Peninsula: Superpowered Daily Life

Chapter 65 Script Study Session

After all the funding for "Exit" was secured, director Lee Sang-geun quickly got the crew ready. The filming location had already been decided in Chuncheon City, where the crew built a massive 1-square-meter soundstage, and most of the initial investment was used for it.

The server launch date has been set for September 20th.

The film is expected to be completed in about three months and is scheduled for release next summer.

A few days before filming began, at a coffee shop in Gangnam District, Seoul.

The coffee shop was booked out today for a script reading of "Exit".

At 10 a.m., Zhou Wenzhe drove to the coffee shop, parked his car, and went inside.

As a producer, he wasn't actually required to attend today's script reading, but he was curious about the format, so he came.

The coffee shop was already packed with people, including all the main actors, the male and female leads, as well as the director, assistant director, and several other important crew members.

When Zhou Wenzhe entered, everyone except Li Shanggen and Lin Yun'er looked at him with surprise, wondering who this was.

Yoona stared wide-eyed, her mind completely blank.

Li Shanggen quickly stood up and introduced, "Everyone, this is Chairman Zhou Wenzhe, the producer of our film."

Many staff members in the crew knew that there was suddenly a producer, and they also knew that he was the biggest investor in "Exit", but it was the first time they knew that he was such a young person.

The producer is the most powerful person in a film, holding the power of life and death over the entire crew, much more so than the director or screenwriter.

What's more, he's the biggest investor; a single word from him can change the fate of everyone present.

So when they learned of Zhou Wenzhe's identity, even though he looked young, they all came up to greet him and try to curry favor with him, including the actors.

Only Lim Yoona remained sitting there, staring at him in disbelief.

Is he a producer?

In other words, he is one of the people behind "Tianyi Capital"?

If that's really the case, then he's still a director at SM Entertainment?

this..

Suddenly, Lim Yoona felt like she had missed out on a big prize. If she had known it would turn out this way, she should have tried to improve her relationship with him.

After all, being neighbors in the same building gives them an advantage.

After exchanging pleasantries with the others, Zhou Wenzhe walked up to Lin Yoona and extended his right hand: "Lin Yoona-ssi, we meet again."

"Uh... Hello, Producer Zhou." After realizing what he meant, Lim Yoona stood up and shook hands with him.

Zhou Wenzhe held Lin Yoona's hand, a meaningful smile on his face. He still remembered the way this woman looked down on him when they were at the gym.

Seeing that she had to put on a smile for him, he actually started to like the feeling of playing dumb to fool others.

Perhaps she didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly.

Releasing Lin Yoona's hand, Zhou Wenzhe casually found a seat, picked up the script prepared on the table, and flipped through it casually.

The script reading session officially began.

. . .

Zhou Wenzhe finally understood what a script reading session was. It was where actors went over their lines, not only to work on their chemistry beforehand, but also to revise the lines to make them more suitable based on practice.

In addition, some plot points need to be cut or added, and these need to be discussed and determined in practice.

The process was actually a bit tedious, but every actor took it very seriously.

Lim Yoon-a's performance also impressed Zhou Wenzhe. She is not just a pretty face as the audience says. Regardless of her previous works, he can see that she has made great preparations for this movie.

This might be because it's her first time playing the lead role in a film, so she wants to give a better performance so that she can have more opportunities in the future.

She really wants to become an outstanding actress, but because of her idol background, many people have prejudices against her acting skills.

However, over the years, she has been working hard to hone her acting skills. She wants the audience to see the results of her efforts and wants to get rid of the title of Girls' Generation's Im Yoona. She wants to become actress Im Yoona.

During the lunch break.

After finishing his meal, Zhou Wenzhe took a cup of coffee and went to the backyard of the coffee shop. He sat under a parasol and enjoyed the pleasant afternoon.

A little while later, Lim Yoona also came to the backyard with coffee and sat opposite him, wanting to say something to him, but not knowing how to start.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Wenzhe spoke first: "Lin Yoona-ssi, is there something you need?"

"I want to apologize to you, please don't mind my past behavior."

When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Although Lin Yoona knew that Zhou Wenzhe was unlikely to ask her to leave the crew, there were still several months of filming ahead, and their relationship couldn't stay so strained.

Moreover, who knows if he will create obstacles for himself in the future?

It's best to resolve the unpleasantness between the two of them as soon as possible.

"Huh? What happened to you before? I didn't think there was anything wrong with it." Zhou Wenzhe pretended not to understand.

"I'm glad you don't mind." Lin Yoona breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, she was convinced that Zhou Wenzhe was the kind of person who was easygoing and carefree. Otherwise, how could he not see that she was ignoring him?

"Lim Yoona-ssi, did you used to hate me?"

"No, I just... I just used to think you were a bit unambitious, but now I realize I was being narrow-minded."

Lim Yoona has a very strong network of connections in the industry. With just a little inquiry, she learned that Tianyi Capital has a very large presence in the Korean entertainment industry. It has invested in almost every well-known entertainment company, and its shareholding is quite significant.

This isn't something that can be accomplished simply by having a lot of money; it requires a very strong background.

At this moment, she was even a little envious of her junior colleague at the same company. How did she find such a boyfriend? Could she share some experience with her?

"Hehe, really? Actually, I don't want to start any career, but I have no choice. My family requires me to support myself. So whether I can continue to live such a carefree life depends on you guys."

"I have a lot of confidence in this movie." What else could Lim Yoona say but that was her only statement?

"If I lose money, I hope Yoona-ssi can help me out since we're neighbors living upstairs and downstairs, haha."

"Okay, no problem." Of course, Lin Yoona knew that Zhou Wenzhe was joking. With his shares in those entertainment companies, he didn't need a small artist like her to support him.

"A promise is a promise, I'll keep it in mind, and I hope Yoona won't go back on her word later."

"What if this movie makes a lot of money?"

"Then I'll send you a red envelope, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"Okay, it's a deal."

Yoona stretched out her hand, deliberately showing her little finger.

Seeing this, Zhou Wenzhe also extended his little finger and made a pinky promise with her.

They're all grown up, yet they still make such childish vows and promises.

After making a pinky promise, their intimacy level returned to above 60, reaching 62.
