Chapter 164 Thank You Well
"I'm Zheng Xiujing, thank you for your help, do you have time recently? I would like to treat you to dinner."

Seeing this news, Chi Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, unable to figure out what was going on.

Of course Oh Soo-jung knows him, the seniors from FX, they released their album a week before EXO and announced their comeback, and they have met several times backstage before.

It's just that after meeting so many times, I didn't actually say a few words, and I didn't even exchange contact information.

Every time she meets or is in the same frame, she will hide among the members, don't speak much, just keep applauding and laughing non-stop.

Speaking of which, she is quite similar to Chi Jingyuan.

It's just that Chi Jingyuan didn't understand what this text message meant.

Just when he was in a daze, another call came from his cell phone. Chi Kyung-won saw that the caller ID was from Kim Eun-sook. He said to the members, "I'll answer the call," and then stood up and walked out. In the box, I found a place where no one was around and connected the phone.

"Ensununa, you are not blocked."

"Nei, Jing Yuan."

Jin Enshu's tone sounded quite enthusiastic, with a very close feeling.

In the past few days, she has often contacted Chi Jingyuan because of the revision of the script, and Chi Jingyuan also asked his second brother about these things during this period, and then passed it on to Jin Eunshu, which benefited the other party a lot. The inspiration came Not a lot.

The two chatted casually at first, and now Kim Eun-sook seems to have completely transferred her previous appreciation of Lee Min Ho to Chi Jingyuan. Apart from thinking that Chi Jingyuan is the most suitable actor to play Jin Tan, she also has a faint feeling. A feeling of becoming half a fan.

After chatting about the gossip, we entered the topic.

"Jing Yuan, the actor who plays Li Baona has been confirmed, and it is your SM idol, Jung Soo Jung."

Jin Enshu suddenly mentioned Zheng Xiujing, and Chi Jingyuan immediately felt that his doubts just now were about to be solved. He followed the other party's words and said:

"So it's Senior Zheng Xiujing."

"Inside, because this role does not have high requirements for acting skills, it only needs to be natural. The main thing is that the actors need to have an excellent appearance and some popularity. Idols who are actors are also competing for this role, and their agency has played very hard in the back."

Jin Eun-sook briefly introduced the situation, with some self-respect in her tone.

Her reputation has already been established in the TV drama industry. All the works written by several screenwriters have been a big success for several years. This year's new work "The Inheritor" has naturally attracted a lot of attention. The competition for each main role is fierce. The actors and actresses The artist can get the role, but the economic company does not know how much energy and contacts have been mobilized behind it.

"After all, it is Ensununa's new work. It can only be said that these brokerage companies are really discerning."

Chi Jingyuan flattered him.

"Haha, others often say this, but I'm happiest when it comes from Jing Yuanyou's mouth, so I won't say it..."

"At the end of the competition, there are still three candidates left. After I communicated with the main creative staff of the film crew and the TV station, I proposed to choose Zheng Xiujing to play. You are still in the same company, so it is more convenient to communicate, and it will be approved after discussion.”

Kim Eun-sook made the point: "By the way, what I told SM is that she was chosen because of you."

Her focus was on the last sentence, which specifically mentioned the favor she made.

"Jinjia? I said why I received a thank you message from the company and senior Xiujing. It turned out to be Enshun Nuna's help. It's really...Kangsang Mita."

Chi Jingyuan smacked his lips, he had already figured out what happened, he didn't know what to say for a while, but he quickly expressed his thanks, the other party was giving him face after all.

In fact, to be honest, he and Oh Soo-jung are not familiar at all. If Kim Eun-sook really asked his opinion, according to Chi Kyung-won's personality and preferences, he would probably recommend Cui Xueli, and even Jung Eun-ji. body.

"It's because of you, Jing Yuan, who really helped me a lot, and it's true that the preparation time for the production crew is already a little tight, otherwise the role will have to be discussed for a few more days before it can be confirmed, and the other candidates are also not sure." It's not bad, and it's not necessarily that she will choose Zheng Xiujing. This kind of favor is not small, your company and her should thank you well..."

After talking about this matter, Kim Eun-sook and Chi Jingyuan talked about the preparations of the crew,

She has intensively revised the script in the past few days. At present, some plots have changed a lot from the original version. The character image of the protagonist Jin Tan has been greatly improved, and her personality charm is much higher than that of the original version.

It also includes the way of getting along with some chaebols in the play, daily life and lines, all of which are much closer to reality with the help of Chi Jingyuan, and the sense of class between people of different backgrounds is much stronger than before.

Kim Eun-sook can confidently say that the new version of the script is definitely better than the original version.

The script is currently being finalized and will be finalized soon, and the crew has already begun preparations. The early stage personnel have already gone to LA in the United States to book the shooting location and hotel.

According to Kim Eun-sook, the filming will start in September, but now the crew should be formed in advance, and a script seminar will be held in late August, and then the entire crew will take a chartered flight to the United States to officially start filming.

All the first few episodes of "The Heirs" were filmed in LA across the sea.

After communicating about the preparations, Chi Jingyuan and Jin Enshu hung up the phone after saying goodbye, and then found out the message that Zheng Xiujing sent just now.

He looked at the text on the message, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and seemed to be lost in thought.

After two or three minutes, he tapped his phone and replied:

"Guess, you're welcome senior. FX and XO are very busy these days, so I'll have time in the future."

After typing, Chi Jingyuan looked at the "message has been sent" prompt, smiled slightly on his face, shook his head, turned and returned to the box.

What was annoying was that the food had already been served, but this group of people started eating without any intention of waiting for him.

…………

"You're welcome, senior..."

In the nanny's car, Zheng Xiujing looked at the text of the other party's reply on the screen, she looked a little empty, but her hands holding the phone were a little bit hard.

Recently, she has really worked hard for the role of Li Baona.

In order to fight for it, she has been studying the incomplete script fragments she has obtained every day, studying and reciting lines, trying to figure out the emotions of the characters, and practicing by herself in front of the mirror.

In addition to her own efforts, managers including SM Company and FX have also been constantly running around, contacting their respective contacts and relationships, trying to gain an advantage in the role competition.

This is the status quo of the peninsula film and television industry. Although there are a large number of TV dramas produced every year, they have the prospect of a big hit. All roles require brokerage companies to compete in many ways to get them.

Unless you are the kind of top actor who is extremely popular and popular, the script will naturally be sent to you.

It's a pity that Oh Soo-jung is not, she is an actor turned from idol, she is in the lower status in the entire caste class, every opportunity is very precious to her, let alone Kim Eun-sook's script.

After so many days of hard work, Oh Soo-jin just went to the TV station to audition several times, but unfortunately there was nothing to follow.

According to her agent, the agency companies behind several of her competitors have been active in the past few days, and the progress is not small. SM may be struggling in this regard.

Originally, Oh Soo-jin didn't even have any hope, but every day she would open the script unwillingly, staring at the extremely proficient lines she memorized for a while.

Unexpectedly, early this morning, the agent called her out in ecstasy, telling her that she had been confirmed to star and that the company had received the news of the official invitation.

Before she could be happy, the manager immediately explained the reason why she stood out and was selected...

Looking at the plain text reply on the phone, Oh Soo-jin couldn't help pursing her lips. The impressive figure she saw in the backstage and on the stage of playing songs before appeared in her mind, and she silently said his name again:
Chi Jingyuan...
