Millennium Director

Chapter 373 Yang Mi and Li Dongxu

Located in the Park Hyatt Hotel, the top luxury hotel in Gangnam District, Seoul.

Zeng Jia and Yang Mi, who had just arrived from China, were looking at the interior of this top luxury hotel in admiration.

Of course, they are not qualified to talk to the person in charge of tvN with Wu Yuan, but Yang Mi is already very satisfied with the current situation.

"I asked when I came up, and this room costs 200 US dollars a day." Zeng Jia said with emotion: "You have to stay for at least two months, and the accommodation fee alone will be 100,000 yuan less."

“There is so much money in the age of light and shadow!”

Rongxinda is also one of the major brokerage companies in the mainland. It can finance and produce TV series by itself, and can barely connect the upstream and downstream to provide one-stop services.

But even so, when Yang Mi was at Rong Xinda, the company was not so luxurious as to let her stay in five-star hotels, and they were top-notch luxury hotels.

She jumped onto the big soft bed with satisfaction and buried her head in the silk quilt: "This job is really worth it."

"That's right." Zeng Jia smiled brightly: "You must be right to listen to me."

"Although your salary for "Ghost" this time is not high, only 200,000 yuan per episode, this is the company's own project. As long as you perform well in front of Director Wu, you will be in Director Wu's eyes, and your future is limitless. ”

Zeng Jia's face showed a look of longing: "I heard that Director Wu is preparing a Hollywood blockbuster in the United States, which will be released worldwide."

“It would be really amazing if you could get involved in this movie.

After hearing this, Yang Mi's eyes showed a bit of ambition, and she nodded fiercely: "I know!"

"Where's the script? Bring it over and I'll read it a few more times and try to figure it out."

It was so pitiful, she could swear to God, during the college entrance examination, she didn't even work hard after accepting the script of "Ghost"!

While the two were pondering over the script, outside Yang Mi's room, Li Dongxu, with his assistant and translator, also stood at the door with some anxiety.

Big bosses from China and South Korea were talking, and he, the leading actor, had no time to spare.

After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and gently rang the doorbell.

Soon, a clear and pleasant voice sounded from the door.

Zeng Jia said in English: "Wait a minute" and hurried over to open the door. She thought it was room service.

"Hey, who are you?" When she saw that the person standing at the door was not a smiling waiter, but Li Dongxu, who was very handsome in suits and ties, she was stunned.

"Hello, I am actor Li Dongxu. I will play the role of Wang Li, the messenger of the underworld, in "Goblin"."

"Excuse me, Miss Yang Mi, do you have time? I would like to talk to her about the filming of this drama and do a couple of scenes together."

"The two of us have a lot of rivalry scenes, and there is also an emotional line. I want to discuss it with Yang Mixi before the script workshop begins."

Script Workshop.

To put it simply, the director and screenwriter call all the leading actors together to discuss the script, share their understanding of the script and the characters they play, and help each other understand themselves.

Generally, before starting production of TV series and movies, several rounds of script reading meetings must be held, especially the more demanding directors, the more they value this.

Only later, after the mainland’s traffic era began, with actors becoming more and more famous, and the status of TV drama directors getting lower and lower, they couldn’t use actors at all. Top actors always had no schedules or time, so script reading sessions gradually stopped being held.

But no one dared to show off in front of Wu Yuan.

On the contrary, Li Dongxu was worried that when he first met Wu Yuan, his understanding of the script and characters was not deep enough and Wu Yuan would be dissatisfied, so he hurriedly approached Yang Mi and wanted to "have a small talk" with her.

After all, the two of them are rival actors. When they understand the script, they are also understanding each other's characters.

"Oh good!" Zeng Jia was a little surprised by the Korean actor's professional attitude. She stretched out her head and looked around. After making sure that there was no one else in the corridor, let alone paparazzi, she invited him into the room.

"Mi Mi Mi, Li Dongxu, who plays opposite you, is here to exchange scripts with you."

Yang Mi, who was rolling on the bed in the back room, rolled over like a carp, looked at the dressing mirror against the wall, straightened it out quickly, and then walked out of the room quickly.

"Hey, he's quite handsome!" Yang Mi sighed inwardly when she saw Li Dongxu for the first time.

"Yang Mixi, it's nice to meet you. We will be cooperating for a while." Li Dongxu bowed again and held his elbow to shake hands with her.

This comprehensive set of etiquette makes it difficult for the big girls in the capital to get used to it.

Yang Mi's English is not very good, or she is admitted to the acting department, and most of her cultural classes are quite average.

Fortunately, Li Dongxu was very careful and brought a Chinese translator, and Zeng Jia understood English, so the communication between the two was relatively simple.

Soon, Yang Mi got into the mood, reviewing the script with Li Dongxu, and exchanging views on the characters and their mental journeys.

Although Yang Mi was criticized in later generations, there were endless accusations of drama, acting like a big name, disrespecting work, etc.

However, Yang Mi, who debuted as a child star and studied at Nortel Vocational College, has a decent professional level. When she is willing to work hard, her level of performance also makes Li Dongxu look at her.

Even in South Korea, it is rare to see such a young and highly professional TV drama actor as Yang Mi.

It can only be said that anyone who can make it out of the highly competitive entertainment industry must have a few skills.

After the two of them had a conversation for an afternoon, they basically sorted out the relationship between Wang Li and Sunny, and had a deeper understanding. Only then did Li Dongxu reluctantly bid farewell to Yang Mi and agreed to continue to review the script tomorrow.

In this way, after the two of them reviewed the script for three consecutive days, they showed off their style when the crew officially gathered for the script reading meeting on the fourth day.

Whether it was director Song Yang or Wu Yuan, who was the male lead on the surface but actually the emperor, they were very satisfied with the script understanding shown by the two.

This shows that the two of them really put a lot of effort into the script reading!

"Not bad, not bad, Li Dongxu and Yang Mi have a high level of script understanding." Sitting at the bottom, Wu Yuan tilted his head and whispered to Liu Yifei: "This level of understanding is not inferior to ours."

You know, the two of them have been "deeply communicating" in bed.

Looking at Li Dongxu, who smiled at Yang Mi from time to time, with some doubts, Wu Yuan keenly caught something from their eyes.

"Something's wrong." He frowned.

But now is not the time to consider these irrelevant things.

"Okay, everyone has a good understanding of the script."

Song Yang looked around the study room.

Except for the three leading actors Wu Yuan, Liu Yifei and Yang Mi, most of the other supporting roles were recruited from Korea, and they are all golden supporting roles of the three major Korean TV stations.

For example, the actor who plays the grandson of the president of Liushi Group is Lee Donghae, a member of the Korean boy group Super Junior, which is now popular in Asia.

This is also part of the cooperation between Guangying Times and tvN, and it is also a way to make it easier for Koreans, who have always been repulsive to outsiders, to accept this TV series.

Netflix has come, and they have to use Korean actors and cooperate with Korean local production companies. Wu Yuan did not expect to enter the Korean market with a TV series with all Chinese actors.

Compared with giving up one or two leading roles, Wu Yuan is more willing to let Korean actors play most of the supporting roles.

This will make Korean audiences feel familiar and feel more like a "local drama". There are more than ten actors in "Goblin", and only three are Chinese. At least on the surface, it has a high Korean content!

"Thank you for your study and discussion over the past few days."

"Then, I declare that the study and discussion of "Goblin" is over!"

"Everyone take a day off tomorrow, and the filming will officially start the day after tomorrow!" (End of this chapter)
