The Rise of Korean Entertainment

She went to work with three girls in a swagger. In terms of how sexy she was on the way to work, Li Menglong was probably in a class by himself.

If Yoona Sooyoung and Seohyun can accompany them on the way to work every day, I believe that going to work will definitely not be such a painful thing, and many men will even rush to go to work.

Of course, these have no impact on Li Menglong at all. He is definitely tired. Fortunately, he can still watch the work being completed bit by bit. He also has support. If he relied on Yoona for support, he would have given up long ago.

It seemed that she knew her position in Lee Mong-ryong's position. Yoona even avoided acting coquettishly. When they arrived at the crew, the four of them split into two groups. Lee Mong-dragon and Seohyun went to find the crew, while Yoona and Sooyoung came to the actors to chat, and then Just start reviewing your lines.

After a day's rest, I didn't see how relaxed everyone seemed, but I didn't dare to complain to Li Menglong that I was tired. After all, you were given time to rest. Who's your fault for not sleeping honestly?

The crew has passed the initial running-in period, and now they are working together in a busy but orderly manner. Even the actors are like this. Now they no longer need to figure out what the characters should be. After all, the initial positioning has been completed some time ago.

So now they are trying hard to maintain good condition and character, and bring in enough emotion. Ordinary scenes are now usually completed with one or two, and only emotional scenes are more complicated.

This is also a normal phenomenon for the crew. If a 16-episode TV series is filmed for a total of two months, then only six episodes may be filmed in the first month, and ten episodes can be filmed in the remaining month. This is the benefit of familiarity.

For example, a Japanese drama with hundreds of episodes can be filmed for a year. In fact, in the later stage, the actors just go there every day as if they are clocking in to work, and can finish it in an hour or two. This is the benefit of familiarity. .

However, just as we were taking pictures during lunch break today, several cameras from outside came in. A PD came over to say hello to Li Menglong. The two discussed it for a while, and then Li Menglong waved and let them go.

Yoona didn't know what was going on, but she just watched Li Menglong go to lunch by himself, while they were stopped here for some interview.

The show is from MBC. After all, since we have agreed to broadcast it here, the relevant publicity must be done in advance. The only pity is that Running Man is not an MBC show, or why Lee Kwang Soo is not a member of Wuchao, otherwise the gimmick will be more It's also more convenient.

It’s just an interview. This is also a due obligation, but why do you have to do the interview during the lunch break? Why can Li Menglong go to eat but they have to answer questions hungry?

At this time, I wouldn’t believe it if Lee Menglong hadn’t deliberately chosen Yoona. In order not to delay the filming time, Li Menglong did everything he could: “Hey, what did you just ask? I didn’t hear you clearly!”

"I'm asking how it feels to work with Lee Kwang Soo?"

"Kwang Soo Oppa is a very professional actor. I strongly and firmly believe that he was delayed by variety shows!" After speaking, he turned around and patted Lee Kwang Soo on the shoulder: "Why don't Oppa quit Running Man?"

What can Lee Kwang Soo say besides being silly? How much popularity has Running Man brought him? If there was no Running Man, would there be a role for him to play in this drama? So he knows very well which one is the source.

It’s just that you can’t say that in the program. Besides, as two programs on different TV stations, it was not good for Lee Kwang Soo to even mention it. Fortunately, the director team was quite considerate and changed a few questions.

In this kind of non-variety show, jokes are allowed, but they must be appropriate, because there will be no variety show as an excuse to protect the jokes, and it can easily cause misunderstandings.

So when talking about Lee Mong-ryong as a director, even Yoona was much more serious: "Director Lee Mong-ryong is naturally great. He helped me a lot both on and off the screen. I never had time to thank him..."

It happened that Li Menglong came over after eating. Yoona put her hands on her head in a heart shape and said loudly to Li Menglong: "Director, Salang Hey!"

He curled his lips, his disgust was very obvious. Being thanked by the goddess, not to mention being excited, at least give a kind reaction. Lee Menglong's expression made Yoona very embarrassed, and even the program team on the side didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, everyone can guess that Lee Menglong and Yoona have a good relationship in private. There is still discussion on the Internet whether this drama was made by Lee Menglong specifically to make Yoona popular. If this is true, Then there will be more speculation.

For example, Li Menglong wanted to pick up Yoona; or he dumped Yoona and used this as compensation; or after a one-night stand, Yoona threatened her with his child...

There were a lot of unreliable remarks, and now there was finally an official opportunity to ask questions. Li Menglong did not hide, but just let Yoona and the others go to eat first, and he would resist for a while.

However, Yoona didn't go far. She obviously wanted to hear Li Menglong's answer. Li Menglong did not shy away from this question: "Partly for Yoona's reasons, I made an agreement with her to collaborate on a work very early on."

"But the more important thing is that the script itself is suitable enough, Yoona's salary is cheap enough, and the company can make a lot of money by giving her a salary, which is equivalent to another saving!" Li Menglong said this in a joke.

Everyone knows that SW is not short of money now. If necessary, would they save so much money on actors? If the heroine was not chosen by Yoona, would Lee Menglong use idols to take the lead? Don’t you know that many actresses are looking forward to working with him now?

However, given Li Menglong's multi-faceted identity, if he didn't want to answer directly, the reporters would have nothing to say and could only ask about other news with selling points.

"Xiaoxian, her performance is still very good. I will not sugarcoat this point for her. You can ask the ordinary staff of the crew later!" Li Menglong seemed to be praising his own child: "If someone in the future I’m definitely not surprised that Seohyun directed a movie of his own one day!”

Li Menglong's words were already the best compliment to Xu Xian, which made Xu Xian feel a little embarrassed when asked. She quickly and humbly said that she was just dealing with some chores and was also learning the skills of directing. Not as powerful as Li Menglong praised.

The whole crew was in harmony, which surprised the outsiders who were filming. It is not so common to see a harmonious crew. There is no intrigue in the entertainment industry, but there is still some vague joy here.

This means that the reporter didn't ask, otherwise Yoona would definitely complain. They came over a week in advance to take a look. During that time, Yoona and others were at the peak of their acting training, and the entire crew was in a state of turmoil and seriousness.

After taking some daily scenes of the crew, they were politely invited out by Li Menglong. It was considered an enlightenment of Li Menglong to allow them to come over, but the corresponding conditions given by MNC were not bad.

I took the time to call Kim Taeyeon. This girl was still sleeping. Even Li Menglong was a little envious: "I wonder if I can find something for you to do? You are too busy every day!"

"Fart, which eye did you see? You didn't even see it when I was busy. As for our album, Lee Soon Kyu and I were doing it, and no one came to help!" Kim Taeyeon hurriedly defended herself He argued that this matter needs to be clarified.

"Well, you are the busiest and the most tired!" Li Menglong said innocently: "Then please ask the busy Miss Kim Taeyeon to spare some precious time to help me!"

"Looking at your modesty, tell me, it's not impossible to borrow money!"

"That's not enough! There are a bunch of rich women around me." Li Menglong joked and got down to business.

It turns out that Li Menglong was able to agree to the program team coming because MBC agreed to open up the entire MBC song library to select songs for Li Menglong's TV series. This really solved Li Menglong's urgent need.

Sw's accumulation of music is still too weak, and the songs in TV dramas are all ballads. Where there are so many high-quality ballads appearing in a rush, this is all a matter of time.

Fortunately, MBC has accumulated enough experience in this area, but Li Menglong's sensitivity to music is no different from ordinary people, and he really doesn't have time, so he decided to focus on Kim Taeyeon.

"You mean I go to MBC to help select the OST for your TV series?"

"bingo! That's it!"

"Don't go!"

"What's going on? You don't need to answer so firmly, right?" Li Menglong said quickly.

"Hmph, let your Li Soonkyu go!"

Li Menglong immediately understood in his heart that this was a typical example of Naoqiao, so he said a lot of good things: "Isn't this the time when you saved a TV series with your song "If"? I just thought that you would choose You sing the song yourself, and our TV series will become popular thanks to your ost!"

"Tsk, tsk, you're a bargain!" Kim Taeyeon said proudly. The song "If" was indeed a song that boosted the ratings of a TV series. This is something Kim Taeyeon can brag about for the rest of her life.

Deliberately choosing her tone, Kim Taeyeon seemed to be the leader of the inspection: "I'm talking about Xiao Li..."

"Ah, who are you talking about?" Li Menglong asked on the other end of the phone, dumbfounded.

"Ahem, after all, you have to work hard when shooting, you know? You can't always take shortcuts! Although my OST can indeed increase your ratings by 20%, but don't think of relying entirely on me. You Say what I said..."

Lee Soon Kyu really couldn't stand listening to it anymore and was nauseated even while sleeping. If Kim Taeyeon had this ability, then all the directors would stop filming and come over to kneel down and beg her to please Kim Taeyeon.

He forcefully snatched the phone away: "Ah, why don't you come to me for this kind of thing? I can sing very well too!"

"There are more than one ost in a TV series. You two go together and sing whichever song you like. That's okay, right?" It seems that there is someone named Li Menglong over there, so he stopped joking: "What about MBC?" I’ve just said hello, don’t be polite, they owe me a favor, so they must choose a good song!”

"Don't worry, I'm invincible!" Kim Taeyeon shouted at the other end.
