China Entertainment's whatever you want

Chapter 763 The Vitality of Youth

Gu Wei was very satisfied with the filming process over the past two months.

The movie "Life Events" he shot last year was also a good movie. The image of "Mo Sanmei" was very different from her previous roles, but it was still not as subversive as "Chen Guilin".

Different from the "great, glorious and righteous" roles he played in the past, the protagonist Chen Guilin in "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" is not a good person from the moment he appears on the stage.

He collected debts for the gang, killed the gang leader who was wanted for him in public, and blinded a policeman's eye while escaping. He was a very crazy gangster.

Even though he later killed two wanted criminals before him, it was because he was about to die and he was dissatisfied with the fact that he, a murderer, was not taken seriously by the police. He wanted to become famous.

Of course, Chen Guilin’s image is complex. He has a violent, crazy, and cruel side, but he also has a kind and soft side.

He is loyal and does not bully the weak. He will stand up to resist when he sees injustice. He saves Cheng Xiaomei and stands up for the mother and son who came to seek medical treatment after discovering the true face of the cult. Even if he ends up slaughtering everyone in the hall, he gives them a chance to escape.

The image of a criminal who has principles, bottom lines, and finally repents.

“To be honest, [Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils] is the most enjoyable movie I have made in recent years!”

At the wrap-up banquet, Gu Wei, Wen Muye, Wang Qianyuan, and Zhang Songwen, who were sitting at the main table, were drinking and chatting.

Gu Wei sighed as he thought about the two months of filming.

“This is probably the first time you play a role that is not a pure good guy. You should be considered an anti-hero in Chen Guilin.

In fact, I always feel that playing a villain is more exciting than playing a good guy, and it gives the actor more room to perform.

If you have the chance in the future, you can try to play a villain." Wang Qianyuan suggested with a smile.

"Teacher Wang, have you played a villain before?" Zhang Songwen asked casually.

"Of course I have, you can tell from my image that I am very suitable for playing villains.

When I was filming Saving Mr. Wu, I played the gangster who kidnapped Liu Dehua.

"[Saving Mr. Wu] is a good movie, and director Ding Sheng shot it really well!

Hua Zai and Mr. Wang also performed well!" Wen Mu also said.

“It’s interesting to talk about.

With my image, I originally thought that I would play many villain roles, such as robbers, bandits, killers, gangsters and so on.

I feel that my image and temperament are a bit similar to Sun Honglei.

But all the roles he played in the movies he filmed in recent years were positive ones. After "Saving Mr. Wu", he not only stopped playing villains, but instead played many police roles.

What [Break the Situation], [Lobster Detective], [Big Shot], [You Are the Murderer], all the same detective stories.

Last year, I was working with Wu Yan in the filming of "The Breaking Storm". I was a policeman, but he, who was so handsome, played a vicious gangster.

Wang Qianyuan complained half-jokingly.

His screen image has indeed become somewhat solidified in recent years. He was obviously very good at playing gangsters before, but I don’t know when it started, but directors all like to ask him to play a policeman.

"Haha, it's not surprising that Wu Yan's group plays the gangsters. The whole network is asking him to stop. There are Cheng Longs outside."

Gu Wei smiled and made a joke, and everyone laughed too.

“All joking aside, Wu Yan’s group’s performance as the gangster was really good.

Gu Wei, you can actually refer to him. You are both top handsome guys. If you want to change your acting style in the future, you can try to play some villains. "Wang Qianyuan suggested.

Gu Wei thought for a while.

"In fact, I have had similar ideas for a long time. Look at the movie I starred in this year, "Better Days", and the movie we are currently filming, "Zhou Chu", which are actually different from the movies I have filmed before.

In the first half of the year, I also filmed a movie called "Life Events", in which I played a somewhat decadent and cowardly funeral worker, which was also a new attempt."

Wen Mu also smiled and said: "Mr. Gu is one of the most hardworking actors I have ever seen. He has actually been trying different types of movies over the years.

The most amazing thing is that no matter what type of movie he makes, whether it is a martial arts film, a romance film, a police and gangster film, a science fiction film or even an artistic feature film, it can all be a big hit at the box office.

This kind of amazing box office appeal is unique in the domestic entertainment industry. I don’t know if there will be another like it in the future, but it is definitely unprecedented.

Even Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, and Stephen Chow are far behind Mr. Gu in terms of box office appeal!"

Gu Wei waved his hand and said, "Don't say that. Brother Cheng Long and Teacher Li Lianjie are Hollywood superstars. Their international influence is beyond my reach.

Stephen Chow is even more of a comedy master, and people say that there is only one Chow Hsing-chi in the century, and his status in the Chinese comedy film industry is this high."

As he said this, he raised his thumb and gave a comparison.

"You don't have to be so modest, we are all family!" Wang Qianyuan said to Gu Wei.

Then he looked at the others and said, "When I was filming [Blade Master] with Gu Wei, he had just debuted and looked a little immature. I never thought that his career would develop so dramatically. It's like he has been blessed with a breakthrough!
It is said that when God closes a door, he will open a window for him.

But it feels like God has opened multiple doors and windows for you. Don’t be too partial.”

"Hahaha"

After Wang Qianyuan finished speaking, everyone laughed. Gu Wei also smiled but didn't say anything.

Zhou Ye sat next to Gu Wei. Everyone was drinking and chatting. She drank her juice silently without interrupting, and occasionally turned her head to glance at Gu Wei.

After the wrap party, everyone drank a few more glasses out of joy.

Gu Wei was also a little drunk, and walked towards the hotel room with Zhou Ye's support.

In fact, with Gu Wei's alcohol tolerance, he was not drunk at all and did not need anyone's support. But after the party, Zhou Ye held his arm very naturally.

Tonight Zhou Ye wore a retro-style black tube top dress with a pearl necklace around her snow-white neck, her hair tied up, and bright red lips. She gave off the feeling of a retro socialite or a cold-faced rich girl.

It can be seen that today she has changed her usual style of being a lively girl and deliberately dressed in a mature manner.

I don’t know if it’s because everyone was wearing very thin clothes, but after Zhou Ye, who had been sticking close to Gu Wei all the way to the room, a blush appeared on her face and fair chest.

Gu Wei could also feel the fragrance and softness of the girl snuggling beside him.

"What perfume did Xiaoye wear today? It doesn't smell this good normally."

Gu Wei suddenly asked after entering the room.

"I usually don't wear perfume on set, but today at the wrap party I wanted to make it more formal so I wore a little."

Gu Wei nodded.

"This perfume suits your style very well"

As he said that, he walked behind the bar, opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of ice cola, and turned to look at Zhou Ye.

"Would you like anything to drink?"

Zhou Ye shook his head.

"I didn't drink any alcohol just now. I was drinking juice. I'm not thirsty now." Gu Wei closed the refrigerator, opened the iced Coke and took a sip. The slight drunkenness he had just felt had slowly dissipated.

"It's getting late. Let's go back and rest. We have to catch a flight back early tomorrow morning."

"Brother Wei, you drank a lot today. I want to take care of you here."

Zhou Ye lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at Gu Wei, and mustered up great courage to say these words.

Gu Wei walked to her side with a smile, put out his hand to hold Zhou Ye's chin and gently lifted her face. Zhou Ye's face was flushed, and she even avoided Gu Wei's gaze.

It felt like smoke was coming out of her shy head.

This look was even cuter in Gu Wei's eyes.

"Have you thought it through? You really won't leave. You want to stay and take care of me?" Gu Wei confirmed again with a smile.

"Really?" Zhou Ye was shy and nervous, and his speech was a little halting.

Gu Wei smiled and shook his head. He was not a good person. There was no reason to push away the little white sheep who had come to him on his own initiative.

However, he still wanted to give Zhou Ye another chance.

"I'm going to take a shower, you can leave anytime during this time"

Then he turned and walked towards the bathroom.

Gu Wei left, leaving Zhou Ye alone in the living room. She sat on the sofa, the blush on her face still fading. She listened to the faint sound of water coming from the bathroom, feeling nervous, shy, and expectant.
To be honest, even she herself was a little surprised at her courage.

She once fantasized about something happening between her idol and boss, just like the plot in many idol dramas, where the domineering president falls in love with me.

But in reality, after she had been in [Wei Ming Tian Xia] for a few years, she deeply realized a truth: if she didn't take the initiative to want something to happen between her and her boss, there would be no hope at all.

Gu Wei is indeed a domineering president, but she is not the little wife who is exclusively favored by the domineering president.

To be honest, the image of boss Gu Wei in her mind is complicated.

First of all, Gu Wei is her idol that she has liked for many years. Zhou Ye started to like him when she was in middle school and was his loyal fan.

Later, by chance, she filmed the TV series "Wei Ming Tian Xia" and then signed a contract to join the company. She worked under her idol and integrated into Gu Wei's circle of friends. She felt that she was super lucky and it was very fulfilling to chase stars to this extent.

However, due to their close contact and working in the same company, Zhou Ye also understood what kind of person her boss was.

It’s true that he is handsome, gentle, and rich, but it’s also true that he is a playboy.

She didn't know all the scandals about Gu Wei that had been circulating on the Internet over the years, but from what the company staff said and what she had seen herself, she confirmed that her boss was undoubtedly a sea king.

So on the one hand, she hopes that something will happen with the idol she has liked since her school days, but on the other hand, she also has some concerns.

But over the past few years, her concerns have almost disappeared.

Because even though the boss is a scumbag, he doesn't cheat on her, which is very embarrassing.

This time, they filmed "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" together. Being together every day helped Zhou Ye to slowly build up her courage. The walk that night made her even more excited.

Zhou Ye had a hunch that if she didn't seize this good opportunity, she might only be able to be a small artist working for a boss in the future.

In order to chase his idol, for his future, and for the love in his heart, Zhou Ye plucked up the courage to take the initiative.

As long as the boss doesn't refuse, she will get a great deal no matter how you look at it. It's something that many female celebrities in the circle dream of.

Just when I was thinking that the sound of water in the bathroom had stopped, after a while, Gu Wei came out wearing a brown bathrobe.

"I really didn't leave~"

Gu Wei walked up to Zhou Ye, looked at her and smiled.

Zhou Ye looked at Gu Wei, who was only a ruler tall, and his eyes drifted from his face to the muscular chest muscles revealed under the big V-neck.

She swallowed and said, "I said I would take care of you, of course I won't leave.

Do I need to take a shower?"

Gu Wei moved closer, put his arms around Zhou Ye's slender waist, lowered his head slightly and looked into her eyes, their noses almost touching.

He exhaled softly: "Okay, but just wash it in a while~"

As he said this, he moved forward a little and kissed the other person's delicate lips.

Zhou Ye first opened his eyes in surprise, then slowly closed them, gradually sinking into Gu Wei's skillful kissing skills, from being at a loss at the beginning to a somewhat awkward response, and gradually immersed in this kiss.

The kiss lasted a little long. When Zhou Ye came to his senses, she had already come to the big bed in the bedroom, and she didn't know when her long skirt was taken off.

Zhou Ye is a girl with a petite frame. She is not tall but has very good proportions. She is slender, has a thin waist, firm buttocks, long and round thighs, and a well-proportioned and healthy body.

Her skin is white and delicate, like a freshly peeled egg, and her whole body exudes a youthful aura from the inside out.

The unforgettable night passed, and the next morning Gu Wei boarded a plane to Beijing.

He sat on the sofa in the cabin, drinking coffee and reading the emails from the company.

Zhou Ye went with him, but because she was tired from last night, she went into the bedroom and fell asleep as soon as she got on the plane.

After more than 20 days of communication and bidding, the broadcasting platform of "Joy of Life" was finally determined.

On the Internet side, Tencent and iQiyi won the online broadcasting rights, while the TV station sold the first round of broadcasting rights to CCTV-8.

This costume drama, which is favored by many platforms and satellite TV stations, has a copyright transaction price of up to 1800 million for a single episode, and a total price of 46 million for 8.28 episodes.

Although it is not as high as the transaction amount of over 10 billion when costume dramas were the most popular in the past two years, it is already the highest price in today's TV drama market.

Regarding the launch time, CCTV has communicated with Tencent and iQiyi and it is tentatively scheduled to be launched in May. There are still more than two months left, and the pre-promotion work for the TV series can be started one after another.

In addition to the news about "Joy of Life", the company has also communicated with China Film Group regarding the movie "My Hometown and Me".

As a co-producer, [Wei Ming Tian Xia] will account for 21% of the investment.

The main producers of "My Hometown and Me" are China Film Group and BJ Culture, which account for the majority of the market share, and then there is "Wei Ming Tian Xia" which was added later.

Other co-producers include Ning Hao's [Bad Monkey Culture], Yan Fei Damo's [Xihong City Film and Television], and Deng Chaoyu Baimei's [Orange Impression], which are all at the back in terms of investment proportion.

The screenwriting department at the company has already completed the script for "A UFO Falls from the Sky".

This unit story in "My Hometown and Me" is actually very simple. Gu Wei has already provided the outline, and it is relatively easy for the screenwriter department to enrich the content.

Gu Wei took a look at it and felt that there were no major problems. He marked some minor places that needed to be revised, and then sent it back to the company by email. They would naturally revise it and give it to him again.

[My Hometown and Me] is a mission film, with one unit lasting about 20 minutes. It is difficult to shoot it well, but it is also not easy to shoot it badly.

Being able to write essays based on given topics and still get all kinds of complaints from the audience like Brother Chen Kai does is also a kind of ability.

Gu Wei didn't intend to put much effort into this movie, he just wanted to copy the homework and get it done.
