Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 510 My sister is here!

"So, it's time to calm down for a while?"

Sana Minato looked at Miyeon Cho, carefully observing the expression on her face, while simultaneously pondering what she had just said.

Take some time to think things through calmly?
Sana Minato pursed her lips, feeling that this was not a very wise choice.

Her knuckles unconsciously rubbed the rim of the coffee cup, the overhead light unable to illuminate the shadow cast by her eyelashes as she lowered her gaze.

"Meiyan," she called out Zhao Meiyan's name again, as if it were a bad omen.

"So, do you think it's a good idea to use this time to think about it?"

Zhao Meiyan looked up blankly, meeting the eyes of Minatozaki Sana that always held a sweet smile, but now held a questioning look and a slight caution.

She didn't really agree with Zhao Meiyan's decision. If she wanted to maintain the relationship, she only hoped to use this time to sort herself out before continuing the relationship with him.

Father, like son.

Let's not even talk about what trouble Kwon Heon-hyuk and Cho Mi-yeon had with other women during their relationship.

Right now, right now, are there other women around Kwon Seonhyuk?

Even if we take a step back and say that it wasn't for various constraints, she might have even fallen for Quan Xuanhe.

If it weren't for the numerous entanglements with those around him, and if Sana Minatozaki didn't know any of his ex-girlfriends and had no connection with them...

She will definitely take the initiative and try every means to win this man over, keep him by her side, and enjoy him at her leisure.

But in reality, because the people he's dating are all familiar faces, it's already very difficult for him to make a move.

Otherwise, with such high-quality resources, Sana Minatozaki would definitely be the first to make a move.

Moreover, she has full and complete confidence in herself and in her ability to keep Kwon Hyun-hyuk by her side.

Who is she?
Sana Minatozaki is the ideal type for countless men in South Korea, has created countless memorable moments, and can make men lose their bearings.

She has full confidence in her charm, a confidence that comes from the depths of her heart.

Based on rational thinking, Quan Xuanhe would never lack Zhao Meiyan, and now he's in a relationship crisis, and now he's going through a cooling-off period.
Won't it just cause the feelings to completely cool down?

Sana Minatozaki thought to herself, but on the surface, she couldn't say it directly. She could only offer a subtle reminder. Being too direct or too subtle was not a very appropriate approach.

Zhao Meiyan's expression was somewhat somber, as if she was recalling every little thing she had with Quan Xuanhe. "I just felt that we couldn't ignore all the problems at once and make a decision without sufficient consideration."

"That makes it easy to be misled by very short sentences."

Zhao Meiyan hadn't thought that way. After being reminded, she immediately realized something, her face turned pale, and her eyes showed a hint of panic.

However, even though she vaguely realized something, she did not change her mind and remained steadfast in her belief.

"Is that so?"

Sana Minato's voice gradually softened, and her gaze swept carefully across her face again. Seeing her flustered yet quickly resolute expression, she probably knew something.

"Alright, then I won't say any more."

She shook her head, putting those things out of her mind, no longer thinking about the messy things between her and Quan Xuanhe. She let out a long sigh of relief, and her face once again showed a warm, sunny smile.

That's enough. Saying any more wouldn't be good. Zhao Meiyan had already made up her mind, and there was no point in saying anything more.

Let's just hope the story unfolds in a better way later on.

Sana Minato couldn't help but picture Kwon Hyun-hyuk's face in her mind again.

Is this guy really able to calm down during the cooling-off period?
She thought about it and realized that although Quan Xuanhe hadn't handled some things well, he seemed to treat his official girlfriend with great care and attention.

This feeling is like dealing with a legal wife and a concubine. No matter how much trouble the concubine causes, as long as the legal wife is around, the concubine can never turn the tables.

Unless the legal wife herself leaves.

Unable to figure it out, Sana Minatozaki's mind raced, but in the end, she simply smiled at Miyeon Cho in front of her.

"Cooling-off period, huh? I don't know what you mean by cooling-off period. I should have just broken up with him."

"I'm speechless. I don't know why Mi-yeon unnie hasn't chosen to break up with him, even though he's clearly not a good person."

Yeh Shu-hua spoke casually on the phone, casually telling Chou Tzu-yu the news without a care in the world.

"Cooling-off period?"

"Yes, I don't know what happened. They said they would take some time to calm down and think things through, but they didn't say whether it was a breakup or a reconciliation."

From Ye Shuhua's perspective, it's quite unpleasant that Zhao Meiyan deliberately kept her relationship with Quan Xuanhe a secret. It shows that she didn't consider her a trusted friend and felt that telling her was risky.

Since that's the case, she has nothing to worry about. Between Zhao Meiyan and Zhou Ziyu, she will choose Zhou Ziyu.

"That's it."

"Yeah, I'm telling you, don't give him a nice look, and don't do anything secretly anymore, okay?"

Yeh Shu-hua, on the contrary, started giving Chou Tzu-yu pointers again, speaking quite bluntly, leaving Chou Tzu-yu unsure of what to say.

"Just find a new boyfriend, why keep fixating on him? There are so many people pursuing you, why hang yourself on one tree?"

These words made Chou Tzu-yu laugh awkwardly. She didn't say anything in rebuttal, nor did she say anything in agreement.

A decision you've made won't just vanish because of a few words.

"This is truly speechless."

When Yeh Shu-hua saw that Chou Tzu-yu wasn't saying anything, she picked up her phone to check if the signal was bad or if the call had been disconnected. She realized that it was just Chou Tzu-yu who wasn't talking, and immediately understood what was going on.

Upon hearing this, Chou Tzu-yu spoke softly, "Don't worry about me, I know what to do." Her tone was gentle but firm.

"Whatever, do whatever you want, just don't come crying to me when the time comes."

Yeh Shu-hua didn't hold back when she spoke, and her words were quite harsh, but Chou Tzu-yu blinked and was somewhat taken aback.

"No way, how could that possibly happen?"

At this moment, her words sounded dry and lifeless. Even Zhou Ziyu herself felt that what she said was a little weak, let alone Ye Shuhua on the other end of the phone, who snorted disdainfully and didn't say anything more to her.

Cooling-off period.
As these words came to mind, Chou Tzu-yu's eyes flickered faintly under the dim or bright lights, her thoughts swirling within her.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk staggered off the ship, taking a few steps before regaining his footing. He looked up at the staff present, then turned and sat down to rest.

After Han Ji-min jumped off the boat, he saw him sitting there resting. He raised his eyebrows at him and gave him a bright smile: "What's wrong, seasick?"

"No."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk took a sip of water, suppressing the churning in his throat, and looked up at Han Ji-min, who showed no sign of distress.

"Nuna seems perfectly fine, like she's walking on flat ground." Kwon Hyun-hyuk gave her a thumbs up.

"That's because I've been diving a lot. But what do you mean by that word?"

Han Ji-min expressed her doubts.

The role she played was that of a female diver, which required her to wear a diving suit and go underwater. At first, she felt nauseous several times when she went down, but she gradually got used to it and persevered.

"Like walking on flat ground."

"Is it an idiom? I've never heard of it before."

Chinese idioms.

"Oh, I forgot you went to school in China."

Suddenly realizing what was happening, Han Ji-min smiled and nodded, his eyes sparkling with admiration.

Just as she was about to say something more, she saw Park Jung-jung walking briskly through the crowd from outside the film set towards her.

"It looks like your uncle needs to see you urgently."

Han Ji-min gestured for him to look up and pointed.

Kwon Hyun-hyuk looked up and saw Park Jung-jung walking up to him.

"Ji-min, I need to talk to Hyun-hyuk for a little while."

Park Jung-jung hurried over, apologetic smile on his face as he looked at Han Ji-min, then looked down at Kwon Heon-hyuk.

"It's okay, we've finished filming anyway."

Han Ji-min casually shook his head.

Seeing this, Park Jung-jung called Kwon Seon-hyuk to the RV, where they sat down for a chat, and he even produced a stack of documents in his hand.

"There's news about the project. Look, it's '20th Century Girl'."

"You can contact the director now. Didn't you say you weren't very satisfied with the script? Now, start communicating your ideas with the director."

The project "20th Century Girl" is a done deal, with BH Entertainment handling everything from the inside out. The second male lead is Park Jung-woo, a newly signed actor from BH Entertainment, and the second female lead is also a newly signed actress from BH Entertainment, Noh Yeon. In addition, Kwon Heon-hyuk is the male lead. Three out of the four main actors are from BH Entertainment.

If it weren't for the fact that there weren't any outstanding young actresses in the "BH" category, the female lead would probably also be a "BH".

The lead role in this movie ultimately went to Kim Yoo-jung, born in 1999. She's considered a child star and has grown up without faltering, making her a very promising young actress.

She has a pure and lovely appearance, and her looks haven't deteriorated.

In the past two years, he has had two popular works, "Convenience Store Rookie" and "Red Sky Secret". After these two works, he began to try his hand at movies.

Although she debuted early, to be honest, the reason Kim Yoo-jung is able to act alongside Kwon Seon-hyuk in a movie is actually because she's benefiting from his fame.

Everyone knows that Kwon Heonhyuk's next project is a highly anticipated hit and one of the most closely watched developments in the industry. He was able to land this role thanks to a suitable project and the absence of any strong competitors from other actresses vying for the project.

The title of "leading lady" for Kwon Heon-hyuk is enough to make her highly sought after.

"The plot needs to be changed at the end. It's too classic a car accident. It can be a bad ending, but it can't be a bad ending like this that lacks originality."

"The male lead's role also needs to be strengthened; his screen time and lines need to be increased."

Since Kwon Heonhyuk has joined this project, he will definitely make some targeted modifications. Although the movie originally received a mediocre rating among romance films after its release, the external feedback was actually quite good, and it made quite a splash in the Korean Wave circle, but it was not enough for him.

Park Jung-jung nodded, noted them down one by one, and then continued, "The salary for this project was negotiated and finally settled at 200 million."

Two hundred million is a significant amount, more than double the one hundred million salary paid to the actor in "Squid Game".

Although the converted salary is only about one million, it should be considered that the South Korean film market itself is not very large. For him, the salary is more like a level, a number symbolizing his status.

Having overcome the initial hurdle of 100 million, the next hurdle is 200 million.

Actors like Lee Min-ho, Kim Soo-hyun, Song Joong-ki, Lee Jong-suk, and Ji Chang-wook have reached the 300 million mark, and with the influx of capital and the widening gap between the rich and poor, their salaries continue to rise.

Quan Xuanhe rose rapidly, but compared to those with multiple successful projects as a foundation, he still lacks some experience and needs time to accumulate experience.

This number already represents an inflated level of significance. Before the pandemic, even top-tier celebrities only dared to ask for a film fee of 100 million or more. The 300 to 500 million or even more after the pandemic was unimaginable.

Two hundred million is nothing to him when it comes to making money from endorsements, but who would complain about having too much money?

"What about the other project?"

For Kwon Heonhyuk, "20th Century Girl" was more about maintaining and solidifying his popularity among the Korean Wave and young people, while "Night Owl" was the real project aimed at achieving tangible results, winning awards, and elevating his status.

"in addition."

"This is a project produced by CJes. Actually, they wanted Ryu Jun-yeol, who is under their company, to star in this project. It was a bit of a ploy to get him to compete for awards, since he has been overshadowed by Yoo Ah-in and has had almost no chance to stand out."

"but."

"The president took the initiative to approach their company to negotiate, hoping to directly buy the project and hand it over to our company for production."

"Because you have expressed strong ideas, Sun Xiyu wanted to make this work a custom script for you, tailor-made for you, and aim for an award."

Perhaps it was because Kwon Hyun-hyuk had expressed his strong interest in the project, or perhaps it was because the contract was about to expire, but in order to show his respect for Kwon Hyun-hyuk, the company's boss, Son Seok-woo, personally took action on the "Night Owl" project.

Although this movie is not well-known to most people, it is actually one of the few high-quality male lead scripts produced in South Korea in recent years, winning both awards and profits.

There are no more suitable options left. If we miss this project, who knows how many more years we'll have to wait.

"So how's the progress? Are we able to secure it?"

"We're in talks, and there seems to be hope, but I haven't told them that you wanted to take the role, otherwise it might have fallen through."

Park Jung-jung nodded in affirmation, then smiled and said...

Kwon Hyun-hyuk's undefeated record has alerted the entire industry; any script he's interested in will soon be targeted by others.

If he can steal other people's notebooks, then other people can steal his notebooks too. It's a fair thing; it all comes down to who has the bigger fist.

"hope so."

Kwon Hyun-hyuk is well aware of how bleak the Korean film industry is now, and how it will be in the next few years. Apart from a handful of successful works, there is only lamentation below the top of the pyramid.

The two were discussing the details when there was a knock on the door of the RV, accompanied by a reminder from the assistant.

"Senior Hyoju has arrived."

Han Hyo-joo is here?
Upon hearing this, Quan Xuanhe looked toward the door.

Sure enough, the gentle older sister appeared in front of him again.
