Chapter 640: Unpleasant; Persuasion
After the press conference, Zhang Chengyuan invited Ha Ji Won to lunch together. During the meal, Ha Ji Won said, "Cheng Yuan, it doesn't seem very appropriate for you to compare Li Byung-hun's predecessor with you and Rain at the press conference just now?" ā
Zhang Chengyuan said indifferently: "I didn't say that he was worse than me and Rain." ā
Ha Ji Won said: "But when others hear it, they can feel this meaning. I think Lee Byung-hun's seniors will definitely not be happy when they hear it. ā
Zhang Chengyuan still didn't care and said: "Let him!" Don't say that I didn't say it explicitly, even if I blatantly said that he mixed worse than me in Hollywood, what could he do to me? ā
Ha Ji Won glared at him slightly and said, "How can you talk like that?" Anyway, he is also a senior, and he is also a superstar in the entertainment industry. ā
Zhang Chengyuan smiled and said: "I'll just talk casually, and I don't dare to make irresponsible remarks about him outside, at most I will compare with him vaguely like today." But, Sister Hailin, do you think I'm up to him now? ā
Ha Ji Won thought for a while and said: "You have to be better than him in terms of popularity, and you are not worse than him in terms of acting skills and reputation, but his accumulation is much deeper than yours, and he has won a lot of awards, so your status in the hearts of the Korean people should not be as good as him." Maybe it will be a few more years before you can really surpass him. ā
"How many more years?" Zhang Chengyuan sighed and said: "Even it will take him several years to surpass, so wouldn't it take ten years to surpass Zhang Dongjian's predecessors?" ā
Ha Ji Won was puzzled and said, "Why do you say that?" The status of Lee Byung-hun's predecessors and Zhang Dongjian's predecessors is about the same, of course, maybe Zhang Dongjian's handsome face and good man image will be more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but in terms of acting achievements, they are almost the same. ā
"Really? I've always felt that Jang Dong-kun's predecessor is the ultimate goal for me to catch up with in Korea! How to say it. Maybe I worked with Zhang Dongjian's seniors when I first debuted. Because he was so impressed. As for Lee Byung-hun. Although the achievements are quite high, but they are not tall and handsome enough, and their character seems to be average, I heard that they are a little flowery. ā
Ha Ji Won smiled: "Can you compare with you again?" He may just be rumored to be very attentive, but you are 100% really attentive, and at least ten times more attentive than him! ā
"Am I distracted?" Zhang Chengyuan flatly denied: "Although I love many women, my feelings for everyone are deep and long-lasting, and I will never change my mind." So I can't simply use the word 'flower heart' to describe me, or 'amorous' is more appropriate. On the contrary, those men who specialize in the name of love, see one and love one, love one and forget one, and call it single-mindedness, are the real flowers. As for those who purely play with the body or feelings of the opposite sex, that is not a flower, but a slut. ā
Ha Ji Won sneered and said, "You always have a reason to defend yourself. But I'm not going to eat you. ā
"Okay. You say I'm going to spend my heart, anyway, I don't have anything to lose. But no matter what. Then Lee Byung-hun is no better than me! ā
Ha Zhiyuan said helplessly: "Do you have any trouble with Li Bingxian's predecessors, why do you keep saying that he is not, this is not like yours?" ā
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Although he once almost topped me with a corner cesium, it is not a holiday, but maybe I am incompatible with him, maybe I feel that if I want to surpass him, I will have a conflict with him sooner or later, so I just don't like him." ā
Ha Ji Won said: "You are all developing in Hollywood now, Hollywood is so big, how can there be any conflict?" ā
Zhang Chengyuan said: "But the Korean entertainment industry is our foundation, and it is impossible for us to really give up our acting career in South Korea, so in order to compete for the best resources, we will clash again sooner or later." ā
Ha Ji Won shook his head and said: "I can't help you with this, you can do it yourself, I just hope that in front of outsiders, you don't expose your true thoughts about Li Bingxian's predecessors, he is a senior after all, and a big senior." "In Korean society, in many cases, the predecessor is the sky.
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Sister, I understand, don't worry, I will never mess around." ā
"Oh, by the way, I heard Jihyun say a few days ago, are you going to let her quit the entertainment industry?" Ha Ji Won changed the subject.
Zhang Chengyuan thought for a while and said, "Well, I have this idea. "More than a month ago, he asked Lin Jixiu to inform Lee Ji-hyun about this, and now he has sued her.
"Okay, why let her quit?" Ha Ji Won asked.
Zhang Chengyuan said: "If it's really good, how can I let her quit?" Sister, haven't you noticed that she has hardly worked hard in the past two years? ā
Ha Ji Won thought for a while and said, "It seems like this, I haven't heard of what works she starred in, shouldn't she be with her qualifications?" ā
"Of course not! With the support of me and Brother Park, if she is willing to work hard, she will at least be a second-tier actress, how can she be as active as advertising and magazine modeling? Obviously, she has no interest in being an artist now! In this case, why waste time in the entertainment industry, why not develop elsewhere? Jang Sung-won explained why.
Ha Ji Won said: "Sounds quite reasonable. She seemed hesitant, though. ā
Zhang Chengyuan said disapprehantly: "After being an artist for so many years, if you suddenly let her quit, she will hesitate to change anyone, but she has always been very wise and will finally make a choice that meets her heart." ā
Ha Ji Won said: "If she is unwilling to quit, then what will you do?" ā
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Naturally, I won't force her, of course, the premise is that she won't get by casually, otherwise even if I force her, I will let her quit the entertainment industry." ā
Ha Ji Won shook his head and said, "You are really domineering compared to your younger sister." ā
Zhang Chengyuan smiled and said, "Isn't I respectful enough to my sister?" ā
Ha Ji Won sneered: "It's quite respectful, but it's also superficial respect, if it goes against your will, you won't be able to make us want to agree to your request." ā
Zhang Chengyuan raised his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything, because she was telling the truth, and it was not easy to argue, and at the same time he thought that maybe it was time to ask Li Zhixian what he was thinking.
ā¦ā¦
That night, after Zhang Chengyuan was busy with work, he came to Li Zhixian's apartment.
Li Zhixian is very leisurely, and never pastime at night, at this time is naturally at home, when Zhang Chengyuan saw her, she was still holding the Korean version of the "Tao Te Ching" reading, after seeing Zhang Chengyuan, she glanced at it slightly, and just didn't see it.
Zhang Chengyuan was not annoyed, and went to bed without saying hello as before, hugged her and said, "I heard Sister Hailin say at noon, are you still hesitating to quit the entertainment industry?" ā
Li Zhixian said indifferently: "I am indeed hesitating, but if you insist on letting me quit the entertainment industry, then I will depend on you." ā
Zhang Chengyuan said: "How can I say that I insisted that you quit the entertainment industry?" I'm just mentioning yƬ. If you don't want to, you can not accept it. ā
Li Zhixian said: "Really? ā
"Really. However, I hope you will think carefully. Aren't you already interested in showbiz now? Zhang Chengyuan Wan persuaded.
Li Zhixian said: "Although I don't have much interest, I'm used to this kind of life, and if I want to change, it's still very difficult." And I don't know if the position of vice president of the apparel company you arranged for me is suitable for me? ā
Zhang Chengyuan said: "Are you worried that you will mess up my clothing company?" However, you are only the vice president for the time being, not the president yet, so you don't need to worry about this, moreover, I also believe in your ability, you are naturally sensitive and thoughtful, and after practicing the exercises I taught, it has been strengthened several times, so a small shopping mall will definitely not be difficult for you. Of course, if you don't like to socialize, you can let your subordinates handle this social aspect of the matter, and you can control the overall situation. ā
Considering her current tranquil personality and some dirtiness in business entertainment, Zhang Chengyuan naturally won't let her go out to socialize.
"For the time being? Grasp the big picture? You mean that after I'm used to it, you're going to put the clothing company in my hands? Li Zhixian is worthy of being praised by Zhang Chengyuan as a sensitive and meticulous person, and he immediately heard the meaning of Zhang Chengyuan's words.
Zhang Chengyuan said with a smile: "I know everything by smelling it, I really didn't choose you wrong, you are indeed competent in business." ā
Li Zhixian said calmly: "You don't need to deliberately praise me to strengthen my confidence, how can things in business be so simple?" I'm self-aware, and I don't have the ability to do that at the moment. ā
Zhang Chengyuan said: "But you have the potential in this area!" And aren't you interested in clothing design and sales? ā
Li Zhixian thought for a while and said: "I'm really interested in this aspect of clothing, okay, I promise you yes, but I don't plan to quit the entertainment industry completely for the time being......"
Hearing the song and knowing the elegance, Zhang Chengyuan immediately said: "Well, you can continue your acting career while going to my clothing company for an internship, and after you are completely adapted, it is not too late to officially quit the entertainment industry." In addition, on the side of Brother Park, you don't have to worry about it, Jisoo will negotiate with him. As for the book you have in your hand, I don't think you need to read it again in the future. ā
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed the Korean version of "Tao Te Ching" in Li Zhixian's hand, and as soon as he vomited the internal force, it was shattered, and then he was sent to the paper basket on the side by him. To be honest, he asked Li Zhixian to quit the entertainment industry to work in a clothing company, and he also wanted to attract her attention with the things she liked, so as to reduce her time for cultivating her mind, lest the more she cultivated, the more she would have the idea of being born. Now, he regretted teaching her health skills.
However, the strange thing is that many other sisters have also practiced this set of exercises, but why is it that the more she cultivates, the more she is not interested in the red world, could it be that she has a special physique and is a seed of cultivation? It's a pity that now is not the era of cultivation, so her physique is in the way, at least in Zhang Chengyuan's eyes, it is true.
As for the Korean version of the Tao Te Ching, anyway, it is a blasphemy against the original version, so if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed, and Zhang Chengyuan does not feel that it is disrespectful to the sages.
Li Zhixian glanced at Zhang Chengyuan and didn't say anything, it's just a book, and if it is destroyed, it will be ruined, and it is not that he can't buy a new one. (To be continued......)
