Kang Di-gyu? One of the most famous directors in South Korea. His status in South Korea is the same as that of Zhang Yimou in China and Takeshi Kitano in Japan. This kind of great director needs his own help.
Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, seemed to have thought of something and said: "Has the conflict between the Korean government and the entertainment industry not been resolved yet? I heard that director Jiang Digui launched a skinhead movement last year. This does not mean that the film quota issue has been settled.
Is it settled? Is there something unexpected that can't happen?"
Because of the film quota issue, Korean stars and the government have been fighting fiercely. Celebrities in the entertainment industry, led by Kang Digui, launched a skinhead movement to protest the government's inaction. This was quite influential last year.
Takeshi Kitano said with a solemn look in his eyes: "Well, of course, last year the Korean government made some concessions, but some people in Hollywood were a little unhappy about this matter.
Therefore, things have had some twists and turns, and therefore some external support is needed. After much deliberation, Jiang Digui found me, hoping that I could come forward to provide some support to my Korean colleagues. I think, if this matter is
As for the issue of film quotas, we in Japan are still not as experienced as you from China. If you, Ye Sang, can support us, then I think it will have a very big effect."
When it comes to importing films, only one company, China Film Group Corporation, can do this in China. The rest are powerful pirated discs. No matter who the remaining film companies are, they do not have this legal qualification. Therefore, when it comes to respecting our own country,
In fact, China is still the most powerful in protecting the film market.
Of course, this is also because Japan and South Korea are both little brothers of the United States. Naturally, there are a lot of Japanese and Korean traitors who want to sell their own country's interests to please the United States.
But the Korean government seems to have gone too far this time. Therefore, there was a large-scale protest by people in the entertainment industry. Only then did the skinhead movement come into being last year. It clearly meant that the matter had come to an end. Who knows what is happening in Hollywood?
Some people are unhappy. China has a policy to limit how many movies it can import in a year. Forget it, if you can’t offend China, can’t you deal with South Korea?
As soon as this Hollywood person started a relationship, the Korean government immediately surrendered. As a result, things went back and forth. At this time, Korean artists like Jiang Digui needed a lot of support. Japan's Kitano Takeshi and China's Zhang Yimou were all attracted.
object.
But Zhang Yimou was busy with China's Olympic bid at this time. He simply said that he would not take such a thing to heart, so they wanted to find someone to support them in such a good situation. Ye Ming
That's a good choice.
This at least reflects the attitude of the Chinese entertainment industry, and attitude is a very important issue.
Driving the American father back to Hollywood and becoming the master of his own country is a wish of those with lofty ideals in the Korean entertainment industry.
At this time, Takeshi Kitano strongly supported Ye Ming's "Infernal Affairs". One was that "Infernal Affairs" did have a reason to be supported. It was a good film and a pretty good film. Also, Takeshi Kitano also hoped that Ye Ming would be able to make "Infernal Affairs".
Ming owes a favor and asks Ye Ming to come forward to support the skinhead movement in South Korea. Jiang Digui and the others are not optimistic about their current situation.
Ye Ming hesitated for a moment. He did not agree immediately. This matter was too involved, and if he was not careful, he would cause considerable trouble to himself.
Finally, Ye Ming thought about it for a moment before saying: "The matter is actually not unsolvable, but Mr. Kitano, you also know that if I express my voice, it will definitely bring some trouble to myself. After all, Director Jiang Digui is facing
If the Korean government is not careful, it will be even more difficult for me to enter the Korean market in the future. It is easy to support it, but do I need to take risks?"
This was said very tactfully, but in reality, it means that Jiang Digui and I are not very familiar, and I am not even very familiar with you Kitano Takeshi, so I cannot easily take risks for you two.
At this time, Kitano Takeshi showed a relaxed look on his face. It would be best if Ye Ming could directly negotiate the conditions. Zhang Yimou didn't actually say that he was very busy. He was definitely busy with the Olympic bid, but Zhang Yimou was actually
Jiang Digui's request was directly rejected.
Because the relationship between the two people is not that good, Zhang Yimou does not need to deliberately care about Jiang Digui's feelings.
Lao Zhang has the status of a national teacher in China, so he naturally has his own confidence. He really doesn't care about the Korean market.
But Ye Ming is also so cunning, which makes Kitano Takeshi very surprised. In Kitano Takeshi's opinion, young people like Ye Ming should have the feeling of being young and energetic. When he heard about the bald head movement in South Korea, he should be so
Filled with righteous indignation, it is only right for the angry youth to side with the actors.
But seeing Ye Ming's expression, Kitano Takeshi felt a certain amount of fear towards Ye Ming while relaxing. Ye Ming was too cunning.
Therefore, Takeshi Kitano was not very happy at this time, but said in a serious tone: "It's great to be in China. Directors from your country still envy us. In fact, directors from both our countries envy you equally. In
Your country has very big restrictions when it comes to importing movies. For example, Terminator Part 2 has not entered the Chinese market at all. This is something we envy.
It's ridiculous that some of your directors are clamoring to say they envy us. This is definitely putting the cart before the horse. When Director Jiang Digui and I talked about this, we both unanimously envied your Chinese directors.
If Ye Sang comes to Korea, he will know that what I said is right.
Director Kang Di Kyu said, if Ye Sang you can support their bald head movement, then at this time, I guarantee that your future movies will not have any trouble with the Screen Actors Guild when they enter Korea.
Moreover, South Korea will give top-level support to the premiere of Infernal Affairs. Jiang Digui and several other leaders of the skinhead movement will go to the premiere to express their support for your movie. Think about it, this support is very
The big one.”
The result of this matter makes Ye Ming very satisfied. Jiang Digui and other leaders of the skinhead movement, those directors and big-name actors are still quite influential in Korea and can attract a large part of the audience.
I will go to the cinema to watch the movie Infernal Affairs. Therefore, Ye Ming is quite satisfied with this answer.
After thinking about it for a while, he finally nodded and said: "Well, okay, I will do my best on this matter. I will go to South Korea to see the situation and see how much support they need."
Although Ye Ming did not fully agree, it was already quite remarkable if it could be said to this extent. Therefore, Kitano Takeshi was also very happy at this time, and he was quite satisfied that things could progress to this point.
So, he bowed and said, "Then, I'll leave everything to Ye Sang."
After discussing this issue, Ye Ming said with some curiosity: "Mr. Kitano, there is one thing I don't understand. I hope you can clear up the doubts in my heart. The bald head movement in South Korea also has a certain connection with your country, right?
?”
Even if Kitano Takeshi had a good relationship with Jiang Digui, he couldn't commit such a crime to ask Ye Ming for support from Jiang Digui. Jiang Digui was not his son, so he couldn't commit such a crime.
Therefore, the only explanation at this time is that under such circumstances, the bald head movement led by Jiang Digui is inextricably linked to Takeshi Kitano, and even to the Japanese entertainment industry.
Kitano Wu immediately fell into deep thought for a while. Ye Ming's words could be said to have deeply hurt his heart.
At this time, Kitano Takeshi fell into a period of emotion, and finally struggled to crawl out of the painful memories, calmed down the anger in his heart, and then said: "This matter, if we talk about it,
If there is a certain connection, then there is nothing wrong with it. The current situation in Korea is just a copy of our Japanese entertainment industry. Some of the situations in our entertainment industry are worse than those in South Korea. However, the situation in our entertainment industry is worse than that in Korea.
People cannot unite, which makes me very sad.
Therefore, I want to see how far Director Kang Je-gyu can go in Korea, and then see if we in the Japanese entertainment industry can use this film quota. If we can, then for our domestic film market in Japan,
That's very helpful, and it's just a little bit of selfishness on my part.
During his lifetime, Kurosawa-kun always said that he wanted to get rid of the control of Hollywood capital and allow our Japanese film industry to have a place in the world film market. However, he died before the start, which made the hero burst into tears."
Japanese literature is inherited from Chinese culture. Therefore, when speaking these two lines of poetry, Takeshi Kitano did not feel any harshness at all, but rather he integrated his own infinite sadness into them.
This point allows Ye Ming to clearly feel that although the countries are different, and some positions are even different, Takeshi Kitano is not generally domineering on the set, but at a time like this, Ye Ming
We can clearly feel that from Kitano Takeshi's emotion, we can truly understand what kind of director he is, and he also feels that he is dedicated to the Japanese film industry.
No matter what, Kitano Takeshi has such a spirit, it is worthy of admiration.
Ye Ming said very decisively this time: "In this case, I wish Mr. Kitano all the best and all his wishes will come true as soon as possible."
This is a blow to Hollywood movies. In the Asia-Pacific region, at least Ye Ming thinks that this is a consensus for everyone. Regarding this kind of action, Ye Ming feels that if you can support it, it is a relatively good choice. (To be continued, please search Piao Piao. Astronomy and novels are better and updated faster!
