In the beginning, I was introduced by my sister to be an agent

Chapter 948: Kim Da-hyun’s request for help.

Koreans love to celebrate Christmas.

The reason... is probably similar to the reason why Koreans like to drink coffee, but the historical background is quite complicated.

During Christmas, Mingyuan specially prepared benefits for the entire crew of "Women in the Drunk City". Due to the shooting schedule, some people could not take a holiday, so the corresponding treatment had to be increased.

How can you let the horse run without letting it eat grass?

It's already the end of December, and the show is scheduled to be released in March next year. Add to that some post-production work, so time is actually a bit tight.

Korean dramas used to be filmed and broadcast at the same time, but since Netflix’s strong invasion, many things have been subtly changed.

There is no way. Netflix has money and channels, so it will naturally force Korean practitioners to change.

TVN also needs to learn from foreign monks.

“It’s a beautiful watch.”

Pei Zhuxuan looked at the watch on Mingyuan's wrist and said sourly.

After Bai Cai arrived in Daegu, he was obsessed with this guy for a while, but starting from mid-to-late November, the overlap of their timelines became less and less.

This is what it’s like for two people who are both busy with work to fall in love.

When we are not busy, we are so affectionate that we would like to stay in bed all day long. When we are busy, it is common for us not to see each other for ten days or half a month.

If you look at it from another angle, artists sound like the best candidates for lovers. They are rich, famous, pretty, and even if they are busy, they won't cling to you every day.

Distance creates beauty. When there is distance, there is beauty.

If a whole family can stay together all the time and don't fight every day, it would be a blessing.

"It's from Sasha-chan." Ever since Minatozaki Sasha gave him this birthday present, Mingyuan has taken the initiative to get used to wearing a watch, although his first reaction when he wants to check the time is still to subconsciously reach for his cell phone.

There is no reason to complain when a woman is jealous: "Humph, it seems... the tie I gave you is not presentable."

Although Bae Joo-hyun is not happy to meet Minatozaki Sana and even deliberately avoids her, comparisons between the two are ongoing all the time.

Aggression is an inherent part of human nature, regardless of gender.

"No, it's just that I'm definitely not suitable for wearing a tie in my current state."

Mingyuan's outfit on the crew has always been simple and comfortable, with a long, universal down jacket, a warm hat and a large mask. However, the expensive watch is out of tune with his outfit.

When it comes to work, there's no need to be too sophisticated.

"You can wear the tie at the press conference. I prepared it for you for that time." Bae Joo-hyun said with a smile.

A tie is a low-key gift that can show the close relationship between two people.

Bai Cai has a shrewd plan. When the press conference for "Women in the Drunk City" is held, or when she attends an event or award ceremony later, she will definitely walk the red carpet holding Mingyuan's arm.

After all, the two of them are not only the writer and the heroine, but also boyfriend and girlfriend, so no one can take away this position.

When the time comes... just let that Shiba Inu worry about it down there.

Mingyuan smacked his lips and said, "Tsk tsk, Zhuxuan, it seems that you are very confident in this TV series."

This woman even took into account future activities.

"Of course I hope this drama will be successful." Pei Zhuxuan tilted her head and said pitifully: "But even if it fails, it is the failure of you as a famous writer, and it has nothing to do with me, a small new actor."

Ever since the two of them broke through the last obstacle, Bai Cai has become more and more capable of acting like a spoiled child.

The most important thing is that she is not the type to act coquettishly in a pretentious way. Her whole demeanor is extremely natural, and some things cannot be faked.

"You are my girlfriend." The man reminded Bai Cai.

"Then I'll accompany you to be scolded."

"It seems that for the sake of your woman, success has become the only option?"

"Well, I want to be a professional actor. SANAxi wants to make money, so you have to work harder."

Bae Joo-hyun has indeed put a lot of effort into this drama.

As a new actor who started out as an idol, Bai Cai put a lot of effort into character creation. When she has nothing to do, she would ask Lee Sun Bin and Han So Hee for advice on acting tips. Even when she is with Ming Yuan, she can spare one-third of her time to talk about the script.

This time allocation is not easy.

Bae Joo-hyun believed that no one could remain calm when this guy lifted up his clothes to reveal his abdominal muscles. Minatozaki Sana must be even more excessive than her.

Shiba Inu: Do you like licking abdominal muscles too?

The acting teacher that Mingyuan hired for Pei Zhuxuan also highly praised the student's efforts. Baicai may not have much talent to praise, but he is definitely not at the level where he cannot make a living in this field.

With Mingyuan here, it won't be a big problem if we provide more resources and hone our skills.

If you think about it carefully, Bae Joo-hyun may be the person who can benefit the most from men's career bonuses. After all, Sana Minatozaki, Tzuyu Chou, and even Mi Cai did not choose to be actors.

Her and Han Suxi's acting styles are quite different. At least one can play the mistress, but the other can't.

Kim Da-hyun: Did someone also ask me to act?

"It's my duty, it's my duty." Mingyuan nodded helplessly.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Since he chose to take off his pants in the first place, some things were unavoidable.

Pei Zhuxuan asked casually: "By the way, how was your conversation at Sakura a few days ago?"

"It's OK. The initial contact went smoothly."

Mingyuan has now begun to prepare for the future.

He went to Sakura to meet the mother of Miyawaki Sakura, who was still a member of izone at the time, and the boss of her company. In order to win over Sakura, the attitudes of these people and business contracts are very important.

No matter how much controversy Lesserafam may cause in the future, Sakura's personal commercial value is worth affirming.

Therefore, compared to the Korean line, Mingyuan's initial target was Miyawaki Sakura. Another reason was that after all, it was a cross-border negotiation, which was definitely more complicated than the Korean members.

What's more, izone is currently in the midst of a huge public controversy over a fake program, and the group has already suspended its activities.

All of this created opportunities for Mingyuan's activities.

"I don't know why, but to me, your forming a new girl group is like a weird uncle extending his claws to a poor little girl." Bae Joo-hyun complained mercilessly.

Although Miyawaki Sakura debuted very early, her child was born in 1998, so there is nothing wrong with being called a little girl by a big sister born in 1991.

The man argued: "I did that for serious matters."

"Ah, think about the new kids who are born in the 2000s now, time flies."

Bae Joo-hyun suddenly sighed.

When the woman was listening to Mingyuan talking about work, she naturally heard a lot about the new girl group, including their age.

In future plans, Miyawaki Sakura, who was born in 1998, may be the oldest one. No wonder Bae Joo-hyun felt emotional, as the youngest member of the fourth-generation girl group is about the same age.

When Kim Ye-lin first debuted, her nickname was "Sister Baby", and she was the person with the most sisterly feeling in KPOP.

Nowadays, she would be considered an eldest sister.

"Joohyun..."

"Ok?"

“In fact, all members of itzy are born in the 2000s.” …

"Oppa, do I have a present too?"

Xu Yunzhen asked in shock.

She didn't expect that her Christmas gift would come from the company's boss, although Mingyuan's image has always been different from those of the presidents of big companies.

"Of course, you will be in Korea during Christmas. As the president, I have to express my gratitude." Mingyuan said with a smile.

Giving out welfare is a means for those in power to win over people’s hearts.

Xu Yunzhen squinted her big eyes and smiled cutely: "Thank you, Oppa~"

"You're welcome. How's your practice going lately?"

Mingyuan has a lot of things to do now, so after sending Xu Yunzhen to JYP to practice with itzy's next batch of trainees, he rarely cares about this child.

Several months have passed in the blink of an eye.

"It's OK." Speaking of training life, Xu Yunzhen's usually cheerful face also showed a bit of distress: "It's just that those people are too strong, especially Lily. I can't keep up with them."

After all, the girl was born to study bel canto, and was positioned as the lead singer when she participated in "Produce 48". However, after being thrown into JYP by Mingyuan, she found out how much she was lacking.

In that A-level practice room, Xu Yunzhen is the oldest, but his strength is not the worst, but it is definitely the last.

Not to mention Lily and Oh Hae-won, even the childish Kim Ji-woo and Jang Kyu-jin have made rapid progress and have demonstrated their outstanding talent and strength at a young age.

Monsters, all monsters.

  When did JYP start to pursue the route of talent?

You know, when Twice first debuted, they were always criticized for their strength.

Mingyuan said seriously: "Yunzhen, remember, my expectation for you is to be the lead singer of the group in the future, so you must study hard. If you are not qualified, your debut may not be a sure thing."

He attaches great importance to this.

In a group, there should be at least two members who can sing. How can you be an idol if you can't even open your mouth?

Of course, if you have a face like Bae Joo-hyun, or have the same traffic as Miyawaki Sakura, shortcomings can be allowed to exist, provided that you have the capital to do so.

"Don't worry, I will try my best."

Xu Yunzhen is also a man with great ambition.

The reason why she gave up the opportunity to go back to the United States to study in college was to be able to stand on the stage she had always dreamed of. Now that she finally has the opportunity, how can she give it up easily?

Isn’t it just singing? That has always been the thing that girls are most confident about.

"It seems that I need to prepare a few more gifts to thank those children." The man said with a smile.

If there were no stimulation from the future nmixx kids, Xu Yunzhen might not be able to keep this string taut. Improvement in singing skills requires long-term practice.

Of course, except for those with natural talents, they are really incomparable. They are just gifts given by God.

Kim Taeyeon and Jung Eun-ji, who were members of girl groups, belong to this category.

Xu Yunzhen pumped his fist to encourage himself, and then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Oppa, didn't you come to see me for another matter today?"

"Yes, come with me to meet someone."

"Today is Christmas, aren't you going to accompany Irene senior?" Heo Yunzhen asked curiously.

Although she was in JYP's practice room, what she heard every day was information about her boss, especially the trainees, who all admired Mingyuan very much.

Of course, there is gossip about "pearls will be found even if they are far away".

"Children, don't pry into adult matters."

Mingyuan raised his hand and pretended to knock the little guy on the head.

Xu Yunzhen subconsciously shrank her neck, stuck out her tongue and got into the car: "Oppa, who are we going to meet?"

"Miyawaki Sakura."

"Sakura-unnie?"

Xu Yunzhen and Miyawaki Sakura had met on a show before, so they were not strangers and should be more comfortable addressing each other.

"Yes, you two may very well become teammates in the future, so there's no harm in meeting each other." The reason why Mingyuan brought Xu Yunzhen with him was to recommend his girl group plan to Xiaoyinghua.

Well, it's also a way to express sincerity.

When they saw Miyawaki Sakura, the girl's face was filled with unconcealable fatigue.

Recently, the news that the production team of "Produce 48" was suspected of fraudulent voting during the audition process has been making headlines. Under pressure, izone has interrupted its comeback plan, and the company and members are discussing what to do next.

There were even rumors of disbanding.

Mingyuan believes that he is definitely not the only one who has come into contact with izone members during this period, but there may be no one who has done more detailed research than himself.

"Hello, Sakura-chan." Mingyuan stretched out his hand and greeted the girl in front of him.

"Oppa, this isn't the first time we've met, and you're still so polite."

The fully armed Xiao Yinghua then took off the mask on her face. If she was discovered meeting Mingyuan in private, she didn't know what the media would say.

Now, the entire izone is in a panic, and no one knows whether the group can continue its activities.

If not, then everyone will have to start considering the way out, and Miyawaki Sakura will naturally be no exception. At least it won't be wrong to make some preparations first, as the group is originally a limited group.

The man also introduced the girl next to him: "This is Xu Yunzhen, you should have known each other before."

"Yes, we met during the filming of the show." Miyawaki Sakura nodded politely to Xu Yunzhen.

The two of them were not strangers, but they were not familiar with each other either. After all, it had been more than a year since the filming of "Produce 48" ended. However, when they looked at each other at this time, they had somewhat different feelings towards each other.

"Sakura-chan, your mother asked me to bring a gift when I went to Sakura this time, saying that you loved to eat it when you were a child."

Mingyuan took out a box from his bag and pushed it over.

Heo Yoon-jin observed this oppa's every move curiously, as if he was learning something.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. Can we talk now?"

"Please tell me."

……

A few more days passed.

It's a rare occasion that Mingyuan takes a day off to rest during his busy work.

He deliberately chose a day when Bae Joo-hyun needed to join the crew and Minatozaki Sana and Chou Tzu-yu had filming schedules, so that he could get a thorough rest. Otherwise, he always didn't know who would have something to do.

Alas, having too many girlfriends is not always a good thing.

All the matters concerning the production crew were handed over to Gu Guangxue. It is time for him to regain his working feeling. He needs to work harder after getting married.

Just when the man was thinking about going to the gym later, he suddenly received a call from Kim Da Hyun.

"Oppa, can you come over here?"
