Chapter 16: The Chaser
"A ticket for the pursuers, thank you. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "came and expressed himself simply and clearly.
Just look at this person wearing a peaked cap with popular elements of the moment, a simple T-shirt on the upper body, and a dark blue jeans and canvas shoes on the lower body. It has a very clean and concise feel.
"Please collect your tickets and have a great time. The conductor said with a smile.
The man took the ticket and said nothing, turned around and walked inside, it was Kim Jong Kwon who was in a period of silence.
After the Spring Festival, Kim Jong-kwan simply got together with Su Ji-sub, and Su Ji-sub was put into filming again, and Kim Jong-kwan started a boring life again.
Just in time for the release of "The Chaser", which has been promoted for a long time and is based on real events, Kim Jong-kwon decided to come out to watch a movie to spice up his boring life, and by the way, to find out about the 'enemy situation'.
Because "The Chaser" is also director Luo Hongzhen's feature film debut, it is not a high-cost movie, relying on the adaptation of real events and the acting skills of the actors to attract a lot of audiences.
Kim Jong Kwon took the ticket and found his seat, and at this time, there were less than 5 minutes before the start of the screening, Kim Jong Kwon roughly glanced at it, and the attendance rate was very high, and it was basically full.
After all, this movie is said to be adapted from the true case of Yoo Yong-chul, the most brutal murderer in the entire Korean history, coupled with large-scale publicity and a good cast, it has attracted a lot of attention, and it is not surprising that there is such an attendance rate.
Just like that, while Kim Jong-kwon was thinking about it, the screening began.
Since the beginning of the movie, Kim Jong Kwon has been concentrating on watching the movie, and the more he watches it, the more frightened he becomes, originally Kim Jong Kwon felt that he and Su Ji Sub's "Movie is Movie" was already very good, and he was also very satisfied with his performance, and even a little very complacent.
But after watching the emotional expression of the pursuer played by Kim Yoon-seok and the murderer played by Ha Jung-woo, the use of his eyes and body deeply shocked him. If Kim Jong-kwon's real fights in the filming can increase the audience's sense of substitution and realism, then the performances of Kim Yoon-seok and Ha Jung-woo make the audience know that this is a movie and it is all fake, but they are still as if they are there, and their body and mind have been following the characters in the movie, and they will feel sad, fearful and even desperate like them.
"This is the real performance, which can turn decay into magic, and can turn falsehood into reality. ”
Kim Jong-kwan looked at the movie, the murderer played by Ha Jung-woo picked up a hammer and smashed it on the woman's head, while the audience outside the screen knew that it was just a shooting effect, but they were still immersed in it and let out bursts of exclamations.
He felt as if he had suddenly understood something, and he no longer regarded acting as a mere profession as before, and Kim Jong-kwon suddenly had a new interpretation of the term actor.
"One day I can do it, make the audience laugh because I laugh, cry because I cry, maybe this is a real actor. Kim Jong Kwon looked at the audience who were already completely immersed in the movie, got up and walked out, this is a very good movie, the purpose has been achieved, there is no need to continue watching.
Walking out of the door of the movie theater, the dazzling light made Kim Jong Kwon, who had just come out of the dark movie theater, squint slightly. At this time, Kim Jong Kwon, who felt that he had found a way forward in life, was not in a good mood as he imagined.
is more worried about "Movie is Movie", these two movies have a lot in common, such as under the guise of 'real', one is adapted from real events, and the other is a real fight. They are all action dramas, and they all expose the dark side of society.
And the current trend of "Chaser" is bound to affect the movies released after it, compared to "Movie is Movie", which is obviously not as impactful and shocking as "Chaser". This kind of disadvantage makes Kim Jong-kwon, who has watched "The Chaser", very unconfident.
Until now, I don't even know when the movie will be released, and Kim Jong Kwon feels very sad.
Although he never thought that this movie would achieve such great results, Kim Jong Kwon is still looking forward to it, after all, in his 'Aura', this is also a small harvest of the movie. But now the state of the movie worries him very much.
"Hey..."
i'msosorrybutiloveyou
I'msosorrybutiloveyou are all lies, I didn't understand it, and now I understand that I need you
i'msosorrybutiloveyou
I'msosorrybutiloveyou, who said hurtful things, I lost you unconsciously
Just when Kim Jong Kwon sighed, the mobile phone rang.
"Yo Bu Sai Yo, director, why did you call me suddenly, is there any good news?" Kim Jong Kwon saw that it was the director's phone and quickly answered it.
"Well, that's right, the good news, the theater chain has been negotiated, first give 500 screens, and then watch the movie release adjust in real time. The distribution company has also been found, and they are willing to bear the cost of publicity, so how about it, let's be happy. The director's excited voice came over the phone.
"Really? It's amazing, does Brother Ji-sub know?" Kim Jong-kwan heard the good news and shook his fist fiercely, and the depression just now was swept away.
"Got it, I'll inform Ji-sub before I call you. ”
"By the way, director, why did it suddenly go so smoothly, I found so many people before, but it was useless. This time it will be so kind, the face publicity is all covered, and the publicity cost on the scale is not low. After the excitement, Kim Jong Kwon felt a little wrong, he said it in such a dead tone before, and suddenly his attitude changed so much, he couldn't help but wonder.
“...... Well, it's nothing, it's just that some agreements have been reached, it's my personal business, and it has nothing to do with you, don't ask again. Hearing Kim Jong-kwon's question, the director lost his previous happy mood, and obviously paid a lot of price for the smooth release of this movie.
"Is it really okay?Director, is there anything I can help with?" Kim Jong Kwon sincerely thanked this rookie director for his teaching after the filming of the movie, if he were to become another famous director, he would not have given him such a big opportunity at all, and he would not have taught him carefully, so he was very grateful to this director.
"Don't worry, boy. If there is really anything, will I still call you here? In the future, you can film well, and being obedient will be the greatest help to me. The director's laughter and scolding came from the phone.
"Hey~ Director, am I so unbearable? Didn't the director praise me for acting well before?" Kim Jong-kwan began to 'disobey' again.
"You kid, it seems that the training is not ruthless enough, you just pray that it doesn't fall into my hands, otherwise, hum"
"Ah, director, when will the movie be released, it's been almost half a year since the movie was completed, and my hair is gray. Kim Jong-kwan listened to the director's unkind tone and quickly diverted the topic.
"Hmph, aren't you in a hurry with me? In order for this movie to be released, how much effort have I put in, how many people have begged, you really don't have a backache when you stand and talk, or you will come!" The director scolded loudly in anger.
"Yes, yes, you have worked hard as a director, and you are too great a director. So, when is the specific time of the release, I really can't wait. Kim Jong-kwan casually praised the director.
He really can't wait, all his net worth is invested in it, and if the release fails, he can go and drink the northwest wind. And he is still waiting for the movie to be released and accumulate fame. Now he is nothing, he can't even go on TV shows, and no one knows him, so if he goes on like this, he is getting farther and farther away from his desire to be a big star.
"It's scheduled to be released on March 28 on the 5th of the week, and by then "The Chaser" is almost over, in fact, I didn't want to release it during this time, and now it seems that "The Chaser" will have some impact on us, after all, these two films have a lot of the same publicity points. By the way, have you watched "The Chaser"? Now many media and film critics have unanimously praised it. Although the box office statistics have not yet come out, the rumored survey results will definitely be a big hit. ”
“... I just finished reading it, it is indeed very good-looking, the plot design is very suspenseful, tense, and the acting skills of the actors are not to be said, coupled with the gimmick of "adaptation of the real case of the murder demon Liu Yongzhe", it is estimated that it will be a double harvest at the box office. Kim Jong Kwon also sighed.
"Well, in fact, we are not bad compared to them, and now director Luo Hongzhen can be said to have achieved success, and we will be next. I'm sure our film will make a difference. "The director doesn't know whether he is cheering up Kim Jong-kwon, or cheering himself up, in short, what he said is very imposing.
"Well, that's right, we will succeed, definitely!" Kim Jong Kwon also threw away the uneasiness in his heart and said firmly.
"From tomorrow, the promotion plan for the film will be launched, there will be some activities, the press conference needs you to attend, you have to be ready, and then if you have any resources to promote, use it quickly, the more the better, now it's up to you to fight." With that, he hung up the phone.
Kim Jong-kwan looked at the mobile phone that had been hung up speechlessly. "Your sister, if I had propaganda resources, would I be so miserable? I haven't been on TV for a long, long time, and the most recent one was on the news because of the 'violent beating' of Su Ji-sub..."
Kim Jong-kwon, who had returned home, lay on the bed, flipping through his 'thin' phone book, and was so sad that he was dying. He understands what the director means, it is impossible to have a few press conferences or something, and the influence is not enough, Su Ji-sub is a big name enough, and it is easy to be on the show, but this brother will not agree at all.
Director Rao and Kim Jong-kwon broke their mouths, and So Ji-sub didn't agree. This brother is too introverted, and it is too difficult for him to be promoted on variety shows. So that's the end of it.
"What should I do, find Jiyoung Nuna? No, no, Nuna just had surgery, and Nuna is not in a good situation right now. Girlhood? The idols who have just debuted still need others to take care of them, how can they have the ability to help others. Kim Jong-kwon's hair was about to fall off.
"Hey, it would be nice if Brother Zhixie agreed to be on the show, but Liu Zaishi's predecessor promised me that the show would be chosen at will. ”
Suddenly, Kim Jong Quan's eyes lit up, yes, Liu Zaishi has so many good programs in the hands of his predecessors, so it is better to make a phone call and ask.
Although before Liu Zaishi left last time, he said that he would look for him for a drink, but I don't know if he forgot it, or he was too busy to look for him, but during the holiday, Kim Jong Kwon still sent a text message to greet him, and he also got a reply, proving that Liu Zaishi did not forget him.
"Hey, is it in the stone senior?.."
