Chapter 74 Make an offer



"Any plans for the weekend?"

"I'm going to the movies with my girlfriend. There's a good movie coming out recently."

"New world, right? I've seen it."

"how?"

"This is awesome! This is the kind of movie that men should watch..."

"Does PD Li have any new filming plans? I'm really looking forward to his future performance..."

'Trigger the hidden mission: Sequel to Sincere Friendship, a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water.'

'When you were in the most difficult time, the other party lent you a hand and touched you with kindness. As a big brother, I will keep this gratitude in my heart.'

'Help the other person find their direction in life, and the reward will be calculated.'

'The opening rate of the trendy entertainment library is 17%.'

Behind a large, straight mahogany desk, Li Zhenyu was writing furiously.

In 15 days since its release, "New World" has attracted over 6 million viewers and grossed over 50 billion yuan.

As a new PD, Li Zhenyu has become famous.

But he declined almost all invitations and locked himself in the room to do secondary creation.

In fact, copyrights of works including "My Love from the Star", "Descendants of the Sun", "Squid Game", "Parasite", "Horror Live", "Bad Guys", and "The King" have been registered with KCC.

This time, the entertainment library was opened for the second time, and he got a lot of new "inspirations."

Among them, "The Thieves" and "Miracle in Cell No. 7" were selected by Lee Jin-woo first. He had to turn the "inspiration" into a script and register it with KCC before he could feel at ease.

The outside world is speculating what his next plan will be.

Will it continue with the crime theme, or will it look for new breakthroughs and reach new heights in new themes?

Or, never recover! However, Li Zhenyu has already decided on the next shooting plan.

Buzz~ "Hello..."

"Zhenyu, it's your uncle. How's the script going?"

The movie "New World" greatly increased Sun Jingzhi's reputation within the group and brought him both fame and fortune.

It also made him particularly concerned about Li Zhenyu's next move.

Today, Li Zhenyu, who has become famous, is no longer a hot topic and everyone wants to get a piece of the pie from him.

Although Sun Jingzhi was confident that he would be his first choice.

However, you should also show your expectations appropriately. If you don’t say it, how will others know what you want?

It's not about love...

“I’m already writing it.”

"I noticed that there are several more scripts with your name on them on KCC. Don't you have any that can be filmed?"

"...Sancun, as the vice president of CJ Entertainment, don't you have anything else to do?" Li Zhenyu was helpless. He didn't feel tired of staring at KCC all day long.

"Aigu, I'm not just concerned about our Zhenyu. You're a big director now."

"I'll give it to you...By the way, does Bong Joon-ho have any plans recently?"

"No, continue to let him be your assistant."

"No, I plan to ask him to direct a new film on his own. You will understand when you see the script."

After hanging up the phone, Li Zhenyu closed the script. The words "Parasite" were written on the white cover.

This time, he plans to shoot two films at the same time.

"Parasite" was sent to the international market, while the local market continued with the previous style and filmed "The Heist" which created a box office miracle.

The overall style of "The Heist" tends to be light-hearted/funny, and its logic is not so tight.

But as a funny and light-hearted action movie, it is good enough.

However, there will be some changes in the casting.

For example, the Yan country's extras, the awkward Chinese language really makes people feel uncomfortable.

What the little Korean guy said was better than the performance of the extras.

The Chinese are not as good as foreigners in putting it, where the hell can we get justice from this?

Cultural export is a national strategy of South Korea. The little Korean country does not want to be piggybacked by the culture of Yan country, but it is reluctant to give up the lucrative inland market.

Typical of both...

Li Zhenyu did not have this concern. As a small Korean, he naturally could not stand up and sing the national anthem.

However, it is still possible to show the true image of Yan State.

I'd better leave that kind of stilted Chinese to other directors to disgust people! In his crew, such unprofessional performance will never be allowed.

High pay? Even the best actor can’t afford it, but there are plenty of extras who get paid 200 yuan.

After the film was released, people said that they were also an extra in the "transnational filming" blockbuster.

At least the value of your net worth will increase by a few hundred yuan!

"President, Captain Pike is here, it's time for training."

“Here I come.”

After closing the script that he was almost done with, Li Zhenyu stood up, stretched his joints and neck, then turned and walked towards the rooftop.

The performance stage on the rooftop, in a vacant corner.

Li Zhenyu ordered people to transform it into a fitness corner, where simple training equipment, dumbbell racks, etc. were placed.

On the other side is a 'natural arena.'

There are no mats, side ropes, referees or rules.

Bang, bang, bang~ The sound of fists hitting flesh is full of wild hormones.

The air at the scene seemed to be several degrees higher than outside.

"Power, Boss, control your power..."

While dodging, Pike reminded him to hold back.

Otherwise, you would feel bad if you got punched.

There is still a bruise on the right side of his abdomen from the last time he was hit by a fist and failed to dodge.

Taste, huh...

"Punch faster, left straight, hook...elbow, don't forget the knee...yes, that's it."

Parker's urging was like an old lady's nagging, making Li Zhenyu's anger grow more and more intense.

Bang! A standard right straight punch, and Parker fell backwards.

"hiss."

Pike put down his arms that were trembling like he was electrocuted, and said with a painful expression: "Boss, you should put away your strength."

"Sorry." Li Zhenyu pulled him up and said apologetically, "Do I need to take you to the hospital?"

"No, just apply some medicated wine." Pike forced a smile. He felt much better now.

Although it still hurts, at least it is not as unbearable as at the beginning.

"Medicinal wine?"

"Yes, it's a magical medicinal wine from Yan Country. It was given to me as a gift by the Yan Country players during the joint competition. They are very nice people."

Li Zhenyu raised his eyebrows and pointed at him with the corners of his mouth curled up: "Yes, I am beginning to like you, Parker."

“???” Parker was confused, but still happy about it.

Shouldn't you feel happy if your boss likes you?

After rubbing the unlabeled medicinal wine in a glass bottle, Parker's tense expression was relieved.

"Boss, you are too powerful. If possible, please try not to conflict with others."

"Are you worried about the BOSS?" Corey, who had just finished training, asked with a smile.

Taking turns to serve as sparring partners, they have truly experienced what it feels like to be attacked by a 'bear'.

Pike glanced at him and said calmly, "No, I'm worried that his opponent won't have a chance to speak again."

Corey's expression froze, and he smiled bitterly: "That makes sense."

"Where are the others?" Pike was a little curious as to why he was the only one there.

"Vincent and Nico are looking for a suitable boxing gym."

They need a place where they can fully display their skills, train, and simulate actual combat.

"Are you interested?"

"Seongbuk-dong, is that the name? There are some old-fashioned Taekwondo gyms there. Maybe we can renovate them."

"That's a good idea, Boss, what do you think?"

"Go and have a look."

There was a Land Rover in front and a Mercedes-Benz GLE in the back, both cars were parked at the entrance of the dilapidated Taekwondo gym.

Still in Seoul, Seongbuk-dong.

Here and the prosperous and luxurious villa area for the rich at the end of the sight are like two separate worlds.

The shaking door tells of its loneliness.

Pushing open the door and walking into the yard, there were weeds growing in the corner and a piece of land that had been cultivated and planted with vegetables.

"Who are you?" The girl in a simple long dress looked at the uninvited guests in surprise.

Three minutes later, Li Zhenyu and his companions met the owner of the gym.

The white-haired owner of the museum is the girl's grandfather, and it seems that they are the only two people living here.

"I want to buy this place and turn it into a training hall. Old man, name your price!"

The front and back yards together cover about 7 acres.

Li Zhenyu plans to demolish the Japanese-style house in the middle and rebuild it.

The simple and convenient steel frame structure is stronger, more durable and more suitable for their needs.

As for the courtyard, you can place some outdoor training equipment.

There are two more parking spaces for your convenience.

"Young man, I won't sell this place." The old owner insisted that he would not sell his lifelong persistence.

"Tell me a number!" Li Zhenyu responded with a smile.

Seeing his confident smile, the old owner was somewhat displeased and shouted out a number in anger: "500...600 million, you have so much money..."

He took out his checkbook and placed it on the table, wrote down a number and signed his name.

Hiss~ "Now, it's mine. I'll give you two days to move out. The money will be enough for you to move to a more comfortable place."

Li Zhenyu pushed the check in front of the other party and left decisively under the astonished and surprised gaze of the old owner.

"Wow~" Nicole, who was dressed in a tight outfit, blinked and quickly followed out.

"Why, has the boss made you infatuated?" Vincent asked jokingly.

Nicole punched him back and scolded him with a smile: "A clean and decisive man can always make people's heart move, don't you think?"

“Of course, but don’t forget your responsibilities.” Vincent’s expression gradually became serious.

"Vincent, I know what I'm doing. I'm a soldier, a well-trained soldier, OK?"

"You'd better know..."

Amidst the bickering, the two men walked out of the gym and got into the Mercedes-Benz behind.

Corey, who had been waiting in the cab for a long time, asked, "The boss is leaving, is there any problem?"

"No, let's go!"

The two cars drove out of the gym one after the other just as they had come, and returned to the civilized world from which they came.

"President, who will be responsible for the renovation of the gym?" Jin Zhengshuo asked what he meant.

"I'll arrange it."

If Kim Ji-yeon gets Ssangyong Construction, this matter will be left to her.

The whole transformation is not complicated, and people who believe in her can do it well.

If you haven't done that yet, find a reputable private contractor.

Nowadays, there are many small independent design studios, and they all have architectural firms to work with.

It's easy for professionals to handle this little thing.
