After hearing Zheng Xiyi's words, Ha Ji Won raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "Zheng Xiyi, do you think NUNA still cares about the awards of the three major film festivals in South Korea now?"

Zheng Xiyi's heart moved, and he had a bolder guess, and couldn't help but look at Ha Zhiyuan with wide eyes, and only after a while did he sigh, lowered his eyelids and whispered: "It turns out that Sister Zhiyuan, you want to be an international actress, the idea is very good, it's just ...... It's a pity that the film won't be sent to any major international film festivals, not to mention the three major European film festivals like Cannes, Venice and Berlin, and all A-category international film festivals won't participate. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"MO?!" Ha Ji Won Huo Ran got up, even the chair behind him was knocked over, and he glared at Zheng Xiyi with a look of disbelief, "Xiyi, are you kidding?

The people in the practice room were scattered around to clean up, even Daniel Zhang and Liu Xianyu were recycling important equipment such as cameras, so there were no idlers around them, but everyone was still startled by Ha Ji Won's screams and the huge impact of the chair falling on the floor, and they all stopped their movements and looked back.

Zheng Xiyi glanced at the room, waved his hand and said loudly: "It's okay, Sister Zhiyuan and I just have a little disagreement on performance, you continue to be busy with yours." ”

Ha Ji Won also hurriedly nodded and apologized, "Crisp Song, I didn't control my emotions and disturbed everyone." ”

Daniel Zhang frowned and looked at Ha Zhiyuan, feeling somewhat uneasy, but these high-definition digital cameras were borrowed from the company, but they were not ordinary expensive, and he was not worried about letting a few girls recycle, so he had to press the worry in his heart and say loudly to Zheng Xiyi: "Director Xiyi, Crisp Songmida, I will clean her up after I finish collecting these things." ”

Then he shouted to Ha Ji Won: "Ah, if you don't apologize to Director Xiyi, what is there to argue, can you compare with the Oscar winner and Venice actor in terms of acting skills?!"

Zheng Xiyi smiled and nodded at Daniel Zhang, Ha Zhiyuan was so angry that she stared at her, but Daniel Zhang Dazheng stared at her luck, she could only suppress the fire and said in a low voice: "Crisp Song Hamida ......"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a small disagreement, it's not an argument, Director Zhang, don't blame Sister Zhiyuan, the more you argue, the clearer the truth becomes. Zheng Xiyi said with a smile, a generous look that can tolerate the world's affairs.

"Look, it really deserves to be an international superstar, Zhiyuan, you give me a good lesson!" Daniel Zhang did not hesitate to make up for it.

Ha Ji Won, who was cut down by his own agent and covered in blood, stomped his feet angrily, turned around and helped his chair up and sat down heavily, turned his head to stare at Zheng Xiyi and gritted his teeth and said: "International superstar, Oscar winner, Venice actor Zheng Xiyi, director NIM, come, let's talk about that little disagreement!"

Zheng Xiyi smiled, didn't tease her again, and looked around everyone who had started to tidy up again and didn't pay attention to the two of them anymore, so he whispered: "I'm not joking, Xu Youzhen has not decided on the actor, but it is true that this film will not participate in any A-class international film festivals, this is the final agreement I reached with the church." ”

"Final Agreement...... I see......" Ha Ji Won finally understood, lowered his head and muttered silently.

Zheng Xiyi looked at Ha Ji Won and squinted slightly, if Ha Ji Won no longer mentions the topic of starring Xu Youzhen, then his relationship with Ha Ji Won in the future will only be maintained within the scope of ordinary relatives, it is not a bad thing to have utilitarian intentions, but there is no need to make too deep friends with only utilitarian hearts, because everyone is just using each other.

Ha Ji Won only pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said firmly: "Forget it, even if I can't participate in any film festivals, I am willing to appear in this movie, I heard that Kong Liu XI is zero pay to act?

Zheng Xiyi exhaled lightly, and his evaluation of Ha Ji Won was a few points higher. There are many people who have the ability, but there are not many people who have the ability and love and are not afraid of the powerful, otherwise Kong Liu and Kong Zhiyong would not have run all over Chungmu Road and could not find a film company willing to shoot "The Melting Pot", not to mention anything else, the Kang Digui Film Company founded by Kang Digui, one of the most famous directors in South Korea, is on Chungwu Road, Kong Liu has not been there, and the result is not rejected. Although Ha Ji Won already knew that Jung Hee-yi had reached a compromise with the church, as an actor, with a company and an agent on it, it was impossible to be as free as the major film companies, and it was already a great thing to be able to take the initiative to ask for zero pay to play the role.

But it's a pity that Zheng Xiyi can only refuse Ha Ji Won, "Crisp Song Hamida, Sister Ji Yuan, it's not that I don't want you to play, but my agreement with the church stipulates that I can't invite any first-line or super first-line actor to play any role in this movie, including myself." ”

Ha Zhiyuan suddenly froze, looked at Zheng Xiyi for a long time before he let out a long sigh, shook his head helplessly and said: "No need to apologize, Xiyi, I can't blame you for this, it's because I don't have the courage of Kong Liu XI, and I didn't come to you when I heard about this at the beginning." ”

Zheng Xiyi is quite regretful, but he is also quite happy, he does not have many relatives among Korean artists, and even fewer actors, that is, Cha Taehyun, Sung Youli, Zhang Dongjian, Lee Byung-hun and other handful of people, and now he can finally meet a new relative, how can he not be happy.

After taking a few deep breaths, Ha Ji Won put the regret of not being able to appear in "The Melting Pot" behind him, and immediately switched to gossip mode, and began to pester Zheng Xiyi to tell him how to get to know Kong Liu and Kong Zhiliu, how to decide to invest in "The Crucible", how to force the church to compromise in the end, and so on, Zheng Xiyi smiled helplessly, and silently complained in his heart: Sure enough, women are the most fickle species in the world!

Since the church invited Qin Zhangtai to come out, Zheng Xiyi had to return a favor to him no matter what considerations, firstly, the old gentleman had supported himself at the beginning, secondly, the old gentleman's character was also worth his step back, and thirdly, it was not in the long-term interests to confront the church for a long time, so in the end, he still had a private meeting with the church representatives, and the two sides took a step back and compromised with each other and reached an agreement.

The church finally accepted Zheng Xiyi's suggestion, no longer obstructed the formation, filming and release of the "Crucible" crew, and even symbolically invested 10% of the funds, and recommended director Hwang Dong-hyuk to direct and become one of the producers of the film.

At the same time, Zheng Xiyi himself can only be an investor and not a producer, nor can he act as an actor, Zheng Xiyi's name cannot appear on the subtitles, and he cannot invite first-line and super first-line actors to play the roles in the film, because if there is a top actor like Zheng Xiyi to star, then it is actually meaningless to do the movie promotion, and the effect of the spontaneous publicity of these top actors will be terrifying. In addition, after the filming of the film is completed, there can be no large-scale publicity activities, let alone participate in any A-category international film festival, as for the three major film festivals in South Korea, with the energy of the church, there are naturally 10,000 ways to make "The Melting Pot" not get important awards.

The final agreement reached between Zheng Xiyi and the church seems to be a loss to him, and he doesn't even have the right of authorship, but in fact, Zheng Xiyi has also cared about this right of authorship, as a pure actor, since he can't act, it doesn't matter to him whether or not the word Zheng Xiyi appears on the screen. The only pity is that "The Melting Pot" can't go to major international film festivals, as long as this movie is not smashed, whether it is Kong Liu, Kong Zhiyong or the director of this film, Hwang Dong-hyuk, originally hoped to win one or two awards at these film festivals, with the urine nature of Koreans, they can naturally gain huge popularity, but now they are all gone.

As for the domestic publicity in South Korea, Zheng Xiyi doesn't care very much, and he hasn't even done a budget for large-scale publicity in China from the beginning, a movie like "The Melting Pot" with touching characteristics doesn't need to spend money on advertising at all, and there is no need for big names to support the scene, just after watching the movie, the word-of-mouth effect generated by the audience will be terrible. In fact, the church itself is the invisible big player of word-of-mouth marketing, but they have been on the top for too long, and they have long forgotten how they were willing to be a son of a cow a hundred years ago, leaning down to go deep into the lower echelons of society, and relying on curing diseases and saving people, and imparting knowledge in exchange for a good reputation and many believers.
