Episode 563: Taehy's CP's story
C&C once invested in "The King's Man", that was because the theme of "The King's Man" was too sensitive and no one dared to invest in it, so he picked up a leak and made a lot of money, but since then, Zheng Xiyi has not promoted C&C to continue to invest in movies, Kim Young-min really wants to transform C&C into a production company, but without Zheng Xiyi's financial support and vision, he does not dare to step into this new field casually, so C&C has only invested in such a movie for so many years.

The reason why Zheng Xiyi no longer promotes is actually very simple, C&C can only survive in the Korean entertainment industry by only doing artist brokerage business for the time being, even if there are Zheng Xiyi and Lee Joon-gi Zhentai, C&C will not pose much threat to Korean local film and television companies, which is why major companies no longer target C&C and Zheng Xiyi after a few black hands. However, if C&C expands its business into the field of production and investment, investment and production are the upstream of the entire film and television production process, and the interests of tens of billions of won are involved, and such a big cake is by no means something that a small C&C can touch.
Even in the purely commercial market environment of the United States, film production and distribution are firmly controlled by the six major corporations of Warner Bros., Paramount, Twentieth Century Fox, Columbia, Universal and Disney, in which money is only a basic factor but not a decisive factor. The current CEO, Lauren Ellison, has a net worth of $48 billion) is keen on film production, and once wanted to break through the blockade of the six major companies by throwing money, but after tossing for a few years, he still chose to co-produce and distribute films with the six major companies.
"Is it a gay-themed movie again?" Zheng Xiyi asked Han Shimin suspiciously, but immediately denied the question, "Animida, since "Wang Nan", major companies have not been so sensitive to this kind of theme, unless the script is too bad, it is impossible to find investors. ”
Han Shimin smiled bitterly and handed the script to Zheng Xiyi and said: "It's true that it's not a gay theme, but it's more sensitive than that, although the script makes me like it very much, but I really don't dare to invest in this movie." ”
Zheng Xiyi stretched out his hand to take the script, looked down at the title on the cover, and immediately understood why Han Shimin said this, "It turned out to be this, did Kong Liu Xi find it?"
Han Shimin nodded and said, "Zhun Ji introduced it, Kong Liu Xi and screenwriter Kong Zhiyong personally came to the company to send the script. ”
The corners of Zheng Xiyi's mouth curled and said, "Zhun Ji won't be the protagonist who wants to rob Kong Liu Xi, right?"
Han Shimin finally smiled, "You really know him, Zhun Gi really wants to star in this movie, Kong Liu Xi also said that as long as we can invest, it is no problem for him to give up the protagonist." ”
Zheng Xiyi smiled and said: "Zhun Ji just came out of the recruit training center a few days ago, and it will be cold when he retires from the army and plays the daylily, and if he really wants to change the starring role, even I will be tempted, he still obediently serves in the National Defense Propaganda Department." ”
Han Shimin looked at Zheng Xiyi in surprise and said, "Ah, Xiyi, you also want to star in this movie?
"I haven't read this script, but I have read this novel, and I really wanted to make it into a movie at the time, but I put it down because I was going to Japan to film, and when I remembered it again, Kong Liu Xi was already running for this movie, so I didn't interfere again. Zheng Xiyi's eyes narrowed, and the smile on his face disappeared, the story in this novel is so tragic that it is impossible to have any good mood just by recalling it.
Han Shimin didn't expect Zheng Xiyi to take a fancy to this novel early, and said in his heart: "Xiyi, you don't really want to invest in this movie, right?"
Zheng Xiyi nodded, "Of course, I didn't interfere again because Kong Liuxi was already doing this, and I would be suspected of stealing credit if I added it, but now that Kong Liuxi sent the script to us, I don't have this concern." ”
Han Shimin frowned and said, "But...... This movie is so taboo that there will definitely be a lot of pressure, do we really have to carry it?"
Zheng Xiyi raised his eyebrows, "Kong Liuxi can bear it as an actor, there is still S.M behind us, what can't we bear?"
"Huh?" Han Shimin was taken aback, looked at Zheng Xiyi with round eyes, and said for a long time: "Xiyi, you don't plan to drag S.M into the water, right?" Director Li Xiuman and President Kim Young-min will not agree, and neither will the directors of the council. ”
Zheng Xiyi smiled, picked up the script given by Kim Young-min, shook it, and said: "President Kim Young-min will definitely agree! As for the board of directors, if Director Lin Xiyin and Director Kim Young-min agree, it doesn't matter if the others agree or not, as long as the box office after the movie is released is good enough, just don't give them a chance to settle accounts after the autumn." Director Li Xiuman, he doesn't seem to be able to manage the business outside of idol groups and trainees now......"
"Poof!" Han Shimin fortunately didn't spray water, otherwise he would have to squirt out, and pointed at Zheng Xiyi with a wry smile and said, "If I didn't know that these two scripts were given to you for the first time, I would have to arrange all this for you earlier!"
Zheng Xiyi shrugged his shoulders and said, "How does President Han know that I didn't arrange it a long time ago?"
Han Shimin's mind turned, and he was stunned, Zheng Xiyi was right, all this was arranged by him a long time ago, but it was just reflected in this movie.
Zheng Xiyi looked at Han Shimin's daze and smiled slightly, looked down at the TV series script given by Jin Yingmin, and was secretly proud in his heart. In fact, when he saw the title on the script, Zheng Xiyi was inclined to act, but he didn't expect Han Shimin to send another script in time, the timing was so coincidental, it was a good thing.
Han Shimin recovered from the shock, and then looked at Zheng Xiyi's gaze with a hint of fear and a hint of reverence, "Then, Xiyi, do you want to play the leading role in this movie?"
Zheng Xiyi pondered for a moment, and said noncommittally: "That's it, President Han Nim, you can arrange for us to meet with Kong Liuxi, and the specific operation depends on his opinions, the writer Nim and the director Nim." ”
Han Shimin thought about it, even if he wanted to replace Kong Liu, he would have to talk to him in person, not to mention that Zheng Xiyi, as the company's largest individual shareholder and final decision-maker, should also have a deep discussion with all the main creators, "Okay, I'll arrange it, Xiyi, what time do you think is appropriate?"
"I've been free lately, so let's see Kong Liu Xi's time, and notify me when it's settled. ”
"Inside, I'll let someone contact Kong Liuxi. Han Shimin nodded in agreement.
Zheng Xiyi chatted with Han Shimin for a while about C&C's recent work, and when he saw that there was nothing to do, he said goodbye to Han Shimin, went out with two scripts, and prepared to go downstairs to find Kim Seungmin and drive home. After walking a few steps along the corridor, there was suddenly a sound of girls frolicking from the staircase in front, Zheng Xiyi pursed his lips, thinking to himself what kind of day it is, everything is rushed.
Before the girls appeared from the staircase, they heard Xu Xian's voice say, "Ernie stop playing, no loud noise is allowed in the corridor, it's not good to disturb the directors." ”
Taeyeon's voice also came, "Nei, Nei, Busy Nei is right, so-young, Yoo-ri, Yoon-a, you three are honest, if you want to make trouble, wait until you go back to the practice room......"
While turning out of the staircase, Taeyeon still twisted her head to lecture the members behind her, not realizing that Jung Hee-yi was standing in the corridor at all, but the other girls saw Jung Hee-yi at a glance, and suddenly the expressions on their faces were different.
Sunny, Xiuying and Yuna all tried hard to hold back their laughter, Jessica half-opened her mouth and just wanted to speak and forcibly held back, pretending to yawn, Pani looked dull but a playful light flashed in her eyes, Hyoyeon was about to shout, but Yuri covered her mouth and whispered, "Captain Nim said, don't make a sound!"
Walking at the feet of Xu Xian at the end, he paused to look at Zheng Xiyi, and then at Aunt Jin who was nagging, and pursed her lips with a straight face.
"Well, Yoo-ri's attitude is right, change it as soon as you say it, and help me maintain order, you should all learn from Yo-ri well, don't let me worry about it any more......" Taeyeon nagged and praised Yoo-ri while turning her head, and finally found that someone was walking over, she looked up and looked, and suddenly her whole body trembled in fright, and she exclaimed, "Ah, Hee-yi oppa!"
Jung Hee-yi was taken aback by her super high voice, and stopped with a dark face, and the girls all took a few steps back in the blink of an eye, standing far away from Taeyeon against the wall, and stood with their heads bowed against the wall, as if we didn't know her, leaving Taeyeon alone standing in the middle of the corridor.
Zheng Xiyi looked back and didn't hear the sound of the door opening, so he whispered to Taeyeon, "Am I so scary?"
Taeyeon's little face turned red and shook her head desperately, Zheng Hee-yi saw that she was nervous like this, waved her hand and said, "Okay, okay, you guys go back to the practice room, I won't bother." ”
After saying that, Zheng Xiyi was about to flash people, but Yun'er ran over and grabbed his sleeve and said with a hippie smile: "Xiyi oppa, do you really want to be our eldest brother-in-law?"
"Ahh
Zheng Xiyi raised his hand and slapped Yun'er on the head with the script, "You are now bold, you dare to tease the captain nim and the senior nim, have you not been punished for kneeling for a long time?"
Yuna hugged her head and pretended to be very dizzy and said, "Oops, I was beaten and lost my memory, did I say anything just now?"
Jessica walked over and pushed her away, crossed her hands on her waist, stood in a figure-eight step, and said coldly, "I'm a soldier Changbu?"
Zheng Xiyi looked at Taeyeon, Taeyeon twisted her head and didn't dare to look at him, Zheng Xiyi sighed and said, "Yes, no, no, you know it very well in your own heart." ”
Jessica gritted her teeth and glared at Zheng Xiyi, her feet were about to move, Zheng Xiyi pointed to her leg and said: "This is the corridor, don't move your hands and feet, in case one of the directors happens to come out and see it, it doesn't matter to me, you will be in trouble, let's go our separate ways, you go back to the practice room, I'll go downstairs and go home, goodbye." ”
Saying that Zheng Xiyi was about to bypass Jessica and leave, Jessica was so angry that she stomped her foot, reached out and hugged Zheng Xiyi's left hand, and said to Yun'er at the same time: "Help drag this guy to the practice room for me!"
Yun'er smiled, and immediately reached out to hug Zheng Xiyi's other hand, Xiuying also smiled and pounced on him and pushed him to turn around, and said, "Xiyi oppa, tell us the story of Taixi CP." ”
Sunny, Yuli and Hyo-yeon also smiled and came over to hold hands, pushing backs and pushing backs, Zheng Xiyi couldn't shout, and he didn't dare to shake them off, so he was forced to walk into the girls' practice room. Xu Xian, who was at the end, stopped in front of the door of the practice room and puffed out her face, hesitating whether to find a reason to leave, she didn't want to hear the story of "Taixi CP" at all!
