Huayu is free to do as you like

[Anle] Gu Wei didn't know what the decision was, but he didn't care. Whether he accepted the movie or not, it didn't have much impact on him.

Jiang Zhiqiang agreed to his request, and Gu Wei earned more money and added a hit movie to his resume.

Even if he disagrees, he has nothing to lose and the free time can be used to do other things.

With Gu Wei's current fame, he could make more money by filming a TV series for his company than by making a movie.

What's more, now that he has accepted [Wolf Warrior 2], he won't have to worry about the movie's box office record in the future.

Wu Jing's movie, which some people ridiculed as only being watched by little pinks, really let everyone know how huge the Chinese film market has become.

This is a film destined to leave its mark in film history.

In the afternoon, Gu Wei handled some tasks at hand and watched the finished film "The Richest Man in Xihong City" with directors Yan Fei and Peng Damo in the company's screening room.

The film was finally completed after nearly 4 months of post-production.

Gu Wei also wrote the original song "Calorie" sung by "Rocket Girls 101" for the second half of the movie in advance.

This song is not difficult to sing. Gu Wei wrote it before going to Thailand and kept it in the company.

Now it seems that it matches well into the movie, but Yang Chaoyue's broken voice is missing.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't affect the effect. The assistant is doing her best to help him take care of his daily life. Gu Wei has no plans to support her in his debut for the time being.

After the movie was played, the lights in the screening room came on.

Gu Wei shook hands with the two directors with a smile on his face.

"It's very good. In my opinion, this film is better than [Charlotte]. When it is released, it will be another masterpiece with a box office of over 1 billion!"

Yan Fei and Peng Damo looked at each other and were also very happy.

As a director, the happiest thing is when your work is recognized by others.

Gu Wei has never failed in the film industry, and his vision is recognized by many people. With his approval, the two directors were relieved of their worries.

Gu Wei is not polite. In his opinion, the new version of [The Richest Man in Xihong City] with a new heroine is better than the original version.

Although the main line of the story has not changed, more sufficient investment and shooting time make the details of the movie more worthy of scrutiny.

And the most important point is that in the original version, due to the relationship between investors, the role originally played by Mary was eventually snatched away by a Taiwanese girl introduced by the investors.

Although Shen Teng is a professional actor, he must be conscientious in his performance, but the knot in his heart makes him and the heroine in the same frame, the camera always seems a bit separated.

Even after the movie was released, he stopped pretending at all and directly made sarcastic comments in front of the media, without any communication with the heroine at all.

This version does not have this problem with Zhang Tianai. Perhaps in Shen Teng's view, this movie is used by Gu Wei, a big financial backer, to praise his little girlfriend, and Zhang Tianai is the indispensable real protagonist.

So when he was on the set, he paid special attention to Zhang Tianai. The two of them had a good relationship, and they naturally had a tacit understanding when filming the movie.

After bidding farewell to the two directors, Gu Wei asked the staff around him:

“Who did I find to sing the song [Calorie] that I wrote?”

"Mr. Gu, the post-production team contacted a girl idol group called [SNH48] in Shanghai, and they produced several singers.

At that time, the company where their team worked, called Siba Culture Media, also wanted to buy the copyright of this song, but the company refused because they did not have your consent. "

Gu Wei suddenly realized that this was the "Four Thousand Years" team. Maybe one of the people singing was Xiaoju.

He was completely indifferent to Xiaoju's classmate Gu Wei. What impressed him the most was that no matter what movie he was filming or what variety show he participated in, he always wore semi-permanent makeup.

Not to mention whether the bare-faced photos of Xiaoju exposed online are true. Her behavior of always wearing makeup is obviously due to her extreme lack of confidence in her bare-faced appearance.

In addition, the acting was not good, probably at the level of Big Baby. Therefore, although I filmed a lot of various film and television dramas in the later period, they were always tepid.

In the evening, Gu Wei left the company earlier than usual.

Today, Yang Zi invited him to dinner, and Zhang Yishan was there to accompany him. He didn't know what kind of medicine the two of them were selling.

You said it was an ordinary dinner party. Yang Zi obviously wanted to see Gu Wei for something, but when asked on the phone, she didn't say what she was doing.

It's a private restaurant in an alley in Beijing. The food here is very good and the price is not cheap. Gu Wei brought Yang Zi and the others here before, and today's dinner date is here.

After Gu Wei entered the door, he was led by the waiter to the innermost box.

Pushing the door open, there was another person in the room besides Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan.

He was sitting between the two of them. He was tall and slightly fat. He always had a smile on his face wearing gold-rimmed glasses and looked quite naive.

"Gu Wei, come here, let me introduce you."

Seeing Gu Wei come in, Yang Zi came up to him with a roar.

"No, Teacher Xia, bah, hello, Teacher Gao, I grew up watching your TV, and I've heard Yang Zi mention you before. Today is the first time we meet, and I'm very happy."

As he spoke, Gu Wei bent down slightly and stretched out his hand politely.

The visitor is none other than Gao Yalu, who played Xia Donghai in "Family with Children".

"Hello, hello, they always talk about you to me, especially Yang Zi, showing off to me that they have a good friend who is a super star!"

Gao Yalu turned to look at Yang Zi and said with a smile.

"No way, I just mentioned it occasionally~"

Yang Zi quit.

Zhang Yishan came over from the side.

"Who was showing off to the female classmates in the class when they were in school, 'Do you know that Gu Wei who is very popular recently? He is from Grade 11 in our school and has a very close relationship with me!'"

He spoke in a bullish and coaxing tone, as if he was imitating Yang Zi's behavior at that time, and felt a little needy.

"Have I ever said that you are slandering me? If you say it again, I will beat you up!"

Yang Zi was a little embarrassed and wanted to beat Zhang Yishan when he crossed Gaoya Phosphorus.

"Why not? Li County can testify!"

The two of them started to fight each other every time they went back and forth.

Gao Yalian looked on with a smile, and Gu Wei didn't react at all to this scene. It was a daily routine for the two of them to fight each other at their gatherings, and he had long been used to it.

After Gu Wei arrived, a table of dishes was served quickly. They ordered some drinks instead of drinking, and the four of them started chatting while eating.

Gu Wei picked up a piece of pineapple pork and put it in his mouth.

"Little Hou Zi, you said you want to introduce me to Teacher Gao if you have something to do with me?

There is nothing to hide, just say no. "

"Uh~ That's right, actually, this is just one aspect."

Yang Zi was hesitant.

"Ah, let me tell you."

Zhang Yishan took over what Yang Zi said.

"It's like this. When we chatted with Ya Phosphorus' father before, we learned that he is currently preparing to film a TV series.

It's just that there was a little problem with the investment in that film.

We just thought of you. Hasn't your company been producing investment film and television dramas? It just happened to introduce Ya Phosphorus Dad to you.

You discuss it and see if the project can work. If it works, then you can invest. If it doesn't, it doesn't matter. "

Zhang Yishan spoke quickly and clearly explained the cause and effect in a few words.

Gu Wei nodded after hearing this.

"This is also my fault. I originally complained about work issues when chatting with my two children, but I didn't expect that they insisted on helping me find someone capable of solving the problem.

I didn't want to trouble them, but they kept trying to persuade me, so I came here. "

Gao Yaphos said with a sigh.

"Teacher Gao, please tell me about the TV series first.

Nothing else is necessarily true. Yishan is right about one thing. My company has invested in many popular film and television dramas. If there is nothing wrong with the script, for the sake of Yang Zi and the others, I will definitely support you! "

Gu Wei said it very cheerfully. Judging from the relationship between him and Yang Zi, as long as the investment is not particularly large, it doesn't matter if he helps invest some money.

"Okay, today I specially brought the script.

Gu Wei, you don't have to force yourself. If you can't do it, just say it. You have a good relationship with Yishan and the others, and you can't let this affect your work judgment.

I've been rejected a lot, so you don't have to care about my feelings. "

As he spoke, Gao Yafo took out a white-covered script from his bag and handed it over.

Gu Wei took it and took a look. There were several big words written on the cover: "In the name of the people"!

His heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but open the cover and read it.

“Our drama is an anti-corruption drama produced by the Film and Television Center of the Supreme Procuratorate and the Golden Shield Film and Television Center.

The story is written by screenwriter Zhou Meisen, directed by director Li Lu, and Li Xuezheng and I serve as producers and producers. "

Gu Wei looked at it while Gao Yaphos introduced it.

"Li Xuezheng has just started to contact the crew with two funds totaling 30 million, which is considered the first funding for this drama.

Later, we talked with dozens of investors. At first, everyone signed the contract for the sake of all parties, but when it came time to pay, they all shied away from the contract, and in the end they even broke the contract.

Of course, we understand this. To be honest, Gu Wei, I can’t hide it from you. The scale of the drama "In the Name of the People" written by Zhou Meisen is too big, and everyone is worried that it will not pass the review in the end.

Not only the investors, but also some of the actors we contacted and accepted the roles after we sent the script. In the end, they all worriedly asked us if it would be broadcast after we finished the performance.

Based on your relationship with Yang Zi and the others, we are all our own people, and I can’t cheat you."

Gao Yalu talked a lot, and Yang Zi looked at Gu Wei worriedly. She was afraid that Gao Yalu would not be able to film the TV series because he had no money, and she was also afraid that Gu Wei would be in vain after paying for his own face.

Zhang Yishan didn't care at all. No matter what they did, he enjoyed eating.

He didn't think much about it at all. In his opinion, he was just building a bridge, and whether it succeeded or not would depend on Gu Wei.

Based on his understanding of Gu Wei over the years, Gu Wei will not suffer any loss no matter whether this matter succeeds or not.

"How much money is left?"

Gu Wei's sudden voice stunned Gao Yalu, who was still talking.

"What?"

"How much money is left in the investment for this drama [In the Name of the People]?"

Gu Wei closed the script, raised his head and smiled gently.

"Um~ We plan to invest 120 million. Now, in addition to the 30 million that Li Xuezheng contacted, the funds have been received. There are two investors who have not broken the contract and have promised to provide 20 million, but the money has not yet arrived.

There is still a shortfall of 70 million. "

Gao Yalian said quickly, and then looked at Gu Wei expectantly.

"That's it~"

Gu Wei touched his chin and thought for a while.

"Teacher Gao, don't use the two investors who haven't received the funds yet. Such small investors won't be of the same mind as the crew. Don't make any demands during filming that will affect the quality of the TV series.

I’ll cover the rest of the 90 million investment! "

"You said you wanted to invest 90 million?"

High phosphorus has confirmed one side.

"Yes, Teacher Gao, I am very optimistic about this TV series. The plot is very exciting. It will definitely be a classic that will be loved by the audience!"

Gu Wei spoke with certainty.

"But~ But aren't you afraid that you won't be able to pass the trial and that you will end up in vain?

This is not a small amount of money, it is almost 100 million. How many people will never make this much money in their lifetimes! "

After hearing that Gu Wei promised to invest, Gao Yaphos persuaded him.

"That's right, Gu Wei, don't be impulsive. Think about it carefully. Even if you want to invest, you don't have to invest so much. 90 million, even if you sell me, it won't be worth that much!"

Yang Zi also advised from the side.

She was afraid that Gu Wei invested money because of her own favor, and if she lost money, she wouldn't know how to face her best friend.

"Gu Wei, you should think about it carefully. Yang Zi is right, this is not a small amount."

Zhang Yishan stopped eating and said something worried.

"This is what you are."

Gu Wei was a little helpless.

"Didn't you invite me here today and want me to invest? Now I plan to pay for it, but why have you persuaded everyone?"

"Aren't we thinking about you?"

Yang Zi said.

"That's right~ Gu Wei, I understand how you feel. In fact, you don't have to invest so much. If you want to help your uncle invest ten or twenty million, that's fine. Director Li Lu and Producer Li Xuezheng are both soliciting investment. I believe you can do it no matter what. Make up enough for this 120 million."

Gao Yaphos comforted.

"Teacher Gao, I'm really not sentimental. I really like this TV and want to invest in it!"

Gu Wei had a wry smile on his face, he couldn't afford to spend the money on this matter.

"You don't have to worry about money. To put it bluntly, our company can earn several 90 million yuan from just one movie.

So it really doesn't matter to me.

On the contrary, this anti-corruption drama is hard to find.

Teacher Gao, let’s just make the decision. I’ll ask the company to prepare the procedures later.

You go back and tell Director Li Lu and Producer Li Xuezheng, and you can come to our company to sign the contract tomorrow.

As long as the contract is signed, 90 million will not be less! "

Gu Wei boldly decided directly.

"this"

Gao Yalian looked at Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan on his left and right.

He had never seen an investor like Gu Wei before, and it was simply more enjoyable than the coal boss he had met when he was young.

It would be outrageous for him to refuse now. Gao Yalu suppressed his excitement.

"Okay, since you said so, Mr. Gu, let's make this decision!"

After that, he asked the waiter outside the door for a box of beer, opened a bottle and poured it for Gu Wei himself.

"Teacher Gao, please don't call me Mr. Gu. Given your relationship with Yishan and the others, just call me by my name~"

Gu Wei stretched out his hand to hold the wine glass and watched Gao Yalu help him fill it up.

"Then what? Just you two drink. It's okay if Yang Zi doesn't drink. Why don't you give me some?"

Zhang Yishan touched his father Ya Phosphorus next to him and reminded him.

Gao Yaphos looked at the expectant expression on his face.

"Okay, you're so old, it's okay for a boy to drink a little."

After saying that, he also handed a bottle to Zhang Yishan.

"That's right, I'm no longer a child!"

The three of them were drinking, and Yang Zi was drinking. Everyone was having a great time eating and drinking.

After the matter was settled, everyone was in a good mood, especially Gao Yalian and Gu Wei, both of whom felt that they had taken advantage of it.

After three drinks and five dishes, today's dinner party has come to an end. Before leaving, Gu Wei didn't forget to remind Gao Yaphos, don't forget to come to his company tomorrow.

Watching Gu Wei get into the nanny car and drive away from the door, Gao Yalu sighed with Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan:

"You guys are such a brave and interesting friend!"

"Of course, it doesn't matter whose brother he is."

Zhang Yishan answered with some pride.

"Please, it's just for my sake, okay? I'm the one contacting everyone, you're just a companion."

"Hey~ you can't understand what you're saying, I was the one who explained it to Gu Wei."

The two of them became stubborn again without saying a word.

Gao Yaphos smiled and shook his head.
