Chapter 269 Picking and Picking
Early the next morning, Nazha woke up from a deep sleep and found herself in a warm embrace. The familiar touch made her immediately know who the owner of the embrace was.
He twisted his slender and flexible body on the bed and turned over to face Gu Wei.
Looking at the man opposite who was sleeping soundly but still didn't forget to hug her, a happy smile appeared on Nazha's face.
She looked at Gu Wei's face with wide eyes. The tall nose, sexy thin lips, and a pair of sword eyebrows added a bit of sharpness to the whole face. Even if the most charming eyes were not opened, they could still make people intoxicated after looking at them for a long time. in.
After watching for a while, Nazha licked her lips, moved her head forward, and kissed Gu Wei's lips with her own lips. She felt better and better, and her eyes slowly closed.
When she opened her eyes again, she found Gu Wei's star-like eyes looking at her, with a playful smile on his face.
Nazha was a little embarrassed.
"Sorry, I woke you up~"
"It's okay, you continue."
Gu Wei said.
Nazha lowered her head shyly, huddled like a quail, and did not answer.
The corners of Gu Wei's mouth turned up higher and higher.
"If you don't continue, I'm going to start."
It was a pity that Naza slept with her last night. Now that they were both awake, Naza's cute actions throughout the morning made her look extremely delicious.
After a good night's sleep, Gu Wei was full of energy and had nowhere to vent.
A morning jog is inevitable.
A refreshed Gu Wei came out of Palm Springs International Apartment, got in the car and went straight to the company.
He was in a good mood this morning. After entering the company, Gu Wei greeted the employees who greeted him with a smile.
"Mr. Gu seems to be in a good mood today. Is there anything good going on for the company?"
After Gu Wei left, the two employees discussed quietly.
"The films our company has invested in are all selling well. If I were Mr. Gu, I would be in a good mood every day."
Entering the office, he asked the assistant outside the door to make him a latte with more sugar.
Sit on the boss's chair and start processing some documents left behind before leaving.
After a while, Yang Liwen knocked on the door and came in.
"Boss, these are some scripts that I have recently come to you for. I have already screened them."
Although the agent said so, what was handed over was still a thick pile.
This happens every once in a while, and Gu Wei is no stranger to it either.
Originally he was a popular star, and there were countless companies and crews looking for him to act. After the success of "Left Ear", his box office appeal has been highly praised by people in the industry, and film appointments are coming in like snowflakes.
Gu Wei couldn't take over even if he knew the clone technique.
I can only ask the agent to take a look at them one by one, and then call them one by one to reject them.
The reasons are all the same. The schedule is full. I'm sorry. I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate next time.
This way you won’t offend anyone, and who knows if there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future.
"Boss, this invitation is different. There are several heavyweight film appointments. I hope you will consider it carefully."
Seeing that Gu Wei was still as careless as before, Yang Liwen couldn't help opening her mouth to remind him.
Gu Wei perked up when he heard the manager's words. He knew that the other party would not be unintentional.
The first thing that came into his sight was the new movie "Grand Trail" directed by Guo Xiaosi. It will be launched in the second half of this year and is a live-action CG fantasy film produced by LeTV Pictures Co., Ltd.
It has been confirmed that the heroine is Fan Bingbing. If Gu Wei joins, she will be a top male and female domestic entertainer.
It's certainly unique in attracting young audiences to the venue.
The cover has a lot of bells and whistles that are different from other scripts, with two large Chinese characters "Grand Master" written in the center.
Gu Wei shook his head and threw it together with the other books he had read.
He was quite interested in Fan Bingbing, but Guo Xiaosi gave it up.
No amount of money can offset the loss of reputation.
The "Tiny Times" series has completely consumed the impression points of Guo Xiaosi among passer-by audiences. Even if he makes any good-looking and highly rated movies in the future, he will not get very good results.
Moreover, although he has not seen the movie "Grand Records", his impression seems to be that it continues the reputation of "Little Times".
In a short time, Gu Wei had read almost all the scripts.
It has to be said that whether a star is popular or not, and his status in the industry, can be seen from the projects to which he is invited.
When Gu Wei first entered the industry, he only had one work, Xiu Chun Knife, which was a mixed bag in his books.
There are low-budget online movies, dramas produced by third-rate companies, and various directors you have never heard of, and the protagonists and supporting characters are also different.
At that time, it was like looking for gold in the sand. Even if he had the ability to foresee things, there still had to be gold in the sand.
Really high-quality resources for big productions and big investments would not come to me at that time.
Now after several works have been released one after another, TV series and movies have become popular, and the works led by Gu Wei have brought huge benefits to investors, partners, and broadcast platforms.
Now the people who are looking for him are the truly top mainstream resources in the industry. After all, no one has trouble with money. Everyone hopes that Gu Wei's joining will make their projects more successful and bring greater profits.
Just like the role invitations he saw today, even an ordinary actor in the industry can tell which ones are the real "good ones" through the production company, investment cost and director's name.
Now Gu Wei is no longer digging for gold in the sand, but selecting the most precious piece among a pile of jewelry.
I flipped through a script called [Formula of True Love for Females] in my hand and threw it aside.
This is a low-budget love movie invested by [Huace Media]. The male and female protagonists invited Gu Wei and Zhao Liying respectively. It seemed that they planned to take advantage of the popularity of last year's [Shanshan Is Here] to have the two of them play together on screen.
The idea is good. At this stage, it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhao Liying is the most popular star in domestic entertainment.
"Flower Thousand Bones" is currently on the air, and her popularity is getting stronger day by day. At this time, even Gu Wei is not as popular on the Internet.
Unfortunately, the script is really not innovative and the director is not well-known. Although Zhao Liying can handle TV series, her performance in movies has always been poor.
If Gu Wei joins, I believe that his fame can also boost the movie's box office, but it will not help him at all and will simply consume his fame and the audience's favor.
"Boss, this script was submitted through [Juku Film and Television]. Do you want to think about it again?"
Yang Liwen saw Gu Wei's actions and knew that the movie had been passed by him, but there were some things she had to say.
After all, Juku has cooperated with [Wei Mingxia], and the relationship between the two parties has always been good.
[Juku Film and Television] is a subsidiary of [Huace Media], and the invitation was sent through this channel in the hope that Gu Wei would take the role.
"It's okay. You can just reject the offer from the crew. I'll just call Mr. Fu from [Juku Films] later."
The cool female boss Fu Binxing has always maintained a good personal relationship with Gu Wei. She was filming in Shanghai and invited Gu Wei out for a meal. She is a very temperamental professional woman.
Hearing what Gu Wei said, Yang Liwen said nothing more.
In the end, there were only three scripts left in front of Gu Wei. They were all films by big directors and big productions. If an ordinary star could participate in any of them, it would be worthy of bragging from his or her team.
Now three books have been published by Gu Wei at the same time, which shows his current popularity in the industry.
The first one is the love movie "The Ferryman" produced by Alibaba Pictures and produced by Wang Jiawei, directed and written by Zhang Jiajia.
Gu Wei was invited to star in the film's second male lead, the character "Guan Chun" played by Takeshi Kaneshiro in the original version.
The male protagonist is played by Tony Leung.
Wang Jiawei is very famous and his strength is undoubted. "In the Mood for Love" and "The Grandmaster" are both movies that can make him a god.
It's a pity that he is only a producer, and screenwriter-turned-screenwriter Zhang Jiajia's storytelling ability is far inferior to him.
Subsequently, the "I like" incident broke out, and the guards in such troubled waters did not want to go there.
Eliminate first.
The second script was a movie that Gu Wei really couldn't make up his mind about.
Produced by Zhou Xingchi and directed by Xu Ke, "Journey to the West: Conquering Demons" is a follow-up story to "Journey to the West: Conquering Demons".
This movie achieved a high box office of 1.65 billion in the original time and space, but it was a pity that it won the box office but lost the reputation.
The movie's rating was much lower than that of "Conquering the Demons", and it was not rated highly in subsequent audience feedback.
Gu Wei feels that the reason why the original version has a bad reputation is largely due to the crotch-stretching acting skills of the two main characters, Li Jiaheng and Lin Gengxin.
The Tang Monk and Monkey King played by them are really unpleasant. If they played the protagonist Tang Monk, the quality of the movie would definitely be improved compared to the original version.
Of course, another disadvantage of [Subjugation of Monsters] is that the plot is relatively weak. The main plot is besides fighting monsters. This is something that Gu Wei, as an actor, cannot change.
After much hesitation, I reluctantly threw aside the script of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and placed the last copy of "Operation Mekong" in front of me.
Yang Liwen, who had been watching from the side, finally couldn't help it anymore. She was about to speak when Gu Wei threw the [Ferryman] out just now, but she thought about it and held it back.
Now that she saw that Gu Wei had also passed [Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons], she couldn't understand it.
"Boss, these two invitations are from Wang Jiawei and Zhou Xingchi!
Don't you think about it anymore? "
These are not audition invitations. As long as Gu Wei nods, he can immediately confirm the role and sign the contract with the crew.
Yang Liwen really couldn't figure it out. "The Ferryman" was the second male lead, and the director Zhang Jiajia's reputation was average. He relied entirely on Wang Jiajia to support the show. It was understandable that Gu Wei refused.
But "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" is not only the sequel to the hit movie "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", it is produced by Zhou Xingchi, and director Xu Ke is also the top director in Hong Kong. The two of them combined their swords to invest up to 400 million in a large-scale production. Yang Liwen wants to There is no possibility of failure.
What's more, the invitation given is the protagonist. It can be said that every actor counts as one. No actor in the entertainment industry would refuse such an opportunity.
"I like this better than the first two movies."
Gu Wei picked up the script in his hand and shook it.
"Operation Mekong" is an action police film produced by "Bona Films" and directed by Lin Chaoxian. It is adapted from real events.
After its release, it performed very well both at the box office and word of mouth.
The script that Gu Wei received invited him to star in the original version of Peng Yuyan's character "Fang Xinwu".
But what is different from the original version is that in this version of the script, "Fang Xinwu" obviously has more roles, and he is the male protagonist of the movie.
Zhang Han and "Gao Gang" played by Zhang Han became the second male lead.
Gu Wei estimated that Bona had made certain adjustments to the script in order for him to agree to star.
This is not surprising. It is obvious which one is more attractive to the audience, starring Zhang Han or starring Gu Wei. At least Gu Wei's own fans will definitely support the work starring the idol Yi Yiyi.
Boehner did this entirely for box office considerations.
Originally, this kind of police and gangster-themed movie with some main themes had no precedent for being a big hit before. If Gu Wei was asked to come to boost the box office, of course he had to be given the status of the male protagonist.
The ultimate goal of making a movie is to make money, and everything must serve the box office.
"The three movies are all shot in the second half of this year, and the shooting cycle is not short. If there is no drama, there must be choices."
Gu Wei said calmly.
Seeing Gu Wei's firm attitude, Yang Liwen opened her mouth but said nothing more.
"I understand, boss. I will reply to these companies and crews in a moment."
After saying that, he packed up the scattered scripts on his desk and left.
Gu Wei looked at the "Operation Mekong" script in front of him and touched his chin.
“How much salary does [Bona Film and Television] offer?”
"30 million. After [Left Ear] is released, boss, your external quotation for film remuneration will be 30 million, and Bona will give it according to the market price."
"That's it, [Demon Demon Chapter] is not too busy to refuse. Let's communicate with [Bona Film and Television] first. If you want me to take it, my remuneration needs to be converted into an investment share.
If they agree, then reply to [Subjugation of Demons]. "
The investment cost of "Operation Mekong" is 150 million, and Gu Wei's salary can account for 20% after conversion.
Gu Wei is confident that if he takes part in the movie, the box office will exceed that of the original version. Then he will not only make money, but also have a high-rated and blockbuster movie on his resume. Wouldn't it be nice?
Moreover, participating in "Mekong River" can also have a friendly relationship with "Bona Film and Television" to a certain extent.
Bona's subsequent main-theme movies have basically achieved both word-of-mouth and box office success. With Gu Wei's current development trend, it is not impossible for him to enter the market and get a share of the pie.
Yang Liwen looked at Gu Wei and nodded.
"I understand, I'll do it now!"
