I want to make headlines

Chapter 756 First cut
There is an ancient folk proverb that when it rains, the mother wants to get married.

As an expert in China, Andy knows this sentence, and he even knows the origin of this folk proverb.

It's just that the torrential rain in Los Angeles is a bit funny.

After leaving Paramount, Andy looked at the blue umbrella at his feet in confusion, his thoughts were not as calm as the expression on his face, he was seriously considering a question at the moment, what should he say? , it seems inappropriate not to say something...

Andy looked at Forrest Gump who was pressing his phone with his head down, until he looked back at the same time, then silently drew a cross on his chest, and said reverently.

"God bless America, God bless."

He paused, and added: "Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you."

This is the benefit of learning Chinese and Western, you can eat both sides!

Gan Jing coughed lightly, pointed to the rainy sky on the roof of the car, and said solemnly: "Actually, judging the celestial phenomena is a relatively professional and interesting thing. I'm not good at it, and I've dabbled a little."

"really?"

Gan Jing looked at Andy's innocent expression and nodded vigorously: "Really."

"Then let's talk about "Padana". It seems that Jason's status is even higher. There has been no news that he will be the editor." Andy wisely decided to skip the topic of the weather.

Gan Jing changed from being a superstar to a movie star, nodded and said, "This kind of person is a professional who occupies a high position. If Jason makes the first cut, if there are no major problems in the follow-up, he will be tinkering with his version."

Andy thought about it for a while, and he still has connections that can be used, but it is more human-friendly, but whether the consumption is cost-effective in this case is debatable.

If Forrest Gump can win the cup again with "Padana", then no matter what favors it costs, it will be worth it.

But if it's just the best documentary at the Oscars, everyone will at most sigh that Forrest Gump's choice of drama is good, and the gains in other aspects are not too great.

He talked about this consideration with A-Gump, and he got approval without a doubt.

"It's not urgent, just try to do it as much as possible. Even if we can't cut it, Jason may not be really an idiot." Gan Jing smiled, "Actually, I was thinking about changing the publicity strategy. Paramount Possibly better returns."

"After all, the subject matter of "Focus" is relatively sensitive. If we promote it according to the strategy of humility, the public's perception should be good. This will also attract more attention to "Focus". It can be considered a win-win situation." Eloquently.

"We have to wait and see. Paramount will not change its attitude so easily. Well, giants are arrogant." Andy frowned, and said so carefully. He had worked in Warner for many years and knew the same kind of people very well. Attitude.

Gan Jing nodded, not feeling very nervous.

Paramount's reputation has not been very good in the past two years. Even if it is arrogant, it must have a limit.

After going back that day, Gan Jing dealt with the affairs of the American company, and then started a video chat with Rossi to chat about movies. Speaking of which, almost every movie he participated in can establish a relationship with the director. relatively close relationship.

Generally speaking, family and couples are probably the ones who chat video on the computer screen in the middle of the night.

Just one night later, perhaps out of respect for the actor, perhaps out of respect for the mysterious power, perhaps out of respect for the handsome man's sixth sense, Paramount's Jason responded.

He said that he has truthfully responded to the problem, and Paramount will evaluate the competition between "Padana" and "Focus" before making a decision.

This kind of feedback was aimed at Forrest Gump's first suggestion to change the Oscar goal. As for the second suggestion, Jason didn't mention it at all on the phone.

Gan Jing expressed his emotional stability.

After another two days, after Mr. Film King had started to think about his family's Hundred Days Red, Paramount invited A-Gump to attend an internal meeting.

This "Padana" is funded by three parties, but the sum of the money paid by Italy and Hundred Days Red is not as high as Paramondo, and the contract has been signed long before the start of the film, and all rights are collected by the latter.

However, frequent platform promotions that hit the Oscars need to be coordinated. Paramount is not purely out of respect for the actor, but also has more realistic follow-up considerations.

This time the meeting was not on the eighth floor a few days ago, but on the eighteenth floor.

In order to avoid the number [-] hells, some commercial real estate companies in China often skip [-] and mark [-] and [-], but they don’t have this habit abroad, and they look at Judas.

This time, there were a lot of participants in the meeting, white and white, black and yellow, and yellow and yellow. The age group was more middle-aged, and there was a formal name tag in front of each seat.

Compared with Jason, Gan Jing knew quite a few people this time, but he came a little later, and after taking his seat, he just nodded to the people he knew.

The chief executive chaired the meeting was the vice chairman of Paramount Pictures, Moore. His position in Paramount was high and powerful, and he was also trying to determine the strategy of "Padana" at this meeting, lest the direction go wrong. cause loss.

At the beginning of the meeting, Moore gave A-Gump the opportunity to speak, and asked him to state his ideas, followed by lengthy data analysis and investigation and research.

Although it was a bit boring, what Gan Jing listened to was not completely boring. He took it as an opportunity to see the normal work of the giant.

The film and television companies in Hollywood have already formed a professional and strict film and television work process, especially for a company that stands at the top like Paramount. Gan Jing secretly compared the style of his own company's usual meetings.

Well, there are still some gaps.

In the end, as expected, it can be said that it was out of contempt before, but the serious Paramount quickly noticed the competitive impact and subject matter advantages that "Focus" would produce, and it was not difficult to decide to turn "Padana" into a Up for Best Documentary Oscar.

Then, beyond Gan Jing's expectations, he said that he would hand over the rights to the first cut of the film to Jason who was sitting firmly.

"For this movie, Mr. Jansen neither directed nor acted in it, nor even appeared on the set. With all due respect, I am very puzzled by this decision." Gan Jing still spoke after hearing this, since he came Well, it's not for nothing.

Moore looked at A-Gump very calmly: "I believe that Jason is enough to complete this task. A-Gump, you may not know him very well, but please believe in our prudence and importance."

At this point, it seems hard to say anything.

However, as a leading actor who is very responsible and even overly responsible, Gan Jing suddenly had a flash of light in his mind and had a bold idea.

"I think I am more suitable to edit this work."

Gan Jing said this sentence with a smile, and then saw Jason's expression slowly fade from shock.

Yes, I can do it.

　Let's put Chapter 2 tomorrow morning. It's a bit stuck, so I'll add more on Saturday.
