    "What are you looking at?"

    An Junhyuk turned around, and Park Youngjun came over with two cups of coffee, "Let's drink something to refresh yourself. Oh, I never knew that watching movies can be tiring." He sighed and watched the rough cut for nearly ten hours.  His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was covered with fatigue.

    ¡­My current appearance is probably similar to him¡­

    ??Thinking around in a divergent manner, he took the cup and took a sip. The rich bitterness and light milky aroma immediately filled his mouth.

    "Looking at the scenery?"

    "Yeah, relax your eyes." They replied casually, and the two stopped talking. The brains that had been tortured for a day no longer had the time to think about anything (remembering that I used to play in a band and sing for pop songs, I am Bei  Si, every time I play the bass part, I feel like I¡¯m going to die).

    After drinking a cup of coffee until nightfall, Seoul was filled with lights under the night sky. I don¡¯t know whether it was the caffeine taking effect or the fact that climbing up and looking far helped relieve fatigue. The two of them cheered up a little and didn¡¯t bother to go back to the office, so they found a place in the lobby on the fourth floor.  We sat down in the lounge area and started talking about business.

    Usually no one comes here at all, but I am not afraid of being disturbed.

    "How do you feel about the movie?"

    "What about you?" An Junhyuk asked, and Park Youngjun smiled bitterly: "I didn't distinguish between good and bad. When I watched the first part, it was quite fresh. I had never seen a sample before! After that, it basically became muddled. I was an amateur.  I don¡¯t understand people who are too professional. Anyway, those unadjusted tones, only the sound effects of live radio, made my head spin.¡±

    "Hahahaha! This is just the beginning. From now on, you will be in charge of the entertainment company. There are so many samples that you can't finish them all!"

    "Can I regret taking over the entertainment company now?"

    "No." An Junhe shook his head.

    Park Youngjun rolled his eyes: "What are you talking about? Go to hell!"

    After making a few jokes, An Junhe pondered for a moment, suppressed his smile, and shook his head under Park Youngjun's questioning eyes: "You have read the script before. They are all very ordinary materials. They are an assembly line extended based on some folk horror jokes.  Product, the directors we hired are all veterans of the assembly line, so it¡¯s impossible to make the film outstanding"

    This is an answer that should have been expected, but I heard Ahn Junhyuk say it.  Park Young-joon still couldn't hide his disappointment: "Even if the story isn't good, aren't there any actors?"

    "Why, you still want to discover another Ha Ji-won among the actors introduced by the Performing Artists Association?"

    Park Youngjoon shrugged: "It's hard to say! Reality is sometimes more bizarre and exciting than fiction."

    "Stop dreaming." An Junhe smiled and was too lazy to pay attention to him.  He only continued: "The film basically meets expectations."

    Hear this conclusion.  Park Young-joon just sighed.  It's not that he has high requirements, but when he was originally planning, his requirements for several horror films were too low - he didn't expect to make it to the big screen.  When the company determined the investment amount, it targeted DVD rental and sales.

    What Ahn Jun Hyuk said was basically in line with expectations, but the other implication isit's just a bunch of bad movies!

    In fact, the fundamental purpose of the plan has never been that these investments can recover the cost. This time it is just a test of the water. The main intention is to open up the home video market and expand channels, which is equivalent to paying tuition to learn market rules.

    All kinds of research before the project is launched are all for this goal, and the quality of the film itself is secondary.

    Every formal film and television company will probably go through a similar routine in the start-up stage. The kind of film and television company that is established in the first year and then launches a heavyweight film with a large investment in the next year in an attempt to become famous. Either the management has too much money and is willful, or it is just good luck.  Apart from this, there is no third possibility, because they are all bankrupt!

    Last year, I invested in the filming of "The King's Man". If it weren't for Ahn Joon Hyuk's insistence, that unhealthy investment would have been cut off by the management long ago.

    ¡°You haven¡¯t established a firm foothold in the circle yet, it¡¯s like trying to learn to run before you learn how to walk. With such big steps, don¡¯t hurt your groin too much!

    The only good thing is that the film is not too bad after all. If it works well, there is still hope of recovering the cost.  Although Korean movies are losing ground in the face of Hollywood's offensive on the big screen, thanks to the unique and introverted aesthetics of the East Asian cultural circle, South Korea's psychological thriller horror film model inherited from Japan has gained new vitality. Last year and this year  At the beginning of the year, several masterpieces were released that received both good reputation and box office success, providing sufficient vitality to the market.

    However, even if he understood this, Park Youngjun was still a little depressed.

    Having been with An Junhyuk for a long time, he seems to have lost a lot of patience when facing the most basic lows, "Speaking of it, since last year, you haven't liked any of the books the company has received? Just like "The King's"  Man" like that?""You guys have always said that my production of "The King's Man" is too risky and not advisable. Why have you changed your tune now?"

    Pu Yingjun spread his hands helplessly: "No matter how big the gamble is, it is better than half-dead like this! Seriously, are there any scripts you like? Don't worry, I will support you this time. Whatever you say you want to invest in, I promise I won't say anything. Management  I will also help you convince me!" He waved his hand grandly.

    "You!" An Junhe laughed and nodded at him, "You must have lost your mind after watching the movie. Go home and go to bed. I have other things to do and I am too lazy to waste time with you."

    After saying that, he got up and left.

    Park Youngjun also stood up quickly: "Hey, I'm kiddingHey, are you really leaving? It's already this time, the employees are all off work, what else do you have to do?"

    In response to him, An Junhe just waved his hand without looking back.

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    An Junhyuk didn¡¯t deal with him, he really had something to do.  Several companies currently named "j.h" were originally separated from j.h studio. Among them, the music department was the first to be independent, naturally it is now j.h music, and the rest were integrated into j.h entertainment, so it is now the main business  Including acting agencies, film and television production (the game department has been separated and integrated into j.h network), and the distribution department is still under construction.

    The film and television production department, after the company was formalized, continued to be subdivided into the film production department and the TV series production department. This is the internal name, and the official names are Film and Television 1 (movies) and Film and Television 2 (tv series).

    The first one is going to test the waters this year, and the second one can¡¯t be idle either.

    j.h is still relatively unknown, and its production and distribution capabilities have not yet been demonstrated. The scope of accepting script submissions is not large, and the choices are narrow. Even if the second department sends people to the Filmmakers Association to treat them to food, drinks and entertainment all day long, hoping to find a good script,  However, due to the conservative rules of the Korean radio and television industry, it is difficult to achieve results.

    In South Korea, the system of separation of production and broadcasting is not as widespread as in Japan or the United States. Several major TV stations, even SBS, which has no state-owned capital and has the strongest commercial atmosphere, tend to do their own research and planning, and use their own production companies to launch projects.  project.  The reason for such a choice is that on the one hand, the land area is small and the coverage of television broadcasting is limited. A disguised monopoly has already been formed, and the conservative model of self-production and self-sales has become a habit.

    On the other hand, independent production companies outside have too little capital compared to TV stations to produce large projects. The cost of small investments is shoddy films, and the occasional excellent works are short-lived, far from being able to compete with TV stations.

    If things go on like this, outstanding talents are concentrated in television stations, and independent production companies are almost ignored.

    As for those who are willing to favor j.h Entertainment, j.h Entertainment may not be interested in them - they are mostly selected by the TV station, or they have ulterior motives.

    However, compared to the laissez-faire of the first part, Ahn Junhyuk is quite concerned about the development of the second part this year. But what makes the second part puzzled is that this legendary chairman assigned the project to the second part before going to Japan.  , but it is not a TV series, but a variety show.

    It¡¯s night, and the lights in the office are brightly lit, just like daytime.

    In the relatively spacious space, the director of the second department was grabbing the sparse hair on the top of his head while flipping through the information in his hand.  Next to him, there was another young man with a dull expression, who was also looking through a stack of documents that was almost as thick as his.

    Directly across from the desk, two middle-aged men, one fat and one thin, were sitting. Although they tried hard to hide it, their behavior always showed uneasiness.

    The name of the director of the second department is Huang Zhixiang, a middle-aged uncle who is starting to go bald. Since the actor does not have human rights, we will not introduce it here. We only need to know that he used to be the owner of an independent production company. Later, the company failed due to poor management.  Proficient in the film and television business, he was recruited by a headhunter hired by j.h and appointed as a minister.

    To a certain extent, he is willing to come to J.H. Of course, it is because he is bankrupt and cannot survive without working, but he also has the idea of ????making a comeback.

    Originally, he felt that j.h Entertainment had just been established, which was a good time for him to show off his talents and tide over the difficulties.  It's a pity that when I came here, I discovered that everything about J.H Company was good. It had a star founder who had high exposure and seemed to have abundant funds. However, it happened to be that star founder who was too controlling.

    During the time when he came to J.H, he was interested in several scripts and prepared research applications. He sent them to Japan and was rejected.

    Ahn Junhyuk even called him personally and gave him clear instructions that the main task of the second part this year is only that variety show. Other projects can apply, but during the preparation of the show, they must make way for it!

    Huang Zhixiang was puzzled.

    Variety showhehewhat is that?

    Thinking about it, he hasSome of them were bored and deliberately threw down the materials in their hands, flipped the table and said, "I'll bite you if I don't read it." However, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the young man next to him, and the desire had to be suppressed again.

    The young man is not his assistant, but the deputy director of the Second Department, named Jin Xun. It is said that he used to be Ahn Junhyuk's assistant.

    ¡°It¡¯s true that one person has attained enlightenment, and even chickens and dogs have ascended to heaven!

    Huang Zhixiang would never admit that he was jealous. He always felt that Jin Xun's existence was Ahn Junhyuk's nail in the second department.  But what made him helpless was that An Junhyuk was honest and aboveboard in his work. He even assigned Jin Xun the jurisdiction to be fully responsible for the specific preparations for the No. 1 project of the second department, but he didn't directly say: I don't trust you.  So send someone to keep an eye on him, neither dividing your power nor hindering your work. Normally you just ignore him.

    He was left speechless.  (To be continued)
