Chapter 29 Buy It Now!eighty!
"Hiss! It's so spicy!" Gu Zhongyu was so hot that the bottom of the pot was so hot that he couldn't breathe. Even if he put the beef in clear water for a few times, the taste was still spicy enough.

I don't know how this big girl eats it. Is this kind of spiciness really healthy for chrysanthemums?

"No, I have to order something to drink." It was too spicy, and seeing that there was not even a bottle of orange juice on the table, Gu Zhongyu was about to call the waiter to come and order.

"Wait!"

Seeing that Gu Zhongyu was going to call the waiter, Yang Mi stopped him immediately, and took out a bottle of Master Kong green tea from his bag without haste.

"I don't know how to save some money for my old lady. I have half a bottle of green tea here, so you can make do with it!"

"Are you going to withhold it to death? Did all the money earned from filming so many movies go to raise ducks?" Gu Zhongyu could see that this big girl still remembered the grudge she gnawed on her last time, and deliberately wanted to see him tearing up when he was so hot.

"Be diligent and thrifty! You taught me. Every time you invited me to dinner, it was either a small red shed or a food stall. I invited you to a private hot pot restaurant and top-notch Japanese food. If you are so good to you, why do you need a bicycle?"

Gu Zhongyu always chooses high-end restaurants to eat with other girls, but every time he eats with her, he chooses the cheapest place. Yang Mi has long been annoyed by this kind of discrimination!
This is actually wronging Gu Zhongyu, he usually doesn't pay much attention to his meals, and most of the time he chooses roadside stalls to deal with, because he has treated Yang Mi as a brother for a long time, so before taking her out to eat, he always chooses some affordable places.

"My fault! Next time, please go to a romantic and upscale place for dinner."

"You are wise." Seeing Gu Zhongyu repented, Yang Mi stopped embarrassing him, so he ordered a pinch of cold beer for him, and replaced the hot pot with a mandarin duck bottom. As for going to a romantic place for dinner, she would be a fart. I just hope that the next time I invite her to dinner, it will not be in Sha County for snacks!
……

"I heard that your old man let you out of the cage?" Yang Mi picked up a piece of Maoxuewang and put it into her small mouth. This is a dish she must order every time she eats hot pot, and she also tried to give it to Gu Zhongyu.Helplessly, Gu Zhongyu has always kept a respectful distance from this kind of food, and he doesn't understand what's so delicious about it.

These sisters also like to drink the old BJ soybean juice, and also like to drink Amway, the sour and smelly taste, the taste is really weird!

"Yeah!" Gu Zhongyu buried his head in the fish balls...

"I heard that your company has an A-level investment movie coming up? Are you going to play the leading role?"

"Yeah!" Gu Zhongyu immersed himself in eating the shrimp slippery...

"They said that there is a play looking for me, is this the only one? The female lead, right?"

"Yeah!" Gu Zhongyu started to show off the deep-fried dough sticks in the bowl...

"Aren't you fucking finished, right? I've just asked you a question, so I know, you're not allowed to eat, let's talk about the movie first." Seeing that Gu Zhongyu was only focused on cooking, Yang Mi became angry, and immediately snatched Gu Zhongyu's bowl and stopped his eating.

Seeing that his job was robbed, Gu Zhongyu had no choice but to use his chopsticks to directly pick up the food in the pot and put it in his mouth. After being scalded, he started to talk to Yang Mi about the purpose of finding her this time.

"Huh! Huh! Labor and capital are scorched to death! Yes, there is an A-level investment, with a minimum cost of [-] million yuan, and a science fiction theme."

Yang Mi was excited when she heard this. The movie she starred in before had the best box office result, "Far Cry".Relying on her high popularity and sacrifice of selling meat, the box office of the three vulgar films was only less than [-] million, but it also broke the box office record of domestic horror films.

It is relatively easy to make money in domestic horror movies these days, because the audience has not been beaten enough and lacks movie-watching experience. As long as they see horror themes, they will run into the movie theater in a daze.

After watching it, I found out that these domestic horror films were either mentally ill or insane. None of them were really haunted, and basically all of them walked out of the cinema cursing.

The later "Capital No. 81", "Pen Fairy", and "Dish Fairy" all followed this approach, relying on trailers to lure audiences into movie theaters. They were all surprisingly bad, but the box office results were better than each other!
This is also the reason why bad domestic films were rampant in those years. Because of the booming film market and the immaturity of Chinese movie audiences, any eye-catching film can receive a good box office.

"Far Cry" won a box office of 2011 million in 9500. This box office is quite high, but it is not as much investment as Gu Zhongyu's new movie.

And being able to star in such a big production is something every actor can't refuse, and so is Yang Mi.

"Sci-fi films? Are they like Iron Man and Spider-Man?" Yang Mi asked curiously. Her knowledge of sci-fi films was limited to superheroes flying into the sky and escaping from the ground. To him, Liu Cixin's novels were like fantasy!
"Of course not. The movie is based on Liu Cixin's science fiction novel "Ball Lightning". In terms of connotation and plot, it is superior to those superheroes. I don't know how much higher it is!"

"Liu Cixin, I seem to have heard you mention it before. Are you really going to adapt his novels into movies?" Yang Mi remembered that Gu Zhongyu had told him about this writer before, saying that he had bought the rights to adapt all his novels, and would remake them into movies one by one in the future.

"That's right! This is just the first part. "Ball Lightning" is the first work in our series of film and television science fiction era. Currently, we plan to make two parts. Let you play the heroine Lin Yun. How about it? I treat you well, right?"

"Even if you have a conscience, how much do you plan to pay me for such a big-produced movie?" When it comes to money, Yang Mi, who is obsessed with money, became interested. He didn't care about the role, and first talked about the salary.

"Then I can't treat you badly! I will pay you this amount." As he spoke, Gu Zhongyu raised his right hand, with his thumb and index finger stretched out at right angles at the same time.

"800 million?" Seeing this, Yang Mi's eyeballs began to glisten. It was worthwhile for him to be bitten by this bastard before. If this good thing happens every time, it's okay to bite it a few more times!

"It's navel fart—how did you (think) it? One price! Eighty!" Gu Zhongyu looked at her with a look of disgust, thinking of something good!I guess someone doesn't even get such a high salary for making movies now!
"Are you f*cking kidding me?" Yang Mi was annoyed, how could this little money be sent to beggars?
Now it’s not yet the era when actors’ salaries skyrocket. Except for top celebrities like Li Lianjie and Cheng Long who can earn tens of millions of dollars, the rest is at most a few million dollars. This is still well-known Hong Kong stars such as Liang Chaowei and Liu Dihua. If they are actors from the mainland, it will be even less.

People like Sun Honglei and Huang Xiaoming are currently very popular, and the salary for making a movie is 500 to 100 million yuan. Female stars are even less, and many of them in the same class are generally half as low as male actors. Wang Luodan and Li Xiaolu can’t even get 80 million yuan. Like Yang Mi’s movie "Far Cry" released this year, she only got [-] yuan in salary.

Of course, this movie was filmed last year, and "Gong Suo Xin Yu" hadn't aired at that time, and Yang Mi, who was limited in popularity, got paid less than the hero Chen Xiaochun.If it was filmed this year, the situation would be quite different. Her film salary would start at least 300 million.

Now Gu Zhongyu's asking price of 80 is indeed a bit too low, but it doesn't matter, he is sure to convince this little money fan.

Mr. Gu's small class is starting!
