After winning the Best Newcomer Award in the Film category at the Baeksang Arts Awards, Li Shusheng's life was even busier than before, if it weren't for the fact that he had not pushed down some of the announcements in order to take part of the time to prepare for the Tchaikovsky International Music Competition, he would not even have a normal schedule, which was unthinkable before!

Fortunately, TD Entertainment doesn't need him to worry too much, there is Lin Tianxi inside and Tony outside, and the only thing he has to do at present is to continuously improve his fame to attract more trainees, and for now, TD Entertainment's reputation is gradually rising

With the popularity of "Romance", the name of TD Entertainment also spread with Li Shusheng's deliberate publicity. A subsequent contract dispute made TD Entertainment fully present in South Korea. In front of the national media, Yoon Eun-hye caused a dispute with the current economic company because of the contract, and even affected the filming of "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop". Because of the temporary economic contract she had signed, she resolutely joined TD Entertainment after paying a light liquidated damages.

With Yoon Eun-hye's current fame, she could have chosen a better CJ Entertainment, but it's a pity that she moved so fast that she had already signed a contract with Lin Tianxi before CJ Entertainment could react. Such a resolute behavior immediately caused a lot of speculation in the media, and Li Shusheng's identity as the legal representative of TD was officially excavated, and for a while, the relationship between the two who may secretly communicate with each other was also noisy.

It's a pity that the indifferent attitude of the two parties and the resolute attitude of TD Entertainment spokesperson Cai Shiliu made these speculations quickly stillborn. Except for coming to TD Entertainment on the day of the signing, Yoon Eun-hye was in the crew of "Coffee Prince No. 1 Store" the rest of the time; Li Shusheng himself is also deeply indebted and rarely exposes his itinerary. Deliberately avoiding suspicion, those tabloid reporters don't even have photo materials, most of them are still used for half a year, how can such a clumsy method deceive the eyes of the general public, the rumors will soon stop here!

"Brother Zimi. What is this? Comic books? Li Shusheng looked at the black-and-white anime cover in his hand and smoothed out the somewhat curled corners: ""The War of Money"? ”

"Well, because of the hit of "Romance", your role as Zhengtai has made many people's eyes shine, including the director of this comic TV series version that was being prepared before-Zhang Taeyou, it is said that he chose you when he watched the second episode, because recently you have been busy participating in "Infinite Challenge" and "Do It! Go", I will privately help you take over this TV series. I've seen this manga before, and if you can play it well, you'll definitely win Best Actor at the Baeksang Arts Awards next year! ”

"Such a break," Jiang Zimi's determined tone surprised Li Shusheng. In his impression, the other party never seemed to use such a positive tone, which made him start to be a little interested in the comic in front of him.

"Revenge money can't be done, but enslaved by money, a man's life drama!" Slowly reading a sentence on the title page, Li Shusheng slowly immersed himself in the world woven by the cartoonist.

"In front of the mansion plastered with money. Kinnaro walked majestically, his heart full of joy...... Suddenly. A burst of gunfire was heard. He woke up from a sweet dream. Leaving the shooting range, Naro and his girlfriend Cha Yeon go to attend the wedding of their sister Ginyuki. Put usury. Ma Dongpu, who took out a loan, appeared at the wedding, and he was forced to be unable to repay the usury. Naro's father, who took out the loan, wrote a letter of guarantee to give up his body. Before the wedding ceremony began, Ma Dongpu and his gang began to collect the gift money in the bag, and Naro protested desperately, but only got a punch and kick. ”

Comics are more impactful than words. Li Shusheng was quickly attracted by the subject matter of the work. The increasingly rampant phenomenon of lending as a country H has been criticized by sociologists, but the higher-ups have not been able to solve this problem well, and even take the initiative to shelter those who are usurious. lender to obtain benefits.

"The War on Money" revolves around this sensitive topic. It tells the tragic love story between a borrower and a creditor who uses love as collateral. Set in Seoul and the surrounding area, Kinaro is a ruthless but kind-hearted private debt businessman who falls in love with Seo Joo-hee, who has a debt relationship with him. Xu Zhuxi has been under high interest since childhood. I grew up in a poor family that suffered from loans, but even so, I was able to maintain a healthy attitude and a strong heart under all circumstances. It wasn't until she met Kinnaro that her world began to undergo unprecedented changes, and the two worlds that seemed to be incompatible were brought together by love. Ha Woo Sung is an apprentice who works under Kinnaro, his parents were killed in a car accident at an early age, so the young Woo Sung grew up in an orphanage, and although he has always been polite to others, he is very cold and dark inside. There are many complicated, cut-out, and messy stories around "money" between several people.

After reading the comics in one go, Li Shusheng exhaled deeply: "Although I only read it cursoly, this story is really attractive, but are you sure that the rewritten TV script will retain its original flavor, some of the views in it have a lot of ridicule for those who are in power!" ”

"Are you worried that the screenwriter will be forced to make compromises and then revise the script because of the pressure?" Jiang Zimi immediately understood his concern, and then nodded: "I didn't think about it before, but now it seems that there is indeed such a possibility." The second half of the comic has been interspersed with various ironies. The rules are also blunt, so why don't I help you refuse? Anyway, this TV series is still in the works."

Li Shusheng waved his hand unexpectedly and expressed his opinion. "No, the character of Kinnaro is very challenging, extremely cruel on the one hand, without blood or tears, no matter how urgent, with a calm and unfazed approach, but once he has a whim, he can't die well around him; On the other side is a fiery sense of justice. This kind of role with dual personalities does have a temptation for me today, playing that kind of youth idol can only be regarded as a true performance, and there are not many opportunities to test my acting skills. Don't you say, I may win the Best Actor in a Hundred Flowers? ”

Seeing that Jiang Zimi was still worried about the script, he couldn't help but smile lightly: "Brother Zimi, don't forget, in a sense, I also belong to the camp of the superiors, the type of people who play chess!" ”

"You mean" Jiang Zimi suddenly realized, touched her forehead and smiled bitterly: "However, even so, you have to be prepared for the shrinkage of the script later, the status of the screenwriter in country H is very low, and she may choose a more compromise way in order to survive until the end." ”

"After all, my main business is still an actor, as long as I play my play well, as long as it is not changed too outrageously, or the ratings make me unbearable!" Li Shusheng shrugged his shoulders and said he didn't mind.

"Well, I'll make an appointment and arrange for you to meet with the crew" (to be continued......)
