"Yu Jing, I just took down the character Xu Qingyi of "Gone with the Wind". ”

"Oh. ”

"Oh, it's the male number two I talked about last time. ”

"I know, I took it down? Congratulations. ”

At the dark and windy dinner table for a month, Gan Jing seemed to inadvertently mention to his sister-in-law Yu Jing the staged victory after the role audition, but he didn't see the expected reaction.

Gan Jing glanced at his daughter who was eating obediently with her head down, turned to the side, and said to Gan Xuesi with a "cough": "Second thought, do you know what I have done in the past few days?"

Gan Xuesi took a big sip of porridge, thought for a while and said, "Daddy, did you tell me not to talk during dinner?"

Gan Jing smiled with relief: "Yes, I just tried to test you." ”

Gan Xuesi didn't speak and continued to eat, she didn't seem to care about her father's temptation, more like she didn't want to know what he had done in the past few days.

The window of the balcony was not closed, and the moon was dark and the wind was high, and the wind that wanted to rain blew in and blew on Ganjing's heart.

He glanced at his sister-in-law who didn't know what he was thinking with a solemn face, and then looked at his daughter who was concentrating on eliminating dinner, and he didn't know where to start with the amusement in his heart, because of this role, Liu Jina, the producer of Yingjia, was looking for two stars and their company's senior management to accompany her, even if she refused, she was still a little reluctant to give up, and now these two are really good, and she doesn't care about the results she gets......

But after thinking about it, I didn't tell them about this process before, so it was a normal reaction.

Eat silently, sleep silently, a dinner with only an inexplicable atmosphere and no chatting is over.

When it was time for Gan Jing to sit on the sofa and watch cartoons, he knew why his sister-in-law was chatting with a solemn face and even perfunctory.

"In the past few days, I have learned about the situation and contacted the scheduling managers of the two theater lines. Yu Jing's solemn face was a little worried, "The 10% box office share was first proposed by them, and their attitude is ......."

Yu Jing thought about the appropriate words: "The attitude is relatively tough." ”

"Which two theaters, how many screens?" Gan Jing asked for key information.

According to the statistics of the middle of last year, Jinrun and Xingle ranked 4th and 7th in China, and the total number of screens added up to almost 1,700 screens. Yu Jing has worked hard and remembers the data very clearly, "The total number of screens in the country is about 14,000, and these two account for 12%." ”

Gan Jing also nodded a little seriously: "That does have a great impact." ”

Although the number of screens is not directly linked to the box office, you have to consider the city and region where the theater is located, but the correlation between the two is still relatively high, rough point of view, a work that is expected to have a box office of 100 million is likely to be less than 10 million, if it is increased by an order of magnitude, it will be the impact of 100 million.

Gan Jing pondered for a moment and asked, "Did they give a reason? If I remember correctly, the rebate of "Love Before Dawn" is only 3% to 4%, and it is a bit wrong to suddenly double it. ”

Yu Jing was silent and shook her head, she was really exhausted in the past few days, the attitude of the theater managers was unexpectedly arrogant, and the communication about the rebate was almost no progress.

Gan Jing smiled when he saw his sister-in-law like this: "Thinking about it from another angle, there is still 88% of the number of screens is no problem." In this way, don't be in a hurry to communicate with the theater chain from tomorrow, you can ask if other movies with release plans have also encountered this situation, in addition, Lao Zhang's Kang Run attaches great importance to movies, although they do not participate in the publicity, but the relationship between us is not bad, they are big companies, and they are more well-informed. ”

Yu Jing nodded and said, "These two theaters are shouting out 10% rebates, and the other theaters are at least 2% and at most 6%. ”

"I guess they have communication in private. Gan Jing pondered and said, "This kind of situation must be very complicated, we have too little information, and I don't have any judgment for the time being, you can ask more." ”

Gan Jing saw the sister-in-law nodding and said: "Don't be too nervous, even if you can't talk in the end, it's not your reason, and the more complicated and mixed the interests of multiple parties, the easier it is to divide, and the fortress is always broken from the inside." ”

Yu Jing nodded again.

"I have to talk to Lao Zhang, there are negative factors at the box office, so I have to consider making some money back from the awards. Gan Jing said a way to deal with it, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, whether it's the theater chain, including the publicity and distribution mentioned earlier, they all have to fall on the quality of the work in the end." I have faith in Infernal Affairs. ”

Yu Jing nodded heavily in the end, but her face was still solemn, at least 12% of the impact of the number of screens, this is not a problem that one person, one work, or one company can fight.

Even, she felt that this matter was not easy to solve even the actor Zhang Zhonghui and Kangrun Company, and she deeply felt the strength of the other party's right to speak when communicating with the theater managers these days.

This "Infernal Affairs" starring Zhang Zhonghui is good information, how can she not use it as a bargaining chip?

But it had little effect.

It's hard, it's hard.

……

The drama "Infernal Affairs" is jointly invested by three companies: Beijing Blu-ray Culture, Hong Kong Oriental Film and Television, and Shancheng Culture Film and Television, so, strictly speaking, the publicity and release of this film are completely unrelated to Kangrun Film and Television.

However, in the first drama after Zhang Zhonghui's comeback, his team has help to prepare and contact resources, but even so, when it comes to the rebate required for the release of the theater, it has nothing to do with Zhang Zhonghui.

Gan Jing took into account such a factor, and asked Zhang Zhonghui to come to the company for a boxed lunch because he was talking about the film clip and thanking him for helping to get the second male lead in "Gone with the Wind".

It was said that it was a boxed lunch, and it also had eight dishes, two soups, and a bottle of wine.

When Zhang Zhonghui came out of the editing room at noon, he saw the combination of lunch box + goblet + wine and felt a little crying and laughing, which was not very decent.

"Gan Jing, you thank me like this?" Zhang Zhonghui said angrily.

"I didn't drink a drop of wine before my annual leave in Hong Kong, and now I took a bottle of wine to thank you. Gan Jing only used one reason to make Zhang Zhonghui suddenly feel satisfied.

No one has me, and he has a face!

"Are you not mentioning your daughter?" Zhang Zhonghui still joked with Gan Jing's previous reason.

Gan Jing smiled, nodded his satisfaction with Chu Hui, who was about to close the door when he left the conference room, and explained to Zhang Zhonghui: "She is particularly resistant to me drinking liquor. ”

Gan Jing opened the wine with his own hands, poured two glasses, raised one glass first and said: "I came back in a hurry when I finished the finale, and now Brother Zhang is so interesting to help me, don't say anything, I'll mention a glass first." ”

Grunt.

Wine is simply juice to drink!

Gan Jing resisted the desire to drink another drink, sat down and said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, sit, don't look at it as a box lunch, Chu Hui is carefully prepared, and the taste should be okay." ”

Zhang Zhonghui sat down with vigilance, he suddenly reacted a little, Gan Jing made an appointment to watch the video editing in the morning, but this will be in the empty conference room with the two of him, and it is "Brother Zhang" and "a cup", this is something!

"Gan Jing, if you have anything, just say it, don't come to it, I can't stand it. Zhang Zhonghui used chopsticks to clip a lion's head, and felt that the taste was really good.

"What can I do, my little family. Gan Jing smiled, "I don't want to think about how hard Brother Zhang will have to work when it is announced, I feel a little sorry not to go." ”

Zhang Zhonghui snorted slightly, he now knows the style of this product, this Gan Jing is not the kind of person who shows his arrogance, but he is not sure what is going on in his bones.

"Gan Jing, I found that your editing speed is really fast, you be careful, I don't want a good film to be ruined by you so roughly. Zhang Zhonghui turned the topic to today's business.

"Cut it out for you to see. Gan Jing took a bite of the dish, looked at Zhang Zhonghui and said, "Brother Zhang, you also know that my company has not been established for a long time, so I want to ask, what is the relationship between Kangrun and the cinema chain?"

Huh?

Zhang Zhonghui must be sure in his heart that if this little brother doesn't talk about things all the time, he won't be at ease eating.

"Kang Run, every time a movie is released, I have to have something to say to the theater ......"

Knock! Knock!

A knock on the door interrupted Mr. Zhang's slow words.

Immediately afterwards, there was a noise outside, "I'm a shadow ......", "It's not good to ......", "I didn't ...... when I called".

Knock!

The knock on the door is like a bang!

"Gan Jing, don't hide inside and keep quiet! I know you're in the conference room!"

"You have the ability to get me! Why don't you have the ability to open the door! Open the door, open the door, open the door!"

A clear sound as if he was sticking his mouth to the frosted door came in, which stunned Zhang Zhonghui and Gan Jing.

Zhang Zhonghui looked at Gan Jing, his mind flowed, and he understood! The theater chain just mentioned was not the right thing to talk about when he invited himself to dinner today! This Gan Jing wanted to let himself help him with public relations!

"Gan Jing, what happened?" Zhang Zhonghui asked tentatively.

Gan Jing was a little dazed: "What's the matter?"

The next moment, he reacted, strode to the door and pulled it open, and there was a woman who had a relationship with him who wanted to rush in.

"Gan Jing, be forgiving and forgiving! Where did I offend you!" This woman is Liu Jina, the producer of Yingjia who contacted not long ago.

Gan Jing glanced at her and saw a few entangled strangers and people from his own company behind her, and sighed secretly, this is really not up to the small door and small household he said, don't you know that it is called the security guard of the building?

"Producer Liu, what are you doing? You didn't make an appointment, did you? Directly come to my company? Is this how Yingjia's people do things?" Gan Jing blocked the door, his expression and tone were generally flat, and he grasped the name of the other company.

Liu Jina sneered: "Yingjia, I came today to see what kind of character Gan Jing is, and I want to ask us face-to-face what kind of enmity we have, so I killed Yingjia so much that Yingjia quit me?"

Dismissed?

Gan Jing was slightly stunned and denied: "This has nothing to do with me." ”

"Who does that have to do with that?" Liu Jina raised her eyebrows and asked pungently.

Gan Jing asked rhetorically: "Then I have to ask yourself, why did Yingjia quit you? Is it to eat and take cards or is it internal and external collusion?"

These words were just roughly said for bad reasons, however, Liu Jina's face was even more cloudy.

She stared at Gan Jing's eyes and said hatefully: "Sure enough, it's you! Gan Jing, do you think it's amazing to hug Zhang Zhonghui's thigh?"

Gan Jing's face was a little strange, and he turned sideways: "Please open your thighs to make an acceptance speech." ”

Zhang Zhonghui will understand what is going on inside, this is not the same as the gossip he imagined, mainly because the producer used a word "get" to make people think about it.

"It's not him who hugs my thigh, it's me who hugs his thigh. Zhang Zhonghui's tone was very gentle and face-saving.

Liu Jina stood at the door and was always blocked by Gan Jing, only to see that it was the actor Zhang Zhonghui inside, and the cruel words she just wanted to release "make you can't get along in the circle" were unspeakable.

However, despite hearing Zhang Zhonghui say this, Liu Jina still feels that this is nothing more than proof that Zhang Zhonghui is a thigh that is hugged by Ganjing!

"Okay, the mountains don't turn around, we'll see. Liu Jina didn't speak to Zhang Zhonghui, so she said the last word to Gan Jing and turned around and left.

Several strangers outside also turned to leave.

Gan Jing waved his hand at Chu Hui to show that it was okay, he closed the door and turned his face to Zhang Zhonghui and said, "Is it so real? Just let me walk and see? Heaven and earth conscience, Lao Zhang, when I told you, I was just changing the producer, right? But you didn't say such a dismissal, do you mean?"

Zhang Zhonghui shook his head in denial, thought about it, took out the phone and said, "I'll ask, otherwise this meal will not be good." ”

Gan Jing had no choice but to sit down and enjoy the food first, he could eat well, anyway, he knew in his heart that it was really not what he meant.

After a while, Zhang Zhonghui's phone call was called, and the matter was basically clear, Yingjia Company did replace Liu Jina's position as a producer in "Gone with the Wind" because of Kang Run's request, but the subsequent dismissal was because someone else in the company reported that she had interests with a popular actor, and there were behaviors that damaged the company in the previous project.

This kind of dismissal is just in time for the replacement turmoil, so there is a high probability that Gan Jing was misunderstood and carried the black pot.

Gan Jing sighed when he listened, if he could, then he would definitely propose to resign her, otherwise wouldn't he be in vain!

"Got it, Lao Zhang, let's get down to business. Gan Jing didn't have the mood to brew emotions after such a play, and said directly, "Our company's contact with the theater line is a 10% rebate that was shouted out, can Kangrun take a line to talk to the theater chain? 10% is too exaggerated." ”

Zhang Zhonghui's mood of being quite happy immediately faded, he raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: "10%?

"Kim Yun and Kyo Raku. Gan Jing replied, "A total of 1,700 screens." ”

"Not a lot. Zhang Zhonghui commented, "This is because the filmmaker is not strong enough and wants to take a bite of meat." ”

"This one is a little too wide. Gan Jing spread his hands and said dissatisfiedly, "This is not an unspoken rule, the open fire is going to rob the money." ”

Zhang Zhonghui was silent, this is not as simple as changing the producer, it is really difficult.
