Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 453 Tang Wei
"Oppa, I was wrong. I was really wrong. I really didn't mean it. Please let me go. I was wrong about this."

Somi immediately started begging for mercy.
Somi occasionally heard about it.

She has always had close ties with LV, and the endorsement was progressing normally. She had some promotions and also received clothing and bags sponsored by Louis Vuitton.

But why did she feel a little scared when she heard that Quan Xuanhe was using this condition to threaten her?

Because she had witnessed Quan Xuanhe's methods.

Zhou Ziyu, who was stopped from contacting Louis Vuitton as early as last year, miraculously came back to life this year and started to engage in activities again. Louis Vuitton started to provide her with resources, and I heard that they even provided her with resources of the level of magazine covers.

Although magazines are divided into top, first-tier and second-tier magazines, to put it bluntly, giving people a rating is one thing, but when it comes to being featured, there is no such level of pick and choose. They are all high-end and famous fashion magazines, and most artists are considered lucky if they can be featured in one of them.

These serious magazine covers are not what you imagine as just any idol can appear on them. If you are not famous enough or strong enough, you can only get an inside page at most, and if you are stronger, you can only get a second-tier cover.

A certain top girl group can barely make it to the cover of a first-tier fashion magazine.

The magazine covers first feature models, then athletes, celebrities, actors, and finally idols.

We feel that it is not surprising that celebrities appear on the cover of fashion magazines frequently because fans only pay attention when idols appear on the cover, which leads to frequent recognition. However, we often overlook the fact that idols are not on the cover of fashion magazines most of the time.

Zhou Ziyu's strange resurrection and sudden improvement in resources and treatment are totally unlike the brand's style. There is no way they would go back to someone they have already given up on and determined to be of insufficient value. There must be something fishy behind this.

The trick is Quan Xuanhe!

Of course Somi knew that Kwon Hyun Hyuk and Chou Tzuyu had dated. As soon as Kwon Hyun Hyuk got the title of Louis Vuitton's global ambassador, Chou Tzuyu immediately took up the position and put it on the agenda.

There was a reason why her guess was so quick and clear.

This is the key.

Just now, Quan Xuanhe also exposed that she was in contact with Louis Vuitton, of course, she wanted to get the endorsement, and Quan Xuanhe is also the global ambassador of Louis Vuitton.
Everything seems to make sense.

Why else would she be so overly enthusiastic in approaching Quan Xuanhe? Was she really just offering him up for free?
If she were to date someone in the entertainment industry, what kind of guy wouldn't be able to get close to her with her qualifications? Why would she need to be so eager to please someone who didn't like her? Even if he was handsome, it wouldn't matter. They were all pretty much the same anyway, and she wasn't some die-hard love-brained person.

Just look at how good Quan Xuanhe is to his ex-girlfriend, giving her such rare fashion resources without hesitation.

He's a handsome guy anyway, so it's not a loss to date him. You'll also feel good about it. And if he can get some resources from you after dating him, you'll get a lot.

Who wouldn’t envy power and fame if they knew how to do it?

But after I learned that Quan Xuanhe had a girlfriend, I lost most of my interest in him, and the little plan in my mind was probably not going to work.

"Ah, so you've finally given in, huh?"

"Somi, Somi, you really ruined my good thing."

Quan Xuanhe laughed, and it was hard to tell what he meant, but it made Somi feel uneasy.

"I didn't mean to do that. Who knew Jisoo would react so strongly? And that Oppa and Jisoo are still so close?"

This was indeed beyond her expectations. She had only thought that the relationship was deep, but she had not expected it to be so deep.

"Now?"

Quan Xuanhe didn't want to listen to her rambling here, it was meaningless.

"Tell me first, how are you going to express your apology?"

"I"

No matter what, Somi was in the wrong.

"I apologize, Oppa, I'm sorry."

"Is saying sorry enough?"

Quan Xuanhe didn't react much.

"Then what do you want me to do, Oppa?"

"I need to see your sincerity through your performance."

Quan Xuanhe's laughter at this time made people feel a chill in their hearts, making Somi feel uneasy, and a feeling of being controlled came over her.

"Oppa won't do anything weird, right?"

For some reason, Somi clamped her legs together, swallowed, and hugged her arms across her chest, as if Quan Xuanhe was standing in front of her.

"First, start by being an obedient child."

Just as Somi thought, Tzuyu is now on the road to high luxury.

In a physical sense.

She is now preparing to shoot a magazine. This seems to be her first time to be on the cover of a magazine. She has only had group shoots before. This is truly her first time to be a young lady getting married.

"Tzuyu is going to shoot a magazine."

Son Chae-young seems to be a person who is not interested in worldly affairs. She doesn't care about Chou Tzu-yu's magazine shoot and even talked about it with a smile. Of course, it may also be that she has always been a marginal figure and is used to it.

"I'm leaving~"

Zhou Ziyu turned around and smiled at Son Chaeyoung, then walked out of the dormitory with ease.

After she got in the car, she remembered something and took out her cell phone and sent a message to Quan Xuanhe.

"I'm going."

"Now to the magazine shoot."

She knew very well who had given her these things. Since she had accepted them, she had to make corresponding changes. She couldn't just take the things and still be cold to him.

Just because she is a girl doesn't mean she can do whatever she wants.

Zhou Ziyu is a sensible girl who knows when to advance and when to retreat.

Seeing that he didn't reply to her message immediately, Zhou Ziyu put her phone aside for the time being, picked up the specific plan of the shoot at hand, opened it and started reading it again.

Magazine shooting is not something that can be done on a whim. Even shooting an advertisement involves repeated consultations between the planner and the artist. Magazine shooting involves repeated exchanges and discussions between the two teams.

Although this is just the cover of a second-tier magazine, let’s not worry about the issue of first-tier or second-tier. The question now is whether we can make a living from this.

She flipped through the pages for a long time, but it seemed like her mind wasn't on it, as if she was waiting for something.

When her cell phone vibrated, Zhou Ziyu immediately put down the plan and picked up the phone. Seeing that it was a message from Quan Xuanhe, she tapped it with her finger.

"Good shooting, come on!"

After seeing this message, Zhou Ziyu waited for a while. After waiting for such a long time, he only sent a message and there was no follow-up. She couldn't help but feel that his reaction was a bit too indifferent.

Zhou Ziyu puffed up her lips slightly, then gradually calmed down, thinking that he was just busy with work and didn't take it to heart.

In fact, today is the day when Quan Xuanhe officially made his decision to join the team and split up.

The script reading took place in the CJ building. The film was also invested by CJ, and Lee Mi-kyung was the producer.

The conference room was spacious and bright, with rows of tables and chairs arranged around the central table, seating approximately fifty people. Quan Xuanhe, a newcomer who debuted two years ago but was still relatively new, naturally arrived early.

After entering the venue, I first met Park Chan-wook and screenwriter Zheng Ruijing. After entering the door, I went up to say hello.

"Find your own seat and sit down."

Neither of them stood up. Park Chan-wook nodded at him in a gentle tone and gestured to him.

Behind him are some actors who are less famous than him and have smaller roles, and there are also some who came earlier than him.

Such as Gao Minshi, Park Jung Min who is considered an acquaintance, and Liu Taiwu who was previously a contender for the Blue Dragon New Actor Award. In addition, there are some actors who are not so well-known.

After seeing him come in, everyone nodded to him more or less. Among them, Park Zhengming, who had a good relationship with him, waved at him and nodded with a smile.

Actors came in one after another, and the real big event was the arrival of Tang Wei and Park Hae-il.

When Tang Wei, dressed simply and wearing light makeup, entered the venue, the atmosphere suddenly became much more lively. Even Park Chan-wook, who was quite arrogant, stood up and smiled to welcome her.

After all, Tang Wei was invited to act in this play.

Tang Wei bowed slightly, a smile on her face. She first greeted the director, and then faced the group of people including Quan Xuanhe, speaking in broken Korean, "Aniha Saiyo."

There was a person following behind her, who looked like a translator.

Koreans seem to be particularly tolerant of Tang Wei. Even when she brought a translator with her when she appeared on a variety show and did not speak Korean, not many people had any objections to it. Even when she talked about slightly sensitive topics such as the integration of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, she was tolerated by Koreans.

Why is this so.

Perhaps it is because the Korean film industry itself is dominated by men and has a shortage of women. There is an extreme lack of outstanding middle-aged actresses in the film industry. There are only a handful of movie actresses that can be counted on one hand. It is difficult for newcomers to get promoted, while old people are commonplace. There is no preference for subject matter, and there are only old movies everywhere. This is why there is a gap in the first place.

Tang Wei starred in a series of well-received works such as "Lust, Caution" and "Late Autumn". These good works cast a filter over Tang Wei, making her popular among filmmakers who pursue art. Her appearance was also loved by people on the peninsula, thus giving the Korean public a full sense of freshness.

It not only fills the gap, but also brings freshness and has a big star status. As a result, it is not surprising that it has a rare status in the peninsula.

"Ani-Asayo."

Just as Tang Wei was greeting in awkward Korean, Quan Xuanhe next to her spoke in Chinese that was familiar to her.

"Hello, I'm Quan Xuanhe."

Tang Wei looked him up and down with a surprised expression, her smile still lingering, her posture relaxed. "You can speak Chinese?"

“I went to school in China.”

Quan Xuanhe said with a smile.

In fact, Tang Wei doesn't know much about the other actors except Park Hae-il. In fact, she only knows who her opponent is, and she doesn't know much about the other characters. After all, she is not a serious member of the Korean entertainment industry. Now she is a little surprised to meet a young man who can speak Chinese.

"Really? That's great. We can communicate smoothly without any obstacles. You can also help me communicate with everyone."

Tang Wei's attitude was very friendly, and her smile was very friendly. After speaking to him, she turned her head and looked at the director and screenwriter, and said with surprise, "He can speak Chinese!"

Park Chan-wook smiled and nodded, "Yes, Xuanhe can speak Chinese, so you shouldn't have any problem communicating with him."

"Hey, are you studying in China?"

After sitting down, Tang Wei looked at him and asked with interest.

Being able to communicate with someone who speaks your native language will probably instantly increase the sense of familiarity.

"I grew up in China as a child, went to the United States after college, and then returned to Korea to become an actor."

Quan Xuanhe was naturally happy to communicate with Tang Wei. There was nothing wrong in having a good relationship with the heroine.

To put it bluntly, the level of caution involved in this project was even a thousand times more than when you met the veteran Han Suk-kyu in "Wandering Doctor 2". The two were not on the same level.

This is a top-tier pie in the Korean film industry. Although he, as the second male lead, does not have much weight, if it were put outside, even the 90s actor would be willing to play the supporting role and fight for it.

Even now, some people inside and outside the industry are still surprised that he was able to join Park Chan-wook's project.

"Wow, you have quite a lot of experience."

Tang Wei nodded and praised with a smile, "It seems I won't be bored on the set anymore. I'll have someone to chat with."

Quan Xuanhe smiled and nodded, then naturally climbed up with the stick, "You can come anytime, Sister Wei."

Only three people could understand their conversation: each other and the translator behind her. Others could only watch and know nothing.

After the two of them chatted briefly, Park Chan-wook patted the microphone and coughed lightly. The murmurs in the room instantly disappeared, waiting for Park Chan-wook to speak.

"Everyone seems to be here, so let's start today's script reading."

"First of all, we welcome Ms. Tang Wei, the film's leading lady, who plays a very charming role in the film."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wei listened to what the translator said, stood up and bowed slightly to everyone, and applause broke out in the audience.

Needless to say, everyone at the scene knew that "Decision to Part" was a project specially created for Tang Wei. She was the undisputed heroine, an international star, and a big star from China.

"Next is Hae-il, as our male lead."

A middle school student born in the 1970s who was neither up nor down met Park Chan-wook, a top-notch idol. It seemed as if his ascension was just around the corner, so he naturally treated it with great respect and raised his enthusiasm.

Then Lee Jung-hyun and Park Yong-woo were introduced.

Lee Jung-hyun is better known overseas for her early impression in the Korean Wave, dancing with a fan and long nails. In fact, she has already transformed into an actress and won the Blue Dragon Film Award.

But this is an insult to China.

On an episode of the South Korean variety show "Happy Together," Lee Jung-hyun shared an experience in China, claiming to have been stopped by bandits while on her way to a local performance. According to her account, upon learning she was a famous singer, the bandits demanded proof of her identity. Lee Jung-hyun then sang her signature song "Wow" for the bandits, ultimately allowing them to pass.

This is also a typical example of a company that makes money in China by relying on the Korean Wave but looks down on China. This situation is not uncommon, even very common.

Then Quan Xuanhe was introduced.

"This is Hyun Hyuk, who plays Oh Soo Wan, Hae Joon's assistant."

Park Chan-wook briefly introduced him without saying much.

Sparse applause broke out in the conference room again, and Quan Xuanhe stood up and gestured to the people around him.

In the eyes of the outside world, Kwon Hyun Hyuk is still a new actor who has completely taken off in the Korean Wave thanks to the Goddess's Arrival.

It's like someone becomes famous overnight in China with a costume drama, and then the next second he becomes one of the main actors in Yimou's movie.

With this change of perspective, if he were in China, he would be regarded by the public as a traffic pendant for movies, one of the lightning rods, the son of capital, the child of a big compound, a lightning rod for bad movies, etc., and would be questioned and slandered by those with backgrounds and resources.

The overall level of amazement and surprise from the outside world is almost the same as the Korean netizens' perception of Kwon Hyun Hyuk's determination to star in the breakup film.

In other words, only after completing the Rookie Grand Slam did they suppress possible negative comments and turn to neutral and objective expectations.

After introducing the main actors present, the script reading officially began.

Quan Xuanhe's new project set sail.
