Former South Korean President Kim Yong-sam famously said: "If Disney's annual turnover is on par with the global computer giant IBM, then why not go all out to develop the film and television industry?" ”

In recent years, the South Korean government has vigorously developed the cultural industry, especially the relaxation of policies for the film and television industry. After the 1997 financial crisis, the position of chaebol groups like Samsung in the national economy gradually declined, and the government, in order to ensure the level of industrialization and international competitiveness, gave filmmakers more creative freedom than ever before.

And what Li Xiaole has to do now is to apply for a license for a legal production company. South Korea is not different from the mainland, everything must be done in accordance with the procedure so that there will be no trouble, as long as the process is followed, the application for a business license in South Korea is much faster than that in the mainland, it can be done within a week, and according to the new film and television law, film production can be tax-free, and the tax on TV is much lower than that of other industries, in a word, he is catching up with the good times.

The Jiangnan Industrial and Commercial Office was crowded, passing through several men who were arguing with the staff on the table (remember daomengren for a second to see the fastest update), and the aunt who was chattering anxiously waiting, Li Xiaole received a waiting number from the reception staff who sent the number, and waited for about 1 hour before calling the number 438 in his hand.

Ha Ji Won finally guessed what Li Xiaole wanted to do, and secretly smacked his tongue, it seems that what this guy said in the morning is really not a joke...... Can I register a company with just two students? Ha Ji Won felt a little uncertain in his heart.

Li Xiaole came to the counter and handed over his and Ha Zhiyuan's documents, the twenty-something civil servant in a suit looked a little impatient because of the repetitive high-intensity work, and after scanning the documents, he asked without raising his head: "What kind of business do you handle?" ”

"I want to apply for a license to produce film and television and entertainment intermediaries."

Listening to the not very authentic Korean, the young civil servant looked up at Li Xiaole, and then carefully checked the information on the certificate, and was slightly surprised by Li Xiaole's age and nationality.

According to South Korean law, as long as South Korea over the age of 19 or foreigners living in South Korea can apply for a business license for the cultural industry, but there are not many people under the age of 40 who apply for this kind of business license, let alone such a hairy boy.

The young civil servant hummed and was about to hand out the form for Li Xiaole to fill out, but was stopped by the fat middle-aged supervisor passing by, and glared at his subordinates with dissatisfaction.

"Young man, don't rush to declare first, why don't I briefly introduce to you, in fact, there are three types of licenses you can apply for - film production, television and advertising production, and commercial advertising intermediary...... These are divided into three levels according to the registered capital and scale, and the smallest C-level business license is the company with 25 employees and a registered capital of 10 million ......"

The supervisor especially put (daomengren to see the fastest update) that "10 million" accentuated the tail note. He has met a few young people like Li Xiaole, most of whom are hot-blooded young people who dare to apply stupidly without knowing the height of the sky.

Last time, there was a college student who had just graduated, and when he came over, he was ashamed to say what kind of film and television shooting he wanted to apply for, and he wanted to apply for seven or eight licenses in one breath, and when he heard that he needed at least 10 million registered capital, his face turned into an eggplant on the spot, and Zuihou stammered and muttered that he wanted to go back and think about it, and he walked away. Of course, there is a funnier situation, half a year ago, a kid who studied in college for three years, after filling out the form, found that the funds were not enough, he actually took out his new LG mobile phone on the spot and patted it on the counter and asked:

"This is my fixed asset, so it should also be used as registered capital, right?" Zuihou also quarreled on the spot because of the failed application, and it became one of the jokes of the office after dinner.

Ha Zhiyuan's pretty face changed slightly, one business license is 10 million, and three licenses are 30 million, and secretly glanced at Li Xiaole's reaction from the corner of his eye, thinking how could Li Xiaole get so much money. If he is embarrassed to answer, it must be that he has no money, then I will say that my stomach hurts and I am clamoring to go home...... That way he shouldn't feel too shameless......

But Li Xiaole was not as surprised as she expected, but responded calmly: "Please see clearly, I am a Chinese national, and the other partner is still a student in school, according to the new cultural investment law promulgated by Seoul in 97, we can enjoy the dual preferential policies of foreign cultural investment and student entrepreneurship." I want to apply for an E-level temporary business license, which means that we only need a registered capital of 1.27 million yuan to be eligible to apply. ”

This time it was the fat supervisor's turn to feel strange, this kind of E-level license is generally handled by institutions, and there is no publicity to the outside world, not many people know at all, how did this young Chinese child know?

couldn't help but look at the documents of Li Xiaole and Ha Jiwon again, Dan Guo's students, and wondered if it was recommended by a member of the Film Promotion Committee? There was nothing wrong with carefully reviewing the information, so I nodded and politely handed over the form.

After Li Xiaole carefully filled out the form, he got a draft agreement, and then handed over the bank card at another window to check the registered capital, signed, and went back and forth several times.

"Haode, I need to confirm the contact number and the name of the company applying for it." The staff said.

"Black Pearl, the company name is Black Pearl." Li Xiaole blurted out without thinking about it, with a look of excitement on his face, this is the noun that popped up in his mind when he was drinking with Ha Ji Won that day.

The lonely Jakes Sparrow just needs a Black Pearl to ride the waves and sail the sea!

Walking out of the door of the noisy industrial and commercial office, Li Xiaole took the audit form and felt the sun shining on his face, and he was in a good mood at this time. Ha Ji Won pulled the two pigtails of the woolen hat next to his face, playfully squeezed him lightly with his shoulder, and said with a smile: "You can laugh out loud if you are so proud, how uncomfortable it should be, President Li-"

"Am I proud? President He-" Li Xiaole coughed very seriously.

"That's -- you wrote the words 'triumphant' on the door of your head, and the illiterate ones really can't read it." Ha Ji Won squinted his eyes and smiled cutely.

Li Xiaole walked in front, thinking about it himself, he felt that things were a little incredible, after a week of review period, he could really have his own company? He took a deep breath and pretended to be relaxed: "If you just register as a legal person with me, you are not afraid that I will go bankrupt?" ”

Looking at Li Xiaole's slightly thin back, Ha Ji Won hesitated, not knowing how to answer the best, and suddenly went around to Li Xiaole and hugged Li Xiaole tightly, shouting: "President Li - I believe in you!" You'll be able toβ€”"

Li Xiaole was stunned for a moment, then smiled, feeling the unconditional support coming from behind, which made his heart, which had been depressed and suppressed for days, finally feel a lot more comfortable. This feeling is so good, as if nothing on this shijie can stop him, Li Xiaole suddenly boiled with blood, raised his voice and shouted from the bottom of his heart: "Black Pearl, set sailβ€”"

As soon as he finished yelling, he noticed that the passers-by on the street were all looking at him as if they were looking at aliens, as if they were smiling, and then he felt that the little hands holding him behind him were sluggish for a while, and then they were withdrawn like lightning. When he turned back again, Ha Ji Won had already fled, and he turned back far away, glaring at him with that extremely disgusted look, shouting as he ran:

"It's so embarrassing, don't say I know you......"

******

During the company's audit, in order to cope with the on-site defense, Ha Ji Won would come to Li Xiaole's small room every day to report and memorize all the details of the paper. Li Xiaole also continued to shoot various shots for her, training her as an actor in the subtleties of her movements and eyes.

If so, almost a week has passed before you know it.

On the day when they got the three long-coveted business licenses, Li Xiaole and Ha Ji Won were immersed in the joy of making their dreams come true all day, and after sending Ha Ji Won back to the company, it was late at night when Li Xiaole returned home.

The first thing to do when you enter the door is to turn on the computer, Li Xiaole wants to see the "Save the Cat" post he sent before, he hasn't had time to care about this post recently, and he doesn't know what the situation is, but after turning on the phone, the first thing is to deal with an email reply.

As one of the main Korean drama translators of the largest Korean drama subtitle group in the mainland, "Korean Drama Empire", he has been absent from work for almost a week, this email is sent by the manager of the "Korean Drama Empire" website, and the general content of the message is:

"Li Xiaole, as the administrator of the website, we sincerely hope that you can continue to help, our website only has a few translations, and you can't keep up with other websites if you miss one progress......"

Your sister, let me do volunteer work, you still take it for granted, and you don't bother to take care of you. Li Xiaole closed the email and logged on to the website of the Screenwriters Guild with great anticipation, but at a glance, he was greatly disappointed that the article that he had spent three days painstakingly completed actually landed on page 10, with only a few replies.

Except for a guy named Flying Fat who replied: "Really creative buddy, all screenwriters should check this out!" "More kind. The remaining three replies are all cynicism:

"Hey, is this kid named H trying to sensationalize? What a bullshit taxonomy, I've been in this business for seven years, and I've never heard of it. ”

"It's nonsense that the sci-fi theme of "Alien" belongs to the same genre as "Jaws"? Still imitating the bridges in it? Oh my God, I thought that being a screenwriter has always been very logical? ”

"Really, save the cat? What does this have to do with screenwriters? ”
