Chapter 215: Shopping
As the most important and most valuable award among the three Korean film awards, the Blue Dragon Award has always been the goal of artists, and it is naturally the vane for Korean fans to pay attention to Korean films.
However, it is obviously not Chen Zaitian's weather vane.
Chen Zaitian actually didn't want to attend the award ceremony of this year's Blue Dragon Awards. Earlier, when Song Kanghao said that he wanted to take him to the award ceremony in person, he refused. With the big bell award ceremony not long ago, he is really reluctant to do this kind of thing of showing his face and making friends.
Also, there are more people who scolded him 'before', is it his turn now? Of course, this is just a joke. Attending the award ceremony with Song Kanghao is certainly able to see some seniors in the circle on the surface, but after all, he is just a newcomer in the entertainment industry, and his qualifications, works, strength, and popularity are not a climate, and people smile at him, it is just for Bong Joon-ho and Song Kang-ho and others to save face, who will pay attention to it afterwards. Moreover, if this method of relying on relationships is used too much, it will eventually make people have opinions and disgust with him. Coupled with his dislike of some personal personalities, Chen Zaitian is really not so cold to the award ceremony of the Blue Dragon Award.
However, this time he really had to go. It's not why, because he was actually invited to this year's Blue Dragon Award ceremony.
If it was Song Kang-ho or Bong Joon-ho and their personal invitations, Chen Zaitian could have politely refused, but the organizers of the Blue Dragon Film Awards actually invited him, then he really had to go. After all, it stands to reason that he Chen Zaitian is just a newcomer who has just debuted. It is already a great honor to be able to attend the Blue Dragon Film Awards, one of the three major film awards in South Korea, and ordinary actors are not even qualified to participate if they do not have the guidance of their powerful predecessors. Such an award ceremony invited him, how dare he, a little newcomer, refuse, it would be too 'ignorant of lifting', unless he doesn't want to go down in the entertainment industry anymore.
Of course, it stands to reason that Chen Zaitian is not qualified to receive the invitation to the Blue Dragon Film Awards, but one thing that has to be mentioned is that the Blue Dragon Film Awards have always been broadcast live by KBS TV, which is one of the other organizers of the awards ceremony.
When the deputy PD of the program team in charge of the live broadcast from KBS TV took the invitation card to the "IRIS" crew and gave it to him. Chen Zaitian knew that this was mostly related to the fact that Kim In-kyu, the president of KBS TV, was particularly "concerned" about him some time ago. Fortunately, there is still more than a week to go before the Blue Dragon Film Awards ceremony to be held on the 2nd of next month. He is not in a hurry, or his urgency is not on this.
Chen Zaitian finally watched Jessica's "Strong Heart" broadcast on the 17th a few days ago, and I have to say that although I knew it was fake. But listening to the girl I like in the show saying that she wants to marry such and such a man. It's not a good feeling that he is still the boss in his heart. And in the recent Monkey3 "Female Stars Most Wanted to Date on the Day of the First Snow" list. Jessica won the first place with a score of 30%, which more or less gave Chen Zaitian some ideas in his heart.
But before that, Chen Zaitian had to meet a request from Cui Shuhua first.
Zhao Wenyu and Cui Shuhua were appointed as assistants to Chen Zaitian. After more than a week of following and adapting, the two also quickly adapted to their work. After all, Cui Shuhua used to be a hotel director, and Zhao Wenyu was not simple, but in general, Chen Zaitian's acting activities were not as heavy as those normal artists.
Zhao Wenyu is okay, he is responsible for driving the two of them on weekdays, and then he follows Chen Zaitian and Cui Shuhua, he can do whatever he can, and it is not an exaggeration to count half a 'laborer'. As for Cui Shuhua, she is interested in Chen Zaitian's personal image design. To put it simply, it is Chen Zaitian's dress.
As an artist, especially a young artist, he should be relatively fashionable and glamorous in terms of image design and dress. Although Chen's casual clothes on weekdays are okay, and there is also a saying that people can wear anything, but that is obviously too casual for an artist's identity. It's not that it's more glamorous, but at least it's decent and handsome.
So after getting along with Chen Zaitian for more than a week, his friendly and casual temperament made Cui Shuhua lose all the mentality that he originally wanted to treat him as a 'boss', and completely treated Chen Zaitian's daily activities with the mentality of half an assistant and half an older sister taking care of a younger brother than himself. And after that, the first thing she did was to ask Chen Zaitian to change into a batch of new clothes.
"I really don't know why you women like shopping so much." Chen Zaitian said with a wry smile. Yesterday afternoon, he and Zhao Wenyu were already led by Cui Shuhua to the clothing store near Cheongdam-dong for an afternoon, and selected a few good brand casual clothes and pants for him, but at noon today, Cui Shuhua, who felt that she was far from buying enough yesterday, still wanted to take the two of them to the pedestrian street of Myeongdong, and looked at her appearance, and the interest was still vibrant.
"Ah, what do you kid know," Cui Shuhua glanced at him angrily, knowing Chen Zaitian's easy-going personality with his relatives, Cui Shuhua didn't have so many identity constraints on him, and of course Chen Zaitian himself was happy to communicate so casually. "I'm all thinking about your image, as an artist, of course you have to look good."
"Brother Wen Yu." Chen Zaitian looked at Zhao Wenyu with a faint and bitter look on his face. If Zhao Wenyu can help him say something, it should probably be good, then it will be 2 to 1.
As for Cui Shuhua's approach and request, he didn't feel anything inappropriate or uncomfortable, since he chose the two of them as his assistants, then the most basic trust Chen Zaitian could still do, and he already felt that the two of them were very good.
Zhao Wenyu glanced at him with a light smile, and then just about to say something to him and Cui Shuhua, Cui Shuhua was already glaring at him sideways, and muffled "um".
These days of getting along, Cui Shuhua also 'subdued' Zhao Wenyu, after all, she is a lady, and relatively speaking, Zhao Wenyu's personality on weekdays is also relatively quiet, except for watching or helping with a light smile on the side, she rarely expresses her opinions.
"Any comments?" Cui Shuhua looked at the two of them and said.
"It's nothing, I know Sister Shuhua, then let's go." Seeing this, Chen Zaitian hurriedly replied.
In the past few days, Chen Zaitian's schedule is very simple, he is filming "IRIS", although he does not have many scenes, and there are two directors to check it, but it takes some time to shoot, so that the time when he goes to the gym recently has to be arranged after filming.
In the past two days, there was also a short scene shooting during the daytime, so Cui Shuhua said that she took Chen Zaitian and Zhao Wenyu out to the store to buy clothes.
Zhao Wenyu drove, Chen Zaitian answered some questions from Cui Shuhua in the back of the car, and in more than 20 minutes, they came to the pedestrian street of Myeongdong.
Myeongdong is the fashion street that represents Seoul, and is home to large shopping malls and department stores. It is a shopper's paradise with well-known brand stores, world-class brand stores, large street stores, mid-to-low-end clothing stores, and daily necessities stores, as well as well-known brand cosmetics stores and fashion jewelry stores. For example, world-renowned brands such as ZARA, Forever21, and GAP have branches in Myeongdong, and there is an endless stream of foreign tourists who come here to shop. Not to mention Korean fashion brands.
The three of them walked around casually for a while, looked at a few mid-to-high-end clothing stores, and met some of them, but they didn't buy them right away, in Cui Shuhua's words, these are not in a hurry to buy first, and then go shopping, pick and choose, maybe there is a better one behind.
Chen Zaitian and Zhao Wenyu followed Cui Shuhua's side, and at this time, the three of them were surprised by the scene in front of them.
"Huh? What's over there? What are you doing? Cui Shuhua leaned up, leaned her neck forward slightly, and looked at a store in the distance surrounded by many people and asked in surprise.
"That's a 'SPAO' shop," Zhao Wenyu replied after a glance as he seemed to have good eyesight and reflexes. "I guess it's the opening ceremony."
“SPAP?” Chen Zaitian also took a strange look.
SPAO is a subordinate brand of E-land, which is a clothing brand operated by S.M and E-land. S.M will also make use of its own field and strength advantages to develop products in various related industries, such as fashion and fashion clothing, video stores, KTV practice studios, etc.
And since it is a clothing brand operated by S.M Company, it is natural that the stars endorsed by it are none other than artists from their own companies. TVXQ, Superjunior and Girls' Generation endorsements, etc. SPAO is one of the most popular brands for Korean girls and teenagers, and because of this, fans from all over the world come to the store, and you can often see groups of fans in the store.
However, Chen Zaitian obviously didn't know this information, and Cui Shuhua barely knew a little.
"Let's go over and see what's going on." Cui Shuhua said happily, "Just go there to have a look, although the public is a little more popular, maybe you can pick a few beautiful clothes there." With that, she took a step forward. There was no way, Chen Zaitian and Zhao Wenyu had no choice but to follow. (To be continued......)
