Chapter 209 Perfectionism
The first week of the Lunar New Year film war has come to an end.
The box office champion in the first week was "The King" with nearly 1.5 million moviegoers.
Zhao Yincheng's long legs have been blasted on the Internet.
The second is "Brave Citizen", which relied on the "Ghost Tour" + "1988 Tour" to survive and did not fall too far at the box office. It reached nearly 1.2 million moviegoers in its first week.
Jin Qixuan and Han Hyo-joo's "disinfectant CP" are equally popular among netizens.
"The Help", which has been suppressed by two movies, did not fall far behind. The box office also began to rise significantly over the two weekends, with a total of nearly 1.1 million moviegoers in the first week.
The response to Dajun's screen debut was very good, and netizens praised him for being so beautiful.
However, the box office results in the first week do not represent everything. The Spring Festival holiday period in the next two weeks is the real battlefield.
Affected by the split account model, the box office of a movie must reach at least three times the amount of investment before the capital can recover the cost.
But according to the current trend, it is a certainty that "Brave Citizen" will reach 2 million moviegoers and recover the cost. Now it remains to be seen how much profit it can achieve.
In addition to the local box office, there is of course overseas copyright sales.
However, due to policy reasons, China, as the largest trading country on the peninsula (the parents of food and clothing), obviously did not buy it and righteously refused to introduce new movies to the peninsula.
So the movie "Brave Citizen" can only be released on the treasure island of China.
But despite this, Jin Qixuan still volunteered to participate in the dubbing production of the Chinese version of the movie.
As we all know, modern standard Korean has no tones.
Therefore, the intonation of Peninsular people when speaking is mainly determined by the ups and downs of pitch and emotion.
Tone and pitch are two concepts.
Tone, or pitch, is a physical quantity.
That is, the vibration frequency of the sound-producing object. The higher the vibration frequency, the higher the pitch, and the smaller the frequency, the lower the pitch.
Tone is not artificially prescribed, but is naturally formed due to different pronunciation methods.
Tone refers to the change in relative pitch of human pronunciation, which is artificially determined.
For example, our Mandarin has four tones, English has two tones, and Korean has no tones.
This also led to the fact that when Jin Qixuan was dubbing himself, he spoke fluent, emotional and ups and downs in Mandarin, which made the staff dumbfounded.
This is not a matter of Jin Qixuan having two brushes, he must have at least four brushes.
Therefore, many staff members took out their mobile phones to record the moment when Jin Qixuan appeared in front of him.
At the critical moment, Sheng Bingxu blocked their idea of publishing this video online in time.
You can record it, but don’t post it.
Because this is the general election, Jin Qixuan’s fluent Mandarin may be misinterpreted by netizens as supporting the leader of a certain party.
Because in the canvassing speeches a few days ago, Leader Wen vowed to oppose the SD plan.
Opposition to SD will probably mean that if he takes office, the core of diplomacy will belong to the pro-Z faction.
Therefore, his public support rate is quite high.
At this time, Jin Qixuan’s Chinese-dubbed behind-the-scenes video is likely to be misinterpreted by interested people.
But actually, there’s nothing wrong with showing support.
But the words of key politicians cannot be trusted. This will definitely change when they become candidates.
Fortunately, Sheng Bingxu stopped it in time and saved himself and Jin Qixuan from a disaster.
Jin Qixuan, who was concentrating on dubbing, had no idea what was going on, because he was so good at outputting Chinese quintessence.
As the dubbing content of the Chinese version is completed, Jin Qixuan's promotion work for "Brave Citizen" is about to come to an end.
After all, it has been promoted for a month and a half, and everything that needs to be seen has been seen. There is no point in wasting manpower and material resources.
If you have that kind of money, why not find some professional film review bloggers to give it good reviews?
As for the future direction of the box office, it depends on the vague luck and the audience's choice.
The next day, Jin Qixuan came to JTBC TV station to participate in the script reading meeting of "Strong Woman Do Bong Soon".
Normally, a crew would take at least three months from preparation to casting.
But the efficiency of JTBC TV station is terrible.
In just two days, all supporting roles were signed.
I finished reading the script in the morning, went to shoot posters in the afternoon, and even started shooting after the third grade of junior high school...
Jin Qixuan was a little panicked.
The script reading will start at 9 am.
There was nothing else to do in the morning, so Jin Qixuan arrived half an hour early.
Park Bo Gum was also persuaded by Kim Ki Hyun to star.
However, he did not have many roles, and he had a business event to attend today, so he did not participate in the script reading meeting.
Originally, Jin Qixuan thought that he should be the first actor to arrive, but when he entered the room, he found that Go Kyung Pyo was already sitting in his seat.
This scene reminded Jin Qixuan of the moment when he arrived half an hour early to participate in the 1988 script reading.
Seeing Jin Qixuan arrive, Gao Geng Piao immediately stood up and bowed towards Jin Qixuan.
"Thank you very much for your help."
Go Kyung-pyo said this to show that he knew it was because of Jin Qixuan himself that he was selected.
At the beginning of 2017, Go Kyung-pyo was at the peak of his life, both in appearance and figure.
"No, if it weren't for your image and acting skills, it would be useless no matter how much I say. So don't thank me, just thank yourself."
Jin Qixuan waved his hand and avoided his bow.
No matter in terms of seniority or age, Gao Geng Piao, Jin Qixuan, couldn't bear it. If someone saw him, he would think he was being bullied.
"I know my level myself. I am really grateful to you. Don't hide."
He had no choice but to return the gift.
"Are you free tonight? I would like to treat you to a meal, and Huiying is back too."
"Oh? Sister Huiying is back?"
Speaking of Liu Huiying, Jin Qixuan has not been seen since the completion of 1988.
Jin Qixuan will remember this bad woman who took away his first kiss for the rest of his life.
"Yes, I'll come back for the New Year."
"Well... I really want to see her. But I don't have time tonight, not just tonight, but I haven't had time recently."
Tomorrow It's New Year's Eve, and tonight Jin Qixuan is going to the Disabled Persons' Federation Community to rehearse a stage play with Li Zhien.
When he thought about having to perform with people with intellectual disabilities, Jin Qixuan instantly felt extremely stressed.
Jin Qixuan is still a bit perfectionistic.
For example, living in the most expensive house, wearing the most expensive clothes, and finding the cutest girlfriend.
And the performance must be perfect, even though it is just a stage play of Grimm's fairy tales.
"Ah...it doesn't matter. I understand that you are busy, so let's talk about it when you have time."
"Um, may I take the liberty of asking how much your salary is?"
Because the signings were all private, Jin Qixuan didn't know how many other actors there were.
“15 million/episode is not low, I am already very satisfied.”
15 million is the salary for Kim Qi-hsuan to play Liu Dehua. Go Kyung-pyo’s price is almost lower than that of Kim Qi-hsuan Four times.
"Well... come on, I look forward to your wonderful performance."
Go Kyung-pyo smiled and patted his chest and said:
"Don't worry, I will work hard to play the role well without delaying If you need anything from me in the future, just give me orders."
"Ah...ok."
This brother hugged me like his thigh...
Jin Qixuan cursed in his heart.
Just give him some instructions...
It's not that he looks down on him, but Jin Qixuan feels that if something happens to him, he doesn't seem to be able to help.
Actually, thighs are nothing to talk about. But Go Kyung-pyo really wanted to make friends with Jin Qixuan.
In the past few years since his debut, he has really never met anyone noble.
If Jin Qixuan could guide him a little, he would indeed be able to avoid many detours.
Even though Jin Qixuan debuted not long ago, he was already randomly selected as the male lead in the second year after his debut.
This is enough to prove that the resources and connections behind it are terrifyingly numerous.
Go Kyung-pyo thought that if he could work in a few dramas with Kim Qixuan and gain some popularity, it would be a matter of time before he took off.
...
After a while, the actors entered the scene one after another.
Park Bo Young arrived on time.
Seeing the way she was wearing a hat, Jin Qixuan guessed that she had just gotten up and hadn't had time to wash her hair.
Seeing Jin Qixuan greeting him, Park Boyoung also smiled and waved.
When Park Bo Young sat down, without a word of small talk, the script reading began directly.
"Let's just say hello and let's start reading the script."
After listening to director Lee Hyung-min's words, everyone responded, and Park Bo-young began to introduce herself.
“Hello everyone, I am Park Bo Young, who plays the role of Do Bong Soon, a girl with super powers.”
"Hello everyone, I am Kim Ki-hyun who plays the wealthy psychopath Ahn Min-hyuk."
……
……
A total of four episodes of lines were read during the reading meeting, because the screenwriter only wrote four episodes.
In the script of the first episode, a small easter egg was added to the scene where the male and female protagonists first meet.
The plot is about a construction site blocking the road. The driver of the school bus had a dispute with the construction site gang because he wanted to send his children to school and was bullied.
At this time the heroine appears.
But because the heroine is small and too cute, she has no intimidation, so she was teased by the gangsters.
“Ah, you are so brave as a small citizen? You dare to take care of anything. Do you think you are Han Xiaozhou?”
The heroine was pointed at by the gangsters and beaten several times.
The results are self-evident.
After solving the trouble, the heroine scratched her nose with her thumb and said arrogantly: "Han Xiaozhou? Huh~"
In Korean dramas, popular celebrities often appear as guest stars.
For example, Bae Suzy made a guest appearance in the entire drama in "The Producer".
For example, in "Goblin", the heroine named the messenger of hell, and Park Bo Gum and Kim Woo Bin appeared as guest stars.
And this also confirms the current revival of Han Xiaozhou's popularity.
The reading will last until one o'clock in the afternoon.
“Thank you for your hard work!”
"Bah bang bang..."
The whole process of the reading meeting was still very happy. After all, it is a romantic comedy, and many funny scenes made everyone laugh out loud.
The reading came to an end and all the actors took a group photo together.
Then, the leading actors Kim Ki-hyun, Park Bo-young and Go Kyung-pyo accepted a series of interviews.
After taking a few group photos, the reporter asked: How did it feel to read the script for the first time.
"Well, although it is a bit hard, the atmosphere is still very good. I feel that a very interesting TV series will be born, and I am looking forward to it, so I will prepare carefully!"
Generally, formal script readings only read two episode scripts, and this is the case for 1988 and Ghost. But the crew read four episodes and were really tired.
After finishing speaking, Jin Qixuan handed the radio microphone to Park Bo Young in the C position.
“I am very happy to be able to cooperate with many outstanding seniors. Qixuan and I have known each other for a long time. So we cooperated very well today and we have a tacit understanding.”
< br>
After saying that, Park Bo Young extended her hand to Go Kyung Pyo and introduced:
"Although today is the first time I met Go Kyung Pyo Xi, it doesn't feel like the first time. They cooperate very well, even more I look forward to future cooperation. There are many highlights in this drama, so please look forward to it.”
After that, Park Bo Young handed the microphone to Go Kyung Pyo.
"Well...I'm very excited. I feel very honored to be able to work with such great people. I will try not to cause trouble for the work and work hard. Thank you."
Three people, three paragraphs Words convey three different mental states.
Kim Kee-hyun is calm and composed; Park Bo-young is at ease; Go Kyung-pyo is cautious.
After having lunch in the JTBC TV station cafeteria, the three of them followed the camera crew to the studio to shoot a promotional poster.
After entering the venue, the three of them began to change clothes, put on makeup, and do styling.
Compared to the second male lead, Go Kyung-pyo, who only has two outfits, Kim Qixuan has ten outfits that need to be changed for filming...
This scene reminded Jin Qixuan of Gong Liu's dress-up show when he was filming the poster for "Goblin".
The content of the posters mainly revolves around the theme of the TV series - Dali.
But Park Bo Young definitely does not have this magical power, so the photo shoot of carrying Kim Qixuan was done with a dummy model.
After all, Jin Qixuan's weight of 80 kilograms was enough to make her cry for help.
But even as a dummy model, Park Bo Young found it difficult to carry it.
Because, she doesn’t exercise.
Therefore, when shooting and carrying the model, there will be staff on both sides to help.
Seeing this scene, Jin Qixuan shook his head.
Too weak, not as strong as Li Zhien.
After Park Bo Young finished filming, a burly staff member acted as Park Bo Young's stand-in, and the princess hugged Jin Qixuan for the photo shoot.
To be honest, Jin Qixuan was a little embarrassed to be hugged by a man and a princess.
So in order to end this embarrassing moment as soon as possible, Jin Qixuan worked very hard to cooperate with the photographer's request.
The photoshoot for the first page of the pictorial is over, and the second page is a group photo of the three of them.
But Park Bo-young stood between the two 185-year-old men, like an elementary school student who has not grown up.
Then, in order to harmonize the scene, a wooden box was placed at Park Bo Young’s feet.
Jin Qixuan also stepped on this wooden box, when he took a photo with a group of 190 male models for GQ magazine.
After this group photo was taken, it was a personal photo.
After changing into ten sets of clothes, Jin Qixuan found the feeling he had when he was shooting for a magazine.
Later, when Jin Qixuan was admiring the newly released photos, the photographer came over and asked him how his photos were (compared to fashion magazines) and whether he had any satisfactory photos.
This thing is definitely incomparable.
In terms of level, she is at the level of an internet celebrity videographer, but compared with fashion magazine photographers, the gap is still quite big.
Photographers hired by other fashion magazines sign annual contracts to prevent them from shooting at competing companies.
Just like the Angel couple who shot Jin Qixuan’s magazine debut, their annual salary at Vogue Korea is around 1 billion.
So, of course Jin Qixuan praised her for her great shooting.
"Sister, the photos you took are all great. I like every one of them. I plan to hang these photos at home and enjoy them."
After hearing this, the sister was very happy and took Jin Qixuan to take some more photos. open.
It took a long time to take promotional photos, and it didn’t end until after eight o’clock in the evening.
Originally, the crew wanted to have a dinner together to build relationships.
This dinner is held by each crew after the script reading meeting.
But...Jin Qixuan reluctantly refused.
Because Li Zhien's nanny car was already waiting outside the building.
