Chapter 1094: Go to the crew of "The Two-Faced King".
At about half past seven in the morning on December 16, Zhang Chengyuan drove to the dormitory of Girls' Generation, woke up Lin Yun'er, who was still sleeping on the bed, and then urged her to wash and change clothes.
In the car, Lin Yun'er yawned and said with some dissatisfaction: "Oppa, didn't you say that you only gathered at half past nine in the morning?" And it only takes about an hour to drive to Suwon Hwaseong, why do you wake me up so early? Even if I get another half hour of sleep, it's completely too late. I'm so tired these days, it's rare to get a good night's sleep today. ”
Zhang Chengyuan patted her head lightly and said: "Today you have time to rest, it's not bad to sleep half an hour less now, but you are completely new in the film industry, and you have to show enough humility and sincerity in your attitude, so you have to arrive there at least half an hour early, so as not to make people think that you don't respect your predecessors enough." ”
"So that's the case, then you really should have left early, but oppa, are you being dragged down by me, with your current status, you should be able to go later, right?"
"It's okay to be a little later than other actors, but you can't be late, although there are a lot of people who say I'm arrogant, but I've never been sloppy at work, and I've never played a big name on the set, of course, in the eyes of some people who are biased against me, it may not be the case, but I have a clear conscience."
"Well, I'm really dragged down, but oppa. I won't apologize or thank you. You're my brother. It's my man again, so it's natural for you to take care of me, and it's also right to shed blood for my injuries. Lin Yun'er said with a grin.
Zhang Chengyuan said angrily: "You girl is getting thicker and thicker-skinned, you can say such things so comfortably, fortunately, the person you are with is me, not other men, otherwise if I hear your words, I will definitely be scared away by you." ”
"Just because I know you won't be scared away by me. That's why I'm saying that, and how can there be any other man in the world who can make me say that but you? Lin Yun'er continued to smile.
"Well, don't talk about this, Yun'a, have you seriously practiced acting skills recently?"
"Yes, of course I did, I finally took over a movie thanks to you, how dare I not prepare seriously? Didn't you see that I haven't even had time to send you sexy videos lately, have you? The time saved is spent on acting practice. But oppa, it's the first time I've taken over a court drama. No experience, although spent a lot of time practicing. But it still doesn't seem to have made much progress, and my sisters think that my tone when I read my lines is a little awkward, so you have to take some time out to teach me in the future, otherwise I will definitely mess up this play, but it's not good to lose your face. "You must know that she received this drama because of Zhang Chengyuan's recommendation, and everyone knows that she is his sister.
"Why didn't you say it earlier? It's almost time to start shooting. Zhang Chengyuan was slightly displeased, and he has always been rigorous in his work.
Lin Yun'er said: "I'm not afraid of disturbing you, you have to take care of Sister Youli and the baby recently, and you are busy partying with your sisters, so how can you have time to teach me acting skills?" If I bother you, you may still be angry with me for ruining your good deeds. ”
"What nonsense, am I that kind of person? Forget it, it's useless to blame you now. Well, from tonight onwards, I will teach you one to two hours of acting or play against you every night, and strive to make a leap in your acting skills in a short period of time, at least to meet the requirements of the director. ”
"I think it's better to meet your requirements, I heard Sister Youli, Sister Zhen'er, Sister Taixi and other sisters say that your requirements for the acting skills of your partner actors are much higher than those of the director, and if you can't be satisfied, you will often ask the director to reshoot."
Zhang Chengyuan said: "It's good that you know, so you have to work harder in the future, I won't relax your requirements for you just because you are my sister." ”
"I don't want you to relax my requirements for me, I was finally able to co-star in a movie with you, and I hope you can take my acting skills to the next level, if you don't be strict with me, I'm still anxious with you."
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "Don't just say it nicely, if you can't stand my strict requirements then, don't blame me for criticizing and punishing you." ”
"If I really can't stand it, then you can punish it." Lin Yun'er patted her chest and said.
"By the way, oppa, in the process of practicing acting, I always can't play the dignified and noble temperament that a queen should have, I wonder if it's because I'm young, inexperienced, and I'm not a woman but a girl?"
Zhang Chengyuan said disapprerovingly: "The inability to perform a noble and dignified temperament has a lot to do with your young age and little experience, but what does it have to do with whether you are a mature woman?" Yunbao, do you want to use this as an excuse to ask for something from me? ”
"Oppa, you are really like a torch, you can guess my mind as soon as you hear it, I do have something to ask of you." After a slight pause, she continued, "Oppa, turn me into a woman, right?" I think that when I become a woman, my temperament will definitely change, and it may be easier to play the image of a queen. ”
Zhang Chengyuan was not surprised, he had already guessed her idea, and just sighed slightly: "Yun'er, why do you always fall in love with this kind of thing?" ”
"It's normal, the more you can't get it, the more you want it, and if it's you, it will be the same! And you promised me last time that when we were alone again, you would have me. ”
Zhang Chengyuan pondered for a while and sighed: "Well, this movie shooting, we should have a lot of opportunities to be alone at night, and then find a suitable time to do this." Since he had promised before, he didn't want to drag his feet on this matter, anyway, he had no psychological obstacles to her.
Lin Yun'er smiled: "Oppa, you should have done this a long time ago, I wasted a year's time, and besides, don't find any suitable time, I think tonight will be very good." We're not going back to Seoul tonight. Find a hotel near the set. Well, don't look for it, the crew should have booked a room for us, and when you sneak into my room in the dead of night, we'll do it. ”
"Okay, just tonight." He has always been efficient, and since he has made up his mind to do this, it is better to do it as soon as possible.
"Just tonight. oppa, you can't go back? ”
"Am I the kind of person who would go back on it? As long as there's nothing more important tonight, then I'll be sure to look for you in your room. Zhang Chengyuan assured.
At 8:45, Jang Sung-won and Lim Yoona arrived at the Hwaseong Haeonggung area, where the crew gathered this morning, which has always been one of the preferred filming locations for Lee's Joseon Dynasty court dramas, and one of the permanent filming locations for "The Two-Faced King" in the next two or three months, because more than half of the film's scenes will take place in the palace.
This place Zhang Chengyuan came once a few years ago, but not because he had filmed here, but because he had visited the class here, when Li Zhen and Jun Huibin starred in the TV series "King and Me" in 07. He had worked here for a while, and he had come here to visit them. This time I will come back here. Zhang Chengyuan, who has always had an excellent memory, immediately remembered the scene of the first visit.
He remembered that he had also secured Jun Hye-bin's contract at that time, and asked her to promise to merge her personal studio into JSW, and now this studio has long existed in name only, but as her relationship with Zhang Chengyuan has become closer and closer over the years, like a close relative, she has long been free of her independence, and all the work is taken according to the recommendation of Zhang Chengyuan or JSW, because she has realized that she is not the material for business, so she is too lazy to bother anymore, so as not to be thankless.
After looking at the environment of Hwaseong Palace for a while, Zhang Chengyuan took Lin Yun'er to the gathering point of "The Double-Faced King" at this time - the square in front of a certain palace, and then met with director Qiu Changmin, screenwriter Huang Zhaoyin and other crew members, as for the other main actors, because there is still nearly an hour before the gathering time, they have not come for the time being.
Director Qiu Changmin, a middle-aged man in his forties, has directed several popular or well-received film works, although he is not a big-name director, but he is also a little famous. However, "The Two-Faced King", a large-scale production with an investment of nearly 10 billion won, was originally not his turn to direct, but to Kang Woo-suk, a great director who had directed high-grossing films such as "Sebi Island" and "Korean Peninsula".
It's just that Kang Youshuo didn't know which tendon went wrong, and he wanted to replace the original male and female leading actors Zhang Chengyuan and Lim Yoon-a, and replace them with the queen actor Zheng Jae-young of his movie and a certain actress with better acting skills, which intensified the conflict with the investor, so it was abandoned.
Because in the eyes of investors, although the 10-year Blue Dragon Award actor Zheng Zaiyong is indeed very good, Zhang Chengyuan is obviously better and has more box office appeal, you must know that he is now a national actor recognized by the whole South Korean people, and more importantly, Zhang Chengyuan is a big financier, and his JSW company is one of the investors behind this movie, even if the entire crew has been changed, he can't be replaced, so under the trade-off, the big director Kang Youshuo was replaced very "gorgeously".
Kang Youshuo obviously underestimated his authority and underestimated Zhang Chengyuan's influence in the film and television industry now, but he may not care about being replaced, firstly, he is not worried about having no movies to make, and secondly, Jang Chengyuan has always been a powerful and very assertive actor, and he will never play his role completely according to the director's intentions, if he cooperates with Zhang Chengyuan, he will definitely not be able to control Zhang Chengyuan, so it is okay not to cooperate, and this may be the fundamental reason why he wanted to replace Zhang Chengyuan in the first place.
As for wanting to replace Lin Yun'er, she may feel that her acting skills are not excellent, and she has no relevant costume acting experience, so she is not a very suitable candidate. This is not selfish, it is estimated that today's director Qiu Changmin also has this idea secretly, but he didn't dare to bring it up because he didn't dare to offend the investor and Zhang Chengyuan, but how did they know that Zhang Chengyuan was able to teach his partner actress, with him, even if Lin Yuna can't shine in this play, she can act decently, which will never affect the shooting quality of the film, and her high popularity may attract some fans to watch this movie in the future.
