Chapter 87 Life is a Play



He rubbed his sleepy eyes, stood up and asked, "Oppa, is that you?"

"Oh, it's me." Choi Wan-sik burped, and a strong smell of alcohol filled the air.

Lin Xiuyan came out in her pajamas. Her face changed the moment she saw him. She suppressed her anger and said, "Oppa, why are you drinking again?"

"Yes, it's work-related, socializing."

"Does your job require you to entertain people? Do you hang out like close friends, discussing how to pay them?"

"Hey."

Cui Wanzhi straightened his chest and said in a muffled voice: "Can you be nicer? I've heard enough nagging outside."

His job is not as easy as it seems. He has to deal with countless people every day.

Get all the 'eyes' and let everyone know what they should and shouldn't do.

Care about the family, psychological and economic conditions of members, calculate profits, discuss strategies, and think about how to use the information in hand.

From time to time, I also have to act as a mentor to the members, give them lessons, and teach them how to speak.

It was enough to make him upset just to make his men understand what he was saying.

Why go home? Can't he be left alone for a while.

"Are you impatient? Is that so?" Lin Xiuyan's anger completely exploded and she chased him relentlessly.

Choi Wan-sik wanted to retort, but for some reason he held back.

He sighed deeply in his heart, forced his dizzy brain and tired body to grab her shoulders, and forced a smile: "No, of course not, I'm sorry, it's my fault."

When did the situation become like this?

Looking at the face in front of him that was full of disgust, chattering about the past, and talking about his mistakes over and over again countless times.

Cui Wanzhi suddenly felt that she was so strange at this moment.

Who is she?! ...

"Ah~" Collapsing on the sofa, Li Zhenyu leaned back, spread his hands and let out a hearty moan.

The feeling of having a good night's sleep is really great.

"Oppa, did you sleep well?" Sun Yinzhu crawled out from under the blanket.

Li Zhenyu sat up straight, opened his eyes and said, "Yes, I slept well."

Seeing the silk lines at the corners of her mouth, Li Zhenyu leaned over, took out a tissue, and gently wiped the corners of her mouth.

"Go wash up!"

"Inside."

Sun Yinzhu went to wash up and seriously considered what kind of hearty and loving breakfast to make for him.

Li Zhenyu was thinking about another thing, the meeting with Bong Joon-ho and the subsequent filming plans.

"Parasite" and "The Heists" started filming at the same time, but he was not so lucky this time. The former was filmed 11 years earlier, and he needed to re-select the entire cast.

Fortunately, "The Thieves" did not require him to spend too much experience because Lee Jin-woo handed it over to Bong Joon-ho.

Everything, from casting to filming and finally the director’s signature.

Li Zhenyu will only appear in the positions of producer and screenwriter, and he needs to cultivate his own people belonging to the Z system.

It is impossible for him to focus on these things all the time. The earlier he prepares, the more at ease he will be when he needs to leave, allowing the power to be transferred naturally.

Oh, except for one person, the female lead of this drama.

That’s right, it’s Jun Ji-hyun.

Hot and sexy lady, after meeting her, Li Zhenyu must let her wear Cheon Song Yi's slit short skirt for him once.

Wow~ that's really hot.

"Oppa, breakfast is ready, come and see what I prepared for you."

Why Li Zhenyu was not surprised at all by the smiley faces and hearts made of fried eggs and sausages.

Yoon Hye Na seems to have done this too, as well as Lee Joo Bin...

Although her cooking was not as beautiful as that of her two predecessors, at least it tasted good.

Having said that, Li Zhenyu still said with a look of surprise: "This is amazing, I didn't know you had such skills."

Sun Yinzhu smiled modestly: "This is my first time making it, Oppa, let me try it and see how it tastes."

"Okay." Li Zhenyu picked up the fork, cut off a small piece, put it on the fork and put it into his mouth.

Then, with great joy...

"Hmm~ delicious, so delicious." Li Zhenyu had an exaggerated expression as he chewed the fried egg in his mouth happily.

"That's great. I was worried it wouldn't taste good... ah, I almost forgot about the milk."

While Sun Yinzhu ran to the kitchen, Li Zhenyu grabbed the little black boy who felt the danger and wanted to jump off the chair to escape: "Be good, open your mouth."

Before Xiao Heizi could figure out what was happening, the plate had already appeared next to his mouth.

Then its head tilted back uncontrollably, the plate tilted, and the fried eggs and ham soaked in the smell of raw oil slid into its mouth like silk.

Snap!

Heizi's mouth was held up and down by two fingers, and then his limbs were off the ground and his body swayed back and forth uncontrollably, as if he had epilepsy.

"Oppa, what's wrong with the cat?" Holding the hot milk, Sun Yinzhu looked at him with a puzzled look on her face.

Li Zhenyu, who was holding the little black boy in one hand, smiled and said, "It seems to have indigestion. I am treating it. This will help digestion..."

The little black boy who was held in his hand seemed to understand what he said, and his eyes were full of incredible questions.

Xiao Heizi: Who is this dog? Where is my master's silver? "Really?" Sun Yinzhu put down the milk uncertainly and saw the empty plate on the table.

"I'm stuffed."

Holding the dizzy little Heizi in his arms, Li Zhenyu reminded her that someone would be coming later.

"Oh, I almost forgot."

Later, the president will introduce her to director Bong Joon-ho and let her play a role in his new drama.

This was her chance, and Sun Yinzhu didn't want to mess it up.

Bong Joon-ho waited in the lobby for half an hour, and pressed the call button according to the time: "President Li, it's me..."

Asking him to sit down in the living room, Sun Yinzhu walked out of the room wearing simple and refreshing casual clothes.

There is no absolute protagonist in "The Thieves". Ye Nicole played by Jun Ji-hyun, Popeye played by Lee Jung-jae, Mom Gum, lock-picking expert Pepsi, and former member Macau Park are all protagonists.

On the Yan Country side, the team led by Chen...

How to put it, it's more like I came here to make a cameo appearance and have a romance with my big brother.

However, there is nothing to complain about.

Foreign guest appearances have never had too many parts, let alone Xiao Xiba’s.

"Have you read the script?" Li Zhenyu went straight to the point and got straight to business.

Everyone's time is valuable, so let's not get into small talk and politeness.

Besides, if Lee Jin-woo was really polite to him, it would only make Bong Joon-ho more embarrassed and restrained.

The class gap is too big, so you have to be careful when responding to a question. It would be more comfortable to talk about business as soon as possible.

Bong Joon-ho has read the script and he has two questions.

First of all, why did you join the Yan Country Thieves Group? Is it because you want to publish it in Yan Country?

Second, whether the casting can support this play.

"Pepsi." Li Zhenyu pointed to Sun Yinzhu beside him and introduced him to the scheduled actors of Pepsi.

Feng Junhao frowned unnaturally. This woman is too beautiful! "Um, President, is she too beautiful?" Feng Junhao was worried that he would misunderstand, so he explained according to his own thoughts.

The characters in this play are professional thieves, each of whom has special skills.

Moreover, there is already a character positioned as a "beauty" in the drama, and her joining will weaken Jun Ji-hyun's presence.

It’s not that she is prettier than Jun Ji-hyun.

It is the kind of intuitive temptation that makes people feel the impulse of primitive desire.

If she had joined, the task of robbing the art gallery at the beginning of the movie should not have been given to Yenikko, played by Jun Ji-hyun, but to her.

Compared to Jun Ji-hyun, she is obviously more suitable for seducing men because she can directly arouse people's desire.

There is nothing wrong with this beauty, but it makes people ignore her performance and focus on desire.

At the same time, it will also cause the audience to question the profession of the character she plays.

In the movies directed by Taylor Swift, women can be beautiful, have hot bodies, and possess multiple skills, making them perfect like superwomen.

But in South Korea, now...

It is better for women not to be so outstanding, because even women themselves deny the existence of such same-sex people.

This damn desire to win, the twisted and entangled combination of inferiority and arrogance.

"Do you mean that she is not suitable for this play?" Li Zhenyu's expression became serious and his tone became heavier.

Bong Joon-ho felt a strong sense of oppression coming towards him, and the sharpness in the other person's eyes made him lack the courage to look him in the face.

Bong Joon-ho wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and hesitantly gritted his teeth and insisted: "Yes, she may not fit the role."

Bong Joon-ho knew that what he was doing was bold and reckless.

But he also has his own persistence, especially when he saw Li Zhenyu's high requirements for filming in the "New World" crew.

Strive for perfection!

He hopes that his own films can be completed to the same standard.

If you want to strive for perfection, you must have the most suitable role, especially there should be no overlap in role positioning.

The biggest problem is that Jun Ji-hyun and Son Yoon-joo are over-positioned.

Just imagine how bad things would be if two characters with overlapping traits appeared in the same movie.

Silence, one second, two seconds, three seconds...

Sun Yinzhu showed disappointment on her face. The longer she waited, the less likely she would get the role.

Now, she has given up hope.

"Go out, I hope you won't let me down." Li Zhenyu waved his hand, leaned back and closed his eyes, clearly ordering him to leave.

Bong Joon-ho opened his mouth with an unpleasant expression, but couldn't utter a word.

"Oppa!" After Bong Joon-ho left, Sun Yinzhu looked at him with tears in her eyes.

Li Zhenyu opened his eyes, held her in his arms and comforted her: "Don't worry, don't worry baby, I will arrange other roles for you, just do your job well for the time being, don't let people find fault with you, okay?"

With his comfort, Sun Yinzhu finally stopped crying and the performance ended.

Appropriate tears can arouse a man's sympathy, but too many will have the opposite effect and become annoying.

Showing her well-behaved side, she held the little black boy who was hiding in the corner and said pitifully that she would be obedient and wait for him to come back at home.

The elevator goes down directly to the underground garage.

When the door opened, Li Zhenyu saw Kim Jung Suk standing next to the Land Rover and Bong Joon-ho who had just left.

"President." Bong Joon-ho smiled and waved, greeting him.

The solemnity on Li Zhenyu's face melted away like a glacier. "Let's go. Is the crew ready?"

PS: We have had many old book friends supporting us for a long time, and some have drifted away. I am really happy to see old book friends return.

I would like to especially thank Xue Zhi Tian Shu (book friend) for his 10,000 coins reward and support. Thank you very much! The group number will be announced in the introduction page, and it should be ready before tomorrow. Please pay attention. Kang Sang Mi Da.
