Chapter 790 Good-looking
"what?"
Chi Jingyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard Li Chenghuan say this. He thought something bad had happened, but when he saw his brother's face that was obviously suppressing his joy, he immediately reacted and blinked and looked at him: "Why, brother is finally going to get a promotion?"
"……Hahaha."
After showing off for a long time, Chi Jingyuan instantly exposed him. Li Chenghuan didn't pretend anymore and laughed out loud with narrowed eyes: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."
Seeing his agent who was obviously in a good mood, Chi Jingyuan also laughed.
This brother has been EXO's agent since before their debut, and it has been more than four years now. Apart from force majeure events such as group members leaving the group themselves, there have been basically no major problems over the years. Those scandals involving illegal activities have absolutely nothing to do with EXO.
For the past four years, the only person he has been in a relationship with is Byun Baekhyun. It has to be said that this has something to do with Lee Seung-hwan's management. It can be said that this agent has done a very good job.
And judging by EXO's achievements over the years, as the main agent, he should have been promoted long ago.
What makes Chi Jingyuan most satisfied is that one good thing about this brother is that he will adjust the way he gets along with the members according to their growth and personality.
In the beginning, he was very strict in management and was quite serious. However, as the members grew older and gained more popularity and confidence, he gradually became more friendly and stopped using a high-pressure approach to manage the artists.
I had heard last year that he was going to be promoted, but for some reason it was delayed until now.
"Where did you get promoted?"
Chi Jingyuan asked with a smile.
In fact, Chi Jingyuan was a little reluctant to let Lee Seung-hwan stop being his manager. After all, they had worked together for so many years and got along very well...
But isn't the ultimate goal of working hard in a company to get a promotion and a raise? An agent can't do the job for a lifetime, so you should be happy for him.
"I will be transferred to the Operation and Resources Department as the Deputy Minister, which is related to the operation of artists and the allocation of resources..."
After introducing the new position with a happy look, Li Chenghuan seemed to remember something and his expression became playful. He raised an eyebrow at Chi Jingyuan and said, "Red Velvet will be in charge... Don't worry, I know your situation. If you need anything, just call me. I will help you take care of Irene."
"Forehead……"
It's not surprising that Lee Seung-hwan knew that Ji Kyung-won and Bae Joo-hyun were dating before. He was actually very aware of all the bad things about Park Chanyeol... But this guy didn't seem to know that the two of them had broken up, and Ji Kyung-won was a little speechless when he heard this.
But he didn't say anything like 'we've broken up' or 'she has nothing to do with us now, no need to take special care of her'. He hesitated for a moment, but still smiled shyly: "Then I'll trouble you, brother."
"Haha, let's not talk about this." Li Chenghuan waved his hand generously.
After chatting for a while in a good atmosphere, Chi Jingyuan remembered something and asked curiously, "By the way, who is our new main agent?"
"Head of the Agents Department, An Chengyuan, will be your main agent from now on. A notice should be issued in a few days."
Knowing what Chi Jingyuan was worried about, Li Chenghuan took the initiative to introduce him: "He is a person with a good personality and is easy to get along with... I even think he is a little soft."
As he said this, he smiled mischievously: "And even if he has a bad personality... but you are here, Jingyuan, you will make his personality better."
The implication in the words was so obvious that it was almost as if he was accusing him of his royal identity.
But Chi Jingyuan had a bitter face when he heard this, and he shouted innocently:
"What are you talking about, brother? I am well-known throughout the company for my politeness and my sense of duty."
"Hahahahaha."
…………
"Will this make our country's fashion culture fully integrated with the mainstream European fashion circle? Will it reach world-class standards?"
"..."
Hearing this question made Chi Jingyuan hesitate for a moment, and he secretly complained madly in his heart.
Faced with this, it seems a little
Facing the reporter from the Chosun Ilbo who seemed to be completely clueless, Chi Jingyuan still carefully organized his words and replied with a gentle smile:
"The concept of fashion is very broad. It can be reflected in clothing, hairstyle, personality and interpersonal relationships. It is not something that can be easily quantified. There is no accurate framework for classification. I think being able to do your best is the best fashion... and the fashion culture and industry of the Peninsula itself are very excellent. I am also honored to hope to play a certain role in promoting it through this opportunity."
After returning to Seoul for a meeting, Chi Jingyuan began to engage in numerous interviews. Except for taking a nap at night to adjust to the jet lag, he has not stopped. The enthusiasm accumulated by the local media on the peninsula during the Fashion Week was really too much for him to bear.
I have been busy for two days and participated in more than ten interviews of various sizes. Finally, the last and most crucial interview with the Chosun Ilbo is left.
However, he felt deeply exhausted by this media that had some official interest and the questions asked by various media magazines in the past two days.
These media always like to talk about big things, often using terms like "the entire fashion field", "cultural integration", "the entire nation" and so on. The bigger the better, as if Chi Jingyuan's becoming the spokesperson for a top luxury brand has opened the door to the European fashion circle and will allow the local fashion industry on the peninsula to develop rapidly. Anyway, it seems that the bigger and more general the exaggeration, the happier the nation will be when they see it.
But...it seems to be correct.
Faced with these grand topics, Chi Jingyuan tried his best to organize his words and speak more appropriately. On the surface, he said a lot of meaningless words for a long time, but he felt extremely helpless in his heart.
I am just an idol. What does the development of Peninsula’s fashion culture have to do with me?
"Then what suggestions does Jingyuanxi have for the future development of our country's fashion culture?"
"Forehead……"
…………
"It's finally over..."
After finishing the interview, Chi Jingyuan slumped down in his seat in the nanny car, wishing he could scream to the sky. He took a long breath and then asked again as if to confirm, "There will be no more interviews like this next time, right?"
"This is the last interview with Chosun Ilbo..."
Get rid of it. Looking at Chi Jingyuan, Park Jae-hyun shook his head with a smile on his face and said, "Stop complaining. Other artists can't even ask for your popularity and treatment."
"But after I came..."
Looking out the window, Chi Jingyuan said philosophically: "It feels different."
"Don't be crazy..." Park Jae-hyun directly signaled his assistant Choi Ji-chang to drive: "Let's go, eat something first, and then go directly to the crew."
"Next month, the crew of Goblin will go to Canada to shoot on location. I have urged you several times in the past few days to arrange your schedule."
The crew of "Goblin" has just been filming in Seoul, shooting indoor scenes in the villa shared by the male lead Kim Jung and the second male lead Wang Li.
As a ghost who has lived for hundreds of years and is rich enough to rival a country, the house where Jin Quan lives must be very capable. Both the area and the decoration must be in line with his status. An ordinary luxurious house is really not worthy of his status.
So the crew spent a lot of time choosing the villa for filming. Both Lee Eung-bok and Kim Eun-sook had very high requirements for the hardware and scenery, and they searched for a long time but never saw a villa they liked.
Kim Eun-sook, who had an experience in filming "The Heirs", was ready to ask Ji Kyung-won for help. When she was about to speak, the crew suddenly found a more suitable location, the famous "Dongguk Western House".
'Dongguk House' was originally part of the historic Unhyeon Palace and was built by Japan in 1912 to appease the Joseon royal family. It was later sold to Deoksung Women's University and is now an office building of the Deoksung Women's University Jongno campus.
The entire building adopts Renaissance architectural techniques. Whether it is the area, decoration, or style, it very much meets the requirements of the crew. The once popular "Palace" was also filmed here... Unfortunately, the crew required a long time to rent it for filming, and the owner was unwilling to rent it. The producer and director went to negotiate several times but to no avail.
In the end, it was Ji Jingyuan and tvN who stepped in together to resolve the matter. This was also one of the reasons why Ji Jingyuan was treated preferentially by several main creative staff members in the crew... However, other people in the crew were not aware of the twists and turns involved. They only knew that it was with the help of the TV station that they got the right to film.
The address is in Jongno District, close to Gyeongbokgung Palace and not far from Gangnam District. After lunch, Chi Jingyuan and his group quickly arrived at the crew. After greeting a few peripheral staff members, Chi Jingyuan stood in front of this luxurious building.
The black brick roof and the white house body have turned grayish-yellow over time. The high-rise arc-shaped door shows the classical flavor. In order to accommodate the drama crew, two beams, two lights and a combination lock were added to the door, adding some modern charm.
To be honest, even he couldn't find many places more suitable than this place. This Dongguo Mansion was even more luxurious than his home, and it was full of connotation and artistic sense, which was very suitable for an old monster like Jin Luan who had lived for hundreds of years.
"Jingyuan is back~"
As soon as Chi Jingyuan returned to the crew, he was immediately discovered. Many people greeted him enthusiastically. Li Yingfu, who was originally talking to the crew, immediately brightened up and waved to Chi Jingyuan from a distance. After he came closer, he looked at him and exclaimed with an exaggerated and greasy face:
"Oh my god, the fashion savior of Peninsula is back."
Chi Jingyuan smiled shyly, and also flattered me with admiration: "Ani, how can a fashion savior compare to me, a film and television savior?"
But Li Yingfu didn't dare to respond to such a big name, and quickly waved his hand to deny it, "Ah Xi, don't dare to say that."
"Hahaha……"
Although he had been away from the crew for several days, the creative staff did not seem dissatisfied... because Chi Jingyuan's schedule had been agreed upon in advance, and his popularity on Peninsula in recent days was obvious to all. The higher the popularity of the male lead, the greater the benefit to the show.
He greeted the main creative staff and actors to express his return. After chatting for a few words, Chi Jingyuan did not disturb the filming and watched the filming quietly from the side.
While he was away, the crew had been filming scenes with the second male lead, Wang Li, and other leading actors, including some of Bae Suzy's own scenes... This woman is currently filming in another sub-crew and is not here.
Although Chi Jingyuan came back, his scenes were not filmed in the afternoon. All the scenes were planned in advance, and the crew didn't know when he would come in the afternoon, so they arranged his scenes in the evening.
Just as Ji Jingyuan was watching the performance of Lee Dong Wook and Lu Xingcai, and was a little dazed and distracted, someone suddenly patted his shoulder, a fragrant breeze blew, and a tickling sound came to his ear.
"You're back?"
When he turned around, he saw Bae Suzy standing behind him with a smile on her face. She had a fair and innocent face and was clinging to him in a playful manner.
The sincere and seemingly heartfelt surprise on her face was quite satisfying... But Chi Jingyuan, who was suddenly startled, didn't give her a good look, and seemed to be a little disdainful of her nonsense: he rolled his eyes and said, "I didn't come back."
"I'm not back."
"..."
Pei Xiuzhi, who was smiling, froze when she heard the words. She secretly curled her lips and felt helpless. Why was she like a little child... But the corners of her mouth were raised very beautifully. She stared at Chi Jingyuan up and down with her eyes, as if she was visiting some fashion items.
"I feel like you've become more handsome."
After walking around in a circle, Bae Suzy made some surprised comments.
"It's hard to increase handsomeness after reaching a certain level."
Chi Jingyuan was not fooled by this woman's tricks. He pointed to the stool next to him and said, "Don't look at it. Keep your voice down... Find a place to sit by yourself."
"Want me to sit next to you?"
"stay away from me."
"Is this far enough?~"
Feeling the slight body temperature and clear fragrance coming from a close distance, Chi Jingyuan's nose moved slightly, and he looked back, wanting to find out where this woman's agent was, but he didn't care...
"How did you feel about the GUCCI fashion show?" Bae Suzy couldn't wait to ask after sitting down.
"It's not like you haven't participated before, why are you pretending to be a novice... It's okay, this year's event is quite interesting."
“The shows of ordinary brands are different from those of GUCCI.”
Bae Suzy sat next to him. Ji Jingyuan no longer had time to watch Lee Dong Wook filming. He started chatting in a low voice with Bae Suzy, who was dressed surprisingly pure today.
As he was talking, he remembered something, patted his head, and took the shoulder bag that was placed aside: "By the way, here are the things I brought for you."
As soon as these words came out, Bae Suzy's eyes lit up and she looked at Chi Jingyuan's actions with great anticipation.
She only saw him rummaging in his bag for a while and taking out an exquisite jewelry box. However, he did not hand it to her directly. Instead, he glanced around without leaving any trace and observed the movements of the people around him before he felt relieved and quickly handed it to her.
Pei Xiuzhi grabbed it and opened it. At the same time, Chi Jingyuan's voice came to her ear: "A necklace, the latest product promoted this season... You want a gift, I think this one is more suitable for you."
After opening the jewelry box, she saw a very neatly arranged silver necklace. The chain body was shiny white, with the iconic GUCCI logo on the main chain, surrounded by a circle of crystal gems.
"How did you know I like this style of necklace?"
Although there were too many luxury goods and various necklaces and jewelry at home to wear, Bae Suzy still looked at the gifts in her hands happily, said with surprise, and couldn't help touching them.
After enjoying the cool touch for a while, she suddenly turned to look at Chi Jingyuan, blinked her big eyes, and smiled beautifully: "Will you put it on me?"
"You're crazy, there are so many people around."
Hearing this nonsensical request, Chi Jingyuan glanced at the side reflexively, and found that the two of them were in a relatively remote position and there were not many people around, so he frowned and glanced at her with disdain:
"Put it away yourself."
"Hee~"
Bae Suzy didn't care about his look at all. Instead, she tilted her head and winked at Chi Jingyuan with a playful smile.
Then she closed the jewelry box and held it in her hand, then stood up, turned her back to the crew, and gave Chi Jingyuan a big wink:
"Okay, there's a magazine shoot later, I'm leaving now."
Looking at Bae Suzy's back, who turned around and left less than ten minutes after arriving, Chi Jingyuan didn't know what to say.
So you came here just to see me?
…………
In the evening, on the bright makeup cart, Bae Suzy was sitting in front of the dressing table, quietly letting Cody behind her put the finishing touches on her makeup.
Her temperament and makeup had changed a lot compared to before. The pure look before had completely disappeared. The student-style obedient hair that matched Ji Eun-tak's positioning had now turned into unbridled big wavy curls dyed dark brown. The originally plain and light makeup on her face had become much more colorful. The most eye-catching thing was the bright red lips like roses. The rich red radiated brilliantly under the light.
This woman really has a natural talent for makeup, and she can handle both pure and beautiful looks very well.
At this time, the styling was almost done. Cody was standing behind her doing the final check. Bae Suzy looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes first swept over her face, and then focused on her exposed white neck. The necklace that reflected the light, the diamond next to the GUCCI logo on the main chain was very eye-catching.
"Unnie, do you think it looks good?"
As she watched, Bae Suzy lifted her red lips and suddenly laughed, then asked through the mirror to the familiar sister Cody behind her.
I don't know whether she was asking about Yan or the necklace.
"Of course she's pretty. Among all the artists that Ouni has worked with, Suzy's looks are truly top notch. My Suzy Qingjia is so pretty."
Cody didn't notice Bae Suzy's look just now, but he didn't think about it at all and praised her sincerely.
That's what she thought.
"You think it looks good too, Unnie?"
Hearing Cody say this, Bae Suzy shook her slightly curly bangs and smiled with satisfaction, feeling happy as if she had been recognized.
"I feel so too."
As she spoke, she picked up the phone in front of her, turned on the camera, and found the right angle so that the lens could just cover her face, neck, collarbone and necklace. With her red lips slightly parted, she took a few seductive selfies.
Then she logged into her Instagram account, carefully selected two photos that she was most satisfied with, and clicked publish.
"It's such a beautiful sight, it would be a shame not to commemorate it."
