan crossed her waist with her hands and stared at Zheng Chengxian angrily, at this time she was really a bit of a hobbit eccentric.
"Elven warrior? nononoγ β
Peter shook his head like a rattle, his face full of disapproval.
In order to deal with Jung Sung-hyun, a writer who can influence him for many years to come, Peter deliberately learned Korean. Although I don't speak very fluently, I basically have no problem listening.
"Miss Quanbaolan, it's too wasteful for you to play an elf female warrior."
Peter waved his hands exaggeratedly: "You are simply a real-life version of the hobbit, you don't need to prepare anything, just put on makeup and get dressed." β
The phrase "a real-life version of the hobbit" made Sapphire very unhappy, but it didn't refute it. She may be able to complain to her boyfriend, but she doesn't dare to be presumptuous against Peter, a world-famous director.
bowed respectfully and said a few polite words, and then sat down next to the two of them with a stiff face.
Zheng Chengxian smiled slightly, knowing that she was still a little unhappy, so he explained:
"Baolan, acting is different from being an idol, and it should be treated differently according to the actual situation. Take your tara as an example, every girl is so beautiful and has a good body, and you have suffered a lot in order to maintain your beauty, because you need to be beautiful and handsome to be an idol. If you don't look good, people don't have much interest when you first come on stage, how can they be patient and listen to what you sing? β
Baolan nodded slightly in approval, and Zheng Chengxian continued:
"But being an actor is different! The requirements of the movie for the actor are that you must match the role and have good acting skills to present the role to the audience. Keep the audience's attention focused on the character, not the actor himself. So you see most of the actors are actually not very handsome, and they are not that beautiful, because they don't need to. β
At this point, Peter interjected:
"It's such a Miss Quan, when the director chooses the actors, the first thing he looks at is not the appearance. I need you to bring the characters in the film to the audience, not to sell yourself to the audience, and there's a big difference. Even if it is a commercial film, when casting, I will try to consider the word suitable. I think you're a good fit for a character like The Hobbit. They are all so kind, brave, and sincere. β
Knowing how important Baolan is to Zheng Chengxian, Peter does not hesitate to praise, a few words can be exchanged for a good atmosphere of cooperation, why not?
"But... People just want to play a beautiful female elf! β
The two 'giants' took turns lobbying, which made Quan Baolan very embarrassed, and silently lowered his head and muttered.
Zheng Chengxian smiled dumbly, and after thinking for a while, he said embarrassedly:
"It's not impossible if you really want to play an elven warrior, but do you have the handsome moves of Orlando? And most importantly, if you temporarily change the role of a female elf, then the plot I designed for you will have to be played by someone else. In that case, you're going to be a trick that you might not have a few shots. So you don't care? β
Speaking of this, Quanbaolan hesitated, how could the artist think that he had few shots? Although beauty is very important, the appearance rate is even more important. Thinking about it like this, she was also relieved and nodded seriously:
"Okay, I'll play the little hobbit."
After speaking, he stood up and left, muttering in annoyance as he walked: "Now I will be laughed to death by Juli and them!" β
This sentence made Zheng Sung-hyun speechless, feeling that she was reluctant to play a hobbit because she was afraid that she would be teased by her teammates after returning to South Korea.
With such a good opportunity, how many people can't get on it if they want to, what's wrong with being teased?
Sometimes a woman's thoughts, he really can't figure it out.
"Zheng, you're so nice to your girlfriend."
Waiting for Baolan to walk away, Peter said with emotion, and then with a little puzzlement: "You think about everything for her like this, and make ideas for her, won't she object?" β
Looking at the royal blue who was chatting happily with Elijah Wood in the distance, Zheng Chengxian chuckled and replied:
"We Easterners treat our partners differently than you Westerners. You respect your autonomy and discuss everything with your partner. We hope to create a safe and worry-free environment for our partner, so that she does not have to go through ups and downs and has a happy life. This is the inherent thinking of most Oriental men. β
"But wouldn't she lose her personal freedom then? If you have to do everything to others, what is the meaning of life? Peter Nahan scratched his head to show incomprehension.
Zheng Chengxian smiled and didn't explain, the cultural atmosphere is different, it is difficult to explain clearly. The conversation changed to something else:
"What did you think about what I told you?" (To be continued.) )
