Chapter Twenty-Six: Trouble with the Crew

Li Shengxian, who was a little deaf to what was going on outside the window, guessed that there would be reporters scribbling at the end of the press conference. If he was a reporter standing in the audience that day, and he showed him an ice face, I was afraid that he would also feel uncomfortable.

But what if it's uncomfortable?

At least Li Shengxian feels that he is actually living a very comfortable life with this face. As long as he is comfortable, he can't care what other people think, and he doesn't want to care. It's that simple!

is at home, speculating in stocks, and his life is monotonous but fulfilling. Until Lee Yoon-jung told him that the TV series had started filming, he, the screenwriter, didn't seem to have been to the filming site, and Lee Sung-hyun knew that he was going out.

Asking the crew for the filming location, Li Shengxian took a taxi directly to the filming location. Thinking that the Korean crew had been filming for a while, he, the screenwriter, appeared in the crew for the first time, and he was a little embarrassed.

Halfway through, Lee Sung-hyun asked the taxi driver to wait for a while and bought five boxes of ice drinks to give to the crew members. After all, it's a bit hot to shoot in this weather!

When Lee Sung-hyun arrived at the filming location, he saw Lee Yoon-jung as soon as he got out of the car, reprimanding a staff member. This made him really curious, what was it that made this female PD seem very angry!

'Lee, what's wrong?' Did something happen? ’

Seeing that the crew didn't seem to start filming, a group of people stayed at the filming location with a helpless look. Li Shengxian, who came over, also stepped forward to ask curiously, which made Li Yunzhen feel a little embarrassed.

But he didn't hide it: "It's not this guy yet, let him contact the coffee shop where he filmed." As a result, he didn't sign a formal contract with anyone, and now we come to start filming, but the other party offers additional compensation.

There are even many restrictions on the time we shoot. This guy is always like this, and he likes to act hastily every time. Now, the other party sees that we are going to start filming right away and offers to increase the remuneration. Do you pay for the extra money? ”

Looking at the blushing staff who were scolded, Li Shengxian also knew it. In this TV series, the coffee shop has to be demolished first and then renovated. Ordinary coffee shops, I'm afraid that they are really unwilling to accept such a crew.

Looking at the coffee shop behind him, Li Shengxian felt that this café didn't seem to be as good as he imagined. said very directly: "Are the other party's conditions very harsh?" ”

'Yes! We have indicated that the cost of the redecoration will be borne by us. But the other party suddenly asked us to compensate for the cost of the original decoration. And the compensation price is obviously unreasonable. I didn't agree! ’

Suddenly remembered that my café was not going to be renovated? There is a TV station that decorates for free and compensates for lost work, why refuse such a good thing? This money can be saved a little bit!

Thinking of this, Li Shengxian quickly said: "Forget it, I'll solve this matter." You call a couple of people to go to the car and help me carry the drinks down. I bought a total of five boxes, and I don't know if it's enough, so let's drink some drinks to cool down the heat. ”

At this staff member who was also full of helplessness, he gave an order to Li Shengxian. and quickly said: "Li PD, wait a minute, let the crew go with me, I'll find a café for you." It's my fault for not coming to see the venue in advance.

This coffee house, the location is very secluded though. But the appearance and style are still different from the café in my novel. In fact, the café I found for PD Lee was the one I was inspired by.

Some time ago, the owner of that café sold it at a low price due to poor cash flow. I felt a little reluctant that the café would disappear, so I paid for it and planned to renovate it in a while! ”

After listening to Lee Sung-hyun's words, Lee Yoon-jung was surprised that Lee Sung-hyun was so young that he could buy the next café. In her opinion, no matter how small the café is, it can't be bought without hundreds of millions!

Thinking about Li Shengxian's family background, it is normal to have this ability. smiled and said, "It seems that I called you here today, and it was really the right call." Okay, then I'll tell you all and start packing your things to get ready to go to your café. ”

In Lee Yoon-jeong's view, since it is a café in Lee Sung-hyun's novel. Then it is used for shooting, which is undoubtedly more suitable for the appearance of the café scene in the novel. What a bonus!

Looking at the field affairs that were still negotiating with the café owner, Li Yunzhen quickly stepped forward and said, "Zhihao, forget it!" I've found another café, you can arrange for someone to reload the equipment, let's go to another filming location! ”

These words made the café owner, who felt that the crew had not officially signed the contract, was slightly stunned but said: "If you find another place to shoot, we will not return the deposit given to us." You've delayed our business today! ”

For some reason, I suddenly felt that the employee was actually very smart. only paid a deposit of 100,000 won, and Li Yunzhen naturally didn't care about this money. quickly said: "Don't worry, you don't have to return this money." Zhihao, hurry up and do something! ”

At this time, the field manager seemed to know that this was not some trick to scare the store owner. Got up and smiled and nodded, and began to inform the staff to reload the equipment. This movement made the café owner who was counting on making a good profit also a little panicked.

But he had already said what he said before, and it was undoubtedly a slap in the face to propose a price reduction again. What's more, the people in front of me are MBC staff. really the other party, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to please him.

What the café owner thinks, Lee Yoon-jung has already ignored it. came to Lee Sung-hyun, who was standing with Yoon Eun-hye and other actors, and said, "Sung-hyun, how about it, should we go first?" It's been a long time since then. ”

'Okay, then let's go!' ’

'Enhui, Kong Liu, you also come with us first!' Take a look at the shooting location and familiarize yourself with the venue. When the equipment arrived, we started shooting. Otherwise, time will be wasted today. ’

After talking to the two leading actors, Yoon Eun-hye, and Kong Yoo-yeong, Lee Yoon-jeong, who was also acting very resolutely, personally drove Lee Sung-hyun to the café on the side of the Han River that Lee Sung-hyun had bought.

Li Shengxian, who was sitting in the back, picked up his mobile phone to make a call after getting into the car. Soon I heard the voice of the café manager from inside, "President! ”

'Manager Park, are there many customers in the store now?' If there aren't many, I'll close down from now on, and I'll bring a crew with me right away. In addition, you have people prepare some more jajangmyeon, and I will invite someone to dinner today. ’

Manager Park, who was staying in the café, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but said cheerfully, "Okay, president." I'll arrange it! ”

Lee Yoon-jeong, who was sitting in front of the car, watched Lee Sung-hyun end the call. He smiled and said, "Please drink just now, and now please eat jajangmyeon." Are you too generous as a screenwriter? ”

It's not going to cost much! As long as everyone works hard to make a good TV series, I believe that I will make the most money in the end. Isn't it? It's called giving up a little money and making a lot of money! ’

Lee Sung-hyun, who said this, knows very well that as long as this TV series is filmed well, the ratings will be good. Then it is possible for him, with this TV series, to enter the line of popular screenwriters by rookie screenwriters.

It seems that the benefits that an increase in the status level can bring to Li Shengxian, and how many cases of drinks can be compared to a meal? This kind of investment is worth it in Li Shengxian's opinion!
