Chapter Twenty-Six: Decisions
Li Hur didn't understand Zhang Xingquan's behavior, and he didn't understand it very, very much. There are no celebrity idols in the whole of Korea except for him and exo, right? Those popular idols are all decorations, right? As for having to choose between him and Bian Boxian?
Bian Boxian is not suitable, he can't act, how to choose this Nima? It's not suitable for anyone!
"President"
Zhang Xingquan waved his hand and said solemnly: "If you can't decide now, go back first, and give me an answer before seven o'clock tonight." ”
Walking out of the president's room in a depressed way, Li Hur wanted to laugh inexplicably. It's all mo and mo! For him now, playing the leading role in a drama will definitely do more harm than good. has no acting skills, no popularity, and even no excellent appearance, which will definitely lower the quality of this drama, and it is very likely that this drama will hit the street.
I don't care if you're rich and willful, but don't hurt me! The first play in my career as a writer, you don't pay attention to me, can you be so childish?
"Why do you look like this, what's wrong?" Li Youjing, who heard the sound of pushing the door, raised his head, looked at his strange face and asked.
Sitting opposite her in a tangled way, Li hurriedly opened his mouth with a smile: "I fell into a dilemma." ”
Li Youjing looked at him suspiciously: "What dilemma?" ”
Li hurriedly sighed and said: "Regarding the male protagonist, the president has to choose between me and Bian Boxian, as if he has eaten a scale, no matter what I say, I have determined this matter." ”
Li Youjing's eyes were slightly weird, and he spoke: "Bian Boxian can still understand, after all, he is an idol, and he has acted before." What's going on with you? A writer is actually going to shoot a web series? ”
"Maybe it's because I'm mad at him." Li Hurry smiled bitterly and told him the conversation with Zhang Xingquan in detail.
Li Youjing listened quietly, suddenly laughed, and spoke: "You deserve it, who let you contradict the president like this." ”
"However, I really can't let Bian Boxian take over this role."
Li Youjing was silent for a moment, and then said, "Actually, after listening to you say this, I now have some suspicions that you have a holiday with Bian Boxian." ”
Li hurriedly shook his head, speechless.
"I'll go and persuade the president, give him a step down, maybe he won't embarrass you." Li Youjing opened his mouth, saw the joy on his face, and said again: "But don't report too much hope, if I don't move, and you don't change your mind, just prepare to act by yourself." ”
Li Hur's face pulled down again and sighed.
Half an hour later, Li Youjing came back and told him bad news. Zhang Xingquan was really determined this time, and firmly insisted on those two choices.
"I'm really" walked out of Li Youjing's office and came to the window at the end of the corridor, Li hurriedly lit a cigarette and smoked, but the burden in his heart became heavier and heavier.
I smoked three cigarettes, and when I wanted to smoke the fourth, I suddenly found that there was no one in the cigarette case. Holding the cigarette case tightly in his hand, he took a deep breath and slowly exhaled it, his eyes gradually becoming firm: "As long as you dare to use me, I will dare to go!" ”
"Figured it out? Decided to use Bian Boxian? Zhang Xingquan, who heard the footsteps, raised his head, saw that it was him, and said with a smile. A face of the chest in the bamboo. He expected that Li Hur would definitely give him a soft face, because if the show failed, he would lose at most some of his money; What he lost was a chance to succeed. Whoever cares more will compromise first.
"Figured it out." Li hurriedly nodded, and shook his head again: "But it's not about preparing to use Bian Boxian." ”
Zhang Xingquan was stunned and looked at him in surprise: "Then are you preparing to go on your own?" You are crazy?! ”
"It turns out that the president never believed me from the beginning to the end." When the words came out, Li Hur felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, and said casually.
Zhang Xingquan was silent for a while, and said: "Although it is very shameless to say it, but the fact is that you don't have any acting experience, how can you directly play the leading role in a play?" ”
"When Cha Seung-won was filming "New York Story", he didn't have acting experience, right?" Li hurriedly asked rhetorically.
"Do you think you can compare to Cha Seung-won?" Zhang Xingquan's eyes are strange, like looking at a frog at the bottom of a well.
Li Hur suddenly laughed and said, "Hearing that I am going to act, the president will not regret it, regret making this decision." ”
Zhang Xingquan smiled: "Will I regret it?" I'm just kindly advising you, but it's still for the sake of you being a disciple of Li Youjing, otherwise do you think I'd talk to you like this? I would have given you an order a long time ago. ”
"And what about your decision now?" Li hurriedly bowed slightly, expressing his gratitude for not forcing him to obey orders.
Zhang Xingquan stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, his sharp eyes seemed to be able to see his body, and he went straight to his soul: "You have to promise me that my investment will never be wasted." ”
Li Hurry was stunned, and said sneeringly: "How can I promise you? Moreover, where is there no risky investment, even if it is not me, it is Bian Boxian who plays it, it cannot be said to be 100% successful. ”
"However, it will be much riskier for you to play than for him to star." Zhang Xingquan said bluntly.
Li hurriedly grinned, this Nima is really direct: "How can the president guarantee me?" ”
Zhang Xingquan's eyes rolled, and he said: "My request is very simple, if this drama is profitable, then everyone will be happy." If you break even, I don't say anything; If you lose money, you just have to give me the amount of the loss. ”
Holy! Li Hur wanted to go up and bite him to death. Where in the world is there such a good thing, the profit is yours, the loss is mine, you didn't wake up from your dream, right?
"What, don't agree?!" Zhang Xingquan opened his mouth casually.
"Hehe, hehe." Li hurriedly laughed: "The joke made by President Nim is a bit big, and my little heart can't stand it." ”
"I'm not kidding you." Zhang Xingquan said: "Of course, if you lose money, it won't let you pay it off immediately, you can pay it back slowly, anyway, your contract is still here in the company, and you can't go." ”
"You're just going to eat me, aren't you?" Li asked speechlessly.
Zhang Xingquan showed a smug smile on his face: "I am not only the president, but also a businessman, a shrewd businessman. ”
"It's the first time I've seen someone compliment me like this."
"That's because I'm not that hypocritical." Zhang Xingquan stood up from his seat, "Actually, in the final analysis, there is no need to be hypocritical with you. If you are a rookie writer, if you are hypocritical, you will lose your identity invisibly. ”
"You're a real villain." Li Hurry said in admiration.
Zhang Xingquan nodded, and after a while, he suddenly turned his head and glared: "You scolded me?!" ”
