After returning to Seoul, Ji Kyung-won slept for a night and recuperated and then went back to work, and the next most important thing is that the crew of "Ghost", which has been preparing for several months, has been formed and will officially start filming soon.

Every TV series prepares a script reading session before filming, and "Ghosts" happened to be placed on September 1st...... It's also a coincidence, it just so happened that he came back from Hawaii, if it was a little two days earlier, Ji Jingyuan estimated that he wouldn't even be able to go to Hawaii like Yun'er's predecessors, and it was impossible for him, the leading actor, not to participate in such an important occasion.

Today is the first day of September, and early in the morning, Ji Jingyuan took the nanny car to the place where the study meeting was held.

"I feel that Seoul has cooled down a bit in the past two days...... There's not a lot of interesting news lately. ”

I don't know if I played too much a few days ago, Ji Jingyuan didn't look energetic, and was sitting lazily in the back row while talking to his agent Park Jae-hyun, while watching the news of the past two days on his mobile phone.

The ratings of "Step by Step: Li" were sluggish, and the ratings plummeted, ranking first from the bottom, and the creative team came forward to explain.

This news, "Li" seems to be on the 29th of last month, it's a pity...... It's a pity, IU's seniors seem to be going to pounce on a drama again, and they also affected Brother Boxian and Xu Xian's seniors.

ZIco disclosed his love story with AOA Xue Hyun in the variety show "Golden Fishing Ground-Radio Star", and said that he would not push or pull on feelings, and he was very cautious and very careful about determining his feelings. ’

This is good, this news makes Chi Jingyuan's senses a little better for Zico, who is just familiar with it...... Because he is also of a similar character.

After reading some ordinary reports for a long time, and didn't find any more exciting news, Chi Jingyuan, who felt a little bored, raised his head and glanced out the window, and caught a glimpse of a poster of Kong Yu flashing by the roadside, and raised his eyebrows: "Brother, you said that "Train to Busan" is so popular now, will the crew of "Ghost" regret it?" ”

"Train to Busan" has completely become a big hit in the summer, and even this year's Peninsula films, the box office officially exceeded 10 million people a few days ago, becoming a member of the 10 million club counted on one hand in the history of Peninsula films.

And the actor Kong Yoo is naturally rising, and he has been on fire lately.

"If you want to say that you regret it, it won't be enough, we are also the best choice for the character.?"

Park Jae-hyun, who was the co-pilot, knew what he meant, and laughed: "And Kong Yoo-xi didn't want to act in the first place, and he has refused many times." ”

"But if it's a pity, there should be a little bit of it." As he spoke, he turned around and glanced at Chi Jingyuan, and said with a smile: "Jingyuan, you should know it very well...... What you can't get is the best. ”

"I don't know."

always felt that this brother was implicitly implicit, Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips and leaned back, muttering.

Park Jae-hyun smiled happily, but he didn't say anything more about it, but took out his mobile phone and looked at the memo, and reminded seriously: "Today is a script workshop, and tomorrow morning the filming of the first scene will officially begin, and the next thing is to officially join the group, and you are not filming me for the first time, and I won't say more about some ......"

"We have already discussed with the crew about your schedule, the filming schedule, EXO's group itinerary, and your personal itinerary will be staggered, but you should be very busy in the next period of time, especially in mid-to-late September, there are many concerts of XO and Milan Fashion Week and your endorsements...... Jing Yuanling must be ready. ”

"Araço ......"

Chi Jingyuan waved his hand lazily, looking extremely calm.

He has been an idol for four or five years, and he has long been used to it.

There is still some distance from the destination, Ji Jingyuan took out the script and prepared to review it, just opened the two pages and suddenly remembered something, looked up and asked curiously: "By the way, is "Train to Busan" good?" ”

"Haven't you seen it?"

Hearing this, Park Jae-hyun was a little surprised.

"No ......"

"It's pretty good, otherwise it wouldn't have such a high box office, in addition to being the gimmick of the first zombie movie on the peninsula, the production is actually quite good, and there are ...... Sensationalism is well done. ”

This brother also turned around and reminded: "It should be released in less than half a month...... If you want to see it, you have to hurry. ”

Chi Jingyuan smiled and looked out the window:

"Let's talk about it......"

…………

This time, the script reading meeting was not held on TVN, but a large conference room was set up on the 6th floor of the World Dream Commercial Center in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu.

The road conditions here are not very good, and the traffic jam has begun at six or seven o'clock in the morning, and it took a long time for the red light to drive to the underground parking lot of the dream world.

Walking all the way to the elevator, he was whispering to the agent, when Chi Jingyuan suddenly heard a sound of footsteps gradually becoming clear from far and near, and when he looked back, he took a look at a familiar face.

"So coincidentally?"

Ji Jingyuan looked at Pei Xiuzhi who he hadn't seen for a while with some surprise.

This woman didn't wear much makeup, her innocent face looked very plain, her hair was not very delicate, and it was obviously cut a little shorter to fit the role, and she casually pulled behind her ears to expose both cheeks, and she was wearing a simple plain loose long-sleeved pants but she was very temperamental.

At a glance, there is really a bit of the feeling of Ji Eunzhuo in the script......

"Hee ......"

Pei Xiuzhi blinked and laughed, and greeted him with a grip.

She was also followed by her agent, and after saying hello to each other, they stood together and waited for the elevator, Park Jae-hyun and Bae Suzhi's agent looked quite familiar and chatted directly, and they took a few steps to the side and stood a little farther away.

"Why haven't you been looking for me all this time?"

As soon as the agent moved away, Pei Xiuzhi next to him raised his eyes to look at Chi Jingyuan, his eyebrows were lightly raised, and he covered his mouth and asked in a low voice.

"Didn't you say before that you should concentrate on studying the script and taking on the role during this time?"

"You really believe it, huh?" Pei Xiuzhi couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this.

Isn't this kind of talk to be heard as a counter-argument?

Chi Jingyuan shrugged his shoulders and said nothing.

Of course he didn't believe it, and reading the script didn't conflict with dating, but she had already said so...... It's been a busy time, and a few days ago, I experienced a memorable fireworks festival, and I can't be separated.

"How's the preparation?"

At this time, the elevator came, and several people walked in together, and in the private space, Chi Jingyuan also took the opportunity to ask about a more normal topic.

"I feel like I'm almost ready."

Speaking of this, Pei Xiuzhi came to a little confident, and looked at him as if showing off: "I've really been studying the script recently, have you seen my news during this time?" ”

“……”

Chi Jingyuan recalled, with a vague impression: "I remember that a few days ago, didn't I have an endorsement or a photo of some jewelry?" ”

“！”

Hearing this, the woman's eyes lit up, and she approached his ear and said in a very low voice, "You are actually paying attention to me!" ”

The warm touch lingered around the earlobe, and Chi Jingyuan, who was scratching, felt a little itchy, took a step to the side, and looked helplessly.

Aren't you talking about business?

"Nothing but that, right?"

Feeling Chi Jingyuan's eyes, Pei Xiuzhi smiled slyly, then his voice increased, and he instantly switched to a serious appearance: "That photo was taken a long time ago, and recently I have pushed a lot of schedules for this role, and the script is about to be read badly." ”

When the agent next to him heard it, he also smiled and certified: "Wuli Suzy really put a lot of effort into this role, and even cut the hair that is very cherished short......"

Looking at Pei Xiuzhi's obviously much shorter hair and plain face, Chi Jingyuan actually had a touch of expectation in his heart, he nodded, and looked at her with a smile: "Then it's time to watch you perform, Ji Enzhuo." ””

Pei Xiuzhi grinned, blinked vigorously with his left eye, and compared wink and scissorhands very energetically, that bright and innocent appearance made Ji Jingyuan really have a little bit of the appearance of Ji Enzhuo in the illusion script for a while.

It's just that he didn't wait for him to sigh, the woman's eyes suddenly changed, and while the agent next to her didn't look at this side, Wink's eyes became charming, her mouth pursed, and she came to a beautiful flying kiss.

The contrast between the front and back temperaments made Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but feel a sigh in his heart, and he was a little speechless.

What exactly did you prepare?

…………

The door of the conference room was open, and there were people coming and going in the corridor, and there were many people who came over to greet him and Pei Xiuzhi all the way, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a lot of snacks and drinks on the table on the right for people to choose from, as well as VJ who was carrying a camera not far away and kept shooting at the door.

The script workshop will be videotaped and will be released in future highlights for promotional purposes.

Fortunately, after arriving on the floor, he and Pei Xiuzhi didn't get so close, and when they walked into the conference room, they were just very normal.

Dozens of desks in the conference room are arranged in a rectangle, and the main seat is leaning inside. At this time, there were already a lot of people here, each sitting in their position looking at the information in front of them, no one spoke very quietly, as soon as he came in, Chi Jingyuan felt a more serious atmosphere, and immediately entered the work state.

The position of the male number one is the first on the left hand side of the main seat, and as one of the youngest people in almost one of the generations, Chi Jingyuan keeps saluting gently to both sides while walking inside.

And Pei Xiuzhi was a few steps behind him, holding his hair and doing the same action, the two walked to the first and second positions one after the other and sat down, took out paper and pen and script, and did not communicate, as if they didn't know each other.

Everyone's seats are also arranged, the man and the woman sit on the left-hand side, while the other leading actors are sitting on the right-hand side of the main seat opposite, Li Dongxu and Lu Xingcai are quite enthusiastic opposite, and after Chi Jingyuan sat down, he took the initiative to smile and wave to say hello, and Chi Jingyuan naturally responded quickly...... This brother and brother have a lot of rivalry with him in the play, and it will be more conducive to filming if they are familiar.

Basically all the main actors of this seminar today came, in addition to Ji Kyung-won's leading actors, including Kim Seong-kyun, Park Hee-ben, Hwang Seok-jing and other supporting roles, and after a while, Lee Young-bok and Kim Eun-sook of the main creative team also came to the scene, and the seminar officially began at 8.30.

"I'm the director, Lee Ying-bok ......"

"I'm the script writer Kim Eun-sook, please take care of ......"

The first thing in the seminar is everyone's self-introduction, starting with the director, standing up in turn to introduce themselves, talking about the roles they play, and if they are more interested, they can talk about their views and prospects for the show, and then receive everyone's applause...... Although everyone may have known each other for a long time, this link is a very important part for the crew and actors to get acquainted with.

Kim Eun-sook wears round-rimmed glasses and looks quite kind, and as a master creator, she says a lot: "...... It was also my first time working on a fantasy genre, so I was very nervous and looking forward to what kind of reaction I would have when I filmed it...... And working with such a group of handsome actors gave me a sense of confidence, I hope everyone will work together, I will work hard, Kangsang Mida. ”

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The applause rang out, and most of the actors had a good impression and respect for Kim Eun-sook, a gold medal writer.

"Hello everyone, I'm Ji Jingyuan who plays the ghost Jin Yu......"

After Kim Eun-sook, it was the turn of the male number one Ji Jingyuan, he stood up, his expression was gentle, and he saluted very lightly as he spoke, and then a burst of applause interrupted his words, he smiled a little embarrassedly, and then said: "I'm very happy to be able to star in the drama "Ghost", because it is the first time to be a writer of a fantasy TV series, in fact, I am also a little nervous......"

"Haha......"

Ji Jingyuan's ridicule of Kim Eun-sook's words suddenly made many people around laugh, he pursed his lips, and finally saluted:

“…… I'll do my best to do it, Konsang Mida. ”

A slight fan moved, and Pei Xiuzhi next to him got up: "Aniha Saiyo, I'm Pei Xiuzhi who plays Ji Enzhuo......"

After a round of self-introduction, in the continuous applause and laughter, the previously slightly serious atmosphere suddenly became a little more relaxed, and then it entered today's main topic, the study of the script.

said that it was a script study, but in fact, it was not a very serious study of the script's lines or anything, all the actors in the script, including Chi Jingyuan, who was too busy, had already been turned over before the crew was formed, and his lines were all memorized very familiarly, so there was no need to hold on to this temporary moment.

This link is actually a very relaxed and laughing atmosphere, applause and laughter have not been interrupted, which is a bit similar to the previous self-introduction, that is, relying on the rival actors to read each other's lines, which is used to get closer to the relationship and become familiar, which can be regarded as a kind of run-in before the start of filming, which can make the official start of filming more smooth.

Among them, the most rival scenes are Ji Jingyuan and Bae Xiuzhi......

“mo？”

Ji Jingyuan looked at the script in front of him, imitated Jin Yu's tone, and read it with surprise.

"I've made up my mind!"

Pei Xiuzhi next to him didn't look at him, but also looked at the script seriously, his voice was lively and bright, as if he had entered Ji Eunzhuo's character, reading a very important line belonging to her: "No matter what I think, I think Oba you must be a ghost......"

Reading this, she suddenly paused, then her tone changed, and she said with a smile in a lovely and serious voice: "I love you......"

When the voice came, Ji Jingyuan couldn't help but glance to the side, but just happened to see Pei Xiuzhi's smile when he turned his head and glanced over at the same time.

At the same time, he may have thought that Bae Suzhi's voice was cute, and the actors around him also applauded and laughed.

Chi Jingyuan felt weird, and when he glanced at it, he inexplicably felt that there was a hint of banter in the other party's smile.

Also 'I love you......'

And why is the voice so cute, I don't know you yet? Are you really in the play? He glanced at the shy Pei Xiuzhi who was laughing in the applause, and slandered in his heart.

How many times have you practiced it......

…………

“CUT！ NG！ ”

"Suzy, come here."

With PD's order, Bae Xiuzhi, who played Ji Eun-ju, and Lian Huilan, who played Ji Eun-joo's aunt in the field, stopped their movements at the same time, politely comforted each other, and exited the room and walked towards the monitor.

And Ji Jingyuan, who had been standing behind the director and watching the monitor, sighed and shook his head secretly.

After yesterday's script workshop, "Ghost" officially started filming this morning, and the first scene filmed by the entire crew was the scene where Ji Eun-joo, played by Bae Su-ji, was abused by his aunt's family while talking to relatives at home.

It's just that Chi Jingyuan knew that most of the crew's scenes before the start of filming would not go very smoothly, but he didn't expect it to be so unsmooth, not long after the filming started, this one shot has been NG almost ten times from just now to now.

This scene is not simple, in addition to the interaction between the actors, the eyes and expressions and emotions of the character Ji Enzhuo when he is abused are very important, with red eyes, to interpret the feeling of being afraid, wronged, but stubborn under abuse.

The whole is still very coherent and needs to be done in one go.

It's a pity that this seems to be a little more difficult for Pei Xiuzhi's acting skills, and it may be that he hasn't entered the play yet, and the expression of feelings has always made PD not very satisfied, and there has been no progress after trying several times.

Chi Jingyuan actually has an understanding of this woman's strength in acting, except for "Introduction to Architecture", which was shocked by the super-level acting skills and pure image of heaven and man, which caused a lot of praise, in fact, Pei Xiuzhi's acting skills are not very outstanding, and the next few dramas have not performed very well, and his acting skills have been criticized in the previously broadcast "Arbitrary Attachment".

…… In fact, if you really want to choose a person with better acting skills between Yuna's predecessors and Bae Xiuzhi, Ji Jingyuan estimates that he will hesitate a little and carefully weigh the comparison before choosing the latter.

But yesterday, Bae Xiuzhi's boasting and hard work gave Ji Jingyuan the illusion of 'since he worked so hard and prepared seriously, the shooting went smoothly', and at this time, there was a slight gap under the constant NG.

It's not at all like what she said yesterday......

Although it was not very smooth, but looking at Pei Xiuzhi, who was listening to Li Yingfu's lecture not far away and nodding his head constantly, Ji Jingyuan also felt that this was also very good.

Anyway, it's like this when you just start it, grind it slowly, grind it until you get into the play, and grind it until you feel it.

It's best to grind to the state when she was filming "Introduction to Architecture", and everything will be fine.

In Ji Jingyuan's sight, Pei Xiuzhi listened carefully to Li Yingfu's instructions, and then returned to the middle of the venue, smiling and not feeling frustrated, and communicated with Lian Huilan, who played the opposite role, before the start of filming:

"Suzy, you will lower your head a little later, I hit you in the face just now......" Lian Huilan said politely and with some concern, although it was only for a while, it seemed that she and Pei Xiuzhi were already more familiar.

In this abuse scene, the aunt wants to beat Ji Enzhuo with a pillow, and for the sake of effect, she is really hitting hard instead of acting softly, although it is just a pillow, but it will still hurt if you hit too much on your body if you have enough strength.

However, Pei Xiuzhi smiled and patted Lian Huilan's back very considerately: "It's okay senior, you can fight as much as you want, it's okay to hit the head, I don't have anything to do." ”

After speaking, she greeted Lian Huilan and let out a continuous burst of silly laughter.

……

Gee.

Chi Jingyuan, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but smack his lips.

Although the acting skills may not be in place yet, this attitude is quite good.

Then, as he expected, he began to grind this scene, constantly filming NG, every time he filmed, Pei Xiuzhi had to be hit by the pillow four or five times, and Ji Jingyuan was also interested, so he hugged his chest, and while beating the rhythm on his arm with his fingers, he counted from behind the monitor:

“57，58……”

“68，69……”

This woman is really resistant to beating.

"OK, it's over, good!"

Just when the number was about to go up to three digits, the first scene since the start of filming was finally over, and the next scene was still filmed in this venue, and it was still the scene of Ji Eunjoo being beaten by her aunt, but this time instead of using a pillow, when she went out, she threw a small bowl of rice directly from behind and smashed it on her head......

The difficulty of this scene is not low, because after the smashing, it is a close-up of the facial expression, and it is necessary to perform the feeling of Ji Eun-joo's accumulated emotional explosion.

And it's not very easy to shoot, although the shot of the porcelain bowl falling to the ground is shot separately, and the bowl that smashes people is a special bowl, and it won't hurt to hit the head, but every time Pei Xiuzhi is smashed with rice, she has to fall on her head, and she needs an assistant to hurry up and help her clean it up after NG......

But then Pei Xiuzhi seemed to be really grinding out of the state, just when Ji Jingyuan was thinking about how many times she would have to be smashed to feel enjoyable, she actually passed it directly without filming twice, and in the close-up of the camera, Pei Xiuzhi, who played Ji Enzhuo, had red eyes and tears in the corners of her eyes, and the feeling of grievance explosion was really in place.

"Good!"

With PD happily announcing, the field staff quickly poured in and began to arrange things to prepare for the transition, while Ji Jingyuan was standing outside, looking at Pei Xiuzhi not far away with some surprise.

Such a big improvement?

It seemed to feel Ji Jingyuan's gaze, and Pei Xiuzhi, who was cleaning the rice on his hair by the assistant, turned his head to look at it.

With a pair of eyes, a head full of white rice, and a little stain on her forehead and cheeks, the woman who looked a little embarrassed compared to scissor hands and smiled with a grin.
