Chapter 372 Adaptation (I)

"Bang dang!"

With an inopportune sound, a plate on the long dining table suddenly turned over, and then fell to the ground, which instantly attracted many members of the "Veteran" crew sitting around to put down the dishes and chopsticks in their hands and look at them nervously. After figuring out the source of the sound, for a while, the huge on-set dining area was silent.

In other words, this is the newly opened set in Yongsan-gu, Seoul after the "Veteran" crew finished filming at CUBE Company, and the entire loan is a newly relocated police station building.

And it's not for nothing that the crew members are so nervous, after all, the place where the sound just made is exactly the table where the crew creators are, and they seem to have been arguing fiercely about something before, and they almost lost control several times, which has already caused the big guys to feel upset in their hearts.

At this time, what made people even more panicked was that it was none other than Jin Zhongming, who had just arrived on the set. Seeing him like that, not only did he look bad, but he also had a hint of drunkenness and anger, and he didn't know who provoked him.

"What's wrong, Zhong Ming?" Liu Haizhen, who was seriously discussing what issue with Liu Chengguan, Huang Zhengmin and others, quickly stood up and asked...... It's really no way, Jin Zhongming really wants to lose his temper, and the whole crew is the one who has that face to stand up and persuade peace, no matter how famous the other directors and actors are.

"It's fine. Jin Zhongming, who was a little drunk, hurriedly waved his hand, and then kicked the plate under the table, and then sat down next to the other party with a black face. "I'm sorry, it's not the crew's business, it's just that I just found something very disgusting, and I really can't help it. You go on...... Suddenly called me over, you should have something to say, right? I remember that I didn't play today. ”

Of course, there is no role for him, in fact, no matter how you say that the protagonist of this "Veteran" is Huang Zhengmin, the role of the second generation of the chaebol Zhao Taiyu played by Kim Jong-ming is actually quite limited, and it can only be said that he barely keeps the position of a villain. And this set is a police station, and Kim Jong-ming's role has nothing to do with it from beginning to end.

"It's a little bit of a discussion about the plot, and we're a little bit at a loss. After Liu Chengguan heard that it was not about the crew, he wisely did not ask again, and the others hurriedly went back to continue to eat dinner. "So ask Zhong Ming for you to participate in the discussion. ”

"Tell me about it. Jin Zhongming hurriedly reined in his heart and said, no matter what, this movie is the one thing he has invested the most energy in at this stage. "But as I said in advance, I was eating with people before, and I drank two more glasses, and I encountered a disgusting thing, so I may not be able to keep up with everyone's train of thought......"

"Actually, there is a discussion about the turning point of the plot. Seeing that the other party was still sober, Huang Zhengmin hurriedly spoke. "Zhong Ming, you see, the turning point of the whole movie plot is nothing more than those two things, the sudden appearance of a key witness, which makes the criminal behavior of the second generation of chaebols directly presented, and the other is that the boss of the criminal police team was shocked by the sincerity and dedication of his subordinates, and then changed his position and chose to support his subordinates......"

"That's right. Jin Zhongming nodded. "This is the original plot of the manga, is there anything wrong?"

"I didn't think it was wrong, but everyone else felt it. Huang Zhengmin replied helplessly.

"That's right. Liu Chengguan hurriedly said, they decided to call Jin Zhongming over in the hope that the other party would help end the dispute. "Originally, when I took over the scene, I was in a hurry, and I just considered the shooting from a technical point of view, and I didn't think too much about it, but after filming all the way to the plot in front of me, I suddenly felt that these two points that contributed to the plot turn were a little too blunt. ”

"Director Yoo's idea makes sense. Oh Da-so, who had never spoken, also nodded. "You say, for example, the emergence of key witnesses. What is the reason given in the comics? It is that the chaebol does not treat his subordinates as human beings, and when he is in a bad mood, he breaks the leg of the sparring bodyguard on the fighting ring, and then throws the person out because the leg is wasted...... But in fact, at that time, the actor and the police were already in hot pursuit, in this case, even if the second generation of the chaebol acted tyrannically and perverted, even if the chaebol family disdained the low-level employees, it would not be enough to kick people out at this juncture, right?

The main creators of the movie at the table, from the editor to the actors, nodded one after another, only Huang Zhengmin still insisted: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, this is still understandable...... From a logical point of view, it was the tyrannical and perverted second generation of the chaebol who broke the leg, and when the chairman of the chaebol ordered all the employees involved to be fired, he didn't know what his son had done, and the second generation of the chaebol himself did not dare to disobey his father, which makes sense; and from the color of the whole movie, this also further shows the arrogance of the chaebol, after all, it is tangential to the theme; and the fact that the witness was fired because of his injury is in stark contrast to the cause of the main case, and the reason why the truck driver came to protest was because he was fired at will, which is very black humorSo, I think from an artistic point of view, it's okay to accept this bluntness. ”

"That's just as well. Jin Zhongming, who was lying on the table with one hand supporting his head, bowed slightly. "It's a comic, and it's about this sense of absurdity that can be followed, although some can't help the so-called reasonable direction, but the style does seem more pertinent...... As a trade-off, I agree with the absurd black humor in the original comics. ”

"Really?!" Huang Zhengmin was probably besieged by others for a long time, and finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time. "When we told Mr. Zhu, the comic author, about this, he said the same thing. ”

"In that case, that's fine. Liu Chengguan frowned slightly. "After all, the original author and your two protagonists agree with this plot setting, but there is another point that I can't give in so casually. ”

"What's the second point?" Kim Jong Ming asked seriously, he really forgot, after all, he had drunk a little too much with Sunny before.

"The second point is the shift in the position of the boss. Liu Haizhen reminded helplessly.

"That's right. Liu Chengguan answered seriously. "Let's be fair, the boss of the criminal police team was still accepting disguised bribes from chaebol companies to sponsor his daughter's concert. How can such a person be moved to change his position because of the injury of a subordinate, and then endorse the protagonist's actions?

"That's just as well. Jin Zhongming nodded noncommittally. "It's a bit blunt...... What did Teacher Zhu say?"

Mr. Zhu was also a little hesitant about this, but Chengguan and the screenwriters were very dissatisfied, so they seemed to be ready to give in. Huang Zhengmin interjected again. "From the perspective of my character, I always feel that if I change it randomly, something will be wrong. ”

"That ......" Jin Zhongming pressed the pocket of his suit vest and interrupted the other party slightly. "The director should have a rough idea of adaptation when he said this, right?"

"I have a brilliant design that promises to make the turn seem natural, realistic and logical. Liu Chengguan saw that Jin Zhongming never made a statement this time, and his mood rose significantly. "Zhong Ming, have you noticed that the second generation of the chaebol you played in the movie is the concubine born to a mistress, in fact, it has not been played very well. Although the whole article implies that his perverted and tyrannical personality is caused by the discrimination of the whole family in his childhood, in fact, his brother and sister only showed their faces once, and they flashed and died without a problem......"

"The director wants to make an article from here?" Kim Jong-ming heard a little taste.

"That's right. Liu Chengwan became more and more energetic the more he spoke. "After all, we are all adults, don't we understand what this society is like? It is impossible for a person in a higher position in the police system to change his stance for the sake of a sense of justice from a small policeman, not to mention that he has accepted bribes from the second generation of the chaebol, and the future of his daughter is still in the hands of others! This is not to say that the change is impossible, but that only a person of higher rank can be qualified to push him to change his position......

At this point, Huang Zhengmin, who was listening carefully, and Jin Zhongming, who was a little drunk and hazy, frowned in unison. Of course, Yoo Seung-wan, who is on the rise, didn't notice this, and he continued to talk about his opinions and wonderful original patches.

"So, what I mean is that the immediate boss of the criminal police team suddenly jumped back in the later stage, ostensibly because of the efforts of his subordinates, but in fact because the elder brother and sister of the second generation of the chaebol secretly took action! Why? Because the brothers and sisters of the second generation of the chaebol have that motive and that strength. What's more, this original premise doesn't deviate from the theme of the comics, but instead increases the ridicule of the Korean chaebol...... What does Zhong Ming think?"

"Wonderful setting. Jin Zhongming replied without hesitation, this is what he said in his heart. "It's very reasonable, it's very logical, and it's very realistic. ”

Liu Chengwan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but Huang Zhengmin was a little helpless - if Kim Jong-ming also agreed with this change, then his personal objection would be meaningless.

In fact, unlike the previous point of controversy, in this adaptation, although he always felt that something was wrong, he never said any coherent objections. And now, even Jin Zhongming, who has the ability to make a final decision at the end, said that Liu Chengguan's adaptation is wonderful, so is he really out of line?

"Then let's change it like this?" Liu Haizhen concluded as he looked tentatively at Huang Zhengmin. Zhong Ming also recognized this original plot. ”

"That's it!" Huang Zhengmin frowned, but he was helpless.

"Wait. Jin Zhongming suddenly spoke again, causing the main creators of the crew to be stunned. "Just because I agree with the excitement of this setting doesn't mean I agree with it. Actually, I still think that the somewhat far-fetched plot in the original comics may be more appropriate. ”

There was a stagnation at the dinner table, and many people were speechless for a while...... What is more appropriate for a far-fetched plot? This sounds like a strong word, right?

"How do you say it?" In desperation, Liu Chengguan had no choice but to ask. "Anything to say?"

"Yes. Jin Zhongming replied calmly, and then took out a piece of paper from the pocket of his suit vest. "But let me take my time...... Do you know why I was angry when I came? ”

Liu Chengguan took the paper curiously, but only glanced at it and put it back like throwing a hot potato, and Liu Haizhen, who was sitting next to Jin Zhongming, squinted his eyes slightly, and immediately turned his head like a piercing eye, and the rest of the people basically had a similar reaction...... Without him, Jin Zhongming took out a tax fine!

How did it come about, do you still need to ask? However, what really catches the eye is the amount above!

In any case, in the context of Cha Eun-taek's uncle being expelled from the Blue House, the huge fine of 500 million won is a bit excessive, right?
