Chapter 101: Honest Chen He
Seoul Restaurant, after coming here once, Jin Shenglie couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and I don't know what happened to Chen Shiyan after that, and whether she was embarrassed after returning to the company, but according to Yin Zhen's character of being cold on the outside and hot on the inside, I believe she should have no problems.
When he came to the agreed room, he was warmly welcomed by Park Zhenyu as soon as he entered the door, and even Chen Hyuk greeted him very cordially, so that Kim Sungyeol was not mentally prepared at all, and after politely greeting Chen Hyuk, Gao Dongshan and Park Zhenyu, he came to the seat and sat down.
"Congratulations, Holy Martyr. The TV series was a success, and it looks like you're going to be busy for a while. Park Zhenyu said with a smile.
Hearing this, Jin Shenglie hurriedly said modestly: "This is all the credit of Director Gao, I didn't do anything." ”
"Ah, Dongseon. You must have done something good in your last life, so now you can meet a good actor like Shenglie, right? Park Zhenyu said with a smile.
Gao Dongshan is also very happy in his heart, the ratings of the TV series have improved, which must be a good thing for him, and the TV series he filmed before him have never thought that "Single Girl with ulterior motives" could achieve such high ratings, and he also said with high spirits at the moment: "Yes, you are envious and jealous, right?" ”
The four of them laughed, Chen He turned his head to look at Kim Sungyeol, and asked with a smile, "Sunyeol, are you interested in starring in my new TV series "Doctor Stranger"?" ”
I don't know why the atmosphere suddenly became dull, Jin Shenglie knew that Gao Dongshan must have called him here for this matter, but Jin Shenglie also had his own insistence, he didn't want to get a role by intercession and charity, so he wanted to refuse, but Gao Dongshan was by his side, and he couldn't help but give him face.
And Chen Hyuk and Park Jinyu saw that Kim Sungyeol did not immediately express his attitude, but became silent, and they couldn't help but panic a little in their hearts, the two remembered the coldness they had with Yin Zhen when they were eating here before, maybe Kim Sungyeol didn't want to agree because of that matter now?
Gao Dongshan, as a bystander, when Jin Shenglie was silent, he had already thought that it seemed that the incident should have left a bad impression on Jin Shenglie's heart, it seemed that things were a little troublesome, at this time only Gao Dongshan could ask, he wanted to see Jin Shenglie, and said, "What's the matter, Shenglie?" Is there any confusion about it? ”
"Well, that's right. I have some doubts in my heart, may I ask Director Chen He why he asked me to appear in your TV series. Now that Gao Dongshan has opened his mouth to ask, Jin Shenglie is no longer silent, he asked.
Hearing this, Chen He didn't feel surprised, before Jin Shenglie spoke, Chen He was already mentally prepared to deal with any questions from Jin Shenglie, after all, his previous attitude was too cold, and it was normal for the other party to be a little dissatisfied. ”
Chen He's reason made Jin Shengyeol's heart feel a lot more comfortable, he said: "Thank you director for your affirmation, I have been working hard recently to star in "Single Girl with Ulterior Motives", and I may not be able to take care of the new drama, so I ......"
"Don't worry about this, "Single Girl with Ulterior Motives" has now been filmed to the tenth episode, I believe that all the filming should be completed before this month, my Chen He, you said before, your drama will not start filming until April, right?" Seeing that Kim Sung-yeol wanted to refuse, Gao Dong-sun hurriedly said that in his opinion, the script of "Doctor Stranger" was much better than the script of "Single Girl with Ulterior Motives", which was a good opportunity for Kim Sung-yeol.
Park Zhenyu also said at this time: "Well, that's right. Now the literary book has come out, but the story book and storyboard have not yet come out, and the actors are still being selected, and it is estimated that the official filming will not start until mid-April, so you don't need to worry about the conflict in the incident. ”
"Well, both Jinwoo and Dongseon are right. Holy Martyr, I know that my attitude may have hurt your self-esteem a little bit for you. Please forgive me for the faux pas of the first meeting, it was our first time meeting and I didn't know you very well before. I was worried that appointing an unclear actor might have a bad impact on my TV series, so I was very cold at that time. Chen He nodded, he took a deep breath, he was also a very honest person as a director's colleague, and he said bluntly at the moment.
Park Jin-woo and Gao Dong-sun didn't expect Chen Hyuk to suddenly say this, while being slightly surprised, the two also admired Chen Hyuk's honesty, and at the moment, the eyes of the two of them focused on Kim Sung-yeol at the same time, wanting to see how Kim Sung-yeol replied.
And at this time, the degree of surprise in Kim Sungyeol's heart was no less than that of Park Zhenyu and Gao Dongshan, his dissatisfaction with Chen He at this time almost disappeared, in the face of Chen He's sincerity and confession, Kim Sungyeol was able to empathize with what was the reason for Chen He's cold attitude at that time, to put it bluntly, he was worried that he was an actor who had no strength and could only rely on relationships, as two people who had never known each other deeply, Chen He was right to think so.
Chen He saw that Jin Shenglie didn't speak, so he continued: "Until the premiere of "Single Girl with Ulterior Motives" some time ago, Zhenyu and I also found out all your previous film and television materials while seeing your excellent acting skills, there is no doubt that your acting skills are outstanding, and your appearance is also quite passable, this TV series is very important to me, I want to find an actor who can play a stable acting role to star." ”
"Chen He is right, Holy Martyr. Judging from all the TV series and movies you have starred in since your debut, you haven't actually acted in many dramas. But without exception, every play has received very good reviews, and every play has won you an award, and your stable acting skills and adaptability to various roles are very good. Park Jin-woo said.
Having said all this, the doubts in Jin Shenglie's heart have all disappeared, and now his dissatisfaction with Chen He is gone, since the other party is seriously thinking about my advantages in starring in the TV series, then for Jin Shenglie, this conversation should be a very formal interview, at the moment Jin Shenglie is sitting in danger, and said to Chen He: "I don't know which role the director wants me to play?" ”
"Actor, Park Hoon." Chen He said.
Kim Sung-yeol was not very surprised, just now when Chen Hyuk and Park Jin-woo explained to themselves so solemnly, he could feel that he might be about to play the leading role, because the supporting role needs to communicate with himself so seriously?
"Thank you for your trust, director, I feel that I can be qualified for the role of Park Hoon." With a faint smile on his face, Jin Shenglie said to Chen He.
Kim Sung-yeol is not a rookie newcomer, in fact, he debuted as early as 2002, when he first returned to South Korea, he was indeed a little uncomfortable, after all, he has been immersed for six years, and it is not so easy to make up for the six years of disconnection from society.
Park Jin-woo took the script out of the file bag, handed it to Kim Sung-yeol, and said with a smile: "I am very happy to be able to work with you Sung-yeol, and I hope that in the future, we can learn from each other and make progress together." ”
"I hope to be able to make a successful TV series like "Single Girl with Ulterior Motives", of course, in terms of ratings, we must surpass Dongshan. Well, no problem, Holy Martyr? Chen He quipped.
Gao Dongshan on the side also knew that Chen He was making fun of himself, but now this good atmosphere is good, and Gao Dongshan pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Ah, Chen He, you old boy." ”
"Director Gao, don't worry, it's a big deal that I'll make a mistake on purpose." Kim Sung-yeol also smiled.
Chen He knew that Jin Shenglie was joking with himself, and he couldn't help laughing: "This can't be done, Zhenyu, we seem to be in trouble." ”
"Well, it looks like this. Hahaha......" Park Jin-woo said with a hearty smile.
At 11 o'clock in the evening in Seoul, the fourth episode of "Single Girl with Ulterior Motives" broadcast on MBC, the national ratings were 20.77%, although it didn't rise much, but it was not bad, you must know that the 20% rating in the Mizuki drama is already a strong contender for the good drama of the year, and the average rating of the drama "You from the Stars", which was popular throughout Korea and even Asia, was only about 24%.
After reaching 20% of the ratings, the growth is very slow, and sometimes there will even be a decline, these are normal things, so Kim Sung-yeol didn't care, and tonight at the Seoul restaurant Ko Dong-sun told Kim Sung-yeol about these after getting a report from his assistant on MBC's side.
Although he had agreed in advance not to drink alcohol in the evening, Kim Sung-yeol still couldn't shirk Chen He's enthusiasm and drank two glasses of soju symbolically. During the banquet, Kim Sung-yeol also asked Chen Shiyan's question, because Chen He had mentioned that he wanted to invite Chen Shi-yeon to appear in a TV series, because now Kim Sung-yeol has decided to officially prepare to star in "Doctor Stranger", so Chen Hyuk has nothing to avoid.
Chen He said that the crew had officially sent an invitation to Chen Shiyan, but because there were still a few episodes of "Grateful Times" that had not been filmed, it was estimated that Chen Shiyan would not be able to come to the crew to audition and take makeup photos until mid-March. During this period, Chen He also said a very important information, that is, Chen Shiyan is choosing a new owner recently, which is a very good news for Kim Sung-yeol.
