Chapter 393: It's a Comedy

Jung Hyuk-jae and Park Kwang-hyun came to the side of the set, and the two began to talk about some problems encountered during the filming of the movie "The Troubles of Beauty".

As a representative of a well-known rookie director in the film industry, after the filming of "Welcome to Dongmo Village" ended, and the film achieved envious box office results, Park Kwang-hyun received invitations from many well-known film production companies in the circle, and offered him to choose both the script and the actors, and the budget of the film also gave a great promise, so it can be said that he completely trusts him. However, with the good start of the cooperation of "Welcome to Dongmo Village", Park Kwang-hyun finally chose to sign a contract with JHJEntertainment and become a solid member of the huge film business empire in Jung Hyuk Jae's heart.

"How's the movie going?" Jung Hyuk-jae began to inquire about the filming progress of the movie.

In Jung Hyuk-jae's original expectation, "Lao Qian" was the first to be screened as a pioneer, followed by "The Troubles of Beauty", and "The Monster of the Han River", which has the largest investment, the most special effects production, and the most difficult to shoot, was screened at the end of the year, which was Zheng Hyuk-jae's initial expectation, so that there was no need to consider the schedule, when the popularity of "Lao Qian" declined, and "The Troubles of Beauty" could be promoted at the end of the screening.

His purpose is to seize the Korean film market in the second half of the year, and Jung Hyuk-jae's idea is absolutely a fool's dream if you watch it alone, but if his words are released, there really won't be many people who doubt it, because the box office performance of "Lao Qian" is already very close to the box office record of "Friends", and the record may be broken in two weeks.

At least 8 million people watching electronic music movies, this is a new director's achievement? Maybe not many people will believe it, but it does happen in real life.

When Park Kwang-hyun heard Jung Hyuk-jae's words and thought about it for a while, he replied: "The progress is actually not slow, the cooperation between the male and female protagonists is very tacit, and the words of the crew are also very good." ”

Park Kwang-hyun's words caused Jung Hyuk-jae to raise an eyebrow. "Where's the progress so far?"

"If there's one more, we can shoot all the shots." Park Kwang-hyun spoke.

Don't look at the shot shot on the set today, which belongs to the very front position of the film, almost the first twenty minutes, but in fact, some of the follow-up shots and content have been filmed, after all, film shooting is different from domestic TV series shooting, film shooting is generally arranged to shoot the same scene together, such as parking lots, restaurants, etc. Or you can arrange shots in the same environment together, such as dark night or rain.

"I want to see the finished footage." Jung Hyuk-jae commanded, and Park Kwang-hyun was a little surprised when he heard Jung Hyuk-jae's words, after all, he didn't directly intervene in the filming process of the movie like this when he was filming "Welcome to Dongmo Village".

The biggest leader in the crew is the director, but there is another person named the investor, and Jung Hyuk-jae is not only the investor of the movie "The Trouble of Beauty", but also has the title of producer in the movie, and his requirements are not excessive.

………………………………………………………………

Because the director of the crew and the big boss went to discuss things, Park Kwang-hyun arranged for the assistant director to take over his baton and continue the next shots. From here, you can see the responsibilities of the assistant director, generally when the director is there, deal with chores, bad things, and take over the 'mess' when the director is not there to continue shooting, in short, this position is more like a firefighter, where you need to move.

Jin Yazhong was barely lying on the recliner, mainly because of the fat clothes on her body, which enlarged her body more than two times out of thin air, and the whole person was like a piece of pork belly embedded in the chair, and the whole person looked extremely funny. And she was unconscious, mainly because she was too tired.

Barely lying flat on the chair. Jin Yazhong let the special effects makeup artist specially invited from the United States by the crew to apply it on his face, maybe it was touch-up, in short, it looked much more troublesome than ordinary makeup, in order to have the best effect in front of the camera, so as not to look so fake, it takes 20 to 40 minutes just to touch up makeup. It is enough to see the difficulty of Jin Yazhong.

"Did Jung Hyuk Jae Xi and Park PD talk about things?" Jin Yazhong watched the two walk out of the set and couldn't help asking.

At this time, the assistant who was standing aside with a handbag and serving her nodded, and then said, "I don't know very well, but the two people seem to be quite familiar." ”

"Can you be unfamiliar? Have you seen the movie "Welcome to Dongmo Village"? Jin Yazhong said as he lay flat on his chair.

The little assistant nodded, as last year's box office champion "Welcome to Dongmo Village", how could he not have watched it, and he also contributed five movie tickets among the more than 10 million moviegoers. Movies that I went to the cinema with my family.

"I've definitely seen it, how could I not have seen such a good-looking movie!" The little assistant said with a smile.

"The director of that movie is director Park Kwang-hyun, and one of the investors is Jung Hyuk-jae." As a member of the entertainment industry, Jin Yazhong still knows a lot of things that are circulating in private.

"So powerful?" After hearing Jin Yazhong's words, the little assistant couldn't help but show a 'amazing' look on his face.

Jin Yazhong's face showed a few black lines, the little assistant in front of her should really make up for some knowledge of the entertainment industry, after all, she is a newly recruited assistant in the company, and everything is not on the right track.

Jin Yazhong was lying on a chair enjoying the services of a bearded makeup artist from the United States, perhaps because he was so tired from the recent shooting, that he had closed his eyes after a while, and after a few minutes, he heard a soft snoring, and it seemed that he had fallen asleep.

The little assistant held his handbag and looked at Jin Yazhong, who had fallen asleep, and was a little overwhelmed for a while, not to wake up, not to wake up.

As a newcomer to this industry, she has suffered a lot with Jin Yazhong recently, and it is almost common to get up early and return late, not to mention the things that need to be worried about at the scene, even if there are seniors to take her, she is still a little powerless, for example, she doesn't know whether she should wake up Jin Yazhong in the current situation, because she also knows that Jin Yazhong's recent itinerary and shooting are too tired. But the crew was waiting for her again, and after the little assistant was entangled in her heart for a few minutes, she still walked to Jin Yazhong's side and stretched out her arm and shook her body gently.

"Sister Yazhong, wake up, you've already made up your makeup, let's shoot in the district!" The assistant said softly. There was a hint of nervousness in his words, as if he was afraid that Jin Yazhong would wake up and say himself.

Because it hadn't been long since he fell asleep, Jin Yazhong opened his eyes and looked at the little assistant who was close at hand, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I didn't expect me to fall asleep like this, haha......"

Seeing Jin Yazhong open his mouth and laugh, the little assistant was not so nervous now, "Sister Yazhong, you should have a good rest for a while." ”

"What to rest, now is the time to work hard." Jin Yazhong said with a smile, but the smile on the corner of his mouth looked a little fragile. After all, she is still a woman after all.

"Alright, let's go shoot when we're rested!" With the support of the little assistant, Jin Yazhong sat up from the chair with difficulty, looking at herself in the mirror, the big face was more than twice the face of her own in reality, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a wry smile when she saw this, she simply gave up her original image for this movie, and it can be said that she gambled half of her star journey on this movie.

“Youaresobeautiful!”

Just as Jin Yazhong was about to leave the dressing room, he heard the bearded dressing room from Hollywood behind him suddenly pop out of his mouth, and he was pleasantly surprised, but he turned around and said "thank you". However, he soon remembered that the person in front of him did not speak Korean, and immediately replied in English: "Thankyou! ”。 After saying this, Jin Yazhong raised his head and saw the bearded makeup artist giving him a thumbs up.

Walking out of the dressing room, the gossip-loving little assistant kept whispering beside Jin Yazhong: "Sister, what do you mean by that bearded makeup artist?" Is it hard for him to take a fancy to you? ”

"Go, go, go, what nonsense!" Jin Yazhong's finger gave his assistant a burst before he said, "Where am I beautiful?" Jin Yazhong looked down at his toes as he spoke. Sure enough, I can't see anything, this is the distress of the fat man, I can't see my feet when I look down.

"So, maybe it's what people say about Ernie before he put on makeup?"

…………………………………………………………………

The finished footage of "The Trouble of Beauty" is mainly kept in the safe on the set, and some of them have already begun to be edited. Jung Hyuk-jae checked the completion of the filming of the main plot of several movies under the leadership of Park Kwang-hyun, and after watching it, Jung Hyuk-jae couldn't help frowning together, the purpose of his visit this time was not mainly to find a problem, but after reading these paragraphs, he really found a relatively big problem.

Park Kwang-hyun had been paying attention to Jung Hyuk-jae's expression when he was playing these clips, and when he saw Jung Hyuk-jae's brows furrowed together, Park Kwang-hyun's heart was also a little worried, and he didn't know where he had touched Jung Hyuk-jae's bottom line.

Park Kwang-hyun is an excellent director and has a very bright record, but a good director does not mean that all the films he makes can meet the audience's tastes like "Welcome to Dongmo Village", and even Jung Hyuk-jae does not dare to guarantee that in this regard.

In the few scenes I just watched, Jung Hyuk-jae affirmed that Park Kwang-hyun is a very good director, whether it is the shape of the characters and the use of lens language, to the change of color and the movement of the actors, he is impeccable, but on the most critical point, he made a mistake, that is, the positioning of "The Troubles of Beauty" is comedy and love!

"Welcome to Dongmo Village" also has the word comedy in the entry, but the most attractive thing about "Welcome to Dongmo Village" is its plot and war elements, it can be said that Park Kwang-hyun is very smart when grasping these points, but it is not very applicable to "The Troubles of Beauty".

When adapting it into a script, Jung Hyuk-jae focused on depicting the comedy elements, but he is not a director after all, in the actual shooting, although Park Kwang-hyun did not adapt the script much, but from the content he saw, he probably deleted some funny clips, and seemed to want to focus on the controversial topic of 'plastic surgery', and deeply dig out the deep reasons behind 'plastic surgery'.

"The Troubles of Beauty" is a comedy movie, not a documentary, or a drama, and it is absolutely undesirable to instill a certain idea in the audience in a comedy, not only will the comedy effect decline, but it will also cause the audience to be bored.

"President, is there something wrong?" Park Guangxian's attitude was not bad, although he was a little displeased in his heart, he still asked very sincerely.

Jung Hyuk-jae glanced at Park Kwang-hyun in front of him, and then said, "Then I'll just say it." ”

Park Kwang-hyun nodded, and Jung Hyuk-jae continued: "I don't know what your positioning is for the movie "Beauty's Troubles", when I wrote the script, I positioned it as a comedy, a comedy for the whole family, maybe some ideas in the plot are not very desirable, but the comedy factor will cover up these contents. ”

Seeing Park Kwang-hyun listening carefully, Jung Hyuk-jae continued: "What is the meaning of the existence of comedy? I probably don't need to say that you know it, that is, to let the audience laugh out loud in the theater and get rid of the worries of the week, and our role is to be responsible for entertainment. ”

"That's why I put so much ink on comedy!"

Listening to Jung Hyuk-jae's words, Park Kwang-hyun couldn't help but fall into deep thought, perhaps after filming "Welcome to Dongmo Village", his thoughts have fallen into a misunderstanding, that is, no matter what kind of film work he faces, he wants to delve into the meaning behind the movie, but to delve into these is to forget the movie itself, movies are originally used to entertain the public, where do you need so much preaching and meaning.

"I'm the one who drilled the horns!" Thinking of this, Park Kwang-hyun couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

"It's just the two of us now, and I don't hide anything." Jung Hyuk-jae continued: "That kind of profound movie is used to win awards, and this kind of movie is used to make money, which is what I usually watch. ”

Jung Hyuk-jae didn't hide his inner thoughts in the slightest, and said bluntly.

Park Kwang-hyun nodded, and as he turned around, he nodded heavily, seemingly agreeing with Jung Hyuk-jae's opinion......
