Chapter 642 rivalry
At the end of May, Tvn and JTBC almost officially announced their new TV drama production plans.
Written by director, famous screenwriter and industry veteran Huang Junyu, the new drama named “Cape Tongyi”. Based on the blockbuster unsolved case “Hwaseong Serial Murder Case” as a reference model. The tentative actors are Yoon Sang-hyun and Sung Dong-il, two senior actors who have debuted for more than ten years, and they have begun to recruit other young actors.
And JTBC is also not showing weakness.
“Counterattack! My Goddess” just ended the hit, screenwriter Li Mo collaborated with the transformation work “signal” and JTBC. Coincidentally, he also used the theme of ‘Hwaseong Serial Murder Case’, which quickly detonated the public’s interest in this unsolved case. Suddenly, a lot of information about this unsolved case appeared on the Internet, which made the Seoul Metropolitan Police Department very embarrassed these days. . After all, if the case cannot be solved, it shows their low ability.
But the entertainment industry is obviously not focusing on the unsolved cases, but the two cable TV stations of Tvn and JTBC, is it really good to use the same theme TV series to fight against each other? And there are rumors that Huang Junyu discussed this topic with Tvn first. Li Mo wanted to win the project, but was rejected by Tvn. In the end, Li Mo angrily turned to cooperate with JTBC, which is a vicious competition of Chiguoguo.
The gossip has a nose and eyes, and it is almost impossible to engrave a disrespectful and domineering image on Li Mo’s forehead.
The result of is that there is an endless stream of actors on the side of “Cape Tongyi” who went for interviews. On the side of “Signal”, JTBC contacted several actors with good acting skills, who were either rejected by the agency or rejected by themselves.
Who knows if Li Mo’s rumors of suppressing his predecessors are true? Li Mo himself is not afraid, it does not mean that they are not afraid. Huang Junyu wins because he has deep qualifications and extensive connections. Friends, students and colleagues are all over the film and TV circles. No one wants to offend such a senior.
This made Fang Dongmin, who wanted to have a big fight, hit the ground running!
“Writer Lee, you can’t go on like this. The cast is almost ready over there. We only have one female lead. If we can’t broadcast at the same time, our JTBC will become a joke in the industry.”
Li Mo said slowly, “It’s too late to quit now, it’s nothing more than a loss of face. The big deal is to throw all the blame on my head like Tvn, one is the back, and the other is the back, anyway, I’m a big wicked person. deal.”
Fang Dongmin smiled bitterly, “Writer Lee, don’t say such things. Since JTBC supports you, it’s impossible to give up.”
Although the situation is not good, the topicality is indeed hyped. Fang Dongmin is keenly aware that as long as the final ratings beat the opponent, all rumors will disappear.
This is a world where winners take all, no one will pity losers. Let’s see, as long as Li Mo’s works beat Huang Junyu, who would say that he suppressed his predecessors? Those people who were out of reach at that time were not complimenting their smiling faces.
Even if it fails in the end, JTBC has a backup plan. Just like what Li Mo said, just throw the blame on him.
Of course, this is a last resort.
Li Mo also noticed this, so he said it unabashedly.
However, the most important thing at the moment is to get the cast. If the TV series can’t be filmed by then, Li Mo will become a big joke.
“Ok, let’s talk about business.” Li Mo said slowly, “Minister Fang, what do you think of Huang Junyu?”
“What do you mean?” Fang Dongmin’s brain was obviously not as fast as Li Mo’s, and he jumped to Huang Junyu when he couldn’t figure out why.
Li Mo shook his head helplessly, “I mean, it’s true that Huang Junyu is a senior, but there will always be one or two enemies whose status is equivalent to him. I always don’t believe that guy will be a charismatic type, everyone is him friend.”
Fang Dongmin’s eyes lit up, and he slapped his thigh sharply, “Yes, this old boy was not a good thing when he was young, and there are many people who offend him. These seniors will definitely be happy to cause him some trouble.”
“That’s fine, you and the director will handle the actors, but the heroine must be Krystal, you know?”
Fang Dongmin nodded, “Nothing to say, Krystal is Writer Lee’s queen actor, that’s for sure. I haven’t read it on the Internet, some people say that the heroine of Writer Lee’s new drama must be Krystal again.”
“Is it so obvious?” Li Mo rubbed his chin.
Fang Dongmin said ambiguous, “Oh, it’s not a big problem. Many screenwriters have their own royal actors, but most screenwriters use female **** workers. Naturally, they are male gods like Lee Min Ho and Kim Soo Hyun. Writer Lee is a normal man. , the queen actor is naturally a goddess like Krystal.”
Li Mo shrugged, ignoring Fang Dongmin, a slut.
・・・
Fang Dongmin quickly contacted several seniors in the entertainment industry according to Li Mo’s suggestion. He didn’t directly say that he was going to cause trouble for Huang Junyu, but respectfully asked the seniors to lend a helping hand. Are there any promising junior actors to recommend? These seniors are all human beings, and naturally they can hear Fang Dongmin’s subtext.
First, he praised Fang Dongmin, and then said a few names casually, asking Fang Dongmin to contact him himself.
Then, Lee Je-hoon, who once won the Blue Dragon Award for New Actor, and Zhao Zhenxiong, the old actor who just won the Blue Dragon Award for Best Supporting Actor and Baeksang Arts Award for Best Actor in the Film category, announced their participation in JTBC’s new drama “signal”. This cast has already completed the next-door “Cape Tongyi”, which makes the netizens who pay attention to it screaming surprise!
“Dafa, if the heroine finds another actress, will they all win the acting awards next year?”
“Dreaming upstairs, I’m sure the heroine must be Krystal. Think about our crystal, what would it look like in a policewoman uniform? I can’t do it anymore, is there any comrade courier tissue coming over, the house has run out!”
“How can you go so far upstairs? Krystal is mine!”
“How can a bunch of stupid guys insult my goddess?”
“…”
Krystal because of “Counterattack! After the popularity of “My Goddess”, there are many more male fans. What makes people sore is that it seems that the Fx group she belongs to has more female fans than male fans, which is simply unimaginable.
However, with the support of Li Mo, he finally got rid of this embarrassing situation for female stars.
The disadvantage of is that it seems that the silly hat is unwilling to change Krystal’s image and wants to keep pushing her in the direction of the goddess. For example, taking the “She Is Cute to Me”, which Li Mo dismissed, is such an idea.
This is understandable, a stable screen image can make it easier for brokerage companies to profit. For example, taking advantage of the Krystal fire, Silly Hat launched a Krystal-based picture book, with more than 60% of the buyers being male, and sold 50,000 copies.
How could a profit-oriented agency be willing to let Krystal change his image, what is the joke?
So, without notifying Krystal, I pushed the audition invitation from JTBC.
