Chapter 652 Looking for the script

Obviously, the concert storm about Kim Jong-kwon will last for a long time, but Kim Jong-kwon himself has escaped from that excited state.

He is now drinking cold beer at home and examining the scripts in front of him.

That's right, it's the script!

Because it was not long before the deadline for him to terminate the contract with CJ Entertainment, Kim Jong-kwon, who was already itchy, began to look for a good script suitable for him to shoot. After almost a full year of rest, he began to miss the time when he was tired of filming. I have to say that some things are always cherished until they are lost.

As Kim Jong-kwon announced that the one-year period of "rest" was approaching, someone had already started to contact him and test his situation. After all, the conflict between him and CJ is no longer a big secret. Even many fans and netizens have guessed the grudges and revenge between the two parties to eight or nine.

By the day when Kim Jong-kwon's "come out", CJ was undoubtedly a hurdle that he could not overcome. Moreover, as Kim Jong-kwon's status and popularity became higher and higher, CJ's attitude became a little ambiguous. Now, if Kim Jong-kwon wants to completely destroy him, the price he paid was ten times hundred times that of a year ago.

Many people who know the inside story think that CJ is likely to not hold Kim Jong-kwon and refuse to let go. After all, CJ wanted to plot against him at the beginning, but he saw it through. Kim Jong-kwon paid a lot to get out.

From this point of view, Kim Jong-kwon was undoubtedly completely passively beaten, and his breakup with CJ was just for self-protection, although the methods were a little more intense.

But it is impossible to just look at right or wrong in everything. If that is the case, there will be no more bloody stories than third-rate bloody dramas in reality.

Therefore, what kind of attitude does CJ look like after the contract expires is still an unsolved mystery, which also makes many guys who are jealous of Kim Jong-kwon's popularity hesitate.

On the one hand, I was worried that CJ would continue to stumbling, and Qinglong and Bai Xiang's dirty filth is still vivid in my mind.

On the other hand, I am worried that others will take the initiative to attack first. After all, people’s energy is limited, and publishing two or three works a year is considered to be quite productive.

Moreover, judging from Kim Jong-kwon's previous brilliant achievements, he usually shoots a movie and a TV series in a year, and only two works are done in full swing. He is really quick and slow.

Now Kim Jong-kwon has become a guarantee of ratings and a box office elixir. Who can not be jealous of the box office?

Therefore, after eliminating those who are still hesitant, Kim Jong-kwon still received a lot of scripts and audition invitations, of course, in private, because he is still an actor of CJ Entertainment on the surface, so everything can only be kept low.

After this period of sorting out, Kim Jong-kwon roughly determined three scripts. Including the "The Character of a Gentleman", which he was about to write, there were 4 choices placed in front of him.

First of all, "The Character of a Gentleman" is a TV series, and he wrote it carefully himself, so this must be filmed, and he is also planning to do a big move, which is not mentioned for the time being.

The remaining three scripts, no, should be considered as two and a half scripts, both have eye-catching advantages, which makes him a little confused.

First of all, there are two complete scripts, one called "Ghost Country". The name is so sarcastic that it seems to be a horror movie, a ghost movie, etc. At the beginning, Kim Jong-kwon was also confused by this name. He was not interested in such movies, but he still opened it based on the principle of dedication.

Kim Jong Kwon was really glad that he didn't throw this script aside directly at that time, otherwise he would have missed a masterpiece.

And the most interesting thing is that the person who submitted the script to him was not invited to act, but to invest. There is no such thing as "the male lead" in the entire script.

Because the things in "Ghost Country" tells about have nothing to do with ghosts, but some creatures described here that cannot be called "humans" are even more terrifying than ghosts!

The whole script revolves around a noun to tell the story.

Wei Anfu (not a typo...)

That’s right, what we are telling is these inhumane evil things that Neon Kingdom did in Asia during World War II!

And it was the truth restored based on real history after the personal descriptions of the victims who had been fed up with persecution!

Although director Zhao Tinglai had long been determined to shoot this story and had even completed the script in 2002, he could not attract any investment for such sensitive subjects. Some wealthy patriots were willing to fund him. However, after the news came out, Neon launched various threats, forcing these people to withdraw their investments.

On the contrary, director Zhao Tinglai has always been calm and unshakable no matter what threat he faces.

But a clever woman is hard to cook without rice. She cannot make a movie without funds and cannot restore this real history. 9 years have passed, and director Zhao Tinglai has been busy with this movie. The reason why he invested in scripts for Kim Jong-kwon was just one of his goals. It is naturally good to have a reward, and it is not necessary to force it.

It was thanks to this inefficient "begging alms" that he actually raised more than 20,000 people to crowdfund!

This was simply incredible. When Park Sang-cheol, who came back from investigation, told him the news, Kim Jong-kwon was in a state of silence. Even if he heard it with his own ears and confirmed it himself, it was hard to imagine how he did it.

However, although crowdfunding for more than 20,000 people sounds like a lot, the amount of donations is obviously not large, and making movies is not that simple, especially for such blockbusters with a strong historical atmosphere, the funding gap is still very large, not even one-third is enough.

So, Kim Jong-kwon hesitated...

On the one hand, he admired Zhao Tinglai's insistence, and he also had no good impression of that country.

But on the other hand, this country was punished by God not long ago. Now is the most sad and painful period. Kim Jong-kwon is not sure what impact this movie will have after it was announced. No matter what, ordinary people are innocent. At this time, they choose to sprinkle salt on their wounds. Whether this "studying the wrong" approach is really appropriate is what makes him hesitate.

If he had changed his period, he would definitely choose to support him without hesitation, but he was a little confused about what to do now.
