On the second day after the Qinglong Film Festival, as soon as it was dawn, Zhang Chengyuan drove back early to the film crew that was still fighting in Nanyuan City. Although the director was not in a hurry to urge him to go back to filming, he still quite consciously returned to the film crew as soon as possible, after all, the other actors are now filming, and he alone can often ask for leave to return to Seoul, even if this is what he has earned with hard work and excellent performance, but if he behaves too much, it will definitely make people feel uncomfortable and affect his relationship with other members of the crew.

Moreover, he also wants to continue to make a good impression on the director, so that he can smoothly ask for leave again in the future.

When Zhang Chengyuan returned to the crew, it happened that the crew was having lunch, so he handed over the food he bought in Seoul at 6 o'clock in the morning to the drama manager, asked him to distribute it to everyone, and took a copy to Han Chaeyoung and ate with her.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Sister Caiying, here you go, this is the chicken skewer I specially bought for you, and it has been grilled according to your taste." In fact, Han Caiying prefers to eat beef, pork and other meat foods, but it is not so easy to buy roasted beef and pork belly on the streets of Seoul early in the morning, so he had to buy a few chicken skewers to talk about his heart, how to say that chicken is also a type of meat.

Han Caiying glanced at Zhang Chengyuan and said enviously: "As long as you, a drama madman, can return to Seoul so easily, unless we have something very important, we can't leave." As he spoke, he picked up a string of chicken skewers and ate it, without saying a word of thanks.

Zhang Chengyuan smiled: "It's also very easy, as long as you are crazy like me." ”

Han Caiying glared at Zhang Chengyuan and said, "Then I'll stay in the crew all the time." If you want to eat anything in the future, let you bring it to me. Now her relationship with Zhang Chengyuan is a little closer than when the TV series first started, so there is no need to be too polite with him.

After eating, after not resting for long, the director beckoned the actors to start preparing to start filming, and then it was time for Jang Sung-won, a drama maniac, to speed up the filming process of the entire film crew and "destroy" everyone's nerves.

Days like this went day after day, until the day before Christmas, December 24, when the crew gave the crew members a holiday and let them go back to Seoul for Christmas, and then it was temporarily stopped. This is because the filming progress has been much faster than expected, and it doesn't matter if you have a day or two off, and "Haojie Chunxiang" will be broadcast on the TV station on January 3 next year, and the crew is also preparing to hold a new drama press conference on the 26th to promote the new drama, which can only be carried out when returning to Seoul.

For the director's great compassion, the crew is very happy, they have been bored for a long time during this time, and now they can finally relax.

And although Jang Sung-won can often take leave to return to Seoul, he can have more holidays, and it is a holiday during Christmas, how can he not accept it happily? It is important to know that with these two more days, he can do a lot more of what he wants to do.

On the evening of the 24th, he returned to Seoul, and then immediately went to Xiao Jing's house, picked her up with her sister Zheng Xiuyan, and went out to play in the street. This time he learned his previous lesson, dressed up as Santa Claus, with gray and thick eyebrows and beard sticking to his face, thinking that no one would recognize him at all when there would be many Santa Claus on every lively street.

When he finished dressing up, looking at himself in the mirror, he felt very proud and funny, and his heart was protruding, and he immediately took a picture of his current appearance with his mobile phone and sent it to his sisters and sisters to enjoy, when he sent it to Cheng Youli, he suddenly thought that his Youli sister had no notice today, and he didn't have to go to class, she must be very leisurely, so he called her to ask her out, and wanted her to play with him.

Cheng Youli was in a panic, and after receiving a call from Zhang Chengyuan, he heard him say that he was dressed up as Santa Claus to play on the street, and he felt that this idea was good, and he was immediately tempted.

That night, Zhang Chengyuan, Cheng Youli, Zheng Xiuyan, and Xiao Jing all dressed up as Santa Claus, jumping around on the streets of Seoul, having a lot of fun, and playing until more than ten o'clock in the evening, Zhang Chengyuan felt that it was too late, so he drove Xiao Jing and Zheng Xiuyan back to Zheng's house, and he and Cheng Youli dated alone for an hour or two, and then spent a romantic night.

The next day, at nine o'clock in the evening, Jang Sung-won came to Lee Hyori's house, and as he thought, the busy Lee Hyori still hadn't returned home. She has been quite busy this year, and Zhang Chengyuan is really worried that she will be tired one day. Although the "health skills" he taught to the four of Li Xiaoli have long been practiced by them to the point that they can operate automatically, which can enhance their physique and improve their body's recovery ability to a certain extent, it is only the most superficial Taoist exercise after all, and it can't forge people into robots as tireless and untired. Therefore, if this continues, it is difficult to guarantee that one day Lee Hyori will not fall ill from exhaustion.

In the past, he could often use his true qi to push the palace for Lee Hyori to invigorate blood and restore his physical condition, but now he can't come back often when he is out filming but can't do it anymore, so he is even more worried about Lee Hyori's physical condition.

Zhang Chengyuan sat on the sofa and watched TV, and waited for two or three hours before he heard the familiar footsteps of Li Xiaoli and the sound of the door opening. So he immediately stepped forward to greet her, took her handbag, helped her take off her coat and leather boots for her, then put on her slippers, and carried her to the sofa to rest in his arms, and helped her gently massage her.

After resting for a while, Lee Hyo-ri was in good spirits and asked, "Why are you here today?" ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "The Christmas crew is on holiday, I will come back, yesterday I also played with Sister Youli dressed as Santa Claus in Gangnam/District, Hongdae and other places for a night, and I came to look for you at night, but I didn't wait for you to go home, Sister Xiaoli, where did you go?" ”

Li Xiaoli said: "I practiced the script in the company last night, and I practiced too late, so I fell asleep directly in the company. ”

"TV scripts? I heard Youli say, you just took over a TV series? ”

Last night, he heard Cheng Youli say that Lee Hyori had just taken over a TV series not long ago, because it was the first time to star in a TV series, Lee Hyori was excited on the one hand, and worried that he would not act well, so that the pressure increased dramatically, and he hadn't slept well for many days. Cheng Youli was very worried, so he asked Zhang Chengyuan to take advantage of the two-day holiday to help Li Xiaoli relieve pressure and adjust his mentality as soon as possible. That night, Zhang Chengyuan and Cheng Youli came to find Li Xiaoli together, but unfortunately they waited for one night, but they didn't see her come back.

During the day the next day, Sung You-ri wanted to go to the church to worship and left first, and Zhang Sung-won felt that Lee Hyo-ri should not go home during the day, so he went to the film crew where Lee Jin was filming the reversal drama to visit the class, and then went to see Ok Joo-hyun, and after having dinner with them, because he was worried about Lee Hyo-ri, he went back to Lee Hyo-ri's house to wait for her to come back, but fortunately, he still let him wait.

After hearing Jang Sung-won's words, Lee Hyori nodded and said, "Yes, I took over the filming of a TV series called "Clover". ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Show me the script!" Without waiting for Lee Hyo-ri to nod, he took out the script directly from Lee Hyo-ri's handbag and read it seriously. For his behavior, Lee Hyori naturally did not think about it. She leaned on Zhang Chengyuan's arms, squinted for a while, and immediately fell asleep.

Zhang Chengyuan watched it quickly, and roughly read the entire script in less than 20 minutes, and as soon as he finished reading it, he felt that the plot of this TV series was too old-fashioned, with no new ideas at all, and the entangled love between the four heroes and heroines made people very depressed to watch. If it was placed four or five years ago, when the audience's taste had not been raised, it might still be so-so, but now that it is becoming more and more innovative and changeable, it is really too outdated, and this year's "The Crown Prince's First Love" in which he and Cheng Youli participated in it almost ended miserably because the plot was too cliché?

With the strong popularity of Cha Tae-hyun and Sung Yo-ri, neither of them can grasp the audience's attention, and Jang Sung-won doesn't believe that Lee Hyo-ri can do it, even if she has the sexy charm that makes all Korean men crazy. But today's TV series ratings are obviously not something that one or two big stars can control.

Jang Sung-won was about to share the benefits and disadvantages with Lee Hyo-ri, but found that she had fallen asleep tiredly, so he put down the script in his hand, gently picked her up, and wanted to put her on the bed to sleep. As soon as he picked it up, Li Xiaoli woke up, said "um", and asked, "Have you finished reading?" What do you think? She still attaches great importance to Zhang Chengyuan's opinions, and he usually lets the four sisters see a lot of magic.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Let's talk about it tomorrow, sister, you can get a good night's sleep first." He knew that as long as he said what he thought in his heart, Lee Hyori would definitely sleep very unsteadily tonight.

Li Xiaoli said: "Hurry up, I want to hear it!" Listen before you go to sleep. She seems to care too much about this TV series, she can't wait to hear Jang Sung-won's opinions, maybe she hopes to hear Jang Sung-won's words of encouragement, so as to gain strength that can boost her confidence and make her persevere.

It's just that Zhang Chengyuan is going to disappoint her this time, he feels that this is not the time to comfort Li Xiaoli with good words, and said: "Sister Xiaoli, if you can, I hope you can quit the crew of this TV series." He spoke very slowly and softly, for fear that it would make Lee Hyori unhappy.

Li Xiaoli said: "Do you think it's bad? The tone was unexpectedly not too surprised, it seemed that he had already been mentally prepared, after all, a little clue could be seen from Zhang Chengyuan's face.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "It's really not good, the worst thing is that the role you want to play is very different from the public's impression of you, I'm afraid that as soon as the TV series is broadcast, most people will feel extremely surprised and disappointed, and the Lee Hyori in their hearts is not, nor can it be a rustic appearance." "The public is disappointed, and the ratings are naturally not much higher.

Lee Hyo-ri smiled bitterly: "I thought that the personality of this character was very similar to mine, so I would be very suitable for playing this role." ”

"It's a bit like that, it's all straightforward, spicy, and kind. However, this will only make you more comfortable playing the role, but it will not help the ratings much, in my opinion, whether a TV series can succeed or not, whether the plot can attract the audience is the most important. Sister, listen to me, quit! Zhang Chengyuan persuaded tactfully.

Lee Hyo-ri said: "Impossible, this TV series is produced and filmed by our DSP company itself, and we have signed a broadcast agreement with SBS TV, and the company and the TV station will definitely not let me quit," as an artist of DSP company, Lee Hyo-ri can't go against the company's wishes, after all, the company has made her popular, and she can't help but make some sacrifices for the company. Moreover, if she quits, maybe the company will immediately let Cheng Youli, who is now idle at home, top.

Zhang Chengyuan said helplessly: "That's going to be filmed, but Sister Xiaoli, you have to be fully psychologically prepared, maybe a lot of media will meet the opportunity to hype up trouble, which will hit your popularity and make you feel very uncomfortable." In Jang Sung-won's opinion, Lee Hyo-ri and her agency really can't afford to offend SBS TV, and if there is no irresistible reason, Lee Hyo-ri can only play hard. Moreover, Lee Hyori is a singer after all, even if she can't get ahead in the film and television industry, it won't have much impact on her career.

Li Xiaoli said: "Don't worry too much, my sister knows it!" Also, you stinky boy, you just said that I was spicy, do you want to beg for a beating? ”

"I just said casually, sister, don't take it seriously, besides, didn't I also praise you for being kind? Sister, how can you just find fault with me. Seeing that Li Xiaoli's mood was improving, Zhang Chengyuan was naturally willing to play with her.
