Zhou Pu was confused.

Lao Chen is relaxed.

Gan Jing is undoubted in employing people.

Since Lao Chen became his agent, Gan Jing has always been very decentralized, and he hardly asked about the content of his work, of course, in terms of scripts, he has his own insistence.

Now that the financial elite Zhou Pu has joined by mistake, then Gan Jing will also repay his trust - but the trust after the family is big and the business needs to be constrained, and the confidentiality agreement, non-compete agreement, and liquidated damages on the contract are a huge amount.

This is also the difference between the first and the last.

After staying in the studio until the afternoon, Gan Jing and Lao Chen briefly talked about a series of contents that Zhou Pu should be responsible for, and then changed their names towards him.

When we first met, it was "Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou", and when we left, it was "Lao Zhou, Lao Zhou".

When he returned home, the script in Gan Jing's hand changed from two to three, and the extra one was "Sun Tzu from the United States".

This is the script that Lao Chen received before, and he bought this because the content of the story is in line with Forrest Gump's character image.

This kind of persona is something that Gan Jing himself has not paid attention to, but the agent must consider it.

The identity and behavior of Peking Opera disciples and promoters will naturally set a part of Gan Jing's image in front of the public, and this image is undoubtedly positive in Lao Chen's eyes.

"Grandson from America" is a story of shadow puppetry, whether it is produced by Forrest Gump Studio or invested, it can reinforce this image.

Lao Chen doesn't need to analyze these things too clearly with Forrest Gump, there are still a lot of things to be busy with the actor, and these behind-the-scenes and designs can be solved by themselves.

……

After a day, Gan Jing had finished reading the script of Shiver.

To put it simply, the investigation of a police officer kidnapping case led to a struggle between two high-ranking deputy commissioners in the police world, and it turned out that the real culprit was the son of a deputy commissioner, and then killed his relatives in righteousness.

Well, the main plot of the story is very simple, interspersed with branches such as police killings, ransom demands, bombing cases, etc.

Watching the narrative is a bit of a Hong Kong film, and it is also a bit like a tribute to the classic "Infernal Affairs", but the content of this script is a bit different, at least, Gan Jing compared it with "Infernal Affairs" in his heart when he read the script, and felt deeply regretful.

Why not be born a few years earlier?

It would be nice if I could play "Infernal Affairs".

- I'm sorry, I'm a police officer.

- Who knows?

Hey, it's fun to say such lines, well, you still need to stand on a big rooftop.

The lines in the Cold War script "It was this action code that caused the accident" and "If you keep using this action code name, you will never be able to find the real murderer".

- The code name of the operation said: Blame me???

As long as Gan Jing thought of such lines in his mind, a weak aura rushed from the tail vertebrae to the heavenly spirit cover.

In addition, at that time, Wang Qiang sent a text message to himself saying that he could play with Tianwang, but the character of Liu Tianwang in the script was completely a vase.

Gan Jing thought about the script for a long time, and felt that there were some chicken ribs, there were advantages and disadvantages, and it belonged to the kind that could be acted or not.

It wasn't until the evening that he turned out the newly saved number and replied: "Mr. Wang, I'm sorry, I have a film appointment in the United States after the New Year, and the schedule is a bit conflicting." ”

Soon, Wang Qiang's reply came: "Forrest Gump, is the script not satisfied?" If there is a problem with the schedule, then there is a high probability that Forrest Gump will refuse when he hears the news of the film contract, rather than giving the news after a day has passed like now.

"Hollywood's schedule is temporary, so I'm sorry. Gan Jing feels that he still won't act in this drama anymore, the budget cost is about 30 million, and the production cost after removing the salary is also a bit worrying.

"We can wait. Wang Qiang's reply did not hesitate at all.

Before Gan Jing could think of how to express his resolute refusal euphemistically, his text message came again: "Forrest Gump, can you come out and talk about it? I have booked a hotel not far from you since last night." ”

Gan Jing was surprised to see this text message, well, if this is the case, it is indeed very sincere.

This Wang Qiang, he asked Lao Chen during the day, knowing that he was the boss of Hong Kong Anle Films, and he was also a figure with a head and a face, and he used Director Tsui Hark's mobile phone to send text messages to himself, and it is estimated that the relationship is good.

Considering that people came from afar and Lao Xu's face, Gan Jing agreed to see him.

Anle Films is a veteran film company in Hong Kong, but its scale has not been large, and it is best known for participating in the distribution of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero", "Ambush on All Sides" and "Lust and Caution".

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Lust and Caution" were directed by Ang Lee, and "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides" were directed by Zhang Yimou - although he participated in the distribution, the entertainment industry is so small, and you can always find it if you look for relationships.

When Gan Jing was about to arrive at the hotel, he received such a text message on his mobile phone.

"Lao Wang is good, quite reliable. —Affectionate text message from Ang Lee.

Gan Jing was not very surprised, and felt a little helpless in his heart.

When he saw Wang Qiang, his first sentence was: "Mr. Wang, Director Li sent me a text message, saying that you are very reliable here......

"I don't want to hear 'but'. Wang Qiang is already in his fifties, but he looks very energetic, he seems to feel the turning point behind him, and he first smiled and sealed the follow-up.

Gan Jing spread his hands, and he really didn't say the "but" he wanted to say, this is the role of other acquaintances.

I have to say that these elderly people are really quite good, and he originally wanted to solve it quickly.

"Forrest Gump, three o'clock. ”

After taking a seat and serving tea, Wang Qiang was not verbose at all, neither mentioning the sticky favors, nor the hard work of rushing over overnight.

"First, the investment can be added. Second, the script can be changed negotiably. Third, we can wait. ”

Gan Jing took a sip of tea, opened his mouth, and was a little speechless for a while.

That's it?

He thought for a while: "Schedule? Can Guo Tianwang agree to wait?"

Wang Qiang said firmly: "I'll communicate with you." ”

Now that that's it, what else can I say?

You must know that the schedule of the king of heaven must be agreed in advance, and if you postpone it, other people's schedules will have to be rescheduled, or even re-negotiated, which is a bit offensive.

Gan Jing asked, "Why are you so determined to use me?"

"I want to make a good film. You have such value. The wrinkles on Wang Qiang's face were very deep, and he said very calmly, and then added, "Whether it is acting or box office, the value is enough." ”

Good film theory and value theory, the former can move Gan Jing a little more.

"Is there a sequel?" Gan Jing could feel that his tail was clearly set aside when he read the script.

"Yes, there is a plan, but it also depends on word-of-mouth and box office. Wang Qiang didn't laugh much, but instead smiled, "After all, we are a small company." ”

Gan Jing's index finger clasped the tabletop, making a crisp thumping sound.

Small film companies, scripts, budgets, schedules...... These factors swirled in his mind for a while.

"The previous budget gave three big names to pay them, and there is not much left, and it is also risky for your company to add it. Since you are so optimistic about me, then I can not have a salary, and bring funds into the group, and the reduced salary will be counted into it. Gan Jing shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "What do you think?"

Wang Qiang's eyes froze, and he fell into thought.
