Chapter 499: I'm the Lord
The end of the billion-dollar box office celebration banquet seemed to be a clarion call for a counterattack, and Beijing Blu-ray and its partners have accelerated the progress of the project.
In the past two years, Beijing Blu-ray has always had the habit of releasing films overseas in Asia, sometimes making more money, sometimes making less, and the sales of Blu-ray discs have been limited to the traditional markets of Japan and South Korea, and they have always been quite good.
Because of this situation, Gan Jing and Chu Hui have recently considered spinning off the Blu-ray department into a subsidiary, but there are many factors that need to be carefully considered.
In addition, the newly appointed special effects supervisor Xu Feng has built a rough department structure, which will work with Brilliant Special Effects, Zhang Zhonghui Studio, and Shancheng Culture to promote the "Martian" film project.
The director of this drama is set to be Xiao Xie director Xie Yu as the main director, Xia Yan as the deputy director, and the special effects are mainly brilliant special effects, supplemented by the Russian CGF studio, and then two domestic special effects studios are found to jointly create it.
As for the starring role, Gan Jing was not very interested, and Zhang Zhonghui was not too interested, so Gan Jing persuaded Zhang Zhonghui to be interested and successfully decided that the famous actor would play the leading role, and he himself would make an impromptu cameo.
In this way, the overall framework of the first film of the five-year science fiction project, "The Martian", is roughly fixed, and the follow-up work is to fill in the satisfactory parts in this framework and polish it into a complete work.
Relatively speaking, Gan Jing always feels that he doesn't use or uses less special effects to make him feel very cool acting, and once he uses more, the actor is like being turned into parts and placed on a conveyor belt for people to process.
Of course, this is just a small feeling in Gan Jing's heart, he can go if he can't choose, now, isn't there Lao Zhang who can ensure quality and quantity?
If all goes well, this "The Martian" can meet the audience Gan Xuesi at the end of the Gregorian calendar or the Lunar New Year.
At that time, the little girl will enjoy an imagination of a planet that can be seen in the Earth's telescope.
Gan Jing was not excited to create a sci-fi film, he was secretly happy when he thought of his daughter's surprised expression.
"Hey, Brother Gan, what are you laughing at?"
"Hey, hey?"
In the office, Yu Jing looked down and flipped through the documents and was about to continue her work statement, when she found that her brother-in-law was sitting behind the desk and smirking, looking a little abnormal.
"Oh, oh, I'm thinking about the box office after the release of The Martian. Gan Jing returned to his senses and explained.
Yu Jinghu was suspicious, but just reminded: "Sci-fi films are not easy to do, and domestic viewing habits don't seem to have a tendency in this regard, in addition, this morning, Xinyu officially announced that it would join forces with Kangrun to create sci-fi." ”
Gan Jing nodded and said, "This is a matter. ”
Yu Jing frowned and said: "Yes, if they put the movie in front of us first, in case the quality is very poor, it will also affect the audience of our movie." ”
"Huh, can it be like this?" Gan Jing was stunned for a moment, not considering this direction.
"I don't shy away from speculating on them with the greatest malice. Yu Jing said coldly, "If we are scheduled to release it on January 1st, and they put the whole bad movie in December, what will happen to the viewing tendency in a short period of time?"
Gan Jing thought about it again and again, but still felt unlikely: "It won't be so stupid, right?"
"The subjective possibility is small, but objectively what if you really make a bad movie?" Isn't that the same effect?" Yu Jing analyzed, "Besides, if we put it behind us, wouldn't the good quality of our film be equivalent to attracting traffic for their sci-fi films of the same theme?"
Gan Jing thought left and right, the possibility of this bad movie ......
"You've been thinking about it a lot. He said sincerely, "I just thought about how to shoot and edit this film well." Well, drainage or not, I'd love to see the cake come to fruition. ”
"Well, the division of labor is different, and it would be a dereliction of duty not to think about it. Yu Jing said lightly.
Gan Jing glanced at her sister-in-law, and the topic changed: "Are you adapting to the new position?"
"It's okay, not as busy as before. Yu Jing said, "Anyway, the Blu-ray side has also been separated from Yu Qian since he came, and although the release of overseas movies is cold, it has become a small person in charge." ”
Gan Jing smiled dumbly: "It still sounds a little complaining, well, Blu-ray has a new deputy who has performed well under your subordinates before, isn't it also your faction?
Yu Jing thought a little and raised her eyebrows slightly: "I don't have complaints, I'm just a brick in the boss's hand, and I will contribute wherever I need to." ”
"Mr. Yu said seriously, in the eyes of the rest of the company, you are my own person. Gan Jing smiled, "Otherwise, who else? Isn't it just to fight for more resources in which piece you go to?"
Yu Jing was stunned, and was silent for a few seconds, which was considered a tacit acquiescence to this fact.
Gan Jing smiled and chatted with his sister-in-law for a few more words before meeting the next contestant in the office, Xu Feng, the special effects director.
In just over a month, the meat on Xu Feng's face has an extra layer of delicious moisture.
"Mr. Gan, let's talk about the bad news first. Xu Feng said solemnly after greeting twice, "Our request with the Aviation Research Institute has been denied. ”
"Didn't you say you were willing to provide funds? This should be a good thing, right?" Gan Jing said.
"Having said that, this is half of the bad news, and the other half is that they accepted the sponsorship from Xinyu. Xu Feng frowned.
"Huh? It's still a big company with a lot of resources, enough relationships, and a big card. Gan Jing smiled and sighed.
Xu Feng nodded, he must have contacted professional institutions earlier than his opponent, and it will be a great charm of science fiction special effects to have a rigorous imagination on the basis of reality, and now it proves that the news of Xinyu is very well-informed and the means are also very powerful.
Gan Jing thought for a moment: "It's not in the way, after all, movies are just an art higher than life, in this regard, one can refer to the aerospace models at home and abroad, and the other is to consider contacting domestic universities, and even, the relevant science popularization can also be linked to colleges and universities, you can communicate with Zhang Tianshun about this matter." ”
"If the institute doesn't accept sponsorship, the college won't and won't accept it, right? This kind of win-win thing can't be blocked by Xinyu. "Gan Jing's vision is very broad, and he is not limited to the direction he has studied before.
"I'm afraid it's not rigorous enough. Xu Feng said.
"To be rigorous, but also to be romantic, making movies is not really about scientific research, we have to have a guideline. Gan Jing looked at Xu Feng and said seriously, "Take me as the main and use it for me." ”
Xu Feng's heart moved slightly, and he wrote down this sentence, not only the current situation faced by the science fiction project, but also the challenges he faced from CGF to Beijing Blu-ray, focusing on his own professional knowledge and borrowing company resources should also be the criterion for doing things by himself.
"Mr. Gan, understand. ”
