I want to make headlines

Chapter 836 Good Assistant (Two in One)

Paramount's public relations efforts to impact the Oscars this year are not that great, mainly because the goal is to shift from competing for best film to best documentary. These two awards do not exist at the same level.

But because of this, Paramount felt that this documentary must be obtained, otherwise there would be some small embarrassment-it was already a relegation competition, and Paramount was dignified anyway.

"Boss, Paramount doesn't seem to have offered to help you compete for Best Actor, right?" Arwen has been by the boss's side all the time, and she is Gan Jing's most adaptable assistant so far.

"The difficulty of being an actor is no less than that of the best film, or even more difficult." Gan Jing was not surprised that Ah Wen would ask such a question, "Didn't you meet Leonard two days ago? The event started very early, and the "Padana" in my hand took the route to hit the judges from a realistic perspective. Of course, acting skills are needed in the movie, but the whole thing is to smash people with real stories rather than my personal acting skills. , Therefore, everyone is very tacit in their hearts."

"What if, wouldn't it be icing on the cake if we win it?" Ah Wen was slightly annoyed.

Gan Jing laughed at it: "The center of gravity is out of place. I agreed with Paramount's direction from the beginning of the project. Besides, why should Paramount help me win personal honors?"

"But...but..." Ah Wen wanted to say something else.

Gan Jing waved his hand: "Let's not talk about this, let's take a break today and go shopping. Tomorrow, someone from CCTV will come to record blessings for overseas Chinese, and in two days we have to fly back to attend the annual meeting."

The schedule is still tight.

Arwen nodded. There was supposed to be a dinner with the Oscar judges at noon today, but because of his old age, the other party suffered a heart attack and was sent to the hospital. Naturally, the plan fell through.

This was an unexpected situation and an unexpected break.

"I've heard the name of Disneyland for a long time, but I haven't been there, so I went there today to see it."

Gan Jing sat in the car and told the driver, and Ah Wen who heard this at the side naturally knew that the boss didn't have a sudden idea, he was considering the feasibility of the domestic project.

As the saying goes, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will never end in a hundred battles. If you don’t have time today, the boss will take the time to take a look when you come.

There are two Disneylands in the United States, one of which is in the southeast of downtown Los Angeles, and the distance is quite convenient.

After arriving at the destination soon, Gan Jing got out of the car and found that there were still a lot of tourists, and the languages ​​that floated into his ears were also varied.

The exclusive driver assigned by Paramount went to park and waited for the call of these two at any time.

Gan Jing and Ah Wen each wore a face-covering sunglasses, they hid in the crowd and prepared to enter the park to browse.

"Hey, what are the group of people doing over there?" Ah Wen suddenly pointed to the east direction and said.

Gan Jing glanced sideways and found that the east side was surrounded by a group.

Ever since, the two walked over out of curiosity.

"Hey, are you shooting commercials?" Ah Wen took a closer look and was quite familiar with this posture, then took a closer look, "Is it Hathaway?"

Gan Jing blinked and nodded, it was indeed Hathaway.

"Success, let's go, don't disturb other people's work." Gan Jing lowered his voice, turned around and wanted to leave, the colleagues most understood the hard work.

However, Ah Wen felt a little strange when he heard this.

Just as the two turned around, a shout suddenly came from behind.

"Forrest Gump."

A tone of confirmation rather than a question.

Gan Jing's heart skipped a beat, can you recognize this?Wearing sunglasses and a sun hat too!
He turned around slowly, caught a glimpse of the assistant's strange eyes out of the corner of his eye, and then saw Hathaway walking forward.

"Hi, long time no see." Hathaway came over to say hello.

Gan Jing showed a standard smile, took off his sunglasses, and heard the low exclamation of the crowd, said with a smile: "Annie, what a coincidence, you have an endorsement here?"

"Yes." Hathaway said generously, "What about you?"

"I just have one day free today, so I came here for a stroll, but you stopped me, I'm afraid it's not easy to go shopping." Gan Jing shrugged and said helplessly.

"Who told you to leave without even saying a word?" Hathaway raised her chin provocatively, "You deserve it."

Awen next to her shrank into a transparent shape, lowered her head and secretly pricked up her ears to listen to the conversation between the two. Thanks to a certain period of intensive training, her English is now quite good.

"Aren't you afraid of disturbing you?" Gan Jing said with a fake smile, "What if I get you out of shape, what can I do?"

"Hmph." Hathaway recalled the time of filming "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", squinted, and ordered, "You go shopping first, and have lunch together."

Hearing this tone, Gan Jing tilted his head, looked at the expression on her face, hesitated for a second, and then agreed: "Yes, Ms. Anne."

Hathaway nodded in satisfaction, turned around and continued her endorsement shoot.

Gan Jing shook his head slightly. Of course, he and Hathaway had no problem getting along. They were very close at one time, but due to their inadvertence and busy work, they gradually lost contact with each other. Well, at least, they didn't contact each other deliberately.

"What do you mean by that gossip expression on your face?" Gan Jing glanced at the assistant and said angrily.

"Ah? Is it so obvious?" Arwen was surprised.

"These two words are clearly written on his forehead." Gan Jing was very sure.

Ah Wen immediately said in frustration: "It seems that I can't be an actor anymore, I don't know how to hide and express emotions."

"It's more than enough to be an actor in a TV series." Gan Jing said casually, "Let's go, hurry up and take a stroll, before this group of people feel embarrassed to ask me for an autograph."

He put on his sunglasses and sunhat again, and disappeared among the crowd while turning around.

It was like walking around freely for two hours. More and more tourists and fans knew the news of A-Gump’s arrival. His way of wandering was not easy, but even so, Gan Jing still stayed. A general impression.

The classic Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Snow White and the seven dwarves, these images have never been so clearly presented before the eyes, as if they brought people back into the work at once.

"The kids really like it."

Gan Jing observed that many tourists came here as a family, and the children in twos and threes were laughing and making noises, very happy.

"Ah Wen, what do you think will happen if we don't make these foreign images in our country, but just make our own classic works?" Gan Jing draws inferences, thinking about the domestic situation.

"For example?" Arwen regards the discussion with the boss as a channel for his ability to improve.

"For example, Calabash Baby, Monkey King, Nezha, Zhu Bajie, many images are actually from our series of mythological works. The copyright is open copyright, and we can use it directly." Gan Jing went to a corner that few people pay attention to. Here, while looking at the scenery in the park, thinking about the feasibility.

Awen pondered for a while, and honestly expressed his thoughts: "Boss, I don't think the children of today may recognize this. What do they watch, such as Hokage, Conan, and SpongeBob SquarePants? Monkey King and Nezha are indeed in our culture. image, but not very trendy."

fashionable?

Gan Jing fell into deep thought. He didn't have data to support him. What do children like nowadays?
In addition, although he has participated in many types of movies, he really has never acted in what children love to watch. At most, he has dubbed animations, and he is not an expert in this regard.

"Actually, if it's a park, it's a very long-term job." Gan Jing said after considering, "I know that Disney is an amusement park that first makes an animated image and then makes it. Way to go. Last year’s “Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage” released in China received a good response, and if domestic animation works hard, it should still be possible.”

Ah Wen went to the cinema to watch the return of the Great Sage, and she heard the boss say this, and she felt that it was quite reasonable.

"Well... it seems to be. However, I think Mr. Liu and the others don't agree with this idea very much. After all, they have considered many factors." Arwen knew the situation of the discussion between the boss and the people in the company.

Gan Jing stretched his waist and said with a smile, "The truth may not necessarily be in the hands of the majority."

Buzzing, the vibration of the mobile phone interrupted the exchange of opinions between the two.

Gan Jing said while holding his mobile phone: "This matter really deserves an extremely serious investigation. This time when I return to China, I will have a face-to-face chat with Lao Chen."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the phone screen and found that it belonged to Hathaway.

"Hey, Annie, I'm done shopping. Oh, you're done too, um...okay, see you later."

Gan Jing hung up the phone and greeted his assistant: "Let's go, let's go eat."

Awen followed immediately.

However, after walking a few steps, Gan Jing turned around and said, "You are free to eat whatever you want at noon, and I will reimburse you for it."

Arwen was stunned for a while, and then realized later, is this not letting him eat along with him?

cough……

"Okay." The assistant replied wittily.

Gan Jing continued to walk forward, but Ah Wen always felt that his pace was a little faster than usual when he looked at the boss's back.

What made the boss uncharacteristically not bring himself, you know, since arriving in the United States, he has been in decline?

What made the boss behave differently than usual? You know, he has always been approachable, so why did he turn around and leave when he met a friend?

What makes the boss so entangled?
Is it a contradiction?Is it emotion?Is it beauty?

Unbeknownst to Awen, she took a quick glance at the reserved high-end restaurant and left.

But just at this glance, she saw that the box was very large, the sofa was soft, and the separate bathroom. Well, the restaurant is indeed very high-end and has comprehensive functions.

Old friends reunited, long time no see, happy atmosphere.

This lunch, Hathaway ate to her heart's content, and Gan Jing was also to her heart's content.

In the afternoon, Gan Jing saw his assistant again.

"Hey, boss, are you okay?" Awen asked like this.

Gan Jing didn't change his face, nodded and said: "It's good. Well, the people from CCTV will come over tomorrow. You should contact them in advance today. After all, they are people from the TV station. Don't let them think that the hospitality is not good enough."

Awen listened to the forced transfer of the topic, and agreed.

Buzz buzz, the phone vibrated again.

Gan Jing took it out, looked at the screen, his expression changed slightly, and he pressed the answer button: "Hi, Scarlett, why are you calling me? Haha, I didn't just arrive in America today, Your reason is very lame. Um... this afternoon..."

Awen saw the boss's eyes shake, and then heard the next sentence.

"I have something to do in the afternoon. I'll treat you to dinner tonight. Are you in Los Angeles? By the way, where did you sign your foreign agency contract? All right, let's talk in detail tonight."

When the phone was hung up, the boss had a serious expression on his face.

"Boss, what are we going to do this afternoon?" Awen asked.

Gan Jing regained his composure and replied, "Going back to the hotel, I need to think about something."

Hulala, the two of them headed home directly in one car.

For a whole afternoon, Arwen neither saw the boss nor received his call.

In the evening, she saw the spirited boss.

"Ah Wen, in the evening, you contacted the CCTV recording team that will come tomorrow, and the Chinese group in Los Angeles also contacted, and it will save trouble if you try to finish the filming in one go tomorrow."

Gan Jing had previously recorded blessings from overseas Chinese because he was not on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala because of the schedule. He also declined the invitation to be on the stage this year.

However, due to the popularity, celebrities, and the habit of showing up in the past, the CCTV director team agreed to A-Gump's proposal to record blessings.

"No problem, Boss, I promise to complete the task." Awen assured him.

In this way, after the evening, she lost the trace of A-Gump again after she got the boss's order.

This time it was longer than noon.

It wasn't until 11:30 in the evening that Ah Wen saw the boss who came back wearing sunglasses.

"How is it? The recording team didn't miss the flight or anything?" Gan Jing entered the suite, took off his sunglasses, and asked about the progress of the work.

"No, they will arrive at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and the local Chinese delegation will be assembled at eight o'clock. Everything is going well." Ah Wen reported.

Gan Jing nodded slightly.

"Boss, drink tea and moisturize your throat. I'm afraid you will have to record several times tomorrow." Ah Wen handed over the tea that he had prepared.

Gan Jing took it habitually, thinking about the next thing, suddenly felt that the taste of the tea in his mouth was different from usual, and looked down, there was wolfberry in the tea.

Ok……

Gan Jing finished drinking silently, and then criticized: "Ah Wen, don't change the magic tea easily, it's not good to change after you get used to the taste."

Arvin nodded.

"However, it's okay to taste once in a while." Gan Jing handed the cup back, and said very naturally, "Let's have another cup."

"Okay, boss."

Ah Wen is a good assistant, always silently performing his duties, even if there is some gossip, he just keeps it in his heart and lets it burn.
