Chapter 042 The green mountains can't cover it, after all, it flows eastward
ps: It feels weird to type on a new computer...... But anyway, I didn't continue to owe more this time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ infoThank you for your understanding and support.
βββββββI'm a ridiculous dividing lineβββββββ
Kim Jong-ming didn't know from beginning to end that the two brothers in "The Yellow Sea" and Huang Zhengmin in "Improper Deal" surrendered directly, he really didn't know. After dinner that day, he went back to make up for sleep, and then went to Japan early the next morning wearing a baseball cap and carrying a box of clothes.
Anyway, Kim Jong Ming has to do some finishing work with Rakuten over there, and Kara's outbreak in Japan this round is a bit scary, and it is already visible to the naked eye that Ayumi Hamasaki's new single has taken the top, and this year's Japanese record market is estimated to be no one except Arashi who can really stop them, so the world has to take a look at it anyway.
What's more, Jin Zhongming has always paid attention to after-sales service, so he is also ready to greet Chiba Ryuhei, although the release of that movie in South Korea and China has not been hindered, but what kind of theater or other cooperation objects?
That's roughly the case, anyway, Jin Zhongming feels that he is very busy.
But...... So, however, he forgot an important thing until he got on the plane - why did you embarrass the Korean media by doing this?
In other words, what a good news point last night, excellent premiere word-of-mouth, amazing character interpretation, and scared the three actors to retreat directly...... Oh, and Kim Jong Ming slept until dawn at the premiere of his movie and left the stage early, completely ignoring everyone as nothing. Tsk, this material is enough for me to make up for a year......
In fact, just the night before, when Jin Zhongming was still eating barbecue and going back to sleep, the online media had already played to their advantages and boasted first!
This one...... In fact, there is no doubt about it. No way, the performance of "Uncle" is too eye-catching, not to mention that the reporters themselves are a bit of a level, even if they are not level, the praise on the Internet and the attendance rate of the feedback after the premiere that night are clearly reflected in the eyes of these people. Especially in the movie, Jin Zhongming's personal performance is even more commendable, he almost carried the whole movie with the charm of the role performed by one person, I don't know how many people clearly said when scoring on professional film review websites, they were fascinated by the role of uncle, and they gave high marks on the face of this character who even fascinated little Lori...... Do you need to consider anything else in this situation, blowing is not good at anything else, and blowing this word is really the essence of the three flavors......
However, if it turns out that it has really become the first bird and the center of public opinion, anything can be posted.
Sure enough, after the paper media came out early the next morning, things were a bit lively.
The reason is very simple, "Dong-A Daily", which had some disagreement with Kim Jong-ming because of "Those Years" before, suddenly turned his pen after praising the movie and Kim Jong-ming's acting skills, and directly questioned Kim Jong-ming's character. The newspaper was blunt, and directly said that Kim Jong Ming had no one in his eyes and was arrogant. In any case, at the premiere of his own movie, in the face of so many peers who may compete with him at the end of the year, how can he fall asleep and leave early? This is simply the category of professional ethics. What's more, last night, Huang Zhengmin, Kim Yun-seok, and Ha Jung-woo, the three real actors, successively or publicly or semi-publicly expressed their recognition of Kim Jong-ming's acting skills, and also took the initiative to give up the competition for the Daejong Award by adjusting the release date, but so far you Kim Jong-ming has not responded at all!
This one...... It's a double issue of character and professional ethics, right?
That's how interesting the Internet age is, you may just have a good night's sleep, but when you turn on your computer again, you find that the whole world seems to be talking about something new, and you're completely behind...... It's just that this time for Jin Zhongming, the person who sleeps lazily is himself, and the new topic on the Internet happens to be his lazy sleep...... And when he himself was still on the plane, starting with the accusation of Dong-A Ilbo, the Korean Internet took advantage of the popularity of the movie to discuss Kim Jong-ming's gaffe. And when Kim Jong-ming learned the news on his way to Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan, there was a lot of uproar on the Korean Internet about him sleeping at the scene and leaving early.
"Do you want Xiaoya to make a statement?" Zhang Minya asked on the phone.
"Declarations are mandatory, but it's not that simple. Sitting on Jin Zhongming's side, he smiled bitterly. "It's my fault. β
Zhang Minya was a little puzzled, but she didn't ask anything, she knew that Jin Zhongming must have specific instructions.
"First make a statement, just say two things, first praise the three, there must be a sense of disbelief in and out of the words, there must be a sense of I am actually saving their face, of course, the words must be secret. β
"Understood. β
"The second is to tell the truth, just tell everyone that I have been too busy and tired recently, so I fell asleep, so I went back to rest early, and now I am already in Japan early in the morning, so I didn't have much timely response...... Thank you for your understanding. β
"But Dong-A Ilbo is not trivi......al," Zhang Minya was a little worried. "Will this kind of statement that only expounds but does not refute further controversy and finally muddy the waters?"
"I wasn't ready to tear up with Dong-A Ilbo in the first place. Jin Zhongming yawned here. "This statement is completely for fans to see, to eliminate their disgust, as for "Dong-A Daily", it is not a ...... that we can stand up to with a statement."
"Zhong Ming, what do you mean?" Zhang Minya reacted slightly.
"Gun to gun, gun to gun, the task of tearing up the Dong-A Ilbo is naturally the Chosun Ilbo, otherwise what else? As for muddying the waters...... Why not?" said Kim Jong-ming, glancing at Seo Hyun, who was sitting beside him with a curious face. "It's easy to hype up a little bit of water, and a little bit of chaos is the only way to really take me out and further promote the movie...... Your task is to contact a group of media outlets, and start working hard during the day tomorrow to hype up two things, one is the excellence of "Moss" and the outstanding performance of Jung Jae-young's predecessors, and the other is to get Lao Hong to cooperate and promote and hype Kara's crazy performance in Japan. That's it, you don't have to worry about anything else. β
As soon as he hung up the phone, Xu Xian asked as if he was curious: "OPPA, will Dong-A Ilbo also hold grudges? Isn't it just a judgment between you about the quality of a movie?"
"Of course not!" replied Kim Jongming with a smile. "East Asia Japan is one of the three major newspapers in South Korea, and it has its own pride and weight, and it is not something they should do to directly attack a movie because of their previous judgment. β
I don't understand it a little.
"It's another thing. Jin Zhongming lay on the back seat of the car with his head up. "The Seoul Metropolitan Government has recently reformed free lunches for students...... That's why I've been trying to avoid this muddy water. β
I don't understand it anymore.
"Just look at it. Kim Jong Ming was noncommittal.
Sure enough, even if it was in Japan, Xu Hyun quickly saw the next development of the situation, and the next morning the "Chosun Ilbo" began to end, because Kim Yun-seok and others repeatedly said that they did not communicate with Kim Jong-ming face-to-face, so this time they tacitly grasped Kim Jong-myung's departure from South Korea with the "Dong-A Ilbo" to tear up the war.
"Dong-A Daily" is naturally saying that Kim Jong-ming has no dedication, and everyone can understand that you are busy as a dog, but you left directly without making a gesture, which obviously unintentionally reveals that you are ignoring the hidden intentions of the Korean audience.
This is a bit of a personal attack, and I don't know where such a big hatred and such a big grudge came from......
And there are positives and negatives, there are black and white, "Dong-A Ilbo" rolled up its sleeves and sprayed, and "Chosun Ilbo" naturally recalled a past incident.
It is said that Jin Zhongming won the title of actor with his teacher in the year of the explosion of "Lao Qian" and "Radio Star", but because of his age, he suffered from widespread hostility in society, forcing him to go to China and hide for a few months before coming back. When I think about it, I can't help but feel sad about the future of South Korea, and this society really can't tolerate young people...... Cloud Cloud Cloud ...... However, it is a bit interesting that this No. 1 newspaper in South Korea speculated on the contradiction between CJ and Kim Jong-myung in a certain square in the entertainment section.
However, in any case, there are still powerful allies, and the "Korea Financial News" released on the same day is quite worthy of their traditional friendship with Kim Jong-ming and the recent advertising cooperation between South Korea's Taobao and them. On the one hand, the newspaper did its best to praise the movie "Uncle" and the outstanding performance of Kim Jong-myung and Kim Sae-ron in the entertainment section, and on the other hand, it used its old business to discuss the big economic issue of the recovery of the Korean film industry, and by the way, took stock of the 'savior' of the market in the overall downturn of the Korean film industry in the past two years...... It seems that if you calculate it this way, Kim Jong Ming is still the savior of Korean movies?
That's it...... The water in the Korean entertainment news is getting muddy, but it's not enough to mix, it has to be even more mixed!
In the morning, the paper media tore, sprayed, and praised, but in the morning, the online media suddenly began to hype up the sales of Kara's new album in Japan. In fact, Universal and Cube are ready to press it and wait until the new week when the Japanese public trust list releases authoritative information before hyping it up. But it doesn't matter anymore, South Koreans, who are particularly sensitive to overseas achievements, are always happy to hear this kind of news that can make national pride explode...... Moreover, Kim Jong-myung's busyness seems to be taken for granted at this glance, Kara was bought by him, and the title song of the new album was written by him, and now people go to Japan and can't be said to ignore Korean audiences, right? Well, it's quite a glory for the country.
And as the time came to the afternoon, things changed again.
Suddenly, some media began to coax Zheng Jae-yong and "Moss", thinking that the artistry of this point shadow is far ahead of "Uncle", and Zheng Jae-yong's own performance is completely top-notch, there is no need to brag too much about "Uncle"; All kinds of posters quietly disappeared;Even Li Zhenfan jumped out to break the news,Said that the movie actually prepared two endings,There is also a happyend,But it was abandoned and the like,Aroused everyone's speculation;Then showbox, which has been cornered, also took action, "Yellow Sea" They withdrew, but at this time, no matter what, "Seeing the Devil" The film, which had already held an internal preview screening, couldn't run away, so rumors about Lee Byung-hun and Choi Min-sik scaring the staff out of their lives began to appear......
It's chaotic, it's bustling, it's really lively, so lively that Song Seung-heon, the star of "The Stateless", wants to say a word and no one pays attention to him, so lively that the Korean people are a little confused.
However, in such a state, aside from the premiere on August 4, people with intentions began to notice that the box office of "Uncle" on August 5 came to 250,000 people in one day, and on Friday, August 6, there may be a bonus to the weekend evening show, and the single-day box office performance of "Uncle" has reached 360,000 people. This result is basically the same as the highest single-day result of "Righteous Brothers", the best result holder of Korean films this year - 370,000 people.
But you know, this is a 19-banned movie! And the 6th is not a weekend after all, it's just a Friday! And what about "Righteous Brothers"? It's an obvious New Year's movie. What's more, at this time, "Moss" had not yet been painted, and "Righteous Brothers" had no opponent at that time, and the gap was self-evident.
So, in the middle of the night on Friday, when the data came, CJ Pictures made a bold statement on the spot, they not only wanted to defeat "Inception" to defend the honor of Korean films, but also break the last cooperation record between CJ and Kim Jong-myung - the result of "Lao Qian", the box office holder of South Korea's 19 banned films. The so-called peak of oneself can only be climbed by oneself!
In other words, no matter how lively and chaotic you are, and then you use the topic to play, don't you just look at the real results? Do you really think that Hwang Jung-min is a coward, so he took the initiative to retreat? Do you really think that Ha Jung-woo and Kim Yun-seok are willing to retreat and retreat? Some things have become more and more revealing after experiencing these chaotic foils.
"Uncle" is a real piece of gold, come if you don't accept it!
The explosion of "Uncle's" results covered everything, not to mention anything else, on Saturday morning, "Dong-A Ilbo" finally stopped blackmailing Kim Jong-ming, and "Chosun Ilbo" no longer blackmailed CJ, the two giants are very sorry for themselves, and their reputations are extremely precious. And their exit has also successfully handed things back to the entertainment industry itself, and the Korean entertainment media, which previously felt that there was a puddle of muddy water in front of them, has also completely stabilized its position, and the wind direction has begun to become pure and direct.
Well, an interesting thing is that the black material that Kim Jong-myung slept and left at the previous premiere seems to have ended here, which is also a bonus, right?
So back to the point, in this case, one of the most immediate consequences is that the South Korean media finally caught Kim Jong-myung. Saturday, right, can you go in the standoff? So, Kim Jong-ming was strongly surrounded in the standoff. In fact, when he was punished for attracting a large number of reporters and began to dismantle the plastic greenhouse, the surrounding ridges were almost full of bored reporters (the KBS with the copyright did not allow them to shoot at will), making it the same as the emperor in ancient times who helped the plow...... Well, that's kind of a landscape.
"When will we get to this point?" Kim Hyun-ah squatted under the eaves and looked enviously at the sea of reporters on the ridge over there.
"I always thought I was amazing in Japan. Gu Hara next to her responded with emotion. But now I have found out that the real popularity is not the number of fans, the popularity of songs, it still depends on identity and appeal. β
"But it doesn't come to this, does it?" said Hyo-min looked down at his boots. "None of us paid any attention to us. β
"I guess he works freshly, right?" replied Sunny. "So we all squeezed over to watch, and after a while of finishing the work and interviewing again, there should be a reporter looking for us. β
"I still have to be an actor. Han Shanhua, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke. "There is no future for idol without transforming into an actor, but ...... If you want to transform into an actor, you also need to accumulate popularity, otherwise you won't even be able to find a role. β
"Perhaps. Yuli agreed.
"Where have Sister Shin Young and Elder Sister Narsha gone?" asked Hyo-min suddenly. "Wasn't it still there just now?"
"Xiong Tae-woo isn't here, and neither is the village chief...... "Little Mustang added after glancing left and right.
"I went to a meeting. Sunny replied with his chin on his hands.
"What's the meeting?" Hyuna continued to understand.
"The beans are ripe again. Sunny replied a little lonely. "Look at the bean field over there, the leaves are already turning yellow. β
A few girls still didn't understand, and even Yu Li didn't react.
"To be honest, I'm very upset that you've come here to find me. Jin Zhongming was interviewed on the spot after stacking the last plank, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he caught all the reporters off guard.
"Why?" began to speculate on acquaintances. "Is it because there are too many of us breaking the silence here?"
"Not really. Jin Zhongming shook his head. "The idol village is now very famous, and people come to play outside of the shooting hours every week, and the silence is long gone. It's just that...... You have to understand that the show has been going on for almost a year, and there are some things that should come or still come, so it is inevitable that you will feel a little lonely when you are interviewed here. β
"Is 'Youth Undefeated' coming to an end?" someone immediately reacted.
"It's been a whole year. Jin Zhongming shook his head with emotion. "When the first phase came, it was the beans harvest, look over there...... The beans are going to turn yellow again. β
"But is there no follow-up plan for such a good program?" The reporters temporarily pressed the original intention of the interview, since the topic has been opened, let's digest this information first, do the reporters think that there is little news? You must know that "Clear Undefeated" has been on the air for nearly a year, and it has occupied the late-night file in South Korea for almost a year, and for many people, this program has become a part of life, but I didn't expect it to finally usher in ...... It's kind of a predictable piece of information.
"Don't have any idea of postponing?"
"What about Season 2?"
"After such a hard year, can you give it up?"
Problems abound.
"It's really reluctant. Kim Jong Ming told the truth, in fact, there is nothing to hide from this. I also thought about postponing it, but after discussing it with Wang Xianwu PD, I decided to end it according to a standard agricultural cycle, after all, this is a program with agricultural life as the main content. As for the second season, it seems that KBS does have such an idea, but I'm afraid it has nothing to do with me, the existing G7, or even the confrontation. Speaking of which, Jin Zhongming took the initiative to explain. ""Youth Undefeated", just leave the mark of youth, and if you go through it, you will go through it, there is no need to deliberately tie people to it because of the success of the show. β
The journalists also understood the statement and the decision, and to be honest, they had already figured out how to analyze it on this topic when they returned. Not to mention anything else, in a year's time, not only Jin Zhongming has made a huge leap in identity, but the original 7 idols are now different in popularity and worth or something, and continuing to choose the existing G7 is a little unbearable for the TV station, and it is not cost-effective for the idol agency.
Some things are just so cruel and realistic.
Under the eaves in the distance, the girls who understood that they had come over had fallen into silence, and most of them had gained a new start because of this show...... Hyuna pursed her lips as always, Hara covered her face and buried her head in her knees, while Hyomin, who had a soft personality, simply had red circles in her eyes and cried directly holding Sunny next to her.
"What about Xiaoqing, what about Wang Naive?" asked Yu Li suddenly raised her head and asked a writer next to her. "What if they're not in the standoff next season?"
"I will ask Tori to raise him as usual. The female writer replied helplessly. "This should be the best ending. β
Yuli was speechless.
The interview on the ridge continued, and the topic slowly began to turn to the most important concerns of the reporters.
"Is there a record of 19 banned movies?" Jin Zhongming laughed dryly. "It doesn't mean much to me, does it? "Lao Qian" is also one of my rare proud works. β
"But...... Everyone says that this movie is yours alone, and whether it is Mr. Baek Yoon-sik, Ms. Kim Hye-so, or Mr. Yoo Hae-jin in "Old Qian", their performances are extremely eye-catching......"
"Correct your statement. Kim raised an eyebrow. "There's no movie for one person, unless it's a one-man show that he takes a selfie, directs and acts. This "Uncle", first of all, director Li Zhenfan has been preparing for many years, he prepared the script and sufficient props, and he personally carried the camera and jumped from the second floor with me; and then the performance of the actors Sailun and Mr. Wang Traken is also bright enough, and the uncle is undoubtedly monotonous without their foil; even if it is the final action scene that you admire the most, to be honest, what can I do without a martial arts instructor from Hong Kong?"
This is an expected answer, and it can even be regarded as a standard answer, but it can also be seen that there are some interesting things, such as Kim Jong Ming directly praised Kim Sae Ron and Wang Traken, but he was noncommittal to several other actors with sufficient scenes, from this point of view, he has given enough news points.
"Brother Yun Shi, did they adjust the release date of the movie and praise me?" Kim Jong-ming sighed, and then wiped his sweat with a towel hanging around his neck. "I know you're here to ask me that question, to hear from me what I'm really talking about, not the kind of corporate PR style of explanation...... From that point of view, you've come to the right place. β
The reporters immediately lifted their spirits, and there was material!
"Are you saying that your company's previous statement has nothing to do with you?" said a reporter who couldn't wait.
"Can't say that. Jin Zhongming shook his head. "At that time, I was very busy in Japan, Taobao and Rakuten needed to sign a contract, kara and 4minute were all in the world, and I had to go to make further arrangements with President Koike, and then I was really a little confused after hearing the news here, so I entrusted the company to explain...... But at that time, I mainly wanted to explain the problem of sleeping and leaving early...... After all, I was really tired, and I couldn't control sleep. But what about the attitude towards those three...... I do feel that the company's description is a bit out of my mind. β
"And what do you really think?"
"First of all...... I accept their compliments. Jin Zhongming said with a face as usual, and his heart was not beating. "I do feel like my performance in 'Uncle' is the pinnacle of my acting career, and I do feel recognized for my performance. Actually, to be a boast, there are some things in this movie that I can't shoot twice, because I'm going to die in the movie after two shots. Some of the things I showed in this film were beyond the standards of the words power and acting, and I gambled on something with all my strength and effort...... Of course, I was lucky that I was still far from winning the perfect game, but I barely managed to pay for myself, and it was worth it. As for...... Do you want to ask me what I think of their postponement? To be honest, I'm upset, but I'm also impressed. β
Dozens of reporters, long guns and short guns, voice recorders, and various equipment erected on the ridges, were silent at the moment, and everyone was quietly waiting for Jin Zhongming to make a big news.
"By the way, you've hyped up a concept before. Jin Zhongming is still tepid. Although there have been many problems in the organization, this award is still the most recognized by the Korean people in terms of voting and fairness, because after all, it is funded by the government, and then the award organized by the Korean Filmmakers Association, there are enough voters, and various associations have participated. To be honest, I didn't think much about it at first, but slowly, as more and more excellent actors participated this year, and everyone's movie themes are very similar...... I also have to admit that I do have a little bit of a competitive mind, and I play so hard in the filming, don't I just want to prove myself?"
"But the three of them are already admitting defeat by doing so, right?" finally a young reporter couldn't hold back.
"Quite the opposite. Jin Zhongming shook his head. "These three mean the opposite, they are only willing to admit defeat in this single work, in essence, they still have to leave room and continue to elaborate their acting ambitions! However, I still say the same thing, I am an actor, I may have a side job, and I will take a break halfway, but I will continue to act after all, and this will not change easily. So, I'm here to formally accept their compliments, but I also hope and even look forward to a more direct dialogue on other works in the future. β
"Then, there is still Lee Byung-hun ...... for Mr. Jung Jae-young's performance"
"I'll talk about this as well. Jin Zhongming interrupted the other party's question and took the initiative to talk. "Jung Jae-yong's performance this time can be called phenomenal, so I don't need to say anything, it would be my honor to meet him at the Daejong Awards and have a direct conversation at the Best Actor award!"
The reporters were already excited.
"As for Lee Byung-hun's predecessors, Choi Min-sik seniors, Song Seung-hun seniors, and Joo Jin-mo seniors, as well as the previous Song Kang-ho seniors, Kang Dong-won seniors, and Won Bin seniors, to be honest, their existence excites me as much as Jung Jae-young's predecessors. As a Korean actor, the thought of being able to have a direct conversation with these people at the same award, and even having to compete fiercely with these people because of the number of places they have been shortlisted, makes me feel very excited!"
"Are you declaring war?"
"That's right, this is a declaration of war!" Kim Jong-ming glanced at the reporter of "Korea Film Weekly" who was asking. "Why not? I've put in the effort, I've got the results to match the effort, and then there's such an opportunity in front of me, why can't I just declare war on them and fight them on the best platform at the moment?"
Glancing at the group of reporters in front of him, Jin Zhongming continued to say calmly: "Actually, some of the things that have happened around me in the past few days, whether some media tried to pull the movie into an irrelevant topic but failed, whether it was the imminent dissolution of "Undefeated Youth", the complete outbreak of Kara after three years of hard work, or even some personal experiences, these things made me deeply touched. Just like that sentence, 'the green mountains can't cover it, after all, it flows eastward', the general trend is like this, as long as you don't forget your original intention and look forward, then the inherent pattern of some things will eventually be broken, and some things can be rushed over after all. β
ββ¦β¦ Returning to the main topic, what about declaring war? In fact, regardless of whether it is the three of Huang Zhengmin's predecessors who have temporarily retreated, or the few people I just mentioned, since everyone has the same path and similar goals, it is almost inevitable that some scenes will appear, right? So why hide this kind of topic?...... I would also like to ask you to give me a special greeting to Lee Byung-hun and Song Seung-hun, because I am only familiar with these two, so I will ask them for me, what their attitude is towards me, what their opinion is on their performance in the upcoming movie, and what is their attitude towards this year's Daejong Award for Best Actor. I...... In short, thank you for coming all the way, but we still have to herd cattle in the afternoon, and the calf is very timid, so I won't leave you. β
