I want to make headlines

Chapter 214 Influence and Candidates (Two in One)

After the Cannes Awards Ceremony, Gan Jing had a wonderful but confused night.

The matter of drinking fragments is really helpless, Gan Jing wakes up with only a headache and a vague memory of alcohol, and even now he can feel that the coating of his tongue is a bit astringent.

As for the wonderful...

Seeing the messy red lip marks on his face in the mirror, Gan Jing couldn't laugh or cry.

He should feel wonderful, just by hearing the word "supermodel", he should know what a beautiful girl the owner of this lip print is, not to mention that this is in France, a romantic country.

Would there have been a romantic story if I hadn't been drunk last night?
But now I can only rub my temples and stand next to an old man, Chen Huihong, trying to remember...

"Old Chen, what is this person's name?" Gan Jing was sure that he really couldn't remember what happened.

"What?" Chen Huihong pretended to be stupid, his eyes were full of ridicule.

Gan Jing had no choice but to point to his own face and the lip marks on it: "This one!"

"Haha, she's Elsa." Lao Chen stopped teasing Gan Jing and gave the answer.

Nodding his head, Gan Jing repeated: "Elsa."

"Yes, the name means 'happy girl'." Chen Huihong continued to explain.

Gan Jing glanced at this guy in surprise, wondering, "You know all of this?"

Chen Huihong laughed "hehe" for a while before laughing: "You told me this in a daze, I just told you what you said again."

Gan Jing was finally speechless.

It seemed that I had a good chat with that girl.

He shook his head, put the matter aside for the time being, walked to the faucet, washed his face with water, and wiped away all the evidence of lip marks on it.

After doing this, he was stunned for a while, and when he saw Lao Chen who was sitting on the sofa watching TV as if nothing had happened, he coughed lightly.

"cough."

"What's the matter? Your throat hurts from drinking?" Old Chen said without turning his head.

Gan Jing feigned anger: "You treat the new Best Actor in Cannes like this?!"

Chen Huihong said, "Your Excellency, come and take a seat. I have prepared a good hangover tea for you!"

Gan Jing groaned and sat on the soft sofa, just as he and Lao Chen looked at each other, both of them suddenly burst into laughter.

One was just recognized by the Cannes Film Festival last night, and the other witnessed the milestone of his artist, which is undoubtedly a very pleasant thing.

Of course, making people happy is not only the glory of actor, but also a series of follow-up effects.

The most intuitive thing is the contract on the coffee table - Givenchy intends to use Gan Jing as their spokesperson for tailor-made clothing in the Asia-Pacific region.

Compared with Gan Jing's demeanor on the red carpet at the beginning, the Cannes Best Actor crown is undoubtedly a heavy weight, which is enough for them to propose better conditions and treatment.

Gan Jing didn't care too much about this, but just asked Lao Chen to pay attention to the appropriateness of the endorsement. He didn't know that this was the dream of male stars in several countries in Asia.

As a luxury fashion brand with a long history, even a short contract for leather goods may be the beginning of a friendly relationship between the two, not to mention that it has now been upgraded to tailoring.

"Hey, the phone is out of battery." Gan Jing went back to the room and took out the phone. When he found that there was no battery, he plugged in the charger first, and then read several scripts on the coffee table.

"This is just the script you took yesterday. There are still promised scripts that have not been delivered." Chen Huihong reminded.

"Ah."

Gan Jing sank on the sofa flipping through the script, without raising his head, he mumbled a sentence.

But after a while, he threw away the script in his hand and complained: "What kind of shit is this written, what a shitty script!"

Chen Huihong shrugged, saw the script folded on his knees, and wisely did not speak.

Soon, as he expected, Gan Jing continued to throw away the second and third...

Gan Jing was helpless, and murmured to himself: "Drinking is really not a good thing, and I won't drink it next time. How can these broken scripts have the face to pass in front of the actor?!"

"It's only because of the film emperor that I gave the script. If it wasn't for this, people wouldn't be looking for you."

Sighing, Gan Jing pushed all the scripts aside, and turned on the phone which was charged.

The mobile phone started to vibrate crazily as soon as it was turned on, and there were constant text message reminders lighting up.

After a while, the phone returned to silence.

Gan Jing had expected this situation, let the phone calm down for a while, and then looked at it one by one.

"Gan Jing, you are awesome! Congratulations! Come back to celebrate and have a good drink!" Sun Honglei's congratulatory message was the first one, just looking at it, Gan Jing's temple seemed to hurt again.

"Congratulations to Gan Jing for being crowned emperor in Cannes!" Director Chen Kaige congratulated.

"Mr. Gan, hello, I am Yang Li, the editor-in-chief of "China Entertainment News". I would like to make an appointment with you for a special interview. When will you return to China? If you are abroad, we can also send someone there." Gan Jing once said I have been interviewed by this newspaper, but this is the first time the editor-in-chief has asked for an interview.

"Ms. Gan, I am a very quiet director. You have been on our show once before. This time, we want you to share your life experience. When do you have a schedule?"

"Mr. Gan, I heard that you haven't accepted the endorsement yet. I'm Chen Hao, head of FAW's public relations. Do you have time to chat?"

"Teacher Gan..."

"Mr. Gan..."

Just one night later, the title of Mr. Gan suddenly became more and more, and the directors and actors who worked with him before spoke more politely.

There is a boundary between actor and non-actor, which represents the general understanding of an actor from the outside world. From then on, no matter where Gan Jing goes, people will know that Forrest Gump is very good.

you ask why?
Because he is the actor!
"Hey, Old Chen, I only found out that a trophy has such a big effect when I turned on my phone. Tsk tsk, it's really worth all my hard work." Gan Jing sighed.

"There must be a lot of things. Next, do you continue your original plan to go to the United States or go back to China to deal with these things?" After all, Chen Huihong was not the person involved, so he didn't have such a big emotion, and started to ask about the next affairs.

Gan Jing pondered for a while: "I'll give you the phone later, and you can read these text messages. As for endorsements, you can decide for yourself, there will be no shortage of money in a while; for film appointments...you contact and see, don't be like those guys on the sofa It’s unreliable. For the time being, I still plan to go to the United States to have a look.”

"Why don't you go back to China and experience the aura of being the Best Actor in Cannes face to face?" Old Chen smiled.

"I'm afraid I'll be lost as soon as I go back. I'd better take advantage of the wind and try Hollywood first. It would be even better if there is another leading role." Gan Jing was very satisfied after playing on his mobile phone for a while, and did not return to China for the time being. Accept the idea of ​​compliments.

Chen Huihong nodded, very relieved, Forrest Gump in this state is undoubtedly the best.

……

The newly promoted Cannes actor did not return to China, but the others who came to the film festival with him did.

Fan Xiaopang arrived at Beijing International Airport by flight. As soon as she arrived at the pick-up gate, she saw many reporters and fans, and she couldn't help smiling.

"Sister Bing, Sister Bing, what do you think of Gan Jing's winning the best actor?" A reporter moved the fastest and squeezed in the front.

Fan Xiaopang walked forward under the protection of the studio staff, and smiled without hesitation when he heard this question: "His acting skills are great, he works very hard, and he is a very good actor."

"Pang, what's your relationship? Are you dating?"

"No, we are just good friends." Fan Xiaopang's smile remained unchanged, and he added in his heart, although it was the first official meeting in Cannes.

"Sister Bing, do you know A-Gump's next itinerary? Will he return to China?"

"Sister Bing, I heard that Forrest Gump kissed a French beauty during the celebration banquet, what do you think?"

"Are you interested in Gan Jing? You are not a crew, how could you walk the red carpet together?"

There were many questions, but most of them were related to Gan Jing, which surprised Fan Xiaopang. She really didn't expect Gan Jing to have such a topic all of a sudden.

She quickened her pace, answering questions as she walked, mostly clichés, but also the truth, but this made the reporters who wanted to dig out big news a little unhappy, but Fan Xiaopang, who was drifting away, only stayed behind in a hurry. back.

As the first star to return to China, Fan Xiaopang was baptized by many reporters.

These topics about Gan Jing will not be diverted until other people also return to China one after another.

Two sixth-generation directors appeared in Cannes, one was shortlisted for the main competition unit, and the other was shortlisted for the Un Certain Regard unit, but the final result was nothing.

In fact, this is not surprising, but it is a bit subtle that an actor who is not from a major but only debuted for more than a year won the crown of actor.

Many people don't know how to dig deep, but they just have the impression that these two people can't do it, Gan Jingxing - even if they are not in the same position, the impression of passers-by is so simple and direct.

Of course, the passers-by are like this, and the reporters ignore it intentionally or unintentionally. They know what the readers like to watch-Wang Xiaoshuai's "Rizhao Mountain City" and Jia Zhangke's "Legend of the Sea" have failed, and Gan Jingfeng became the biggest winner.

"Director Wang, Director Wang, what do you think of Gan Jing? Do you think he has the strength of an actor? Does this represent the improvement of our Chinese actors' status in the world?"

Wang Xiaoshuai encountered such a problem when he first arrived in China.

He's not stupid, so he naturally answered the question with the words "Gan Jing's acting skills are good, the film is good", but when the reporter asked the question again, his face changed slightly.

"Gan Jing said in his acceptance speech that he is a pioneer and is willing to help those who come later. Director Wang, do you think his words are appropriate?"

This bastard reporter, Wang Xiaoshuai scolded in his heart, feeling that this reporter was just looking for trouble - as a sixth-generation director, he grew up in an environment where films were banned for a long time, and his relationship with the media was not very good.

"It's a good thing, he's still young and has great potential." He hurriedly ended the interview with a simple answer.

Immediately, the newspaper published the headline "Wang Xiaoshuai Suspected Dissatisfaction with Gan Jing's Award Speech", and after reprinting, the headline continued to change "The director of "Rizhao Mountain City" questioned the new actor".

When Wang Xiaoshuai saw this kind of report, he was about to explode. All these damages were caused by the damage!
And similar to him, Jia Zhangke also encountered the same problem.

Director Jia was very patient. As the chairman of the jury of the Cannes Short Film and Film Cornerstone Unit in 07, he answered the questions carefully.

"The Best Actor recognizes Gan Jing's acting skills. I went to see "Beautiful Mistakes" and Gan Jing's acting skills are well-deserved. Even, I think it is no problem to award him the best actor alone." Jia Zhangke said Highly rated.

"Every film worker who goes abroad is a pioneer. Jackie Chan is, I am, Zhang Ziyi is, and Gan Jing is naturally too. I am very pleased that he has such an attitude. When I saw him standing on the stage holding the best actor trophy At that time, I almost shed tears. Everyone should know how difficult it is for a yellow-skinned person to be recognized in the mainstream film industry, and they should all be proud of him."

Jia Zhangke said very emotionally, he really wants to see more Chinese people standing in foreign film festivals and making their voices heard.

Such a statement naturally made it into the news, and the topics #贾昌科力投油景# and #贾昌科隐话王小霸# were also released on Weibo. The latter is purely a disaster...

The influence of the Chinese Best Actor in Cannes continues to have an impact on the Chinese entertainment industry, affecting many actors, directors, and related practitioners.

Since mid-May, the first thing many people have said when they meet a reporter is, "What kind of person do you think Gan Jing is" or "What do you think the birth of another actor means?"
I haven't dealt with him at all, what do you ask me to do? !

I'm not an actor, I just want to make a movie, it's none of my business whether I'm born or not!

This is Gan Jing, although he is not here, but his legend is circulating here.

……

Regarding everything in China, Gan Jing has heard about it from Lao Chen, but he really realizes how popular he is from the rising attention of the system.

That fellow Old Chen might buy a naval force, might hook up with the media, but the attention of the system would not be deceiving.

This time, the aura of the best actor in Cannes is indeed the headline treatment for children without deception.

Gan Jing was comforted by being in the United States, but what followed was not his expected immediate investment in Hollywood, but instead he dealt with other official duties for several days in a row.

"What is this contractual right? You can simply say it, you don't need to explain it so clearly!"

"The follow-up funds will dilute my shares, right? How to guarantee it?"

"I don't need to send someone, why don't you just tell me if there's something else? Oh, no, right... Then we have to wait."

Because of taking a taxi once before, Gan Jing came into contact with people from the Uber company in the United States, and then made the decision to invest in Uber.

For the subsequent series of investments, the professionals he entrusted were negotiating with Uber, but he needed to know the final results one by one.

It's a pity that Gan Jing doesn't have such a reliable person in the United States. Although his manager Andy helped him with some matters, he couldn't focus on them endlessly.

Gan Jing needs a trustworthy and capable person to handle this matter.
