Chapter 912: Many, Widow (Two in One)

Yang Aiyan is a strict person, mediocre - the kind of mediocre that is really mediocre, as a non-professional counterpart who is favored by the boss of Bairihong and hand-picked to direct documentaries, many times should be satisfied.

What's more, he met his true love in Bairihong.

But the problem is that people are always comparable, and their mentality will always change.

When I get 3,000 yuan a month, I think 5,000 yuan is good, and when I can get 5,000 yuan, I feel that getting 10,000 yuan is enough to spend.

Yang Aiyan is also a bit like this, he felt cool when he was able to enter the Hundred Days Red, and his classmates and friends around him were envious that he said that he had taken a shit luck, and later he was named to make a documentary, and he also felt that it was quite interesting, even if the filming took a long time.

However, when the documentary was about to be released as if in a dream, his mood was like a roller coaster.

What should I do if I pounce on someone?

What if, just in case, accidentally the box office really explodes?

What do you say in an interview, and what do you plan for the future?

These thoughts crawled around in his heart like a creeper, and then after the release, the creeper fell down in a loud way, and it was quiet, but the heart was also broken.

$3.4 million!

Yang Aiyan plucked up the courage to look at the box office of the movies released in the same period, $183 million, $126 million, $74 million, and $51 million......

That's not an order of magnitude at all!

As for the 51 million box office movie, the box office performance of his work has not been compared to the last one......

It's embarrassing to say that I'm a 100-day red person!

Yang Aiyan's heart was half cold when the box office results first came out, and it was even more cold when the film went offline with a dismal scheduling rate.

He was really stunned, and after a few days, he suddenly picked up his mobile phone when he was lying in bed one day, and saw that there was not a single sentence in the WeChat group discussing his work.

The more you go up in the entertainment industry, the smaller the circle, the more people you go down, the more complicated it becomes, Yang Aiyan can almost be regarded as a step to the sky in the eyes of others, usually she doesn't talk much about it, and when it comes to the results, she will inevitably chat a few words intentionally or unintentionally.

Such as "This is the lowest box office movie our company has ever produced", "The boss really looked at the wrong person", "I heard that Director Yang and Zhao Ximin of the Copyright Department are a pair, and I will have to change Minister Zhao to raise him in the future......

Yang Aiyan's heart that had fallen to the bottom in the face of this kind of remarks fell to a dimension, his girlfriend Zhao Ximin was a management trainee before, she rotated very well in various departments of the company, and later directly became the head of the new copyright department.

What about yourself?

Yang Aiyan's mood was very bad, and his whole body wilted.

This spirit is still the same when I meet the boss.

The beard is unshaven, the dark circles are severe, listless, and the head is downcast.

The first thing Gan Jing said when he saw his intern director was criticism.

"Nothing to do. ”

Yang Aiyan glanced up at the boss: "Gan, Brother Gan, I've messed up!"

Gan Jing sat on the sofa and looked at the little director who stood like a primary school student who hadn't finished his homework, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Box office. Shame on you at the box office. Yang Aiyan whispered.

Gan Jing patted the table in front of him and said flatly: "Be louder, I can't hear clearly, how can you look like a girl?"

"The movie hit the street!" Yang Aiyan said loudly, "It's a shame for Brother Gan! It's a shame for Bairihong!"

This thing is a little emotionally unstable, it is really small when it is quiet, and it is deafening when it is loud.

Gan Jing wanted to laugh a little, shook his head and crossed his legs, and said, "Sit down." What's wrong? If a movie doesn't work at the box office, you don't want to do it? It's a lie to say that you like to shoot things, and to say that you like movies?"

"Well, no lie. Yang Aiyan sighed and wanted to say that he really likes to make movies, but the box office results made him unable to even say this.

"Then why is this picture like this? You tried your best to make a movie, you tried your best to change the movie, you should have a clear conscience, is there anything you didn't do as I said?" Gan Jing asked leisurely, motioning to the assistant to pour a few cups of tea to moisten his mouth.

Su Chixia took the order and left, and Andy sat on the sofa next to him with a smile to watch the excitement.

"But the box office of the movie is too small, and it is the least one in the company. Yang Aiyan lowered his eyebrows and was pleasing to the eyes.

Gan Jing shook his head: "No, it's not the least one, your piece is 20 million yuan in Huaxia currency." The least should be "Sun Tzu from America", do you know who made it?"

Yang Aiyan was stunned, the company didn't sign any directors, Qiu Chuji, who made horror and suspense films, and Zhou Shen, who came out of the drama, the former is still the latest to sign in.

"Was it taken by Director Zhou?"

"Yes. That film was for him to practice his hands. Gan Jing nodded, "Now he can be regarded as a well-known director in China." ”

Then, Gan Jing asked again, "Do you know how much you lost for this film?"

Yang Aiyan said in a snort: "Did you lose it? I, I thought it was a bad box office." ”

"This box office has lost about $2 million so far after removing the share to the theater chain and the public relations fee. Gan Jing said calmly, "This number continues to increase, and by February next year, it will probably lose a total of three million US dollars, which is almost the box office figure of your movie." ”

"This ......" Yang Aiyan was stunned all of a sudden.

Gan Jing took a sip of tea, put down the tea bowl and said, "So, if you slump, the three million dollars will be completely wasted, if you exert a little more strength, maybe ......"

Yang Ai couldn't help but ask, "Maybe what?"

"Maybe if you work until you die, you can fill the shortfall of 3 million US dollars and 20 million Huaxia coins. Gan Jing said very seriously.

Yang Aiyan: "......"

Su Chixia and Andy next to her both laughed.

A bowl of chicken soup that changed its flavor made Yang Aiyan turn around a lot, Gan Jing saw that this was the case, so he didn't continue to ask him more, people's first time is always precious, Yang Aiyan's first movie hit the street as if he was asked "Is it over" at the beginning.

Gan Jing is not stingy with his own encouragement, but this kind of thing has to be faced by himself, and he can only become an old driver after going through ups and downs.

"Andy, can you arrange it next week?" asked Gan Jing to the Ground Snake.

Andy smiled back and nodded.

Su Chixia said with a smile: "Americans definitely can't think of what Brother Gan is doing this trip." ”

Yang Aiyan, who was listening silently on the side, was confused, but vaguely felt that it was related to the movie, so he asked: "What is the boss going to do?"

Andy turned his head and said, "Broadway." ”

……

Broadway is the most important stage for American theater, with dozens of theaters gathered around Times Square, and has become one of the synonyms of modern American song and dance art and entertainment industry.

Western theatre is different from Eastern theatre in that it still has a large audience and a high status.

At the same time, Broadway and Hollywood also have great connections.

Famous Olympic films such as "Les Miserables", "The Phantom of Music", "Sing in the Rain", "West Side Story" and "Chicago" are all adapted from Broadway musicals, while "Mary Poppins", "Male and Female", "Moulin Rouge" and "The Wizard of Oz" were first successful in cinema before being staged on Broadway.

It can be said that Broadway represents a fairly high aesthetic level in the United States.

Gan Jing's focus is also on this, public relations needs to spend money, but also need fame, the two complement each other, one is indispensable, at the very least, the group of judges who don't understand Oriental Peking Opera at all need a public opinion support to vote.

Forrest Gump is now the most well-known Chinese actor in Hollywood, and if a famous Hollywood movie star like him appears on the Broadway theater stage, such publicity alone will be very eye-catching.

Of course, although Broadway also needs to be seen and promoted to a certain extent, it has a basic threshold condition.

Forrest Gump is not the first time to perform Peking Opera on stage, whether it is at the Sydney Opera House or the Paris Opera House in France, he has made footprints, and he has led the Tan Family Peking Opera Society to make experience performances.

With such a precondition, Broadway and Forrest Gump can be regarded as a logical cooperation on stage - which is also indispensable for green dollar bills, after all, the recent stage has long been a fixed schedule, and it is necessary to cut the queue for a reason.

On November 23, Forrest Gump took the stage at the 49th Street Theater on Broadway in New York, USA.

This theater is not the busiest center theater on Broadway, but it is of great significance to Forrest Gump and the Tan Family Peking Opera Society, which is about to take the stage with them.

In 1930, Peking Opera master Mei Lanfang held a successful performance here.

Eighty-six years later, Gan Jing also chose here.

Compared to the usual almost full capacity, today the theater is not only full, but also has 20 percent more seats.

Andy cooperated with Broadway for more than a week to carry out intensive promotion, and the content was that Hollywood A-list superstar Forrest Gump was about to perform on stage, and the art of Peking Opera in the East for a hundred years was restored.

Can foreigners understand Peking Opera?

Do not understand.

If you tell him that Peking Opera is good in person, will he believe it?

You have to see who is talking to you.

Forrest Gump, who has always had a good reputation in the movie, showed another layer of identity for the audience and fans for more than a week, the inheritor of the century-old Peking Opera art in the East, one of the few masters of Peking Opera, and a world-famous theater stager.

"Senior brother, it's already full of people outside. Backstage, the little junior sister Tan Shan has put on makeup for Forrest Gump for the first time in a long time.

"It's normal, in the information age, I finally have some fans. Gan Jing's mood is very stable, and Yang Aiyan, who doesn't have to be on stage, has been walking around.

"It's not just movie fans sitting outside, it's not just ordinary opera audiences, there are a lot of Oscar judges who play an important role. Gan Jing calmly continued to talk about the situation.

As of 2016, there are more than 6,200 lifetime Oscar judges, some of whom have quit the film industry, while others are still playing a leading role.

A voting editor-in-chief of a magazine can influence a hundred or more Oscar judges.

Almost all of the audience in the best viewing positions today are Oscar judges, and they are still the influential ones — something that Andy and Gan Jing paid for and which is almost the most important part of the PR campaign.

"Senior brother, I have a live broadcast of the meeting. Tan Shan's identity as the "goddess of Peking Opera" is already very solid, her anchor platform is in Douyu, and she is also the top group of anchors, compared to others, her resources are much higher, whether it is the traditional Peking Opera art or the star of the film and television company, her lens will appear from time to time.

"Come on. You can show the audience what's going on outside. "It's okay to be respectful, it's a lot of money today, and if you can do more, you can do more.

Tan Shan put on makeup for her senior brother, lowered her head and tinkered for a while, pointed the camera at Forrest Gump, explained softly for a while, and then walked to the front desk to show them the audience of today's Peking Opera.

Compared with Paris and Sydney, today's Broadway audience has very little yellow skin, which is brought about by sufficient publicity and the impact of Forrest Gump's fame.

This kind of reaction is very refreshing in the camera -- foreigners actually go to see Peking Opera? This is not the kind of text that is written! It is not a tabloid that opens its eyes and talks nonsense!

"It's almost time. Gan Jing adjusted his breath and turned his head to look at Tan Shan, the senior brother who was also brewing emotions.

"Well, there's a moment. Tan Shan replied silently.

"This is not the most prestigious performance of the Tan Family's Peking Opera Society? Eighty years later, where Master Mei will be on stage, will the Mei family be unhappy?" Gan Jing suddenly remembered something.

Tan Shan smiled bitterly: "I said hello in advance, people are quite open-minded, and they are not unhappy at all." At your pace, it's too late to be unhappy. ”

"Peking Opera masters have the right to be slow to react. Gan Jing smiled.

"It's done, let's get ready to take the stage. Tan Shan was solemn.

Everything is ready, the Peking Opera actors all arrived in the United States in advance to adapt to the environment, the audience is all arranged for the most important influential characters who have an impact on the Oscars, and the Chinese and foreign media have also greeted and set up cameras.

Gan Jing chose four repertoire for his Peking Opera debut this time, "Empty City Strategy", "Farewell My Concubine", "Sha Jiabang" and "Drunken Concubine", all of which are famous Peking Opera segments.

A well-set Peking Opera performance that is indeed truly talented and learned will officially be staged on Broadway at 8:30 p.m. on November 23, US time.

Gan Jing looked at the dark-skinned, white-skinned, and yellow-skinned and sang very happily.

The black and white audience also felt very lively when they listened to the bells and whistles of Peking Opera singing, especially when Forrest Gump danced the sword, and they gave warm applause before the end.

Judging from the performance alone, it was an extremely wonderful performance.

It's just that when Tan Shan finished performing her role and stepped down to enjoy the voice of the real Peking Opera master, she couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

It's both wonderful and poignant, solemn and funny, purposeful and ironic.
