Chapter 163: This may just be a work of art
"Who is that person?" asked some reporters who were reluctant to leave and were about to block people after the end of the show, pointing to the back of Yang Daxian who had a good opportunity.
"Yang Dae-hyun, the chief of the entertainment version of Korea Finance, is an old fritter. A colleague who knew each other complained weakly. "Why didn't I pay attention to getting a ticket?"
"The devil knows there will be so many stars!" The others were also very angry, this kind of premiere tickets were actually very easy to get, and someone sent them when they said hello, but they didn't care about it before and now they have to blow hot air outside.
"Mr. Kim Jong-ming asked me to give a little ice cream to my journalist friend and apologized again for the inadequate hospitality. Wang Zhongbing led several staff members to push the freezer and appeared outside the cinema in a timely manner.
"No wonder there are such connections!" some veteran reporters said with some emotion instead of rushing to get ice cream.
In the cinema, original personnel such as Kim Jong-myung, Ahn Sung-ki, and Lee Jun-ik are being interviewed and asked questions by the media, and hundreds of guests are sitting backstage ready to applaud at any time.
"Director Lee Jun-ik, the film feels unexpectedly fast from preparation and filming to the current release, is there any trick in this?" The first question at the premiere is to ask the person who has been contacted by the organizer to stand up and ask, and it is usually a decent question to the director.
Of course, this is because the two main actors were involved in the creation of the script, and the two of them themselves" Lee Jun-ik is a director who has just won the top prize of Baeksang and Daejong, and he is naturally not a problem for such a pediatric, and he praised it one by one from the producer to the actors to the local people in a few sentences. The following guests and reporters will naturally not be more serious. Bursts of applause rang out and fell. It fell and sounded, and the scene was very harmonious.
"Mr. An Shengji, it is said that you temporarily changed the final ending freeze-frame picture, is there such a thing, and what kind of considerations did you change it?" After interviewing several supporting actors, the press conference finally quickly came to the meat part, and a reporter couldn't help but ask directly about a part she was interested in.
"Yes, this is indeed true. And the cause comes entirely from the impulse for artistic expression. An Shengji is also an old fox in the face of reporters, and he really doesn't leak. "You see, it was like this, me"
"Mr. Kim Jong-myeong, tomorrow is the premiere of the Han River Monster, do you have any thoughts on Mr. Song Kang-ho's film? The two films have such an overlapping showtime, and" Another reporter stood up and set his sights on Kim Jong-ming, who was not very experienced.
"And it involves the dialogue of so many people, between my teacher and Song Kang-ho, between director Lee Jun-ik and director Bong Joon-ho. Isn't it?" Of course Jin Zhongming understood what the other party meant, but he didn't need the other party to say that he also wanted to take the initiative to talk about it. Otherwise, if you are eaten by the monster of the Han River, your face will not look good, so it is better to be the first to make it clear.
"That's right, do you have any prospects for the box office awards of the two films?" The reporter was particularly excited to see Kim Jong-ming so cooperative.
"Of course. Jin Zhongming nodded lightly. "I think that due to the theme and the audience's orientation, the two films will be very different in terms of box office and awards, and there will even be a crushing situation. ”
"Isn't it a little too arrogant for Mr. Kim Jong-ming to say this?" The reporters who felt that Kim Jong-ming had taken the bait became very excited, and people such as An Shengji couldn't help but look at Kim Jong-ming, the movie premiere is one thing, but it also has to face reality.
"No, I think it's Mr. Reporter's own understanding that has been deviated, and the crushing situation I'm talking about is not simply saying that our radio star can crush each other, but mutually. Jin Zhongming explained unhurriedly. "First of all, our film is actually nostalgic, not so much a drama film as an art film, so we didn't have any delusions about the box office at all, so the idea together is in the artistic expression of the film. Correspondingly, the production cycle of the Hanjiang monster is extremely long, the special effects are excellent, and the thriller is oriented to the plot, and it is during the summer vacation, and I even doubt that the number of moviegoers on the other side may exceed that of the Wang De man directed by Li Junyi next to me. ”
"Just like two years ago, Mr. An Shengji broke the record for the first time to exceed 10 million, but the next year it was surpassed by the Taiji Banner, and then the Taiji Banner was surpassed by my king's man, this kind of thing is unavoidable. Li Junyi also interjected, although he didn't think that his movie would be bad at the box office, but in order to protect Jin Zhongming, he was still willing to say a few worthless words.
"Then Mr. Kim Jong-myung's box office expectation for the Han River Monster is 12 million?" another reporter stood up, and it was difficult for him to understand Kim Jong-myung's praise of his opponent's films.
"Quite possibly. Kim Jong Ming is still calm.
"What about Radio Star?"
"It depends on how much space the opponent can leave us, but it will not be less than 2 million, at least the cost is no problem. Jin Zhongming slipped away the more he talked, and he simply ignored the eyes of An Shengji and Li Junyi next to him.
"Do you mean, then, in terms of awards, radio stars will be as successful as the Han River Monster at the box office?"
"That's right!" replied Kim Jong Ming very resolutely. "There is no need to doubt the artistry of this movie, everyone is an expert, just watch it later. ”
The subsequent questions were handled by An Shengji, and he was still a little frightened by Jin Zhongming's resolute and affirmative tone, whether it was the box office or the awards, it was a bit beyond his imagination.
Under the conditioning of An Shengji, the press conference finally ended 'successfully', and then the previous manager Wang stood up and announced that because the guests were beyond imagination, they had to be temporarily divided into two premiere halls, and all reporters and guests were invited to follow An Shengji or Jin Zhongming to different places to watch the movie.
To the surprise of the nervous Li Junyi, the momentum on Kim Jong-ming's side was no worse than that on Ahn Sung-ki's side. Not only did the young actor and Kim Jong-myung's own basic plate, that is, variety show and YG company, follow him to the new screening room, but even Bae Yong-jun and several big names followed him, and even Choi Min-sik hesitated for a moment before following Ahn Sung-ki. But it's okay, the province makes Jin Zhongming ugly, Li Junyi thought about it like this and had a lot of good feelings towards a few people led by Pei Yongjun, these seniors must have seen the situation and did it in order to take care of Jin Zhongming's emotions, well, that's right, it must be so.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the movie radio star officially opened. And at 7:01, the famous art film director Hong Sang-so recognized Kim Jong-ming's arrogance on the issue of awards, and then, the famous director covered his face helplessly, yes, he came to be a spy, he also has a proud romance film "Woman by the Sea" to be released this year, as an art director, his goal must be to win awards rather than box office, but this first film that he regarded as an opponent gave him a heavy blow.
"It's really full of color, but it's really suitable. Hong Sang-so muttered to himself in a voice that the people around him couldn't hear at all, and then his voice was drowned out by a burst of exclamations.
"Jin Zhongming is really willing to sacrifice. Yang Daxian looked at Cui Kun played by Jin Zhongming on the stage and couldn't help shouting with the audience, Jin Zhongming in the movie is just like what he said when he promoted the movie in the variety show, his face was specially fattened, but the audience didn't know that he lost weight when he went to the variety show, and thought he was talking about fun, but now it looks like he has an extra layer of flesh on his face, and the crow's feet make him obviously have an 'ugly' look, but it's also ' Insiders understand that this is the feeling that the actor gives after grasping the role.
As the film continues, Hong Sang-so has moved away from his rival identity and immersed himself in the role of a film appreciator, he pulls out his pen and writes some words on a piece of paper that reveal his feelings, just like other text reporters behind him: "This story never ends." It doesn't refer to the plot of the story, but the melody that the story leaves on our hearts. The story takes place in the past era, how many people have passed through it, and the years have left a good memory in the hearts of many people. Although the new thing is to replace the old thing, a certain year, a certain month, a person, a certain thing, a mountain, a water, a grass, a tree are all our memories, what is lost does not necessarily mean that it is old, but some are more precious. ”
"The quality of the picture is average, but the image style is outstanding, and it completely transports the viewer into the era of the time, and at the same time, the skin tones of the characters are realistic, and the colors in the picture are full. Some casual shots are very in place, and the shooting is more delicate, such as the moment when the café waitress makes the announcement, with her greeting to her mother and the description of the weather, the camera appears close-up of the rain and leaves. The raindrops dripping from the green leaves, the backs of the uncles fishing, the laundry owners squatting in front of the shops and smoking, the people shuttling through the market, the mountains and the sea in the quiet area, and the panoramic view of the city strongly express the film's own sensibility. Yang Daxian also began to write his own opinions, although he couldn't compare with Hong Sang-so, who was completely emotional, but he chose the most prominent part of the movie, which is the picture, to cut in, and after hesitating, he added another sentence. "And in these pictures, Jin Zhongming, who is holding a guitar and singing, has a certain qualification to stand side by side with An Shengji!"
In the front row, Kim Jong-myung, who was sitting with Moon Geun-young and Bae Yong-jun, was completely immersed in his role, although he had seen the finished film, but he really didn't expect that there would be such a charm after adjusting the picture more fullly, so that he was also moved by the performer, or he was simply attracted by the picture and recalled a distant nineties, but at that time he was not in South Korea, nor in the United States, but in a small city in central China.
