Peninsula Asteroid

"New drama?"

Hearing Kim Eun-sook's concern, Chi Jingyuan paused for a second and thought about it, then shook his head: "No idea yet..."

"No idea yet?"

Kim Eun-sook seemed a little surprised after hearing this: "Didn't I hear that after the success of "Goblin", the scripts sent to SM have filled up the entire office?

"It's not that exaggerated..." Chi Jingyuan smiled modestly.

Although it's not that exaggerated.

But, in fact, what this sister said is almost the same.

Kim Eun-sook is right. Since the big hit of "Goblin", Chi Jingyuan, who has reaped the biggest dividends, has jumped to the top position of the new generation of actors. In addition, he has excellent acting skills, a large number of fans and popularity, and a good audience appeal. He is loved by writers and TV stations. In terms of all aspects, he ranks at the top among all actors. At least in the field of TV dramas, there are no male actors who are above him.

Even if his acting skills or qualifications may be better than his...but he is definitely not as expensive as him, nor does he have such popularity and popularity as him .

And Ji Jingyuan has never failed in TV dramas since his debut, which makes people feel more at ease.

So before "Goblin" was finished, the film and television invitations sent to SM were overwhelming. There were dozens or hundreds of scripts for him to choose from. He didn't know how long it would take to read them all from the beginning.

Some time ago, there was an anecdote that "the employees of SM's film and television department boasted that Ji Jingyuan's film and television invitations filled up an entire desk when they were drinking. If they could be distributed to others, all the contracted actors in the entire company would not be able to finish filming."

If Yoona saw Ji Jingyuan's film and television resources and invitations, she would probably be jealous and jump directly, and her chest circumference would increase with heavy breathing.

"I did receive a lot of scripts, but..."

But he was a little reserved in the previous sentence, and the tone of the next sentence became helpless.

Thinking of the few recommended by SM to him and the few he read himself, he took a sip of the soju in front of him and sighed softly: "But I didn't find any I liked. ”

He did receive a lot of invitations and scripts, but he didn’t find a few that suited his taste.

Let’s not talk about the success of the previous TV series. The performance of “Goblin” was so good that it almost broke all the relevant records of tvN and even cable TV stations. While Chi Jingyuan was making a lot of money, he was also put on the spot to a certain extent.

If the next TV series is not better than “Goblin”, or is a little worse, it will actually be a setback for him. If the performance is much worse, the media and fans may directly look down on it.

So it is actually quite difficult for Chi Jingyuan to choose the next script.

But in Chi Jingyuan’s eyes, the performance of “Goblin” is basically the pinnacle of the current Peninsula TV series, and it is difficult for any other drama to be as popular as it is now. The ratings, popularity, influence, etc. are higher than it, at most they are on par.

Although "Goblin" has achieved unprecedented success, to some extent, it has also made Ji Jingyuan's TV drama road suddenly reach a hurdle, and it is a bit difficult to choose the next drama.

If we follow the general development path of TV drama actors in the Peninsula... After deep cultivation in the field of TV dramas and achieving good results, they should start to develop in the direction of movie actors. In the Peninsula, the status of movie actors is still much higher than that of TV actors, and their image in the eyes of the people will be more noble.

Like senior Yoona, after several TV dramas were a big success, she also tried her best to squeeze into the film circle, and finally got the position of the heroine. The box office of "Cooperation" she starred in at the beginning of the year exceeded 700 10,000 people, it can be considered a very successful drama.

...After years of hard work, Yoona senior can be considered a small promotion.

Although until now, Ji Jingyuan has not had the honor to watch Yoona senior's wonderful performance in "Cooperation", it is also a little regretful.

Although most of the Peninsula actors have developed in this way, Ji Jingyuan does not really want to repeat this route.

Among the many scripts received, there are not only TV dramas, but also some movie scripts.

But first, the crew lineup and the script are difficult to satisfy, but the more important thing is that Ji Jingyuan actually does not have much ambition for the acting industry, unlike his predecessors who are single-minded in developing and studying it.

Thanks to family factors, he is not afraid to say that he actually has no concern about whether to act in movies or not. It doesn't matter whether he is promoted or not.

Unlike TV dramas, the production cycle of movies is very long. Let's not talk about the hard work of shooting. Many crews are closed for several months after joining the group. Unlike TV dramas, he can shoot for two days and run for two days. Before shooting, he may have to do a lot of special exercises such as fitness, muscle building and even weight gain.

Once shooting starts, it is difficult to balance his idol career...

In the final analysis... Chi Jingyuan attaches the most importance to his idol career. What really makes him willing to devote himself to it and attracts him is the feeling of being surrounded and cheered by fans when he is on the stage.

Moreover, the possibility of failure of movies is actually greater. Once it fails, it will be a greater blow to his career.

"It is true... After "Goblin", your requirements for scripts will definitely increase. It is indeed difficult to choose."

Seeing Chi Jingyuan's expression, Jin Enshu understood it, nodded, and raised the glass with understanding.

"That's right...and this year our group will focus on overseas activities. It is expected that we will not be on the peninsula for quite some time, so if we don't see a suitable case in the near future, I will probably take some time off this year."

Chi Jingyuan also raised his glass and clinked it with this sister, and briefly talked about his current thoughts. Then he glanced at Li Yingfu, who was talking loudly with his boss and was obviously a little drunk, and asked curiously: "Nana?" Will you and Ying Fu take some time off next, or will you prepare for a new drama?"

"The Queen Mother" and "Goblin" were two consecutive hits. Director Lee Eung-bok and writer Kim Eun-sook have already become popular in the industry, and many people are looking forward to their next works.

"The next drama has actually been planned, and we should still cooperate with PD Li and tvN, but we are also planning to take a break, so this project will only be preparatory this year, and the official filming will not start until next year... This is a story The story of the war years..."

Jin Enshu told Chi Jingyuan the thoughts in her mind with great interest, but after talking for a while, she suddenly remembered something, looked at Chi Jingyuan and said with some embarrassment: "Because of the theme and setting Relationship... the male protagonist of this drama may not be a good match for you, Jingyuan, so..."

Of course Chi Jingyuan knew what this sister meant, but he was not unhappy at all. Instead, he made a suggestion with a smile: "Listening to the story told by Noona, I feel that it should be more suitable for a mature actor with a brighter appearance. I Just a little bit worse, and too young..."

As soon as he heard the outline of the story, he imagined that even though the male protagonist may not be that old, his image should be that of a relatively mature uncle... very similar to the original script of "Goblin" based on Gong Yoo.

Chi Jingyuan laughed a little in his heart

"Goblin" chose him and missed Gong Yoo. Although it was a great success, Kim Eun-sook still seems to be unable to restrain her desire to cooperate with a middle-aged handsome man~

However, Chi Jingyuan has no dissatisfaction. Jin Eunshu has taken good care of him and has given him a lot of support in several cooperations. Of course, you can't feel unhappy if they don't take care of you this time.

And he really has no interest in stories about the Peninsular War era.

"Haha..." Seeing Chi Jingyuan's attitude, Jin Eunshu breathed a sigh of relief and was also very satisfied. She adjusted her glasses and raised her glass: "If Jingyuan is interested, I will send the script to you when the time comes. Here you go, take a look, and if you think there is a good and suitable artist to star in, you can recommend it to me..."

As she said that, she glanced at Pei Xiuzhi who was sitting next to Chi Jingyuan, and then winked playfully: "I'm quite satisfied with Xiuzhi this time..."

With this sister's eyesight, after working together for so long, she can certainly see the unusual relationship between Chi Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi.

This speaks volumes about him...

"Haha, I still have to thank Noona for taking care of me."

Chi Jingyuan laughed loudly, without being shy, and drank a glass of wine with her generously.

The celebration banquet ended in such a lively manner, but the story of the drama "Ghost" is still going on.

At least, the group of them will probably get back together again in "Baeksang" in a few months.

Just when the dinner was about to end and Chi Jingyuan was about to say goodbye to everyone, producer Yin Xialin found Chi Jingyuan,

Yin Xialin is one of the producers of "Goblin". He is from tvN. He has a lot of power in the crew, but he has a good personality and gets along well with Chi Jingyuan. .

After exchanging pleasantries, he took the initiative and asked, "By the way, will Jingyuan be free in the next few days?"

"If my brother comes to see me, of course he will squeeze it out even if he doesn't have time." Chi Jingyuan first smiled and said politely, and then asked curiously: "What is it?"

Yin Xialin didn't go around in circles and explained his purpose directly: "Someone asked me to ask you to meet and talk about work."

"Are you someone from TV series production?"

"That's right." He nodded: "You should know about Netflix... He is one of the people in charge of Peninsula Netflix. If I come to you, it must be about TV dramas."

"Naifei..."

Chi Jingyuan muttered the name, and when Yin Xialin introduced it, he agreed after thinking about it for a while: "Then next week, I'll call my brother then."

"OK, let's put it this way~" Chi Jingyuan's attitude made Yin Xialin feel very happy. He made a gesture and then patted Chi Jingyuan's shoulder enthusiastically. He picked up two glasses of wine from nowhere and started talking again. Had a drink.

…………

After the celebration banquet, everyone said goodbye to each other and left one after another.

However, although Chi Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi did not communicate in advance and had no eye contact, a few minutes after they left, they appeared in the parking lot next to them with a tacit understanding.

Compared to the bustle of the restaurant, the parking lot seemed extremely quiet and deserted.

The two of them were walking together. Pei Xiuzhi's white shirt had already been covered with a coat, but her big curly hair was still hanging charmingly behind her. She was still smelling of drinks, barbecue, cigarettes and even perfume left over from the meal just now. Wait for the mixed flavor.

This smell, which cannot be said to be pleasant, seems to have undergone a wonderful reaction and started to ferment under the influence of alcohol. At this time, it has an ambiguous meaning that is inexplicable.

"I didn't feel that before, but after this celebration party, I feel that "Goblin" has really come to an end."

The two walked side by side from the parking lot. Thinking of what had just happened, Pei Xiuzhi, whose face was still flushed, suddenly felt a little emotional.

"Hmm..." He could understand her feelings, and Chi Jingyuan nodded gently.

"By the way, you are really popular these days. There are news about you everywhere on the Internet." Pei Xiuzhi thought of something, and suddenly looked at him with a strange look: "Especially that house, tsk tsk... I was wondering why you don't want to go to my house. It turns out that the place you live in is so good. No wonder you don't like my shabby little apartment."

"And you praised my house last time and it was well decorated. Now I think about it, you were saying the opposite."

I don't know if it was because of the alcohol that Pei Xiuzhi let go of some of her usual maturity. At this time, she pouted and frowned dissatisfiedly, and looked like a child complaining: "Why are you so hypocritical?"

Chi Jingyuan But he didn't indulge her, and directly retorted: "Are you taking the wrong medicine? It's just a variety show, just a house, how can you associate so much with it?"

"Hehe~"

The woman snorted twice and didn't get entangled. After taking two steps, she paused slightly, stood still and turned to look at him: "By the way."

"I had been looking forward to the celebration trip for a long time, but it suddenly disappeared. I was thinking about surfing with you before... Do you want to compensate me a little?"

Bae Suzy was talking about the celebration trip of the crew of "Goblin". Before, Chi Jingyuan told her that she should go. It seems that she really looked forward to it for a long time, but now it was suddenly cancelled. I guess she was quite angry.

"Hmm"

Chi Jingyuan pondered for a second, but didn't refuse: "What do you want?"

"..."

Faced with his inquiry, Bae Suzy just shook her head, smiled and looked at him without saying anything.

Seeing her curved eyes, flushed face, slightly pouty lips, and a hint of expectation in her eyes, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but smile and raised an eyebrow: "Why, do you want me to give you the villa in LA?"

"I don't want to..."

Bae Suzy giggled, stretched out her index finger and shook it, looking up with rippling eyes:

"I want a candle~"
