After resolving Xu Xian's worries and having a good dinner with his family, Xu Zhixuan got into Choi Ho-woon's nanny van early the next morning and headed to the set. Along the way, Xu Zhixuan kept asking about Lim Yoon-jin. An assistant should be by Xu Zhixuan's side at all times, but she was fine. Other than following him closely at the beginning, she was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Lim Yoon-jin? Why haven't I seen her recently? "
Choi Ho-woon drove and answered without turning his head, "That girl is very smart. She knows what she should do. After you joined the set, she ran to the company and applied to follow some experienced assistants to learn how to be a real assistant!"
"Didn't she come to learn how to be an agent from you? Why did she go to learn that? " Xu Zhixuan frowned slightly and looked at Choi Ho-woon with a little doubt. After all, he was the one who said that the company sent Lim Yoon-jin over in hopes that Choi Ho-woon would teach the newcomer and help her become an agent.
Choi Ho-woon didn't see Xu Zhixuan's frown and still answered calmly, "Brother, if you want to be an agent, you must first learn how to be a qualified assistant. It can be said that the predecessor of an agent is an assistant."
"Then she can still learn by your side. Why go to other people to suffer?" Xu Zhixuan still couldn't figure it out. Could it be that she couldn't learn by his side and instead ran to other artists? Who knew if she would be abused? Not everyone was as good-tempered as Xu Zhixuan.
Choi Ho-woon smiled bitterly and saw Xu Zhixuan's confused expression from the rearview mirror. He had to answer with a bitter face, "Brother, it's all because of you!" Xu Zhixuan was puzzled. How did it involve me again? He pointed at himself and said, "Because of me?"
Choi Ho-woon nodded and said, "Yes, brother. Your personality caused you to treat us equally. To put it bluntly, you don't care about trifles. Some things that should be done by an assistant, you finished them yourself. How can Yunzhen learn to be an assistant?"
Hearing Choi Ho-woon's explanation, Xu Zhixuan immediately shook his head and sighed with a bitter face, "I didn't expect that my personality was the main culprit!"
"Bro, actually, don't think too much about it. With your personality, if those managers or assistants knew about it, they would be more than happy to work with you. You have to know that some artists are already under a lot of pressure, so they would often vent their frustrations on the people around them. It's still fine if it's a manager, as even the big shots would take into account the company's impression of them. But it's a tragedy for the assistants and makeup artists around them. They've all become the artists' vents, and they can't even speak of their suffering."
Perhaps it was because Choi Ho-woon had also experienced this, so when he said these words, there was a trace of bitterness in the corner of his mouth. This made Xu Zhixuan realize that the entertainment industry had changed a lot compared to his time. In the past, the life and death of artists were in the hands of their managers. Some assistants were spies arranged by the company to monitor whether the artists were in a relationship, whether they violated the company's rules, and so on.
Moreover, the Korean entertainment industry in the 1990s was not much better than Hong Kong's. It was also full of gangs. Many entertainment companies had a dark nature, and they laundered money for the gangs. For YG to survive that time, it had to be said that Yang Xianshuo was lucky to have recruited Xu Zhixuan, who was like the God of Death in the eyes of the Seoul gangs. He was afraid that his gang would be targeted by Xu Zhixuan and destroyed.
For example, in the 2007 news, the Korean artist Kwon Sang-woo was threatened by gangs that had infiltrated the Korean entertainment industry. The Central Procuratorate of Seoul, South Korea, sued Kwon Sang-woo's manager, Mr. Baek, the representative of his former management company, Mr. Han, and the leader of a criminal organization, Kim Tae-cun. It was alleged that Mr. Baek had become Kwon Sang-woo's manager through intimidation, Mr. Han had blackmailed Kwon Sang-woo, and Kim Tae-cun had threatened Kwon Sang-woo to perform in Japan. The Korean court would make the final judgment on this matter today.
It could be said that after that incident, the status of managers had dropped a lot. Not to mention the assistants who were originally sent by the company to monitor the artists. Therefore, after being suppressed for a long time, some artists who had gained power would return the favor to the arrogant managers who had wantonly bullied them.
"Don't tell me the company doesn't care?"
Choi Ho-woon sneered, "Care? How? Back then, the company ordered us to do it. However, that year's news about Kwon Sang-woo caused the manager's status to plummet. In order to appease the celebrities, the company had to push us out to take the blame! "
Xu Zhixuan heard this and sighed. He could not help with this matter. This was already a phenomenon in the entertainment industry. It was just like when he established the Antipressure Society. The younger generation had been bullied and humiliated by their seniors for too long. Once they gained power, they began to fight back. At that time, if the Antipressure Society was not only formed by a few schools, and Xu Zhixuan was suppressing it, the consequences could be imagined.
With a gloomy mood, Xu Zhixuan arrived at the set. Seeing that the crew was busy moving out, Xu Zhixuan grabbed one of the crew members and asked, "What's wrong? Is the crew preparing to move? "
"Yes, because the director said that there might be heavy rain in the next few days, so we're moving to the next location!" The crew member was unhappy when he saw that someone had grabbed him. However, when he turned around and saw that it was Xu Zhixuan, his attitude immediately changed.
"Oh, then I'm sorry to disturb you. Go ahead!" Xu Zhixuan nodded and apologized to the crew member. Then, he left.
The person next to him was also a crew member. He was carrying a large object with the crew member who had been grabbed by Xu Zhixuan. Seeing that Xu Zhixuan was so polite to the crew members, he sighed and said, "To be honest, I've never seen an artist like Xu Zhixuan. He treats people like us equally!"
"That's right. Those small artists who think that they have a little fame are all arrogant to us. They order us around as they please. Sometimes, when they're unhappy, they even speak ill of us!" The crew member who had been grabbed by Xu Zhixuan also sighed.
Xu Zhixuan didn't know that his unintentional action had helped him in the future. Of course, this is a story for another time. Let's return to Xu Zhixuan's line of sight. When Xu Zhixuan knocked on the door of the waiting room, he stepped in and saw the director, assistant director, and main cast members in the waiting room. When he saw Xu Zhixuan enter, Lee Jung-bum heaved a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Xu Zhixuan didn't have enough time to deal with his personal matters. He also knew about Quan Zhilong's matter.
"Zhixuan, you're here? Is the matter settled? "
Xu Zhixuan nodded and sat down. He took a disposable cup from Kim Sai Lan, who had been sticking to him all this time. The cup was already filled with water. Drinking a cup of hot water on a cold day could make his body relax.
"Yes, it's settled. Why? Is the crew ready to move? Have you finished filming the scenes here? "
Lee Jung-bum nodded and asked the assistant director to go out and preside over the relocation. Then he replied, "Yes, we just finished filming yesterday. As for the rest, we just need to shoot the scene of you getting a haircut in the room. Since you're here, let's start!"
"Okay, let's go!"
Xu Zhixuan did not refuse. Originally, Lee Jung-bum had pushed some scenes to the back because of Xu Zhixuan's leave. Now that they were going to move to the next location, Xu Zhixuan did not want the crew to suffer because of him.
Walking into the building next door, Xu Zhixuan walked into a room that looked like a pawnshop. Xu Zhixuan was topless, revealing his eight packs of muscles. His tanned skin made the women in the film crew scream like they were infatuated with him. If it wasn't for Li Zhenfan's scolding, they would have probably received complaints from the other owners of the building. The makeup artist beside him held a blade and instructed, "You just need to cut the hair on both sides. We will trim the rest for you."
"Zhixuan, let's try to get it done in one shot. Otherwise, the effect won't be good if we rely on a wig!" Lee Jung-bum also reminded him.
"Okay, got it!"
Seeing that Xu Zhixuan understood, Lee Jung-bum said to the makeup artist, "Hurry up and put a blood-stained gauze on him."
After everything was ready, Lee Jung-bum shouted, "Action!" Xu Zhixuan instantly got into character. In fact, this scene was very simple. There were no unnecessary expressions. He just needed to show the temperament of a special agent. And this was precisely Xu Zhixuan's strength. After all, he was born in the special forces. This temperament was enough for him.
Xu Zhixuan looked at himself in the mirror. He held a small razor and cut the hair on his temples. He was very decisive and did not hesitate at all. This made Lee Jung-bum very satisfied behind the camera. This was exactly what he wanted.
"Cut! Very good. Makeup artist, go and help. Let's start the next scene! Zhixuan, maintain this mood. Don't let it dissipate! " Lee Jung-bum looked at the camera and quickly ordered the makeup artist to clean up the hair. At the same time, he reminded Xu Zhixuan.
“Action！”
Xu Zhixuan picked up the hair clipper, grabbed his long hair, and pushed it down. His gaze in the mirror became colder. It was as if Xu Zhixuan could see the person who kidnapped Millet in the mirror. And the smile he gave him when he left was still vivid in his mind.
Xu Zhixuan's performance in this scene was very good. Lee Jung-bum wanted this kind of fierce and emotionless gaze. He shouted excitedly, "Cut! Very good! Makeup artist, continue to clean up the hair. Xu Zhixuan, maintain it."
In the end, the hairdresser changed the hair's appearance. The hair that was originally cut by Xu Zhixuan was cleaned up into a short and handsome hairstyle. It changed the originally melancholy look.
“Action”
Xu Zhixuan pretended to push the sides of his hair a few times. In fact, the hairstyle here was already done by the hairdresser. He used his hands to pull out the loose strands of hair and sighed helplessly. He put on the black suit that the crew had prepared. He picked up the gun on the table and checked it. This was Xu Zhixuan's specialty. He took the gun apart and then put it back together.
Lee Jung-bum, who was behind the camera, was so excited that he clenched his fists. Xu Zhixuan's scene was really much better than the original scene of him checking the gun. By taking the gun apart like this, he could directly show the familiarity of a special agent with guns.
Suddenly, the phone in his pocket vibrated. Xu Zhixuan took it out. When he saw the caller ID, he frowned slightly and answered the call. He put the phone to his ear. This call was actually from Lee Jung-bum, who was saying his lines.
Xu Zhixuan was still expressionless, as if he was not surprised by the call. He did not express anything to the policeman who said that he wanted to catch him. When he mentioned Millet, there was a slight fluctuation in Xu Zhixuan's eyes. When he heard that Millet was still alive, Xu Zhixuan raised his head slightly and took a deep breath. It showed that Xu Zhixuan's heart was not calm at that moment.
After hearing that the police had information about Millet, he did not mind the questioning tone in the other party's voice. He replied calmly, "It was Wan Shi and Zong Shi! They sent things to Wu Mingkui and killed Song Xuanwu. That's all I know. "Then, without waiting for a reply, he hung up.
"Cut, very good. Zhixuan, your performance was great, especially the scene where you took the gun apart. Okay, we're done! This scene is done in one take. Let's quickly clean up and move on to the next set! "
Xu Zhixuan ignored Lee Jung-bum's words. He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, letting himself out of the state of being Che Taizhi. He had no choice. He was an actor who focused on experience, so the people around him did not disturb him.
