Chapter 207 The second male lead’s choice
Nine o’clock the next morning.
In the business signing room of Samsung Electronics, Jin Qixuan met the staff member who returned the watch to him at the charity dinner.
But when he saw him bowing to him first to say hello, the doubts lingering in Jin Qixuan's heart were instantly resolved.
I see...
Let’s not mention the status of Fuguihua for now.
Based on the proportion of shares she holds in Samsung C&T, the largest shareholder of Samsung Electronics, there is no problem in arranging Jin Qixuan as the spokesperson for the new phone.
Jin Qixuan also wanted to get some information from him, but the other party was as strict as Kim Jong Kook.
I don’t know what to ask, or else I just smile and don’t answer.
Since he couldn't ask anything, Jin Qixuan stopped talking and listened quietly to the person in charge of the S8 series talking about the new phone and the additions and upgrades of previous series, the advantages, purchase points and new concepts of the phone.
Jin Qixuan not only had to listen carefully, but also memorize it.
Because I have to take an exam.
Even at the new phone launch conference in April, it was possible that Jin Qixuan would take the stage to explain the introduction.
Samsung focuses on making the most of everything and not spending money in vain.
Normally, the prohibitions in the contract for products endorsed by Jin Qixuan only amount to four pages.
The work content is not too much, I usually just take photos of the changing seasons, and occasionally attend events, new product launches and the like.
But this contract for Samsung mobile phones is twelve pages long.
It will take nearly 20 minutes to read the above words carefully.
Moreover, there are many rules and regulations, which really brings the value and role of this spokesperson to the extreme.
A little carelessness may involve violating the regulations.
This billion is hard for a thief to earn.
Although Jin Qixuan complained in his heart, it was absolutely impossible for him to give up this endorsement.
After all, being able to endorse the Emperor's products not only increases one's worth, but also one's status. It is completely an honor.
So much so that if an ordinary artist can receive an endorsement from Samsung, his family will have to go to the temple to burn incense.
At eleven o'clock, the lecture ends.
Then it was Jin Qixuan’s turn to introduce the product of the new machine according to the PPT.
Reciting things is not a problem for Jin Qixuan. After all, he has to memorize lines a lot, so his temporary memory is pretty good.
Let’s go through the overall explanation, not to mention 100% restoration, but there are still some tones.
Subsequently, Jin Qixuan received an official endorsement contract for the new Samsung S8 phone and an endorsement fee of 1 billion.
After signing the contract, Jin Qixuan, Sheng Bingxu and the person in charge had lunch in the Samsung Electronics cafeteria.
Needless to say, the food served in the Samsung staff meal is really excellent. It is similar to the domestic 199 buffet food. The most important thing is that you can also eat fruits.
(The prices of fruits on the peninsula can be understood by looking at the fruit stall next door/funny)
Although Samsung is harsh, it still understands the principle of wanting the horses to run and be fed with enough fodder.
After lunch, the two of them rushed to JTBC TV station to prepare for the signing.
In the signing room.
As soon as Kim Qixuan and screenwriter Baek Mi-kyung met, they felt as excited as screenwriter Kim Eun-sook had finally made an appointment with Gong Yoo for filming.
"Wow, this is the perfect leading actor in my mind. I'm so happy that you can play the role."
"No, Director Bai, you wrote this character so well! I watched it again and I feel This role fits my own image so well that I feel compelled to play it. Please take care of me in the future."
Jin Qixuan bowed politely.
"Don't worry about this. I have a hunch that this role will definitely make you shine."
"Then I will rely on screenwriter Bai for support in the future."
Signing the contract is quite easy. quick.
JTBC TV station does not pay half of the money first like other TV stations. It transfers the full amount directly on the spot. It is indeed a wealthy type.
After the signing, screenwriter Bai Meijing chatted with Jin Qixuan about the characters and plot.
When I talk about the plot, I mainly want to link it with Jin Qixuan’s newly released movie to gain popularity.
After all, the heroine Du Fengshun is the superhuman version of Xiao Shimin, and they are all heroines who punish evil and promote good.
The plot has been enhanced, and there are benefits for both sides.
Jin Qixuan feels that this is understandable.
Just like in the previous plot of "Goblin", there is a scene where the male and female protagonists go to the theater to watch "Train to Busan".
Thinking about it this way, it is quite interesting for Jin Qixuan to watch his own movie in the TV series.
After talking about the plot, we talked about the characters again.
The male and female leads have been decided, and the second male and female leads have to audition, but for some supporting roles that don’t have too many roles, screenwriter Bai Meijing still has great ideas.
"Qixuan, can you invite Park Bo Gum to make a guest appearance and let him play the heroine's brother."
You can see the ambition of writer Baek Mi Kyung here.
Kim Kee-hyun and Park Bo-gum co-star in JTBC's new drama.
Don't worry about the script, as soon as the news spread that the two popular traffic figures were reunited, the gimmicks were immediately full, and they were able to win over many die-hard viewers from tVN next door.
"He may not have enough time..." "I know he has to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and he has been reviewing. But doesn't he start school in early March? We will start shooting at the beginning of next month, and the concentrated shooting will not delay him. How long, if he appears in the future, the time can be discussed.”
Having said this, Jin Qixuan could only try his best to persuade.
After the chat, screenwriter Bai Meijing took him to the audition room to watch the audition for the second male lead.
"Isn't it inconvenient for me?"
In this regard, Jin Qixuan had some slight resistance.
"It doesn't matter. You can think of it as looking at your future partner. After all, the supporting role has been chosen, which will better highlight the charm of your protagonist."
There are many examples of male leads auditioning for supporting roles.
For example, Jin Qixuan’s boss is often dragged along by the screenwriter/director to watch the auditions for supporting roles, and sometimes even needs to act as supporting roles.
Subsequently, at Screenwriter Bai's kind invitation, Jin Qixuan reluctantly entered the room and pretended to be sexy...
There are four seats in total, one for the main director Lee Hyung-min, one for the screenwriter Baek Mi-kyung, a JTBC producer and a casting director.
After Jin Qixuan bowed and said hello to the three of them, he sat on a small stool on the side and watched the second male lead audition.
The character of Er Guodou is an upright policeman. He is also the heroine's crush in the early stage and the hero's love rival in the later stage.
Therefore, in order to match the male lead Jin Qixuan, the second male lead must be tall and handsome.
Otherwise the screenwriter will be called stupid by the audience.
The female protagonist is so blind that she doesn’t like the male protagonist played by Jin Qixuan, but likes the ugly second male lead.
Therefore, since Jin Qixuan has been confirmed to star, the casting requirements for the second male lead have undoubtedly increased a lot.
In fact, for the role of the second male lead, Jin Qixuan’s first choice after reading the script was Park Seo-joon, who had worked with him and played the role of a policeman.
Park Seo-joon is a perfect supporting role for Kim Ki-hyun in terms of looks, height and acting skills.
If Park Bo Gum is included in the cast, it will be a complete Wanyan troupe.
Jin Qixuan thought very well.
But because he declined the male lead role in "Third-rate Road", the crew there was already contacting Park Seo-joon to star.
When the scripts are almost the same, any fool knows how to choose between the first male and the second male.
After all, in the movie "Brave Citizen", although there are not many scenes, Park Seo-joon's image of a just policeman is really outstanding.
Soon, after passing the two auditioning actors, the next actor was Kim Ji-soo.
Kim Ji-soo, Jin Qixuan, met him when he visited Li Zhien.
He played the role of the fourteenth old man in "Bu Bu Jing Xin: Li", and finally married the winner of life who knew the tree.
Jin Zhizhu was stunned when he saw Jin Qixuan, and then a hint of joy appeared on his face visible to the naked eye.
Although he wasn't very familiar with Jin Qixuan, he had heard that Jin Qixuan was a very nice person. If he could say a few words for himself, he would definitely win the role.
Therefore, he specially bowed to Jin Qixuan after the audition.
After he left, the casting director and screenwriter Bai Meijing were very satisfied with the actor.
Except that his appearance is a bit worse than that of Jin Qixuan, he is pretty good in other aspects.
"Qixuan, what do you think of the actor who just played the role of Guo Dou?"
Looking at the questioning looks from the four people, Jin Qixuan did not answer for the time being, and said evasively:
"Let's take a look at the other actors first. They are all here, let's give them a chance to audition."
Although Jin Qixuan basically doesn't need to audition now, he came from that time after all, and he knows these things. How much street/new actors need this opportunity.
"Yes, please come in next."
Within a few seconds, a tall and tall actor entered the room.
"Good director, good screenwriter. My name is Go Kyung-pyo, and the role I am auditioning for is Gudou."
Kim Qixuan knows the actor Go Kyung-pyo.
He knew Kim Go Eun, and even gave her a coffee cart when the ghost turned on the phone.
(Kim Go-eun is Yoo Hye-young’s high school classmate, and Go Kyung-pyo is Yoo Hye-young’s college senior.)
The casting director looked at Go Kyung-pyo up and down for a while and asked:
"You made a strong impression in "SNLKorea", but you don't seem to have appeared in too many serious works, right?"
"Yes, my dream for an actor's life is to become a big-time actor , so I will try many roles, but because I have relatively few works, everyone thinks that I am a comedian.”
(Go Kyung-pyo himself is very good, but after being snatched by Kim Qixuan, he has now become a famous actor. A little transparent in the entertainment industry...)
"Well, let's start when you're ready."
"Okay."
……
At the end of the audition, Go Kyung Pyo bowed and said goodbye.
After watching the auditions of several actors, Jin Qixuan was about to leave.
Because the time for the magazine shoot is coming soon.
Seeing this, screenwriter Bai Meijing asked Jin Qixuan for his opinion:
“After seeing so many actors auditioning, Qixuan, who do you think will have a better chemistry with you?”
“ Hmm... I think Kuk Doo No. 4 (Go Kyung Pyo) is pretty good, he’s pretty handsome, and he’s tall.”
"Okay, we will carefully consider your suggestions."
Jin Qixuan nodded, stood up and bowed:
"Then I will leave first, I have other plans."
"Okay."
(Kook Doo-original actor Kim Ji-soo was involved in campus bullying when he was a student, and the author replaced him. He chose to compensate Go Kyung-pyo for being the second male lead. After all, he robbed him of his famous work. He's quite aggressive. I look pretty cool~)
