Chapter 078 Surprises Always Come So Naturally (2 in 1)
"So be it. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info" In his living room, Kim Jong-ming chuckled and nodded to Lee Byung-hun opposite. "Senior, go back with peace of mind, I'll give an order to my financial team tomorrow, and as for the things on the actors' guild, I'll leave it to you accordingly. β
"If I can, I will do my best. Lee Byung-hun stood up as if he had unloaded a huge burden. "Rest assured. β
"So be it. Jin Zhongming repeated this sentence again, and then stood up as well. "The two of you can go back and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the good day with peace of mind, I won't send it, the seniors are also forty years old, and the people around you still have to cherish it." β
Lee Min-jung and Lee Byung-hun glanced at each other, but they didn't know how to respond to such a 'kind reminder'. Speaking of which, the two of them have only known each other for one night, but they have reached the point where they are the most honest between men and women, and this honesty is not only physical, but even mental...... You must know that it was not only Lee Byung-hun who confessed his knot to Lee Min-jeong, but it was also Lee Min-jeong's persuasion that made Lee Byung-hun completely determined to lose his sincerity to Kim Jong-myung...... In the face of pressure and gentle persuasion, he made a completely different choice from Kim Jong-ming and Song Kang-ho, but it was also blameless.
So...... After going back, he really needs to have a good discussion about life with Li Minzhen, a woman.
Sending these two people out, Jin Zhongming didn't rush to sleep after he came back, because there were too many and miscellaneous things that happened from yesterday to now, and many of them would seriously affect the future, so he needed to sort it out first......
In this way, Kim Jong-ming sat back on the sofa, and then began to close his eyes and comb the situation.
However, after thinking about it for a few minutes, even if he didn't know Song Kanghao's mind at this time, Jin Zhongming still found that what he gained this night seemed to be mostly fruitful. Of course, in fact, he had already calculated in the car before meeting Li Bingxian, but at that time, he found that it would be difficult to calculate the gains and losses for a while, and there were so many that he couldn't reason about the consequences and impacts. And now, Lee Byung-hun is here, which is a great thing, because no matter what this person's character is, when it comes to the Korean film industry, in the case of Zhang Dongjian's decline, Lee Byung-hun is indeed a figure who is only ranked behind the troika, not to mention that he still has BH Entertainment in hand. Therefore, a very simple math problem, it was difficult to distinguish the gains and losses before, and a good thing, then he made a lot of money all day before.
However, just when Kim Jong-ming sighed at Lee Byung-hun's attitude, and on the other hand, he was proud of his toughness when he faced Aunt Park before, he felt that his neck suddenly had a cool feeling, and it seemed that someone was blowing on his neck!
Turning his head, Jin Zhongming was a little busy to see a girl with a disheveled head leaning on the back of the sofa, and her chin twisting around the axis, and smiled at him slightly after seeing him open his eyes...... Well, considering that this is the wee hours of the morning, it is the heaviest time of the day, and if someone else else is different, maybe the white hair and sweat will come out.
However, Jin Zhongming reached out and knocked on the door of the head, knocking the other party directly off the sofa.
"What are you doing, Wood?" said Krystal crouched down with his head in his hands and stood up again. "Hit someone as soon as you meet?"
"Why don't you sleep in the middle of the night and ask me why?" Jin Zhongming was speechless. "Where did you get the mind to run out and eavesdrop?"
"I didn't eavesdropper...... Krystal sat down after circling the couch, not forgetting to hold little Baker, who had slept like a dead dog, in his arms on the way. "I was awakened by the sound of your voices...... Wood, why do you want Lee Byung-hun to be the president of the Actors Guild?"
"I'd love to. Kim Jong-ming didn't want to say more.
"Then why are you coming back now?" said Krystal to change the subject. "My sister said that you left the banquet at 11 o'clock, and I didn't say hello to her. β
"Went to the pier. Jin Zhongming was full of nonsense. "The black boss wants to collect our company's protection fee, and I dare not delay time. β
"And then?" Krystal knew of course that her brother was and fooling herself, but she was in such high spirits that she climbed straight down the pole. "What about the hundreds of people in your security company, didn't you fight with them?"
"There was no fight. Kim Jong-ming continued to run the train with his mouth full. "How many of the current black bosses really dare to use knives and guns in the open? Seeing that I am so many and tough, he doesn't dare to accept ......."
"Really?" Krystal nodded perfunctorily. "What about your actor trophy, bring it to me and play with it, I won't bother you. β
Jin Zhongming was slightly stunned, he had done a big business all night, and he really didn't pay attention to where the trophy was.
"Lost?" Krystal asked playfully. "Or was it used by the gang to offset the protection money?"
"......" Jin Zhongming was silent for a few seconds. "You know?"
"Over there in the Girls' Generation dormitory. Krystal exhaled sullenly. "Even Sailun was kidnapped by that group of gangsters, and they also posted on SNS asking you for ransom......"
"Ahh "I remember, the trophy was kept by Sailun as soon as it came, and then I gave Sailun to them for safekeeping......"

"Don't talk about that, Wood?"
"Hmm. β
"You said before, you want to take Sister Chu Long to China?"
"Hmm. β
"When are you going?"
"Right now. β
"Was that a confession and a promise?"
"No...... Count as well. β
"You're so weird. β
"I'm weird, she's not weird. β
"What the hell is going on?"
"It's hard to say. β
"I don't understand. β
"If you don't understand, that's right. Jin Zhongming closed his eyes and replied. "Actually, that night, it wasn't so much that she confessed to me, but that I confessed to her...... It's just that I'm a very cowardly person, so I used a very cowardly way to deal with it......"
"I see. β
"You know again?"
"Actually, Wood, you're pretty nervous, aren't you?" Krystal said, shaking his head. "At first, I was a little hesitant because I had that experience. I finally felt that someone was really nice to you, but I wanted to settle down but I was nervous, and it ended up like this. But don't worry, I think Sister Chu Long can understand you, she has always been a very understanding person. And, she's ...... to you It's really the kind of ...... that has always been deep."
"I hope so. Kim Jong-ming continued to respond with his eyes closed. "Suddenly so tired......"
"It's so normal. Krystal stopped shaking her head, and she began to spin around Beck's head as he woke up. "People, if you say something that you have been worried about, and you are comforted a little, it will naturally loosen the strings. What's more, it's your beautiful, smart, and lovely sister who comforts you...... Are you saying that I am right?...... Wood ...... Wood?"
Kim Jong Ming fell asleep. Starting yesterday morning, he first translated a speech carefully, then had a frank face-to-face exchange with Professor Ahn Cheol-so, then the award ceremony, then the banquet, then visited Aunt Park, and later went to Song Kang-ho's house, and even when he returned home, he met Lee Byung-hun again...... All kinds of things require mental effort. Therefore, when the taut string is broken at this moment, the whole person immediately falls asleep, without any process.
Krystal tilted his head speechlessly to look at the other party, and couldn't help but sigh slightly. Then the little girl got up and put Baker back to the kennel, but instead of going straight to her room to sleep, she turned back to the couch. I saw that she first placed two cushions at one end of the sofa, and then threw the rest of the cushions to the single sofa next to her, and after ensuring the flatness of the sofa, she gently pushed Jin Zhongming to the side of the cushion. Moreover, she didn't forget to pull off the other party's still wet shoes. After everything was done, she went to wash her hands and went back to her room to sleep.
However, in less than five minutes, Krystal ran out again, she first went to her brother's room and brought out a thin quilt and put it on the other party, then turned on the air conditioner, thought about it, and adjusted it to 26 degrees.
After doing this action, the little girl still stood in the living room with the remote control of the air conditioner and tilted her head slightly to think about it, and only after making sure that nothing was missed did she really go back to sleep.
In other words, she slept late last night, and was woken up by someone in the middle of the night today, and her brother was not the only one who felt tired.
After a night's sleep, oh no, after a good morning's sleep, Kim Jong Ming woke up to find that it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon, and even Krystal had disappeared.
After taking a shower, eating, and changing clothes, Kim Jong-ming instinctively wanted to call and ask Krystal where she had been on the weekend. Moreover, it seems that he still has an important matter to explain to Liu Qingxuan. It's just that at this time, he remembered that his mobile phone had run out of battery before the big bell award last night...... Otherwise, Su Xiaoya would not have been unable to find herself.
After charging the battery and turning on the phone, after Liu Qingxuan explained the matter to the past, Jin Zhongming temporarily gave up the idea of contacting Krystal. After all, it doesn't matter where the little girl goes to play, and the mobile phone is as he thought, full of congratulatory messages and calls, although it doesn't make much sense, but it's a human exchange, so you have to reply as much as possible.
All the messages seemed the same, and the congratulatory text messages were all those words. However, it is worth mentioning that when he turned to his teacher's congratulatory text message, Jin Zhongming was a little disappointed, because this congratulatory text message was no different from other people, and it seemed extremely ordinary. It seems that our national actor is determined to pick a good pick with his students in the movie. But then again, who's afraid of whom?
But at this moment, when Jin Zhongming was sitting on the sofa and replying to the same words of thanks one by one, a text message with a very flat tone was suddenly inserted, which seemed incompatible with the rest of the congratulatory text messages. But it was this plain text message that made Kim Jong-ming, who had always been a little lacking in interest, instantly excited, because it was Song Kang-ho's text message.
The content of the text message is very simple, Mr. Song Da Bi said that he thought about it for a while and hoped to talk to Jin Zhongming again......
Actually, as soon as Kim Jong Ming replied to the text message, he began to look for the clothes on the door.
The place where the two met is very suggestive, this is Song Kang-ho's agency. And maybe they met last night, and they directly touched on the core issue, this time, the two of them chatted really quickly, and it only took about ten minutes from beginning to end, and then, Song Kanghao and Kim Jong Ming went directly to the office of the representative of Uncle Flatbread's brokerage company.
Well, no matter how you evaluate Uncle Flatbread, he can be called a pure actor, which no matter how demanding his Korean counterparts and people are, they will not deny it. And as a pure actor, he almost strives not to cause trouble to anyone. Even, this no-bothersome attitude is reflected in his brokerage activities.
In other words, changing someone else to his position is nothing more than three ways in this regard.
First of all, it is like An Shengji before, who does not sign any economic company, does it alone, or builds a studio to hang in the past, but still makes his own decisions.
Then, it is to learn from Li Bingxian, Song Chengxian and even Kim Zhongming, that is, to open a brokerage company and be the boss, not only to make his own decisions, but also to use his influence to pull people and promote younger generations. And if the company really grows bigger, it will naturally be able to help its acting career.
And the third one is also very common, this way is actually very simple, three words - signing fee! There are too many people who choose this way, Jang Dongjian, Ha Ji Won, Jeon Do-yeon...... There is nothing to hide, and there is no need to blame anything, as an artist, you can't talk about interests, whoever gives more money will go wherever you want. Especially for those who are really famous, when the value of their own contracts has exceeded the actual income from brokerage activities, under normal circumstances, when encountering an ambitious economic company, it is normal to sign a sky-high contract.
Song Kanghao's behavior is very similar to the third one, the contract to the futures ratio of three, and then pick one to sign. However, he has debuted for so many years and changed several economic companies, but he has never asked for the so-called sky-high contract, not to mention that he is often involved in the company's equity structure like Zhang Dongjian and Ha Jiyuan. Uncle Flatbread is to see which one's terms of service are good, which one is more serious, of course, he must also look at the share, and then feel that the contract or the person is pleasing to the eye, then sign a three-year and five-year one, and there is no signing fee, and there is no additional activity, anyway, it is the fairest and easiest way to contract.
Of course, no matter how simple the contract economy company is, it will definitely not suffer a loss, and even make a lot of money.
Without him, the first brother of our company is Song Kang-ho! Just like that, the three-year contract has an additional hidden value worth 10 billion won......
Therefore, when Song Kang-ho and Kim Jong-ming appeared side by side at the desk of the boss of the economic company to which Uncle Flatbread currently belongs, the other party really didn't think of anything about the contract, because in his opinion, Song Kang-ho is definitely not the kind of person who does not pay attention to faith.
However, what made the boss feel incomprehensible was that the other party really seemed to have said such ruthless and unrighteous words.
"Representative Zhang. Song Kanghao said calmly. "Although the contract does not expire until the end of 11, I hope to be able to terminate it early......"
The representative of this economic company, which only had four well-known actors in hand, was stunned. By the way, of the other three so-called well-known actors, the highest one has been shortlisted for Best Supporting Actress at the Blue Dragon Award once...... That's all.
And Song Kanghao is currently in such a company.
"If you want to terminate the contract, I have nothing to say......" Zhang Dai still didn't expect Jin Zhongming to be on his face for a while, he thought that this guy was coming in some capacity as the vice chairman of the Artist Rights Mutual Aid Committee. "I ...... I know very well that you have done your best for our company. You came to me after "Righteous Brothers" before, saying that you were going to rest for a while, and I accepted it calmly at that time...... I mean, there shouldn't be too many misunderstandings between us, right? I was very happy to say yes, and I understand your frustration and exhaustion......"
"Representative Zhang, you misunderstood. Song Kang-ho snorted. "There's nothing unpleasant between us, on the contrary, it's just that because we've always been happy, I don't want to cause trouble for you. β
The representative was even more confused.
"Song Kanghao's predecessors always have to consider the past when they speak. Jin Zhongming chuckled beside him. "Not easy. So, let me talk about it. β
"Mr. Jin Zhongming, please speak. This representative Zhang immediately stretched out his hand to Jin Zhongming with some helplessness.
The answer is simple. Jin Zhongming replied with a relaxed face. "The 11th year is coming, and in terms of the cycle of movies, the public opinion struggle related to the 12-year presidential election is about to start again. β
Zhang Dai's heart immediately chuckled, he instinctively remembered the culprit who made Song Kanghao prepare to 'rest' for a year or two - "The Barber of Xiaozidong", and then he thought of the TV series that is now on the air - "Big Things". "Big Things" is a TV series that tells the story of South Korea's first female president, and everyone knows who made this TM, SBS quietly took refuge in Ms. Park, which simply stunned the other two, and MBC TV, which is obviously Ms. Park as the chairman of the nine-member committee, has already started to jump in turn.
This kind of is really scary.
However, after the heart was over, Deputy Zhang immediately became even more confused. After all, he is also a representative of a brokerage company, and he still has actors like Song Kang-ho under him, but it is precisely because of this that he understands some things very well. For example, what is going on with Kim Jong-myung's CUBE about to shoot "The Crucible", and what is going on between Song Kang-ho and Moon Jae-in...... But why did the two of you, who are obviously two families, get together again?
"It seems that you know this well in your heart, so let me say it more thoroughly. Jin Zhongming lowered his head and straightened out his black blazer. "Once the general election begins, the major chaebols above will not be mentioned, and the three major newspapers will not be mentioned, but in our industry, which one of the TV stations, film circles, and song circles can hide? There are always people who either actively or passively jump out and wave their flags and shout. Although Song Kang-ho's predecessors and I have different positions, we have the same intention of jointly safeguarding the dignity of Korean films. So, we just stood in your company lobby and chatted...... Less than ten minutes. We felt that if the two of us could use a certain action to strongly express the unity of Korean filmmakers before the film started, then we could try to return the focus to the film itself, rather than the ridiculous political disputes, even if we made a movie that didn't quite match the political style!"
"I ...... It's kind of a reaction. The representative looked at Kim Jong-ming with a strange expression, and then looked at Song Kang-ho. "You two mean ......"
"What do you think ......" Kim Jong-ming pinched his chin. "If I switch to the same agency as Song Kanghao's predecessors, will the effect be better when the movie comes out?"
Switching to the same company, yes, yes! But anyway, Kim Jong-ming can't throw away the huge cube foundation to come to himself, right? What's more, this kind of political dispute is not something that he, a small shrimp, is qualified to participate in. This requires confronting pressure from the highest levels in South Korea...... In the Korean film circle, there are no more than ten people with this ability just by feeling. Moreover, it is not possible to consider whether these people are willing to do it. However, what is certain is that there are two such people in Jin Zhongming's company now, An Shengji and him Jin Zhongming. And there are two people in front of him, Kim Jong-myung and Song Kang-ho. And if it is done, it will be three people...... This math problem is a little easier!
"I see. Deputy Zhang, who had been thinking for a long time, suddenly exhaled. "Indeed...... I have no reason to refute it in public or private. Even to be honest, Mr. Song Kanghao was able to take the initiative to come to me with Mr. Kim Jong-myeong, which is really benevolent and righteous......"
"You can't say that. Jin Zhongming suddenly chuckled and reached out to stop the other party. "If you are private, Zhang still has reason to object. After all, Song Kanghao's predecessors are here, even if he doesn't act in movies, it will bring great benefits to the company...... Besides, Song Kang-ho's predecessors left suddenly, even after the movie came out next year, everyone had an understanding. But now, there's always gossip, right? It's going to be a big shake for the rest of your company's artists, right?"
Deputy Zhang laughed dryly, don't look at the joy of his promise, but it is true that as Jin Zhongming said, he is unwilling. But is it okay to be unwilling? If Song Kanghao really asks Song Kanghao to make another "The Barber of Xiaozidong" during his company's contract period, then he estimates that he will ask the other party to leave. In a sense, Song Kanghao is right, he really doesn't want to get himself into trouble by doing this. The so-called sky falls down and he is tall, and he doesn't need to have too many ideas.
It's just that the reason why he said this in his words was actually in case he still had the idea of what happened, that is, Kim Jong-ming, who had won a lot of profits, might give him a little compensation for Song Kang-ho's face. And now it seems that he did make the right bet.
In other words, regardless of the political pressure and the dignity of Korean films, if these things are put aside, the influence gained by Kim Jong-myung after gathering the troika of Korean films will far exceed the value of Song Kang-ho alone, because this is a milestone achievement! Even, this is still worth compared with any political pressure! Because from today on, Kim Jong-myung has almost reached a historic new height in terms of control over Korean actors!
"I'll inject money. Jin Zhongming continued to chuckle knowingly. "For a 10% share, you can quote a suitable price, which is also a little compensation...... Song Kanghao's predecessors, you don't have to think about it, an unreasonable price is also necessary, not just a matter of money, at least insiders will understand after seeing this action that our termination and signing this time are actually completely goodwill. β
Song Kanghao, who originally wanted to say something, also nodded, while Representative Zhang on the opposite side nodded a long time ago.
In this way, on the afternoon of Saturday, October 30, 2010, Kim Jong-ming officially signed the exclusive agency contract of the famous Korean actor Song Kang-ho, with a maximum limit of seven years.
As soon as the news came out, the South Korean media, which had just been hotly discussing Kim Jong-myung's winning of the Korean Daejong Award for Best Actor with the attitude of the public, was completely bursting with it! Because just as the representative Zhang of Song Kang-ho's former company thought, Ahn Sung-ki, Choi Min-sik, and Song Kang-ho, the contract change of one or two of these three people may only be an entertainment short message, and no ordinary people will pay attention to it. However, when these three people actually abandoned all their names and belonged to the same company, it couldn't help but make people think...... Does Kim Jong-ming already have this influence? Can he even bypass those unwritten rules, and even bypass the completely different positions of the three people, and forcibly become the boss of these three people, even if they are the nominal bosses? Or is it Choi Min-sik and Song Kang-ho who united around Ahn Sung-gi and Kim Jong-myung, the teacher and student, as analyzed by some media?
And no matter what, the facts are in front of you.
However, Cube and Kim Jong Ming didn't seem to think that things were lively enough, and the next day, that is, on the afternoon of the last day of October, the official website of Cube announced another bombshell information, they completed the capital injection of the other two agencies in the name of J-Cube, a company that operates exclusive contracts for actors.
It's okay, it's Song Kanghao's previous company, 10% of the shares, and when you close your eyes, you know that it is a kind of appeasement and compensation. But the name of another company is a bit numbing, especially for film actors and related agencies all over Korea!
This company is called BH Entertainment...... Lee Byung-hun's company.
J-Cube spent 8 billion won to acquire a 30% stake in the company. It's hard to say about the price, it's really hard to say, and no one knows whether this price is suitable or not. However, after all, it is Lee Byung-hun's company, not to mention the value of Han Ga-in, Gao Xiu, and Han Hyo-joo, let's just talk about Lee Byung-hun! According to the previous media's thinking, does this mean that Lee Byung-hun has also united around Ahn Sung-gi and Kim Jong-myung?
Of course, in the face of inquiries from familiar media, CUBE solemnly stated that this is just a normal investment behavior in the company's development process, and Mr. Kim Jong-ming, the representative of J-Cube, and Mr. Lee Byung-hun, the representative of BH Entertainment, made it very clear to each other when discussing this investment intention before, and the two parties do not interfere with the normal operation of the company......
Anyway, the common people of any country are being coaxed to play. However, when the actors all over South Korea thought of the three words Kim Jong-myung, their hearts were cold.
One weekend, although some people still don't know what Song Kang-ho is about, there is no doubt about subduing Lee Byung-hun. In the eyes of characters with more sensitive minds and smoother information channels, Kim Jong-ming first won the actor within three days, then subdued Song Kang-ho, and finally subdued Lee Byung-hun......
In the eyes of people at a higher level, if you add the original Ahn Sung-ki, Choi Min-sik, and Jun Ji-hyun in Kim Jong-myung's company (we have to put aside Yoo Jae-seok and Yoon Eun-hye here, because these two don't make movies), as well as Han Hyo-joo and others from BH Entertainment. Even, this counts all the Korean actors who received the favor of their teachers and students in the turmoil of the exclusive contract period and even the turmoil of the film quota system at the beginning......
Then, in this sense, in the chaotic and complex Korean film industry, there is finally a person or a teacher and student who have a one-to-one lineage, and they have completed the nominal suppression at the most basic human level.
Although it is only a rough idea, although there are still too many omissions, although it still needs the test of time. However, in the conversation between Ahn Sung-ki and Kim Jong-myung in the office, they really achieved the unification of one of the four levels of the so-called Korean film industry.
This is only the result of two days, but behind it is five or six years of hard work and fatigue.
"This result was already doomed as early as 06 when Ahn Sung-ki and Kim Jong-ming forced Roh Moo-hyun to sit down and negotiate, so there is no need to pay attention to it and concentrate on our own field. This was said by Aunt Park to Zheng Jinzhou, who was full of worries, and then was transferred to Jin Zhongming by Jin Qichun in the form of a text message late at night on the 31st.
By the way, this is not Secretary Jin's sudden affection for Jin Zhongming. In fact, after giving the other party a Go chess piece that night, Jin Zhongming suddenly felt that he had become good friends with Secretary Jin. So, on the morning of the 31st, he asked Jia Chao to give a car to Secretary Jin's newly adult sister...... Ferrari. And it turns out that Secretary Jin really regards Jin Zhongming as a good friend.
In other words, surprises always come so naturally.
ps: There are also book friend group 457160898, everyone add it.
Continue to wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival...... Before the holiday, there is a continuous explosion, why is there no time to code words during the holiday? It's very simple, there are more things on vacation, all kinds of entertainment...... Sure enough, people don't live for codewords, especially a part-time writer. Simply, this time I still have time to be fully attended. (To be continued.) )
