Chapter 636: Boot Ceremony
The two-day and one-night audience tour finally came to an end, and when it came to Zixi's performance in it, Jiang Hudong's words could completely encapsulate "the lack of sense of ability and the lack of understanding of expressing oneself". Although Zixi has worked hard to do a good job, he is not a professional MC after all, and he can't grasp the key to this kind of variety show. Especially for two days and one night, there are the rest of the MCs who cooperate tacitly, Zixi can't keep up with their rhythm, so he will naturally be marginalized.
After the broadcast of the two-day and one-night audience tour after the incident, the audience also felt the same way. "Zixi often interacts with the students of Chinese music, but lacks the ability to be an MC, and cannot lead this group of very talented students to highlight themselves, even inferior to the students of the women's judo team of the Sports University."
Some viewers compared Zixi's accidental appearance in "We Are Married", "In 'We Are Married', Zixi is more like a competent MC, who very well resolved the little embarrassment and unnaturalness between Jung Hyung-don and Girls' Generation, and even brought the 'newlyweds' who met for the first time to the scene, making the show very interesting." But in two days and one night, Zixi did not play any role at all, and the only highlight was to perform on the same stage with the students of Chinese music. ”
Regardless of what others commented, even Zixi herself felt that she was not good enough. After returning to Seoul after two days and one night of shooting, Zixi went to Jiang Hudong's barbecue restaurant and asked Jiang Hudong for advice.
"Actually, you're doing pretty well, it's your first time playing as an MC. But you don't know how to behave in front of the camera and have fun interactions with the rest of the MCs. Jiang Hudong ate the fragrant barbecue and continued: "Didn't the writer give you a script and let you take the position of the prince?" As long as you do it well, we will grasp it and make it a topic centered on you. It's a pity that you've been hiding behind and rarely communicating with our MCs, so it's hard for us to cooperate with your performance. ”
"I also know the way, but at that time, because I was the team leader, I was only thinking about how to build a good relationship with that group of students and communicate with them more, where could I take care of so much?" Zixi was also very bitter, the writer gave him a script, but he didn't know how to do it at all, without him, it would be difficult for Jiang Hudong and them to cooperate.
"Huh!" Seeing Zixi's frustrated and annoyed appearance, Jiang Hudong smiled and comforted: "It's okay, everyone doesn't have much experience this time, and they have to take care of the team members, so they are a little too busy." If we don't cooperate with you, we are all responsible. ”
"I now know that it is not so easy to be an MC of a variety show, it is not easier than an actor at all." Of course, Zixi knew that Jiang Hudong was comforting himself, but after experiencing it himself, he knew that as an MC, to mobilize the rhythm of the show and mobilize the audience's emotions, it was not just a matter of moving his mouth and talking. Liu Jae-seok and Jiang Hudong can become the two mountains in the Korean variety show MC industry, both of which are formed by their accumulation of more than ten years of experience, and doing things can never be achieved overnight.
After the production of the show, it was not a very successful success, but it was a good experience no matter how you say it, at least that's what Zixi thought. What's more important is that this show made Zixi fully realize that MC is not so easy to do, and he is not omnipotent. But to be an MC, or a successful MC, is not something that can be learned through imitation or practice by watching a few episodes of variety shows. These require not only a flexible mind and sensitive observation, but also the accumulation of countless experiences.
Zixi has not much time to take this vacation, but he still has a lot of unfinished schedules, and the most important thing is the opening ceremony of [IRIS]. To take care of Zixi's filming schedule for [Twilight: New Moon], the crew will not officially start filming until April from the location of Japan, followed by Hungary and China's SH. Because director Kim Kyu-tae completely used the filming method of the movie this time, it is said that [IRIS] will be edited into a movie version for release, and it is impossible to shoot episode by episode according to the script. So the script has been completed after countless revisions, and the main actors such as Zi-hee and Kim Tae-hee have also got the complete script.
In order to solemnize the event, KBS TV specially invited all the famous media in Seoul to attend the opening ceremony, which not only showed the importance of this annual drama, but also reflected the value of Zixi.
The opening ceremony was not held indoors, but was held in a school stadium, which is also the training ground for the first episode of the first episode, when the actor Kim Hyun-jun and his friend Chen Siyu were still training for the special attack team.
Of course, the media reporters who received the notice were very enthusiastic, and they flocked to the school playground notified by KBS TV to interview first-hand information. This is Zixi's return to Korean film and television after four years, and she has worked with Kim Tae-hee for the fourth time, which is already a very good topic. Especially recently, Zixi has frequently appeared in ace variety shows on major TV stations, and it can be seen that Zixi has not forgotten Korean fans because she has become a Hollywood superstar.
"Director Kim Kyu-tae, there's no need to dress like this, right?" Zixi looked at the camouflage military uniform handed over by the stylist, the helmet, the backpack dagger and the armed belt, and the prop K1 automatic rifle, and said exaggeratedly to Director Kim Kyu-tae who was smiling on the side.
Jung Jun-ho, who was holding the same equipment beside him, also nodded, looked at Kim Tae-hee and Kim So-yeon, who had just changed their clothes, and said, "Yes! This is the opening ceremony, is it a bit nondescript for us to dress like this and stand with them? ”
Indeed, as Jung Jun-ho said, Kim Tae-hee and Kim So-yeon are both professional girls dressed in white shirts and black suits, and although both girls are holding a prop pistol, they can't hide the dazzling beauty at all. But as the first and second male protagonists, they are wearing camouflage military uniforms, and they really look very foiled.
Director Kim Kyu-tae looked at Kim Tae-hee and Kim So-yeon's beautiful clothes with great satisfaction, and said lightly to Jung Jun-ho: "Although this is a start-up ceremony, in order to cooperate with this shooting, I discussed with director Kang Di-gyu and specially invited the active country. Sergeant Major, train you in the use of firearms and tactical movements. Not only will Zi-hee and you have to be trained, but Kim Seung-wooxi, Kim Tae-hee, and Kim So-yeonxi will also have to undergo short-term training to understand the precautions for using firearms. At this start-up ceremony, we will let a Yuanshi give you an on-site guide and shoot the first shot. ”
Zixi and Jung Junhao glanced at each other, and they only now knew about it. When I received the notice, I was only told that the first shot would be filmed at the start-up ceremony, but I didn't expect to invite active military personnel to guide on the spot. If you were to be reprimanded in front of so many media reporters by a sergeant who had been found out of nowhere, your face would be lost.
"Hey, hey! What will you do this time? Kim Tae-hee chuckled slyly.
The director said so, Zixi and Jung Junhao can't wear it if they want to. glared fiercely at Kim Tae-hee, who was beautiful and moving, and smiling, Zi-hee could only go in and change his clothes with a gloomy face.
"Why do you think there's a kick-off ceremony here? What does director Kim Kyu-tae want to do? A reporter wearing a thick down jacket who wanted to shrink his whole body into his clothes asked his colleagues around him: "Look over there, is that group of soldiers real or fake?" ”
"This should be an extra, right? I didn't hear that so many countries would be mobilized. The army came to participate in a TV series. A reporter replied uncertainly.
"It's hard to say." Another reporter said: "This time, KBS used real games, helicopters, and missiles, and spent more than 20 billion won. It's not surprising that Jun came back to assist in the shooting. ”
"Of course it's not surprising anymore, please a few countries. The army came to assist in the shooting. If the United States makes a movie, the entire military base can be lent out, not to mention aircraft carriers, F22, Apache and M1A2 main battle tanks. A reporter with a natural face said: "Especially this time I invited Zixi to be the leading actor, if you deal with it casually, do you still want Zixi to have the next chance to star?" I'm afraid Zixi's fans won't agree. ”
As the reporter said, in this corner of the school stadium, which was used as a military training ground, there were more than a dozen people in military uniforms. Army "soldiers". Although it seems that the military discipline is loose and there is no formation at all, the military uniforms and equipment, as well as the military vehicles and armored vehicles parked on the side as props, can still bluff people, and also make many reporters who rushed here curious and puzzled.
Under the expectant gaze of media reporters, the main actors such as Zi-hee and Kim Tae-hee all walked out of the temporary waiting room. Zixi and Jung Jun-ho are one country. Military uniform, carrying a marching backpack and holding a K1 rifle in his hand. Kim Tae-hee and Kim So-yeon are professional suits, and Kim Seung-woo is wearing the military uniform of a captain of the Korean People's Army, with neat hair, smooth and shiny, and mosquitoes will fall when they step on it, and they collectively appeared in front of reporters.
The opening ceremony is not a press conference, although reporters are allowed to watch the scene, but it is only to watch and take pictures, and they cannot be interviewed until it is completed. So even if he saw Zixi come out, the reporter could only watch from a distance and press the shutter of the camera in his hand at the same time.
A man who wears the rank of Yuanshi. Jun walked over and gave a standard military salute to Zixi, Zheng Junhao and the group of "soldiers" who had already lined up, and said loudly: "Loyalty!" ”
Yuan Shi saw that this group of miscellaneous soldiers just returned a military salute very casually, without any military discipline and military appearance, his brows furrowed, and he roared with a dark face: "I'm Li Yunzhe Yuanshi, look at what you look like, are you ruffians and hooligans?" Is there any sense of honor that you once had as a soldier? Although you have all retired, you must not forget that you are a country. The glory of the army cannot be forgotten as a country. Duties of the Army. Now give me aloud your rank in service. ”
The extras invited were really all retired soldiers, and the highest rank was actually a sergeant. I don't know if this is intentional or coincidental by director Kim Kyu-tae, who reported their former military ranks one by one, which also aroused their sense of honor as former soldiers, and the standards for standing up and saluting are also a lot more standard.
"Loyalty! Lee Yoon-cheol Wonshi, Captain Jung Jun-ho reports to you! "Don't look at Zheng Junhao's youth, in fact, he is forty years old, and he has been retired for more than ten years.
Zixi is the last one, under the displeased gaze of Lee Yun-cheol Yuanshi, he is also very embarrassed, and the most reluctant can only bite the bullet, under the gaze of many media reporters, he performed an American-style military salute, and shouted loudly: "Li Yunhao Yuanshi, the reserve second lieutenant Zixi of the Air Guard of the United States National Guard." ”
"Uh" Now Li Yunhao Yuanshi was dumbfounded. He has been in the army for almost seven or eight years, and he usually doesn't pay much attention to entertainment news, and Zixi has not made his debut before joining the army. Although I have also heard of the name Zixi, I know that he is a very popular actor, but I didn't notice that he is still an officer in the US Army Reserve.
"Hello sir! Lee Yoon-ho, a veteran of the South Korean Army, salutes you! "As the saying goes: the official level crushes people to death. Although Zixi has no command relationship with Lee Yoon-cheol, they are soldiers from different countries. But the United States and South Korea are military alliances, and military officers of the same rank have become accustomed to saluting US military officers. What's more, Zixi is a second lieutenant officer, two levels higher than Li Yunhao Yuanshi.
Li Yunhao Yuanshi, who was still aggressive just now, was frightened by Zixi's military rank, and looked at Zixi's gaze and dodged. This made the reporters around him feel funny and embarrassed. Why did you find such a stunned young man to come back, don't you know who you are facing?
PS: Xie Lu, Xie Yingxiang's reward and support, with your encouragement, is the source of the code word. Thank you so much!!! As for the four 12,000 update tickets, there is really nothing that can be done, and now insisting on two chapters a day is already the maximum limit. I'll be switching jobs after New Year's Day, and the update will probably be more unstable by then, so I'll need to start saving now.
