766 Reason and Confidence

Gan Jing watched the screening of competitors' films, and had to admit that "Focus" does have the strength to impact the Oscar for Best Picture.

is not only a niche theme, but more importantly, the quality of its own shooting is very good, the realism strategy adopted by the film is very successful, it does not use sensational means that many directors like to use, it is purely an objective display of the whole event.

"It's really funny, I didn't expect Thomas to shoot like this. ā€

Back in the Hilton suite that night, three men who had watched the movie sat opposite each other, the smell of tea curling and the smoke wafting in the air.

"Don't smoke, Rosie, I found that your mentality is not good, you look at Nolan, look at Spielberg, look at Cameron, look at Forrest Gump, mentality is great, and doing things is stable. Gan Jing inhaled a stomach full of second-hand smoke.

Rosie glanced at Forrest Gump a little dazedly, wondering if it was an auditory hallucination just now.

Gan Jing continued to say unceremoniously: "Besides, the God of Smoke is in front of you, what kind of cigarette are you smoking?"

Rosie: "???"

This is exactly what the smoke turns into a perfect sound, and there is no sweet smoke ring in the world.

Director Rossi didn't know the story, and Andy, who knew the story, was a non-smoker, so he didn't talk about the past at the moment, but just took a fake picture of his phone to bring things back to business.

Now it is necessary to unify the internal opinions.

"This is a questionnaire that I simulated, and I used to give the results briefly, but now you can look at the data and the model analysis. The current Oscar jury data is actually becoming more and more technological. Andy distributed two documents.

Gan Jing took the information and just glanced at it twice and put it aside, while Rosie carefully looked at the data on it - he didn't want to see the analysis process, he just felt very high.

Little director, I haven't been in contact with this before!

In the middle of the night, Rosie snuffed out the cigarette, and the fragrance of tea gradually faded.

"I—I think ......" Rosie said a few words and closed her mouth again, her face a little painful, once there was an opportunity in front of me, but now she wants me to ......

Gan Jing frowned deeply, he would be a little dissatisfied with Rosie's hesitation, there is really no director he has worked with who has suffered as much as this one.

"Don't think about it, we don't have an advantage in all aspects, since the probability is very small, we can compete for another documentary award, and you win one award better than then empty-handed. Gan Jing said very decisively.

"Hmm. Rosie nodded with some difficulty, everyone understands the truth, but luck is not so easy to avoid.

Gan Jing just needed a nod from the director, he looked at Andy and asked, "I haven't dealt with this senior vice president Jensen before, what kind of person is he?"

His uncle was the financial director of the parent company, Viacom, the second-in-command CFO. Andy smiled.

Gan Jing raised his forehead: "Then you and him must have a common language?" He remembered that Andy had a similar relationship with Warner before, but at that time he was able to come up because of the relationship, and now he is also leaving because of the relationship.

"This is the Jensen information I just got, and there are a lot of factors in Paramount's award-winning work just to show Viacom, and it's only natural that he's in charge of connecting with you now. Andy took out another document and handed it over, this time he didn't give it to Rosie.

A work used to win awards, how much role can Gan Jing play in it?

It can be easily judged by looking at the position that Paramount uses to connect people.

As a Chinese actor, Forrest Gump's performance can be said to have shocked the entire Western entertainment industry, different from the Chinese actors of Oriental beauty and kung fu - of course, it's not that this is bad, but in terms of portraying the emotions of the characters, Forrest Gump is the most outstanding group of people.

Such fame and impression are slowly brewing over time.

In the first half of this year, ABC, one of the three major commercial radio and television companies in the United States, did a survey and asked audience fans to vote for the most memorable movie scenes in their minds.

You must know that "Titanic" is a 97-year-old movie, and it has a precipitation aura of nearly 20 years.

Of course, this survey may not really reflect Forrest Gump's influence, but it can definitely be used as a powerful footnote.

Rosie may not have a clear understanding of this, but Andy has always had an assessment, and therefore, he is now the CEO of Forrest Gump here.

As for the parties, Gan Jing himself also has strong self-confidence.

This self-confidence is accumulated from standing on the podium at different heights.

When he received the Palme d'Or, when he won the trophy of the little golden man, when he personally judged the best film in Cannes, Gan Jing had his own confidence - magic mirror, magic mirror, who is the best actor in the world?

You must have yourself in the answer alternatives, even if it is not the correct answer, but when you want to choose someone else, you must look at Forrest Gump's name.

Such confidence and aura were something that Rossi couldn't understand, and it was also something that Jensen, senior vice president of Paramount, didn't expect.

"What? Not to compete for Best Film?! to compete for Best Documentary?"

Jensen heard Forrest Gump's request, and looked at Forrest Gump's expression as if he were aware of this existence for the first time, confirming that he was not joking.

"Mr. Jensen, don't get excited. I asked Andy to make a statement, and he was more organized than I was. Gan Jing motioned for Andy to tell Jensen a few reasons for organizing.

When Andy finished his statement and Jensen fell into thought, Gan Jing spoke again.

"I'll leave the editing of this film to Rossi, I have had a detailed discussion with him, and I believe he can cut out an excellent work. ā€

"What, you want that little director to cut it?" asked Jensen again in surprise.

Gan Jing felt that it was the right thing not to bring Rosie over today, otherwise maybe there would be a five-step scene with blood splashing, although he was a small director, but the little director was also a human being and dignified.

"Since it's hard to compete for best picture, I think Paramount can take the emphasis down a bit. Director Rossi really didn't have any famous works before, but for this film, I think his ideas are really good. Gan Jing pointed out the problem.

"Nope. Even, I mean even if, even if it's not competing for Best Picture, the film wouldn't be a Rossi edit. Jensen said in a deep voice.

"Oh, who's that, let Spielberg cut it?" said Gan Jing with a little sarcasm.

Jensen puffed up his chest slightly: "It's me." ā€

Gan Jing was stunned.

However, it was not because of Jensen's words, but because the voice of the system after a long absence sounded again.
