Chapter 52: Why Don't You Praise Your Own People?

Speaking of which, you may not believe it, but the hottest imported films in the mainland in recent years, in addition to Hollywood productions, are Korean movies.

"Daisy" sold 13 million, "Ugly Girl Turns Over" sold 16 million, "Han River Monster" sold 16 million...

Ranked in the top 30 of the year!

In the current Chinese film market, breaking 10 million can already be said to be a 'big hit'...

Of course, we all know that in the next few years, Korean films did not sell well in the Chinese market, and the highest record of "Snowpiercer" was 75.69 million, and it did not even enter the top 50...

But in recent years, Korean films have indeed been exported to China.

Very strong.

Coupled with films such as "Old Boy" and "Drunken Painting Fairy", the progress of Korean films is indeed enviable!

Therefore, Shen Mengxi's script was taken by the Korean film company, and he was invited to be the producer, and people of insight in the industry were still very convinced.

Those who don't have much knowledge, can't watch Korean movies at all, and they will never be able to make works with strong cultural and historical momentum like "Farewell My Concubine" and "Red Sorghum"...

People won the Oscar!

No matter how much you look down on it, "Parasite" has achieved a historic breakthrough for Korean and Asian films, and it is also the first non-English best film in Oscar history.

Historical place here!

......

Shen Mengxi got in the car and left, Zhang Xiaobei and Gu Xiao looked at his back and sighed: "I knew before that he would definitely be able to mix it up, but I didn't expect it to be so fast!"

"People have the ability and resources, unlike us, so let's stay up!"

"By the way, Li Shaohong's "Sister Love", are you going?"

"Go, why don't you go, since they sent an invitation, they are not afraid of our real evaluation!"

They talked for a long time before they each took a taxi and left...

Originally, it was good to go to K song, but the singing voices of these people belong to the east and west wings, and the rooms have collapsed - all that is left is ugly (south hall)!

Shen Mengxi is okay, but he doesn't have the habit of listening to noise...

It was Jiang Nan and his group who went to a KTV, chartered the largest box, and enjoyed themselves...

"Finally made this decision

I don't care what others say

As long as you're just as sure

I'm willing to go with you to the ends of the earth..."

Zhou Yang put aside his intoxicated voice, and Jiang Nan was chatting with Liu Tianxian in a whisper.

"I listened to Liming and Mengxi's analysis, the Chinese film production center will soon be transferred to the mainland, and there will be a large number of new directors and new actors on the throne... The status of Hong Kong cinema will be relegated to the fringes of the Chinese-language film industry..."

"I don't recommend you to go to Hong Kong to develop!"

"And it's too chaotic in Hong Kong, let's not talk about anything else, let's just talk about Dong Jie, she signed Wang Jiawei's Zedong Film and Television back then, and now it is a second-tier paste..."

Liu Tianxian listened carefully to what she said, but still shook his head: "However, I don't have much chance to stay in the mainland..."

"Why don't you have a chance? Last time we asked you to make a cameo appearance in "People in Embarrassment", do you think it's just greedy for your fame?"

Yes!

"That's not the case, we want to redefine your personality, you can't always take the immortal route, you can try to change your shape..."

"Transformation?"

"That's right, I'm an artist agent now, I learned a lot from a few seniors, and I also read a lot of books, artists need a new image at every age..."

Jiang Yiyan suddenly sat down: "What are you two muttering?"

Jiang Nan: "It's nothing, just talk about Qianqian's situation in Japan..."

She doesn't like girls like Jiang Yiyan very much...

I always feel that there is something hidden behind the gentleness, so I haven't been very close to her.

However, Liu Yifei did Jiang Nan's words, thoughtfully...

......

Shen Mengxi received a call from Xijie and reported to him the casting of "Rose Red Lotus"...

The living environment of Korean actors is much more difficult than that of mainland actors, but anyone who can get out of the way, not to mention the character or anything, the acting skills are still there...

In terms of casting, Shen Mengxi didn't interfere much, but just proposed a few candidates: Han Chaeyoung, Jun Ji-hyun, Han Jia-jin and Song Hye Kyo...

He likes Han Jiaren more, she is good-looking, and she is a wife...

However, Xijie didn't invite Han Jiaren, but wavered between Song Hye Kyo and Han Chaeyoung...

Probably to make Shen Mengxi decide...

Try their skills...

It's pretty good, I know that I leave the decision to the producer!

As for Jun Ji-hyun, there's no chance...

She is already the most expensive batch of artists in South Korea - a "My Sassy Girlfriend" is enough for her to eat for ten years!

The actor found Huang Zhengming according to Shen Mengxi's request, without him, Shen Mengxi likes this uncle very much, "You Are My Destiny", after being opened by Quan Duyan, his acting skills and popularity rose very much, and then he became the Mesozoic troika of Zhongwu Road...

"How did Kim Sae-ron perform in the audition?"

"Very good, that's good... I'll go to Korea the day after tomorrow and we'll talk about it later!"

"Hmm... By the way, I heard that Laurie MacDonald is looking for a suitable remake, she's been interested in Asian horror films lately, and you asked your company to help me make an appointment with her!"

"An American producer, the producer who bought the rights to remake "Midnight Bell", how come you don't even know about her?"

"Of course, I asked her to sell the adaptation rights of "Rose Red Lotus"..."

"The success rate should be okay, she's interested in this kind of ethical horror..."

"Well, don't publish this news yet, and we'll talk about it when it's almost done!"

The person who contacted him was the manager of the Chinese branch of Xijie Entertainment, who seemed to be called Lu Renjia...

Hanging up the phone, Shen Mengxi was ready to take a shower, and then went to the company to see, there was no time to participate in the casting - they can't be allowed to mail the candidates to South Korea!

But you can also learn more about it through the photos...

If you want to be cute, Da Mi Mi and Huang Shengyi can do it, but they shouldn't come to audition, one is Rong Xingda's signed artist, and the other is a rich wife...

I don't know who will audition.

Looking forward to it!

After taking a shower and changing into a clean suit, Shen Mengxi opened the door, and there was someone at the door...

Chen Liming and Jiang Nan, the two of them are still carrying breakfast in their hands...

“... Liming, Sister Nan... Why are you two coming over now?"

Chen Liming entered the house: "I have something to do with you!"

"What can't be said in the company?"

Jiang Nan replied: "We want to talk to you about the company's artist management." ”

Shen Mengxi took the breakfast handed by Chen Liming, opened it and looked at it, soy milk + fritters and buns, he was a little hungry, he took a bite of the big meat bun, and his mouth was full of meat foam: "No... Didn't you say that you are in charge of the artist's management, I won't be involved!"

"That's not good, you are also a partner of the company, accounting for 25% of the shares, we must get your consent before we can continue!"

“... My advice is not to be an artist agent, it's thankless!"

Jiang Nan said: "I'm ready to retire to the background, and in the future, I will specialize in being an agent and occasionally act in a play..."

"Are you serious?"

"That's right, I think it's more rewarding to push people to the top than to be popular!"

Shen Mengxi smiled slightly...

How to say it, Sister Nan has a very clear understanding of herself, of course her appearance belongs to the good-looking type, otherwise the rich second-generation Chen Liming would not look down on her, but her good-looking belongs to that kind of gentle appearance, her facial features are not three-dimensional enough and she has a square face, which is not prominent enough on the big screen, and she is not very good-looking on camera.

It's a bit difficult for her to reach the top by relying on movies like this.

is transformed into an agent, relying on Mingxi's resources, maybe he can win one or two top stars...

Chen Liming simply said directly: "In short, we want Zhang Hanyun to play the little fox!"

“... She doesn't have acting skills!"

"You can learn, there are still four months before the start-up, and we will arrange a teacher for her!"

"No, let's just find an actor..."

Shen Mengxi was quite speechless, why are you so fond of sweet and sour?

Jiang Nan asked directly: "Why don't you praise your own people?"

"Why give good resources to outsiders?"
