Chapter 75 Chapter 75 Don’t I have a male protagonist...
On the last night before leaving Paris, all the staff of Star Love as well as the staff of Kwon Ji-yong and Lee Joo-hyuk got together for dinner. The rich man generously booked a restaurant for an authentic French meal, and it was very lively.
The boss naturally shouldn't attend the staff's dinner. After the three protagonists finished eating, they went to a corner to chat. Li Zhuhe was sure that Zhilong looked very happy now. He always unconsciously kept his eyes on Quan Xingai.
"Zhilong, you've changed so much in the past two years. What's the magic of Neo? Or is it the magic of Xingai?" Li Zhuhe leaned on the sofa and looked at his friend. In the crowd in the distance, Quan Xingai was still arguing with Kimi about France and Italy.
"Maybe it's because I encountered a miracle. I'm grateful to God and so I'm tolerant of everything."
"You're so corny... I have to say you two are really a good match for each other," Li Zhuhe shook his head.
"Yes, I told you long ago that Xing'ai and I are a perfect match." Quan Zhilong smiled.
"Actually, Leclerc is quite worthy of being a friend. I was drinking with him yesterday, and when he was drunk he told me that if Xingai didn't already have a boyfriend, he would probably like her too. I told him that you two are like Romeo and Juliet who overcame numerous difficulties and obstacles to finally be together. He was a little stunned, and then seemed to admire and worship you even more." Li Zhuhe spoke slowly, holding back his laughter.
Kwon Ji-yong raised his eyebrows and looked at the gossipy Lee Joo-hyuk, "Who made my Star Love so popular? It's normal to fall in love with her." As he spoke, Kwon Ji-yong seemed to remember something funny and couldn't help laughing.
"What's going on?" Li Zhuhe asked curiously.
"After I saw this miracle, it felt like the whole world was helping me. This morning, before going to the rose garden, I ran into Hyun-ho. He looked at me and told me that Star Love was coming back to China to give me a final confession ceremony. He also said he'd give me a sea of daisies and a new melody. My little one is so adorable! Why is he still thinking about this kind of ceremony when we're already together?"
"Tsk tsk, look at your happy expression, are you happy now?" Li Zhuhe was also infected by Zhilong's good mood.
"Yes, Zhu He, this period is the happiest time I have had since Nu Na passed away in 2016." Kwon Ji Long looked at his old friend and laughed, but Li Zhu He was stunned. Ji Long could finally laugh and call out Sarah Nu Na's name. It seemed that he really got over the haze.
"Seeing you like this, I finally feel relieved. You look so motivated. Do you need to prepare well for your return this time?" Li Zhuhe smiled and looked away at Xingai who was not far away. She was always full of energy, in control of the overall situation, and a party animal. She was really like Zhilong in the past, and also very similar to Sarah.
No matter what, their happiness is the most important thing.
"Yes, oh by the way, Zhu He, your contract is about to expire, right? Do you want to continue working at Waiji?" Quan Zhilong remembered to ask Li Zhu He, saying that Zhu He went to Waiji because of his recommendation, but he called him in and left himself.
"Oppa, what are you talking about staying in Waiji? Who?" Quan Xingai won the debate with Kimi, a Japanese who had Paris syndrome, and walked over holding a small Italian flag of the next show venue, just in time to hear the second half of Kwon Ji-yong's sentence.
Kwon Ji-yong smiled and pulled her to sit down, thinking to himself, although her soul has not changed, Nuna is really getting more and more accustomed to the title of Oppa, and it is really great that he is 10 years older than her.
"Oh, it's me. Zhilong asked me if I want to renew the contract with Waiji." Li Zhuhe said.
The way he sits by the window in a suit and holds a glass of wine blends perfectly with the atmosphere of Paris, showing what handsomeness and elegance are. Kwon Ji-Dragon and Jeon Star-Ae are the rebellious Parisians under the elegant appearance.
"Zhu He told me that you shouldn't renew your contract. We are the iron triangle now. Come to neon. Our president plans to expand our territory and set up an actor department." Quan Xingai, a loyal supporter of President Wen, is recruiting people for his own company.
"Xing Ai is right, Zhu He, you can consider it - why are you looking at me, Arasso, I asked you to go to Waiji before but I didn't renew the contract, so I called you this time!" Quan Zhilong said very logically.
"How's it going?"
Li Zhuhe turned his head and saw two faces with similar expressions. One had brackets and the other had dimples. Ha, these two people are really...
"I'll think about it." He replied helplessly.
"Okay, then there's a play. I'll go talk to Director Jin when we get back to Seoul. Oh, Director Jin is the manager in charge of recruiting talent for the casting department. I heard that Director Jin's plan is to find a few relatively unknown child stars who are easier to train. Mature artists usually choose companies run by professional actors, so I'll first invite our neon casting department's general - Dangdangdang Vampire Prince Lee Joo Hyukxi!"
Why is it that Quan Xing Ai She is awesome? When the information is needed, her role is reflected. Quan Zhilong and Li Zhuhe were very happy to see her.
"Yes, I get it. Star Love is really great. As an idol, it can rank first or second on the annual list, and it can also be successful as an actor." Li Zhuhe sighed.
"Oh, that's not all. I'll probably be a stage actor when I get back soon—ah! I completely forgot about that, but now I suddenly remember that I still have a filming assignment to hand in for Seoul University. It's about the modern artistic expression of Hamlet. The plot and core cannot be changed. It needs to be filmed in a new form..."
Quan Xingai, who was originally laughing, suddenly stopped as if struck by lightning. This was simply because the vacation was about to end and school was about to start tomorrow, but she hadn't done any homework.
"Mo? Is this a filming assignment at Seoul University? Oh, Mo, it's very interesting, I like this theme very much!" People's joys and sorrows are not the same, but Kwon Ji-yong is very interested in learning about it.
"Yes, because my major is theatre arts, so artistic expression is more important. Acting isn't really the focus of the class. Anyway, our major isn't about training actors. We focus more on stage actors and behind-the-scenes staff. I wrote a plan before coming here. I was supposed to start shooting footage as soon as I arrived, but The Sun disrupted my plans."
Quan Xing Ai suddenly became discouraged. There was only one night left...
"Then let's shoot together tonight. Hamlet only needs one protagonist. If we can't finish shooting in Paris, we can go to Milan to shoot more. It's not a big difference. Aren't all European cities like that?" Li Zhuhe comforted.
"What was your original plan for the script and filming?" asked Kwon Ji-yong.
"Yes, I had it in mind: the philosophy of reality and illusion between oil painting, neon lights, and mirror reflections, the classical and the modern, corresponding to to be or not to be."
"Then let's start filming tonight. What could be more suitable for the intersection of art and fantasy than Paris at night?" Kwon Ji-yong is a man of action. He immediately pulled Jeon Seong-ae out and asked STF as they walked, "Jaewook, tomorrow's flight to Italy is in the afternoon, right?"
"Yeah, you guys?"
"Xing Ai still has a Seoul University project to shoot, so let's go back to the hotel first."
Quan Xingai thought about what Quan Zhilong said and felt that it was very clever. She also said to the photographer, "Uncle, I need to use your camera tonight. I completely forgot my homework."
"No problem, Xingai, do you want me to help you?"
"You guys continue eating, don't worry about us, I can handle my homework by myself."
The spring nights in Paris were already warm, with the temperature rising back into the double digits. The restaurant was close to the hotel, and the three of them strolled along the river, Quan Xingai discussing her artistic vision...
"I originally wanted to find a studio in Paris and use oil paintings and mirrored neon lights to present it, but I just had a new idea. Zhilong, let's go to that concert hall and use music to present it. The classical prince is being torn apart by the modern era, fugue or distortion, dream or reality - mainly this way it will be easier to shoot and better to present."
"Okay, but if you're filming it yourself, do you have to perform it yourself?"
"No, don't I have a male protagonist? The little prince of music." Quan Xingai smiled.
"Oh—please treat me. I'm very expensive."
"I don't even need to shoot your front, just your back will be fine. But, speaking of Zhilong, to be honest, Zhu Hege's back is more suitable. Anyway, I've already gone back to produce the soundtrack."
"Hey, I don't want to get involved in the fight between you two." Li Zhuhe declined politely to protect himself.
"You see, your leading man can only be me."
The three of them returned to the hotel, got their cameras and lighting props, and went to the 16th-century concert hall again. They even visited the concert hall manager to get the key and borrowed the hall for one night.
The way Quan Xingai picked up the camera looked quite realistic. The scenes and plot were all in Xingai's mind. The three of them traveled back and forth throughout the city of Paris all night, from the 16th-century concert hall to the ancient monastery, interspersed with the neon lights and illusion of mirrors at night.
When they actually started filming Star Love, she found that there was no one more suitable to be her male lead than Kwon Ji-yong. His long hair with a golden gradient was tied behind his head with a lace headband, and the tattoo of seraph's wings was faintly visible. The vintage YSL clothes and the fiery gems made him look both classic and modern in the camera and in the night sky, as if he was telling a story just by standing there.
In order to facilitate filming, Quan Xingai used the violin as an instrument. Quan Zhilong didn't know how to play the violin, but he looked very good. The three of them filmed all night, and it was almost 4 o'clock when the last shot was finished.
Quan Xingai was still a little reluctant to leave, so she returned to the hotel and lay on her bed, looking at the materials on her computer. There were no lines, and just looking at these raw materials was like his personal photo album. Quan Xingai herself felt that she had taken good-looking photos of Quan Zhilong. While thinking about this, she couldn't help but ask Quan Zhilong to come and see as well. Yes, Quan Zhilong, the master of staying up late, of course didn't sleep either.
"Look at this clip of you walking down a deserted alley with your guitar in your hand. I start with your footsteps and then get a close-up of the back of your neck. Wow, isn't that super sexy?"
"Tsk tsk, so this is how Xing'ai sees me." Quan Zhilong raised his eyebrows and hugged his girlfriend, looking cocky and proud.
"Oh, it's morning. Go to sleep and stop being narcissistic." Quan Xingai yawned and ignored his narcissism.
"Nuna has been watching me the whole time. It was almost dawn when we got to the hotel, and he was still watching me." The bad fox started to act like a spoiled child again. "So the homework doesn't need to be kept secret, right?"
Quan Xingai smiled and looked into Quan Zhilong's sparkling eyes and said, "You still say you're not conceited, but I know what you're going to do. Go ahead and post it..."
Quan Xingai took out her mobile phone and sent the material to Quan Zhilong, and then continued to look at the material shot today. After a while, she took out her mobile phone and started to check IG. Sure enough, xxxibgdrgn uploaded a new snapshot 3 minutes ago.
She clicked on it, and the few seconds of video were covered with a thick filter, making her look more like a medieval little prince. The background music was the song FOR G that she had played in the studio. Quan Xingai smiled and gave him a thumbs up. This song finally returned to G's side.
The close-up of the wings on the back of the neck and the antique violin on the side of the neck, combined with the sad tune of FOR G, gives an inexplicable sense of grandeur and sacredness. Although it was late at night in Paris, it was already dawn in Asia. Seeing that Brother Long posted a new snapshot, fans became excited again.
[Wow, he looks so good in this outfit! He totally looks like a prince!]
What is this? What is this? What is this?
[Ah ...
[Shashasha, so sexy! This neck tattoo is amazing! It goes so well with the violin!]
The soundtrack is the same violin tune from Blade 2. This is over, you Long are really in love... It should be around 4am in Paris now, is he still awake?
[kkk is still in love even though she is in her thirties. She just stopped pretending when she was photographed.]
So, are the two of them in love?
Leclerc didn't play at the F1 race this week, but he did give an interview. When asked by The Sun if he'd have a chance to meet his rumored girlfriend, Blade II, again, Leclerc replied directly that he had invited three new friends to visit the Ferrari base at the next race.
So after returning to Korea for half a month, I'm going to fly to Italy right away?
But doesn't this mean we're inviting three new friends? Teacher, are Lock & Lock and Suho going to be the third wheel again?
[Forget it, I don't care. I just want to know what this new material is. Can I see the full version?]
...Easter Egg·Soon After...
[The material solved the case. Holy crap, I'm convinced.]
[What? Stop being a riddler.]
[The violin, which resembled the medieval Little Prince, solved the case...]
What! The materials have been released? I can’t find them. The official blog doesn’t have them?

[Ahhhhhh fans are tearfully looking for material from 'sister-in-law', it's hell]
