Chapter 121: Tough (I)
"Time is pressing!" Jin Zhongming took the first invitation letter that Zhang Mingzhun had just printed out and still had the scent of ink, and wrote the name Jin Zhongming neatly on it, and then he handed this to An Shengji, who had been watching him quietly, and An Shengji also stood up and signed his name.
Then Choi Min-sik also signed his name, and turned around and handed it to Zhang Dongjian behind him, and the celebrities who had been quiet before were staring at Zhang Dongjian tightly.
The beads of sweat on Zhang Dongjian's face came out, and he wanted to fool the past, but he looked back at the people who were guarding the door, and then looked up at Cui Minzhi, who had a meaty face, and honestly lowered his head and signed his name behind that cruel sentence.
Kim Jong-ming turned around and took the invitation letter signed with the names of four people, and came to the biggest female star here, Kim Hee-sun, with a countermeasure.
Kim Hee-sun smiled at Kim Jong-ming and did not hesitate to bow his head and sign his name. After all, the actress who has just become popular with her mythology is now ready to get married and become a kuotai, and if she doesn't cooperate, she won't cooperate, and it will have no impact on her. What's more, she was indeed shocked by Jin Zhongming, and she also had a trace of expectation for the final result in her heart, if it really happened, how good would it be to gain fame and fortune?
The behavior of the two biggest stars of Jang Dongjian and Kim Hee-sun gave the rest of the people a great shock, and the big names who were ready to participate in the sit-in demonstration, Cho In-sung, Lim so-kyung, Cha Tae-hyun, Lee Byung-hun, Ji Jin-hee, Song Yoon-a, Kim Rae-won, Shin Min-a, and finally Moon Geun-young, who was sitting by the door, and Kim Jong-ming's 'rumored boyfriend' Lee Joon-gi also signed their names!
"Print out another copy of this list, add a blank invitation letter, and send a stack to everyone on the scene!" Kim Jong-ming fully integrated into the role of the conductor.
"I'll go to the old thousands of sets to distribute this later. Teacher. I hope you can go to the set of a gorgeous vacation. Kim Jong Ming began to arrange everyone's work.
"Okay!" An Shengji had fully recovered his spirit at this time. Jin Zhongming's unhappiness in seizing power has also disappeared, after all, he also figured it out, and his student is still for his own good.
"Senior Choi Min-sik, you have to invite the fewest people, but the most important, please bring two invitation letters, go to meet Song Kang-ho senior once, and wait for him to sign before going to director Bong Joon-ho. With Song Kang-ho's predecessors in Bong, Director Bong will definitely sign it. ”
"Okay!" Choi Min-sik was unambiguous.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to reveal a piece of news to you, however, I'm afraid many people already know, that is, the directors' union has reached an agreement in private to support the reduction of quotas, so this time, as long as you have the opportunity, you must bring the directors over, as long as there are more than ten directors involved, the directors' union's decision-making will automatically become invalid! Don't take into account the gap between TV dramas and movies, TV drama actors are also the best candidates for this event. Find them, and bring them again!Finally, everyone, I am the youngest in this room, and I hope that you will not take it to heart, and I hope that you will work hard in the past two days, and try to rely on your own connections to pull your colleagues over, after all, Korean films still have to rely on the efforts of us filmmakers to truly revivenation!"
"Well said!"
"Don't worry!"
"Zhong Ming, we are very relieved that you are doing things!"
A group of big names and seniors who have never even seen Jin Zhongming before nodded their heads, no way, Jin Zhongming's aura today has completely suppressed this group of stars, not to mention that the life and death contracts have been signed, and it won't work hard if you don't work hard, and you will say a thousand things and ten thousand, and in the end, you still think about your own job!
If you don't get involved in this matter, forget it, since you have already done it, you have to hurry up and work quickly, so before noon, Jin Zhongming came to the set of Lao Qian with a stack of invitations.
"Zhong Ming, why are you here today, aren't you asking for leave?" Kim Hye-so immediately greeted him.
"Sister Hye-so, wait!" Kim Jong-ming patted his small backpack stuffed with invitations, and then jumped directly to the center of the set. "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm in for a treat at noon today, the barbecue shop opposite everyone!"
There was an immediate burst of cheers on set.
But only half an hour later, all the actors in the Lao Qian crew, plus director Choi Dongxun, were already grim-faced, and even Kim Jong-ming's expression was very serious.
There was no way, when Jin Zhongming handed over the invitations in his hand one by one, only Liu Haizhen signed without hesitation, which also made Jin Zhongming greatly improve his opinion of him, after all, he dared to act, but he only signed alone, and all the others, including Bai Yunzhi, looked at Cui Dongxun who was sitting in the middle, waiting for him to make a statement.
"Zhong Ming, you are really" Cui Dongxu covered his face and sighed.
"This matter is that I am sorry for Cui Daoyou, you made your attitude clear to me the day before the incident, but I still forced you to express your position like this. Kim Jong-myung sat next to Choi Dong-hoon, and a list of celebrities' signatures in the morning and a blank invitation letter were placed between the two, and he did not use the boycott of the Blue Dragon Award as an excuse, but directly said the whole thing.
"Then you are still?!" Cui Dongxu was really angry and threw his glasses directly on the table.
Jin Zhongming was silent, and picked up the glasses that had fallen in the garlic pile for the other party again. He knew very well in his heart that if he wanted to convince this crew, he only needed to convince Cui Dongxu alone, most of the people here were the descendants of this director who was in his forties and had gray hair. is as strong as Baek Yoon-sik, who has been mixing on KBS Channel 9, and then stepped into the film industry with Choi Dong-wook, not to mention Kim Yoon-seok and Kim Hye-so, who were discovered by Choi Dong-hoon. As for Kim Sang-ho, Lee so-kyung and others, as long as the others nodded, it would be difficult for them to sign or not.
"Zhong Ming, explain it to Dongxun. Bai Yunzhi couldn't stand it anymore, and tried to adjust the two of them.
"There's nothing to explain, this matter is that I can't live with Director Cui, but my teacher An Shengji is the chairman of the Death Committee, whether it's right or not, it's all my teacher, and I, Jin Zhongming, are tied to him. Kim Jong-ming opened his mouth and began to persuade everyone along the bridge built by Bai Yun-sik, but in fact, he still said it to Choi Dong-hoon next to him.
"I'll ask you, what if you don't sign it?" Cui Dongxun put on his glasses and directly had a showdown with Kim Jong-ming. There are three main reasons for his opposition, one is that as a member of the directors' union and he himself has no idea about the quota system in his heart, he is naturally not interested in the concept of the rigid committee; the second is that now public opinion and the Chosun Ilbo, the largest newspaper in South Korea, are on the opposite side, and he is likely to end up in a humiliating end if he gets involved; the third is Kim Jong-ming, to be honest, he really appreciates this young man, so he took the initiative to reveal the decision of the director's union, and now the other party wants to pull him into the gang, which is really a little sad。
"If I don't sign it, I will quit the crew!" Kim Zhongming was also uncomfortable, but it was difficult to ride a tiger, even if he had great expectations for this movie, he had to stand firm, this is not Hollywood and Hengdian, China, his location is Chungmuro, South Korea, if he really signs but breaks his promise, he can only quit the Korean entertainment industry.
"Are you crazy?" said Kim Sang-ho.
"I'm not crazy, it's just that I didn't expect the director's attitude to be so resolute, I have signed it, and it is clearly written that those who refuse will not be able to cooperate for life, I am even ready for liquidated damages, our film is going well, it has been completed in less than two months, and it is impossible for me to break my promise. Jin Zhongming also nodded on the invitation in front of him as he spoke, his words were not loud, but they made many people present deaf. What are you kidding, you also know that the movie is completed for seven years, and you are still looking for a starring role?
Cui Dongxun covered his face and was really helpless, he didn't expect Kim Jong-ming to have such a resolute attitude, he didn't care about any quota or committee, but movies were his foundation. Closing his eyes, he seemed to think of Kim Jong-myung's shot of turning over and lazily shouting 'Agasi', and Choi Dong-hoon softened.
"Say, is it a success?"
"Of course there is!" Kim Jong-ming immediately became excited when he saw Cui Dongxun's attitude, and hurriedly turned sideways to introduce him. "In fact, today, Senior Choi Min-sik has already taken this invitation to Song Kang-ho's predecessor and director Bong Joon-ho, and our committee has received a promise from NAVER that it will stand on our side, so that public opinion is quite sure that it will form a stalemate with Chosun Ilbo. And"
"Wait, NAVER is already on the side of the committee?" asked Lee so-kyung.
"That's right, I paid a special visit to Senior Li Haizhen a few days ago and had a careful chat with him. Seeing that someone was shaken, Jin Zhongming immediately explained diligently.
"Song Kang-ho, Choi Min-sik, Ahn Sung-gi, Jang Dong-kun, Dong-hoon, I think you can give it a try. Baek Yoon-sik also expressed his attitude, after all, he has a transcendent status, and everyone else has to pinch his nose to recognize what he says and does.
"What did you just say, and what?" Although Cui Dongxun's attitude was still very bad, the meaning of submission in his words was also obvious.
"And I think that with Jang Dong-jian and Choi Min-sik's predecessors, my teacher is already there, Director Kang Di-gyu shouldn't refuse, right?"
Kim Jong-myung's words immediately had a miraculous effect, and Choi Dong-hoon was immediately shaken!
Kang Digui, the current director in South Korea, is definitely in the top three, and he has a considerable status and influence in South Korea. As the first filmmaker to shave his head in the skinhead movement, he doesn't know where he stands, and more importantly, all of his current outstanding films are precisely with the three leaders of this movement. However, Kim Jong-myung did not use this to suppress Choi Dong-hoon, but because Choi Dong-hoon has a deep relationship with Kang Di-gyu. (To be continued......)
