The Rise of Korean Entertainment

"Movie? Little girl, that movie is still early. Where do I have free time recently!" After Li Menglong finished speaking, he explained to Xiuying: "That character is just a soy sauce guy. He only appeared for two minutes in total!"

"Ah! That's it. I'll forget it then. I've been very busy recently!" Xiuying gave her a final hammer blow and then stepped back. For a while, Yuli and the others were no longer interested.

Using their status as girls to make a cameo in a low-budget movie is called a platform. They don't need to beg Li Menglong, but Li Menglong should come and find them.

But despite this, Xu Xian still refused to give up. After being forced by this girl, Li Menglong agreed. In terms of popularity, Xu Xian had nothing to say. After a nation's first love, I don't know how many people like her.

As for the character itself, which is a supporting role and a cold-blooded lawyer, Seohyun is actually quite scary when he has a straight face, so he just says his lines with a cold face.

If the movie is not very successful, it will not affect Xu Xian. After all, she is here to make a cameo, so after comprehensive consideration, Li Menglong agreed half-heartedly.

The matter in Seoul has come to an end for the time being, but Li Menglong knows that he may have to travel between two places in the future. It's not the matter on the company's side, but he has to talk about s*m.

But forget it now, there are many bottom-line issues that still need to be communicated with the girls. These things still have to be made clear, otherwise in the end who will have fewer resources, don't complain in your heart.

Li Menglong's attitude towards this matter is to tell the girls everything. He can be said to be a machine, responsible for communication between the two parties, and the final decision must be made by the girls themselves.

The girls rested for the night and rushed to Japan early the next morning. They continued their busy schedule, but of course they felt a little more uniquely anxious.

But as soon as the plane landed, Li Menglong's phone rang: "Three things! Today is the first day of official competition for your LoL team. Why don't you go and cheer!"

"Lee Soonkyu and I just arrived in Japan, but we left a support video. Then you can talk to the organizer and see if it can be released. They should be willing. What a good stunt!" Li Menglong motioned to Xu Xian to help him with it. Pull up the backpack straps.

"Second, what are you going to do with that notebook from Infinite Trading Company? Kim Tae-ho has even found your home! You said you do the same. It would be great to keep such a good notebook for yourself!" Li Enxi complained. Recently, she saw a piece of paper You have to look carefully to see if it's a script.

"Okay, there will always be a script when people are here! You tell Kim Tae-ho to let them practice their acting skills and find a teacher, otherwise don't waste my notebook!" Li Menglong took the candy from Kim Taeyeon: "Is there anything else? If nothing happens, I'll be busy here!"

"I didn't tell you about three things. I have already found a group of actors for that script, and I have scheduled an interview with the company at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning!"

"Hey! Say it again? What script? Li Eunxi..."

The abbreviation of Li Eunxi's behavior is to get on the bus first and then pay the ticket. Generally, as a father-in-law, you will see it more. And even if he can handle such a big matter as his father-in-law marrying his daughter, Li Menglong will naturally be killed in seconds.

Although he couldn't shirk it, and he wasn't unhappy. After all, he was interested in the script itself, but such a sudden arrangement made Li Menglong, who was used to planning, really panic.

"What a big deal, why don't we just go back for the interview!" Li Shunkyu couldn't help but said looking at the frowning Li Menglong.

"It's as easy as you say! What if the cast is assembled after the audition?"

"Then let's start shooting!"

"What about your affairs?"

"Wait, we don't have a contract with the company for several months, why are you in a hurry!"

Lee Soon Kyu's words opened another path for Lee Mong Ryong. What Lee Mong Ryong had been thinking about was to postpone the movie and resolve the matter here first.

In fact, Lee Soon Kyu's method is quite good. They can just drag it on. Although this will put a little more pressure on the girls, it is within the tolerance range.

Even Jessica came forward to persuade them. After all, it was not good to delay Li Menglong's development because of them. And speaking of utilitarianism, the more movies Li Menglong made, the better. Maybe they would have to ask Director Li Menglong to take care of them in the future.

Even if the matter was settled like this, Li Menglong booked a flight in the early morning at the latest, which was the flight on which the girls had shadows.

But when everyone got together in the evening, they were not seeing Li Menglong off, but paying attention to Li Menglong. Li Menglong finally had the day to seek help from them, even though they didn't know much.

Although Li Menglong has made a movie with Li Zhouyong and directed the TV series "Reply", he seems to be missing more than one or two links. What is in front of him now is that Li Menglong has never interviewed an actor.

"How simple, you just sit there with a straight face, then throw him a script and let him act it, if it works, forget it!" said Yoona, who has the most interview experience.

"What if he just doesn't perform well for a while? Or is he more suitable for another role?"

"How do I know this? Every time I get dismissed, the director won't explain it to me!" Yoona thought about the scene in confusion: "Just say: Okay, you go back and wait for notification!"

"So rash? It's a bit unsettling!" Thinking that the power of life and death of others is in his own hands, Li Menglong was also a little uneasy: "How about Xiaoxian and I go back for the interview? After all, you are also the heroine of this drama. !”

Even Li Menglong was a little timid. How could Xu Xian agree? The actors Li Menglong found should all be seniors with at least ten years of experience. Wasn't she uncomfortable sitting there?

"Alas, even Xiaoxian won't help me. It seems that the world has really become indifferent!" Li Menglong shook his head and said sadly.

The girls smiled and left. This was not something they could help with. They could still help in future promotions.

"Then I'm leaving. If you have something to do here, just ask Taohuayan, that's Hu Jun. He's still reliable. Call him at any time!" Li Menglong stood at the door with an unopened backpack on his back.

"Well, you should be careful yourself and make the movie look good, and then we will also benefit from it!"

"Did you think I would go back for the interview tomorrow and start the phone the day after tomorrow?" Li Menglong replied, then put on his sweater and got into the elevator.

When Kim Taeyeon went to the bathroom, there was no one in the living room. In the past, everyone would still sit here and chat. Of course, it could be said that she was quarreling with Li Menglong.

Sighing silently, Kim Taeyeon told herself to work hard and be strong. After all, Girls' Generation belongs to the nine of them. Li Menglong can help, but you can't rely entirely on him. There are many things that you still need to work hard on!

"Kim Taeyeon! You can do it! Fight!" Kim Taeyeon waved her fist to encourage herself.

"You think you're filming a TV series? Come here quickly, I can't fight here!" Li Shunkyu called her in the room.

So Kim Taeyeon decided to think carefully about the arrangements for this period of time after playing the game, but it seemed that she was about to go to bed after playing the game.

On the plane, Li Menglong took out the completed script and gently slid one hand on the edge of the script. Did he have the ability to postpone the filming of this script? There is no doubt about this!

Li Menglong also knew that it was not suitable for him to leave the girls recently, but Li Menglong still came back, not for anything else, but the script in front of him really touched his heart. He would sometimes think about this script in his dreams these days. plot.

Li Menglong didn't know what kind of person he was before he lost his memory, but after his loss, he could clearly say that he had never been so eager to do something, not even to be with Li Soonkyu. It was a matter of course! Not to mention "Please Reply", only the concerts are barely what he wants to do.

And the script that makes Li Menglong so obsessed with it naturally has its charm. Li Menglong still won't find big actors, and he still isn't optimistic about the box office of this drama.

But he wanted to make it, even if it was to fulfill his own dream. This movie is the style that Li Menglong is good at, or his consistent style, with an extremely small scene and a handful of characters.

There are so many characters in this movie who have faces, names, dialogues, and characteristics that need to be shown. Five criminals from different walks of life with different characteristics, a fool protagonist, two heroines, one big and one small, plus a Warden, gone!

As for the location, half of the scenes are in a prison room of a few square meters. If it is expanded a bit, the whole scene can be shot by building or renting a corner of the prison.

If you only read these introductions, this is a typical small production, but when Li Menglong reads the script, you can feel that under this seemingly plain and even absurd funny appearance, there is something hidden behind it. all kinds of restrained emotions.

After going through all the characters in his mind, Li Menglong didn't know how other directors chose actors, but Li Menglong had to be honest and said that he had no specific ideas about the actors. He always believed that actors should not serve the roles, nor should they serve the roles. Said the actor should act like this character.

Please answer from the top. Even from Xu Xian's introduction to architecture, Li Menglong has made it clear that the best and most appropriate thing is to blur the role. Simply put, what is the actor like, what is the character like, let go The hand lets the actor do what he wants.

Although it seems a bit irresponsible, from Seohyun's acting skills to Lee Soon-gyu and even Lee Kwang-soo and Yoon Eun-hye, they are all beneficiaries of Lee Mong-ryong's thinking.

Of course, this also has his limitations, that is, the actor must be suitable, but will Li Eunxi find him a suitable actor? Li Menglong was a little suspicious. You should know that it took less than a week before and after he gave the notebook to Li Enxi. What could he do in a week?
