Chapter 1233 This time

"That Netflix original show..."

Hearing Bae Suzy's words, Chi Jingyuan immediately had an impression in his mind. He recalled it and said tentatively: "I remember, the name of the drama seemed to be... "My Only Love Song", right?"

Just a few months ago, when Chi Jingyuan finished filming "Goblin" and was at the peak of his popularity and fame, Netflix encountered a big setback in expanding the Peninsula market and wanted to find a breakthrough in the field of TV dramas, so it wanted to invest in its own self-produced drama and approached him to invite him to play the leading actor in the drama.

But after reading the script, Chi Jingyuan felt it was mediocre, and the attitude of the person in charge who contacted him was very offensive, so the cooperation was not reached, and there seemed to be some unpleasantness in the end.

...After that, Chi Jingyuan didn't take this matter to heart, but he was a little impressed by the arrogance and unprofessionalism of the person in charge. However, he had forgotten her name, and only remembered that she was a middle-aged woman.

After a long time, unexpectedly, Bae Suzy suddenly brought up this matter.

“Yes, this is it.”

Bae Suzy nodded and explained: "This drama was aired in June and was already aired last month...but the performance was not very good, and it can even be said to be a complete flop."

A complete failure? That's too much. Do you still want to steal the adjectives of your predecessors?

Which one is worse than "The King Loves"?

Several thoughts flashed through his mind that made him laugh. Chi Jingyuan suppressed his laughter and asked curiously, "It was broadcast in June? How come I have never heard of it?"

"Didn't you guys go to the Neon event in June? It's not normal that you haven't heard about it."

Bae Suzy supported her head with the back of her hand and looked at Ji Jingyuan sideways: "But the main reason is that this drama basically didn't make any splashes. Apart from the publicity before it was broadcast, there was almost no topic at all afterwards... If I hadn't paid special attention to it, I probably wouldn't have known about it."

As she spoke, the woman seemed to remember something and stuck out her tongue with a gloating look. "It's totally unpopular, but I heard that this drama was 100% pre-produced and aired only after it was filmed. So there was no chance for any revisions. It was aired silently and ended silently."

"so?"

Chi Jingyuan was a little bit delighted when he heard this, and he was not surprised. He shrugged his shoulders with a pout: "That's really miserable."

It would have been fine if Bae Suzy didn't say anything, but as soon as she mentioned it, Chi Jingyuan remembered the disgusting face of the person in charge at that time. Hearing that the results were not good actually made him in a good mood.

And subconsciously, you will naturally hope that the books they reject will have bad grades, to prove that they were not wrong... or that they cannot live without you.

"Netflix approached us to play the male and female lead roles at that time."

Pei Xiuzhi said with some relief: "Thank goodness I didn't agree, otherwise what would I do with this kind of result that has not made any splashes now?"

"You can't say that..."

Chi Jingyuan looked at his phone and pursed his lips: "If it were us who were to act, there would be no way there would be no splashes at all... Even if we scold, we have to scold to get some heat."

"You are quite confident."

Bae Suzy liked to see Ji Jingyuan's confident expression. She twisted her butt and moved forward a little, so that the tip of her nose was only a few centimeters away from Ji Jingyuan's shoulder.

"So you refused the cooperation at that time because you didn't think the script was good?" She blinked her eyes, and the breath she breathed hit her skin, making Chi Jingyuan feel a little itchy.

"The script is not good, it can be modified or changed... Actually, I have discussed it with Brother Jae-hyun and I feel that although Netflix is ​​not developing well now, it has good prospects and strong strength, so we are willing to cooperate."

Chi Jingyuan recalled what happened at that time, and a hint of sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The main reason is that the female person in charge is quite annoying. She has a completely Internet mindset and doesn't understand the film and television industry at all. Not only is she very unprofessional, but her attitude is also very arrogant. It feels like 'I came to you to offer a high price just to give you face'... I guess she didn't do any homework before coming to me. She just looked at a report proposal and held a meeting and came over."

"I remember that after I rejected her, she seemed to have said something harsh to me...but I forgot what she said."

Chi Jingyuan couldn't help laughing when he said this, and he looked at Bae Suzy, shrugged lightly and concluded: "The script can be bad, after all, there are many ways to make up for it... but people must not be stupid."

So, The King in Love...

"Haha~ Are you still saying harsh words? Why didn't you teach her a lesson then?"

"No need, I have a good temper."

"Hey, so why did you spank me just now?"

Pei Xiuzhi's tone naturally rippled slightly, and her thighs rubbed lightly, teasing, while continuing: "However, when this drama was halfway through the broadcast and was doomed to fail, Netflix contacted me again and wanted to invite me to cooperate and star in the next self-made drama... But I directly refused."

"Contact you again?"

Chi Jingyuan, who had originally not cared, was stunned when he heard the words and looked at her with some surprise.

"Well, probably early July."

Pei Xiuzhi nodded and laughed as she spoke:

"I wasn't planning to act in a TV series recently, and they were really unprofessional. I even asked them to take a look at the script, but guess what they said? They even said that the script was still being prepared and hadn't been finalized yet, and that they wanted to sign the cooperation agreement first... It's ridiculous. What do you call that? In your words, it's desperate and desperate."

"It is true that he may want to make amends after a big failure..." Chi Jingyuan frowned: "But why did he contact you... and not me?"

Are you more famous than me? If you want to save your relationship, why don't you go to me and find you?

Although he might not agree if asked, Netflix's behavior made Chi Jingyuan feel a little embarrassed.

"It's probably because I rejected them too straightforwardly. They probably thought that they couldn't even handle me, let alone you. After all, Jingyuan Oppa is the TV King, a big star."

Pei Xiuzhi could tell at a glance that Chi Jingyuan was unhappy. She curved her eyes, came over and started to flatter him with a smile. Seeing Chi Jingyuan's admiring look, she felt a lot more comfortable in an instant... if his voice wasn't a little too hoarse.

After calming Ji Jingyuan down, Bae Suzy became serious again: "But I heard from Xiangyu Oppa that maybe after inviting me or several other actors and being rejected, the management of Netflix's film and television department may face internal review or even transfer because the performance was too poor and the first self-made drama that they invested a lot of hope in was doomed to fail, so they didn't try to find you."

"Well, maybe."

This idea is very possible. Chi Jingyuan nodded slowly when he heard it.

As they were talking, Chi Jingyuan's phone suddenly vibrated. He glanced at the caller and picked up the call without saying anything to Pei Xiuzhi.

"What's wrong, brother?"

Bae Suzy also tacitly quieted down, but moved closer and listened quietly... It sounded like he was not a very familiar person, because Chi Jingyuan's tone was somewhat superficially polite.

After a few minutes, she saw Chi Jingyuan hang up the phone, and she asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"Lee Byung-hun."

"Ah? What did he want from you?"

"Want to treat me to a meal."

Chi Jingyuan continued to look at his phone and explained nonchalantly, "We met at an event a long time ago. We're not very familiar with each other, but we have some contact. This guy looks serious but he is very enthusiastic towards me... Some time ago, he seemed to have encountered some problems in his personal business and wanted to find a connection. He wanted to hook up with a powerful person with a background in that area. I don't know how he knew that I knew him well, so he asked me to introduce him to him and help him make a connection."

"call……"

As he was talking, he yawned, "Since we've known each other for such a long time and have been chatting well, I introduced him to him. But I didn't care about it afterwards, but I think the communication is pretty good. Lee Byung-hun has obviously become more enthusiastic. Last time he came back, he treated me to a meal to thank me. Recently, he often calls me to ask me to go out and play."

Bae Suzy nodded in understanding, and she understood Lee Byung-hun's enthusiasm, but after listening to it, she couldn't help but sigh: "Tsk tsk, even if an artist has reached Lee Byung-hun's level, he still has to flatter our Jingyuan Oppa?"

"Now I give you a chance, will you take the photo?"

"I don't flatter anyone~" Bae Suzy snorted, but the next second her eyebrows relaxed and she became charming: "I'll just flatter you~"

He raised his white fingers and slapped Chi Jingyuan.

Unfortunately, he was caught in mid-air the next second.

Bae Suzy, who took the initiative to tease, was immediately turned into the host. She giggled and turned over and was pressed down.

…………

After staying in Seoul for one night, Chi Jingyuan did not stay long. He flew back to Tokyo the next day after finishing some personal work. His presence was needed there all the time, and his agent was urging him to come back the day after he came back.

It’s a pity that Red Velvet’s performance has exploded recently and they have a lot of schedules. Bae Joo-hyun is so busy that Ji Kyung-won doesn’t even have a chance to be a stand-in.

Chi Jingyuan worked hard to keep up his schedule to consolidate his popularity in Japan. Time passed quickly and in the blink of an eye it was August 8th.

Girls' Generation's tenth anniversary is approaching, the fan meeting is about to begin, and the new album is about to be released.

"..."

Sitting on the bus, Li Yongshun looked at the images and figures appearing on the screen in front of the audio-visual store outside. His eyes fixed on them, and he was involuntarily attracted and turned sideways to look back.

But the car had gone far away and could no longer be seen.

Although it was just a quick, casual glance, he instantly recognized what the scene was.

——It was a preview of Girls’ Generation’s 10th anniversary album. If he was not mistaken, the figure he glimpsed at that time should be Yoona.

...The preview of Lin Yuner's hair-tied look has a very elegant and mature style, which left a deep impression on him.

SM has recently done a lot of advertising and promotion for Girls' Generation's upcoming comeback, and it can be often seen online, offline, and even on TV shows, not to mention people like him who pay special attention to it intentionally or unintentionally.

Thinking about the various news about Girls' Generation recently, Li Yongshun, who turned around and sat on the bus, felt a little complicated.

He was a sone before, long before the song "OH!", and he was a very loyal fan, a main group fan, and preferred Yoona.

I was a fanatical fan of Girls' Generation at that time. I would work hard for them even when I was in school. Although I am still not as enthusiastic as those fanatical female fans, I have never lacked the support and cheering. I am the most dedicated and loyal fan.

He thought this madness and love would last forever...

But 2014 was a bolt from the blue for all the sones. That year, the love affairs of various members were exposed, which hit him unexpectedly and heartbroken. After witnessing the transformation of Girls' Generation from the era of love, the previous fanatical feeling instantly turned into bitterness, irritability and heartache.

Especially the exposure of Lim Yoona and Lee Seung Gi was a despairing blow to him... When he thought about the intimate interaction between Lim Yoona and Lee Seung Gi in "Strong Heart" that he had seen before and happily clicked a "like" and thought it was very interesting, he was even more furious, feeling humiliated and angry as if he had been completely betrayed.

Lin Yoona showed her affection on the show, betrayed her fans, and is disqualified as an idol!

Since then, Lee Yong-soon has stopped being a fan of the group. Not only that, but because of Yoona's betrayal of him, he suddenly transformed himself into a radical Girls' Generation anti-fan.

Liked all kinds of posts that slandered and defamed Girls' Generation, spread hate and slander online, fought with the sone group that they used to be like a family, booed Girls' Generation during performances, etc...

He sincerely hoped that after he "stopped being a fan", Girls' Generation's development would get worse and worse, and it would be better if they disbanded. The hateful mentality of stopping being a fan and turning against the group was fully displayed.

At the beginning, this anti-fan career made him very motivated, and he did a lot of work. However... after Girls' Generation returned with an album in 2015 and fell silent, and no longer had any group activities, he suddenly felt a little empty in his heart.

The group he liked the most became the group he hated the most, but the group he hated the most... also became lonely and silent, not even giving him a chance to criticize.

Two years passed like this, and Lee Yong-soon naturally forgot about Girls' Generation and started paying attention to the younger female idols of the time... Twice, the most popular group at the moment, is his new favorite, and Sana's cuteness has made him a super fan.

As for the old-school Girls' Generation, there has been no group activities or news recently. Every now and then, there's a piece of news saying that someone is not going to terminate the contract or that they're about to disband. It's not known whether it's true or not, but the frequent appearances have become a bit boring, and he has no interest in paying attention.

Just last month, SM suddenly launched the pre-promotion for Girls' Generation's 10th anniversary album, releasing various materials one after another. While being unconsciously attracted to the attention, Lee Yong-soon was also attracted by several of the key words.

'Last Album', 'Tenth Anniversary Special', 'No Contract Renewal'

'Now it's Girls' Generation'

Seeing these words, Li Yongshun, who had lost interest in Girls' Generation for a long time, suddenly felt a slight ripple in his heart for some unknown reason. All kinds of scenes from his student days when he was crazy about Girls' Generation appeared before his eyes.

He didn't feel anything at the time because of the slight sourness... But after getting off work in the evening, he couldn't help but start paying attention to Girls' Generation's album.

I can’t say I like her, let alone become her new fan. If you ask Lee Yong-soon who he likes now, he can say without hesitation that he likes Sana Minatozaki, a thousand times more than he likes Yoona Lim.

But, I still can't seem to control myself and pay attention to it... Maybe I'm just paying a little attention to the group that once brought me beauty and happiness, and I want to give them and my own youth a final ending.

As soon as this thought and these key words appeared, the previous enthusiasm, the anger after being betrayed, and other emotions seemed to no longer be important in an instant.

This is what he thought and how he comforted himself, so he started paying attention to the news about Girls' Generation in the past few days.

As he got older, he wasn't as active online as he was in previous years. Except for last year when he couldn't help but echo a message saying 'no sana, no life', he hasn't spoken or left a message in a long time.

Apart from paying attention to Girls' Generation's boredom, he just quietly read posts and trend online.

However... from his observation, the online communities have been almost completely dominated by fans of Wanna One and various girl groups recently. They don't really care about Girls' Generation's comeback, but instead many are questioning and pessimistic:

"Girls' Generation is back! I thought they disbanded?"

"The most terrible thing is not obscurity, but consumer sentiment."

"SM's nursing home project encountered a super monster rookie, and Girls' Generation lost the last bit of their dignity."

"Honestly, we should just follow SES's example and disband."

Just look at a few forums and you will see such comments everywhere.

If it were in the past, Li Yongshun might be happy to see it... Some of the remarks he made in the past were even more radical and aggressive than this.

But at this moment, seeing these mocking posts, I feel very uncomfortable.

I feel a little conflicted.

I obviously don’t like it anymore, and I even hated it before…but this time I hope it will be fine.

Li Yongshun went online to look at the latest preview photos released by SM, and stared at Yoona's look for a while... Although she can't be called beautiful, she is actually quite good.

After looking at the photos for a while, he put down his phone, looked out the window, sighed softly, and muttered to himself:

“I heard the producer is Yuan?… I hope he can be good.”
