The group was kicked out, and low presence means they are bad?

In a luxurious large flat somewhere in Gangnam District, Seoul.

Bai Xingjian couldn't help laughing as he watched the KBS live broadcast on TV.

"Why didn't I know they were so good at talking before?"

Bai Xingjian grinned and said, "Could it be that after staying in the country for too long, they have really learned something?"

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Didn't they both drink several glasses of white wine at the dinner party earlier?"

Mei Jie raised her eyebrows and responded with a smile.

Bai Xingjian waved his hand and said, "I didn't ask them to drink the wine. I hate this kind of obedience test the most."

Feng Shiqi, who was standing by, sneered when he heard this: "You are quite annoying, but for Huang Hedong and Li Zhengzai, they would rather be like this."

The salary and remuneration offered by Bai Xingjian were very good, so Huang Hedong and Lee Jung Jae naturally followed the local customs and wanted to leave a good impression in front of Bai Xingjian.

So at the dinner that day, the two of them toasted Bai Xingjian.

Bai Xingjian naturally accepted it with pleasure, but he used red wine.

It’s not that he has any problem with Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae, it’s just that he never drinks white wine at dinner parties.

Not only is it unpalatable, but the alcohol content is also high and it is simply unbearable.

"Brother Xingjian, it would definitely be more interesting if you also went to the KBS interview this time."

Looking at the answers to the questions and the comments rolling like a tide on the screen, Mei Jie couldn't help but speak.

"I'll go? It's just a formality on KBS' part. If I really go, they won't be happy."

Bai Xingjian shook his head and laughed.

The staff at KBS actually contacted Bai Xingjian, but the meaning of their words and deeds revealed the feeling of "Don't come over."

As for Bai Xingjian, although he has a lot of free time recently, he really doesn't want to get involved with these media in Coria.

So KBS didn't want Bai Xingjian to go there, and Bai Xingjian himself didn't want to go there either, so naturally everyone would be fine.

However, judging from the current situation, KBS probably did not expect that Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae would often mention Bai Xingjian when discussing certain topics.

Just like now.

Choi Eun-hee asked Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae a question, saying, "Sung Ki-hoon in Squid Game is a very complicated character. Did you encounter any difficulties during the filming of this character?"

Choi Eun-hee first turned her gaze to Hwang Hyuk-dong.

Huang Hedong immediately sat up straight after hearing this, then glanced at Li Zhengzai and said with a smile:

"Actually, there was. It was mainly because Jung Jae was not in the right state at the beginning of the filming."

"Oh? Not in shape?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Cui Enxi was instantly interested.

The same was true for the netizens in the live broadcast room.

Li Zhengzai justified himself: "Is it because I am not in good condition? It is obvious that Bai Xingjianxi's requirements are too high."

Cui Enxi: "..."

Kim Tae Hee: “…”

Here it comes again, Bai Xingjian came out of Li Zhengzai's mouth again.

But there is no way around it, this question must be asked.

So Kim Tae-hee just nodded at Choi Eun-hee, motioning him to continue asking.

Cui Enxi blinked and asked, "Oh? Bai Xingjianxi's request is too high? What's going on?"

"What else could it be? It's just that the Sung Ki-hoon I first tried didn't taste right."

Lee Jung-jae seemed to have found a place to vent, and he talked nonstop: "When I first played the role of Sung Ki-hoon, I probably didn't fully understand the role, so I failed to pass several scenes. It was not until Bai Xing Jianxi personally came out to guide me that I truly understood the essence of Sung Ki-hoon's role.

It can be said that Cheng Qixun's extremely demanding characteristics and state at the beginning were all created by Bai Xingjianxi.

And it's not just me, the character Cheng Qixun. Bai Xingjianxi has his own unique ideas for almost every character in "Squid Game".

Everything that is now presented in "Squid Game" was shot scene by scene according to his ideas."

"That's right!"

Huang Hedong nodded in agreement and said:
"Bai Xing Jianxi helped us a lot during the filming process. It's no problem to say that he is the director of Squid Game."

"Is Bai Xingjianxi so powerful?"

Cui Enxi nodded and said, "Maybe it's because he wrote the script himself?"

“It is true that there is a relationship in this regard, but it is not entirely true.”

Huang Hedong also talked about it at this time: "After all, the script and the actual shooting are completely different things.

The former is to present a fictional situation to the actors through text, indicating how the scene should be performed.

The latter shows the audience the real picture through the camera, indicating what the scene is about.

The gap between the two is like a chasm, but Bai Xingjianxi seems to have integrated the two. It's as if he has gone over "Squid Game" in his mind and knows how to shoot this shot, what kind of background music to play in the next segment, when to transition, and when to leave blank space.

Such ability..."

At this point, Huang Hedong couldn't help but shake his head and praised: "I think he is better than some professionals in the industry."

Li Zhengzai, who was standing by, couldn't help nodding as he heard what he said.

Because he has the same feeling: "If Bai Xingjianxi devotes all his energy to being a director, his achievements will probably be inestimable."

Choi Eun-hee was also deeply shocked by the emotional expressions of Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae.

Of course, he was also shocked by Bai Xingjian's professional ability.

Who is Huang Hedong?
Even Corea's top-notch director praised Bai Xingjian so much, so Bai Xingjian must be truly talented.

However, netizens in the live broadcast room did not think so. They thought about other things.

[No, if I remember correctly, the theme of this live interview was to discuss "Squid Game", right? Why are Huang Hedong and Li Zhengzai always praising Bai Xingjian here? Is Bai Xingjian so worthy of praise? ]

[What do you think? Some people can’t even blow it if they want to! ]

[The blowing you mentioned is best without any color! ]

[Where is the exaggeration? Aren't Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae describing the facts? If this is called exaggeration, then I guess many people have been exaggerating to the sky. ]

[So Bai Xingjian is really that powerful? ]

[What if it's not the other way around? Are the performances of "All or Nothing" and "Crazy" in China fake? ]

[As expected of my White God! 】

[Bai Xingjian, I want to give birth to a baby for you! ]

Bai Xingjian, who was watching the live broadcast on TV, was a little embarrassed by what Huang Hedong and Li Zhengzai said. "It turns out that being praised is such an embarrassing thing." Bai Xingjian shrank his neck and felt goose bumps all over his body.

"Is this a compliment? Isn't this just stating a fact?"

Mei Jie smiled at Bai Xingjian.

She had often followed Bai Xingjian around the filming set of "Squid Game", so she was naturally very familiar with these things.

All I can say is that Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae did not exaggerate at all.

"And Brother Xing Jian, you might as well change your career and become a director. For example, when you were filming Squid Game, I felt like inviting Huang Hedong was just a decoration."

Mei Jie proposed to Bai Xingjian very seriously.

Bai Xingjian smiled and waved his hands, "How can it be so exaggerated? Besides, I haven't systematically studied any knowledge related to directing. At most, I have some ideas of my own. I can't even be considered a novice. So, professional matters should be left to professionals."

"But you are still organized and clear in doing things on the set?" Mei Jie asked puzzledly.

"Then I guess we can only say that he does have some talent in this area."

Bai Xingjian smiled and said, "But it's not possible for me to be a full-time director. After all, I still have a lot of work to do. How can I concentrate on being a director?"

"Oh, that's right."

Mei Jie now remembered that in addition to filming, Bai Xingjian had a lot of things to do.

On the TV.

The interview about Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae is still going on.

"This time we chose a topic that netizens are most concerned about..."

Choi Eun-hee looked at Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae, took out a question card with a smile on her face, and asked, "In the first episode of Squid Game, was the scene where the mysterious man played by Bai Xing Jianxi and your character Sung Ki-hoon slapped each other in the subway station real?"

As soon as this question came out, netizens in the live broadcast room also became excited.

[Wow, you actually dare to ask this question. You really deserve to be our KBS's official host! ]

[The slap in "Squid Game" is so realistic, it shouldn't be a fake one, right? ]

[I feel like most of them are fake fans. Don’t underestimate today’s photography technology.]

[Unless it was a special effect, it was definitely a real slap. That slapping scene was so realistic! ]

[Special effects? If even a slap in the face requires special effects, then our entertainment industry is really going to be over! ]

[Don't worry, our actors in Corea are not that fragile. Let alone slapping, even the fighting scenes with kicks are real and not fake at all! ]

As the audience in the live broadcast room discussed, Lee Jung Jae also began to answer the question: "Yes, it is a real fan."

“It’s actually a real fan.”

Cui Enxi sighed, and then continued to ask: "Excuse me, did Li Zhengzaixi feel any discomfort when filming this scene?"

Li Zhengzai shook his head and said, "It's just acting. It's actually very normal. There's nothing wrong with it."

Cui Enxi nodded and continued to ask: "Then may I ask if this scene was originally in the script, or was it added temporarily by Bai Xingjianxi?"

“It’s already in the script.”

Li Zhengzai nodded, and thought of the recent debate among domestic netizens on this topic, so he continued to explain:

"In fact, at the beginning, the actor who played the role of the mysterious man was not Bai Xing Jianxi, but someone else. However, something happened to that actor's family, so he didn't continue filming, and then Bai Xing Jianxi took over the role of the mysterious man."

“Is there such a story behind it?”

Cui Enxi smiled and nodded, "It seems that the filming process of "Squid Game" was also very tortuous and difficult."

[Hahaha, this host really made me laugh. Does he really want to point the finger at Bai Xingjian?]

[It seems like he really wanted to do it, but what was the result? As soon as he pointed the finger at him, Lee Jung Jae came over to protect him. ]

[What kind of sword-carrying guard is Bai Xingjian? ]

[Not to mention Lee Jung Jae, there's even a guard sitting next to him! ]

[I am really impressed. Didn’t they invite Bai Xingjian to this interview? Why did Lee Jung Jae and Hwang Hyuk Dong keep speaking for him? ]

[It is not normal for workers to speak up for their bosses. Do you dare to cricket your boss in public? Do you want to stop working?]

The audience in the live broadcast room was talking about it.

Next, Choi Eun-hee asked some more questions about "Squid Game" before ending the interview.

Backstage.

Kim Tae-hee's face turned a little dark when she looked at the live broadcast data of this interview.

In the live broadcast room, netizens' discussion about Bai Xingjian was nearly 25%, which was beyond Kim Tae-hee's expectations.

KBS's official reporter Park Min-jun asked Kim Tae-hee, "How should we report this interview? Hwang Hyuk-dong and Lee Jung-jae keep talking about Bai Xingjian. I'm afraid we can't ignore Bai Xingjian even if we want to, right?"

The live interview just ended, but netizens were already having fun on Naver.

It is said that Bai Xingjian is a top promoter of Korean Wave and has brought Korean culture to the world stage.

In this situation, if KBS continues to pretend to be blind and not see Bai Xingjian, the possibility of failure is very high.

Kim Tae-hee was staring at the screen with a frown on her face.

He was also thinking about this question in his mind.

neglect?

Huang Hedong and Lee Jung Jae both praised Bai Xingjian to the sky, so how can this be ignored?

There's no way to ignore this!

"Forget it, let's be more open-minded and put Bai Xingjian's name directly in the title."

After a moment of hesitation, Kim Tae-hee said decisively, "By the way, invite Bai Xingjian again. This time, we must show our sincerity! The audience is talking about him so much. If he can participate in our KBS live interview, the show effect will definitely be very explosive!"

Kim Tae-hee already had a plan in mind, which was to invite Bai Xingjian over for an exclusive interview with Huang Dong-hyuk and Lee Jung-jae.

And there is no need to worry about content duplication, after all, there is so much content in this area.

Besides, the next interview will be led by Bai Xingjian, and there will be many topics to ask.

"Ok, I see."

Park Min-jun smiled and said, "I feel like we made a very wise choice this time."

"I hope so."

Kim Tae-hee sighed, obviously still having some concerns about this.

But since the discussion about Bai Xingjian is inevitable, why not welcome him with open arms?

Take a step back and the world will be wider! (End of this chapter)
