Shining Star Korean Entertainment

After a trip to Seoul Spring Fashion Week, Lin Youmin's popularity is not much lower than that of the top models, at least in the eyes of the fans present.

The most professional fashion designers and photographers have different visions. Some people highly admire Lin Youmin, especially after working hard and settling in the entertainment industry. Compared with those traditional models, his temperament is...

A little more different flavor!

There are also people who sneer at him, thinking that he is just a clown trying to attract attention! The fashion industry and the entertainment industry run on both sides, and I am afraid that both sides will not be pleased. Most of the people who hold this idea are the male models at the scene.

You say you're doing well in the entertainment industry, but why are you going to the T stage to steal their jobs?

Seeing a lot of photographers and designers backstage making friends with Lin Youmin and exchanging business cards, many of them couldn't help but feel a little bit amused.

Lin Youmin didn't care either. Although it was good to walk on the catwalk occasionally, apart from acting, his main fashion business was still on two-dimensional photography such as magazine pictorials. Before the show started, he just stayed alone.

He was playing with his mobile phone in the corner, ignoring the seemingly nonexistent isolation of the group of male models.

As soon as the show ended, Lin Youmin was immediately picked up by Quan Encan. Taking advantage of the crew's vacation, he seized the time to take several pictorial and magazine shooting schedules. The reason why fashion week is called fashion week naturally cannot be only one day. Lin

Youmin has been coming here to change into clothes from different designers for several days in a row. After being so busy, the original vacation plan has long since disappeared without a trace!

Sacrifice of vacation, but in exchange for real benefits and fame, it is still worth it! In Quan Encan’s view, Lin Youmin does not need to focus too much on the fashion world. With Lin Youmin’s appearance

With his temperament and past experience, as long as he gets involved in the entertainment industry, he is not afraid that no one will invite him.

Modeling is also a hard job. Posing and expressing expressions make Lin Youmi's whole body sore. When taking pictures, every little flaw in expression or movement has to be overturned and started again. He has been busy until midnight for several days in a row to catch up on the progress.

, Lim Woo-min finally completed the filming that Kwon Eun-chan took over!

But Lin Youmin still didn't have any free time, because he still had to convince a very important person...

…

In the corner of a quiet coffee shop, two people were sitting face to face. This was the shop that Lin Youmin often visited before, and that was the time when he met Park Hyomin.

After participating in the interview, Quan Euncan helped Lin Youmin to make an appointment with "The War of Money" director Zhang Taiyou through connections. As for how to convince him, it depends on Lin Youmin

Solve it yourself.

It can be regarded as a "back door". No one cares anyway. The competition for roles is based on everyone's ability and their own talents. Unless there are no particularly strong competitors, it is normal to communicate with the director and screenwriter after the interview.

things.

Of course, this kind of thing is limited to actors who are already famous and have a certain degree of popularity. If a newcomer is looking for a director privately, I am afraid that it will give people the impression of being unrealistic at the first time, and then be blacklisted.

Zhang Taiyou is in his early forties, has a crew cut, and wears glasses. "The War of Money" is the first TV series he directed.

But he is not the kind of unknown director. On the contrary, several short films and documentaries directed by Zhang Taiyou have won many awards!

The reason why Lim Yoo-min specifically sought out Jang Tae-yo was because Kwon Eun-chan found out about the male lead of this TV series. He originally wanted Park Shin-yang, a powerful actor who became famous through "Lovers in Paris" in 2004.

Lin Youmin did not get into the topic straight to the point, but calmly chatted with Zhang Taiyou for a long time. Zhang Taiyou was thinking in his heart. He saw Lin Youmin's performance that day. To be honest, his acting skills were very good.

Not bad! But that doesn’t mean he will give this role to him. Acting skills don’t mean everything!

Factors such as understanding of the character, temperament, tacit understanding with other actors, mental state, etc. are all factors that Zhang Taiyou has to consider.

"Lin Youminxi, I agree with your understanding of this role, and your acting skills are great, but words and actions are often two different things, not to mention that you are currently on a filming mission for a TV series." After a long silence, Zhang Taiyou said.

"I don't think I can express myself well by starring in two TV series without interruption... The character of Gennaro has both the evil of society and the justice that is inherent in human beings. He is a very contradictory character.

"Playing this role requires a certain amount of experience..." Zhang Taiyou tried to make his words sound more tactful.

To put it bluntly, I just don’t believe that Lin Youmin has enough acting skills and energy to handle this role.

"We have initially decided that Park Xinyang will play the male lead..."

Lin Youmin's audition was also personally assessed by Zhang Taiyou. Although he was very satisfied with Lin Youmin's acting skills, in terms of image and appearance, Park Xinyang was undoubtedly more suitable!

Although he is a nominally "new" director and has never filmed a TV series, the SBS TV station and the production company still give full power to choose characters to Jang Tae Yoo, which shows that they have a lot of trust in his abilities.

Lin Youmin was not discouraged when he heard Zhang Taiyou's answer.

"I'm confident that my acting skills are not much worse than Park Xinyangxi's, and...I'm much cheaper than him!" Lin Youmin said confidently, throwing out his trump card.

Korean actors are generally more modest and respectful in their behavior, and they generally don't say things like who is worse than me.

But there are exceptions to everything. At this time, you obviously need to be confident and even a little arrogant to impress the director. Otherwise, if you yourself think you are not as good as your competitors, why would you let the director choose you?

As for another point, Kwon Eun-chan finally found out about the remuneration issue, which is taboo in the entertainment industry!

Lin Youmin is very popular and has good acting skills, but lacks accumulation, so his salary is barely at the bottom of the first-line actors. In other words, he is very cost-effective!

Zhang Taiyou obviously paused, and his eyes became solemn. He didn't know where Lin Youmin knew this issue, but Lin Youmin's words undoubtedly directly touched his heart.

Since the news of Bae Yong Joon's astonishing salary of more than 100 million yuan was exposed, it not only caused shock in the entertainment industry, but also caused many top actors who thought they were not inferior to Bae Yong Joon to choose to hide themselves behind closed doors.

This is not only related to your wallet, but also your status in the circle. If you go to film a TV series at this time, you will definitely be compared by the media!

This has resulted in the dilemma that most top actors will not be filming TV series in a short period of time and are insulated from it.

At the same time, even many front-line actors expressed their dissatisfaction openly or covertly and demanded an increase in pay. If they were not worried about public opinion, they would have gone on strike collectively.

This put the investors and directors who were preparing at the same time into an embarrassing situation.

Park Xinyang's agency is no exception. When Zhang Taiyou enthusiastically extended the invitation, the agency's response was simple: If there is no salary of 100 million, there is no need to discuss it!

They don't think that Park Xinyang will be worse than Bae Yongjun. Even if it is a little inferior, compared with the rumored sky-high price of 200 million, this is already kind!
