Chapter 292: Bullshit (2)
Seeing Guo Chengjun's reaction, Zheng Jinzhou was so sophisticated, he didn't need to be told by others at all, he took the initiative to happily propose that he was going to the bathroom.
Jin Zhongming and others naturally sent each other with a smile.
There is no need to mention the rest of the matter, as Kim Jong-ming also made a gesture, Kim Young-seok and the others also got up and left their seats together with the people opposite, and soon, there were only two people left in the private room of the high-sounding huge hotel.
"President Lee. Jin Zhongming smiled and tidied up his suit. "I have one more scene to shoot in the evening, and I was pleasantly surprised how direct and straightforward you were. ”
"I'm actually pretty straightforward. Lee Jae-hyun chuckled dryly. "It may be this temper that you have cultivated since childhood, Zhong Ming, don't be surprised. But are you sure you're going to film at night......?
"President Lee. Jin Zhongming put on a smile like the other party. "Actually, I'm an actor. If an actor doesn't go to filming, will he have to talk to anyone about business, politics, and deals?"
Lee Jae-hyun was slightly stunned: "What the hell is going on with this actor? I'll just say it bluntly, the reason why I am sitting with you today is because you ...... Actually, everything other than the actor deserves my respect and attention...... But the actor ......"
"It's not that complicated, specifically, I choose to take a position closer to this profession when there is a conflict of identity. Jin Zhongming continued to say with a smile. "Because it's my basic identity,"
"Can you give me an example?" asked Lee Jae-hyun, puzzled.
"It's like the conversation I had with Chairman Choi before. Jin Zhongming spread his hands. "Of course, the assets overseas are very heavy, but if I can exchange my prestige in the Korean entertainment industry, I don't care much. ”
Lee Jae-hyun was a little incomprehensible: "I thought that incident was that you wanted to transfer assets to ......"
"Then I'll use a more presumptuous example. Jin Zhongming became serious.
"Please. Lee Jae-hyun stretched out his hand to signal.
"Suppose. The documents sent that time contained video files or direct evidence. Jin Zhongming stared at the other party seriously and said. "I will not hesitate to aim for you to be punished enough, Chairman Lee. Maybe in two years, you'll be in prison and I'll have a part of my power behind......"
Lee Jae-hyun sneered: "As far as I know. If there were such an example, the vast majority of these female artists would be voluntary, because those who are extremely successful will not really risk going to jail......"
"That's why I'm an actor. Jin Zhongming spread his hands again. "I don't care if she is voluntary or not, and no matter how much it costs, I will choose the latter between the identity of a businessman and the identity of the vice president of the Korean Artists Rights Mutual Aid Committee, thinking that the latter is closer to the identity of an actor......"
"I don't understand it yet!" Lee Jae-hyun was visibly angry, he had never had a good temper.
"Then another example!" Jin Zhongming greeted him fearlessly. "Professor Ahn Cheol-so, you should know each other, right?"
"How can you not know each other?" Lee Jae-hyun sneered. "The one who raises hope and raises flowers. You...... ...... you?"
Jin Zhongming lowered his head and smiled: "Professor Ahn Cheol-so has the dual identity of a businessman and a university professor, but if he had to choose between the two, he would not hesitate to abandon the identity of a businessman who brought him huge wealth...... Is he stupid? And lawyer Park Won-soon......"
"Needless to say. Lee Jae-hyun really understood: "Do you mean that being an actor is your path? No matter where the target is, an actor is your way, right? It's like Ahn Cheol-so will never abandon his status as a professor, just like Park Won-soon insists on claiming to be a human rights lawyer...... No wonder you can't find you financially ...... I get it. ”
"It's great that you can understand. Jin Zhongming got up and poured a glass of wine for the other party in a low posture. "I'm just a young man, and as long as I can stick to my own path, I'm willing to be friends with anyone, and I'm more willing to respect a figure like Chairman Lee...... I know that in Korea, being an actor is inseparable from CJ. So, please!"
Lee Jae-hyun turned his anger into joy: "Zhong Ming." I'm 50 years old this year, and I understand the pros and cons and trade-offs, not to mention anything else, we have nearly 100 billion gross income from this cooperation with "Haeundae", right......? Ha...... So, in short, we will have to cooperate more in the future. Don't you want to be a serious 'artist' in the entertainment industry? If you need to speak up in the future, I will do my best, no matter what, we CJ still have a bit of a foundation and thin face in this circle. ”
After that, Lee Jae-hyun raised his head and drank it all!
Jin Zhongming smiled slightly, but he also smiled coldly in his heart.
Needless to say, when the others came back, they saw the two of them, and everyone naturally followed the interest, and the verbal exchange went from the movie to the media, and from the media to the political jokes, in short, the atmosphere was really good.
However, at a little more than ten o'clock in the evening, when Jin Zhongming sat in his half-used modern car, his face became ugly, even if he was vain, even if he was acting on the spot, even if the person hiding the knife in his smile was himself, he was still a little aggrieved! No way, he was already in the drama very deeply, full of youth, love, It was really difficult for him to be pulled back to this occasion for a while, so it was so direct, but fortunately, the other party's typical second ancestor had a very direct temper, so the effect was not bad.
"I wish I could get back to the movies. Jin Zhongming said to Zhang Minya beside him. "This kind of entertainment is really tiring, at least there is no such thing in the film field!"
So, the next day the slap in the face came.
Jin Zhongming, who was filming on the set, ushered in a long-lost guest, his name is Chen Kexin, and two colleagues from Xiangjiang and China came together.
Kim Jong-ming didn't know why at all. But everyone went straight to the set at Hanyang University. Could he still not entertain Chen Kexin's incense there.
But. Jin Zhongming was not unconcerned, he grabbed Su Xiaoya: "Go and find out what director Chen Kexin is doing and what problems he encounters." Xiangjiang films will watch the mainland report, and the mainland film will watch the Xiangjiang report, and the reports on both sides of the co-production will pay attention to it, and call me directly after knowing the situation. ”
"Little Kim. Chen Kexin greeted the waists of the two people around him and introduced. "The one on the left is director Chen Desen, and the one on the right is Mr. Yu Dong of Bona Films. In short, I'm bothering you with filming!"
"Fortunately!" Jin Zhongming was still puzzled.
The three of them sat down very casually on the set. Immediately, Jin Zhongming asked tentatively.
"Little Kim. Chen Kexin sighed. "I'm desperate!"
Jin Zhongming was even more confused.
"I heard that in the past two years, you have been a director and a producer, and you have made money from all the movies you have invested in, did you make a net profit of 20 billion won from "Haeundae" just now?" Chen Kexin did not hide from the other party, and soon he directly said his intentions. "And when I heard the news yesterday, the film of the three of us was at the most difficult time, so ...... Please be sure to help...... We've got 95 percent of this movie...... I really can't stop, and I can't afford to stop. ”
Jin Zhongming immediately looked at Yu Dong, who was designated as an investor as soon as he heard the introduction, and Bona Pictures seemed to be the top film distribution company in China. 95% of the time, why can't you grit your teeth and get through? But that Yu Dong turned pale in the face of Jin Zhongming's inquiring gaze and became very serious. This made Jin Zhongming even more confused.
"That. Mr. Kim Jong-myeong, right?" asked the director, named Chen Desen, slightly embarrassed. "It's presumptuous, but we really can't hold on now, if you can, please watch our movie, and I'll be grateful......
"What are you three filming?" Kim Jong-ming decided to be more simply. "Why did you suddenly decide to find someone else at this point? I mean, how did you get to this job? 95% of the time, isn't it? And yesterday I heard the news that I had the funds in hand, and today I ...... them? You three understand what I mean?"
"Let's take a look at the materials we brought first?" Chen Kexin handed over a large folder from the backpack behind him.
Jin Zhongming took it puzzled, and as soon as he opened it, all kinds of photos and text materials were readily available, which was the detailed information of the movie "October Siege", and at first glance, he could see that the investment in this movie was absolutely not small, because there was a complete set reconstruction, and he knew all the stars in it, this is a typical commercial blockbuster! And this Chen Desen is the director, Chen Kexin is the producer, and Yu Dong is naturally the owner of the distribution company.
"Don't look at it!" Jin Zhongming put down the folder. "I can probably guess what's going on in this movie, just tell me what's going on! Director Chen, the two of us have incense, if it's really just a little bit away, I'll make it up for you......"
Yu Dong, who had always had a cold face, finally changed his face slightly.
"That's really...... Thank you so much. Chen Kexin sighed. "Let me say it bluntly, maybe this movie is inherently hard, since the birth of the script, director Chen Desen has been working on it for ten years......"
Chen Kexin's narrative is sincere and the plot is moving, there are investors who commit suicide, there are hundreds of requests that should not be answered, there are those who are besieged by the local snake after the theater is built, and the director has an emotional breakdown halfway...... Well, it's Mr. Anderson Chan.
Anyway, when you count these negative things into money, it's really frustrating. It was already terrifying to set up a stage and invite so many stars, but all kinds of accidents that happened in the middle made the investor, Mr. Wei Dong, really unbearable. For example, during that time, when the head snake besieged the crew, he lost a net of 70,000 yuan a day! Chen Desen broke down emotionally and ran back to Xiangjiang to hide in a hotel, many people thought he committed suicide, and he lost 70,000 yuan a day...... Well, anyway, Yu Dong has already added all kinds of funds to it again and again, and now, he doesn't want to spend any more money!
However, Jin Zhongming, who has already served as the producer of two films and the investor of one film, is actually a little skeptical of Chen Kexin's words, because he heard something inappropriate. Some things are not 70,000 yuan if you say 70,000, no matter what, as a producer, you have to live within your means with investors...... Moreover, more importantly, he also knows that Chen Kexin is actually very calculating. The so-called advantages are disadvantages, and when Chen Kexin has economic interests in opposition with other people, his characteristics always seem to be a little disgusting.
Su Xiaoya's phone called, and she proved Jin Zhongming's conjecture, many newspapers on the other side of Xiangjiang bluntly said that Chen Kexin was cheating people, or bluntly said that Chen Kexin was pinching this movie to pit people in Yudong, and some newspapers simply said that this was a typical example of Chen Kexin treating the mainland as a fool and a lot of money......
In short, that's it, neither the media nor Chen Kexin's words can be fully believed, but on the whole, coupled with Yu Dong's expression in front of him, Chen Kexin does seem to be a little suspicious of slaughtering himself as a wronged leader, or trying to put pressure on Yu Dong with himself.
However, it doesn't matter, Kim Jong Ming has made up his mind.
"Director Chen. Jin Zhongming stretched out his hand to stop the other party's continued narration. "I'm also filming, my own company, the scripts I bought, my own director, and my own starring, it's really, really tiring. In this way, you name the number, and I will give it to you directly within one billion won!"
One billion won, millions of soft sister coins, big or small, not necessarily much for this "October Siege" with an investment of 100 million and a half, but Kim Jong Ming gave it to Chen Kexin without blinking, which is really ...... Therefore, the fat man named Yu Dong was obviously taken aback. Correspondingly, Chen Kexin was overjoyed, but that Chen Desen was a little flustered, which further verified Jin Zhongming's idea, the other party seemed to just want to use himself to put pressure on Yu Dong at the beginning, which made Jin Zhongming very unhappy!
"Director Chen!" Jin Zhongming sighed, ending Chen Kexin's excitement. "You can transfer money when you come to my company, but don't dislike it if you say a word. ”
The three people on the opposite side looked at Jin Zhongming in unison.
"My money today is not an investment!" Jin Zhongming said calmly. "I've been making movies since I was 11 years old, and it's very clear about what it's like on your side...... I think you can probably know by my accent that I'm not blind, so how could I invest in a movie just because of such words and such things?"
"Then what is this?" Yu Dong heard a little taste.
"It's for the sake of Director Chen's face. Jin Zhongming replied calmly. "I don't ask about the Tao here, I don't care, I just know that the first movie I went to the mainland was when Director Chen came to find me, I often go on the Internet over there, and I know that my popularity there is still limited to that movie, so I'm very grateful, that's how the money came from. ”
Chen Kexin's face was embarrassed, Chen Desen stopped talking, and Yu Dong looked at this 'trust' he thought before with interest.
"Anyway, let's go back to the three of them. Jin Zhongming continued. "If someone can still remember my righteousness after I go back, then next time there is any movie, please be sure to come to me in a state where it is still 0%, let's watch it seriously and study it carefully. Okay, it's really busy, so I won't send it!"
