Endless Rebirth

Although he received the support of the two leaders of the company, Li Shixun did not make the decision alone.The finance of the film and television division is not completely independent, and the investment required for filming still requires the support of the company, so in the end he had to communicate with President Jin and Director Li before making the final decision.

If you want to shoot, you have to shoot well, because it’s expensive!

This was the first reaction of President Kim and Director Lee when they heard that Li Shixun had a script written by writer Kim Eun-sook.Thanks to the Lovers trilogy, writer Kim Eun-sook has almost become a ratings guarantee and is very popular among major radio stations and companies.

This is also thanks to Li Shixun, because the president of his company has a wide network of contacts in this area, and the people he signed are all old actors, mostly supporting actors, third-rate and second-rate characters.Don't underestimate them, as these people's connections often burst out with shocking energy.

This is a good example right now. With writer Kim Eun-sook’s current net worth, how could it be C&W’s turn?I don’t have any acquaintances in the company, but my relationship with Writer Jin is still very good.And without Li Shixun, how could S&M Company get this advantage?

A bargain?Indeed, at least in the minds of President Jin and Director Li, this is a bargain.Think about what the company has produced in the past, let alone the ratings, it’s just a matter of luck that it didn’t make a loss.It's not that I didn't work hard to acquire good scripts, but film and television production doesn't rely solely on scripts. People saw that the company's filming conditions were not good, so they didn't bother to take care of it.

To put it simply, the current script is something that S&M Company can't even ask for, and it would be crazy not to agree.

However, I agreed readily, and there were a series of questions that followed.It's embarrassing for both of you.If you want to make a TV series, and if you want to make it well, just having a script is not enough.Let’s not talk about investment issues, directors, cameramen, makeup, sets, actors, etc.Which one is not a problem?

After thinking about it, the two of them turned their eyes to Li Shixun again. Obviously, this kind of problem would be better solved by the person in charge of the film and television department.Li Shixun was not surprised. He pondered for a while before clarifying his words.

If s&m company doesn't work, isn't there c&w company?Personnel issues?Easy to handle.Recruit people directly from the company.Want to arrange for your idol to be soy sauce?No problem, just discuss with Writer Kim directly and arrange two roles.As for broadcasting, SBS is a ready-made TV station.

Of course, there is no such thing as a free lunch. If you gain something, you have to pay for it.Li Shixun didn't ask for much.If you invest together, you will get half the benefits.He is not a fool. He knew how popular the TV series was and missed the opportunity to make money. Even if the two of them didn't bring it up, he would still find a way to get involved.After all, it is a project that I am responsible for, how could I suffer a loss?

After the words were made clear, President Jin and Director Li chatted in a low voice for a while.A consensus was reached.It can be co-produced by two companies, and the benefits can be divided in half, but it must be in the name of S&M, which means that the production unit must bear the name of the company.

To put it bluntly, President Jin and Director Li never thought about making money, they only wanted fame. An S&M company can produce TV shows and have a good reputation.This name.For President Jin and Director Li, it is more important than making money.

The main reason is that the company does not have the shooting conditions. Cooperating with Li Shixun's company is both helpless and agreeable.After all, with Li Shixun as the link and bearing the investment risk, even if he loses, there won't be much loss or pain.

So, on the last day of September, the three company talkers spent the whole afternoon muttering in the office and finally finalized various cooperation agreements.In the evening of that day, Li Shixun greeted the company, and the TV planning project of "Secret Garden" was officially established.

Because it is still in the early stages of preparation, it is still kept secret. Except for a limited number of people, the outside world has not heard the news at all.This is what President Jin and Director Li mean. After all, this is the first battle, so we need to fight steadily and not be too aggressive.It is not easy for the news to be leaked prematurely, so as not to make the production team feel the pressure of external public opinion, thus affecting the filming.

However, the fortress is easy to be breached from within, and news can easily spread internally.The news that the company's newly established film and television production department had already decided on the project was widely circulated within the company as soon as it got dark.

When Yoona called to inquire about the truth of the matter, Li Shixun was at home, wearing plaid shorts and a short-sleeved T-shirt, preparing dinner alone in the kitchen.Cooking has always been his first hobby. Even when he was in a foreign country, he never gave up. Whenever he had time, he would do it himself.

"Oh, have you heard the news?" Li Shixun said with a smile after turning off the fire.

"Oppa!" Yoona said dissatisfied on the phone: "Why didn't you tell me first? Didn't you know that I am also an actor? You also said that you are our fan, huh, everything is a lie."

"Yoona," Li Shixun didn't pay too much attention to her attitude and said with a smile: "Oppa won't lie to people, but President Jin and Director Li have told me that the project has just been established, so it shouldn't be too public. And , Oppa has just come back from the company, he has been tired for a day, how can he think so much? Who would know that the news has been leaked? Let me know which bastard it is, I..."

"Oppa?" Yoona's coquettish voice interrupted Li Shixun on the phone, "So, the news is true? Is the company really planning to make a TV series? What about me? Is there a role for me?"

"You are really anxious." Li Shixun said with a smile: "Because we have just decided, the roles have not been determined yet. We will not know until we meet with writer Kim Eun-sook."

"Ah! Writer Kim Eun-sook? Is she the screenwriter of TV series such as "Lovers in Paris" and "Lovers in Prague"? Dafa!" Yoona exclaimed on the phone. She is already somewhat famous in the circle, so there is no way she doesn't know about it. Writer Jin Eun-sook has always been paying attention to news in this area.

"Well..." His nasal voice protracted, and Li Shixun smiled nonchalantly. Instead, he was amused by her reaction, "The script was written by Kim Eun-sook herself. If this surprises you, let me tell you, first The male lead will be Hyun Bin..."

"Mo? Really?" She seemed to be really shocked. Yoona asked instinctively, and then sighed unnaturally: "Daebak! Sehun and Oppa, this kind of lineup, this kind of lineup..."

For a company that is rich in idols, this kind of lineup is a bit fanciful.

"So, Yoona," Li Shixun adjusted his tone and said a little seriously: "Are you ready to play with Hyun Bin?"

"I..." Yoona on the other end of the phone was speechless for a moment, and immediately understood that she had no chance.

She knows her own strength, and she debuted at a young age. Although she was highly praised for her role as Jang Se-bi in "You Are My Destiny" and her acting skills were also recognized, she was really reluctant to play opposite Hyun Bin.

Li Shixun's question was naturally not a nice one, and the meaning was easy to understand.

"I know!" There was endless disappointment in his tone, and Yoona's voice was a little low.How could you be willing to do so?Not to mention that it is the company's ambitious production, even if it is written by Kim Eun-sook, it is not to be missed, not to mention Hyun Bin as the male lead.

but……

It’s not that I don’t have a chance, but I have to pass him by because I’m not strong enough!This feeling made the young Yoona feel as if a sap had been slapped on her whole body, making her feel breathless.The pride growing in my heart was shattered into pieces at this moment.

How cruel does it feel to have an opportunity in front of you but miss it because of your own reasons?What kind of sadness is it?She fell into self-blame for a moment, and the fingers holding the phone turned white from the exertion.

"Yoona, don't be discouraged!" Li Shixun originally wanted to decline, because if he wanted to make a good TV series, he couldn't interfere randomly with the characters.This is a principle and a necessity. After all, it is an ambitious production.But at this moment, he heard Yoona's disappointment, and suddenly he felt a little regretful.

Although I don’t remember Yoona participating in the role, it shouldn’t be a problem for the screenwriter to arrange a role, right?This idea came to his mind, so he said: "Oppa is the director of the company. When it comes to TV production, I have to decide on everything, so it's not that there is no chance, but I can't be the first heroine opposite Hyun Bin." It’s just a show!”

"Really? Thank you Oppa, it doesn't matter if you are not the number one heroine. As long as I can participate in the show, I will be satisfied." Yoona said with excitement as if she had been given a shot of blood after hearing Li Shixun's words.

I thought I would miss it, but I didn't expect it to take a turn.I also understand that if I don’t have the strength to be the number one heroine, I won’t be able to win.Therefore, I don’t have much ambition. I just want to participate, hone my acting skills, and communicate more with my seniors.

"It's Oppa, so you're welcome." Hearing her voice full of excitement, Li Shixun somehow felt happy and said with a smile, "But Oppa helped you so much this time, how should you return it? ah?"

"Oppa is the minister, how can I, a little girl, be attractive to you?" Yoona said with a smile on the phone: "But if things can work out, I really have to thank Oppa. Otherwise, I won't be able to do anything like this." At that time, the salary for the TV series was paid out, how about I treat the Oppa to dinner?"

"Okay, I must empty your little pockets." Li Shixun agreed with a smile, and finally asked her to keep it secret, "Don't tell anyone else about this. After all, you haven't met anyone else yet. Many things have not been finalized yet, so please don’t spread the word and cause trouble for me.”

"I understand, thank you Oppa!" After Yoona agreed obediently, the two hung up the phone.There is no need for Li Shixun to point it out, how could Yoona, a clever guy like Yoona, go out and talk nonsense about such a thing, with such a big mouth, she wants to announce it to the whole world, and then incur the jealousy of others?She's not that superficial.

Putting down the phone, Li Shixun prepared to continue serving dinner.There was no special preparation for dinner, just ingredients bought when he got off work, but he treated it with the heart of preparing a big meal. Going all out was not only an attitude, but also a habit.

But before he entered the kitchen, the phone rang again. He reluctantly walked back, picked it up and saw that it belonged to Kwon Youli.After slapping his forehead, he looked up and sighed, what a brain! (To be continued.)
