The opening banquet was held on the set. The director, screenwriter, camera director and other production team members plus the main actors sat at the same table with Chen Chen and Shirley. Everyone else was enjoying the food in their respective places.
There are many acquaintances at the table. In addition to Seohyun, Nam Joo Hyuk and Sun Haojun have also crossed paths.
"Welcome President Chen to the opening banquet. The whole crew is very grateful."
Director Jin, as the leader of the crew, stood up to express his welcome.
"C is the first TV series to start filming in the new year, especially at such a juncture. It would be too impersonal if I didn't come." Chen Chen unknowingly learned how to be flattering. That set, "Thank you everyone for being willing to start work during the festive season. I hope this good start will continue until the end and bring continuous good luck to the crew."
"Haha, thanks to your good advice, I think everyone will be able to do it." Director Jin's expression suddenly became a little unnatural after he responded, "In addition, I have a gracious invitation."
"Tell me about it."
Although Chen Chen didn't show his face, he was already a little unhappy in his heart.
I made a request without doing anything. This is something that shouldn’t happen, especially “unkind requests”. If you know it’s unreasonable, just don’t mention it!
Almost at the same moment when Chen Chen secretly complained, Director Jin also spoke.
"I hope we can borrow a bit of your luck, so that the photos we shoot will achieve amazing results."
"..."
It's a bit embarrassing, this flattery is not done well. The filming was too stiff.
"Since it is a TV series invested and produced by C Department, it has already affected the fortune of C Department. Director Jin can just do it with confidence and boldness."
But Chen Chen did not let this happen. It fell to the ground, but followed his words and picked it up.
Since there is really no possibility of failure in a TV series, what's the point of saying something nice to make the whole crew more confident?
If the word "luck" spreads throughout the circle through the mouths of these insiders, it will be much easier for Chen Chen to do things in the future. Places like South Korea take this kind of statement very seriously.
“Let’s have a banquet.” While everyone was still in a daze, Chen Chen directly greeted the banquet and set the tone, “Today we just come to have a meal and chat, don’t mention work matters. Okay. ”
“…”
Hand out red envelopes, chat about daily life and gossip, let’s just forget about the start-of-work banquet.
What makes Chen Chen feel a little pity is that he did not ask about the subsequent events of Nam Joo Hyuk and Lee Sung Kyung. This is a follow-up that many people in the Korean circle are concerned about.
"From now on, all the affairs of the crew will be handled by Shirley." Chen Chen finally revealed the purpose of bringing Shirley here, "She can handle everything on my behalf, so I don't have to worry about her lack of authority and delaying the normal operation of the crew. "
"Understood." Director Jin glanced at Shirley, and then returned to Chen Chen, "Should the stage report also be handed over to Ms. Shirley? "
"Everything, everything, I should make these two words very clear." Chen Chen pointed out the other party's little thoughts directly, "At least she and I have the authority to do so regarding the TV series "Dazzling". It's the same."
"Hahaha, I understand." Director Jin laughed and then went over to say hello to Shirley, "Please take care of me in the future."
"You're welcome, we should take care of each other."
Sulli's posture no longer resembles that of an idol, and now she looks like a very imposing female executive.
“I have finished explaining everything that needs to be explained. In this case, Shirley and I will no longer waste the precious time of the crew. It is only right to produce some content within today’s time for the opening banquet. Give me a name." Chen Chen stood up to say goodbye, then glanced at the heroine, "Xu Xian, follow me."
Hand the car keys to Shirley and start the car first. Chen Chen took Xu Xian away. Got to the other side.
“Actually, this drama has an original heroine.” Chen Chen said with pressure as soon as he opened his mouth, “She is actor Han Ji Min, I think you should be familiar with her.”
"South Korea's child-like goddess, a super actor who participated in dramas such as "Love in the City" and "Dae Jang Geum" as soon as she debuted. She also won the Blue Dragon Best Actress Award more than a month ago." Xu Xian opened his mouth and said a lot , "She is an actress that I can't compare to."
"Those are not important." Chen Chen took out the sweet dates and stuffed them into Xu Xian's mouth, "As long as you are in "Dazzling" If your performance satisfies the public, I can assume that you also have that potential.”
“Just work hard”
This sweet date is really good. It was so sweet that Xu Xian would definitely not be able to recover in a short time, so Chen Chen patted her on the shoulder and left.
...
"What are you talking about? It's settled in just a few words?"
Shirley turned on the heater in advance, and Chen Chen's seat was already warm when he got in the car.
"Xiao Xiao encouraged her a few words, but you can't just put pressure on her." Chen Chen found his seat belt and fastened it, "Let's go, take me to the company and then you drive home and drive here again tomorrow. "
"I'm not as shameless as you. Let's keep the car in the company. I have my own way of getting back." Shirley couldn't help but be curious, "What kind of encouragement have you given me? Encouragement? ”
"I told her," Chen Chen told the truth, "The heroine of this drama is Han Zhimin. If you play the role well, I will treat you as Han Zhimin."
"Hiss~" Shirley gasped He took a breath and said, "You are so cruel, Chen Chen! As soon as you say something like this, senior Xu Xian will have to risk his life, and that is the Blue Dragon Best Actress!"
"I admit her potential. That's all." Chen Chen didn't think so. He said, "Everyone in this world has great potential. The question is, how many can redeem that potential? It's not that I don't believe in Seohyun, it's that I don't believe that such a small probability thing will happen to artists signed by C Division." That’s all.”
“If Senior Xu Xian hears this, your encouragement will be in vain.”
Shirley shook her head, not knowing what to say.
It just so happened that she didn't need to say anything anymore, Chen Chen's cell phone rang, it was Zhixiu's call.
“I’m not bothering you, Oppa?”
Chisoo’s starting gesture seemed very polite.
"Fortunately, I'm not busy." Chen Chen responded: "What's wrong, you don't call me often."
"Jennie was called away by the president for a day of training "I'm feeling depressed now and I don't know what to do. Oppa, do you have any ideas?" Zhixiu asked.
"There is no way, just let this happen naturally." Chen Chen refused directly, "My position is that of the boss of an entertainment company. I can't comfort her on this kind of thing, and I can't think of a way to comfort her."
"In addition, I would like to advise you not to comfort her." Chen Chen added: "The benefits she gained from the relationship were not shared with you, and you naturally have no responsibility to bear the punishment she will receive after the incident. , especially when this matter will have a blow to the entire BLACKPINK.”
“But after all, we are still good friends and partners who have lived together for many years.” Jixiu didn’t agree with Chen Chen. Thought, "I can't possibly see her unhappy forever."
"Then do what you should and want to do from the perspective of a friend and partner." Chen Chen was waiting for her to say that. , responded directly, "After finding the correct position, what you have to do will become much clearer right away? Just do it quickly."
"Thank you Oppa!" Jixiu was happy for a moment, "I'll see you later I’m reporting the situation to you!”
"..."
"If this happens to Integrate, how will you solve it?"
Seeing Chen Chen hang up the phone, Shirley asked with interest.
“I fell in love two years after debuting.” Chen Chen smacked his lips and said, “That means nine people are too many, so let’s kick them out.”
