I want to make headlines

Chapter 459 Youth Opinion Leader
In February, Gan Jing came back from the United States once to submit his proposal on monopolistic behavior in the film and television industry, which caused some waves.

Among them, someone with a heart found out the whole story of the establishment of Huaxia Special Effects Company, and made a lot of publicity for A-Gump. The wording was naturally offensive.

After the National People's Congress, Gan Jing has been filming in the United States, and has never personally responded to this matter. Xu Lie wanted to hear what the people involved in the incident thought about this, so the question began with the industry.

After all, if you want to talk about monopoly, you must have some understanding of the industry. He also wanted to see Forrest Gump on this question.

Gan Jing didn't think about the detours behind him, but organized his words, and said directly: "Our special effects are very competitive now, but there is still a gap compared with Hollywood."

"Why do I say competitive? Because quotation, quality and other factors are integrated, and the higher the quality requirements, the higher the quotation. When we didn't accept "Batman 3", we wrongly estimated the price of the quotation. Advantage." Gan Jing's expression was very serious, and his tone was very serious, "Of course, even if you lose money, the experience in blockbuster production is still invaluable."

Xu Lie lowered his head and wrote down a few lines, and asked, "Was "Batman 3" made at a loss? Can I ask the specific amount?"

"About five to eight million dollars." Gan Jing replied calmly.

Xu Lie was taken aback. It would be 3000 million to 5000 million in Huaxia currency. This is a considerable loss, right? How many films will it take to earn it back?Even, can you earn it back?
"Is it worth it?" He couldn't help asking.

Gan Jing pursed his lips, took a deep breath, and said again in an affirmative tone: "It's so precious."

"Although we are losing money, this kind of opportunity cannot be bought with money. The reason why we were able to win this production is because Huaxia Special Effects hired a technical team from Hollywood." Gan Jing did not give full credit I owe it to my own people, and to be honest, "Not only this Batman 3, but also director Ang Lee's Boy Pi, we are also losing money."

"We developed late, and we want to accumulate experience and make money. How can we have the best of both worlds? This is an opportunity to overtake on a curve. It would be a pity if we don't grasp it."

Xu Lie nodded. He is the leader of the topic, and he only needs to ask a concise question: "Then do you think there is a monopoly in Huaxia Special Effects? Or, will it exist in the future?"

Gan Jing pondered for a moment: "China Special Effects was formed by the merger of several companies. At present, they have accumulated experience in the production of blockbuster films. There must be no monopoly. How many films are released in China every year, and how many China Special Effects can produce? This is very wrong. As for the future, I am hopeful, but according to my personal judgment, the industry will develop very quickly, and other companies will spring up like mushrooms after rain, and they cannot be monopolized."

"We know that you have used your acting resources to promote the development of special effects, and in addition to this, you have also established your own studio and signed Zhou Dongyu and Chen Xiaojun. What do you say to the current domestic actors? Want to say?" Xu Lie asked a slightly difficult question.

Gan Jing blinked his eyes, for domestic counterparts?I'm still young, and I'm not a respected senior actor, so what can I say?

He thought for a while and replied: "I hope to see more of my compatriots on the international stage, that will be a kind of motivation and comfort."

Xu Lie nodded appreciatively, smiled, and changed the subject again: "Before I came here, I saw some people on the Internet referring to you as a youth opinion leader..."

Gan Jing interrupted in astonishment: "What leader?"

"Youth opinion leader." Xu Lie repeated seriously.

Gan Jing looked a little confused, what's your opinion?What leader?Have you ever made any bad remarks?

"On Sina Weibo on the Internet, you currently have the highest number of followers, and your personal official website has a high number of daily visits. Now Hong Kong, Baodao, Shanghai, Beijing and other cities also have self-organized fan groups. I think This title can still reflect your influence on the youth level." Xu Lie said a little more, explaining the origin of this title.

"The problem is that I didn't express any opinions." Gan Jing was still puzzled, "I neither resented nor resisted, nor was I sharp. Hmm, my impression is that I am far from this label."

Xu Lie said with a smile: "Active, peaceful, serious, and hardworking. Even if you don't say much, your own behavior is worth learning." Or why you hate him.

Gan Jing's family knew about his own family affairs, so he was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "Let's talk about the work."

"Even your works, most of your works are very thoughtful, that's why everyone likes you." Xu Lie continued to praise, and then changed his tone, "Of course, people are not perfect, A-Gump, what do you think about Han Sanping's retirement? ? This matter also caused some controversy in the industry."

The camera was working, Gan Jing slightly avoided his eyes, reached for a glass of water and took a sip.

After about a minute, he said, "I don't have any opinions. As the chairman of China Film Group, he naturally has time to comment on his merits and demerits. Don't you also say that, people are not perfect."

A-Gump was a bit cunning, Xu Lie considered this issue a relatively important aspect in his heart, but seeing this situation, he would not respond too much.

Regarding Han Sanping's retirement, there was a not-so-consensus consensus in the industry, and Forrest Gump played a considerable role in it—stirring up hot spots, motivating public opinion, and attracting discussions, which naturally attracted the attention of the higher-ups.

Why isn't this called an opinion leader?

If you don't call it a youth opinion leader, then you have to call it a leader of the water army.

In comparison, the former sounds better.

Xu Lie continued to ask bluntly: "Then have you had any reflections on your experiences over the years, or has anything touched you?"

"I'm too busy to think about it. If I can, I plan to wait until I'm 40." Gan Jing's response was a little arrogant.

Isn't this sharp?
It's sharp.

Xu Lie silently wrote down a word, the conversation with A-Gump was refreshing his original imagined image, but obviously, this was far from the whole of A-Gump.

"The tea is cold, let's change to a cup of tea, let's take a picture of the cover." Gan Jing asked for advice.

Xu Lie needed to sort out his thoughts, nodded, and agreed. At the same time, he also wanted to have a look around A-Gump's studio. When he just came in, he noticed that there were hangings on the walls of the studio that used a first-floor building as an office. Stills of Forrest Gump's works.

The cover photo needs to be posed for a photo, but he prefers to see something close to everyday life in the interview photo.

In addition, apart from being an actor, A-Gump was selected as the most profitable artist of the year not long ago. According to the evaluation of the Hurun rankings, he earned hundreds of millions of dollars in just one year.

Obviously, the office on this floor is the embodiment of this identity.
