In the private room of a Chinese restaurant, Xu Zhixuan was holding the menu and ordering dishes for the waiter. "You actually have eggplants in this restaurant during this season? Then give me a braised eggplant, and then a sweet and sour pork ribs, shredded pork with garlic sauce, and spicy shredded potatoes. What soup do you want to drink? "
Hearing Xu Zhixuan's inquiry, the other three shook their heads and replied, "You decide. We don't know how to cook!"
"Well, then give me a radish beef brisket soup. It warms the stomach and nourishes the blood. It's most suitable for this season. You have to make it authentic. Don't think that I'm easy to fool just because I'm a foreigner. I want the original!" The last sentence was said in Chinese because he could tell that the waiter might be Chinese. There was no other reason. After all, he had written Chinese on the menu.
The waiter was stunned and said in surprise, "Hey, you're Chinese?"
"No, I studied Chinese in university. How about it? Authentic, right?" Xu Zhixuan's Mandarin was very standard.
The waiter heard that Xu Zhixuan was not Chinese, but it was rare to meet a Korean who could speak Chinese. One had to know that he worked in this restaurant. Other than the boss, who was also the chef of this restaurant, he was the only Chinese. After a long drought, he met an old friend in a foreign land. Although Xu Zhixuan was not Chinese, he could speak Chinese, and it was so authentic. He had a good impression of him and said, "Alright, don't worry. I guarantee that you will return with a full load!"
"Well, then hurry up!"
After the waiter left, Choi Ho-woon asked curiously, "Brother, you can speak Chinese?"
"What's so surprising about that? Haven't you read my information? What kind of agent are you? "Xu Zhixuan rolled his eyes at Choi Ho-woon. Did he have to tell you that he was Chinese in his previous life?
Lim Yoon-jin raised her hand and shouted, "I know this. I've seen the information on the website. It says that he graduated from the Chinese Department of the Faculty of Oriental Studies at the Korean Foreign Studies University!"
"That's great. It will be much more convenient for me to enter the Chinese market in the future. You don't know that the celebrities in our country are now squeezing into China and Japan. They can casually go through the motions and get a lot of money in their pockets."
Looking at Choi Ho-woon's excited expression, Xu Zhixuan comforted him. As a Chinese in his previous life, how could he not know the scene when the Korean wave hit China? Those Korean celebrities, as long as they knew a few greetings, such as "Hello," "Thank you," or "I am XXX," they would be loved by the Chinese. If they said "I love China," it would be even crazier. For example, there was a female celebrity surnamed Zhang who fell in love with a man surnamed He. It was as if it was an international incident, and it was widely spread in China.
"Don't worry, I'm a professional. My Mandarin is very fluent. Uh, you don't understand. It means that my Mandarin is very good. People who don't know me will think that I'm a Chinese. When the time comes, we will definitely go to the Chinese market."
As a Chinese, he was a Korean in this life. Although Xu Zhixuan went to China after he retired from the army to look for his previous life, there was no sign of this person at all. There were two people who looked like his parents, but unfortunately, their names were not the same. At one point, Xu Zhixuan suspected that he might have come to a parallel universe on Earth.
However, if there was a chance to go to China as a celebrity, Xu Zhixuan would be more than willing. The famous Hegemon of Western Chu, Xiang Yu, said, "Wealth and honor do not return to the hometown. It is like embroidery at night. Who knows?" Of course, the premise was that Xu Zhixuan made a name for himself. Otherwise, it would be useless no matter how good his thoughts were.
"Jiang Shilong, why have you been sitting there silently since you entered the restaurant? It's not like you. " Lim Yoon-Jin suddenly seemed to have discovered a new continent. She touched Jiang Shilong's forehead and asked curiously.
"Ya, what are you touching? I'm just thinking about something!" Jiang Shilong slapped away Lim Yoon-Jin's hand with dissatisfaction.
"What are you thinking about? You are so lost in thought. "
Xu Zhixuan also asked curiously. It was really hard for Jiang Shilong to stop talking. Today was really a bit strange.
Jiang Shilong felt a little guilty in his heart, but for the sake of the white Korean won, he still won over his rationality. He replied indifferently, "Nothing, I'm thinking about some things in the fashion industry. You don't understand!"
Xu Zhixuan only nodded and didn't care. At this time, the phone rang. Xu Zhixuan took it out and saw that it was Lee Jung-bum calling. He happily picked it up and said, "Brother, do you have good news for me?"
"En, not bad. Zhixuan, if there are no accidents, someone will inform YG Company in a few days to sign a contract with you for the role of Cha Tae-shih. I'm informing you in advance. You have to treat us!"
Xu Zhixuan cheered in his heart and said sweetly, "Brother, look at what you're saying. Just for the sake of helping me get this role, you didn't hesitate to offend the producers. How can I, as your brother, not be touched? In short, if you need my help in the future, just let me know. As for the treat, you can choose any five-star hotel in Korea! "
"En, it's good that you have the heart. After the movie release, just find any restaurant to treat me. I'm not picky!"
"Brother, look at what you're saying. Isn't this a slap to my face? Don't worry, I don't lack money!"
Lee Jung-bum smiled in his heart. He was very satisfied with Xu Zhixuan's attitude. Although part of the reason he found Xu Zhixuan to play this role was to thank Xu Zhixuan for taking care of him in the past, Xu Zhixuan was very suitable for this role. With his identity as a special forces soldier, he didn't have to worry about action scenes.
"Okay, you stay at home these few days to figure out this role. I'll be late. See you at the movie release!"
"En, okay. Brother, you go ahead!"
After Xu Zhixuan heard the beeping sound after the phone hung up, he cheered happily and said, "Yes, I got this role. Brother Zhen Fan just called me and said that soon, he will inform the company to sign the contract!"
"Really? That's great! "
"Brother, I told you you're the best!"
"Yes... yes! It's time to celebrate! " Although Jiang Shilong's face was full of smiles, his heart was bitter. He didn't know if he was doing the right thing. But he had already taken the first step and couldn't back down.
"I'll call President Yang Xianshuo right now to inform him and make him happy!" Choi Ho-woon was a little excited as he pulled out his phone and prepared to call Yang Xianshuo. Xu Zhixuan had really opened up the movie scene for YG Company. This had always been Yang Xianshuo's sore point.
In YG, in terms of movies or actors, only Gu Hye-shan was outstanding. In 2006, "The Innocence of 19 Years Old" was her famous work. In 2009, she starred as the female lead in "The Korean Version of Flower Man" and became an Asian Korean Wave star. But she only had some success in TV dramas. In terms of movies, there was indeed an actress named Zheng Huiying, but she was already married and couldn't help YG Company at all.
Not to mention, YG Company didn't have a single successful actor. So when they found out that Xu Zhixuan had returned to China, they couldn't wait to invite Xu Zhixuan to rejoin YG and return as an actor. First, they valued Xu Zhixuan's previous connections in the entertainment industry. Second, YG really didn't have an actor who could hold up the movie scene.
"President, good news. Zhixuan got the movie 'Lone Agent'!"
"What? Is that true? That's great. Where are you guys now? "
"Uh, we're eating!"
"Okay, let Xu Zhixuan rest at home for the next few days and figure out his role. Xu Zhixuan doesn't have to worry about the company's contract signing. YG's resources in this area will all be given to Xu Zhixuan. Let him act well and fight for his first big hit."
"Yes, okay! Don't worry, President. I'll supervise Zhixuan well! "
"Okay, that's all for now. I'm hanging up!"
"Yay!"
Xu Zhixuan ate the food that had just been served. When he saw Choi Ho-woon hang up, he asked, "How was it? What did Xianshuo bro say? "
"President said that the company's resources in this area will all be given to you. He told me to stay at home and figure out my role well and fight for my first big hit."
Hearing Choi Ho-woon's words, Xu Zhixuan pursed his lips disapprovingly and said, "Tsk, that sounds nice. It's all resources. Isn't it just publicity that can help me? Everything else is still up to me. No matter what, YG Company had the foundation that Huiyingnu and I laid down, but it still hasn't developed yet."
"This, the company also has its difficulties." Choi Ho-woon couldn't say anything. After all, Xu Zhixuan could say this because he had a good relationship with Yang Xianshuo. He was once a senior figure in the company. If he, as an employee, dared to speak ill of his boss behind his back, the consequences would be … hehe!
"Okay, stop talking. There are no outsiders here. Hurry up and eat. Otherwise, it won't taste good when it gets cold. Come, have some spicy potatoes. It'll whet your appetite! Shilong, don't just sit there. Here, have a bowl of radish and beef brisket soup. It'll warm your stomach on such a cold day! "
"Zhixuan, what about me? Why aren't you putting food in my bowl?" Lim Yoon-jin said coquettishly when she saw that Xu Zhixuan was putting food in Choi Ho-woon and Jiang Shilong's bowl, leaving her out.
Xu Zhixuan rolled his eyes at Lim Yoon-jin, but still put a piece of pork rib in her bowl. However, he said, "You can't stop talking. Do you still need me to remind you? Then, hurry up and eat. I really don't know where all the food you ate went! "
Lim Yoon-jin raised her head proudly and said, "That's because I was born beautiful!"
Looking at the two of them quarreling, Choi Ho-woon just smiled and continued eating. Jiang Shilong felt even more guilty. He didn't want to betray Xu Zhixuan, but unfortunately, because of money, he had to betray his conscience. He forced a smile and lowered his head to drink his soup.
