Kidnap a superstar for a romance

Chapter 43 Day 40 of Being the Boss

Xu Yisong will be busy for the next month. The Chinese actress friend mentioned earlier will come to Korea to participate in an event in a few days. Not only did she come, she also brought some "specialties" to Xu Yisong in advance.

Xu Yisong was answering a call from her friend at the time. She was afraid of disturbing Quan Zhilong and the others, so she went to the stairwell outside.

"Mu Ranran, are you serious?" Xu Yisong never expected that the gift his good friend had mentioned for him was actually an invitation to read a movie script.

The two of them met in college. Mu Ranran was a student majoring in drama at Columbia University, one year older than her. At that time, the drama club was recruiting new members, and Xu Yisong wanted to satisfy her acting addiction, so she joined. In addition, both of them knew Chinese and quickly became friends. They still talk on the phone from time to time, and they always have dinner together whenever they go to China.

Mu Ranran was still on the set, just getting off work. While waiting for the makeup artist to remove her makeup, she was talking on the phone with Xu Yisong: "Of course I'm serious. You have to know that this is a movie adapted from the play written by Teacher Yan Rong. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again."

Of course Xu Yisong knew who Yan Rong was, she was a leading figure in Chinese drama. But that was why Xu Yisong thought Mu Ranran was crazy.

If she had been an actor in her previous life, she would certainly not refuse, but apart from acting in the drama club, she had never acted again in her life.

Acting is a skill that requires constant accumulation and practice, and she has no idea how much of it she has left.

Mu Ranran believed in Xu Yisong's acting skills. In her opinion, Xu Yisong was a natural actor. When he was in college, she didn't know how many times she had persuaded Xu Yisong to become an actor, but he was determined not to do it. In the end, he not only didn't act, but also went to work at a securities company.

She only found out not long ago that Xu Yisong went to South Korea to open an entertainment company, and Xu Yisong complained to her more than once that he had to work as an employee and run around for announcements even though he was a boss.

Mu Ranran's eyes lit up when she heard the news. The entertainment company is good, doesn't this mean that Xu Yisong is planning to enter the entertainment industry? Then wouldn't it be a good opportunity for her to act?

She really felt that it would be a waste for Xu Yisong, who had such a crazy acting talent, not to act in a play in his life.

Seeing Xu Yisong's obvious hesitation when he heard Teacher Yan Rong's name, Mu Ranran struck while the iron was hot: "Don't worry, the role I gave you doesn't have many scenes, and it's definitely one you're good at. The movie is still in the preparation stage, so think about it carefully. Even if you don't participate, you should at least participate in the performance of this drama. It's just a thank-you performance, and your role will only be a few minutes."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yisong touched her forehead with some entanglement. She did not immediately agree to the movie, but took on the drama.

It's crazy.

One of the thank-you performances will be held in South Korea at the end of this month. Xu Yisong agreed without even reading the script. The playwright was still Teacher Yan Rong. Xu Yisong didn't know how Mu Ranran persuaded this master to let her, who had no formal works, go on stage.

Xu Yisong's grandmother was a famous Yangzhou tanci artist when she was young, so Xu Yisong also studied tanci for a long time when he was young. Mu Ranran used a video of Xu Yisong performing the opening of Yangzhou tanci "Moon City" in a performance of the university drama club to convince teacher Yan Rong. Of course, in order to illustrate Xu Yisong's genius acting skills, Mu Ranran also showed the teacher many of Xu Yisong's performances in the drama club.

Back in the studio, Quan Zhilong and Taeyang were discussing the arrangement of the new song. Seeing Xu Yisong coming back, Quan Zhilong smiled and played the half-finished song for her: "What do you think?"

"Hip-hop style?" It's obviously Kwon Ji-yong's style. This song is still a work in progress, but the prelude is already very catchy. Xu Yisong gave a positive answer and made a small suggestion: "If this part is mixed like this, it will sound a bit noisy."

Kwon Ji-yong listened to the song again based on what Heo Yi-sung pointed out, and found that the arrangement of this part was indeed a bit messy and needed some changes.

While Quan Zhilong was arranging the music, Xu Yisong was reading the drama script that Mu Ranran sent her on the computer. It was just as Mu Ranran said, she didn't have many lines.

This is a play about the Republic of China, telling the story of Suzhou during that difficult period. It is divided into three parts, two and a half hours in total. Xu Yisong will play the role of Little Butterfly, the most famous singer in Suzhou. She appears in the play for more than ten minutes, which is not too short in a two and a half hour play.

In addition to a one-and-a-half-minute Pingtan performance when she appeared on stage, Xu Yisong also had to perform a segment of "Qinhuai Scenery" when she left the stage, which took up a full six minutes. There were not many lines except for the music and the lines of the play, but it was a test of her acting skills.

This character doesn't appear often, but every time he appears, it's at a critical juncture. Little Butterfly is the illusion of Suzhou City. In the early stage, people didn't care about state affairs, but listened to the music by the river; in the middle stage, people were panicked by the war, confused and desperate about the future; and in the later stage, Little Butterfly, an actor from the opera garden, was brave enough to not forget the hatred of the country and the family, which also represented a ray of light in the darkness - a nation with unyielding people will never perish!

When Quan Zhilong finished with Xu Yisong, she was still immersed in the script. This was her habit as an actress in her previous life. No matter how noisy the surroundings were, as long as she started to read the script seriously, she would isolate everything around her and not be affected at all.

Quan Zhilong curiously sat over and took a look, but the script was written in Chinese and he couldn't understand it at all, but he didn't say anything to disturb Xu Yisong. When Xu Yisong finally got out of the mood of the script, he found that the sun had left without knowing when.

Quan Zhilong, who was sitting next to her, was leaning against her and browsing his phone. When he saw that she had finally finished, he turned his head and looked at her and said, "You said I was busy, but it turns out you are busier than anyone else. What were you looking at so intently just now?"

"The script." Xu Yisong stretched and leaned his head against Quan Zhilong, his tone quite melancholy: "It will be performed at the end of this month."

Quan Zhilong was a little shocked when he heard this: "You want to act?" He had never heard Xu Yisong say that he wanted to be an actor.

Xu Yisong closed his eyes to relieve the soreness from looking at the computer for a long time, and then told Quan Zhilong about the conversation he had just had with Mu Ranran: "I haven't been on stage for two years. She's really not afraid that I'll mess up."

"You have also acted in a drama? Do you have a video?" Kwon Ji-yong didn't expect that Xu Yisong had acted in a drama and was curious.

"Yes, but they are all burned discs at home. I'll show them to you when I have time. The plays we rehearsed at that time were very interesting." Thinking of this, Xu Yisong also talked about some interesting things in the drama club. Hearing this, Quan Zhilong became more and more curious about her previous drama performances.

The two of them stayed together and chatted for a while before going downstairs to go home. Quan Zhilong drove up, so there was no need to take a taxi.

When Xu Yisong was getting in the car and was about to fasten her seat belt, a figure came up and fastened her seat belt before her. After the seat belt was fastened, Quan Zhilong did not leave and took the opportunity to hold the person in his arms.

"What's wrong?" Xu Yisong reached out and patted his back gently.

Quan Zhilong shook his head, leaned into Xu Yisong's neck and took a deep breath: "It's nothing, Yisong, thank you." Thank you for giving me cherry blossoms, thank you for keeping me in your heart.

Sometimes Quan Zhilong is really a very emotional person, and he has no sense of security. Xu Yisong said nothing, just quietly enjoying the hug of the two of them, sharing each other's body temperature.

A few minutes later, Quan Zhilong let go of the person in his arms and sat back in his seat. He turned his face slightly away, but Xu Yisong still noticed the redness in the corners of his eyes.

"Wow, our leader is a crybaby."

Quan Zhilong didn't look at her or say anything, he just reached out and tapped her forehead lightly.
