Chapter 83: The Knock that Is Not a Knock

"Remember, you owe me and Lao Chen a meal each. Sister, I don't have much spare money on hand."

"I won't forget it, Sister Ke Xin, you are really stingy now, you just cheated me out of food and drink, right? Where's your salary?"

"Clothes, cosmetics, jewelry, are these things free? Why is there so much nonsense?"

"Yes, yes, it's my fault. So what? I have something else to do, so I'll go and get busy first. When I have time, I'll treat you to dinner. That's it. Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Junning breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Kexin is getting more and more scary now. She is obviously a sister several years older than herself, but she likes to act coquettishly and like a child more and more.

Could it be that there is too much pressure to act like a cold goddess when facing subordinates, so you use yourself to show your true nature and vent your pressure?

If this is the case, I will have to avoid this sister from now on.

"Jun Ning, I've... Well, you don't look too good. Do you need me to call a doctor for you?" Huang Zhengmin knocked on the door and walked in, saying worriedly.

Luo Junning glanced at the reflection on the dark screen, shook his head and said with a smile, "It's okay."

"Is everything okay?" Huang Zhengmin looked worried.

"Veteran" is ready and waiting to start filming. Although Liu Chengwan's ability is very trustworthy, after all, Luo Junning, a name that has only become popular in recent years, can give people more confidence.

What's more, there is some degree of friendship between them.

At least, he was very grateful to Luo Junning.

"It's really okay." Luo Junning waved his hand and asked, "Brother Zhengmin, you came to me, have you adjusted?"

Previously, Luo Junning had reserved the role of the male lead in the film for Huang Zhengmin. Now it is almost a month. If Huang Zhengmin still cannot meet the requirements, he will have to make other considerations.

"Guilty. I've adjusted. Thanks to the 'concentrated experience' during this period, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to get out of my last role so quickly."

"Concentrated experience" is a period of time during which Luo Junning brings together the protagonists of "Veteran" to experience life in simulated scenes.

He had used this method before RM started filming, and the effect was very good.

Thinking about how when I first started to live a "concentrated life", I often stepped into the role of a "candidate for mayor of Seoul". Even with Huang Zhengmin's experience, it was a bit embarrassing.

Fortunately, his adjustment ability is really good, and he is very attentive and hardworking, so he has caught up with the final progress.

Luo Junning nodded and said with a smile: "Then let's go find PD Liu."

When I went to find Liu Chengwan, I naturally didn’t tell him directly: We can start filming!

Huang Zhengmin is the leading male and soul figure in the play, and his condition is particularly important. Therefore, no matter how much Luo Junning trusts Huang Zhengmin, he also needs to give confidence to Liu Chengwan, who is responsible for the filming and overall planning.

Ryu Seung-wan was very straightforward and directly let Yoo Ah-in, the male villain, and Lee Yun-hee, the female lead, have a scene with Hwang Jung-min respectively.

As a result, Liu Chengwan's face looked a little depressed.

It's not that Hwang Jung-min's performance is not good. On the contrary, his performance is quite outstanding and he has the style of an excellent detective. It's just that the performances of Yoo Ah-in and Lee Yun-hee are somewhat unsatisfactory.

This is a gap in acting skills.

Li Yunxi is a little better. Her role in the drama is more to add tenderness to the drama.

But Yoo Ah-in, the big villain, was at too much of a disadvantage when facing Hwang Jung-min, which was inappropriate and would lower the quality of the film.

Not to mention Liu Chengwan, even Luo Junning's face looked a little ugly.

"I'm sorry, Screenwriter Luo and PD Yoo, I will work harder to perform. Please give me another chance." Yoo Ah-in's attitude was quite correct.

He is actually just a new actor.

He debuted in 2007, and although he has won several awards so far, including starring in a movie "Fighting Boy, Wandei" with a box office of 5.31 million viewers, when it comes to acting skills, compared to established and well-known actors like Huang Zhengmin,

It's indeed quite a bit different.

This is not the most important thing.

Luo Junning and Liu Chengwan discovered this situation as early as the audition, but they still chose Liu Yaren because during the audition, Liu Yaren showed a shining point that other audition actors did not have.

With a talented actor like Huang Zhengmin, the shining points of other characters become extra important.

However, in the performance just now, this shining point disappeared, and Yoo Ah-in, who lost this shining point, also lost his biggest advantage in this drama.

Maybe he is the actor who needs to be replaced?

Liu Chengwan whispered his opinion in a low voice and did not deliberately avoid everyone, but it frightened Liu Yaren half to death.

Before coming over for a 'concentrated experience', the manager of his agency had talked to him privately and asked him to seize the opportunity. It would be best if he could build a relationship with Luo Junning.

But now, it is clear that the 'concentrated experience' is about to end and the official filming is about to begin, but he suddenly said that he wants to change the actors. Isn't this going to cost him his life?

If he is really replaced, given the importance the company attaches to Luo Junning and the Infinite Group, will it still be able to provide itself with resources?

Looking at Liu Yaren, who seemed to be frightened, and several other nervous actors, Luo Junning rolled his eyes secretly: Liu Chengwan, Liu Da PD, is also very bad!

"There are still a few days left."

"Oh well."

Liu Chengwan sighed helplessly, then looked at Liu Yaren and others with a stern face, "Although I don't want to say this, your performance is indeed very unsatisfactory. No matter what happens in other crews, here, if you can't meet the requirements of me and screenwriter Luo, even if we start shooting, we will choose more suitable candidates, remember it!"

Sure enough, he is a bad guy, isn't he showing off?

Luo Junning curled his lips, but didn't spoil it.

After the actors went back to prepare, Liu Chengwan smiled awkwardly and said, "President Luo, I'm really sorry that I didn't tell you clearly in advance."

"It's okay, just don't treat me as a fool."

Seeing that Liu Chengwan laughed more awkwardly, he smiled and said indifferently, "Didn't I say it before, I'm just a screenwriter, not the president in the crew."

"Yes, screenwriter Luo."

"Okay, then you continue to be busy, I have other things to do. I'll come over on the day of the start of filming."

"Yes."

Liu Chengwan is just a director, and an academic director. No matter how "bad" he is, it is much easier to deal with than those old foxes.

Moreover, this PD Liu is also interested in joining Infinite Films.

Therefore, as the chairman of Infinite Group and the hands-off producer and screenwriter of "Veteran", he said that he is very relieved and will be more tolerant.
