Chapter 121: Joker

Pass!

This sound, like a burst of spring thunder rolling through the audience, everyone's heart couldn't help but jump a few times.

The producer and director, the most important number one and two in the production center system, seem to be divided into two sides in an instant because of this voice.

"Director Bong." Cui Rongpei's face was cold: "Are you sure you let her pass?" ”

Bong Joon-ho didn't speak, just nodded at him coldly.

"Good." Choi Young-bae stood up, "You'd better pray that the Han River monster breaks through the boundary of 'fish', otherwise it will ......"

He walked towards Lin Xiao, but his voice was to Bong Joon-ho, "In the Korean film and television industry, there will be no more directors like you!" ”

Bong Joon-ho sneered, a great director, the supreme honor of the director's profession, once he finds that he has the opportunity to get closer, he will press his entire net worth!

Everything because of that long shot, he sighed silently, if it wasn't for it, where would he have so much hesitation!

Now, even the artist who feels that his acting skills are still above Song Kang-ho, the world's top special effects studio, tens of billions of won investment, and the script that makes him extremely confident, as if all the conditions for becoming a great director are placed in front of him, and he finally abandoned the film club.

Once successful, the page will be flipped aside. And if he fails, the high-level leaders of the Shadow Club will inevitably kill him!

And Jiang Digui's "fish" - life and death spy change, it just stopped the pace of the Titanic back then, in the history of South Korea, it is not just a movie, but a signal of the rise of Korean film and television!

Beyond the fish, he gets goosebumps when he thinks about it!

It was an extreme excitement.

"It's time...... and all the artists have one heart......" He looked around the audience, and his eyes finally fell on Lin Xiao, this long-lost feeling of really being enthusiastic about directing a film, he hadn't had it for a long time.

After a moment, he laughed silently, "Sure enough, I am still suitable to be a director, not a high-level ......"

At this moment, Cui Rongpei had already walked in front of Lin Xiao, and he lost this game.

He lost to the people on the other side and Bong Joon-ho, none of them gave him face. Otherwise, even if Zheng Duobin is reincarnated after the movie, it will be impossible to live.

"Mr. Lin." He smiled, "I'm very disappointed. ”

"Mr. Cui, I just don't think it's easy to erase an artist's efforts." Lin Xiao said slowly.

Cui Rongpei stared at him for a moment and spoke, "Mr. Lin, the so-called artist, from our point of view, who else deserves to be called an artist besides himself?" ”

"There are only a few people like Mr. Lin and Miss Lee Hyori in each country, so you can be said to be a national treasure. What we should do as an identity is unity, not disagreement. ”

"What is union? It is to maximize the profits of film and television, and with money, you can do things in the future. He said lightly, Lin Xiao's slap hit him in the heart, he remembered it, but he couldn't break out, because the other party was not afraid of them at all.

The identity of the goodwill ambassador is a shield in foreign countries, and if it is not good, the film association will have a headache.

If it wants to break out, it depends on whether the price is enough, and just one Zheng Duobin is obviously not enough.

"You and the Film Association have joined forces, and what has emerged is an alliance between China and South Korea, and we will work together to resist Hollywood cultural aggression. And now...... I'm really disappointed that you chose an artist and gave up the olive branch of the Movie Club. ”

"That's because Mr. Cui has never been an artist." Lin Xiao disagrees and does not object to the other party's words, there is nothing right or wrong, but the two people are standing in different positions, "An artist who has achieved the level of Miss Zheng, if it is erased like this, I think the Korean film and television industry will be sad." ”

"Grief?" Cui Rongpei smiled, didn't continue, and shook hands with Lin Xiao gently, "Mr. Lin, if you have any ideas in the future, you can call me at any time, and it will be a great honor to cooperate with you." ”

The secretary immediately handed over a business card, Lin Xiao took it, and also handed over his own business card.

"Mr. Lin's business card is just an artist......" Cui Rongpei looked at it with a smile, "It's a pity......"

He didn't say anything pity, but Lin Xiao understood that he was saying that Lin Xiao's other identities were a pity, and if he put his business card, he might get better treatment.

"Goodbye, Mr. Lin, this game hurts me, I hope we can have a friendly tea next time."

Looking at the figure of the other party leaving, Lin Xiao's brows furrowed.

"This is a difficult person." Christina next to her had a solemn face, "Joy and anger are invisible, obviously in front of so many people, you don't give him face, Bong Joon-ho doesn't even give him face, he endures it." A typical fox who would never shoot if he didn't have a chance to kill with one hit. ”

"What is his status in the Yingxing Society?" Lin Xiao asked.

"I don't know." Christina frowned, "I investigated...... But the Shadow Club shows that there is no such person at all, his resume, he has served as the chairman of Dankook University, the director of the fish, and many producers, but this is all superficial. There are even rumors...... Miss Lee Eun-joo's last work before her death is all related to him. ”

Lin Xiao looked at the other party's back in silence, and suddenly smiled, "Actually, this is also a good thing." ”

"Oh?"

"Such a person will better understand what it means to 'the world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit', and if there is an investment he is interested in, he will immediately give up his previous suspicions."

"Isn't this a tiger skin?" Christina scoffed.

In the midst of laughter, the set was already lively.

Zheng Duobin was taken off the bridge, at this moment, she was helped down, her legs were weak, and the walk just now consumed all her courage.

The staff was about to help her to rest, but she struggled to walk in front of Lin Xiao and bowed with all her might.

"Senior...... Thank you ......."

Her voice was choked, and her feelings were extremely complicated, "Without you...... There's no way I'm going to do this......"

"Thank you...... Thank you! ”

"No, it's your own effort." Lin Xiao looked at Zheng Duobin, who was talking incoherently excitedly, and said lightly, "You go and rest first." ”

"All in place, Gao Yaxing, Park Hae-il ready." Kim Min-seok's voice rang out, "Thirty minutes later, the next one will be filmed." ”

Bong Joon-ho didn't say anything, but his heart had changed.

In this film, he will spend more effort than in his previous life, and go all out to challenge the Korean epic film "Fish"!

"I'm afraid you're going to get busy." Christina looked at Bong Joon-ho's face, "That little old man, now the fighting spirit is simply bursting." You'll have to shoot later. ”

As if to confirm his words, in the scene between Goa Sung and Park Hae Il, Bong Joon-ho's standards were obviously increased several times.

Lin Xiao watched them filming with great interest, the Korean crew is actually no different from the domestic one. It's just a little more disciplined.

The most conspicuous domestic crew is the related households. Because the director covers the sky with one hand, he can show off his power in the crew if he follows the director's relationship. But foreign countries are different, foreign producers like Cui Rongpei dare to speak harshly to the director, so two forces have been formed, checking and balancing each other, just like a one-party system and a multi-party system.

There are pros and cons to this, the crew that covers the sky with one hand is obviously stronger than the crew made by the producer, but the fairness and openness of the latter is stronger than the former.

"Huh?" Just as Lin Xiao was watching the crew operate, Christina suddenly let out a surprised voice.

She glanced at Lin Xiao, picked up her mobile phone in surprise, flipped through it several times, and her face finally changed.

"Lin, come with me."

"How?"

"Something."

Looking at Christina's face, he didn't say much, and the two left the set and returned to their rooms.

As soon as she sat down, Christina took out her phone and said, "See for yourself." ”

Lin Xiao took it, took a closer look, and raised his eyebrows.

There was only one text message on it: "Mr. Lin, congratulations on winning the role of Batman Prequel 2: The Dark Knight Rises, Joker, please go to the Time Warner headquarters on Manhattan Island in Los Angeles in two weeks to sign a contract." ”

Before he could finish reading, his phone rang.

As soon as it was connected, Nolan's voice came out, "Lin, Warner informed me that Batman 2 will start filming in a month. You play the Joker. You...... Did you get this text message? ”

"Got it." Lin Xiao said lightly, "I have a question first, Mr. Nolan, has your script been written?" ”

"I've passed the preliminary review, but it's just an outline, and Warner is going to kill me."

Lin Xiao said coldly, "Then Mr. Nolan, do you know that I am the protagonist of this drama at hand now, and it will be completed at least in December!" ”

"What?!" Nolan was taken aback: "Warner, what does this mean?" They're going to shoot the second part as soon as the first part is over, and there's been news about it, and I remember discussing it with you a few times...... But why is it so urgent? ”

"Urgent? I think it's been planned for a long time. Lin Xiao sneered, "Mr. Nolan, I still have something to do here, I'll call you later, right?" ”

"Okay......" Nolan seemed to understand something, "Lin, be careful......"

Hanging up the phone, Lin Xiao looked at Christina, and the two were silent.

"Warner is crazy." After a while, Christina gritted her teeth and said, "They used the right to choose and forced you to shoot the second part!" ”

"Nolan told me several times that Batman was going to make a second part, and I was still confused." Lin Xiao's eyes flashed, "My relationship with Warner, I am okay if the other party does not refrigerate, when Stringer announced in a high-profile manner that I am cooperating with Sony, my option contract should go into Warner's freezer, I wondered at the beginning, how could they still cooperate with me." ”

"It's obvious now." Christina said solemnly, "They just took advantage of you to shoot the Han River monster and couldn't shoot other films, and then sued you for breach of contract!" Bankrupt you and tie you to Warner's chariot! ”

"Warner and Sony, it's absolutely wrong, Sony has a grudge against the $800 million trap that year, knowing that you cooperated with Sony, Warner finally made a ruthless move."
