Even the relationship between Cui Zhengyuan and Ju Li is in the clouds, making it difficult to see clearly, let alone the matter between him and Yu Li.

Even within their group, no one knew about the relationship between the two.

So the contest between Cui Zhengyuan and Yu Li finally came to an end in silence.

There is no doubt that Choi Jung-won won by a big margin.

Yuli eventually surrenders to his power and wealth, and willingly becomes his outer chamber.

After getting the backyard done, Cui Zhengyuan finally concentrated his energy and once again attacked everywhere in the entertainment industry to continue to fight for the consolidation of the A.P dynasty.

At this time, there was a movie script in front of him.

Of course, it's no surprise that C.J Group receives countless film scripts every year.

After all, it is the largest film production and distribution company in South Korea, so Korean filmmakers will first look at this place when they set up projects and seek investment.

Only when the C.J Group refuses, they will go to showbox or Rakuten in turn.

Of course, these are not the homemade films of these big studios.

The problem is, there aren't many homemade movies from these big companies every year. More often than not, they adopt an investment model, as long as they fancy a script with potential, they will invest and eventually get income from the box office of the movie.

Generally speaking, the person in charge of reviewing the potential of the script is not Choi Jung-won.

His status is too high, and he has a lot of work, and he is rarely responsible for such specific work.

Only when the person in charge is undecided, will the script be submitted and let him make the final decision.

Who called Choi Jung-won's Eye of God is well-known in South Korea, but any work that is approved by him, whether it is a movie, a TV series, or music, there is nothing that is not popular.

This time too, C.J Group received a film script seeking investment. But the person in charge after several verifications. None of them are sure of the final profitability.

But I was very moved by this script, and finally handed it over to Cui Zhengyuan.

The script was in front of him, and Cui Zhengyuan didn't read it for the first time, but browsed the reason submitted by the person in charge.

The reasons given by the person in charge are also sufficient in Cui Zhengyuan's opinion.

First of all, the first point is that the investment amount of this film is not small, and it is definitely unique among Korean films so far.

Another is that it involves transnational cooperation, which adds a lot of difficulty to the filming of the film. If one is not good, it is likely to lead to miscarriage.

Because the policies and industry customs of each country are different, there are always various problems that arise during the filming process.

In the history of cinema, it is not uncommon for co-productions to end up aborting.

There is also a problem that has been flagged by the person in charge. Obviously, in his opinion, there is still ambiguity about whether this is a problem, that is, the actors' salaries are too high.

Seeing this, Cui Zhengyuan became interested.

Generally speaking, there are only two reasons why the salary is too high. One of them is that the actors are too big, and if they don't give such a high salary, they won't act.

But correspondingly, the big-name actors who dare to ask for such a high salary are basically the guarantee of the box office.

This person in charge has also been investing in films for many years. It is impossible not to understand this.

So in Cui Zhengyuan's view, if there is a problem at this point, then it cannot be in this regard.

Another reason for the high salary is that there are too many big-name actors in the film.

Choi Jung-won was curious. What kind of lineup did this investment-seeker list so much that the person in charge who was used to seeing big scenes was frightened like this.

After reading the reason, the next thing is naturally the time to browse the script.

The name of the script, of course, is what catches the eye.

《TheThieves》

Seeing this English name, Cui Zhengyuan pouted. Very disdainful.

It's obviously a script created by Koreans, so what do you have to get an English name for, and pretend to be high-minded?

But then he realized what the name meant. The corners of his mouth immediately smiled.

After the name, there is the name of the script writer.

According to the tradition of the Korean film industry, directors are generally involved in the creation of scripts. So when listing the names of screenwriters, if there are two screenwriters, then the director is usually the first in the list.

And for this script, there is only one screenwriter, which means that the director and screenwriter are shoulder-to-shoulder. It also shows that this person is also looking for investment.

Here, Cui Zhengyuan is a little more serious.

Although South Korea's film and television industry is huge and has many employees, it also depends on faces. Whenever a big-name director or screenwriter is looking for investment, it's easier than for someone who is unknown.

The name of the screenwriter column is Choi Dong-hoon, seeing this, Choi Jung-won's last worries are gone, and the determination to invest is completely established.

In the Korean film industry, Choi Dong-hoon is definitely a radiant person.

He debuted in 2000 as an assistant director in the film "Tears".

But then his first work was the amazing "Seoul Robbery".

With this film, Choi Dong-hoon won the 41st Korean Film Daejong Award for Newcomer Director and the 25th Korean Blue Dragon Film Award for Newcomer Director.

In his subsequent career, Cui Dongxun also continued to make excellent works, such as "Lao Qian" and "Tian Yuzhi" are all classics.

It can be said that in the Korean film industry, Choi Dongxun's production can be regarded as a guarantee of quality and box office.

The plot of the script in front of me is also very simple and clear at a glance.

Five skilled, thieves are mentored by former gang bosses and team up with four members of a Chinese crime syndicate to steal the diamond "Tears of the Sun" hidden in the Macau casino.

The two groups of centaurs are ostensibly allies, but secretly they are intriguing for the exclusive possession of diamonds.

Needless to say, this is the movie "League of Thieves", which gathers the cooperation of many big-name actors from China and South Korea.

For such a movie, Cui Zhengyuan has no reason to give up investment.

And what prompted him to make this decision was, of course, the box office number of this movie in the original time and space.

More than 12.98 million moviegoers directly broke the highest box office in South Korea and continuously refreshed 17 box office records in Korean film history.

If such a film is not worth investing in, what other film is worth it?

The only thing that surprised him was that now this script was actually in his hands.

In his impression, in the original time and space, the distribution company of this film was Showbox.

It seems that in that time and space, Choi Dongxun must have also sought investment from C.J Group. But I don't know why the C.J Group missed the film, and finally cheapened the showbox.

But now, now that it's in your own hands, there's nothing to do with showbox.

After making a decision, Choi Jung-won immediately called the person in charge, informing him to get in touch with Choi Dong-hoon, and personally caught the matter in his own hands.

Receiving a reply from C.J Group, Choi Dong-hoon was very surprised.

Although in his setting, the film is definitely a big investment, and C.J Group agrees that it is nothing.

The only thing that surprised him was that Cui Zhengyuan, the big guy, actually jumped out and participated in person.

I haven't heard Cui Zhengyuan personally involved in film production for many years, and many people are about to forget his achievements in this area.

However, the impact of this news on Choi Dongxun can only be described by ecstasy.

He himself is a very famous and appealing director in South Korea, and the actors gathered in the preparatory film are also the most appealing actors in South Korea.

Now even Choi Jung-won, an authority on Korean films, is involved, and if this movie is not a hit, it will be unreasonable.

Cui Dongxu, who was overjoyed, did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately rushed to Cui Zhengyuan's office in person and had a heated discussion with the big guy.

"Director Cui, I have admired my name for a long time, but it is the first time we have met, what a slack." Facing this great director, Cui Zhengyuan looked like a corporal of Lixian.

His kindness and kindness made Choi Dongxun feel useful. "Executive Cui, you are too polite, if you want to say that I am the one who has admired for a long time. My admiration for your achievements is not long-term admiration, but worship. It is the honor of my life to have your support this time. ”

Choi Dong-hoon put his posture very low, trying to get closer to Choi Jung-won.

He is an independent director, and CaperFilm, the production company behind League of Thieves, is his film studio.

Although his fame and talent are very important bargaining chips, there are only two or three powerful film distribution companies in South Korea, so he has been harassed and coerced a lot.

If you can have a good relationship with Cui Zhengyuan, it will be equivalent to getting a green pass.

With the relationship between Korea's largest film production, distribution and theater company, it is certain that his career will be smooth sailing.

Choi Dongxun's talent, Choi Jung-won also appreciates it very much. So he is also happy to accept the other party's affectionate attitude.

Although the two met for the first time, they were so hot that they were like old friends.

Returning to the topic of film production, Choi Jung-won first expressed his attitude on behalf of the C.J Group. "I have carefully studied this script, and it has great commercial value, so Director Cui can rest assured in terms of investment. I promise here, but what you ask for will be what you need. ”

These words made Cui Dongxun excited, rubbing his hands and eager to start work immediately.

Korean film companies are generally stingy and budget-conscious when it comes to investing. Most of the time, when the director is shooting, he will be limited by insufficient funds and do not achieve the effect he wants.

At least this is the most bold investor Cui Dongxun has met since he started filming.

However, he is also very vigilant, knowing that Cui Zhengyuan is so generous, he will not be without requirements. "If Executive Director Cui has any advice, please feel free to speak up." (To be continued......)
