Chapter 453: The Inside Story of the Crew

Although Minoru Yamashita's specific position is not worth mentioning in the organizational structure of the entire Lotte Group. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoFor ordinary employees of Rakuten, this Japanese colleague with the title of "Assistant to the Head of the Public Relations Planning Division" should be just a sesame mung bean cadre.

However, for the executives of Lotte who are really familiar with the inside story of the group's top management, such as Cha Wenchun, the director of Lotte Pictures, and Shin Heon, the president, this young man's background is definitely not to be underestimated.

It is said that this assistant Yamashita is a "confidant" specially recruited from Japan a few years ago by His Excellency the Executive Management Chairman, and he himself is a relative of a certain senior Rakuten of Japan......

Xin Executive himself grew up and was educated in Japan, and compared to those Korean executives in the Lotte Group, there is no doubt that this assistant Yamashita is the real "descendant" of Xin Executive.

In particular, Representative Che sees this point more clearly - unlike other listed companies under the group, Lotte Pictures is not publicly listed, so he, the "representative" of the director, can obviously only "represent" the only major shareholder, the Xin family.

Although he himself also holds a small stake in Lotte Pictures, compared to the Xin family, he is just an agent before being pushed to power.

The next day, Minoru Yamashita solemnly asked to see Cha Wenchun and Shin Xian in his private capacity.

The two of them didn't understand what was going on, so they didn't dare to slack off, so they each stopped what they were doing and "received" the visitor in the best reception room at Lotte Pictures.

However, they didn't expect that Yamashita actually came for a certain movie that the company had invested in......

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That's what I got from the news. There seems to be some controversy about the script of "Parasite" on the part of several creators, but it has not been properly handled - it is said that we may have forcibly intervened in this matter at Rakuten Pictures, so Your Excellency Executive, let me know the specific situation. ”

The assistant at the mountain had a strange face and briefly described the version of the statement he had obtained from Liu Kewei, Wen Genying and others.

After listening to him, Shen Xian and Che Wenchun both looked confused, looked at each other for a long time, and couldn't say a word.

――What is the reason for this sense of disobedience?

The retail business group is only one of the main development directions of the Lotte Group, in the retail business group, compared with Lotte Department Store, Lotte Mart and Lotte Super, etc., Lotte Pictures is probably a relatively minor existence; as for the specific company of Lotte Pictures, its main business is the operation and management of more than 60 movie theaters, and the investment in film production is only a relatively minor business; as for "Parasite", it is just one of the dozens of movies that Lotte Pictures invests in every year!

The helmsman of the Lotte Group, Executive Hin Dong Bin Shin, would pay attention to the details of the production of such a movie?

If we want to make an analogy that may not be so appropriate, it is probably similar to Mr. Chang Kaishen's behavior of stepping across the command level of a theater, group army, army, and other levels to directly give orders to a regiment-level unit.

Not to mention His Excellency Xin, even the direct managers of Lotte Pictures, Shin Xian and Cha Wenchun, have only heard of the name of this movie.

After all, their main focus is usually more on the cinemas.

So for a while, none of these two people could really give a definite statement.

But Yamashita really came on behalf of Xin to carry out Your Excellency's will, and everyone proposed it like this, and the two of them couldn't cope with it if they didn't give an explanation.

So the president in charge of the business, Shin Heon, confessed and said that I didn't really know much about it, so I went to find the head of the film production department, and let's ask the situation face to face.

It didn't take long for President Shen to lead the other two middle-aged people back.

One is the head of the film production department, and the other, a few years younger, is the executive director in charge of the film "Parasite", and also has the title of "executive producer" in the crew.

According to the "producer" himself, he was previously the director of a movie theater and had just been transferred to the film production department for a few days.

In other words, I don't have much experience in filmmaking.

However, because I had just arrived in a new department, I was eager to prove my ability by making some achievements.

Therefore, the screenwriter of this movie, Kim Yoo-ra, talked to him privately a few days ago and proposed that a more formal actress should have been chosen to play the female number two, but since it has been decided to replace it with a female idol, there must be a certain sacrifice in professionalism. In this case, it is necessary to give full play to the advantages of idol in terms of topicality in order to make up for the loss.

How can we maximize the topical effect of female idols?

Naturally, it is a passion play that "may be of a somewhat controversial nature".

Screenwriter Kim said conclusively that he believes that as long as he is faithful to the script he has created, he will be able to attract the audience to the cinema to the greatest extent.

Although there is a blank in terms of film production, if you want to say what kind of shots are more appealing to the audience, the producer, who has worked in the cinema for a long time, also knows in his heart.

In fact, coincidentally, this screenwriter Kim was just an assistant screenwriter before, and this is the first time he has officially served as a film screenwriter.

So he is also holding back his strength, hoping that he can successfully improve his coffee position in the film and television drama circle through this movie.

Since both of them are so eagerly looking forward to the box office results, it is easy to reach a consensus.

So the producer accepted the screenwriter's argument and chatted with the two producers privately, saying that from his personal standpoint, he was more optimistic about the original script plan created by Kim Yoo-ra.

On the other hand, both producers are actually quite optimistic about the script of the play - otherwise the director's position would not be handed over to someone else. It's just because of the face of Lotte Pictures that he reluctantly took over the job of producer.

By the way, he also pushed Liang Yunhao's right-hand man Gao Shizhen to the position of director, which can be regarded as giving him a chance.

So the two producers don't expect the finished quality of this movie so much. Everyone has other scripts they like and are "queuing", so they plan to work on other works they care more about after filming this drama.

Therefore, although the two did not agree with some of the details of the script, when the producer approached them privately, they immediately made a gesture of backing down.

What Korean director or producer would be happy to offend the country's second largest cinema company!

Besides, is it worth sticking to the so-called principles for the sake of a work that I am not optimistic about?

So in this way, the opinion of the screenwriter Kim Yo-ra has the upper hand in the crew.

P.S. stopped for a week before, so it's good to explain a few words.

First of all, there is certainly no such thing as a "Kavin".

The results of this book are not ideal.,It's been going on for more than a year and there's no improvement.,A while ago, there were always people with 0 fans in the book review area who accused this and that.,The number of collections is still up and down around 1240 for a while.,A few more today.,A few less tomorrow...... So the mood is not very good.

Also, I mentioned in the postscript that the number of book reviews on Youshu.com is too small, and I hope you can write a few sentences about your feelings about this book, no need to brag about it, just be honest - as a result, a few months have passed now, and there are still only five book reviews there, only two new ones have been added, and one of them is still a bad review of "extremely poor writing and chaotic main line".

How can I say it, I am indeed a little discouraged......

It just so happened that the Legend of the Warring States had just been updated to version 106, so I indulged in it for a few days.

To be honest, a novel that I think has put a lot of thought into and has a very serious attitude to write, with a collection of more than 1,000 and an early 40s, what is this called?

There is probably a part of it that is the "contribution" (wry smile) of the major hand-hit stations.

In my words in the exchange group, it is that the grades are so bad that it has no value as a niche work.

Originally, I just planned to simply stop for a week, squeeze the "water" in the collection, at least make the subscription less ugly, and it can be regarded as self-comfort.

But what I didn't expect was that the plan didn't change quickly.

Although he never expected to make money by writing this book, the author still had to eat after all.

It just so happened that Liu Kewei's realistic prototype was also contacting me in the past few days, saying that he planned to resign from his current company, and the next stop had been decided, in the imperial capital. Ask me if I'm interested in working together again......

By the way, the prototypes of Che Guanglong and Xia Ruoying are now also settled in the imperial capital.

So I'm ready to go back out of the mountain.

In any case, this book is not a eunuch, but the state of work in the game development industry is exactly what I described in this article...... It is estimated that it will definitely not be able to maintain daily updates in the future, and if you don't do it, you will have to come from time to time to change weekly or even monthly like Lingao Qiming or the helmsman of Star Media.

I'm a little sorry for the loyal readers who have been steadfast in their support for me, but unfortunately that's the reality, and we all have to accept it, right? )
