    Zhang Chengyuan woke up on time at 5 a.m. the next day. He had a schedule at 6 a.m. this morning, so he had to get up early.  Looking at Cheng Yuli who had just fallen asleep, he kissed her forehead gently and said softly: "Sister Yuli, I will rely on you in this life. Don't even think about running away. I will give you happiness."  This was not meant for Cheng Yuli to hear, but for himself.  Cheng Youli's eyelids moved but he didn't open them. He said tiredly: "You're so happy! I'm exhausted! Well, I won't cook for you today. It's up to you! Don't not eat! I know.  "?" She was not asleep at first, but she woke up after being touched lightly by Zhang Chengyuan, but she was too tired to get up and make breakfast for Zhang Chengyuan, so she had to let Zhang Chengyuan do it by himself.  Zhang Chengyuan was very moved when he saw that she was angry with him last night but still missed his breakfast this morning. However, he did not say any words of gratitude and just said: "I know, Sister Yuli, I will go to the street to have a good meal."  Yes. You should have a good rest!" After a pause, he added: "Sister Yuli, it's been a while since I heard you say bad words. It seems that you are really angry with me, but it doesn't matter. If you are angry, just say it to me.  , I will listen attentively. But you can't vent your anger on the staff around you, so as not to damage your perfect image. Okay, I'm leaving. If you have time at night, you must come with me again, you know!  Or I will sneak into your house and leave.  Cheng Yuli sighed deeply as he listened to his footsteps leaving, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.  After Zhang Chengyuan went out, he found a nearby roadside stall, sat down and had breakfast, eating enough food for three adults in one sitting.  Not long after he sat down, many fans or passers-by gathered around him to watch him eat and take photos of him eating with their mobile phones.  But Zhang Chengyuan did not leave in a hurry, but continued to eat calmly because he wanted to fulfill his previous promise to Cheng Yuli - to have a good meal on the street.  And these photos taken by the crowd of onlookers will go viral on the Internet in dozens of minutes or even just a few minutes, which can prove to Cheng Yuli that he means what he says and takes her words to heart.  After filling his stomach, Zhang Chengyuan smiled and said several times to the onlookers: "Good morning!" Then he drove away, ready to start his day's itinerary.  Nearly noon, Zhang Chengyuan drove to a cafe near the MBC TV station in Ruomi. He was going to meet with Director Li Yunzhen here. This meeting was agreed two days ago.  Director Lee Yun-jung was the director of the TV series "Taereung Contestant Village" starring Jang Sung-won and Li Zhen. She has a good relationship with Jang Sung-won. This time she asked Jang Sung-won to come out. When Jang Sung-won came, she would most likely invite him to participate in her new project.  TV drama.  Sure enough, the facts were as Zhang Chengyuan expected. After meeting, without a few words of greetings, director Li Yunzhen went straight to the point: "Chengyuan, I asked you to come out this time because I want you to be the star of the new TV series "Coffee Prince" that I am about to direct.  The leading actor of "The Shop"." He took out the script and handed it to Zhang Chengyuan.  She knew that Zhang Chengyuan's rule when accepting a film after he became famous was to read the script first before talking about anything else. If the script did not satisfy him, then there was no need to mention other conditions.  Zhang Chengyuan took the script, said sorry to Li Yunzhen, and then opened the script and read it quickly and seriously.  Li Yunzhen didn¡¯t interrupt, and sat quietly, drinking coffee and thinking about which actor should be more suitable to play other roles.  Zhang Chengyuan was the first actor she invited for this drama.  The reason for this is that Zhang Chengyuan has an outstanding image, superb acting skills, and his popularity remains high. The TV series he has starred in have never failed.  Secondly, she is a bit nostalgic. When she was still unknown, Zhang Chengyuan accepted her kind invitation and starred in the TV short drama "Taeling Contestant Village" directed by her at a reduced price, and also made this TV short drama  The great success also made her famous in the directing world. It is precisely because of this that she had the opportunity to direct the regular TV series "The First Shop of Coffee Prince".  After about an hour and a half, Zhang Chengyuan closed the script and said: "The script is very good, I like it very much! The subject matter may seem old-fashioned but very novel, and the plot is interesting and touching. If it is filmed well, it will definitely get high ratings."  If possible, I would like to give it a try!" Li Yunzhen smiled and said, "If you can participate, then this TV series will be half successful." Zhang Chengyuan said a few words modestly, and then asked: "Director, what is this show about?"  When will the filming begin? Li Yunzhen said: ¡°The plan is to start broadcasting on July 2, so filming must start before June at the latest!  It is planned to shoot about 16 episodes, which is expected to be completed around the end of August.  "She knew that Zhang Chengyuan was calculating the schedule to see if there was any possibility of taking the photo, so she explained the shooting time in detail. Zhang Chengyuan said: "June?  I may have to go abroad to film a movie in June, but I don¡¯t know if I still have time to take on this drama?  ¡± At the end of last year, Cheng Long invited him to participate in a new Hollywood movie?¡¯s audition, he agreed, and during his spare time while filming "Peak 3", he took the time to visit the film crew and successfully passed the audition, and was confirmed as the main villain of the film. The salary was quite high.  The number of scenes is not small, so if "Coffee Prince" starts shooting at the same time as that movie, then he may have to reluctantly give up the TV series, because after all, he has already accepted the movie invitation first.  At that moment, Zhang Chengyuan explained his difficulty in detail and apologized to Li Yunzhen.  After hearing this, Li Yunzhen said with regret: "That's such a pity! In that case, I won't bother you!" Zhang Chengyuan sighed and was about to return the script to Li Yunzhen, when suddenly a flash of fear flashed through his mind.  An inexplicable feeling came to my mind instantly, and I felt that if I gave up the performance of this TV series, I would regret it for a long time!  He was stunned for a while and suddenly said: "Director, please wait a moment. I have something to say. Can you please listen patiently?" Li Yunzhen said: "Of course! Please say it!" Zhang Chengyuan said: "I  I really like this script and I can't bear to miss it. If you can advance the filming date to March or early April, I will take over the drama and I will do my best to perform this TV series well. Please help me.  !" This was the first time he asked someone for such a thing, but in order to keep his mind calm and not regret it in the future, he had no choice but to do so.  Li Yunzhen thought about it for a while and said with some embarrassment: "I haven't prepared many related things. I can't guarantee that I can start filming this TV series in one or two months." Zhang Chengyuan asked again: "Please try it.  Give it a try!" Li Yunzhen said thoughtfully: "Okay, I'll try my best!" She also wants to work with Zhang Chengyuan again, so that her TV series will be more successful.  Zhang Chengyuan said: "Thank you very much, director!" He will keep this feeling in his heart and will definitely return it when he has the opportunity in the future!  Li Yunzhen said: "Sung Yuan, if you want to start filming early, you will have to face two major problems. One is that the actors have not been selected yet, especially the female lead! She is one of the keys to the success or failure of this drama. The other is that most of the funds are still available.  If it¡¯s not in place, I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to turn it on even if I want to.¡± Zhang Chengyuan said: ¡°If it¡¯s a financial problem, I can spend some money, about 3 billion. Although it¡¯s not enough to film a complete series, I think it can handle this kind of fashion for two months.  The drama shouldn¡¯t cost much money to make a historical drama, right?¡± Of the 3 billion Zhang Chengyuan received, 800 to 900 million was the salary for "Peak 3". Cheng Long negotiated a remuneration of 800,000 US dollars for him from the crew, which is almost 90,000 US dollars when converted into Korean won.  100 million.  Since Park Byung-yeol had almost no contribution in this drama, he did not ask Jang Sung-won for a share of the money, so almost all of the money went into Jang Sung-won's pocket.  ??The salary and dividends from the movie "Beauty's Trouble" totaled about 600 million. After being divided, Zhang Chengyuan also received 300 million.  Adding in various incomes that have been received at the end of the year, such as advertising endorsement fees, announcement fees, commercial promotions, etc., there are more than 800 million, which adds up to about 2 billion.  As for the remaining one billion, he was going to temporarily borrow it from Park Byung-yeol. He could definitely borrow this amount of money based on his friendship with Park Byung-yeol!  Originally, he could have raised it without borrowing the billion, as long as he took back part of the money that he had previously given to Lin Zhixiu for investment. However, Lin Zhixiu is very good at making money, and the billion would be enough to stay in her hands for three to five months.  It might become 1.3, 400 million or even more. How could he be willing to take it back?  It would be more cost-effective to borrow money. Park Binglie would be embarrassed to ask him to pay higher interest than the bank.  In addition, he also left some money to pay taxes and daily expenses. Otherwise, he would definitely spend more money!  The reason why he is willing to spend 3 billion won is because he is very optimistic about the future income of this TV series.  Hearing that Zhang Chengyuan was willing to spend 3 billion, Li Yunzhen was a little surprised and said: "If you save some 3 billion, you should be able to film about ten episodes of this kind of series! But this money should be almost your entire worth, right? You can  Aren't you afraid of losing everything all at once?" Zhang Chengyuan said: "I have confidence in the script, I have confidence in you as the director, and I have confidence in myself. Since I starred in the TV series, no TV series has failed!  After the broadcast, my 3 billion can be doubled." Li Yunzhen said: "I hope so! In addition, I and other related personnel will also find ways to raise money, and the funding problem will be almost solved.  What I have to consider now is the aspect of actors. I don¡¯t have a clue about the other aspects. It¡¯s just an open recruitment, but the number one female lead, the second female lead, and the second male lead have to be chosen carefully.  Do you have any candidates to recommend? "She has great trust in Jang Chengyuan's vision and character, and knows that he will never recommend people randomly. Jang Chengyuan recommended Li Zhenlai to her before when filming "Taeling Contestant Village"  PlayAs the heroine, she thought Zhang Chengyuan was selfish at the time, but after starting filming, she discovered that Li Zhen was indeed very suitable for that role, and she worked very well with Zhang Chengyuan, which not only improved the quality of the TV series, but also saved a lot of filming time.  At this time, she hoped that Zhang Chengyuan could recommend him again to solve this big trouble for her.  Zhang Chengyuan said: "I don't know many actresses. If you have to recommend me, I would recommend" The looks of all the sisters flashed through his mind, and he compared their temperaments and personality traits, and finally  Said: "Yin Eun Hye!" Then he continued: "But whether she is suitable or not depends on the director and the screenwriter to judge! In addition, I have no way of knowing whether she will take over this TV series!" If  He insisted that Yoon Eun Hye participate in this drama, and Yoon Eun Hye wouldn't refuse if he thought about it, but he didn't want to force Yoon Eun Hye on this kind of thing.  Li Yunzhen pondered: "Yin Eun Hye? She is taller than ordinary women and very strong. She is called a strong girl. Maybe she is really suitable for playing the role of Go Eun Chan, a woman disguised as a man. And she is very popular now.  Inviting her to appear will definitely help the ratings a lot. Chengyuan, thank you for your recommendation. I will consider it carefully and ask the crew to give her a try. " Zhang Chengyuan said, "I should be the one thanking you!  Eun Hye is my good sister. I would be even happier if the crew could use her." Li Yunzhen added, "So, do you have any good candidates for the second female lead and the second male lead?" Zhang Chengyuan shook his head and said, "No!"  He won't say it, because he feels that one should do things in moderation. He has already recommended one, and if he recommends any more, he will go beyond his duty.  Moreover, the image of the second female lead in the script does not seem to be likable. There is no need to let someone she likes play the role, lest she accidentally ruin her screen image.  After discussing the matter with Li Yunzhen, Zhang Chengyuan stayed in the car for a while and then continued to catch up with the announcement.  After finishing all his travels that night, he met with Park Byung-yeol and mentioned the matter of borrowing money. Park Byung-yeol immediately agreed to lend him one billion won.  ¡°Then, he went to Lin Zhixiu¡¯s apartment and called Lin Zhixiu back, who was still dealing with matters outside. He unblocked her meridians and taught her a set of exercises that could keep her in good health and slightly increase her mental strength.  After doing this, he couldn't help but get interested and be frivolous towards Lin Zhixiu, disturbing her heart, but he still didn't break her body.  Not only because Park Sun Young was sleeping next door, Lin Ji Soo couldn't help but resisted fiercely, but also because Jang Cheng Yuan suddenly didn't want her for the time being.  The reason for this is naturally because he is afraid that Cheng Yuli will become even more angry when he finds out!  He had to wait until Cheng Yuli forgot or let go of the matter before he could attack Lin Zhixiu. Anyway, Lin Zhixiu would never be able to escape his grasp in this life, so there was no need to rush.  After returning home late at night, Zhang Chengyuan was delighted to see Cheng Yuli again. She was dozing off on a chair in the dining room, with several covered dishes next to her.  Zhang Chengyuan was deeply moved and felt that he was so lucky to have a beautiful, kind-hearted, gentle and considerate woman like Cheng Yuli by his side in this life!  Moreover, he not only has Cheng Yuli, but also has several other good women who can rival or are slightly inferior to Cheng Yuli.  A man can be with so many beauties throughout his life. Even if he cannot become an immortal, what's the regret?  Hearing the sound of Zhang Chengyuan coming back, Cheng Youli woke up, greeted him lukewarmly, and then said: "Let's have supper! After eating, clean up." He stood up with a tired look on his face.  Zhang Chengyuan grabbed her and asked, "Sister Yuli, where do you want to go?" He was worried that she would go home.  "I'm sleepy and want to go back to my room to sleep. Don't bother me tonight." Zhang Chengyuan said, "I'll leave later. I have something to say to you." Cheng Youli glanced at him and nodded when he saw his determined expression.  : "Okay, you go ahead and I'll listen." He sat down.  Zhang Chengyuan coughed and asked with some embarrassment: "Sister Yuli, have you told Sister Xiaoli and the others that I want to pursue other women?" Cheng Yuli did not answer, pondered for a while, and asked: "You  I'm afraid it's not just this idea, maybe there are other women already, right?" She has had this suspicion since yesterday.  Zhang Chengyuan was startled for a moment, but stopped talking.  As soon as he saw his expression, Cheng Youli knew that he had told the truth. He became more and more angry, raised his fist, and wanted to beat Zhang Chengyuan, but then he sighed, lowered his hand, and scolded: "You  What a big bastard!" What if I beat Zhang Chengyuan?  I'm afraid that not only won't it make her happy, but it might make her even more uncomfortable.  But Zhang Chengyuan really wanted her to hit him a few times, the harder the better, so that he might feel better.  The two of them were silent, each thinking about their own thoughts.After a while, Cheng Youli said softly: "I won't tell Sister Hyori and the others about this for the time being." She hasn't decided yet whether to tell the other sisters about it, because she is also worried about her three sisters, especially Lee Hyori.  , the reaction after hearing this would be too intense, which would affect the relationship between the four of them and Zhang Chengyuan.  Although she was angry with Zhang Chengyuan, she had not thought about leaving Zhang Chengyuan, and they had not reached the point of breaking up.  Of course, this is just her idea. Maybe Lee Hyori won¡¯t react too radically after knowing about it. Maybe she will only be angry for a while, and then she will be willing to spare Jang Sung-won¡¯s stubbornness.  After all, Zhang Chengyuan's wrapping skills can be regarded as the best in the world. The four girls can't hide even if they want to, and his face is so thick that even bullets can't penetrate it. Even if the four girls scold him, he can bear it.  .  Hearing this, Zhang Chengyuan said happily: "Sister, thank you." Cheng Youli said coldly: "Don't be too happy too early, sisters will know about this sooner or later. How will you end it?" Zhang Chengyuan said eagerly: "You  Sister Li, can you help me to persuade Sister Hyori? "Li Zhen obviously won't blame him too much, and Ok Zhuxuan looks tough, but in fact he has a very soft character, and he can't stand it in a few seconds.  The key to being able to deal with her is Lee Hyori, who is not very easy to talk to.  He has always been most afraid of Li Xiaoli. He didn't dare or didn't want to bear her anger unless he had to.  Besides him, Lee Hyori loves Seong Yuri the most, and Seong Yuri is his real wife in the future. As long as Seong Yuri is willing to help him persuade Lee Hyori, then Lee Hyori's anger can definitely be reduced by three points, or even more.  Cheng Youli said angrily: "Don't you think you are too much and too shameless?" Zhang Chengyuan pretended to be pitiful and said: "I also know that I am very shameless and too much, but Sister Youli, other than this method, I really don't know  How should I persuade Sister Hyori? She might kill me in anger." Cheng Yuli glared at him and said, "If that happens, that would be great. There will be one less bad man in the world."  Zhang Chengyuan continued to plead: "Sister Yuli, please take pity on me. I will give you a backbeat and massage every day, okay?" Cheng Yuli said disdainfully: "I'm afraid you don't want to do this kind of thing, right?" "Then  I'll ride on you as a horse? Or pretend to be a puppy to make you laugh, woof woof" Cheng Youli tried his best to tense up his facial muscles, but still couldn't help laughing softly, "You scoundrel, what are you yelling about?  ?¡± ¡°I¡¯m trying to please my mistress!¡±¡­ Maybe being shameless is also a skill that can influence a woman¡¯s heart; maybe women think it¡¯s a sign of love for a capable man to put aside his pride to please her.  .  As soon as Jang Cheng Yuan put down his posture, Cheng Yuli relented and promised to help him persuade Lee Hyori.  Zhang Chengyuan was very happy and thought to himself: "To deal with the four sisters, being shameless and shameless is more effective. If you make the sisters angry again in the future, you will have to use this trick!" I have to say that Zhang Chengyuan's shame is really strange sometimes.  Extremely thick.  After using this move, he didn't feel embarrassed at all. In his heart, the four sisters were more precious than his life, so a little face was nothing, since no one else saw it.  It doesn't matter even if someone sees him, as long as he can make his sisters happy and let them continue to love him, it's all worth it!  To be honest, although he is very capable, he is just an ordinary man who longs for love!  Of course, Jang Sung-won will only use this trick on the four Fin.k.l girls, plus at most a few sisters such as Kim Tae-hee and Ha Ji-won. As for other women, no matter how much he loves or likes them, he will  It is absolutely impossible to do this!  For other women, he prefers to use strong methods.
