Chapter six hundred and eighty fifth starving ghost
The movie "Ghost Country" is based on the Japanese victim Jiang Rikai. It tells the tragic story of a group of underage girls who were even under 14 years old when Japan invaded North Korea in 1943 and became a tragic story of a group of underage girls who were forcibly taken away by the Japanese army by the Japanese army.
The director, or Zhao Zhenglai, who is walking on the road to becoming a director, is an angry young man with glasses and always has a shy smile on his face.
In a private room at a barbecue restaurant, Kim Jong-kwon was busy filling the meat on the grilled jade. He never expected that this man who smiled very shyly would be reincarnated like a starving ghost. After the two of them had a simple conversation, Kim Jong-kwon suggested eating and talking.
Kim Jong-kwon dared to swear to God. After he said this, Zhao Zhenglai's eyes were definitely shining!
Then it became like this now. The meat disappeared before it was completely roasted. After Kim Jong-kwon's persuasion was fruitless, he could only entertain guests first and assume the responsibility of laying meat into it.
Kim Jong-kwon has always been confident in his barbecue skills, but this time he could only smile bitterly, because no matter how much meat he roasted at one time, it was not enough for Zhao Zhenglai to eat. It took time to roast a slice of pork belly until golden brown. However, it only took a few seconds for Zhao Zheng-kwon to eat a slice of pork belly, and maybe it wouldn't be used for a few seconds, because Kim Jong-kwon couldn't see him chewing, and could only see his throat squirming. It was so terrible!
For such people, no matter how good the barbecue skills are, they will be in vain. Beef chews peonies.
So later Kim Jong-kwon gave up the trouble of mastering the time and heat, picked up a plate of meat and poured it on the baked jade. With the sizzling sound, he pulped it with a clip to make the meat separate. Anyway, Zhao Zhenglai didn't care whether it tasted or was ripe or not!
With this efficiency, Zhao Zhenglai ate for half an hour before he was satisfied and threw the chopsticks on the table, spreading his whole body against the chair, drinking juice to digest food.
Although Zhao Zhenglai is not quite thin, Kim Jong-kwon still offered his own attention gift. It is really rare for such a person who can eat and is so rude, just like a little dinosaur.
Zhao Zhenglai, who was resting, also felt his gaze and smiled shyly, unable to see the starving ghost he had just now.
"Sorry, I'm rude. Because I haven't eaten barbecue for too long, I can't help but eat more."
"You are not greedy for barbecue, but you have never eaten meat in your life!" Kim Jong-kwon complained in his heart with a smile. In the situation just now, this guy was definitely hungry for several days, otherwise how could he kill ten servings of barbecue by himself!
"It's nothing. I'm going to order something more. What else should the director eat?" The table seemed to be as clean as being swept by a strong wind, but Kim Jong-kwon didn't eat anything, so he was going to order something good to comfort his stomach.
It was a polite sentence, but Zhao Zhenglai unexpectedly said, "Then give me another beef tongue."
Kim Jong-kwon's face froze, and he glanced at his round belly with his eyes, which meant "Is it still eaten? You're not afraid of being overwhelmed!"
"Hahaha, that, I'm so embarrassed. Kim Jong-kwon xi was so expensive when we first met. The beef tongue was too expensive. Otherwise, it would be okay to have another pork belly." Zhao Zhenglai continued to say "shy".
Kim Jong-kwon had no choice but to rub his face, then called the waiter to remove all the empty plates, and ordered a lot of things, including the beef tongue he wanted. Anyway, he had already asked for so many things, and it was not a small portion of the beef tongue. Kim Jong-kwon was not stingy, and he could only spend a few bucks on a barbecue. He didn't care if he asked for it every day. What he was afraid of was that Zhao Zhenglai had to hold on to death!
And now he seriously doubts whether Zhao Zhenglai can make this movie well. It is really hard for people to feel relieved in this way.
After the meat came up, Kim Jong-kwon and Cho Jung-lai finally entered the state of "eating while talking", instead of eating!
"Director Zhao..."
"Don't call me a director. Now I am not qualified to be called a director. If you don't dislike me, just call me Zhenglaigo, just be more casual."
"Okay, Zheng Laige, let's talk about the serious business. I believe I have made it clear on the phone before. I am interested in investing in the movie "Ghost Country", so I want to know how much money you have raised now?" Kim Jong-kwon knew that his movie had been raising funds through crowdfunding, but he knew very well that this was very unrealistic and the difficulty was definitely at the hell level!
Sure enough, when asked this question, Zhao Zhenglai hesitated and felt embarrassed to spit out a number "less than 200 million won..."
Kim Jong-kwon immediately frowned. Making a movie is not a playhouse, especially a movie like "Ghost Country" that is destined to be a low-cost. Two hundred million won (about 1.2 million RMB) is just a joke!
But from another perspective, if Zhao Zhenglai crowdfunded the money from the public bit by bit, it would be really admirable.
However, even if he admires him, Kim Jong-kwon is very optimistic about him, because the raising of less than 200 million won took him 9 years!
And if you want to raise all the funds, how many years will it take?
Zhao Jung-lai didn't know, nor did Kim Jong-kwon, but now that Kim Jong-kwon has asked him out, he will not let him wait any longer.
"How much money is there?" Kim Jong-kwon continued.
Zhao Zhenglai's heart tightened, "It's still 2 billion left...or it's okay to have a little less..."
He really didn't want to scare away those who were interested in investing in this movie, but this number was the final result he got after streamlining his budget again and again. If it was less, what he shot was not the effect he wanted.
Although Kim Jong-kwon was prepared, he was also shocked. The 2 billion yuan he opened was indeed a bit beyond his expectations, but it was fine. It was only about one-fifth of his statement every year. Although it hurts a little, he could still easily take it out by gritting his teeth.
"If you shoot according to the expected best plan, you will tell me how much budget you need in the end, because I will not invest more." Since I have to do it, I have to do it to the end. This is always Kim Jong-kwon's style, and the last sentence is also afraid that Zhao Zhenglai will play other tricks with him.
"If the production fee is all, I think 2.5 billion won should be enough, but there is still promotion for release..." Zhao Zhenglai heard the intention of his preparation for investment, and hurriedly said in his heart.
