CJ E&M: Shi Zhenqiu is already familiar with this.

Not only did I come last time, but now I am next to Shi Zhenqiu's residence, and I can pass by when I have nothing to do.

All the way to Li Meijing's office, the acquaintances from last time were there.

"Hahaha, our screenwriter Shi, your movies are in post-production, don't you care about it?"

As soon as she came up, Li Meijing angrily accused.

"Unforgiven" is now even finishing post-production, and CJ has also set a date, and the premiere will be scheduled for January next year.

It's all over, and there's not even a month left.

But this screenwriter is good, the old god is there, and he actually ignores it.

Shi Zhenqiu really didn't care.

"I'm just a screenwriter, and I'm only responsible for writing scripts. The other shooting, production, editing, that's your job, it's none of my business. ”

"This guy ......"

"It's too easy to get the money, isn't it?"

Good guy, a room full of bigwigs in the film industry criticized him, and they all laughed angrily.

They seem to be in high positions of power and have a lot of influence over the film industry. can be calculated carefully, there is no Shi Zhenqiu's chic.

When people throw the script at them, they don't care about anything.

What about them, they have to run back and forth, to ensure the logistics of film shooting, and they are busy until dark, so why bother?

Shi Zhenqiu also knew that he was a little angry with the public, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Okay, everyone, everyone's time is busy, let's discuss the new script. ”

As he spoke, he handed the printed scripts to everyone.

Li Meijing took it in her hand, and just read the name of the script, she had a preliminary idea.

"Lonely agent? is this an action scene?"

Shi Zhenqiu nodded and explained to everyone.

"This story is about the story of an agent of the National Intelligence Agency who has encountered an accident and a little girl in the neighborhood. It exposes some lesser-known crimes, and the overall style tends to be dark and heavy. ”

As they spoke, everyone had slowly looked at it.

"Ah, it's really heavy, and it also involves drugs. ”

Shi Zhenqiu nodded.

The contradiction in the story starts with Xiaomi's mother stealing the gangster's drugs. Then it will lead to a variety of criminal forms such as organ smuggling, criminal transportation, and illegal communication. ”

Everyone is a professional, and it is natural to look at the script from a different angle.

Some people are evaluating the perfection of the plot, some are considering whether the action scenes are exciting or not, and some people are considering the investment budget.

Anyway, the movie script is very fast.

Even after reading it, Li Meijing was a little unsatisfied.

"Ah, Screenwriter Shi, are you ...... Have you ever sinned? How do you know about this way of using children to transfer drugs and money?"

Shi Zhenqiu was stunned for a while, and couldn't help scratching his head.

He can't tell Li Meijing, this is all a script provided by the voice, right?

The problem is that the description of the process of crime in "Lone Agent" is really chilling and extremely unexpected. After watching it, people can't help but be amazed.

In the end, he had to laugh and find another excuse.

"Anni, I'm a legal citizen. The case in this plot is very similar to the Chinatown smuggling case that was cracked a few years ago, and I borrowed from that adaptation. ”

Li Meijing accepted this statement, and only this statement can make sense.

Someone else suggested something different.

"Screenwriter Shi, in the last part, wouldn't it be better to let the agent shoot himself, and then Xiaomi squatted next to him and cried?"

Shi Zhenqiu thought about it carefully, and finally rejected the proposal.

"Look at this, this sentence from the agent. Even if you find the child, you both have to die. This sentence is hysterical enough, and it has already paved the way for Cha Tae-sik's madness. It would be very exciting to end with his death in the end. I'm worried, if this is the ending, how will the audience who has seen the film face the world outside the cinema?"

"Lonely Agent" is a very dark movie, and all the heinous criminal methods in it are enough to torture people's hearts.

If the good guy Cha Tae-sik dies at the end of the film, the audience will go crazy.

In the past two years, due to political fluctuations, the people have already had a lot of dissatisfaction with society. If it is also expressed in the movie, Shi Zhenqiu is really afraid of serious consequences.

Listening to his explanation, the whole room fell into silence, and they were also thinking about the artistic conception conveyed by the film.

After half an hour, Li Meijing asked, "How is it, everyone, do you have any opinions on this movie?"

As a result, everyone shook their heads and had no opinions.

"The script is already well established and totally worth operating. ”

"This should be a rare good script in the past two years, and we should put it on the screen. ”

One or two, these directors are all of the same opinion, and it also means that the resolution has been passed.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Li Meijing smiled slightly and stretched out her hand to Shi Zhenqiu.

"Screenwriter Shi, it looks like we're going to work together again. Rest assured, the price will definitely satisfy you this time. ”

Shi Zhenqiu was also happy, after all, he had fulfilled a wish.

"I'm also looking forward to working together again. ”

Didn't wait until the next day.

As soon as he heard that Shi Jinqiu's script had been approved by CJ Group, Yoon Jong-shin immediately sent a lawyer over and held negotiations with Lee Mi-jung and others.

In the end, the script of "Lonely Agent" was purchased by CJ Group for 350 million yuan, and in addition, Shi Zhenqiu also enjoyed 1% of the final box office revenue.

For this price, Shi Zhenqiu is very satisfied.

He knew that "Lonely Agent" finally achieved a total box office of 6.2 million, ranking first in the box office of Korean movies in 2010.

Then from the box office channel alone, he can get 620 million in revenue.

In addition, other incomes such as DVDs and copyrights have not been calculated, and a movie can make him get more than one billion.

CJ Group has always been quick to move in terms of film operations, and it didn't give Shi Jinqiu much time to spare. After the contract was signed, it was time for formal discussions.

Li Meijing and the others also knew Shi Zhenqiu's habits, and they all looked at him as soon as they came up.

Shi Zhenqiu was stunned for a long time, but quickly reacted.

"Director Li Zhenfan is senior enough, he is suitable for this style. ”

Li Zhenfan is not a director with many works, and there was only one "Hot Blooded Man" before. But the objects of cooperation are Xue Jingqiu, Zhao Hanshan, and Luo Wenji.

This movie has a good review, and it can be regarded as a good start for Li Zhenfan's directorial career.

It is worth mentioning that "Hot Boy" is also a film released by CJ Group. And the person in charge at that time was Li Meijing, who was the head of the film distribution department at the time.

Hearing Shi Zhenqiu's recommendation, Li Meijing was familiar with it and also recognized this candidate.

Compared with the director, everyone cares more about the actor.

"This protagonist is an agent, so he has high requirements in terms of body and movement. There are not many suitable actors, Zheng Yusheng, Zhao Yincheng, Zhang Dongjian and others. ”

Hearing everyone's thoughts, Shi Zhenqiu smiled, but said an unexpected candidate.

"Guys, I think Wonbin is better. ”

"What?"

"Yuan Bin?"

"Has he ever acted in an action scene?"

"Will he be able to play such a role?"

No wonder everyone doubts this candidate, because the public's impression of Yuan Bin is too deep.

This is not a pure movie actor, compared to movies, he has starred in more TV series, and he is a famous flower boy.

It can even be said that Won Bin is the originator of Korean beautiful actors.

It is really surprising that such a handsome actor should play a tough agent.

But Shi Zhenqiu is a screenwriter, and what he says is more authoritative.

"Everyone, you may have overlooked, it's not like Yuan Bin hasn't acted in action scenes. The completion of the killer company and the Tai Chi flag flying is very high. ”

Only then did everyone remember that Yuan Bin had already starred in action movies in addition to the well-known image of a beautiful man.

And think about Yuan Bin's appearance, he really has operability in appearance.

Li Meijing clapped her hands, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and decided to respect Shi Zhenqiu's opinion.

"In this way, Director An, you are responsible for contacting Yuan Bin. How this role will end up depends on Wonbin's thoughts. ”

If you think about it, acting is a two-sided thing.

It's not that everyone here discusses and decides, and it's OK. If other actors are unwilling, no matter how much they say, it is useless.

Regarding the main role of Zheng Xiaomi, Li Meijing also put forward her own ideas.

"How about letting Kim Yu-jung act?"

Kim Yu-jung is a well-known child actress, and in recent years, she can be seen in well-known movies such as "Hwang Jin-yi", "Chaser" and "Haeundae".

So when it comes to child actors, Lee Mi-jeong thinks of Kim Yu-jung.

But Shi Zhenqiu still vetoed her idea.

"Kim Yu-jung's image is too warm and soft. Zheng Xiaomi is a person who walks alone on the streets, and needs a bit of elf eccentric temperament. I recommend Kim Sae Ron. ”

is also a child actor, Kim Sae-ron's fame cannot be compared with Kim Yu-jung.

Li Meijing had no choice but to let people record it, and slowly contacted her when she turned around.

For the rest of the important roles, Shi Zhenqiu also put forward corresponding candidates one by one.

The most brilliant subordinate of Wan Zhi, the actor who had a short-blade fight with Yuan Bin, Shi Zhenqiu named Thai actor Tannayong Wang Traku to play.

The police captain is still Kim Tae-hoon, and he is also a Mesozoic who has been active for many years.

Wan Sik can't be wrong, it must be Kim Hee Won.

Wan Zhi's younger brother Zong Seok, the madman who spoke strangely, Shi Zhenqiu named Kim Sung-woo.

President Wu Mingkui is played by Song Yingchang, who is very similar to Qin Pei, and the old lady of human traffickers is Bai Xiulian.

These are the main characters.

There are also some supporting roles with a lot of shots, but Shi Zhenqiu advocated an interview.

For example, the role of Xiaomi's mother, he knows that it is played by Kim Hyo-shu.

But the problem is that this character has shots that need to be naked. Time has passed, and Shi Zhenqiu doesn't know if people are willing to act.

Anyway, there are not so many scenes, there are young and beautiful actresses, and it doesn't matter if you change someone.

explained the interview with Li Meijing, and Shi Zhenqiu could finally put the movie on the go and busy promoting his album.

This time, he came to KBS and starred in a show where the MC was annoyed to see him - "happy together 3".
