191. step by step (2)
“No, what is this again? Assemble all of a sudden. What else are you going to do?”
The first to react was, of course, Um Kang-seok. because it’s closest
“I am going to make a movie.”
“Take it. what a surprise It’s not once or twice that you’ve taken a movie… can’t you?”
Thinking of the list of people who sent the e-mail, Kang Seok looked at Jaeik with a puzzled look on his face, and Jaeik nodded as if his thoughts were correct.
“A collaboration film with Detective. with my own hands. only with my staff. I am the general manager. A movie that went through my hands from one to ten.”
Wouldn’t it be better to have two than one, three rather than two? And because I always wanted to shoot a movie like this.
“How about time?”
“Not enough. Because there is nothing urgent right now. Either way, our top priority is a theme park after all. Because this movie is also quite important for a theme park.”
Mflix also decided to invest a large amount, but it was Detective that promised a larger amount.
And as Sean O’Connell said, the prerequisite was the expansion of collaboration between the two companies.
In other words, as a detective, it is a challenge to the future good fortune. It was a spring bet on Song Jae-ik.
The urgency of not being able to always fall behind Dizzy and Babble.
“I will adjust the Korean side schedule and call you to the US as soon as possible. Will that work?”
“right. It would be nice if you could explain it as well. I think I can just let them know that I’m filming a movie that has to hit the jackpot and has no choice but to hit it. Oh, call Luke too. I couldn’t get in touch with you because the messenger was different. Luke should do it too.”
“The horse is very clearing. That would be fun. okay. I’ll call Luke too.”
“thank you. Then, of course, it’s fun.”
But Kang Seok’s expression was also smiling.
Na Young-jin as assistant director, Joo Soo-in as cinematographer, Eom Kang-seok as assistant, Jeong-yeon as OST, Ryu Min-woo, Park Jae-hyeok, Jin Young-jae as each part head, and Jin Kyu-hyeok as actor.
It felt like the time had come to reap the seeds that had been sown.
Shooting was especially important for this film.
That’s why it was essential to have a master who knows his thoughts best and can take pictures as he thinks. For this kind of situation, wouldn’t it be the same as when I was filming a movie with director Spielberg?
If only the movie came out the way you thought.
“I’m sure there will be a movie that will be awesome.”
Because I was so full of confidence.

When the people who were summoned by Jae Ik were packing up for America.
Jaeik first formed a consortium with the companies that had been negotiated and gathered people.
[Challenge Everything Theme Park Consortium]
In the field of theme parks, while recruiting executives from the Wizard Group who have tremendous expertise, at the same time promoting the construction of theme parks and requesting meetings in each country.
Jaeik said he wanted to build in Korea, but shouldn’t we just cling to Korea blindly?
[Challenge Everything Theme Park. How far does Song Jae-ik’s dream go?]
[Challenge Everything Theme Park with Mflix and Detective.]
[The cooperative relationship between the three companies being announced.]
[Where is the planned country for the theme park? Korea and the US are influential.]
At the same time, omnidirectional promotional articles were spread, and of course, Koreans started to get excited.
– Unconditionally Korea!
– Make some cool theme parks in Korea!
– Where you are now is more like an amusement park than a theme!
– Ah, Korea too! Japan, China and Hong Kong all exist, but we are the only ones!
– In addition, Challenge Everything! It’s a Korean company! Jeb Al! As long as you don’t fool around above, there is a possibility!
Still, Song Jae-ik is a Korean, but how great it would be if the world-renowned Challenge Everything theme park, No. 1, came to Korea.
Besides, there are already several world-class theme parks in Japan, China, and Hong Kong.
(Even though the plan was just announced, there are already endless applications for meetings in the lobby here and there. Korean companies in particular are very enthusiastic.)
(Yes, I have been receiving a lot of calls as well.)
(It’s a business with a lot of money at stake. Not just anyone can do it.)
Building a theme park did not end with simply decorating the place and building rides.
Of course, rides had to be made, but in the case of the dark ride, it would be a large-scale construction involving advanced technology.
Right now, about 500 billion won was spent on the construction of one Harry Potter district in Osaka, Japan.
In addition, if you think about such things as creating an environment within a theme park or landscaping the surrounding environment, such as a hotel, collaboration with other companies in the country was obviously essential.
Gordon Hartman, who was recruited for the construction of the theme park, seemed to be in a good mood and had a smile on his face.
Isn’t a new challenge always exciting? Especially when it comes to building a new theme park.
Besides, the story of Ricky was a work that the daughters also liked very much.
It could have been a rude request, but when I asked Jaeik for a picture of Ricky’s story, the expression my daughter liked and showed was really more happy than any other moment in the world.
(Later, when meeting with the relevant local government or company, the representative may have to come forward. If you are going to build in Korea, in the end, the person from the same country will communicate the most.)
At Gordon’s words, Jaeik nodded. Because it wasn’t wrong.
(Please proceed step by step. There is absolutely no reason for us to go in at a loss.)
(Of course. If a theme park is built properly, the economic value that comes along with it is enormous. From employment to infrastructure vitalization, and even tourists in the case of a world-class theme park.
(I will trust you.)
The most active places were, of course, the United States and Korea.
The United States was at the level of showing interest in a few states.
In Korea, the local government already wants to meet, and at the same time, it is to the extent that Jaeik is contacted separately. This was especially true for local governments outside the metropolitan area.
This is because almost all amusement parks with amusements in Korea were concentrated in the metropolitan area.
(You will never be disappointed. If I fail when I already have enough capital, sources, and these wonderful blueprints, it would be my lack of ability.)

Looking at Gordon’s confidence, I thought I could definitely trust him with the theme park related work.
—
“Uh. it’s crazy. It’s crazy.”
“So. Why are they so attached?”
“I never really thought it would be this persistent.”
“Don’t even do that. It’s a theme park. An individual achieving this level of success with content and building a theme park. Isn’t it worth a cup of gukbbong pak-?”
and the next day. The party, who came a long way from Korea by plane, shook their heads in disgust and sighed.
From the moment I left the country to the moment I arrived in the United States, I suffered endlessly.
Various corporate officials, local government officials, and even reporters. Even reporters and corporate officials somehow followed the US.
“No, but it must be true that they are really building a theme park, right?”
“It must be true. If it wasn’t for that, I would have refuted it even if it wasn’t a long time ago.”
“So. I wish I could have told you in advance. This is true.”
“That’s why reporters stick around, but since I don’t know anything, I have nothing to say.”
Jaeik sighed without eye contact in front of him, and shook his hand while holding back the laughter that leaked out at the sight of people complaining without complaining.
Somehow, Korean employees found out later than the news. I was sad enough.
That’s why I grumbled so cutely. It wasn’t really cute to see grown adults grumbling.
“I’m so sorry. Suddenly things happened like this. Actually, of course, I was going to say it first. I didn’t know that it would suddenly spread after it spread like this on social media.”
“Kuhm.”
“Instead, I shoot tonight. I made a reservation at a very delicious restaurant. It’s a Michelin-starred house.”
“I can’t stand American restaurants.”
Only then did people smile and look at Jae-Ik.
“How are you?”
“long time no see. Is your face getting clearer?”
“He is no longer the Jaeik we used to know. It’s the boss, it’s the boss. No, are you the president now?”
No matter how much time passed, these people did not change. I’ve been watching Jaeik’s growth process, so it might be like that.
At least in public and in the field, I am a professional, so how can I not get close to these people?
“But why did you invite all of us to take a picture? Youtube program? drama?”
“When I looked at Kang-seok’s e-mail, it only said that he was filming something, but there were no details.”
“A Hollywood movie. A collaboration work with Detective. We will make a movie out of it.”
“uh? A Hollywood movie?”
I knew we were going to shoot something, but a Hollywood movie and a Detective hero?
“That? Between us?”
“yes. why? Do you think you can’t?”
“Uh, um. Not that.”
“Total estimated production cost of $200 million. All film adaptations are self-produced by Challenge Everything. Detective literally only accepts character licenses.”
“So. You mean making a $200 million movie on Challenge Everything, right?”
“Of course, Detective decided to help with distribution and publicity. After the screening, of course, it is a condition for Mflix.”
Even so, making a $200 million movie literally only with the power of Challenge Everything?
“The script is complete. The staff will be confirmed if everyone agrees. You can make a team. Actor Kyu-hyeok hyung is the lead role. Of course, since it is a collaboration, additional roles will be discussed and cast with Detective.”
The estimated shooting period is 4 months, the post-production period is 8 months, the production cost is 200 million dollars, and the estimated marketing cost is also about 200 million dollars.
It was literally a blockbuster hero movie.
It wasn’t that there weren’t film production sites in Hollywood where only Korean directors and key positions were staffed with Korean staff, but I could be sure that there had never been a case like this.
“Since everything is worth doing, Jae-Ik must have asked me to do it. is not it?”
“That is correct. If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t have had to shout assemble.”
“What can’t you do!”
“Yes.”
“Then do it!”
When I started to make up my mind to do it, people’s eyes burned with passion.
Who hasn’t dreamed of The dream of making a movie in Hollywood. I just stared at the wall because it was so high.
After entering this industry, everything was a dream I had once.
“Unconditionally based on skill. I need to get in touch with the good guys.”
“What are you going to do with CG? After all, the key is CG.”
“That part is already being negotiated. It’s an important film, so it’s a solid company.”
And the reason why Jaeik wants to proceed with film production by himself in Challenge Everything.
What I felt while collaborating with Mflix and Detective, in the end it was a high risk high return.
Because no one knew how much money a total investment of $400 million would return.
