Chapter 106 Dilemma

"What's wrong?" After thinking for a while, Kim Jong-ming pinched the cigarette powerlessly. Wiusco "Ask beforehand, we have something to say, and we must go straight to the point."

"I...I'm worried that I won't be able to act well." Liu Renna's tears came down. Fortunately, this movie asked her to be without makeup throughout the whole process, otherwise her whole face would have been spent.

"What then?" Kim Jong-ming asked with a frown. "So what if I don't think the acting is good?"

"Then..." Liu Renna, who was originally covered in pear blossoms, was speechless.

Yes, so what if I don’t act well, do I have to change people at this time? Not to mention whether I am willing to give up this opportunity, or even my family or company, I have a positive attitude of encouragement towards being able to participate in this movie... How could I give up easily in this situation?

But then again, Liu Renna still felt like she was blocked by something... If she didn't say it, she might not be able to sleep at night.

"I'm just afraid that I can't act well, and then I'll become a sinner if I lower the movie level by then." Liu Renna replied with tears in her eyes.

"What a bullshit sinner... Who told you this?" Jin Zhongming couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"No one told me directly." Liu Renna whispered. "It's just that after following the crew these days, some people and some things are always a bit stressful after they come into contact with them..."

"I understand some things." Kim Jong-ming took a step back and then leaned against the school wall. "Because this situation is common to everyone. After all, the concentrated shooting of some scenes in the plot is really hard for us who are living normally... But what do some people mean? Who in our crew makes you feel stressed?"

Liu Renna didn't say anything.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Kim Jong-ming understood what was going on.

You know, this is Gwangju after all, and even if the Gwangju Municipal Government chose to remain silent about the filming of this film, the opposition forces have no unified organizers. However, for all specific areas of the entire city, the crew is still an unpopular group. What is their attitude and will it be blocked intentionally or unintentionally? No one knows this.

Therefore, in order to reduce unnecessary contact and avoid unnecessary trouble, the crew also adopted a closed shooting method accordingly. Anyway, there is currently a natural closed studio in the school! In fact, Kim Jong-ming and Hwang Dong-hyuk all set an example from the beginning, and most actors and staff followed suit after seeing this picture and prepared to shoot in a concentrated manner.

In this case, the members of the local Gwangju human rights organization who had been working hard in the incident have now become a natural communication bridge between the crew and the city outside. The necessary judicial procedures when setting up equipment, the daily maintenance of shooting equipment... and even when ordering lunch boxes, all of these things are involved and helped by the volunteers of the Gwangju human rights organization. Their attention to this matter and the enthusiasm of these people have indeed provided great help to the crew.

But...it seems that their enthusiasm is a bit too much now!

"Sister Inna." Kim Jong-ming became even more helpless after thinking it through. "You have to understand them... For many of them, this incident is actually a curse, and some people have been entangled for a whole decade! In this case, you can't wait to see a new solution. What's more, people with a little common sense know that your character is their incarnation, and it is actually normal for them to look forward to you more."

"I understand..." Liu Renna replied with her head down.

"But... I still feel that the pressure is very high, right?" Kim Jong-ming raised his eyebrows.

"That's right." Liu Renna lowered her head and replied. "I know it may be embarrassing to say this, but... the more enthusiastic they are about me, the more worried I am. I know very well that if this kind of movie destined to be a topic is good, but if it is really a mess, wouldn't I become a joke? But I am the person with the worst acting skills here and the least experience!"

"This is the truth." Kim Jong-ming nodded frankly. "But sister Inna, have you ever thought about this kind of pressure? In fact, everyone, including me, is it true that you have little experience and poor acting skills. But I am rich in experience and the most famous ones, isn't there any reason for pressure? So what's the use of you looking for me? Can I guarantee you anything else?"

"I also know it's useless to find you... But who can I go to talk to?" Liu Renna responded in a very embarrassing manner. "Do you want me to go directly to the volunteers of the human rights organizations, please don't be so enthusiastic about me?"

Jin Zhongming made a default.

"But... why did you cry again?" After a while of silence, Kim Jong-ming cheered up and continued to ask. "It can't be because someone added an extra chicken leg when handing you a lunch box?"

"That won't be." Liu Renna still had the expression of embarrassment. "Actually, I just cried because I was worried about not being good at acting. I just thought of this after crying... I was actually because I saw Hyun-soo being stuffed into the washing machine in the girls' dormitory..."

"That's an acting... Hyun-soo still smiled and ran out to compete for snacks with In-su?" Kim Jong-ming interrupted the other party impatiently.

"But..." Liu Renna raised her head and felt a little reluctant to speak.

"But what?"

"But... but although we were filming a scene, isn't there a real prototype behind this scene?" Liu Renna couldn't help but shed tears again. "The people from the Human Rights Organization told me that the plots in the script are real things. Deaf and mute children in that school had really encountered these things before. When I watched it, I also marked it as adapted from real events... But I didn't feel that it was even possible to bear it when I was filming today. But when the filming was finished, when we actresses returned to the girls' dormitory that we used to film, I couldn't stand looking at the washing machine... Did those people really immerse such a young child in the washing machine? And those more excessive things?"

"Then let's take a good photo." Kim Jong-ming could only say that.

"But I'm afraid I can't shoot it well." Liu Renna cried even more fiercely. "If this movie doesn't attract attention because I can't shoot it well... Then how can I film it in the future?"

"First!" Kim Jong-ming replied with a dark face. "Don't cry anymore. What's the point of letting those little actors see? Even if they don't consider them, what will others think when they see the heroine's emotional collapse?"

Liu Renna tried hard to erase her tears.

"Secondly." Kim Jong-ming continued to say with a stern face. "This movie will definitely succeed, and you don't have to worry about not being able to act well, because you are the actor I selected. If it really doesn't work, I will bring you out even if I can take the lead! Do you understand?!"

Liu Renna nodded desperately.

Jin Zhongming breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know how to coax and scare her, he finally managed to hold on to the scene temporarily.

"Give you a task!" After thinking for a while, Jin Zhongming, whose head hurt so much that he felt uncomfortable, spoke again.

"Zhong Ming, you said." Liu Renna has regained her rationality.

"Aren't you going to film heroes tomorrow?" Kim Jong-ming said, touching the cigarette box in his pocket. "You want to go back to Seoul, right?"

"Um!"

"Then let's go now, go to us by the way, and meet someone for me... and be more hidden."

"who?"

"Ms. Qian Changming, a psychological counselor in our company's medical room...find her and told her about your situation and see if she has any solutions."

"I... understand." Liu Renna hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

"That's good." Kim Jong-ming nodded and left directly, not caring about the other party's hesitation, because he knew that the other party was worried that it would be bad for his reputation after the incident was spread, and that he was afraid of being damaged in face. In fact, if it weren't for the workplace culture of the same company being protected by foreign trade, even the artists and staff of the cube company would not have gone to find Qian Changming. By the same token, as the rule, as a Korean crew, which is not less than the Hong Kong movie circle, the people on the set themselves would probably find it difficult to accept the psychologist's entry in a comprehensive and generous manner... This may even convey some bad signals to the outside world.

Of course, this is also the reason why Kim Jong-ming did not contact Qian Changming directly, even though he vaguely felt that letting professionals intervene was the best way to deal with it.

Then... Qian Changming's arrival was much faster than he thought. In fact, that night, there were still fine floating outside, and it was hard to tell whether it was a freezing rain or an unknown object of snow. The female psychological counselor drove over directly.

"You are very irresponsible!" As soon as you met, the imperial sister made a conclusion to Kim Jong-ming.

"What exactly is it? Let's talk about it outside." Jin Zhongming responded as if nothing had happened, and pushed the other party to the curb at the school gate.

By the way, because of the sudden freezing rain, the school was filled with staff who helped to clean up and cover the equipment, and Kim Jong-ming didn't want these topics between him and Qian Changming to be heard by the crew.

That will shake the morale of the army.

"I mean three children!" Qian Changming's reason was very legitimate and reasonable. "You asked them to shoot this kind of scene, but they didn't arrange a professional psychologist to provide guidance?! I'm talking about a serious psychologist, the kind who is active in treatment, not a passive psychologist like me."

"What you said makes sense." Kim Jong-ming nodded, but the expression on his face did not fluctuate at all. "But... you have to understand that if I do this, the children's parents will be the first to object. They will not want their children to be labeled as mentally ill if they make a movie."

Qian Changming is a stagnant.

"And... the next objection will be those colleagues you know in your own company, and they will tell you that there is no need for a psychologist on the set..."

"So...hum!" Qian Changming sneered rarely. "So, why did I wander abroad for so long before I came back... People in this country love face to the point of being afraid of doctors!"

"Where do you think this movie came about?" Kim Jong-ming asked without hesitation. "A case that was originally extremely simple, even if the verdict was unfair... But if it weren't for the love of those big names that the matter was covered and concealed layer by layer, and finally dragged down the entire upper class of Gwangju, how could this ridiculous situation be formed today?"

"Then what are you going to do?" Qian Changming relaxed a little.

"If I knew what to do, I wouldn't have let Yoo Inna come to you specifically." Kim Jong-ming smiled bitterly. "I'm almost driven crazy myself... Let's put it this way, the children are actually in good condition. After all, the three children are playing together, and from time to time there are a group of children who are brought to be extras from Jeollanam Do, and we are all paying attention to this matter... I even thought about it. You can definitely come to the crew as a family teacher. A teacher from Seoul University to Sungkyung Kwan will tutor their homework. The children's parents will not only not object, but I'm afraid they will be very happy... But the problem now is..."

"What's the problem now?" After hearing that Kim Jong-ming had a way to let her go into the crew to take care of the child, Qian Changming's expression immediately returned to the calm and calm image she had always given people.

"The problem now is... it's not the children, but us adults." Kim Jong-ming looked back at the brightly lit school behind him. "Do you have a way to let these male and female actors who act as sexual perverts and sadistics accept your guidance? Even if you cheat or indirect guidance..."

"Impossible." Qian Changming's face, which had just calmed down, became ugly again. "How mature are adults? What am I here for? They know clearly when they come into contact with each other, not to mention that so many colleagues from the company know me... that way..."

"In that case, it will be difficult for them to accept your guidance. After all, there are so many people in the crew... so it's difficult!" Kim Jong-ming was helpless. "As the same thing, why do you think I wanted Liu Renna to find you?"

Qian Changming then fell silent, but after a while she spoke again: "But this won't work, right? If there is really a large-scale problem inside the crew, the movie will not be able to be filmed."

"I know." Kim Jong-ming took out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and then lit another one for himself with fine snow slags sprinkled around him. "I have been filming movies for so many years, and I never thought that the most difficult thing for a movie was the filming itself... There are no technical restrictions, no funding restrictions, no actors who have made big names, and no theoretically could cause the movie to be interrupted... But, I can't continue filming. After all,... the most fundamental thing that affects the progress of a thing is the heart of the people!"

Qian Changming was silent again. This time she waited for a long time but didn't speak. Instead, she quietly watched Jin Zhongming finish smoking a cigarette in his hand, then lit another one, and finished smoking another one.

"If it really doesn't work, then forget it." Kim Jong-ming decided not to waste time after putting down the cigarette butt. "The movie can be allowed to be more difficult and rough, the actors can be allowed to have some emotional disorders, and some shots are also allowed to be deleted and modified... Anyway, everyone has tried their best. After all, I am too self-righteous. I think I have a sufficient grasp of this movie, but in fact I underestimated it."

"Do you know what I'm thinking when I haven't spoken?" Qian Changming suddenly spoke.

"How could I know?"

"From the perspective of a psychological counselor, my position should be very firm." Qian Changming replied. "That is, don't worry about any movie, I should always put the mental health of people as the first goal, so logically, I should agree with what you just thought. However, since you came to my office to ask me for that consultation that day, I have also gained my own understanding of this movie... That is, it must be filmed seriously and with all my strength... Putting aside those ridiculous political struggles, this movie itself is almost the only way to restore justice to those deaf and mute children."

"I can do it personally." Kim Jong-ming brushed away the ice slag on the down jacket with some annoyance. "A local ridiculous small consortium in Gwangju, I can say hello to Chengwen and Qingxuan to make them bankrupt."

"I'm talking about justice." Qian Changming repeated seriously.

Kim Jong-ming stopped talking immediately, but he had no intention of getting up. As Qian Changming said, no matter how difficult it is, he must shoot this movie seriously and with all his strength. Now... this is already an obligation for me. But then again, this sense of responsibility has suppressed everyone in the crew, including myself, and I can't breathe.

In this way, as Gwangju in front of him lit up colorful lights in the haze of snow or rain, the man and woman, two top students from Seoul, were sitting on the curbs in front of this school, and staring at the city that was actually called Gwangju movies, which were changed to Wujin by the writer. And after those things that didn't know whether it was rain or snow fell on their clothes, they easily melted and freezed, putting a layer of cold ice shell on the clothes. The thin shell was so heavy that the two of them could not get up.

At nine o'clock in the evening, when Su Xiaoya came to ask Jin Zhongming to go back for dinner for the third time but was rejected by him, Qian Changming suddenly moved his body and shook the ice shell on his coat.

"I... recalled some of the situations when Liu Renna came to me in the afternoon." Qian Changming actually spoke. "Actually... although I couldn't think of some direct and effective ways to deal with this situation, if I cut from the side and relieve it to a certain extent... there are still some methods with unknown effects."

"Tell me." Jin Zhongming finally had a hint of anger on his face.

"The environment is something that has a huge impact on people's psychology." Qian Changming pointed to the school behind him without looking back. "You... choose a closed shooting reason and make people say nothing, but if there is an open shooting environment and let the crew communicate more with the outside world, it will definitely relieve everyone's psychological state to a certain extent... Of course, this is just an idea, and the specific measures and effects must be viewed in detail."

Kim Jong-ming did not directly respond to the other party's suggestion, but pointed to the city in front of him: "Do you know? In this city... the education industry, the judicial industry, the religious industry, the government civil servants, local enterprises, celebrities in the same city, local media... and even ordinary people all over the city, what is their attitude towards our crew? What's more... The reason why this movie disappeared in the media is not only because of the deliberate suppression of the Gwangju local and the Duckbopai camp, but in fact I also mobilized my strength to prevent the familiar media from intervening, but also blocked the conservative camp's intervention... because I don't want this movie to become a weapon of political confrontation before it is perfected... That would be too sad! At least... I have to have a clear conscience in artistic restoration? What you just said... are the two words "justice?"

"I mean..." Qian Changming replied with a little difficulty. "What if, I mean, if, open the crew to the outside world, but only accept the criticism and rudeness of the city, and not let the political forces behind you intervene?"

"That would make the crew fall into another predicament." Kim Jong-ming sneered. "Some people, just when they encountered some problems in the selection of heroines before, can't wait to do something... I won't say more. I just want to say that some people are too stupid and short-sighted. Even if they convey a little bit of weakness, they will jump up and down, let alone just let go without fighting back? If that's the case, I guess what happens in this school during winter vacation will definitely be wonderful."

"Zhong Ming... you don't understand what I mean." Qian Changming sighed. "From the perspective of a psychological counselor, I shouldn't have conducted extra analysis and...study on people's hearts. However, in the current situation of the crew... if they feel all kinds of malicious intentions from the outside world, they might become more tough and serious. Some unnecessary psychological problems may be suppressed... This is human nature."

The hand that Jin Zhongming went to take out the cigarette was frozen on the spot.

"I went in for a meal... I've been hungry for a long time." Qian Changming stood up with difficulty. "I hope the boxed lunches on your set taste good."

"What if... the situation is out of control?" When the other party walked to the school gate, Kim Jong-ming suddenly turned around and asked. "If we let go... let this city be hostile to us, will it defeat everyone in the crew?"

"It depends on your level." Qian Changming walked into the school without even looking back. "If you have the ability to end the malicious attack in this city at any time at the right time... Then open the door as you want."

Kim Jong-ming turned around and sat there. After a long time, he trembled and lit the last cigarette in the cigarette box.

But this time he didn't smoke a gulp, but stared at the cigarette and burned it all.
