Chapter 339 Under the Higher Roof (Part 2)
As soon as this question was asked, Yu Bingyu, who was standing beside him, breathing became heavy, and the aunt became obviously a little embarrassed, and even touched her nose awkwardly... But Jin Zhongming still remained calm and sat firmly as a mountain.
To be honest, this is not a question of quality, but a matter of professionalism.
By the way, many people don’t know what’s going on. They always feel that big people are different from ordinary people in conversation or behavior. But in fact, this idea is like some fans who always feel that their idols are pure and flawless and do not go to the bathroom, which is pure wishful thinking. But the facts prove that those idols will hiccup and fart, take off their makeup and sleep for half a night, and then sleep for an hour to ensure that they can’t see anyone in the same dormitory as you.
Correspondingly, the so-called big men are naturally the same. They are also humans. They will be happy when they make a profit suddenly. They will be unhappy when things go well. They will hold grudges when they are slapped in the face, and they will naturally be embarrassed after being asked in person... The so-called demeanor of famous scholars in the Wei and Jin Dynasties is not that they cannot exist in this era, but you must be mentally prepared to be regarded as a mental illness.
As for why Kim Jong-ming didn't change his face... Thank you, this question was asked by him, so he was prepared for it, and he is also an actor, professional, that's all.
"This question is really difficult to answer." The aunt was stunned for a while, then she forced a laugh. "It was called self-deception. The scene was indeed quite awkward. But how to say it? Everything has passed, and sitting in the office where my father sat in the past, I felt that the angle and height of the question were different. So, if you have to want an answer, then I mean, as an individual, I am still a little emotional, but as the president, I wouldn't have to use it for private purposes... for those small things."
"You are clearly distinguished between public and private, which is really admirable." Kim Jong-ming nodded seriously. "And I can almost imagine that from today on, the identity of president will occupy an overwhelming proportion in your life..."
"This is natural." The aunt nodded slightly proudly. "Always put state affairs first."
"So that's the case." Kim Jong-ming smiled. "Please allow me to defend that matter as a film practitioner. We must also ask you to listen to my opinion on the overly satirized current affairs of Korean movies..."
Aunt Park raised her eyebrows slightly. To be honest, she couldn't keep up with the other party's rhythm again. At first, she thought the other party asked that question to force her to express her opinion on Kim Shi-kun as soon as possible, and then she felt that the other party might be really testing her attitude towards him... So in response, she gave such an answer that was both comforting and leaving room for nothing.
But at this rhythm in front of you, this young man seemed to want to talk about something serious?
Of course, if you talk about serious business, then Kim Jong-ming is really qualified to discuss the current film industry with her face to face. She herself also wants to talk to Kim Jong-ming about this issue... It is not a good phenomenon to always satirize the government unconditionally, right? So, although she was still waiting for the answer, Aunt Park had no intention of refusing, and she immediately realized something, that is, the other party could not be aimless. In this statement, there is a solution to this bad thing today.
Of course, it is the solution of Kim Jong-ming's version.
"You said." After several twists in my heart, the aunt finally became serious.
"In fact, there have been detailed and exciting discussions on the relationship between literary and artistic works and politics in all historical periods around the world." Kim Jong-ming also put on a serious attitude. "If you have to summarize, it is destined to be opposite, but you are always in a fundamental way! This logic is like this. At the beginning, when political forces do not have an absolute advantage, literary and artistic works are natural weapons of politics. Many politics will express their views through literary and artistic works and attack their political opponents. Politics itself is an important part of literary and artistic works..."
Aunt Park nodded in agreement. In fact, Korean politics has been attacked the most by literary works, but it is also the one who comes from behind to use this thing. It is precisely this aunt herself... When she participated in politics in the early days, the leftists and the Duck-boiled people who controlled the literary and artistic circles were ruthless, and all kinds of literary works that satirize her father were endless. The most famous one is naturally "The Barber of the Filial Son-Dong".
As the saying goes, one learns from one’s mistakes, but later this person gradually gains a foothold and begins to follow suit, and his methods are obviously going to the next level.
The TV series "Big Things" is such an excellent battle example. It is a serious and well-made TV series, without explicit flattery, and it is unremarkable to implant the concept of a female president into people's hearts. It is wonderful!
Of course, the most outstanding one is "The Furnace"... In fact, whether it is a novel or a movie, it is supported by the aunt, otherwise it would be impossible to write it out and shoot it. The purpose is naturally to deal with the so-called Gwangju judicial faction who was particularly strong in the Korean politics at that time. Among them, there is Qiu Mia's main opponent in the parliament, and there is also Prime Minister Kim Won-sik who had a good reputation at the time.
There is no need to say much about what happened later, and not to mention how outstanding the novels and movies are, the people from Gwangju dared not say a word and could only slap themselves in the face. What is even more admirable is that before the chilling reality and shocking literary and artistic renderings, most people did not notice her existence, and it was really a murderous person!
It is these experiences that make Aunt Park pay special attention to these things.
"But..." Kim Jong-ming continued. "After a certain political force grasps the regime, it will almost instinctively want to strictly restrict the literary and artistic works they have used before. On the one hand, it wants to continue to control this weapon, and on the other hand, it wants to use its own political advantages to strictly limit it and not use it for its opponents... This is almost the mentality that the ruler has instinctively."
The aunt couldn't help laughing: "It seems that she is really such a mentality, simple and direct, and can't be refuted...you continue."
"Then, the next thing can't be simpler." Kim Jong-ming laughed. "Politics thinks it has the ability to restrain literary and artistic works, but the ruling people forgot that literary and artistic works themselves are very likely to develop self-awareness. After political struggles, literary and artistic workers can easily have an illusion that literary and artistic works are qualified to interfere in politics."
The aunt laughed again.
"In this way, both sides think that they can interfere with each other, but I won't show off my skills from the perspective of the ruling party. I think you have your own experience. But when you return to the perspective of literary and artistic works, you think you have the ability to influence politics, but you will immediately encounter pressure and restraint from politics. Then it will soon produce a sense of mission that belongs to itself and is universal..."
“What kind of mission is it?”
"To quote a sentence from the Nobel Prize winner in Literature, of course, he is talking about literature, but it is okay to expand to all literary works... Literature must interfere in politics until politics no longer interferes in literature."
"Is this the original words?" The aunt was slightly stunned, and her expression gradually became serious.
"Original words."
"So, as you say, literary and artistic workers and ruling people will have a natural opposition?" The aunt suddenly pulled down her face and asked seriously. "There is no exception?"
"Antagonism is inevitable." Kim Jong-ming sighed slightly. "In fact, under the rule of the right-wing government, the positions of literary and artistic workers are generally left-leaning, while under the rule of the left-wing government, the positions of literary and artistic workers are generally right-leaning... It's not that they are fickle, but that they always oppose the rulers and then have reaction forces to fight against each other! This kind of opposition cannot even be avoided by feudal society, let alone such a developed information society now?"
The aunt's expression became more and more gloomy. It was obvious that on the one hand, she accepted this very logical statement, but from her new position, she was inevitably dissatisfied with it. On the other hand, Kim Jong-ming kept saying that she wanted to defend herself, but came to such a conclusion, which really made people doubt whether the other party wanted to continue to "oppose" her like this.
"Do you say that you are making this kind of defense because I hope I can understand your 'opposition' position?" The aunt finally asked directly. "Not only will there be "Horror Live" before, but there will be more such movies in the future?"
"Yes, not." Kim Jong-ming remained calm, as if he didn't care about the anger of a president. "The reason is this, but have you ever thought about it? I'm talking about all literary and artistic workers and all literary and artistic works. In this era, news websites, forums, social networks, self-media, paper media, television stations, radio stations... Of course, there are movies, all kinds of things, as long as they have the function of social comments, they will be infected with the characteristics I just mentioned, but no matter how authoritative a ruling person is, it cannot control all of these things! And this is also an important reason why once the ruling person starts to rule, his evaluation will always go down unconditionally... The media industry in this era is too developed, and movies are just an insignificant part of it."
The aunt fell silent again... because she knew that the other party's words made sense. Times have changed. In the past, there were only literature, then newspapers, and then movies. Now it is the Internet. The self-resistance consciousness of literary works is almost integrated into all the media industry. Movies are really just a small part.
"What do you want to say?" After a while of a pause, the aunt asked helplessly. To be honest, the good mood that had just ascended the throne today was actually half disturbed by the young man in front of her.
"What I really want to say is that movies are actually very gentle than other more direct and lethal media forms," Kim Jong-ming replied calmly. "Because all viewers understand that it is virtual, artistically exaggerated, and they will be unconsciously attracted to other things such as plots and actors... So when a ruler really encounters a crisis of trust, instead of letting the news media come up and make a fortune, or letting self-media and social networks spread rumors, it is better to let movies, TV series, variety shows act as a flood discharge area. At least it can allow the people to vent without touching the problem itself."
"I understand your logic." The aunt sighed slightly. "What you mean is that although the cultural and media circles are no longer different from each other, you suggest that I treat the two differently, strictly control the news and media, and then relax a little to the cultural circle. For... Anyway, I have to put less pressure on you, right?"
"I can only say that you are wise again." Jin Zhongming laughed a little embarrassedly.
"Although there is obviously someone's selfishness here, I have to admit that what you said makes sense." The aunt smiled slightly.
Kim Jong-ming seemed to breathe a sigh of relief too.
"But..." The aunt suddenly changed her mind. "Why can't I strictly control it together?"
Kim Jong-ming immediately took away his smile.
"I'm the president, right?"
"Yes." Kim Jong-ming answered honestly.
"You asked Secretary An Zhongfan to tell me what he said on your behalf, saying that the president shouldn't have apologized to the terrorists, right?"
"Yes." Jin Zhongming's Adam's apple moved obviously, which made the aunt on the opposite side smile.
"And this is your point of view?"
"That's right."
"Then I'll tell you now that your advice makes sense, but I have the power to restrain everything as president, and I'm going to do what... like my father, what do you think?"
"I'll cooperate." Jin Zhongming nodded without blinking his eyelids, which made the other party very satisfied.
"How do you cooperate?"
"I will exert my influence and try to make it less hostile in the film industry. At the same time, I have also prepared a positive energy movie about expatriates... When will you have a trip to Europe? I can arrange the date of the movie to be released appropriately."
The aunt was unable to keep up with the rhythm again... She had never known that she was not a person with a very quick mind, but this confused feeling still made her a little confused.
"You have prepared a positive energy movie? Can you cooperate with my visit?" the aunt asked in a daze. "Then do you want me to be more relaxed in the literary and artistic circles?"
"What I mean is that if the ruler encounters a crisis of trust, he should treat news media and literary and entertainment products differently." Kim Jong-ming slightly repeated his previous view. "But now, when a ruler's people's popularity is at its highest, the news media will behave with their tails, let alone those of us who make movies?"
The aunt immediately burst into laughter and became more satisfied.
Although Kim Jong-ming, who was sitting opposite her, was smiling slightly, couldn't help but sigh in his heart... In fact, that movie was fine, but if you said the good words before, you wouldn't tell me the truth. At least from his perspective, he had a clear conscience, which could be regarded as repaying the kindness of cooperation between the two sides in the past one or two years.
As for the other party's state of being anesthetized by the drugs of power at this time, he was prepared for it, that's all.
"That's the case." The aunt continued to laugh. "The story of "Horror Live" ended here. I've long forgotten it. I'm looking forward to your new movie...and what?"
"Then the matter is very simple." Kim Jong-ming laughed as if he suddenly came to his senses, and glanced at Yu Bingyu who had been standing next to him and listened in a deep sense. "We don't need to get involved. Chief Yu, the President has... expressed his opinion! It's your turn!"
"Yes!" Yu Bingwoo seemed to have just come back to his senses. "President, in fact, there is a perfect solution for Master Kim Shi-jun. Look, after listening to Mr. Kim Jong-ming's introduction, I realized that the role of news and media is so important. If that's the case, the KBS must be strictly controlled, but Master Kim was injured again. It would be better... It's better to arrange a specialist in the secretariat for KBS to be responsible for feedback on KBS's work, which can be regarded as assisting Master Kim Shi-jun's work. What do you think?"
This is going to undermine Jin Shijun... Once these people who play politics start to make a scheming, they will be more ill-hearted than the other, and they will be full of tricks.
"Very good." The aunt nodded repeatedly. "Just do it like this, a good way. I'll consider the candidates for a little bit. You can explain to Master Jin Shijun first, so he can save himself from thinking about it. By the way, tell him that if Zhiyuan likes to play, please let him go, don't interfere..."
"yes!"
"What about this case today?" the aunt continued to ask. "There won't be a problem, right?"
"No!" Yu Bingyu shook his head repeatedly. "You don't need to worry, leave everything to me, and there will be no problems."
"That's good, you can do it, don't let Zhong Ming suffer grievances, but you should also give Director Jin an explanation." The aunt was not stupid enough to ask the other party how to solve it. For her, this matter was over. As a person with huge energy and power, as long as he expresses his attitude, his subordinates will naturally clean up the matter.
Kim Jong-ming immediately stood up with some excitement, as if he was about to leave with Yu Bingyu.
"Zhong Ming then sat down." Aunt Park, whose eyes were still shiny, suddenly stopped him. "I still have someone to see you, and I have something to talk about. Since you are here, listen!"
Jin Zhongming didn't understand his intention, but he still sat back calmly, but he immediately understood what was going on.
"Secretary Yu." The aunt suddenly called Yu Bingyu who had already walked to the door. "Before leaving, I went to the next door and called President Li Jae-hyun to help me... He has been waiting for several hours!"
"Yes!" Yu Bingyu's heart was also trembling.
In less than a minute, Lee Jae-hyun, with her hair messy and red eyes, came to the aunt's presidential office. With the aunt's wave, Yu Bingyu immediately left and went to deal with the case that was still very "tough" before.
Kim Jong-ming, who was sitting on the chair, looked back at Lee Jae-hyun. The other party stared at Kim Jong-ming for a few seconds, but laughed like a self-deprecatingly, and then walked slowly to the desk.
"President Li..." the aunt asked with a smile. "How are you thinking about it?"
Lee Jae-hyun sighed, as if he had made up some decision... At this moment, Kim Jong-ming suddenly stood up.
"What?" The aunt was puzzled, and Li Jae-hyun looked at him in discomfort.
"President Park." Kim Jong-ming took a deep breath. "I am a junior, and President Lee Jae-hyun is a senior. There is no reason to put a chair here. I sit and he stands...Do you think so?"
The other two people in the room were stunned for a moment. Lee Jae-hyun looked at Kim Jong-ming with a complicated and thoughtful look, but the aunt laughed again.
"Come in with another chair." After laughing, the new female president shook her head, but still picked up the phone number at hand.
Five or six minutes later, Yu Bingyu, who was unaware of this place, ran back to the secretariat building a mile away, panting again, which was also difficult for him.
When he pushed open the door of the conference room, many people's eyes immediately lit up... From the party involved, Kim Shi-jun, who had been back a long time, to the bystanders, to the prosecutors and secretaries, everyone had been waiting for too long.
However, no one spoke up.
"Secretary Yu, what about Zhong Ming, why didn't you come back with you?" Yin Zhiyuan stood up helplessly after pushing his arm in Krystal and asked, but he looked like he was not worried about anything.
"Mr. Kim Jong-ming is discussing the future support policies of the literary and artistic circles with the President." Yu Bing-woo, who was panting, quickly replied. "The President is afraid that you will wait for a long time, so he asked me to come back first..."
"Then!" Jin Shijun immediately interrupted the other party sensitively regardless of the stiff wound on his face.
"Master Jin wait a moment." Yu Bingyu interrupted the other party in turn. "I have something to verify first. President Zheng Yunhao, come out with me!"
Zheng Yunhao naturally followed him happily.
The people in the room understood that things had to come to a conclusion... Some people were uneasy, some were thinking, some were in a complicated mood, and of course some were happy and seemed to have foreseeed something.
But there is no need to wait any longer. In just two minutes, things came to an end, because Zheng Yunhao, who is a former baseball player and the boss of a good cosmetics company, quickly returned with a dead father look.
He also found the Prosecutor Xiao Li who was in charge of the case: "Mr. Prosecutor, I want to surrender!"
There was silence in the conference room.
"What did you say?" Prosecutor Xiao Li was also a little confused. "What do Mr. Zheng Yunhao want to do?"
"I said I want to surrender!" Zheng Yunhao replied with a look of indifference. "Don't you understand? I didn't like this bastard Jin Shijun, so I beat him up before! But this is the Blue House, and I was too reckless, so I have to surrender!"
Chapter completed!
