A dinner meeting for actors, directors, and producers, Gan Jing was quite satisfied, he felt that these people were quite good at talking and communicating, and they also had thoughts about the script and story.

This is important.

Now that the establishment of the movie project is interfered by more and more factors, there are more and more things for actors to consider, how is the character design for themselves, whether fans will like it, whether they will be suppressed when filming, and how high and low each other's salaries......

Although all kinds of considerations can be understood, after all, it is a little far from the original intention of making a good movie.

"Come, Brother Chao, Brother Tao, Director Cao, I'll pull a WeChat group, while the crew hasn't turned on yet, it's more convenient to discuss some characters' matters. ”

Towards the end, Gan Jing put away his thoughts on exploring the characters in the script, toasted another glass of wine, and said.

"Well, good. ”

"No problem. ”

A few people are as good as flowing.

After doing this, Deng Chao and Guo Tao went back first without stopping at the bar, while Cao Baoping changed the wine and sat next to Forrest Gump with a smile on his face.

"Forrest Gump, although it is the first time we have met, I have heard countless insiders talk about you in the past few years. Cao Baoping looked kind, "In everyone's hearts, you are this." He gave a thumbs up.

"It's too famous, in fact, the domestic film market is developing rapidly, which is a bonus. Gan Jing is quite immune to compliments on himself, even if this is an old-timer.

"To tell you the truth, knowing that you are going to play a role, I specially called Zhou Xun and asked her about your temperament. Cao Baoping said matter-of-factly, "I want to understand you under the news first, and lay a foundation for our cooperation." ”

Gan Jing smiled and waved his hand to decline a bar fan's request to take a photo, turned his head and asked curiously, "What did Brother Xun say?"

"She said, you are a very righteous person, and you are very righteous...... I also love movies. Cao Baoping paused, "She just said that if there is any problem, just tell you directly." ”

Gan Jing raised his head and drank half a glass of wine, smacked some taste, and raised his eyebrows: "So, Director Cao, you can indeed say something directly, if you don't say anything else, for your friendship with Brother Xun, then I have to sell my eldest sister a big face." "That's a little unkind.

"So, are you not very satisfied with Guo Tao, and there is another candidate in your heart?" Cao Baoping didn't turn the corner, and asked directly.

Gan Jing was stunned: "Where does this start?"

Cao Baoping put the wine glass on the bar and said seriously: "Talking about the role just now, I don't see that you and Guo Tao don't call much." ”

"I'm a man, he's also a man, it's normal not to call, I'm still with ......" Gan Jing stopped this sentence and frowned, "I was discussing the movie just now, and I have no intention of changing roles." ”

Gan Jing's domestic films are all salary + investment + dividend models, coupled with his own achievements in awards, the right to speak is far beyond that of ordinary actors.

"You really don't have that idea?" Cao Baoping pondered for a moment, feeling that he might have misunderstood something, but the next second he asked again, "What about Gao Hu?"

"Huh?" Gan Jing tilted his head.

"Isn't this the person who came out of your play? The relationship in the circle is also good, and it is not really forbidden above, but it is used cautiously. Cao Baoping talked eloquently, "Now that people are in trouble, many people have called me to say that they are doing me a favor." ”

Gan Jing took two sips of wine and asked, "So, what did he do? There aren't many scenes in the script at all. ”

"The script for you has been cut. Cao Baoping smiled bitterly, "You don't know about this? I was arrested for taking drugs before." ”

"I don't know. Gan Jing shook his head, he really didn't know, he must have been busy filming or preparing for awards abroad when this happened, and he didn't hear anyone mention it to him.

"The above control in this regard must be getting stricter and stricter, so before it is clearly written, many friends in the circle are thinking of letting him turn over. Cao Baoping said, "The roles in the play were decided early, and I was waiting for everyone's schedule before, but then I pushed it back because of you." The scripts you get are all cut after his accident. ”

Gan Jing tapped his fingers on the table and nodded his head to show that he knew: "Oh." ”

After a while, he wondered, "Why hasn't anyone told me?"

Cao Baoping shook his head: "I don't know." ”

Maybe it's because of the tight schedule, maybe it's because there are a lot of things in people's own companies, maybe it's because Forrest Gump is paying attention to awards, anyway, there are so many things, and now the role can only be regarded as a small supporting role, but no one has ever said it.

Cao Baoping pondered for a while, or perhaps, there is also a relationship between turning and turning in the Hundred Days Red, who can say this kind of thing clearly.

"Cheng, the above now says that it is used with caution, right, then it is good to be obedient and change someone. Gan Jing said lightly.

"Huh?" Cao Baoping didn't expect Forrest Gump to make a decision so simply.

"I think the death penalty and the male scale in this script are quite big, more things are better than less things, whoever calls you to pressure, you just ask them to call me. Gan Jing played with the wine glass in his hand and asked, "Director Cao, are you worried that I want to change Guo Tao or that I want to use Gao Hu?"

Cao Baoping had already received a satisfactory answer, and said lightly: "It's a little, Guo Tao is actually a very good actor, isn't there a plot in the script where he acts bravely as a taxi driver? ”

Gan Jing admits this, and doesn't mind forcibly turning the discussion around: "I'm not worried about decency and righteousness, what I'm worried about is whether he can grasp the character's psychological state of mind under the decency he is used to." The interaction of several characters in this play is very powerful, and I am afraid that he will withdraw from it. ”

"It's a problem, but it's not a big problem. Don't worry, I'm confident that I can direct well. Cao Baoping thinks that this is a matter for his own director, and he can adjust it on the spot.

It hasn't started filming yet, and Gan Jing can't comment on anything randomly, so he can only nod noncommittally.

It seems that although there is a little misunderstanding tonight, it is okay overall, and when I go back to the police force to collect style, the film will start filming smoothly.

……

A day passed.

March 11th.

Cao Baoping received a call from Huang Bo at his home in the capital.

"Director Cao, you raise your noble hand to help, I owe you a favor. ”

"Huang Bo, I'm just a director, you have to find Forrest Gump for this matter, this is what he meant. ”

Cao Baoping hung up the phone, looked at the number on the screen, and showed an expected smile.
