Chapter 446: The Danger of Mountains and Rivers (2-in-1)
Huaxia special effects have been produced by the special effects of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises"!
This news was not hidden, it was first officially announced by Warner, and then reminded by Lao Chen in China to familiar media.
Soon, the news swept through the pages of many media outlets.
It stands to reason that a special effects company is actually not very easy to attract attention, but thanks to the monopoly bill and the response on the news around Forrest Gump a while ago, now everyone who cares a little about him knows what this special effects company is all about.
But not long after that news, this company actually won the special effects production of "Batman 3???
It's Warner Bros.'s "Batman 3"! It's not Huayi Brothers' "Di Renjie 3"!
Well, in fact, director Tsui Hark has negotiated with Huaxia special effects, he lowered the price a bit, and used Huaxia special effects to shoot "Di Renjie 2", and agreed that he would continue to use the production of "Di Renjie 3" in the future.
That is to say, after the special effects production of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" collided with the key project "Life of Pi", director Tsui Hark's "Di Renjie's Divine Dragon King" is likely to hit the key project "Batman: The Rise of the Dark Knight"!
After knowing that Huaxia special effects won the big production, Tsui Hark was the most complicated among different people, and he and Forrest Gump were a little forgetful, but, but, ...... Is it popular to forget the New Year's Eve now?
The big director made two phone calls, the first call went to Xiao Yang, the CEO of Huaxia Special Effects, and told them not to forget that the domestic compatriots are compatriots, and the second call was naturally to Forrest Gump, during the call, Tsui Hark severely reprimanded Forrest Gump's half-heartedness, and then said earnestly and asked him to "Dog is rich, don't forget".
Gan Jing couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it, and he made a guarantee again and again, and the production here would not cut corners on his Di Renjie series at all.
In fact, the two people on these two phone calls sat side by side.
After the Warner Group meeting, Gan Jing returned to the hotel and borrowed the meeting room of the Lower Hilton to lead a small meeting.
At this small meeting, he just told Xiao Yang to pay attention to the quality of works other than "Batman 3", Director Xu's phone called, Xiao Yang's call was okay, when his phone rang, Xu Hark's angry voice was very loud, and the people in the entire conference room couldn't help laughing.
Gan Jing was a little embarrassed, and after hanging up the phone, he clapped his hands lightly and said: "Look, this is one of the effects of winning "Batman 3", why did Director Xu call? β
"Of course, I'm just talking in general terms, I don't understand the specifics, it's up to you. Gan Jing concluded, "This time we were able to successfully win Warner's film because we made such a high-quality movie as Youth School, and here, we should all thank director Ang Lee." β
Gan Jing was the first to applaud, and everyone else in the room smiled and followed.
I have to say that Li Anneng flew all the way from the treasure island to give a big face.
"You are the leading actor, this applause, you score half, it's a good thing that the level of domestic special effects can be done. "Ang Lee is in a good mood, both for the praise he received for the first cut of the film, and for the fact that this time he came in vain.
"Haha, I hope there will be a good box office, so we won't tout each other. Gan Jing's meeting has been held for two hours, he listened to the news at all levels, and determined that the special effects team has made great progress through the training of the youth school, and more importantly, the joint affairs between Huaxia special effects and domestic universities have been further consolidated through the cooperation of a film.
If nothing goes wrong, this cooperation will always be a win-win situation.
At the end of the meeting, Xiao Yang, CEO of Huaxia Special Effects, quietly stayed, waiting for Forrest Gump and Director Ang Lee to greet each other and then mention another matter.
"Brother Gan, there are a lot of mentions of monopoly in the domestic media, should the company make an announcement or hold a press conference to clarify?" Xiao Yang noticed this when he flew over from China - the news and the Internet have mentioned it, and he can't pay attention to it.
Gan Jing denied without thinking about it: "The company has just started business, and there is a sign of healthy development. β
Xiao Yang hesitated for a moment, but still said what he thought in his heart: "If the company doesn't come forward, you will always be written on the news, which will have an impact on the image of the artist." β
"If you hold a press conference, won't they write about me?" Gan Jing asked rhetorically.
Xiao Yang smiled bitterly: "I think it will be better." β
"I value it, and what they write will be important, and I don't care, it's like a breeze. Gan Jing smiled and said as he walked, "Anyway, it's all about it, and you don't have to worry too much about it." I'm an actor, and in the end, I have to return to the work. At the company level, you pay a lot of attention, it doesn't matter if you don't make money for a while, the wave of special effects is seized, and the future is promising. β
Xiao Yang nodded, feeling that Forrest Gump is a person with a mind, some people are small-bellied chicken intestines all the time, and some people have mountains and rivers in their hearts since they were sensible, Forrest Gump has both responsibility and action, he is really a good back-erabbed man!
"Well, Brother Gan, I will say this to you, go up the knife mountain and go down the oil pot, and I will not give up. Xiao Yang made a gesture.
Gan Jing suddenly stopped, turned to face Xiao Yang: "Really?"
Looking at this posture, is this just waiting for yourself to say this?
Xiao Yang nodded a little confusedly.
"In that case, let's adjust the content of Liang Wei's work. Gan Jing spit out a sentence from his mouth lightly, but Xiao Yang couldn't help but change color.
Liang Wei has a very important position as one of the speakers of the merged company, and when she was making "Life of Pi", she became her girlfriend, and even the marriage was booked.
Xiao Yang was silent.
Gan Jing didn't back down at all, and said a little aggressively: "You are the CEO of the company, it stands to reason that I shouldn't say this, but Liang Wei is now the CFO (Chief Financial Officer), and the two of you have become a couple again, so it is a little inappropriate." β
"Take precautions, take precautions, you should understand what I mean, right?"
Xiao Yang moved his throat, wanted to say something but stopped, and was silent for a while before he said with some difficulty: "I understand." β
Gan Jing patted Xiao Yang on the shoulder, and his tone softened: "I don't mean to distrust you, and I'm not the material for the company, but as an outsider, I may see it more clearly, now the situation of Huaxia special effects is very good, I don't want Liang Wei to retire, but the financial position is too critical." β
The two of them stopped and continued to move on.
"I want to watch the development of Huaxia's special effects industry, and as a leader, if you can make no mistakes, you won't make mistakes, and you can tell Liang Weiming that I mean when you adjust your job. Anyway, it doesn't matter if one more person scolds me. β
Gan Jing and Xiao Yang walked into the elevator room and pressed the sixteenth floor.
The elevator went from the three-story conference building to the sixteenth floor, and from time to time people came in and out, and the two people never spoke again.
When Gan Jing walked to the door of his room, Xiao Yang said loudly: "I will deal with this matter, I love the special effects industry." β
"Liang Wei is the same, I hope Brother Gan will not doubt this. β
Gan Jing nodded: "I don't doubt it, similarly, I like to make movies, and I want my hometown to be strong when I jump out of the domestic circle and come abroad." I hope that Huaxia special effects can have a bright future in our hands. β
"Hmm. β
Xiao Yang smiled, and when he saw Forrest Gump turn around and enter the room, he sighed in his heart.
Forrest Gump, where is this backstabber.
He is in danger of mountains and rivers.
β¦β¦
The next day, Xiao Yang led the special effects team to return to China first, and only three people were left in Los Angeles for the time being to communicate further with the crew of "Batman 3".
After the intention of the film is discussed, there are a series of matters such as price, process, and follow-up that need to be negotiated, and Xiao Yang and others will come back again soon.
Two days later, news came from the domestic Huaxia special effects company that Ms. Liang Wei's position was adjusted from the original CFO to SVP (senior vice president).
This news did not cause any waves in the outside world, but there was a great shock within the sunrise Huaxia special effects company - Liang Wei was the boss of Colorful Pictures before the merger, and she can be described as a heroine among women, and after the merger, she was one of the principals in the mission of the Youth School.
Now that the red fruit has been degraded, it's really ...... It's weird.
There are many discussions among the company's employees in their spare time, and many people speculate that Forrest Gump, who is not in the company but has great influence, made a move to directly knock the No. 2 person off the cloud - of course, SVP's position is still at the top compared to ordinary people, but it is much lower for the position that can often be transferred directly to the CEO.
Gan Jing, who was far away in the United States, received Xiao Yang's news for the first time, and he could guess that it would cause some small turmoil for the first time, after all, many people are old people who are different color films, but he is confident that these turmoil will be digested internally, and the rapid development of the industry and the company will be a weapon to divert internal contradictions.
The start of filming of "Batman 3" and "Di Renjie 2" will definitely keep the company's people busy.
Gan Jing refocused on the task in front of him after a little bit of Xiao Yang, and for him, the creation of Bane's character still needs to do some preliminary work.
His physical appearance needs to be enhanced, and Bane in the script is a strong guy.
Gan Jing used to lose weight rapidly when filming Youth Pi, which was done under the guidance of professionals, and the time was full of memories of green vegetables and leaves.
Now targeted muscle building is also a professional job, and in the same way, Gan Jing still has to suffer some sins.
At present, the role is confirmed, CAA did not react much after losing a city, at least Gan Jing was not harassed or warned, but there are still some who are wooed, such as Hathaway, who will chat with him about the script from time to time.
Well, she's Annie now.
According to the beauty, who is 173 tall and has 172 legs, her friends call her that.
A week has passed in March, Gan Jing has slowly adapted to the hard workout, but scientific muscle gain still needs a process, and this week Nolan occasionally comes to communicate with Forrest Gump, but he seems to be very relieved of Forrest Gump's acting skills, just chatting about ideas and shots.
One of the things that surprised the director was that Forrest Gump's storyboard was also well drawn.
Nolan once again refreshed his understanding of the level of education in Huaxia, and by the way, he was a little skeptical that the background check given by the CAA was wrong...... This Forrest Gump is from a professional class, right......
Seeing off the director that day, Gan Jing returned to the room after sweating like rain, and he didn't want to move a tired finger on his body.
When people are extremely tired and sleepy, they will fall into a cycle of self-doubt, such as "why should I do this, I can go to TV, I'm quite rich, I'm well fed and clothed, I have a girlfriend", and Forrest Gump is no exception.
This will make him lie in bed, with only one thought, he must not go to the gym tomorrow!
Time passed, it was getting dark, and the phone on the bed rang.
Gan Jing lazily fumbled for his mobile phone, glanced at it and found that it was Zhou Xun's private number calling.
"Hey, Brother Xun, where are you? β
Originally, he still had the heart to chat, but Gan Jing just listened to Zhou Xun's two words on the phone and suddenly sat up from the bed, his brows furrowed, and his face was serious.
"It's the producer of 'Cloud Atlas'? It's Smith, right, Warner. Okay, I'll take care of that. Do not worry. β
Gan Jing hung up the phone, rubbed his painful abdomen from sitting up, and after thinking for a while, he called Andy.
About forty minutes later, Andy appeared in Forrest Gump's room.
"Tell me, what's the matter with calling me over in such a hurry. Seeing Forrest Gump's serious face, Andy eased the atmosphere first, "You know, I'm not like you, I have a fiancΓ©e." Private life, you know. β
"Well, private life, private desires can't be brought to work. Gan Jing's brows loosened, and he said lightly, "Smith, the Warner producer of "Cloud Atlas", is hinting that my eldest sister has to do something to secure the role, what's going on?"
Andy was stunned: "Cloud Atlas?"
He thought about it for a while, and remembered that Forrest Gump had asked him to tell the crew of "Cloud Atlas" about this, and when choosing the faces of Asian characters, he tended to be a Chinese actress weekly.
This thing......
"Smith's professionalism is still very high, is there a misunderstanding in the words?" Andy's brow furrowed little by little, "Well, he was involved in the last meeting to determine your role. β
Gan Jing raised his chin: "Oh?" The people who could participate in that meeting were people who could talk.
Andy described: "The middle-aged man sitting across from you, nose, well, eagle hook is more obvious. β
Gan Jing remembered, not long after the meeting, he was still quite impressed, that hooked nose was the first to speak out against the replacement of special effects!
"Zhou Xun is my eldest sister, and she is my cover. Gan Jing threw out a sentence, "This is what I told her before, and I have no doubt about the virtue of some people in the circle." β
"This Smith, if you can't figure it out, I'll go find Meyer, and he just left me the contact information, which is a greeting. "Gan Jing has made up his mind.
"No need, I'll understand the situation first, if there is such a thing, I will explain it to you. β
Andy glanced at Gan Jing's somewhat disbelieving look, and added, "Meyer is my uncle, don't worry." β
Huh?
Gan Jing's eyes widened, he looked at Andy blinking, and only after a long time did he spit out a sentence: "Then Bane, who still plays a P, why don't you give the role of Batman with both hands!"
