Chapter 255 Perfect Result
Lee Hyori's success can be attributed to the characteristics of the Korean market, so Zheng Xiuheng cannot be sure how far the artists released by Antenna in the future can go. Generally speaking, as long as the songs are good and the people are nice, like Hong Jin Young who has a lively personality, they will basically not fail. However, it is not so easy to predict how high they can reach, unless the songs released by the company in the future are all hits.
As for the antenna, Zheng Xiuheng can only do it with all his heart, and then look forward to the emergence of an artist at the level of Lee Hyori or one level lower, even if it is a group.
But Zheng Xiuheng has different ideas for this empty-shell actor agency. Because Korean actors have natural status and advantages, they don't need to reach the level of Lee Hyori. They just need to be first-line actors and be active on the big screen. If they win one or two Best Actress awards, they can basically get all kinds of commercial catwalks and advertising endorsements. Of course, the premise here is that they have a decent face.
In fact, even if it is a large-scale agency, it may have dozens of actors under its management, but only a few of them can really rank among the best. The rest cannot be said to be extras, but it is difficult for them to get any resources in the company.
In this regard, the status of actors in the entertainment industry is indeed not low, but for most unknown actors, agents and companies are basically like their fathers. If most of the agents in the music industry are like company employees who use chicken feathers as tokens of authority, then the actors' agents do have some of the abilities of agents.
There are many cases like the former where the agent is replaced, but actors' agents generally will not be replaced.
Zheng Xiuheng had made a decision and plan for his shell company when he saw the script. Now he does not have the ability to create a real star. The reason behind Zhang Ziyan's small success cannot be made public. Moreover, Zhang Ziyan is just a newcomer and has many flaws. In addition, her appearance is simply that of a strong sister, which also does not fit the positioning of a protagonist in the Korean entertainment industry.
Although nothing is absolute, to break this positioning, one must have strong strength. For an actor, it is naturally acting skills, but also the power behind it.
The same is actually true for Lee Yu-ri, but the difference is that Lee Yu-ri already has the acting skills to break the positioning and pattern. What she lacks is the driving force behind her. This is also the reason why Zheng Xiuheng decided to poach her when they met for the first time.
Zheng Dabin was the person Zheng Xiuheng decided to support from that time. Although there are many actresses prettier than her, her pure and ordinary beauty first fits the image of most Korean drama heroines, and secondly, her image is very suitable for most movies such as romance movies, horror movies, and even ethics movies and comedies.
Therefore, Zheng Xiuheng decided early on that he would promote her, to the top, and to make her his golden rooster. However, the resistance that hindered Zheng Xiuheng's goal came precisely from Zheng Dabin herself.
If Jung Da Bin was like Lee Yu Ri, Jung Soo Heng wouldn't have to go through so much trouble. This girl is too fragile. Compared with Lee Yu Ri, a third-tier and second- tier , your level of misery is obviously a little worse.
So Zheng Xiuheng said at the beginning that he didn't like Zheng Duobin because she was too negative and he hated such people. Even now, although everything was due to her coercion, she still chose to do something that made Zheng Xiuheng disgusted.
In fact, Zheng Xiuheng's thoughts are also very extreme. If Zheng Dabin had so much hatred, if she dared to kill her former president Jin Chengxun and then commit suicide, Zheng Xiuheng would not feel uncomfortable seeing her.
Because he actually saved Zheng Da Bin, Zheng Xiuheng didn't feel any guilt towards her. Since she really wanted to die, Zheng Xiuheng didn't mind taking over her future.
But Zheng Xiuheng kept asking himself whether this was wrong. Of course, it was not a means, but choosing Zheng Dabin as the target of his support...
A moment later…
"Okay, go change your clothes and go home!"
Zheng Xiuheng's expressionless face melted a little, and finally he affirmed his approach. As long as Zheng Dabin could return to his acting attitude, then all this would not be in vain.
In particular, Zheng Xiuheng even deliberately injured his palm for this.
"Yes!" Zheng Dabin stood up obediently, and the look he gave Zheng Xiuheng was no longer as complicated as before, but only worried and nervous.
Now Zheng Dabin's whole heart is tied to Zheng Xiuheng. To her, Zheng Xiuheng is not only her benefactor but also her sunshine, someone who can make her feel safe and warm, so all the changes were completed in an instant.
The makeup artist saw Zheng Da Bin get up, so she took her to the next room to remove her makeup. She was still dirty and had to wash herself after rolling on the floor for most of the day.
Zheng Xiuheng leaned back on the sofa, sighed, and raised his left hand...his face instantly darkened.
When girls bandage others, they like to tie a knot like a bow or something, but what shocked Zheng Xiuheng was that the palm of his left hand was actually tied into a knot...
"You were so scary just now. I thought my life was over and you were going to jail. Fortunately, fortunately, do you want one?" Seeing that Zheng Duobin finally left, Luo Hongzhen hurriedly sat down and said with lingering fear. His shirt was already wet with cold sweat.
When Zheng Xiuheng was chiseling down with the chisel, Zheng Duobin raised his head in front of Luo Hongzhen's horrified eyes. The scene was too horrifying, and Luo Hongzhen had already imagined the cruel ending without even thinking about it.
But in the end, Zheng Xiuheng's left hand moved directly to the sharp part of the chisel with the palm of his hand at the speed of light, saving Zheng Dabin's life.
They all wanted to step forward, but the two were in such a weird state, and Zheng Dabin burst into tears. Luo Hongzhen and the others looked at each other, and finally retreated. At that moment, everyone probably knew the reason.
Glancing at Luo Hongzhen, whose hands were still shaking, Zheng Xiuheng shook his head and said, "No, just smoke slowly. I don't like smoking!"
"Are you really not going to check your hand? If there's something wrong , it will be very troublesome to shoot!"
"No need, I know my situation well. Thank you for the filming!" Zheng Xiuheng still thanked Luo Hongzhen. Luo Hongzhen really did not affect him in doing this matter, and it was indeed worth saying thank you.
Luo Hongzhen waved his hands, took a deep breath, and then exhaled a puff of smoke, his expression slowly stabilized. He became a little melancholy and said, "This circle is so torturous. Although I don't know what she has been through, I can guess something from her sudden disappearance. I admire you very much. You can actually think of such a horrible method. You played Chi Yingmin in this play for this reason, right?"
"What do you think?" Zheng Xiuheng asked with a smile. He felt much better after solving a big problem in his heart.
"I think there must be. But it doesn't matter. What I want to know now is, did you succeed? Has she recovered?" Luo Hongzhen cared about this a lot. The previous bathroom shooting alone had proved it, as had Zheng Dabin's performance. The other party's acting skills were much better than he had imagined. Of course, this shooting was very different.
"I don't know if she has recovered or not, but there won't be any problem with her acting in this drama!" Zheng Xiuheng said confidently. He has put in so much effort and his hand is injured. If he still can't turn around Zheng Dabin, Zheng Xiuheng will probably go crazy.
"Xiuheng, I'm wondering if you like me? Otherwise, why would you..."
"Want me to drive a chisel into your brain?"
"Haha, well, go remove your makeup first. That's all for today's shoot, and forget about the test shoot. I believe everyone has a clear idea now, so let's hold a press conference in a few days!" Luo Hongzhen looked at Zheng Xiuheng's gloomy eyes, sat further away and laughed.
“I won’t attend the press conference!”
"ah!"
"Don't look at me with such surprise. To be frank, my participation or not will not have any impact at all. Instead, it will make people question whether you used a new star in this movie. Having Jung Da Bin attend the press conference is already enough of a topic. Playing some mysterious hype on the murderer will have a much better publicity effect than me attending any press conference!"
"That seems to be the case. If that's the case, then you can just join the crew when filming starts. I'm going to pack my things, so you'd better change your clothes quickly!"
"Um!"
Seeing Luo Hongzhen being convinced by him, Zheng Xiuheng instantly felt a sense of superiority in terms of IQ. Fortunately, the two producers did not come with him today, otherwise they would definitely object and even bring up the idea of exposing his identity. His identity as the president of the Antenna Family is enough to spark a topic. There are also Lee Hyori's cousin and Teletubbies. There are too many topics to talk about.
Luo Hongzhen was indeed still very immature as a new director, so much so that after hearing Qiu Changmin explain the ins and outs to him, the look he gave Zheng Xiuheng in the early stage of filming was full of resentment like a nagging woman.
After removing her makeup and changing her clothes, Zheng Xiuheng ignored Luo Hongzhen and others, said goodbye to everyone, and left with Zheng Dabin.
After the two men left, the director of photography found Luo Hongzhen and asked in a low voice what to do with the long shot that was being shot today.
Luo Hongzhen stood at the door and looked at the two people who had already walked out of the door. After thinking for a while, he said, "Cut it off and destroy it!"
"Isn't this a pity?" The director of photography said with some regret. Although they were also frightened just now and the filming must have failed, if they only edited the first part of the panoramic shot and then shot close-ups after the official filming started, it would still be a very impactful scene.
Luo Hongzhen shook his head and said with a subtle expression: "I believe that I should be able to shoot better next time, but today's segment is too dangerous. Brother Jinshi, please take a few cameras back and cut the film. I'll leave this matter to you to avoid any accidents!"
"That's true. Zheng Xiuheng is indeed too scary. I really thought we were doomed this time!" Director Jin Shi felt a chill on his back when he thought of the previous situation. If Zheng Xiuheng had really chiseled Zheng Duobin to death just now, then all of them would probably be doomed.
Luo Hongzhen nodded. They were all in the same circle. He might not be very good at hype and publicity, but he understood what he should understand.
Although today's funds were wasted, Luo Hongzhen didn't feel sad. On the contrary, Zheng Xiuheng's performance was enough to surprise him. As expected, this guy might not be good enough...
"He's just a pervert!"
