Chapter 63: Casting

Morning.

In a conference room, under the introduction of Ahn Tae-ho, Lee Seung-woo officially met with the company's selected TV drama director for the first time.

Li Chengyou went to Huaxia for half a month before, and after he came back, he was busy moving, and the other party also had something to do, so the meeting has been delayed until now.

But it's no stranger to this director Lee Seung-woo -

Jiang Qihao, male, born in 1969, is 43 years old, used to work for KBS TV, and is good at filming suspenseful romantic dramas.

After reading Jiang Qihao's information at that time, Lee Seung-woo specially found the other party's work to watch, and finally finalized the cooperation with the other party after communicating with An Taihe.

After the cooperation was confirmed, because Li Chengyou was still in China at that time, the two sides simply communicated over the phone.

Officially meeting, today is the first time.

"Chengyou, we finally met, I didn't expect you to be younger than I imagined, you are really young and promising."

Jiang Qihao is about 1.75 meters tall, with thick eyebrows and a square face, and slightly dark skin. After the two sides met, seeing Li Chengyou bowing and saluting, Jiang Qihao hurriedly stopped with a smile, and first praised Li Chengyou by holding his hand.

There is a strict hierarchy of seniors in Korea, and seniority and age are important.

And whether it is in terms of age or seniority, Lee Seung-woo is a junior, and it is a proper thing to see a senior salute.

But although the ceremony is this ceremony, Jiang Qihao does not dare to take the shelf.

In the entertainment industry, seniority and age are important, but status is even more important. Not to mention that film directors are already one level higher than TV drama directors, even in the field of TV dramas, the status of screenwriters has always been greater than that of directors. Not to mention that after reading the script created by Lee Seung-woo, Kang Ki-ho confirmed Lee Seung-woo's talent and potential, and he would not pretend because of these false courtesies.

"Brother Qi Hao has won the prize."

Li Chengyou got up and said with a humble smile: "Compared with Brother Qi Hao, I am still a small character, far behind, and there is still a lot to learn from you." ”

"Hahaha, good, not arrogant or impatient. Seung-woo, I'm really getting more and more fond of you. ”

The two sides exchanged polite words, chatted a few more words, politely sat down, and got to the point.

Now that the TV series has been recorded, and cooperation with the TV station has also been negotiated, the next step is to enter the formal preparation and casting.

Of course.

The heroine has been determined, so don't bother with this.

"Chengyou, about the candidates for the leading actor, these are the ones I am relatively optimistic about, this is the information, how about you take a look?" Kang Ki-ho picked up a document and handed it to Lee Seung-woo.

In terms of the selection of the leading actor, Lee Seung-woo has communicated with Ahn Tae-woo before, and he will not be selected from within the company. When I talked to Jiang Qihao on the phone in Huaxia before, I also talked about this topic, and asked Jiang Qihao to recommend suitable candidates.

After all, compared to him, Jiang Qihao has been in the industry for more than ten years, and he is more familiar with the choice of actors than him.

In addition to deepening the relationship between the two parties under the formal acquaintance of the two parties, the main purpose of this meeting is also to determine the candidate for the leading actor. If it is the actor recommended by Jiang Qihao, Lee Seungwoo is not satisfied, and an open selection will be held at that time.

After taking the documents, Lee Seung-woo opened them and checked the information one by one.

When he turned to an actor's resume and saw the actor's photo, Lee Seung-woo couldn't help but be stunned.

Name: Park Bo Kim

Gender: Male

Date of birth: 16 June 1993

Height: 182cm

Work experience: In August 2011, he participated in the movie "Blind Certificate......

After simply glancing at these materials, Lee Seung-woo did not stay long, and his eyes turned to the photos of the actors.

He suddenly found that this actor was a little similar to the male protagonist in the TV series "I Want to See You" in his previous life, the key is that the clean and simple smile is very in line with the temperament of the male protagonist. Whether it is said that he has the bonus of the male protagonist of the TV series in his previous life, or whether he is preconceived, after seeing the photo of this actor, Lee Seung-woo subconsciously paid a little more attention to this actor.

Pulling out Park Baojian's resume, Lee Seung-woo looked at Jiang Qihao and asked, "Brother Qihao, what is the specific situation of this actor named Park Baojian, please help me explain it in detail." ”

When Jiang Qihao heard this, his eyes couldn't help but move slightly.

Frankly speaking, in fact, he doesn't know much about this actor named Park Baojian. The reason why I was added to the recommendation for Lee Seung-woo was because I was asked by a friend.

Of course.

is also partly because the acting skills of this named Park Baojian are okay, and the age is relatively appropriate, so he was put into the candidate actor by Jiang Qihao.

Seeing Li Chengyou ask at this moment, Jiang Qihao thought about it a little and gave a brief introduction.

Park Baojian, who made his debut in the drama film "Blind Certificate" in August 2011, and then successively starred in the film and television drama "Police Officer Che", "Hero 2012", "Bridal Mask" and other works.

Although the resume is very simple and there is nothing to boast about, for the sake of his friend's face, Jiang Qihao still boasted a few words about Park Baojian.

"Chengyou, although this actor has made a short debut, his acting skills are still very spiritual. It's just two days before we start auditioning actors, if you think his appearance is okay, why don't I arrange for him to send him an audition invitation, and you can see it live when the audition comes in two days? ”

Lee Seung-woo groaned slightly when he heard this, and nodded.

In terms of appearance, this actor is indeed in line with his positioning as the leading actor, but after all, he is a newcomer who has just debuted, if his acting skills are not up to par, Lee Seung-woo will not lose his size because of his appearance.

After finalizing the matter, Lee Seung-woo continued to look through the information.

After that, I communicated with Jiang Qihao and An Taehe on the selection of actors, and when we finished talking, it was time for dinner.

After dinner and a few more small talks, this meeting is over.

After saying goodbye, Lee Seung-woo took a taxi back to the apartment.

But as soon as he entered the door, he saw a figure rushing from the living room.

"Oppa, why did you come back, I'm dying of hunger."

Lee Seung-woo: "......"

Glancing at Kim Jisoo, who looked dissatisfied, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Closing the door and changing into slippers, Li Chengyou asked casually: "Why are you running to me at noon, you don't have a training session in the afternoon?" Also, you won't order your own takeout when you're hungry, so don't tell me you don't have any money. ”

"Oppa, we'll rest in the afternoon."

Kim Jisoo explained, and suddenly said: "By the way, oppa, when did you change your bank card password?" You didn't even say a word to me. oppa: What is your password now? ”

Lee Seung-woo turned his head sideways and squinted at Kim Ji-so: "What are you doing?" You won't be topping up the game again, right? ”

Kim Jisoo stepped forward, hugged Lee Seung-woo's arm, and said coquettishly: "Oppa, you still know me best." oppa, how many passwords do you have, tell me quickly. Don't worry, when I make money in the future, I will pay you back double. ”

Lee Seung-woo: "......"

I believe you're a big-headed ghost!
