Chapter 40

Li Xiuman looked kindly, as if looking at his junior.

"Nai, thank you Teacher Li Xiuman for your trust. I do have this intention. It just so happens that I have an unfinished song before. I will make it into a demo for you to listen to in the past few days."

Chi Jingyuan immediately thanked him, Li Xiuman's words really hit his fancy, so he would not have to take the initiative to bring it up.

"Very good, I'm looking forward to it, you can just bring it to me after the demo is done."

Li Xiuman nodded happily, and added after a pause: "Jingyuan, the songs and styles of other groups' comebacks are all decided by the company, and the members have very little choice. That is to say, you are really outstanding. In terms of EXO's style, I think you have the ability to give your opinion."

"Inside, it's all cultivated by the company. I am very grateful to Teacher Li Xiuman for treating me with great importance." Chi Jingyuan stood up and saluted, expressing that he understood.

"En." Li Xiuman patted Chi Jingyuan's shoulder to show his appreciation.

The two chatted for a while, and at the end of it, Li Xiuman added one last sentence:
"Park Jae-hyun joined the company yesterday. I have already arranged for him to be your assistant in EXO's management team. It's better for Lee Seung-hwan to follow the team. It's not suitable for him to be the head of the management team and follow you every day."

"The company is open to the resources you can obtain through your own connections or abilities. Jing Yuan, you have a bright future for development, and I don't want you to be limited to being an idol."

Li Xiuman, who was wearing a suit, looked very imposing, but at this time he was not aggressive, and his speech was rather earnest.

"Guai, I understand, I will work hard." Chi Jingyuan understood what the other party meant.

"Ha ha……"

When Chi Jingyuan left the office, Li Xiuman patted him on the back hard, his encouragement and appreciation were beyond words.

After Chi Jingyuan left, the smile on Li Xiuman's face gradually faded away, leaving only two sparkling eyes. He sat back on the boss chair, picked up the internal phone, and the kiss he had just had when facing Chi Jingyuan He has long since disappeared, and his tone is very severe:

"Call me SJ's manager and Kang In."

……

After Chi Jingyuan went back, the practice room was empty, and all the members left.

Just announced the decision to refrigerate, no matter how hard-working the members are, they definitely don't have the intention to practice.

The empty practice room was silent, the wooden floor covered with sweat was as smooth as a mirror, and the blue sky and white clouds on the walls remained unchanged.

Obviously it is exactly the same as before, but the practice room looks awkward at this time.

Naturally, Chi Jingyuan didn't intend to practice, he didn't want to dance any more in the past few days.

But on the 25th there will be a music bank stage, even if the members are not in the mood, they still need to come back and continue practicing.

Chi Jingyuan didn't want to stay in this practice room for an extra second today, so he called Park Jae-hyun and made an appointment in a coffee shop next to the company.

This shop called GEEK Coffee is near the SM company building, less than 500 meters away in a straight line. It is not very high-end, but the European-style decoration style is very attractive to petty bourgeoisie white-collar workers who work around.

The melodious piano sound echoed in the coffee shop, mixed with the warm sunshine, and the soft, long breath filled the whole room.

Chi Jingyuan sat in the corner, and after waiting for less than 5 minutes, Park Jae-hyun came in, glanced around, and quickly came here, said hello, and then pulled out the chair and sat down.

He was dressed in standard office clothes, with a shirt, tie, trousers and leather shoes. He didn't wear a suit because of the high temperature. He was holding a folder in his hand, which looked very formal.

Park Jae-hyun is 30 years old this year. He looks ordinary but has sharp eyes. He worked as an assistant next to his second brother Ji Jingxu for several years, and now he has joined the management department of SM Publicity, specializing in being Ji Jingyuan's assistant. In terms of position It's also a broker.

It's just that compared to an artist's agent, he is dressed more like a stock marketer or insurance seller.

"Brother Zai Xian, why is he still in this body? Are you supposed to be in the office?"

Chi Jingyuan glanced up and down, his tone helpless.

"Ha, I'm still not used to it,"

Park Jae-hyun laughed, and dusted his shirt with his hands.

In addition to being an assistant, his main job was driving, so he was naturally dressed in a suit with Chi Jingxu.However, brokers seldom dress like this. Most of them wear more casual clothes, mainly in a comfortable and casual style.

He and Chi Jingyuan are already very familiar, and they get along more casually.

After chatting casually about what happened when he joined SM, the two got down to business.

Park Jae-hyun put the document bag on the table, took out two ordered booklets from it, handed one to Chi Jingyuan, took one and opened it himself, and introduced at the same time:

"Because you intend to develop into the film and television industry, so I have collected some information about the TV dramas that are about to start shooting recently, some of which are the crews that are preparing for the recruitment of actors."

"Your uncle used to work at the top of SBS and managed the film and television department, so he has a wide range of contacts in the film and television industry. Many of these materials were given to me by his assistant."

"You can see if you are interested first."

Chi Jingyuan nodded, took the brochure and flipped through it, and asked while reading, "If I'm interested, can I act?"

"It's very easy to play a role, because there are enough contacts and affection."

"However, it's hard to say the importance of the roles and the number of scenes. Some dramas have already confirmed the main actors, so it's not easy to change them. Others are productions that TV stations pay more attention to. There are certain requirements for the roles and popularity of the protagonists. .”

With that said, Park Jae-hyun took a careful look at Chi Jingyuan and hesitated: "After all, Jing Yuan, you haven't debuted as an official actor, you haven't proven your acting skills, and you haven't gained a reputation yet."

Seeing that Chi Jingyuan didn't make a sound, he was a little worried that he would be dissatisfied, so Park Jae-hyun quickly added:
"Of course, with our strength, if we want to forcibly perform, there is a way, but we need..."

"Forget it..." Chi Jingyuan casually refused.

He knew that with his family and his uncle's connections, he could force himself to become the leading actor in some well-produced TV dramas, but he needed to pay a certain amount in exchange.

But now he has just debuted, he has no filming experience, and his acting skills have not been tempered, so there is no need to do this.

"Do you have any recommendations?" Flipping through the materials of film and television dramas in his hand, Chi Jingyuan took a look at Park Jae-hyun.

"Yes, it's all marked." Park Jae-hyun nodded, holding his own brochure, pointing to introduce to Chi Jingyuan: "This "Ghost" is one of the highlights of SBS this year, and the leading actor is So Ji-sub. But the main role is early The selection has been completed and filming has already started, and it will be released on 5.30. However, you can arrange a supporting role with few roles as your debut role."

"There is also this "Big", which is KBS's monthly drama, the Hong sisters' new work this year, starring Gong Yoo, Lee Min Jung and Bae Suzy, but filming has already started."

"Forget these two, it's boring to squeeze in."

Chi Jingyuan waved his hand, and at the same time looked at the other party in surprise: "Brother Zai Xian, you still know the Hong sisters, it seems that you have done a lot of homework."

"Hahaha, of course, to be your assistant must be prepared."

Park Jae-hyun smiled reservedly.

Since he received this job, he has been studying the affairs of the peninsula film and television industry, including directors and some well-known screenwriters, and today he can be regarded as practice makes perfect.

He went on to introduce several other TV series:
"The main character has already been selected, and the TV series that has started filming is really not suitable for inclusion. This "Golden Time" is a monthly drama that MBC is expected to broadcast in July. It is a popular doctor theme recently. The protagonist has been confirmed to be Li Shanjun. Supporting roles are still being selected."

"There is also this "Father", I recommend this one."

"This is a monthly drama that will be promoted by SBS in the second half of the year, and the starring role has also been confirmed. It is Lee Min Ho and Kim Hee Sun. This lineup is considered very good. Because it is an SBS TV series, we can get some preferential treatment. It should be very good. supporting role."

"Next..."To the Beautiful You", this is a drama co-produced by your SM company and SBS. It is a self-produced drama. It is adapted from a manga, and the leading actors are Choi Minho and Cui Xueli, and there are many of you. The company's artist cameo."

"If you are willing, we can try to be the leading actor in this drama, it's not a big problem."
