Chapter 1770 Project Initiation
Despite his resentment towards Choi Jung-won, Son Ye-jin was not stupid enough to show it on the spot.
And what Cui Zhengyuan said is right, in such a crime movie with a heavy theme, adding such a glamorous scene will be inconsistent with the overall style.
It's not that Park Hoon-jung doesn't understand this, but it's rare to have Choi Jung-won star in his movie, and the other heroine is Son Ye-jin, who is popular in South Korea.
How to achieve the most attractive degree is also a problem that he needs to consider.
But since Cui Zhengyuan is against it, he has nothing to do, so he naturally follows the good and deletes this part from the script.
Other than that, everyone else basically has no opinion on the plot.
Because the movie is a group drama, everyone's role is very important. Although the nominal protagonists are Choi Jung-won and Lee Jung-jae, who can shine depends on the acting strength of each person.
After the script workshop, another important thing is the play.
In film and television works, the most important part is the interaction between actors. Therefore, when the scene of the drama conflict breaks out, it is up to the actors involved to interact with the needs of the plot.
Group plays, rehearsal here at C.J Film and Television Productions. But for a separate scene, it depends on the actors to find time to play against each other.
Cui Zhengyuan exchanged mobile phone numbers with everyone, and agreed that they could play against each other after making preparations, and the meeting was dismissed.
Son Ye-jin's eyes were like torches, always staring at Choi Jung-won, thinking about ways to get back into the field.
Although the bed scene in the film has been deleted, the kiss scene is essential.
After all, the two are lovers to husband and wife, and then to enemies, and a proper kiss scene helps to show the relationship between the two.
So this kind of separate play part is naturally indispensable for the cooperation between the two.
The beauty has a clever plan in her heart and has found a way to regain her dignity.
It's a pity that Choi Jung-won doesn't have long eyes behind him, and he can't see Son Ye-jin's sinister smile. When he walked away, he was talking and laughing with Song Jihyo who had caught up.
Although everyone was just sitting together in a meeting. But on the occasion of work, Song Zhixiao is also inconvenient to catch up with him.
It wasn't until the end of the show that Zhizhi seized the opportunity and walked out with Cui Zhengyuan.
Song Jihyo has debuted for many years, and his star journey has not been smooth. Even nude scenes like "Frost Flower Shop" have been done, and the partners are popular actors like Zhu Zhenmo and Zhao Yincheng, but the result is still unsuccessful.
It wasn't until "Runningman" was created that Cui Zhengyuan appointed her to join, and she became a popular artist.
Therefore, although there is no usual contact, but for Cui Zhengyuan. Song Ji-hyo always has the grace of knowing in his heart.
In front of Cui Zhengyuan, this bad Zhixiao is almost as well-behaved as his sister.
"Generally, it is not easy to cooperate with you this time. By your side, I'm going to learn how to shock the world. Song Jihyo complimented sweetly.
Cui Zhengyuan laughed, "How can it be so exaggerated, although there is a basic theory of acting, but if you want to do the best, you have to rely on everyone's understanding." The method that works for me. Not necessarily for you. There's no trick to this thing, and honing is the best way to do it. ”
Acting skills are purely honed by time. Strictly speaking, there is such a thing as a natural actor. It doesn't exist.
Superstars like Leslie Cheung and Choi Min-sik have also spent a long time before they became gods of acting.
People who aspire to become actors, the most taboo is to be impetuous. Counting on one day to become famous.
Even if such a person has been filming for decades, he will still be criticized.
When I was young, I was able to eat with a passable appearance, but it took a long time. will definitely be eliminated by the cruel showbiz.
can endure loneliness, endure hardships, and use your heart to finally become a qualified actor.
In Cui Zhengyuan's view, Song Zhixiao can bear hardships and stand hard work, but unfortunately the situation is not good, and today's low popularity is already the best she can develop.
Taking it a step further, there will be no hope of becoming a top big-name actress like Ha Ji Won, Son Ye Jin, Jun Ji Hyun, Jeon Do-yeon, and Kim Hye so.
So in the face of her request for advice, Cui Zhengyuan just said something ambiguously. As for whether the other party can listen to it, he can't do anything.
Unless Song Ji-hyo can say goodbye to the pompous "Runningman", let go of his current popularity, and bury his head in studying acting, he can expect to make any progress.
When he turned around, he happened to see Cui Minzhi also walking out of Shi Shiran, so he said: "I have some things to discuss with Cui Minzhi's seniors, Miss Song Jihyo, let's see you when we play." ”
Song Jihyo was a little disappointed and regretted that he missed the opportunity to communicate with Choi Jung-won. But she didn't dare to disobey the other party's intentions, and hurriedly said: "Then please please, I'll see you later." ”
After saying that, she regretfully took the first step.
Cui Minzhi saw that Cui Zhengyuan was waiting for him, and walked over with a smile, "Changchang, what kind of wind made you wait for me?" ”
Cui Zhengyuan also smiled heartily, "It's a strong wind, a big east wind." Without you, Cui Minzhi's predecessors, this wind can't blow anything. But with you, it's different. It is not far off to soar to 90,000 miles. ”
Cui Minzhi shook his head and said depressedly: "I know that you Cui Changzhi has profound Chinese skills, and you can't drag words like this." I can't understand it, who knows if you praise me or scold me? ”
Choi Jung-won put his arm around his shoulders, and the two walked like conjoined babies. "Come on, who dares to scold you. It's a really good thing, and it's not something you can't do. ”
Choi Min-sik is very famous, but he is only a full-time actor. Now that Cui Zhengyuan has found his head, it is obvious that there is a problem with some new works.
As long as there is a play, an old actor like him will be very happy. "Tell me, what admirable works did you come up with this time?"
Cui Zhengyuan glanced around and found that there was no one nearby, so he spoke: "This time, it's a big drama, the scale is bigger than "League of Thieves" and "New World", and you need to be in charge of it for a long time." ”
Cui Minzhi smacked his lips and asked suspiciously, "Is it really going to be filmed in "Mingliang"?" ”
South Korea's film and television industry is not big, and he is an old man in the circle, so there will be more or less news channels.
The Battle of Mingliang has an immeasurable place in the hearts of South Koreans, so the news that someone is preparing to put this historical event on the screen has naturally spread a long time ago.
After all, it was a limited victory in Korea's history to resist aggression, so for hundreds of years, Yi Sunsin, who led the victory in the naval battle of Myeongyang, has been deified.
In the history of Korean film and television production, there has never been a shortage of eulogies for Yi Sunsin, and his story has been publicized in three layers and three layers outside.
But to make an epic masterpiece like "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Lord of the Rings" has discouraged many people.
After all, Yi Sunsin is a national hero and has an undesecrated status in the hearts of South Koreans. Once the shooting is not good, they can become national sinners.
From the perspective of film production capabilities, C.J Group is the only film company that can produce such a film that meets the needs of the people.
Coincidentally, the movie "Ming Liang" in the previous life was also produced and distributed by C.J Group.
To make such a war blockbuster, a logical, poetic story is an indispensable foundation.
Because of Choi Jung-won's presence, as soon as the story of "Mingliang" was written, it was appreciated by director Kim Han-min, screenwriter Jeon Cheol-hong, producer Jung Byung-wook, Kim Joo-kyung and others, and was unanimously approved.
In addition to the story, the next step is the filming technique.
But for any blockbuster, gorgeous special effects are an indispensable condition.
Although the historical Myeongyang is not as magnificent as the Korean history books depict, in order to promote the national spirit and set off a patriotic upsurge among the people, it is necessary to make a shocking effect.
And in this regard, the technical capabilities of the C.J Group, that is no problem.
Since Choi Jung-won took office, he has always grasped the film production technology of the C.J Group and always paid attention to it. Therefore, the level of film production is definitely the best in Asia.
In the end, the rest is also a matter that everyone is concerned about, that is, the actor of Yi Sunsin.
Even if the crew of this movie has not yet been prepared, everyone already knows that the future influence is not trivial. Therefore, who will play the greatest national hero in South Korean history has become a question that must be carefully considered.
The producer, director, and screenwriter respectively proposed many famous actors, and even Choi Jung-won was listed.
After all, when it comes to the achievements of Korean actors, no one can compare with him. The actor with the highest status plays the greatest actor in Korea, no matter how you look at it, it is the best way.
It's a pity that Cui Zhengyuan is self-aware and knows that he can't be suitable for this role.
Lack of age is the biggest disadvantage, and no matter how brilliant the makeup technique is, it is difficult to make up for this shortcoming.
Secondly, his temperament is not good, his appearance is delicate and cold, and he does not look like the image of a hero who worries about the country and the people and has experienced vicissitudes of life.
So after the problem was reported to him, he made a decision to let Choi Min-sik play the role.
Choi Min-sik is the self-esteem of Korean acting and the winner of the Cannes Best Actor. The acting skills are superb, both physical and spiritual, and the appearance is consistent.
If he can't, then this movie won't be made at all.
happened to discuss the plot with Choi Min-sik today, so Choi Jung-won took the opportunity to inform him of the situation. So that he can prepare early, study some historical materials, and grasp the essence of performing Yi Sunsin.
For a big-budget movie like "Mingliang", it takes half a year just to prepare for it. In addition, technical reserves, exploration of filming locations, rehearsals of the crew, and coordination with the outside world are all tedious and indispensable procedures.
According to Cui Zhengyuan's estimate, the film is now starting to be established, and it will take at least two years to finally be released. (To be continued......)
