The name of "Zhongwu Road" in South Korea is similar to "Hollywood" in the United States. Both are synonymous with movies. If you catch a pedestrian on the road and ask him, "Where can represent the Korean film industry?", then he will definitely point you in the direction of Zhongwu Road.

Whenever you talk about movies in Korea, people will think of Chungwu Road, just like when you talk about movies in the United States, you will think of Hollywood. This street located in the center of Seoul has a close "equal relationship" with Korean movies. Since the 1960s, Chungwu Road has gathered dense theaters and film production institutions. This place is not only regarded as an important distribution center for the local film production industry in South Korea, but also as a weather vane for the development of Korean movies.

Chungwu Road is a street located in the central part of Seoul, South Korea. It starts from Ligu Road in Jongno-gu to Jungju, to the south and Tuihe Road in Myeongdong shopping district. Chungwu Road is named after the posthumous title of General Lee Sun-sen, a famous anti-Japanese general in the 16th century. It is the most famous pet street and movie street in Seoul, especially the latter. In addition, Seoul landmark Sejong Hotel and the Korean Theater (that is, the renamed jhj Cinema) are also located in Chungwu Road. Although it is less than two kilometers long, it gathers dozens of film production companies and theaters of all sizes.

There are a large number of shooting scenes here, such as the construction of some indoor scenes in "The Fraud" that Jung Hyukjae is filming, which is on the shooting set on Chungwu Road. Not only that, Chungwu Road has always been a large number of directors and is known as the "Hollywood" in South Korea, so it has become synonymous with the Korean film industry. The annual "Zhongwu Road International Film Festival" is named after it.

There are more than 20 large and small film companies and film equipment stores near 3rd Street, Zhongwu Road, and more than ten cinemas and theaters. All kinds of people in the film industry gather here to maintain the prosperity of the film industry. From producers to screenwriters to directors, the most in short supply is film practitioners.

Like the latter part of these movies, almost all artists and stars want to stand on Zhongwu one day, because that day means they are recognized by the movie, and they are treated completely differently from a small screen on the big screen.

Kim Tae-hee, Jun Ji-hyun, and Gao Xiao-young are all famous beauties. They all have enviable figures and beautiful faces. Although they have been active on big and small screens for a long time, few people include them among the top stars because they all have one common weakness, that is, their acting skills are mediocre.

Like Xue Jingqiu, Song Kanghao, Huang Zhengmin and veteran An Shengji, these people are ordinary people with poor appearance. However, they can earn a box office record with their outstanding acting skills while also winning various awards. These two types of actors are not a small number of Korean film industry. The former is a star and the latter is an actor. In the minds of many Korean movie fans, stars and actors are different. Therefore, some people divide today's Korean movie actors into two factions. One is called the "Zhongwu Road School" and the other is the "College Road School".

Seoul's University Road is a gathering place for the top universities in South Korea. In addition to students, there are also many celebrity artists. South Korea's largest drama performance stage is located on University Road, and many artists choose the drama stage as a training venue at the beginning of their debut. If you have the opportunity to perform here, it is easy to win some popularity. In addition, performing on the drama stage, although there are not many audiences, it can greatly exercise the actors' performance skills. Ahn Sung-ki, Park Chong-hoon, Bae Doona, Yoo Ji-tae, Kim Hye-soo and Liang Dong-gen all go to the big screen through this.

Many actors said that the reason why they still love the drama stage of the university road after becoming famous is because only here can they truly come down to act and not care about reputation gains and losses. Xue Jingqiu once described it like this: "Only by standing on the drama stage of the university road, you know what a real performance is. After the movie starts, you can ng it many times, but when the drama starts, you must treat it meticulously." This is why many powerful movie masters have always loved the drama stage.

There is a saying in the Korean entertainment industry: "If you want to become famous, go to Zhongwu Road. If you want to become a powerful actor, go to college." But that's it, Zhongwu Road has always been a place that entertainment stars dream of. Newcomers who have not entered the entertainment industry are far from understanding the meaning of the title of "Zhongwu Road".

For the convenience of work, Zheng Hyukjae also set up an office on Zhongwu Road. The main work content is roughly to collect some information or receive project books submitted by some filmmakers. Then, after selection, it is for Zheng Hyukjae to view.

Although the actors all say that those who came from "Zhongwu Road" are idols, there is no such view on the director. Every year, several new directors appear on the Zhongwu Road, and Virgos can attract countless audiences to be popular. Last year, Park Kwang-hyun was counted for "Welcome to Dongmo Village", and this year, Kim Dae-woo, who won the Best New Director Award for "Luxury. Chaos Scholar" is also counted for "Ashes".

Of course, when it comes to the above two, this year, a newcomer in the Zhongwu Road film industry has to be mentioned, that is, Jung Hyukjae. Although he has not yet been tested by the audience and the market, the jhjfilm he founded has disrupted the Korean film industry.

Like "Double Spy" in 2003 and "Tai Chi Flag Flying" in 2004, Shubo's most successful investment was Shobo. However, Shubo's focus has always been on the release of movies at home and abroad, so there are not many movies in the investment and production. So far, there are only two movies. But when it comes to the number of movies they release, there are too many movies. However, it is still a bit too small to watch compared to the giant cj entertainment in the film industry. After all, the strength of CJ entertainment is on top, but it is absolutely okay to rank second in terms of the specific number of releases.

"You go and call Team Leader Zhao from the distribution team to come here."

In the shobo company on Zhongwu Road, a middle-aged man hurried to a staff member and instructed him.

"Yes, Director Han!" The subordinate nodded immediately after seeing the visitor, and then ran all the way to call someone.

Back in his office, Director Han pulled his neck tie, took off his suit jacket and threw it on the sofa, poured a glass of water from the water dispenser, and stood in front of the bright floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the scenery outside the window and the bustling crowd downstairs. However, no matter how good the scenery outside the window was, it could not smooth out his frown brows, as if there were many worries in his heart.

"Da da!"

When Director Han heard someone knocking on the door of his office, he came to his senses and said, "Enter!"

"Director Han, I heard you call me." As he said, Team Leader Zhao walked in, touched the door gently, placed his arms vertically on both sides of his body, and asked respectfully.

"Sit down, there's nothing I'm here just to know something from you."

After hearing Director Han's words, Team Leader Zhao sat carefully on the sofa, with his waist straight and couldn't help but lick his dry lips to relieve the pressure in his heart. After all, the Director Han in front of him was not as easy as others.

"Tell me about the recent movie release. I haven't come to the company recently so I want to know about it." Director Han said as he looked at Team Leader Zhao in front of him. A trace of deep meaning was hidden in his eyes.

Hearing Director Han’s question, Team Leader Zhao felt a little relieved. After all, this belongs to his professional aspects. From the theme of the movie to the selected audience to the market data, we can speak out. "Our company is responsible for the release of only one film "Barefoot Jifeng", which is a warm and tear-jerking movie. In terms of the viewerable movie, the movie belongs to all ages. It has just been released for a week. At present, the audience still recognizes this movie, and it is very good in terms of reputation and box office."

Listening to Team Leader Zhao, Director Han nodded slightly, but he quickly noticed a movie of the same period on the statistics table in his hand, "Which company released the movie "Life and Death"?"

"Mkpitures, the movie level is over 18 years old. The movie is rising very strongly, but it does not conflict with our movies in terms of audiences." Team leader Zhao was afraid that Director Han would misunderstand the box office gap between the two movies, so he immediately spoke up to explain.

Distribution work is an extremely tedious task. From the initial market positioning of a movie to the formulation of publicity strategies before and after the movie is released, all of which require the distribution company to adjust according to the actual situation, and cannot be meticulously completed according to the original template. Therefore, in many cases, the final box office of a movie, the distribution company's ability accounts for more than 40% of the box office performance. A powerful distribution company in the industry plays a great role in the box office of the movie.

After listening to Team Leader Zhao's explanation, Director Han nodded slightly without comment. The more he had such an attitude, the less confident the Team Leader Zhao in front of him was, and he didn't know what his destiny would be waiting for him next.

"Team Leader Zhao?" Director Han suddenly shouted his name.

"Hey!" Team Leader Zhao immediately reacted, "You said!"

"Have you ever heard of jhjfilm?" Director Han asked.

"I have heard of "The King's Man" was invested in and filmed by this company..." Team Leader Zhao said, but he still couldn't understand what Director Han suddenly asked this for.

"This company has started filming many movies recently. Have you mentioned the release to them?" When he said this, Director Han's expression suddenly changed. Although there was a smile on his mouth, those who know her temper knew that the brighter the smile on Director Han's mouth, the more violent the storm he would wait for him next.

Hearing Director Han say this, small sweat beads on Team Leader Zhao's forehead immediately emerged from the lower layer of his skin, scrambling to slide down his cheeks, his shoulders trembled constantly, showing his fear, "Director Han... Listen to my explanation, this is actually the case of "For Horowitz" released by our company, which is not going to be released. Recently, I have been busy with the formulation of publicity plans before the movie is released, and "Jingyi Line" also needs..."

Speaking of this, Team Leader Zhao glanced at the expression on Director Han's face in front of him, and found in horror that his face was becoming more and more gloomy. Seeing this, he already understood what he had done wrong. When the leader said he was wrong, he should not explain. All he needed to do was admit his mistake. Even if this was not his mistake, he would take the blame for the leader.

In fact, Team Leader Zhao, who has been struggling in society for more than ten years, naturally understands these principles, but in a hurry, he threw them behind his mind.

"Director Han, I was wrong!" Team leader Zhao immediately spoke.

Seeing his reaction, Director Han's face recovered a little, but his eyes were still cold when he looked at Team Leader Zhao. "I heard that CJ Entertainment and Lotte Film and Television are scrambling for the distribution rights of "The Fraud", "Hanjiang Monster" and "Beautiful Worries". You can contact jhjfilm in time, and at least you have to win the distribution rights for a movie for the company. If it cannot be completed, then go to the distribution team to continue to do business!"

"Yes!" Team Leader Zhao agreed at once. Even if he didn't agree, there was no way for him to do something wrong. It was just that the distribution rights were as simple as moving the mouth. Everyone knows the cooperative relationship between jhjfilm and cj entertainment and lotte film and television. It is extremely difficult to grab food from these two companies.

"Director Han, then I'll go out first..." Team Leader Zhao said in a low voice.

"kindness!"

Director Han waved his hand and signaled that he could go out. Team leader Zhao came out of the office and then dared to reach out and wipe the sweat beads on his forehead. But when he thought of his next task, his eyebrows were tightened together. This was not a task assigned to him. This was clearly an impossible natural barrier!

At the same time, distribution companies of all sizes in the Korean Chungwu Road film circle also targeted Zheng Hyukjae and his jhjfilm at this time. For a time, jhjfilm became a hot commodity in the eyes of many distribution companies...
