"Twenty Years Old Again" tells the story of an old lady who bizarrely returns to her youth and returns to daily life, so it is not uncommon for the theme to make a fuss about age, such movies such as "Girl Dream Thirty", "Flying Over the Future" and "17 Years Old Again" are like this.

However, in domestic films, Gan Jing's impression is not too good, especially the movies with pure heroines, which are more niche.

After reading through the script handed over by the Korean company, Gan Jing first felt that the subject matter could be filmed, secondly, he felt that it was not easy to lose money if he did not invest much, and finally felt that the details and stories in the script were relatively good.

Under Gan Jing's instructions, this script has the idea of cooperation, but naturally it can't be revealed when talking about cooperation, the South Korean side will come over to make contact, and the level of docking on the Bairihong side will not be too high.

At the end of the day, it's good to be successful, but it's okay if you don't.

As for the candidates that came to Gan Jing's mind after reading this script, first of all, there is no suitable one in his own company, and secondly, there seems to be no suitable person among the people he is familiar with, so wait and see the results of the talks between the two companies before continuing to screen.

After June, at the beginning of July, Bai Rihong quickly talked about the script of "Twenty Years Old Again", but Gan Jing's previous script about several celebrity friends playing a movie together was not found.

said it was playing, but the script under this lineup really couldn't find a suitable one.

Gan Jing didn't worry about anything else, he was really a little angry about this matter, he read a few scripts, but none of them could reach his satisfactory passing line.

It's just that this time I can't remake the film like the last time I gave Zhou Dongyu the script, after all, the first-line celebrities have to respect their own identity, even if he is not afraid of falling prices, others probably can't agree.

Bairihong Company has accelerated the pace of finding the script story, but this is not a matter of a while, and Gan Jing can also find self-peace in a hurry.

In mid-July, Gan Jing didn't wait for the news of the script, but instead received a task in Chinese opera.

As a glorious university lecturer, Gan Jing has a serious preparation in Chinese opera, well, the salary received every month is almost 4,000 yuan - his salary is linked to attendance, but the number of attendance per month has never exceeded double digits, and he struggles between zero and non-zero.

The Chinese opera invited Forrest Gump to be a judge of this year's International Theatre Academy Awards to screen and prepare for this year's awards.

"International Theatre Academy Award?" Gan Jing was very unfamiliar with this award after receiving Hao Rong's call.

Director Hao Rong on the phone patiently explained the ins and outs of this award to Lecturer Gan, which was established by Chinese opera in 11 years, once a year, and has been held three times so far.

"Drama...... That's it. "If he invited himself to be a judge of the film festival, Gan Jing would not be surprised, but now he is a little at a loss when he is invited to such a play, does even Chinese opera know his level in Peking Opera?

Speaking of which, this is an opportunity to expand the influence of the Tan Family Peking Opera Society.

Gan Jing thought of doing it, and he didn't test Hao Rong, and asked directly on the phone: "What can the judges do? If you want people to win awards, can you?"

Hao Rong was shocked all of a sudden, didn't he know what this was for just now? Why did he go through the back door in a blink of an eye?

"The judges are professional, and naturally they must have a professional attitude. Who are you trying to win?"

Gan Jing thought for a while, and his wording didn't seem quite right: "I mean that your award is fair? If it's darker on your side, then let them follow the black, if not, I think my side will make a Peking Opera performance, and the level should be enough to win awards. ”

Hao Rong was a little stunned, and paused before replying: "It's quite fair, the matter of qualifications will be more inevitable, the gold content, after all, it was just at the beginning, but we don't have many awards in this area in China, and it's not bad." Isn't this just trying to publicize it? ”

Gan Jing pondered for a while, and felt that it was okay, and he could let the Tan Family Peking Opera Club give it a try, and it happened that they had recently released the new "Dragon Babu", just to see how the effect was.

"That's right. Hao Rong added, "It's mainly theater here, and it's more Western. ”

Now it was Gan Jing's turn to be surprised: "What are the repertoire of the award-winning Peking Opera in the past few years?"

"Hmm...... Not yet. Hao Rong replied.

Gan Jing was furious: "Chinese opera, Chinese opera, you are promoting traditional culture like this?

"It doesn't seem to blame us, but Peking Opera itself is not good, it can't be pulled, and we can't just pull it out and give a trophy. Hao Rong replied helplessly.

If you think about it, that's really the case.

"Okay, I'll take this job, but as a judge, I first recommend a new Peking Opera of Bairihong Film and Television Company's "Dragon Babu", so it's no problem, right?" Gan Jing asked, and then without waiting for Hao Rong to answer, he added, "If it doesn't work, then don't take it." ”

"Okay, okay, it's okay according to the regulations. "Hao Rong can't help it.

Gan Jing was quite satisfied, and immediately after hanging up the phone, he called Senior Brother Tan Shan and informed him of the matter.

Since the last time they had a conversation with the above, the performance of the Tan Family Peking Opera Troupe in the capital can continue again, and their performance has improved a lot with the tour in Europe, and thanks to the movement caused abroad, this time the audience attracted more in China than before, which can be regarded as a meager profit.

Ventilating things here, Hao Rong naturally agreed that as long as it is beneficial to the Peking Opera career, he can pay 200% of his energy and enthusiasm, Gan Jing knows this situation, and he is still quite relieved about the senior brother.

After another half a month, Gan Jing suddenly received a call from his old friend Iñárritu when he received the company's report on the new script.

Time flies, Iñárritu once collaborated with Gan Jing on "Beautiful Mistake", and it was with this work that Gan Jing became the Cannes actor, and now it has been three or four years since then.

Iñárritu is no longer the director who carved the word decay on the door of his head.

It's just that......

"Forrest Gump, I have a notebook in my hand, do you have money, you can vote, it's very good, I'm confident." ”

"I haven't called for a long time, I just asked for money, director, can you say hello?" Gan Jing was shocked by such words, he hadn't been in touch for a long time, and Iñárritu wanted to shoot as soon as he opened his mouth, well, there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

"Don't you know me? I'm not sure, I'm going to look for you? I, I'...... Inárritu."

Gan Jing glanced at the phone and calmly pressed the hang up button, I'm afraid this is a scam call.
