Chapter 328 Lineup

Then naturally the matter of money came up, and Fatty couldn't help much in this regard. Now that his house has been rented out, he couldn't even get a mortgage, but Taohuayan gave him an idea.

"You're not really a rich second generation, are you?" Li Menglong smiled, but it didn't look like him eating a large intestine.

"Me? The third generation of rich people!" Peach Blossom Eyes said with rare seriousness: "Actually, you have some money, Brother Six!"

"my salary?"

"Not only that, there is also some other money!"

"Tell me about my past!" Since Li Menglong can accept the memory of the turbo period, there is nothing to be pretentious about his time as a soldier, and he can also guess some.

"Confidentiality regulations!"

"Can't I know too?"

"You don't remember, so why do you still need to know? Listening to it will only increase your troubles!" After Taohuayan finished speaking, he drank the soju directly from the bottle. Everyone is a person with stories.

He patted his shoulder lightly: "What about you now?"

"After you disappeared, everyone retreated!" Peach Blossom Eyes said with some regret.

"How are your brothers doing now?"

"That's it. I can't starve to death with my pension, but I'm just not used to it. There aren't many people who can find such a deep hobby like me!"

"Anyway, let's get together when we have time in the future!"

"Actually, everyone is quite satisfied knowing that you are living a good life, so no one bothered you, but they must be very happy to hear you say that!"

That night, the three of them drank and chatted until late, and then went to the fat man's doghouse to fight all night. The next day, when the three of them were walking to the company, a text message came from Taohuayan's mobile phone: "The money has come. Should I call you or call the company directly?”

“Is our country’s efficiency that high?”

"Then we have to figure out who is right!"

Li Menglong took it and looked at it. The money was not more than a billion, but he didn't feel it was much. To put it bluntly, he might have earned the money by working hard. Is one or two billion a year too much?

"Mine is almost the same as yours, but I spent a lot more this year. I'll give you a total of 600 million!"

There is not much to say about his brother Li Menglong. His relationship with Taohuayan is definitely more than what he can see. All Li Menglong can do is trust him without reservation, just like a family member.

When we came to the company again, many people worked overtime in the company all night. Li Enxi just took a nap in the office: "The seven of us can make some..."

"I just transferred a sum of money to the company. Take a look, it should be enough this time, right?" Li Menglong interrupted her, and then seeing her surprised face, Li Menglong smiled, picked up a lemon, and slapped her hard I took a bite and it was so sour and refreshing.

In the afternoon, the three confirmed actors Yoon Eun Hye, Kang Dong Won, and Kim Jong Kook, the three screenwriters Lee Mong Yong, Oh Soo Yeon, and Lee Yoo Jin, and the three directors Lee Mong Yong, Na Young Suk, and Yang Shouzhen, as well as the investors of Lee Mong Yong and Lee Eun Hee, gathered together.

Compared with Li Menglong's gloomy look when he just came back from Japan, things have completely changed in just a few days. Li Enxi herself doesn't know what to say. Was she born to be a secretary? After so many years of experience, you still can’t defeat Li Menglong?

Li Menglong directly ignored Li Enxi's resentment. It can be said that the main creators of the crew are all here now. Li Menglong wants everyone to speak out now if they have any concerns.

In fact, there are many problems, the most important one is the problem of Li Menglong's guidance, at least Yin Eunhye doesn't believe it. This is no joke. An actor must carefully consider every drama, and if this TV series is ruined in the hands of Li Menglong, she will not be willing to accept it.

Fortunately, Li Menglong was prepared. He asked Li Zhouyong to testify, and dug out some previous music videos and some demos shot with Li Zhouyong. Finally, there were solid crew-related matters.

All she heard along the way was that Yin Eun-hye could only say that Li Menglong had the potential to be a director. Then the professor Liang Shouzhen came forward and completely reassured Yin Eun-hye. She felt that the other party was here to suppress the enemy, but she did not know that it was Li Menglong who was suppressing the enemy.

The male and female protagonists and Kim Jong-kook, who can't be said to be the second or third actor, can only be said to be the main line of the story. The three of them signed the contract that afternoon, and no one thought much about Li Menglong's price of 50 million per episode. Just say whatever you say.

As for Kim Jong Kook? Li Menglong planned to treat him to a meal of fried chicken. The remuneration of the director, screenwriter, and his own actors of this film was included in the dividends. In other words, everyone did not want to take the money at all, but just wanted to film the story. .

Then came some relaxing moments. For example, I asked Yoon Eun Hye to learn a few words of Busan dialect on the spot, and she was still able to learn it in a decent way. I went to the practice room downstairs and asked her to dance with Kim Jong Kook. After all, she was in the movie. But Kim Jong Kook’s crazy meal.

"As a director, and you two as actors, I think your performance is too raw now, and there is no feeling between fans and idols at all. You need to cultivate it recently, otherwise something big will happen during filming!" Li Menglong said. .

It's just that Yoon Eun Hye and Kim Jong Kook are a little embarrassed. Li Menglong really wants to laugh out loud. If something doesn't happen between the two of them after this drama, he will feel that his life is a failure.

After the main actors are settled, it's time to find supporting actors. The biggest cost of this drama is in the actors, and with Kang Dong-won and Yoon Eun-hye joining, it will be troublesome to find actors, especially since the threat from KBS is still there.

The last few people discussed it and decided to start with acquaintances. Knowing the basics and not talking about it can reduce exposure. Li Menglong didn't want this TV series to be publicized in a big way. He even had some specific ideas.

The main actors in this drama are two female and four male student best friends, plus the idol Kim Jong Kook, as well as the protagonist's parents. The Korean veteran actors are all excellent, the price is not high and they have their own acting skills, so there is no need to worry about this aspect.

As for the four best friends, they already have male protagonists. One of the funny characters, Li Menglong, somehow immediately thought of one person and made him laugh just thinking about it.

"Ugh... Hidden camera? Who still thinks of me as an actor now? It's not your turn to introduce roles to me!" Lee Kwang-joo complained while brushing his teeth. His current position is similar to that of Kim Jong-kook.

Singers and actors are both side jobs. The image of a running man is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but he has never given up trying to be an actor, but the limitations of his role are too great, but this time it seems that the other party is serious.

"He's already here. Just give him some money for the film. No one has asked this guy to film movies recently!" Kim Jong-guo ordered casually, without any awareness of being a traitor.

There is also a gay character among the best friends. Although it sounds disgusting, he is also a pure love character. This is a plot forced by Li Youzhen to join. According to her, there are a lot of potential gays among the students.

It's just that this person is difficult to find. First of all, he must be handsome, gentle, and vaguely girly. Thinking about it gives me a headache, so I will put it on hold for now and leave it to everyone to find him.

The last best friend is the little boy who plays with the second female lead. He has the least portrayal. It’s not that everyone is lazy, but that everyone has reached a consensus from the beginning and wants to find someone who has memories of the past to play him. , as for the background and even the style of acting, it is best to portray him according to him.

To put it simply, it means doubling the memories. It’s not enough to have one Kim Jong-kook, there needs to be another one. This person can't just imagine it out of thin air. He needs to find someone who can be regarded as the same generation as Turbo and can grab the limelight. It's best if he can complain about himself from time to time.

In the end, I really found the right one after searching around. But looking at the photos from then and now, if Li Menglong is unrecognizable because he has grown up and become stronger, this guy is simply ugly and fat. It is simply He is a perfect example of a young man turning into a middle-aged man.

"Call me, don't dare say anything else. He will seize every opportunity with all his strength, and it's not easy!" Kim Jong-guo was obviously very familiar with the other person, so he called again.

This time, the other party didn't have any excuses and rushed over directly. However, in the end, Li Enxi looked at these actors as an outsider: "Are you sure you're not filming a variety show?"

The writer and director of Two Days and One Night, Tiger and Giraffe from Running Man, and Liu Jae Suk, a grasshopper, is probably going to make a guest appearance, and the biggest gangster turned out to be Xman from many years ago.

Let’s not talk about the couple Kim Jong Kook and Yoon Eun Hye. In the end, even Qian Mingxun was brought over. Although the other party’s rng was also a smash hit group back then, his current image is much different from before, and his popularity is here. It also reached rock bottom in a few years.

But seeing that Li Menglong didn't speak, she still endured it. Maybe they had their own considerations, but Li Enxi really didn't think highly of him.

Now we are missing a second female lead, an extremely complicated character. Because KBS is there, idols shouldn’t think about it. And with Yoon Eun Hye, who is willing to come over and be a supporting role for her?

From what Li Menglong's friends know, they know either men or very famous actresses. As for the company, the accumulation of information in this area is almost zero.

When Li Menglong didn't want to make a big deal about looking for actors, he couldn't find a suitable candidate for a while, which was very painful.

"Girls' Generation, they know you so well, no matter in terms of fame or acting skills, one daughter is enough. You know Taeyeon has also acted!" Others may not know Li Eunxi's thoughts, but Li Menglong knows it very well.

But what she said makes sense. A female lead is perfect for girls. It’s not shameful to play a supporting role for Yoon Eun Hye, and she even supports them. But after what happened with Yoona just now, s*m Edge arrival is a problem.

However, it seems that there are not only one or two girls who don't care about s*m, so Li Menglong hesitated for a while and finally made the call.

"What are you doing! You are eating, don't say bad things, it's off-putting!"

"You come and play the second female lead for me!"

"I told you not to be upset, doesn't it count as a joke?
