Chapter three hundred and eighty seventh shower

The filming of the movie went very smoothly. According to Guo Zairong's expectation, all shootings can be completed within 20 days.

JYP's crisis continues. Although JYP has pushed the company's price very low, no one has taken over it. After all, local entertainment companies know what the root cause of this crisis is.

Zhang Hehuan accepted Park Jin-joo's suggestion and temporarily gave up the idea of ​​acquiring JYP.

According to what Park Jin-joo has learned, JYP is still trying to transfer the company. It is said that goT Media has offered an extremely low price, which makes JYP unacceptable. JYP wants to transfer its artist contracts in batches, but they soon found that this method of breaking the whole into pieces still cannot work, and goT's influence is too great.

The normal business activities of JYP company have been affected. Many artists, including Suzy, are closed. Suzy comes to the crew to study almost every day. She is very interested in acting and especially appreciates An Ran's acting skills. Park Jin-joo helps her contact a lawyer and is negotiating with the company to terminate the contract.

According to their assessment, it would cost one billion won to win the contract by transferring Bae Suzy, but if you propose to terminate the contract through legal procedures, you would only need to pay a liquidated damages of 2 billion won at most.

It’s rainy in Seoul these days, and they are shooting at the Namyi Island Film and Television Base in Gangwon Province.

Bae Suzy volunteered to be an assistant to An Ran. The two got along very well and exchanged performances and music in their spare time.

An Ran smiled and said, "Let Zhang Hehuan help you write a role. You are now similar to the official crew."

Bae Suzy said: "I am here to study. I am not a formal staff member. At most, I am an extra-staff member." My work has not been going well recently and I am in a bad mood. Fortunately, I have this place to come.

Zhang Hehuan was watching a movie replay next to Guo Zairong. Guo Zairong said: "Mr. Zhang has made great progress recently. I feel that you will have a lot of room for improvement in your performance."

Zhang Hehuan laughed and said, "I hope I haven't lowered the overall quality of this video."

Guo Zairong shook his head: "How could it be? Mr. Zhang, I really can't believe that you have never had a life experience in Korea in the past. How could you understand our customs and culture so thoroughly based on your imagination?"

Zhang Hehuan said: "No long-term life experience does not mean that I do not understand your culture. In fact, many of the cultures in your country are similar to ours."

Guo Zairong smiled a little stiffly. The big boss's words mean that their culture is all copied from others. Guo Zairong doesn't want to discuss the issue of cultural tracing. He is the same as most people in this country, and has a strong sense of self-esteem. In Zhang Hehuan's view, this is the cause of inferiority complex of a small country and a small people.

Guo Zairong said: "According to the current shooting progress, all of them can be completed within 20 days, and the later stage of one month."

Zhang Hehuan expressed satisfaction with Guo Zairong's progress. He told Guo Zairong that he had just bought the copyright of a Korean novel and was starting to change the novel into a script.

The novel Zhang Hehuan mentioned is called "Showers". This novel is the work of the late Korean writer Huang Shunyuan. The copyright is 50 million Korean won, which is equivalent to RMB 200,000.

The novel itself is not very famous, but the movie "If Love Is Will" adapted from the novel set off a tear-jerking craze in Asia. Guo Jae-yong once made Son Ye-jin, Cho Seung-woo, and Cho In-sung famous for this movie. It was also because of this movie that won the Blue Dragon Award Best Director, which represents the highest honor in local films. Of course, this all happened in another parallel world.

In the current time and space, nothing has happened yet. Guo Zairong is still a frustrated MV director who is on the verge of unemployment. While Zhang Hehuan is taking advantage of him, he is also dragging Guo Zairong's life to the right track that should have belonged to him.

When Guo Zairong heard that Zhang Hehuan had bought the copyright of "Showers", his eyes lit up, and even his breathing became a little excited. "Showers" is also his favorite novel. He dreamed of bringing that novel to the big screen, but it was only for dreaming. What qualifications should a useless director who could not even save his work to take action?

Zhang Hehuan said deliberately: "Have Director Guo read this novel?"

Guo Zairong nodded repeatedly: "Huang Shunyuan is my favorite writer. When he passed away in the millennium, I also attended the funeral."

Zhang Hehuan said: "Showers is my next Korean movie to be filmed. I initially plan to name this movie "If Love Is Willing."

Guo Zairong's heart trembled. He had such an idea when he read this novel. How could Zhang Hehuan be so passionate and so familiar with Korean local culture?

Zhang Hehuan said: "I feel that Suzy's temperament is very suitable for this movie."

Guo Zairong looked at the two girls who were chatting not far away, nodded and said, "She does feel like a girl in her first love. What kind of person should the male protagonist in your heart be?"

It is estimated that in 100 cases, Zhang Hehuan wants to recommend himself. In fact, this is not something he should worry about. The copyright belongs to Zhang Hehuan, and he also spends money on the investment. However, Guo Zairong has a special relationship with this work. He still hopes that local actors can play the roles in it, and it is just hope that he will not dare to say it in front of Zhang Hehuan.

Zhang Hehuan said: "First make this movie, I'm still preparing the script. If our movie has a good box office, you can invest in new movies. The investment in "Showers" is much larger than our movie."

Zhang Hehuan came to An Ran and Pei Suji and greeted them. At this time, the crew also had lunch break, and the staff gave them a lunch box.

Everyone in this regard is the same, and even Bae Suzy got a bento.

Bae Suzy smiled and said, "I'm really sorry. I come to the crew to have a meal every day, which will cause you trouble."

An Ran said: "You have also helped the crew a lot. Boss Zhang, should you pay your salary?"

Pei Suji waved his hand quickly and said, "No, no, no." She actually understood that Zhang Hehuan was secretly helping her, and he was behind the scenes to hire a lawyer to negotiate the termination of the contract with JYP.

At this time, Park Jin-joo also came and made a special trip to bring ginseng chicken soup to everyone.

She quietly winked at Zhang Hehuan. Zhang Hehuan understood it and followed her to the shade of the trees in the distance. Park Jinzhu told Zhang Hehuan the latest news.

The negotiation between the lawyer and JYP is going smoothly. The current liquidated damages proposed by JYP are 4 billion won, which is about 20 million yuan. With Suzy's current financial situation, she will definitely not be able to afford the money. The lawyer advises them not to go to court. It is more cost-effective to exchange for 4 billion won for a free agent. However, this matter must be carried out as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams. JYP gives them a deadline of one week.

Zhang Hehuan nodded happily and said, "That's it, I'll solve the problem of these 4 billion won."

Park Jin-joo said: "Do we have to sign an agreement with Suzy first?"

Zhang Hehuan laughed and said, "No need. Just treat this money as I lent to her. There is no need to put too much pressure on her. Of course, it is best if she is willing to sign our company in the future. If there is a better choice, we don't have to force it."

Park Jin-joo looked at Zhang Hehuan in amazement. The total investment of the movies they are currently shooting is only 5 billion won. In order to help Bae Suzy terminate the contract, Zhang Hehuan took out 4 billion won without hesitation. Although she and Suzy have a good relationship, such a large amount of money still need some guarantee.

Zhang Hehuan thought that Suzy had helped him. He would not be able to make that much money for 20 million yuan. "The Voice of China" is not over yet and it is time to settle the dividends. The previous investments have been spent on the movies. He actually doesn't have to spend too much effort to get this money. Whether it is Qiao Shengtian or Chu Qiuyue, he can handle it with just one phone call.

However, Qiao Shengtian's investment must seek huge returns. Although Chu Qiuyue did not ask for returns, he was suspected of making a fuss when he did this.

Zhang Hehuan remembered his uncle Zhang Jialong. The short-term loan of this money should not be a big problem to find him. Moreover, Fuxin Group's business covers overseas and is more convenient across borders.

Zhang Hehuan contacted Zhang Jialong and said that he was shooting a movie and wanted to add a budget.

Zhang Jialong asked about the amount and immediately said there was no problem. Zhang Hehuan told Zhang Jialong that he would pay off the money within half a year.

Zhang Jialong laughed on the phone. He told Zhang Hehuan not to worry. He just regarded the money as lent to him by himself and he didn't have interest. He just regarded it as he invested in the movie. As for the return, if Zhang Hehuan is willing, he would give him the distribution rights of the movie in Hong Kong and Macao. After all, Fu Xin has a complete theater chain in Hong Kong and Tai O, and he is responsible for the arrangement. After the movie is released, Zhang Hehuan will share the accounts according to the current industry rules.

Zhang Hehuan sighed in his heart, this uncle is rich and powerful. In fact, he didn't want to make money from him, nor did he know what movie he had made. In the final analysis, he was helping him. Before the movie was released, the Hong Kong and Taiwan theaters were arranged.

Zhang Hehuan knew that after the release of this movie, it would most likely be a big hit. In addition to the principal, Zhang Jialong would also make a fortune. It was considered to be an unexpected surprise for him.

After receiving a clear answer from Jang Hehuan, Park Jin-joo talked to Soo-ji alone. When Soo-ji heard that Jang Hehuan would lend her 4 billion won to terminate the contract, she was very moved.

"Sister Zhenzhu, I don't know what to say. I can hand over the agency contract to you. I will work hard to make money for the company and strive to repay the money as soon as possible."

Park Jin-joo smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang means that we will talk about the contract later. First, help you terminate the contract. When you restore your freedom, you will consider signing the contract. You can choose our company or make better choices. Mr. Zhang does not want to use this to put pressure on you."
