Chapter 233 Big Power and Small Times

In the beautiful scenery of green mountains and green waters, Gu Zhongyu continued his road trip after leaving some things with his assistant.

But at this moment, he discovered that someone finally sent a message to the Secret Garden QQ group that had been silent for a long time!

A group friend with the online name "Since it's no chance, why meet again" sent a message asking: Does anyone know Gu Zhanan's schedule?I'm going to chop him to death!
good!With one glance, I identified it as the fairy sister’s trumpet!

Gu Zhongyu quickly added a note to this QQ, and finally figured out the identity of a group member.

However, almost no one from this group spoke at all, and no one paid any attention to Liu Yufei's message after it was sent out.

In order to avoid death and gain respect for Qianqian, Gu Zhongyu felt that it was time for him, the undercover agent, to take action.

Depend on your liver (Gu Zhongyu’s nickname): I support it. If my sister goes to chop down the scumbag Gu, take me with her! "

Since we have no chance, why meet again: Who are you?
Liu Yufei looked at the newly added account and began to guess which actress the owner of this account was.

Gu Zhongyu tapped the screen quickly with his fingers and replied: We are both from the far end of the world, so why should we know each other before we meet? We are in the same circle anyway, why do you have to know who I am? "

Not long after the message was sent, someone spoke again, but it was to reply to Sissi.
Group member time: Gu Zhongyu is not in Yanjing, he seems to be going out to play. "

Group members Red Carp, Green Carp and Donkey: I know, she went to visit Liu Yufei. The sister above can go to Hengdian to chop him to death. Remember to take pictures while doing it for us to see! "

Sissi replied to her: I know she went to Hengdian to visit Liu Yufei, but he left early in the morning and is now missing.

"Hey, upstairs, how did you know that Gu Zhongyu left early in the morning, and you are Liu Yufei, right?" Gu Zhongyu saw the flaw in her words and immediately tried to reveal her identity.

As soon as the true identities of the group members came up, other people also became interested, and immediately a group of group members who had been diving for thousands of years started to speak.

Rampant Little Chicken Leg: Yes, yes, how do you know?
Liu Yufei, whose identity was revealed, was silent for a while, and then replied: There is not only one actress in the crew, Liu Yufei, why do you think I must be her?
Cat sleeping with fish: Yes!Liu Yufei's new drama seems to have a bunch of actresses, not necessarily her.

Qingqing Apple Xiang: That doesn’t clear the suspicion. What about the group leader?I haven't seen him speak before. She has great powers, so she might know Gu Zhongyu's whereabouts.

Love is in arrears: Gu Zhongyu has no plans to film during this period. He has been traveling around. If any sisters see him, please share the information.

A female man doesn’t have a fever: He’s still traveling around, I guess he’s looking for a woman, right?Check out some of the famous female stars in China who are currently filming. Maybe they are visiting the studio again!

Poor Ashin: Isn’t this looking for a needle in a haystack?Let's see who Gu Zhongyu went to. He said to himself, "Don't let everyone guess. As long as the number of members in our group does not increase, we don't care about anything else."

Colorful Flower D Ai Lian: Go to hell!Did you really put aside the dispute and jointly develop it?Have you forgotten how shameless this bastard is?
Dog-walking fairy: That’s right, what’s so good about this little bastard?Is it worth it for you to abandon your female dignity and fight like this?
……

Gu Zhongyu participated in their group chat excitedly, watching a group of actresses hiding themselves, probing each other, intrigues, and yin and yang in the group. It was more interesting than TN's sex!
The topic in the group started with a discussion about Gu Zhongyu's whereabouts, but soon turned into a denouncement meeting against him. The sisters began to share their bitterness with each other and denounce the scumbag!
Fun!
Even Gu Zhongyu couldn't help but cursed a few words like "scumbag" and "teddy".

After all, they are all comrades who have carried guns together. Although there is still a competitive relationship between them, they are all women after all. It is easy to chat with each other. After scolding Gu Zhongyu for a while, they began to discuss skin care, endorsements, and acting. Things turned into a bestie exchange meeting again.

Not bad, not bad. Seeing that he had invigorated the atmosphere in the group, Gu Zhongyu was also pleased with Yourong.

screenshot!screenshot!
Finally, I gained something. I found Sissi's trumpet. I will guess the others one by one in the future. Finally, I will find an opportunity to gather them together and show them the screenshots of the chat in the group!

"Boss, what are you looking at that makes you so happy?"

In Bai Lu's eyes, the boss had been laughing at the phone for an hour. She really couldn't imagine what kind of content could make Gu Zhongyu so happy.

"Children, just drive your car with peace of mind and don't ask so many questions."

"Oh! I just want to remind you that we are going to the Magic City."

It's only a three-hour drive from Hengdian to Magic City. If Gu Zhongyu hadn't pulled Bai Lu along the way to add some white dye to the green mountains and green waters, they would have arrived long ago.

As one of the most international cities in China, Shanghai has become one of the main scenes for urban movie shooting.During the filming process, the crew of "Tiny Times" conducted filming in multiple locations in the Magic City, such as the Bund, Nanjing Road, Jing'an Temple, etc., unlike Hengdian where there are several fixed locations.

Gu Zhongyu didn't know where their studio was, so he had no choice but to call Yang Mi.

……

At this time, Yang Mi had just finished filming a scene and was having dinner with the other leading actors.

She is very happy today.

Although her last movie "The Wu-Tang Code" was a hit at the box office and word-of-mouth, now the "Tiny Times" series has become the most promising project for her. In addition to being very famous because of the original novel, the most important thing is That’s it—this is a movie that Gu Delai has designated to make a lot of money!
This stinky man has always had a very accurate vision, and she feels that she can recreate the myth of being the box office queen at the beginning of the year.

Nowadays, the sequel to "Ball Lightning" is far away, and Jiaxing's main direction is TV series. "Tiny Times" may be her signature movie in the next two to three years.

"Sister Mi, your performance today can be said to be really good. Look, after the movie is aired, the one who will get the most buzz and reputation will be you, Sister Mi." Guo Xiaosi's flattery is as good as asking for money. It was photographed.

"Director Guo, you are not bad either. You are already familiar with it when you first become a director. You will definitely be a national treasure director like Lao Mouzi in the future. Come on, let me toast you."

Yang Mi stood up and was about to toast Guo Xiaosi, but everyone almost fell on the table, but Guo Xiaosi opposite her still couldn't touch her glass.

awkward!

Director Guo Da's height problem was clearly exposed at this moment. Several actors tried their best not to laugh. Yang Mi walked over from his seat with an apologetic look on his face. When he came to Guo Xiaosi, he leaned down and touched him. One cup!
He just wanted to have a drink with Yang Mi, but he couldn't jump as tall as her.

Guo Xiaosi felt that it was time to buy new height-increasing shoes.

At this time, Chen Xuedong saw Guo Xiaosi's embarrassment, so he squatted on the ground and picked up the cup: "Come on, Director Guo, I'll drink with you."

"You are the best to me, Dongdong." While drinking the wine in the glass, Guo Xiaosi reached out his hand and touched Chen Xuedong's head lovingly.

Yang Mi suddenly felt that the rice in his mouth no longer tasted good.Of course, it was disgusting.

At this time, Yang Mi's assistant rushed back in a hurry, picked up a bag and handed it to her, and whispered: "Sister Mi, I bought what you wanted. I have been looking for it for a long time!"

"Okay, I know you worked hard, remember to keep it a secret!"

Xie Yilin looked at the mysterious look of the two of them and shouted: "Mi Mi, what good things did you buy and you didn't let me know? Is it a meeting gift for everyone?"

Xie Yilin, who has a carefree personality and comes from Wanwan, has never known what it means to be shy. He has established a good relationship with Yang Mi these days, so now he dares to make fun of her.

"No! It's just some personal things, everyone's gifts. I'll prepare them later."

"Personal stuff? Then I want to see it even more."

Ke Zhengxi on the side became excited at this time. He stretched out his hand to grab Yang Mi's bag and open it to take a look.

Yang Mi was so frightened that she covered the bag tightly. It would be okay if the things inside were shown to you people!

"Don't touch powerful things."

Guo Biting took the initiative to hold Yang Mi in his arms for protection. Recently, she and Yang Mi were as good as conjoined twins, and they couldn't wait to go to the toilet together hand in hand.

At this moment, Yang Mi's cell phone on the table rang!

She picked up the phone and looked at it, and her eyes lit up.

"Hey! Gu De Lai, why haven't you arrived yet? I've eaten all this."

Guo Xiaosi was still instructing Chen Xuedong to take Yang Mi's bag to look at something. He heard that the person talking to Yang Mi at this time was Gu Zhongyu, and he quickly stopped what he was doing.

"I don't know where it is? I really admire you. I'll send you an address. We're almost done with the food. You can come over and clear the table."

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

"Is Gu Zhongyu coming?"

"Yeah! He said a few days ago that he would come to visit the Tantan class. He has just arrived in the urban area of ​​​​Magic City, and he should be there in a while."

"Waiter, come here, I'll add some more dishes." How could Guo Xiaosi miss this opportunity to make connections? He immediately asked the restaurant to serve a few more signature dishes, and at the same time asked someone to book a hotel room for Gu Zhongyu.

Not long after, Gu Zhongyu finally arrived with Xiao Bailu.

Before Yang Mi could say anything, Guo Xiaosi rushed out in a swish, so fast!He arrived in front of Gu Zhongyu, then grabbed Gu Zhongyu's hand and shook it desperately!
"Welcome Mr. Gu to our crew to direct. Hearing about it is better than seeing him. Mr. Gu is even more handsome in person than in the movie!"

"Um...Hello, Director Guo, I've heard of you for a long time."

Gu Zhongyu looked at the hobbit in front of him and had the urge to kick him away.

Don't hold my hand so tightly, don't get so close to me, you bastard!
He had heard many rumors about Guo Xiaosi from the previous generation, and seeing how diligent and enthusiastic he was now, he doubted that this guy had any other ideas.

Gu Zhongyu is overthinking this. No matter how bold Guo Xiaosi is, he will think of a small horse pulling a big cart.I don’t dare to take ideas from a company boss like Gu Zhongyu!
Quickly breaking away from Guo Xiaosi's hand, Gu Zhongyu walked directly to the table, took a chair and sat between Yang Mi and Guo Biting.

"Call me in the morning! Shouldn't I ask my assistant to pick you up?"

"On the way there, there was a slight delay. I thought there would be a traffic jam, but I didn't expect it to drive here so smoothly. I forgot to remind you."

Seeing that Gu Zhongyu left him alone and went to chat with Yang Mi, Guo Xiaosi was not discouraged and asked Ke Zhengxi to move a seat for him. He said with a smile: "Teacher Gu is here just in time. You can also give us guidance on the shooting in the afternoon." Work."

"Director Guo is too polite. I just came to visit you."

Don't compare, I'm not being modest, you'd better ask someone wiser!
Gu Zhongyu never felt that he had anything to teach Director Guo. After all, his directing skills had always been very stable and he would never make a bad movie with a Douban score higher than 5.

In 2013, when the first movie of "Tiny Times" was released, it really shocked many people. No one thought that they could make a lot of money by making an extended version of PPT disguised as a movie release.

Many people say that the plot design of this movie is messy, and Gu Zhongyu just wants to laugh. The original work is so virtuous, but you still expect to have any plot when it is made into a movie?
As for other chaotic rhythms, incorrect outlook, and exaggerated acting skills, Gu Zhongyu doesn't think it's a problem. You've come to the cinema to watch Guo Xiaosi's movies, do you still care about this?

But from the perspective of this film and the domestic film market, Gu Zhongyu feels that the film is not without merit. At least "Tiny Times" represents the absurdity of this era and represents the barbaric growth of the film market like a road roller.

In terms of film positioning, Hollywood can have the big movie "Sex and City" and the American TV series "Gossip Girl". Why can't China have a movie like "Tiny Times"?

(If you insist on watching the ending credits, you will witness the largest and densest cluster of fashion logos in the closing credits in the history of domestic films. It will make people almost suffer from dense matter phobia)
Looking at "Tiny Times" from the perspective of a commercial product, at least he was successful and made money no matter what. Compared to Han Han, who was also a writer-turned-director, Guo Xiaosi was definitely an instant hit.

Because Guo Xiaosi and Han Han correspond to two different business models in content creation.

Guo Xiaosi, his target audience is always adolescent girls aged 14 to 18.

As for Han Han, his target audience is always the post-82s generation who were born between 88 and 80 and have an average education level.

And Guo Xiaosi has been writing for adolescent girls for ten years, and has completely controlled the desires of girls. What do teenage girls want?
It's nothing more than clothes and love, I'll give them all to you without any effort.Why you were selected for the interview, why the prince chose you, why the boss appreciated you, it doesn't matter, only the result is the only one.

Han Han, on the other hand, struggled for a long time with how to embody the text of his novel and how to explore the sensitive points of the movie audience. He was still groping in this way until Gu Zhongyu traveled through time.

Of course, the gap between the two also increased in the later period. Han Han's movie box office performance still surpassed Guo Xiaosi's, but in fact the two of them are still evenly matched. One is a money-worshiping and flamboyant, and the other is a late literary youth. They are both existences that have to be avoided in the cinema. .
