Chapter 286 I rely on, Girls' Generation

The story of "The King of Kung Fu" is straightforward.

This is the story of an American boy obsessed with Hong Kong kung fu movies, who returned to ancient China through the golden cudgel he got by accident, and defeated the evil Yujiang God of War to save Monkey King.

If you want to ask who is the God of War in Yujiang, why can he seal the powerful Monkey King.

Fang Nan was as confused as the audience in the theater.

In general, except for the fight scene between Li Lianlian and Cheng Long, this movie is a bit worth watching, and the rest of the plot is all weird.

The script is an authentic Hollywood-like script.

The young man who was bullied on campus successfully counterattacked the school bully, the mysterious master in ancient China, the beautiful revenge girl, unfortunately, he just clicked the wrong frame.

It's so weird for a foreigner to save Monkey King. Without decades of cerebral thrombosis, the screenwriter can't write this kind of story.

But Fang Nan and Zeng Li didn't come here for the movie, and the little girl who shook her head was happy and had accomplished her goal.

After spending two hours watching "The King of Kung Fu", which is neither Eastern nor Western, the family of three went shopping.

Sadly, Fang Nan could only hang far behind the mother and daughter with the visor of his hat pressed down.

Just bored, Gao Yuanyuan called, "Why did you go out at night and haven't come back yet?"

"You were walking outside, why are you back now?"

"Come back soon, Zhang Yang is here, and I want to ask you to invest in a new movie, not a literary one."

Fang Nan was inexplicable, Zhang Yang wanted to transform?

He sent a message of forgiveness to Zeng Li and walked out of the mall.

Arriving home in a flash, Zhang Yang, who had collaborated with Gao Yuanyuan in "Spicy Tang" in the early years, was standing under the eaves of Gao Yuanyuan's nobleman.

The two met early at the Berlin Film Festival last year, so there was no politeness, and they went straight to the point.

Zhang Yang's script is called "Unmanned Driving", and the theme is urban love, which is a very small theme.

Fang Nan flipped through the script in the study, and then he felt dizzy and his blood pressure surged.

"Unmanned Driving" is indeed a love story, but the elements it contains are too fucked up. The mistress, Che Zhen, and mistress are staged one by one. What makes him even more pissed off is that mistress was forgiven and found happiness in the end.

This kind of thing may not be new in reality.

But this is a movie, and the audience of movies will always be the general public. Isn't this adding to the audience?
Fang Nan suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, and looked at the list of actors to be invited.

Liu Ye, Gao Yuanyuan, Chen Jianbing, Lin Xinru, Li Xiaoran, Wang Luodan, Huang Xuan, Wang Ziwen, there are many big names, and the investment is not small.

What Fang Nan couldn't accept the most was that the female lead Gao Yuanyuan was going to be invited to play was the mistress who made his blood pressure soar.

"Director Zhang, I may disappoint you. Tang Tang Film and Television has invested in a lot of film and television this year, and I can't do anything about it."

Fang Nan had to say euphemistically that the two were acquaintances and benefactors who brought Gao Yuanyuan out.

He is very happy to help these domestic art directors transform,

Tang Tang Film and Television also needs to cast a wide net, catch more fish, and invest in more movies, but they can't invest with their eyes closed. He personally doesn't think "Unmanned Driving" will make money.

And Gao Yuanyuan played such an inconspicuous role.

So he could only refuse on the excuse of lack of money.

"Don't think about it anymore? All the elements in it are full of controversy and very attractive." Zhang Yang asked to stay.

Feeling the pressure on his shoulders, Fang Nan looked helplessly at Gao Yuanyuan, who was almost pressing his whole body on his shoulders.

"It's okay to vote less, but don't ask Yuanyuan to play the leading role." Gao Yuanyuan wanted to repay his kindness, so what else could he do? Spend some money to watch it.

"Yuanyuan agrees, I'm fine." Zhang Yang looked at Gao Yuanyuan.

Gao Yuanyuan nodded: "If you don't act, then don't act."

"Well, your budget is 3000 million, one-tenth of Tangtang Film and Television Investment, 300 million, I will call the company's film and television investment department tomorrow."

"Thank you, then I won't delay your rest." Zhang Yang stood up.

It was too late, Fang Nan and the others didn't keep him.

After closing the door, the two put on a change of costumes and went into the bathroom. Gao Yuanyuan thought about it and couldn't help regretting it.

"The role Zhang Yang gave me is very explosive, I should try it." She discussed while kneading Fang Nan's softness.

"Come on, there are so many explosive roles, there is no need to play such a scumbag role. If you really play this role, your fans will definitely not be satisfied. You can rest assured and wait until you join the group. I will arrange other scenes for you."

Gao Yuanyuan was curious: "What play?"

"Turn that book by my bedside into a screenplay."

""Du Lala's Promotion"? Has anyone read this subject?"

"The theme of love in the workplace, why is no one watching it?"

After Fang Nan finished speaking, he pushed away Gao Yuanyuan's right hand and upgraded the shower room into a battlefield.

In the next few days, Fang Nan asked Yan Hong to purchase the film adaptation rights of "Du Lala's Promotion", and at the same time asked screenwriter Wang Yun to adapt the script.

As the director candidate, he appointed Wang Liang who is filming "Love Call Transfer 2".

Unlike Fang Nan who issued an order, and the subordinates started to prepare for the crew of "Du Lala", Zhang Yang was still looking for financing for his "Unmanned Driving".

Nor is he a nobody.

Last year's "Falling Leaves Return to the Root" even made a small profit, so it is not easy to find money.

But Fang Nan's 300 million investment helped him the most.

With the endorsement of Fang Nan, a box office winning general, China Film was the first to enter the game.

However, having suffered the disastrous box office failure of "Jinling Jinling", the transformational work of literary director Lu Chuan, Mr. Han didn't trust the same transformation of Zhang Yang, so he called Fang Nan specially, and finally made a small vote of 300 million.

After that, Zhang Yang found Huayi again.

In Huayi's office, Wang Lei rubbed the script and asked curiously: "Tang Tang Film and Television really invested 300 million?"

"Mr. Wang, how can it be possible to lie about such a thing? "Unmanned Driving" has started preparations, and the first phase of funds has to be accounted for. It can't deceive anyone."

Zhang Yang is speechless, Hua Yi is too contemptuous of others?Treat him like a liar.

"It's true. Fang Nan you met in person? With a budget of 3000 million, why did he only steal 300 million? It's too little."

Wang Lei ignored Zhang Yang's displeasure and continued to ask.

Investing in movies is a high-risk operation, and he can lose millions or tens of millions at every turn, so he has to take it seriously.

"Tang Tang Film and Television has a lot of projects this year, and the funds are a bit tight." Zhang Yang repeated Fang Nan's excuse.

"You wait a moment."

Wang Lei paused the conversation, left Zhang Yang and went to the propaganda department, and learned that Tang Tang Film and Television's film and television plans for this year may include "Embroidered Spring Knife 2", "Parasite", "The Wind", and "Those Years".

"Latent", "Love Apartment", "Life and Death", "Legend of Sword and Sword III", "Walking to the West Gate", "My Brother's Name is Shunliu" and many other film and television dramas, he couldn't help but believe Fang Nan's so-called financial shortage.

After all, they are still building the country's first ecological building, which is awesome.

After thinking about it like this, Wang Lei found that mistresses, Che Zhen, and mistresses are indeed hot topics in recent years.

Thinking of the production of Tangtang Films and Television, "Snail House", which is currently being screened on Tomato Channel, is so popular because it is the social topics in the play that have attracted the attention of the whole people.

He immediately thought that "Unmanned Driving" had something to do.

Hua Yi's ability to invest in this movie should be considered a leak.

"It's still 2400 million yuan short of the budget, right? Huayi Investment is 2000 million yuan." Wang Lei returned to the office and made a decision.

By the way, he also appointed the female number one, and Han Zhizhi, who had been dormant in Huayi for a long time, succeeded in taking the position.

5 month 8 number.

Accompanied by Zhao Zhu, Chu Yujun, Yu Hai, Ma Dayong and others, Fang Nan flew to South Korea.

Flying to South Korea at this time, he admitted that he had an evasive mentality and couldn't bear to look directly at the possible disaster.

The person who was in charge of picking up the airport was Li Jinxiao from CJ Entertainment, and it was quite serious. There was a row of rushing and security guards, causing Fang Nan to leave the airport with his front foot, and boarded the Korean media with his back foot.

His reputation among Korean common people is not good.

But in Chungmuro, the music industry has a good reputation, which is due to the impressive results of "My Love from the Star" and "Youth in Youth".

After "My Love from the Star" was released on SBS, it won the annual top ratings in Korea. It has been a year since it was released, and it is still being mentioned.

Two songs written by him, "You Are My Destiny", "My destiny" adapted from "I Remember I Loved", and "Like Being Shot" were sung by Korean singer Baek Jiyoung, and won many awards in the Korean music industry .

Fang Nan doesn't know much about the Asian Music Awards and the Seoul Music Awards, but it is said that this female singer is so popular that she has no friends.

There is nothing to say about "Youth in Youth". This movie is popular in South Korea. One reason is that because it won an international award, the actors from Chungmuro ​​refused to accept it.

In addition, the bullying theme is inherently able to take root in South Korea.

In front of the office building of CJ Entertainment, Li Jinxiao got out of the car first and started the introduction mode.

"President Fang, this is Lee Mi, the president of CJ Entertainment. These two are Park Chan-wook and director Kim Ki-duk of our company. These are actors who maintain a close relationship with CJ Entertainment."

Fang Nan nodded and shook hands with the people introduced by Li Jinxiao one by one, then stopped depressed, and the people who came after him won't be introduced?

Let me introduce the actors at the bottom level, they are all here.

Lee Jin Hyo looked embarrassed: "Ah, this is Ms. Han Ga In, Lee Joon Ki, Lee Yoo Ri"

Fang Nan's heart skipped a beat as the big, rough hands touched Han Jiaren's weak and boneless hands. There were not many Korean actors he liked, and Han Jiaren was one of them.

It's a pity that Han Jiaren is already married as a woman at this time.

After introducing each other, there will be a meeting for the "Parasite" project. The content of the meeting is to share the progress of the project and the upcoming actor audition.

"Parasite" had already passed the review, so Fang Nan looked at the actor information in front of him, and the actor that CJ Entertainment had reserved for the role.

Project Title: "Parasite"

English name: "Gisaengchung"

Budget: 1800 million - 3000 million

Producer: Huaxia Tangtang Film and Television [500 million], Warner Pictures America [400 million], South Korea's CJ Entertainment [800 million]

Producer: Fang Nan [100 million]

Producers: Zhao Zhu, Mao Jianguo, Li Jinxiao
Directors: Fang Nam, Park Chan-wook
Photography: Zheng Zhaoqiang, Hong Qingbiao
Actor: Kim Ki-taek [Father] - Song Kang-ho
Kim Ki Woo [Brother] - Lee Joon Ki
Kim Ki Ting 【Sister】—Jeon Ji Hyun
President Park - Lee Jung Jae
Mrs. Park - Ha Ji Won, Han Ga In
Park Dahui - Han Hyo-joo, Lim [redacted dotted line]

Almost every role in the script has two to three actors as candidates, and they are currently waiting for auditions. Obviously, there are many Korean actors who want to join the "Parasite" team.

"Jeon Ji Hyun is not suitable for the role of a younger sister. I found an actress from "Youth in Youth" to play this role, an artist from our company." Fang Nan put down the cast chart and said to Li Jinxiao in English.

"Ah Liu Qianqian, I know her. This role change is not controversial." After Li Jinxiao reminded, the president of CJ Entertainment expressed no objection first.

"Let's talk about the other candidates after the audition. The audition is tomorrow, right?"

After Fang Nan finished speaking, his brows got into a ball, and he didn't know what that daubed line meant, so he asked lazily.

Li Jinxiao: "Yes, then let's talk about the filming location."

From the meeting to the end of the company, CJ Entertainment arranged a sumptuous dinner in Myeongdong, the busiest place in South Korea. They ate seafood, mostly sashimi.

The food was okay, and the etiquette made Fang Nan and his party a little unbearable.

From the moment of entering the box, it was a lot of pushing and shoving for whoever sat in the main seat directly opposite the door.

After that, pouring wine and toasting was another torture.

When it was their turn to eat, the Korean group hid their left hands under the table, used a right hand to hold a spoon to dig up rice from time to time, scooped up soup and stuffed it into their mouths, making Fang Nan and his group feel extremely uncomfortable.

This way of eating is too depressing.

Ma Dayong didn't have enough to eat after several martial arts.

After eating and drinking, the drunk Li Jinxiao strongly invited Fang Nan and his party to go to the karaoke room [KTV] for fun. At the same time, he also invited a young and beautiful female companion.

Fang Nan asked curiously, only to find out that among the dozen or so female companions, they were members of a well-known girl group.

Under the flickering lights, Fang Nan was startled when he heard the little girl beside him call her name Lin Yuner in broken Chinese, "I'm rough, Girls' Generation?"

When Fang Nan was dumbfounded, a woman who looked like Lin Yuner's manager smiled and said in English: "President Fang, we, Yuner, are destined for you."

"What do you mean?" Fang Nan was puzzled.

"We know that "My destiny" is called "You Are My Destiny" in China, but the emotional drama that Yoona is about to film is also called "You Are My Destiny". Don't you think it is very predestined?"

"Probably." Fang Nan admitted on the surface, but in his heart he slandered: "It turns out that this f---ing thing is called fate."

After introducing each other, they came down to sing and drink. It was the first time in Fang Nan's life that he entered a KTV and sang "Dang" by the power train under the instigation of everyone.

His singing level is still the same, whether it is high or low, it will break when it is the turn of the high note.

But generally speaking, it's okay, KTV standard, fortunately, I don't expect to perform on stage.

After finishing the song, Lin Yuner wanted to drink with him, Fang Nan looked at it funny, and asked the manager next to him:

"You guys are here for "Parasite," right? To be honest, her thin and weak image really fits a character in the movie, but if you do this, won't Chungmuro ​​be dissatisfied?"

Chungmuro ​​in South Korea is the cradle and birthplace of Korean movies. The actors who come out of Chungmuro ​​are like those born in Huaxia Academy.

But the Chungmuro ​​circle is smaller and more exclusive.

This group of people almost swept all the awards of the three Korean film awards.

Moreover, the deep and strict classification system of the Korean entertainment industry has a lot to do with Chungmuro, so it is very difficult for outsiders to move to Chungmuro.

I didn't expect Lin Yuner, an idol born in a girl group, to have a heart higher than the sky.

"I hope President Fang will give us Yoona a chance to audition."

After the female manager finished speaking, her eyes slanted to Lin Yuner, Lin Yuner quickly raised her glass with her right hand, held the bottom of the glass with her left hand and respected Fang Nan.

The old man Fang Nan was smart, this little trick didn't work for him, and he didn't give an accurate answer in the end.

As for what the judges think about, it is naturally impossible to happen.

Brother Dong's case was bloody in front of Fang Nan.

No matter how inconspicuous he is, he will not choose to play around in a strange place where he is not familiar with in South Korea.

If you really understand the Tao, you can't afford to lose that person!

　It doesn’t feel like I wrote it, that’s all.
