Chapter Fifty-Six: The True Heir

t's with that look Are you still acting like Cheng ShiyuanChi Jingyuan looked at her face, saw her eyes, and couldn't help but laugh. His body relaxed, he tilted his head lazily and said, "You're not...Besides the security guards outside the television station, ** company's security and on-duty personnel were also subjected to hardship.

The ** entrance is always guarded by fans, and as gatekeepers, they have weathered many storms. They are accustomed to the fans gathering at the entrance every day.

...but the sudden appearance of a large number of people outside their door these days caught them off guard. As time went on, the number grew larger and larger. Looking out, it was a sea of black, putting immense pressure on them.

They held up signs with EXO's name, and many people also had pictures of the members. They crowded the entrance of ** Entertainment so tightly that every time a van passed by, they would rush to see if it was EXO's.

If not, it's okay. He sighed in disappointment and returned to his original spot to continue waiting.

If that's the case, then things will be terrible. These security guards must rush out immediately to maintain order, otherwise, not only will the nanny car not be able to leave, but something even worse could happen. Then they'll be in trouble.

Recently, EXO members have been afraid to use the main entrance when going to the company. Besides their usual chauffeured car, they are always accompanied by managers and assistants.

Fans of EXO, who have been staking out the location, have caused a lot of inconvenience to staff members and are beginning to impede traffic.

But there was no way, no matter how the security and company staff tried to persuade them, “EXO is busy, they’ve already gone out on schedule, they’re not even at the company” or whatever other honest-to-goodness truths they told, it just wouldn't sway them. Every day, they still gathered in a huge group outside the gate.

Those who have worked in ** for a long time will sigh, as if they've returned to the peak of TVXQ's era. Back then, the company entrance was like this too, it feels familiar.

All of these fans are the company's big spenders, truly investing their hard-earned money to promote the company. They are putting in all their effort to contribute to the construction of the building that the company is currently working on. ** can only express its heartache over this, but it's also very happy.

Yesterday, Chi Jingyuan caused a stir online and within EXO's and his own fan groups, even briefly trending on Weibo.

The cause was that during his previous autograph event at New Village, a fan-taken video of his interaction with Choi Seon-mi was uploaded to the internet, which sparked widespread discussion among fans.

Generally, these signing events often reserve some front-row seats for fan clubs and individual members' dedicated fans (stans), allowing them to take pictures and post them online. This can be considered a form of promotion.

Choi Seon-mae held onto Ji Kyeong-won's left arm throughout the entire signing session, which left many people feeling surprised.

Because ** is very strict about how close idols get to fans during signing events, assistants will immediately step in if they go too far.

Even a handshake would be considered a perk, let alone being held by the arm throughout the whole thing and with such force.

After learning that it was Chi Jingyuan who proactively spoke up to stop his assistant, many fans felt an unusual amount of envy.

Especially after Choi Sun-mi went back and in her usual very active Yuan fan group, she subtly showed off the signing process today, which made countless Yuan's diehard fans cry and moan with envy.

"What the heck I bought so many albums and didn't get any signed coupons, it's just not fair. ** is totally heartless."

"I went to XO's signing event twice, and every time I saw wuli Yuan up close... I can't even speak when I think about it! Not to mention physical contact, just being this close made me speechless. Now I feel like I lost a billion dollars!"

"Ahhhh! I'm going to the fan signing too, I want to shake hands with oppa, can we hold hands"

"Oppa, how can I become your ideal type" "You already are," Ah Jia, why don't you say such alluring words to me My jealousy is really out of control."

..."

Pool Jingyuan's behavior has caused a lot of discussion among EXO fans, and many other members' fans are also quite envious. Yuan fans admire how their main idol treats fans so gently, and the tone of their speech is somewhat sour.

It is foreseeable that in the following autograph sessions, Chi Jingyuan will definitely be busier than before, which is also what he brought upon himself.

"Change the male lead Why I disagree!"

In the coffee shop, Kim Eun-sook's mood immediately became agitated after hearing Choi Sung-jun, her senior who was also a high-ranking manager at SBS television network, speak.

This drama, "The Heirs," is her latest and most anticipated work.

As the author, she is very aware of the weaknesses of this play: the core is a rather clichéd love story between a wealthy and handsome man and a poor woman, with some plot points that seem somewhat old-fashioned and melodramatic.

Although she is confident that the audience will find the subsequent plot and twists exciting, she worries that without sufficient topicality, there could be a problem with empty seats in the early stages.

Therefore, the drama needs several main actors with their own traffic and fans to provide sufficient discussion and viewership at the beginning.

After all, it is an idol drama and requires all the actors to have outstanding looks and figures.

As a popular actor in recent years, Lee Min-ho is not the ideal age match for the protagonist role. However, he is her perfect choice nonetheless.

Not to mention, she has admired Lee Min Ho since before, appreciating both his appearance and acting skills. She's a half-fan of his.

Upon hearing these words from Choi Sung-jun, she was quite excited and cried out. However, after all, she had been in the industry for many years, and quickly calmed down.

Jin Eunsook realized that this senior could talk to her like this, which meant SBS had almost changed their minds.

"Who's getting replaced Who's so charming they made you guys at SBS change things up right before the deadline"

Kim Eun-sook let out a cold laugh, her voice laced with a hint of mockery.

Ji Chang-wook, who debuted as a member of the idol group EXO, starred in last year's hit drama "Reply 1997." You should have seen it.

Choi Seong-jun was very calm. He knew his friend well and was full of confidence in this persuasion.

"Is it Yun Jae from *Please Answer* I really like that drama, of course I've heard of him. He is very good-looking and his acting is okay... I just wonder when ** will get involved in these things"

When Kim Eunsook heard the name Ji Sung, Yun Jae's smiling face came to mind. The hostility she had before subsided somewhat, but her support for Lee Minho remained steadfast in her heart.

"...More than just **..."

Cui Chengjun didn't elaborate, but instead spoke of the benefits of the role change:

"Eun-Shuk, actually, put aside your preconceived notions about Lee Min Ho. Just judging by the character setting, Ji Chang Wook is much more suitable. Even just looking at the age setting of 18-year-old high school student, it's too different."

"If you understand the current situation of the K-pop scene, you'll know how popular EXO is. The news that he's playing the male lead is definitely a bigger sensation than anything Lee Min Ho could bring. With his built-in fan base, this drama guarantees massive discussion and buzz."

"As for his acting skills, we all understand that it's not the most important thing. It just needs to be good enough, and Pool Jingyuan's acting is very good, it's been recognized by the industry... As for his appearance, to be honest, I haven't seen many artists who are better than him, especially in terms of temperament, Lee Min Ho..."

Under Choi Cheng-jun's earnest persuasion, Kim Eun-shul also calmed down and started to think. She kept substituting the names of Ji-gyeong-won and Lee Min-ho into the male lead she had written, trying to see which one was the most suitable for her heart.

And if Chi Jingyuan takes the male lead role, besides increased support from the television station, we would also benefit in terms of locations and filming aspects. This drama isn't about upper-class society, is it You could use him to gain some insights to enrich your script.

In the end, Choi Sung-jun threw out a big ace.

"Senior, you mean..."

Jin Eunsook understood, lifting her head in surprise and asking.

"Hee hee... Eun Suk, you know why I think that even though he's an idol, Ji Chang Wook is more suitable to act in this drama than Lee Min Ho"

Cui Chengjun smiled and made a gesture while nodding his head.

"Because compared to the role he played in the play...he is a true heir."
