Chapter 45: The King's Man
Zheng Chengxian looked at Quan Baolan in front of him with a strong smile in surprise, "Why are you here?" ”
"Oba, my sister sued me, saying that I saw you performing here on the Internet, so I came!" Quan Baolan stood there crampedly, and the strange eyes of the people around her made her feel uneasy.
"Let's go!" Seeing Baolan's discomfort, Zheng Chengxian reached out and wanted to pull her hands, but hesitated and gave up.
"Agassi!" Just as the two of them were about to leave, Li Zhien chased out, "Agassi, what's your name?" Can you leave a contact information? I want to learn composition from you! ”
"My name is Zheng Chengxian, there is no need for contact information, I believe we will meet in the future!" Jung Sung-hyun gently said to Lee Ji-eun that although she was still young, he had already recognized her as the future IU.
After speaking, he walked out of the underground passage with Quan Baolan, ignoring Li Zhien behind him with a disappointed face, but Quan Baolan looked back several times.
"Oba, have you eaten?" The two of them walked through the silver-white streets, and Quan Baolan had nothing to say.
"I wasn't hungry just now, but now you're really a little hungry, come with me to eat!" Zheng Chengxian's mood improved, and the gloom on his face dissipated a lot.
"Have you been here for a long time? Why don't you call me? ”
"I've just arrived!" Quan Baolan shook his head, the ball of yarn on his hat swaying back and forth, "Oba, aren't you happy?" ”
Raising his head and looking at the snowflakes falling in the sky, Zheng Chengxian's eyes were a little confused,
"I don't know, maybe it's just a momentary feeling!"
"I know, Mom said you're idle!" With her hands behind her back, she walked on the snow with her hands behind her back.
"Huh? Auntie really said that!? "The concise 'leisure' made Zheng Chengxian a little confused.
"Well, Mom said that you brains engaged in literary and artistic creation are broken! Thinking all day long, thinking about it, I can't get out of it! Kicking the snow on the ground hard, the snow powder raised was like an elf flying around Quanbaolan.
Zheng Chengxian was speechless, what he said was so accurate that there was no way to refute what was accurate!
"Maybe!" Zheng Chengxian reluctantly admitted that he was indeed a little sentimental.
When did she become a character like Sister Lin? In this life, there is a career, love, friendship, what is not satisfied with caring for yourself and the people you care about?
Thinking about this, the blocks in Zheng Chengxian's heart seemed to disappear all at once, and he exhaled easily and turned his head to look at Quan Baolan, "Come with me to eat something, I haven't eaten anything all night!" ”
Quan Baolan nodded vigorously, and her smiling eyes were like a crescent moon!
After a month of publicity, the premiere of "The King's Man" was held in early March, and all previous publicity, including the press conference, Jung Sung-hyun rejected it on the grounds of writing a book, which made the media once claim that the people who spoke wildly at the beginning had no confidence in the film.
So this time Lee Jun-yi asked Jung Sung-hyun to be there, which embarrassed him who was not used to being exposed to the camera.
At the premiere on March 2, Jung Sung-hyun, who was in a suit and leather shoes, stood at the door like a welcome guest. Everyone was invited by the director and actors, and everything such as the on-site media was contacted by Lee Jun-yi, and Jung Sung-hyun, who was the first brother of film and television, didn't understand this.
The long red carpet was rolled all the way, the media lights on both sides were flickering, Lee Jun-yi was answering reporters' questions, and Jung Sung-hyun was in a daze.
Most of the people who came didn't know each other, and they all knew from the words that they were all in the industry, and Zheng Chengxian coped with a formulaic smile on his face.
Just when Jung Sung-hyun was lamenting that he was bored, a black sedan came, and Yoo Jae-seok, who was wearing a black suit, got out of the car with Lee Hyori, and Lee Hyori, who was wearing a silver sequined big deep V evening dress, murdered many reporters' films.
"Brother Shi, Hyorinuna, you're here! I thought Brother Xiulu didn't inform you! Zheng Chengxian greeted him and said enthusiastically, there is finally someone who can speak!
"Xiulu? Xiulu didn't say it! Chengxian, you didn't notify my brother of the premiere of the movie, if it weren't for Xiaoli's deadlifting, I would be embarrassed to come! Liu Zaishi complained slightly.
Zheng Chengxian looked at Li Xiaoli in amazement, "I thought Brother Xiulu would inform you, after all, you often do shows together!" ”
"He didn't say it, probably thinking you would! You two are really a match, your nerves are so thick!? Lee Hyo-ri rolled his eyes at Jung Sung-hyun angrily.
It's only the beginning of February, looking at Lee Hyo-ri's extreme outfit, Jung Sung-hyun has to praise "Hyo-ri Nuna, you're really not afraid of the cold!" “
Li Xiaoli almost didn't get angry, and pulled Liu Zaishi away angrily, "Brother Shi, let's go, and then we'll be angry!" “
"Chengxian will go in and talk later!" Yoo Jae-seok said apologetically and was pulled in by Lee Hyo-ri.
Several MCs born from the family came, Kang Dae-sung even brought the whole team of the group, the lights on the scene flickered non-stop, BINBANG debuted only two years ago, and there was already the momentum of the later heavenly group, Jung Sung-hyun and they hardly saw it, and he was very surprised to be there.
"Dacheng, why are you here?" Jung Sung-hyun was surprised and didn't know who invited him.
"Brother Chengxian, the president arranged for us to come!" Jiang Dacheng smiled and saluted with the group, and Zheng Chengxian was in a hurry.
"President Yang?" Jung Sung-hyun was a little confused, he didn't know Yang Hyun-suk.
"Yes, I don't know the specifics, if you have the chance, you can ask yourself! We went in first! After Kang Dae-sung finished speaking, he entered the venue with BIGBANG.
The follow-up people made Zheng Chengxian more and more confused, **'s Girls' Generation, Kwon Bao'er and Li Xiuman, many reporters were surprised when Li Xiuman appeared, this is the premiere of the movie, what are these ballads here for?
CCM's Kim Kwang-so also came, "It's a pity that Sung Hyun Xi couldn't talk deeply last time, you won't blame you for coming uninvited this time!?" Kim Kwang-so smiled affectionately, while Jung Sung-hyun was confused.
"President Jin is here, it's too late to welcome, how dare you blame!" Doubts are doubts, and the etiquette of the scene still needs to be done sufficiently.
"I didn't bring it with me if it's inconvenient for Baolan to come forward now, I hope you can understand!" Kim Kwang-so patted Jung Sung-hyun on the shoulder like a kind elder, "I'll go in first, you can greet the guests first!" “
I thought that there would not be many guests, who would have thought that so many guests who were not in the film and television industry came, and the whole link made everyone spend time in a daze.
It was easy to complete the reception and enter the venue, and Jin Xiulu, who was sitting next to the main creator, asked curiously
"Chengxian, those people were all invited by you!?"
"No, I didn't invite Brother Shi, who else can I invite!?" Faced with the questions of other people in the crew, Zheng Chengxian answered truthfully.
"In short, Chengxian, you have something to look at, otherwise these people won't give anyone a cheer!" Kim Tae-hee gestured with his eyes to Lee so-man, Kim Kwang-so and some other guests who were heavier.
"Who knows, whatever! If you come, you are a guest! "If you don't want to think about things you don't understand, the glances of Quan Baoer from time to time behind you make Zheng Chengxian very uncomfortable.
The lights gradually dimmed, and a melodious flute with ancient rhyme slowly opened the film.
Watching this movie again, Zheng Sung-hyun has mixed feelings, different from watching flowers from the other side in his previous life, this time he has his own participation in it with a touch of other meaning.
The film begins with a performance by a group of jugglers, with a pair of feet in white socks appearing on the screen to the sound of gongs and drums, a masked artist, dressed as a woman to expose her slender waist and abdomen, and when the mask is taken off to reveal the indistinguishable face, the audience lets out a low cry.
Even the actors who saw the film for the first time couldn't help but look at Lee Joon-gi, but they didn't expect this man to be so enchanting in the movie.
The movie continues, and everyone is attracted by the two scenes, following their footsteps to experience the joys and sorrows of the little people.
Some people with more emotions were attracted by the plot and sobbed from time to time, among which the tears in Lee Joon-gi's eyes were the heaviest.
Zheng Chengxian kept looking left and right, seeing that everyone was watching intently, the big stone in his heart finally let go, it seems that the small changes will not damage the classic, and the audience's reaction at this time shows this.
At the end of the movie, Kong Ji and Changsheng flew up on the rope again on the screen, and the poignant and sad "Marriage" sounded at the right time, which was also a small change by Zheng Chengxian, while the audience's thoughts were still immersed in the movie, the music gave them another heavy blow.
It turned out to be very effective, and some people had already gotten up and planned to leave, but Lee Sun-hee's singing made them sit down and listen quietly for a few minutes, and the venue was full of sobs.
"Teacher, I've heard this song, why is it so uncomfortable!" Quan Bao'er couldn't cry and said intermittently that the girlhood next to her had already cried into tears.
"This is Sung Hyun who knows how to grasp people's psychology, and when you are still feeling for the people in the play, use music to destroy the barriers in your heart! What a genius! Even if he is as strong as Li Xiuman, he can't help but feel his nose sour.
The audience gave a standing ovation after a brief silence in the music, and even the most discerning journalist had to admit that it was a very wonderful thought-provoking film.
"We made it!" Li Junyi excitedly stood up and took the hand of the main creator of the crew and walked onto the stage to accept congratulations.
The thunderous applause from the audience brought tears to the eyes of the actors, and the hard work of the months finally paid off, and they finally proved themselves with a movie!
The next day, the major media reported on the film and praised it highly, and various critics praised and occasionally objected to it, focusing on the same-sex love involved, and the film itself was unattackable.
Among them, the famous film critic Shin Seung-hoon praised the literary and artistic quality of the film, affirmed the performance of the actors, and finally boldly predicted that the film will become an insurmountable mountain in the film industry in 2008.
"The King's Man" set a record on the day of its premiere, and according to the official survey statistics after the event, viewers gave an average of 9. 23 ratings, 9 more than the original 9 for the movie "Taiji Flag Flying", which broke through the largest number of viewers in Korean history. 21 has a higher rating.
And that's just the beginning of the storm.
