Chapter 814: Gathering
The preparation, rehearsal, and adjustment of the opening ceremony is not a one-day effort, nor is it a matter of one team or one company.
Fortunately, there is a bonus in the country in terms of concentrating on doing good things, and Gan Jing has not worried about this from beginning to end, only thinking about how to do better and best.
Even so, he is indeed much more cautious about the opening ceremony than the movie.
"The Nameless" starring Liu Peichuan and Qiu Ran will be released on July 30, and Gan Jing only symbolically looked at the finished product after the director's initial cut and felt OK.
Xie Jiang, Zhang Zhonghui, and Fan Ze's "Let's Wrestle! Dad" was completed, and this blockbuster drama was not as much as "The Nameless" until he arrived in Shencheng, and Zhang Zhonghui repeatedly asked Gan Yingdi to come and guide but was ruthlessly refused.
Of course, the actor can't come, others can come.
On the afternoon of July 28, the crew who returned from the mountains heard that the boss was in Shencheng and came here directly.
It's almost a kung fu before and after, and the young crew of "Nobody" also arrived in Shencheng, and they didn't run to the boss but the premiere was set in this city.
In view of the cooperation between the Shanghai International Film Festival, the Paralympic Games and Beijing Blu-ray, not only "Nobody", but also "Let's Wrestle! Dad" and "Iron Fist of Shame" and other planned works will break the convention of Beijing Blu-ray and premiere in Shanghai instead.
Even, the Beijing Blu-ray subsidiary promoted the GEM to choose the stock exchange after the swing, of course, the factors in this matter are more complicated.
As the boss, even though Gan Jing came to Shencheng for two days, he naturally welcomed the arrival of the two groups of heroes with a big banquet.
"Forrest Gump, Forrest Gump, your shelf is really big!"
The two groups of people arrived at the airport and the high-speed rail station respectively, although the crew of "Wrestling! Dad" had an earlier flight, but the two sides still took a photo and saw the blue light of the capital together.
In terms of relationship, Zhang Zhonghui is undoubtedly the closest to Gan Jing, but the first complaint at the meeting came from the mouth of the old director Xie Jiang.
Gan Jing was a little surprised, and while secretly thinking that it was Lao Zhang's words when he came, he laughed and said: "Director Xie, Director Xie, I haven't seen filming for a while, I miss you to death." ”
The old director Xie Jiang's eyebrows and eyes were serious, and it seemed that this did not work.
Gan Jing's gaze followed his words to the back, he took two steps forward and dragged the little director Xie Yu who was standing behind the old director, and continued: "Young people are the hope of the future of the film, come on, let Director Xie take a look at Director Xie." ”
Beijing Blu-ray has two cooperating directors Xie, the old director Xie Jiang, and the young director Xie Yu, who happened to be on the battlefield today, the former filmed "Wrestling! Dad", and the latter filmed "The Nameless".
Xie Jiang's eyebrows softened.
Ganjing's move worked.
He doesn't know how to do the trick, and now that the blue light in the capital has become larger, how can he take care of everything?
Seeing this, Zhang Zhonghui also praised: "I saw the promotional video of "The Nameless", and it was cut very well, Xie Yu did a good job this time. ”
Xie Jiang puffed up his chest slightly.
The younger Xie Yu said modestly: "Liu Peichuan and Qiu Ran are very hard-working, and we tried our best to shoot, but we were afraid of smashing the company's signboard and making the movie lose money." ”
Gan Jing smiled "haha" and said with relief: "It's okay, it's okay, how can you say that movies are 100% profitable?"
Everyone nodded slightly.
Gan Jing continued: "Anyway, Lao Xie is here with me, you are afraid, even if you shoot, you can't shoot and pay off your father's debts." ”
The old director's expression was a little tense, and the little director nodded subconsciously in astonishment, and the others laughed at the reaction of the father and son.
Speaking of the reception banquet that night, in fact, it is more important to talk about the "special attention unit" of the Shencheng International Film Festival - this is a matter that belongs to the film and television industry, and it seems to be more in line with Ganjing's identity than the Paralympics.
The first "Special Attention Unit" set up three awards, namely "Best Actor", "Best Work" and "Best Filmmaker", in addition to honorary trophies and cash prizes.
During this period of time, Gan Jing has been busy with "Flying Life" and the Paralympics, Xie Jiang, Zhang Zhonghui, and Fan Ze have teamed up to shoot "Wrestling! Dad", and only Chen Ruoqing of the five judges in the film unit has deservedly fulfilled his duties.
If you give a score to the competence of the five judges, Chen Ruoqing is the highest, Zhang Zhonghui is second, and Gan Jing is undoubtedly the bottom.
But if given to the five judges... Target... "Thank you to the other judges for their function to make me salted fish" to score a score, and Gan Jing was the first.
"Special Attention Unit" because of its relationship with Beijing Blu-ray, the latter has maintained considerable restraint and has not reported his own works much, and as of the end of July, only one director Xie Yu's upcoming "Nobody" has been reported to compete for the "best work".
It's just that Beijing Blu-ray and the five judges have more or less communicated to reach a tacit agreement: Xie Yu will not win any awards in the first "Special Attention Unit".
A new module is already attracting attention, especially when it comes to large bonuses, which is more likely to cause widespread discussion.
Even if Gan Jing emphasized to the media at the beginning of the news announcement that this will be a "highly subjective" award, "subjectivity" and "gold content" are not contradictory, and it is the best solution for personal and company interests to make the "Forrest Gump unit" an influential award in the industry.
"Chen Ruoqing has worked hard during this time, when will she come to Shencheng? I have to pay tribute to her. ”
Zhang Zhonghui has been in the mountains for a long time, and now he is in a good mood when he returns to the international metropolis, and he walked around the cat and dog at the reception banquet for a while before walking back to Gan Jing and touching his juice cup.
"It could only be a few days. Gan Jing smiled, "Ruoqing is still very responsible, I will make a small proposal first, and next year's judges must have a place for her." ”
"I agree, but I won't be able to do this next year. Zhang Zhonghui nodded first, and then said, "I have to accompany my wife and children next year." ”
Gan Jing smiled and said nothing, I have heard this several times, accompany, it's not that I don't let you accompany, how much time can I take up to be a judge without filming, and then I see who can't help it.
Zhang Zhonghui didn't pay attention to Forrest Gump's expression, and said in pieces: "It's a call for this film festival to finish this year, hey, hard work comes and goes, and as a result, this thing is called 'Forrest Gump Unit', oh yes, there is also a "Wrestling! Dad", this drama has to be cut well, Forrest Gump, you don't know how hard we filmed! Good things can't be wasted!"
Gan Jing nodded again and again, he really understands the state of the actor when he is fully engaged in filming, and the configuration of this drama is not top-notch in China.
"Combine work and rest, take a good rest and rest when you finish it, since you come to Shencheng, then give us this opening ceremony staff officer. ”
Zhang Zhonghui frowned: "Your capitalist warmth is too short-lived, right?"
"No, no, when you're tired from filming, just watch the opening ceremony, which belongs to a break for a change of mind. Gan Jing asked, "Aren't you curious about what a film director can toss at the opening ceremony of the Games?"
Zhang Zhonghui groaned: "You said it from this point of view, it sounds a little interesting." ”
