Chapter 732: Script
The plan of the year lies in the spring.
At the beginning of the new year, even though they were on annual leave at home, many employees of the Beijing company were still in a bit of a commotion, and the existence of the official website of Huaxia Film Online made the theater data transparent, and everyone could see the box office of the work.
"The Moon" was 67 million on the first day, and "Love at Dusk and Sunset" was 52 million on the first day, and the two films ranked fourth or fifth in the Spring Festival stalls, which is the transformation of comprehensive pre-sales.
The former is a low-cost sci-fi, but it is still not as refreshing as the latter, and according to the data forecast, there is no problem with the profitability of the two films.
It's just that the box office of "The Martian" during the Spring Festival last year was 215 million, which is more than the results of the two movies this year combined, and the comparison between the two is a bit uncomfortable.
As the company's gold medal screenwriter, screenwriter Lin, who has never been afraid of revisions, refreshes the data from time to time when he wakes up on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
At eight o'clock, the data is updated.
Screenwriter Lin was depressed.
Both scripts have been polished by him, especially the former has been shooting with the team.
Although the last meeting of the year ago had the expectation of this achievement, but after really seeing it, there is still a little loss, the Spring Festival file, this is the Spring Festival file! It has been praised by the media as a Spring Festival file brought up by the Beijing Blu-ray!
Screenwriter Lin was lying in bed and had been uncomfortable until 10 o'clock in the morning before making a decision, and the first thing he did when he went back to work was to suggest to Brother Gan that he would be able to do comedy during the Spring Festival next year!
If Brother Gan doesn't agree, then he will die in front of him!
As a writer, screenwriter Lin straightened up and added a tragic scene to himself in bed.
Within five minutes, the phone rang suddenly.
Screenwriter Lin grabbed it casually and hurriedly pressed it to answer: "Hey, Brother Gan, Happy New Year." ”
"Well, okay, okay, when are you going back to Beijing?" Gan Jing's calm voice came.
"I'm going to be on the fifth day of junior high school, Brother Gan, is there something going on? I'm going to die!" the second half of Screenwriter Lin suddenly became sonorous.
Gan Jing was stunned when he heard such a statement, and after a while, the voice continued to come out of the earpiece: "It's nothing, I'm just going to give you a new job, about Liu Peichuan and Qiu Ran's new drama script, I have already written the synopsis of the story, and I will send you an email later, and you will publish a script." ”
Screenwriter Lin was overjoyed in his heart, and at the same time he was admiring, this is Brother Gan, in just one day, he must have reflected on his previous strategy!
"Brother Gan, what is the story, what is the title of the script?" Screenwriter Lin knew that the boss had a habit, although it was all a synopsis or half a story for himself to polish, he set the name.
""Nobody", there are still a few supporting roles missing, the end of the story line must be done seriously, not anticlimactic, I will write in the email when I ask for it, and the first draft will be handed in before the 22nd of this month. ”
Screenwriter Lin thought for a while and responded: "Okay, no problem, I'll leave for the day after tomorrow, so it's convenient to revise and communicate." ”
"It's okay to be video-based. Gan Jing said, "Let's spend more time with my family during the Chinese New Year." ”
"The company is my second home!" Screenwriter Lin was righteous.
Gan Jing: "......"
End of call.
Screenwriter Lin felt that the boss must have been moved by his sincerity.
Before receiving the email, he refreshed the film reviews of his company's two new films, "Moon" has a score of 8.6, and "Love at Dusk and Sunset" has a score of 8.7, which is a slightly comforting score.
However, the score is so high, you should go and see it!
Screenwriter Lin continued to brush up on the comments of netizens, and when he got up, he put on a vest and went into battle, and only after the two accounts were blocked did he click on the boss's email.
"Huh, the heroine of a high paralysis? This kind of performance is a big challenge for Qiu Ran, why not use Li Zaoyu?
"Hmm, Liu Peichuan plays a thief? It's a little unimaginable, does there have to be a big change in style?"
"Black humor, language characteristics, Qiu Ran is a native of Chengdu. ”
Screenwriter Lin extracted the key information, considered the synopsis of the story on the email, and fell into deep thought.
On the other side in the capital, Gan Jing looked at the heavy snow on the second day of the new year, and was a little puzzled by the state of the company's screenwriters.
He shook his head, organized the language, and called Zhang Zhonghui.
Although he often ridicules him, the box office results of the second part of the "Five-Year Science Fiction Plan" "Moon" still have to comfort him, Gan Jing likes Lao Zhang's performance in this movie very much, and the performance level and subtle changes are in place.
In fact, the current score also proves that there is no problem with word-of-mouth, and it is purely positioning and not biased towards business.
This call took longer, Gan Jing waited until Ersi came over to call for dinner before hanging up, and then saw the news from Yu Jing, the box office figures in the European market have to wait to come out, purely from the perspective of the effect in the theater, it is okay.
Gan Jing replied with a congratulatory text message, a work that makes normal profits in European theaters is already quite good, as for China, the box office of 6700+5200 with a total of 119 million on the first day of the Lunar New Year is not as good as last year, but the cost of "The Martian" is higher than these two.
Some of the emotions that appeared in the company were nothing more than that everyone was used to occupying the forefront of the schedule results, which was immediately uncomfortable as soon as they fell behind, if they were all like this, other companies would have to be disbanded, so Gu Anjiang would not have to jump from the upper floor?
Gan Jing thought so, and received a call from Cao Cao after not thinking for a while.
"Director Gan, this year's Spring Festival stalls are not surnamed Gan, and the blue light in Beijing still needs to continue to work hard. Gu Anjiang made this phone call, and it was funny instead of making people angry.
Gan Jing wondered: "Mr. Gu, old Gu, the comedy that ranked first this year belongs to your family?"
"No, sixth. Gu Anjiang replied briskly.
Gan Jing was surprised, his side seemed to be the fourth or fifth?
"Then what do you have to be arrogant about, and call me?"
"In the same industry, companies should still be closer to each other. Gu Anjiang sounded in a good mood, "Although we had a little misunderstanding before, there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future." ”
How should we respond to such remarks?
Gan Jing only thought for a second to have an answer, and he hung up the phone directly.
The mobile phone vibrated unyieldingly, as if Gu Anjiang was shouting silently, but he didn't call again for only a few seconds, and the other party still knew something interesting.
Gan Jing thought back to the scene of the first time he saw this person, and he really didn't know how he fell to this point, oh yes, I forgot to ask a question just now, whether the last reporter interview and Internet public opinion were dominated by the other party.
The second day of the Lunar New Year passed in this way in the phone call with different people, and Gan Jing is different from previous years this year, and there are more things to prepare and people to contact.
