I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor - Chapter 369
I Was Mistaken as a Monstrous Genius Actor Chapter 369
Piggy-haired Choi Seong-geon, who blinked his eyes wide, was speechless for a moment. That was about 5 seconds. After barely coming to his senses, he asked the overseas part team leader.
“Where?”
The team leader with a serious face answered right away.
“This is ‘World Disney Pictures.’”
“…surely ‘World Disney Pictures’?? “Isn’t it Digini or Dijuni?”
“No, it’s ‘World Disney Pictures.’”
“You sent the scenario there?”
“Yes, CEO.”
‘World Disney Pictures’? At that moment, numerous movie animations flashed through Choi Seong-gun’s mind. his past. No, I had a lot of memories of ‘World Disney Pictures’. It was probably the same for many people around the world. Because it was ‘World Disney Pictures’ that presented fairy tales and childhood innocence to people.
That’s why ‘World Disney Pictures’ is a film company that exerts enormous influence in Hollywood.
Although it was called one of the Big Five film studios like ‘Columbia Studios’ in ‘Cierrot,’ it also had the largest number of fans around the world.
What about the powerful characters they have?
Even decades later, the best characters are sold well and are popular everywhere in the world, including Korea and Japan. It was safe to say that there was no one who did not know about ‘World Disney Pictures.’
‘Disney sent the scenario to Woojin??!’
It is said that a love call was sent to Kang Woo-jin from such a place. It was natural for Choi Seong-geon to be excited or frantic. Because this was also a first. After Cannes, two of Hollywood’s five largest film companies sent love calls to Woojin.
“Has there ever been… something like this?”
When Choi Seong-geon, who seemed to be possessed, recited something, the team leader responded in a similar tone.
“No…at least it’s the first time I remember.”
“me too. “There has never been a similar case, let alone to this extent.”
“Until now, ‘World Disney Pictures’ has never shown interest in a Korean actor.”
“yes. “Woojin is unique in Korean history.”
The ‘Columbia Studios’ issue alone is an issue that will turn the country upside down, but in addition, ‘World Disney Pictures’ is also involved. It was clear that this would not end in a reversal. Whether Kang Woo-jin does two works or not. He also received love calls from two of Hollywood’s ‘Big Five’ film companies.
“Kkkkkkkk If you are with Woojin, things that were farther than a dream become reality.”
It is obvious that Woojin’s aura as an actor will soar.
“I’m looking forward to next year like crazy.”
Choi Seong-geon, with a smile on his face, imagined a future that would expand into the world in connection with Kang Woo-jin. Then, he focused his gaze on the team leader in front of him and gave instructions as the representative.
“Okay, first of all, please organize ‘World Disney Pictures’ and ‘Columbia Studios’ and upload them. “I’ll pass it on to Woojin.”
“All right.”
“You know, but both cases have to be conducted in top secrecy. “It shouldn’t be revealed to the outside world yet. The film company will probably want that too.”
“Yes, yes.”
Choi Seong-geon, who was giving instructions, asked the team leader what suddenly occurred to him.
“Ah, but what is the title of the scenario sent by ‘World Disney Pictures’?”
It looks like they just want to check the title. Accordingly, the team leader touched the tablet in his hand a few times and showed Choi Seong-gun the information sent from ‘World Disney Pictures’. He identified the name of the work among the letters in English.
“Huh…are you making this a live-action film?”
I muttered softly to myself. His expression was one of shock and excitement again.
“This animation is one of the representative works of ‘World Disney Pictures.’”
Meanwhile.
A black van driving on the highway. Of course, it was Kang Woo-jin’s van, and its destination was the large set complex of ‘Beneficial Evil’. That is, Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do. Inside the van, Kang Woo-jin was sitting with his legs crossed, looking down at his cell phone indifferently, including the team members who were all busy with their own work.
Poker face or strong concept.
“……”
but.
‘Oooooh!’
Inside, I was racing.
‘The power has turned!!’
Because I was pretending not to be and monitoring various news. Currently, the media was having a party with numerous issues.
‘Familiar Parasite’, ‘Leech’, ‘Beneficial Evil’ and Miley Kara that thrilled the theaters.
However, the Miley Kara incident from ‘Beneficial Evil’, which broke out most recently and was full of unexpected twists, was the hottest. Public opinion in the domestic media was understandable, and Hollywood was also busy covering this issue loudly. It has now crossed over to Japan.
As a result, ‘Beneficial Evil’, including Miley Kara, and Kang Woo-jin are also frequently mentioned.
In addition, following the announcement that ‘Beneficial Evil’ would be divided into parts and launched as quickly as possible, the expectations of the public in Korea, Japan, and around the world were exploding. The number of comments posted in numerous places other than Kang Woo-jin and Kara’s SNS or YouTube channel article community is enormous.
The languages were all different, but the meaning was similar.
When can we see the work ‘Beneficial Evil’?
of course.
-You can watch it on Netflix, right?
-That’s right, I said it would be launched worldwide through Netflix!
There was also widespread information that ‘beneficial evil’ could be found anywhere in the world. Anyway, Kang Woo-jin used his cell phone to travel between Korea and overseas. Some articles were annoying to his eyes.
『[Star Talk] The issue of ‘monster actor’ Kang Woo-jin is booming, but there is no news of him entering Hollywood… Is he not popular in Hollywood?』
Since Woo-jin is such a hot topic, it feels like throwing out any bullshit or nonsense for now and see.
The comments were also similar.
-You’re saying that Kang Woo-jin is for domestic use hahaha
– At first glance, it seems like he’s not making a big impact, but Hollywood is a harder place to break into than people think
– I actually won the Best Actor Award at Cannes, but I don’t know about the big movies, but isn’t it worth the attention of medium-sized Hollywood film companies? ?
-I’ve already tried Hollywood, but I didn’t get accepted, so I don’t know if I’m just being quiet lol -But the
fact that they turned Korea and Japan upside down is amazing enoughㅋㅋㅋ But Hollywood is on a different level, and there are a lot of
malicious comments. Of course, there was no particular blow to Kang Woo-jin.
‘What are you saying? That’s bullshit.’
This was the end of the reaction. Well, it wasn’t that I didn’t understand the reporters or the malicious comments at all. From the past until now, Kang Woo-jin has built up quite a bit of international recognition, and even now, things are popping up with the likes of Miley Kara, but there has been no news related to Hollywood.
Normally, my mouth would be itching like crazy here.
In fact, big things from Hollywood were waiting for Kang Woo-jin. However, Kang Woo-jin, who has made a living in the entertainment industry, has learned the beauty of waiting. Fireworks are best exploded at night. In other words, it should be thrown when it is ripe.
Kang Woo-jin laughed to himself.
‘It’ll be fun. I wonder how people will react.’
Busan on the same afternoon.
The time was past 5 o’clock. At this time, the Busan Cinema Center, a large building, was crowded. Hundreds of reporters and even more onlookers gathered.
The reason was simple.
Because the ‘Busan International Film Festival’ will soon start at this ‘Busan Cinema Center’. It was a very large film festival, and Kang Woo-jin was also invited, but could not attend due to his schedule. Anyway, as the start of the film festival got closer, more and more people gathered. The number of reporters, which used to be hundreds, doubled, and so did the number of onlookers.
As it is an international film festival, there are quite a few foreign reporters.
Foreign directors and actors invited to the film festival also stand out. What is most impressive is the red carpet that is spread out from the entrance of the building. Stars slowly began to walk on the red carpet, which had iron fences on both sides.
-Pababababak!!
With a barrage of flashes.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
The terrifying screams or screams of the crowd of onlookers. They did not forget to take pictures with their cell phones whenever stars appeared.
Gradually, the atmosphere of the film festival heats up.
It was then. The reporters’ cries grew twice as loud.
“Oh! “Over there!”
“You’re here!! here! “Please look here, Director Ahn!!”
“Director Gabok Ang!! Director!!”
An old man dressed in a suit on the red carpet. No, because director Ang Bok appeared. However, he was not alone.
“oh! “You came with director Kwon Ki-taek??”
“Two shots are killer!”
Director Ga-bok Ang appeared alongside director Ki-taek Kwon. A parade of two great figures in the Korean film industry. Director Kwon Ki-taek graced the Korean film industry this year with ‘Island of the Missing’ and director Ahn Ga-bok with ‘Leech’. In particular, the popularity of director Anga Bok, who is currently in progress, has skyrocketed.
“hello!! Director!! “Please wave your hand!”
Director Ga-bok Ang waved his hands to the reporters with his characteristic gentlemanly old-fashioned feel.
Either way, the flash explodes endlessly. From the reporters’ perspective, the two directors were no different from rivals fighting over the ranking of all-time movies, but in reality, directors Ahn Ga-bok and Kwon Ki-taek were chatting and smiling in a friendly manner.
The two directors walked the red carpet like that.
-Sigh.
We reached the photo zone installed at the entrance of the ‘Busan Cinema Center’ building. Directors Ahn Ga-bok and Kwon Ki-taek stand at the place where logos of various companies are engraved at the ‘Busan International Film Festival.’ Broadcasting teams and reporters were gathered in the photo zone, and the photo was broadcast live across the country in real time.
At this time.
“Hello, Director Ga-bok Ahn and Director Ki-taek Kwon!”
The female host, who was in charge of interviewing several people, including stars, before entering, approached the two directors. She asked a question while holding a cue card.
“I really enjoyed watching ‘Island of the Missing’ and ‘Leech’! “Both works have made great achievements. How do you feel?”
Director Gabok Ang, with his wrinkled face, spoke first.
“I’m glad that I was able to receive more attention than I expected. “It’s all so unexpected that I’m embarrassed.”
“Yes yes?? No way! “You looked so calm at the Cannes Film Festival!”
“Haha, did you?”
Next is director Kwon Ki-taek’s turn.
“I am nothing compared to Director Angabok.”
“I’m just taking this guy’s plane.”
“No, I’m serious.”
The good relationship between the two directors was captured on camera by hundreds of reporters and broadcasting teams. Then the female host asked something else. The target is director Ang Bok.
“It feels a bit rushed since ‘Leech’ is still in theaters and is getting great results, but have you thought about your next project? “Fans are very curious!”
-Pababababak!
The speed at which many reporters press their shutters has increased. The expression also reminds me of it. Because it was a question not only fans but also reporters wanted. Warm director Kwon Ki-taek looked at director Anga-bok as if he felt the same way. A situation where everyone’s attention was focused. However, Director Ga-bok Ang’s relaxed attitude did not change.
“It’s the next project – it’s actually in progress.”
The female host’s eyes widened slightly.
“uh? “What’s going on… are you talking about your next project?”
“that’s right.”
At that moment, hundreds of reporters who were flashing their lights burst into laughter. The broadcast team did the same. A question mark also appeared on Director Kwon Ki-taek’s face. ‘Leech’ swept Cannes and is currently being released domestically. Even when I was thinking about or planning my next project, it felt quite fast.
But is it progressing at all?
Perhaps thinking it was a bit strange, the female host asked back.
“The next project is in progress? Are you saying that production has begun?”
Director Gabok Ang nodded his head slowly.
“I guess so.”
“……yes?”
Suddenly, the veteran quietly muttered to the reporters in front.
“I have decided to direct a Hollywood ‘Columbia Studios’ film.”
There was silence for a moment.
Yeoncheon at the same time.
A huge set complex where filming for ‘Beneficial Evil’ is in full swing. Producer Song Man-woo’s shout rang out on the set, where about 100 staff members were gathered.
“Cut!! OOOOK!!”
Then, an actor who was seen by several cameras walked out of the filming zone. It was Kang Woo-jin who had released ‘Jang Yeon-woo’ to the world just before. There must have been an action scene, and his face was covered in bloody makeup, and bearded producer Song Man-woo came running to Woo-jin.
“Mr. Woojin! I just killed the cut! Why do you think the action is becoming more and more spectacular? Let’s take a 10-minute break and then go back to the full shot composition.”
“Yes, PD.”
Woojin, who nodded his head with the deepest expression of the day’s expression on his face, moved again. The destination is where your chair is. When we arrived, stylists including Han Ye-jeong immediately joined us, and the big man Jang Soo-hwan handed Woo-jin a bottle of bottled water.
and.
“Woojin.”
A male voice suddenly calls out to Kang Woo-jin. When I looked, Choi Seong-geon with pigtails was smiling softly. Even as Woojin muttered to himself.
‘You weren’t there until now? ‘Did you just come here?’
He spoke lowly to Choi Seong-geon.
“Are you here, CEO?”
“Uh oh. It’s crazy, it’s crazy. Just arrived. “More than that.”
Choi Seong-gun suddenly whispers in Kang Woo-jin’s ear.
“How many minutes is the break?”
“About 10 minutes.”
“Uh oh. Come and see for a moment. “You can’t talk here.”
Choi Seong-gun led Kang Woo-jin, even biting the staff. A bit of a fast walk. The place he guided Woojin to was the parking lot outside the set warehouse. In other words, it was a van.
-Sigh.
Choi Seong-gun, who got on first, motioned to Woojin. To follow along. Although he tilted his head inwardly, Kang Woo-jin got into the van with a calm expression. As soon as the car door closed, Choi Seong-geon held out a thick wad of paper.
“First, look at this scenario.”
The first thing Kang Woo-jin saw was the English title on the cover of the paper roll or scenario.
-‘Beast and the Beauty’
It was definitely a title that Woojin was quite familiar with.
