Chapter 13 Company Dinner [Part 1]
After discussing with Li Youjing, Jin Qixuan asked casually:
“Am I the first confirmed actor?”
"Yes, you are the first actor appointed by our crew, but other roles will be confirmed in the next few days."
Regarding this question, Jin Qixuan was purely asking Kim Jong Kook.
This kind of thing is like showing off to neighbors and colleagues when their children get first place in the exam.
Although it was a bit embarrassing to hear Kim Jong Kook praise himself in front of others, he was still quite happy in his heart.
After all, no one dislikes compliments.
After
Jin Qixuan tentatively suggested that the role of Aze might not be finalized.
"There are two candidates, we are still considering them comprehensively, what? Do you have any recommendations?"
Jin Qixuan nodded, did not mince words, and said very straightforwardly:
"I think Park Bo Gum Xi is quite suitable. I feel that he is very similar to the character in the script."
"Park Bo Gum? Well, we will respect your suggestion, and he is indeed among the candidates we are considering. ”
After chatting for a few more words, the two shook hands with Jin Qixuan and said goodbye.
Afterwards
Jin Qixuan was led by the staff to sign a salary contract.
The remuneration is 100 million won, 5 million per episode, half of the deposit will be given first, and the remaining crew will be settled together after the filming is completed.
The price is standard for new actors, so there is nothing to choose from.
However, before signing the contract, Jin Qixuan told his agent Sheng Bingxu and secretly called Kim Jong Kook on the pretext of going to the toilet.
Logically speaking, the resources for this drama belong to Jin Qixuan personally and have nothing to do with the agency.
But the contracting company happened to be stuck before the angle was fixed.
So Jin Qixuan was a little unsure about whether to give commission to the brokerage company.
“Ah! Is fifty million a lot? Why didn’t you even hesitate when you spent ten million on a bracelet?”
That's different, that's being cheated!
Jin Qixuan hung up the phone, washed his hands, and returned to the signing room.
Sheng Bingxu had already gotten angry with Cha Taehyun. When he saw Jin Qixuan coming back, he told him directly that the company would not take a commission from the production of this drama.
"No, Brother Bingxu, the company must take a commission, otherwise I will have trouble sleeping and eating!"
Seeing Jin Qixuan's righteous look, Sheng Bingxu scratched his head, walked out of the house and called Cha Taixuan to inquire. one time.
"Haha, this kid is as shrewd as his uncle, okay, just do what he says."
Obviously, Cha Taehyun has been in the entertainment industry for such a long time, and he is considered a master in the world of people.
After the signing was completed, the money was divided into two parts, one part was transferred to Kim Jong Kook's card, and the other part was transferred to the company's account.
As for taxes, actors usually collect them at the beginning of the second year and then pay them uniformly.
Taking a brand new script, the two left the TV station.
Jin Qixuan had no schedule and suggested to Sheng Bingxu that he be sent to the university to attend lectures.
After the lecture, Jin Qixuan went to Fengen Temple to ask for a Buddhist bead bracelet as a birthday gift for his cousin he had never met.
I don't have any money, and I don't know what she likes, so I simply gave her a Buddhist bead bracelet to save trouble.
Two days later, Cha Taehyun announced in the company group that they would have a dinner tonight.
The location is a barbecue restaurant jointly owned by Kim Jong Kook and HAHA.
At nine o'clock in the evening
Jin Qixuan arrived at the 401 Hongda Road barbecue restaurant on time.
The whole barbecue restaurant was full, the room was extremely lively and full of people.
In the seating area at the door, there were four groups of people waiting, mostly university students from Hongdae and tourists to check in.
The poster in the lobby on the first floor is a photo of Kim Jong Kook and HAHA.
There are also name tags of the seven characters in "Runningman" at the food outlet.
On the wall at the entrance of the stairs, there are signatures and check-in photos of many celebrities and artists.
The waiter led Jin Qixuan to the private room on the second floor. As soon as he entered the room, more than ten people looked at him simultaneously.
“Well, here we are, everyone is here.”
Upon hearing this, Jin Qixuan's heart skipped a beat.
I am a newbie, but I am the last one to arrive. I am going to die! !
So
Jin Qixuan quickly bowed and apologized:
"Cui sent mida..."
Cha Taixuan said with a smile:
"It's okay, it's okay, we just arrived early, Qixuan, please take a seat."
"Inside."
The seats in the room are long, Cha Taehyun takes the main seat, and the others sit Row left and right to the back. Jin Qixuan changed his shoes, looked around, and sat down at the end.
Opposite Jin Qixuan is Park Bo Gum.
Park Bo Gum showed a smile that looked good and waved to Jin Qixuan.
Jin Qixuan also smiled and waved to him.
Although they are an agent and both know each other, this is the first time they have met.
Jin Qixuan is on the line every day at three o'clock, while Park Bo Gum is filming, so he can't bump into each other in terms of time.
Usually, Sheng Bingxu arranges for Jin Qixuan first, and then goes to Park Bo Gum.
After all, Jin Qixuan has little to do and can finish it in a short time without delaying Park Bo Gum's schedule.
The two were greeting each other, and Cha Taehyun introduced to everyone:
"This is our newly signed actor, Kim Jong Kook's nephew, Jin Qixuan. Qixuan, please say hello to everyone."
After hearing this, Jin Qixuan immediately stood up and bowed before he could warm his buttocks:
"Nei, Aniha Saiyou, Jin Qixuan, I am honored to work with all the seniors. Please take care of me."
After Song Zhongji heard this, he looked at Jin Qixuan in surprise:
“Are you Brother Zhong Guo’s nephew?”
“My grandma is his even mother.”
"Dafa!"
Song Joong Ki served as a regular guest on "Running Man" for a year. Later, because of his funny image in the show, he conflicted with the company's pretty boy. He was afraid that the audience would skip the scene, so he finally took it upon himself to get off.
However, although it didn't last long, he still had a good relationship with Kim Jong Kook.
After all, when the show just started, it was basically a group confrontation. He was always in a group with Kim Jong Kook, and the show was positioned as a dog-headed strategist...
For this reason, he was still very enthusiastic about Jin Qixuan.
“I didn’t expect Brother Zhong Guo’s nephew to be so handsome.”
Im Joo-hwan, who was beside Song Joong-ki, sighed with emotion.
After hearing this, Jin Qixuan quickly waved his hand and said: "No, senior nim is really handsome."
"We are all our own people, don't think of seniors, just call me brother."
< br>
The people in the room were all from the previous agency that Cha Taehyun left with in 2012.
The youngest Park Bo Gum has also known them for four or five years, and they are very close to each other.
"Inside, Brother Zhou Huan."
Then Cha Taehyun introduced Jin Qixuan to his friend who co-founded the agency with him. He also didn't ask him to call him director or anything like that, just brother.
Then they introduced their agent, who was also called brother.
Until the end, Cha Taehyun looked at Jin Qixuan with a smile and raised his eyebrows: "There is no need to call me senior in private."
Jin Qixuan understood, snickered in his heart, and said respectfully:
"Uncle, uncle."
Cha Taixuan didn't give them time to react, and pressed his hand to Jin Qixuan to signal him to sit down. Next, he said:
"There are several things to do at the dinner today. Let me tell you one by one. First, we celebrate the third anniversary of the establishment of Blossom Entertainment!"
Everyone applauded.
Cha Taixuan looked around with a smile, poured wine and raised a glass:
"In the blink of an eye, three years have passed. Hey Robben, let's have a drink together!"
"Wow~"
Everyone cheered and raised glasses to pour wine.
Jin Qixuan looked around and saw that there was only soju and beer on the table and no water, so he looked at Sheng Bingxu as if asking for help.
Noticing Jin Qixuan's gaze, Sheng Bingxu glanced at his cup and asked quietly: "Don't you want to drink?"
"Yes."
Sheng Bingxu understood, turned to Cha Taixuan and said:
"Qi Xuan doesn't drink, and Bao Jian doesn't drink well, so let them both drink?"
Cha Taixuan stretched out his hand and gestured After a while: "Can't you drink even one cup?"
"It's okay with me, let Qi Xuan drink water."
Park Bo Gum originally wanted to express his goodwill to Jin Qi Xuan, but what he ignored was the topic of Cha Tae Hyun holding the cup - [Company established Third anniversary].
With such a good atmosphere, no matter how bad your drinking capacity is, you won’t get drunk after just one drink, right?
Therefore, Jin Qixuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and said:
"One drink is still okay."
It's not that Jin Qixuan doesn't know how to drink. The main reason is that he doesn't know how his body tastes. Afraid of saying the wrong thing after drinking too much.
It would be terrible if his most important secret was exposed.
