Gu Wei returned to the crew to continue filming, and the discussion about "Operation Mekong" on the Internet became more and more intense.

Especially after the press conference, [Bona Films] obviously began to put more effort into publicity, using the gimmick of Gu Wei's first police film to hype various topics on the Internet.

Yu Dong also has a very clear mind. He knows that if he only emphasizes the adaptation of real events, how sincere the filming is, and paying tribute to the anti-drug police, it will not attract too much attention. After all, many young people online are naturally indifferent to some things. interest.

But as long as Gu Wei is brought out and told about how hard he worked during filming, how many injuries he suffered, how hormonal he was in "Operation Mekong", etc., these news announcements will always attract a large number of netizens to discuss.

Therefore, Bona very cleverly focused the promotion of "Operation Mekong" on the Internet on Gu Wei, trying to make this slightly "righteous" film popular through his personal traffic.

Gu Wei himself was not surprised by this situation. He was prepared when he took on this drama.

Now is not 17 years later, there are not many so-called patriotic-themed movies and positive-energy movies on the market.

If you look at the domestic film and television box office rankings, you will know that the top few comedy films are either big-budget fantasy films or adaptations of some big IPs, such as "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and "Tomb Raiders Notes".

Among the truly positive patriotic movies, apart from the star-studded "Jianguo", "Building the Party" and "Building the Army" trilogy, the only ones that have done well at the box office are "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" and Wu Jing's "War", both of which were previously produced by Bona Films Wolf 1].

But none of these movies has reached a box office of one billion.

In the domestic film and television industry, patriotic movies will really become popular when [Wolf Warrior 2] achieves sky-breaking box office results next year, and then [Operation Red Sea] will also be a hit. Only then will everyone realize that patriotic-themed movies are so popular.

As a result, the film and television industry began to swarm in filming positive films with various patriotic themes.

In fact, if we say that this is a change in the Chinese film market, it is better to say that China’s national strength has become stronger and the people’s self-confidence has become stronger. As people become richer and feel proud of the country’s strength, patriotic themes will naturally become more popular.

Netizens are generally quite concerned about Gu Wei's first police film.

Some of his fans are extremely looking forward to this modern-themed police action movie. After all, this is Gu Wei's first attempt at a modern gunfight action scene, and everyone wants to see what the effect will be.

[Gu Wei’s first time filming a shootout scene between cops and gangsters. The character on the poster looks a bit handsome, which is very different from his previous image. I wonder if the movie will bring surprises to the audience! 】

[Support my brother’s new movie, he is the best, come on Gu Wei! ! ! 】

[It feels like Gu Wei may have made a bad move this time, and his box office myth may be shattered with this movie. 】

[The person above made it clear that the Riddler will not die a good death! 】

[It is well known that police and gangster movies do not get very high box office. Cheng Long's "Police Story" IP in the first two years was only more than 500 million, and other police and gangster movies in Hong Kong did not even get 500 million.

Even if the protagonist is Gu Wei, he probably won't get too high results. After all, director Lam Chiu-yin is a typical Hong Kong director, so he probably won't be able to produce anything new! 】

[Based on the investment revealed by Bona, "Operation Mekong" can earn 500 million yuan at the box office.]

[This is a movie about the male protagonist Gu Wei. He has been framed now. [Monster Hunt] and [Detective Chinatown 2] have a box office of billions. If this "Operation Mekong" does not get more than 1 billion, even if the investors To make money, the media will also say that Gu Wei's box office myth is no longer there, 500 million is even a box office hit! 】

[I still believe that Gu Wei will surprise us. After all, he has never disappointed people in these years. I will go to the cinema to support him! ! 】

[I hope that when the box office fails, the media will have some moral integrity~]

【.】

The crew of [You Are My Glory] finished filming a scene, and Gu Wei and Reba sat aside to rest.

"Gu Wei, I see that the public opinion on the Internet is not very good these days. Many people are not optimistic about your movie~"

Reba looked at her phone with a worried expression.

Gu Wei picked up the mineral water and took a sip, smiling nonchalantly.

"Don't pay too much attention to it. Many of my original film and television dramas were not favored at the beginning, but later they were slapped in the face by netizens."

He doesn't care at all what is said on the Internet. The film "Operation Mekong" itself is very good. Coupled with his traffic blessing, there is no problem that the box office will exceed the original version.

Although it will definitely not reach the level of "Monster Hunt" and "Tang Detective 2", it can definitely achieve unprecedented results in the field of police and criminal films.

Just like Gu Wei's previous low-budget youth romance film "Left Ear", the final box office of more than 800 million was considered low among the movies Gu Wei starred in, but everyone knows that the value of the 800 million box office is unparalleled. Than.

Seeing Gu Wei's confident look, Reba didn't know what to say.

The crew filmed for a few more days, and Meng Ziyi joined the crew.

She replaced the original role of Jin Chen, playing "Yu Tu"'s ex-girlfriend "Xia Qing".

There are only a few scenes in total, and all the scenes can be shot in two days. It can be regarded as a friendly guest appearance.

It’s also very interesting to talk about. When Gu Wei was filming "A Little Smile is Alluring", Meng Ziyi played the female supporting school belle in it, who was considered Naza’s love rival. Now in "You Are My Glory", she has become Reba. love rival.

"Sister Reba, long time no see~"

In the crew, Meng Ziyi greeted Reba warmly.

She and Reba were acquaintances. They had known each other since the filming of "A Little Smile Is Alluring", and they had a good time at that time. When celebrating New Year's Day at Gu Weihu's house in Shanghai, they even shared a room.

"Ziyi, I haven't seen you for such a long time, I feel so beautiful again~"

"Really, haha~ Sister Reba, you are so beautiful."

After the two little sisters met, they started chatting.

"Okay, Ziyi, let's go put on makeup and change clothes. You're here to make a cameo for just a few scenes. Take the time to finish filming.

You can catch up on old times when we go out to dinner tonight."

Gu Wei, who was standing aside, said.

Meng Ziyi glanced at Gu Wei, stuck out her tongue cutely, and said to Reba:

"Sister, I'm going to put on makeup. We'll talk after the filming is over."

Reba smiled and waved her hand.

After filming during the day, Gu Wei took Reba and Meng Ziyi to a private restaurant for dinner in the evening, as a way to catch up with Meng Ziyi.

Wang Yanlin and the three of them didn't know Meng Ziyi, and she would leave the group immediately after filming tomorrow, so they were not called.

In the private room, a table of delicious dishes was served. The two beauties did not drink, and Gu Wei also drank juice with them.

"By the way, Ziyi, you will graduate next year, right?"

Gu Wei took a bite of food and asked casually.

"Well, I am a senior this year and will graduate in less than a year~"

"Has the company taken on any projects for you recently?"

For the actors and actresses under his name, Gu Wei never pays attention to other film and television dramas they accept unless it is a drama produced by the company.

He has a lot of things to do of his own, and the company is currently working on many projects, so he really doesn't have the energy to care about the work of his artists.

Of course, when the company has good projects, he will also think about these people. After all, they are all making money for him.

“There are two modern idol dramas, and I was the second female lead in both.

Sister Yang said that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will also be remade, and the company will help me develop the role of "Mu Nianci". "

Gu Wei touched his chin.

"Your development path is quite smooth. You started as the third and fourth female lead, and now you are steadily playing the second female lead."

Meng Ziyi looked at Gu Wei with a smile on his face, his eyes were crooked, and he said in a coquettish tone: "But senior brother, I want to play the heroine~"

"Don't worry, at your current pace, you will be able to play the leading role when you graduate next year~

When the time comes, let the company run it for you and see if there is a suitable crew and role. If there are no good ones out there, it is not impossible for the company to create a TV series to praise you. "

Gu Wei picked up the cup and took a sip of juice and said.

"Hehe, that's great. Senior brother, I know you are the best!"

Meng Ziyi was extremely happy to get Gu Wei's promise. If Reba wasn't still around, she would have wanted to hold Gu Wei and kiss her twice.

Ever since he met Gu Wei, a big star senior brother, in school and signed with his company, Meng Ziyi felt that his path to stardom was smooth.

Although I have not been able to play the leading role in the past two years, I have appeared in many famous dramas, which not only improved my acting skills but also gained some popularity.

Now the senior brother she admires the most has promised to let her play the leading role. It is obvious that she, Meng Ziyi, is not far from becoming famous!

Gu Wei looked at the excited Meng Ziyi and shook his head.

He didn't flatter the other party. The female artists in the company, Zhang Tianai and Nazha, were all on the front line. Only Meng Ziyi had not been famous in recent years, and Yang Liwen mentioned it to him several times.

Gu Wei also planned to find an opportunity to praise her. After all, he signed a young girl and earned her commission. She was still his school girl, so he should take some responsibility. In the end, if she became popular, it would make him more money. .

Reba looked at Meng Ziyi with a smile on her face. In the past, she must have been particularly envious of him, but now she is filming a movie with Gu Wei, and she has no doubt that she will become popular. When she heard that Gu Wei promised Meng Ziyi If you care, you will only be happy for the other person.

"Brother, I want to play the female lead, can you play the male lead?"

Meng Ziyi, who was in excitement, suddenly thought of something and asked.

Reba also looked at Gu Wei with concern. It didn't matter if she was the heroine of an ordinary TV series, but if she played the male and female lead with Gu Wei, then this opportunity would be too precious.

“I’ll wait until next year, I’m not sure if I’ll have a schedule.

You should calmly act out the drama at hand first, and don’t think too far ahead. The company will arrange these things for you."

"I see."

Gu Wei did not give a definite answer, but Meng Ziyi still had high hopes for it.
