I want to be a chaebol.

Chapter 186 Opening of Beijing Ancient City Film and Television City
"If Love Is God's Will" has been completed, and Son Ye-jin and Jo In-sung have begun to appear in major variety shows to build momentum for the film.

Son Ye-jin and Jo In-sung also participated in SBS's ace variety show "X-Man" together. Son Ye-jin and Lee Hyori played a confrontation between colleagues on the show. Son Ye-jin cleanly KOed Lee Hyori in the cockfighting match.

This made captain Jiang Hodong couldn't help complaining, "This is not the invincible Lee Hyori! Even if you are cheating, you don't have to be so obvious!"

Lee Hyori couldn't help but laugh at herself, "Son Ye-jin is the first love of Korean men. If I knock her out, I probably won't be able to leave the neighborhood tomorrow, right?"

Son Ye Jin couldn't help but cover her face, "Hyori Unni, don't say that!"

Yoo Jae-seok did not forget to tease Son Ye-jin, "In the drama, the two handsome guys Cho Seung-woo and Jo In-sung are secretly liking you. Doesn't this prove Ye-jin's charm?"

Kang Ho Dong asked Jo In Sung, "In Sung, in the movie, you played Sang Min, who silently likes Song Joo Hee. Which one do you think is happier, loving or being loved?"

Zhao Yincheng glanced at Son Yejin, "Of course love is happier. When you love her, when you see her happy, it will also make you feel happy."

The audience in front of the TV noticed Zhao In-sung's eyes and couldn't help but say, "Did Zhao In-sung fall in love with Son Ye-jin in the drama? His eyes are really affectionate and gentle!"

Cheng Yuli felt that Zhao Yincheng really didn't care about life and death. Everyone knew that Son Yejin was Song Yi's new love, but you actually dared to secretly express your affection for Son Yejin in "X-Man".

"Yizhen, do you agree with Yin Cheng's point of view?" Cheng Yuli said.

Son Ye-jin said: "Love needs to go in both directions to be meaningful. If it is only one-way love, then this kind of love will disappear with time and energy. For example, if Hodong hyung confesses to In-sung, will In-sung feel happy? ?”

As soon as Son Ye Jin said these words, the guests of "X-Man" burst into laughter. Shinhwa Group and Kim Jong Kook were all staggering with laughter, and Lee Hyori, Yoon Eun Hye and Lee Ji Hyun were all laughing together.

Kang Ho-dong said "Yeah", and then expressed his love to Jo In-sung in a funny way, "Yin-sung, Sarah hey!"

Zhao Yincheng finally couldn't restrain himself, "Senior Hodong's love really makes me feel burdened!"

Yoo Jae Suk never forgets to make up for it, "Not only does it make people feel burdened, but it also feels like a heavy love!"

Jo In-sung and Yoo Jae-seok made other guests even more unable to bear it. Son Ye-jin smiled like the moon goddess, with a pair of big eyes shining brightly and a sweet smile that melted the hearts of thousands of fans.The director also focused the camera on Son Ye-jin at the right time, and the ratings of "X-Man" instantly reached the highest level for the period.

Yoo Jae Suk and Sung Yuri also breathed a sigh of relief, and Son Ye Jin cleverly answered Jo In Sung's expression of love.She made it clear that one-sided favorability is meaningless, and only a two-way relationship can be fruitful, and she declined Zhao Yincheng.

Yoo Jae Suk quite admires Jo In Sung. He comes from a grassroots family, is dedicated to his work, and is polite. He doesn't want Jo In Sung's stardom to end abruptly on "X-Man".

After all, New Asia Media Real Estate's current market value has surpassed CJ Entertainment, becoming South Korea's number one entertainment media company, and Song Yi is South Korea's third richest man.Chen Jianxi and Gu Bensheng, who were ranked in front of him, were 30 years older than Song Yi!
Song Yi had not watched this episode. A nefarious employee of New Asia Agency cut out the clips of Zhao In-sung and Son Ye-jin in "X-Man" and sent them to Jin Xiyuan's email address.

After watching the video, Jin Xiyuan said to Song Yi: "I found that some people are just afraid that the world will not be chaotic. They seem to be expecting you to teach Zhao Yincheng a lesson and let him know that the actresses managed by Xinya are not male artists from other companies. They can care about them." of."

Song Yi didn't take this seriously. If a male artist in the Korean entertainment industry expressed his affection for a female artist managed by Xinya, Song Yi would block it. Then he, the richest man in the entertainment industry, would be too cheap.

As long as they don't harass the actresses on the same crew like Lee Byung-hun, he won't interfere in normal filming cooperation.However, Li Byung-hun will probably never have the opportunity to work with the actresses of Xinya Agency in his life.

Song Yi said to Kim Hee-won: "The filming of "Dae Jang Geum" has already started. This is the company's highlight next year, and Tae Hee is also joining the cast for the first time. I have to pay attention to the presidential election during this period. Please help me keep an eye on the crew. Don't Give me some trouble."

The director of this version of "Dae Jang Geum" did not choose the original director Lee Byung-hoon, but hired Lim Kwon-taek, the director of the movie "Chunhyangden".Lin Quanze is good at commercial films such as costumes, wars, and martial arts.

The reason why Song Yi chose director Lin Quanze was also due to Cao Chengyou's recommendation.Cao Chengyou had heard before that New Asia Pictures would produce a costume drama.

Director Lim Kwon-taek won the Best Director at the Cannes International Film Festival this year for his movie "Drunken Painter".After filming "The Drunken Painter", Lin Quanze rested at home.Because Cao Chengyou knew Lin Quanze's profound skills in shooting costume commercial films, he recommended Lin Quanze to Song Yi.

New Asia Pictures will produce this TV series in accordance with the specifications for making movies. For this reason, New Asia Pictures spent nine months building an ancient city of Kaekyung in Fuyang City, replicating the Kaekyung Palace of the Joseon Dynasty one-to-one.

The capital of the Joseon Dynasty was first located in Kaejing, the ancient capital of the Goryeo Dynasty, which was Kaesong in North Korea.Asan Group's Kaicheng Industrial Park project is located in Kaicheng, next to the border dividing line between North and South Korea.

In 1394, Lee's Joseon established its capital in Hanyang City, which was renamed Seoul the following year. It moved back to Kaesong in 1399 and moved its capital to Seoul again in 1405.In the remaining 600 years, Seoul developed from a population of 10 to the international metropolis it is today with a population of [-] million.

Song Yi initially considered building a film and television city in Kaicheng, but considering the uncertain diplomatic relations between North Korea and South Korea, he finally decided to locate the Kaijing Ancient City Film and Television City in Fuyang City.

The predecessor of New Asia Pictures, Shin Cine Communications, is located in Fuyang City. As a satellite city of Seoul City, many small and medium-sized film companies are located in Fuyang City.

Song Yi used to watch Korean costume TV dramas and historical-themed movies, which always gave people a small-minded feeling. Compared with the CCTV versions of "Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin" and "Dream of Red Mansions", one is in the sky and the other is in the earth.

Later, Song Yi noticed that Korean historical-themed film and television dramas lacked a good shooting environment. For example, Hengdian Film and Television City has hundreds of Grade A (movie grade) and Grade B (TV drama) studios, including ancient costumes, eras, and modern and contemporary film and television shooting scenes. The number exceeds 2000, and one Hengdian can instantly kill all the film and television bases in South Korea.

The main scenes of "Dae Jang Geum" are all in the royal palace, so the first phase of the Kaijing Ancient City Film and Television City project first restored the style of the royal palace in the capital of North Korea.

The second phase of the project will restore the customs and customs of the entire royal capital in the ancient city of Kaijing. The third phase of the project will build Asia's largest water studio, covering an area of ​​more than 8 square meters.

The second phase of the project is for the filming of the historical film "The King's Man", and the third phase of the project is for the filming of "The Battle of Myeongryang".

In fact, "Dae Jang Geum" and "The King's Man" have similar historical backgrounds. "The King's Man" uses the ups and downs of two artists in the palace to show the court under the rule of the tyrannical and moody King Yeonsangun in the history of Joseon. Life.

In "Dae Jang Geum", the Jiazi Disaster occurred in 1504. Yeonsangun ordered the arrest of everyone who participated in the murder of his mother, and little Jang Geum was forced to separate from his parents.

A good film director can make a good TV series, but a good TV series director may not make a good movie.For example, the TV series "Snail House" produced by Teng Huatao is a classic. Although his views are somewhat incorrect, the villain Song Siming is still very charming.And "Puhai Fortress" later directed by Teng Huatao can only be said to be a thunderous success.

"The King's Man" starring Lee Jun-ki ended up with more than 1230 million viewers, breaking the viewing record in Korean film history.The film even won seven awards, including the top prize at the 42nd Baeksang Arts Awards and the best film at the 43rd Daejong Awards.

It is precisely because director Lee Byung-hun may not be good at "The King's Man" that Song Yi chose director Lim Kwon-taek to direct "Dae Jang Geum".

New Asia Pictures plans to produce four movies in [-], namely "Thieves", "Savage Sister", "Kung Fu Panda" and "The King's Man".

It is worth mentioning that Jun Ji-hyun will star in three movies: "Thieves", "Savage Sister" and "Kung Fu Panda". After a year of silence, Jun Ji-hyun will usher in the explosion of her personal career.

"Savage Sister" continues to be directed by Kwak Jae-yong, starring Jun Ji-hyun and Cha Tae-hyun. sidusHQ wanted to use Jun Ji-hyun's reputation to promote their company's artist Jang Hyuk, but Song Yi refused.

The reason why Jun Ji Hyun and Jang Hyuk collaborated in the original version is because both Jun Ji Hyun and Jang Hyuk are signed artists at sidusHQ.Now that Jun Ji-hyun is a manager of New Asia, how can she possibly promote an artist from another company, even if Jang Hyuk has a good relationship with Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Jong-kook?

New Asia Media Real Estate is now a listed company, and the box office of every movie produced by New Asia Pictures will be related to the company's stock price.

Although the script of "Savage Sister" is not as interesting as "My Naughty Girlfriend", the three names of Kwak Jae-yong + Jun Ji-hyun + Cha Tae-hyun can bring the movie a box office result of at least 200 million viewers, and a small profit will definitely not be a problem .

Song Yi is definitely more concerned about the box office of "League of Thieves" than "Savage Sister".Choi Dong-hoon, the director of the original "Thieves" is still working as an assistant director. He wrote and directed the crime movie "Seoul Heist" in 04.This was also his directorial debut, and he won the Grand Bell Award for Best New Director that year.

In 06, Cui Dongxun filmed the crime movie "The Old Man", which was the result of his previous accumulation.Cui Dongxun wrote, directed and filmed "Thieves" in 12.

Currently, Cui Dongxun has no independent directing experience. Song Yi naturally cannot let Cui Dongxun film "Thieves", so he set his sights on another young Korean director Ryu Seung-wan.

Although Ryu Seung-wan is younger than Cui Dongxun, his resume is much stronger than Cui Dongxun.He can do all the work of director, screenwriter, and producer by himself.

His career as a director started at a very high level. At the age of 24, he served as the assistant director of the comedy film "The Threesome". In 98, the 25-year-old Ryu Seung-wan directed his first short film "Fighting the Injustice". In 2000, he wrote and directed the drama film "No Good Death". In [-], he directed the action comedy film "No Blood, No Tears" which was released in South Korea.

In 10, Ryu Seung-wan directed the action crime film "Improper Deal", which co-starred Huang Zhengmin and Ryu Seung-bum.The film won the Best Film at the 32nd Blue Dragon Awards, and Ryu Seung-wan won the Best Director Award.

In 15, Ryu Seung-wan once again won the Best Director Award at the 36th Blue Dragon Awards and the Best Film Award at the 52nd Baeksang Arts Awards for his action movie "Veteran".

Ryu Seung-wan loved Hong Kong action movies since he was a child. He started shooting short films when he was in middle school, and met Park Chan-wook when he graduated from high school.Park Chan-wook and Bong Joon-ho have a good relationship, so Ryu Seung-wan and Bong Joon-ho also know each other.

When Bong Joon-ho learned that New Asia Pictures was preparing to shoot the action crime film "Thieves", although Bong Joon-ho was very interested in the script of "Thieves", he still recommended Ryu Seung-wan to Song Yi. I think Liu Chengwan is more suitable than him.

When Liu Chengwan learned that "Thieves" would be shot on Hong Kong Island and would work with Hong Kong film actors, he immediately agreed.The Korean actors who have been confirmed so far include Song Kang-ho, Lee Jung-jae, Kim Hye-soo, Jun Ji-hyun, and Lee Jun-ki.

Song Kang-ho takes the place of Kim Yoon-seok in the original version, the leader of the gang of thieves.Lee Jun Ki replaced the original Kim Soo Hyun, who had not yet debuted.Jun Ji-hyun and Kim Soo-hyun had a kissing scene in the original version of "Thieves".

There are many reasons why Bong Joon-ho gave up filming "Thieves". First, Bong Joon-ho planned to take a break and then polish the script. His next movie planned to be a science fiction film.And Song Yi knew that this movie was "The Monster of the Han River" that Bong Joon-ho had been thinking about.

Second, for the movie "Thieves", Song Yi will serve as the producer and screenwriter, and Bong Joon-ho is unwilling to conflict with Song Yi on the crew.After all, he was counting on Song Yi to support him in filming the big-budget "Monster of the Han River".

Third, Bong Joon-ho knows Ryu Seung-wan's directorial skills. He feels that Ryu Seung-wan needs this directing opportunity more than he does, and he is willing to support his friend.Korean film directors are relatively united.

During his tenure as president, Zheng Jinhui formulated a blacklist in the literary and art circles to suppress dissidents. He issued a request to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to block as many as 9473 artists on the blacklist, and demanded that the department not approve funding or filming applications from the blocked people.Among them are Bong Joon-ho, Park Chan-wook, Ryu Seung-wan, etc. Zheng Jinhui feels that these directors are too "left".

Due to Zheng Jinhui's power, Chen Meijing, who supported these directors, had to flee to the United States to avoid his influence.In the end, Zheng Jinhui was impeached and stepped down due to the crony scandal.Chen Meijing and Bong Joon-ho realized the return of the king through the movie "Parasite".
"If Love Is God's Will" has also been scheduled and will be released on December 2002, 12.The crew’s promotional slogan is “Let’s watch this year’s best romance movie with your loved ones on Christmas Eve!”

The inschool website also began to promote this romance film. Song Yi praised this film as the best romance film in Korea and even Asia. Cho Seung-woo, Jo In-sung and Son Ye-jin all contributed phenomenal performances.

In addition to the domestic market of South Korea, "If Love Has God's Will" will also be launched in the mainland, Hong Kong Island, Taiwan Province and Japan in the first half of [-].

The movie "If Love Has God's Will" has been officially previewed on Xiaonei.com. The crew invited mainland male singer Li Jian to compose the Chinese theme song "If Love Has God's Will" for the movie.

Li Jian just left the Shuimunianhua group this year and started a solo career.He confirmed the news in an interview with reporters. He has been watching this love movie repeatedly in the past few days to find creative inspiration.

The commercial street in Wangjing Center is officially named Liubaiben Commercial Street. This commercial street will be officially put into operation during the Spring Festival next year.

The investment promotion work of Liubaiben Commercial Street is almost done, and more than 50% of the shops in the commercial street have been rented out.Liubaiben Commercial Street will also open Mainland’s first HugeDream cinema.

HugeDream Cinema Wangjing Branch is a large cinema with a total of 10 theaters and a total of 1600 seats. "If Love Is God's Will" will go to the Mainland next year to do promotional work, and the first stop will be this theater.Kwak Jae-yong, Son Ye-jin, Cho Seung-woo and Jo In-sung were all present, and no one was left behind.

Son Ye-jin has begun to seize the time to learn Chinese. For this reason, she specially hired a Chinese teacher from Seoul University of the Arts.

Song Yi hopes that Son Ye-jin can have some friendly verbal interactions with the Chinese audience during the road show.If possible, he hopes that Son Ye-jin will try to learn the song "If Love Has God's Will" composed by Li Jian.

Mainland audiences are easily satisfied. They can feel that those Korean artists only want to come to the Mainland to make money, and those artists are sincere in treating their fans who love them.

Lee Ji-eun (IU) prepared "Zebra Zebra", "Three Inches of Heaven" and "Young" when she came to the mainland, and sang "Girl with Wings", "Wedding Invitation Street" and "Like You" in Hong Kong Island, China. There are also Cantonese songs.She proved her sincerity with practical actions.

It's a pity that IU is only nine years old now, otherwise Song Yi would have wanted to sign her in advance. IU wanted to be a singer for a long time.Since middle school, I have participated in 20 auditions, including the trainee audition held by JYP Entertainment, but I was rejected every time.

In October 07, IU passed the audition of LOEN Entertainment and finally started her 10-month trainee career.Finally, he debuted as a singer in 10.

Although New Asia Media Real Estate has been listed, Song Yi has not given up the idea of ​​acquiring SM Entertainment.If Song Yi can replace Lee Soo Man as the largest shareholder of SM Entertainment next year, then when IU musters up the courage to participate in SM Entertainment's selection, SM Entertainment can sign IU as soon as possible.
IU is the number one female soloist in South Korea, and her ability to attract money far exceeds that of Girls' Generation lead singer Kim Taeyeon.

In 2000, mainland audiences got to know Song Hye Kyo through "Blue Life and Death", and in 2001, mainland audiences got to know Jun Ji-hyun through "My Naughty Girlfriend". In 2003, mainland audiences would fall in love with Son Ye-jin through the movie "If Love Has a Will".

Song Yi believes that as long as Song Hye Kyo, Jun Ji Hyun and Son Ye Jin become famous in the mainland, there will be nothing wrong with Jang Nara and Park Si Yeon.

In the original time and space, Zhang Nara was appointed as the propaganda ambassador of China.In the same year, the focus of work began to shift to China. Later, she starred in many Chinese film and television dramas including "The Unruly Princess" and released four all-Chinese albums.

Not only that, Zhang Nara served as the cultural exchange ambassador between China and South Korea in 07, and served as the torchbearer for the Seoul Station of the Yanjing Olympic Games.

Jang Nara is a typical two-faced person among Korean artists, making money in China while criticizing China.Originally, her development momentum in domestic entertainment was very good, but she told the truth in a Korean variety show, "I have no money, so I will go to China to perform." She felt that domestic entertainment was easy to make money, and she treated the audience as fools, and was eventually banned.

Finally, Jang Nara also encountered a trough in her Korean acting career and wanted to return to domestic entertainment again.As a result, the audience didn't buy it and told her to get out.

Because of Song Yi's identity, Xinya's artists never dare to make mistakes in the relationship between China and South Korea.In fact, Jang Nara's role in "The Unruly Princess" can also be played by Jun Ji-hyun. Jun Ji-hyun is more suitable than Jang Nara to become the China-Korea exchange ambassador and the Seoul torch bearer for the Yenching Olympics.

Because "Thieves" will be shot on Hong Kong Island, Song Yi plans to ask Ning Hao to serve as the deputy director of "Thieves", allowing him to connect the mainland and Hong Kong artists in "Thieves".

Although the film "Incense" shot by Song Yi and sponsored by Ning Hao cannot be released in mainland theaters, the film won the gold medal in the "Asia Digital Competition" of the Asian DV competition unit of the Tokyo Filmex International Film Festival and the Hong Kong Island International Film Festival.

Although "Incense" cannot be released in the mainland, Song Yi has sold the copyright of "Incense" to France's largest art theater chain MK2, which can be regarded as recouping the cost. "Incense" was also released in South Korea's HugeDream theaters for two weeks. Although most viewers said they could not understand it, knowledgeable film critics thought it was a good movie.

The mainland artists of "Thieves" have taken a fancy to Chen Kun. Starting next year, Hong Kong filmmakers will enter the mainland market in a big way, and Song Yi is also taking precautions.

Hong Kong Island filmmakers like to work together. From producers, directors, screenwriters, actors, to photography, art, and lighting, they all like to use Hong Kong Island people.They use money from mainland investors to support actors from Hong Kong Island.

For example, when Chen Jiashang was filming "Painted Skin" in 08, he chose Chen Kun and Zhou Xun as the male and female leads and Zhen Zidan as a supporting role, which aroused dissatisfaction among people in Hong Kong.They think the Chen family has bad rules, so how can they allow Hong Kong actors to play supporting roles for mainland actors?For example, director Wu Yusen, who has been working with Galloping Horse, thinks so. No wonder his film "The Wheel" failed at the box office.

In the post-[-] film market, Shen Teng, Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and Wu Jing, who are currently able to compete at the box office, have not yet emerged. As a popular young actor in the mainland, Chen Kun is just the right choice to star in "Thieves".

Ning Hao serves as the deputy director of "Thieves" and Chen Kun stars in "Thieves", which means that mainland filmmakers and Korean filmmakers have good exchanges.

He hopes that the big bosses of China Film and Television will understand that there is no need to be superstitious about Hong Kong filmmakers. Mainland actors also have box office appeal internationally.In addition to Hong Kong filmmakers, New Asia Pictures is also a very good partner.
