"The Secret I Can't Tell" is a romantic film. The best release date is naturally Valentine's Day. Lee Seung-woo is also planning to be released on February 14 next year, so there is plenty of time to prepare this time, and Lee Seung-woo is not in a hurry to shoot.

After the script was completed, Lee Seung-woo gave it to Lee Soo-man and Kim Tae-min respectively.

Although this movie promised to cooperate with S.M, Lee Seung-woo did not intend to introduce Li Xiuman as a partner, and at the same time brought CJ Entertainment in again.

After all, s.m company is very capable in the music field, but its channels are average in the film and television field.

CJ Entertainment not only has strong publicity and distribution capabilities, but also has its own independent theater chain. It is beneficial to wait for the filming to be completed, so Lee Seung-woo is also interested in deepening his cooperation with CJ.

After sending the invitation, as the person in charge of contacting Lee Seung-woo in CJ, Kim Tae-min quickly gave a positive reply after receiving the script.

With Lee Seung-woo's current fame and strength, as well as the bonus of the drama "I Want to See You", especially the production cost of the movie "The Secret I Don't Want to Tell" is also not high, which is almost foreseeable. This will be another movie that will make sure to make money.

CJ received the script without hesitation, and replied that day that Lee Seung-woo participated in the investment.

The partner has confirmed, and the next one is the actor.

Lin Yuner doesn't need to mention it. Park Bo Gum learned that Lee Seung-woo invited him to star in a movie again, and he was still the male lead. Originally, the agency won the male lead for Park Bo Gum, but after receiving Lee Seung-woo's invitation, he immediately turned down the TV series and agreed without hesitation.

After all, movies are different from TV series. Having the opportunity to enter the film industry as the male lead is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Park Bo Gum, who has just debuted for more than a year.

Not to mention that Lee Seung-woo is a famous director or Park Bo-gun’s Bo-le, Park Bo-gun’s current popularity is entirely supported by Lee Seung-woo. No matter from any perspective, since Lee Seung-woo spoke, Park Bo-gun had no reason to refuse.

Not only could he not refuse, but he also gave in to the pay. Let Li Chengyou decide without any bargaining.

But this is normal.

After the broadcast of "Want to See You", Park Bo Gum's popularity soared, and his value naturally doubled.

But at the end of the day.

No matter how popular Park Bo Gum is, he is just a newcomer who has just debuted, and he is even more new in the film industry.

Not only Park Bo Gum, but also Lin Yuner.

No matter how popular they are, as newcomers in the film industry, the two actually don’t have much box office appeal. It is already extremely lucky to be able to be the male and female protagonists of the first movie. If you want a high pay, it is purely a dream.

The supporting actress in the movie, Lee Seung-woo, handed over to the artist under his company, and is also the only artist signed by Yu Shengyan. - By the way, the stage name has now been changed to Kong Sheng-yeon.

That's why.

The actors who participated in "The Secrets That Can't Tell" were not paid high, accounting for less than 10% of the film production costs.

The movie does not require much complex scenes, and the production cost itself is not high.

After identifying partners and main actors, the preparatory preparations began.

At this moment, Lee Seung-woo suddenly received another call from Seo Hyun, saying that he hadn't met for a while and wanted to invite Lee Seung-woo to dinner.

Lee Seung-woo changed his mind and roughly guessed Xu Xian’s purpose.

But after thinking about it, Lee Seung-woo did not refuse.

night.

A high-end western restaurant.

"How is Xu Xianxi doing recently? I heard that your Girls' Generation has started a new round of concerts. It should be very busy during this period, right?"

Xu Xian nodded: "It's indeed a little busy, I have a lot of itineraries recently."

Next, the two chatted for a few words.

Xu Xian changed his voice and suddenly asked, "I heard that seniors have started preparing for a new show?"

Lee Seung-woo: “…”

This is a bit redundant.

Xu Xian is an artist under S.M and is also in the same group as Lin Yuner. Although the news about Lee Seung-woo preparing to film a new drama has not been reported by the outside world, Xu Xian must know about this situation.

The reason why he asked this was just as he guessed when he received a call from Xu Xian. Xu Xian is likely to have some ideas.

Lee Seung-woo nodded to show his affirmation.

Seo Hyun said: "Two days ago, I saw the script in Yoona Oni. Does the senior's new drama seem to be related to music or about piano?"

Lee Seung-woo smiled in silence and nodded again.

But this time, before Seo Hyun spoke, Lee Seung-woo smiled and said, "Seo Hyun-xi asked me to meet this time, I can probably guess some of it. We have known each other for so long. To be honest, Seo Hyun-xi helped me a lot, and I am grateful and especially thanked. In this regard, whether it is Seo Hyun-xi's previous help to me or our relationship for so long, I should be grateful for it. I have always had this plan.

This is also why I guessed Xu Xianxi’s idea this time and still came to the appointment.

I have always been very grateful to Xu Xianxi and have always wanted to give back.

but……"

Smiling, Lee Seung-woo shook his head: "This time I'm afraid I'll disappoint Seo Hyun-xi. This movie is indeed related to music. I also know that Seo Hyun-xi plays the piano very well and is also suitable for acting in movies. But I am bluntly speaking, if Seo Hyun-xi is not an artist from S.M company or a member of Girls' Generation, since Seo Hyun-xi has spoken, I will definitely agree.

But this movie has decided that Yoona Lin will be the heroine in advance…”

Seeing that Seo Hyun seemed to be trying to defend herself, Lee Seung-woo shook her head and said, "I know Seo Hyun-xi is not trying to win the chance of the heroine, but she is interested in the role of the second female lead. But as I said just now, if Seo Hyun-xi is not a member of Girls' Generation and does not have such a close relationship with Lin Yuner-xi, I can still agree to Seo Hyun-xi. But you both came from S.M and are both members of Girls' Generation. If you two are allowed to perform at the same time, it will send a misleading message to the outside world.

It will give the outside world a feeling that this is a big girl's generation movie.

To be honest, this misleading information is likely to have a counterproductive effect on the promotion of the film. Even if I think too much, I have to worry about this.

As a director, I have to be responsible for my own films, investors, and the actors involved. I have to try my best to avoid some factors that may lead to the failure of the film, even if it can be avoided.

so.

I also hope Xu Xianxi can understand.

If there are roles suitable for Seo Hyun-xi in my script in the future, I will definitely invite Seo Hyun-xi to play, but this time, I can only apologize to Seo Hyun-xi.

I hope you understand."

Xu Xian: “…”

He opened his mouth, speechless.

Before she could express her words to herself, she was blocked by Lee Seung-woo.
Chapter completed!
