Of course, Ha Jung-woo would not do the oolong thing of coming to lobby but not carrying the script, so when Choi Jung-won asked, he handed over the script as soon as possible.

took over the script, and under the concerned eyes of Luo Hongzhen and Ha Zhengyu, Cui Zhengyuan slowly opened it.

Just by seeing the title of the movie, Cui Zhengyuan has a score in his heart. This film must be produced and released, and he will also support it unconditionally.

Why?

Because this movie is called "Horror Live".

Cui Zhengyuan watched this movie in his previous life, and he also understood why Luo Hongzhen and Ha Zhengyu were so worried.

Comparatively speaking, "Horror Live" is not a big production. The passable scene is the Mapo Bridge explosion and subsequent collapse.

Not only that, but the number of participants in this movie is also very small.

Except for some passers-by who passed by, there are not even more than 7 characters with a role. And the venue is also very small, and most of the plot takes place in a live broadcast room.

But the small-scale film can't hide the fact that this movie is classic. On the contrary, Cui Zhengyuan, who has seen this movie, has special respect for it.

If he were to choose the ranking of Korean films over the years, "Horror Live" would be among the top three, if not the first.

It is said that Ha Jung-woo is the "theone" of the Korean film industry after Choi Min-sik, Song Kang-ho, Xue Kyung-gu, and Ahn Sung-ki, but in fact, he relies on his superb acting skills in this movie.

"Horror Live" is definitely a movie that can be supported by one person, in addition to the most important supporting role Lee Kyung-young who played the role he should play, the reason why the 98-minute plot touches the heartstrings is because of Ha Jung-woo's amazing acting skills.

What makes Choi Jung-won even more excited is that this small-scale zuò movie with an investment of only 3.5 billion won has recouped its cost six days after its release.

In comparison, the input-output ratio is definitely a work that any investor will be excited about.

As for the problem of mapping politics between Luo Hongzhen and Ha Zhengyu, there is no problem when it comes to Cui Zhengyuan.

He is a politician himself. is still a politician who can have influence on the entire country, and naturally he is not afraid that any force will be angry.

To put it more appropriately, if there is any big man who is not satisfied with this movie, then you can come to me, Choi Jung-won.

Whether it's tearing or doing, you will be with you to the end.

The only issue that makes Choi Jung-won care is the release date of the movie.

If nothing goes wrong, the film should be similar to its previous life, and it will be released in early 2013.

But this time period did not satisfy Choi Jung-won, because it happened to be Park Geun-H's victory in the election. When the duties of the presidency began.

And this movie is precisely based on the president, alluding to the ugliness of politics.

In this way, it will give the impression that the film is a satire of the current president.

You must know that he Choi Jung-won is a die-hard supporter of Park Geun-H, and his subordinates made a movie that was considered to be a satire of the current president, so it wasn't an oolong incident.

So in Choi Jung-won's idea, the timing of this release must be adjusted.

"The script is very good and very thoughtful. If you shoot it, it will definitely be eye-catching. So don't hesitate to shoot boldly. I'll take care of the follow-up. Cui Zhengyuan took care of everything and put the problem on himself.

Knowing that the executive committee would support him, this made Luo Hongzhen and Ha Zhengyu completely relieved. "Thank you for the support of the general manager, our acting department and the film and television production company will definitely come up with the most perfect works."

Choi Zhengyuan waved his hand. Let them not rush to get excited. "There's nothing wrong with the film, but I have some requests. That is, the filming process of this film must be accelerated, and it is best to start theater before December of this year. ”

"This ......" Luo Hongzhen and Ha Zhengyu were both a little dumbfounded.

It's already early August, and it's only four months before the end of the year. If you want to shoot and edit a movie. It's almost an impossible task to release it again.

"Usually, this is really difficult for some strong people. More than three months. The horror of the work in a hurry will not be satisfactory. Luo Hongzhen tried to explain.

Cui Zhengyuan didn't care, he also had his own opinions. "I think there is a lot of time, the plot in the movie doesn't involve any big scenes, if you speed up the progress, you can basically finish filming in a month and a half."

Seeing that Cui Zhengyuan's attitude was very persistent, Ha Jung-woo had to stand up and argue. "Routine, the part of the literary drama is really easy to get through. But there are still some special effects shots in this movie, and you know, doing special effects is the most time-consuming. ”

Cui Zhengyuan smiled and helped them come up with a solution. "You don't have to worry about this, I'll let the special effects department do everything in their power to help you. And I approved the budget for this movie, and I raised it to 6 billion won for you. No problem now, right? ”

There must be brave men under the heavy reward, and Cui Zhengyuan's approach is direct and domineering.

Special effects are time-consuming, one is a technical problem, and the second is a financial problem.

He has also paid attention to several special effects shots in "Horror Live", and in terms of technology, it is still easy to win if the special effects department of C.J Group goes all out.

It's nothing more than a large investment of funds to make the staff work overtime.

Now that Choi Jung-won has raised their original budget of 3.5 billion won to 6 billion, the room for maneuver is very rich.

Not only in terms of special effects, but also in terms of shooting, it can be done completely.

Although it is a good thing to get an adequate budget, Luo Hongzhen is still puzzled that Cui Zhengyuan is in such a hurry. "Generally, if this movie is made according to the normal shooting procedures, there is no problem. Why so urgent? ”

Cui Zhengyuan looked at the two talented subordinates and did not hide it, but said very melancholy: "Don't forget the content of this film, as well as my political position." If I wait until next year to release it, do you think I'm embarrassed? ”

The two thought for a long time before they figured out the meaning of Cui Zhengyuan's words. However, an important piece of news shocked them and made them a little trance-like.

Ha Jung-woo even looked around with some trepidation, and after making sure that there was no one around, he cautiously asked, "Standing Officer, do you dare to guarantee that the one will win the election?" ”

Compared to him. Although Luo Hongzhen was quiet, his expression was also nervous and gossipy.

No way, although in the outside world these two are also celebrities. But their field is only in the film industry, and the things on politics are still too far away from them.

In the minds of ordinary people, such a thing as the presidential election is naturally sacred and suspenseful. Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary people to see who the future national leader is.

Now seeing Cui Zhengyuan's unequivocal attitude and domineering, their curiosity was seduced.

At this time, Cui Zhengyuan became cautious and refused to say more. "It's going to be soon, and you'll know then."

It's not that he doesn't believe these two, it's better to be cautious at an important juncture.

In case the news of his reckless announcement today that Park Geun-H will definitely win the presidential election leaks out. It will definitely cause great criticism.

In that case, the advantage that the new GJ Party has won so hard will also have twists and turns.

After giving the two clear answers, Choi Jung-won sent them away. He gave them a three-month deadline, forcing them to work overtime to prepare and shoot.

After dealing with the matter of "Horror Live", Cui Zhengyuan found that there were some important things coming soon.

The exciting news on his desk is that after 32 days of screening, "League of Thieves" has exceeded 12 million viewers as scheduled, making it the most watched film in Korean history.

After the news was released, it was terrible. Not to mention how exciting the C.J Group itself is. It's that the entire film industry was stunned.

There is still a period of time before this movie is released, but the box office figure of 12.7 million has already broken the number of 12.31 million created by "The Double-Faced King" last year.

And if you look at this trend, you will break the box office record for Korean movies held by "Monster of the Han River". It's not unexpected.

In the summer of 2012, the whole of South Korea was in the midst of the ravages of "Gangnam Style", and watched the box office of "League of Thieves" soar all the way.

Both the music and film waves were created by A.P, which also made the company stand out from the crowd. It became the most influential entertainment company in Korea that year.

In the Forbes list for the first half of 2012, which has just been released, A.P Company deservedly ranked first.

And in the ranking of artists, GirlsGeneration, which has set off a retro frenzy. Standing alone came first. IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THEM WAS PSY, A SINGER FROM A.P.

However, Choi Jung-won believes that by the time the overall list is released at the end of the year, PSY will definitely be able to surpass GirlsGeneration and become the No. 1.

The most influential variety show in the first half of 2012 was "Infinite Challenge", and it was the first for seven consecutive months. Even if "The Moon Embracing the Sun" is so popular, it does not threaten the status of this show in the minds of the audience.

It can be said that in 2012, the actual forces of the entire Korean entertainment industry were all struggling under the power of A.P Company, and there was almost no hope of coming out.

And now A.P is no longer satisfied with the small market in South Korea, and has begun to let PSY hit the world.

Under the overwhelming popularity of "Gangnam Style", many companies feel that no matter what kind of work they launch, it seems that they will become cannon fodder.

It's a good thing, and Cui Zhengyuan can't manage it so much for the time being. I had to follow the trend and continue to promote the company's various businesses to advance by leaps and bounds, and as for when it could be delayed, I had to go with the flow.

In the past six months, he has used too much force, and he really has not left anyone else to live. (To be continued......)
