Chapter 0134: Guo Zairong
The storing which there is no storing!
——————
The meeting with Guo Jae-yong is scheduled for the next day, at a coffee shop very close to Mr. Yoo's new home.
When Yoo Do-fei and Park Young-hwan and Kim Sung-joon arrived leisurely, the director, who looked a little obscene, was already waiting there with an anxious face.
Guo Zairong was very anxious, he couldn't help but be in a hurry, and after coming out of Zheng Xuntuo's mansion, he found that things were much more difficult than he imagined.
The movie has actually been promoted for a certain period of time.
His script is like being labeled as HQ, and it is no wonder that Zheng Xuntuo swore so much at the beginning, with the strength of HQ, there is indeed no company that dares to take such a hot potato.
After two days of hitting a wall, he also realized the problem.
Fortunately, yesterday, two young men found him, and as if a skylight had suddenly opened in a dark room, a ray of light shot in.
"President Kim, Park Gongzi, you are here." Guo Zairong had already eliminated a lot of his arrogance, and when he saw the three people coming in at the door, he couldn't wait to stand up.
"Hello Director Guo, I'm Liu Shengxian, it's a pleasure to meet you." Liu Daofei, who was walking in front, had already taken the lead in extending his hand.
"Sage Xi, I have long admired the great name, fortunately." Guo Zairong hurriedly stretched out his hand.
For this appointed leading actor, he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, from the moment he opened the door and came in just now, it seemed that this young man was more like today's protagonist.
This is exactly what happened, and Park Young-hwan's next sentence confirmed his conjecture.
"Director Guo, you can just talk to my brother about this today, as long as he thinks it's okay, then we can invest in Liding right away." As soon as the two shook hands, Park Young-hwan said.
Kim Sung-joon also nodded without hesitation.
Looking at Guo Zairong's eager gaze projected in an instant, Liu Daofei smiled slightly, motioned for them to sit down and said, "Director Guo shouldn't have eaten yet, let's not stand like this, how about chatting while eating?" ”
Guo Zairong naturally didn't care.
After putting a cup of coffee and a few desserts in front of the waiter, he still couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Liu, I don't know if it's appropriate to call you like this, I want to ask, what are your requirements?" Can you tell us about it, and if so, I hope to be able to settle things today. ”
Liu Daofei smiled slightly: "I think so too." Actually, I only found out yesterday the news of your cooperation with my brother, he invited me to be the male lead of this movie yesterday, I was also taken aback, they talked to me a little bit about cooperation yesterday, but I don't know Director Guo's specific plans and plans, can you please tell me first. ”
Guo Zairong was stunned: "Mr. Liu still doesn't know my situation? ”
Liu Daofei laughed and said, "I naturally have some understanding of Director Guo, but I don't know much about this drama, I heard that Director Guo is mainly targeting Chinese mainland this time?" I don't know if it's true. ”
"That's right, that's what I'm aiming for." Guo Zairong nodded without hesitation: "You also know that compared to South Korea's narrow market, China is a behemoth, although it is not mature yet, but everyone knows its development prospects; My goal this time is very simple, I hope that through this film, I can take a head start over there. ”
Get ahead of the curve? I just want to be famous.
Indeed, the Korean film market is indeed too small, just like the Korean music industry, if there is no adjacent market in Japan, so many new singers every year, I am afraid that I will not even drink soup.
The Korean film market is similar, if there were no local protection clauses promulgated by the above, I am afraid that it would have been affected a long time ago, and it would not even have the ability to survive; Moreover, the market is too small to expand outward, so the big production will not dare to shoot at all, and the small production will not resist, and it will still be a dead cycle after all.
Liu Daofei said: "Can I ask, did HQ have plans with you before?" ”
Looking at Guo Zairong's slightly embarrassed expression, Liu Daofei hurriedly smiled: "If you are embarrassed, Director Guo doesn't have to answer." ”
"I'm ......!" Guo Zairong was dumbfounded for a while.
Park Young-hwan also took a sip of coffee and said, "Director Guo, I really don't understand what you are embarrassed about, you should know the estrangement between my brother and HQ, to be honest, I don't have a good impression of them; You're going to work with us this time to let them know, and you know their strength, and I can't think of any room for relaxation in you. ”
This kid is playing a white face there again, this kind of threatening words have been said, he is really speechless, is it possible that Tianshi is interested in this kind of role!
Guo Zairong's face changed, pondered for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "Actually, there is nothing that can't be said, not because of the relationship with HQ, but because I don't know much, because I only serve as an editor in this movie." ”
Oh......!
It turns out that Guo Zairong is still working hard for his position as a director, for fear that he will lose his qualification to direct this movie if he says this.
He really can't afford to ask for more power.
Liu Daofei instantly grasped the point and said: "Then can I ask, which director Zheng Xuntuo invited?" ”
Guo Zairong said apologetically: "This has always been their contact, and I don't know anymore." ”
I really don't know, maybe, that's how they were deprived of too much power, so they fell out.
Liu Daofei saw deep contempt in Park Young-hwan's eyes, and he was probably completely speechless for the director, so he also took a sip of the coffee in front of him and said: "Director Guo, in fact, we don't have many requirements today, but I have to say that there is one thing that we and HQ agree with very much."
If a film wants to achieve a good box office in Chinese mainland, a director with strong appeal is indispensable, and if you work with us, then we must choose this position of director again. ”
Guo Zairong's face darkened, and he said, "Isn't there room for maneuver in this matter?" ”
"Nope." Liu Daofei shook his head firmly and said, "I know Director Guo's thoughts, but your influence is not enough to radiate to all parts of Asia; You also know that our brother's investment this time is tens of billions, and since they asked me, the leading actor, to talk to you, I also have to consider them as well. ”
Guo Zairong sighed and nodded, "Yes, then do you have any other requirements?" ”
Liu Daofei said with a smile: "Director Guo, don't be discouraged, although we can't give you the position of director, we can give you a position of assistant director and screenwriter; After all, this movie was written by you yourself, and only you can grasp the essence of it. ”
Guo Zairong was a little surprised, and his small eyes couldn't help but pass over the three of them in confusion.
Jin Chengjun said with a smile: "Director Guo, don't be confused, in fact, if you don't bring it up, we also think about it this way; It is said that the status of our Korean screenwriters is greater than that of directors, but in fact, more people like directors, and I think Director Guo is such a person. ”
"This is not that we deliberately deprive Director Guo of his power, but for the sake of the movie, of course...... We will also give you more power! Liu Daofei said and took out a blank piece of paper from his pocket, spread it out and said with a smile: "This is the director we have listed for this movie, in this regard, I think Director Guo has more vision than us, who is more suitable for you I think you will know better than us." ”
"...... you guys?" Guo Zairong was stunned for a while.
Liu Daofei said with a smile: "Since we are cooperating, of course we are honest, just now we were just testing Director Guo's determination and sincerity; Director Guo will take a look at who is the most suitable candidate for the director. ”
Park Young-hwan and both of them laughed.
