Dinner, dinner, the first word is a foil, and the latter word is the point.

Chen Kaige didn't take the gift of a watch that looked extraordinary at first glance, even though it must have been worth a lot of money.

"It's hard for you. Chen Kaige shook his head, although he had not cooperated since he played "Mei Lanfang", but listening to his words and watching his deeds, he felt that Gan Jing was not the kind of sleek person.

Gan Jing showed a hint of real helplessness and said, "It's really difficult to find Director Chen today. ”

"Tell me. Chen Kaige thanked Lao Chen for pouring the wine, staring at Gan Jing's expression.

After organizing the language a little, Gan Jing told the ins and outs, and now whether it is the American Warner side or his own judgment on this, there are faint people within China Film who have obstructed this matter.

After listening to Gan Jing's statement, Chen Kaige unconsciously tapped on the table, carefully considering the possible problems.

China Film is a behemoth, it monopolizes domestic imported films with Huaxia Film Distribution Co., Ltd., and there are many institutions and departments under it, which are intertwined, and Chen Kaige doesn't know where to start for a while.

"This matter, you have to think about it carefully. Chen Kaige thought for a while and said, "And it doesn't necessarily mean that there is a problem on the side of China Film, it may be that the General Administration has not done it." ”

Hearing this, Chen Huihong interjected: "Isn't it generally bought and then sent to the General Administration for review?"

Chen Kaige patiently explained: "The kind you are talking about is a batch of films, Forrest Gump's is obviously an account-sharing film, and if the box office is good, it must be the latter to make money." ”

Gan Jing and Chen Huihong glanced at each other, and it was really right to find Chen Kaige, looking at the way he blurted out, he knew that he was extremely clear about these processes and the inside story.

"Director Chen, I'll leave it to you this time, I really don't know anything about this, I don't understand it at all. Gan Jing stood up and raised his glass.

Chen Kaige smiled at this cup.

The three of them didn't start to move their chopsticks until this meeting, and after chatting for a while, Chen Kaige gradually sorted out his thoughts.

"There are too many company departments under China Film, who is responsible for reviewing this film, so I won't ask him for the time being, and I will invite Huang Jianxin over to a table to see what it is. He mentioned a man.

If you want to talk about those stars and actors, Gan Jing knows the names even if he hasn't seen them, but he has no impression of Chen Kaigeti's person at all.

"Who is this Huang Jianxin?" Gan Jing gave full play to the new sense of asking if he didn't understand.

"He's a director, producer, screenwriter. Chen Kaige threw out a few identities with a smile, and then talked about the point, "He and Han Sanping are old classmates, both from Beiying, and they have a good relationship." Go back and invite a table, drink tea, chat, and see if there is any misunderstanding. ”

If Chen Kaige didn't say it, Gan Jing wouldn't know who could influence whom, and where he needed to work hard.

Han Sanping is the chairman of China Film, Gan Jing knows him, he has never dealt with him before, and it is difficult to go to the door to meet him recklessly, but now it will be much better if there is a middleman.

The dinner continued, and after the goal was determined, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

Two days later, Chen Kaige gave a reply, and he was still in that clubhouse, preparing a slightly larger box, and he made a matchmaking dinner.

Chen Kaige also mentioned two sentences on the phone, asking Gan Jing to pay attention to his attitude at that time, be low-key and gentle, and don't show his thorns, he still remembers the skirmish caused by taking Gan Jing to dinner after filming "Mei Lanfang".

That time was a dinner for China Film......

This time, that time, there should be no problem this time.

In the evening, Gan Jing arrived at the club in advance and waited for the arrival of Chen Kaige and others.

At half past seven, Director Chen's car arrived.

"Yo, wait a long time, Gan Jing, come and know, this is Lao Huang, Huang Jianxin. Chen Kaige saw Gan Jing as soon as he got out of the car, and introduced him to the people around him with a smile, "Lao Huang, this is Gan Jing, just call him Forrest Gump." ”

Huang Jianxin strode forward and shook Gan Jing's hand: "I have admired the name for a long time, this is our third Cannes actor in China, it's not easy." ”

Gan Jing smiled: "It's all a false name, and Huaxia films still rely on Director Chen and Director Huang to promote development." ”

This sentence is actually not much of a problem, these two are both filmmakers of the older generation, and the development time of Chinese films is very short, and there is no doubt that these excellent directors have a great role in it.

It's just that the times are advancing, and whether it is to turn back history or make great strides forward, then we have to see again.

"You're welcome, let's go in, long time no see, meet old friends today. Chen Kaige smiled, "Old Han will have to wait a while to arrive, let's go sit in first." ”

The three of them entered the courtyard with a smile.

The box had already been prepared, and Gan Jing had already ordered a lot of dishes, but the menu was still there to see what they liked to eat.

Chen Kaige and Huang Jianxin have a good relationship, the latter is very interested in Gan Jing's experience abroad, and the three of them chatted quite well.

After waiting for about half an hour, Han Sanping was late, and there was a middle-aged man who came with him, a woman who looked quite young.

"This is Zhao Zhi, this is Wang Ziwen. Han Sanping glanced at Gan Jing, who got up to welcome him, and smiled, "This is Forrest Gump, the pride of our countrymen." ”

Gan Jing's heart was slightly relieved, and it seemed that he was very good at talking today.

"I have admired the name for a long time. Zhao Zhi smiled very shallowly, and the other Wang Ziwen smiled more sincerely, "Brother Gan, I like your film very much." ”

Tuan Tuan sat down, and Zhao Zhi continued Wang Ziwen's words and said: "I also like the works of our actors, that's right, there are a few domestic films in this country." ”

Gan Jing smiled: "It will be more slowly in the future." ”

Han Sanping nodded: "Forrest Gump, you can't go to Hollywood and forget our domestic roots, we still have a lot of good scripts and good directors in China, isn't it, Kaige." He praised Chen Kaige.

"Hey, there are a lot of good scripts, but they have to be able to release them. Chen Kaige smiled, "I heard that Forrest Gump's recent good film can't be broadcast." ”

"Huh?" Han Sanping glanced at Chen Kaige and suddenly laughed, "I said why are you so kind today." ”

He only said this sentence that interrupted what Chen Kaige wanted to say next, and turned to other things.

After a while, Zhao Zhi on the other side continued the previous topic and said: "Forrest Gump has few works in China, but it's a coincidence, in the second half of the year, Xiao Ming has a play, and Jinglei also has one. ”

Money can be given, gifts can be given, film appointments can't be accepted casually, especially in the second half of the year, there are also youth pies who are ready to hit the Oscars.

Gan Jing didn't know where this person who came with Han Sanping came from, so he just smiled and declined when he heard this: "My schedule this year is full, so I can only wait for next year." ”

Zhao Zhi's eyebrows drooped: "Hey, the schedule can be squeezed." It just so happens that Xiao Ming is short of a second male on his side, and Jing Lei is also short of a second male on his side, which is just right. ”

For the two names in his mouth, Gan Jing can hear who they are, one is Huang Xiaoming, the other is Xu Jinglei, listening to the meaning of this, this is to give them a supporting role?

The smile on Gan Jing's face gradually faded a little, and he picked up the Moutai on the table and filled himself with a glass of wine.
