Chapter 198: A Trip to Japan

On May 1, Jang Sung-won and Han Chae-young were invited to Japan as representatives of "Haojie Chunxiang" to promote this TV series, and also to build momentum for the drama being broadcast by MXTV in Tokyo, Japan.

In the middle of last year, Taiwan's GTV TV station also broadcast "Haojie Chunxiang", and Zhang Chengyuan and Han Caiying were also invited at that time, but at that time, Han Caiying was in conflict with the schedule because of the filming of the TV series "OnlyYou", and he was unskilled, so he did not go to Taiwan with Zhang Chengyuan to promote, and this time the two happened to have time, so they went together.

After Zhang Chengyuan and Han Caiying met, they were quite happy, but Zhang Chengyuan's joy was naturally revealed, while Han Caiying was hidden in his heart and only revealed some in his eyes. Fortunately, Zhang Chengyuan has a keen eye and outstanding perception, otherwise I am afraid that I will not feel the joy in her heart.

Since breaking through that relationship, the two of them have not seen each other more than five times in the past four months, and on average about once a month, they actually miss each other a little, not only emotionally, but even more physically. For Han Chaeyoung, Jang Sung-won is definitely a man who can give her the most pleasure, and for Jang Sung-won, Han Chae-young is the most perfect figure among the women she knows, well, Lin Ji-so's figure is not inferior to Han Chae-young, but she is not her woman yet.

I took the first flight to Tokyo at Gimpo International Airport, arrived at Tokyo Airport at about 10:30 a.m., and as soon as I got out of the airport, I was startled by the high-pitched cries of enthusiastic fans who had been waiting for a long time. And so welcoming! ”

Zhang Chengyuan immediately beckoned, causing more violent screams, and after listening to it, almost all of them were the shouts of girls, and some of the girls who were close shouted and wanted to rush over, and the security personnel hurriedly tried their best to stop them. Han Chaeyoung was not as sullen as him, and behaved much more elegantly, just smiling and nodding in greeting.

The two got into a nanny car under protection, and as soon as they got into the car, a reporter sent by Japan's MXTV TV station interviewed them, and the TV media wanted to follow up on their trip today. Although Zhang Chengyuan is dissatisfied, he hates reporters to follow him the most, but at this time he has no choice, he has to follow the customs when he enters the township, although I don't know if this situation is the custom of the Japanese media, but since he accepted the invitation of this TV station, he can't refuse to be interviewed at this time.

After answering several formalized questions raised by Japanese reporters, such as "impressions of Japan" and "impressions of coming to Japan", Jang Sung-won and Han Chae-young stopped answering, and Han Chae-young's agent came forward to stop the Japanese reporter so that the two could take a breath and rest so that they could cope with the rest of the trip.

After checking into the big hotel where they were going to stay for the next few days, they dropped off their luggage and had lunch, and then set off again, and at about 12:30 p.m., they arrived at the venue where the press conference fan meeting would be held in the afternoon, and had the necessary rehearsals. After the rehearsal, the two were interviewed again for a short time and some photos were taken.

At about half past three in the afternoon, the press conference began, and dozens of print and television media came to the scene

At this time, Jang Sung-won and Han Chae-young, who had already changed into formal clothes, came to the center of the stage and sat down, and after greeting the reporters in Japanese and Korean, the reporters began to ask questions. Behind them sat a female Japanese translator, who was in charge of translating words they couldn't understand to both of them.

In fact, Jang Sung-won is no stranger to the Japanese language, and before coming to Japan, he studied Japanese for seven nights, and with his natural ability, he had already mastered basic Japanese conversation by this time. But when he came to Japan, he said almost everything in Korean, except for a few greetings in Japanese, and then the interpreter relayed it to the relevant personnel.

The purpose of learning Japanese is not to communicate with the Japanese, but he doesn't want to be deceived or scolded by the Japanese.

Moreover, if he has time, he also wants to go shopping alone with Han Chaeyoung, and at that time, the Japanese he has learned will be able to play a role, so as not to be "slaughtered" by local profiteers when buying things.

As for Han Chaeying, she really doesn't know much Japanese, although she has been to Japan before, and even cooperated with Japanese stars to shoot commercials, but she also knows a few words of commonly used Japanese, if she walks alone on the streets of Tokyo, I'm afraid that she won't find her way back to the hotel.

The questions asked by reporters at the press conference were also quite common, such as "How are you feeling?" "Do you like Japanese food?" "What impressed you most about Japan?" This kind of question, of course, also asks a few questions about "Haojie Chunxiang" and the recent TV works of the two. There are no sharp questions asked, and the most acute is nothing more than this: "Some Japanese media and fans call you 'South Korea's Takuya Kimura', what do you think?" ”

After hearing the title of "South Korea's Kimura Takuya", Zhang Chengyuan was immediately stunned, Kimura Takuya, that guy is Japan's most well-known and influential famous actor, singer, Japanese drama king, Japanese national idol, in short, a Japanese king-level figure, how can the current Zhang Chengyuan be compared?

Although Zhang Chengyuan is proud, he is not without self-knowledge, how to accept this title with a huge aura, and immediately said modestly: "It's an honor that someone has raised me to the same height as Kimura's predecessors, which I am very happy about, but compared to Kimura's seniors, I am inferior to him in almost every aspect, so please don't compare me with him, I haven't reached his level yet!" He's a superstar in Asia, but I'm not even a superstar in Korea! ”

Because he didn't want to be insulted by Takuya Kimura's huge fan base, Zhang Chengyuan had no choice but to raise Takuya Kimura and belittle himself. may not be said to belittle himself, in fact, although he is a first-line star in South Korea, he is obviously still some distance from a superstar, because there is indeed a certain gap compared to superstars such as Zhang Dongjian and Lee Byung-hun, especially the gap in awards and honors.

After hearing Zhang Chengyuan's answer, Japanese reporters all seemed to laugh, because the "South Korean Takuya Kimura" referred to by the Japanese media does not mean that Zhang Chengyuan's status in the Asian entertainment industry can be compared with Takuya Kimura, but that his appearance and temperament can be comparable to Takuya Kimura.

Zhang Chengyuan is a little self-inflicted! Fortunately, his answer was quite modest, otherwise he would have caused criticism immediately.

The reporter explained the true meaning of this title to Zhang Chengyuan, and Zhang Chengyuan immediately made a big red face, but his self-control ability was extremely strong, and he instantly restored his red face to its usual appearance, so except for Han Caiying, who was very familiar with him, no one noticed his abnormality.

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Oh, so that's the case, it's my honor!" I didn't want to answer more, but I thought in my heart: "Light is better than looks, I should be better than him, at least my height is far above him." ”

The one-hour press conference passed quickly, and then after an hour or so, the Japanese fan meeting began at half past five in the afternoon. About 2,000 people came to this fan meeting, about half of them were girls or young women, a quarter were middle-aged and elderly women, and the rest were men.

Compared with the Korean fan base, the middle-aged composition of Japanese fans is significantly higher, and perhaps this is one of the characteristics of Japan. When Pei Yongjun was the hottest in Japan, his Obasang fan group was simply overwhelming.

At this fan meeting of "Haojie Chunxiang", Zhang Chengyuan's appearance was more special, he ran in from the sidelines, walked through the aisle in the middle of the audience, and ran to the stage. Along the way, the enthusiastic fans who were screaming crazy rubbed a lot of oil, and when he ran to the stage and was about to go on stage, he was almost hugged by a female fan who didn't look good, but fortunately he flashed fast and quickly jumped on the stage!

After taking the stage, he bowed and waved hello, and then Han Chaeyoung walked out from behind the stage, followed by the host and translator of this fan meeting.

After greeting fans in Japanese again, the hostess began to ask questions, and the questions she asked were naturally very different from those asked by reporters, and more about the stories that happened during the filming of "Haojie Chunhyang", as well as the personal circumstances of the two leading actors, namely Jang Sung-won and Han Chae-young, such as "the first impression of the two when they met", "please evaluate each other's personalities", "how the two felt when they filmed the kiss scene for the first time", etc., these are the information that fans want to know the most.

After asking questions, it's time to interact with the fans, drawing lucky fans, giving gifts, agreeing to fans' requests to shake hands, taking pictures, and even hugging. Almost every female fan who came up wanted to hug Zhang Chengyuan, although he was impatient, but he knew that this situation must not be refused, so he had to deal with it patiently, but after a few times, when Yuan Shen felt the sincerity of every fan, he was suddenly shocked, and thought to himself: "The hearts of foreign fans are no worse than Korean fans, and even more real!" Thinking about it like this, he sincerely hugged the fans enthusiastically, and no longer cared whether their looks were pleasing or not.

At the end of the fan meeting, Jang Sung-won and Han Chae-young also sang a song together, the song title is "I Love You More Than Anyone Else", which is a song sung by the two in "Haojie Chunxiang". When filming at the beginning, Zhang Chengyuan didn't practice hard, so he sang messily, while Han Chaeyoung sang better, but it wasn't very good.

Because he lost face in this scene, during the filming of "MyGirl", Jang Sung-won learned to sing seriously, and his singing strength improved rapidly, and at this time he was far above Han Chaeyoung. Therefore, tonight's singing was sung by Jang Sung-won with Han Chae-young, which made Han Chae-young feel embarrassed, because she used to sing with Jang Sung-won.

After the singing, Jang Sung-won and Han Chae-young got off the stage hand in hand and walked to all the main directions in the audience, trying to let every fan see their true faces up close. The audience was thunderous and the atmosphere was warm.

After the fan meeting, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, and there was no itinerary for that night, so Jang Sung-won instigated Han Chaeyoung to wander around the streets of Tokyo. Shopping is a woman's nature, and Han Chaeyoung also had this intention, so she agreed.

The two of them slipped out of the door of the hotel with a little dress-up, and in a foreign country like Japan, the two were not very famous, even if they walked on the street without modification, they would not necessarily be recognized, and even if they did, it would not be a big deal, and it was absolutely impossible for hundreds of people to come around to see them, so both of them were very relaxed.

What you really have to worry about is whether someone who knows them will accidentally take a photo and upload it to the Internet, thus causing a storm. But with Zhang Chengyuan here, this kind of thing will never happen.

Taking the car to Ginza, Tokyo, one of the three most famous streets in Japan, Jang Sung-won and Han Chae-young strolled around casually, chatting casually.

Han Chaeyoung said: "I want to go shopping!" ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "Then go!" ”

Han Caiying said: "I didn't bring enough money, and I didn't bring a card!" He looked at Zhang Chengyuan slyly.

Zhang Chengyuan said without hesitation: "Then swipe my card!" Regardless of whether Han Chaeyoung brought it or not, Jang Sung-won was willing to pay for Han Chaeyoung, and his purpose in making money was originally to bring happiness to his women.

Subsequently, the two entered the stores, Han Caiying was responsible for selecting goods, Zhang Chengyuan was responsible for talking and swiping cards, each had a division of labor, and cooperated tacitly, and it didn't take long for Zhang Chengyuan to carry several bags of things in his hands.

After shopping for more than two hours, nearly twelve o'clock, Han Caiying and Zhang Chengyuan planned to go back. Looking at the goods worth more than 30 million won that Jang Sung-won was carrying, Han Chae-young said: "When I go back, I will return the money for this shopping to you!" ”

Zhang Chengyuan said: "No need, paying the bill for your own woman is justified!" ”

Han Caiying snorted lightly and said, "I never admitted that I was your woman!" ”

Zhang Chengyuan said lightly: "It's okay, let's confirm it when we get to bed tonight!" ”

Han Caiying's face turned red, took a sip, and walked forward quickly, Zhang Chengyuan followed behind unhurriedly, no matter how Han Caiying sped up his pace, he couldn't get rid of Zhang Chengyuan, who was carrying dozens of pounds of heavy objects in his hands.

Quietly slipped back to the hotel, Zhang Chengyuan and Han Caiying returned to the room, so as to avoid being said a few words by Han Caiying's agent, but he didn't dare to say anything irresponsible to Zhang Chengyuan, because he had been "stared at" by Zhang Chengyuan with his eyes before, so that he still has lingering palpitations for Zhang Chengyuan, and even respects Han Caiying a lot.

That night, when he fell asleep, Jang Sung-won sneaked into Han Chae-young's room, spent a good night with Han Chae-young, and forced Han Chae-young to admit that she was "Jang Sung-won's woman". Of course, what he said at this time may not be Han Chaeyoung's true words, and Jang Sung-won also knows this, but he feels that as long as he forces it a few more times, then one day Han Chaeyoung will subtly admit that it is his woman in his heart.

In the early morning of the second day, Zhang Chengyuan woke up early and quietly returned to his room, and no one in the entire hotel noticed the good things Zhang Chengyuan did last night.

The next day, Zhang Chengyuan and Han Chaeying's itinerary was mainly to participate in Japanese talk shows or entertainment variety shows on TV, and occasionally accept interviews with various media, including interviews with Korean media.

On the third day, Han Caiying returned to China first, and the "Spark Game" she participated in is in full swing, and she can't leave for too long, otherwise it will definitely affect the filming progress of the TV series. Jang Sung-won stayed in Japan for another two days, meeting with a group of shooting teams led by Park Byungyeol who came from South Korea last night, and in the next two days, he shot four groups of more than 400 photo albums in one go.

Since the 04 Bali photo album, Jang Sung-won has never shot a special photo album again, and this shooting, Park Byung-yeol seems to think that Jang Sung-won's photo album will definitely be able to sell anyway, it is better to take advantage of the time when Jang Sung-won is more leisurely now, shoot a few more groups, and keep it for the future and slowly launch it on the market. You have to know that Zhang Chengyuan's contract will expire next year, and I don't know if he will renew the contract.

Of course, this is also a decision made with the acquiescence of Jang Sung-won, otherwise Park Byung-yeol would not be stupid enough to offend Jang Sung-won, even if Jang Sung-won does not renew the contract, with his relationship with Jang Sung-won, he will definitely have a lot of opportunities to cooperate with Jang Sung-won in the future, and he will always have a good relationship with Jang Sung-won no matter when. This is not only for the sake of profit, but also for the sake of friendship.
