Chapter one thousand and thirteen empty joy

(ps: It's 4 o'clock soon. At this moment, I wish I could be a full-time writer so that I could sleep until I woke up naturally, but I was just dreaming, maybe I could look forward to the next book? Sorry, I fell asleep accidentally just now and dreamed again...)

Kim Jong-kwon didn't expect that not only did the acquisition of popular IPs make progress, but even the excellent original scripts were created by So Ji-sup, so he couldn't help but get a little excited!

And there is a reason why he is excited...

In Korea, there are many original scripts, and many directors like to write and direct, and the sentence "Essential" and "Odd" seems to be more vivid in Korea.

Many talented new directors get the opportunity to make a name for themselves by being a screenwriter first. In this way, many directors like to conceive stories and shoot them by themselves.

Therefore, many excellent scripts are fundamentally "non-sale products"! It is almost impossible to buy them. The only way is to cooperate and invest in this director and let him shoot it himself.

Another thing is some weird things about the Korean system. Generally, the price of a new screenwriter writing a movie script is between 15 million and 20 million (about 90,000 to 120,000 soft girl coins), but the production company only pays them 3 million to 5 million won in advance. Then the screenwriter starts creating according to the requirements of the production company, and the rest has to wait for the film to start production before getting it. If the project is miscarried, the screenwriters will be in vain!

What’s even more funny is that it often takes more than a year to create a brand new project, but the screenwriters can only use this little money to support it and face the crisis of the project’s final miscarriage to create.

Not only will the time and energy of making a comeback be wasted, but it will be difficult to get even the royalties!

If you are trapped in a project for three or four years without any other income, it is not impossible to be trapped to death directly.

Just at the beginning of 2011, there was a real example that happened!

The 32-year-old female screenwriter Choi Goeun was trapped in the project and had no other income. Finally, she died in a monthly rented house due to illness and starvation, shocking the whole of South Korea!

The autopsy report said that he died without eating for several consecutive days...

What a ironic that a female screenwriter who is talented and unable to show her ideals and ambitions is starved to death!

In contrast, the screenwriters who signed contracts with the company are more secure, and they can get a monthly salary, at least they won’t starve to death. However, relative, creative freedom will inevitably be limited.

So it is precisely this situation that Kim Jong-kwon is so happy after seeing so many finished scripts!

Logically speaking, those screenwriters who have become famous should have their own contracted companies and should usually write scripts according to the company's requirements. So it is really surprising that they can still produce "private goods" in this case.

Kim Jong-kwon couldn't wait to pick up the "The Lord's Sun" placed on it first, and then started to read it.

After a while, he temporarily put it down, and then picked up another book "The Heirs" and started to read it carefully.

Finally, there is the following book "You from the Stars"...

"All TV drama scripts?" Kim Jong-kwon asked in disappointment.

He thought So Ji-seok really gave him a surprise, but he didn't expect that the original script was an original script, and the famous screenwriter was also a screenwriter. But the problem is that all these three books are TV series scripts!

So Ji-seop immediately said unhappy: "A good movie screenwriter has changed careers and become directors! If you can pick up the script from them, you will be my brother in the future!"

Kim Jong-kwon thought about it, good movie scripts are rare. More than 10,000 movie scripts are written every year in South Korea, but only about 150 movies can be played on the big screen in the end. How cruel is this ratio!

The scripts that were eliminated must have many excellent works of dust-filled, but so what can it be done? Not everyone has such a "talent".

Fortunately, there are several popular IPs in front that can be adapted into movies, which makes Kim Jong-kwon not so depressed.

Moreover, when reading these scripts, "Inspiration" gave corresponding fragmentary pictures, which proves that these three works have potential, and seem to have a lot of potential!

Thinking of this, Kim Jong-kwon immediately said: "These are very excellent works. Don't let others get cheap. Let's digest internally first, and then cast the rest publicly."

He is such a person. If he has any good things to think about his own people in advance, he doesn’t care whether it is fair to others!

"To say it? This is the work of the Hong sisters, screenwriter Kim Eun-sook, and screenwriter Park Ji-eun! Do you know how much it cost to buy these three scripts? You still think this or that!"

Kim Jong-kwon immediately coughed awkwardly. Among the three, Park Ji-eun's reputation was slightly worse, but he was also a first-line screenwriter. It is impossible to buy these three scripts without bleeding. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them.

"It's just a joke, why are you taking it seriously? How has Brother In Sung been doing recently?" Kim Jong-kwon quickly changed the topic.

"In-sung's new drama seems to be almost finished. At that time, he wants to take a break or continue working."

So Ji-seok is not a pedantic person either. He doesn't need to leave his company's people, and he can't do anything stupid to help others do wedding dresses.

Although Kim Jong-kwon doesn't come to the company often, he knows that Cho In-sung is filming "The Wind is Blowing That Winter", so he naturally won't have any comments.

"This "Heirs" Ji Seung and In-sung probably don't like each other. You can leave it to Yu Bin to act. This kid has been trying to get me up for a long time, and this time I can just block his mouth."

The heir, you will know what kind of story you are telling by listening to this word, and you can just throw it to Kim Woo-bin to practice. Kim Jong-kwon is quite concerned about his cheap apprentice.

It doesn't matter that So Ji-seok is a defaulter. He has watched these three scripts more than once. "The Heirs" is not suitable for him at all, and there seems to be no suitable candidate in the company except Kim Woo-bin.

"Do you have any ideas for the remaining two brothers?" Kim Jong-kwon seemed to remember who the boss was, and asked Su Ji-seok's opinion casually.

"From the character image, it seems that the book "You from the Star" is more suitable for me..." So Ji-seok thought about it and said without any certainty.

"And you said that the audience now likes to watch noveler topics, the alien's setting seems to be quite interesting."
