295. Chance

After being busy for a while, I finally got free again, and I'm sorry for the dismal update situation in April. In May, the tape will try to return to normal updates, so please pay attention to it greatly, and the above ......

……

Just like Son Seok-woo said, whether there is an agent or not, Lee Jun-hyuk's life and rest will not change, and after Kim Jung-hyun signed the contract, she is now more like an OL of an ordinary company than an agent, because every day she goes to work not by Lee Jun-hyuk's side, but at the temporary headquarters of BH company. The things he dealt with were not related to Lee Jun-hyuk, but he was desperately familiarizing himself with all kinds of knowledge required for agent training.

As for Lee Jun-hyuk, he is now fully engaged in his thesis writing, compared to the university graduation thesis two years ago, this thesis has given him a lot of pressure, after all, this is the graduation thesis of Columbia University Ph.D., for Lee Jun-hyuk, many of the fields involved above are something he has not yet understood, so if he wants to write this thesis well, he must first master these fields that he has not yet mastered.

Lee Jun-hyuk in earnest, his concentration is very amazing, since he started writing his thesis, he has entered a state of isolation, every day except for the morning routine exercise, the rest of the time is completely devoted to the sea of books, even Christmas, he has forgotten.

Originally, in Lee Jun-hyuk's opinion, there should be no problem with the first draft of his paper in about a month, but after starting to prepare, he found that according to his usual requirements for himself. Estimated a month later. Halfway through this paper is already quite good progress.

In fact, with Lee Jun-hyuk's mind. As long as he was slightly suspicious, he could see that this thesis could not be completed at the graduate level, but he trusted his supervisor too much, and he had not been in school for a few days, so he subconsciously thought that this was Columbia University's master's thesis, and these fields that he had not been exposed to were also caused by his lack of on-campus study.

So, it's just a mistake. Lee Jun Hyuk kept writing.

Lee Jun-hyuk's super-concentrated state lasted for a full week, and after a week, he returned to his usual appearance.

Of course, this is not to say that his spirit is overdrawn, but a phone call from Lee Byung-hun that makes him have to come out of his concentrated state.

The news brought by Lee Byung-hun is a very good opportunity for Lee Jun-hyuk, and it can even be said to be a pie-in-the-sky thing.

It turned out that Jung Woo-sung, who played the good guy in the movie "Good Guy, Bad Guy, Weird Guy", in which Lee Byung-hun participated in the filming, was in horseback riding training before participating in the shooting. Accidentally fell under the horse and fractured his right lower leg. Achilles tendon tear, according to the feedback from the hospital, it will take three months just to resume walking, and if you want the Achilles tendon to heal, you can shoot action movies again, and I am afraid you will have to continue to do at least half a year of recovery training.

As a result, director Kim Ji-yun had to consider looking for a replacement actor immediately, because neither the budget of the film nor the other two leading actors could wait so long for a new shoot. After all, as top actors, Song Kang-ho and Lee Byung-hun are very busy, especially Lee Byung-hun, in early March, he had to fly to the United States to shoot "Special Forces", so the time left for Kim Ji-yun is very limited. Finding a replacement actor is an imminent matter.

In fact, being able to co-star in a film with Song Kang-ho and Lee Byung-hun is such a good thing, it should be an opportunity that many actors dream of, no matter how you think about it, there is no way to fall on Lee Jun-hyuk, even if he has Lee Byung-hun's recommendation, even if he has a good relationship with Kang Di-gyu, but this is the case in the Korean film industry, qualifications, identity and fame, only when all these are in place, it is possible to join such a large investment in commercial films.

But Jin Zhiyun's incident this time is very special, because this is a Western-style cowboy commercial film, there are a lot of gunfights, horseback riding, and action scenes in the play, and the good guy originally played by Zheng Yucheng happens to use the most difficult shotgun, plus a large number of horse scenes, which makes most of the actors unable to join the filming without training.

In addition, there are even more situations that make Jin Zhiyun scratch his head. In the script he wrote, the three-legged stand is the biggest sale of this play, but now Zheng Yucheng's injury has suddenly broken this balance. If the aura of the newly added actor is suppressed by the other two and makes the whole scene lame, then even with the addition of Lee Byung-hun and Song Kang-ho, as a purely commercial film, this movie may not be successful.

No matter which of the above two conditions is met, there are very few people who can meet them, let alone actors who can meet these two conditions together. Therefore, the matter of finding a replacement actor has become a big problem.

And just when Kim Ji-yun was at a loss, Lee Byung-hun mentioned Lee Jun-hyuk's name and introduced in detail Lee Jun-hyuk's movement ability when training himself.

And after hearing Li Bingxian's words, Jin Zhiyun's eyes lit up, as a friend of Jiang Digui, he had heard of Li Junhyuk's name more than once from Jiang Digui, and after his subordinate Luo Hongzhen filmed "The Chaser" this time, he was full of praise for Li Junhyuk. Because in the face of the old drama bone Kim Yun-seok, Lee Jun-hyuk's aura is not weak at all, and even to a certain extent, in the movie, Lee Jun-hyuk's aura also overwhelms Kim Yoon-seok.

After checking Lee Jun-hyuk's acting skills again by phone to Kang Di-gyu, Kim Ji-yun immediately decided to let Lee Jun-hyuk take over the role of Jung Woo-sung and immediately participate in the filming.

In this way, without Lee Jun-hyuk knowing anything, he was set to take over the role of Jung Woo-sung and play, "Good Guy".

In this process, whether it is director Kim Ji-woon or Kang Di-gyu, they all ignore one issue, that is, Lee Jun-hyuk, who starred as a substitute, his personal wishes.

Of course, in their opinion, this can't be regarded as a problem at all, not to mention that Lee Jun-hyuk is still a newcomer, that is, many first-line actors who have debuted for more than ten years, after knowing the matter of replacing actors, they all began to ask for relationships to fill in, because being able to co-star in a movie with Lee Byung-hun and Song Kang-ho, the two major actors, is undoubtedly a good opportunity to climb to the sky, so habitually, they also think that when Lee Jun-hyuk received the news, He would have happily accepted the invitation.

If he directly asked his assistant to call Lee Jun-hyuk according to Kim Ji-yun's idea, maybe there would be a situation beyond his expectations, that is, Lee Jun-hyuk refused the play. Of course, with Lee Jun-hyuk's tactfulness, it will definitely be very, very tactful, and it is impossible for Kim Ji-yun to find any faulty refusal.

This is not Lee Junhyuk's hypocrisy, but for this kind of commercial film, Lee Junhyuk at this stage is not particularly interested, because in his opinion, fame or something is far less attractive than the role in the movie, and he starred in the movie, not to become a star, but to experience a different life by playing various different roles.

But Kim Ji-woon's film happens to be Lee Jun-hyuk's least favorite kind of commercial blockbuster, and the selling point of the whole film is that in addition to the previous three stars, there are all kinds of big-scene action scenes in the western style. And the good guy played by Lee Jun-hyuk has nothing outstanding except for various cool actions. So according to Lee Jun-hyuk's personal preference, he will definitely not participate in this film.

Fortunately, Lee Byung-hun, who introduced Lee Jun-hyuk to Kim Ji-woon, was very clear about Lee Jun-hyuk's character and purpose, so after Kim Ji-woon decided to replace Jung Woo-sung by Lee Jun-hyuk, he took the initiative to take over the matter of practicing Lee Jun-hyuk.

When Lee Byung-hun informed Lee Jun-hyuk of this matter, he used a little bit of skill, he knew Lee Jun-hyuk's temperament too well, so it went very smoothly, and Lee Jun-hyuk took over the role...... (To be continued......)
