Chapter 102 The hard-working new director

"Director" is a profession that sounds extremely tall. It seems that as long as the director opens his mouth, girls who want to become famous will immediately spread their legs and let them be ravaged.

Of course, this director also needs to be divided into many situations, from MV to advertisements, or even a promotional film about local scenery. These all require the director. However, can such a director match the image that ordinary audiences think of?

Obviously not, because such a director is too low and has been low. No matter what acting stars are talking about, handsome men and beautiful women, the investment will be at least billions, right?

Well, in fact, there are too many viewers who directly position the director's profession as a film director. However, in fact, there are still not many film directors in South Korea who can be named. More of them are MV directors and TV advertising directors who are struggling to various TV stations, earning a little money and hoping to realize their big screen dream one day.

If you go to Zhongwu Road, you will understand the status of the Korean film industry. That is how you can really make you "directors walk around the ground, and there are as many screenwriters as dogs." Of course, this sentence is more or less derogatory, although it is indeed the case.

Compared with Korean dramas, Korean movies started much earlier, and have gone through a long history to develop to this state today. In the early 1900s, Korean movies were mainly released in the form of short films, and corresponding short film theaters were also formed.

History entered the 1970s, television entered an ordinary family, and the film industry entered a period of recession. However, during this period, best-selling films such as "The Hometown of Stars" and "Winter Girl" depicting the love stories of young people still appeared.

In the 1980s, the Korean film industry began to revive. Awards were won successively at international film festivals, and the international reputation of Korean films was improved. It was during this period of the 20th century that Korean films gradually flourished, mainly relying on the support of the local film industry in South Korea. After the 1990s, Korean films developed rapidly and a large number of high-level masterpieces appeared.

"Ginkgo Bed" in 1996, "Life and Death Change", "Common Guard Zone" in 2000, Korean movies "My Savage Girlfriend", "My Wife is a Big Boss", "Friends", etc., "Going Home", "Drunk Painting Fairy", etc., and a large number of movies have provided great spiritual support for the recovery of the Korean film industry.

Just like all industries, the glory will always belong to only a few people at the top of the industry. In the director industry, there are more young directors who are waiting for opportunities on TV stations. They shoot MVs and commercials for their dreams of big screen directors.

Park Gwang Hyun was one of them. Almost one-six of the various fried chicken advertisements and beer advertisements played on TV came from him. During that time, he also became the professional "fried chicken beer" owner whom everyone called him, relying on such advertisements to survive.

After taking on so many advertisements, he should have saved a lot of savings, but if he checked his passbook, it would be less than 10 million, which is his entire net worth. He has been a TV commercial director for so many years, so he should not be so miserable, but reality is so cruel and ruthless.

It should be said that every director has a big screen dream in his heart. Park Guang-hyun also hopes that he can direct a movie and a blockbuster. Since he chose this industry, film directors have always been his dream in his heart.

In 2002, he finally had such an opportunity to direct the movie "The Four Rooms' Crystal Enemy". Although this movie consists of three stories and he directed it only one of them, it was enough to make him excited. After all, after waiting for so many years, he finally had the opportunity to take charge of the crew and shoot the story he wanted in his heart.

The final release of "The Four Rooms' Rumble" was not very good, and it can also be said that the environment in the Korean film industry is not very good. Among the movies shot every year, only one of the four can make money.

After "The Four Rooms' Rumble", Park Guanghyun is still an advertising director. From SBS to KBS to MBC, it seems that every TV station has him, waiting for the next opportunity to come.

While filming the commercial, Park Guanghyun has been polishing the script he created. This is a movie script that has been carefully prepared for nearly two years. In his opinion, it looks like his own child.

Park Gwang Hyun has been doing these things by creating and polishing scripts, investing script resumes to major film companies, and attracting investment.

Everything cannot be done as he wishes. The film production company that agreed to invest in does not recognize his director's resume. What they hope is to take away the script and find a director with a richer resume to direct the movie. Park Guanghyun naturally objected to this point.

Since the end of October last year, Park Guang-hyun has been negotiating with major film production companies, but the results of the negotiations are not so satisfactory. He couldn't get any investment. He was so excited that he invested the 2 billion he had accumulated over the years into filming. In the first preparations of a month, from equipment to the selection of actors, he only had one requirement. When the shooting conditions were met, he could save as much as possible. Who made this a poor crew?

The film decided to start filming in February, but after Park Gwang Hyun's repeated calculations, the film's budget is still a big hole. After his repeated calculations, if the final film reaches the effect he wants, the production cost will be at least 1.5 billion. With his own investment, it will be almost 4 billion. In Korean movies, it can also be considered a small and medium-sized film.

But the most important thing is, where to find investors?

Despite Park Guanghyun's repeated affirmation and swearing, film production companies of all sizes still dare not put more than one billion yuan on him, a new director. Anyone who has seen his resume knows that Park Guanghyun's screening results of "The Four Rooms' Rumble" directed by Park Guanghyun is definitely not excellent. Although the reason for the average results of this movie cannot be blamed entirely on Park Guanghyun, it is enough to deny his plans and proposals.

For two weeks, from CJ to ShowBox to NEW to Lotte, there were very few companies that agreed to, and most of the rest were formulaic answers, "Park Gwang Hyunxi, please go back and wait patiently for a while. We will answer you within a week after discussion."

Park Gwang Hyun had already given up on these production companies. Looking at the list of film production companies on the table full of contact information and contact addresses, his first idea was to knead it into a ball and throw it into the trash can.

Perhaps because he didn't give up, he wanted to contact one last time, Park Gwang Hyun dialed the next phone number...

....................................................................

"Park Gwang Hyunxi, I really didn't expect that our first meeting would be launched in this way." Seeing the visitor, Jung Hyun-jae stood up and shook hands with him, she said with a smile.

"Do you know me?" Although the person in front of him looked a few years younger than him, Park Guanghyun spoke very well. After all, the financial support in front of him cannot be offended, and the official filming of his video is indispensable.

"Of course I know. When I was in school, we took out the movie "The Four Rooms' Rumble" for appreciation. In the movie, the short story "My Nike" directed by Park Gwang Hyunxi was our favorite one at that time."

Jung Hyukjae's words compliments are half true and half false. He has indeed seen the movie "The Four Rooms' Rumble" and has a deep impression of the plot of the story. However, when it comes to his favorite story "The Four Rooms' Rumble" which has the same name as the film.

"I didn't expect you to be a director major?" Park Kwang Hyun's tone was a little excited. Although the two of them were not from the same school, their identities as both directors were recognized by him.

Jung Hyukjae waved his hand and explained with a smile: "It's not true to be a director major, but I can be considered as a director's business by accident."

Seeing how he said it easily, Park Gwang-hyun in front of him listened carefully. After a while, he felt that the person in front of him became more and more familiar with him. He seemed to have seen him on TV recently.

When Jung Hyun saw Park Gwang Hyun staring at him, he looked confused and said, "Jung Hyun, his pen name is 'Jun Woo'."

"oh!"

After hearing what he said, Park Gwang-hyun finally remembered why the name "Jung Hyun-jae" is so familiar. Isn't this the protagonist of the "SBS Acting Awards" some time ago? But before SBS TV could suppress the shady remarks of netizens online, everyone's attention was attracted by the "X Files" incident.

There has been no news about him for almost a month. Some people say that Jung Hyukjae has resigned from SBS TV, and some people say that SBS TV gave him some compensation and he disappeared.

Park Gwang Hyun looked at the living Jung Hyukjae in front of her and couldn't help but sigh.

"I don't mind if I ask, actually I've been curious about Jung Hyuk-jae's recent situation." Park Gwang Hyun said.

"I resigned from SBS TV some time ago and have been preparing for the preliminary preparations for the film production company recently." Jung Hyukzai replied with a smile, briefly talking about his recent situation.

"I don't know if I've read the script for you. Do I need me to introduce the plot outline?"

When the negotiations were officially entered, Park Gwang Hyun asked Jung Hyun seriously.

Although I have read the script once, Jung Hyun might as well understand Park Gwang Hyun’s understanding and understanding of his own writing scripts. This is both an experience and a rare insight for Jung Hyun.
