Chapter 65: You Lead Me to Act
Jing Shan smiled sweetly in his sleep. Han Mingjin left a kiss on his forehead, gently covered him with the quilt, and then turned around and tiptoed towards the door.
However, before he could ask for credit from the women, a young couple took the lead in coming over and shaking hands with Han Mingjin: "Hello Han Mingjinxi, we are Jingshan's parents. Han Mingjin was stunned for a moment, and then shook hands and saluted: "Hello, first meeting." ”
Jingshan's mother stepped forward with a smile: "I used to think that you just liked to write pop songs, but I didn't expect you to sing children's songs so well, Jingshan always doesn't like to sleep...... When will you release this song, I will definitely buy it. ”
Han Mingjin smiled and thanked him, but suddenly he was stunned: "You...... Did you hear me sing "Baby"? How did you hear it?" Jingshan's father smiled: "It turns out that this song is called "Baby", it is really appropriate. ”
Immediately, Jingshan's father looked puzzled: "There is a camera in the bedroom, aren't you recording a show...... Oh, I see, it must be a hidden camera, right? ”
Han Mingjin turned his head to look at Girls' Generation with a strange face with a shocked expression: "So what you said in the bedroom just now...... You all hear that?" the women looked at each other, pursed their lips and smiled and bowed their heads.
Han Mingjin suddenly squinted his eyes and turned his head to look at PD: "Hidden camera? Hehe, you have a kind of, dare to play this game with me." ”
Han Mingjin stepped forward with a hideous expression and grabbed PD's collar: "Do you know that what I hate the most is the hidden camera? The last time someone played this, the end was ......"
Lin Yun'er hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Han Mingjin away: "Ah, this is what we all agree on, and besides, if you don't have any camera, will you do it?"
Han Mingjin held his breath for a while, and kept his face calm and did not speak. Song Jifan stepped forward to appease the pale PD, and then said with a respectful expression: "President, Xu PD has already contacted their minister and agreed to go to SBS now to hand over the master tape to us, and they will take it back to deal with the playback when the editing is finished." ”
Han Mingjin was stunned: "Oh?" Han Mingjin frowned in embarrassment, and then looked up at Song Jifan: "That's ...... Wouldn't it be a bit of a bully?" Song Jifan was stunned and did not answer.
You can't be shameless like this. Xiuying chuckled, and was punched by Jessica's frown.
Han Mingjin stepped forward with a smile and patted Xu PD on the shoulder: "Old Xu, then let's do it." You can rest assured that SBS is very efficient. We will compensate you for the time you lost. ”
Han Mingjin turned his head to look at Song Ki-beom: "Then I'll leave it to you." After the work is over, let Ha Jinyeol be in charge of finding someone to invite everyone to have a good meal, and I will leave first. ”
After that, Han Mingjin said goodbye to Jingshan's parents, who had already looked stupid, and left the room with the girls' generation who packed their bags. As soon as he got home, Han Mingjin smirked and wanted to explain what he had just said to the girls.
After all...... When I think about it, I am angry, angry with that PD, and angry with myself. He and Jingshan have been locked in the house for so long, how can people wait just to coax their children to sleep?
It's just that I don't participate in variety shows after all, and I forgot that there is such a thing as a hidden camera. Although the part of the talk will definitely be cut, these parties can't hide from it anyway.
Han Mingjin sighed secretly, and didn't think about explaining. Let's do it according to the old rules. He knelt down lightly on the sofa, covered his head and pouted his buttocks, and said in a muffled voice: "I will talk to Guo Zairong about filming later." So try not to slap your face, anywhere else. ”
The girls who had been staring at Han Mingjin with strange expressions from the moment they entered the door couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Han Mingjin's performance, and then laughed. They screamed and stepped forward to throw Han Mingjin down on the sofa.
Lin Yun'er pursed her lips and smiled at Han Mingjin, who was overwhelmed by the women, glared at him with disgust, ignored his pleas for help, turned around and walked towards her room with a smile.
Entering the MBC hall, Han Mingjin ushered in strange eyes along the way. But he just walked happily, regardless of what they thought. I was really impatient and scolded a few people who couldn't control their eyes, and then walked towards his office.
Shortly after he sat down, there was a knock at the door. The chubby girl brought in a middle-aged man in his fifties. The middle-aged man just held Han Mingjin's outstretched hand, and without waiting to speak, he looked at Han Mingjin's face in a daze, and stopped talking.
Han Mingjin pouted: "You are old, you won't understand this kind of young people's taste." I said, Lao Guo, don't I leave all the new films to you? Why do you keep calling one after another?"
The middle-aged man smiled helplessly. This person is none other than South Korea's top film director Kwak Jae-yong. Han Mingjin has never seen the movie in this life, but he ...... in the previous life
Guo Zairong sat at the table and handed over a handkerchief: "Erase it." After all, you're also the president of several large companies, so what's the point of wandering around the streets with your lip prints on your face? That scandal of yours has just subsided, can't you stop for a few days?"
Han Mingjin's expression was surprised: "It seems that I don't know you very well, right? Have we reached the point where we can talk about these private matters?" The middle-aged man smiled playfully: "Then have we reached the point where we can talk about age casually?"
Han Mingjin smiled and personally delivered the tea sent by the fat girl to Guo Zairong: "It's hurting, it's hurting." Come and try it, the best West Lake Longjing. Guo Zairong didn't dwell on it, and took a few sips of the teacup.
It's just that after drinking tea, Guo Zairong couldn't help but recall the experience of knowing this kid. The meaning of the English name Colin may not be familiar to other Koreans, but it has always been the object of great attention for me.
Think about it, it has been more than two years since I invited him to return to China to cooperate. From the time he made his first film in the United States, he began to pay attention to him, and by the way, he also paid attention to his legendary experience.
If it weren't for his repeated secrecy, I'm afraid that South Korea, which is extremely nationalist, would have made this half-Korean figure who had been a trainee at S.M. for nine years in the company already made public.
People in the Republic of Korea are definitely capable of putting gold in their faces, even though they are also authentic Koreans, so they shouldn't say that. The real meeting time has not been long, but the two have already become extremely familiar friends.
Especially when Guo Zairong knew Han Mingjin's identity at the beginning, although Han Mingjin just asked him to keep it secret, the other party seemed to have decided that he was a special existence, for Guo Zairong.
Han Mingjin doesn't matter, who is Guo Zairong? Of course, it's a good thing to be able to treat himself as a friend. Since they are friends, Han Mingjin's problem with his acquaintances is no longer rigid.
He put a kind, majestic, in short, all good images in one Director Guo Da, who was stunned, and his temper grew. It made the staff around me confused. After a long time, Guo Zairong got used to it.
Putting down the teacup, Guo Zairong looked at Han Mingjin who was wiping his lip prints with a serious expression: "Tell you something serious." The script for this movie is very good, and that's what I said when you gave me the script. And the director, you have found the right person, except for you, the director is none other than me. ”
"Pounce!" Guo Zairong paused, ignored the bastard who squirted tea in his mouth on the other side, frowned and continued: "I thought about it again yesterday and found that there are still many problems. I'll start with the script. Although there has not been a film with this theme since the revival of Korean cinema, after all, South Korea has a long history of machismo, and the progress of emancipating women is still far worse than that of China. Now you're determined to use the concept of savage women, and the subject matter is very novel. That's why I'm optimistic about this movie......"
Han Mingjin threw the handkerchief to Guo Zairong: "You just say but." Guo Zairong took the handkerchief, frowned and nodded: "But in addition to the idea, there are some plots in it...... Seems a bit old-fashioned. I don't know if you can understand that. ”
Can you not understand? It was originally a copy of the movie directed by him in 2000 in the previous life, although this theme has not appeared in this life, and there has never been a similar one. But after all, it's a bit of a move from ten years ago to ten years later......
However, Han Mingjin didn't make a sound, and motioned for Guo Zairong to continue. Guo Zairong subconsciously wiped the sweat on his forehead. I don't care about, but if I talk to him about movies, I really don't seem to have much confidence.
Don't look at your status in South Korea, and don't look at the other party's underage. But with a person who can stand up in Hollywood in the United States and can make all kinds of world-famous directors and superstars obedient, especially MGM's major shareholder, his so-called qualifications and ideas are really not enough.
In particular, Guo Jae-yong is still a Korean director who knows the most about Han Mingjin's directing style on the set. Just last year, he took the time to go to the United States, and that fierce style still makes him unforgettable.
Since I've already said it, let's say it all. Guo Zairong thought for a while and then said: "There is also something about the film company. It stands to reason that you shouldn't make such a low-level mistake. It's like this in every country, making a movie doesn't mean throwing money at it. The studio, the equipment, the setup, the final editing and promotion of the film, and the most important cinema for which the film will be screened, you don't have to be sure. If this problem is not solved, you will not be able to make it by the end of next year, let alone want to release it on Valentine's Day in a few months. I'd like to ask, have you considered any of this?"
Han Mingjin touched his nose and didn't speak. Guo Zairong sat up straight: "In the end, it's about time." As I said, you want to release it in a few months, but filming hasn't started yet. Even if we work overtime, there is a problem that you don't seem to have considered. The weather is getting colder by the day. And the scenes and plot of this movie are not all filmed in winter. With our schedule cycle, it's definitely going to be done over the winter. You say, 'How are we going to overcome this natural cause?'
Han Mingjin pondered for a while, frowned and raised his head: "Finished?" Guo Zairong drank all the tea in the teacup, and then exhaled: "It's over." ”
Han Mingjin took out a contract and a check: "This is 10 million US dollars." Filming a romance movie with no stunts and big scenes is enough for the expenses. It's a contract, and you, as the director, can have a 10 percent share of the box office. ”
Guo Zairong took the check and contract blankly: "What do you mean?" Han Mingjin shrugged: "It's obvious." I've got you covered with this movie. I believe that the funds and the remuneration given to you will definitely satisfy you, as for the question you just mentioned...... It's all up to you to figure it out. I want to give you enough remuneration and funds to settle all the difficulties for you, a great director who has been working in Korea for so many years, right?"
Guo Zairong stood up in astonishment: "What do you mean...... Are you going to leave it alone?" Han Mingjin helplessly spread his hands: "I am the president of two TV stations and two entertainment companies, hundreds of thousands of dollars a second." It's hard enough to find time to make a movie, let alone solve the problems you mentioned. You should also be considerate of me......"
Guo Zairong angrily threw the contract and check on the table: "Bastard! You are busy, what kind of movie are you making when you are busy? If you are busy, why do you have to catch up with the release on Valentine's Day? You say!"
Han Mingjin frowned and knocked on the table: "Pay attention to the wording, dare to point at my nose and say that I don't know how much I am lying at the bottom of the Han River, do you really think that I am just a movie-maker?
Guo Zairong paused, sat down indignantly, and pouted half-loudly: "It's useless for you to threaten me." Besides, you've got to give me a reason. It makes me feel a little motivated while solving problems. ”
Han Mingjin chuckled and shook his head, the person in front of him was forced to become an old child by himself: "The reason ...... Isn't it in your hand?" Guo Zairong was stunned for a moment, picked up the handkerchief that had been confiscated and looked at it, with a puzzled expression.
Suddenly, Guo Zairong looked at the lip print that had just been rubbed by Han Mingjin with a surprised expression, and pointed at Han Mingjin and said, "You...... You won't be, for them?"
Han Mingjin nodded: "To be precise, it's for her." Han Mingjin waved his hand and interrupted Guo Zairong, who was about to speak: "I won't embarrass you." Theaters can find Lotte Entertainment and let them solve the screening problem. What about the studio...... When I came to Korea, I had already set up a film company, which is a subsidiary of MGM in Korea, and you can look for them for filming. Now there is a movie starring Brother Yuan Bin that is also filmed by them. As for the scene and weather, give you this check and use it. Go to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand and Hainan Island to choose the subtropical scenery. The climate there is pleasant, and it is possible to shoot summer episodes. Of course, these are the suggestions I gave, and you have to coordinate the specific handling. As for the question of the script...... You're the director, so let's revise it. You know Korean movies better than I do. And I don't really have the time either. How's that going? I think I have a clue now, right?"
Guo Zairong lowered his head and thought for a while, and finally shook his head and stood up with a wry smile: "You are really ...... How to say it in Chinese, for Bo Hongyan smiled, the beacon fire can play the princes. Han Mingjin's expression was vicious: "There must be a limit to worshipping Chinese culture, and I don't know what to say...... Beware of cerebral congestion!"
