Chapter 239 The Empty Coronation Ceremony (1)
Of course, Kim Jong-ming didn't have to talk anymore, because the brothers who were Li Jae-hyun's closest brothers almost handed over the CJ's entertainment industry to him. Even though he was ready-made, it was enough for him to give two or three percent of the part as a reward. In this regard, it was completely acceptable to send 20 or 30 percent of the part as a reward, and he still made a big profit on his own.
Of course, to be honest, compared to the continuous appeal and suggestion of Li Jae-bin from the beginning, Li Mei-jing's active surrender really surprised Kim Jong-ming... Well, but soon he completely accepted it. The reason for this is not only because the other party's special identity and huge role, but more importantly, although the other party's surrender seemed abrupt, it was reasonable.
First of all, like Li Zaibin, Li Meijing's foundation is also in the most shaky part of CJ, which is m. So, from a personal perspective, she actually has sufficient personal interests like Li Zaibin, and chooses to hold her foundation to survive this "CJ shipwreck".
Secondly, Lee Mei-jing claimed that he had received the hint from his father on his sickbed, and Kim Jong-ming actually believed it. What is a chaebol? What is a big family? This is the style of a chaebol and a family. It doesn’t matter if the ship sinks, the family will disperse and each will save the share of the company to survive. That is a reasonable way. Therefore, even if Sun Jingzhi is indeed trustworthy, letting his daughter hide in the opposite camp and survive is not necessarily a good move! After all, it is always good to provide a layer of insurance for the interests of the family.
Then there is no need to say more about what happened next. The two countries fought and a city was in danger. The defenders sent a marshal and a vanguard to rescue him. As a result, the two led their troops to surrender that day... Then there was no need to fight this battle at all.
The fact is that on the morning of the next day, Kim Jong-ming asked Li Mei-kyung to take his package of cultural industries such as TVN, CGV theaters, M, and CJ Films to return to CJ, and the entire CJ executive collapsed. Although he didn't know what President Lee Jae-hyun thought about it, he made a decision quickly.
In the morning, he only spent a whole morning making a decision and then directly chose to sign. In other words, only some necessary official procedures and time were needed, then all of this would be replaced with a new owner.
Well, of course, President Li asked his own sister and cousin to get out of CJ that day, which does not require any process.
As for President Li, who has obtained a huge sum of money from selling the industry, should he continue to support Ren Taixi with red eyes or continue to argue with Samsung, it is nothing to do with others!
At least, it's nothing to do with Kim Jong-ming.
In fact, just one night after another, on Wednesday, April 25, Kim Jong-ming focused on a new thing. The new Baeksang Art Awards opened. This time was not only the last opportunity for the "Furrow" that had almost nothing before, but also a good opportunity for the "Introduction to Architecture" that has not yet been offline. He had no reason not to pay enough attention.
From the perspective of others, this is Kim Jong-ming's first public appearance after this big deal that overturned the entertainment industry structure, and they also took some extra complex attitude towards it.
The reason why it is complicated is that this attitude is mixed with completely understandable emotions such as curiosity, anxiety, expectation, fear, etc.
Among them, curiosity is an initial emotion.
After all, even after the purchase of Mijia Cinema, it has only been one month so far. Kim Jong-ming's action can be called a sudden outbreak. But he succeeded. The seemingly powerful CJ was almost unable to resist. In a blink of an eye, this young man controlled more than half of the theater chains in South Korea and three percent of the film production units... Not to mention anything else, at least in the Korean film circle, he is already an unprecedented crocodile.
Then, facing the impact of this information, out of instinct, no matter who it is, people can't wait to see Kim Jong-ming, or hear some words from him... they may not have any special purpose, they may just simply want to see him.
This is the most common emotion, reasonable and everyone has it, and most people's emotions stop there.
After this emotion, it is naturally uneasy, because there are always some people who are smarter, more vigilant, or are already in a sensitive position in the industry, which makes them have to feel shocked and think about the change in the entire industry.
And continue to go down, as this further thinking, expectation and fear appear in the form of branches.
What are you looking forward to? Of course, you are looking forward to change, and you are looking forward to the new game rulemakers that can bring a more powerful rule for themselves.
The same is true for fear. Of course, it is because of the fear that Kim Jong-ming's sudden appearance will damage his own interests.
It's reasonable, that's all.
So let's go back to the topic. This Baixiang Art Award is actually the 48th. Referring to the lifespan of this country, this number can actually prove one thing from the side, that is, the importance and authority of this annual award are still reliable. Perhaps in some surveys and netizens' complaints, the so-called three awards are often despised by everyone because of the unevenness of the cake or too deliberately. Even Baixiang is at a disadvantage because of the TV awards, but no one can deny that this award always has its own special status in this country.
Otherwise, is there a better choice?
No matter what, there are many people coming to this Baeksang Art Awards.
Among them, Kim Jong-ming came with Chu Long... To be honest, this made Kim Tae-hee a little tricked, because Kim Soo-hyun came with Ji Yeon. Of course, she didn't understand it. After all, the relationship between the two was also there, so she naturally knew it.
However, what Kim Tae-hee didn't know was that even if Chu Long didn't come, she wouldn't be able to partner with him on the red carpet with him, because Kim Jong-ming originally wanted to take Ermao with him, but Jung Ermao felt that what he had forgotten that night was a personality insult, so he swears to carry his arrogance to the end, but he didn't agree, so he forced his brother to turn around and bring Chu Long with him. If Chu Long was also busy, then Kim Jong-ming would not be ready to bring people, because... this time, there were a lot of awards shortlisted for his two movies and other film and television dramas. If Ermao and Chu Long didn't come, then he wouldn't have to make it more high-profile. The so-called "to go into the village quietly and shoot a gun" is probably the king.
Why do you say that, just look at the shortlist.
Among them, the five most important best movie candidates: "Broken Arrow", "War with Crime: The Heyday of the Bad Guy", "Sunny", "Fighting Young Man Yuan Deok", "Introduction to Architecture"... Well, there are three movies in this one produced by Cube, that is, "The Heyday of the Bad Guy" produced by Shobo, but that was also starring Choi Min-sik. As for "Sunny", what do you say? It has nothing to do with Kim Jong-ming, but everyone knows that from yesterday, does not CJ Pictures already belong to him? So no matter what, it cannot be said that it is not a movie under his command.
These are five, and four.
The five candidates for the best director are not that evil. After all, this kind of award is more important to individuals, and then they think of movies and finally they will talk about the production company. The five candidates are:
Zheng Zhiyong, director of "Broken Arrow";
Yoon Jong Bin, director of "The Heyday of the Bad Guys";
"Fighting Boy" director Li Han;
"Train" director Kim Young-joo;
Another natural thing is Kim Jong-ming, who was selected for "Introduction to Architecture".
However, the next five candidates for the best actors are a bit of a tiger:
Ann Shengji's "Broken Arrow";
Song Kanghao's "Defense Attorney";
Choi Min-sik's "The Heyday of the Bad Guys";
Kim Jong-ming's "The Furnace";
Kim Jong-ming's "Introduction to Architecture".
To be honest, Baoyuan is a perfect match! No matter what, this actor is a cube! And who dares not accept this list? Which movie and which actor is not qualified to appear here?
As for the best actress and best new director, it may not be related, but among the best newcomers below, Kim Soo-hyun and Ji-yeon were both selected, and even the best screenwriter was Lee Yong-joo. Moreover, these three are really typical popular candidates for the hit screening of "Introduction to Architecture".
Of course, the small screen may seem shabby, but even so, almost every award is involved in "The Moon Embracing the Sun" and is a strong competitor.
It is worth mentioning that the only one who may be cheated by Kim Jong-ming is probably Kim Soo-hyun Kim. You know, this guy appeared late in this TV series, and Kim Jong-ming later adjusted the release time of the TV series, so he didn't appear for a few episodes when the candidate list was announced... Well, Kim Jong-ming seemed to have missed a TV emperor but was still grateful for Kim Jong-ming's support.
Anyway, in this case, coupled with the big acquisition just completed, Kim Jong-ming really wants to keep a low profile. However, facts have proved that in this case, it is difficult for you to keep a low profile!
It was fine when walking the red carpet. Jin Zhongming had already greeted the organizer, so the arrangements for the front and rear were very compact. After standing in the photography area for a few seconds, he naturally took Chu Long's hand and walked into the venue.
But as soon as he entered the Olympic Park City Hall where the award ceremony was located, he stood at the entrance, and Jin Zhongming felt a little sad because he found that there were a lot of people coming today!
To be honest, it is understandable that many male and female actors who are not shortlisted appear on the scene. After all, everyone is an artist, so they are completely useless to show their faces. But in addition, there are also a large number of agency bosses, film and television drama producers, various association managers, etc., which is a bit helpless... Even after a glance, Kim Jong-ming actually saw Bong Joon-ho, Lee Cang-dong, Choi Dong-hoon, and Park Chan-woo in a corner at the same time!
Those who know this situation understand that this is the Baixiang Art Award, and those who don’t know think it is the elected Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism!
"oppa!" At this moment, Chu Long suddenly tightened the hands of the people around him.
"What's wrong?" Jin Zhongming came to his senses. He had been looking at the entrance for too long, and the people around him were also looking at him instinctively and carefully.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little nervous." Chu Long smiled slightly. "It's the first time I've been to such an occasion, and it's the first time I've worn this kind of dress..."
Even though Jin Zhongming was thinking, he couldn't help laughing at this moment. Chu Long's white shoulder-slipping dress was spent today, but he took a lot of talk to persuade the other party to wear it. Don't pinch it for a long time along the way. Of course, he also understood that in fact, the girl had already adjusted when she came to the red carpet, and the other party should be helping him relieve his emotions.
"Safe." Kim Jong-ming walked forward slowly while holding the other person, smiling and comforting. "I don't mean to be nervous or uneasy. Actually, I expected this scene... I just didn't expect the other side to be too smooth. This kind of attention actually collided with the Baixiang Awards. Actually... it doesn't matter."
Chu Long blinked and said nothing more. By the way, although she was also scared by today's scene, she believed that Jin Zhongming, who had recovered from Qingming, had the ability and confidence to deal with all this.
But... although the award ceremony has not yet begun, even though Kim Jong-ming has just appeared, some uneasy rumors about him have immediately emerged and spread quickly.
For example, today's two candidates for actress Kim Min-hee and Son Ye-jin are now sitting at a table in the front row whispering.
"Who is Kim Jong-ming's girlfriend?" Kim Min asked Son Ye-jin curiously. "Isn't it a rumor that 'Jiang's angry and angry for the beauty' a while ago? I really thought it was someone in Tara. As a result, I had a scandal with Kwon Yuri yesterday, but today I brought another girl I didn't know... You should be more familiar with him, do you know what's going on?"
"What can happen?" Sun Ye-jin replied with a dark face. "Big boss, rich people are young, so show mercy everywhere!"
"Really or not?" Jin Minxi was surprised. "He has a good reputation in this circle. I always thought he was just hiding his real girlfriend..."
"That's just meddling in other people's business!" Maybe it was because he felt that the rumors were a bit unbearable, and Son Ye-jin suddenly corrected his statement. "Tara is meddling in other people's business, Yuri is meddling in other people's business. Actually, I know this girl... The female team leader of the cube company is about to return to collide with Girls' Generation. I guess he wanted to help, so he took the other person out for a walk... In fact, he was also meddling in other people's business."
"Isn't it good to meddle in other people's business?" Before Kim Min-hee could speak, another candidate for actress Yan Zhenghua, who had just arrived, suddenly said something. "Anyway, are you helping? I have always had a good impression of him. I feel that he is very kind to the disadvantaged group and is happy to help."
"But... Sister Zhenghua." Sun Ye-jin paused for a moment and immediately refuted the past instinctively. By the way, she was really angry with Kim Jong-ming now. "Have you noticed that the object of his nostalgia is not distinguished by the vulnerable or not. After all, it is still based on the personal relationship with him... Only those who are familiar with will help and meddle in other people's business. Isn't this an alternative person who follows me and who will prosper and defy me? Look, the same is true for today's Baeksang Art Awards!"
Yan Zhenghua was slightly stunned. She was indeed a little bit said by the other party... because she actually had great expectations for today's Best Actress, and she is currently in the leading position in terms of qualifications and reputation. However, she was also a little uneasy because her movie "The Dance" was a small company, which seemed extremely unfavorable in the competition for awards. Especially when Shen Enjing of "Sunny", this is a hot work of CJ. Will Kim Jong-ming use this to comfort the CJ Pictures that he just acquired? And she is also a contracted artist under SBS. If she really faces that situation, she may have to break her teeth and swallow it in her stomach?
The so-called care is chaos. Sun Yezhen said casually with a lot of personal resentment. She immediately forgot what she said, but the complicated actresses around her couldn't help but worry about gains and losses, especially some people with interest tonight, most of them became uneasy like Yan Zhenghua.
Coincidentally, Kim Jong-ming, who just found a seat, was indeed talking about Yan Zhenghua, but his focus was not what those talkative actresses thought.
"Actually, the performance really depends on talent and spirituality." Jin Zhongming sighed to Chu Long. "Ermao is still careless, but I feel that Damao basically has nothing to watch..."
"Is it so difficult for idols to act well?" Chu Long asked curiously.
"That's not what it means." Kim Jong-ming shook his head repeatedly. "In fact, singing is the same, it also requires talent. In fact, the two are independent of each other. Whether singing is good or not has nothing to do with acting, and whether acting is good or not has nothing to do with singing... Of course, the premise of all this is to be equally diligent and the same scientific training."
"I understand." Chu Long suddenly reacted. "The reason why there is an illusion that acting is more difficult than singing is that people who sing well often go to act, and then many fail, but people who act well don't need to sing, so there is no counterexample..."
"That's what it means."
"Then... are there two kinds of talent that are particularly good?" Chu Long asked with interest. "They are all very high-end ones, not the kind you said in the 'sloppy'."
"I remember there was one at the scene today." Kim Jong-ming looked around, but he couldn't find anyone for a while but had to give up. "You famous singers and actors from North Chungcheong Domain, Senior Yan Zhenghua..."
"Oh!" Chu Long woke up as if he was dreaming. "Yes! Senior Yan Zhenghua not only acted very well, but also was the top singer. I really like her "Entertainment"..."
"I like it very much, too." Jin Zhongming stared at Chu Long with a smile. "The first cheongsam temptation... isn't it?"
At this moment, An Shengji and Song Kanghao walked over while chatting, so Chu Long wisely closed his mouth and just blinked at the other party again.
ps: Sorry... Kavenka was so deadly yesterday, and his ideas were clear. I tried to make another chapter to compensate in the evening.
Chapter completed!
