Chapter 105: Let's Play (1)

Jung Sung-hyun accompanied Peter on a day tour of South Korea to prepare for MBC, and Peter preferred Gyeongbokgung Palace and Bulguksa Temple to those more modern Myeongdong and Lotte World. In the evening, I accompanied him to watch the traditional court dance and mask dance at the Korean House, and in general, it was quite enjoyable for the guests and hosts.

The next day, Jung Sung-hyun and Peter went to the MBC headquarters in Yeouido to wait for the recording, and unexpectedly met Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Tae-hee in the lounge.

"Brother Taehyun, are you also there?" Jung Sung-hyun was surprised.

After everyone greeted each other, Cha Tae-hyun complained dissatisfiedly: "It's not to cooperate with you, just you and Mr. Jackson are in Brother Shi I'm afraid the show will be too dull"

Unlike Jung Sung-hyun's confusion, Cha Tae-hyun's address to Peter Jackson is much more formal.

"Oh, that's it" Zheng Chengxian nodded and invited Peter to sit down, several of them spoke good English, there was no barrier to communication with each other, and the staff of the program came in to put headphones on Peter Jackson for synchronous translation.

With the reminder of the staff, several people got up and walked to the backstage to wait for the host's introduction.

The show "Let's Play" is based on Yoo Jae-seok and Kim Won-hee, and the MC is accompanied by an indefinite number of funny artists, with the main purpose of letting the audience understand the life behind the stars, and the ratings of the show have been good since 2004.

As mentioned earlier, the Korean host was very exaggerated when he introduced the guests, if it was barely acceptable when introducing Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Tae-hee, when it came to Jung Sung-hyun's words such as 'the man who moved the world' and 'need the whole world to listen', it had reached the point where people were blushing, and when introducing Peter Jackson, he was also extremely exaggerated, and he shook his head and smiled bitterly backstage.

"Welcome Mr. Jackson and Jung Sung-hyun, writers, welcome Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Tae-hee" Yoo Jae-seok and several MCs applauded vigorously, and the enthusiasm on their faces was extremely sincere.

Of course, Zheng Chengxian knew that this was the effect of the show, but Peter didn't know, so he enthusiastically stepped forward to shake hands with the MC one by one and said to Yoo Jae-seok: "Mr. host, you are too complimentary"

Several MCs greeted everyone and invited them to take a seat.

After everyone sat down, the show officially began, and Liu Zaishi tried his best to lead the topic to Jackson, but the time was rushed and the preparation was insufficient, and there were few topics, and more often he was just looking for baggage on Cha Tae-hyun and them.

"Kim Tae-hee, what have you been busy with lately? From "The King's Man" to now, this is the first time I've seen you" The topic of the female guest seems to have been provoked by Kim Won-hee, and she also did a good job, interjecting at the right time when everyone was chatting.

Kim Tae-hee, who was bored and stayed aside, maintained a warm smile, this professionalism was worthy of praise, and when he heard the topic on himself, he hurriedly replied: "Wang's man is very tired from shooting, so he has been recuperating during this time, today is the first time I have appeared in front of the camera, and I was very surprised to receive a call from the program team." ”

"Tired? Nuna, my script isn't so bitter, is it? The journey pretended to be a grievance.

The expression of the clear-eyed face became more distinct, and Jung Sung-hyun's words caused everyone to laugh.

Kim Tae-hee smiled anxiously and waved his hand repeatedly: "No, no, I didn't mean that." It's just that that role is very different from what I've played before, and I'm struggling to simulate and speculate constantly when I'm playing, so I'm a little tired. I have no intention of complaining," he bowed as he finished speaking.

"Tae Hee xi, don't be deceived by him, he is very good at acting, and he has played Hyo-ri before." Liu Zaishi jumped out in time to play a round and stabbed Zheng Chengxian.

"Brother Shi, how can you do this to me," Zheng Chengxian once again showed an aggrieved expression.

The crowd laughed exaggeratedly again.

"I've seen Mr. Zheng's The King's Man," Peter Jackson interjected suddenly, and as one of the main figures of the day, his speech was focused on.

"You've seen it? Did that movie make it to New Zealand? Liu Zaishi asked in surprise.

"Not really, it's just that I need to know about Mr. Zheng's previous works before I come. I have to say that the script is very good, although I don't really understand the feelings in it, but the whole story is still very attractive to me, my wife and I sat in front of the computer and read it in one go, that is, after watching the movie, my wife supported me to come to South Korea to find Mr. Zheng to seek cooperation. ”

Peter Jackson quietly brought the topic to the purpose of his visit to South Korea this time, which can be regarded as promoting the movie in advance.

"What is your cooperation with Sung-hyun ...... this time?" Liu Zaishi answered in time.

Celebrities come to the show to gain exposure and promote new works, and the hosts understand it.

"When I first saw the book "The Lord of the Rings", I really wanted to put it on the screen, so I didn't think much about it, so I flew here, but fortunately, Mr. Zheng didn't disappoint me for the sake of my big fat man who was not easy to fly" Peter patted his stomach and laughed self-deprecatingly, and his humorous words caused everyone to laugh exaggeratedly.

"Jung Sung-hyun, Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings, the two works that have influenced the world, are both from you, I'm curious which one do you prefer?" Today's assistant MC Lu Hongzhe interjected and asked.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, this question is not easy to answer, Liu Zaishi can't help but chuckle in his heart. Embarrassment is not what a good MC should do.

Zheng Chengxian first asked rhetorically: "Lu Hongzhexi, which one do you like?" ”

"I prefer Harry Potter," Lu Hongzhe pretended to be distressed, grabbing his hair and tearing it up, waiting for everyone's laughter to stop before answering.

"So you're a crazy kid?" Jung Sung-hyun said with a smile.

Crazy child is Lu Hongzhe's nickname, and it is Liu Zaishi's unintentional complaint, because it fits Lu Hongzhe's image and is gradually contacted and spread by everyone.

Zheng Chengxian's pun drew laughter from everyone.

"Actually, I can't say which of the two novels I like better, because it is my work at different stages, so I can say that I like both novels. Harry Potter represents the fantasy of my youth, and The Lord of the Rings is my hypothesis at this stage, and maybe when I am older, I will write a magical work suitable for that age. Jung Sung-hyun explained after everyone's laughter had subsided.

The topic of doing a show can't focus on one person, so Liu Jae-seok turned his head to Che Tae-hyun and asked: "Tae-hyun As far as I know, the movie you're shooting now is also related to Sung-hyun, right?" ”

"Yes, Chengxian is an investor!" He and Kim Tae-hee both knew in their hearts that the two of them came today to set off Peter Jackson and Jung Sung-hyun, so they didn't pay attention to the cold reception just now.

"We all know that there is a bit of incompatibility between investors and directors, this is not a personal grudge but a different angle of consideration, which everyone is deeply aware of in this industry, so is it difficult for Jung Sung-hyun to deal with it on the set?"

Speaking of this, Peter Jackson is also a little curious, although Zheng Chengxian said that he would not interfere, but who knows what will happen in the future? So for the first time, this big fat man stared at Cha Tae-hyun with full attention, wanting to know more about the behavior of his future partners.

"What do you say," Cha Tae-hyun thought, "He's the least investor I've ever met."

As soon as these words came out, Zheng Chengxian on the other side smiled bitterly, knowing that this brother was going to reveal his old background.

"What does this mean? What is the least investor like an investor? Liu Zaishi asked

"It's been a few months since the film started shooting, and I've seen him twice on the set," Cha Tae-hyun said and gestured with his finger: "One is to take people to study, and the other is to find someone to drink"

The people present couldn't help but sigh in surprise, and they didn't need to be post-production.

"Wouldn't it? Kim Tae-heexi, you've also worked with Jung Sung-hyun, is that really the case? Jin Yuanxi asked with a look of disbelief.

Kim Tae-hee chuckled: "I often saw him when I was making movies, at that time he squatted on the set every day, but he never took the initiative to talk to someone and squatted on the side to write all day long. So much so that most of the movie was filmed, and there are still many staff members who don't know who he is. ”

I have heard too much about investors using power for personal gain in the circle, and the words of Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Tae-hee made everyone sigh, and they had the same idea of raising a hundred kinds of people in their hearts.

This circle is highly competitive, and many practitioners try their best to get an opportunity, and naturally all kinds of bad rumors are extended. But most practitioners are still willing to have a clean environment to show their ambitions, and investors like Zheng Chengxian who are completely hands-off are exactly what they want to meet.

After the broadcast of this episode, many directors added Zheng Sung-hyun as a candidate for cooperation in their hearts, which can be regarded as unintentional insertion.
