Chapter 620: Excited Li Renyong

Hearing this, Li Renyong stood up immediately.

He said excitedly: "What did you say? What's your name?"

Everyone was stunned by him, not knowing why he was so excited.

Can you not be excited?

He directed the film "Joint Security Area".

In later generations, Park Chan-wook became very famous and a world-class director, known as the "Great Wizard of Korea."

Because his movies are always a little weird.

The film is rich in intellectual reflection and exploration of human nature.

At this point in time, he should be only 25 years old, at the prime of his youth.

It will take a few years for them to emerge and become powerful, and become someone that people look up to.

His status in the Korean director industry is roughly the same as Lee Chang-dong's. Neither is better than the other, it's just that their styles are slightly different.

Paula gently tugged on his clothes and said, "Ayong, sit down quickly."

Ma Richeng said, "My name is Park Chan-wook, why are you so excited?"

Li Renyong calmed down and said directly, "I plan to ask him to direct "Joint Security Area"."

Lee Chang-dong was surprised and asked, "You're planning to use him? He just had a conflict with the previous crew and was banned."

Ma Richeng also advised: "Yes, if you use him, your relationship with some people will become strained. Also, if he directs, what will happen to Cangdong?"

Li Renyong waved his hand and said, "Uncle Changdong is the chief director, so Park Chan-wook can be the first executive director."

Lee Chang-dong was speechless.

Is Ayong drunk to let a young man who just graduated be the first executive director?
What is the first executive director?
When the chief director is not around, the entire crew has to listen to him alone.

It’s ridiculous.

Lee Chang-dong put down his glass and said, "Ayong, this movie, Joint Security Area, is about whether you can be exempted from military service. You must be careful."

Li Renyong smiled and said, "You can let him try. Besides, you are the one who is in charge. Even if we don't let him try, we can talk to him first. You are the director, so it's up to you to decide whether to use him or not?"

This is a soft word.

Not only Lee Chang-dong was shocked by what he said just now, but even Jung Nam-joo opened her mouth.

Being promoted from an assistant director to the first executive director is like going on a summer vacation abroad and becoming a five-star general when you come back.

Too outrageous.

Ma Richeng was still trying to persuade him: "Ayong, do you really want to use him? If you use him, you will have to compete with Liu Zhenying and his gang."

What are people in the entertainment industry fighting for?
Besides honor, it's face.

I just banned him and you used him. That's simply disrespectful to me.

People in the entertainment industry are in a circle, so they still have to maintain at least some face.

You never know when you'll need my help.

Li Renyong said with great courage: "Uncle Ma, you have a narrow vision. Our target is the TV station, why should we be afraid of them? Besides, don't we still have a public relations department?"

The public relations department’s big talk is not just for show.

I can even tell you that the dead are alive.

Ma Richeng said unwillingly, "Aren't you afraid that this person will quarrel with us? What if he accuses us of plagiarism?"

Li Renyong smiled and said, "What I can give him is justice. If he wants honor, he can get it himself. The more capable he is, the more I welcome him. If he is unreasonable, it won't be too late for us to ban him."

Given the company's current size, it would be too easy to ban a director who has just graduated.

Ma Richeng thought for a while and said, "Okay, if you are not afraid, why should I be afraid?"

Li Renyong asked, "Where is he now? Can we find him tonight?"

Zheng Nanzhu was a little unhappy.

Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you just have a good dinner?

However, he still said, "If you have his phone number, you can notify him to come over. We can have a meal together. It's always better to discuss things at home than outside."

Paula kicked Li Renyong and said, "No matter how urgent it is, there is no need to rush for one or two days. Let's have a good meal and chat tonight."

Li Renyong reacted and said, "Yes, come on, drink."

The words were full of happiness.

Now that the director has been found, are the actors far behind?

Lee Chang-dong raised his glass and said, "We're out of wine, what are we going to drink?" Jung Nam-joo stood up and said, "How can we be out of wine? I know you like wine, so I have some at home. Wait a minute, I'll go get it."

Soon, Zheng Nanzhu took out five bottles of soju.

There is also red wine, but Lee Chang-dong prefers soju.

Soju has a low alcohol content, so she estimated that five bottles should be enough.

The atmosphere on the field became increasingly intense.

Li Renyong was in a very happy mood and drank too much without realizing it.

There were five people, or four to be exact, and Paula didn't drink.

A total of eight bottles of soju were consumed.

Everyone else was fine, except Li Renyong who drank too much.

The night is low and the stars are shining.

Li Renyong leaned on Paula, with an unconcealable smile on his lips.

This time, it’s stable.

But this red wine has a strong aftertaste, and it feels like I didn’t drink much.

Paula supported him, with a look of worry and a hint of blame in it.

Everyone says to drink less, but I still get drunk.

"Ayong, hold on tight, we are going out."

The bodies of drunk people are very heavy, and Li Renyong's steps were a little unsteady.

Paula's arms trembled slightly due to bearing the weight, and beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, perhaps due to the heat or other factors.

Seeing this, Zheng Nanzhu offered to help share the burden.

"Paula, let me help you."

As he said this, he was about to hold Li Renyong's arm.

Paula took a step towards the door without leaving a trace and said, "Thank you, Sister Nanzhu. I can do it."

Lee Chang-dong took a glance and shook his head in amusement.

"Let me do it. I'm stronger."

Paula immediately said, "Okay, thank you Uncle Li."

Wow, your expression changes so quickly.

Caught off guard!

Everyone worked together to send Li Renyong into the car, and then everyone went home.

Zheng Nanzhu specifically reminded everyone to be careful on the road and to have dinner together again if they had the chance.

Paula said she would definitely send Li Renyong home safely.

……

Kim Sun-young's home.

Fenghuangtang is repairing the DVD player skillfully.

In addition to these, he can also repair VCRs, broken water pipes, and televisions.

Much better than President Kim.

I saw him fiddling with the socket of the DVD player, looking at the circuit board, and after confirming that there were no problems, he closed the cover.

Little Pearl next to her was holding a rag doll in her hand.

Big eyes, staring without blinking.

As he tightened the screws with a screwdriver, Fenghuangtang laughed and shouted, "Ding-ding!"

Little Pearl also shouted: "Dangdang."

Fenghuangtang stood up and put the DVD player back in its place.

"Sunyoung, everything is fine."

Jin Shanying came out of the kitchen and said with a smile: "So fast, you are good at cooking, brother."

Fenghuangtang lowered his head and picked up little Pearl from the ground in his arms.

"Our Pearl can watch cartoons now."
