Chapter 279 Wouldn’t it be enough if the gap was narrowed?

The cinema is large and quiet.

Apart from the sound of the movie, the only sound I could hear was the faint sound of the person next to me chewing popcorn.

I watched it once at the premiere and also watched it at the roadshow.

Jiang Zhaohuan lowered his eyes. He seemed more nervous now than at the premiere.

He expected her to comment on his acting skills, and even more so hoped that she would praise him.

But Bae Joo-hyun, who was sitting next to her, had no intention of speaking at all.

Those bright big eyes were completely focused on the film.

Every time when the show reached an exciting part, she would hesitate to put the popcorn at her lips.

"Pfft."

The laughter coming from beside me was obviously restrained.

Jiang Zhaohuan had heard Bae Zhuxuan's devilish laughter before. He raised his eyebrows and asked:
"I didn't expect you to like this style of comedy?"

In the film, Kang Do Hwan only has clothes on his upper body, and only a pair of boxer briefs on his lower body.

The thighs and calves are perfectly exposed, and there is a bird's nest on the top of the head that is big enough for a bird to perch on.

Bae Joo-hyun’s sense of humor is actually not that high, she is essentially a person who loves to laugh.

It’s just that the company wanted to package her cool side, so she had to hold it back in many situations.

She lifted the hair beside her ears and her almond-shaped eyes curved slightly.

"Did you laugh while filming this scene?"

Bae Joo-hyun has only filmed a web drama once and has not been on the crew for a long time, so she is very curious about people like Do Hwan who often hang out in various crews.

"Of course there was. I remember doing it several times during this part."

Kang Do-hwan can't pull off everything in one take, and he's weak when it comes to being funny.

Whenever I encounter a funny scene, I usually have to shoot it several times before the director is satisfied.

He turned his head to look at Pei Zhuxuan and asked curiously:

"What about you? I watched the web drama before. Was there any NG?"

When Bae Joo-hyun heard about the content related to the web drama, she felt a little depressed.

Because the plot of that web drama was rather bland and her acting was rather flat, the final response was not very good.

Fans must like it and encourage themselves.

But Bae Joo-hyun knew very well that there were many obstacles if she wanted to become an actor.

First of all, the company will not favor her with film and television resources. There are still many seniors ahead of her who are eager to make a name for themselves in the acting industry.

Secondly, her height is a "fatal flaw", so some roles were rejected based on her appearance.

Finally, Red Velvet has yet to achieve a truly huge hit.

Bae Joo-hyun would be lying if she didn't feel envious when she looked at her senior, Lim Yoona, who appeared on the screen.

Although she debuted several years later, she is only one year younger than Yoona.

Pei Zhuxuan did not directly answer Do Hwan's question. She turned her head and asked:
"Do you remember what I said before? What I said on "The Entertainer Agency"?"

She was worried that Zhaohuan had forgotten, so she added this sentence.

Jiang Zhaohuan didn't expect the topic to take a 180-degree turn.

After a brief recollection, he guessed what she was asking, smiled heartily, and said in a serious tone:
"Of course, I really want to make a scene with you."

Bae Joo-hyun knew that Do-hwan was serious, but she felt a little inferior in her heart.

His popularity is growing with the broadcast of TV series and movies.

But she felt like she was stuck in her comfort zone.

Bae Joo-hyun lowered her head, raised the corners of her mouth in self-mockery, and her voice gradually became lower.

"How can we shoot a movie? It's really difficult for the photographer."

"Hmm? What do you mean?" "Height."

Bae Joo-hyun raised her head, placed her hands flat on top of her head and gestured, without saying the rest of the words.

The height difference between them is like a crack in popularity.

It's still the same as before, but there's a feeling of being torn apart.

Jiang Zhaohuan was slightly stunned when he heard this. He stood up without thinking and bent his knees under Bae Zhuxuan's puzzled gaze.

He supported himself with his hands on both sides of the seat and leaned down to look at her at eye level.

"Isn't it okay if the gap is narrowed? If you're tired of wearing high heels, I'll shoot with you like this."

The sudden shortened distance made Bae Joo-hyun's heart beat faster. Under normal circumstances, she would have leaned back.

But the other person was him, but he stood straight and remained indifferent.

Distance is not the reason for heartbeat.

What made her heart beat faster was what he said.

Even though I knew the second half of his sentence was a joke, I could still feel his sincerity.

Bae Joo-hyun smiled brightly. She reached out to lift the fringe of Cho-hwan's hair and looked straight into his slightly panicked eyes.

"I really can't help you. Do you really want to take a photo with me?"

After Jiang Zhaohuan performed this series of actions, he froze in place, not knowing how to deal with the consequences.

He felt relaxed when he heard Bae Joo-hyun's answer.

She didn't feel annoyed by my approach, so did that mean she had let down her guard against me?
Jiang Zhaohuan returned to his seat, turned his right hand over and covered his mouth with the back of his hand, and responded in a low voice:

"I'm not good at lying. I really want to take a photo with you."

"If you have a suitable script in the future, I will try my best to get it from the company."

When Jiang Zhaohuan heard that Pei Zhuxuan was willing to film with him, his eyes gradually brightened up, and he asked curiously:
"Why are you still fighting with the company? Aren't these resources offered by me?"

Bae Joo-hyun is very clear about the company's methods of retaining employees.

In order to balance popularity within the organization, some personal resources will be directly intercepted by the company.

This was told to her by her personal assistant, who said that the coffee brand that Kang Do-hwan is currently endorsing was originally intended to be endorsed by two people.

However, in order to avoid scandals and balance the popularity within the team, the company directly rejected this endorsement and turned it into a single-person endorsement.

Bae Joo-hyun shook her head slightly and looked up at the poison gas leak happening on the screen.

She sighed softly, her tone sounding a little helpless:
"It can't be helped. Any company will avoid the risk of conflicts within the team. If only one person in a group is particularly popular, it is easy for them to be excluded."

Jiang Zhaohuan's mind suddenly flashed back to a post he had read before, which gave examples of three girl groups.

They are Hyuna, Suzy and Seolhyun.

The words XXX and her dancers were indeed hurtful enough.

As a team member, it is natural to feel uncomfortable when seeing this kind of content.

But if it escalates to isolation and exclusion, then that is unnecessary.

After all, he had heard about the profit distribution of idol groups, and all profits except for personal resources were divided equally within the team.

The popular members worked hard to get the group endorsement, but they would not be given more credit just because of their popularity.

Therefore, Jiang Zhaohuan can't stand isolation and exclusion. It can only be said that those people only see their own interests but don't think about the efforts of the popular members.

Jiang Zhaohuan crossed his arms in front of his chest and smiled:

"I understand the company's approach. A more professional term would be explosion-proof popular members?"

"You're pretty knowledgeable, aren't you?"

"I am very concerned about everything about you."

The words spoken casually made Jiang Zhaohuan's smile freeze on his face. Now what should he do?
Bae Joo-hyun didn't expect that Do-hwan would speak so boldly.

She was so nervous that her fingers tightly grasped the sides of her jeans and she didn't dare to turn her head to look at the people next to her.

If I were to confess, what would I do?
