Chapter 142: THE HOST (1)

Seoul.

Every time it comes to the end of the year, it is a time for major fans to get excited. During this time period, a hundred flowers are blooming, so that fans can feast their eyes.

Major theaters have hung up big posters, and all kinds of big-budget movies have announced their existence in a dazzling manner.

This is a special New Year schedule in South Korea at the beginning of 2006.

More than ten days ago, the South Korean government announced that it would cut the screen quota, and less than two days later, the South Korean film protests broke out, and more than 100 artists began to "ban the mouth," and there were many patriots wearing masks and headbands to march, and Chungmuro was surrounded by hundreds of demonstrators every day.

This New Year, which will be known as the early spring winter in the history of Korean cinema in the future, is that after this big change, Korean films have really begun to move towards glory. It also began the clarion call for foreign sieges.

The cold war led by the government and the film industry association, and the joining of several major film companies was in full swing, and no one could predict who would win and who would lose.

Ordinary movie fans don't care about these, they only look at the Christmas schedule, cinemas, media, and the Internet, and the three-pronged publicity has made this Christmas schedule pungent with gunsmoke.

Lee Joon-gi, "The King's Man," starring Jung Jin-young, first lit the fuse.

The poster is an ambiguous two-man affair that shocks the world, and the four big characters of the king's man are like four sharp swords stabbed on the poster.

"I don't think I'm going to see it." A male college student who was interviewed at the entrance of the theater looked at the poster and said, "I like the film directed by Choi Seok-hwan very much, but the content is ......."

Before he could finish speaking, his girlfriend next to him screamed, "Go and see, go and see......"

As of an hour before the day of release, no one knew what kind of miracle the film would cause.

Two months later, the second movie in South Korean history to be watched by more than 10 million people is about to appear, and that is starring Lee Joon-gi, a little-known artist, Wang's man.

However, on the third day, all the exhibitors were stunned, the director was not a big director, and the production cost was only 4.5 billion, but it ushered in two million people to watch the movie!

The exhibitor's lips trembled with excitement, and they had a premonition that the second "fish" was coming!

In the two weeks after its release, the number of moviegoers of Wang's Man exceeded 3 million! At the same time, the original stage play "Er" was very popular, and the national tour was full, and it instantly became the first in the annual stage drama sales list in the form of coming from behind!

After two and a half weeks of screening, President Roh Moo-hyun personally watched the film and praised "a flower-like historical drama." ”

No one could have imagined that just a few actors would beat the "Typhoon!" released at the same time, directed by Guo Jingze, starring Korean actor Jang Dongjian, Lee Jung-jae, and Lee Mi-yeon. ”

No one expected this result, and even the typhoon was a fiasco!

I expected to sweep the Christmas schedule with the momentum of a typhoon, but I didn't expect to be swept by others with the momentum of a typhoon!

This dark horse that suddenly appeared began to shuffle this schedule in advance.

Several major film and television companies were silent, exhibitors were silent, and the entire Korean film and television industry was frightened by the news.

It seems that it is only a matter of time before the "fish" surpasses the unprecedented in history.

Who else can stop it this Christmas schedule?

There may only be one left.

Everyone's eyes were on the date table.

2006 Leap No. 25, directed by Bong Joon-ho, starring Lin Xiao, Jung Da-bin, Park Hae-il, Byun Hee-bong, produced by Seongyulan Co., Ltd., Hanjiang Monster!

Sudden pressure, like a tsunami, rushed in.

Lin Xiao hadn't rested for a few days.

He sat in the room, looked at the starry sky outside the house, slowly sipped his tea, and was silent for a long time.

Christina was right next to him, but she didn't talk to him, anyone can imagine how stressed he is now.

The first film in the world to be a major player, which was released out of sync around the world, and its premiere in South Korea is about to be greatly challenged!

With "fish" in front and "king's man" in the back, the Hanjiang Monster is the finale of the Christmas schedule, and the prospect is very dangerous.

"I made a mistake......" Lin Xiao said slowly after a long time.

"It's not your mistake, no one can predict the outcome of a film." Christina comforted, "No one expected that a movie with an investment of 4.5 billion won would have a social effect, and the president personally watched the movie." ”

Lin Xiao didn't say anything, he felt that he had made a mistake, because he really couldn't remember the Korean box office in 05, and Wang's man, this love movie dressed in the skin of a historical drama, he chose to ignore it automatically.

He really didn't remember that this film appeared in 05, and the Han River monster in 06 was just missed with it.

Because of his return, a lot of things have changed.

In the past two years, two movies watched by tens of millions of people have appeared, as if sounding the clarion call for Korean film reform.

This mistake caused the second and third movies in the history of South Korea to appear at the end of 05 at the same time!

The reason why he didn't say it was because Christina didn't know how much influence Wang's man had.

Among the TOP10 Korean movies, the only historical drama has not even reached the point of "Looking" that Song Kang-ho received rave reviews in the future, and it has laid a real foundation for South Korea's "beautiful men"!

05 years ago, Korean artists walked in an avant-garde style, but after 05 years, the so-called "beautiful men," neutral men, emerged in the entertainment industry in an endless stream, all thanks to the king's men!

In the year when he was reborn and returned, this trend did not change, which shows the deep influence of the king's man!

This is a film that changed the national aesthetic! The status is almost the same as that of the Han River monster! In the TOP10, below the Han River monster is the king's man! No matter what happens!

Bong Joon-ho didn't call him, but now he is calling, but the two of them soothe the wounds, and they are sad when they open and close their mouths.

This dark horse has evolved to the point of Godzilla!

He is not familiar with Korean customs, but he really doesn't know this kind of national historical duel national spirit, two movies watched by tens of millions of people, this kind of collision like Mars hitting the earth, who has the upper hand!

Just then, his phone rang.

"Hello?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and it was a long time before a voice came "It's me." ”

"Bongdao?" Lin Xiao was relieved, just now he said that the other party didn't call, but now he is finally going to call.

"Tomorrow, the Han River Monster will premiere." The other party's voice was very low.

"Mentoring." Lin Xiao took a deep breath, "I admit that Wang's man is very good, whether it is the shooting technique, the set or the acting skills, but the Han River monster is not bad either!" ”

"Have you seen it?"

"I've seen it, and I think that the two are movies of the same level, if they can reach 10 million viewers, then the Han River monster can also reach it!"

On the phone, there was silence for a long time before a laugh came out, "Okay, I forgot what I was calling for, so goodbye." ”

The other party simply hung up the phone.

Lin Xiao put down the phone, he understood Bong Junhao's mentality very well, he just wanted to cheer up with the leading actor and make the final communication, after all, Wang's man's achievements were too amazing, and the Yingxing Club couldn't sit still.

If the investment of 10 billion yuan is compared with less than half of the investment, where will the face of the Yingxing Club be placed? If an international artist like Lin Xiao is compared to a little-known artist, where will his face go? If Bong Joon-ho is compared to Choi Seok-hwan, where will his face go?

No one can afford to lose!

Now all kinds of media are singing praises for the king's man, known as "the most touching historical drama in South Korea's history" and "the second fish in Korean film and television!" ”

And the monster of the Han River, not to mention that it is not favored by everyone, but now everyone's eyes have fallen on the king's man.

After all, Zhang Dongjian's fiasco is ahead, and the Hanjiang monster is starring Chinese.

"Tomorrow!" He took a deep breath and rested in bed.

January 24th, night.

In front of all the movie theaters, the king's man was withdrawn to the side, but still rare posters of the same size were retained, and on the main seat, hung "Monster! ”

In the gloomy water, a long tail stretched out and pulled a little girl into the water.

The frightened face on the girl's face, the Yuanxiao Bridge in the distance, as if everything was so real.

The two big characters "7305" on it are like tails, like the ghost of a horror movie, lingering.

The poster column of almost every theater has been divided between the monster of the Han River and the man of the king, the former is a movie that is about to create the next 10 million miracles, and the latter is a masterpiece of 10 billion investment, "Memories of Murder" director Bong Joon-ho and international artists!

On the Shuguang Network, according to Lin Xiao's regulations, all the advertisements for the monsters of the Han River have been replaced, and in the media, the Yingxing Club has also said hello, and for a while, the propaganda of the monster has overwhelmed the man of the king who is in the limelight.

"Smack!" With one hand closing the web page, a group of boys sit in front of the computer with basketballs and teeth bared.

"What should I do?" One boy spoke, "My girlfriend wants to see the king's man, but I want to see the monster." ”

"Tsk, don't show off, Brother Zai Zheng! Don't you have a girlfriend? A boy with dyed red hair scoffed, "What's so great about women! Let's talk about the five-person party of Tanguo and spend the winter vacation together, this is the movie, can you watch the king's man? Won't you regurgitate? ”

"That's right! Let's look at the monsters! The memories of killing are so classic, and the monster is definitely not bad! ”

That's the difference between a man's and a woman's thinking.

"Look at the propaganda on the dawn, how fascinating! That title appealed to me! Asia is full of ghosts, ghosts, and whatever, and my favorite is this kind of alien movie! You can't run this time! ”

"I've booked all the tickets, do you want me to refund the tickets?"

The boy who was called Jae-jeong touched his head in embarrassment, "Hyun-joo will kill my ......"

"Less! Do you show affection again? "Don't go! Do you want to be expelled from the Five? ”

"Okay......" Jae-jeong said with a headache, "anyway, the man who is watching the king now...... The monster should be good to buy a ticket......"

On the eve of the premiere, many students were already arguing.

Some people admire the man who wants to see the king, while some people choose monsters.

The girls almost all chose the monster's opponent and took a large number of boys along the way.

The collision of tens of millions of moviegoers, the prospect is like a fog, and no one can see clearly.
