Chapter 433: Project "Kingdom": Korean netizens are so angry that they vomit blood
Bad Genius was officially released worldwide and became a huge hit. It performed well at the box office in Thailand and also did very well in China and other regions.
Another low-budget hit, Bad Genius was made with a total investment of only 100 million Thai baht, which is only 20 million RMB. However, the first day box office of Bad Genius has already made the film a profit.
The response in the Chinese market, in particular, has made many investors envious. But even more envious are those in Thailand. Compared to other Thai film and television companies, the return on investment for Bad Genius is astonishing. Just look at the box office these days. The money they've made from just one film is more than they've made in several years combined. It's truly infuriating, company after company.
Su Yang came to Thailand to make a movie, and then took it to the Chinese market for screening. It was simply like cheating. After all, in Thailand, looking through the entire entertainment industry, let alone the entertainment industry, even if the king himself acted as an actor, the box office appeal in China could not be compared with Su Yang. It was completely not on the same level.
Take "Bad Genius" for example. If the director of this movie was replaced by another Thai director, the actors remained the original cast, and the movie was still the same, then the box office would definitely be different if this movie was released in China.
"Bad Genius" has made a strong start for Qingyao Media's Thai branch, and it has also made a lot of money. With the film's profits in hand, Qingyao Media's Thai branch will have even greater growth. After all, money is king these days. Qingyao Media, a giant, is beating up Thai entertainment companies like a professional boxer bullying a child.
Just when netizens around the world were hotly discussing "Bad Genius", Qingyao Media's Thailand branch broke another piece of news, and after this news broke, it almost angered Korean netizens to death.
"Qingyao Media's Thailand branch has launched a new project. The Korean drama "Kingdom" will be filmed in China, and a casting announcement has been released..."
Qingyao Media released an announcement, and Su Yang also forwarded it on his social media account. And it was not only forwarded in China, but also on other social media accounts such as Facebook, especially in South Korea.
After seeing this announcement, Korean netizens went crazy, but they were angry, while netizens from other countries burst into laughter.
The announcement was quite detailed, stating that Qingyao Media's Thai branch had approved a TV series for their next project. However, this TV series wasn't a Thai drama, but a Korean one.
Yes, that's right, it's a Korean drama. The story is about the Joseon Dynasty, and the director and screenwriter are both Su Yang. The announcement also released a synopsis of the story.
However, this Korean drama was not produced by a Korean company. Instead, it was produced by a Thai company, but the filming location was in China. Furthermore, the criteria for recruiting actors were even more interesting.
We are recruiting actors from all over the world, not just in Korea, but also in China, Thailand, and Southeast Asian countries. As long as the actor feels that he or she can play the role, no matter if you are Korean, Chinese, or even Japanese, you can play the role.
Most importantly, given Su Yang's reputation in the Korean market, it's highly likely that he won't be able to recruit any top-tier Korean actors, and even ordinary actors will be hard to find. If he can't recruit any, he'll have to use actors from other countries to fill in.
This is interesting, Nima, it is called a Korean drama, but it has nothing to do with Korea. Except that the story takes place in ancient Korea, the investment company is a Thai company, the filming is in China, the screenwriter and director are Chinese, and most of the actors are probably not Korean actors, this is a Korean drama.
"Boycott Su Yang, don't ruin our Korean dramas..."
"Get out, I don't want to see you..."
"Su Yang Oppa is so handsome, I'm looking forward to it..."
"What are you haters saying? If it's not filmed in Korea, it's not a Korean drama. Korean actors can also be in it..."
"Damn it, Su Yang is here just to disgust us. Get out of the Korean market..."
"Looking forward to it..."
As soon as this news came out, the Korean internet exploded again. They had a psychological trauma towards Su Yang. This bastard would come out every once in a while to disgust them.
Now, it's happening again. Damn, this is just catching a sheep and feeding it to shit. Korean drama, this is fucking shitty Korean drama. Please don't ruin our Korean dramas, okay? This kind of Korean drama, if it's bad, will ruin its reputation, and if it's good, it's even more disgusting. In short, no matter whether this work is good or bad, for the sensitive Koreans, this is not a good thing.
Korean netizens were disgusted, while netizens from other countries almost burst out laughing. Chinese and Japanese netizens in particular were eager to watch the fun.
"I'm so happy, Brother Yang is so willful. Can the heroine let Jenny come on?"
"I support Jenny as the female lead, it's a sure thing..."
"Hahaha, there's nothing wrong with using only Chinese actors..."
"Brother Yang's way of playing is too sexy, I'm so happy..."
"The official language of ancient Korea was Chinese, right? Brother Yang, there's nothing wrong with the actors speaking Chinese..."
"Su Yangjun, we Japanese actors are also capable and can play the king..."
These netizens are just here to watch the fun, and their various suggestions have made everyone burst into laughter. This is not even a Korean drama, it's just a Korean drama in disguise.
As for why Su Yang wants to film a Korean drama, fans are not quite sure. However, Su Yang's actions have made countless netizens look forward to it.
Especially with the example of "Bad Genius", many Chinese netizens are looking forward to the performance of this drama after it is filmed. If the quality is really good, this slap in the face is really harsh.
The Kingdom project was officially revealed, sparking heated discussions. Subsequently, Qingyao Media's Thai branch also released more news.
The Korean drama "Kingdom" is a collaboration between Qingyao Media Thailand and Netflix. The series was produced by Qingyao Media Thailand and will be broadcast on Netflix.
The first season of this TV series will be shot in eight episodes. The original version was six episodes, but after Su Yang optimized the script, it became eight episodes.
After becoming eight episodes, the story becomes fuller and better.
As more and more news broke out, the attention paid to this TV series became increasingly high. Especially in South Korea, this TV series was discussed by countless netizens.
This Korean drama is really too outrageous. After ruining the Korean music scene, Su Yang, this bastard, has started ruining Korean dramas again. So the more I think about this matter, the more ridiculous it becomes, and the more depressed I become. Countless Korean netizens are filled with resentment at Su Yang's outrageous actions. Damn it, they have never seen such a shameless foreigner.
