Chapter 100

On the first day of late January, Kang Jae-yong brought good news to Lee Huaiyu, and he finally found a suitable candidate for the movie actor he was looking for.

"Kong Yoo? I seem to be a little impressed... Ah, by the way, it's the male number one of "Prince Coffee No. 1". Li Huaiyu looked at the photo on the email and muttered to himself, "The image is quite consistent, but I don't know if the acting skills are good, it seems that I have to make an appointment to meet." ”

After the script was revised and polished, it was officially named "The Melting Pot", and now in addition to the undecided choice of the male protagonist, the distribution company is also looking for it, because it is a movie that changes by real people and real things, and it is also a very serious theme, those small distribution companies probably dare not take it, for fear that the money will be wasted, Li Huaiyu thought about it, and suddenly remembered a person, so he dialed his phone.

Chen Shuo on the other end of the phone looked a little surprised: "Do you want Star International to be the publisher?" ”

"yes, what do you think?"

"If the script is good, there should be no fewer moviegoers, but this kind of theme is very good & no & wrong & can cause huge social repercussions, and then Star International will not have any mystery at all..."

"As long as it can be successfully issued, I will compensate for all losses."

Chen Shuo thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's meet and talk about the specific matters." ”

Before asking Kong Yoo out, Li Huaiyu first called Yin Enhui and asked about Kong Yoo's specific situation, and by the way, he also revisited the X file five or six years ago, and then found a very interesting thing.

The description of Kong Yoo in the archives is almost always positive, saying that he never goes to bars and nightclubs after work, 24 hours a day. In addition to work. It's the gym and home. I rarely even attend parties, which is similar to Kim Jong Kook, but there is a very funny sentence at the end of the file, saying that Kong Yoo will not be popular in the next ten years.

"It seems that the X-file can't be completely believed, isn't Kong Yoo quite popular after filming "Prince No. 1 Coffee Shop"?"

Under the recommendation of Jiang Zairong, Li Huaiyu met Kong Yun, a man with clear facial features and a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

After an hour of detailed talking. Li Huaiyu was in awe of Kong Yoo, because Kong Yoo said something that many artists were unwilling to say.

"If I can star in this movie, the salary will automatically drop to zero."

Kong Yu is not one of those newcomers who has just debuted and is not well-known, he uses automatic salary reduction to fight for roles, he can be regarded as a first-line artist of the new generation, as long as there is a schedule, as long as the role image is in line, many films are waiting for him to act.

Li Huaiyu saw sincerity in Kong Yoo's eyes, so he made a decision on the spot, the actor is you.

The protagonist of the participating role is determined. But the next supporting roles and tricks really couldn't find anyone, so he simply lost the right to choose to Song Jihyo. Ask her to pull a bunch of friends over to make up the numbers.

Finally, it's Chen Shuo's level.

After not seeing him for a few months, Chen Shuo seems to have lost a few points.

"Busy lately?"

Chen Shuo casually lit a cigarette and said, "It's okay, it's just that the company is large, and I feel that one person's energy is not enough." ”

"You should learn more from me."

"Learn from you? Be a hands-off shopkeeper? Chen Shuo shook his head and said, "There are a lot of people around you who sincerely help you, you don't care about things, naturally someone will take care of it, I'm different, those people are staring at my position all day long, hoping that one day I will suddenly disappear." ”

Chen Shuo's debut method is different from Li Huaiyu's, and his current achievements are all stepping on other people's corpses and bones to fight step by step, so others must not be allowed to covet it, if someone wants to do that, they can only use the same way, that is, to climb up by stepping on his corpse.

"Let's not talk about this, let's talk about movies, how did you suddenly think of making movies?"

Li Huaiyu said with a smile: "Brother Yicheng asked me to do this." ”

Chen Shuo thought for a while and said, "Want to borrow movies to enhance your reputation in the hearts of the people? It's a good idea. ”

"Has Star International ever done a film release?"

"I've done it, but it's rare, and I guess it's a little rusty."

"It's okay, as long as it can be released."

"In that case, then I want to take 30% of the profits."

When Li Huaiyu heard this, he immediately frowned: "Isn't the rule 25%?" ”

Chen Shuo shook his head with a smile and said: "If my estimate of your film is correct, either no one cares about it, or it sells big, if it sells big, I want to take 30% of the profit, if no one cares, I only need 10% of the profit, even if you don't give it, how about it?" ”

"Deal."

Everything seems to be going well, but Li Huaiyu still forgot one thing, that is, the director, a movie, no matter how good the script and actors are, without a good director, it is just as useless.

In the end, it was Kang Jae-yong who helped and found a director with rich experience, Hwang Dong-hyuk, in fact, no matter who Kang Jae-yong found, Li Huaiyu didn't know him, because he was just an ordinary person, and he basically wouldn't ask who the director was after watching the movie, just like eating an egg and never asking who his mother was.

In general, Li Huaiyu is not a qualified producer, he even has his original work for a day, how can he do a good job of supervising the work that requires him to be on the shooting scene every day? So after making all the preparations, he handed over the power to Song Ji-hyo.

It's just that the hug at last year's awards ceremony was mentioned again.

Song Ji-hyo stayed in Baek Chang-so's company for three years, and just after three years, he jumped to TS, and of course the media would not think that this was Kim Tae-song's force, so he could only blame Lee Huai-woo for the reason.

Then, at the acting awards at the end of SBS, Song Ji-hyo's very intimate hug made the already pink two seem even more ambiguous.

However, these are not the most critical, the most critical thing is that the producer of the movie "The Melting Pot" this time is not TS, but Li Huaiyu personally, so people have speculated whether Li Huaiyu wants to use such a movie involving serious social topics to whitewash Song Jihyo, who was criticized two years ago for filming the nineteen-banned movie "Frost Flower Shop"?

As a result, the relationship between the two seems to be even more inexplicable.

When he saw these reports, Li Huaiyu was lying comfortably in Park Renjing's arms, eating sweet and delicious apples.

"Brother Huaiyu, your reputation really stinks, and if you invest in a movie casually, you will be said to have ulterior motives."

Li Huaiyu sighed helplessly: "People, you just can't be famous, otherwise trouble will follow." ”

A hint of envy flashed in Park Renjing's eyes: "Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, some people are going crazy if they want to be famous." ”

Li Huaiyu was stunned: "Aren't you guys doing well now?" ”

"Didn't talk about me." Park In-jingjiao smiled and said, "By the way, has Ji-yeon been looking for you recently?" ”

"No, we met that night at the Acting Awards, and we had a supper together."

Park Injing wrinkled her nose and said, "The little girl has been very strange lately, and she has been talking to herself when she was recording the show." ”

"What show? The one who takes care of the kids? ”

"That's right." Park In-jeong looked at Lee Huai-woo pointedly, "Ji-yeon is the youngest, but she is the most serious when she does the show, as if she is not doing the show." ”

Li Huaiyu was amused by her tongue twister: "Since it's a show, of course you have to be serious, otherwise who will invite you next time?" ”

Park Renjing leaned down and whispered softly in Li Huaiyu's ear: "I don't think so, the little girl probably has a spring heart and wants to be a real mother." ”

Li Huaiyu didn't know how to refute, so he could only bite Park Injing's lip, and then carried her into the guest room when her face was flushed (to be continued......
