You don't understand the happiness of the director

Although Little K is mediocre, he has a desolate beauty of barren land. He is very artistic and individual, and has a certain appeal to the royal power.

The identity of his sister-in-law made this attraction skyrocket, and at the same time, it also increased his defense value. He couldn't let Taozi off for the second time!

So he allowed her to play with her two jade legs in front of him, and the royal power remained unmoved.

Just looking at it makes Twilight Man's heart sway, if this leg is dangled in front of me, I can kneel down!

Wang Quan continued to look at the data of the Kimchi Film Market. At this time, "Twilight Saga 3" had no rivals in Kimchi Country. It had a box office of US$8.3 million in the first weekend, with more than 1.5 million visitors. This result was higher than that of the second film. If it is strong, there is hope that it will enter the top ten Korean movies of the year.

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the issuing company has been changed and the new company must seize this opportunity.

There are three giants in the Kimchi Country film industry, namely CJ, Lotte and SHOWBOX. The three companies are backed by chaebols, and they are all one-stop businesses from production to distribution to theaters.

Among them, CJ Entertainment, which was separated from Samsung Group, is the absolute king among the three giants. "The King's Man" and "Siwei Island" that have attracted tens of millions of viewers in Kimchi Country are all produced by this company. It also invested in Zhang Ziyi's "Perfect" ”, in addition to representing distribution rights for Paramount and DreamWorks.

SHOWBOX owns "The Flying Taegeuk Flag" and "Monster on the Han River", two movies with tens of millions of viewers, and Orion is behind them.

Lotte Entertainment is naturally the Lotte Group, and the "Old Man" series belongs to him. One of the main reasons behind the recent suicide of female star Jang Ja-yeon was the Lotte Group's Sin family father and son. They are simply beasts, but her suicide note has not yet been released. public.

Although Kimchi Country does not refuse foreign companies to directly distribute movies locally, it is not that easy to directly establish a Dragon Head Seoul branch like Neon. Haven't you seen that Paramount has sent out distribution agents?

In the past, Long Toutou's movies were all distributed by SHOWBOX, but the distribution fees they demanded were too high, so Long Toutou decided to support the family again. Finally, Next Entertainment World came into the sight of Wang Quan and Dorothy. This company can be abbreviated as NEW.

NEW Company was established last year. It has no theaters under its umbrella and is known for its professional and precise distribution. In just one year, it has become an emerging force second only to the three major companies. There must be some power behind it.

And because they were newly established and their overall strength is still relatively weak, they also hope to obtain the agency distribution rights for Hollywood blockbusters to expand their influence. However, the previous situation has already been allocated. If some of the major Hollywood studios do not want to For self-distribution, I will also find agents from the three giants. The only one I can count on is Long Toutou, a new Hollywood giant.

We are all new companies and are relatively able to empathize. In order to obtain Long Toutou's cooperation, NEW also offered preferential conditions that the other three giants could not offer.

Before "Twilight 3", Long Toutou and NEW had already collaborated on two films, "In the Cloud" and "Orphan".

The former was not very successful, with only a few hundred thousand US dollars, but "Orphan" received more than 4 million US dollars and nearly one million moviegoers, showing the strength of NEW Company.

And Wang Quan knows that the strength of this company will become stronger and stronger after it starts to produce its own movies, until it can truly join the Big Three and become one of the four major film companies in Kimchi Country.

Future movies such as "The Gift of Room 7", "Train to Busan", "The Defender", "Pamento", "Sea Mist", and the TV series "Descendants of the Sun" will all come from this company.

Another purpose of Wang Quan's visit to Seoul this time is to discuss the stock investment with NEW Company on behalf of Long Toutou. Coincidentally, Wang Quan's college classmate Bai Chengxun is currently working in this company. He studied directing and is now engaged in film distribution. .

Before Wang Quan came, he had tested NEW's boss Jin Yuze through Bai Chengxun. The other party was somewhat interested. If Long Toutou took a stake, the two companies would be completely tied. Long Toutou's output of more than ten movies per year would guarantee NEW's success. Normal operation, coupled with the distribution of films from other local companies, is another income, but he is obviously not satisfied with just distribution.

This flight was relatively short. Wang Quan only went to the bathroom once, and he was alone. This was not a chartered flight, so it was not that convenient.

Arriving at Incheon International Airport, Wang Quan met his old classmate Bai Chengxun, who was ordered to pick him up.

As soon as Wang Quan came to power, good news came from Dorothy. Artisan Entertainment and Summit Entertainment had already been acquired, and the company's market value increased by 300 million, which was equivalent to making a lot of money without spending any money.

At the same time, "The Hurt Locker", the film produced by Cameron's ex-wife Catherine and invested by Summit Entertainment, has also confirmed its schedule and will begin its journey to the Olympics next year.

Next, let's look at Miramax Pictures. Artisan and Summit are both small Karami, and together they are not as valuable as Miramax.

On the way, Bai Chengxun lamented to the squad leader, "Squad leader, you are so strong. The number of viewers of Twilight 3 exceeded 1.5 million. This is already the highest-grossing movie our NEW company has ever released!"

"NEW Company has always cooperated with small independent studios. This is the first time to release a blockbuster of this scale. This result is beyond my expectation. I thought it would be weaker than the second film."

Bai Chengxun boasted, "Our boss also went all out. He only worked on the release of "Twilight 3" for two months before and after, concentrating all the resources at hand, and even determined to lose money, just hoping that the two companies can cooperate for a long time."

Wang Quan waved his hand, "It's not okay to lose money. If our partners don't make money, that's our failure."

"It's definitely profitable," Bai Chengxun added hurriedly, "As long as the number of movie viewers reaches 2 million, it will be profitable. Now it seems that it may be more than double."

Whether it can reach 4 million moviegoers depends on the impact of this week's "Terminator 2018". The male protagonist of this movie is King Power's good friend Batman Bale, and the heroine is also King Power's good "friend" Bryce... Dallas Howard, the other actor of "Avatar" plays the second male lead.

Audiences in Kimchi Country are very fond of this old IP. In North America, Terminator and Twilight are not on the same level at all, but it is hard to say who is stronger in Kimchi Country.

Afterwards, Wang Quan and his party were arranged to stay at the Shilla Hotel, which is a property of the Samsung Group and is currently managed by the eldest princess of Samsung, Li Fuzhen.

Wang Quan entered the room and dialed a number, "My room number is 1212. Come up."

After a while, Wang Quan opened the door and let Clara in.

Before, she would have jumped directly into Wang Quan's arms, but after these few days of assistant training, she became sensible and made sure there was no one else in the room before throwing herself into Wang Quan's arms.

Now that she has officially taken up the position of assistant to Wang Quan and Kimchi Country, she will be responsible for all cooperation and communication between Wang Quan and Kimchi Country NEW Company, which can reduce Li Xian's workload.

Clara actually doesn't know much about the national conditions of Kimchi Country. She grew up in Europe and the United States, but at least she retains her language skills, which is enough for the royal power.

Wang Quan didn't make out with her right away because he had to meet someone later.

Wang Quan told her that Jin Yuze, the president of NEW Company, would be coming over later.

Clara’s expression changed slightly, “Oppa, you are not going to give me away to others, I won’t do it.”

It seems that she has been in the entertainment industry of Kimchi Country for a while and has a certain understanding of the customs here.

Wang Quan smiled, "What are you thinking about? Do you think I will be willing to let it go? We are just talking about things normally, and the other party wants something from me. Shouldn't they be the ones who give me women?"

Clara felt relieved. She grew up in Europe and the United States, and her family was not too poor to take the blame. She was not as submissive as the Kimchi people.

Jin Yuze gave Wang Quan some time to rest and came to visit him an hour later. During this period, Wang Quan also found time to write the script.

When Clara opened the door, she saw a middle-aged man in his forties, followed by Bai Chengxun from before.

Bai Chengxun was also a little surprised. Why was there suddenly a beautiful woman in the monitor's room? She was called a call girl?

When the other party came to our door, he turned out to be from his own country. Bai Chengxun winked at the chairman and said that he didn't know it before.

"President Jin, please have a seat."

"Director Wang, it's a pleasure to meet you. It must be hard to travel all the way." Jin Yuze's attitude was very low. Not to mention his small NEW company, even CJ Entertainment and Long Toutou were incomparable.

Wang Quan got straight to the point, "We had a phone call before and asked Chairman Jin what he thought of Long Toutou's investment in the company."

"We definitely welcome it, this is the share~" This company does not belong to Jin Yuze alone, there are several forces behind it, so he cannot give too much. He wants to ensure his control over the company.

King Power, “How about 20%.”

"Ah, this is too much, too much!" He thinks 10% is more appropriate, and it cannot exceed 15 points at most.

Wang Quan, "NEW definitely cannot continue to be a distributor and must turn to production. I prepared a script outline before coming here. If Chairman Kim is willing to cooperate, I will create another one and submit two script outlines for 20% of the total. The valuation of shares can be appropriately increased.”

I heard that Wang Quan can provide two script outlines. Although they are just outlines and not complete scripts, it is also good. Wang Quan is a foreigner and does not understand the local conditions. Even if he actually writes the script, they will have to adapt it before it can be used. So The outline is very good, and Wang Quan’s script writing ability is obvious to all around the world.

Jin Yuze was obviously moved, but he needed to discuss the 20% share with other shareholders. However, he felt that with the script of Wang Quan and the current momentum of Long Toutou, no one should object.

Wang Quan also understood that he didn't expect to get the answer today. He wouldn't leave until tomorrow.

"President Jin, let me tell you these two stories first," Wang Quan said. "The first script is a ghost story, but it is a funny and heartwarming ghost story. I like this story very much. If it weren't for our Chinese I definitely won’t be able to give it to you to take pictures of ghosts.”

Bai Chengxun laughed when he heard this. The class monitor often complained about this rule when he was in school.

Then Wang Quan told a story about an unlucky guy who was haunted by four ghosts. Many details were taken into consideration. Jin Yuze found that Wang Quan still had a certain understanding of Kimchi Country. Many of the plots made him feel the same way. Could it be because of his woman? assistant?

And when the final truth of this story was revealed, Jin Yuze, Bai Chengxun and Clara all said "Ah", it turned out to be like this, wonderful!

The emotional Clara even had a sore nose and slightly red eye circles. The man who can tell stories is really attractive.

"This story is called "Happy Family", and I recommend Cha Tae-hyun to play it."

Jin Yuze nodded repeatedly, "He looks like a very unlucky guy, and he also has great box office appeal."

Next, Wang Quan told the second story, "In fact, Kimchi Country was not considered at the beginning of this story. I prepared it for Jiahe Company."

Hearing Jiahe, Jin Yuze looked very respectful. This brand is too strong in Asia. For people like Jin Yuze, when they were young, there were several box-office hits in Xiangjiang movies almost every year, and most of these movies came from Jiahe.

Wang Quan continued, "But Kimchi Country also has a strong atmosphere of a police drama. I think we can enjoy both. Golden Harvest and NEW will write scripts and shoot them separately with the same outline. They can also distribute to each other at that time."

Jin Yuze slapped the table, "Wonderful!"

Next, Wang Quan told the outline of the story. This is a story about a policeman taking a reading criminal to help him catch a bigger reading dealer. Because he really doesn’t know much about the national conditions of Kimchi Country, the version told by Wang Quan is basically the original version of Xiangjiang. 's "Drug War".

Later, Kimchi Film Company also adapted "Drug War", and it was very successful at the box office, with more than 5 million moviegoers. It can be seen that this story can also be established in Kimchi Country, but more changes are needed.

Jin Yuze felt that he could shoot "Happy Family" first, which is easier to shoot, and then shoot "Drug War". Gunfight and gangster movies have higher requirements on funds and technical personnel.

Wang Quan's straightforwardness made Jin Yuze feel that he didn't even belong to the East Asian Confucian cultural circle. It seemed that he had brought back the Hollywood style of acting. It had only been a few minutes. Did this determine the future of a company?

20% of the shares have basically been determined. The next step is to look at the valuation. The current NEW company is not worth much, not to mention the two scripts of King Quan. This also needs to be calculated.

Jin Yuze has left, leaving Baek Chengxun to take Wang Quan to participate in tonight's movie promotion event to help the movie box office reach a higher level, and he must accompany him in the future.

The movie fan meeting will be held in the IMAX giant screen auditorium of CGV Cinema Longshan store.

CGV Cinemas is a subsidiary of CJ Entertainment. It is not only the largest cinema company in Kimchi Country, but also entered the mainland market in 2006. It will be an important competitor of Golden Harvest Cinemas in Asia.

The cinema was crowded with young men and women, especially women. The general audience was still more interested in the three leading actors. Wang Quan gave up the identity of the protagonists and let them interact with the fans. He stood aside and chatted with Girls' Generation. Surrounded by nine beautiful girls, this feeling is simply not good.

When promoting movies in other countries, it is common practice to invite local celebrities to stand up. Although Girls' Generation debuted two years ago and their song "GEE" became popular throughout Asia at the beginning of the year, the film industry is still beyond their reach.

Fans may pursue actors and idols more, but as idols, they know that directors and capital are the ones worthy of their pursuit, so their attitude towards the kingship is also very enthusiastic, with a hint of awe in the enthusiasm~
