Chapter 279: Mutual Understanding
Gan Jing felt that he might have underestimated the pressure that a work with excellent box office results could put on others.
He tried to change his position and understand each other, if he was a student in school and had no box office at all, there was a director and leading actor of a crew standing in front of him, he had actor-level acting skills, a box office of hundreds of millions, and an independent film and television company......
Perhaps the opportunity to change your destiny is just around the corner.
Well, the gaffe of the Chinese opera students is easier to understand, like Yao Tiannan, she is the school flower, but the label of the school flower does not mean more resources, that is, there will be many male students who are willing to be attentive in daily life.
After all, there is never a shortage of vases in the film and television industry, vases of all kinds.
Alas, I originally wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but now I can only ...... Stalls, showdowns?
Gan Jing understood the mentality of the students, but he didn't feel that he had any need to explain them, the gap was indeed quite big, but his attitude had not changed, and besides, filming this "Charlotte Troubles" well was better than anything else for this group of students.
Thinking like this, doing it with concentration.
The heated discussion about "Infernal Affairs" in the outside media is still continuing, and the spontaneous film reviews and discussions of the audience fans are also accumulating, because Gan Jing's own account has opened a column on the [Film Talk] forum, so this time the box office explosion of "Infernal Affairs" has brought a lot of traffic to the forum, which is another side benefit.
For almost a week from the afternoon of October 9, Gan Jing concentrated on filming the remaining scenes of "Charlotte's Troubles", completely ignoring the invitations that kept flying in front of him.
From the perspective of work alone, his schedule is still relatively tight, he has to start cutting after filming, he must continue to communicate with Ma Hammer in terms of music, and the preparation of the company for submitting the review work must be seen, which is difficult to fake in the hands of others.
The box office growth rate of "Infernal Affairs" has become slow in late October, and it seems that it is a little difficult and unexpectedly to climb the threshold of 900 million, and there is only a double-digit target left in front of it.
There is no doubt that the well-known "Infernal Affairs" is already the NO.1 in the National Day schedule, and the "Mysterious Love Letter" that lags behind is two positions behind, and "The King of Fighters", "Life is Like a Dream", "Happy Treasure", which had a famous director or famous acting in the past, can only be said to have average performance and did not meet expectations.
From October 1 to the end of this month, "Infernal Affairs", which has been going all the way, has played a head effect, squeezing out a considerable number of other films, and of course, there is also Tie Hanhan like Jin Yun who maintains a basic proportion of film scheduling in self-operated theaters.
For this approach, Yu Jing, who has been in contact with the theater chain for a long time, is not too difficult to understand, the higher the box office of the movie that is willing to give high rebates, the more extra money the theater will get, and the money obtained by this unspoken rule can largely offset the loss of "Infernal Affairs" without additional ranking.
As for whether it will be a loss or a gain in the final money, it is unknown.
"Brother Gan, this time we have a feud with Jin Run, they really watched our movies increase the schedule in other theaters and were unmoved. ”
"Well, I have a backbone, and I hope it can go on forever. ”
"Brother Gan, they seem to have backbone during the Spring Festival. ”
Gan Jing finally looked away from the document when he heard his sister-in-law's somewhat tentative report, he came to the company today to participate in a regular meeting, which can be regarded as a warm-up for the content of the meeting in advance.
"You've already been in contact with it, right? Our "Infernal Affairs" is so hot, it should be okay for a small schedule like the Spring Festival, right?"
Yu Jing turned sideways and nodded: "Because I am sure that it is going to be on the Spring Festival, so in the past few days, when I took stock of the box office of "Infernal Affairs" with the theater chain, I chatted about the finalization of "Charlotte's Troubles", and most of the attitudes are welcome, the rebate is generally 3%, and the new theater can achieve 1% or normal film scheduling. ”
Gan Jing thought about it, there are more factors involved in this kind of thing, and now "Charlotte's Troubles" sounds much easier than "Infernal Affairs".
"Jin Run is unwilling to have more rows, after all, our lineup is average, understandable. Gan Jing finished this summary in a calm tone, and continued, "Lao Zhang called me yesterday, Kang Run wanted him to use "Infernal Affairs" to compete for the best actor, what do you think?"
Yu Jing's eyes widened suddenly, and she instinctively reacted: "Kang Run is provoking!"
"Then do you think Lao Zhang's acting is not good?" Gan Jing asked rhetorically, "Doesn't he have a position to use this film to compete for the best actor?"
Yu Jing was affected by her brother-in-law's attitude, she thought about it calmly, and had to admit that Zhang Zhonghui, a powerful actor, has a position and acting skills to compete for the best actor.
Let's not talk about the reduction of salary, which is still a little related to his comeback, let's just talk about the various help given by Zhang Zhonghui's team during the publicity period, Beijing Blu-ray and Gan Jing have no reason to refuse others' requests to compete for honor.
The first drama after the comeback from the car accident won the best actor, which is obviously a very box office start.
Yu Jing figured it out.
Gan Jing looked at her sister-in-law and loosened her brows, and said with a smile: "What do you think should be done?"
Yu Jing said categorically: "Don't be humble, just rely on your ability." ”
Gan Jing was a little surprised: "Aren't you humble? I remember that you like Zhang Zhonghui a lot." ”
"Then you're still my brother-in-law. In addition, I don't think you have any intention of letting go, he called you to ventilate, I don't believe that someone like him who has won the actor can ask you to give it to him, he just came back Yes, you are also on the rise. Each according to his ability!" Yu Jing emphasized.
Gan Jing nodded and showed a smile: "I think so too, it just so happens that the company hasn't done this yet, you can put aside the theater work during the Spring Festival and try to try a new direction." ”
"I?hmm, can I?" Yu Jing was not too confident.
"The company is gradually expanding, I plan it this way, the senior management has planned to rotate in different directions, you were in charge of the Blu-ray market at the beginning, this time you were in contact with the theater chain, and then you will look at the film festival awards, Chu Hui is the same, she can be in charge of the Blu-ray disc of "Infernal Affairs", I believe that the Asian market will make a big difference. Gan Jing said, "But it's not completely letting go of the original work, every time there is an executive deputy who continues to be in charge of the original direction, so that everyone can grow." ”
Yu Jing nodded slowly: "I'm fine." ”
She thought for a while and then took the initiative to say, "Chu Hui, do you need me to communicate first?"
Gan Jing agreed without hesitation: "Okay." ”
Yu Jing was a little moved, thinking that her brother-in-law was cultivating herself, but after a while, she felt that he was a bit habitual to shake his hands and shopkeepers, uh, just like he said that he would not participate in any publicity activities during the Spring Festival.
"Is there anything else you want me to do?" asked Yu Jing again.
"Not yet. Gan Jing just wanted to signal his sister-in-law to go to the conference room with him when he heard the phone ringing on the table, he picked it up and listened to it for a while, put down the phone and smiled a little strangely, "Well, now there are, two small things." ”
Yu Jing listened quietly.
"It was He Yue who called me just now, first, I was invited to the 60th anniversary of Chinese opera, and second, Li Sheng, do you remember? He was signed by Kang Run. Gan Jing carefully signed his name on the last document and said.
