The first feasible solution was Jang Eun-hyuk, who approached the problem from the perspective of a Korean cinematographer who has been in the industry for decades.

"What I mean is very simple, you can solve this problem in terms of light. Jang Eun-hyuk replied, pointing to the comics. "First of all, almost all the scenes in this manga appear in the early hours of the morning and late afternoon, which has something to do with the professions of the four main characters. Male No. 1 is Jin Wanshi, who delivers milk every morning, and Male No. 2 is a parking lot administrator who goes to work early in the morning and gets off work at night, which is destined to stay in this time period of blurred light. ”

"I see what you mean. Jin Zhongming reacted immediately. "For the seasonal characterization of things, we can completely blur it!"

"That's right. Jang Eun-hyuk nodded. And in fact, the theme of this film lies in this, the empty parking lot, the vague imprint of the outside world, although the author's original intention is to tell everyone that the elderly are far from the real society, and there is no such imprint of modern society in their lives, but since this theme has been introduced into the whole work, why can't we use this to blur the corresponding seasonal representations? ”

"yes. Someone agreed. "If you do this, the only thing that really needs to be processed on a large scale is the heavy snow scene, but for a movie, it is very common and easy to have a snow scene in the summer, I have participated in the filming, and artificial snow is also very cheap. ”

"In fact, the elderly don't need to perform at all in the early morning and night of this weather, they will feel very cold," Jang Eun-hyuk's suggestion makes perfect sense. So it starts with the time period of the movie scene. The discussion unfolded quickly.

But. Jin Zhongming still frowned.

No one is stupid, and soon, the discussion disappeared again with Jin Zhongming's constricted eyebrows.

"Zhong Ming, what do you think?" others didn't dare to ask, of course Zhang Enhe dared to ask.

"Blurring the seasonal features in the distance is a must. After thinking about it for a while, Kim Jong-ming first affirmed Jang Eun-hyuk's opinion, but he did have his own ideas. "But the details must be respected! Because the main reason for the success of this manga is its warmth and brightness, even if the distance and corners are blurred, the surroundings of the four protagonists must be clear enough! In fact, if I hadn't had this idea from the beginning, I wouldn't have consulted with you specifically. After all, there are many examples of filming winter scenes in summer, a pile of artificial snow is scattered, and the heat synthesized by CG technology is a fight. But this is not what I want. What kind of effect do I want? I want to be able to see both the air coming out of the early morning street lamp and the water dripping from the ice skates under the eaves as they melt under the street lamp. ”

Everyone was silent again, and if you want this level of detail and not CG, what else can you do? Is it really going to shoot in Australia?

"You can use a refrigerator!" Suddenly, Kim Young-suk, who was from a drama troupe on Daehak-ro, raised his hand and offered an opinion. "The oversized chiller, the kind used in containers, we can put it right near the main scene. In fact, some repertory troupes will put this refrigerator under the stage for realism when imitating winter scenes. ”

"But what about the noise?" said a man with experience in film editing, raising his hand. "The biggest difference between a drama and a movie is the technical processing, when the drama is performed, the sound of the refrigerator cannot cover the sound of the air conditioner in the theater. However, if it is put into a movie or even a TV series, it will seriously affect the soundtrack. As far as I know, it was because of this that Representative Kim Jong-ming was filming "Coffee Prince No. 1 Shop" at that time. The crew in the big summer did not turn on the air conditioner once. ”

Kim Jong-ming frowned again, do you really have to compromise with CG today? But if you want to succeed with such a theme and such a movie, you must be as real as your first work "Love, Go Home", otherwise what will you do to impress the audience?

"You can wait until it's time to shoot and then turn off the refrigeration. Kim Young-suk's answer was so simple and so simple that for a moment no one could figure out what he meant.

"Who will open it, and who will turn it off?" Compared with others, Jin Zhongming was the first to react, in fact, he was already excited in his heart, because the other party's plan was very operable. Well, it's just a bit of a hassle. This requires careful observation and adjustment to ensure that the chiller works just right in the early morning, not too cold or too hot, but just right.

"I can!" replied Kim Young-seok as he continued to raise his hand. "I'm going to operate the chiller in the container, and I'm going to make sure it's the best it can be chilled before shooting, and then we can turn it off or even haul it away when it's time to shoot. ”

"Then that's easy!" Jin Zhongming snapped and closed the small notebook in his hand. "Your name is Kim Young-suk?"

"Yes, delegates!" Kim Young-seok nodded.

"Then I'll leave this matter to you, no problem, right?" Jin Zhongming asked, looking at the other party.

"Please rest assured!" Kim Young-seok replied sharply as he stood up.

"Okay, after the meeting, I will ask Sister Jingyi to hand you a copy of the script I adapted, and help me design the scene and props. Jin Zhongming nodded at the other party with a slight smile, causing a group of people in the conference room to regret it in their hearts, the position of field recorder is always the best position to go to the director's path, this Kim Yingshuo, who was born in the university road, obviously successfully passed the second interview of the company's representative!

Without further ado, when Kim Young-suk, a former drama actor, stepped forward to take on the most difficult problem, Kim Jong-ming immediately threw himself into the next important link, that is, the actor's problem. Well, that's the way he is, he doesn't procrastinate unless he has a plan in place.

But the issue of actors in this movie doesn't seem to need to be discussed at all, because the subject matter is too special, the twilight love of seventy or eighty-year-old people, how many outstanding actors of this age are there in Korea?

"Senior Li Dehua unconditionally removed!" that night. A small-scale meeting was held in Kim Jong-ming's office. This time it was Kim Jong-myung, Jang Eun-hyuk, the original author Jiang Cao, Kim Young-seok, who had just been recognized, and Ahn Sung-ki, who was directly pulled over by Kim Jong-ming. At the beginning of the meeting, Jin Zhongming first crossed out the name of a famous senior.

"Yes, a hundred of Andy Li's predecessors are not suitable. Jiang Cao nodded, he really couldn't imagine how Andy Lee, who was full of vitality, could play a random old man who was dying, no matter how good his acting skills were.

"How many others are there?" An Shengji brought a pair of black-rimmed glasses and sat down on Jin Zhongming's chair. "Didn't you say you have to be at least a few years older than me, how many actors are there?"

"I don't say how much older than you. Jin Zhongming explained in his arms. "Originally, I thought it would be okay to be older than you, so I told Sister Minya to ask her to help me find all the predecessors from forty generations ago, but now that I think about it, it's still wrong, we have to be loyal to the original work. Let's just choose 30 generations!"

"What does 30 mean?" An Shengji asked in surprise. "I have never bowed to anyone since I was born in 52 years. Are there any actors of this age in Korea?"

"It's really there!" After a long time, Jang Eun-hyuk opened his mouth to break the silence, in fact, he already knew who Kim Jong-ming liked. "Senior Lee Soon-jae was born in '34 and is 75 years old this year; Senior Shin Koo was born in 36 and is 73 years old this year; Senior Song Jae-ho was born in 39 and is 70 years old this year. Zhong Ming's meaning was obvious, he had taken a fancy to two of the three. ”

An Shengji was silent, and after the other party said this, he realized that he felt that he still had a day as a junior in this circle!

"What about the heroine?" Jiang Cao thought for a while and acquiesced to Jin Zhongming's idea, if these three were to play two of them. He also admits that he can't act well, and it can't be better if he has changed someone else.

"The female number one was born at least 45 years ago. Jin Zhongming bluntly gave a hard indicator.

"As far as I know, actresses are not the same as male actors. There may be two male actors of this age, but there really are no more than two female actors. An Shengji smiled very affirmatively this time. "Especially those who have film experience, there are not many people who are older than me, at least I haven't encountered them. ”

Jin Zhongming was silent, it was his teacher who really couldn't take the initiative to slap his face.

Sure enough, in the end, Jang Eun-hyuk, who has known Ahn Sung-gi for many years, spoke: "Actually, Kim Hye-ja's predecessors and Yin Xiujing's predecessors are very suitable, Kim Hye-ja's predecessors are 41 years old, and Yin Xiujing's predecessors were born in 44 years." ”

An Shengji: ""

"Senior Yin Xiujing, senior Kim Hye-ja already has an appointment. Kim Jong-ming thought for a while and vetoed Kim Hye-ja's candidate. "This is the one I love the most. ”

"Yin Xiujing's predecessor is 44 years old?" An Shengji finally reacted. "Or my film lineage?"

"That's right. Jin Zhongming reluctantly agreed, and then wisely diverted the topic. "Regarding the female number two, the Alzheimer's patient, the age limit can be relaxed a little bit, but I mean at least a little older than you, the teacher. ”

An Shengji will not speak again this time, and he feels that the entire casting meeting that he was pulled over by his student this time has caused a great psychological impact on him.

"But how do you say that?" replied Jang Eun-hyuk, embarrassed. "Fools and madmen have always been the most testing of people's acting skills, is there a powerful actress of this age?"

"Yes!" said this time with ginger grass. "My character is based on her image, and in fact the whole comic was inspired by one of her films. At that time, after watching that movie, it was like creating a comic that reflected the lives of the elderly, of course, at that time, I didn't think about twilight love, which was the outline of the story that was slowly sketched later. ”

"Which movie?" asked Ahn Sung-ki, calming down.

"Senior, I'm talking about "Mapo Island"!" Jiang Cao replied respectfully.

"Senior Kim so-mei!" Kim Jong-ming rubbed his face. "This senior is too suitable, but his temper is too stinky. ”

With that, Jin Zhongming turned his head and walked to the door of the office.

"What are you going to do?" asked An Shengji in surprise.

"There were only five candidates for the four leading roles, so I naturally had to kneel down and beg these grandfathers and grandmothers to agree to my invitation to play a role in the movie. Jin Zhongming turned his head blankly and replied. "Is there any other suitable candidate in South Korea?"

The audience was silent, just watched Jin Zhongming leave. (To be continued.) )
