My landlord is a big star

Chapter 108 107. Are the unspoken rules caught up in the company?
In November, summer turns to autumn, and because of the cold weather, Xu Lin always carries a thermos with him wherever he goes.

Unscrewing the bottle cap and blowing on the hot air, he drank two sips of hot water, and when he looked up, he saw a man in a suit and leather shoes striding forward. He was slightly fat and looked about 40 years old.

SM company can't go upstairs without an ID card, but Xu Lin has already contacted the relevant personnel in advance to help him.

Sure enough, when the man approached, he first bowed slightly, then raised his head and half bowed his waist, and said to him respectfully:
"You're here Director Xu nim, I'm Kwon Kim-sung, head of HR department of SM, I specially picked you up to the company."

"Well, I have a heart." Xu Lin nodded, and raised his head in the direction of the entrance of the underground elevator: "Lead the way first."

"Yes." Quan Jinsheng turned and led the way.

Facing the new director, he didn't dare to inquire casually. The head of the personnel department asked him to pick up Xu Lin, so he did it honestly.

Stepping into the elevator, Quan Jinsheng swiped his card to press the floor.

With a ding, the elevator arrived at the twelfth floor. Xu Lin followed Quan Jinsheng to the office in a calm manner, raised his hand and knocked on the door, and pushed the door open with a smile after hearing the voice of please come in.

It was none other than SM's president, Kim Youngmin, who caught his eyes. He also got up quickly and said:
"Director Xu, you are finally here."

"I've been waiting for President Jin for a long time." Xu Lin smiled, walked to the desk, pulled out the chair and sat down: "It seems that President Jin has been waiting for me. I was busy writing scripts before, so please forgive me."

"Where is this, haha." Jin Yingmin waved his hand to indicate that it's okay, picked up the phone in front of the desk, asked the assistant for two cups of coffee and hung up, then looked at Xu Lin.

As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The intrigue within SM company is no longer a secret, it's just that most artists or fans don't want to believe it.Xu Lin approached Jin Yingmin naturally because he wanted Lin Yuner to participate in this movie.

As we all know, Lee Soo Man is in charge of the men's team, and Kim Min Young is in charge of the women's team.Xu Lin is also very important to Jin Yingmin, and he is trying to find a way to get this guy involved in the company's distribution dispute.

Just as Jin Yingmin was about to speak, the door was pushed open by the assistant, and the assistant turned around and went out immediately after bowing to hand over the coffee to the two.

The office was quiet again.

"Hey, Director Xu paid a sudden visit today, do you need help from the company? You can just say it."

"Just say it?" Xu Lin suddenly found it very funny, shaking his head and leaning back: "Isn't President Jin afraid that I will threaten the company with my mouth? Or are you waiting for me?"

"Hehe, Director Xu is young and vigorous." Jin Yingmin was not impatient with his attitude, but felt that he had a sharp aura, and the young man was indeed more aggressive than him.

But what he didn't expect was that Xu Lin treated him like this only because of his coquettish operation before, and the staff changes in Girls' Generation made Lin Yuner often hide and digest her emotions by herself.

With his girlfriend like this, can he have a good face to talk to this person?What kind of nationality joke, he is not a saint.

Xu Lin nodded calmly, and said: "President Jin, I'm here today because I want the company to help me with something. You also know that I wrote a script recently and I'm about to choose actors. Before, I had a relationship with Lin Yuner. There was a collaboration once, and this time there happened to be a role for her in my new work, so I wanted her to audition."

"...That's all?" Jin Yingmin's mouth twitched, and he was a director of the company. He came to the company to select actors. He thought he wanted to join SM's board of directors. Thinking of this, he was a little speechless look, added:

"Yuner has been wanting to be an actress for a long time. It's her honor that Director Xu can let her play the role, but I need to know the start time of your movie first, so that she can adjust her schedule."

"There's no rush to shoot." Xu Lin shrugged indifferently: "I know that Yun'er has accepted a Chinese TV series, and the company wants her to develop in China. I'm here just to finalize the candidate."

As soon as these words came out, Jin Yingmin's face was full of question marks, and he couldn't figure out what he was thinking at all. He actually valued Lin Yuner so much...

Something's wrong, this girl's acting skills are not strong either.

"You mean this role will be kept for her?"

"Well...President Jin can think so." Xu Lin's eyes suddenly burst into light, and he said bluntly: "You should have read my news, I have high requirements for my works."

After all, he pretended to admire Lin Yuner and praised: "Yooner Xi came to my movie before, and to be honest, she is very spiritual in acting. Although she doesn't have any outstanding masterpieces and her figure is average, but I think her face is very suitable for a movie actor, at least it can resist the close-up of the camera."

These words made the corners of Jin Yingmin's mouth twitch, and he couldn't help but start to mutter in his heart, he naturally knew what kind of artists he was, and he didn't know how to respond to Xu Lin's praise for a while.

To put it bluntly, actors can be idols, but idols may not be able to resist movie cameras.

The film lens is relatively thin, and the makeup is relatively elegant, which can easily expose the flaws or deficiencies on the idol's face.

After thinking for a while, Jin Yingmin nodded, and agreed: "Yooner's face is indeed suitable for acting in movies, so I will thank Director Xu for Yuner first, and let her manager arrange the itinerary later."

"You're welcome, I like to find good actors!" Xu Lin grinned cheerfully, ecstatic in his heart.

The role was originally written for her.

In the end...Kim Youngmin has to thank us.

"Well, I'll call her agent first and let them come up and explain in detail. Director Xu will wait for a while."

"No problem, thank you President Kim."

Jin Yingmin smiled and waved his hands, saying that you are welcome, then he picked up the landline phone, gave Xu Lin a few instructions, then hung up the phone, waiting for the manager to arrive.

About five or six minutes later, there was a knock on the door. After Zhao Bingwan and Song Yanen came in, they quickly bowed to Jin Yingmin and said hello. When Zhao Bingwan looked up and saw Xu Lin, his face was full of astonishment, and his heart felt cold.

If he remembers correctly, this person told him that he wanted to follow Lin Yuner's unspoken rules, and now he has become a director...

It's over.

This guy is really willing to pay!

"President nim, are you looking for us?"

"Ah, I'm the one looking for you." Jin Yingmin pointed to Xu Lin with his palm up and introduced, "You should have read the news. This is Director Xu. He wants to ask Yuner to make a movie."

"...President nim." Zhao Bingwan struggled, "Yooner's schedule is full..."

"Then adjust the itinerary. You should be able to do this little thing, right? What's more important, Bing Wan."

"Yes...I'm sorry, President nim!" Zhao Bingwan was stunned, and immediately bowed and apologized after realizing it.

In fact, he can't be blamed for this. After all, he was stunned when he saw Xu Lin, and almost forgot his manager's responsibilities. If he couldn't even understand this, he would probably be demoted.

Similarly, Xu Lin also sensed his thoughts and showed him a friendly smile.

"It's okay, I can understand that she has a long schedule, how about letting her come to CJ Entertainment for an audition some other day?"

"Of course it's okay." Jin Yingmin nodded with a smile.

But Zhao Bingwan showed a look of regret, he felt that Xu Lin would not give up if he failed to achieve his goal.

President Kim, you are confused!
This person has chased after our company to play unspoken rules.

"President Jin, Yoona is practicing dance in the company now, why don't I ask her first?"

Snapped!
Jin Yingmin patted the table and scolded: "Hey, do you not understand the Korean I speak? Or do you think you are qualified to make decisions for artists now! Are you crazy!"

"...I'm sorry!" Zhao Bingwan, who was reprimanded, bowed and apologized again, his heart beating wildly.

Disobedience to the president is a big taboo, originally he could leave here with a nod and agree, but he insisted on committing suicide.

But after getting along for so many years, he didn't want to see Lin Yun'er fall into the swamp, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet before saying these words.But Xu Lin next to him was not angry, and said thoughtfully:
"It's okay, President Kim, I just happen to have nothing to do right now, why don't you let me go down and have a talk with Yoona."

"Well, that's fine." Jin Yingmin nodded, and looked up at Song Yanen: "Yanen, you can take Director Xu to talk to Yuner, and check her time by the way, so don't delay the audition."

"Yes, President nim." Song Yanen naturally knew Xu Lin, but she was also surprised by Zhao Bingwan's behavior.

It stands to reason that this person is usually not shrewd, and he is flattering, why is it so strange today?
When Xu Lin got up and left with Song Yanen, there were shouts of scolding and humble apologies in the office.When Zhao Bingwan came out again, his face was full of helplessness, and he left with a sigh and bowed his head.

The elevator descended to the fourth floor. After opening the door, he saw Xu Lin. Although he was reluctant in his heart, he still bowed to say hello.

"Director Xu nim."

"Well, Zhao Bingwan, right?" Xu Lin turned to look at the entrance of the corridor: "I think there is a little misunderstanding between us."

"...Yes, Director Xu finished talking with Yun'er?"

"I haven't gone to see her yet." Xu Lin raised his eyebrows and said, "I think it's more important to clear up the misunderstanding between us first. How about it? Do you have time to go over there with me for a chat?"

"If you have time, Director Xu."

It's not hard to hear Zhao Bingwan's compliment from his tone, but Xu Lin didn't pierce his superficial skills, turned around on his own, strode to the corridor entrance, took out a cigarette and clicked on a cigarette.

After Zhao Bingwan came in, he handed one to the other party, and looked at him helplessly after exhaling the smoke.

"You shouldn't be talking to President Kim like that today."

"Well, I know." Seeing that he didn't put on airs, Zhao Bingwan simply said bluntly: "I'm sorry Director Xu, I want to know why you have a crush on Yun'er? Can you let her go?"

"...Ah? No." Xu Lin laughed angrily at him, and quickly explained: "I was joking with you last time. I didn't intend to rule her out. I am friends with her. You misunderstood me."

These words are not very credible to Zhao Bingwan, after all, he heard Xu Lin say that he wanted to talk to Lin Yuner about his ideals.

He sighed bitterly, took out the lighter from his pocket, lit the cigarette with a snap, walked slowly to the wall at the entrance of the corridor, leaned his body up, exhaled the smoke and said at the same time:
"Actually, I have brought these children since I debuted in Girls' Generation, and it has been almost seven years now. It is a lie to say that I have no feelings for these children. Yoona is the child I grew up with. She is very kind. " Zhao Bingwan looked at the speechless Xu Lin, and said, "If possible, please let her go."

"...No, I'm a good person!" Xu Lin's mind was buzzing, why did he become a big villain, so he had to patiently explain: "I was sick last time, you misunderstood me."

"Did you promise to let Yun'er go?" Zhao Bingwan ignored his words, thinking that Xu Lin had agreed to him.

Managers are strict with artists, but from the emotional point of view, most managers will treat the artist as their sister after getting along with the artist, which shows that Zhao Bingwan is also a kind person.

Otherwise, he wouldn't joke about his career, since this matter has nothing to do with him.

Xu Lin is quite regretful now. After a moment of silence, his eyes lit up, the corners of his lips curled up, and he turned into the crooked mouth dragon king.

"Hmph! Let her go? What if she took the initiative?"

"...Impossible, Yoona is not that kind of person." Zhao Bingwan believed in his own eyesight, he couldn't see the wrong person.

This made Xu Lin laugh. He took out his cell phone and took a puff of cigarette, and asked him, "You don't believe me?"

"I don't believe it." Zhao Bingwan shook his head.

"Okay, just wait."

After finishing speaking, Xu Lin dialed Lin Yun'er's number, said a few words to his girlfriend in front of Zhao Bingwan, hung up, put the phone back into his trouser pocket, and put his arms around his chest.

The two of them didn't speak, and a slight chill permeated the white wall, causing the already cold temperature to drop again.

The misunderstanding must naturally be resolved, otherwise it will not be of any benefit to his future work, who knows what others will say.

About 10 minutes later, the door at the entrance of the corridor was gently pushed open. Lin Yuner, who was wearing sportswear, didn't come in directly, but poked her head out to look inside, and after finding Zhao Bingwan and Xu Lin, she said with a smile:

"Ouba, why are you with Director Xu?" She opened the door and walked in after saying that, with a displeased expression on her face.

Xu Lin knew it was because of the smell of smoke, so he didn't give Lin Yuner and Zhao Bingwan a chance to chat, so he immediately put on a straight face, pretending to shout directly: "Yuner, come here."

"Eh? What do you want?"

Although she said so, Lin Yuner walked over obediently and looked at Xu Lin in confusion.

Zhao Bingwan who was at the side was dumbfounded, thinking that they seemed to be familiar with each other, just as he was about to talk, he saw Xu Lin hugging Lin Yun'er in his arms, and then kissed her on the top of her head.

The explosion scene made Zhao Bingwan's eyes widen instantly, and suddenly thought of what Xu Lin had just said to him.

Could it be... Yuner really took the initiative?

Lin Yuner who was kissed blinked: "Ah, what are you doing, my manager Oppa is still here!"

After finishing speaking, she turned around with a guilty conscience and looked at Zhao Bingwan and said:
"Ouba, I..."

"You, you are confused, Yun'er!" Zhao Bingwan was furious, and he felt a feeling of hatred in his heart. Although our acting skills are not good and we have no face, we can't violate the unspoken rules of the director!

Forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, he raised his hand tremblingly and pointed in Lin Yun'er's direction: "You, you, you are worthy of the cultivation of the company! Ai Yigu, I am so angry, Asi."

"Ouba, what are you talking about?" Lin Yuner frowned and said, "Xu Lin is my boyfriend."

"Mo?! Boyfriend?" Zhao Bingwan's eyes widened.

"Yes, if you don't believe me, you can ask Taeyeon O'Neill. We have dated before. I heard from Xu Lin that you came here because of a misunderstanding about him. What's your situation? What's going on?"

Seeing that Lin Yun'er was about to get angry, Xu Lin grinned in embarrassment, and explained: "Last time I lied to your manager about unspoken rules about you, but I didn't expect him to take it seriously. I didn't mean it."

"..."

"..."

Zhao Bingwan and Lin Yun'er fell into silence. She knew about it, but she didn't expect that there would be a follow-up.

Originally, Lin Yuner was very busy these two days. In addition to running the schedule, she had to find time to learn Chinese conversation and decorate her house. It's not that she wasn't tired, but she just wanted to decorate it to her liking. She was so busy every day. Lin also made her mess up.

For a moment, the anger in her heart rose, she turned her head, stared at the culprit in front of her, and clenched her small fist quietly.But Xu Lin who found her angry quickly backed away and quickly defended:
"Hey! You can't hit people! I'm the director, and you'll have to act under me in the future!"

"Huh..." Lin Yun'er let out a long breath, and said through gritted teeth, "I don't want to hit anyone, so come here first."

"I, I don't!"

Looking at this scene, Zhao Bingwan, who was immersed in the circle, felt an absurd thought in his heart for some reason.

In the next second, his eyes widened.

Artists often pass by in the corridors, and sometimes trainees come to attend classes upstairs. The corridors, which are usually quiet, are not peaceful today. When the trainees pass by after class, they can faintly hear...

"Ah! If you pinch me again, I'll fight back! Oh, it's not fair! I'm the director! Ah! Don't pinch me!"

"Zhao Bingwan, what are you looking at, help me stop her! I'm the director! Ah! What are you doing~~~"

…………

In Girls' Generation's practice room, Lin Yuner started dancing to the sound of music, and the sound of shoes rubbing against the floor could be heard from time to time.

On the sofa not far away, Xu Lin grinned and covered his arm, which was bruised and purple. Zhao Bingwan next to him pursed his lips in fear, and turned to look at his bitter face.

"Director Xu, are you really Yuner's boyfriend? What's going on with you?"

"...We are a couple from the beginning." Xu Lin explained to Zhao Bingwan after finishing his speech: "Last time I said unspoken rules to see how your company behaves. Do you understand?"

"So it's like this... Let me just say, Director Xu, how can you play unspoken rules at such a young age."

"If she wanted to dive, she would dive into me. Didn't you see her pinch me just now? Also, why didn't you stop her for me!" Xu Lin showed a bitter look, and gave him an angry look.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Bingwan shook his head helplessly: "Director Xu, this is the first time I've seen her so angry."

"Huh? Today... what date is it?"

"Number 14, what's the matter?"

"Uh, it's all right."

Xu Lin who guessed the answer shook his head.

Today... really shouldn't make her angry.
