Peninsula Asteroid

"Why are you standing up all the time..."

A slender figure walked up to him, pulled out a stool and sat down directly.

She took off the small bag she was carrying and put it on her lap, glanced at Chi Jingyuan who was also sitting down, and said with a kind tone and elegant movements, "Are you always so polite when drinking coffee with Taeyeon?" "

"That's not true." Chi Jingyuan shook his head with a smile: "If I have coffee with Taeyeon... I usually arrive late."

The person who asked him to meet at this coffee shop was Lin Yoon-ah, a senior whom he had not seen for a long time.

Lin Yoona also returned from Xia Kingdom with her manager in the past two days.

If you don't count Ji Kyung Won or EXO, Lin Yoona is one of the artists who has had the greatest impact on SM artists due to this sudden incident. She has been participating in activities with Xia Guo since last year, filming TV series, and He also worked hard to learn fluent Chinese, making it clear that he wanted to shift the focus of his activities to the mainland of Xia.

The effect of the event was also very good. Although "Martial God Zhao Zilong" did not have a good reputation, it was still very popular. Soon after, she was offered the position of the heroine of a large-scale fantasy fairy tale drama. It was not smooth... Once she was able to stand firm. Heel, the huge mainland market will bring her career to a new level, and the impact of the bad dramas filmed in the peninsula with poor reputation in the past few years will not matter.

It's a pity that God did not fulfill his wish.

This time, due to force majeure, almost all the previous investment and efforts were in vain. The foundation laid before and the heroine of the new drama were gone. It can be said that I encountered a lot of setbacks in my career.

After looking at her at this time, Lin Yoona still had the same face that surprised Chi Jingyuan when they first met. She had long black hair shawl, and the simple combination of shirt and jeans looked very tasteful on her body. There is a more mature atmosphere, which is completely different from the feeling of the second maknae in Girls' Generation activities.

With full make-up and a rosy complexion, she seems to be in good health and cannot see the frustration that her career development has been greatly affected.

The place for this meeting was found by YoonA-senpai. It was not placed in the coffee shop on the first floor of the company, but a higher-end coffee shop near the company... It was just two days after returning, Just a little anxious, he went to Chi Jingyuan to drink coffee and chat, which also showed some urgency in his heart.

Chi Jingyuan actually had some guesses about what his senior was going to say.

"So don't be so solemn." Lin Yoona pulled up her hair and sounded very familiar: "Just treat it like when you get along with Taeyeon and Unnie."

"Then do I take it seriously?" Chi Jingyuan heard this, paused, smiled, and asked tentatively.

Lin Yun'er didn't say anything, but gave him a smart look, which was considered an answer.

It seems that Lin Yoona often comes to this place. After her introduction, Chi Jingyuan ordered a cup of Americano like her. Soon the coffee was served. The two of them did not get directly to the topic but exchanged a few words first and drank. We started chatting casually, and after just a few words, the song that had just been played in the cafe ended and a new song was cut to it.

As soon as Chi Jingyuan listened to the intro, he could tell it was "Missing You" by EXO.

Lin Yoona obviously heard it, and hummed a few lines along with the introduction as if she liked it very much: "You guys are really flying into the sky now. You can hear XO's songs everywhere. I often saw you when I was in Xia Kingdom Ours, especially your poster Jingyuan, EXO is also a good topic when chatting with friends... They are already the most popular artists in Kpop in mainland China."

Yoona-senpai has this ability, being able to talk about ordinary greetings and situations so sincerely that Chi Kyung-yuan feels a sense of pride when he listens to it.

Chi Jingyuan showed a sunny smile, seemed a little embarrassed, and said with the same sincerity: "It's just good luck...the market was opened up by the seniors of Girls' Generation."

After saying that, he was done watching. He took two sips of coffee and asked proactively: "Senior, did you call me out because of the TV series?"

"Inside."

Entering the topic, Lin Yoona nodded naturally: "It's about the drama "The K2". You may know something about it. I received a performance invitation from the crew before, but at that time, I had already confirmed that I would star in a new mainland drama. Although I’m sorry, but I apologized and declined.”

"As a result, something happened again..." Speaking of this matter that had a great impact on her, she shook her head slightly and smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly. It seemed that her mood still fluctuated a bit.

She took a sip of coffee to cover up, then looked over and continued: "I heard Oppa Shiyong said that the crew also sent you an invitation to play the leading role?

Li Shiyong is her personal manager and is usually responsible for contacting various activities.

Sure enough, it's about the TV series.

Chi Jingyuan was right.

YoonA's career in Mainland China was blocked, so she naturally had to return to the peninsula to develop her career again. At the same time, she also had to take advantage of some of the mistakes she had made in rejecting TV dramas before. Among the scripts that haven't confirmed the starring role and haven't started filming yet, "The K2" has an excellent cast and script. Yes, it is a very good resource.

But after all, she had refused before. Lin Yoona might feel embarrassed, or she might not be too sure. After hearing that Chi Jingyuan had also received an invitation and might participate in the show, she wanted to ask him about this drama. Progress things.

She probably just came back not long ago, and there was a slight lag in the news between her and her agent. She didn't know that Chi Jingyuan had already negotiated with the crew of "Ghost"... But the two parties were not in the same department in the first place, so there was no special inquiry. , it is normal for the news to be delayed a bit.

In fact, if Chi Jingyuan really takes the leading role in "K2", he would be quite happy to help.

pity.

Chi Jingyuan sighed secretly in his heart, and without being perfunctory, he said directly and honestly: "It turns out that the senior asked about this matter. I did receive an invitation from the crew over there, and I also read the script, but I also considered starring in it. possibility, but..."

Noticing the serious look in Yoona's eyes, he paused and shrugged with regret: "Although the script is excellent, I have already rejected the crew before... because I have already accepted another TV series and the contract has been signed. It is estimated that the news will be made public in a few days.”

"Uh..." After hearing this, Lin Yoona, who had already been thinking about what to say next, got stuck.

After she came back this time, after meetings and discussions, she had decided to go back to pick up the female lead in "THE K2". After hearing that Chi Jingyuan might play the male lead, she was very excited and asked him out to talk. She wanted to Talk to Chi Jingyuan about the crew.

She was quite confident about getting the role again. She was originally looking forward to the possible cooperation, but she was going to discuss the script with Chi Jingyuan later. As soon as she got down to business, she suddenly stopped before she could say anything. Stopped.

"Did you accept other dramas? Oppa Shiyong didn't know about it." Lin Yoona was stunned for a second, shook her head and looked a little regretful, but she recovered immediately and asked curiously: "Do you know, is it? Which one?"

"Of course, it's the new work "Goblin" by writer Kim Eun-sook."

""Ghost"..." Upon hearing this name, Lin Yoona couldn't help but look at Chi Jingyuan with an even weirder look.

Of course she had heard of this drama. Who could not pay attention to the works of the original cast of "Descendants of the Sun"? However, the crew has not publicly announced the casting, and SM does not have so many resources.

Unexpectedly, this script, which was watched by many people, was quietly obtained by Chi Jingyuan... Based on her understanding of Chi Jingyuan's status, it was natural for her to think that he was playing the male lead.

You can even receive this kind of resource... Didn't you hear that it was Gong Yoo before? You can even grab it from him?

"Haha..." Chi Jingyuan squinted his eyes and smiled shyly without explaining the various secrets about the casting of "Goblin" in detail.

"That's really a pity. I originally thought I could have a chance to work with Jingyuan once."

Although she was a little surprised in her heart, Lin Yuner was not obsessed with it. She gently stirred the coffee twice with a spoon and sighed.

"It's a bit of a pity indeed."

Chi Jingyuan nodded in agreement, but felt a little weird in his heart.

If the script of "The K2" he read is correct, there are a lot of kissing scenes between the male protagonist and the female protagonist. It can be said that they kiss from beginning to end... Senior, are you regretting this?

Senior YoonA is very good at socializing. Although she knew after just a few words that the purpose of this time was nothing, she didn't look too disappointed. Instead, she naturally and interestingly chatted about goodbye with Chi Jingyuan. They talked about a lot of interesting things about their activities and filming in Xia Kingdom, and also asked about some recent gossips in the peninsula's music industry. The two of them had a good time chatting.

"...But when it comes to the script of "The K2", I read it carefully many times."

Although there may not be a chance to cooperate with this drama, he is here, and Yoona sunbaenim is very likely to regain the position of the heroine. After chatting for a while, Chi Kyung-won mentioned this topic again, thinking After thinking about it, I shared some of my own opinions:

"Compared to ordinary idol romance dramas, this drama is relatively novel in that it has the skin of a chaebol and a special forces soldier. Especially the male protagonist has a lot of action scenes in it which is very attractive, but in terms of female characters, especially the heroine The shaping is actually not very good."

"As far as the scripts of the first few episodes I have seen are concerned, the image of the heroine Gao Anna is very thin. The settings of several scenes with the male protagonist make people feel inexplicable. She is also timid and cowardly. The innocent idiot beautiful girl has such a character nowadays. It’s really unpleasant. In comparison, I think Cui Youzhen, the second female lead, has a much better setting, and it’s easy to impress people.”

"...Senior wants to take on the role of Gao Anna. If possible, he still needs to communicate with the writer and make some modifications in some details."

Chi Jingyuan has specially studied the script of this drama. Let’s not talk about the male lead for now. As far as the script he got, it is not so much that Anna Gao is the female lead, but that the chaebol wife is the female lead. The performance in the play is much more exciting, and if it is paired with a suitable actor with excellent acting skills, it will be even more brilliant.

Although he didn’t know if Lin Yoon-ah had the same appreciation and connections as him that allowed writers to revise the scripts, but he still kindly reminded her, after all, she was his senior and idol in the acting field.

"Jingyuan's suggestion is really important, I will consider it carefully..."

"It would be best if I could help a little bit."

"Well...but you won't be..."

After listening to Chi Jingyuan's suggestion very seriously, Lin Yuner nodded solemnly, then glanced at him with thanks first, and then deliberately showed suspicion and expectation after saying goodbye, but looked over with a smile obviously in her eyes. : "You don't like me, do you?"

Such a straightforward question might make others nervous and hesitate to speak, but Chi Jingyuan was slightly stunned. He was not embarrassed to be asked, but showed a somewhat surprised expression, looked at Lin Yuner and blinked: "Am I being obvious?"

"..."

The two people looked at each other, looked at each other's expressions, and suddenly laughed together. The tacit laughter was mixed with many interesting emotions, and the sound lingered around them.

In fact, I have known Lin Yoona for a long time, but apart from Chi Kyung-won’s occasional fan behavior, he is actually just a relatively familiar company senior, but in comparison, he is far less familiar than Kim Taeyeon, but at this time, he is laughing. , he felt that the two people suddenly became inexplicably familiar and close to each other.

"You..." Lin Yuner smiled and shook her head.

"What's there to be embarrassed about?" Chi Jingyuan waved his hand without any embarrassment, and suddenly recalled: "When I first joined the company, the teacher gave us some instructions on what to pay attention to when doing variety shows, and asked us to do it every day. When I choose my ideal type, do seniors know who I choose?"

"It can't be me, right?" Lin Yuner hesitated and pointed at herself. Although she didn't seem to believe it, her eyes were shining and there was obvious expectation in her tone.

"Bingo! I'm talking about Yoona-senpai... It's a pity that I was scolded by the teacher and told not to talk about artists of the opposite sex who are closer in age." Chi Jingyuan immediately nodded in approval, and then curled his lips with some regret.

Before Lin Yoona covered her mouth and laughed, Chi Jingyuan raised his eyes and thought about it, and then said: "By the way, I still remember when I was in school in LA, I saw Girls' Generation's promotional posters in the stadium. I remember that time The most eye-catching among the posters, and the one that impressed me the most, is the poster of Yoona sunbaenim..."

"Ah qingjia?" Lin Yuner opened her eyes and leaned forward a little. Although she used a question, she obviously believed it.

"Of course." Chi Jingyuan looked serious and sincere. Looking at Lin Yuner in front of him, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were filled with a reserved and satisfied smile, but he couldn't help but laugh in his heart. come out.

Sure enough, what Kim Taeyeon said is right. Yoona sunbae seems to have matured a lot in recent years and has a high emotional intelligence, but in fact her personality has not changed much, it is just disguised by her mature demeanor.

According to Taeyeon’s sister’s original words: “Don’t look at her pretending to be in politics every day. In fact, she knows that she is good-looking and narcissistic. She has been like this since she was a trainee. , if others take care of her a little bit, she will feel that others like her and are interested in her... Just keep praising her and saying nice things, that's absolutely right."

As expected, he is the team leader who has lived together for so long, and his understanding is quite deep.

The person Ji Kyung-won was talking about when he answered the question about his ideal type was indeed Lin Yoon-ah, but the latter story was somewhat embellished. When he was in school in LA, he did see Girls’ Generation’s promotional posters, but when it comes to good-looking and impressive If... In fact, none of them were conspicuous, and they were forgotten after seeing them. He didn't pay attention at all at that time.

"..." Lin Yun'er covered her mouth and looked very happy, and she couldn't help but laugh. But after all, she was a senior, so she was still not that easy to coax. She rolled her eyes and looked over thoughtfully: "That's a senior. Am I better-looking, or is Irene better-looking?"

Feeling the narrowing of vision, Chi Jingyuan paused for a moment.

So you know...

But this kind of question didn't bother him. Chi Jingyuan pretended to think for two seconds: "In terms of beauty, it must be..."

In Lin Yoona's expectant eyes, he simply said his father's name: "That's still Irene."

"Ha..." Lin Yuner smiled, but the originally perfect smile now contained a bit of disdain and self-deprecation, making it look much more real and lively than before.

"As for dating, in the hearts of men, of course, my own daughter is the prettiest." Chi Jingyuan chuckled, looking very sincere.

He also felt the changes in Lin Yuner. Although there was no chance of cooperation this time, after drinking coffee this time, the relationship between them became a lot more familiar, and he was quite happy.

Lin Yoona nodded noncommittally to Chi Jingyuan's remarks, quickly rolled her eyes, and asked maliciously: "Jingyuan, you said that you thought my promotional posters were the most beautiful and conspicuous at the time...and Taeyeon Onii's." Woolen cloth?"

"Um..." Chi Jingyuan opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment and told the truth: "I have no impression."

"Haha..." This answer seemed to make Lin Yoona very happy. She covered her mouth and laughed twice, and said in a narrow tone: "Don't let Taeyeon and Oni hear this...she will definitely be jealous."

Chi Jingyuan asked in confusion: "It's not a relationship, how can I still be jealous?"

"Of course, sometimes if the backup dancer or accompaniment that Taeyeon often uses collaborates with others, she will be unhappy and jealous... That's how she is." Lin Yoona smiled cheerfully, not sure if it was a guess. When it came to something, Kim Taeyeon's character shortcomings were revealed in a nonchalant manner.

You guys really understand each other...

Chi Jingyuan felt inexplicable in his heart, but his face remained calm. He waved his hands and looked indifferent: "She has been busy returning these days and has no time to care about us."

"Ha ha……"

…

Although other interesting things were mentioned later, it can be seen that Lin Yoona still attaches great importance to Chi Jingyuan's suggestions and opinions on the script. If she can really get this role again and polish the character and plot a little, Chi Jingyuan is actually quite optimistic about this drama. It will definitely be much better than "Love Rain", and it will help the senior's career focus back to the peninsula.

After drinking coffee, the relationship between Chi Jingyuan and his idol became much closer, which was also a happy harvest.

As he said, Kim Taeyeon is currently busy with her comeback. Time flies and on June 28, SM released all the sound sources and MV of Kim Taeyeon's second mini album "WHY", and the title song landed at No. 2 Her performance also reaffirmed the strong strength and popularity of her and EXO, who are currently both SM music sources.

As a good friend, Chi Kyung-won also took a photo of the signed album that Kim Taeyeon personally gave him and uploaded it to his Instagram to help promote it.

At the same time, also on the 28th, the production company Hwa \u0026 Dam Pictures officially announced: # Ji Kyung-won # will star in "Descendants of the Sun" writer Kim Eun-sook's new work "Goblin" (tentative title) The male protagonist, the drama is expected to be broadcast on tvN in November.
