Park Jung-hyuk returned from China and received good news. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Representative, director Kim Han-min has already been contacted. He's interested in our script and would like to meet with you? ”

"Oh? That's good news, make an appointment for me as soon as possible. ”

Park Jung-hyuk was also in good spirits and hurriedly ordered.

In his previous life, he watched the Battle of Mingliang, and knew that if this movie wanted to be reproduced, the director had to be Kim Hanmin. So before going to China, I gave instructions to KPTF's film working group to get director Kim Han-min no matter what.

Unexpectedly, these guys really didn't eat dry food, and they really did what he wanted.

Park Jung-hyuk didn't know that in fact, the process of inviting Kim Han-min was very smooth.

Because when Park Jung-hyuk and Kim Woo-taek were discussing the establishment of the film project, Kim Han-min was actually silently preparing the materials for the battle of Mingliang.

Kim Han-min planned to prepare to a certain extent and really form a plan that touched people's hearts, and then go to a film production company to cooperate.

Unexpectedly, someone overlapped with his ideas.

And after seeing the script provided by the staff of KPTF, Kim Hanmin immediately threw away his preparation plan.

Because he found that in the script provided by KPTF, he had all the elements he wanted, and there were also elements that he didn't expect.

Even if he continues to prepare for it himself, it is estimated that it will come to this extent.

In that case, why bother with that effort?

He is a director and has only one studio under his command, how can he compete with professional film production companies for efficiency?

When he heard that this script was written by Park Jung-hyuk, Kim Han-min was also very moved.

This year, the League of Thieves broke the box office record of Korean movies, and there was a lot of excitement within the Korean film and television industry, and there was talk everywhere.

Kim Hanmin is also very concerned about this matter.

However, his focus is different from the outside world, mainly on the director and screenwriter.

Needless to say, director Choi Dong-hoon has always been one of the best action movie directors in Korea. In recent years, it has also been a success, and its status has risen steadily.

Now with tens of millions, record-breaking movies as a foreshadowing, he has become the top director.

But Kim Han-min and Choi Dong-hoon are peers, both of whom are the best directors of the Mesozoic Generation, and there will be no chance of cooperation, so the attention is still poor.

What really makes Kim Hanmin pay attention is Park Jung-hyuk.

This alternative film and television screenwriter is simply a wonderful flower in the film and television production industry.

As a TV producer, he was able to write so many excellent scripts, which is definitely unique in the Korean film and television production industry.

When observing the League of Thieves, Kim Hanmin thought more than once that if he cooperated with Park Jung-hyuk, how to cut in, reach a consensus, and then make a first-class product?

Unexpectedly, Park Jung-hyuk came to the door so quickly, and he thought of a place with him.

Both of them felt that the Battle of Mingliang had a lot of room for maneuver and would become an immortal masterpiece.

The only difference is that Park Jung-hyuk moves faster.

While Kim Han-min was still looking for materials everywhere, he had already completed the creation of the script.

While Kim Han-min felt frustrated, he also became very interested in working with Park Jung-hyuk.

That's why I put forward the plan to meet Park Jung-hyuk as soon as possible.

For such a big director, Park Jung-hyuk has never been slack. Although he had just come back and had a tiring journey, he did not delay for a moment and replied directly to Kim Hanmin.

The place where they met was not in the café outside, but in the representative office of the new agency.

After all, this movie still needs to be invested and distributed by the New Society, and it can't be bypassed anyway. So since it's a cooperation discussion, it's better to get together.

Now that the producers, distributors, and directors are finally together, the conversation about the film has moved on to the next step.

Although Kim Hanmin has grown into a top director, he is actually not very old, he was born in 69, and he is a real young man in today's Korean film industry.

"I'm sorry, Director Jin, I just went to China once, and I only came back today, so I've been waiting for you for a long time."

In the face of Kim Hanmin, Park Jung-hyuk was very respectful, and he came up to accuse.

There is no way, today's Korean entertainment and cultural industry is rare in talents. In the face of heavyweight talents, it must be treated with caution.

He was kind and polite, and Kim Hanmin was even more arrogant.

The person in front of me is not just a representative of a production company, but also the head of the broadcasting agency. Not to mention the identity of the Standing Committee of the Broadcasting Association, any of them are real power figures.

"Hey, I'm too polite on behalf of you. It's a pleasure to work with you. I've watched League of Thieves more than three times, and the novel action scenes are amazing. ”

Jin Yuze next to him laughed and said, "Don't praise each other for the two of you, I listen to it numb." Let's talk about the next movie. ”

Although Kim Woo-taek has never cooperated with Kim Hanmin, they are all in this circle, and they also have a lot of intersections. So the speech is very casual, but it also eases the atmosphere between Park Jung-hyuk and Kim Han-min very well.

This is also one reason why Park Jung-hyuk chose to meet here.

After all, he and Kim Hanmin don't know each other, and if the discussion reaches an impasse, no one can change the atmosphere.

"Director Kim, although the script has already been written. But the Battle of Mingliang is different from ordinary movies, and it is not guaranteed that a good movie will be made if there is a script. ”

Regarding Park Jung-hyuk's assertion, both Kim Han-min and Kim Woo-taek all agree with it.

They all know that the difficulties of this movie are actually in the creation of war scenes, the enrichment of relevant historical materials, the mastery of various scenes and the production of special effects.

And these are things that the script can't provide.

"Yes, I studied the script of Representative Park. If you follow the script, the shooting plan will be much smoother. However, the location of the outbreak of war, the local hydrological environment, as well as the costumes, languages, customs, etc., that are in line with the times, still need to be verified and investigated one by one. ”

At this time, the major shareholder Kim Woo-taek spoke.

"Director Kim, don't worry. We, the production company, will do our best to support you. The cost is sufficient, even if you want to work with the National Institute of History, it doesn't matter. ”

Oh, Kim Woo-taek's domineering made Park Jung-hyuk and Kim Han-min impressed.

Don't look at the battle of Mingliang has not started filming yet, and there is not even a crew. Not to mention anything else, just a preliminary preparation, it is a pile of countless money.

There is no way, it costs money to investigate, it costs money to do modeling, and it costs money to make molds that match the turtle boat one by one. In addition, it is necessary to obtain detailed information about the directors from historical experts, which is a significant expense.

Don't look at NEW, it is one of the four major distribution companies in South Korea, but in fact, the scale of this company is very small. Counting the boss Jin Yuze, there are only more than 30 employees in total.

Park Jung-hyuk and Kim Han-min are very suspicious, where does the new company get the capital to support the production of the movie?

Seeing the suspicious gazes of the two, Jin Yuze smiled proudly and didn't hide it anymore.

"Hehe, there's good news for you two. Regarding the filming plan of the Battle of Mingliang, we have reached a consensus with China's Great Aim Company. Not long ago, Great Aim Company made an investment of 51 billion yuan in our new company. So there will be no obstacles to our film shooting plan. ”

Park Jung-hyuk and Kim Han-min were all shocked, but they didn't expect to be when they didn't pay attention. The new club actually found such a powerful reinforcement.

Kim Hanmin is still almost, but Park Jung-hyuk knows too well the strength of Huace Film and Television.

This large-scale film and television production company spanning TV, film and variety shows, and also has the function of artist management, is known as the number one TV drama in China.

Now that NEW has received the capital injection from Huace Film and Television, its strength must have increased a lot, no wonder Jin Yuze is so confident.

Not only that, but Jin Yuze also said a good news.

However, there are also requirements for the capital injection of Huace Film and Television. That is, after the Battle of Mingliang, we must prepare a sequel - the Battle of Luliang. Moreover, when filming the Battle of Luliang, Huace Film and Television not only acted as an investor, but also required Chinese actors to star. ”

"This ......"

Kim Hanmin's eyes narrowed, his emotions elusive, and he obviously felt that this was a bit harsh.

"That's a good thing, no problem at all."

Park Jung-hyuk's attitude was different, and he couldn't wait to agree.

Unlike Kim Hanmin, when he wrote the script of the Mingliang naval battle, he had already consulted a lot of historical materials, so he was very clear about that period of history.

Unlike the Battle of Myeongyang, which was fought entirely under the command of Yi Sunsin, the Battle of Luliang was completed by the combined forces of China and North Korea.

Moreover, to be honest, the actual commander of the Battle of Luliang was Chen Luan, the minister of the Ming Dynasty.

So if you really want to shoot the Battle of Luliang, then the Chinese side is an unavoidable factor. Rao is a shameless South Korean, and he will not dare to become an international laughing stock.

Therefore, even if Great Aim does not mention this request, Park Jung-hyuk, who plans to build the Imjin trilogy, will take the initiative to seek cooperation from the Chinese side.

Now that a powerful company like Great Aim has joined in, Park Jung-hyuk feels that his plan will go more smoothly.

When Park Jung-hyuk said that he had the intention to build the Imjin trilogy, Kim Woo-taek and Kim Han-min were also excited.

Just one Mingliang naval battle is already so good, if it is really made into a trilogy, then Kim Hanmin, the director, the two companies of NEW and KPTF, will be enough to go down in history.

With such a good thing, what is there to hesitate about?

Immediately, the three signed a formal cooperation agreement in the office of the representative of the new agency.

Kim Woo-taek happily transferred the pre-production fee to the account of Kim Hanmin's studio.

And Kim Hanmin couldn't wait, and after he went back, he joined up with the working group of KPTF and became the official Mingliang Naval War Film Working Group.

The next day, Kim Han-min met with Professors Moon Do-hoon and Yang Jae-hyuk of the National Institute of History of Korea, as well as a number of meteorological experts, and went to Jeonnam to investigate the ocean currents, weather, and topography in the area where the Battle of Myeongyang broke out.

Knowing Kim Hanmin's work plan, Park Jung-hyuk also had to sigh.

Sure enough, the success of the Battle of Mingliang was not accidental. (To be continued.) )
