Text Volume 695 Cho’s eldest son, Lee Jun-hyun, Korea, Seoul
As Cao Xuan's new work, "Dear" is nominally a world premiere, but in fact it is mainly in Asia, but it is also scheduled to be released in Europe and the United States.
After all, it is about family love and anti-trafficking, so even non-Chinese and East Asian audiences can understand the story.
However, there is no need to think about the European and American box office. Instead, you can consider DVD and TV channels. Even in Asia, Cao Xuan does not have much hope, but the channel and its own appeal are here, and it is still released in some theaters at the same time.
"Dear" in South Korea is released one day earlier than in China.
South Korea has three major cinema chain overlords, Lotte, CGV and Megalo. Among them, CGV is the strongest. It not only has many cinemas in South Korea, but also has cinema chain investments around the world, including more than a dozen cinemas in China.
And this CGV theater chain is a subsidiary of the Korean entertainment consortium CJ Group, and is also the main partner of Fanxing Films.
In addition to the three major theater chains, South Korea also has some independent theater chains and theaters.
For example, there is a Shilla Cinema next to the famous Shilla Hotel. It is small in scale and rarely open to the public. It is basically only open to guests of the Shilla Hotel.
In fact, normal high-end hotels have their own cinemas, and even some luxury suites have their own audio-visual rooms.
However, the hotel can only play some movies that have already been released. If there are guests who want to watch new movies that are being released, the hotel cannot accommodate them.
Under normal circumstances, there are not many guests who insist on watching new movies. Even if they want to watch, they go to the cinema themselves. There will be no guests who insist on asking the hotel to provide new movies. Otherwise, it is just causing trouble.
But the Shilla Hotel is no better than Renren. Just for such a tasteless service, it opened a regular cinema next to the hotel that can get the rights to show new movies.
It may seem a bit mindless, but many people fall for this extravagant and lustful routine.
There are class divisions in Korea. Some people are too poor to afford kimchi, while others live in Rome and think about how to play every day, and how to play it interestingly and with dignity.
There is also a group of people, the so-called middle-class elites, who are frivolous, like to show off, pursue petty bourgeoisie, and try their best to live in the world.
This operation of Shilla Hotel just scratched their itch.
If you want to watch a movie here, you must first book a room at the Shilla Hotel or become a hotel VIP member. Although you spend a lot of money, it feels like a high-end theater that ordinary people cannot enter.
The really rich and young people may get tired of coming here after a few visits. High-end theaters are just that. If they really want to watch a movie, they can book the theater directly.
Shilla Cinema’s real target group is the young people and students who follow the trend.
Booking a room in a hotel, watching a movie, and showing off on social media satisfies their vanity.
To put it bluntly, it is a kind of Internet celebrity check-in routine and hotel add-on projects. In addition to cinemas, the Shilla Hotel also has outdoor and indoor swimming pools, gyms, restaurants, SAP, luxury stores and other services, which has greatly promoted the Shilla Hotel's mid- to low-level business.
Don't look at it, these businesses are far less profitable than some presidential suites, travel, business meetings, wedding banquets and other businesses.
But if it is continued throughout the year, it will be the bulk of the hotel's revenue.
After all, it is a five-star hotel, and even the cheapest rooms and services are actually quite expensive.
It is also difficult for others to learn. It is not difficult to open a movie theater, but it is not a trivial matter to not open it to the public and get copies of new movies.
Film companies and distribution companies want to make money, and what they strive for is high box office. Cinemas are not open to the public. This conflicts with their interests, and they will never give in easily.
The reason why Shilla Hotel can handle all parties is that it will provide a sum of money as compensation every year, and the president of Shilla Hotel is surnamed Li.
Li from the Samsung Li family, Li Fuzhen, the eldest princess of Samsung...
In the afternoon, after being notified by the front desk, the person in charge of Silla Cinema hurried to a cinema, looked at Li Fuzhen who was looking at a poster at the door, and greeted him respectfully.
Li Fuzhen just nodded, but a little boy who looked about twelve or thirteen years old next to him greeted him with a smile.
"Okay, okay, long time no see, Master Junxian."
The person in charge, Luo Wenjun, has a kind smile. He started working for Samsung in the 1990s. He was transferred to the Shilla Hotel in 2005 and became Li Fuzhen's confidant. He has been working for the Li family for more than 20 years.
In his more than 20 years of working at Samsung, and working in hotels, he has met countless second and third generations of chaebols.
But to be honest, those plutocrats have prominent backstage families, and most people are above their heads. There are really not many people who can have such a child who is polite.
And this can be said to be an education issue, but the appearance of this child is the most impressive.
At a young age, he is already very handsome, with bright eyes, a well-proportioned body, a graceful appearance, and an extraordinary temperament. He is a good candidate for a peerless beauty.
The Korean chaebols have accumulated for several generations and have been consciously optimizing and improving their genes. Although the family may not all be handsome men and beautiful women, they are also honest and generous. With this background, the probability of having a beautiful woman is much higher than that of ordinary people.
But after all these years, Luo Wenjun, purely natural and without technology, there is no one among the descendants of the chaebol who is more handsome than the young master in front of him, none of them.
If it were extended to the private sector, with a large population and hidden dragons and crouching tigers, there wouldn't be anyone who could fight against the young master.
However, the family upbringing and education they received since childhood are different. Even if they are beaten in the face, their temperament and quality are quite different.
Of course, appearance is secondary to the plutocratic family; background, ability and whether you are favored by the family are the key.
As for this young master Li Junxian, his mother is the eldest princess of Samsung. The latter is currently in charge of Samsung's hotels, tourism, entertainment, as well as some industries such as chemicals, food, and construction. She is also the person in charge of Samsung's Shilla Hotel and Zhenlebao Company.
Samsung's first female president.
Although the Crown Prince of Samsung, who has already served as the vice president, has a huge advantage in the battle for the successor, who can underestimate this eldest princess who is loved by the president and has considerable power.
The most important thing is that Li Junxian's surname is Li, and his name was obtained personally by the old president Li Jianxi, making him very popular among the old couple.
Moreover, the young master is not only beautiful, but also smart. Not only does he have good academic performance, but he is also proficient in music theory at a young age.
It is said that when the former president of the club celebrated his 70th birthday, the young master, who was not yet 10 years old at that time, played a piano piece with excellent quality, which won a lot of applause and greatly comforted the elder of the club.
It's enough for the young master to strive for success on his own. The most important thing is that the prince's son Li Zhihao is not as good as him in everything.
Not only did he have bad grades, but overall he had a lot of good points and a lot of bad points, and he had a dull personality. He didn't have any special skills, and he was even considered to have intellectual problems by the outside world.
Last year, Lee Ji-ho made a big joke. His father, the Crown Prince, sent him to South Korea's top middle school in the name of.
And this so-called is for those poor students who have excellent grades but have no money to go to school.
No matter how powerful the chaebol is, it can't block the sky with one hand. When this incident broke out, he was criticized by everyone in South Korea. He was forced to drop out of school in just half a year and seemed to be transferred to China to study.
Under the guidance of such a cousin of the same generation, Li Junxian's score of 8 points also became 12 points.
So much so that Li Fuzhen's confidants like Luo Wenjun also looked at the young master differently. Although the eldest princess and the prince did not have an advantage, it was hard to say for the next generation.
Although Li Junxian comes from an embarrassing background, he is also a direct descendant of the Li family. The old president personally chose the surname Li, so who dares to say that he has no inheritance rights.
After all, South Korea is a patriarchal society. No matter how strong the eldest princess is, she is still powerless. But when she has a son, everything changes.
The Li family and Samsung may not allow a woman to take power, but if a child of Li family blood takes over, many opinions will have different explanations.
Especially when the eldest son and eldest grandson Li Zhihao failed to live up to expectations, the existence of the young master Li Junxian did not less than help his mother recruit troops and inspire people.
After exchanging a few words, Luo Wenjun heard the words in his earphones
Say, respectfully give up your body.
"Go and do your work. We'll do it ourselves, and we'll just have to ask someone to bring us some food."
Luo Wenjun watched Li Fuzhen and his son enter the theater, and then hurriedly sent people to prepare food.
But after he left, Li Junxian, who was originally well-behaved and sensible, immediately changed his appearance.
Li Junxian thought about Luo Wenjun's bald and fat appearance, couldn't help but shuddered, and his handsome little face wrinkled.
Li Fuzhen behaves like an iceberg queen outside, noble and reserved, but is much more casual in front of his son.
Li Junxian is now in his early 10s. He looks mature and extremely intelligent, but in reality he is still a child at heart. He loves to eat and play, but he has more self-control than ordinary children.
The mother and son were talking, and the service staff brought drinks, snacks and fruits. The two of them sat in the 100-square-meter movie theater and watched the movie on the screen in silence.
The movie is Cao Xuan's new work "Dear", which is also a daily project for the mother and son.
When Cao Xuan's new movies or works are not released, Li Fuzhen will take his son to watch them and let him recognize his father.
That's right, this young master Li Junxian is Cao's eldest son who was left behind. His Chinese name is Cao Xian.
After the child became sensible, Li Fuzhen told his son his life story. Of course, the whole process became much more beautified.
In short, two people who truly love each other cannot be together and can only reluctantly break up.
The woman became pregnant on the last night. She did not tell the man about the child. She secretly gave birth to the child and raised it. She wanted to hide it for the rest of her life, but she couldn't bear the child's low self-esteem as a child without a father, so she told the truth.
The story is beautiful, but it also has a lot of flaws, but children are still willing to believe in these pure love stories.
Moreover, as children, we always have certain filters for our parents, so it’s good to deal with it this way, and we don’t have any big resentment towards our parents.
Otherwise, if you want to know the truth, your mother cheated on you during marriage, your father is a thief, and your birth was the result of a bad fate and conspiracy, your child may have a broken outlook on life and become autistic.
By saying this, Li Fuzhen saved face for himself. If Cao Xuan learns about it in the future, he will not tell the truth for the sake of his children.
Just treat the two of them as if they were destined to each other. Although the child is sorry, it won't be too uncomfortable.
When children grow up, even if they sense something is wrong, mature mentally, and know the rights and wrongs of adults, they will not continue to ask questions...
Li Fuzhen's purpose of telling her son that his father was Cao Xuan was so complicated that it was difficult for her to explain clearly what she had in mind.
It is very clear that she did deliberately establish a tall and majestic image of Cao Xuan in front of her son.
Cao Xuan's works and some glorious deeds will be told to him in full, which makes Li Junxian particularly admire and feel proud of his legendary father even though he has never seen Cao Xuan in person since he was a child.
Different from the low self-esteem of many children from single-parent families, Li Junxian not only does not have low self-esteem, but is more confident than the average person.
My mother is the eldest princess of Samsung, and my father is a self-made super rich man and a superstar. In terms of family background, he is definitely the best match in the world. Why should he feel inferior?
Li Fu was really happy about this, but the sequelae was that the child wanted to recognize his father every day, which gave the eldest princess a lot of headaches.
Soon, the movie "Dear" started.
Cao Xuan looks like a downcast middle-aged man
On the stage, given his background, even if he deliberately pretends to be ugly, he can still be regarded as a handsome guy among ordinary people.
However, Li Junxian, who has watched his father's handsome photos for many years and is quite narcissistic about the appearance inherited from his parents, has different opinions on this appearance.
Li Fuzhen patted his son. Due to various reasons, Li Junxian had always had a bad relationship with most people in the Li family, especially the prince's family. This was another important reason why he was particularly close to Cao Xuan.
The beginning of the story of "Dear" shows the conflict between the male protagonist played by Cao Xuan and his ex-wife Zeng Li, and then there is the scene where the son is lost.
The pace is fast, and Li Junxian's questions never stop.
"This little brother looks a bit like my dad. Is he my biological brother?"
"You said that Aunt Zeng is also my father's current girlfriend, but my father has many girlfriends, more than my uncle."
"..."
Li Fuzhen's ears were buzzing from the noise, and his son inadvertently stabbed him several times. He finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Shut up, don't talk during the movie."
Li Junxian was a little aggrieved, but he was still obedient. Although his mother would not beat him, if he dared to be naughty, there were many ways to punish him.
The plot of "Dear" progresses very quickly. The child is lost. The male protagonist and his wife are shocked and sad, and they are trapped in a long journey to find the child.
I was cheated and beaten, and it was hard to describe the ups and downs. Later, I joined a child-finding organization that helped each other, and I finally stabilized.
Everyone in this organization is a sad person who has lost a child. Everyone's experience is not much better than that of the male protagonist. Everyone hugs each other to keep each other warm and encourage each other.
This scene can be called the most realistic and heart-wrenching plot in the entire movie.
Seeing each sad person calmly and even jokingly introducing the tragic events that happened to them, the atmosphere was calm but filled with a deep sense of grief and numbness.
Even Li Junxian, who didn't understand the movie very well, couldn't help crying when he saw this scene.
To his relief, the male protagonist later found his son.
In other words... grab it!
After being missing for several years, the child no longer recognizes his parents, and does not even know that he is a child who was sold. In order to avoid alerting the traffickers or adopters, the best way is to snatch the child and then contact the relevant departments to deal with it.
This scene was adapted by the crew based on real events. In the stories shared by several prototypes, several children were indeed snatched back.
Families who buy children are usually from rural areas. Most of them do not understand the law at all, and they are united to protect their own shortcomings, and they cannot communicate with each other normally.
Even if the police were there and hundreds of villagers surrounded them, they would not be able to forcefully take the child out. In addition to avoiding conflicts, they were also afraid of frightening or hurting the child.
When the village committee is asked to come forward to deal with the problem, many people just deal with it perfunctorily, or there is nothing they can do about it.
When they are desperate, they take their children out to work and hide for two or three years. No one can tell them and they can't find a place even if they try to look for them.
Therefore, sometimes, it is inevitable to use some special means to steal or snatch the child out first.
As long as the child is obtained, the appraisal can be done directly, and when the truth comes out, subsequent processing will be more convenient.
So the most ridiculous and shocking scene in the movie was staged. The biological parents ran away with the child, and the adoptive mother who was entrusted to be raised by the traffickers led the villagers to chase her. The abducted child cried and shouted for the adoptive mother.
There is nothing more absurd in the world than this!
Fortunately, the identity of the child was later confirmed, and the male protagonist succeeded in finding the child. The scene of each other hugging each other and crying made people unable to help but cry with sadness.
Li Junxian's heart also swelled, and he looked at Li Fuzhen with tears in his eyes.
"Mom, if I were lost, would you look for me?"
Li Fuzhen took his son into his arms and patted him
shoot
"What about my dad?"
Li Fuzhen paused for a moment and continued to reply firmly.
Li Junxian sobbed
Li Fuzhen was silent for a while and suddenly asked a question
Li Junxian performed extremely well and indeed brought her a lot of help, but if a tree is as good as the forest, the wind will destroy it.
Today, although Li Junxian is loved by thousands of people, he has also become a thorn in the side of many people.
When she was still young, she could often take care of her, but as her children grew older and their range of activities expanded, she did not dare to fully guarantee their safety at all times. After all, she was powerful, but her opponents were equally powerful.
It's not a good thing either.
So she has always had an idea in her mind to arrange for her children to study abroad in China when they reach middle school.
On the one hand, she recognized her biological father and resolved the child and her inner obsession; on the other hand, she wanted to get rid of the vortex of Korea.
In China, she still believed in Boss Cao's energy. Even with Cao Xuan's support, her son's safety in South Korea would no longer be a problem.
She was reluctant to let go of her son before, and she didn't know how to face Cao Xuan, so she couldn't make up her mind.
But now it seems that whether it is the hope of my son or the changes in the current situation, this matter will be put on the agenda...
