Chapter 67: The same group of actors
"Senior, I'm EXO's Chi Jingyuan."
Chi Jingyuan glanced at her, his eyes bent into a crescent moon.
"Ani, there's no need to call us seniors, we are all couples who play opposite sides throughout the play, and such an unfamiliar title is not conducive to entering the role...... It's okay to usually call me Nu, but if you bring in the identity of the character, it's okay to call Xinhui directly. ”
"That's right, Jing Yuan xi, remember to sign me later, I've been your XO's meal since last month."
Park Shin Hye smiled kindly and enthusiastically, and spoke to Ji Kyung-won in a very familiar tone, bringing the relationship between the two who were originally just meeting for the first time a lot closer in just a few words.
"Inside, Shin Enuna, it's our pleasure, I'll be sure to brag to the members when I get back to the dormitory."
Ji Jingyuan blinked, not the slightest discomfort at the other party's enthusiasm, but looked into the other party's eyes and replied with a natural smile.
Park Shin Hye was dressed in a simple casual outfit, with her hair combed in a ponytail and hung on the back of her head. The facial features are not amazing at first glance, but they give people a very comfortable feeling, but after looking at it for a long time, you will find that it is quite tasteful.
As soon as she met, she showed a very good means of communication, and that enthusiastic gesture and smile even Ji Jingyuan had to admit that she was quite charming.
However, they are all artists who have been up and down in the entertainment industry for many years, of course, they will not be so simple.
According to Park Jae-hyun's information, Park Shin Hye debuted very early, and her Bole is a senior in the music industry, who was once very popular for a while, very well-connected, and the singer Lee Seung-hwan with the same name as EXO's agent.
In the first few years of her debut, Park Shin Hye was actually not very smooth, because it was rumored on the Internet that she intervened in the marriage of Lee Seung-hwan and Chae Yeon, which led to the divorce of the other party, and many people angrily criticized her for her low morality, which made her have a bad reputation in the eyes of some people.
It's just that these revelations and some news have not been confirmed, and Park Shin Hye has denied it many times.
She still relied on the 09 TV series "It Turned Out to Be a Beautiful Man", and slowly reversed her reputation, after several years of development and hard work, she is already one of the most prominent actresses of the younger generation, and now basically no one has mentioned the rumors.
Ji Jingyuan didn't bother to care whether those rumors were true or not, under his personal contact, whether it was his appearance or the personality he showed, Park Shin Hye gave him a pretty good feeling.
After that, I said hello to a few other people, and Kim Woo-bin was in M! C backstage has already met, and they have exchanged contact information, the two smiled at each other after meeting this time, and the other party raised an eyebrow.
Kim Ji Won, who plays the second female, has a lot of rivalry with Ji Kyung-won in the script, she doesn't seem to be as sociable as Park Shin-hye, and nods politely at Ji Kyung-won.
Speaking of Kim Ji Won, Ji Kyung-won can't help but think of Cui Xueli, both of whom starred in "To the Beautiful You" last year, because the ratings of this drama were very large, resulting in Cui Xueli, who is the first female being, has not recovered so far, nor has she received a new drama.
And Kim Ji Won's economic company is estimated to be in good strength, it seems that she has walked out of the shadow of the failure of that drama and has already returned a lot of blood, otherwise she would not have received the second female lead of "The Heirs".
Park Hyung-sik and Kang Min-hyuk are both from idol groups, and they have seen each other from time to time in the backstage of singing before, but everyone's combination is a competitive relationship, and they can't talk about being very familiar, just to maintain a superficially harmonious cooperative relationship.
In the end, Zheng Xiujing, who was separated by a few positions.
Chi Jingyuan noticed that Zheng Xiujing had been looking at him from time to time since he entered the door, and when he saw him looking over, he didn't say anything, and nodded with a smile.
In fact, Zheng Xiujing is in a very complicated mood now, she is also from the idol group of SM company, this meeting will be reminded by the agent, she is almost one of the first people to come, and she has been waiting after coming, and she will greet every senior artist who arrives very respectfully, and she will salute very standardly.
Although she also got a lot of smiles, Zheng Xiujing was quite sensitive, and felt that some people didn't take her seriously, and some seniors even smiled perfunctory, and waved at her casually.
Although "The Heirs" is her first drama, it is not the first time she has acted in a TV series, and this kind of cold reception has been encountered many times, that is, she is in the mood for a while and does not care too much.
It's just that after Chi Jingyuan came, she saw the reactions and returns of other artists present, and it was more ironic in comparison.
However, only her thoughts are known to herself, and no one pays attention to them, not long after Ji Jingyuan came, everyone arrived, and then all the main creative staff of the crew, including the director and screenwriter, arrived and began to host the meeting.
This kind of crew meeting is much the same, and it is not the first time that Chi Jingyuan has participated in this kind of meeting, basically the main creators say some words of encouragement, and then the artists get acquainted with each other, the purpose is to run in the relationship between the actors in advance, and they can quickly enter the state after the official start-up.
What's interesting is that Kim Eun-sook called Ji Kyung-won's name several times when she spoke, and said a few words to him very kindly, and anyone can see at a glance her unabashed appreciation for the male lead.
This kind of optimism made some people can't help but mutter, some are dissatisfied with Ji Kyung-won's final change of head and squeezing Lee Min Ho into the crew, as well as contempt for his qualifications and seniority Under Kim Eun-sook's obvious support, some people can't help but put away some careful thoughts.
The meeting was followed by a script workshop, where all the cast members studied the script together, familiarized themselves with the characters, and when communicating with each other, they all called each other by their names in the play to increase the sense of substitution.
After saying goodbye to the members and a few friends and family, Ji Jingyuan went to the airport with the crew on August 22 to prepare for a charter flight to Los Angeles.
Not all the actors who flew to LA this time went, only the characters who appeared in LA in the first few episodes will go together, and the other actors will stay in Seoul and wait for the location filming to be completed before joining the group.
However, under the requirements of the crew, several young actors from idol backgrounds will go with them even if they don't have a role in LA, because the crew still has some doubts about their business ability, and they need to feel the environment of the crew in advance and integrate into it as soon as possible in order to shoot more smoothly at that time.
The actors, plus their respective agents and assistants, as well as the main creators and staff of the crew, together with large bags of shooting equipment and daily necessities, a large group of people add up to a lot of people, and they look quite imposing when they walk together.
It is estimated that the artist's agency and SBS themselves released the news, and when they arrived at the airport, there were already media and fans squatting there for a long time, and as soon as the crew got off at the airport, the flashing lights began to turn on non-stop, and cheers and screams followed.
They are all fans of various artists, and at a glance, only the rice belonging to EXO and Yuan is the most conspicuous, they form a dense phalanx, holding a specially made banner in the front row, which reads support and blessings for Chi Kyung-won's new drama, and at the same time, there are many people holding his pictorials and watching him scream.
Seeing this scene, Ji Jingyuan stopped, smiled and waved to the fans to thank him, and walked into the airport after a while under the shouts of the crew's staff.
Not long after, the plane took off from Incheon International Airport and headed towards Los Angeles through the clouds.
