Chapter 606: I Think

"We all know that Forrest Gump has a top-notch special effects team behind him, but the interesting thing is that neither "Beijing Meets Seattle" nor "Only You" has any special effects shots. This is worth pondering. ”

"At present, according to insiders, Forrest Gump does not occupy many shares in Huaxia special effects company, and we have reason to wonder how much control the special effects company that has always been regarded as Forrest Gump's descendant?"

Gan Jing put down the newspaper expressionlessly, and nodded hello to Liao Yimei, who opened the office door.

"Good morning, Sister Liao. ”

Liao Yimei said angrily: "It's not good." ”

"Huh, did you quarrel with your husband?" Gan Jing asked slowly.

"Yes and ......" Liao Yimei was just about to blurt out when she suddenly felt that something was wrong, stopped talking, and glanced at Forrest Gump's face suspiciously, how did what this thing said seem to be a clichΓ©?

She threw the script she was carrying on the table: "This is the latest revised script." ”

"Sister Liao just sent me an email directly, why did she make a special trip. Gan Jing took a sip of tea and said with a smile.

"I'm here to inform you that this is the last time I've changed the script. Liao Yimei said solemnly.

Gan Jing took the script and said casually: "Even if this is a script to enter Hollywood?"

"Yes. Liao Yimei nodded.

Gan Jing opened the script and said casually: "Even if this is a script with an investment of one or two hundred million dollars?"

"Hmm......" Liao Yimei nodded a little slowly.

Gan Jing found the part that was revised last time and looked up: "Even though this may be a script in which the Chinese are the absolute protagonists that have rarely been seen in recent years?"

Liao Yimei is sluggish.

"Sister Liao, drink tea. Gan Jing smiled and got up.

Liao Yimei took it angrily and complained: "I've never written a script that has changed so much, Forrest Gump, what do you want?"

"Beautiful. Gan Jing said, and then added, "It has always been this standard." If I had to add it, it would be more in line with Hollywood. This is undoubtedly a commercial film, and it will be full of explosions, individual heroes, special effects and so on. ”

"It has to be adrenaline-pumping, and it's logical to be as self-consistent as possible. ”

"It's hard. Liao Yimei said sincerely.

Gan Jing nodded and said, "Otherwise, I wouldn't be looking for Sister Liao, Hao Rong admires you very much." ”

When they met for the first time, Liao Yimei was a cool person who was cold and rarely spoken, but now she was not half happy after hearing Forrest Gump's words, but scratched her hair a little messy without caring about the image.

She stood up, walked a few steps a little anxiously, suddenly leaned forward, and pointed to her eye bags: "Forrest Gump, have you seen it? I didn't have it before, I stayed up late for most of the month, do you know?"

Gan Jing took a closer look and said comfortingly: "Sister Liao, the flower of success, people only envy her current brightness. However, at the beginning, her buds were soaked in the tears of struggle and sprinkled with the blood of sacrifice. He quoted a poem by Bingxin.

"An easy script and a successful script, I choose the latter. What about you?" he asked.

Liao Yimei sat down on the sofa in frustration: "Then you can't be in such a hurry, I think I have to relax to write better content." ”

"No problem, we're in touch anyway, and I'm going to contact the special effects team during this time. Gan Jing sat back slowly, glancing at the newspaper he had just read on his desk.

The two chatted for a while, and the dissatisfaction in Liao Yimei's heart was vented a little, and she was reluctant to let go of the opportunity to let go of the script after all.

After sending her away, Gan Jing began to seriously consider the problem of Huaxia Special Effects Company.

At present, he has received the news that Huaxia Special Effects has plans to obtain venture capital and go public, and I don't know if the plan in this regard is not in place or the senior management has other ideas, and the feedback Gan Jing got is not timely.

Thinking of this, Gan Jing reached out and took the newspaper on the table, laughed self-deprecatingly, and felt that the analysis above was really reasonable.

But from the beginning, he didn't think that it would be a strong control style for the special effects company.

Special effects are a piece of cake, and making the cake first is the right way, such as the remake buyout of this "Only You" movie because of the Korean side's use of Chinese special effects.

Before that, Korean companies would not use Huaxia's special effects team, and the opposite was the case.

An Oscar trophy is enough to make Huaxia special effects open up foreign markets.

Gan Jing sat in the office and thought for a long time, and from his personal cognition and perspective, he still felt that now was not a good opportunity for Huaxia Special Effects to start listing, the technology was developing, the market was mining, even from the perspective of market value, it was good to slow down.

"Awen, help me make an appointment with Xiao Yang of special effects to see when I have time to have a meal together. Gan Jing dialed the internal phone and asked the assistant to make an appointment.

After a while, the feedback came that Xiao Yang is now talking about the project in South Korea, and he will come back when he returns to China.

Gan Jing doesn't know if this is considered to be hanging, and plans to wait to see Xiao Yang's attitude when he sees it, everyone has their own interests, and getting an Oscar trophy is probably the end for some people, and this psychology is understandable.

Putting aside the special effects for the time being, Gan Jing contacted Andy in the United States again, and learned a news that I don't know if it is good, Andy is likely to give up and withdraw from Warner.

This means that Warner's power shake is nearing its end, and Andy's side is clearly the loser.

However, in this case, it may be possible to persuade Andy to form a star studio similar to that of China and take the mode of cooperation with various giants.

Gan Jing thought about it for a while, and decided to fly to the United States after the domestic affairs were almost dealt with, and talk to Andy about this matter in person.

Two weeks passed in the blink of an eye.

The box office upward trend of "Only You" is getting slower and slower, and seeing that it can reach 600 million, Gan Jing suddenly received an inventory article shared by Zhou Dongyu with him.

- "Except for the works when he first debuted, Forrest Gump's works in recent years have had good box office performance, specifically the numbers have remained at the bottom line of 700 million, regardless of domestic and foreign works. Now this "Only You" is only 600 million, there is no doubt that the actor is not well chosen, if he changes himself, maybe there will be 200 million more. Zhou Dongyu really can't be regarded as an actress who can carry the box office, Forrest Gump will be better if he changes to a first-line actor. ”

The content said a lot, to the effect that although Gan Jing made money in this movie, the box office results were not good compared to himself, and there were problems with the casting - the logical relationship was a little blunt, and the level of black was not high.

"Uncle Gan, it looks like I'm still bothering you at the box office. Zhou Dongyu didn't answer > Gan Jing, took a cursory look at the content, thought about it, turned his head and boarded his Weibo, reprinted the article shared by Zhou Dongyu just now, and then commented.

"I want 700 million. ”
