Huayu is free to do as you like

"Mr. Gu, do you really not want to think about it again? We have had such a happy cooperation this time. You and Director Lin Chaoxian can cooperate again on [Operation Red Sea]. I believe that the future box office will not be lower than [Operation Mekong]."

At the celebration party's wine table, Yu Dong sat next to Gu Wei and asked again sincerely.

Gu Wei smiled and shook his head.

"Dr. Yu, I appreciate your kindness. I read the script of [Operation Red Sea] and liked it very much. Unfortunately, the schedule did not allow it, so I can only regret to miss it.

I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with Director Lin again next time.”

Some time ago, Bona sent Gu Wei the script of "Operation Red Sea" and invited him to play the male protagonist "Yang Rui", the captain of the Dragon Commando, who was Zhang Yi's character in the original version.

To be honest, the script of "Operation Red Sea" is good and the filming is also very good. The original version even scored 3.6 billion at the box office, far exceeding their current "Operation Mekong".

Unfortunately, this movie is a complete group drama.

The plots of "Operation Red Sea" and "Wolf Warrior 2" are actually somewhat similar, both telling stories about the evacuation of overseas Chinese.

But the difference is that [Wolf Warrior 2] is about personal heroism, and the highlight is Wolf Warrior Wu Jing. Of course, the current version is performed by Gu Wei and Wu Jing. They are completely the Chinese version of Rambo.

"Operation Red Sea" is about the team. The real protagonists of the movie are actually the eight members of the Jiaolong Commando.

Even Zhang Yi's role as the captain is not too prominent.

Gu Wei has seen that movie. It lasted for more than two hours, and most of it was a fight. It was very exciting, and I was very moved after watching it, but I had almost no impression of who the leading actor looked like.

Gu Wei has "Wolf Warrior 2" and "The Wandering Earth" will soon be in the bag. There is absolutely no need to star in such a movie with a weak protagonist for the sake of box office.

And the most important thing is that this movie has to travel to more than 10 countries for filming, and the actors have to undergo certain military training before filming starts. The entire filming cycle takes about more than half a year, and Gu Wei really doesn't have that long.

The time it took to shoot "Operation Red Sea" was enough for Gu Wei to shoot two movies for his own company, and he made more money, so the price-performance ratio was really not high.

Seeing that Gu Wei had made up his mind, Yu Dong sighed inwardly.

He really wants to continue to cooperate with Gu Wei, and based on the success of "Operation Mekong", the second collaboration between Lin Chaoxian and Gu Wei will definitely attract more viewers. If Gu Wei can act in "Operation Red Sea", the box office will be great There are no problems at all.

But now that Gu Wei said this, whether it was because of the schedule or not, it meant that he really didn't want to take it, and Yu Dong couldn't persuade him.

The two chatted for a while, and Gu Wei suddenly thought of something.

"Dr. Yu, I would like to ask, I have read the script of [Operation Red Sea]. Has anyone chosen the role of the female reporter "Xia Nan" in it?"

Yu Dong was a little surprised.

"Not yet, [Operation Red Sea] is still in the preparation stage, and the selection of actors has not yet started."

Gu Wei smiled slightly.

"I do have a suitable candidate here that I would like to recommend to Director Yu."

"Oh? Which female star is she?"

"Zhang Tianai, you should have heard of it~"

Yu Dong thought for a moment and then reacted.

"The heroine in the movie [The Richest Man in Xihong City] produced by Gu Corporation?"

"right!

She played a woman-beater in one of my previous dramas [Xiu Chun Knife 2], and she has a very tough temperament. She has no problem playing a war reporter.

Moreover, I filmed [Wolf Warrior 2] with Wu Jing in the first half of the year. She played a female doctor in it. She didn’t have the squeamishness of ordinary actresses at all, and she could adapt to even the harshest shooting conditions.”

Gu Wei feels that he is really a responsible and good boss. He will find resources for his own artists when he has the opportunity, and he will find resources for the heroine of a blockbuster movie like "Operation Red Sea".

Although the role of Hai Qing in the original version was not very prominent and she was considered a side heroine, she could not stand up to the high box office of "Operation Red Sea".

If Zhang Tianai can win, then with "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Tomato Rich Man", she may become the first "10 billion actress" in domestic entertainment.

"I have watched Mr. Gu's "Xiu Chun Dao 2", and the character "Ding Baiying" played by Zhang Tianai in it is indeed very good."

Yu Dong looked up at Gu Wei and felt that he still had to give him this face.

Although Gu Wei didn't agree to the movie "Operation Red Sea" that we were talking about, but for "Operation Mekong" I borrowed his light, and I might have to ask him to collaborate on other movies in the future.

"I don't have any objections here. In this case, Mr. Gu, set a time later and ask Zhang Tianai to come over and try on the mirror so that Director Lin can take a look.

[Operation Red Sea] is Director Lin's play after all, so I couldn't go past him and cast the actor directly. "

Gu Wei listened to Yu Dong's words and picked up the wine glass with a smile.

"Thank you very much, Yu Dong."

Yu Dong quickly picked up the cup and clinked it with him.

"Mr. Gu is too polite, this is all a trivial matter!"

The celebration banquet for Operation Mekong lasted a long time, and it was already dark by the time it ended.

Gu Wei drank a little too much today. As the main contributor to the movie's success, not only did Yu Dong accompany him from beginning to end, but Lin Chaoxian and Zhang Hanyu also respected him. Fortunately, Gu Wei himself had a good drinking capacity, so he was not drunk at all. .

The black Rolls-Royce drove all the way to the underground parking lot of the [Fanyue 108] community, and Gu Wei took the elevator upstairs.

After pressing the code to enter, he took off his coat and threw it aside, then changed his shoes at the entrance.

"I'm home"

Reba, who was in the house, shouted when she heard the door opening, and then trotted over to meet it.

She was wearing loose and comfortable light gray home clothes, a pair of pink bear slippers, a bun, and big black-rimmed glasses. It looked like she had washed herself. Her eyebrows were very light and her lips were not very bright. She is red, but her skin is still fair and tender. Reba's makeup-free look is still effective. When she is not wearing makeup, she loses that noble and glamorous impact and looks a little cute and playful.

Reba was obviously very happy when she saw Gu Wei. With a smile on her face, she picked up the coat he threw aside and turned around to hang it up.

After Gu Wei changed his slippers, he hugged her slim waist from behind, his body was close to hers, his head was buried in her neck, and he took a deep breath.

"It's so itchy~"

Reba was made to giggle by Gu Wei, and then she sniffed lightly.

"You smell so much of alcohol, why did you drink so much today?"

Gu Wei did not raise his head.

"In the evening, I attended the celebration banquet for [Operation Mekong] to exceed 2 billion. Yu Dong, who accompanied Bona, as well as director Lin Chaoxian and Zhang Hanyu drank a little."

Reba knew that Gu Wei had necessary social activities, but she still gave her a worried advice.

"It's better to drink less in the future. Drinking too much is not good for your health."

Gu Wei kissed Reba's snow-white neck from behind and raised the corners of his mouth.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Then he thought about it, grabbed Reba's shoulders and turned her around, put his arms around her slim waist, and looked into her eyes.

"From now on, whether you are filming or attending commercial events, you do not need to drink with anyone. Whether it is investors or the bosses of the endorsement companies, you will always say no to them.

Even if Mr. Zeng of Jiaxing is asked to leave, no matter what problem arises, I will come forward to help you solve it.

understand? "

Hearing Gu Wei's domineering words, Reba had a bright smile on her face.

She now feels that it is good for Gu Wei to drink occasionally, otherwise he would not have said such words to her.

"I know, big boss, I will only accompany you from now on, okay?"

Gu Wei nodded slightly.

"From now on, just focus on acting. Don't worry about the messy things in other circles. Don't worry about it. I will always stand behind you!"

"Okay, okay, big patron, I'll get you hot water and take a bath first to get rid of the alcohol smell."

Reba said as if coaxing a child.

Gu Wei raised his eyebrows, bent slightly and picked up Reba in front of him.

"Ah~ what are you doing?"

After Reba was picked up, she screamed in surprise and put her arms around Gu Wei's neck.

Gu Wei tilted his head.

"Didn't you let me take a bath? Let's go together."

"I asked you to wash. I've already washed myself. Please put me down."

As Reba spoke, she patted Gu Wei's chest with her small hand. Seeing that he had no response, she had no choice but to be carried to the bathroom.

Isn't there a saying, life is like that, since you can't resist, you might as well enjoy it.

And for Reba, this was originally a kind of enjoyment, but it was just a little embarrassing.

More than an hour later, the two of them changed into new couple's pajamas and sat on the sofa.

The smell of alcohol on Gu Wei's body had dissipated, and Reba's legs felt weak as she leaned against him.

"I may be leaving in two days~"

Reba's tone was a little reluctant.

"The TV series [Beautiful Li Huizhen] that the company prepared for me was postponed for two months because of the filming of [You Are My Glory]. Now that [Glory] is finished filming, the drama is about to start filming. "

Gu Wei put his hand on Reba's smooth and beautiful back, stroking it gently.

"That's how it is in our industry. It's normal to gather less and stay apart more often. I'm going to join a filming crew at the end of this month."

"But I can't let you go"

Reba looked up at Gu Wei, frowning slightly, and reached out to touch his cheek.

"Where was the filming location of your drama?"

"Still in Shanghai."

Gu Wei thought for a while.

"Do you still remember the house in [Sunac Binjiang No. 1 Courtyard] we used for filming [You Are My Glory]?"

"Hmm~"

"I have bought the house of the big star "Qiao Jingjing". I will find someone to clean it up after we finish filming. It just so happens that you go to Shanghai to film. If it is not too far away, you can live there. In the future, Ms. "Qiao Jingjing" will be there again. She can live back in her old house.”

"real?

Very good! "

Gu Wei's words surprised Reba. She didn't know that the house where the filming was filmed belonged to Gu Wei, and thought it was just a venue rented by the crew.

After filming the TV series for more than two months, nearly half of the plot took place in that house. She is still very emotional about that place.

Of course, living in a first-line river view room of more than 400 square meters is much more comfortable than a hotel.

"You go to Shanghai to film a movie. If I'm not too busy here, I can take time to visit you."

"real?

Pull the hook! "

Reba said, raising her hand and extending her little finger to Gu Wei.

Gu Wei smiled and cooperated with her.

"Hang yourself with a hook and don't change for a hundred years!"
