Chapter 716 Wei Yang: Do you really think I’m a tough guy?
Although Wei Yang's attitude was very cold, Wu Ershan still found a way to get his message across and offered Boss Wei very favorable investment conditions.

Let’s put it this way, if Wei Yang invests 1 yuan, he can get a share of 1.2 to 1.5 yuan, and it also comes with some rights that other investors do not have.

But Boss Wei, who had made up his mind, remained unmoved.

Perhaps the news was leaked by a middleman, or perhaps the crew of "Fengshen" failed to maintain confidentiality, and the matter was later leaked.

The outside world was not aware of Wei Yang’s true thoughts and thought that he was not optimistic about the "Fengshen" project.

Now, Wuershan was completely helpless. He failed to get the investment from Boss Wei and scared away a group of potential investors.

After all, Boss Wei is well-known in the industry for his keen eyesight. Who would dare to throw money into a project that he doesn't think is promising?

You have to know that the cost of "Fengshen" is very high, and the investment crews of normal size would not look down on it, but if the investment is too high, the financiers will definitely be very cautious. After all, no one's money comes from the wind, and most investors still value the actual profits.

After Wei Yang’s “guidance from the immortal”, not only did those who had not yet voted no longer dare to vote, but even those who had already voted began to regret it.

It is rumored that some investors of "Fengshen" have been clamoring to withdraw their investment, and even the crew's largest financier, Beijing Culture, has been reported to be interested in transferring part of its shares.

If Wu Ershan can't appease these people, there's no point in making a trilogy. The crew of "Fengshen" is completely screwed.

Wei Yang roughly heard about the affairs of the "Fengshen" crew, and he didn't care whether Wu Ershan could stabilize the situation.

Anyway, he didn't say anything. It was all made up by outsiders. It had nothing to do with him from beginning to end. There was no need and he would not refute the rumors for Wuershan.

After attending the celebration banquet for "The Wandering Earth", Wei Yang dealt with some matters and then joined the crew of "The Story of Minglan".

As for the second young master Wei, he will have to be a left-behind child for a short period of time and move to Hengdian after everything is arranged.

The child is pitiful too. At such a young age, he can only live with his grandparents, accompanied by a nanny and a confinement nanny. He lives in a top-notch luxury house in Shanghai with an area of ​​several thousand square meters and misses his parents...

...

Hengdian, Jade Mansion

When Zhao Liying came back from work, she couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the house that had been cleaned from inside to outside.

"I have already cleaned it up before, so there is no need to go through so much trouble."

Wei Yang shook his head and looked around unsatisfiedly: "I still think this house is a bit small. How about changing it? Ramen has been used to living in a villa since he was a child. He can't live happily in such a small place."

"You really treat your son like a puppy."

Zhao Liying rolled her eyes at him and said, "He's just so lazy. No matter how big the house is, he won't walk around. Besides, it's not like we haven't lived in Hengdian before. The child has adapted well to it."

Wei Yang felt the same way. One should not spoil children too much. If they become ignorant of worldly matters, how can they become independent in the future?

The main reason is that the child is too young and has come out to "work" with his parents, so he can't help but feel distressed and guilty. Normally, Boss Wei would not spoil the child so much.

"Okay, let's live like this for now, and we'll deal with it later if the child doesn't get used to it."

Wei Yang stopped worrying and invited Zhao Liying to eat. His aunt had been doing housework for most of the day and must be very tired, so Wei Yang asked her to have a rest and he cooked himself.

"Sour cabbage, minced pork and bamboo shoots, how did you know I wanted to eat this?"

"I asked Auntie, your appetite has been poor these past two days, try something sour to stimulate your appetite."

Wei Yang served Zhao Liying some rice and recommended the dry pot chicken wings and shrimps he made. He performed exceptionally well on this dish today and if he hadn't been waiting for Zhao Liying, he would have finished half of it just now.

"Yeah, it's delicious."

Zhao Liying was very supportive and Wei Yang was in a very good mood. He took photos and posted them on his Moments, which attracted a lot of likes.

Wei Yang’s circle of friends includes many business tycoons, all of whom are wealthy and knowledgeable.

You tell people how much money you make, what mansion you buy, what antiques you collect, and people will just respond with a few words of flattery or even ignore you.

But if you cook a delicious meal, catch a big fish, hit the green with one shot, and your child gets first place in the exam, many people will say you are awesome.

In the past few years that Wei Yang has been in the circle of friends, he has seen people competing with each other in golf skills, secretly comparing whose child can get into a better university based on real ability, and at most comparing whose company has outstanding business or breakthrough achievements, but he has never seen anyone competing with each other in terms of wealth.

Even if they show off their wealth, they only do so in small private circles, or on other social media platforms such as Weibo, gaining the envy and jealousy of netizens.

Showing off in front of a bunch of deep-rooted bosses in the circle of friends is too low...

Seeing Wei Yang posting on WeChat Moments, Zhao Liying also wanted to post, but was stopped by Boss Wei.

Don't think that he doesn't know what Zhao Liying is thinking. She is posting on WeChat Moments, but in reality she might be trying to provoke someone who pays "special attention" to her. Wei Yang doesn't want to cause trouble.

"What a pity this time. If I had known that The Wandering Earth would be such a big hit, I would have gone to get a role."

While eating, the two talked about the celebration party of "The Wandering Earth", and Zhao Liying was quite regretful.

She and Guo Fan have known each other for a long time. Her first movie "You Are the One" was directed by Guo Fan, and they have a pretty good relationship.

During the filming of "The Wandering Earth", Zhao Liying specifically asked Guo Fan if he wanted to make a cameo appearance to help out, but the other party said that they did not need anyone, and she did not care about it afterwards.

Thinking about it now, Zhao Liying does feel a little regretful.

Wei Yang took a bite of the chicken wing and looked up at her: "There are only a few female roles in this movie, and none of them are suitable for you."

Wei Yang is not making this up. There are only two main female characters in "The Wandering Earth".

The heroine Han Duoduo is a young girl, which she cannot play. There is also a female medical soldier but her role is too few. It is a pure waste of pay to use a top star like Zhao Liying.

She could be given more roles, but the rhythm of the film's story would be difficult to control. Not to mention that Guo Fan didn't agree, even Zhao Liying herself didn't agree.

Even the most spendthrift woman wouldn't dare to delay a project with a box office of 50 billion just to get some box office revenue for herself.

"I didn't say I'll be the lead actor, but I can make a cameo appearance. I'll ask Lao Guo later. He ignored me when I asked him to make a cameo appearance, but he turned around and asked Liu Shishi instead. What does that mean? I'm not as good as her?"

Boss Wei silently lowered his head and ate his meal. What else could it mean? He was looking for Guo Fan to lay a hidden plan for "The Wandering Earth 2".

If "The Wandering Earth 2" continues to be filmed, a prequel is one of the most common ideas. Liu Shishi, who plays a key plot role, will naturally become the heroine of the second part.

Only Wei Yang knows this hidden chess piece!

Even Guo Fan himself has not yet determined the plot direction of "The Wandering Earth 2". He just has a rough idea, which needs to be compared and considered with other directions.

As for why Liu Shishi was arranged and Zhao Liying, who had a better relationship with Guo Fan, was persuaded to withdraw, it was not because Boss Wei was partial, but because if the script was not changed, the heroine of "The Wandering Earth 2" would be a female astronaut.

Have you ever seen an astronaut who is less than 1.6 meters tall?
There are strict standards for height and weight in the selection of astronauts. They cannot be too tall or too short. In addition, Zhao Liying has small hands and feet, so she looks delicate and thin. The audience may even question whether she can wear a space suit.

Liu Shishi is obviously much better. Not only does she have a standard figure, but she is also good at fighting scenes.

Of course, Boss Wei would never say these words even if he was beaten to death. If asked, it was Guo Fan who found Liu Shishi himself, and he knew nothing about it.

Ahem, houses in Shanghai are not easy to get!

Zhao Liying had no idea what Wei Yang was thinking. She was still a little upset about Liu Shishi getting a chance to star in "The Wandering Earth".

"There are only a few dozen seconds of footage in total, either lying in a coffin or in photos. Her fans have the nerve to use all kinds of marketing slogans to promote her. They have no shame at all."

Boss Wei also agreed with this point. No matter what happens in the next film, Liu Shishi only had a few scenes in the first part of "The Wandering Earth" and it was just a friendly cameo. There is no need to ride on the popularity of the film and forcibly ruin the goodwill of passers-by.

In the previous life, those billionaire movie stars, billionaire extras, and billionaire supporting actors were ridiculed too much.

Fortunately, although some fans had a brain short circuit, Liu Shishi herself and her team were relatively rational. They did not produce any similar press releases to embarrass themselves. They simply promoted the role as a friendly guest appearance.

But if someone else said this, it would be fine, but when Zhao Liying said it, there was an uncontrollable sour taste.

"Okay, this is something no one expected. Let's eat."

Wei Yang gave some advice and Zhao Liying nodded, but she still couldn't help but said something sarcastic.

"What's so great about a cameo? I'll talk to Lao Guo later and find a serious creator for a 50 billion movie."

"Hmm."

Wei Yang responded vaguely while shoveling rice into his mouth, wondering how Zhao Liying would react if Liu Shishi was really chosen to play the female lead in "The Wandering Earth 2".

Tsk, the value of the house in Shanghai given to Guo Fan is still rising...

...

Hengdian, the crew of "Do You Know?"

As soon as Wei Yang got out of the car, he saw a lot of shots being filmed, both overtly and covertly. He looked at the producer, who came forward to explain.

Generally speaking, formal crews do not allow media paparazzi or fans to take secret photos of the crew on set.

Unless it is an urban outdoor scene, in a public place such as a street, market, or park, where people are coming and going, in full view of everyone, and everyone has a mobile phone in their hand, you can't stop them even if you want to.

But having said that, many times we cannot stop some Reuters photos from being exposed.

On the one hand, the paparazzi are too good at hiding and are hard to guard against. On the other hand, there are many insiders in the crew who sell material, and it is even harder to guard against thieves in the house.

Another thing is that the crew doesn't have much energy to defend their rights, so when they encounter Reuters, they basically send private messages to warn and demand that the content be taken down. Experienced media and marketing accounts have plenty of ways to deal with it.

Most film crews have limited budgets. Unless it is negative news, they will not spend money on lawsuits over Reuters, so most of them just let it go.

In addition, there is another important reason why it cannot be stopped despite repeated bans, which is that many so-called Reuters are actually publicity conducted by the crew or artists contacting the media.

If the crew wants to maintain a certain level of popularity, they will come up with some materials and make it a hot topic every now and then.

The demands on artists are even more varied, including dedication marketing, hard-working marketing, boyfriend marketing, appearance marketing, and even those who specialize in interactive CP promotion.

There are so many tricks, it's jaw-dropping!
After Zhuo Wei, the main income of some paparazzi accounts is not to make money by filming negative materials, but to cooperate with artists to hype themselves up, which makes money steadily and safely.

Even those gossip marketing accounts derive part of their income from the public relations fees of major film crews and artists.

The industry is like this, and "Knowing" is no exception!
However, such a large crew does not need to spend too much money. There are paparazzi and marketing accounts to take advantage of the popularity. Just give them some travel expenses and ask them to pay attention to their tone.

There really are paparazzi who are not afraid of death and are not afraid of leading the trend. The average crew does not have the energy and budget to fight a lawsuit.

With a large crew like "Knowing Your Destiny" and a giant like Blue Whale behind it, there is definitely no shortage of legal affairs.

Not to mention, today's situation involves Boss Wei, and no paparazzi or marketing account wants to test the weight of the famous "Xuhui Tumbler".

Wei Yang was already very familiar with this kind of situation, and he was obviously not stage fright or anything like that. He walked into the crew with a normal expression under many cameras.

After his figure disappeared, a paparazzi was holding a camera, looking at his own footage with relish.

"This aura is simply amazing. If we add some powerful background music later, the data will definitely look good."

The other paparazzi's position wasn't so good, and the footage was just so-so. Seeing this guy looking so happy, I couldn't help but pour cold water on him.

"Isn't this scene a bit too big? There are nearly 30 bodyguards leading the way. Will some people say I'm being arrogant? That would be bad if it causes negative public opinion."

The paparazzi holding the camera sneered, "If you don't have enough class and put on a show, you're just being a big shot. If you're really awesome, no matter how big the show is, people will only praise you for walking like a dragon or a tiger, showing off your domineering attitude."

Another paparazzi thought so too. If any other top star were to happen to us in the same situation today, he would definitely make some comments about being pretentious.

But given Boss Wei's fame and wealth, it wouldn't be too weird if the number of people around him doubled. People would instinctively put the super boss in another dimension. If Wei Yang came alone, they would be surprised.

"Damn it, a real man should be like this. I wish I were Wei Yang."

The paparazzi cursed and swore, and if they saw Jack Ma, they would say something sarcastically, saying that if this guy didn't have money he wouldn't be able to find a partner in our village and so on.

But facing Boss Wei, it was truly a 360-degree crushing victory, which was in line with most ordinary people's fantasy of successful people, and was so "perfect" that it made people despair.

Apart from forcibly standing on the moral high ground to despise the lifestyle, or directly attacking capitalists, there is no clear weakness in the attack.

Even Hupu, which is known as the base camp of straight men, had a vote before, where people chose to exchange lives with a real person. After eliminating some sensitive areas, Wei Yang defeated many stars and wealthy people and made it into the top three.

If there weren't so many Hupu Sports fans and many men had a neutral impression of Wei Yang for various reasons, he would have had a chance of reaching the top.

It is worth mentioning that many Hupu users choose to exchange with Wei Yang for two main reasons.

One is to spend money to revitalize Chinese football and basketball, and then go to the NBA or the top five leagues to buy a team to play with and form a super legendary set, such as Ronaldo + Messi, James + Curry.

The other is to win over beautiful Chinese, Japanese and Korean stars such as Liu Tianxian, Gao Yuanyuan, Ishihara Satomi, Aragaki Yui, Lim Yoona, Taylor and others, and have fun with them every night.
