Chapter 244 Default (Part 2)
"So what?" That night, Kim Jong-ming looked at Chu Long who was blowing the pillow at her with laughter and tears, and had no idea what to say. "Do you want me to remove my grace? This is the legendary pulling my teammates back? Internal strife? Split within the team?"
"I just think what Cui said this time is actually correct." Chu Long, who was lying on Kim Jong-ming's shoulder, responded weakly. "First of all, I really seem to be spoiling them too much; secondly, Eun Di is really too free this time... Can Oppa imagine that she ran over by herself?"
"Oh." Kim Jong-ming also recalled the situation when he met in the afternoon helplessly. "I didn't think too much, but now thinking about it, she is still no different from escaping... But this personality is very similar to the heroine of this TV series. In fact, I want to hide it from you, I really think she is quite suitable."
"But we are going to return tomorrow." Chu Long explained weakly. "The pronunciation source will be released at 11 o'clock tomorrow, the album will be released at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and the variety shows recorded before the evening will start to warm up..."
Jin Zhongming looked up at the ceiling in the bedroom, and seemed to have not heard Chu Long's words at all: "Actually, the role of the female lead needs a feeling of thick skin and rough flesh. After watching for the afternoon, all the female artists were fine skin and tender skin, and they all thought that was an advantage. It would be fine if you didn't say it, but when you said it, I really felt that Endi, the proctorate lady who has been exposed to the wind and sun since she was a child, is the most suitable..."
"But we are going to return..." Chu Long repeated the reason weakly, but his tone was lower.
"I understand." Jin Zhongming was a little helpless now, so he had to reach out and touch the other person's smooth back in the quilt. "Then go to bed early, I'll take you back tomorrow morning."
"I don't know how the 5,000-word check of the Endi is written. If I can't finish writing, I will still have to eat it." Chu Long muttered the last sentence, then poured it into Jin Zhongming's arms and fell asleep peacefully.
However, Jung Eun-di's escape seemed to have really infuriated public anger. The next morning, Kim Jong-ming, who came to UB, once again encountered an anti-Taiwanese from Busan's Profile Girl... Uh, the anti-Taiwanese was named Choi Zhenhao, and the other party directly took the Busan Profile Girl himself to block Kim Jong-ming, who was about to go to the cave to discuss the TV series, at the door of the office.
"Representative." Choi Zhenhao is now extremely humble to Kim Jong-ming, and it is like this in front of everyone and behind everyone. "Ye Di is the lead singer... This return is very important, and he is facing TTS again. Seeing that we are about to release the sound source in the morning, I'm afraid she really needs to put all her energy here. The TV series is really powerless, I hope you can understand."
Kim Jong-ming glanced at the prologue lady behind Choi Zhenhao. By the way, the lead singer of the group, who was anti-teamed by his captain and company representatives, had black eyes like a panda, and had no expression on his face.
For a moment, it really made people unable to understand what she was thinking.
"Hey!" Kim Jong-ming couldn't help but tease the other party with a smile. "Have you heard that, what do you think, Zheng lead singer?"
"What do you think?" Endi, who was about to doze off, suddenly came to his senses. "Hey... I know I have made a serious mistake. I shouldn't have left the team without any organization or discipline..."
"This is what you should say to Representative Choi and his teammates, there is no need to tell me." Kim Jong-ming looked at the watch on his wrist, then raised his hands and asked condescendingly. "I'm asking why you thought of interviewing that role. Is there any special reason? Or what kind of mentality did you have at that time?"
"She definitely doesn't have a high-end thing in mindset." Cui Zhenhao couldn't help but interrupted hatefully.
Endi instinctively turned his face, not knowing whether he was avoiding Choi Zhenhao's donkey face or not seeing Kim Jong-ming's behavior: "It's really not a question of mentality, but there are indeed two reasons..."
"Oh?" Kim Jong-ming became even more interested. "Let's hear it."
"Isn't that heroine set as the daughter of the Busan Giants coach?" Endi explained helplessly. "How could a real Busan man not be moved by this setting? In Busan, when there are games, even those who can't afford to buy tickets in the venue have to buy a few cans of beer and watch TV at home..."
"This is reasonable." Kim Jong-ming nodded affirmatively. "Soon about it."
"And..." Endi couldn't help but glance at Choi Zhenhao. "Will you make more money if you have a TV series? In that case, even if you are tired, it's okay?"
"It seems like I'm greedy for your share." Cui Zhenhao interrupted again with annoyance.
After Kim Jong-ming was silent for a while, he couldn't help but turn his head and ask more: "Isn't apink an equal income?"
"Yes." Choi Zhenhao replied a little embarrassedly. "But it was not until the return in March that I had passed the income and fulfilment point. They just made two months of money... it was already good."
"I know." Jin Zhongming nodded thoughtfully. "It's really good..."
"That representative." Choi Zhenhao seemed to have noticed something from Kim Jong-ming's ambiguous attitude, so he quickly said a few more words. "No matter what the reason, Endi did make a big taboo when going to the interview without authorization this time, and no matter what, he should take the fight against TTS first..."
Kim Jong-ming was silent for a moment. To be honest, this passive exchange this morning was even better than yesterday's interview. Eun-di's performance unexpectedly conformed to the various settings of the Busan fan girl in the TV series. The native Busan atmosphere and the full outward personality really made him feel a little moved...
However, after a brief thought, Kim Jong-ming finally nodded to Choi Zhenhao, which directly moved the Busan prosecutor's position on the shortlist to the end.
After all, no matter how much you expect a TV series, it is just a TV series after all, and the company's album for Apink is not ignored. Besides, Choi Zhenhao, who has just been promoted to vice president of UB, also needs to give some face. This is not to say that Kim Jong-ming needs to respect Choi Zhenhao himself, but to say that he needs to respect the company's system to a certain extent.
However, the facts prove that if Endi moves back like this, it will not directly improve the current situation of the two heroines without any clues.
In fact, especially the role of the female lead, the crew has a very big difference... Think about it, the people in the TVN TV production department are not so much from the TV series production, but rather from the group of people brought by Li Minghan from the KBS variety show. Everyone has vitality...
Of course, more importantly, including the two leaders Lee Myung-han and Kim Jong-ming, everyone seems not very satisfied with the several main alternatives for this role.
Han Shanhua, lizzy, and Shirley, who could be seen with the naked eye, felt that she was not as good as the pre-selected female lead, but she had to jump out of these people, so she would inevitably be confused.
In this way, the morning of discussions passed. Not only did the female lead’s candidate fail to make a decision, but even the male lead had severe differences!
That's right, although Kim Jong-ming said it personally, Lin Shiwan or Jung Yong-he. However, is it Lin Shiwan or Jung Yong-he?
Both of them are from Busan, but one has acting skills and the other has buck teeth to make a fool of themselves... Well, in short, it means similar, and each has its own advantages. The main creators of the crew also have their own opinions, and they are fighting over and over again, and even Kim Jong-ming is almost overwhelmed by them!
"The male lead problem... Is it really impossible to toss a coin?" As noon approached, someone couldn't help but joke. "Anyway, choose one of two."
"If you say that, you don't have to worry about the candidate of the female lead." Someone next to you laughed jokingly. "Won Geun-young or Han Hyo-joo? How easy is it to ask the representative to invite such an A-level actress to come here?"
"But whether it is Moon Geun-young or Han Hyo-joo, it feels that each has its own merits. Do you also have to throw coins?" Lee Minghan couldn't help but joke.
Everyone burst into laughter, which wiped out the depressed atmosphere for the whole morning.
In fact, everyone knows that if this kind of role is really hired by Han Hyo-joo, it may not be great if actors of Moon Geun-young come, because if these people can watch cable TV series in their minds, they can count it as much as they can match the style of this TV series. I'm afraid it's different.
So, maybe Kim Jong-ming really has the ability and favors to bring people, but if he really wants to lose favors and not do well in the TV series, it would be embarrassing.
"Let's do it this way, there's no hurry." Kim Jong-ming gave a casual order after laughing. "What I mean is to improve the details first. The candidates for actors can take their time and not hang themselves on this tree..."
"Yes." Li Minghan added. "Go to have a meal first. After dinner, let's talk about the plot that writer Li thought of before. It is the one who sang in the KTV with the back of his back as a woman..."
Before Li Minghan finished speaking, Kim Jong-ming suddenly felt the cell phone in his arms vibrated, so he stood up and walked out first... However, after walking while looking at the caller ID, Kim Jong-ming couldn't help frowning, because he knew that the phone was here to make a favor as a request, but this person was really intimate and he didn't care about it.
"Youbotiyou, Wang pd, I haven't contacted you for a long time, I miss you so much."
"I'm afraid Zhong Ming is not sincere?" The man opposite seemed to have expected Jin Zhong Ming's attitude. "You may feel helpless when you see my name at this time?"
Jin Zhongming couldn't help but chuckled, as a default.
"I guessed right, you guessed right." The man opposite admitted without hesitation. "I was indeed entrusted by someone to sell favors to the child."
"Tell me the truth, Wang pd." Jin Zhongming didn't hide it from the other party. "I really can't say anything certain. I'm really a little confused about the candidate for the female lead..."
"I guessed this too." The king pd on the opposite side looked very relaxed. "That's why she promised to make this call so easily. Anyway, she doesn't dare to ask you for verification, right?"
Kim Jong-ming laughed silently. It took a long time no see, but he didn't expect the other party to become so humorous.
That's right, the so-called Wang PDF on the other end of the phone is actually Wang Xianwu, the general PDF of "The Invincible Season 1", and the candidate he helped Guan Shuo was also Han Shanhua.
Thinking about it, the reason why Han Shanhua, who was like a piece of white paper at that time, was actually because of his strong recommendation of the general PDF. It can be imagined that there should be some special relationship between the two.
And it is precisely because of this that when Kim Jong-ming saw the phone call today, he immediately guessed that the other party was pleading for Han Shanhua.
"Zhong Ming." Sure enough, after both sides laughed, Wang Xianwu's tone suddenly became serious. "I have also exchanged greetings and jokes, so I still have to say a few words seriously."
Kim Jong-ming immediately felt that he was getting too angry. Some favors were not something that could not be pushed, but favors were favors after all, especially such old acquaintances, one less was one less. Unless he had no choice, he really didn't want to make things look bad.
However, the other party's "interrogation" was indeed a bit beyond Jin Zhongming's expectations.
"I mean...help, don't let Shanhua get the role of this TV series." Wang Xianwu sincerely asked. "What do you think?"
Jin Zhongming stood in the corridor between the fourth and third floors of TVN, stunned for a long time at the ventilation window in front of him, and then realized what the other party was saying:
"You are...I'm a little confused."
"Don't be confused." Wang Xianwu responded seriously. "We are also acquaintances. You like to talk about logic at work, so please sort out the logic. First of all, I think your TV series will definitely be very popular. I have confidence in you; secondly, Shanhua's father is a senior who takes good care of me. I really care about her..."
Jin Zhongming was even more confused.
"So, things are very obvious." Wang Xianwu continued. "I don't want the child to rise too quickly..."
Kim Jong-ming's mind suddenly shuddered: "She has been swelling very quickly recently?"
"The whole team and even the whole company are counting her ascendant." Wang Xianwu was a little helpless. "And what's even more terrifying is that compared to her teammates who need to use the company's resources, she has a father with a deep connection on the TV station, and a bunch of uncles like me provide her with opportunities... You said, can she not inflate?"
Kim Jong-ming remained silent.
"Actually, I have only occasionally discovered some clues recently. She is obviously a little too much towards her teammates and assistants, and even has a little casual attitude towards the show. This is too far from when she was willing to live in the basement and sleep in the big bunk bed."
At this point, Wang Xianwu paused. "Anyway, I think if she gets on your fast train and flies again, she may fall badly. So the suggestion just now is for her good, and it can be considered as helping you reduce your workload a little. You don't have to think about her anymore. In the next round, find an opportunity to put her face hard."
"I understand." Kim Jong-ming nodded instinctively. In fact, he had no reason to refuse.
In this way, another main competitor left the stage dramatically, and this seemed to completely let go of the originally difficult situation.
Choi Sulli, at this time, Kim Jong-ming thought about it but couldn't find any reason to refute it. She couldn't do anything good at acting skills and could train her in person. If she didn't have enough flavor in Busan, she would let her go back to the Busan fish market and bubble more... This is really helpless.
As for lizzy, it’s not that it’s not possible, but she still has a weak sense of existence. At least when compared with Shirley, she had no reason to spend any effort on her. Even the second female lead, Kim Jong-ming was wondering whether to pick one of those professional actors with rich acting experience, so that she could prevent Shirley from collapse in acting skills.
However, just as Kim Jong-ming began to form an idea around Shirley, Choi Shirley herself was also in action!
S.m Company's third floor, outside Li Xiuman's office, Shirley hesitated for a long time, and finally chose to knock on the door of the office. By the way, for a whole day, she always felt that if she didn't do anything, she might let the opportunity slip away from her eyes... It would be a pity!
ps: It was another powerless night... I found that I had a good idea but I always didn’t code fast enough... How did I do it in the past 10,000 words in a night? There is also a book friend group of 457160898, please add it.
