Chapter 280: Force
The invitation to the 60th anniversary of Chinese opera is a good thing.
Li Sheng is a Chinese opera boy who played the young Liu Jianming in "Infernal Affairs", and he was signed away by Kang Run, which is a bad thing.
However, Yu Jing was still overjoyed when she heard these two things, and she asked very seriously: "Will Chinese opera send you a graduation certificate?"
"Hmm......" Gan Jinghui replied with serious thought and uncertainties, "Probably not, right?" But the performance of "Infernal Affairs" is very good, maybe it can have the status of "outstanding alumni", and "outstanding alumni" doesn't stipulate that you can't get it without a graduation certificate, right?"
The two men in the office were lost in thought at the same time.
After a while, Yu Jing reacted to another thing and said: "Kang Run, is this a disgust to Zhang Zhonghui? Li Sheng is what we chose in "Infernal Affairs". β
"But I didn't sign it in the company, I only signed a contract for the sequel to "Infernal Affairs". Gan Jing recalled.
"If he doesn't come to make a sequel, he will have to pay for breach of contract, but if we use him to shoot, Kang Run won't take advantage. Yu Jing said, "When I chose someone to play Yuan Hua before, I chose Yang Shiqiu and didn't use Li Sheng, he may have an idea in his heart, Kangrun itself is a big company, and there are enough resources, once you give any promise, it is easy to sign someone." β
Gan Jing nodded, and said without hesitation: "Look for an actor again, don't need him." β
"Default fees are reciprocal, although the weight of contractual constraints is different. Yu Jing reminded, "However, if we don't use him, we will lose hundreds of thousands." β
Gan Jing didn't feel much about the amount of compensation, but said with some confusion: "If I'm not mistaken, I should have told him that he would be one of the starring roles in the sequel, did he not trust me?"
"If you trust me, at least say hello before you get signed. Yu Jing pointed this out.
"It's a pity. Gan Jingwei sighed.
Yu Jing thought that her brother-in-law was a pity that Li Sheng's actor was talented, but looking at his expression, it didn't seem like it, well, it wasn't like it, my brother-in-law was basically reliable in his business, so would Li Sheng miss an opportunity to lead a sequel to "Infernal Affairs"?
Is it a certain promise given by Kang Run that makes Li Sheng feel that this male lead actor is not as good as the resources over there?
Unknown.
Yu Jing was not interested in contacting Li Sheng to ask for clarification, and she could see from her brother-in-law's attitude that he was even less interested.
The two studied the 60th anniversary celebration of Chinese opera on New Year's Day, and felt that such an event was still different from the invitations made during this period of time, and it was worth participating.
Yu Jing believes that "Infernal Affairs" has the arrangement of "Outstanding Alumni" awarding or stage speeches at such a close time point as the National Day file is from New Year's Day, which will give the company a good impression in front of so many seniors and peers in Chinese opera, and expand a lot of resources.
Gan Jing is relatively much simpler, he doesn't mind being a multi-layered teacher or something, the feeling of teaching and educating people is still happier according to experience, even if it doesn't work this time, there will always be opportunities in the future.
At the meeting, Gan Jing made a concluding speech to the executives present as the chairman, warmly celebrating the success of the National Day schedule of "Infernal Affairs", and gave an important commitment that this year's year-end bonus will be very generous.
In addition, as the first brother of the Beijing Blu-ray, a long-awaited nanny car has finally been landed and will be implemented as soon as possible.
The box office is good, everything is good for the company, and the plan for executive rotation at the meeting has been approved without any twists and turns, and the executives will try to make themselves as energetic and motivated as possible.
In fact, stimulated by the box office figures of "Infernal Affairs", the people of the Blu-ray culture in Beijing are as motivated as if they were beaten without supervision.
October 23, 910 million.
October 28, 931 million.
October 31, 950 million.
The closer the time is to the next gear, the more everyone cares about the box office figures, if they can, everyone in the Blu-ray culture in Beijing is willing to exchange their fat for the box office of "Infernal Affairs" to exceed one billion, it sounds like nine is not the same concept at all.
However, on November 10, "Infernal Affairs", which has been in theaters for 40 days, was announced to be released, and the box office figure was fixed at 980 million, only 0.2 billion away from the double-digit threshold.
On this day, everyone in the blue light culture in Beijing sighed - in addition to Gan Jing, in addition to the producer and the leading actors, the people and peers of other companies were relieved.
Although no matter whether "Infernal Affairs" breaks 1 billion or not, everyone is the box office champion, but the pressure brought by the two is still different, who wants to step on their own top people to stand higher?
This point does not differ from what fame and identity, at least, Deng Yunsheng, another very famous actor in the National Day file, is a little unconvinced, the movie he fought this time is "The King of Fighters", but everyone seems to be focusing on "Happy Treasure" and "Mysterious Love Letter" in the front, and in the middle and late stages, they paid attention to the rise of "Infernal Affairs", and in the final summary, even the criticism was more about criticizing the famous director Xie Jiang's "Life is Like a Dream".
If it weren't for the actor trophy at home, Deng Yunsheng would have doubted whether he had ever beaten Zhang Zhonghui's actor!
Fortunately, because of Kang Run's strong support and team considerations, Zhang Zhonghui decided to rush to the best actor at the next year's film festival after communicating with Gan Jing, so a wave of press releases was issued.
To be honest, as of November, Zhang Zhonghui's team looked at the most threatening performance level in the whole year, which was the performance of the same work - not to mention the PR and connections of other works, it is a subtle fact that it is purely performance.
However, considering the good relationship between Zhang Zhonghui and Gan Jing, considering the good cooperation between his team and the other company's announcement, considering Gan Jing's potential and his age, as well as independent film and television companies, the position of "force" in the press release is really not good for Gan Jing to top.
As a result, Deng Yunsheng, the actor who once defeated Zhang Zhonghui in the film festival and won the best actor and happened to play in this schedule, surfaced.
ββIn the actor duel in different works, Zhang Zhonghui defeated Deng Yunsheng.
- Zhang Zhonghui's 980 million vs Deng Yunsheng's 340 million!
Zhang Zhonghui's team is no stranger to the operation of the draft, and they have no sense of guilt, but what they never expected was that Deng Yunsheng, who was "forced", was actually relieved because he finally had some movement.
Drafts, forums, programs, in order to warm up the battle of public opinion for the actor in advance, Zhang Zhonghui's team has come up with the most professional attitude and operation, however, another man who is regarded as the biggest threat by them is silently suffering the nagging of the people around him at home.
"Brother Gan, next time you really can't do this, if you participate in a few more activities, this box office will definitely break 1 billion!"
"Brother-in-law, Chu Hui is right, this is a number that can make you famous in film history!"
"Brother Gan, I think so too. β
"Daddy, well, did you do something wrong? β
Gan Jing submitted the editing of "Charlotte's Troubles" for review, and then when the box office was frozen, he heard more or less nagging and regret from Chu Hui, Yu Jing, and Li Zaoyu, and finally, he responded when even his daughter followed suit.
"If it's not broken, it's not broken, fight for the next time, so what else can I do?"
Li Zaoyu couldn't stop feeling sorry, and by the way, he also used Zhan Zhan to express comfort: "Yes, I'm afraid we have to wait for the sequel of "Infernal Affairs" to come out, Brother Gan, let's work hard next time!"
