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

Chapter 621: Election Battle, Dark Clouds Over the City
"I really didn't expect to be involved in the election. Why is it so difficult to make a movie..." Li Mingyang put his hands in his pockets and looked back at Dongyang Building. "Did you expect this from the beginning? Also, did you and Quan Douguang set up a trap to trick me?"

“Seoul Spring is something you want to shoot yourself.”

Li Mingyang rolled his eyes. “I wanted to shoot it myself, yes, but I didn’t expect it to get involved in the election!”

Li Meijin was silent for a long time before she said, "It is my responsibility if the film cannot be released. I will not take back the Dongyang Building."

"What about the vice president?"

"Without the achievement of 20 million visitors, you only have empty name but no real power."

"Shit, I still have to let it be shown!"

Li Meijin showed a kind smile, so cunning!
The only solution for now is to go to CJ Entertainment to do post-production.

The Toyo Building has a backup power supply, but it can only be used for emergency escape and lighting.

Li Mingyang arranged more than 20 people to guard the gate of the building and asked the others to go back first. Pangu Special Effects will be moved to CJ Entertainment early tomorrow morning.

After finishing all this, Li Mingyang took out his cell phone and called Jin Jaejun.

……

The warning from the Blue House made Li Mingyang feel uneasy.

The so-called film freedom of the Koreans is just superficial. They don’t really dare to shoot anything!

Seoul Spring involves South Korea’s dark history, the shadow government, the military…it also involves the current election trend and the current Blue House!
Li Kaka from the Blue House is now so worried that he can't sleep.

If Lawyer Wen came to power, the outcome would be self-evident.

The power game in Korean politics is becoming increasingly bleak!

CJ becomes the target of public criticism! A secret cultural blacklist is being drawn up!

Stopping celebrities from supporting Lawyer Moon, after all, CJ is the leader of Korean entertainment! The influence on celebrities is too great!
Artists who are “blacklisted” will no longer receive any government funding or filming assistance, which does not seem to mean a ban on the artists’ performing activities.

Who actually dares to take the risk?

The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!

From the power of the dragon!
Lawyer Wen is still quite reliable!

Later, CJ became the dominant player in Korean entertainment, powerful enough to sweep the Oscars with the foreign language film Parasite!
Not like the King of Understanding.

Minister Ma is risking everything to help King Trump win the election.

Not only did he spend $440 billion to acquire Twitter, he also spent hundreds of millions of dollars during the campaign, and even gave out $100 million in "red envelopes" every day to canvass votes.

Minister Ma not only donated money but also contributed his efforts. He personally went to a rally in support of Trump and jumped up and down, even making a bold statement that Trump is the only savior of the United States.

When King Trump came to power, Minister Ma fought for a hundred days, but was finally sold out by King Trump and kicked out, forcing him to pay half of his salary.

Minister Ma, who called others clowns, ended up becoming the biggest clown in the world!

Li Mingyang had several opportunities to come into contact with Trump in the country, but he always kept his distance from him.

This guy is simply selling out his teammates. What's the difference between cooperating with him and seeking death?
I learned about the election situation and some internal gossip from Jin Langjun, and compared them with the situation in my memory.

Li Mingyang thinks he is MPP and says MPP!

If he continues like this, he will soon be on the blacklist.

There was no other way, Li Mingyang could only ask Jin Zaijun to give money to Miss Park to show his loyalty.

Kim Jae-joon is a prosecutor in the Samsung circle and they are in the same group.

Miss Park is also capable... a thousand times better than Mr. Understanding!
Send money that night.

The next day, Li Mingyang felt like he had thrown his money into the gutter.

Park Xingxing is in the hospital because of stomach discomfort, so he won’t be promoting his music today.

Park Xingxing, who had been begging him to cooperate, actually ran away!

This guy obviously got the message and is trying to protect himself, not daring to have too much contact with him!
Lee Byung-hun is also a scumbag, he ran away to Hollywood!

Jung Woo-sung, who Li Mingyang was originally most worried about, has become stronger and has spared no effort to promote Seoul Spring on social platforms.

Lee Jung-jae also worked very hard.

Lin Shilin's little puppy doesn't get along with Samsung.

But... now it’s not a question of promotion, it’s a question of whether it can be released.

Bangzi's movies are more than just movies!
It is possible to launch a petition and urge the government to legislate and amend laws!

Toyo Building, top floor conference room.

In the over 200-square-meter conference room, Li Mingyang sat at the head of the group, smoking a cigar and quietly watching Zhang Wei preside over the weekly meeting.

His left hand was pressing on a court summons.

He is now the defendant and will appear in court in ten days for a hearing on the Cheongdam-dong slum incident. Currently, hundreds of people are sitting in Cheongdam-dong, outside the former Flower Bouquet Technology.

After these people were driven out of their temporary residence, they ran to the outskirts of Huashu Technology and sat in protest against the demolition.

There were more than 50 middle and senior management personnel attending the meeting, who were in charge of various departments of the company.

After the company changed its management model, the number of middle and senior management more than doubled. The company's operations suddenly became easier, with everyone doing their job and everything in order.

However, when something happens, these people give up, and none of them has the courage to face the Blue House.

Except for Zhang Wei, who is an insider, everyone else advised him to wait until after the election before releasing Seoul Spring.

Seoul Spring is released on December 12th.

Voting for the general election is from December 12 to December 5.

December 12th is the day for final voting and counting of ballots.

Seven days difference...

"Director Li, the movie has already been shot, and no one has said it can't be released. Let's stay out of the spotlight and release it next year..."

“There are advantages to delaying it.”

"There's no need to be tough. We are us and CJ is CJ."

"Huahua Entertainment is developing very smoothly in China. Many companies want to cooperate with us. Why don't we return to China first? We will come back when the dust settles."

"Korea is too small and is just a running dog of the United States. We can also try to expand in the United States. Now the company is strong and powerful, so there is no need to limit ourselves to Korea."

"It doesn't matter to us who is in power. If CJ fails, we can switch to Lotte! Lotte has a good relationship with China, and they have already sent people to contact us."

"I looked at the modern history of South Korea. Wow, the current Kaka of South Korea has a grudge against that Wen!"

"Kaka spell, haha!"

When a group of people were slightly targeted, they began to think about ways to retreat. Some wanted to run back to their country, and some wanted to go to the United States.

The other party was just warning you and didn't do anything serious, so you just want to run away.

If a war really broke out, Li Mingyang had no doubt that these people would be scared out of their wits.

Li Mingyang knocked on the table and said with a smile: "The current situation is indeed not very good. Ah Huo is right. Let's make the movie first. Not showing it now does not mean that it cannot be shown in the future."

Zhang Wei looked at Li Mingyang in surprise, but said nothing.

When the others heard what Li Mingyang said, they felt more at ease and laughed happily.

Next, everyone reported on their work.

The nightclub, live broadcast and animation businesses are booming.

Pangu Special Effects moved to CJ Entertainment headquarters, and the post-production of Seoul Spring went very smoothly.

Since FBTV launched Running Man and Xuan-Yuan Sword last month, revenue has improved significantly and income and expenditure have reached a balance.

Almost everyone complains when reporting on the situation that the Korean market is too small.

In particular, Li Ming, who was in charge of live streaming, took over Zhong Xiaoyu's live streaming platform CR and built up the platform's reputation in just over a month.

They do a very good job in live streaming of beauty games.

However, the market for mobile software is too small and the growth rate is slow. Even with more than 10 users, the revenue is not as exaggerated as in China.

The expenditures were very large and the returns did not meet expectations.

After the weekly meeting, everyone else left, leaving only Li Mingyang and Zhang Wei in the meeting room.

"If you don't tell them your true thoughts, there will be problems later," said Zhang Wei.

Li Mingyang propped his elbows on the conference table, his chin in his hands. "We are in Korea, not in China. In China, everyone is willing to work hard, but Korea... didn't you hear it yourself? They all think Korea is too small and has no development. Some want to go to the United States, and some want to return to China."

"They will listen to you."

"They will indeed listen, but only temporarily. They feel they still have a way out. The worst that can happen is they can return to their country. But it's different for me..." Li Mingyang waved to Zhang Wei, motioning her to come closer.

Zhang Wei pulled a chair and sat next to Li Mingyang.

Then Li Mingyang lowered his voice and asked in her ear in a sinister tone: "Are you on good terms with Lee Boo-jin?"

Zhang Wei's heart tightened, but she said without changing her expression, "It's OK."

"How good is it?"

"We went shopping together, had meals together, visited her residence, and occasionally talked on the phone."

Li Mingyang gave a thumbs up and said, "You two are indeed related. You are about the same age, so you should have a lot in common."

Zhang Wei remained silent, staring at Li Mingyang with her beautiful eyes, wondering why he was asking these questions.

Li Mingyang put away his playful smile, took off his sunglasses, and lowered his voice with a serious face, "For the company and for us, one of us must ally with Samsung."

Zhang Wei understood what Li Mingyang meant, and her tense nerves suddenly relaxed. "So you want me to form an alliance with Samsung?"

"Ah."

Zhang Wei shook her head. "The bouquet is yours. I'm just an executor. I'm not the most important. They look at your attitude, not mine."

"Huahua Technology will be listed in the future. You have 20% of the shares of Huahua Technology. No matter what, you are the second largest shareholder. You cannot represent me, but you can represent the company." "I promised you that I would let you be a chaebol. I always remember that you should not underestimate yourself. You are the person I trust the most, more than Lao Wu. Lao Wu is going to be a director, and you are the future chairman of Huahua CJ, the big boss who manages everyone."

Zhang Wei didn't expect that Li Mingyang still remembered his promise.

I also heard Li Mingyang say that he was more important than Lao Wu and would be the future president of Flower Bouquet CJ.

Even though he suspected that Li Mingyang was saying one thing and thinking another, he really enjoyed the sense of recognition and nodded in agreement to form an alliance with Samsung.

After Zhang Wei left.

Li Mingyang was the only one left in the empty conference room.

On another level that only Li Mingyang could see, countless cards were floating in the conference room, circling in the void with a small ball of fire as the center.

"You all have a way out, but I don't..."

Li Mingyang slid his feet and the chair turned. He faced the Han River outside the window and muttered to himself.

Seoul Spring is not only a box office hit, but also a big hit in this year's election!
It will definitely be shown!
Because Seoul Spring is more suitable than "The Attorney" to help Lawyer Wen reach the top!
……

The Advocate has a Douban score of 9.2.

A film that changes reality.

Adapted from the Bulin Incident, it is a transition from Korean military dictatorship to the promotion of democracy. The prototypes are Lukaka and Wenkaka!

After the release of this movie, South Korea held a second-instance trial on the "Bulin Incident", finding the five defendants not guilty, 5 years after the first-instance verdict.

This movie also grossed over 10 million viewers.

Produced by CJ and starring Song Kang-ho.

The director is a newcomer...

This is a movie that has been watched by millions of people and will go down in film history!
Li Mingyang also wanted to shoot a film. In CJ's script library, he saw the script of The Defense.

Then the film was not only completed, but the post-production was also done, and it was just waiting to be released.

Just like Seoul Spring, it was suppressed!

The director has been blacklisted.

The support rate of a double-sided king's order soared. How could such a mistake happen a second time...

If it happens a second time, someone will really have to sink into the Han River to apologize!
The Attorney and Seoul Spring have one thing in common, that is, they both have Jeon Doo-kwang, and both are villains...

But the defense was too fierce. Not only was the director blacklisted, he was also suspected of drunk driving and was arrested, and was not given bail...

Seoul Spring has a chance of being released.

The chaebols cannot be easily moved.

Behind this is the interest of the entire chaebol.

Everyone knows that the lips and teeth are interdependent. So in the end, Li Meijin fled to the United States.

The Blue House didn't dare to do anything to him. After all, he was not a Korean, he was from Dongdaemun.

He is also an iconic figure in China-Korea cultural promotion.

In the following days, Li Mingyang stopped promoting Seoul Spring and asked others to calm down.

The post-production of Seoul Spring returned to Dongyang Building.

CJ Entertainment experienced eight power outages a day, each lasting several minutes.

It's not rendering at all.

He gave up on publicity and let Jin Langjun take money to manage the power company.

Toyo Building returned to normal.

Li Mingyang goes back and forth between his villa in Seongbuk-dong and Dongyang Building every day, checks the progress of post-production and occasionally visits the court.

Sitting in the audience and watching others being tried.

Since it was just a hearing, it was not open to the public and there were no reporters.

With nothing to do, Li Mingyang started learning to paint, with Ah Huo as his teacher, starting with the most basic sketching.

On November 11th, it was drizzling.

Li Mingyang, Tiantian and Liu Yifei are drawing apples together in the No. 3 hand-drawing room of Pangu Animation Department.

"I've finished drawing!" Liu Yifei clapped her hands and said easily.

Jing Tian turned her head and took a look, and found that the apple painted by Liu Yifei was very three-dimensional. "Have you learned it?"

"I learned a little when I was a child, and I occasionally drew." Liu Yifei stood up, came behind Jing Tian, ​​and watched what Jing Tian drew with her hands behind her back.

The outline is very similar, and I added a little leaf myself which is very cute.

“You draw so cute.”

"Isn't it cute?" Jing Tian took her painting off the drawing board and smiled happily.

"Uh-huh."

The two girls came behind Li Mingyang again to see how Li Mingyang was painting.

There were several apples drawn in crooked patterns on the white paper. They were all semi-finished products and looked very abstract. Some looked like oranges and some looked like grapefruits.

"Husband, you still need to practice. Do you want me to teach you?" Jing Tian always thought that Li Mingyang knew everything. Since she came to Korea yesterday, she found out that Li Mingyang couldn't draw. She was so happy that she wanted to be his teacher.

Li Mingyang hasn't replied yet.

Ah Huo said, "Boss, you are a beginner, it's your first time to paint like this in a week, it's already pretty good. You all have two or three years of experience, it's different."

"Ahuo is right." Li Mingyang quickly responded.

"Honey, you wear sunglasses when you paint, can you see clearly?"

"Once you get used to wearing them, you can distinguish between light and dark. But when you take them off, it becomes confusing." Li Mingyang said as he painted, "Sunglasses reduce brightness, so there is room for maneuver. It's easy to change a picture from dark to light, but it's difficult to change it from light to dark."

"So wearing sunglasses helps with filming?" Tianxian asked.

Jing Tian also looks like a curious baby.

Li Mingyang laughed, "It's all talent, it has nothing to do with the sunglasses. I'm just too lazy to adapt again."

Jing Tian rolled his eyes. Tian Xian wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. After all, Jing Tian was now the director of her new movie.

The Four 2 and The Four 3 were filmed back to back.

She runs back and forth between the two crews.

She originally felt very embarrassed, but she didn't expect Jing Tian to go to activities while taking photos.

Yang Mi is filming three dramas at the same time, working non-stop and not afraid of exhausting herself.

July and Ansheng, it was fine when filming just started.

Later, the three of them had very little time to spend together.

Seoul Spring was completed in just over a month. Jing Tian directly stopped the production and decided to stop shooting the interior scenes in China and go to Korea instead.

Liu Yifei and Yang Mi knew that Jing Tian was going to find Li Mingyang.

Naturally, it is what you want.

Neither of them had any idea about the material shot by Jing Tian.

rustling...

Li Mingyang drew an apple that he was quite satisfied with, and was about to ask Ah Huo to comment on it and see how he drew it.

A series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.

Li Mingyang even thought the police had arrived.

Unexpectedly, it wasn’t the police who came, but Xiao Ye and his group. The later stage of Seoul Spring was completed.

"Is everything done?"

"Everything has been done, and the finished film has been produced." Xiao Ye said.

Li Mingyang stood up suddenly and said to Zhang Wei who was sitting in the corner reading a report, "Shit, it's finally done. Zhang Wei, call Li Meijin and ask her to come and watch the film."

Zhang Wei did not answer immediately. Instead, in front of everyone's surprised gaze, she pulled Li Mingyang to a corner, and they sat shoulder to shoulder, close to each other, whispering.

"Tiantian... Why does it feel like Manager Zhang and Li Mingyang are... too close?" Liu Yifei whispered in Jing Tian's ear.

Make a big deal out of a molehill.

Jing Tian shrugged indifferently. She knew very well what kind of person her man was.

He would only cheat people like Zhang Wei, who are really capable and can help him manage the company, to earn their lives, not their bodies.

Jing Tian and Zhang Wei have lived together in the Chengbeidong mansion several times, for a total of more than two months.

Zhang Wei is definitely the most hardworking manager she has ever seen...

She also hopes that Zhang Wei will work hard so that her husband will have time to make a movie for her.

Li Mingyang and Zhang Wei chatted for a while and decided not to call her Li Meijin anymore.

Show it to Lee Boo-jin first.

Lee Boo-jin was very interested in Seoul Spring and specifically told Zhang Wei that if the film was completed, she must be the first to see it.

"Tiantian, you haven't visited the new company yet, Zhang Wei, take them around."

Jing Tian nodded, being very well behaved.

He turned around and pulled Liu Yifei, who was full of curiosity, away.
