Life, Once Again!

“Technically, it's not an independent film. ”

“No, not necessarily. How can you be independent when you're so attached to your capital? They say it's different from the American market, but it's a long way from independence when it comes to the source. ”

Joon-min watched the two men who were speaking quietly. One is Park, distributor of 'The Act of Dusk', Bolt, and the other is Daerah Film, the parent company of the Seoul Central Theatre.

“Come on, let's stop talking about clichés and have a drink. The food here is really good. ”

When Joon-min called there, the door with the right window was opened to the side. I entered the steps like a butterfly, dressed in a hanbok, while performing a ceremony for a woman who was sitting in a somewhat modest posture.

“Let's put out a prize and suggest a drink. ”

“Got it. Flowers... ”

“I'll call you if I have to. ”

“Then I'll see the award. ”

The commander grabbed the hand of the woman who slowly lowered her head, covering her chest.

“Goodness. How old are you? ”

The woman with the sly eyes of Director Park replied with a bold smile.

“You ask a woman her age, that's too much. How many do I look like? ”

“Thirty-five? ”

“So many? ”

“Then thirty? ”

The woman covers her mouth and laughs low. Director Park has a smile on his face. She coughs and notices as soon as she sees him pulling on the woman.

“Director Park. ”

“Oh, yeah. ”

“The kids will be here any minute, so why don't you talk to them now?" It won't be fun, but we still need to talk. ”

Joon-min grabbed a glass of water and said. Director Park is not an idiot. He is a human being who illuminates women and provokes them, but he is not a fool who can't stand back and forth.

“Of course, of course. ”

Director Park is letting go. The woman walks away with a good ceremony, as if boasting a fine necklace. Joon-min lowered her head slightly with the intention of apologizing to the woman's eyes, looking through the closing door. The woman smiles lightly as if to ignore it.

“Director Park. You need to work on that habit. ”

Choi said with one eye wide open.

“Wouldn't a man have to taste a little awkward? You have to have some women, and you have to have a regular basis to make a man's excuses. In that regard, Director Choi is so gentle that he writes. Isn't that right, Representative? ”

Director Park said, Jun-min smiled silently. Director Choi and Director Park. We've known each other for a long time, so there's no sense in treating each other. It is because we are intimate in private that we can easily bring out things that should never be used in business.

“Director Park. Do you know what a woman is? ”

Choi said with a slight hint of fertility. Director Park's lips are a little forward.

“You're not a waitress? ”

“You don't know much about fairies since you only play golf, Deputy Park. Do you know where the woman you just arrested came from? ”

“Where are you from? ”

“Triangular.”

“The auditory hearing? Is that the auditory hearing? ”

Director Park looked at the door with surprised eyes.

“You're lucky to be with this representative now. If you were in the '70s, you'd be dragged into the back room. ”

Director Choi swung his fist lightly into the air. Director Park said with a shaky expression.

“But fairy politics is over for a long time. The old triangle would have been great, but now... ”

“Even though times have changed, the people who are connected are the same. Rumor has it that if she talks nonsense, a few current senators will change. ”

So far, Joon-min clapped and switched the atmosphere.

“That's all I have to say. We're here for politics. We're just here to enjoy some delicious food and talk some simple business. ”

Joon-min said that Director Choi and Director Park were right and nodded. Just when the door opened, the waitresses dressed in hanbok who were attached to their bodies came inside with food.

“Here, your nose and mouth will be magnificent, but your eyes will be magnificent before that. ”

Director Park smiles gladly at the incoming women. When the woman who placed the bowl next to Director Park smiled, Director Park couldn't wait for the bird to rub her thighs slightly again. Jun-min didn't even stop the action.

“Beautiful. What's your name? ”

“Call me later and I'll let you know. If I say anything else when I put the food down, my older sister will scold me. I need your help."

The women who were wandering around the room spreading a gentle scent slipped away. Joon takes a look at the neatly prepared food and holds the pottery kettle next to him.

“Let's have a drink first. ”

“Very well.”

“Very well.”

I poured in Director Park's glass after following Director Choi. It was Deputy Chief Choi who filled Jun-min's empty cup.

“It's liquor, sugar. ”

Director Park said in a good way.

I spent some time talking about Deputy Director Park's daughter. Director Choi smiled and boasted about his son.

“Are you sure this representative isn't married? ”

“I'm over fifty now. ”

“How about fifty in the world today, or sixty? Men are wealth and power, after all. Women are gangsters, but men don't age. With this level of talent and connections, there would be women lining up. ”

Park, who had a red cheek, said with a slight increase in spirits.

“Director Park, do we have a woman who's cold to Jules' eyes? The better the world is these days, the better off it is to be alone. I live for the taste of my son, not for the taste of my wife. It's better to do whatever you don't want to do than spend the last year getting scratched. ”

“Chief Choi is right. I want to go on a trip somewhere. I don't even think about going out of the house. When I go in the house, my mouth is full and I'm just preparing for a fight, but I can't live with myself. ”

Joon-min who was silently pouring his cup in a wacky atmosphere opened her mouth, considering that it was time.

“Now that you're a little full and you're drunk, can we talk about something? ”

That said, Director Park and Director Choi put down the glass. Correct the torn position and touch the tie you dragged in. It's probably unconscious to wear a tie.

“This is good to talk business with this representative. When I talk to other people, I can talk about what I switched over first, so I can get my appetite up, but once I talk to this representative, I can start eating and starting to feel good. So tell me, how are we going to move forward? ”

“The number of theaters, as I said earlier, will remain minimally captured. ”

“But it's too low, isn't it? ”

Director Park pulled up his glasses and said.

“Only 80 theater sites run in our bolts, and that's 600 screens. It's the number one distribution theater in South Korea. We've been thinking about this since we first discussed it, but for a cast like this, we've invested too much in it, and it's too low. I thought you were taking it to an independent movie, but it's a bit of an independent movie, isn't it? ”

“Director Park has a point. ”

Director Choi who was listening opened his mouth.

“Everyone knows that when you put a film on the Seoul Central Theatre, the surrounding theaters receive it. Seoul Theatre Street is said to be moving, but now the flow is mainstream, like Bolt's B Movie or SC Cinema. Everything from production to investment to distribution, all in one place. Maybe it's because our beloved film has no way of beating the multi-flex business by folding the film and turning the business around to the cultural icon. ”

“I'm sorry to hear we ruined the Seoul Central Theatre. ”

Director Park smiled and said. Director Choi also laughed loudly and received it.

“Even if you can put the film on the Central Theatre in Seoul and get the number of screenings, you also need more power on the Bolt side to spread the film across the country. He wore an independent film mask and did the same thing for publicity, but everyone knows that. It's a commercial film. Well, it's novel, but the name of the distributor in the capital will tell you what it's like. ”

“That's what I'm talking about, Deputy Chief Choi. I understand that because this is an art business, I want to battle with artistry and culture. It's a lot of money, though. Shouldn't we see more shows and more time to shop within a week? Shobu.”

I was Director Park who empowered the words Shobu.

“I want to see a battle with artistry. ”

Jun-min leaned to his side with an empty glass in his hand.

“I'm not that romantic. ”

“I know, I know. But I don't understand this. Three days after it opens, only each local art theater will be screening, so the audience is flooding. ”

Director Park's words were succeeded by Director Choi.

“The Seoul Central Theatre is also cross-showcased with two views, but it cannot handle an audience. Isn't this movie the comeback of actor Yoon Mun? Park Tae-ho is there too. By the way, have there been fewer than 5 million films starring Tae Ho Park lately? That's it, Yoon-hwa Jung, Kang Seung Yeom, Ahn Ju-hyun. And the floodwater who knows everyone. If it were any other movie, there would be almost year-round celebrities. I can't be excited about this movie. People are gathering, ticket sales are on fire, and there's just not enough theaters to go around, so the crowds aren't going up. ”

“I'm glad to hear that. ”

“Ms. Lee. Row when the water comes in, stop acting like an independent movie, and let's get aggressive. ”

“Yes, you should. ”

Joon-min said as if he had seen Director Choi and Director Park once.

“I'll tell you soon enough. to get more theaters. ”

“I think it's still too late. When.... ”

“When it becomes more public opinion, I'll solve it. ”

“Poll?”

I was the chief of staff who kept his mouth shut and thought about how much I felt with the curious Director Park. Joon-min poured an empty glass in front of the two of them.

“Often, it's less valuable. But if you can't put it in your hands at all, it's not valued. I told you not to increase the theater, to increase the value of this film. There's an article like this going on right now. Actors who escaped the commercial winds and went looking for real smoke. It would be absurd to distribute aggressively in the middle of a story like this and have our film on the front of the theater. ”

Joon-min said, intertwining his fingers.

“Word of mouth doesn't burn. It makes you burn. I can't tolerate a straight score. It's not just films. There's a business, too. Especially when it comes to culture, the timing doesn't change depending on who's doing it. There is still a limit to the number of spectators that a monster distributor generates across an entire theater. In the near 90 percent of multi-flex cinemas run by distributors in the future, there will come a time when distribution alone can determine the complete defeat of a movie, but not now. because the audience still has the right to choose and see. ”

Joon-min shrugged his mouth and raised his cup. Director Choi and Director Park nodded and raised the glass to the top of their head.

“Wait a little longer. People who think they have to consume this culture to become more sophisticated will definitely have a louder voice. ”

There was a cheerful nagging.

"Well, this representative's predictions are never wrong."

"We'll trust you."

Looking at Director Park and Chief Choi, Joon-min smiled silently.
