Chapter 072: March Rain (Medium)

"You say, as long as it's not too much, I'll agree. "The ghost sent the gods to the gods, and An Shengji said the exact same answer as he did three years ago.

"It's very simple, please sign a contract with my company first. Jin Zhongming looked directly at the other party and replied. "Then, starting from next Wednesday's micro-film, including the literary film directed by me immediately behind, and the commercial film that I plan to direct and act, as long as one of these three works is bad, you can publicly terminate the contract from my company. ”

"What's the standard of bad?" An Shengji asked with a frown.

"These three works will win at least two awards, and less than two is considered bad. As he spoke, Admiralty raised his hand and counted. "The short film is undoubtedly the best short film at the Busan Film Festival, and it is also the only competitive section of the Busan Film Festival. ”

Ahn Sung-ki nodded and recognized the award, in fact, the Busan Film Festival is the only high-level ceremony where the quality of short films can be judged.

"Then the remaining two works are regular feature-length works, Best New Director, Best Director and Best Actor. When he said this, Jin Zhongming raised four fingers. "It's these four awards, I will definitely be able to get two, if I can't get them, I don't even need you to leave, I will close the film branch of that company myself, and then you don't have to think or worry about anything, it's meaningless!"

"Sounds more difficult than last time!" Ahn sneered. "But I agreed!

"Not ready!" replied Kim Jong Ming, standing up. "You can ask the lawyer to draw up a copy yourself, all I need is your name, and the rest doesn't matter. Can I still think of making money from you?"

"What are you going to do?" An Shengji looked at Jin Zhongming, who was hurriedly preparing to leave, and asked. "Won't you have breakfast at my place?"

"No need. Jin Zhongming waved his hand. "I'll go find Cui Minzhi's senior, with your name in front, he will agree nine times out of ten. ”

"How many more are I missing?" An Shengji suddenly asked in a vague question.

"One more than three years ago!" Kim Jong-ming was stunned on the porch of An Shengji's house for a full five seconds, but he still gave an accurate answer. "In other words, I still have 26 actors to fulfill my other promise three years ago. ”

After answering this question. Jin Zhongming didn't take an umbrella in his hand, so he directly pushed open the door and left, leaving An Shengji alone in the living room muttering to himself: "Twenty-six?

Choi Min-sik immediately agreed when he heard that Ahn Sung-gi had decided to come over, but he also had some minor problems.

"Do you know why I agreed so easily?" asked Choi Min-sik, staring at Kim Jong-ming playfully.

"My conditions are very favorable, and Mr. An Shengji," Jin Zhongming replied without thinking.

"A little. Choi Min-sik nodded, stretched out his hand and pressed the head of Kim Jong-ming's words. "But there is another very important reason. ”

You say. Kim Jong Ming felt a little strange.

"Since my debut, I have been making movies for more than ten years. Choi Min-sik preached with some embarrassment. "I haven't broken any major or minor injuries on my body. Well, that is, in 06, I had a parade with you and Brother An Shengji, and I only took a year off. ”

Jin Zhongming hugged his arms speechlessly.

"This, last year, I went to shoot a literary film called "Himalayas: Where the Wind Stays", and I was very moved. Choi Min-sik continued to tell with a smile, but how to look at this picture made Kim Jong-ming opposite him feel a little underwhelmed. "So, I'm ready. Uh, ready"

"Senior, just say it!" Jin Zhongming asked angrily rubbing his head. "How many years are you going to take a break?"

"It's hard to say. Choi Min-sik replied with a smile. "Anyway, I'm not going to touch movies again this year or next year, and I don't know the year after next. So if you sign me away, it's actually no different from not signing it. ”

"I've prepared a signing fee!" Jin Zhongming spread his hand speechlessly.

"Of course I don't. Choi Min-sik's answer left people speechless. "Anyway, you're a new company, and you're the one who needs to be pressed, aren't you? ”

In other words. Jin Zhongming continued to rub his rain-soaked hair and asked. "Can I think that for the sake of my teacher, you allow me to use your portrait rights for free when promoting my company?"

"It's okay if you have to. Choi Min-sik himself was amused. And that seems a little more apt. ”

"Well, senior, you can ask the lawyer to draw up a contract yourself, and then we can give it to me when we meet next Wednesday. Jin Zhongming stood up speechlessly and prepared to leave.

"Absolutely. Choi Min-sik nodded. But then he remembered something. "Next Wednesday is the internal test screening of your 'Old Boy'?"

"That's right. Jin Zhongming stood up angrily and replied. "Didn't I text you?"

"That's not what it means. Choi Min-sik waved his hand. "Director Park Chan-wook is also going, I'll tell you first. ”

"Welcome. When he said this, Jin Zhongming had already walked to the door. And although he didn't understand why a director of Park Chan-wook's level would come to watch a short film, he couldn't object to it since he was going to cheer for it, right? However, Kim Jong-myung, who opened the door and walked out half a step, immediately turned back. "What do you mean, why would director Park Chan-wook specifically want to see my "Old Boy"?"

"What do you say?" asked Choi Min-sik rhetorically. "You're not really a parody of our 'Old Boy', are you? ”

"Hey, that's right!" replied Kim Jong-ming with a dark face. "How about Jiang Hudong playing your role and Liu Zaishi playing Liu Zhitai's role? Jiang Hudong even swallowed 800 octopuses alive! Do you want to sue me?"

Choi Min-sik didn't lose his temper at all. Instead, he saw Jin Zhongming leave, in fact, just by looking at the other party's reaction, he already understood that this "Old Boy" had nothing to do with his "Old Boy", but now his curiosity was even stronger.

"Of course it's okay to sign your company. Yoon Eun-hye smiled and stirred up the coffee spoon in front of him. "Anyway, the company I run now is the kind of person who is running it, and of course it's okay to rely directly on your name. ”

Half an hour later. Kim Jong Ming saw his third and last target today at a café, but he was a little sleepy as soon as the other party's first sentence came out, because Yoon Eun-hye's smile when he said this was very similar to Choi Min-sik.

"But what?" asked Kim with a yawn. "Sister, do you want to talk about it next?"

"Hey, but. Yoon Eun-hye nodded awkwardly. "But I'm actually going to take a year or two off when my contract expires, to recharge, to take classes, to learn about costume design and some directing. You see, I'm four years older than you, and I'm almost ready for what I'll do after I'm thirty."

"Do you want to take a break for a year or two?" Jin Zhongming was completely helpless.

"But I can still take ads. Yoon Eun-hye replied seriously. "I'm very sought after in the advertising market, especially at the high end"

"I don't expect to make that money. Jin Zhongming waved his hand. "Forget it, you'll be the last thing next month, as long as you're in my new company, you're already helping me to a large extent. Why don't you prepare a contract yourself? Don't say that you can't sign a contract or not, in fact, you should just be attached here. ”

"Then I thank you. Yoon Eun-hye replied staring at the spring rain outside the glass window. "I have always thought about how happy and free it is to run a company alone, and when the company really opens, I find out that it is really firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and these things have to be closed when you open the door, and it should be a lot easier to lean on your side. ”

Jin Zhongming didn't say much, but yawned again.

"Haven't slept all night?" Yoon Eun-hye glanced at Kim Jong-myeong. "I thought what you said happened a few days ago. ”

"How is that possible? What I'm talking about started last night. Jin Zhongming nodded and replied. "And although my company is relatively large, there are a lot of people, but if you are really busy with one thing, it is tiring enough, not to mention anything else, just you, Cui Minzhi's senior, and Mr. An Shengji, which of these three people does not need me to talk in person? But fortunately, you all agreed, and I can also explain to the group of people in my own company." ”

"Really?" Yoon Eun-hye continued to stir up the coffee noncommittally, while her eyes moved to the rain curtain outside the window. "I heard that you bought that store too?"

"Changed hands again. Of course, Jin Zhongming knew what the other party was asking. "It was supposed to be a gift for an elder who has been at home all the year round, but she didn't have the heart to take care of a café, so I sold it again. ”

"It's a shame. Yoon Eun-hye replied indifferently. "It's a coffee shop and a new company, are you rich?"

"How do you say money? It's always the focus of people's instincts!" Jin Zhongming couldn't figure out what the other party was thinking, so he had to pick up his coffee cup and talk nonsense. "But barely. What, are you short of money?"

"I'm not short of money at all. Yoon Eun-hye shook her head. "Didn't I tell you? I'm very popular with advertisers, especially for luxury goods. ”

Jin Zhongming finished a cup of coffee speechlessly, and beckoned the waiter to refill the cup.

"Are you familiar with Jiang Hudong?" Yoon Eun-hye continued to ask a question that left people speechless.

"Sister, are you not familiar with him, what do you want to say?" Jin Zhongming asked as he picked up a new cup of coffee, and his spirit was much better after the previous cup of coffee. "Can't you just tell me what's going on in your head right now? I'll just leave without saying anything, I want to go back to sleep now!"

"I'm thinking about Kim Jong Kook. Yoon Eun-hye raised his eyes to look at Kim Jong-ming's face and replied very calmly.

And Jin Zhongming was directly choked.
