Chapter 546: Busy Forrest Gump
Paud is a top photographer.
When Gan Jing announced the news in the crew's WeChat group, director Zhou Shen first replied with surprise, and then Wu Rustbo and Tang Wei also felt the same way.
If you want to say that the people who care the most about the success or failure of this script, I am afraid that these three are them.
The freshman young director Zhou Shen, the TV drama actor Wu Rubo, and the literary and artistic commercial film Tang Wei, these three people are afraid that Forrest Gump, an investor and producer, is in the mood to build the crew, and the joining of a top photographer is undoubtedly a lot more reassuring.
After successfully winning Bao Dexi, the studio launched a wave of new recruitment, on the one hand, to provide manpower for business expansion, and on the other hand, to prepare for the upcoming launch of "Beijing Meets Seattle".
The script and stories all take place in Seattle, USA, but some shots can also be filmed in China, and the current plan is to place the start-up ceremony in China, and shoot what can be filmed first, and then fly to the United States.
There are a lot of bits and pieces here, and on the other hand, the official announcement of "Cold War" is finally about to begin, and Gan Jing is busy almost instantly.
The drama "Cold War" has already been completed, and the reason why it was released at this time is not only to improve the editing, but also to avoid colliding with blockbusters.
In November and December last year, "Life of Pi" was released, followed by "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises".
The schedule has been postponed, such as Feng Xiaogang's "1942", Jackie Chan's "Zodiac", Wang Jing's "Shanghai", and Xu Zheng's "Thai Embarrassment" have been moved to the Spring Festival and March and April.
Of course, these adjustments are a matter of the industry, some of them have not yet been determined to adjust with the trend, and some are determined and reluctantly adjusted - as for those films that cannot be adjusted, they have been strangled into a brilliant firework by two blockbusters starring Forrest Gump.
But even so, there is still a light that can't be hidden, and Xu Zheng's "Thai Embarrassment" broke the record and became the box office champion in domestic film history.
Gan Jing congratulated the pair of Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiao on Weibo.
Maybe in the eyes of others, this is Forrest Gump's coping, but Gan Jing knows in his heart that he is sincere, and even hopes that the Chinese market can become the world's No. 1 box office market under this trend.
"Cold War" was launched in this situation, and the movie schedule in April and May is not an excellent schedule in the usual sense, there is the Spring Festival in front of it, and there is a summer vacation in the future, but whether it is Anle or Forrest Gump Studio, both of them maintain confidence in the combination of Gan Jing and Liang Chaowei.
In fact, at the beginning of the official publicity event, the feedback given by various channels was good, and everyone was full of expectations for the two acting masters, judging from Weibo alone, #้ฟ็ๅ็ฎไป#, #ๅฏๆ#ไธคไธช่ฏ้ขไธ็ดๆๅฑ ้ซไธไธ็็ญๅบฆ.
Even, the interesting story of Forrest Gump and Liang Chaowei directing traffic after being drunk was once again revealed, and there were once emojis flooded.
Gan Jing felt a little helpless, and this emotion was even stronger when he saw Liang Chaowei himself.
"Wei Zai, I think our two actors may become the two most neglected acting ...... in history"
Liang Chaowei was quite cold when he promoted the roadshow in the film, and he just smiled faintly when he heard this: "I don't care." โ
"My God, have you seen those expressions? Let me tell you, netizens are very talented!" Gan Jing remembered those expressions that sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and sometimes thought that it might be some film and television companies behind the scenes that secretly hacked it, but Lao Chen said that it was the love of netizens.
"Of course there is. Liang Chaowei looked like you were making a fuss and replied, "I think that's pretty cool." โ
Gan Jing was speechless, well, the actor and the actor are also different, and it seems that the next time he drinks, he can only let this big coffee flow out of fruit photos to make him moved.
The publicity activities of "Cold War" were carried out intensively and intensely until April 12, when Gan Jing, who hastily ended the movie premiere, returned home with a tired body and the smell of alcohol.
Before he could sit down on his ass, the phone in his pocket rang again.
"Brother Gan, the application for filming on the Empire State Building has been denied. โ
"Beijing Meets Seattle" has a shot on the Empire State Building, and no Chinese crew has been filmed yet.
Gan Jing thought for a while and said, "Wait until I contact Warner." โ
Hung up the phone here, he looked at the time, it was daytime in the United States, so he called Andy, but just got a message before he could speak.
- Warner Bros. Pictures President Jeff was cleared out.
Undoubtedly, this symbolizes a new phase in the power struggle within Warner.
Gan Jing listened to the other party's voices on the phone, and mentioned his own affairs in a curt, and hung up the phone without saying much.
Comparatively, it must be a trivial matter for a crew to shoot the Empire State Building.
Gan Jing turned to inform the crew that the framing problem would be solved in the United States.
After a little bit of a moment, the phone rang again.
"Forrest Gump, congratulations, the reputation of "Cold War" is not bad at present. "Lao Chen called.
After dealing with Lao Chen, the phone rang again.
"Forrest Gump, congratulations, it looks like the Anglo-Olympic Games are going to add another trophy. โ
Gan Jing replied casually: "Rejoice and rejoice." Then he reacted, "Who are you?"
"Uh, is my English accent so standard? โ
Listening to the name and knowing the film, Olivier is obviously talking about "Untouchable".
Gan Jing has a sense of funny: "It's been so long, and there are still awards?" This film helped him to be shortlisted for the Oscars for the second time, but now he has won the title for the third time, and he is still brushing up on the awards?
"Of course. Aren't you there?" said Olivier.
The British Academy Film Awards, known as the Oscars of the United Kingdom, are also awards with high gold content, and it would be too arrogant not to go if you were shortlisted for the first time.
Gan Jing pondered his time, and could only helplessly push away a slightly unimportant item, he called Zhou Shen: "Director Zhou, I won't participate in the start-up ceremony on the 15th, I'm going to the UK to attend an award." โ
Zhou Shen was a little surprised, the boot ceremony was not Forrest Gump, but it was a lot of discoloration, he asked, "What award?"
"Anglo-Austrian. โ
"No problem. Zhou Shen immediately agreed, this is a grand prize, if Forrest Gump didn't get the award, then Yingao would be much more disgraced than himself!
The phone hung up, another thing was solved, Gan Jing looked up and sighed, things came in a hurry, publicity, box office, new plays, awards...... I'm really tired...
Da - the sound of the golden retriever's paws rubbing against the floor, and the dog comes out of the bedroom.
"What's wrong?" Gan Jing was a little surprised, why didn't this thing play games.
"Two-legged beast, I seem to have a problem. The dog's eyes were a little wandering.
Say. โ
"It seems that my live channel was hacked just now, and it seems that it may be possible to find out the address?"
Gan Jing was speechless, and he looked into the dog's eyes, as if the sound of the dog's paws he had just heard was a beautiful mistake.
"The black dog also depends on the owner!"
