When I was in Reply 1988

Chapter 636 Sublimation

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

In this era, the social status of movie artists is somewhat low.

Sometimes, they are not even as good as those who make TV dramas.

They choose to make movies either to make money or to gain glory.

As a member of the subculture circle, Peninsula itself is relatively introverted.

Who can shout out loudly that someone makes movies just to become famous and make money?
Wouldn't that be embarrassing for myself and the agency?
Moreover, the people of the Peninsula are not like those hot-blooded middle school students next door who always shout "gamble on glory" or something like that.

There's no way to respond to this.

Everyone looked at each other and finally chose to shut up.

Li Renyong didn't expect to get an answer. He grinned and said, "I don't know about you, but my goal is the Palme d'Or!!!"

This was an award he had thought about for a long time before deciding to receive.

As for the Oscars, don't even consider it.

It’s not that I won’t consider it, but there is simply no chance.

Not to mention before 90, even before 2000, no Peninsula film had ever won an Oscar.

A movie that wins an award not only needs to be of good quality, but also involves many other factors.

The peninsula is currently in the process of cultural invasion. With the Eagle Sauce's output, do you still want to win an award?
You're a non-English film, and you want to win an award?

Want to eat fart.

When it comes to the Palme d'Or, many people may not know it.

But when it comes to the Cannes Film Festival, many people know it.

The Palme d'Or is the most important award and also the biggest one.

The only reason why Li Renyong chose it, in addition to enhancing the value and promotion effect of the entire Peninsula Film on an international scale, is because of something very important.

That is considered the equivalent of receiving the Legion of Honor.

As long as you receive this award, you can basically be exempted from military service.

How hard is it to get this award?

Peninsula won this award for the first time in 19, with the winning film "Parasite".

The last time China released a film was in 93's "Farewell My Concubine".

In the past twenty years or so, Xiao Japan has only produced two films.

"Eel" from 97.

"Shoplifters" in 18.

Apart from this, no other film has ever won the Palme d'Or.

Li Renyong never considered anything like the Jury Award.

Can "Joint Security Area" win an award?

As long as it's the right time and the right place, everything will be fine.

The atmosphere was very lively and everyone was stunned by Li Renyong's bold words.

A lively discussion ensued.

For Peninsula Films, this idea is basically the same as wanting to run before you learn to walk.

But it sounds really touching.

Li Renyong looked at everything below with a smile.

If you want to work seriously, you must first arouse everyone's enthusiasm for work.

Zheng Nanzhu's eyes were fixed on Li Renyong, revealing a sense of joy.

Ayong is really amazing.

Everyone is thinking about how to make a good movie, and you want to win the Palme d'Or directly.

so amazing.

In the entire conference room, only Lee Chang-dong and Ma Il-sung were not immersed in excitement.

The two have been working for many years and can be considered old hands.

It is impossible to be provoked immediately by just one word from others.

Ma Richeng looked up and murmured, "Palme d'Or? Is this possible?" As soon as he raised his head, he met Li Renyong's eyes.

"Everything depends on human effort. I believe that with our professionalism, as long as we do it and do it well, we will definitely have a chance. If we can win the Palme d'Or, it will not only establish our position in China, but also be a good opportunity to bring the Peninsula film industry to the international stage."

"I have finished what I have to say."

Li Renyong shut up and let everyone digest the situation while waiting for Li Changdong and others to make a decision.

Originally, I just wanted to make a movie and avoid military service.

Good man, now let’s do this.

Li Changdong clenched his fists tightly and looked up at Li Renyong.

Looking at Li Renyong's calm expression, I suddenly thought of the moment when the two of us first met.

Suddenly I realized that this person has great ambitions.

Why did you sell your house to make your first movie?
Now that you have a little honor, should you maintain the status quo?

Do not!
go ahead!

Take a big step forward!

"boom!"

Li Changdong slammed his fist on the table hard, making a loud noise.

"Okay! Then let's fight for the Palme d'Or together."

A smile appeared on Li Renyong's lips.

With the support of colleagues, work can be continued better.

"Everyone has read the script carefully, so I won't go into details. I believe in your professionalism. Let's summarize what this drama is about."

"What is the Joint Security Area? In the 53 armistice agreement between the North and the South, both sides withdrew two kilometers along the military demarcation line. This four-kilometer military zone is called the Joint Security Area."

"This is a genre film, and the first half is full of doubts and counter-evidence. The highlight of the whole movie lies in the small details in the performance, such as the mine-clearing plot and the sentry post plot. In this regard, you, the leading actors, must grasp the right degree."

"At the same time, I want to tell you that this movie needs a gap. Indifference versus warmth, crying versus smiling faces. How happy the audience is in the first half hour, how heartbroken and cruel the ending will be. Let them cry, cry loudly."

"Finally, because of the national conditions of our peninsula, this film analyzes and explains from a human perspective. We do not have any stance and remain neutral. When promoting it in the future, we must say this to reporters."

The actors all responded in unison, but Song Kang-ho seemed to be thinking about something.

In fact, Li Renyong only gave a rough outline of the plot and did not say how to perform it in detail.

After talking about the actors, he also discussed some other issues to ensure that there would be no mistakes during the filming.

It takes dozens of days to shoot a movie.

Li Renyong spoke and everyone listened, and then they discussed in groups to deepen their understanding of each other.

The working group determines the method of communication within the group.

Finally, Li Renyong stood up and bowed to everyone.

"For the sake of the movie, for yourselves, and for honor, please!"

Afterwards, everyone returned to their respective jobs.

……

The corridor of Korea University Hospital.

Zhengfeng was wearing a suit at this time, looking bright and handsome, not as carefree as he was at home.

To describe it with an idiom, it is like a peacock spreading its tail.

He held an envelope in his hand, his eyes were tender, as if he was expecting something.

The name on the envelope is Zhang Meiyu!

Zhengfeng sat on a chair in the corridor, looking towards a ward from time to time.

That is Zhang Meiyu's ward.

At this moment, he was feeling very conflicted.

I want to go in, but I don’t dare to go in.

After thinking for a long time, he finally stood up and smoothed his hair.

Then, I exhaled a breath and smelled nothing strange, and finally I encouraged myself.
