CEE started with Nortel lecturers

Chapter 301 The richest man in the entertainment industry

In his previous life, Jia Nailiang in "The Legend of Ancient Swords" chose to "go on strike" because he asked for additional scenes, and when his request could not be met, he left the crew in anger, regardless of the progress of the subsequent filming.

On his social platform, he quickly cleared the news related to "Gu Jian Qi Tan" and changed his avatar back. He also said that he was extremely disappointed with the crew and could not bear it.

It is precisely because of these bad things that Jia Nailiang's resources in the industry were constantly downgraded, and in the end he almost had nothing to do, so he switched to live broadcasting to sell goods, and then he was repeatedly fired because of problems with the things he sold. rollover

"Jia Nailiang, when you were taking classes at Nortel, the teacher should have told you that you should respect the hard work of other staff members on the set. If you always have to add scenes like this, what should you do with Chen Xiao, the male protagonist? Screenwriter and producer It’s all up to you!”

"Teacher Gu, my request is reasonable, look at..." Jia Nailiang took out the script and tried to defend his behavior.

But Gu Zhongyu didn't bother to listen to his ramblings, and said to Yang Mi next to him: "Is this how you manage the crew if you don't deal with people who make trouble? As one of the investors, I am very doubtful about your decision-making ability, Boss Yang!"

Hearing Gu Zhongyu say that he was making trouble, Jia Nailiang became anxious and wanted to say something back, but Li Xiaolu from behind took his hand and signaled him to stop talking.

Wait, investors?

Gu Zhongyu is an investor in "Gu Jian Qi Tan"?

Jia Nailiang didn't see Gu Zhongyu's name in the cast list!

He didn't know that Gu Zhongyu was actually an investor in Jiaxing. This matter was relatively low-key. Even within Jiaxing, except for a few management members, no one knew that there was Gu Zhongyu as the boss behind the scenes.

Hearing Gu Zhongyu's words, Yang Mi felt emboldened, so he turned around and said to Jia Nailiang solemnly: "Teacher Jia Nailiang, if you feel that our script is unacceptable, please leave immediately, we will not Because your request alone affects the shooting progress of the entire crew."

"I am one of the investors, you can't ask me to leave!"

"All your investment will be returned to you. For the time and energy you have put into the crew these days, we will also settle it to you according to your remuneration!"

Hearing Yang Mi's ultimatum, Jia Nailiang wanted to say a few words, but when he saw Gu Zhongyu watching with cold eyes and the hint from his wife, he gritted his teeth and rushed out of the door without looking back.

When Li Xiaolu passed by Gu Zhongyu, he greeted her awkwardly and followed in her husband's footsteps.

Seeing the two couples leaving, Gu Zhongyu turned around and asked in a low voice, Dudu, had everything just been recorded?

Chen Duling nodded and said that both mobile phones were on and the video and sound were recorded.

"I really want to thank you, Mr. Gu, otherwise I don't know how today would have ended."

Chen Xiao is still very grateful to Gu Zhongyu. Not only did he point out the way and signed a contract with Liu Yufei's studio, but he also recommended him to play the male lead in "Gu Jian Qi Tan". Unfortunately, he is stupid and doesn't know what nice things to say. Express.

Seeing that the two of them still had something to talk about, everyone left first. Gu Zhongyu sharply noticed Reba, who was not yet famous in the crowd at this time.

Reba is now at the peak of her appearance, and she is very eye-catching even in a crew full of beauties. But this dress is too eye-catching, and it makes her face look a bit blind!

After everyone left, Da Mi Mi wanted to complain first, but when he saw the tired look on Gu Zhongyu's face, especially the dark circles at the corners of his eyes after taking off his sunglasses, he couldn't help but asked with some distress: "I've been tired recently. It’s broken!”

"No, it's mainly a matter of time difference."

Gu Zhongyu didn't open his eyes at all and replied smoothly.

There is another reason that Gu Zhongyu selectively concealed, because before leaving, Shalizi and Alexandra teamed up to squeeze him out for another day. The two ocean horses were too strong in this regard, and he really couldn't bear it. !

"Then I'll find a room for you to rest for a while. The assistant doesn't need to follow you, just leave it to me."

Yang Mi looked at Chen Duling, who was never leaving, and knew that this girl should be Gu Zhongyu's new assistant. The assistants this guy found were getting more and more beautiful, and his predecessor's Bai Lu was not so good-looking!

"Oh!"

Chen Duling knew about the relationship between Yang Mi and Gu Zhongyu, so she stayed here obediently. She didn't want to follow him, otherwise she would have to watch scenes inappropriate for children.

Da Mi Mi brought Gu Zhongyu to her residence. Because "Gu Jian Qi Tan" was expected to be filmed for a long time, she did not choose to stay in a hotel, but rented a house nearby.

Arriving at Yang Mi's home, Gu Zhongyu didn't even take off his clothes. He collapsed on the sofa and fell asleep...

If it weren't for the loud shouts from Da Mi Mi, I guess he would have slept until dark.

"You need to get rid of the jet lag! So, you can't sleep now!" He opened his eyes with difficulty and Da Mi Mi told him seriously.

"Please let me go and let me get some sleep!"

"At least take a shower, change clothes and go to the boat to sleep?!"

"No, no, it's just fine here. It doesn't smell like your stinky feet...don't hit me! I was wrong!"

As he spoke, Gu Zhongyu fell into deep sleep again.

……

When I woke up, it was completely dark.

Gu Zhongyu was a little confused as to why he slept on the bed? And he took off his clothes.

I guess it was the help of Da Mi Mi. He was quite strong and could still drag him. It was good to have a woman by his side to take care of him!

Looking at the time, Gu Zhongyu got up around seven o'clock in the evening, but did not see Yang Mi.

"Yang Da Mi! Fox Mi!"

She screamed all over the room for a long time, but there was no response. Instead, she woke up a bored little kitten in the living room. This was also Dundun's cub. Yang Mi said that if other women want it, she must have it too. He snatched the last milk cat from Gu Zhongyu.

Unexpectedly, she kept him with her during the filming. Dundun's children seemed to have inherited their father's fearless character. When they saw Gu Zhongyu, they even took the initiative to meow and meow, asking for some food.

"Where's your mother?"

Just after saying this, Gu Zhongyu laughed to himself. Even if it could answer, he couldn't understand it!

Forget it, I won’t ask you anymore!

I opened the refrigerator, took out some ingredients, cooked a few dishes, and was swallowing with difficulty. The door to the yard was pushed open from the outside. Da Mi Mi, wearing a baseball uniform and T-shirt, was carrying two lunch boxes and A large bag of daily necessities came in.

Maybe the thing was too heavy, dragging down the headlights of the car ahead and making them sway, which was a bit dazzling!

Gu Zhongyu hurriedly stood up and faced him, or to be precise, he faced the lunch box in Da Mi Mi's hand.

"Have you made anything by yourself?" Yang Mi curiously picked up Gu Zhongyu's chopsticks and took a bite of the food: "Your cooking skills have deteriorated, and it's not as delicious as what you cooked before!"

Gu Zhongyu was busy opening the lunch box and replied directly: "I don't rely on cooking skills to eat. Give me the chopsticks. There aren't even many Chinese restaurants in Toronto. Canada, like the United States, doesn't have anything delicious. !”

Da Mi Mi rolled her eyes at him, and then Shi Shiran ran to the kitchen and took out a set of tableware. The two of them didn't speak, and just ate and stuffed themselves together. The whole room was filled with the aroma of food, and the little milk cat meowed. the sound of.

"Magazines? Do you still like to read these things now?"

When he was almost done eating, Gu Zhongyu slowed down his food intake and picked up a few magazines that Da Mi Mi brought back to see what they were about. These days, he has been reading less magazines.

Newspapers, magazines, these traditional paper media have all begun to decline with the rise of smartphones in the past two years. Basically, dozens of magazine and newspaper offices close down every year, and sales have continued to decline. Newsstands, which were once common small shops in the streets, , it’s almost closed.

"When I was buying braised vegetables, I happened to see a stall next to me. It was news about you, so I bought some."

"About me?"

Gu Zhongyu hurriedly took a closer look. This was a magazine called "Bazaar Entertainment". Just by the name, he knew it was the masterpiece of Su Mang, the eldest sister. This woman has now published magazines such as "Fashion and Health" and "Bazaar Men". Special issues in different fields, and he wants to become the "devil" in the domestic entertainment industry!

"Taking stock of the most profitable man in the entertainment industry: Gu Zhongyu."

Then there is a long description, from Zongheng Company to his investment, the box office revenue of each movie, almost a clear inventory of Gu Zhongyu's net worth, except for some of his overseas profits.

Finally, it was concluded that Gu Zhongyu's total net worth is approximately 20 billion.

"Tsk, tsk, I haven't even done this calculation myself. I have to thank Su Mang for helping me do this inventory!"

Although Zongheng Entertainment has not been listed yet, according to industry estimates (in the third quarter of 2013, the market value of Huayi Brothers exceeded 400 billion yuan), the market value after listing should not be less than 200 billion yuan. Although the market value is not equal to net worth, Those taking stock believe that even Zongheng, which is currently unlisted, should be worth around billion.

There are also Gu Zhongyu's properties across the country. I don't know who checked it out, but this person actually listed them all.

There are seven houses in Yanjing, four of which are located near Qingbei University, four in Shanghai, four in Hangzhou, two in Chengdu, and one in Hengdian... Even the house in Xiongan bought by Gu Zhongyu was found.

The editor also teased Gu Zhongyu’s idea of ​​​​buying and investing in houses here. There is definitely no choice in buying houses in places like Yanjing Magic City, but in a remote place like Xiongan, Gu Zhongyu actually bought five houses, nine out of ten. Someone was deceived.

There are also some shares of other companies that Gu Zhongyu owns, such as Alibaba, Penguin, Sina, etc. Although the shares are very small, some are only a few tenths of a percent, but combined with the value of these companies, they are still quite large. of a fortune.

Adding all the bits and pieces together, he is worth at least nearly 200 billion.

"Is what is said here true or false? Are you so rich now?"

Da Mi Mi snatched the magazine from Shen Gu Zhongyu's hand and read it himself. He thought that apart from his good background, this boy was just an ordinary actor. He didn't expect that his wealth has expanded to this extent now.

"Not bad, that's all there is in the country."

In fact, this is far more than that. This technology company was not noticed in the confrontation between light and dark. Basically no one in the industry knew that Gu Zhongyu was working on a short video APP, so this company was not included.

There is also Banana Entertainment, a joint venture established with Wang Sicong, which is already developing a variety of variety shows such as "Running Brothers". The first episode of "Qi Pa Shuo" was successfully broadcast, and the response was quite good.

It's just that Gu Zhongyu was hiding behind the scenes, and Su Mang obviously didn't notice it either.

Of course, it's possible that she found out, but Su Mang didn't write it all down. After all, Gu Zhongyu's intention was obviously to hide these assets. If she revealed them all, wouldn't it be tantamount to offending him?

"Do you still have it abroad?"

"It's not much. I'm cooperating with Lionsgate Pictures. In order to reassure everyone, I bought some of their shares, probably only a dozen percent."

In fact, Gu Zhongyu also bought shares in Tesla, Twitter and Apple in his early years, but he didn't hold much. After all, no matter how hard a Chinese person works, he can't really become a major shareholder of these companies. He just prepares for the day when funds are available. When the flow is tight or the market value reaches a high point, all of them are sold for cash.

"You are so rich, why don't you just follow me and eat roast chicken! How on earth do you make money so well?"

Yang Mi looked at it for a while, put down the magazine in his hand, looked at Gu Zhongyu and asked.

She was so jealous of being a money addict. If she had known better, she would have invested with Gu Zhongyu. I heard that Liu Shishi was now making a lot of money because of investing with Gu Zhongyu, and even his interest in acting became less and less.

"Haha, this thing relies on your brain!"

Gu Zhongyu smiled and pointed at his brain, explaining Yang Mi's doubts.

Yang Mi curled her lips, not taking it seriously, and said: "There is another book here. It is praising you again, saying that you are a lucky star in the entertainment industry. No matter which director or actor you work with, you can bring them to the peak of their career!"

Indeed, Guo Fan is a new director, and he collaborated with Gu Zhongyu on "Ball Lightning," which not only grossed 1 billion in box office, but also won the Jury Prize at Cannes; Chen Sicheng, a TV drama director, went to the United States to film "The Invisible Guest" with Gu Zhongyu. Although it has not been released yet, it has already won an award in Toronto. The last Chinese-language film to win a Toronto award before this was "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"

After Yang Mi starred as the heroine in "Ball Lightning", she also starred in the controversial "Tiny Times" which earned hundreds of millions at the box office; Liu Yufei even lost her reputation as a box office poison and broke the domestic romantic comedy with "Like You" box office record, and now he has his own company.

"Partners in China" is also highly praised. It has been confirmed to be shortlisted for the three major domestic film festivals and the Golden Horse Award. It is also a big hit. Film adaptations of celebrity biographies are very popular in various countries. Gu Zhongyu won the best actor this time The possibility is also very high.

The entertainment industry is very superstitious. Celebrities love to hang out with red-topped and white-haired people. Nowadays, Gu Zhongyu is regarded as super popular by people in the industry. Everyone wants to cooperate with him, and even some veteran directors can't sit still. .

If it weren't for the fact that Gu Zhongyu has a strong desire for control, the director can only use him as a tool. Even a great director like Lao Mouzi would like to find an opportunity to work with him. After all, film awards such as Cannes and Toronto It has always been their dream.

Of course, ordinary actors wouldn't think so much. During this time, many people on Gu Zhongyu's WeChat were "concerned" about him and wanted to know what he was doing. Some actresses even sent some ambiguous words teasingly to him. he.

Use this to test cadres?

No sincerity at all!

Unless someone posts photos directly, Gu Zhongyu chooses to ignore them...
