The Rise of Korean Entertainment
Chapter 2609 No Pressure
"This is just a flash of inspiration. It was definitely not intentional. Remember to explain it to me later!" Li Menglong warned Xu Xian.
Is this kind of last resort method really useful? Now that I know I'm afraid, why did I go there earlier?
However, it was difficult for Xu Xian to judge how true his words were at this moment. After all, when he came here, he should have been prepared to be liquidated afterwards.
It’s not just Jessica alone, most of the girls will join in.
Li Menglong's "home visit" was really too scary. Everyone's current war is all about millet and rifle. In the end, he directly made an atomic bomb. How can everyone have fun in this?
From now on, if he doesn't get his way and he directly resorts to this move, who among the girls can resist it?
The results are all there. Do you really think that their parents were not invited when they were in school? They know the routine very well.
After parents hear Li Menglong's complaint, they will definitely place the responsibility directly on them indiscriminately.
Anyway, after scolding his daughter first, he might even have to comfort Li Menglong. Thinking about that scene is scary.
So in order to let Li Menglong know the seriousness of the matter, the girls would definitely hit him hard, causing him pain to his bones. They must never do this again in the future.
Although Xu Xian won't do anything, she still supports the girls in her heart. This is not for herself.
You must know that Li Menglong has a very good relationship with her parents. If Li Menglong simply complained, the result would be different from the other girls, right?
Xu Xian didn't dare to guarantee it confidently. She was even looking forward to this scene happening to see if her parents would believe her.
The reason why she didn't side with Li Menglong was entirely because his advantage in this matter was so great that the girls couldn't resist.
There is a clear distinction between strength and weakness from the root. She naturally has to stand on the side of the weak and fight against the bad guy Li Menglong!
So now Li Menglong is asking her to testify. It's already enough if Xu Xian doesn't stumble him. He can't ask for more.
Seemingly getting the answer from Xu Xian's silence, Li Menglong started to play the emotional card: "I never lie to you. Apart from eating here, I didn't even say a bad word about Jessica. If you don't believe me, you can ask ah!"
"You are all here, does it matter what you say?" Xu Xian glanced at Li Menglong with a rare glance. Why did he still treat her like a child? Does she look stupid?
The two of them could no longer communicate, and Li Menglong accepted that this was the inevitable follow-up to his previous actions, and he had to accept it calmly.
Anyway, he had thought about it. As long as Jung Soo-yeon still had a bad temper with him, then don't blame him, Li Menglong, for being ruthless, and everyone would live and die here.
However, before the war, being able to chat calmly with Xu Xian was considered as a way to adjust his state of mind, and he himself enjoyed it quite a bit.
But Xu Xian has many questions here: "Oppa, are you under a lot of pressure recently?"
Originally, Li Menglong wanted to find a new topic, but Xu Xian also thought of joining them. Although the topic was a bit deliberate, he couldn't let Xu Xian down.
"Really? Why don't I feel anything? How do you see that I'm stressed?"
"You've been quarreling with Ernies lately. Isn't this a sign of stress?" Xu Xian asked seriously. She was not joking.
It's just that Xu Xian's seriousness made Li Menglong laugh. The girls didn't start all these things first, and he could only respond passively at best.
You can't let him not fight back when he's bullied, that's not his character.
However, his concern for Xu Xian was quite useful: "Then where does all this pressure come from?"
Seeing Li Menglong chatting along her topic, Xu Xian immediately cheered up. She was now a psychiatrist and wanted to ease Li Menglong's emotions.
"According to my personal observation, is there pressure on the new movie?" Xu Xian continued to observe Li Menglong's expression while speaking.
What Xu Xian said was not without purpose, she was well-founded.
What should I say about this movie? It has received a lot of attention since the project was established. This is certainly a good thing. After all, exposure will bring traffic, but it is definitely a pressure on the director himself.
Because this means that everyone will have very high requirements for the quality of the movie, and it may not be able to perform normally. It must be higher than a certain level to satisfy the audience.
This is not that difficult for Li Menglong. After all, he is also a director who has been tested by the market. His strength is there, so just work hard.
But making a movie is like cooking. You have to select various ingredients, incorporate your own techniques, and process them step by step.
Although the final product has a great relationship with the chef and the director himself, the ingredients are also a very important part of it.
This is what Xu Xian is least confident about. As the absolute main ingredient of this dish, the protagonists of the movie were determined to be their teenage years from the beginning.
Xu Xian was quite happy at first, and even regarded it as a gift from Li Menglong to them.
In Seohyun's opinion, a group of them can produce a work, which in itself is a scene that only appears in movies.
Xu Xian is also relatively optimistic about this project. As the protagonists, they are considered their own people, and the salary is easy to negotiate.
It may be an exaggeration to say that you don't need any money, but you can give as little as you want, or you can exchange it for final dividends. In short, it will greatly reduce the pressure on the film's cost.
And relying on their own fame, I believe there will be many fans to watch.
The cost is not high, and there is almost a guaranteed audience. There is no possibility of losing money on this project. How can I not be optimistic about it?
But as the progress progressed, she herself felt pressure, because expectations from all parties, including themselves, were getting higher and higher.
Xu Xian still doesn't understand why this is happening. There are not many people in their group who have done serious filming.
The final film is obviously a fan-oriented film, with the lowest requirements. As long as they are beautifully shot, fans will pay for it.
They really didn't want to create any masterpieces that would be handed down for generations. Is it too late to clarify now?
But after all, no one said this kind of thing, because the girls' own expectations are also getting higher, which is the most troublesome.
The pressure was already great, but someone pushed him from behind, and that person was Xu Xian himself.
Originally, her TV series was regarded as a promotional video for the movie, at least that's what Li Menglong said when he helped her relieve stress.
Although Xu Xian doesn't think so, the pressure is indeed much less, because after understanding it this way, there is no revenue pressure.
But in disguise, the pressure was transferred to Li Menglong, because in this way, her filming costs became the early promotion expenses of Li Menglong's movie.
It's not like she hasn't thought about this, so she worked so hard on filming the TV series, not only to prove herself, but also to share some of the burden for Li Menglong.
As a result, Seohyun was successful, and the TV series was no longer just a matter of repaying the money.
If you put the TV series and the movie together, then Xu Xian has already made back the early investment in the movie for Li Menglong, and he should be the one without financial pressure now.
But money has never been a problem for him. Li Enxi has a lot of say in this. Her investment in Li Menglong's works has no upper limit, which is very enviable.
So instead of sharing Li Menglong's pressure, Xu Xian only added fuel to the fire.
Even the apprentice's film is so wonderful. If Li Menglong, a famous director as a master, doesn't produce a masterpiece, will he be worthy of Xu Xian's admiration for him?
Especially in the early stage of publicity, TV series and movies were bundled together, which made it easier for everyone to compare.
This kind of "moral" pressure is what Xu Xian is most worried about, because he can't even find someone to resist.
Originally, there were some problems with the foundation of the movie, and now it has so many people's expectations. If it were Seohyun who resisted, she felt that she would be crushed.
However, similar emotions are rarely seen in Li Menglong, but it does not mean that the pressure does not exist. She wants to share some of it for Li Menglong.
After listening to Xu Xian's deep inner analysis, Li Menglong was very hard-working. If he laughed at this time, Xu Xian would probably kill him!
But I really can’t help it anymore. Xu Xian is a young kid, but he has a lot of brain power. Did he learn it from Yoona?
Although Li Menglong wanted to make a good movie, it was more of a requirement for himself. Could it be that he had decided to make a bad movie before filming even started?
As for the purpose of overpowering Xu Xian and proving that he is qualified to teach the other party, this does exist objectively, but it is really rare.
He is not a person who cares about face. It is a normal thing for someone to be better than his predecessor. Why is he unhappy when he sees Xu Xian being more successful than him?
The expectations that Xu Xian talked about the most came from the outside. This was simply because she thought too much. Li Menglong would not take the initiative to bear so many on his own.
Once the movie is made, the audience will come and buy tickets if they think it’s good. If they think it’s ugly, they’ll just criticize it and blacklist his movie forever. That’s enough.
The relationship between audience and director really doesn’t have to be that complicated.
As for why Li Menglong is so open-minded, of course it is because he has no pressure from management.
Even if he really lost money, the most Li Enxi could do was block him in a corner and scold him. What else could he do?
He can definitely be the manager of girls in the future. Directors with part-time jobs are so tough!
But don't say these words to Xu Xian, it will easily turn this little girl into a bad person.
He is now stuck in the quagmire, and he still expects Xu Xian to come and give him a hand. Now he wants to please her: "Thank you, I am really touched, can you give me a hug from a goddess?"
Xu Xian naturally won't be stingy with this hug, but why does it always feel so awkward? Li Menglong's acting is very careless.
Just when there was a possibility that Li Menglong would betray him at any time, Jessica responded with kindness and came to help, even though it was not her original intention.
"How come you two have come so far? Li Menglong, what are you doing? Let us go quickly!"
Jessica pushed Li Menglong away as she spoke. Xu Xian was their baby. Why should Li Menglong hold her? Does he have the qualifications?
Besides, she was extremely displeased with Li Menglong. If she wasn't afraid that Li Menglong would talk nonsense, her current actions would not be so simple.
"Hey, with this little look in his eyes, he wants to swallow me up, or else I'll give you a few blows to vent my anger?" Li Menglong stretched out his face in an extremely provocative manner.
His current behavior is exactly like the villain in the movie, openly molesting women from good families in broad daylight.
Li Menglong is now leaning towards Jessica's hand, and he is not idle: "What kind of hand cream are you using? It smells so good!"
This kind of behavior is simply challenging Jessica's bottom line. If she doesn't give this slap, she will be sorry for Li Menglong's current performance.
Jessica didn't hold back. If this slap really hit someone, they would probably end up in the hospital.
But since Li Menglong dared to do this, it naturally meant that he was on guard at the moment, and he was not really mean, running over to ask for a beating.
Out of the corner of his eye, he had already seen Mother Zheng at the door. This was all a strategy, and Zheng Xiuyan was obviously on top of it.
From Xu Xian's perspective, Li Menglong was provocative first, but the key was that he dodged the slap, even though the action looked a bit embarrassing.
Those subsequent actions seemed very unnecessary. Could it be that he wanted to win his sympathy? Xu Xian's heart was not that soft yet.
But she quickly understood the other party's intention, because this action was not meant for her to see. Mother Zheng had already ran over in the distance.
Judging from the aggressive look, he must have really misunderstood. Maybe he came here just to avenge Li Menglong.
If this really allowed the other party to hit Jessica, then Li Menglong really wouldn't have to hang out in the dormitory.
So now it was his turn to perform again. He stopped Mother Zheng in the past and kept persuading her.
Xu Xian found it very miraculous, because Li Menglong really comforted the other party, and the two walked out of the house harmoniously holding hands.
This picture is really easy for people to misunderstand. Xu Xian turned his head and looked at Jessica. Couldn't this Ernie be picked up? Li Menglong is the eldest son of this family?
"If I don't slap Li Menglong on the face today, then he might as well stay here, and I'll just clean up and leave the house!" Jessica said fiercely, wishing she could bite her teeth into pieces.
What can Xu Xian do? This is a matter for a "family of three". It's not easy for an outsider like her to get involved.
If possible, she wanted to turn around and leave now, but her sense of responsibility made her follow Jessica's footsteps.
Of course, she was indeed a little curious in her heart, wanting to see what would happen to Li Menglong in the end!
