Peninsula Platinum Era

Chapter 247 The Fear of a Soft Girl

"That Nakamura Ichiyo is really fast; he's already won over his family."

Just as the man was about to return home, he received a reply from the girl saying that everything was okay and that she would return to the Netherlands to complete the withdrawal procedures.

"It feels like when I first became an actor. It must have taken me a long time to make up my mind, and I also needed my family's support."

The older sister was also thinking about that Japanese girl. She didn't expect her to take the initiative to message Chen Shijun. She's really bold. Maybe she thought it wouldn't hurt to get to know him better.

These young girls nowadays are all incredibly precocious, as you can see from Zhang Yuanying, and Chen Shijun is also attracting too much attention from young women.

Eun-chae thought about it more and more and it made more sense. Although this guy seemed to have a lot of authority and tolerance on the surface, and was the kind of partner who had already built up a foundation.

"Being an idol is not easy. I hope she can persevere. Representative Su said that Source Music will give her some help. I didn't expect her to be so highly regarded."

This is what royalty is all about. But it seems reasonable to make some promises to someone who has to give up their studies to switch to Source Music.

"He really is a promising prospect, isn't he? Don't you think he's a good candidate? I think he's your type, tall and strong with a great physique."

The trip is coming to an end soon, and the older sister is quite reluctant to leave, but there's no way around it, everyone has to go back to their normal lives eventually.

"Don't slander me! I'm just admiring her. She is indeed a very beautiful girl, with the air of a young lady from a Japanese anime."

Her youthful and beautiful appearance was indeed very pleasing, but after a brief interaction, it seemed that this girl was not as quiet as I had imagined; on the contrary, she was a bit silly.

Perhaps it's because she's young; maybe she'll develop a composed and mature personality later on. But Chen Shijun also likes this genuine happiness and the romantic anticipation for the future.

Perhaps this is his precious youth that is gradually fading away. Chen Shijun thinks that this is probably the reason why he likes young girls.

That girl is actually quite clever. She used this as an excuse to keep in touch with me, and this behavior will definitely not harm her future development.

"Director Chen! I have communicated with the school, and my parents fully support my decision. I will definitely work even harder."

The girl's new message was followed by a cute bowing emoji and a clenched fist cheering emoji. Chen Shijun could almost see the tall and elegant girl through the screen, a young life full of energy and aspirations.

“Very good. Source Music will arrange your follow-up matters very soon. Just wait patiently.”

"Director, once I arrive in South Korea, if there's anything I need to be aware of, or anything I need to learn or understand in advance, may I ask you for advice?"

Chen Shijun is definitely a smart man. This sentence is a cautious probe, and it is obviously not as simple as asking for advice. It is a subtle way of getting closer.

In the complex entertainment industry, this girl has stumbled in headfirst, with no one to teach her. In such a situation, finding a strong support and a guiding light is definitely one of the smartest survival strategies.

This Nakamura Ichiyo seems to be more cunning than she appears, but she's not unlikeable, probably because she's young and beautiful.

"Sure, if you have any problems that you can't solve, you can contact my secretary."

He gave a response that wasn't particularly intimate, but still left room for maneuver. He had to maintain a superior's distance while also offering her some positive feedback. Putting down his phone, he leaned back in his soft chair and closed his eyes to rest. Nakamura Ichiyo—an interesting and astute young woman—he hoped to achieve some success in this industry.

Meanwhile, in Amsterdam, Netherlands, Nakamura Ichiyo held her phone, looking at the last message, and happily waving her two strong, long legs on the bed.

It is clear that giving up one's studies to become a trainee in South Korea is a gamble, though not a huge risk, and it is still a risky move, even though Source Music's CEO, Su, did make some good promises.

However, the situation I will actually face is much more complicated. It is a completely unfamiliar field for me, and unexpected things may happen.

For example, the exclusion of local members among the trainees, whether they can digest the concept of pop dance, and a series of unexpected developments that will be faced if they cannot meet Source Music's expectations.

This Director Chen Shijun seems to have a lot of influence, and unlike those pot-bellied, serious, and rigid senior executives, he is not very old, so he is relatively easier to communicate with.

Although this little scheme may seem a bit mercenary, there's nothing shameful about it. When you're traveling alone to a foreign country to pursue your dreams, having a strong voice to speak up for you when needed can help you avoid unnecessary troubles.

Moreover, to be fair, Chen Shijun is indeed quite handsome, and this kind of hazy affection a young girl has for a powerful man is not dirty.

……

Just as Chen Shijun was embarking on his return journey, Minju was also officially notified that she would be participating in MBC's script study group. Although she had always claimed to have an acting dream, she was still very nervous when the day was about to come.

In particular, Secretary Lee had instructed him that this was a trip to break the ice with MBC, and he must not mess things up.

Back then, because BTS failed to attend MBC's Gayo Daejejeon at the end of the year, Big Hit and MBC completely broke off relations, and for the next few years, all Big Hit artists stopped appearing on MBC programs.

As HYBE has begun to rampage through the industry, constantly expanding its influence, its power is no longer what it used to be. Therefore, both sides have released some signals in the hope of repairing this relationship.

MBC acknowledged the errors of outdated production practices and pledged a sustainable production environment, refraining from demanding participation in shows and award ceremonies or unilaterally requesting changes to production schedules.

The reason Chen Shijun was in such a hurry to return was to sign a memorandum of understanding with MBC at the Yongsan HYBE office building, after which the two sides would begin comprehensive cooperation.

Against this backdrop, with Chen Shijun's encouragement, the role of the second female lead in a TV series was readily offered, so Minju got a pretty good opportunity thanks to her incredible luck.

Wiping the sweat from her brow, Minju had just finished stretching on the yoga mat. The girl's body was very flexible, and her gentle nature was not only reflected in her personality.

Since taking on this role, I have been trying to hone my acting skills using various methods, but with little success.

She didn't know if the crew would look down on her because of her connections, but she could only do her best no matter what. Secretary Li also told her to remember Chen Shijun's kindness, which made the girl wonder if it was an implication.

Minju was actually quite grateful to Chen Shijun for keeping his gentleman's agreement and fulfilling it so quickly, after all, he had indeed realized his dream of becoming an actor.

Even so, my fear of Chen Shijun only grew stronger, and sometimes I really didn't know what to do.

The girl's thoughts were strange. When the other party didn't keep his promise, she was afraid that he would go back on his word. But when he did keep his promise, she was worried that he might be trying to take advantage of her kindness.
