Chapter 704 Give a chance

Kim and Taeyeon came back early in the morning. It felt like they had been working the night shift all night. They had worked so hard on recording songs all night. When they came back, they could hardly stand up straight.

Seeing that the lights in Li Menglong's room were still on, the two came over to say hello, but their voices were already extremely hoarse as soon as they opened their mouths. Although the singer had a pronunciation method to protect his voice, he could not sustain such high-quality singing.

"Okay, just stop talking. Have you finished recording the song?" Li Menglong poured hot water for the two of them.

"What do you think? Will this thing be recorded in a few days?" Lee Soonkyu said angrily. After feeling a little embarrassed tonight, Lee Soonkyu naturally began to use a bad attitude to cover up his inner shyness.

Fortunately, Li Menglong didn't care. This girl was not normal when she was normal. It was good to lose her temper like this.

"Taeyeon too?"

"What do you mean? I have to record for several days, but Kim Taeyeon can record it in one day, right? Are you discriminating?" Lee Soon Kyu said reluctantly.

Li Menglong immediately spread his hands. He could see it. Now Li Shunkyu could make some ambiguity in whatever he said: "I don't think you all can sing very well!"

Over there, Kim Taeyeon was sitting in Li Menglong's seat, sipping hot water while looking at the draft that Li Menglong had scrawled and corrected on the table: "What is this? Is it a script written by Misheng? Why does it look weird!"

"Don't act like a good boy here! I've resisted the pressure for you!" Li Menglong said dissatisfied: "If I really make a second season of Wei Sheng, you will play the heroine!"

Getting cheap and selling well is a common trick used by girls. In fact, Kim Taeyeon herself doesn’t want to film the second season of Misaeng. After filming the first season, she felt like she was going to die all over again. Filming is really a big deal for her. too tired.

Of course, this also depends on the role. If it's just the kind of innocent heroine Kim Taeyeon with big breasts and no brains who doesn't mind giving it a try, forget about this kind of careless role.

"This is the draft of your MV!"

"How can you create so many words in a music video?" Kim Taeyeon shook the writing paper and said exaggeratedly: "I would like to remind you, the music video does not contain dialogues from the characters, but our songs!"

"Nonsense, how can I, a great director, not understand the music video?" Li Menglong snatched the pieces of paper over and said, "Anyway, you don't have to worry about the music video. Go rest quickly and record the song earlier. I'll start filming immediately in the next two days. !”

"Okay, you are the director and your boss!" Kim Taeyeon, who has been a heroine, is indeed very enlightened.

Lee Soon Kyu was already yawning over there. After seeing the two of them finished chatting, he hugged Kim Taeyeon and walked upstairs. But halfway through, he turned back and warned: "Then make me look better than Kim Taeyeon!" If this is not possible, a higher level is also possible!”

Listening to the tired laughter coming from the second floor, Li Menglong also laughed. Although he was a little tired, everyone was very happy. This is the most important thing, isn't it.

As for the script in his hand, Li Menglong looked at it again. He was personally quite satisfied, but it was just too wasteful to use it as a MV, otherwise...

Shaking his head decisively, Li Menglong didn't intend to fall into the same pit twice. Isn't that how Weisheng came about in the first place? It's just that the original script was for a variety show.

This kind of behavior of expanding a simple idea to a TV drama script is actually quite uncomfortable, because there are limitations when I first think about it, so when it is expanded, whoever adapts it will be sour and who knows.

Li Menglong was lying in bed and felt that he had not slept for long when he was quarreled by the phone. Director Luo asked him to go to the company to participate in the casting call. He couldn't even shirk this. After all, he had escaped the biggest responsibility. He still had to help when it was time to do so. Help.

When he came out, he happened to catch a wild Xu Xian who was about to go out for class: "Ah, what are you doing sneakily? If you do something bad, tell me and I will help you!"

Xu Xian, who was startled by Li Menglong's sudden voice, clutched his chest and stared at Li Menglong in annoyance, but his words were still mostly concerned: "Oppa, why don't you just sleep for a while? I can just go to class by myself!"

"How can that be done? Our Goddess Xu doesn't even have a driver? Let your fans know that they will be against me! Wait for me for five minutes!" Li Menglong broke into the bathroom as he spoke.

It's so fast for a man to wash up. After moistening the towel and wiping the whole head, it's considered washing his face and hair. Then he spits out the mouthwash, which is considered brushing his teeth. He took the apple Xu Xian brought and bit it. One bite and breakfast is all done.

"Are you happy that Oppa is sending you to school? Are you excited?"

Xu Xian frowned and looked at Li Menglong who was showing signs of going crazy. She didn't know what Li Menglong was complaining about last night, but Xu Xian just didn't like Li Menglong who was a bit childish.

Xu Xian said with a slightly helpless tone: "I'm so happy, I'm almost flying!"

"Then fly one quickly and show it to me!"

Xu Xian really didn't want to talk anymore besides twitching at the corner of his mouth. He was so tired! He gave all the fruits he had prepared to Li Menglong. She would just buy them at school anyway: "Oppa, remember to find some soy milk to drink when you go to the company! You don't have to come to pick me up at night!"

"Let's call again! Don't come back secretly, otherwise I will be angry!" He imitated Xu Xian's way of speaking, which made the little girl squeal again.

Eating Xu Xian's fruit all the way to the company, there were a lot of people in the fried chicken shop on the first floor, but they were all ordinary people, but they didn't look like them, because after Li Menglong came in, these dozens of people seemed to be rehearsing. Yes, they all stood up.

But they didn't come over either. They just looked at Li Menglong with some fear and flattery, so he said cautiously: "Uh, are you my fans?"

"It's necessary. The person I admire most is you, Director Li!"

"That's right, starting from scratch..."

Just by looking at the proficiency of this flatterer and the quality of his words, you can tell that he is not an ordinary fan. After chatting for a while, he found out that they are all actors' managers: "What about your artists?"

It turns out that the basement was vacant, so Director Luo simply brought all the actors to the basement for interviews. As for these agents, they could only enjoy the fried chicken that was being swooned in the fandom.

"Then I'll go down too. Let's eat more. The fried chicken in our store is also very good!" Li Menglong didn't forget to advertise his store.

When he walked to the basement, Li Menglong understood why the agent was not allowed. On the one hand, he was afraid of affecting the preparation of the actors, and on the other hand, there were a lot of people. Although the area was large enough, the actors No. 50 and 60 were also a bit crowded.

Most of them were men, and there seemed to be only a few women. Li Menglong didn't know anyone, and he didn't have many contacts with artists, let alone these newcomers, so he just smiled and nodded and walked to exid's practice room, which is where it is today. Final interview venue.

"I said you should try to break up these people!"

"It's already been cast. You don't think that there are only so many actors coming to interview for a film that has more than five main roles, right?" Li Enxi said angrily, the most annoying person who questioned her work!

"After preliminary screening, there were three waves in the morning, afternoon and evening for two consecutive days!" Director Luo looked at the actor information in his hand. To be honest, it was stressful. He felt that he had to be responsible for these young people.

There were a total of four people interviewed by Sw. The opinions of Director Luo and Wu Xiuyan were the core ideas, and Li Enxi was mainly a reference for business value.

If Li Enxi is a soy sauce maker, then Li Menglong is a soy sauce maker. His coming can be said to be the revenge of Director Luo and Li Enxi. Why can he get away with it alone? Of course, he is willing to give some advice and everyone is happy to accept it.

Li Menglong was very accurate about his positioning. After interviewing more than 20 people, Li Menglong didn't say 20 sentences in total. After all, this was not his TV series. Director Luo would have his own considerations.

"Don't be nervous, just introduce yourself!" This was the twenty-first sentence Li Menglong said, which made Li Enxi roll her eyes wildly.

"Hello, teachers!" The young man finally became more normal after Li Menglong took the initiative to talk to him: "My name is Ryu Junyeol, and I am a graduate of Suwon University's Department of Drama and Film!"

"Uh, it seems from the information that you have never officially debuted?" Director Luo asked softly.

Just one sentence made Liu Junlie, who was opposite him, nervous again. After all, the gap between him and Director Luo was too far, and he was still a pure newcomer, and he was ugly. In the entertainment industry where handsome men and beautiful women gathered together, he really couldn't be an ugly second-hand man. Character!

This kind of pure newcomer, especially as an actor, was nervous during the interview and could have passed directly. However, Director Luo still asked him to perform, and it was no accident that his performance was terrible.

To be honest, this is a normal phenomenon in the entertainment industry. When Yoona first debuted, even with s*m's strong recommendation and her own extraordinary beauty, she still interviewed hundreds of crews before she got a small one. Role.

And Li Menglong estimated that the character was s*m afraid that Yoona would lose confidence, so he took the initiative to publicize it. This led to Yoona's performance in You Are My Destiny. This is the only way for newcomers.

But Li Menglong was a little interested in this ugly man. He chased him out while going to the bathroom, and saw that he was already walking far away on the street: "Kid, if you're not in a hurry, would you like to have a cigarette with me?"

Liu Xilie was flattered and walked to the shady corner of the street with Li Menglong. He took Li Menglong's cigarette and didn't dare to say that he didn't know how to smoke. He focused all his attention on Li Menglong.

"Just chat, don't be nervous!" Li Menglong joked: "Why don't you see your agent?"

"I haven't signed a contract yet!" Liu Junyeol said a little lonely: "To be precise, no one wants to sign me!"

"Because..." Li Menglong swept his big hand across his face as he spoke, and Liu Junlie opposite him smiled bitterly and nodded.

In fact, Li Menglong really didn't think too much about it, as if he saw a beautiful woman on the street and went to strike up a conversation. This woman's appearance made Li Menglong very interested recently, so he didn't mind giving her another chance.

"You and I will go back again, and I will give you the detailed script for the answer part! Go back and prepare well, and come back in three days. I hope you can give me a surprise!" Li Menglong was just a favor, but Ryu Junyeol is already very grateful for this opportunity.

"I will try my best, thank you...ahem..."
