Chapter 174: Worried Park Ji-yeon
For a good movie, the soundtrack is absolutely the most important thing, just like for a horror movie, what makes you feel most immersed in the scene, is it the sudden appearance of scary scenes, or the scary makeup or horror special effects?
Of course, all of these are included, but more important are the movie soundtrack and sound effects. It is the soundtrack that continuously creates the eerie and terrifying atmosphere, and the sound effects that hit your fragile nerves from time to time, making you suffer in the horror movie world and unable to stop. At this time, the sudden horror scare points can infinitely amplify the emotion of fear.
In Korea, music directors are also considered film composers, but there are actually very few real film composers in Korea, so the term music director has been derived, especially for some romantic and comedy movies. The most common way for Korean filmmakers is to insert some soft BGM and write a song to play in the movie. There are very few real professionals who have made achievements in this field.
To be honest, Antenna's Big Three is a very professional small team in the field of romance films, Korean dramas and programs, and they are quite famous, but they are somewhat different from professional composers.
The number of famous composers in South Korea can be counted on one hand, such as Lee Dong-jun, who served as the composer for "Taegukgi" and "The Cop".
Lee Junmin is the best musician in Korea who is good at describing urban love. He created a touching soundtrack for the Korean drama "Summer Scent" and it has been widely circulated, which has established his position in Asian New Age music. Through the meticulous exploration of musicality, his exquisite and delicate playing skills give people a deep impression of an extraordinary artist.
There is also Cho Young-wo, the master of Korean film soundtracks. His overall style is grand and mysterious, with rich layers, and he can also grasp some light, gentle and even neurotic styles very well. No matter what the film itself is like, the soundtrack of his work is very dazzling.
These are considered to be the more iconic figures in the field of Korean film music. Although they are well-known in this circle, they are extremely rare exceptions .
Moreover, these people are basically only famous in Korea or a small circle in Asia, unlike Japan's true master musician Joe Hisaishi, who is famous all over the world.
Zheng Dongren was somewhat helpless. He didn't agree with Zheng Zaixing's agreement to help. After all, judging from the situation just now, Qiu Changmin was in a state of confusion. Although film composers don't have to be found before filming, it is difficult to find a good composer in Korea without doing it in advance.
Although the three giants are well-known in this circle, they are very biased and are far away from Cao Yingwo and others.
However, the words had already been spoken, and expressing opposition at this time would be too disrespectful to Zheng Zaixing, and it would also cause some problems in the relationship with Qiu Changmin, so Zheng Dongren suddenly remembered what Zheng Xiuheng had said.
"Don't you often compose music for movies? If there are any movie crews recruiting actors, especially actresses, please keep an eye out for me. I have two actresses in my other company!"
"By the way, Director Luo Hongzhen, have the roles for this play been confirmed?" Zheng Dongren remembered Zheng Xiuheng's words and immediately asked.
Luo Hongzhen, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment, and quickly replied respectfully: "Not yet. We have confirmed one male lead, and we have an interested candidate for the other one, and we are in negotiation. Do you have any recommendations for candidates, senior?"
There are many places to talk about relationships in the entertainment industry, but it is not something that can be said casually. Just like Luo Hongzhen asked this question, it sounded casual, but the dry voice of "senior" also showed that the two were unfamiliar.
Zheng Dongren didn't care, and just replied calmly: "I don't have any recommendations, but if there are auditions, you can contact me. The investor of our company seems to have invested in an agency that mainly deals with actors. I can introduce you to them when the time comes!"
Liu Xilie, who was standing by, looked at Zheng Dongren in astonishment, and then complained in his heart: "Dongren brother is still the same, telling lies without blinking an eye!"
For those who work in this circle, investors can be said to be the parents of most people. They are a role that must not be offended and is absolutely necessary.
Hearing Luo Hongzhen say this, Qiu Changmin immediately said: "This is a good thing. In addition to the male lead, many other candidates have not been decided. We have also sent out several invitations. To be honest, since it is a new director and the script is quite sensitive, it would be great if there were good actresses to recommend!"
Luo Hongzhen touched his head somewhat awkwardly. Except for those who entered this circle with evil intentions, most new directors were actually the same. They all hoped to complete their first work according to their own wishes. This could be called a dream, but the reality was that many things could not be simply achieved as desired.
However, I also feel a little sorry for misunderstanding Zheng Dongren's meaning.
Luo Hongzhen also said gratefully: "Thank you very much for the help of the predecessors. As a newcomer, I still have a lot of shortcomings, but I will do more homework and hope to have more opportunities to cooperate with the predecessors in the future!"
After Luo Hongzhen finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became very quiet. He looked at the three seniors in front of him, all of whom had smiles on their faces, while senior Qiu Changmin next to him turned his head away in embarrassment.
"Haha, Changmin, this junior Hongzhen is really good, just like a new employee in our company. Junior Hongzhen, you are going to be a director soon, so don't be so formal, and relax a little in private!" Zheng Dongren said with a smile.
Although Luo Hongzhen is not young anymore, he still looks like a newcomer. In this circle, a 30-year-old director is indeed very young.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. At this moment, Qiu Changmin, Zheng Dongren and the other two have similar attitudes towards their juniors. They can be regarded as Koreans with normal personalities.
This is what the ideal relationship between seniors and juniors should be like.
"Okay, it's almost lunch time, why don't we go out for a drink? We haven't gotten together for a while, and we can talk about your company. I'm really curious. Now that I think about your small studio, I suddenly feel nostalgic. I feel a little uncomfortable sitting here!"
The three giants thought about Qiu Changmin's suggestion and did not reject it. The entertainment industry requires the management of personal connections, and time can still be squeezed out for a meal.
As for the company's affairs, the three of them had also made a decision. In fact, it was Zheng Xiuheng who proposed the selection meeting, but with the current scale of the company, Zheng Xiuheng was not very clear about how to hold it and how to promote it, so he directly proposed this matter to them.
Lee Hyori's current activities mainly focus on the endorsements of several products she has, shooting this year's advertisements, and participating in some commercial activities. The rest are interview invitations from some magazines and programs. Although it is indeed creating revenue for the company, it is not enough to rely solely on Lee Hyori.
As for Lee Hyori's return plan this year, it is mainly because of the jump to the antenna line, which has caused a lot of discussion among the media and the public, and many people are pessimistic. With Lee Hyori's personality, of course she will choose to speak with facts. However, Lee Hyori's intention is to set it at the end of the year and use more than half a year to prepare.
This means that temporarily, the company does not have more sources of income, so Zheng Xiuheng naturally has to think about the future. Now the company happens to have some attention and popularity. After consideration, Zheng Xiuheng decided to hold a selection meeting, of course, he also has to borrow Lee Hyori's name.
After Zheng Dongren returned to the office and put away the script, they toured the company and left together. As for Zheng Dongren, he was not in a hurry to contact Zheng Xiuheng. He planned to learn more about the situation first, such as asking for some more detailed information about the movie, which could be regarded as helping Zheng Xiuheng.
"Mom, will Dad be okay?" Park Ji-yeon no longer had any temper at this moment, and all her anger turned into worry.
Park's mother, who was sitting with Park Ji-yeon, was completely worried as she hugged her daughter. When she heard her daughter's worried question, she could only reluctantly say, "It's okay. Your father would never do such a thing. Don't worry!"
"Don't worry, little sister. Our captain is just here to investigate the situation. As long as your father cooperates with our work, everything will be fine. But, little sister, wasn't your father the director before? How did he get injured suddenly? And I heard that the director of Qingsong Hall has been replaced?" Lin Dazhong, who was sitting on the side, turned his head and asked with a amiable smile.
Park Ji-yeon glanced at him, revealed a disgusting look, and turned her head away. Park Ji-yeon, who was not very old, did not like this kind of pretty boy with a lewd smile at all.
Perhaps because she was forced by her father to practice Taekwondo since she was a child, Park Ji-yeon's personality was greatly influenced.
It has been nearly 20 years since Park Ji-yong founded Qingsong Hall. He almost became a national Taekwondo player, but unfortunately he was not successful in the end. So he placed his hopes on the next generation.
But unfortunately, although the two tried a lot when they were young, they only had one daughter in the end.
South Korea was once one of the countries with the most serious patriarchal concepts in Asia. The idea of favoring boys over girls was very popular, and many women regarded giving birth to sons as their lifelong pursuit and obligation.
Although this kind of thinking has been changing rapidly in recent years, many Korean families have let go of this concept. Although women are still in a disadvantaged position in society, Korean families are not limited to having only one child. If the first child is a daughter, then the second child may be a son, and vice versa.
But unfortunately, Park Ji-yeon was born in 1993, when patriarchal ideas were still quite serious in South Korea. Coupled with Park Ji-yong's obsession, Park Ji-yeon grew up in hard training, because Park Ji-yong's goal was to train her into a national-level taekwondo player.
So Park Ji-yeon's personality is not weak, and at the same time she doesn't like boys who look weak.
Park Ji-yeon didn't like the four policemen who suddenly arrived. At this moment, there were only Lin Dazhong, Huang Chenghu, Park Ji-yeon and Park's mother in the room. The others were all gathered in the bedroom nearby.
However, although she didn't like it, Park Ji-yeon was very curious. She was curious about how the policeman with glasses could be so powerful and easily get rid of her former senior brother. At the same time, she was a little worried about such a person staying with her father. Although she had many dissatisfactions with her father in her heart, she was only worried at the moment.
