Falling asleep at more than two o'clock in the morning and waking up at seven o'clock in the morning, Gan Jing's first thing was to look at the feedback on his mobile phone.

Before going to bed last night, he texted Andy about contacting Scarlett, and was ready to let his agent make some efforts to try to settle the matter.

However, it may be that it is still early, and there is no reply from Andy on the phone, but there is a reply from another child.

"Big star, remember to pay back. ”

Gan Jing smiled dumbly, this matter has to be implemented, and he will send a WeChat message to Lao Chen and ask him to help him settle the account.

Less than five hours of sleep in a night was not enough, but now that he had woken up, Gan Jing didn't plan to go back to sleep, he ordered a breakfast from the phone in his room, and then took out the English version of the script and sat down at the table.

Because of the rush of time, he only read through the translated English version of the script, and now he has time to ponder the details.

The Chinese and English versions of the script story are not just simple translations, but must be able to be proficient in the culture of both sides, for example, the song "Right Here aiting" translated into Chinese is "This Love Can Be Waited", which has its own charm.

Chinese translation pays attention to a "letter, reach, and elegance", in turn, this is also the English requirement for Chinese translation, for the respective audience, must pay attention to a linguistic beauty.

Specific to the script, the setting of some baggage and stalks requires a lot of skill.

Gan Jing flipped through a few pages of the script, got up and went to the other side to get the pencil from the hotel, and began to change and write his thoughts on it.

This film wants to face both Eastern and Western audiences, so some details must take into account the common aesthetics of both parties - commercial films also need aesthetics, which is to make it easy for the audience to understand the expression of the director and actors.

After deleting and modifying, and having a simple breakfast halfway, Gan Jing has already fixed some details.

In the case of an actress who has already been invited, the picture he can imagine in his mind is more realistic.

- In the distance, there was a lot of gunfire, Gan Jing reached out and knocked on the head of Scarlett, who had just swallowed a bowl of Xichuan dandan noodles, and said with a smile: "Hey, baby, I'm going to knock 419 times on your head." ”

- Scarlett gobbled up after a while, and then slowly wiped her lips, and even had time to make up her lipstick, and raised her thin eyebrows: "Are you serious?"

After Gan Jing's image was finished, he re-examined it, and for a while he was not sure whether the audience would have a laugh, but this picture should be shot by the director with a very artistic sense.

As for the Bodhi Ancestor knocking three times on Wukong's head to ask him to come over in the middle of the night, and 419 and one-night stand in English are homophonies...... Whether such a meme can arouse a smile from both Eastern and Western audiences needs to continue to be studied.

However, there should be no problem with Gan Jing's conscious thinking.

By nine o'clock in reviewing the script like this, Andy's reply came in, saying that he had been contacting Scarlett's agent.

Coincidentally, or rather, it is very unfortunate that Scarlett is a star signed under the CAA agency, and Gan Jing has had some unfriendly contact with the other party before - the reason for this is also Andy's hostility to CAA at Warner.

At this time and then, now coming out of Warner, Andy still has a sense of embarrassment when he contacts him.

Until five o'clock in the afternoon, Scarlett replied that in principle, she was willing to join in the performance of "Love What I Love", but the heroine's role must be increased.

It turns out that the heroine in the script has the meaning of a vase, but now Scarlett must have a highlight performance.

Gan Jing agreed to this request without much hesitation, and the salary given under the initial contact between the two parties was $14 million, excluding box office revenues.

In the evening, Gan Jing took Andy to meet Luc for the third time in Paris.

"Director Luc, how is it? Are you already sure that you want to direct our movie? Can't you hold back the heart that wants to cooperate with the Oscar?" Gan Jing was very relaxed.

Luc was amused by him: "Forrest Gump, thank you very much for choosing me, and thank you for bringing me the love of Chinese movie audiences for me, but after I seriously considered it, I still felt that the next film should be filmed "Super Body". ”

"Hmm, director, let me tell you, I invited ......" Gan Jing was about to put out his chips, but was interrupted by Luc in the blink of an eye.

"The film "Super Body" has been determined to invest in production, which is relatively stable, and you still need to contact you in this regard. Luc was very organized, "Also, Forrest Gump, I understand why you made this film, and just like you, the production investment on the side of "Super Body" is our French company. ”

Gan Jing frowned, it sounds like there is something involved behind this, Luc can be said to be a banner of Europa movies.

"In that case......" Gan Jing muttered to himself, "Director Luc, you have also read my script, and you don't bother the two masters, do you have any suitable directors that you can recommend to me?"

Luc breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and smiled: "Are you still willing to use a French director?" Piara doesn't know if you know him, he has a schedule recently. ”

Gan Jing thought about it, shook his head, and honestly admitted: "I haven't heard his name. ”

"He used to make "About Our Love", which is very good, you can also watch it. Luc earnestly recommended, "I can act as an intermediary to contact him for you." ”

"Thank you, Director Luc. Gan Jing paused and continued, "Do you think he can use me and Scarlett well?"

Luc was about to nod when he was suddenly stunned: "You and Scarlett?"

Gan Jing blinked: "That's right." ”

"Scarlett is going to shoot "Super Body"!" Luc's eyes widened suddenly, "I really want to use Scarlett!"

"Let's pull it down!" Gan Jing spread his hands, "Has she signed the contract? Has she reached an intention? Anyway, she has agreed in principle, we are discussing the salary and schedule, and she wants to set aside the schedule that was originally intended for "Super Body". ”

Luc turned his head sideways, stared at Forrest Gump, nodded and sighed, "It seems that I have to go out of the mountain." ”

"Huh?"

"People like you still have to be in charge of me. Luc smiled as if he hadn't said anything just now, "I like your performance very much, actor Forrest Gump." ”

Gan Jing didn't let go: "What about the investment behind you?"

Luc waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "It's all old friends, they will understand." ”

"What about your French films?" Gan Jing continued.

Luc looked displeased: "This is not my last film, there will be many opportunities in the future, but there are not many opportunities to direct a Chinese Oscar." ”

Seeing that Forrest Gump was about to speak, he hurriedly interrupted: "Don't bother the two masters." I'll take this job!"

Gan Jing was speechless for a long time, and finally said: "Admire, admire." ”

"Hey, you're welcome. ”
