Chapter 1722: Family and Country Feelings
With such an achievement in "League of Thieves", Cui Zhengyuan has no reason not to express it.
To this end, he held a grand celebration and thank-you party at the Shilla Hotel.
Not only the main creative members of the crew and all relevant media reporters and friends were invited, but even Ren Dahua, Li Xinjie and others who were far away in China were also invited to South Korea by special plane.
This celebration banquet was very lively, and every participant in the film was elated, happy that they had participated in the creation of history.
Cui Zhengyuan, who is a zuò maker, is even more generous, giving everyone a rich red envelope.
Originally, the Korean actors were still a little puzzled, I don't know what this red envelope means? Fortunately, there were Chinese actors around them who explained that they understood that this was a reward for making zuò people.
However, although the customs are unfamiliar, everyone is still very happy when they look at the rich banknotes in the red envelopes. It seems that money is the most enjoyable.
In order to participate in this celebration, Li Anhao also returned to South Korea.
In order to invite Chinese actors to star, as well as to arrange for the movie to be released in theaters in China, he is all running around. Therefore, when discussing meritorious deeds, it is natural that he cannot be missing.
Perhaps in the eyes of the outside world, the directors and leading actors of this movie have the most credit. But everyone in the industry knows that it is these people who run behind the scenes that are the key to a film's excellent performance.
Receiving the big red envelope given by Cui Zhengyuan, Ang Li opened it in the middle of the ground and teased: "Standing officer, why don't you give RMB?" I live in China again, and it will be a waste to give me a lot of won for huàn. ”
"Ah, just keep it for you, there's so much nonsense." Cui Zhengyuan held the wine glass, pointed at this naughty subordinate and scolded with a smile.
Because they speak Chinese, Li Xinjie next to them can also understand. The cheerful woman also joined in the fun, "I want Hong Kong dollars." ”
Cui Zhengyuan's head is full of black lines. "I'm not a bank, and I'm not in charge of the huàn business."
The boss's humor made everyone let go of their hearts, and the wine table was particularly lively. Ren Dahua, the big brother in the film industry, was surrounded by Choi Jung-won, Kim Yun-seok, and Lee Jung-jae, and frequently toasted.
"Executive Cui, when will you write me a script? To be honest, I really admire your screenwriting ability. Ren Dahua drank a few glasses of wine, his face was ruddy, and he also opened the conversation.
This big brother is in incense. Hong Kong has a lot of influence, and having a good relationship with him is of great benefit to his artists who are active there. So Cui Zhengyuan also attaches great importance to making friends with him. Said sincerely: "Thanks to Brother Ren, how about next year?" You also know that I'm busy with "Gangnam Style" again, and I also agreed to star in a movie from my country, and I'm also busy with election campaigns, so I can't be separated. ”
His attitude made Ren Dahua very satisfied, patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "If you can have this heart, I will be content." In the past, Lin Sheng, Xiang Sheng, and Yang Sheng all said that you were a righteous person, and I saw you today. Sure enough, it lives up to its name. ”
The celebration banquet was very satisfying to all parties, and the subsequent press conference also satisfied the demands of the media. It can be said that this is a happy move for everyone, and it has earned enough eyeballs and popularity for A.P Company and "League of Thieves". I believe that it is not difficult for the total box office to eventually surpass "Monster of the Han River".
For "Monster of the Han River", Cui Zhengyuan held his breath.
Over the years, he has planned so many high-grossing movies, but none of them can surpass "Monster of the Han River".
It's just that the box office record of this Korean movie was not launched by A.P, so people outside have something to say.
All the time. There is one voice in South Korea. It is said that although Cui Zhengyuan is amazingly talented, he is not as divine as the legend says. Because he has made so many good movies, but the highest box office does not belong to him.
This shows that his films have not become the favorite works of Korean audiences. He has not yet reached the king of Korean films.
Although Cui Zhengyuan didn't say anything, he kept this incident in his heart. Now, "League of Thieves" is here, and he wants to see what those guys have to say after the total box office is released.
The press conference is a matter for the crew, and Cui Zhengyuan does not need to attend. Just as he was leaving for his home, Li Anhao got into his car.
Obviously, the return of this prince is not as simple as attending a celebration banquet. This kind of thing is not enough for him to make a special trip, and it will not be a bad job.
"Having trouble at work?" Cui Zhengyuan asked him at this time.
Li Anhao shook his head, his expression was still relatively relaxed. "It's not a problem, it's a project, and I think it's interesting. However, it is a bit of a hassle, so I would like to consult the general management. If the general approval is confirmed, our Chinese branch will follow. ”
"Oh, our Representative Li can find a project on his own? That's a good thing, let's talk about it, I'll give you a reference. "Cui Zhengyuan is interested.
Although the China branch was upgraded to a Chinese branch, most of the time over the years it has been a transfer of activities from the head office. Even if it is the Chinese artists under it, many of the activities are arranged by Cui Zhengyuan.
Now that the branch has begun to conduct business independently, this is a big progress, and Cui Zhengyuan is certainly happy to hear about it.
Seeing that Cui Zhengyuan was interested, Li Anhao had a little confidence and began to tell.
It turned out that the project he was interested in this time was a comic.
Somewhat different from those entertainment-oriented comics, this comic has a strong patriotic feeling of the Chinese.
In this comic, the author shows some important military and diplomatic events at home and abroad before and after the establishment of the new Chinese People's Government in the form of animal cartoons.
At the same time of popular science education, it also increases the interest and engaging.
This comic is currently being serialized and updated on many online platforms, and it has set off a wave and has been liked by countless netizens.
And this comic is called "Those Things About the Rabbit That Year".
A few days ago, the author of this manga flew against the light and planned to make the serialized manga into a video-style anime for promotion and distribution.
But the cost of making zuò anime is very high, and it is far from what an ordinary person can afford. Moreover, the later distribution and publicity are also relatively cumbersome and huge investment procedures, which cannot be completed by one person.
Therefore, Backlight Flight has sent a letter of intent to many animation and entertainment companies to seek investment, hoping to attract an investment.
A.P China also received a letter of intent to seek investment.
Unlike those apprehensive entertainment companies, Ang Lee watched all the comics of "What Happened to That Rabbit That Year". Very interested in this comic.
However, as those entertainment companies are concerned about, this comic has a large number of political incidents, and it also carries more extreme patriotism.
It is very likely that such a project will not be able to get the above pass, and in the end the investment will be lost.
When it comes to understanding China and energy in China, then Cui Zhengyuan naturally doesn't think about it secondly. Therefore, Li Anhao decided to leave for China and consult Cui Zhengyuan's opinion.
Listening to Li Anhao's narration with relish, the corners of Cui Zhengyuan's mouth had already curved.
If Ang Lee observes carefully, he will find that Cui Zhengyuan's expression at this time should be described? Perhaps it is more appropriate to call it remembrance.
In his previous life, as a Chinese, he was still a Chinese with a strong patriotic heart. How can you not cry and laugh in the story of "What Happened to the Rabbit That Year"?
Different from the traditional cold patriotic stories, every little story in "That Rabbit" makes people's hearts stir and their blood boils.
Whether it is watching the territory of the motherland being divided by foreign powers, or watching the volunteers cross the Yalu River without waiting and relying on it, it can arouse the most sensitive feelings in the hearts of every Chinese.
What kind of motherland was that, except for the 40,000,000 people who were waiting to be fed, there was nothing, and the ancestors ushered in today's beautiful life for us with great sacrifices.
As long as there is a person with a conscience, looking back, who can not be proud of their motherland?
Reminds me of this comic. The stirring song "Dream Chasing Pure Heart" floated in his ears, and it reminded Cui Zhengyuan of the years of generosity and tragedy in his previous life.
Time and space change, fate makes people. Now he has changed, and the identity of Chinese has disappeared in the vortex of time and space. But the feelings of the descendants of Yan and Huang. The traces are so deep that he has dreamed back countless times at midnight, looking at the deep earth from afar.
Although Cui Zhengyuan has calmly told himself countless times, getting close to China is due to the general trend. He wants to win the best situation for his team.
But deep in his heart, how could the feelings of approaching the motherland be abandoned?
No matter how far the Chinese wanderer goes, his roots. It's still there!
Li Anhao didn't know what kind of repercussions he had caused in Cui Zhengyuan's heart as a reward for his work.
Executive Cui, who has always been extremely calm, has been deprived of his will by something called willfulness at this moment.
He knocked on his knee and said very firmly: "Invest, must invest." However, the subject matter of this manga is relatively sensitive, so it cannot be done in the name of our company. So, you go back and set up a small studio, and then I'll inject money into it. You sue the author, and I'll take care of the investment. He has only one responsibility, and that is to do his best to come up with the best work. As for the benefits, I just need to recoup the costs. ”
He is too calm, and it is rare to be willful. However, in order to pay tribute to his family and country, Cui Zhengyuan is willing to do so.
In the previous life, "Those Things About the Rabbit That Year" can be described as ill-fated, and it has never exploded into the influence it should have.
This is due not only to the lack of funds, but also to the influence of China's strange social system. It is obviously a work full of patriotic feelings, but it does not get the influence it should have, and I have to say that this is a kind of stern irony.
In this life, Cui Zhengyuan decided that he could no longer let such a good thing not be recognized by the Chinese.
What's more, he has the identity of a foreigner, which also makes it impossible for some people to mess around. Besides, he has a close relationship with China's high-level politicians, and many of the problems encountered by ordinary people are not a problem for him at all.
Now that it's decided, let it go.
Looking at the bright lights passing outside the window, Cui Zhengyuan seemed to have entered a time and space tunnel and found his past years again.
Ignoring the fact that there were still people around him, the tone of his mouth humming was getting louder and louder.
Where the hell is the world full of flowers
If it does save zài then I will definitely go
I want to stand on the highest mountain there
It doesn't matter if it's a cliff or not
Live hard, love hard, even if the liver and brain are smeared

Ran forward to meet the cold eyes and sneers
How can you feel the vastness of life without going through hardships
Fate cannot make us fall to our knees and beg for mercy
Even if blood is spilled all over the bosom
Continue to run with the pride of a child
How can you see the sparkle of life if you don't stick to the end
Rather than lingering, let's indulge in burning
