The next day, Wang Zijun bought one and got one free, and sent a total of two Korean songs to Lu Cangjian. Wang Zijun was afraid that Lu Cangjian would not be able to accept the dance music that was too strong, so he deliberately copied a soft rock and a lyrical song.

After listening to Wang Zijun singing, Lu Cangjian was very satisfied with the melody, but he felt that the lyrics were too much love and love, and a little more economic construction should be added, so that it was more in line with Mr. President's spleen and stomach.

As a result, the lyrics of these two songs were changed by him to praise the achievements of South Korea's new countryside and look forward to the glorious future of South Korea's heavy industry development.

Wang Zijun saw that he had changed it and took it over to take a look, and immediately ...... Embarrassment!

After the change, Lu Cangjian asked Wang Zijun to sing it again. Wang Zijun sang hard, it felt like singing heavy metal, holding a red treasure book in his hand, and dancing a loyal word dance with his feet.

"Good, great!" Lu Cangjian clapped his hands and said, "Mr. Wang is really talented, he wrote two beautiful Korean songs in one night." ”

"No," Wang Zijun didn't want people to know that these two terrifying songs were written by himself, shame! He shook his finger and said, "Minister Lu, I don't know Korean. You see, we've been talking in English. So, you wrote these two songs, and you are the father of modern Korean songs. ”

"Ah, hahaha......" Lu Cangjian and Wang Zijun laughed tacitly.

Wang Zijun quickly sent all three works for approval, and soon "Good Morning Taipei" passed the review.

Wang's company has no roots here, and can only contact theaters across South Korea through the Ministry of Culture. Fortunately, Lu Cangjian got the benefits of Wang Zijun, and after a few slips were approved, Wang Zijun took a string of phone numbers to contact theaters in various places.

It's just that there was a disagreement when talking about the sharing, and the Korean authorities directly wanted to extract 50% of the box office, and the rest was given to Wang Zijun and the theater.

Wang Zijun was angry at that time, and called Lu Cangjian directly and asked him to look at it, not to cross the river and tear down the bridge like this!

Lu Cangjian was short of manpower, and he was afraid that Wang Zijun would talk nonsense, so in the end, the commission was lowered to 30%, which was on par with the Kuomintang authorities in Taiwan. In Lu Cangjian's opinion, what is this money? He is gathering domestic music creators and record company owners to promote Korean music.

It wasn't until a week later, when Wang Zijun and the others all left Seoul, that Bai Muyang personally brought people over to expand the territory. established a film and television promotion company with only a shell in Seoul, left a person in charge here, recruited a few local Chinese as employees, and then sent the film to the Korean Broadcasting Corporation to do Korean dubbing.

After the dubbing was done, half a month passed before it was finally released in more than 50 theaters in South Korea (yes, it is more than 50 of the cheaters, which is less than the number of theaters in Taipei. First, there are not many screens in South Korea, and secondly, Lu Cangjian is afraid that something will happen, so he always keeps his hand).

For this test release, Wang Zijun and Bai Muyang didn't have much hope, after all, it was the first year, and there were few screens. Therefore, I didn't put much effort into publicity, just put up posters at the door of the cinema.

At the beginning, there were more Chinese people who went to the cinema to watch this film, and they also came in to watch it because they knew that it was a Chinese film.

After all, there are not many local Chinese, so the poor 50 screens are still dissatisfied. Lu Cangjian laughed after hearing the news, his great plan for music localization reform is about to be implemented, and he will be the cultural hero of the Korean nation in this Korean society, which has been made smoky by European and American music.

However, this situation lasted only two or three days, followed by a volcanic eruption.

…… Han Jae-seok, a singer from a small county town in Cheongju, heard rock music for the first time when he was 17 years old and immediately fell in love with this soul-stirring thing.

Han Jae-seok relied on the money earned from part-time work and theft to buy a guitar, and later sneaked into the house of a wealthy local man, stole a large box of pirated English records, and practiced listening to the record player every day.

Just the year before last, Han Jae-seok borrowed money from Cheongju to Seoul to participate in the All-Korea Rock Music Singing Contest and won sixth place. Although he didn't get any material rewards, he showed his face.

Han Jae-seok, who saw the prosperity of Seoul, stayed, and made money by singing in nightclubs, and he became a little famous in Seoul, and even made a little money by releasing records. But just this year, the political axe actually introduced a ban on restricting rock 'n' roll!

This ban cut off most of Han Jae-seok's sources of income at once, knocked him back to his original form, and he could only live by eating his old capital.

"Brother Zai Xi, can you accompany me to the movies tonight?" A sweet-looking, student-dressed girl pulled his clothes and said coquettishly.

This is his girlfriend Hong Meizhu, whose father is a university professor, in a nightclub. If he can marry Mi-joo, he can get out of his current bad situation. But unless Meizhu's professor's father has Alzheimer's, this kind of thing will never happen.

"Don't bother me." Han Jae-seok shook off the hand that was pulling his sleeve.

"Let's go." Hong Meizhu smiled mysteriously and said, "I heard my classmates say that Jumbo Cinema is showing a Chinese film, and there are a lot of original rock songs from Taiwan." ”

"Original songs?" Han Jae-seok's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Hong Meizhu said: "Yes, I heard that the movie won an award at the film festival, and many people said it was good. ”

Regarding what happened at the festival, many of the people who attended the awards ceremony came back, most of them were warned, and all of them were silent. Of course, there were also people who leaked their mouths, but they were quickly found by agent Shunto and obtained a bullet and 100,000 won of political axe condolences. However, only one of the two prizes could be chosen, and everyone chose the latter.

There are all kinds of rumors and rumors in the world, but now that almost a month has passed, and law and order in Seoul has gradually been restored.

Han Jae-seok and his girlfriend came to the cinema with great anticipation, but saw a queue of at least a kilometer in front of the theater.

"They're all here to buy movie tickets?" Han Jae-seok asked.

Hong Meizhu said with a strange face: "Yes, it should be." ”

However, on the fourth and fifth days of the release of "Good Morning Taipei" in South Korea, all 50 movie theaters around the country were suddenly full, and it was not an ordinary full, and the longest ticket buying queue reached 1.5 kilometers.

It is said that at this time, South Korea's domestic films are not mature at all, whether in terms of techniques or concepts, they are far behind Hong Kong and Taiwan, and they are far from the Philippines. In the early years, they watched films brought by the Americans, but because they were original English dialogues and there were no translated subtitles, only a few Korean elites could enjoy them.

In recent years, with the withdrawal of a large number of US troops and their return to China, it is difficult for Koreans to enjoy even American movies that they can't understand, and the movies they produce are very rough, and everyone is itching.

"Good Morning Taipei" has not undergone any publicity, but it has been relayed by people who have seen the movie, and the number of moviegoers has increased geometrically. Correspondingly, the screens released in Korea are still only a pitiful fifty yuan! As a result, there was a grand scene of a long queue of more than a kilometer at the entrance of the movie theater.

Movie tickets are only 500 won, and now a bowl of ramen in Seoul costs 50 to 60 won, and the increasingly wealthy South Koreans say they can still afford to watch movies.

Most of the people who watch the movie are young people under the age of 30, because the rock ban and curfew have long suffocated them, and now a movie has both a good plot and many original songs, which can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

After Bai Muyang learned the news, he immediately asked for more theaters, but he has not been able to get approval from the authorities. The 50 movie theaters also wanted to make money, so they had no choice but to start operating in the morning and continue to show until the evening, performing six times a day, all of which screened "Good Morning Taipei".

For a time, a "Taiwan" wind blew in the whole of South Korea. Just like some people in later generations who watched "Dae Jang Geum" and bought hanbok everywhere but couldn't buy it, and finally could only buy a maternity dress, in the last month of 1972, Korean young people began to imitate Taiwan in their clothes and lives.

The redubbed movie, although the dialogue is in Korean, and even the names of the heroes and heroines have been changed to Korean, but the songs sung in it are in Chinese. Soon, several Chinese songs in the movie became popular, and some singers in underground nightclubs also had to sing Chinese songs to cater to Korean fans.

At this time, Minister Lu's music reform plan was still under careful discussion by a group of experts and scholars. Before the reform plan was discussed, they instead discussed whether to ban "Good Morning Taipei" because the film caused many school students to skip class and steal their family's money to go to the movie.

When Wang Zijun received Bai Muyang's report, he was surprised but also happy: 50 screens, six shows a day, and the box office in a month actually exceeded 40 million won, which was equivalent to four or five million Taiwan dollars at that time.

It seems that Korean movie fans are hungry!

However, a month later, the South Korean Ministry of Culture finally took action, although it did not ban the broadcast, but stipulated that each theater could only show "Good Morning Taipei" once, and the time must be after 7 p.m.

At this moment, the interests of Zizi Cinema and Wang Zijun have shrunk rapidly, but a service party called the Scalper Party has been born in South Korea.

…… In the middle of the vast sea, a small steamer is moving forward against the wind, rain and waves.

In the bilge of the steamer, many people began to vomit from suffocation and shaking, which made the place where they had eaten and drunk for several days even more foul.

The head of the snake touched his shiny scalp, walked around the bottom cabin, pointed to the man lying on one foot, and said to his subordinates: "That man is dead, throw him into the sea, and there is no contagion." ”

"Yes, Boss." The two men walked over as if nothing had happened, as if they were the staff of the funeral home, and carrying the corpse was commonplace.

"Stop!" Just as they were about to move the man, a man next to the corpse suddenly spoke.

The head of the snake said with an unhappy face: "Boy, if you hadn't given you a lot of money that day, Lao Tzu wouldn't have let this half-dead man get on the boat." Now that the man is dead, do you still want him to rot here? Everyone said, isn't this the truth? ”

"Yes, everyone is dead, and it stinks if you put it again."

"Throw it away."

"Don't have a contagious disease that kills a boatload of people."

“……”

Other smugglers denounced.

"I promised to take him back to his roots." The man guarding the corpse raised his hand, and the bills fell like snowflakes. Whether it is the smuggler's subordinates or the stowaways next to him, they all go up and rob it.

When the man saw that the head of the snake did not speak, he spilled another handful of money and said, "Is it enough?" ”

The snake head thought about it, it was freezing this day, and a corpse would not rot for more than ten days, so he would take it with him. The tongue is afraid that the dead will be sick, so he asks his subordinates to collect the money and not come down in person.

A few days later, the small steamer stopped off the coast of Hong Kong, and in the faint moonlight, the stowaways on board sped onto the beach.
