I want to make headlines

Chapter 706 Unification
Paramount intends to team up with Forrest Gump to hit a wave of Oscars, which is a big deal.

After Gan Jing received the letter of intent, he immediately held a small meeting, including people from the United States and high-level officials from Hundred Days Red. First of all, he wanted to unify internal opinions.

What to shoot?How to shoot?Where should the focus be?
At present, the direction given by Paramount is to focus on the inside story of taxation in the film and television industry. This is a subject that has not yet won an award in the history of Oscars in the past, but the core is similar. Works such as "Slave 12" "Years" and "Django Unchained" are all aimed at the taste of the Oscar judges.

The famous Weinstein Company in Hollywood is best at grasping the trend of the Oscars. The founder Harvey is known as the promoter of the Oscars. What he does is to cater to the judges' ideas.

Now Paramount is doing much the same.

However, having already won an Oscar statuette, Gan Jing's impact on the award is not so urgent. He still has a long time, and if he meets a right work, it is likely to appear on the list of Oscars.

However, Paramount proposed cooperation without giving the circumstances of the script. This is not only to express the emotional will of the other party, but also to show that it will give Forrest Gump the greatest right to speak, which is what attracts him the most.

"There is plenty of time. Next year's Oscars will definitely not be able to impact. We can only set the goal in 16." Gan Jing counted the time, "But this kind of subject matter is a bit offending. If you want to shoot it, you can't win the box office. Whether you use the inside story of the United States or our side, it can’t be an example, it can only be a pseudonym.”

Old Chen interjected: "Even if it's a pseudonym, if it is confirmed, it will offend people to death."

Everyone present nodded.

"Indeed." Gan Jing nodded, a flash of light flashed in his mind, but he didn't catch it.

"But Paramount doesn't really care what to shoot, as long as it can hit the Oscars." Gan Jing pointed out the most important point, "The direction they provided is that the success rate is relatively high. If the filming is successful, at least it can get a nomination .”

"Is this okay?" Old Chen was surprised.

Gan Jing glanced at him: "Although a giant is a giant, you don't need to look up too much. Well, Paramount has not been prosperous in the past two years."

The high-level meeting is over, and people on both sides are busy with their own affairs.

Everyone is not very optimistic about the possible reactions to this theme, but they all feel that it is still possible to shoot an award-winning movie. That is to say, the basic opinions are unified, and only see the consultation with Paramount.

So far, the dividends of "Love What I Love" are still being harvested, as long as there is an intention to cooperate.

Gan Jing himself has considered the influence of the subject matter, but it is more of a well-thought-out point of entry. For example, the identity of the protagonist can be set as a prosecutor or economic investigation.

This is not urgent, it requires a lot of thinking and preparation.

At the end of December, the box office of the first month of "Love My Love" came out. China's box office closed at 7.9 million Chinese dollars, North America closed at 3.85 million US dollars, and European countries closed at 1.3 million US dollars, plus Japan, South Korea and other countries at the box office , the month's worldwide gross is $6.5 million.

Even at its declared cost of $2 million, it's starting to turn a profit.

This film is worthy of the investors, the actors, the grand premiere, and Forrest Gump's famous brand.

There are endless congratulations from all parties, and there are many more new cooperation intentions, which belong to the benefits brought by influence.

Gan Jing spent the New Year's Day of [-] amid such busy calls.

He didn't have much emotion during the New Year of the Gregorian calendar. There was no time to relax in Bairihong Company. Many employees either actively or passively began to work overtime. Indispensable.

Everyone hopes to take advantage of this time to make the box office rise again against the trend. There will naturally be holidays and so on after the Lunar New Year.

The New Year's Day holiday passed quickly, and Gan Jing continued to fall into repetitive and uninspiring work, which was a bit tormenting for him, but no matter whether it was the statistics and communication of various foreign box offices or the cooperation and selection of the company's new projects, All need to be checked.

Finally... on January [-]th, he ran into a slightly new business.

There is a well-decorated coffee shop next to Bairihong Film and Television Company. Many employees come here to drink coffee after work. On this day, Gan Jing and Lao Chen also came here.

"Hello, Mr. Li, I don't need any more introductions. Sit down, sit down." Gan Jing had seen the photo of Li Juan today in advance, and he did not recognize the wrong person, so he smiled and said hello.

"The layout here is not like a coffee shop, but a bit like a tea house." Li Juan was born in PricewaterhouseCoopers, one of the world's top four accounting firms. She used to be a partner in the capital firm, with qualifications and abilities.

Gan Jing said without changing his face: "Old Chen made a phone call, and the arrangement has been changed in advance."

Li Juan was stunned, she also wondered why the screen in this coffee shop was a bit out of place.

This table not only has Gan Jing, Lao Chen, and Li Juan, but also an artist who is about to join, Di Lieba from WLMQ.

Today's conversation is actually only for those who watched it. Gan Jing knew that this Li Juan should be determined to quit, otherwise he wouldn't bring Reba along.

"I'm very optimistic about Reba. Even if she doesn't join Hundred Days Red today, I really hope that she can develop better with you." Li Juan's eyes were bright, and she put on her posture first.

Gan Jing only knew the outline of what Lao Chen and this man were talking about, but he came here in person this time to give him confidence.

"Well, we are also very optimistic, otherwise we won't ask for someone. I called Yang Mi before she was willing to let him go." Gan Jing smiled and nodded towards Reba who was looking at him.

Di Lieba was a little restrained, but he knew that he should speak: "I will work hard."

Gan Jing nodded again, and said with a smile: "Compared to Reba, we also value Mr. Li very much. Everything Lao Chen said here represents what I mean. Please rest assured about this. To be honest, Bairihong's company The structure is a bit messy, but everyone’s autonomy is quite high.”

As long as you have the ability, the rights given will not be taken back easily. This is the status quo of Bairihong Company.

"Yeah." Li Juan didn't say much, her expression was very calm.

Gan Jing stirred the coffee in his cup and continued, "In my entire system, Zhou Pu is in charge of capital management other than Hundred Days Red. After you come, you will be responsible for the internal capital operation and building of Hundred Days Red."

Li Juan's eyes are piercing, and A-Gump is the biggest reason why she wants to come here. Before Yang Mi, she wanted to see what kind of scene she could create around a star. Now, the domestic No.1 in the industry In front of the eyes, the degree of temptation is completely different.

Looking at A-Gump in front of her, it was as if she saw a delicious... big pig's trotter.
