Chapter 786 Discussion

I have to say that Kim Sun-young is very good at making cucumber kimchi.

After Sunwoo finished eating, he gave a thumbs up.

"Thumbs up."

Kim Sun-young said happily, "Is it delicious? I'm pretty good at making cucumber kimchi."

As he spoke, he began to laugh.

After thinking for a while, she stood up and walked to the courtyard wall.

The courtyard wall is not very high. You can see Fenghuangtang’s house by stepping on two bricks.

It looks like a red apricot blossoming outside the wall.

"Aze Dad, are you there?"

"Aze Dad~~"

I shouted twice, but no one came out.

Jin Shanying continued to shout: "Brother~"

With this sound, Phoenix Hall came out.

"What's wrong?"

I have to say, the rhythm is just right.

This is a master.

Jin Shanying smiled and said, "Cucumber kimchi, I asked you to eat cucumber kimchi."

Phoenix Hall said, "Oh, I see, I'll be right there."

Jin Shanying said, "Where's Aze? Come over with Aze."

Fenghuangtang said, "He's asleep, so I'll go first."

After saying that, he turned around and trotted out the door.

It seems that he can't wait.

Jin Sunying, who was standing on the courtyard wall, looked at his back with a smile on her face.

……

In the alley.

After finishing their meal, Li Renyong and others prepared to go out.

Paula was in the driver's seat with her head sticking out of the window.

"Ayong, you can take Sister Nanzhu's car, it's just on your way."

Li Renyong said: "I understand. Drive slowly and be careful."

Zheng Nanzhu smiled and said, "Goodbye, Paula."

Paula nodded and hummed softly.

Soon, the car disappeared.

Zheng Nanzhu said, "Let's go too. The car is parked outside the alley."

Li Renyong said, "Sister Nanzhu, thank you for today. I was thinking of going to the company to get it when I have time."

Zheng Nanzhu smiled and said, "I haven't met and chatted with Sister Huili for a long time. Originally, Li Changdong was going to come here in person."

Li Renyong said: "How come the movie tickets came out so quickly?"

Zheng Nanzhu said: "These things were done by Ma Richeng, and pre-sales have started today."

When I arrived at the company, I went to Lee Chang-dong's office.

Lee Chang-dong still holds the cigar in his hand.

"Ayong, why are you here?"

Li Renyong glanced at him and said, "Where's Park Chan-wook? Doesn't he want a script? I suddenly had an idea last night. I'll discuss it with him. If he thinks it's okay, I'll write the script."

Ma Richeng said: "He should be in the crew. Knowing that you have the script so soon, I think he will come as quickly as possible."

Sure enough, after receiving the call, Park Chan-wook took a taxi and rushed back. When he arrived at the office, he was sweating profusely.

Zheng Nanzhu brought a cup of coffee and said, "Don't worry, drink some coffee first."

After thanking him, Park Chan-wook asked, "Teacher Li, what kind of book is this?"

As soon as this was said, everyone laughed.

Speak directly without beating around the bush.

Li Renyong smiled and said, "Have you heard about the recent Hwaseong serial murder case?"

Lee Chang-dong took a vicious puff of his cigarette and exhaled a puff of smoke.

"It's been more than two years since this happened. Who doesn't know about this? But the murderer has never been found. Those tax thieves are all rubbish."

Ma Richeng asked tentatively: "Is the book related to this matter?"

Li Renyong nodded and said, "That's right, the script hasn't been written yet. The director this time is Park Chan-wook, and we haven't worked together before, so let's discuss it in advance."

Park Chan-wook took a sip of coffee and remained silent.

Before, Li Renyong asked him if there was any type of script he wanted to shoot, and he said that as long as it was written by Li Renyong, it would be fine.

Now that Li Renyong has chosen to adapt the film based on real events, it must be a crime thriller.

Were there any crime thrillers on the Peninsula before 90?
Yes, but it's full of violence and pornography.

All the evil that is not beautiful can be found.

Only a person with a twisted mind would choose to watch this type of movie.

Not only are they niche genres, but most of them are not considered masterpieces.

In this case, choosing to shoot such an unpopular subject is a risk.

As for whether the murderer of the Hwaseong serial murders would take revenge after watching the movie, this was not within his consideration.

As a director, he just wants to make a good movie that can stand the test of decades.

Li Renyong glanced at him and said, "This script actually has many advantages. It is very interesting in terms of both controversy and story. Because it is an unsolved case, the public's emotions cannot be vented. We just need to grasp this emotion and resonate with the audience emotionally."

"The plot is enough, we still need commercial packaging. As for the use of narrative techniques, this depends on Director Park."

"In short, this movie will definitely be a hit, with a gripping suspenseful narrative and a deeper ideological core. Director Park may even win an award directly with this movie."

Zheng Nanzhu nodded and said, "If there are advantages, there must be disadvantages."

Li Renyong said: "The downside is that we may be harassed by the victim's family, who may accuse us of making money from the dead. We may also be retaliated by the murderer. There are too many unexpected things. Director Park, what do you think?"

Ma Richeng said: "I think we can give it a try."

When the script for "Joint Security Area" came out, everyone was afraid of this and that, but in the end, didn't it still win an award?
Park Chan-wook stood up and bowed to Lee In-yong.

"Thank you, Mr. Li. I'll take this book."

This is a bold attempt.

If I don't accept it, I don't know when it will be my turn for the second script.

Maybe Li Renyong feels that he does not have the courage and chooses not to cooperate.

Li Renyong stood up and said, "Don't be so serious, just call me Yong. Sister Nanzhu, bring me some paper and pen."

Li Changdong took a pen and paper from the table and placed it in front of Li Renyong and said, "Ayong, are you going to write it now?"

Li Renyong smiled and said, "How is that possible? It's just to set the tone. The first step is to expand the scope and raise the level to the level of social guilt responsibility."

After saying that, he wrote a sentence in the notebook.

Society is focused on external activities and has no time to take care of people's livelihood and public security. It is not so much incompetence as it is the ugliness of the times that has prevented the criminals from being caught.

When this sentence was written, everyone felt that this movie was not an ordinary crime film.

Li Renyong continued, "Many foreign films convey humanistic care from the perspective of the victim. This time I plan to focus on the process of solving the case. What do you think?"

Lee Chang-dong waved his hand and said, "Don't ask us about writing the script. As long as Park Chan-wook agrees, it's fine."

Park Chan-wook smiled and said, "I don't care. Yong writes the script and I will shoot it according to it."

Li Renyong said: "Okay, I'll write it for you later."
