I want to make headlines

Chapter 432 Hammer and Ice
The Spring Festival of the Year of the Dragon in [-] has passed, and the gala is still full of praise and criticism, but the chorus of Forrest Gump and Tan Jing is mostly praised, and they think it has made a breakthrough.

Of course, many people don't know that this is just a small test of Forrest Gump's voice.

Tan Jing originally made an appointment with him to come out to sing K after the Spring Festival Gala, but because of an urgent trip to the United States, this agreement had to be postponed.

Gan Jing feels pretty good about this singer in the system. This big sister doesn't have that kind of temperament in the system. She can be positioned as a silly big sister who likes to sing. From the current contact, she is a friend who can make friends.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, A-Gump Studio held a wave of video conferences. Lao Chen, Zhou Dongyu, Zhou Pu, Sunny and several middle and high-level executives attended the screen.

At this meeting, Comrade Gan Jing delivered an important speech on the future direction of the studio. The participants all expressed that they would do their job well, expand their extra work, and give full play to their subjective initiative.

Comrade Gan Jing was relieved and at the same time raised three requirements, made five instructions, and raised a wave of wages.

For a moment, the members of the studio beamed with joy, and the military order flew up.

After that day, Gan Jing contacted Jackie Chan again and asked about his film and television project approval. Sure enough, there was a movie "The Chinese Zodiac" in preparation. It's his 101st film, so he pays extra attention.

Gan Jing chatted with him for a long time, and as a debt of gratitude, he stuffed Zhou Dongyu in, and it was expected that she would act as a supporting actress who was not weak.

Lao Chen was not surprised by the news. After learning about it, he arranged for work, connected with Jackie Chan's team, and then notified Zhou Dongyu of the exact news.

After the girl knew that her next work would be Jackie Chan's big production, Uncle Gan was already on the flight to the City of Angels in the United States.

She didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment, so she could only sigh and smile in the end, wishing Uncle Gan, the boss, Gan Jing, and the actor a smooth trip in her heart.

……

"Hey, dear Forrest Gump, I miss you so much."

When the flight arrived in Los Angeles, Andy, whom I hadn't seen for a while, burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm, and immediately confused Gan Jing, who also watched the China Spring Festival Gala?
"What's the situation? Could it be that the upcoming marriage has changed your orientation?" Gan Jing patted the buddy on the shoulder, and quickly used words to dispel the little stigma caused by not seeing him for a while.

"No, no, no, I just remembered the first time I saw you." Andy smiled. "At that time, I didn't expect that you would one day perform Warner's superhero series."

"What? Are you sure? Don't you still have to audition?" Gan Jing was a little surprised.

"Of course I have to audition. It's just that you have never disappointed me, so I believe it will be the same this time." Andy smiled unabated, took A-Gump's luggage, and said as he walked, "The role competition is more complicated. There are some investment factors, and some people are unavoidably cautious when it comes to yellow skin."

Racism is a pervasive problem in Hollywood, even among black actors who often struggle with it.

Whites come first, blacks come second, and Hispanics and Asians come last.

This is clearly unfair and clearly the reality.

Gan Jing has always been aware of this situation, but because of his acting skills, investment, or the market, he rarely encounters implicit discrimination.

"What's the matter? Is this still discriminating against me?" Gan Jing was incredulous, "My "Untouchable" has already been selected for an Oscar, okay?"

"Those are just one aspect. The most important thing is that CAA has exerted a lot of power." Mentioning the CAA agency, Andy's face became more serious.

The protagonists of "Batman 3" are Christian Bale and Anne Hathaway, the director is Christopher Nolan, and these three confirmed big names are all affiliated to CAA.

Creative-Artists-Agency, Creative Artists Agency, it's really innovative, it's just established in 75, it's also really strong.

"Then..." Gan Jing tapped his forehead, "Bundled and packaged? The guy who competes with me is also a signed artist of CAA?"

"Yes." Andy answered in the affirmative.

Bundled use is the usual method of CAA. If you use my director, then use my actors, soundtrack and special effects post-production can also provide one-stop service.

Signed directors, Nolan, Spielberg, Cameron.

Signed actors, Hanks, Cruise, Pete.

Signed singers, Madonna, Beyoncé, Justin.

As long as you can afford the fee, you can choose any of these. If the budget is not enough, there are many second-tier and third-tier artists on the list.

"Then what is the solution?" Gan Jing asked.

Andy pondered for a moment, then choked out a sentence: "Let's talk at the hotel."

Gan Jing took a deep look at him. For the first time, he noticed the uncertainty under Andy's expression. Although he was not sure when he gave backup scripts and news, his attitude and mood were stable.

This time... probably it's really troublesome.

After arriving at the hotel, Andy explained in detail, and then Gan Jing was stunned.

"The lead actor disagrees?"

"The mistress disagrees?"

"The director disagrees?"

"Half of Warner executives disagree?"

"Then who agrees?"

Gan Jing asked in one breath.

Andy pointed at himself with his index finger, then pointed at Gan Jing backwards, and let out a long laugh: "The only heroes in the world are Shi Jun and Cao Er."

Well, it's fucked.

Gan Jing looked at the manager who suddenly relaxed again, and praised him: "Your Chinese is better than when I first met you. You express the meaning very well."

"Really?" Andy immediately became happy. "When I plan to get married, let the pastor speak Chinese. It's cool."

"By the way, why did you postpone your engagement?" Gan Jing thought of a question.

"Because she just had a baby, let's stabilize first and not be too troublesome, so we postponed it after discussing it." Andy smiled sweetly.

"Congratulations." Gan Jing cupped his hands in congratulations.

The atmosphere in the room relaxed for a while, but after all, we had to return to the core issue.

"Since those people didn't agree, how did you put me in the audition?" It was Andy who first notified himself that he had the opportunity to compete for the role. Now that Gan Jing thinks about it, those people must have never considered it in the first place. Own.

"First point, the box office of "Untouchable" is indeed very influential." Andy patiently introduced the situation, "Second point, using the box office influence of this movie, I released some fake news. If the group does not Tilt resources and you'll jump ship, Columbia and Fox both covertly approached you."

"The third point is that CAA is indeed too powerful. It is not my intention to take out a hammer to smash the ice, and you are the hammer."

"You are the hammer! Your whole family is the hammer!" Gan Jing rolled his eyes, feeling a little more relaxed, it's not as good as fighting alone.
