I want to make headlines

Chapter 631 Efficiency
Chen Huihong only saw him at A-Gump's house late at night.

As soon as they met, he bumped A-Gump's shoulder with his shiny forehead to express his congratulations, while Gan Jing was a little dumbfounded by his somewhat weird way.

"Hey, Forrest Gump, you haven't seen that Mitchell. He was very rigid at the beginning, but it changed immediately after he answered the phone. It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that he was arrogant, but that's what he meant. It's gone." Old Chen felt very relieved.

Gan Jing dug out a box of coffee, brewed two cups, handed a cup to Lao Chen, and yawned: "It's normal. Although he is a giant and confident, he also weighs pros and cons. This time he was lucky. There is a symposium at the top, and I can say a few words."

"If Mitchell doesn't back down, will the General Administration really take action?" Lao Chen asked.

Gan Jing thought for a while, and corrected Old Chen's mistake first: "It's not the General Administration, it's the Film Bureau under the General Administration, a division within the Film Bureau. I'm not quite sure how much power they have, but it looks like they are It's quite tough. I reckon, it's really capable of doing it."

He took two steps and continued: "Anyway, it's not a one-size-fits-all approach to Hollywood movies, but it's just a re-examination of the Fox family's movies. We are very careful about the extent. Of course, even so, Fox will lose a lot. Big, it will be much bigger than the investment loss of our "Love What I Love"."

Old Chen muttered to himself: "This is a bit of a hangup."

"The level is different." Gan Jing shrugged, feeling a little relaxed and tired, "Fox is a Hollywood giant, and I'm just an actor. It's level is not the same as mine."

"At present, this company has at least exercised part of the rights in a national market, and Fox is only one of many film and television companies in the United States, which is not a level."

"Although it's a bit bullying, but it feels good." Gan Jing took a big sip of coffee, a smile appeared on his face, and he turned a little regretful, "However, I also listened to them explain the movie at the film bureau this time. review process."

Lao Chen looked up and knew that A-Gump had spoken bluntly at the symposium, but this blunt statement was not for personal purposes, and the films he acted in were relatively positive and easier to pass the review.

"The review process really doesn't have any established procedures, at least it's not up to standard, and the review result won't say what's wrong in the end, it's just a very general one that doesn't meet XX, damages XX..." Gan Jing said I was a little lost in thought.

Although these things are not very related to him, every filmmaker is unwilling to make things happen because of people, and prefers to be under a transparent rule.

In the black box, what you touch in your hand may be sugar, but it may also be a knife.

Old Chen was silent for a while, then said: "Mitchell wants to talk to you, the reason is to increase investment."

"Well, let's use this to sign the capital contract in advance, in the name of the company to avoid possible legal risks on Warner's side." Gan Jing thought for a while, thinking that Fox should give in.

In the final analysis, this is a bargaining game, but Fox suddenly finds it difficult to deal with the bargaining chips here, so he will return to the original table and continue to talk about win-win things.

But after leaving the table and sitting down again, it is not the original price tag.

The next day, when Gan Jing met Mitchell, he said directly: "Currently, there is a gap in the budget for the production team, which is about 500 million US dollars. I plan to introduce new investors. How about it?"

Hong Guoguo's hint, too straightforward tone.

Rao Mitchell was confused for a while, but he quickly reacted, shook his head and said: "It would be too complicated to introduce another party, and we at Fox are willing to add the last 500 million." There is emphasis on this word.

"OK. Let's hold another meeting tonight. Finalize the contract as soon as possible." Gan Jing paused, "I'll be interviewed by the official media at noon."

"Then I wish Forrest Gump all the best."

Both parties were very direct and efficient. Both Chen and Arthur were stunned by this conversation, it was too fast.

When Lao Chen was left alone in the office, Gan Jing didn't take his astonishment very seriously: "Everyone is very clear about this confrontation, and it's good to end it quickly. It's not worth pestering about it anymore. Am I going to complain A lot of crying and crying? Mitchell is obviously also very bold, like a person in charge."

Old Chen smiled wryly. If he were Mitchell instead, if he had to be exchanged for 500 million US dollars for such a bold evaluation, he would absolutely not be willing.

"Get ready, the interview with People's Daily will be here later." Gan Jing reminded, then smiled, "Does this count as my official registration on it?"

"Registered a long time ago, but this time the movement is a bit big." Old Chen Ru said.

A symposium on literature and art is just a conversation, but its influence is not limited to the meeting.

The Beijing opera matter was resolved as if it had never encountered any obstacles.

Twentieth Century Fox never seemed to have any plans to seize power.

The "People's Daily" interview is like a long-awaited interview.

"Forrest Gump, what do you think about the film industry?"

"Forrest Gump, has the domestic film market played a role in your overseas development?"

"Where did your love for traditional culture come from?"

The official media's questions are relatively general, and the starting point is relatively broad. This may not be because the reporters in front of them are unwilling to ask some interesting questions, but that even if such questions are asked, they will have to be revised when the manuscript is reviewed.

Gan Jing's answer was more general, more formal, and more in line with values, but he still said something from his heart, just like he did at the symposium on literature and art.

"Movies, you say it's not important, it's really not important, how much does a good movie have at the box office? Hundreds of millions, billions, even billions. I'm afraid the size of any top enterprise in any province or city It’s far bigger than this, and I’m afraid it’s not even comparable to the amount of tax.”

"But let's say it is important, and it is also important. A good movie can be passed down forever, and it can accompany a person's life. It has a strong dissemination and exportability. To a certain extent, all literary and artistic works are like this. "

"The most important thing that colleagues in the domestic film industry should do is to polish the work as the most important thing. I'm not talking about how big the investment is really, how gorgeous the special effects are, but the attitude."

"If you have 100 million investment, just shoot the story according to 100 million investment. If you have 1000 million, you can shoot the story according to 1000 million, instead of taking 100 million, and the result is 20. That's not okay."

"The budget cost is sometimes difficult to force, but the artistic attitude of filmmaking must be serious. This is not only a requirement for the actors, but also for the members of the crew."

The "People's Daily" interview faithfully recorded Forrest Gump's words, and after reviewing it, it was published quickly without any problems.

The effect is outstanding.

At the same time, it also caused some unexpected problems.

"Forrest Gump, Forrest Gump, what do you think of some actors saying numbers when they speak?"

"I heard that some actors cut out pictures to act, Comrade Forrest Gump, please tell me your opinion!"

On Weibo, Gan Jing reposted the dynamics of the daily interview, many active passers-by asked a lot of questions, but the fans were very quiet, just lamenting that his own Forrest Gump has become more and more fashionable!
