Peninsula: I'm the Top Streamer

Chapter 477 Before the Arrival
"Because Dongtian was very harsh in his words, it made me feel a little uncomfortable."

Although the answer in her heart was quite clear, Liu Zhimin could not give a direct answer to Quan Xuanhe, because that would mean that she had no image and dignity in front of Quan Xuanhe.

She had already exposed herself completely and lowered her head once, and she couldn't do it again.

"Well, I hope this makes you feel better."

After a while, Quan Xuanhe stopped teasing her and his answers became much more serious.

Since then, Quan Xuanhe has never replied to Jin Dongtong's news, just as Liu Zhimin wished.

It was Jin Dongtian who was getting anxious. His heart was beating fast and he felt like an ant on a hot pan.

How to do?
Seeing that Quan Xuanhe had not replied for a long time, Jin Dongtian sent him a few more messages to ask him.

"oppa?"

"Are you there?"

"Then should I ask Jimin-unnie?"

After a long time without a reply, Jin Dongtian had no choice but to reluctantly raise his head and turn to ask Liu Zhimin who was standing beside him.

"Hyun Hyuk oppa asked me to ask you what you think first, what do you think?"

When speaking, Jin Dongtian concealed his emotions very well, not revealing them at all, and his tone was normal.

"Oh, I see. Then I'll talk to him later. You don't have to reply yet."

Liu Zhimin nodded calmly, a gentle smile appeared on his face towards Jin Dongtian, and his tone was very relaxed.

Seeing her face like this, Jin Dongtian stared at her for a while, and finally nodded without any expression and responded.

"Oh."

He was a little scheming, but not much. His skills were still not that deep, and he still couldn't completely conceal his emotions. After responding, he turned his head and looked out the window, expressing his inner unhappiness without saying a word.

Liu Zhimin curled up the corners of his mouth, enjoying the pleasure of the final success.

As long as Quan Xuanhe cares about her more, how can a mere Jin Dongtian compare with her?

. . .

On the other side, Zhou Ziyu went out with Kim Dahyun. They were both dressed lightly and wore big sun hats, which looked like oversized masks that were a little loose on their little faces. They went shopping hand in hand.

"I thought about it, and it seems like he doesn't have anything he particularly likes, so I bought him a wallet, or a watch, or a belt. Anyway, let's go out and have a look."

Zhou Ziyu slowly expressed her thoughts to Kim Dahyun beside her.

She originally wanted to find Ye Shuhua or Zhuang Dingxin who were around her, but when they heard that she had to accompany her to buy things for Quan Xuanhe, they just kept persuading her not to do anything stupid.

But she herself knew best whether she was doing anything stupid or not. She just wanted to buy a gift in return, and it was not as exaggerated as she said to get back together.

Right...

Sometimes even Zhou Ziyu herself began to wonder in her heart, am I really like what they said?
However, Zhou Ziyu did not listen to their advice. After thinking and hesitating for a long time, she decided to buy a gift to express her gratitude.

"They are all more suitable for him, but..."

Kim Da-hyun rarely goes out, but since Zhou Ziyu took the initiative to find her, she naturally had no reason to refuse and happily accompanied her out.

I heard that he wanted to buy a gift for Quan Xuanhe.

But this is Tzuyu's idea. Although she is not very optimistic about it, she respects her idea. After all, it is something she wants to do, and finding her means that she trusts her.

After all, she is an older sister.

"Think about it, has he accepted the same endorsement? Otherwise, wouldn't it be inconvenient for him to wear it out?"

Kim Da Hyun was indeed thinking more carefully. Zhou Ziyu nodded with a little realization, "That's right."

But the problem is, Zhou Ziyu doesn’t really know what Quan Xuanhe is doing now. After all, they have not had any particularly detailed contact until now and have always kept a distance.

"Should I ask him?"

This sentence fully demonstrates Zhou Ziyu's helplessness and immaturity. Even now she still doesn't have any strong ideas.

Hearing this, Kim Da Hyun pursed her lips and said in a soft and patient tone, "If it doesn't affect you, you can ask."

"Em, but if I said that, would he have guessed it?"

Zhou Ziyu thought about it and suddenly asked back.

"Can't he let him know?"

Kim Da-hyun expressed her doubts, wondering if it was necessary to prepare a special surprise for a gift.

"But isn't it true that giving a gift is supposed to be a surprise? If you know what's going on, it won't be a surprise anymore."

This is what Zhou Ziyu thinks, and there is no big problem with it.

"Uh… okay, so what do you do?"

Kim Da-hyun didn't argue with her. She respected her thoughts and opinions, nodded, and continued asking.

"let me see."

The two chatted one sentence at a time until they got into the car. Kim Da-hyun drove the car while Chou Tzu-yu sat in the passenger seat, holding her phone and starting to think about something.

Ask Eleonius.

"I'll ask his assistant if that's okay?"

"Are we on good terms? Can I keep it a secret for you?"

"It might work."

Zhou Ziyu looked thoughtful and spoke hesitantly.

"Then try asking, and ask for a more appropriate reason."

Kim Da-hyun patiently gave her advice, and at this time she acted more like an older sister than Minatozaki Sana.

She does have a gentle personality, and may even be the softest character in Twice... one of them, and there is also Ming Jingnan.

"it is good."

At this time, Zhou Ziyu found that Kim Da-hyun was better. He could give her advice at critical moments, unlike Minatozaki Sana, who said things that made her hesitant.

So, Zhou Ziyu sent a message to Liu Aili.

"Unnie, can I ask what endorsements he's currently involved in?"

"It's just necklaces, jewelry, and other wearable items." When Liu Aili saw the message, she was still outside the set, waiting for Quan Xuanhe to start filming. She was on standby at all times and was a little surprised to see Zhou Ziyu sending her a message.

When Zhou Tzuyu was still dating Quan Hyun Hyuk, he added her contact information, and when he came to see Quan Hyun Hyuk, he would occasionally think of her and bring her some things, so she still had a very good impression of Zhou Tzuyu, who was a very kind girl.

"I'm currently in contact with potential endorsements for jewelry and watches, but I haven't landed any other endorsements yet."

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Liu Aili tried to ask. After all, Quan Xuanhe was her boss. If Zhou Ziyu wanted to do something, she still had to consider it.

"It's okay, I just asked. I think I saw it on the news recently and I'm a little curious (crying and laughing)"

"Don't tell him, there's nothing else to ask for."

Zhou Ziyu speaks very carefully and politely.

"Well, if there's anything you need my help with, just tell me."

After the brief chat, Liu Aili put down her phone and looked at Quan Xuanhe who was filming under the fill light and camera not far away.

Zhou Ziyu is a good girl and should not do anything bad, so she shouldn't mention it to Quan Xuanhe for now.

After getting the accurate information, Chou Tzu-yu and Kim Da-hyun went all the way to Gangnam, Gorky Road.

Known as the "Cave of Youth", it is a center of fashion and trends. "Gorky Road" means "Tree Road" because the street is lined with lush trees, giving it a pleasant feel.

Having made up her mind, Zhou Ziyu began to walk around the street patiently, looking for a suitable gift.

How expensive a gift should I buy?

I don't know, because the budget is unlimited.

To this day, Zhou Ziyu has received the favor of Quan Xuanhe, and the contract of LV spokesperson has been officially put on the agenda. She is now formally negotiating related matters and waiting for the contracts of other Korean artists to expire so that she can officially fill the vacancy and take over.

By that time, Tzuyu may be the first member of Twice to have a single high-end luxury endorsement.

This may be Zhou Ziyu's re-start on the endorsement road after several years of delay, taking back the resources that should have belonged to her.

Moreover, when they were still dating, she gave him a bracelet that cost 10 or 20 million Korean won, so it definitely couldn't be cheaper this time.

...

Everything is developing slowly, and at this moment, the launch of Squid Game is just around the corner.

The press conference, offline flash mob events, and other activities have been preheated to the hilt, just waiting for today's official broadcast.

Squid! is one of Netflix's major productions this year. People only know that it is extremely popular and explosive, but in fact, Squid! was not very well received before it was broadcast.

The reason is that the subject matter is too unique. Similar themes in Japan include Alice in Borderland and As God Said. There are precedents for this type of subject matter, and the effect after it was broadcast was not very popular, at most it was considered to be excellent. It is a difficult problem for later makers to shoot it more brilliantly, and it is also a problem how to break out of the framework of imitating the former.

Therefore, when Squid Game was broadcast, not everyone was unanimously optimistic about it. Half of them were expecting it, while half were conservative. People in the industry were even more conservative.

But no matter how much is said, the publicity scale of Squid Game is full, which has attracted the attention of most people who watch Korean dramas at home and abroad, and they are all waiting for Netflix to broadcast it online as soon as possible.

At this moment, the series was officially launched on time, waiting for the first wave of audience reviews.

Hey buddy, how come there is a new drama? It’s really annoying me.

Jin Luoyong smacked his lips and sat in front of the TV, watching his girlfriend busying around beside him with a few bags of snacks, his expression somewhat helpless.

This guy has made so many dramas, one after another. I just finished watching one and a new one is released not long after.

"He's not the main character, isn't he Lee Jung-jae? If you really want to see it, just watch his cut."

Jin Luoyong complained out of habit, but in fact he was just expressing his dissatisfaction with her fanatical love for the star.

"What does Oppa know? If the cut isn't counted in Netflix's ratings, then it's a waste of time. And he's the third lead, so why isn't he considered the main character?"

"You like Lee Jung-jae's New World, don't you? Just treat it as watching Lee Jung-jae. What's the big deal? Didn't Oppa like it when he watched DP before?"

His girlfriend barked back at him non-stop, leaving him no room for explanation. He could only respond dryly, wanting to curse but holding back. "That's different."

"Oppa is also very double-standard."

It is almost impossible to argue with a woman, because reason is not something that can be discussed between lovers.

There was no choice, so the two of them calmed down and waited for the time to come. The girlfriend next to them refreshed her screen and immediately refreshed eight episodes, and the complete version was released.

"It's started, it's started."

The girlfriend squeezed into Jin Luoyong's arms, and he put his hand where it should be, feeling the delicate touch. Jin Luoyong just treated it as accompanying his girlfriend.

With the classic Netflix opening sound, the plot on the screen officially got on track.

The plot developed bit by bit. Jin Luoyong watched the progress of the plot with drooping eyelids, listlessly, and made a comment or two from time to time.

"Gong Yoo must have felt great when he slapped Lee Jung Jae."

"There's a loophole in this plot. It's totally illogical for him to do this."

"I guess this person will definitely appear again later."

"Of course we still have to play games, no need to think about it."

"Is he the protagonist? We've seen so much and he still hasn't appeared."

He kept spewing out trash talk, which made his girlfriend impatient. She pinched his soft flesh, causing him to scream in pain and then fall silent.

The plot is really nothing new, and there is not even a chance for the audience to think in complex ways.

But the plot progressed bit by bit in this way. Jin Luoyong, who was forced to mute his microphone, stopped talking and just watched the development of the plot.

His eyes gradually became more and more focused, and he lost the desire to speak, gradually immersed in the development of the plot.

"Oppa is indeed handsome. He is the only handsome guy in this drama. He looks so happy."

Squid Game is a drama about a group of men, and the only flower is Zheng Haoyan, who has a classic East Asian appearance in the eyes of Westerners. To put it in a more advanced way, she looks high-end, like a model, and has texture.

Perhaps it was with the contrast of this group of supporting actors that Zheng Haoyan jumped to the top and became extremely popular, and Wei Gujun, the original actor of the role of Quan Xuanhe, also stood out among this group of short guys and attracted nearly 10 million fans.

Eight episodes are not very long, and each episode is only about forty-five minutes long. Now the projects produced by Netflix are completely moving towards the mainstream, with shorter episodes and shorter number of episodes. Based on market analysis, the original appearance of Korean dramas is gradually changing.

After these eight episodes, Jin Luoyong actually thinks that the drama as a whole is just average, not so stunningly outstanding, just a decent level, with nothing particularly strong.

In fact, this view is also the opinion of most Korean local audiences after watching the show for the first time. It even received some negative reviews at the first time, and did not receive the rave reviews that appeared after it was broadcast. On the contrary, some problems and opinions were pointed out about the plot, and the evaluation of the plot was not high.

The first broadcast of Squidward Gaming was not going well.
