As soon as Cui Dongxun's words came out, Cui Zhengyuan's appreciation for him immediately rose to a new level.

Without him, it's too good to come.

In other words, Cui Dongxun is very good at figuring out the thoughts of the superiors and can correct his position well.

You will feel very comfortable with such people.

Perhaps this is why he, as an independent director, is able to thrive in the complex Korean film industry.

However, appreciation is appreciation, and in the face of conditions, Cui Zhengyuan will not be polite.

"There are indeed some requirements, the first one is that I have a few characters in this film."

"This ......" Choi Dongxun was a little embarrassed.

It's not that he didn't expect Cui Zhengyuan to ask for a role, in fact, it is a very common phenomenon for producers, directors and crews to ask for roles.

There are not only interests in this, but also unspoken rules.

Many actresses are through guò producers to achieve the goal of being on top, and in order to attract investment, the director and crew can only turn a blind eye.

Choi Dong-hoon has long been prepared to lose several roles, but there are also some difficulties.

Characters and characters are different, and some characters are important and can even affect the quality of the film. And some roles belong to the type of insignificant, anyone can play them.

If Choi Jung-won asks for the latter, then of course Choi Dong-hoon doesn't matter, and he can just use it to be a favor.

But if it's the former, it will be troublesome, and it may even ruin his hard work.

Cui Zhengyuan saw his thoughts, and said with a slight smile: "Don't worry, I ask that the character is not the protagonist, not even the second male." ”

As soon as he heard this, Cui Dongxun immediately felt the pressure on his body lighten.

Then he said a little embarrassedly: "Let Cui Zhengyuan laugh, this movie is too important to me." ”

Cui Zhengyuan didn't care about his sensitivity. He opened the script to himself, pointed to several of the characters and said, "I plan to let Jun Ji-hyun play the role of anycall." And Zampano is played by Kim so-hyun. In addition, there is the role of Johnny, which will be played by a newcomer from A.P China. Director Cui, what do you think? ”

What else?

When Choi Jung-won mentions Jun Ji-hyun's name, Choi Dong-hoon is left to agree to one path.

At this time, he had no intention of inviting Jun Ji-hyun to star. The main reason is that the male and female protagonists he expects are too big.

Let Jun Ji-hyun, a first-line actress who has been popular for more than ten years, play the second female lead, he still can't imagine it.

Think about the lineup you planned, if you add a goddess-level figure like Jun Ji-hyun. If he couldn't make a fire, he would have to jump into the sea to apologize.

Jun Ji-hyun and Kim so-hyun are both owned by A.P Company, and they were originally in the lineup of this film. Cui Zhengyuan asked for the quota, which can be regarded as respecting the original version.

And Johnny for this role. The original actor was Zeng Guoxiang.

This person is the son of the famous Xiangjiang actor Zeng Zhiwei, and he is a relatively low-key second-generation star in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Although Cui Zhengyuan has a good relationship with Zeng Zhiwei, he also worked together in "Infernal Affairs" back then. But when encountering such a high-profile blockbuster, you must consider your own actors.

Originally, there was no suitable actor on A.P's side of China, whether it was Huang Bo or Feng Shaofeng, it was impossible for them to play such an insignificant role in the film.

In other words, if Huang Bo is playing, there are really not many Korean actors who can be ranked in front of him.

Coincidentally. Not long ago, A.P China just recruited a young actor to bring in.

Knowing that there was such a small fresh meat joining, Cui Zhengyuan was also very surprised. So after a detailed understanding, he understood what was going on.

What about this little actor. It's called Yang Yang.

The name is very common, but when it comes to history, it is definitely very scary.

He graduated from the 2003 Dance Department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Art Academy, and his first work after his debut was the 2008 version of "Dream of the Red Mansion".

What is the status of "Dream of Red Mansions" in the history of Chinese literature and film and television. Anyone who understands understands.

It can be said that Yang Yang's start can definitely envy countless people.

As for Yang Yang's ability to join A.P China, it has to start with his unit.

Because he graduated from a military academy. Yang Yang's identity at the beginning was still a soldier. But after becoming an actor, this identity is too restrictive.

Therefore, as early as the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions", he wanted to enter the brokerage company for development.

happened to be filming "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party", he met Han Geng, who also participated.

The two didn't know each other well, but they were both relatively young, so they quickly chatted together. When Yang Yang talked about his troubles, Han Geng recommended A.P China.

When he learned that this company also had Huang Bo, Yao Chen, Feng Shaofeng, Zhao Liying and others, Yang Yang was also concerned.

Later, he got through the relationship with his mentor Li Shaohong, and finally got in touch with A.P China, and smoothly changed his identity and became a veritable actor.

Cui Zhengyuan knows that this child has unlimited potential and has a lot to do in the entertainment industry in the future. It is also a great appreciation for A.P China to be able to sign him.

He also instructed Li Anhao to be sure to provide Yang Yang with more resources so that he could develop better.

Therefore, this time when he encountered the Sino-Korean cooperation "League of Thieves", Cui Zhengyuan thought of the opportunity to brush Yang Yang's face.

Regarding the starring role of this film, Choi Jung-won also asked Choi Dong-hoon, and when he learned that the candidate was unexpectedly the same as in his previous life, he was completely relieved.

Kim Yoon-seok, Lee Jung-jae, Kim Hye-so, Oh Da-so and others are all the most powerful actors in the Korean entertainment industry, and there is absolutely no problem with the box office appeal of their combination.

"Executive Cui, what is the second requirement?" Seeing that Choi Jung-won did not set up obstacles in terms of actors, Choi Dong-hoon also relaxed.

In fact, as long as the producer does not interfere with the filming of the film and the actors, the director will be very happy.

But even so, hearing Choi Jung-won's second request, Choi Dong-hoon still felt as if he had encountered a joke.

Cui Zhengyuan's expression was particularly sincere, but his words were very thunderous, and he didn't look like the producer said it at all. "The second requirement is not difficult, that is, when Director Cui is filming, he can't be shoddy in order to catch up with the construction schedule. It's okay to slow down, but we must keep improving and show the level of production of our Korean films. ”

Cui Dongxun went directly to Sparta, even if he opened his brain, he would never have imagined that Cui Zhengyuan's request was so strange.

Nima, what's going on?

Shouldn't the producer ask the director to work overtime to shoot in a hurry to save costs? How can this still allow you to take your time?

Not to mention Choi Dong-hoon, if you change to any director, I'm afraid you won't be able to figure it out.

In fact, the reason why Cui Zhengyuan made this request was because of the memory of his previous life.

The filming of "League of Thieves" in that time and space was originally scheduled to be released at the end of 2011 or the Chinese New Year, but it was finally postponed to July 2012 due to the complexity of filming and post-production.

Choi Jung-won was afraid that Choi Dong-hoon would ignore the quality of the film in order to catch up with the schedule.

He has seen the movie "League of Thieves", the cast is very strong, and it is okay to say that action blockbusters are passable.

But the action scenes in it obviously did not achieve the effect he expected, which can be regarded as unsatisfactory.

Now that the film is being invested by him, of course he has to strive for perfection.

Anyway, C.J Group is not short of money, and it is more important to develop the Chinese market on the basis of Sino-Korean cooperation.

And a sincere large-scale zuò movie is undoubtedly more effective in attracting audiences and opening up the market.

Anyway, for Cui Zhengyuan's request, Cui Dongxun was surprised, of course, he smiled.

He is a great director, and he is even more paranoid about the quality of his films.

Originally, he was afraid that he would not be able to withstand Cui Zhengyuan's strength and had to sacrifice the quality of the film. Well, now Cui Zhengyuan, an investor, is more laid-back than him.

In this way, he is more confident that he will make the film a blockbuster that is unique in the history of Korean cinema.

Poor Choi Dong-hoon would never have imagined at this time that in less than two years, there would be a "Ming Liang" in the history of Korean films.

The record broken and held by "League of Thieves" was brutally rushed by "Mingliang" before it was hot.

Choi Jung-won believes in Choi Dong-hoon's strength and is more confident in the strength of the actors. So after a brief discussion, he handed over the matter of making zuò to Choi Dong-hoon.

And the first thing he did was to call Kim so-hyun to his office.

Strictly speaking, the rise of Kim so-hyun began during this period. "League of Thieves" and the upcoming preparation of "The Moon Embracing the Sun" made Kim so-hyun a first-line actor in South Korea.

The subsequent "Secret and Great" and "My Love from the Star" completely made Kim so-hyun a signboard and firmly marched on the road to becoming a top actor.

Among the four young actors of A.P Company, Kim so-hyun, who was the weakest at this time, became the first to start showing domineering.

For the pillar of the company's male actors, Cui Zhengyuan can't care too much.

Kim so-hyun didn't know how wonderful his fate would be, and he was excited and apprehensive about Choi Jung-won's solo summoning.

Even the hand that knocked on the door trembled like an epileptic person.

Hearing the increasingly calm and majestic voice inside, Kim so-hyun took a deep breath, and then walked in under Kim Yuhan's curious gaze.

This is both an ordinary door and a door of life.

What was behind the door, he didn't know at this time. But he had no choice but to walk in resolutely.

The rest is left to life and fate. (To be continued......)
