I want to make headlines

Chapter 448 Missing (Two in One)

You are fired.

This is Barry Meyer himself calling Forrest Gump to describe what he said about firing Smith.

--you are fired.

—You can fuck off now.

This sentence was personally ordered by the CEO of Warner Bros. Entertainment to the executives of its wholly-owned subsidiary Warner Bros. Pictures, and the effect is naturally outstanding, without any muddling.

Smith's office was quickly emptied, and the identity of the Warner producer of the "Cloud Atlas" crew was also cleared, but Barry Mayer did not seem to hide that the source of this behavior was Forrest Gump, or he deliberately beat Forrest Gump. move.

Gan Jing answered Mayer's phone call, and finally extracted the central idea-Warner's own system, how can you let you do such nonsense?For the sake of you being a great actor, just this time, don't make an example, really don't make an example.

Faced with the kind care from the big boss, Gan Jing naturally said yes again and again, he is a law-abiding person, and has always been filming in peace, how could he deliberately cause trouble?

If there is a situation, it's something to mess with me!

Gan Jing is satisfied with the final result, and is willing to bear a small price.

——"According to insiders, Actor Gump is the result of public relations! "

—— "According to a reliable informant, A-Gump has already had a child in a hidden marriage!" "

—— "According to insiders of Warner Bros., Forrest Gump's sexual orientation is different! "

A series of gossip and tabloids gathered the trolls on the US Internet. Gan Jing had two more wives, three more godfathers, four more daughters, and some other uncounted relatives.

To be honest, Gan Jing felt that this method was a bit low.

However, the hooked nose seems to be such a low-level person, so it is not surprising. Insiders, reliable informants, and Warner insiders, who else could have such a sudden act of venting their anger except Smith who was just fired ?
This time Smith was expelled at a great price. His resume will be permanently stained. Senior executives like him will do background checks when they enter any company. An executive must have done something against the principle.

Afterwards, Gan Jing learned about it from Andy, and confirmed that Smith's personal connections would also hit a freezing point. Meyer did everything he could, and would secretly inform the major companies. An iron curtain fell in front of Hooked Nose, and it was basically difficult for Smith to get along in Hollywood.

Gan Jing had no sympathy for this kind of blow.

Chinese people don't make many appearances in foreign movies. If you bully one day and he bully another tomorrow, it will be even more difficult to survive.

In Hollywood, the script roles are basically selected by whites first, then blacks, and the last leftovers are Asians.

If there are skin color combinations for different needs, it is also a black and white Oreo color scheme, and one white and one yellow are extremely rare.

Since his debut, Gan Jing has certainly broken through his personality as an Asian and has starred in several good movies, but these are all shown by his skin color made up, and all the yellow-skinned characters on his body are from domestic movies.

It’s not wrong to say that this person adapts to the outside market after stepping out of the country. Gan Jing has done a good job so far, but the common situation that this kind of skin color encounters in Hollywood is also regrettable.

Gan Jing wanted to change this situation, but he still said that he must first change himself in order to change the world, not the other way around.

Only if you first have unparalleled influence, can you follow the trend.

"@Forrest Gump, I heard that a vice president of Warner was fired by you?"

In the Whatsapp chat group of "Shining Hollywood", a portrait of Charlize Theron is flashing - well, unlike ordinary people who use star portraits, this is the person talking...

I joined this chat group with Hathaway before, and before I had time to say anything that day, the screenwriter she was waiting for came, and the two had made an appointment to communicate with each other on the script.

Seeing this, Gan Jing simply stopped exercising, took a day off, and also discussed the plot and characters with the screenwriter.

At night, Gan Jing showed up in the chat group to say hello.

Seeing Theron's question now, Gan Jing knew that this actress who had never met before must have read the gossip tabloids. Before he could answer, another actress' headshot jumped out with a sentence.

Scarlett: "Should I call you brother, or should I call you sister?"

There is no doubt that this person has read the gossip report about his sexual orientation.

Gan Jing couldn't help but shook his head, and silently typed on his mobile phone: "I didn't fire him, it's a matter of his professionalism." He thought for a while, and then added another knife on his mobile phone, "When you beauties meet this producer, Please be careful."

Faced with a group of actresses talking like this, everyone in the group is not ignorant of the world, so they naturally understood A-Gump's hidden meaning, and a few showed their understanding.

Only Scarlett was still asking: "Brother Forrest Gump? Sister Forrest Gump?"

"Beautiful Scarlett, please call me the film king."

Hathaway, Portman, Christine: "Look around."

Scarlett was unmoved: "It seems to be Sister Forrest Gump."

"..."

Gan Jing silently put away his mobile phone, not planning to spend time with this group of actresses who should be very busy but always have time to chat, but he was a little bit reconciled, after thinking about it, he took out his mobile phone and swiped Chat software, changed the name on the memo.

The original name of this group chat was "Shiny Hollywood". Although it basically fits the facts, it is a bit too rustic.

Now Gan Jing's personal remarks have been carefully considered, which has greatly improved this rural style, and turned it into a very elegant and intellectual style, with a light but not negligible aristocratic style.

——My harem.

Gan Jing stared at the notes that only he could see on his phone, nodded in satisfaction, and put the phone in his pocket contentedly.

The crew of "Batman 3" is not very rushed, and they have set aside nearly a month for themselves to polish the outline, and during this period, the crew will first have a run-in with the special effects, and get in touch with the things that need to be done in advance .

A few days later, Ms. Liang Wei, the newly appointed SVP (Senior Vice President) of Huaxia Special Effects, led the team to Los Angeles.

On the first day here, Liang Wei didn't show a good face. She actually felt aggrieved, but she had already quarreled with Xiao Yang several times because of her job, and finally she had no choice but to accept her fate.

Now that he came to the United States, seeing the master of this matter, Liang Wei saw that he had made great contributions to this industry, so she could hold back her resentment and did not jump over and bite off his ear...

However, even though he was aware of Liang Wei's emotions, Gan Jing still acted as if nothing had happened, and even went to find Liang Wei at lunch time the next day to ask about a personal matter.

——How do you reject a girl you don't like?
In the United States, Gan Jing has an investment business. Uber’s investment is managed by an outstanding professional manager. It's a lot of friendship, uh, the beautiful American girl Lisa.

Lisa is a good girl. She once boldly said that she likes her, but she dealt with it coldly.

Last night, after listening to the video about Uber’s pursuit of investment and dilution of shares, the manager, as Lisa’s brother, naturally adjusted the camera to ensure that the outline of his face was completely in Forrest Gump’s On the screen, followed by a very serious request, A-Gump needs to give his sister an explanation, even if it is a complete rejection, it is better than the current infatuation.

Gan Jing was completely dumbfounded when he heard this.

Heaven and earth conscience!

He never meant to hang on to the former stewardess!
He never expressed the slightest liking for Lisa!
This... Could it be said that great charm is also one of the original sins of human beings?
For a while, Gan Jing wasn't sure if he had committed a heinous crime, but he decided to solve this problem first. It happened that Liang Wei was here. He thought about this kind of thing, and he still needed to consult someone with experience.

"A beautiful girl likes you, but you don't like her, um, according to the piss in your entertainment industry, shouldn't we talk about it later?" Liang Wei said angrily.

Gan Jing thought about it and said: "It's also divided. The main thing is that if Lisa wants something, it's okay, for example, if she wants to be on the cover of a magazine, if you like me, then forget it."

Seeing Liang Wei's faintly sarcastic expression, he shrugged his shoulders: "The problem is that she seems to simply like me, which is a bit complicated."

"Hmm...do you understand what I mean?"

Liang Wei nodded mechanically with her chin down, and sighed, "You mean you are not emotional, right?"

"Hey, I'm also very cautious about the issue of sex, and I'm not keen on it." Gan Jing complained for himself.

"All right, all right, I'll help you think about this matter, but I have a condition." Liang Wei gave A-Gump a sideways look, and said slowly.

"Please say."

"You have to apologize to me. I think there is something wrong with my job being adjusted for no reason." As soon as Liang Wei mentioned this, her tone became a little fierce.

Gan Jing looked serious, did not speak, and looked at Liang Wei with his eyes.

Seeing his expression like this, Liang Wei felt a little nervous in her heart, she felt dissatisfied in her heart, and at this moment she couldn't help but use what A-Gump said to blow it out.

Bad men are good at face, especially a big star like Forrest Gump, I'm afraid he won't lose face at all.

When I went to the airport here yesterday, Liang Wei also read in the newspaper that because of a verbal conflict, a senior vice president of Warner was fired—speaking of which, his position is similar to her current position .

Gan Jing's expression became more and more serious, and Liang Wei's heart became more and more empty.

"Liang Wei, you need to know..." Gan Jing glanced at his theoretical colleague lightly, and there was a certain charm in his eyes.

Liang Wei moved her fingers a little, and stubbornly remained silent, so Gan Jing's speech speed suddenly increased: "You know, I rarely apologize to people, so I'm sorry, Miss Wei."

The contrast between the front and back was too great, Liang Wei was stunned, what about her face?
Well, Gan Jing grinned shamelessly and walked out of the acting state in a blink of an eye. He complained about himself for a moment. When he gets along with actors, he often doesn’t know whether he/she is real or fake—the most in front of him Nothing has changed more than Mr. Zhou.

"Don't be angry in the future, maybe your SVP will be more promising than your CFO." Gan Jing reassured, "With the development of the industry, the cake is getting bigger and bigger, and I think it would be better to have more contacts. a lot of."

Liang Wei couldn't help the confusion in her heart: "You are different from the people in the entertainment industry I have met. You... apologize a little too easily, and I don't think there is... well, no gold content, no sense of accomplishment. Yes, You have successfully reduced my sense of accomplishment."

"It's nothing to apologize. This matter is indeed a bit arbitrary for you personally, but it is related to the benign and healthy environment of the company. I will do the same again."

Liang Wei glared.

Gan Jing felt at ease.

"Sigh." In the end, Liang Wei sighed, "You seem to be a person who does great things."

Gan Jing said happily: "Really?"

Liang Wei replied seriously: "Really, people who do big things are shameless."

……

In the end, Gan Jing didn't know whether Liang Wei had dispelled the resentment in her heart, but on the surface, her behavior was much more normal, and she also promised to help herself think about Lisa's matter.

The days are spent in fitness and sweat day by day. Gan Jing is getting stronger and stronger, and he is also paying attention to the domestic situation. Zhou Dongyu plays an important role in a Jackie Chan movie, and Chen Xiaojun is stuffed into a TV series by Lao Chen mobilizing resources , and the signed young director Zhou Shen has already started looking for actors suitable for the script.

"Grandson from America" ​​is a low-budget film, but judging from the subject matter, it is destined not to be a high-grossing film.

The original intention of casting this script was to test the way and channels of film distribution for the studio. Neither Gan Jing nor Lao Chen would care about the box office. Now there is an added role of cultivating directors, which is pretty good when you think about it.

At the end of March, Gan Jing's fitness program was very effective. Compared with his previous image, Gan Jing's overall image was indeed a little more manly. The crew of "Batman 3" was also formally established, and the opening ceremony was just waiting to be held.

March NO.30, only two days away from April, on this day, a revelation suddenly came from China.

——"It is reported that Han Sanping, the chairman of China Film Group, has gone through the retirement procedures, and La Peikang will succeed him as the leader of China Film Group. This person has lived in Paris for many years and has long been committed to the external communication and Chinese and foreign film exchange."

At ten o'clock in the evening, Gan Jing received the exact news from Lao Chen that the chairman of China Film Group had indeed changed, and it was La Peikang who broke the news.

After Gan Jing hung up the phone, he felt a little complicated.

Although he had expected the result of the incident before, when this expectation really appeared in front of him, it seemed a little unbelievable.

Although the rivers and lakes are big, there is no third master.

A little later, on March 31st, American time, Gan Jing received a text message from China on his mobile phone.

——"Forrest Gump, Huaxia Film is ushering in the best time, I hope you will live up to this opportunity."

The text message was not signed, and the number was an unfamiliar number, but somehow Gan Jing had an intuition that this text message was sent by Han Sanping.

He sent a text message to the mobile phone for a while, shook his head, smiled, turned off the mobile phone, and did not reply.

The rivers and lakes urge people to grow old, and Zongyu is also in vain.
