After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 570: An unreasonable new world! A market miracle! (Second update)

This year's Korean summer movie season is a battle of the imagination!
6 month 21 day.

"I AM", directed by Choi Jin-sung, opens its summer season. This film is the first documentary film launched by SM Entertainment that records the growth process of its artists.

It includes complete records of the debut and rise to fame of many artists such as Kangta, BoA, TVXQ, SUPER JUNIOR, Girls' Generation, SHINee, f(x), as well as wonderful video clips of SM Town concerts held around the world.

As early as mid-May, the film was released in other parts of Asia, and achieved impressive box office records in Indonesia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, etc.

It also achieved the best box office performance in the weekend slot.

In addition, the film was screened as one of the works representing South Korea at the 15th Shanghai International Film Festival held at the University of Tokyo this year, and received unprecedented attention. The tickets were sold out in a very short time after they were officially sold out. Many viewers were unable to get a ticket and hoped that more screenings would be added.

Then, after being shown in Korea for more than 30 days, the number of viewers did not exceed ...

The Korean film industry is really unfriendly to idols...

However, the Blu-ray disc of this movie sold very well in Korea.

The second Korean film of the summer season is "Invasion of the Ironworms".

Among the Korean movies released this year, the movie with the best opening day box office was "Invasion of the Iron Fence", which attracted 19 viewers.

So far, the film has mobilized over 400 million people!
On July 7, according to the Korean Film Council's data on the Korean film industry's settlement results for the first half of 3, the cumulative number of viewers for Korean domestic films exceeded 2012 million by June 2012, a 6% increase over the same period last year.

This is the highest record for the number of viewers for a domestic film in half a year in the history of Korean films. The previous record was 2006 million in 4149.

在上半年的票房成绩上，排名前十的影片中包含了《与犯罪的战争：坏家伙们的全盛时代》（468万人次）、《我妻子的一切》（435万人次）、《建筑学概论》（410万人次）、《再见，我的灵魂伴侣》（260万人次）等7部韩国本土影片。

The best-selling film in the first half of the year was the Hollywood production "The Avengers" (706 million people).

Three Hollywood blockbusters will be released in Korea this summer.

The Amazing Spider-Man, The Dark Knight Rises, Ice Age 4.

The premiere date of New World is right between the schedules of Spider-Man and Batman. It's a pain in the ass to be caught between the two heroes!

On July 7, New World will premiere in South Korea!
On the day of its premiere, the film attracted 41 viewers in Korea, setting a record for the best opening day box office performance in the history of Korean films.

CJ's hard work in promotion, powerful cinema production, Cannes award-winning films, Asia's most outstanding commercial director, gangster crime action movies...

With the blessing of various halos!

As a banned film, New World broke through the ceiling on its premiere day and broke the premiere record in Korean film history!

Although the banned movies limit the number of viewers, a truly fascinating movie can still be a hit even if it is banned!

Li Mingyang has always believed in this!
There are so many banned movies that rank at the top of the box office in Korean film history, and many of them were box office champions of the year.

People in the industry, more than 900 million people.

Friends, 818 million people.

Uncle, 617 million people watched the movie.

And then there's Crime City! Seoul Spring!

New World breaks the premiere attendance record!
On the other hand, because of the huge success of New World, the box office of "Goodbye, My Soul Mate", which has not yet been released, suddenly revived and rose against the trend!

The number of moviegoers had dropped to around 15, but soared to over on that day!

Unreasonable increase!
The most unreasonable thing is Monday the 16th!
Li Mei Jin was worried that his first trip to Korea to shoot a movie would not produce satisfactory box office results on the first day, so she deliberately postponed the release to Monday. Unexpectedly, New World was so much to the taste of Korean audiences.

On multiple professional movie rating websites, the reputation has reached over 9 points, especially NAVER with a score of 9.35!
Great reviews! Hard to get a ticket!
The related posters and peripherals were sold out on the same day.

Because there were so many people who wanted to watch it, midnight shows were arranged.

"Shit! What are you worried about? You should just move up the schedule! Come on, cheers!"

Shilla Hotel, Luoyan box.

When Li Mingyang raised his glass to toast with the main creators, he did not forget to complain about Li Meijin.

"Director Li, the box office is so great on Monday, it will definitely be even better on the weekend!" said Sun Li.

"The word of mouth is very good, it will definitely work if tens of millions of people come!" Choi Min-sik said in broken Chinese.

"Come on! I wish Director Li's next movie will continue to be a big hit. Director Li, when will you shoot your next movie?" Lee Jung-jae spoke in English.

"Shit! Cheers!" Huang Zhengmin held it in for a long time before saying it.

"Director Li is the box office king. Whatever he shoots is a box office success, no matter where he shoots. With 10 million viewers, he is sure to win the annual championship!" Li Bingbing complimented.

Li Mingyang felt so relieved when listening to other people's compliments. He had been unhappy for so long, and finally something went well for him!

After a glass of wine, everyone sat down and started bragging and gossiping, but the conversation was short.

The door was pushed open, and Lee Byung-hun came in with a glass of wine to congratulate.

His smile was so flattering.

Lee Byung-hun can be said to be one of the movie emperors that many people want to work with.

Because of Kim Go-eun, the two have met privately several times.

After a while, Lee Jung-jae went out and brought his good brother Jung Woo-sung over.

This guy is not the best actor yet, it’s just that his opponent is too strong… He will get the best actor award only when he becomes the witness.

Another male protagonist in Seoul Spring.

The arrival of Lee Byung-hun and Jung Woo-sung seemed to have opened Pandora's box.

They took turns going out to pick up people, and in less than half an hour, the house was full of people sitting and standing.

Lee Byung-hun also brought in Lee Sung-min.

The grandfather of the youngest son of a chaebol family.

The third male lead in Seoul Spring.

Male one, male two, and male three are all alive!

The Korean entertainment industry is small and united, especially among male actors.

There are many familiar faces in this big-budget movie, all with superb acting skills, giving it a feel of Hong Kong’s golden age.

People pull in other people, and the circle gradually grows until it is big enough to negotiate terms with the chaebols.

Hang the domestic entertainment...

If there is no ban on Korean entertainment, domestic entertainment will really become Korean entertainment...

Today's Chungmuro ​​Movie King gathering is not just for congratulations, everyone is eyeing Li Mingyang's next movie.

The news of Miss Going to Cannes spread all over China and South Korea.

The movie stars present felt no pressure at all to act in this banned film about lesbians.

Miss, if you can fight for it, then fight for it. If you can’t, it doesn’t matter.

These movie stars want box office more!

I would rather make a crime-themed action movie.

This is Li Mingyang’s specialty!

The Witch Is Unreasonable has accumulated 480 million viewers in Korea, with a total box office of 361 billion won, ranking 7th in Korea that year!

The release of New World Studios directly broke the premiere record in Korean film history, and the word of mouth is the best this year. Tens of millions of viewers are just around the corner, and the annual championship is certain!
Li Mingyang’s action movies are so popular in Korea!

The day Jang Dong-gun debuted, the box office tanked, and the outcome is still fresh in our memory!
No one present wants to become the next Jang Dong-gun...

Li Mingyang knew it very well, but he only talked about the ladies and never mentioned the action movies.

Keeping everyone on suspense.

Drinking, singing, dancing, bragging, it was past two in the afternoon. Li Mingyang had other things to do in the evening and couldn't drink anymore. He raised his glass and toasted everyone, "I have something else to do in the afternoon, so I'll leave first."

Sun Li and Li Bingbing quickly finished the wine in their glasses and tried to get close to Li Mingyang.

Who knew there were people more active than them.

As soon as the two women finished their drinks, they saw Lee Byung-hun and Lee Jung-jae helping the drunk one out of the door.

Lee Byung-hun helped Lee Mingyang into Lee Jung-jae's car, then took out a gift box from his pocket and stuffed it into Lee Mingyang's hand.

"Director Li, the things in here are very important. You can open it and take a look when you go back." Lee Byung-hun said mysteriously.

"what is that?"

Li Mingyang took out the gift box and was about to open it, but was stopped by Lee Byung-hun. "Director Lee, go back and watch it again, go back and watch it again."

Lee Byung-hun kept emphasizing that he should go back and look at it, so Lee Mingyang thought about it and put it back in his pocket.

As soon as Lee Byung-hun left, Lee Jung-jae asked, "Director Lee, are you going home now?"

"Ah."

"Do you want to go to the next place?"

"No, I've had enough to drink today."

Seeing that Li Mingyang was not going to the next show, Li Zhengzai smiled and started the car.

When they arrived outside the mansion in Seongbuk-dong, Lee Jung-jae got out of the car, mysteriously took out a note from his pocket, and stuffed it into Li Mingyang's hand, "Director Li, open this when you go back and read it. Burn it after you finish reading it."

Li Mingyang put the note in his pocket and made an OK gesture.

When he got home, Li Mingyang opened the note: 041510, followed by a series of numbers and Chinese characters.

47350 won?

"Is this the stock price?" Li Mingyang frowned slightly.

Li Mingyang opened the gift box given by Lee Byung-hun again, and saw a note inside, saying buy 005930.

“This is also a stock…”

Li Mingyang scratched his head. Lee Byung-hun and Lee Jung-jae were giving him insider stock information directly!

No wonder it's so mysterious.

I checked on my mobile phone and found that 041510 is SM Entertainment and 005930 is Samsung Electronics.

SM Entertainment's current share price is 38010 won, and 47350 won should be the final price it will reach. Of course, if you buy SM Entertainment's stock, you may be treated as a loser because you bought too much.

Samsung is relatively stable and will definitely rise sharply in the future.

The scale is large, and more money can be invested.

Li Mingyang burned the two notes into ashes and flushed them away with the sound of a flushing toilet.

Top Chungmuro ​​actors like Lee Jung-jae and Lee Byung-hun have good relationships with many chaebols.

"Stock trading is not as exciting as going public!"

Li Mingyang took off all his clothes and stood under the shower. With his serious state, his muscles hardened, veins bulged, and he seemed to have become thicker.

The blood rushes and the body heats up rapidly.

After a while, beads of sweat the size of beans covered his entire body, and wisps of white smoke floated from his hot body.

"what……"

Li Mingyang felt that his brain was completely clear. He exhaled the foul air and turned on the shower to take a shower.

After taking a shower and changing into a bathrobe, Li Mingyang left the master bedroom and went to look for Tiantian, or Mimi, or if that didn't work, Xiaoyu would also be fine.

Celebrate, celebrate!

It’s best to hit three targets at once.

Li Mingyang searched the second floor but couldn't find the three women. He asked the housekeeper and found out that the three women were in the basement.

When he arrived at the basement, Li Mingyang discovered that the cabinet blocking the secret door of the air-raid shelter had been moved away, so he pushed the door open and saw that the three women were indeed in the cinema suite.

Yang Mi and Jing Tian were wearing suspender pajamas and rummaging through the drawers in the cinema suite, while Zhong Xiaoyu was lying under the bed looking for something.

The room was in a mess, as if a thief had broken into it.

"What are you doing?" Li Mingyang asked.

Yang Mi quietly put down what she was holding and stuck out her tongue, "I didn't do anything."

Jing Tian was more straightforward. He put one hand on his waist and wiped the sweat off his face with the back of his hand. "Where did you hide the script you wrote before?"

"You're rummaging through all the boxes just to find my script." Li Mingyang came to the bed, grabbed Zhong Xiaoyu's calf, and pulled her out from under the bed.

Zhong Xiaoyu rolled her eyes and glanced at Jing Tian. It went without saying that it was Jing Tian who ordered her to do it and it had nothing to do with her.

Jing Tian showed a flattering smile, hugged Li Mingyang's arm, and said coquettishly: "You won't be angry, will you?"

You are asking this question even though you already know the answer!
"What do you think?" Li Mingyang said angrily.

"You've been philandering and sleeping around, and I didn't care about you. Why are you so angry? Humph, I'm so tired."

Jing Tian pouted, pushed Li Mingyang away with force, snorted coldly, and walked towards the door.

When he was almost at the door, he opened it with swift speed, greased his feet, and slipped out in a flash.

Bang!
Yang Mi's eyes widened. Why did you run away? You are so disloyal!

"I didn't sleep last night, and your girl Tiantian pulled me out of bed. Helping her find the script has nothing to do with me. I'm going back to catch up on my sleep." Zhong Xiaoyu yawned and dragged her tired body away.

Three people did it, and only Mimi was left.

Mimi knew she was doomed, so she knelt down quickly, pinched her ears with both hands, and said pitifully, "I also listened to you, Tiantian."

Li Mingyang stared at Mimi for a while, waved his hand irritably, and told her to go away.

Mimi was shocked when she saw this, "Oh my god, your script is really hidden in this secret room!"

"No."

"No? Who are you trying to fool? The script is not here. You must have stabbed me the first time and forced me to do something I didn't want to do. But you asked me to get out. There must be something more important!" Yang Mi said confidently.

Yes, it’s hidden right here!
Li Mingyang came to Mimi and wanted to throw her out.

Yang Mi had been thrown around many times before, so she had some experience. She immediately used her hands and feet to hug Li Mingyang's thighs, "You are such a heartless person. You only know how to throw me around every day. Why don't you throw Jing Tian around?"

Jing Tian at least knew that he had done something wrong, so he ran and hid.

You, on the other hand, don't take me seriously at all and are still thinking about the script.

"You guys searched pretty thoroughly. You should know there are a lot of strange toys in this room. Do you want to try them?"

"You will have the test sooner or later anyway. You can't avoid it if you try...Bring out the script, and I'll let you try today." Yang Mi said as she hugged him tighter.

"That's a bargain for you. I saw on TV that in ancient times there was a kind of water torture where they covered the prisoner's face with a towel and poured water on him, making him think he was about to drown. Do you want to try it?"

"Tsk! It's just the suffocation in SM. I've seen that." Yang Mi didn't take it seriously. She thought to herself, I'm just reading a script. How can you kill me?
Li Mingyang showed no mercy when seeing this. He took off his cotton bathrobe and covered Yang Mi's face with it, tied it behind her head, and grabbed the air. A bottle of mineral water appeared and poured it directly on Mi Mi's face.

The bathrobe is made of pure cotton and is very absorbent.

"Li...Ming...let me go." Yang Mi grabbed around frantically like a drowning person.

Li Mingyang controlled Mimi's hands and feet from behind and poured some more water.

Mimi resisted even more fiercely, wuwuwu, and couldn't even utter a word.

brush!
Li Mingyang lifted up his bathrobe.

Yang Mi took a deep breath of fresh air, wiped her face, and waited until her breathing became even. She suddenly grabbed a bottle on the ground and stared back at Li Mingyang for five full seconds before saying, "You...you actually did this to me!"

After saying this, Yang Mi opened her eyes and two lines of tears trickled down her cheeks. She was extremely sad.

Li Mingyang ignored her, picked her up, threw her out of the air-raid shelter, and locked the door.

Yang Mi lay on the ground and cried for a while. Seeing that Li Mingyang really didn't care about her, she sat on the ground and wiped her tears, saying unhappily, "You bastard, just wait for me and see how I'll deal with you when I get back."

……

The script was in the air-raid shelter, but where it was, Yang Mi, Jing Tian and Zhong Xiaoyu would never have guessed even in their dreams.

Li Mingyang picked up a female device from the ground.

This thing was just lying on the floor, thrown randomly. It was actually a mobile hard drive.

The ones produced by the system...are quite interesting.

Li Mingyang swung the women's mobile hard drive and came to the printer in the corner. He clapped his hands and a box of A4 paper appeared in his hands.

Connect the data cable and start printing the scripts of Seoul Spring and Witch 2.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Wei arrived at the mansion and heard Jing Tian and Yang Mi rummaging through the drawers looking for Li Mingyang's script.

I was speechless, but I said nothing.

Just as it got dark, Wang Changtian and Boss Zhao came to the mansion with a group of people. They ate barbecue and chatted in the yard.

Wait until after eight o'clock in the evening.

The total number of people mobilized at New World on the second day exceeded one million. Not long after that, Li Meijin also arrived with several assistants.

When everyone was present, Li Mingyang cleared the mansion out of the house.

He warmly invited Li Meijin, Boss Zhao and Wang Changtian into the house.

"Is there something you haven't told me?" Zhang Wei asked Li Mingyang in a low voice while changing into slippers.

"You'll know soon." Li Mingyang grinned, his smile was very malicious.

The three founders of Guangxian, CJ Entertainment and Huace gathered together, which must mean big things are going to happen.

Zhang Wei, the person in charge of Huabu Technology, actually just found out that Li Meijin would be coming.

She couldn't help feeling a little resentful, feeling that Li Mingyang didn't respect her.

So after sitting down, Zhang Wei didn't say anything.

In fact, it wasn't her turn to speak.

Li Mingyang took off his sunglasses and spoke frankly.

He started his performance and talked freely.

"I've been in Korea for almost half a year. The harder I work, the less money I have. Now I owe hundreds of millions of dollars to loan sharks."

"You may think I'm crazy for going against iQiyi and Penguin Video."

"I'm actually fine. I had a plan to consolidate all my companies and list them on the U.S. stock market. But as you can see, the Cheongdam-dong incident spread on Weibo, which is a thunderbolt no less than the might of the potato king."

"I don't want to be Wang Wei of Tudou. If we list on the US stock market, this bomb will definitely explode during the listing process, and my reputation will be ruined. No matter where you are, it is unforgivable to make countless people homeless out of greed, not to mention that people have died... Once the listing is shelved, it will be a dead end."

"I will not give up FBTV, nor will I merge with iQiyi... I need money, lots and lots of money..."

"These days I've been thinking about what got me to where I am today, and the answer is obvious: box office."

"It is a consensus in the industry that a movie can't make much money just from the box office. Although I got 2 billion at the box office, I didn't make much money. I was able to get to where I am today by going public."

"I've made up my mind. Since they won't let me play in China, I'll play in Korea. The box office story still works in Korea!"

"I am very confident in my ability. Now all I need is one thing, which is the support of the three of you."

Li Meijin, Wang Changtian and Boss Zhao knew what Li Mingyang was going to do before they arrived.

Their presence here represents support.

However, Li Mingyang's next words shocked everyone present.

"CJ Entertainment is a listed company. The box office has an impact on CJ's stock price, but it is not big enough and the increase is not obvious enough. Why is that?"

"Because the upper limit of Korean movies is there! Tens of millions of viewers!"

"Miracle!"

"We need a box office story about miracles!"

"In the past few days, I have been studying the trend of the Korean film market in the past decade. The trend is very good, and this year is the best start in history."

"Since a single movie cannot create miracles, we will use the movie market to create miracles. We will build up the Korean movie market, surpass Dongda and Xiao Ri Zi, and become the number one in Asia!"
