Chapter 3100 Hiding a secret

Xu Xian looked around Li Menglong and finally succeeded in attracting his attention: "What are you looking for? Do you need my help?"

"I'm looking for Yoona's body. Where did you hide it? I'll help you deal with it!"

Seohyun joked without changing his expression, his acting skills are quite realistic.

Li Menglong was really amused. Did this little girl come here deliberately to cause trouble for him?

"Are you sure you can do it? The scene is very bloody. The liver and intestines are flowing all over the floor. It's very scary!"

"It doesn't matter, I will go forward and retreat with you this time. You must know that she also cheated my money."

Xu Xian waved his fist angrily, and it looked like that was the case.

It's a damn thing that Li Menglong can believe her. If she really finds out, she will probably send him in with a backhand.

However, this conversation provided some inspiration to Li Menglong: "Do you have any taboos about horror movies? How about we try to make one?"

The topic changed too quickly. Xu Xian blinked cutely. It was difficult for her to keep up with Li Menglong's rhythm.

Why did he suddenly send out an invitation to film? Are you sure he wasn't joking?

However, as Xu Xian is a member of the company, she knows Li Menglong's position in the company very well.

To put it bluntly, Li Menglong can almost do whatever he wants in the company, especially when it comes to filming, no one will stop him at all.

If Li Enxi learns of this, he will probably hand over the contract immediately, even if the content of the project is strictly a "joke" from Li Menglong.

But seriously speaking, it is actually enough. This is how many major productions sell their films.

Li Menglong has past achievements as an endorsement, and Seohyun and the others have high popularity. The two together almost equal a box office hit.

If there is any doubt, it may be the niche theme of "horror movies" itself. It seems difficult for movies with this theme to become hits.

But everything is relative. Horror movies are notoriously low-cost, and their basic requirements for box office profits are not that high.

And the script is not very important, as long as it is scary, whatever logic, acting skills, and storytelling are required, just splashing all kinds of blood on it is enough.

Overall, this is a really good project. If Xu Xian was an outsider, she would probably participate.

It’s not that it’s impossible to lose money. There’s no way it’s 100% possible in a movie. But the corresponding probability of failure is already extremely low, so that’s okay.

So as long as Li Menglong is more serious, there will be almost no obstacles for this matter to finally become a reality. So how should Xu Xian respond?

Xu Xian didn't know whether he should take this as a joke, but if he really wanted to take it as a concrete invitation, he felt it was too ridiculous.

She has no intention of making a horror movie. It's not that she doesn't like low-budget movies, it's just that she is a little scared.

There are many rumors in this circle. For example, an artist who finished filming a horror movie went crazy a few years later. It is said that he was possessed by a mysterious being on the set.

Similar stories were often told before they went to bed. Every time Xu Xian pretended to be asleep, but in fact his body was very tight.

Even if he knew that similar rumors were not true, at least in this matter, Xu Xianning could believe it.

"I'm sorry, my schedule is quite full recently, why don't you ask Yoona? She will probably have time."

Seohyun decisively sold Yoona. Is it a recommendation to be precise?

They have introduced each other to work a lot, such as advertising, endorsements, etc. If they can bring sisters to work together, why not do it?

Especially jobs that they have to decline for various reasons are more suitable to be passed on to other girls.

They can even get some "commission" from it, but most of them express it in the form of treating guests to dinner.

But the current situation is so special. Xu Xian obviously doesn't like this job. In this case, he still wants to transfer it to Yoona? Isn't this a scam?

But Seohyun can also tell the difference. Didn’t Yoona always clamor to be Lee Mong-ryong’s heroine?

If you want to achieve this, you can't be picky. Once she refuses this time, there may be another time.

Even if YoonA doesn't like it, she still has to grit her teeth and persevere. Maybe Seohyun will come to thank her later.

In short, Xu Xian expressed strong resistance at this moment, which made Li Menglong have to put away this idea: "Forget it then, I always think it will be interesting."

interesting? Only Li Menglong finds it interesting!

Anyway, Xu Xian will never participate, even if it makes Li Menglong give up the entire project, she will not hesitate.

After all, there are many opportunities to make money, and you don’t have to seize every one of them. Besides, Li Menglong can definitely shoot some more meaningful works.

"For example, an action movie? You and Yoona jumped out of a plane, and then the plane exploded in the sky?"

Li Menglong followed Xu Xian's words and started thinking again, but this thought always ran counter to Xu Xian's.

She really suspected that Li Menglong did it on purpose, otherwise why would he always be able to tell the scene that she was quite resistant to?

What should I say about action movies? Although it is not so scary, it is really hard.

Logically speaking, artists should not complain about hard work, especially for large-scale productions where the salary is sufficient, and there is no reason to refuse.

But there is a different explanation when it comes to Xu Xian. Does she really want to earn such hard money?

Although it is not appropriate to say this, Xu Xian has indeed passed the age of making crazy money.

She already has the right to choose, for example, to choose works that are relatively low-paying but that she really likes.

"So it's still not possible? You little girl is too difficult to take care of. Otherwise, you can make a literary film."

Li Menglong's suggestion of breaking the pot was approved by Xu Xian, and literary and artistic films sounded much more reliable.

But literary films don’t make money. Is Li Menglong sure he wants to do this?

Even with the blessing of the girls' fame, Xu Xian still doesn't think too many people will come to see it, even their fans.

"You have entered the industry now. As a director, you must be flexible and make compromises for the sake of box office!"

Li Menglong warned him earnestly, which could be regarded as instilling the core concepts of his faction into Xu Xian.

In fact, Xu Xian knew it and quite agreed with Li Menglong's point of view. The premise of talking about a movie must be the box office, especially from the director's point of view.

No matter how good a movie is, when no one watches it, the various meanings attached to it are like rootless duckweed.

And the box office is not just for the director himself, but also for the team of hundreds of people behind him and the investors who have spent real money. These all need to be taken into consideration.

The truth is clear, but Xu Xian doesn't know what Li Menglong is going to do. Could he be hiding something from himself?

This shouldn't happen. Although it has never happened that a disciple of a disciple starved to death, would Xu Xian watch him starve to death?

If Xu Xian really does something like "deceiving her teacher and destroying her ancestors" in the future, those sisters will be the first ones who won't let her go.

So Li Menglong said it boldly. Xu Xian will never forget his kindness after learning.

After seeing Xu Xian's sincere eyes, Li Menglong was quite relieved. After talking about it for a while, he finally got to the point.

"Wouldn't everything be solved by adding an intimate scene? For example, if Yoona and Jessica kiss, the scene would be exciting just thinking about it."

Li Menglong swallowed hard while speaking. Even for him, the scene was still too exciting.

Combined with some scenes of touching and panting, it is estimated that the film will be able to sell the film at a guaranteed box office.

"Uh... you're trying to brush things off!"

"Hey, you kid, why are you talking nonsense? This is a literary and artistic film. Can we call it marginalia in a literary and artistic film? We call this art!"

Looking at Li Menglong's sanctimonious look, Xu Xian really despised him from the bottom of his heart.

Now it's just a private discussion between the two of them, and Li Menglong is still pretending. If this film is really made, how hypocritical will he be?

As for Li Menglong's so-called method, Xu Xian had to admit that it was feasible, and even thought that what he said was a bit conservative.

But she still doesn't approve of such methods. This is not against Li Menglong, but based on Xu Xian's own understanding.

She has watched a lot of movies, and she can say that the passionate scenes in most movies are unnecessary.

As for the idea that similar clips can be regarded as the sublimation of the protagonist's emotions, this view is even more bullshit.

On the contrary, Xu Xian recognized Li Menglong's previous attitude. These scenes were added from the beginning just for the sake of box office and to attract the audience.

This is a technique commonly used by directors and has nothing to do with art or anything else.

Although Xu Xian thought this way, she had to pessimistically admit that if she really had to face the day of choice, she would probably compromise.

After all, the box office is too important, and just add some insignificant scenes.

Sensing that Xu Xian was a little uninterested, Li Menglong realized that what he said was too direct? You should leave some room for Xu Xian's imagination.

"Forget it, I'm not that fragile yet. As for forgetting your previous thoughts as soon as possible, the Ernies will not agree."

Xu Xian gave Li Menglong a small warning. I guess he himself should know it, right?

There is no need to consider the personal wishes of the girls. From a practical perspective, it is impossible for them to agree.

Even within the entire idol circle, even newcomers will not take on such passionate scenes, because they can immediately consider quitting the circle after that.

On the contrary, new actors often choose to give it a try, and successful cases do emerge every few years.

This can be regarded as a barrier between the two circles. The audience and fans have completely different perceptions of the two.

After all, Li Menglong was considered a senior agent, so he would naturally not make such a mistake. It was just a pity for the idea itself.

"What ideas do you have? Can you please stop putting money on yourself?"

Xu Xian couldn't help but complain, and Li Menglong had the nerve to brag.

The starting idea of ​​the entire script is the passionate scene, and then use this to expand the subsequent complicated plot?

It sounds unreliable. Li Menglong should not let himself fall. He is still young, so don't always think of taking shortcuts.

"You're still here, right? You always remind me so I don't go astray."

"Thank you for your trust, but I don't think I have such a forward-looking vision, so you should do more introspection."

The two of them talked for a long time, until someone reminded them that it was time for lunch, and they stopped.

"Have we been talking for so long? I don't feel anything at all. This is too scary."

Li Menglong looked quite shocked, but Xu Xian thought he was pretending. He didn't think the two had been chatting for hours, right?

By the way, it was almost time for his lunch break when he came down from upstairs. If he was delayed, it was Yoona's responsibility. What does it have to do with her, Seohyun?

Xu Xian was about to point this out when he saw Yoona walking away in the distance, surrounded by a group of people, talking and laughing.

What's going on? Xu Xian is really afraid of this sister. Not only has she caused some trouble again, right?

You must know that all the girls are upstairs, but now the only one coming down is Yoona, and there are so many people following her. Even if she said she was going to fight, some people would believe her.

After thinking of this, Xu Xian couldn't sit still anymore, because it was not impossible.

Although she didn’t know what happened upstairs before, Yoona was probably aggrieved.

Unable to resist, Yoona put all the blame on outsiders, which made sense. For example, it was the coffee shop that she blamed.

If there was no "betrayal" from the other party, how could Yoona be reduced to where she is now?

She obviously arranged everything perfectly, but she couldn't resist the "sneak attacks" of such villains.

If Yoona and others were to go there and destroy the coffee shop, the joke would be too big, and Yoona could withdraw from the circle.

In order to stop this tragedy from happening, Xu Xian had to catch up in a hurry. She had to stop Yoona, even if it meant using violent means.

It's just that Xu Xian didn't communicate this idea to anyone. Even Li Menglong couldn't imagine that this little girl's thoughts would be so wild.

So he simply thought that Xu Xian went there to have a meal, which made him feel envious, and he wanted to go too.

But considering the relationship between him and Yoona, he should at least stop asking for trouble today, as Yoona would coax him out.

So how to solve his lunch problem? Xu Xian has already found the meal ticket. Should he also try hard?

For example, the group of women upstairs are a good target. Since they have not come down, it means that someone needs to run errands.

When it comes to running errands, Li Menglong is quite confident. There is no need to tip this time. As long as these women take care of the food, this requirement is not too high, right?
