Chapter 139 The unstoppable visiting team
After Lee Je-hoon's acting skills were adjusted, the entire crew shot at a very fast speed. While Lee Joo-yong was so happy, he was already thinking about adding some new ideas.
After all, the budget given by the company and the specific shooting time signed by the actor are fixed. If he uses less, he will not be given half a dime, so it is better to strive for excellence to create a good movie.
Xu Xian will occasionally go back to Seoul to catch up on a schedule that cannot be postponed. Park Xiangmin has also been quiet since the last small trick failed, but it seems more like he is about to explode in silence.
Xu Xian is very satisfied with the busy but fulfilling life, and there is also a nanny named Li Menglong taking care of him. Whether it is life or interpersonal relationships on the set, Li Menglong takes care of everything.
Seohyun only needs to be responsible for filming good dramas, be herself, and lead a comfortable life. When she accidentally met Sooyoung after about ten days, she actually pointed at Seohyun and swore that she was fat.
As the youngest member of Girls' Generation, Seohyun is as sensible as a parent and constantly pays attention to each Unnie's situation. She is always the first to stand up when needed.
No relationship is one-sided, and girls are no exception. The reason why Xu Xian cares so much about these sisters is naturally because she is infinitely favored by them.
No matter how big the storm is, as long as there is Ernie in front of him, it will not be Xu Xian's turn to face the storm. That's why Xu Xiancai maintains his pure nature in the complicated entertainment industry and still has zero scandals after debuting for so many years.
So for Seohyun's first film, it's not too much for these girls to come visit the class, and many staff members are also looking forward to it.
However, they were destined to be disappointed. Li Soonkyu and the others tried to come several times but were blocked by Li Menglong. Li Menglong’s official reason was that they had already been to Jeju Island, but his dirty thoughts in private were that they were here to spend money. To please this staff?
However, after blocking a circle, one person was still missed. When Xu Xian and the others were filming in the distance, a staff member trotted up to him. Hearing that a member of Girls' Generation was coming to visit the class, Li Menglong walked over. Wondering who it could be.
Yoona got out of the nanny car and was signing autographs for some male staff members who came over after hearing the news. At the same time, she was asking about Xu Xian's performance in the group.
She may be the girl who understands things best in the crew. After all, she has been filming dramas since her debut, and she is still filming recently.
She was also very familiar with some of the nastiness in the group. She suffered a lot when she first took on the leading role, and no one reminded her at that time. So when she learned about the maknae's filming, she rushed to an all-night filming schedule and made a special trip to support the maknae.
For Yoona, Seohyun has always been a very special member. Kim Taeyeon and Pani are famous conjoined twins in the team, and her relationship with Seohyun is not bad either.
The two have known each other since they were very young, and they are about the same age, and in terms of personality, she may be more like the maknae.
From the beginning when she was a trainee, Seohyun has been urging her behind her. There was a time when Yoona felt bored, but with all the sadness after her debut, these have turned into the best memories.
Deep down in her heart, Yoona has always felt deeply sorry for this maknae. As the second maknae, she felt that she did not take good care of this sister and failed to fulfill her obligations as a sister.
Although everyone loves and cares about the maknae, if we have to rank them first, second, and third, Yoona is undoubtedly the one who cares the most.
You can also see it from the dining car behind you. Usually when other celebrities come to visit, most of them bring some drinks. There are also a lot of people who come over with a snack truck, but not many people like Yoona bring a car to grill steaks. So But it's all money.
But Yoona didn't care. This was also to stand up for the maknae and tell the people in the team that she, Seohyun, was also protected by Noona. At the same time, eating people has a short mouth, so some small tricks that can't hurt people but are quite annoying can be put aside.
When Li Menglong saw Yoona, he smiled in relief, but when he saw the steak restaurant, his brows knitted together again, especially when he saw the group of people with two yuan in each hand, Li Menglong felt that what they were eating was money. ah.
Not bothering to say hello to Yoona, Li Menglong rushed to the dining car like a miser: "Yeah, one piece for each person. There will be a lunch box in a while, don't you want to eat?"
"Tch, Yoona hasn't said anything yet, it's your turn to feel bad!"
"That is, are you Seohyun's assistant or Yoona's assistant?"
"You mind me, hurry up and get to work. Is it time to eat?" Li Menglong and this group of people were used to fighting, and they drove him away with a tigerish face. Everyone also smiled and dispersed.
"Xuxian is filming, I will take you to find her." After clearly telling the chef in the dining car that each person was limited to one piece of steak, he came over to find Yoona.
"Okay, but let them eat the steak." Yoona looked around smartly and whispered in Li Menglong's ear: "They are all American and not expensive!"
Being tickled by the air sprayed by the girl, Li Menglong took a few steps back and out of habit stretched out his hand to hit Yoona on the head: "If it's not expensive, then it's money. If you have money, you can't..."
Li Menglong felt embarrassed in the middle of the conversation. He and Yoona were not familiar with each other. They had just met a few times, and the surprise in Yoona's heart could be understood from the other person's stunned expression.
Turning around silently, Li Menglong didn't know what to say, so he might as well take her directly to Xu Xian. But after taking a few steps, he was patted hard on the shoulder, and then a beautiful figure rushed in front of him.
"No wonder the maknae and the others always say good things about you, you are really a nice person." Yoona stood in front of him and said seriously.
These words are definitely from the heart. Everyone thinks that they make money easily, and no one except their parents will remind them to spend less money. Li Menglong appears out of nowhere and simply writes that I am a good person. On the head.
"Haha, just don't blame me. The main reason is that it's not easy for you to make some money!" Li Menglong replied and stopped talking.
However, it was obvious that Yoona was more familiar with her than all the other girls. She could be said to have a high emotional intelligence. She began to take the initiative to chat with Li Menglong: "How is the maknae's life in the group? Is anyone bullying her?"
"Bullying?"
"For example, there is no hot water to drink, there is no chair for her on the set, and the lunch box she eats is always cold..." Yoona said a lot directly.
"Is this how you got into your current drama?" Li Menglong asked incredulously.
"I'm the heroine, who dares? Besides, I'm so cute, so they wouldn't treat me like this." Yoona said arrogantly.
"Xuxian is quite cute, so no one treats her like this!"
"Tch! The first drama is like this, especially for singers like us who turn to actors. Everyone is very repulsive. You should take more care of her and buy her some snacks." Yoona thought of her previous few scenes. He looked miserable when he was in a guest role, he said a little bleakly.
Li Menglong didn't explain much. The other party wouldn't believe it anyway, so let her see for herself. Facts speak louder than words.
Yoona is Girls' Generation's centerpiece and one of the top three on the popularity list. Almost any male would come over to say hello to her along the way, and Yoona would obediently return the favor.
But what surprised her was that every time after saying hello to her, everyone would say a few words to Li Menglong, and it wasn't just empty words like hello: What are you having for lunch today? Why don't you and I take care of you together this afternoon? The extras have been found. If the director is dissatisfied, please give me a nice word. If you have time, you can play a few games with me in the evening. I'm really unwilling to lose yesterday. Li Menglong laughed and dealt with each one, and said to the middle-aged man at the end: "It's okay to play chess, but we have to make our Xu Xian look more beautiful in the future."
"What does he do? Assistant cameraman?" Yoona asked curiously.
"The main cameraman, he took all the shots of Xu Xian!" Li Menglong didn't understand what she was asking.
"Are you familiar with the main cameraman?"
"It's okay. Xu Xian is quite familiar with him. He's just a bad chess player, but Xu Xian can beat him for several games." Li Menglong complimented Xu Xian in passing.
Behind her, Yoona was a little depressed. The two of them focused on completely different things. In her eyes, Li Menglong looked like a scheming man. He was the chief cameraman. Why was he talking about someone who was the most important person in the crew? It's like being a handyman here.
Li Menglong naturally didn't know what Yoona behind him was thinking, and he wouldn't care if he knew it. Everyone's thoughts are different.
The two walked to the shooting location one after another. They had already rested there, and the cameramen had gone to eat. Seo Hyun Jung and Lee Je Hoon gathered around the director to watch their performance in the camera.
Yoona didn't dare to interrupt, but stood behind and stood on tiptoe to watch. After watching for a while, Yoona was a little shocked. The maknae's acting skills were a bit unbelievable!
However, according to what she has known about the maknae for many years, this girl has no acting skills. Every time she comes to class, she ranks at the bottom with her blunt acting skills. This is why Seohyun has never appeared in TV dramas.
But is the person in the camera still the maknae? Yoona felt very strange, as if you kindly brought a thousand yuan to see your sister, but they just gave you a hundred thousand pocket money, saying that it was not enough.
Not sure what the director said, Xu Xian and Li Dixun both laughed shyly. Li Zhouyong stretched out his hand and nodded to their heads, and stood up from his seat.
"Unnie!" Xu Xian rushed over happily as soon as he saw Yoona.
Yoona also patted her back happily, but she quickly broke away from her arms and turned to greet the director: "I am Girls' Generation's Yoona. If Seohyun messes with you during filming, I’m angry, please forgive me!”
"You don't have to be so polite. Seohyun is so lovable. We are just waiting for Seohyun to sing a song for me when we finish filming!" Li Zhouyong seemed to be looking at his daughter.
I have to say that everyone who has been with Xu Xian for a long time likes to tease Xu Xian. The little girl's mixture of shyness and irritability is really cute.
Seeing the conversation between Seohyun and the director, Yoona knew that the relationship was really good, and if the director could privately agree, it meant that she had nothing to say about her acting skills, so Yoona was completely relieved.
The group of people walked out to the dining car talking and laughing together. Mainly Yoona and Seohyun were chatting, while Li Menglong was chatting with the director.
I don’t know why Yoona’s ears are always paying attention to the conversation between the two people at the back, and she heard some intermittently. What they discussed was really complicated.
At first, I was talking about the crew’s expenses in the past two days. Later, we talked about some new ideas that the director had recently. Li Menglong directly opposed most of them, and the other party also accepted them. Finally, when they arrived at the door, the two of them discussed the later publicity matters.
Seeing Lee Mong-ryong in front of him biting his steak bitterly and bitterly, Yoona curiously asked Seohyun what exactly was Lee Mong-ryong responsible for in this crew?
"It's hard to say. Anyway, everyone likes to come and chat with Menglong Oppa when they have problems." Xu Xian picked up a piece of beef cut by Li Menglong and stuffed it into his mouth.
"He's an assistant, okay? He should take good care of you. What's the point of helping everywhere!" Yoona thought to herself.
But when she returned to Xu Xian's room for a short rest, all these thoughts disappeared, because a hotel suite was made to feel like a family by the two of them.
The most obvious thing is that the small kitchen, which is more decorative than practical, actually has several bottles of spices, and half of them have been used.
"Do you usually cook by yourself?"
"Ah! Sometimes when we are filming night scenes, oppa will make some midnight snacks for me."
"Why don't you call her so affectionate? You two are living together now." Yoona poked the itchy flesh on Xu Xian's waist and said a little dirty.
"Onie, don't make such a joke!"
"No!"
Those who come to visit the cast usually have to meet with everyone on the crew, but Yoona simply skipped this step in this weird crew.
Because whenever there was time, the staff would take the initiative to come over and chat, including the director, so Yoona and Li Menglong just stood aside and watched everyone filming.
Li Menglong did not go around to help, but stayed with Yoona. Watching the maknae's skillful performance, Yoona really felt like a child who had grown up.
“I heard that the maknae’s acting skills have something to do with you?”
"The rumors are all Xiaoxian's own efforts!" Li Menglong shied away.
"Tch, I didn't ask you to help me. Why did you deny it so quickly?" Yoona said a little lonely.
From the morning when Yoona just came over, Li Menglong could notice the dark circles under her eyes that couldn't be covered by makeup. Although she was physically exhausted, Yoona was always full of energy, making everyone around her feel relaxed, including Lee Menglong.
After thinking about what Yoona said from Lee Soon-gyu and the others, Lee Meng-ryong asked carefully: "Did the filming of the TV series not go well?"
"Not only is it not going well, the TV station is going to cut the number of episodes." Yoona knelt down, picked up a small branch and scratched it on the ground.
"What about the writer? Don't you want to change the script or something?" Li Menglong asked suspiciously, thinking of the beautiful figure by the river that day.
"It's not just about the script, from the director's filming to our performances to the post-production publicity, in short, everyone's enthusiasm is not high. If it weren't for the fact that we could make a fortune overseas, we would probably have lost half of it by now. "Yooner said quietly.
Li Menglong sighed along with him, speechless for a moment.
