Huayu is free to do as you like

Liu Duanduan and Zhang Haowei certainly would not refuse Gu Wei's kindness.

Guo Qilin called out, and everyone went out together in the evening, which was considered a small team-building activity among the young actors in the crew.

First, they went to a nearby restaurant with more characteristics to eat, and then went to the nearest cinema to watch "My Motherland and Me".

After the movie, someone suggested whether to go to karaoke, but considering that there was still a scene to shoot tomorrow, everyone went back to the crew hotel together.

After washing up, Jing Tian came out of the bathroom with her hair wiped, sat down on the sofa, and put her slender and white legs on Gu Wei.

"The movie I watched today is quite good, and several units are very touching, especially "Winning the Championship" and "The Eve".

And the female pilot played by Zhang Tianai in "Escort" is so handsome, I feel itchy in my heart, and I feel that I can play that role too!"

Gu Wei was reading the script. He has a lot of scenes every day, so he basically keeps the script in his hand when he is free. If nothing else, at least the lines must be memorized in advance, and you can't recite them one, two, three, four when shooting.

Da Tiantian came over, he put the script aside, and put one hand on the other's cold and white legs, which felt great.

"The movie must be good, otherwise it wouldn't be so popular now and get such a high box office.

Zhang Tianai has a heroic spirit, suitable for playing a heroic female pilot."

Jing Tian took a bath and was completely bare-faced. Her facial features were as beautiful as ever, her skin was white and transparent, and she had a kind of beauty of lotus out of clear water, which was not much inferior to makeup.

I have to say that Da Tiantian's foundation is really good.

"I remember Zhang Tianai is an actress in your company, right?"

"Yes, she is considered the number one sister of [Weiming World], and she has been in the company since its establishment..."

Jing Tian curled his lips: "Let's not talk about whether she is heroic or not, this role is obviously chosen by you, and director Wen Mu is also yours?"

"Hahaha, that's right, isn't that the case in the entertainment industry, most opportunities depend on relationships!" Gu Wei reached out and hugged Jing Tian in his arms. The soft body had a faint fragrance after washing.

Of course, it is most likely the smell of shower gel and shampoo.

"Starting from Ding Baiying in [The Blade of the Assassin], Zhang Tianai has been rising all the way, and has obtained many film and television resources that many female stars in the entertainment industry are jealous of.

After [Operation Red Sea], she became the first female actress in the domestic entertainment industry with a salary of 10 billion yuan.

How did she get all these resources? Everyone knows it. It's nothing more than you, the boss, helping her behind the scenes."

Jing Tian originally came from a resource-rich family. Now when talking about Zhang Tianai, who is even more powerful than her, there is a hint of jealousy in her words.

"She is an artist under my company who helps me make money. Of course, I will promote her if I can. Moreover, Zhang Tianai is really motivated. Her image is more suitable for many roles."

The first two female artists signed by Gu Wei's company were Zhang Tianai and Nazha.

The two have different routes. The company has tilted more resources to Zhang Tianai, while Nazha has much less, that is, one [Love O2O].

It's not that Gu Wei is partial. Nazha is beautiful. If she doesn't imagine the super-matching role in "Sewing Machine Band" when acting, the effect will really not be good.

The company is more about getting her some fashion resources. After all, in terms of beauty, these sisters are not inferior to anyone in the entertainment industry.

And Nazha is not very career-oriented. If it weren't for the company's arrangement, she would take a break whenever she could, and always think about going out with Gu Wei.

With Gu Wei around, she can't be short of money and is easy to satisfy.

Relatively speaking, Zhang Tianai, who has a lower background and starting point, is more career-oriented. The filming of "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Operation Red Sea" was very hard, but she was able to grit her teeth and stick to it.

Jingtian knew that what Gu Wei said made sense, so he didn't bring up this topic again and continued to talk about movies.

". The seven units are almost the same, but the last "Daytime Meteor" doesn't feel good, it feels a bit weird"

"Haha." Gu Wei couldn't help laughing after listening to Da Tiantian's evaluation.

"Can you tell the theme of [Daytime Meteor]?"

"It should be poverty alleviation and aerospace, which is quite clear."

Gu Wei nodded.

"Look at the other units, [Return], [Escort], [Winning] are all very straightforward. Isn't it a bit like a chicken joining a flock of ducks with the addition of [Daytime Meteor], which is not very harmonious?"

"Really"

"I heard that when Director Chen was selecting the subject matter, he was humble and the one he wanted the most was picked by Zhang Yibai, and the poverty alleviation theme was left.

After all, he is a well-known director and the chief director of [My Motherland and Me]. He must want to make a story different from others, otherwise how can he show his ability as a great director.

The result is that he overdoes it, the story is too artistic, and the audience's evaluation is not high."

Gu Wei told Da Tiantian his thoughts.

The theme of poverty alleviation is actually easier to shoot. After all, there are many movies about poverty alleviation, and you can get a passing score if you follow the steps.

But that doesn't reflect the brilliance of Director Chen, so he thought of inviting the gods.

First, he invited Tian Zhuangzhuang to act.

How to describe this feeling? Liu Haoran is a young man, Chen Feiyu is a silly boy, and then they met Jesus, and then Jesus died, and they saw a miracle.

So God came on stage, and Director Chen invited two real astronauts.

The moment the two young men lifted the astronauts, it was a very religious scene.

They were touched, they were called, and they decided to stay.

There is an indescribable sense of tearing between "the coming of the God of Space" and "getting rid of poverty and becoming rich".

Even ordinary audiences can see the inappropriateness in it, so it is reasonable that [Daytime Meteor] was ridiculed by the crowd on the Internet.

However, Director Chen probably doesn't care, because he thinks his level is too high. It's not that he didn't shoot well, but that people couldn't understand it.

Even if he was promoting his son, he didn't change his artistic pursuit.

To be honest, the casting of [Celebrating Yu Nian] is really successful.

In addition to some old actors, the performance of young actors is also very outstanding.

The most typical ones are Liu Duanduan and Zhang Haowei who played the second prince and the prince.

Both of them graduated from the Central Academy of Drama, Liu Duanduan is a junior college, and Zhang Haowei is a bachelor's degree. They are not very old. They are currently small artists on the 18th line and have no fame.

But it must be said that the two have solid acting skills. The two most important male supporting roles in the first part, the second prince and the prince, made them play vividly, and they are no worse than the old actors in the crew.

The reason why [Celebrating More Than Years] has become a huge hit and the most popular TV series with a male lead after [Nirvana in Fire] is that in addition to the reasonable, interesting and suspenseful plot, the vivid acting skills of the actors are also one of the important factors.

As time goes by, while Gu Wei is filming in the crew, the box office of [My Motherland and Me] has exceeded 2.5 billion in two weeks, and the box office of [The Captain] has also exceeded 2.2 billion. The box office of [The Climbers] is limited by word of mouth and is only more than 900 million, which is a huge difference from the previous two.

From [The Founding of a Republic] to [Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy], [Operation Mekong], [Operation Red Sea], etc., to [My Motherland and Me] and [The Captain] in this year's National Day, no one doubts the money-making ability of main theme movies.

"According to the current box office trend, the box office of [My Motherland and Me] and [The Captain] should both exceed 3 billion. The performance of the film market during this year's National Day is too good, almost comparable to the Lunar New Year's Day in previous years."

After lunch, several leading actors chatted in the lounge.

Jing Tian slid his fingers lightly, looking at the reports about the two movies and sighed.

"This year is special, and now the main theme movies are the hottest. There are so many stars joining [My Motherland and Me], so it is not surprising that it can achieve the current results," said Gu Wei.

"I feel that the current domestic film market is too magical, with box office revenues of 200 to 300 million yuan at any time.

According to the current trend, the final box office of [The Climbers] should also exceed 1 billion yuan, but there are still many people who say that this movie has failed.

When I first started filming, a movie with a box office of over 1 billion yuan was a super hit!" Jing Tian sighed.

"The times are developing, and the domestic film market has been improving. The trend is that the box office of a single film is getting higher and higher.

However, it is almost at the limit now. The population is so small. Unless the movie ticket price is increased in the future, the highest box office may be the level of [Wolf Warrior 2] at the time."

The domestic market has its limits, and Gu Wei is very clear about this.

Moreover, affected by the Bingbing incident last year, policies are tightening and capital is running away. From 2018 to now, nearly 700 entertainment-related companies have been deregistered.

Capital is very realistic. When the entertainment industry was hot, a lot of hot money was invested. Now that the market is gradually cooling down, everyone is naturally holding their wallets tight.

The winter of film and television is coming

"The movie hasn't been released yet, but because the performance is so good, I heard that someone at China Film has proposed to make a trilogy."

"Trilogy? How can such a patchwork story be made into a trilogy?" Tian Xiwei on the side was surprised.

Yang Chaoyue, who played Ye Ling'er, has already finished filming and left the crew. She doesn't have many scenes.

[Celebrating More Than Years] has been filming for nearly two months. In addition to Gu Wei, Guo Qilin, Tian Xiwei and even the heroine Jing Tian are almost done.

"After the all-star cast of [Founding of a Republic], didn't they continue to film [Founding of the Party] and [Founding of the Army]?

If there is no connection on the timeline, you can change the theme, change two themes and make two more films. As long as you make money, there will always be a way." Gu Wei shrugged.

"Qilin, what are your plans after filming [Joy of Life]?"

After filming a scene in which Fan Xian went to Beiqi to say goodbye in the afternoon, Guo Qilin and Tian Xiwei officially finished filming.

"Are you going back to perform crosstalk?" Jing Tian also asked curiously.

"Oh! What crosstalk? I haven't performed crosstalk for the whole year this year.

I plan to try my best to develop in the entertainment industry in the future. Brothers and sisters, don't forget me if you have suitable work. It's absolutely good value for money." Guo Qilin squinted his eyes and smiled and bowed his hands.

"You have to ask your brother Wei. He is the big boss here. As long as he asks, you will still worry about not having a job?" Jing Tian turned the topic to Gu Wei.

Guo Qilin smiled and looked at Gu Wei without saying anything.

"I signed a three-season contract with you for [Joy of Life]. Now is only the first season. There will be two more seasons in the future, and your work is indispensable."

"When will the next two seasons start filming?" Jing Tian asked before Guo Qilin spoke.

"The scripts for the last two seasons have not been completed yet. I plan to wait until the first season is released before starting the second season, and strive to complete the "Joy of Life" series within the next three years."

Gu Wei is not a person who delays the release of the second season. It is impossible for him to do such a thing as five years after the first season is released.

If the time is delayed too long, there will be a big change in the most basic actors.

For example, the original Zhang Ruoyun was fat in the first season, and went to Northern Qi. After returning from the second season, she became much thinner.

Fan Sizhe played by Guo Qilin has gained a lot of weight, Ruoruo played by Song Yi has aged visibly, and other characters have changed more or less even though the timeline in the drama is very short, less than half a year.

There are also actors who are replaced for various reasons, which will actually give the audience a bad experience.

After all, the original version is preconceived, so as long as the performance is not too bad, it is better not to change it.

Anyway, Gu Wei does not plan to replace any actors. Currently, the main actors have signed a three-season contract, but some new characters will appear in the second and third seasons.

Yan Bingyun played by Xiao Zhan will also play the full three seasons, even though he is now more and more famous and has become a top star.

"Next year, there will be an online variety show produced by [Wajijiwa] and Tengxun. It is a social outdoor reality show. Qilin, if you have time, you can be the main guest." Gu Wei thought for a while and said.

He has already told Long Danni about the idea of ​​[Fifty Kilometers Peach Blossom Cottage]. [Wajijiwa] is preparing for it, and the chief director is Xie Dikui, the chief director of Mango TV's [Where Are We Going, Dad].

Director Xie resigned from Mango TV after directing "Where Are We Going, Dad Season 3" in 2015. Since then, he has been producing variety shows for major video platforms, but they are all small-scale.

With his rich experience in variety show production, it is not difficult for him to direct "Fifty Kilometers Peach Blossom Cottage".

"I have time, I definitely have time. How can I miss the opportunity you introduced to me, Brother Wei? Even if I don't have time and have to postpone other things, I will participate."

Guo Qilin nodded without hesitation. He was not interested in the opportunity to be on this variety show, but the closer relationship with Gu Wei.

He knew the value of Gu Wei's friends. Zhang Yishan, Li Xian, and Yang Zi were all good examples. Because of Gu Wei, they got good opportunities and became famous one by one.

"Boss, can I go?" Tian Xi asked weakly.

Gu Wei touched his chin: "I have arranged for Meng Ziyi and Zhou Ye from the company to go, so you don't have to go. There are too many people and it feels like a gathering of our company's artists.

If you want to be on this type of variety show, I will ask later if I can arrange you to be on next year's [Running Man]."

Tian Xiwei opened her eyes wide: "[Running Man] has two female hosts, Baby and Song Yuqi, can we add more girls?"

"[Running Man Season 3] has a sharp drop in ratings due to a major personnel change, and the audience is also very dissatisfied, so we have to change people in the fourth season. It should be no problem to arrange you in."

With the good cooperative relationship between Gu Wei and Blueberry TV for so many years, this face is still there.

He looked Tian Xiwei up and down, considering whether to let her follow Bai Lu's route in the future. It is not shameful to become famous through variety shows.

Xiao Tian is rich and generous, as if he can let go. As long as he doesn't have the burden of being an idol, it is not too difficult to shine in variety shows.

Many stars are too reserved on variety shows and can't let go, so the effect is not good.

"Oh, by the way, when I was talking to General Manager Yang two days ago, she told me that iQiyi is preparing a youth-themed TV series, which is a low-cost shared drama.

Although the director is a newcomer, the story is very good, and the image of the heroine is very suitable for you. She is trying to get you a role.

If there is no problem, you can join the crew to shoot your first female lead drama in your life after the filming of [Celebrating More Than Years] is finished."

Good news came one after another during the chat, and Tian Xi couldn't stop smiling.

"Thank you, boss, I will definitely work hard and live up to your and the company's expectations!!

Can I ask what the name of the TV series is?"

"[So Cute We], a very warm story, I will have someone send you the script later, you can read it first"

Looking at Tian Xiwei in excitement, Guo Qilin was envious.

This is the benefit of having a backstage, you don't have to work hard, resources are directly fed to your mouth, he also wants to act as the male lead in a drama, but [Deyun Club] has a bad reputation in the film and television industry, he has never proved himself, and no one wants him.

Relying on his father's connections and relationships, he can only appear in some variety shows at most.

However, he was concerned about the current situation of [Running Man] when Gu Wei said that he might go home and ask his father if he would have a chance since Blueberry TV will change people next year.

"You have arranged for both of them, so what about me?" Jing Tian tilted her head slightly, looking at Gu Wei with her beautiful eyes, her eyes were drawn, which reminded him of their interaction last night. Da Tiantian's body was really soft and her skin was super good.

"Tiantian, what are you comparing with them? Xiaotian and Qilin are both newcomers. You are so popular and still lack work?"

After [Si Teng], Jing Tian really became popular. Not only did he get a lot of endorsements, but he also received many script invitations.

"That's different. What I can get is mine, and what you find for me is yours." Jing Tian's tone was a bit coquettish. Although they were in the crew, there were only four of them, and except for Gu Wei, they were almost finished, so Da Tiantian didn't pay much attention.

Guo Qilin and Tian Xiwei, who were sitting on the side, didn't say a word and ate melons silently.

This is the first time Guo Qilin has worked with Gu Wei. He has long seen that Jing Tian and Gu Wei have a special relationship, but he is very smart and knows what can be said and what cannot be said.

Tian Xiwei's heart is different.

She joined "Wei Ming Tianxia" very early. When she was filming "You Are My Glory", she knew that the boss and Reba were not in a clear relationship. Later, she heard some other rumors in the company.

This time, everyone was filming together every day for "Celebrating Yu Nian". Guo Qilin could see it. She is not blind.

'The boss is so bad, but he is so handsome, rich and famous, so it seems normal.

Why don't you cheat on me? Is it because I'm not pretty enough? ’

Tian Xiwei had all kinds of thoughts in her head. Before she became an artist, Gu Wei was her idol. Every fan has a dream in their heart, that is, something can happen with their idol.

This mentality is not gender-specific.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many male stars who sleep with their fans.

In fact, Tian Xiwei should be thankful that she has a better chance after becoming an artist, because the rule that Gu Wei set for himself is that no matter how bad he is, he will never have a relationship with an amateur.

Tian Xiwei looked at Jing Tian beside her and felt a little discouraged.

‘It seems that I am a little worse than Sister Tiantian and Sister Reba.’

But she regained her confidence in the blink of an eye, straightened her back and held her chest high.

‘But I am young and have my own advantages.’

No one around her knew what she was thinking. Gu Wei spread his hands helplessly after hearing what Jing Tian said.

“There is no role suitable for you at the moment. As for variety shows, with your popularity, I guess the program crew will welcome any one you want to appear in.”

Jing Tian looked at Gu Wei and laughed.

"I'm just kidding.

We're going to shoot two more seasons of [Celebrating Yu Nian] together, and this is enough."
