Peninsula: The Great Producer

In fact, it’s not just Liu Inna who has this illusion.

Even the staff of MAX Production Company and Goo Hara, Park Ji-yeon, Choi Sulli and their management team who recorded "Bounce Earth Game Hall" together had this illusion.

I don’t know when it started, but whenever there is a dinner party, whenever Ji Yaojiu and Lee Ji-eun are present at the same time, Lee Ji-eun always sits next to Ji Yaojiu, and Lee Ji-eun always takes care of Ji Yaojiu while he drinks.

Take back your thoughts.

Liu Renna witnessed the next scene again.

Qi Yaojiu wrapped the meat in the dumplings but didn't eat them himself. Instead, he held it in the air and said to Li Zhien, "Try it first."

While saying, "Oppa, did you put something weird in the meat bun?", IU leaned over and ate the meat bun that Ji Yojiu handed to her.

After chewing for a while, Li Zhien said in a puzzled tone: "It doesn't taste strange?"

Qi Yaojiu picked up a piece of meat, dipped it in some sauce and put it in his mouth while saying, "I'm not Shirley and the others. I never joke about food."

Li Zhien had already wrapped the meat and held it in the air and replied, "So what about the last time Oppa tricked me into eating chili peppers?"

Qi Yaojiu also ate the meat that Li Zhien had wrapped naturally, hesitating: "It was you who said you wanted to challenge the spicy snail noodles."

Thinking of snail rice noodle, Li Zhien turned to look at Liu Renna and said: "Ouni, do you know snail rice noodle? It smells stinky, but it tastes very fragrant and delicious."

Liu Renna nodded instinctively and said, "You told me that you gave me two bags of snail noodles when you came back from Guilin last time, didn't you?"

Li Zhien said with a smile: "I forgot, have you eaten it, unnie? Isn't it delicious?"

Liu Inna kept smiling.

She didn't know how to answer Lee Ji-eun's question.

She had eaten it the day after IU gave her the screw noodles. That night, Liu Inna was eating while talking to IU on the phone, and she told IU about her feelings and comments on the phone.

So, has Lee Ji-eun really forgotten everything?

Or when she was with Qi Yaojiu, there was only Qi Yaojiu in her eyes and heart, and no one else or anything else.

What should I do?

I really didn’t know that Lee Ji-eun and Ki Yo-gu had such a good understanding with each other before.

Liu Renna regretted it so much that she even wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

Because before on the phone, Liu Inna had told Li Zhien frankly that Ji Yaojiu was like the sun she had been waiting for in her life, because Ji Yaojiu's appearance illuminated the darkness that had been enveloping her and dispelled the haze.

Could it be that Lee Ji-eun has said these words to Ki Yo-gu?

Embarrassed Liu Inna lowered her head subconsciously.

Li Zhien made another meat bun and handed it to Liu Renna, saying, "Ouni, try it."

Liu Inna slowly raised her head, took the steamed bun handed to her by Lee Ji-eun with her hand, turned half sideways, covered her mouth with her left hand, and stuffed the steamed bun into her mouth with her right hand.

Li Zhien immediately asked: "Is it delicious?"

Liu Inna nodded several times.

Noticing the empty bowl in front of Liu Renna, Li Zhien patted her head lightly and said, "Why didn't you pour rice wine for unnie?"

As she spoke, Lee Ji-eun picked up the rice wine and gulped down half a cup for Liu Inna.

Liu Renna glanced at Qi Yaojiu and explained: "Actually, I don't usually drink."

Li Zhien said: "Don't you like drinking?"

Qi Yaojiu raised his glass and said, "We've had this four times."

Liu Inna raised her glass awkwardly and tried to recall.

Li Zhien helped recall: "The first time was the dinner after the script study session, the second time was the Korean beef we ate together on the night when I finished filming, the third time was the dinner after the TV series finale, and the fourth time was today, yes, the fourth time."

Qi Yaojiu continued, "There's nothing wrong with liking to drink. Ji Eun thinks about drinking all day long. If I hadn't been controlling her, she would have secretly learned to drink a long time ago."

Li Zhien pouted and said, "Oppa, you don't know that many high school students drink alcohol nowadays."

Qi Yaojiu smiled and said, "I know, but you can't." "Yes, yes, I can't. There are still two years left, only a little over a year left."

Liu Renna was a little confused and asked Li Zhien in a low voice: "What do you mean more than a year?"

Li Zhien explained: "On January 19st of the year I turned 1, I was no longer a teenager but an adult. Adults can buy alcohol."

Qi Yaojiu was leisurely eating the leek pancake.

The taste is just so-so, a bit bland.

It would be much better if it contained soy sauce, but the aroma of the chive pancake itself would be lost.

A bite of chive pancake and a sip of rice wine.

As soon as she finished drinking, Lee Ji-eun placed the bottle of wine she was holding on the spot where Ki-young's empty bowl was.

Gurgling.

After the automatic refill ended, IU took the bottle and placed it in front of herself.

He didn't chat with Ki Yo-gu, but was whispering to Yoo In-na.

Liu Inna was surprised that Li Zhien could do two things at the same time. How did she do it? She was clearly whispering to her but she saw that Qi Yao had finished all the rice wine in his nine bowls.

Li Zhien's voice was still echoing in my ears.

"Unnie, tell me everything you want to know, worry about, or are curious about."

Cheering up, Liu Inna remembered the purpose of asking Lee Ji-eun to ask Ji Yo-gu to come out for a meeting tonight.

When they really met, Liu Inna was still a little afraid to speak.

IU had a premonition of this and took the initiative to throw out some ideas: "Oppa, Inna has never been on a variety show before. Besides, unlike me, she is an actress. Will being on a variety show ruin her image?"

Liu Inna put her hand under the table and pulled Li Zhien a few times.

She only expressed such concerns to Lee Ji-eun. How could she say this to the program producer? What if she missed the opportunity to appear on the variety show to increase her popularity and regret it later?

Qi Yaojiu was very calm after hearing this.

Liu Inna is not the only one who has such concerns, in fact most actors have them.

It’s not clear whether it’s because of the contempt chain in the entertainment industry, but many movie actors may not even have appeared on variety shows, and they may have never acted in a TV series in their acting career.

Image is indeed very important for an actor.

Maintaining a certain sense of mystery or freshness is what most actors do.

But it's not a problem for Qi Yaojiu.

To put it simply, if an actor wants to get a good script and a good role, in addition to his own acting skills, popularity and recognition are also indispensable.

To put it simply, when Ki Yo-gu was planning the female lead for "My Love from the Star", he never considered Yoo In-na.

why.

Putting aside her acting skills, the most straightforward reason is that Liu Inna does not have the recognition and popularity of Jun Ji-hyun.

Qi Yaojiu not only wants a work with good reputation and high ratings, but also wants the copyright of this work to be able to make money. Investors and producers never do charity.

Whether it is Liu Inna or Li Zhien, if they want to stand out in Country H, they must let go of themselves, take a step forward, and do things they have never thought of before.

Qi Yaojiu can't guarantee anything else, but as for popularity and recognition, anyone who follows him will have it.

This is true for Lee Ji-eun and will be true for Liu Inna too.

What's more, Liu Inna has another advantage, she has a good friend, Lee Ji-eun.

As long as it's not excessive, Liu Inna will consider anything she asks Ji Yojiu through Lee Ji-eun.

After taking a bite of pork belly, Ki Yo-gu slowly spoke, "The characters on variety shows aren't all based on comedians. This new show has someone responsible for the comedy. Ji-eun will still be responsible for being smart, Ji-yeon will be responsible for being cute, and Yoo In-na will be responsible for being pretty."

"What? Beautiful? Me?" (End of this chapter)
