The journalists were enthusiastic.

I'm mentally exhausted.

After getting off the plane and constantly being interviewed by reporters with a little mania, Gan Jing could only express his attitude with the most sincere expression and tone.

"Thank you, thank you, I just got off the plane, I really can't hold it, my legs are numb. ”

"Next time, next time, we'll occupy the airport parking lot for too long. ”

"We also have to pay attention to social resources. ”

Gan Jing repeatedly declined the reporters' invitations to continue the interview, and finally arrived at home at 11 p.m.

At this time, Gan Xuesi was coaxed to sleep by her aunt, and the lights in her neighbor Xie Xin's house were also dimmed, and she should have rested, but the living room of Gan Jing's house was already in full swing.

Gan Jing didn't sleep on the flight, stood in the parking lot for a long time, and instinctively took a nap on the way back but still had to understand the whole story, so he was now completely strong enough to greet the company's executives.

"He Yue, bring me a cup of strong tea, and it can also lower the fire. ”

"What are you drinking? There are a lot of liquors and drinks. ”

Gan Jing took off his coat and sat on the sofa tiredly and yawned.

Zhang Tianshun, the director of publicity and distribution, immediately said: "Boss, you know everything, right?"

"Almost, I flipped through all kinds of news on the road, and in summary, the people of Plaza Asia and the cinema chain had dinner and chatted about filming, and the time for rebates filmed the process. Gan Jing took a sip of tea comfortably, "Then, this candid behavior was discovered, and there was a quarrel on both sides, and it was very strange to make trouble on the table, right?"

Zhang Tianshun nodded: "The general development is like this, there are some parts in the middle, according to the news channels on my side, Uniasia may not be too unanimous within it, Jessica is the president of Uniasia in China, and this time there is a Peter who belongs to the American side......"

Gan Jing waved his hand and interrupted: "Well, I know, anyway, it is nothing more than the arrogance of Americans meeting the arrogance of our domestic theaters." ”

Vice President Li Lang is a newly promoted executive, and he is a little careful to say the language that has been organized for a long time: "The United States does not trust our domestic distribution, they have done a good job in Japan and South Korea, and they still want to control the dominance when they come to China, even if Kangrun is introduced as a joint venture because of the failure of "Black Fall". ”

"In terms of theaters, they control the film schedule, although the reputation of movies in different channels has weakened in the past two years, but the strength brought by the past few years still makes them as arrogant as ever. ”

Gan Jing glanced at the middle-aged Li Lang and nodded: "It's normal to want to take the lead, but you actually do something secretly shooting, is this to do internal information filing with an American company? ”

He shook his head again and again, only to feel that there was too much absurdity in such a sudden event.

Zhang Tianshun said with a smile: "Boss, didn't you say it last time, the first batch of films to test the water in China, it is not uncommon for anything to appear, anyway, "Fire Ants" and the theater chain are bad news for us." ”

Chu Hui was also very tired today, she took a sip of the espresso He Yue made for herself, and said: "I communicated with Brother Gan on the way, don't be too optimistic, think about it, how did we go from low-ranking films to high-ranking films in the first place? ”

"Since the imported films are going to be put in above, the first batch of films will not look good if they are not scheduled. ”

A few people in the living room nodded slowly, as the executives of Beijing Blu-ray, they are also the most loyal supporters of the company's culture, why have they won the high box office in recent years? Why have they won the love of the audience?

It's the quality of the movie.

Everyone here is extremely convinced that the quality of the film itself can work miracles.

"I have already expressed the company's attitude to many reporters at the airport before, and we are not a party to this matter, so we don't need to be too anxious to say anything. Chu Hui reminded, "The reporters came here just to see if they could stir up more waves." ”

Zhang Tianshun thought for a while: "According to the usual handling method, the introduction of a cinema manager to take responsibility will be over, but in the video filmed, he is still the executive vice president of Jingle Cinema Line, the level is quite high, and his family is also a shareholder of the cinema chain." ”

Chu Hui asked: "The problem is that the reason why the rebate is an unspoken rule is because it can't be taken on the surface, and it is an obvious mistake when it is taken, and Jingle can't deny it in this kind of thing." ”

"I mean, Jingle probably won't take it too seriously, maybe it's just a flirtatious apology, which may also cause a ripple effect in Uniasia. Zhang Tianshun explained, "Look at the way they hold a media conference and don't let go......"

Gan Jing laughed: "If you want me to say, the people of Uniasia may not know if there is a next imported film, so it's a big deal to pat your ass and leave." ”

Li Lang was slightly surprised: "No, we have such a big domestic market, we won't make a decision so easily, right?"

"You have to be able to taste the meat to be reluctant, and you won't feel the pain of the meat before you eat the first bite. Gan Jing shook his head, "Look, let's make another announcement within the company, don't make any remarks on this matter, let's take a look." ”

"Okay, understood. ”

Everyone responded.

Gan Jing casually chatted a few more words about the company's own plan, and then he could no longer hold his spirits, and drove the company's executives back to rest.

This night, Gan Jing slept very soundly, but the public opinion of such an unspoken rule of cinema rebates has a tendency to shift from film and television entertainment media to more mainstream media.

The news on the theatrical chain alone may not be so eye-catching, but the factors of the first batch of imported films from the United States to test the water make things interesting, and remarks from different angles have also jumped out.

After Gan Jing got up, he first refused more media interview requests, and then happily watched the excitement of public opinion, but when he saw half of it, he suddenly felt that it was wrong.

"This matter is very messy, as an enthusiastic melon eater, I want to help you analyze a wave, as the saying goes, look at the essence through the phenomenon, ignore the unspoken rules of the theater first, ignore the mentally retarded operation of Uniasia, let's see who benefits the most from this matter?"

"Guys, Uniasia is going to release "Fire Ants" against "The Martian" during the Spring Festival, you may not know how important "The Martian" is to the Beijing Blu-ray, it is the first work of the "Five-Year Science Fiction Plan", everything is difficult at the beginning!"

"There is no doubt that Beijing Blu-ray is the biggest beneficiary of this incident!"

"Will Beijing Blu-ray make "Fire Ants" get the high-ranking film smoothly? Gan Jing will let the domestic cinema chain negotiate with Uniasia Film and Television smoothly?"

"No, it's impossible!"

"This matter is so bizarre exposed, a discerning person will know at a glance that it was arranged by the Beijing Blu-ray!"

"In a word: there is an internal ghost, terminate the transaction!"

"I strongly suspect that Jessica, the president of Uniasia, is the comrade of Beijing Blu-ray installed in the United States Maine Pictures!"

"Willing to respect this person, the depth of his scheming and the ruthlessness of his means can be seen!"

"Think about it again, are ordinary people who can make "Infernal Affairs"?"

Gan Jing was really shocked when he saw such an analysis post on the forum that "looked at the essence through the phenomenon", and poured this dirty water on his face one after another! This is not enough to splash and dig mud from the ditch and mix it in the water and continue to splash it!

Is there a heavenly principle?

Is there humanity?

After several hesitations, Gan Jing clicked on the reply under this post.

"It makes sense, the Beijing Blu-ray is the head snake of the Spring Festival stalls, who will do it if it doesn't do it?"

"Gangou is a hawk and a wolf, and you can see from his music that he is ruthless, and he has a wave. ”

"The Martian is undoubtedly the beneficiary, maybe not the mastermind, but it's definitely a ghost. ”

"The entertainment industry is dirty, how clean can the blue light in Beijing be? Even if the boss is called Gan Jing, it is not clean!"

Gan Jing briefly made a visual inspection, and 70% of the people in the comments thought that the analysis of this post was reasonable, and they all felt that they and the company had made small moves.

If you do it, forget it......

Gan Jing closed the forum, thinking left and right still felt angry, he thought for half an hour that he couldn't explain himself in a large paragraph, that would be easy to be too antagonistic, and he should use symbolic things to express his grievances.

Two minutes later, Gan Jing posted a story with only pictures and no text: a picture of a black swan in a lake.

What does this mean?

It represents an unexpected event with a significant impact that is difficult to predict.

Five minutes later, Gan Jing clicked on the comments under his account and saw the most liked.

"Look at the picture, Gan Jing has admitted that he did it himself, people like him who are directors have hearts, and they like to use metaphors and the like, everyone knows the term black swan event, it is very simple, and it will not be what Gan Jing wants to express. ”

"Specifically, we have to look at this picture, many analysis posts say that Gan Jing has a black hand, do you think, Gan Jing, a person who can fight with Xinyu head-on, will he be afraid to admit it? ”

"Look again, what does it mean that the water of this lake is so muddy? It means that he is the one who stirs it up. Finally, look at the sunset on the picture, where is the sunset? The meaning is obvious, the sunset of the West, the twilight, this is Gan Jing's contempt for the Western film "Fire Ants". ”

Gan Jing stared at this long comment on reading comprehension for a long time, he sighed, slowly selected the "report" option, and turned off the picture above.

However, a minute later, Gan Jing still felt a little angry, and re-logged in and ran to the comments to make a reply, spitting fragrantly: sand sculpture.

At this point, Gan Jing decided not to look at social media and online forums anymore, it is really easy to get darker and darker, and there are also sand sculpture netizens who don't know whether they are receiving salaries or pure enthusiasm to drive the rhythm frantically.

This once made him a little trance, could it be that the company arranged someone to knock on a dull stick?

At noon, Zhang Tianshun, the director of publicity and distribution, called and reminded him carelessly: "Boss, why did you post the platform news and delete it?"

"Oh, I thought it was misleading, so I just deleted it. Gan Jing was a little depressed.

"It's useless to delete.,Netizens will take screenshots.,After deleting, I saw that there was another way of saying in the forum.,Boss, you deleted it because you were weak-minded.。 Zhang Tianshun laughed for a while.

"Well, I know, you can deal with it, I won't say anything. Gan Jing was very helpless, it was like the pot came from the sky, "Is there any progress this morning?"

Zhang Tianshun reported: "Jingle Cinema Line will probably issue an apology announcement, saying that they adhere to the principle of fairness and justice, but the vice president may only be a warning and a penalty for deducting bonuses." ”

He paused for a few seconds and continued: "There is still unconfirmed news, the Film Bureau has called both sides, and it may be necessary to suppress public opinion and turn the big thing into a small one, if this is the case, public opinion in this area will soon calm down." ”

"Okay, pay attention, and don't delay the release of "The Martian". Gan Jing still felt a little depressed in his heart.

The phone hangs up.

Gan Jing was a little bored in his heart.

If you want to talk about how to dispel boredom, music is a very good choice, neighbor Xie Xin, singing well, and good looks, this is a good choice.

Gan Jing just wanted to go to the yard to shout, but the neighbor suddenly heard the phone ring again that he had just hung up.

This time, it was not Zhang Tianshun, but a call from the Film Bureau.

Soon, the combination of premonition and reality, the so-called "big things into small ones" turned out to be on their own side - although the wording is very euphemistic, but the inner meaning is to let their side not bring hot public opinion.

Gan Jing agreed after a simple explanation, and for the first time had strong doubts about his image in the minds of others.

Isn't he the actor with the best acting skills in other people's hearts?

Is the actor trophy fake? No matter how bad it is, there is still a trophy for the best director.

Gan Jing fell into deep confusion.

With such confusion, he dispelled the idea of listening to the queen singing, and chose to fill his empty heart with work.

Once people are focused, it is easy to feel that time flies quickly.

One afternoon passed, 24 hours after the "rebate" public opinion occurred, Gan Jing opened the Internet forum again, and it was easy to find that the heat of this matter had cooled down rapidly, and the posts that were sporadically refreshed would soon disappear.

As soon as the official makes a move, we will know if there is one.

Gan Jing's mood was slightly complicated, and after browsing the forum calmly, he was about to call Chu Hui again to talk about the submission of "The Martian" for review.

At half past seven in the evening, Zhang Tianshun, the director of publicity and distribution, called for the second time to report the situation.

"Boss, there's not so good news for you. Zhang Tianshun's tone was a little strange.

Gan Jing said strangely: "Didn't the above not allow you to talk about this? Which newspaper is the paper media that responds slowly?"

"No, the front page of the line, boss, you're on the New York Times. Zhang Tianshun wanted to laugh a little, "Next to your photo is the black swan picture you posted in the morning." ”

"This ...... What the hell does this concern me?" Gan Jing was stunned.

"Boss, I really can't do it. Zhang Tianshun sighed, "If you want to wear the crown, you must accept its blackness." ”
