If you want to rank the best film schools in the world, the USC School of Cinematic Arts will always rank in the top three, even if the criteria for different judges are different.

Gan Jing had not been in contact with the institution before, but he had heard of its famous alumni George Lucas, Ron Howard and others, and the reason why Hanks proposed to give a public speech here was not only because of its strength and fame, but also because his friend Robert Zemeckis, the director of "Forrest Gump", was from USC and had a lot of influence on the school.

At the stage where the crew is filming now, of course, everything is as fast as possible.

Gan Jing agreed to this suggestion after only a little consideration, but what should be the topic of public speaking, and what would be more suitable for such an occasion?

In particular, I have to look for the conceited and paranoid state of the protagonist.

Recently, in order to meet the standards of himself, the director, and the producer, Gan Jing began to watch the video of President Xi's speech back then, well, of course he hopes for world peace, just to take a look at the state of the speech.

In addition, he took advantage of the filming to read many videos of classic speeches.

- "I have a dream today. I dream of a day when the valleys will rise and the mountains will fall, and the bumpy and winding road will become a smooth road, and the holy light will be revealed and the world will be full. ”

- "Although we lost this battle, we will never surrender, we will never give in, we will fight to the end." ”

- "The biggest mistake in my life was to create Alibaba, set a small goal that I could achieve, I didn't know if she was beautiful or not." ”

After watching the video materials of many bigwigs in public, Gan Jing gained something, and while he adjusted his state, the crew smoothly continued to shoot the footage of other celebrities.

Compared with the original script, the details of the story line during filming have undergone many adjustments, producer Hanks will make a cameo appearance at the end of the media reporter and then make up at the end before appearing, Schwarzenegger is the Hollywood friend of the protagonist Gan Xiaojing, used to brush his face on the screen to tell the audience that there is really such a star who has done such a job, Scarlett and Hathaway's task is relatively simple, they are vases, decorating the protagonist's past career.

The background of this play is a mix and match, the name of the protagonist Gan Xiaojing is plausible, one of the big advantages of choosing Gan Jing himself is that there is no need to do more background foreshadowing, and the audience can quickly accept such a setting, oh, the protagonist is a tired Hollywood star, which is fine.

This is actually not easy, and it is also very important, how important is it, so important that Columbia and Marvel would rather sacrifice the opening length of the first "Venom" to a certain extent for the sake of the smooth running of the series.

However, the drama "The Governor from Heaven" is to be released worldwide, Shi, Si, Hai, and Gan are all familiar to European and American audiences, and the big names in China need to think more about their identity settings.

Zhou Xun is set up as Forrest Gump's agent friend as his official spokesperson.

Hu Ge is set as an assistant, and the direction of young and handsome has the factor of considering a wave of foreign fans.

Zhou Dongyu is set up to be the operator in charge of doing the dirty work, and Liang Chaowei is her boss.

Huang Bo and Ge You are set up as a group of partners, and they are the people who were launched by California Huaxia Capital Group to support Forrest Gump.

There is also a general-looking Sun Honglei, who is the leader of a local Chinese gang.

This setting is actually a big challenge for director Zhou Shen, even if he has decided to use the split-screen editing technique, the arrangement of the scenes of the big names is still a headache, which must be exciting and detailed.

Fortunately, Hanks is really a very good producer, he can quickly understand the oriental thinking in the face of a crew that is obviously dominated by Chinese directors and actors, and the quick feedback is almost like a person born in 56, but after a little painful run-in with Zhou Shen, he is very good at putting forward targeted opinions.

For example, Huang Bo and Ge You are treated by actors with different comedy styles.

For example, Sun Honglei and Zhou Dongyu's handling of the characters.

Gan Jing was somewhat surprised by Hanks's professionalism as a producer, and thus more reassured that he could focus on adjusting his condition, and the topic of his speech scheduled for November 13 at USC was finalized.

——The Changes of the World Film Order and the Rise of the Concept of Chinese Cinema

This is a big topic, so big that Gan Jing feels a little reluctant, but conceit is to start with the idea, he is not afraid to express his attitude towards the movie, stuffy hair is a way to get rich, and putting up a flag is also a road, so it's a big deal to go home and count the money.

Compared with Forrest Gump's own lack of heart, Hanks is looking forward to such a speech.

"Forrest Gump, I wasn't going to listen to it, but after reading your title, I decided to listen to it. Hanks said.

Gan Jing reminded a little helplessly in the face of this old Forrest Gump's expectations: "Don't forget, I'm in a semi-performing state, this is the main purpose, what about the specific content......"

Hanks just smiled slightly: "In and out of the play, sometimes you don't have to be so clear." ”

"Okay, then I'll be bold to talk about movies in my eyes, in fact, I think Chinese movies should have more say in them. ”

Gan Jing's theme is established, and he really used the data of "100 Days Red" and "Forrest Gump is here" to support the content of his speech, and the current Chinese film market is already the second largest box office market in the world, however, this kind of market scale has not received due attention in the world.

On November 23, the speech was held, attended by teachers, students, peers, and journalists.

However, before such a radical speech, the reporter's question about Forrest Gump made the atmosphere a little intense.

"Forrest Gump, what do you think of human rights in Huaxia?"

"Forrest Gump, in terms of art alone, what do you think of the international achievements of Baodao Films?"

"Do you think director Ang Lee is the greatest director among the Chinese? After all, he seems to have won more awards than other Chinese directors?"

"Forrest Gump, your political stance seems to have been unclear, are you afraid of losing audience popularity in other regions?"

Gan Jing set up a question session before the speech, but was a little surprised that the questions of the reporters who came out of the country were so ill-intentioned.

After a moment's thought, he understood that this might be the malicious intent of the United States and China in the current trade friction situation.

"I've never been unclear. Gan Jing simply didn't come out of the reporter one by one, and replied directly, "Director Ang Lee has made great achievements, and I admire him." There is no doubt that he belongs to the treasure island, and the treasure island belongs to China. I am proud of the development of Chinese films. ”

"As for human rights, hehe. ”

'That's my attitude, it's clear. ”
