Chapter 40: What is Comedy? (1st Update)
Chapter 40 What is comedy? (1st Update)
Lee Kyung-gyu laughed, as if he was very happy, "How about it, I didn't expect it." ”
Then he was a little nervous, and said in a very fast tone: "Don't worry, I'm not a director, I'm just a producer." ”
Jin Xiu nodded weakly.
"Haha, don't be discouraged, although my previous movies failed, I also summed up my experience, so you can rest assured this time." Lee Kyung-gyu blinked comically, and then said with a face full of surprise: "Anyway, I can't believe that you will accept the invitation, at first I just had the attitude of trying it, but when I saw your offer at the desk yesterday, I almost thought I was dazzled." ”
Jin Xiu scratched his head modestly, and then said curiously: "Am I so sought-after now?" ”
Li Jinggui raised his eyebrows and said, "Excessive modesty, but complacency!" ”
Forehead!
Jin Xiu was speechless, he hadn't walked out of the door much in the past few days, so he naturally didn't know how hot he was!
Li Jinggui looked at Jin Xiu's blank expression, and couldn't help but open his mouth and said, "You really don't know, right, didn't your company tell you?" ”
Jin Xiu nodded helplessly.
Li Jinggui smiled dumbly, took a sip of coffee on the table and said, "Your company is really wonderful!" ”
Jin Xiu thought for a moment and nodded quite approvingly, as if the few people he knew had such strange qualities.
"How can I say it, you are now on the same level as Lee Min Ho and others, you are commonly known as a super newcomer, but you don't accept advertisements, and you don't go on variety shows, this sense of mystery makes your worth skyrocket, and now your worth is beyond the reach of some veteran stars, and I almost smashed the pot and sold iron in order to please you."
Lee Kyung-gyu looked distressed and wiped his tears.
Now Jin Xiu's worth has indeed risen as if he has gone crazy, just because of his mystery, after the movie became popular, Jin Xiu never showed his face.
In order to invite Jin Xiu, those wealthy advertisers ruthlessly mentioned the advertising fee again and again, but they were all politely rejected by Zheng Yunzai.
But these people still don't give up, and they still think that the money is small, so they are stunned to compare and bid, and they are embarrassed to sell for less than 100 million units for a while.
In this way, Jin Xiu's worth was speculated to a sky-high price, but this momentum has not weakened, and he is still frantically chasing Jin Xiu, and he has a fierce posture.
Jin Xiu felt her head buzz and her flesh ached at the same time.
That's hundreds of millions of advertising dollars, Zheng Yun actually refused to do this with you, I remember you!
waved his hand to stop Lee Kyung-gyu's eloquent talk, and the sky-high advertising fees in his mouth made him feel a lot of pain.
Jin Xiu calmed down and asked curiously, "I haven't acted in comedy before, why did you choose me?" ”
I saw Li Jinggui rubbing his hands a little embarrassed and grinning: "Because you are expensive!" ”
Jin Xiu was speechless, this is the Shenma theory!
"Haha, there's some ambiguity in saying that." Lee Kyung-gyu snorted and continued, "Let's put it this way, your current worth indicates your market value, so even if the quality of the movie itself is not good, people will flock to it. ”
Then he whispered a little embarrassedly: "I just want to add a guarantee to the movie." ”
Jin Xiu understood, but he couldn't cry or laugh, he had been preparing for so long, and it was just a guarantee in his mouth!
Shaking his head, he sighed: "I like this movie very much, so I want to take it, I"
Frame!
Before he finished speaking, Li Jinggui pressed the table with an excited face and said, "Really? Do you really accept it? ”
Seeing Jin Xiu's startled expression, he said embarrassedly: "Mian (I'm sorry), I'm a little excited." ”
Li Jingkui sat down slowly, and said with some feelings: "I lost nearly half of my family property in the last movie, that's why I value this movie so much." If I fail this time, I will really quit the film and television industry. ”
The middle-aged man in front of him has spent 30 years hosting variety shows, bringing smiles to people anytime and anywhere, but who would have thought that such an uncle who is not confused also has a dream.
Alas!!
Jin Xiu sighed, and the two were relatively speechless.
The atmosphere was a little heavy, and Jin Xiu could see through the glass window that it was drizzling outside, and his vision was blocked and a little hazy.
People are rushing through the rain, all for life, but who knows that maybe they also have their own dreams, but they are crushed by the cruel reality.
Half an hour later.
"Haha, I made you laugh, I just felt it!" Li Jingkui came back to his senses and said with a smile.
Jin Xiu shook his head: "No, you make me admire!" ”
Forehead!
Li Jingkui glanced at Jin Xiu suspiciously, and after seeing the other party's sincere eyes, he was a little embarrassed and said, "Okay, okay, the more you do this, the more embarrassed I am!" ”
Then the conversation changed, and Yan said: "Now let's get to the point!" ”
Kim so is also solemn, this film is his transformation work, so he attaches no less importance to Cheng than Lee Kyung-kui.
Li Jingkui saw Jin Xiu's serious appearance, nodded with satisfaction, and said secretly: The young man is not arrogant or impatient, very good!
Immediately, he was slightly at a loss and asked, "You know that this is a comedy movie, right?" ”
Seeing Jin Xiu nodding, he continued:
"Your image in 'Memories of Murder' is stunning, and it subverts the traditional image of a killer, but I want to ask you, what is comedy?"
Then he glanced at it lightly, and Jin Xiu, who frowned slightly, was not in a hurry to wait quietly.
What is comedy, the answer to this question is difficult to grasp.
Some people think that consummation is comedy, some think that being funny is comedy, and some think that irony is comedy.
There are many sayings, but I don't know the essentials, and it has always been the opinion of the benevolent and the wise of the wise.
And Lee Kyung-kyu, who has been a Gagman (comedy artist) for more than 30 years, should also know this, so Kim so-kyu is even more confused.
To be honest, he has a lot of options for letting Kim so answer according to the standard answer, but apparently Lee Kyung-kyu is not asking for a labeled answer.
I can't help but feel a little distressed.
Under the table, the fingers of both hands were crossed, and the bone joints rubbed slightly, which was a problem when Jin Xiu was thinking, so that he could concentrate.
Comedy is so easy to understand that even a three-year-old can say it, and that is - laugh!
The only positioning of comedy is this, and now some people add a lot of elements in order to improve the style, and the movies they make are nondescript, and they are labeled as a comedy, and the tears of the audience are applied.
Comedy doesn't need sadness, it doesn't need other elements, it has only one mission, and that is - laughter!
It's the same even if you strip it and break it down, because that's the essence, what is a comedy that's not funny? Four is not like?
Now Li Jingkui's question, he understands a little!
Nowadays, in order to diversify business, comedy is no longer a purebred comedy, but something else, and what Lee Kyung-kyu needs is an attitude from Kim so.
Attitude towards traditional comedy support.
Exhaling softly, Jin Xiu said slowly: "Smile!" ”
A smile appeared on the face of Li Jingkui on the opposite side and nodded with satisfaction
