Peninsula Entertainment started from Reply 1988

Chapter 358 "When a Man Falls in Love" is set

The next day, early morning.

Jin Qixuan was still on the toilet, swiping his phone in a daze.

I was caught off guard when I received an indiscriminate push notification from the NAVER website - "Song Song and Song Ji-hye are divorced."

Looking at the title on the push, Jin Qixuan was slightly stunned.

Then, he clicked on the push message.

[First of all, I am announcing some bad news to everyone who loves me. I have been adjusting to my divorce from Song Hye Kyo. It is difficult to tell you about my private life, please understand. I will get over the pain now and devote myself to my work as an actor.]

This news was a divorce statement released by Song Joong-ki early in the morning.

Song Hye Kyo was not informed.

In other words, Song Joong-ki did not discuss it with her and directly filed a "divorce mediation application" through his agent.

Song Hye Kyo was told of divorce.

You should know that under the marriage laws of the peninsula, the party who is at fault for the breakdown of the marriage cannot initiate divorce proceedings.

That means on the surface.

The one who was at fault for their divorce was Song Hye Kyo.

Soon after, Song Hye Kyo also issued a statement through her agency:
[The reason for the divorce was the differences in their personalities, which both parties were unable to overcome.]

Then, the news about their divorce instantly became the number one trending search on NAVER.

Even China’s hot searches were dominated by “Song-Song couple’s divorce”.

You know, "Descendants of the Sun" was not only popular in Peninsula China.

In China, it also set off a trend.

Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo also took advantage of this trend to become one of the most well-known Peninsula stars in China.

However, there have been no subsequent collaborative works released between the two.

But both sides still have a large number of fans in China.

After all, the filters for Yoo Shi Jin and Kang Mo Yeon are too heavy.

I remember when Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo got married, there were a lot of blessings online.

The wedding scene was packed with stars.

Park Bo Gum played the piano live and Kim Ki-hyun sang.

Lee Kwang-soo and Yoo Ah-in read the letters respectively.

Most of the artists in the entertainment industry sent their blessings.

But who would have thought.

In less than two years, the marriage of these once sweet couple broke down.

Maybe it’s the region, or maybe it’s because of preconceived notions.

People in China all sympathize with Song Hye Kyo and angrily denounce Song Joong Ki.

On the other hand, on the peninsula, Song Hye Kyo is almost being criticized as a Muggle.

[Song Hye Kyo's boyfriend experience is no joke. 】

[He evaded nearly 25 billion in taxes. How can he be a good person? 】

【A perfect female version of Lee Byung-hun. 】

[Song Hye Kyo stole the rising Song Zhongji, and not long after that, he became a 'divorced man'. I'm really angry.]

[This early in the morning, it was such a shock! ]

[More shocking than the news of marriage. ]

[Song Zhongji posted first and used the word "pain". Then, everything can be explained. 】

[Song Zhongji filed a lawsuit, so it must be that Song Hye Kyo made some mistake. 】

[Yes, it must be because Song Hye Kyo stabbed me in the back, or I was particularly disappointed with her, and I only realized it now. ]

[It is said that the reason is that Song Hye Kyo cheated on Park Bo Gum. The funny thing is that Song Joong Ki and Park Bo Gum are both in Blossom Entertainment. Now, the company is divided into Song Joong Ki and Park Bo Gum. 】

[Wow, think about it, Liu Renna and Nam Joo Hyuk just transferred there and have to choose a team, how unlucky it is. ]

[Jin Qixuan is the same. He is busy making money for the company while worrying about the company falling apart. It is too hard. ]

[Speaking of these two people, the limited edition dance of "Boys' Day" suddenly came to my mind. 】

[Hahahaha, please go away from upstairs. I can't get the image out of my head! ]

……

Looking at those stupid netizens who are gradually going off topic and even hurting themselves.

The corners of Jin Qixuan's mouth twitched unconsciously.

In fact, there are specific circumstances surrounding the "Song-Song couple's divorce."

Jin Qixuan still knows a thing or two.

simply speaking.

Song Joong-ki's family attaches great importance to continuing the family line.

And hope that Song Hye Kyo will return to her family and take care of her husband and children.

Song Joong-ki may seem honest, but he is actually a very possessive male chauvinist.

However, Song Hye Kyo repeatedly refused, citing that it was the golden period of her career.

After all, actresses’ blooming period is really short.

She was already 36 when she got married.

She wasn't doing well in the film industry and had no family to rely on.

Korean entertainment is changing rapidly. If we don’t hurry up, this person will probably be forgotten in the future.

Moreover, it was Song Hye Kyo who initiated the "divorce lawsuit."

In fact, divorce is a private matter.

Then, in order to protect his own interests, Song Joong-ki took the initiative to announce the "divorce lawsuit", trying to win public sympathy and maintain his own image through high-profile statements.

To put it simply, this is just Song Joong-ki's one-sided statement.

But in a broader sense, this concerns Song Hye Kyo's reputation and her future development in the entertainment industry.

And it only took a moment.

Eye-catching revelations have begun to appear on the Internet again.

Then it was revealed that Song Hye Kyo was caught by Song Joong Ki because she was being kept by a chaebol.

A little later, it was revealed that Song Hye Kyo had a bad relationship with Song Joong Ki's parents.

It was also said that Song Hye Kyo secretly had an abortion when she became pregnant, which caused Song Joong Ki's dissatisfaction.

In short, all kinds of rumors are flying all over the Internet.

Jin Qixuan also watched with great interest.

However, just when Jin Qixuan was about to continue watching.

The phone also rang.

It was a call from his new agent urging him to go downstairs.

After all, there are differences between men and women.

If it was Sheng Bingxu, he would have just come into the room and called him.

A moment later, Jin Qixuan got into the new nanny car sent by the Audi brand.

He doesn't have much to do today.

In the morning, I went to shoot the cover photo of Vogue Korea in advance.

In the afternoon, I went to attend the script reading session of "Light and Shadow".

On the way, Jin Qixuan's cell phone kept ringing.

The first person to call was Han Dongyu, the director of When a Man Falls in Love.

Jin Qixuan thought he was informing him of the release date of the movie.

As a result, the brother said:

"Have you heard about the Song-Song couple's divorce?"

“Just had it.”

“I still can’t believe it…”

Jin Qixuan listened to him chattering silently for 3 minutes, and finally got the release date of "When a Man Falls in Love".

——September 8.

The two most important movie schedules on the peninsula are:

One is the Spring Festival period and the other is the summer vacation period.

Movies with themes like "When a Man Falls in Love" are actually more suitable for the winter season.

That is the period from November to February.

Generally, family-themed and romance-themed films are released during this period.

However, if it is released at that time, you will have to wait until next year to win an award.

obviously.

Neither director Han Dong-wook nor Warner Bros. CEO Choi Jae-won want to miss the Grand Bell and Blue Dragon Awards at the end of this year.

So, after discussion, the film was scheduled to be released on August 8th.

Avoiding the "summer season" and reaping the benefits of the "Mid-Autumn Festival season".

At the same time, it can also track the latest judging time for the Grand Bell Awards.

Anyway, no matter what period it is.

Given Jin Qixuan's current box office appeal and the quality of his films.

They believe that the box office results will definitely not be bad.

Moreover, the preference for film genres during this period is comedy > romance > campus > suspense > horror > fantasy.

Like "When a Man Falls in Love", it contains elements of comedy, romance, gangs and family.

It is quite suitable in this period.

Afterwards, Jin Qixuan had no time to inform his colleagues of the release date.

Another call came.

It’s Yoona.

Jin Qixuan didn't understand what her call meant.

But the first sentence this sister said was the same as director Han Dongyu's.

"Have you heard about the Song-Song couple's divorce?"

"..."

"Oh my god, I still can't believe it. I used to support them as a couple..."

After Jin Qixuan listened to Lin Yuner's phone call silently for another three minutes, she expressed her desire to treat Jin Qixuan to a meal.

"Nu Na, there's no need to be so hypocritical in our relationship. If you have something to say, just tell me."

Park So Dam is jealous of Lee Ji Eun, so what will happen if she has a private meal with Yoona!
Therefore, Jin Qixuan didn't even hesitate.

After hearing what Jin Qixuan said, Lin Yuna stopped beating around the bush and directly stated the purpose of the call.

"Extreme Escape" is scheduled to be released on July 7st.

This was her second film and her first starring role.

She wanted to invite Jin Qixuan to help her out at the VIP screening of the movie.

Jin Qixuan had no objection to such a small matter.

After all, she had supported Jin Qixuan many times before.

Jin Qixuan has always wanted to repay her favor.

But unfortunately, she had too few film works and had no chance.

No, the opportunity has come.

However, after agreeing.

Jin Qixuan also suggested that she come to support him at the VIP preview of the movie "When a Man Falls in Love".

To this, Yoona Lim readily agreed.

She also said that she would take Taegu with her when the time comes.

After hanging up the phone, Lee Kwang Soo called again.

He is the same as Jin Qixuan.

People close to Song Joong-ki all know the inside story of their divorce.

I also understand that what Song Joong-ki did was a bit unethical.

Therefore, he said nothing about it.

Instead, he called specifically to thank Jin Qixuan.

"Hospital Playlist" is about to start filming. If it weren't for the opportunity of "My First Brother" and Jin Qixuan's recommendation,

It is not certain that Lee Kwang-soo will ever meet a director of Shin Won-ho's level.

In response, Jin Qixuan smiled and said:

"It's nothing. When a Man Falls in Love will be released on August 8th. If Kwang Soo has time, you can come and accompany me to a few road shows."

"There is time, of course there is time."

Lee Kwang Soo also agreed readily.

After a few pleasantries, Jin Qixuan arrived at the underground garage of the "Vogue Korea" studio.

Unexpectedly, Jin Qixuan just got on the elevator.

Li Zhien called.

Seeing this, Jin Qixuan hesitated for a second and said to his agent:

"Please apologize to the photographer and editor-in-chief for delaying me for 10 minutes."

"Ok."

Then, Jin Qixuan got off the elevator, walked to the side and answered Li Zhien's call.

"Oh my god, such a big thing happened when I woke up! Did you know about Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo's divorce?"

On the other end of the phone, Lee Ji-eun sounded shocked.

"I haven't heard of it. Tell me about it."

"Well, let me tell you..."

Just like that, Jin Qixuan listened to her story with a smile on his face, and would occasionally interject to express his shock.

Ten minutes passed quickly.

Until my agent sent me a text message saying, "If you don't come, I will die."

He was also reluctant to hang up the phone on his young wife.

Fortunately, Lee Ji-eun mentioned that she was thirsty, so the topic about Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo came to an end, and she casually asked him what he was doing.

Jin Qixuan then found the opportunity and said that he was going to shoot the cover of a magazine.

"Oh, then go quickly!"

Li Zhien also stuck out her tongue embarrassedly.

"It's okay. I'm already late anyway, and I want to hear you talk more."

Hearing this, Li Zhien felt sweet in her heart and smiled:

"Why are you so sweet today?"

“What day isn’t sweet?”

"Go to work, you're so hot-mouthed. Come find me if you're free in the evening."

"it is good!"

After hanging up the phone and watching the elevator door slowly close, Jin Qixuan's mouth corners slowly rose.

When Jin Qixuan arrived at the studio.

The editor-in-chief, photographer, stylist and other staff are already waiting.

Seeing this, Jin Qixuan apologized repeatedly.

"Qixuanxi's schedule is too busy, we understand. If he's not in good condition, we can postpone the shooting time."

"No, let's get started now. I'll adjust myself as soon as possible."

Jin Qixuan also expressed his sincere gratitude to everyone for giving him a way out.

The photographer who took the photo for him is also an old acquaintance.

We have collaborated several times before.

From putting on makeup to starting shooting, it didn’t take that long.

However, the filming process was prolonged.

Because the number of pages has been increased.

Usually Jin Qixuan only shoots 12 to 18 pages.

But this time, a total of 26 pages were shot.

After all, Jin Qixuan has strong expressiveness and his photography is indeed excellent enough, and adding a few more pages can better reflect the style of the sponsoring brand.

However, the most important thing is sales.

Magazine sales are also a type of performance.

The more magazines are sold, the more it proves that the artist has many fans and strong purchasing power.

On the contrary, if magazine sales are low, it will also have an impact on the commercial value of the artist.

Jin Qixuan has been ranked first on the fashion influence list for three consecutive years.

The purchasing power of his fans is terrifying.

It is common to see sales exceeding ten thousand in a few seconds or being sold out in a few minutes.

Therefore, with the arrival of “Golden September and Silver October”.

All magazines and brands are counting on Jin Qixuan to boost their KPIs and sales.

It is not difficult to understand why we have to make an appointment with Jin Qixuan three months in advance.

After the filming was over, both sides thanked each other for their hard work.

As usual, Jin Qixuan gave red envelopes to photographers, makeup artists and others to thank them for their efforts.

Then, we took a car to the NEW company building to attend a reading session of the script of "Light and Shadow".

The candidate to replace Han Hyo Joo has been found, it's Shin Hye Sun.

Although she is a newcomer in the film industry, she still has several representative works in the TV drama circle.

She graduated from a professional school and has been nominated for over 100 Best Actress awards. She has solid acting skills and a good image.

The rest of the cast remains unchanged.

Kim Hye-soo, Yoo Hae-jin, Hwang Jung-min, and Kim Kye-hyun.

When Jin Qixuan arrives.

Huang Zhengmin was seen sitting between Kim Hye-soo and Liu Haizhen with an awkward look on his face, not saying a word.

On the contrary, Kim Hye-soo and Liu Haizhen looked very natural and even managed to say a few words.

But the more this happened, the more embarrassed Hwang Jung-min seemed.

No wonder, anyone would feel uncomfortable sitting between this former couple.

Seeing this scene, Jin Qixuan, full of mischief, did not disturb them and quietly retreated.

It's just that he has a dazzling aura and can become the focus of everyone's attention wherever he goes.

The moment I entered the door, I was noticed by Huang Zhengmin, who was always keeping an eye on everything.

He also saw a savior and immediately stopped Jin Qixuan who was about to run away:
"Hey, Qixuan! Where are you going?!"

"I, uh, I'm going to buy iced Americano for the seniors."

"Why buy iced Americano? There are so many assistants here, do you really need to buy it?"

Huang Zhengmin rolled his eyes and said unhappily.

Hearing this, Jin Qixuan scratched his head and walked in somewhat embarrassedly.

"Hello, senior."

After Jin Qixuan greeted Jin Huixiu and Liu Haizhen with this, Huang Zhengmin couldn't wait to say:

"Qixuan, you sit here, I'll sit inside."

Seeing Huang Zhengmin's anxious look, Jin Qixuan smiled and sat next to Jin Huixiu as he said.

Seeing this, Jin Huixiu also joked:
“Jungmin, you’re so afraid to sit with me and Haejin, are you afraid we’ll eat you?”

"Hahaha, how can that be possible? Sister Huixiu is as beautiful as a flower, and brother Haizhen is handsome and dashing. I can't wait to sit with you two."

Huang Zhengmin said as he sat down next to Liu Haizhen.

Hearing this, Kim Hye-soo and Kim Ki-hyun couldn't help but laugh.

Even Liu Haizhen, who was usually taciturn, smiled at this moment.

After the laughter, Lee Chang-dong walked in with Shin Hye-sun.

"Is the atmosphere heating up already?"

Looking at the four people with smiles on their faces, Lee Chang-dong also made a joke.

"Yes, Director. We just ate senior Hwang Jung Min. Would you like to have a bite?"

Jin Qixuan responded.

"I would like to eat it, but I'm afraid of indigestion!"

Li Changdong laughed, clapped his hands, and said:

"Okay, let me introduce to you all, this is the last actor confirmed, Shin Hye Sun."

Upon hearing this, Shin Hye-sun immediately bowed and greeted:

"Hello seniors, I am Shin Hye-sun, please take care of me in the future!"

"If there is anything wrong with my performance, please point it out to me, seniors."

Looking at Shin Hye-sun, who had a nervous face and a respectful attitude, several people expressed their goodwill.

Jin Huixiu even took Shen Huishan's hand, asked her to sit next to her, and said with a smile:
"Don't be nervous, we get along well."

It’s no wonder Shin Hye Sun was nervous.

Anyone who has just entered the film industry would be nervous when acting with two emperors, one empress and several best supporting actors.

Not to mention, sitting in the main seat is Lee Chang-dong, who has made several great films such as "Peppermint Candy", "Oasis" and "Secret Sunshine".

This is a lineup comparable to that of Shura Field!

Shin Hye Sun also expressed her gratitude for Kim Hye Soo's kindness.

Seeing this, Lee Chang-dong also brought the topic back to the reading session:
"The purpose of this reading session is mainly to let everyone get familiar with each other first, and let Huishan try it out with everyone. If she's not in good condition, then read it a few more times. If she's in good condition, we'll set a time to start. Now, let's get started!"

After the words were spoken, everyone opened the marked scripts in front of them.

A script reading session is a script reading session.

The screenwriter, director, actors and other main creators will participate together.

Everyone has to interpret their role with voice and emotions.

During the reading process, if anyone has questions about the plot or character settings, they can raise them in a timely manner.

After all, it is impossible for screenwriters and directors to be perfect.

They also have their moments of inconsideration.

The reading session is the process of discovering problems and then solving them.

After a while, everyone reviewed "Light and Shadow" from beginning to end.

During this period, Jin Qixuan also demonstrated his superb acting skills.

The emotions of the lines are captured just right.

It will not distract people from the show, and can also guide everyone into the emotions well.

I have to say, it's very comfortable to act with an actor of Hwang Jung-min's caliber.

Whether it is Kim Hye-soo, Liu Haizhen, or Hwang Jung-min.

By interacting with each other, you can stir up everyone's emotions.

Even the new member Shin Hye-sun performed exceptionally well and was amazing.

It can be seen that a good actor can lead other actors into the play.

Take Shin Hye Sun for example, she is actually capable.

It was just that I was a little nervous because I was sitting among a group of bigwigs, and it was my first time attending a film script reading session.

But once she gets into the role, she is able to complete her task well.

Six pm.

The script reading that lasted for 5 hours ended.

Jin Qixuan hosted and invited everyone to have a meal together.

To quickly bring each other closer.

After all, they will be working together for several months.

If the relationship between us is too bad, how can we work together?
Therefore, this startup meal is inevitable.

Since it's a private gathering, there's no need to go to a high-end restaurant.

Just find a house with a nice environment.

During this period, Kim Ki-hyeon also sent a message to Lee Ji-eun.

I reported my situation and expected end time.
