Chapter 155: Reading of the Ghost Script
Early August.
The crew of "The Sweatless Party" spent a month completing the filming of all the prison plots.
Taking advantage of the fact that the filming location had just changed, Jin Qixuan and the director took a day off to shoot the cover of the "GQ Korea" fashion magazine Jin Jiu.
The cover shoot of fashion magazine Jin September is similar to that of the annual issue. Each magazine will invite "top names" to shoot.
In other countries, there may be a certain big-name artist or supermodel appearing on the covers of two or three monthly fashion magazines.
But on the peninsula, this situation does not exist.
Jin Qixuan is very lucky.
Since his debut, he has been favored and cared for by Editor-in-Chief Chi of GQ magazine. So far, we have collaborated with GQ magazine four times, and the sales volume every time has been high. Among them, the sales volume of the March 2016 issue was undoubtedly the biggest.
Jin Qixuan was also invited to attend the GQ Kim September cover shoot, which was also his expectation.
However, among the five first-line fashion magazines on the Peninsula, only GQ invited Jin Qixuan.
It is normal that the three major women's magazines did not invite Jin Qixuan in the ninth issue.
The requirements for transgender women's magazines are very high, or a top luxury brand will make exclusive high-end clothing for the artist, and sponsor a magazine to shoot for him.
Either this man can control two-way trendy items.
Obviously, Jin Qixuan neither has the luxury to name names nor can he control the transgender fashion.
Of course, this also has something to do with Jin Qixuan's tough image.
Even if it is a gay-themed movie, Jin Qixuan still wants to be on the offensive side.
However, Jin Qixuan cannot control it, but there are people who can.
This issue of "Voguekorea" magazine invited GD, the artist with the best fashion resources in the peninsula, to shoot the cover of Kim 9.
Speaking of which, before Jin Qixuan made his debut, G-Dragon could be said to have visited these two first-line men's magazines, including the three major women's magazines, just like going to his own back garden.
Since his debut in 2006, he has led the group to achieve brilliant results one after another and has remained popular ever since.
Although Bigbang's current domestic albums are dominated by EXO in terms of sound source and sales, GD's fans are not limited to the small peninsula.
For this reason, after he went global, many international big names have extended an olive branch to him.
The LV brand felt the international appeal of K-pop and directly launched an airdrop towards Yang Juhua.
Injected 100 billion won into YG Entertainment and invited G-Dragon to become the peninsula’s first LV brand ambassador.
And GD’s fans are really awesome.
In one year, the sales volume of LV products in the peninsula increased by 136% compared with the previous period.
Therefore, GD’s fashion resources are unique to this peninsula.
As for Jin Qixuan, he is currently in the stage of accepting endorsements from local fashion brands.
However, don’t look at GD’s current glory, the number one fashion resource on the Peninsula. But it won't be long before he enlists in the army.
When he comes out, he will find that things have changed...
The photoshoot for fashion magazine Jinjiu has no theme, it is purely a showcase of the most luxurious new products or hot models from each brand.
To put it bluntly, top luxury brands also want to see whether the models in the current magazine can clearly express the characteristics of their products.
Take Bae Suzy as an example. She is currently the third most fashionable female artist among the post-90s generation.
But in every issue of the fashion magazine she shoots, her neck and wrists are empty.
Does she not want to wear it?
There is absolutely no luxury jewelry sponsorship.
Looking at the accessories worn by Kong Xiaozhen in the first-line fashion magazines, they are jewels...
The brand sponsoring Jin Qixuan in this issue is also an old cooperation.
Gucci new clothing + Bvlgari octo watch.
Since the main idea is to showcase the product, there is no need to go to various places to take pictures, just set up the scenery board in the studio in the GQ building.
The shooting process is not complicated. They are all static shots of concave facial expressions, focusing on post-processing...
The shooting process will also be recorded by GQ and edited into behind-the-scenes photos for the September e-issue.
Although the content is not complicated, it still took a day to complete.
The day after tomorrow.
After finishing filming on the set of "The Sweatless Party" in the morning, Jin Qixuan took another half-day off in the afternoon and rushed to TVN to participate in the script reading meeting for "Goblin".
In fact, according to Jin Qixuan’s previous habit, he would often arrive at the venue more than half an hour in advance.
But as his schedule increases day by day, especially when he takes time off to attend another event, he is lucky to arrive on time.
Fortunately, we were lucky today, there was no traffic jam, and Jin Qixuan arrived five minutes early.
Coincidentally, when Jin Qixuan got off the bus, he met Yoo In Na who arrived at the same time.
Although the two parties have not officially met, thanks to the influence of the middleman Li Zhien, the first meeting with each other was still very cordial.
Therefore, Yoo In Na stopped, stretched out her hand towards Jin Qixuan with crooked eyebrows, and said hello:
"Hello, Jin Qixuan xi~"
Anytime a beautiful member of the opposite sex uses this kind of gesture He greets everyone with a coquettish voice. (Except for the Bayman) he is a normal male with some thoughts in his mind.
But Jin Qixuan didn't have that idea.
It wasn't because he was affected by the gay-themed movies being filmed, but because Jin Qixuan knew that this girl's coquettish voice was natural, not something she deliberately created.
After being influenced by Jin Shaoyu, Jin Qixuan listened to her radio program for the first time and was captured by her gentle and slightly magnetic voice.
Therefore, Jin Qixuan, who has become a fan of Yoo In Na, will listen to her DJ radio program to learn about the hot topics in his spare time to avoid being unable to keep up with the real time.
"Senior, good afternoon!"
Jin Qixuan quickly stretched out his hands and gave a virtual squeeze to the palm she handed over.
Seeing this, Yoo In Na was stunned.
I couldn’t figure out for a while whether he was a gentleman who paid attention to etiquette or whether he was a germophobe.
Seeing Yoo In Na’s reaction, Kim Qixuan showed his hands and explained jokingly:
"Senior, these hands of mine are not very clean after just "killing" someone."
Staring at the yellowish calluses on Jin Qixuan's palms, Yoo In Na instantly wanted to be dirty.
Will these calluses really feel comfortable?
Because Jin Qixuan was very upset by the scorching sun, he didn't notice Yoo In Na's strange eyes.
Jin Qixuan pointed to the blazing sun, then pointed to the TVN building and said:
"Senior, let's go in first, the sun is really too poisonous..."
Because he was wearing non-seasonal clothes, beads of sweat were already forming on Jin Qixuan's forehead in just two sentences.
Seeing this, Yoo In Na realized it and said:
“Ah! Let’s go quickly!”
When the two of them walked into the TVN building, the air-conditioning air that hit their faces made Jin Qixuan groan unconsciously.
Seeing Jin Qixuan let out a comfortable "ah", out of curiosity, Yoo Inna asked doubtfully:
"If you are so afraid of the heat, why do you still wear so much? Is it because it is delicate? "That's not true. I just came over from the set and had to rush back to film after reading the script. I thought it would be troublesome to change clothes. After all, there is air conditioning in the car and in the building."
"On the set?? Ah!!! So you are talking about "killing" in filming!"
Seeing Yoo In Na's sudden reaction, Jin Qixuan was stunned and asked in surprise:
"Otherwise? I can really kill people!"
"I thought you emm..."
Yoo In Na, who didn't know how to round out this sentence, changed the subject very abruptly and said ：
"Don't call me senior. Just call me sister like Zhien. I won't say honorifics to you anymore~"
Jin Qixuan nodded:
"Okay Yes, Sister Renna.”
While entering the elevator, Yoo In Na gently slapped herself in the blind spot of Jin Qixuan's perspective.
"12th floor, thank you."
After reporting the floor location, the two of them stopped communicating in the elevator.
"Ding!"
Arrived on the 12th floor, the two walked out of the elevator and came to the conference room of the "Ghost" crew.
As soon as you enter the door, you greet the staff as usual.
Then, Jin Qixuan pulled out a chair from the table and asked Yoo Inna to sit down.
“Thank you~”
Seeing this, Yoo In Na smiled sweetly and praised:
"He's a very gentleman~ It doesn't quite match the image Zhien said. It seems you have to get in touch with yourself to understand."
When Jin Qixuan sat down, he asked curiously: "Oh? What did she say? Me?”
“She said forget it, you should ask her yourself”
Hearing this, Jin Qixuan knew that Yoo In Na was definitely not the dream image of 900 million girls after hearing what Lee Ji Eun said about her.
After a while, three actors, Gong Yoo, Lee Dong Wook, and Kim Go Eun, entered the scene one after another.
Then Jin Qixuan stood up three times in a row and bowed to say hello to the seniors.
Perhaps due to same-sex repulsion, the feedback given by the two actors to Jin Qixuan was very bland.
However, the heroine Kim Go Eun proactively greeted Jin Qixuan with a smile.
Part of the reason why she took the initiative to say hello was because of Jin Qixuan's outstanding appearance, and more importantly, the two had a common friend - Park Bo Gum.
Therefore, Jin Qixuan naturally greeted him with a smile.
Following Gao Jinyin in the finale were the director and screenwriter.
"Screenwriter nim."
"Director nim."
Everyone stood up to say hello.
After everyone was seated, Director Li Yingfu said:
"Let's say hello first, and then let's start reading the script."
"Everyone should be familiar with me. But actually this is my first time writing a fantasy-themed script. I'm not sure about the future response. I’m not sure what will happen, but even though I’m very nervous, the thought of finishing this drama with everyone gives me a lot of confidence. Although I’ve only written four episodes, I will try my best to complete the script as soon as possible. ”
“Pa bang bang”
When screenwriter Kim Eun-sook finished speaking, everyone gave warm applause, and then Gong Liu started:
"Hello everyone, I am Gong Liu who plays the ghost, and I am very happy to meet you. I am also the first to talk about magical themes. It’s just a one-time performance, (scratching my head nervously) but I will try my best to complete it.”
“Hello everyone, I am Kim Go-eun who plays Eun-mo. (Twice shyly) I will work hard!”
"Hello everyone, I am Yoo In Na who plays Sunny. (Holds her chest and bows, smiling sweetly) It is an honor for me to be able to star with you all. I will try my best to do my best."
"Hello everyone. , I play the role of Lee Dong-wook, the messenger from the underworld who suffers from amnesia. I will do my best, thank you.”
Lee Dong-wook doesn’t like the feeling of being watched by everyone, so he speaks very quickly when introducing himself. Quick, the words seemed to be hot on the tongue, and they were finished in less than three seconds.
On the other hand, Jin Qixuan was neither humble nor arrogant, and had the demeanor of a general. He stood up and introduced himself loudly:
"Hello everyone, I am Jin Qixuan who plays Liu Dehua. It is an honor to co-star in screenwriter Jin's new work with four charming seniors. . As the youngest member of the group, I will do my best to play the role well. Thank you for your continued support in the future!"
After everyone's self-introduction, the script reading officially began.
"The people call him a god, and he looks like a god of war when he fights bloody battles and overcomes obstacles."
Although everyone was more reserved because it was their first meeting, they couldn't help but there were some funny parts in the script, and the atmosphere gradually gradually changed. Be cheerful.
However, during the subsequent reading of the script, Jin Qixuan finally met Kim Go-eun, who in private smiled like a Shiba Inu, and her aura of serious acting was really strong.
He cries when he cries, laughs when he talks, and his expressions and tone change so quickly that most people can't keep up.
So, it’s not unfair that Lee Hyeri didn’t win the Best Newcomer in the TV category at the Baeksang Awards Ceremony.
Even Jin Qixuan dare not say that he is equal to her in terms of acting skills.
During the reading of the script, the plot that contributed the most laughter was the cliché of ghosts and messengers from the underworld falling in love and killing each other.
Actually, the script was not written in such detail. Kong Yoo and Lee Dong Wook completely improvised and acted out the sense of CP by reading their lines.
Although Kim Qixuan did not have many lines, he was able to express his feelings in an instant. Changing roles is not easy either.
For example, in the first sentence, he asked Gong Yoo for a credit card with a playful smile, but in the next sentence, he looked cold, like an emotionless AI, giving Kim Go-eun advice on life in a cold and calm tone.
Five hours later, the "Goblin" script reading meeting officially ended as Kim Go Eun smiled sweetly and said the last sentence in the script to Gong Yoo, "Sarang Hey~".
“Although I want to continue listening, the screenwriter’s script hasn’t been written yet. Thank you for your hard work!”
After speaking, the director took the lead in applauding.
"Pa bang bang"
Then everyone applauded together.
Afterwards, all the actors and staff took a group photo together.
After the cameraman shouted "3.2.1", everyone shouted in unison: "Ghost, come on!"
"Click!"
The flash lights up and the photoshoot ends.
The following is an interview to record the feelings of several actors about this script reading.
“Hello everyone, I am Jin Qixuan, who plays the third chaebol. Now the script reading of "Goblin" has ended. Being able to be with so many powerful seniors, I was a little nervous at first. Although it is a bit hard , but the atmosphere of the whole process is still very good. It is worthy of the imagination of screenwriter Jin Eun-sook. I feel that a very interesting TV series will be born. I will prepare it carefully and hope that the audience will support it!"
After speaking, Jin Qixuan bowed to the camera.
After the remaining four interviews and records were completed, the script reading meeting was officially over.
The launch time of the ghosts was also set at the end, at the end of August or the beginning of September.
In the normal process, there will be a dinner party after the script reading meeting, mainly to allow the actors to quickly get to know each other and avoid feeling unfamiliar.
After all, only when the actors are familiar with each other can they create different sparks during filming.
However, because Jin Qixuan had to rush back to the crew to film, it was a pity that he missed this very interesting dinner.
