Chapter 2 In Korea (2/5)

After Tang Ren went public, Chen Mengxi was interviewed and said something very optimistic about the market:

"The Chinese film market is an excellent market and maintains an extremely stable growth rate every year!"

"Hollywood has said that the Chinese film market is a gold mine, with market resources five or six times that of the United States, nearly ten times that of Japan, and dozens of times that of South Korea. The saturated market output value should be around 100 billion, and the related market can reach a scale of 2 trillion!"

"In the next ten years, the Chinese film market may reach 35 billion yuan per year, but this market does not necessarily belong to our Chinese film industry, and the European market is also very large, but their market belongs to the American film industry, so we must make movies that meet the tastes of Chinese audiences..."

"The market is becoming more and more open. In the future, local movies, Hollywood movies, Japanese and Korean movies, Indian movies, and European movies will be released in China. We want to make large-scale commercial movies!"

"Learn from Hollywood's big studios, we guarantee that the market will be more than ten movies every year, including two to three big productions..."

Fg stand up first!

Then, he flew to the United States...

He has to stare at the post-production editing of "Hunting".

By the way, I negotiated with Little Little Zi to cooperate on "Unreachable" and "Departure Again" and "Meet You in New York"...

"The Unreachable", Chen Mengxi bought the adaptation rights two years ago, but he did not plan to direct it himself. This film is so simple, and it is adapted by real people. Little Lizi likes it very much. She invited Lang Howard as director and S Studio participated in the investment.

"Departing Again: Meet You in New York", this movie is very unpopular, but it's really good to watch!

Another translation: "Songs Change Life".

A very cliché story is the story of a proud and talented woman and a down-and-out uncle meeting in New York and embarking on a romantic and passionate journey together...

It was the script delivery received by Studio S. David and Nancy liked it very much. It was easy to search. There was a project that would make them like it at the same time. Then I won it and invited Leonardo to play the role of the uncle - he was very happy...

Chen Mengxi's idea, starring Leonardo, can at least ensure that it will not lose money.

After finishing work in the United States, I didn't stop at all and flew directly to South Korea...

Coordinate the release of the Korean version of "Return to Twenty".

...

In recent years, most of the movies made by Chen Mengxi have been released in South Korea.

There are big sellers, such as "Painted Skin", "Those Years", and "My Girls' Generation" - the benchmark for big sellers is that the number of viewers exceeds 300,000...

Don’t underestimate the 300,000 viewers. 300,000 viewers mean a box office of 12.6 million yuan, which is equivalent to the box office results of a province and city in central mainland!

Of course, more sales are not good, but the distributors have not lost money. There are less than 10 theaters released in movies such as "The Maze of Heart" and "Old Boy"…

Satisfy the ideas of some Korean audiences with curiosity.

Since the beginning of the year, Mengxi's partner in South Korea has been replaced by SHOWBOX...

There are four more awesome film companies in South Korea: CJ Entertainment, Lotte Entertainment, SHOWBOX and NEW…

I have a little unpleasant relationship with Xijie, so let’s change it. SHOWBOX is also a good choice. It also has a theater brand under its rank: Megabox theater, ranking second in South Korea…

"Return to Twenty", "Big Man", "Sunshine Sisters" and "Blind Certificate" are all projects that must be released 14 years ago!

"Returning to Twenty" is the opening work, so of course I have high hopes!

The director chose Kang Hyung-cheol—his postponed in "Sunshine Sisters" and the starring found Moon Geun-young...

Investment reached 4.5 billion won!

Don’t underestimate the 4.5 billion won, which is very high, almost half of the production fee in the mainland!

Schedule on December 24th, Christmas!

Korean movies are still not in a good mood this year. So far, only "Avatar" has exceeded 10 million viewers...

The second-ranked "Inception" has fewer viewers than 6 million;

In December this year, the Korean film industry focused on Chen Mengxi, "The Unreserved", "The Yellow Sea" and "Tian Yuzhi" three blockbusters were released...

Encirclement "Return to Twenty"!

"The Unreserved", Korean version of "The True Color of Heroes", starring Joo Jinmo, Song Seung-heon, Cho Hansun, and Kim Kang-woo;

If you don’t know the others, Song Seung-heon will know them!

"Yellow Sea", the director's new work of "The Chaser", continues the old team, directed by Luo Hongjin, screenwriter, starring Kim Yoon-suk, and Ha Jung-woo;

"Tian Yuzhi", adapted from the Korean classical "Tian Yuzhi Biography", directed by Choi Dong-hoon and starring Kang Dong-won and Kim Yoon-suk;

By the way, there is also Yuanbin's "Lonely Agent"...

Originally, Yuan Bin relied on "One Dysfunction Agent" to kill and kill in this death period, establishing his superstar status in one fell swoop!

...

"The promotion is about the adaptation rights bought from China..."

"Koreans like to listen to flattery, so just swear Moon Geun-young is cute..."

Screenwriter No. 2, Chen Dong, interrupted Chen Mengxi: "Why is cute?"

Chen Mengxi turned his head in surprise: "Is Chu Wen Geun-young more beautiful and sexy than Liu Yiyi? Korean audiences are not blind!"

Yes, it is indeed a bit too much for Chu Wen Geun-ying to beat Liu Tianxian...

"By the way, remember to promote that the American Studio S bought the film and television adaptation rights of "Return to Twenty" and will launch the American version next year..."

"Studio S?" Chen Dong was stunned for a moment: "Isn't this our company?"

"If you don't say it, how could Koreans know?"

This is the benefit of having too many small quotations!

Chen Dong thought about it and asked again: "Our "Return to Twenty" was selected as a cultural work of China-Korea friendly exchange... Should this be promoted?"

"There is no need. When we make movies, don't be related to politics!"

This sentence is actually nonsense. Chen Mengxi just knows that there is no benefit in promoting it like this...

"Hangover 2" and "Lost in Thailand" were filmed in Thailand, and they were also widely promoted. Where is the box office?

"Hangover 2" has a box office in Thailand that is not as good as the first one!

"Okay, then I'll promote it like this then...this is enough?"

Chen Mengxi hesitated for a moment: "...I don't know very well what the Korean movie promotion needs to do. You see this arrangement!"

Chen Dong sighed: "In the past, No. 1 was responsible for these..."

"Try to do it. Korean movies focus more on word-of-mouth marketing, and the focus is on the movie itself... By the way, how is the No. 1 now?"

"The Unreserved One is the project he formed..."

"All right."

It’s really that he is in Cao’s camp and his heart is in Han!

——"The Unreserved" is a super bad movie!

The plot is a complete remake of "The True Color of Heroes", and the story is quite exciting and impressive. The innovation of the film lies in introducing the relationship between North and South Korea and deepening the theme.

However, because the two are in different eras, regions, etc., the complete copying makes the movie very far-fetched and artificial, and many places lack logic and authenticity, and cannot stand scrutiny.

No. 1 is such a great person. He actually used such a film to snipe "Return to Twenty"!

Chen Mengxi stood up and said, "Let's go, let's go to the banquet!"

Chen Dong stood up and thought of something: "Do you want to invite a few actresses together? I have an agent's contact number!"

Chen Mengxi looked disgusted: "...Why are you suffering from this disgusting? It's so disgusting!"

"No, I..."

Chen Dong wanted to explain that he had not forgotten his original intention...

Not defeated by the corruption of capitalism, just follow the customs!
