Korea.
Kwak Jae-yong is Korean, to be precise, he is a Korean director.
As a director, he was born as a screenwriter.
Therefore, most of the time, Guo Zairong likes to pick scripts.
He believes that a good script determines the height of a film.
However, in the recent period, Guo Zairong found that he did not have a good script to choose from.
In other words, there are a lot of movie scripts, but Guo Zairong is not satisfied.
Because Guo Zairong found that Dafan has some creative movies, and Korean directors have basically finished filming.
If you want to make it yourself, no matter how good it is, what kind of movie can you make?
"Director Guo, here's a script, do you want to read it?"
Miai Suri took a script and handed it to Guo Jae-yong.
This is the task that Guo Zairong has been instructed to choose the script before.
It's just that at this moment, Guo Zairong shook his head, "Don't look at it." ”
Guo Zairong has read too many scripts recently, and he is a little crazy when he sees it. However, he still failed to find a suitable script. By now, Guo Zairong no longer puts his hope on these scripts. He decided that instead of thinking about the good cost of other screenwriters, he would better write it himself.
"Director Guo, this is the script sent by Feng Xiaogang, the director over there."
"Feng Xiaogang?"
Guo Zairong and Feng Xiaogang had contact at a Sino-Korean film exchange meeting.
"What is he going to do with a script for me?"
Regardless of the doubts, since it was recommended by Feng Xiaogang, Guo Zairong also planned to take a look.
"My sassy girlfriend?"
The name has a little meaning.
Is this a romance movie?
South Korea is relatively more enthusiastic about making romance movies than other countries.
What you love me, I love you, many people like to watch.
It's just that no matter how many people watch it, Guo Zairong has really filmed too many scenes like this before.
Now that he sees the so-called romance film, he has some headaches.
He would rather make a historical film than make this so-called romance film.
Moreover, Guo Zairong found that Korean romance films have come to an end. Countless directors have filmed all the love stories. Until now, Guo Zairong has found out. A lot of directors, some of the romance films they have made, are all copies of the films they have made before. It's just that it's just a different star and a different name.
In fact, their content is no different.
Seeing the name of my savage girlfriend, Guo Zairong was already a little uninterested in his heart.
However, because Feng Xiaogang, who is also a director, recommended it, Guo Zairong had to watch it patiently.
Hey, that seems to be kind of interesting.
After watching it for five minutes, Guo Zairong felt that the script of this movie seemed to have some innovation.
He is different from traditional Korean romance movies, and the protagonist in the story does not seem to be the male lead, but the female lead.
In other words, although in this, there are also male and female protagonists, but the most important thing is still the female protagonist.
This is very different from traditional Korean films, although, it is not a movie without a heroine. However, in romance movies, it has always been dominated by men. And women, no matter how important they are, are only after the male protagonist.
Guo Zairong's eyes lit up and he continued to look.
Until an hour, Guo Zairong carefully read all the scripts, and Guo Zairong was already excited.
"This script is simply fantastic."
It's not the story of this script that's great, but the heroine who stands out in this script.
Yes, Guo Zairong knows it very well. There are too many movies in South Korea, and too many movies have always been male-dominated. Originally, this was very normal. Whether it's film or television, or anything else, or the whole world, it's all male-dominated. This is the law of social development, and this is also the law of nature. However, as time passed. Women have become more and more the focus of society, and women have become more and more important.
Even if their status, their identity is still inferior to the male protagonist. However, they are the most eye-catching.
My sassy girlfriend seems to be talking about a sassy girlfriend who is impersonal and unreasonable.
However, on a deeper level, he seems to expose the shift in the entire Korean view of love.
It's simply an anti-man film.
No, it can't be said to be anti-man, it should be an anti-mainstream film.
Thinking of this, Guo Zairong couldn't help but think of his girlfriend. Isn't it just a brutal girlfriend?
I'm done with this film.
There is no hesitation.
Guo Zairong knows the value of this script too well, he has gone beyond the scope of the movie and has a higher level of significance.
"Director Feng, Director Feng, where did you get this script?"
Excited, Guo Zaikong contacted Feng Xiaogang.
"Why, Director Guo, you have taken a fancy to this script."
"Yes, this script is so well written, I really want to meet the screenwriter of this script."
"Director Guo, you asked the right person. I know the editor of this script, but he is only an amateur editor. ”
"Amateur editors? It's no wonder that an amateur editor can still write a script so well. ”
"This is his genius, in fact, before this script, I also took a script he wrote that there are no thieves in the world. Moreover, he is also a businessman. Yes, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a business tycoon. ”
"Amateur editor, businessman, genius...... Oh my God, Director Feng, are you describing a monster? ”
"Haha, Director Guo, he has a nickname, it's called Monster."
After getting Zhang Ning's contact information from Feng Xiaogang, Guo Zairong personally flew from South Korea to China.
When he learned that Zhang Ning was the founder of the domestic penguin company, Guo Zairong was even more surprised.
"Mr. Zhang, I really didn't expect you to be the founder of Penguin."
Looking at Zhang Yao in front of him, Guo Zairong was full of emotion.
"Why, Director Guo, your words seem to mean something else."
"Hehe, maybe Mr. Zhang doesn't know, Mr. Zhang, your penguin company doesn't have a good reputation in our South Korea."
"Oh, that's what you're talking about."
Zhang Ning already knew.
The crackdown on many Korean game companies has nothing to eat, and it is no wonder that Penguin will have a good reputation in South Korea.
"It's okay, in fact, South Korea is not good in the image of the Chinese. Of course, Director Guo, don't mind, I'm not saying that I also discuss you, I'm just talking about things. ”
"Haha, Mr. Zhang is so humorous. Okay, let's talk about the movie. Mr. Zhang, this script of yours is very well written, by the way, did you write a movie script specifically for us in Korea? ”
"I guess so."
Zhang Ning nodded and said.
My savage girlfriend Zhang Ning also showed it to Feng Xiaogang, but Feng Xiaogang didn't approve of it.
Of course, it is normal for Feng Xiaogang not to approve. There is no environment in China like in South Korea, and even if this film appears first in China, it is unlikely to cause a sensation. And only in South Korea, in this South Korea, which is brilliant in love film and television dramas, it is possible to detonate the sensation that I am a savage girlfriend.
"In this way, Mr. Zhang knows our Korean culture very well."
"I know very well that I don't dare to be, but I have only touched it a little. Moreover, I think there are many aspects of the Korean film and television industry. Not only these romance films, but also other historical films, inspirational films...... , you can also dig deeper. ”
Zhang Ning doesn't know much about Korean film and television, but in front of this Korean, Zhang Ning had no choice but to show some experience in watching Korean film and television dramas in later generations, and fool Guo Zairong. And where did Guo Zairong know that Zhang Ning was fooling, and when he heard Zhang Ning talking eloquently, his eyes showed a hint of admiration. Where is this businessman, he is clearly a master of film and television.
Could it be that the most successful businessmen are also the most successful artists?
In other words, the most successful businessmen have completely linked business and art.
In their eyes, whether it is business or otherwise, it can be answered by art.
Guo Zairong's heart was surging, he just wanted to talk to the screenwriter who wrote my sassy girlfriend about the script.
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Ning spoke, Guo Zairong could only listen and couldn't interject at all.
No wonder Feng Xiaogang said before he came, this is a monster.
That's right, he's really a youkai.
"Actually, I just have such a small opinion, it's not good, Director Guo don't be surprised."
"How so, how could it be."
Guo Zaonong was almost embarrassed by this sentence to tears, and he was a little embarrassed.
In his eyes, Zhang Ning was already a master-level person, and he pretended not to understand anything.
"By the way, Director Guo, I will recommend someone to you in terms of heroine."
"Who?"
"Jun Ji-hyun."
"Who Jun Ji-hyun is, I don't seem to recognize this actress."
"Well, for the time being, she hasn't become famous yet, but I think she's the most suitable for the role of my savage girlfriend. Director Guo, you can try it out with her, if it doesn't work, then change it. ”
"Okay, no problem, I'll definitely call her to audition."
The most important character in my savage girlfriend should be Jun Ji-hyun. At the same time, Jun Ji-hyun has also become a goddess in the spotlight because of my savage girlfriend, even after more than ten years, the goddess's demeanor is still undiminished. What Zhang Ning needs is such a goddess. A goddess who can speak for herself in the game and make Korean otaku crazy.
In order to prevent Jun Ji-hyun from passing by him, Zhang Ning found Jun Ji-hyun's contact information on the Internet.
"Hi, Goddess...... No, hi, beauty, hello. ”
Jun Ji-hyun in 2002 is still playing tricks, even though she is very beautiful, she is still playing tricks.
There are so many beautiful people that if you can become a star just by being beautiful, it is too easy to become a star.
Zhang Ning made a phone call to Jun Jixian.
"You are?"
"A week later, director Guo Jae-yong has a film where I am a savage girlfriend needs to be auditioned, and I don't know if Miss Quan is interested."
"yes, that's great, what kind of character is it, does it have lines?"
"Of course there are, not only do you have lines, but you're also the heroine, I don't know if you're interested."
"Hehe, can you have a little bit of technical content, at night, there is another scam call, you are not annoyed."
With a beep, the other party hung up the phone.
