The COSMO Fashion Beauty Festival is Asia's top fashion event organized by [Fashion COSMO].

This year, we have joined forces with the Mageely brand to invite over a hundred stars, celebrities, and artists to the event to create the industry's most watched annual ceremony.

Gu Wei has always had a good relationship with these well-known magazines in the domestic fashion circle.

When he first debuted and was not very famous, he was favored by many fashion magazines.

Later, as his reputation grew, he read all kinds of single covers from well-known magazines in the fashion industry.

When he was not yet a celebrity, he attracted the attention of many international luxury brands. This fame in the fashion circle played a vital role.

Today, Gu Wei appears on magazine covers less and less frequently, and this exposure is no longer necessary for him.

But the relationship with various well-known magazines did not end, but extended to his company.

Because he is the boss, the company's young artists have much better fashion resources.

Especially for some newcomers who are not very famous, like Zhou Ming and Tian Xiwei, relying on the company's relationship, they can directly appear on the covers of many well-known magazines, expanding their influence in another dimension.

In order to maintain this relationship, sometimes it is difficult to shirk inviting Gu Wei, such as the COSMO fashion festival on the night of the 3rd.

The flight landed in Shanghai at noon, and Gu Wei undoubtedly appeared on the red carpet of the COSMO fashion festival as the finale.

Walking into the ceremony venue amidst the cheers of fans around him, Liu Yuewei, the editor-in-chief of fashion COSMO, greeted him with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Gu, thank you for your support~"

Liu Yuewei is an old man in the domestic entertainment and fashion circle. He has been the fashion director of one of the five major magazines [Fashion COSMO] since 2007. He was promoted to editor-in-chief in 2015. He is a well-rounded person with extensive connections. He is a fashion media person on the same level as Harper's Bazaar's Su Mang. .

"Editor Liu is very polite. I have cooperated with [Fashion COSMO] for many years and we are all old friends."

The two smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries, and were led by Liu Yuewei through the venue until they reached the big table in the middle of the first row of the stage.

There are no celebrities sitting at this table. They are basically the top practitioners in the fashion industry, such as Sha Xiaoli, who succeeded Su Mang as the new editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar, Zhang Yu, the editor-in-chief of [VOGUE], etc. The only exception is Ms. Guo Miao, the chairman of Maijili, the partner of this ceremony.

After Gu Wei arrived, several editors stood up to greet him, with Guo Miao being particularly enthusiastic.

"Hello, Teacher Gu Wei, I really like your movies and am a fan of yours. Can we take a photo together?"

This Mr. Guo looks to be around 30 years old, with an above-average appearance, a plump figure, and a young woman's style when he smiles.

Maijili is a domestic cosmetics brand. Being able to sponsor [Fashion COSMO] shows that it is not small. To run such a large company at this age, either her father or her husband is rich.

"No problem~" Gu Wei agreed with a smile.

Hearing Gu Wei's words, Guo Miao was very surprised. She took out her mobile phone and sat next to Gu Wei, stretched out her hand to take a selfie, and then asked the photographer to take a picture of the two of them with a professional camera.

"This is the first time I saw you, Mr. Gu Wei, offline. I feel you are even more handsome than in movies and TV shows."

"Mr. Guo, thank you~"

[VOGUE] editor-in-chief Zhang Yu said with a smile: "If Mr. Guo really likes it, you can ask Mr. Gu to be your spokesperson for Maijili.

With Mr. Gu’s endorsement, McGeely’s sales will definitely increase rapidly.”

Guo Miao was very moved when she heard Zhang Yu's words, but after thinking about it she still shook her head: "I think so too, but it's a pity that Mr. Gu's endorsement is too high.

As a small brand, Maijili’s marketing fee for one year may not be enough to pay Mr. Gu’s endorsement fee.”

Gu Wei just smiled when he heard what they said. The two of them were just casual acquaintances. He couldn't lower the price to accept an endorsement just because the other person was a fan of his.

Being a celebrity in the fashion circle is very important for a star because it affects the level of endorsements you can receive, especially for fashion brands such as Red Blood and Blue Blood.

Sometimes these brands are not recognized simply because they are famous or have high national popularity. Comedy stars like Huang Bo and Shen Teng are famous enough, but their image does not match the image and they are not in the fashion circle, so naturally they cannot accept them. to relevant endorsements.

In the fashion circle, celebrity status is mainly measured by exposure on the covers of fashion magazines.

People who can appear on the covers of top international fashion magazines, such as [ELLE], [VOGUE] and [Harper's Bazaar], must at least be celebrities with huge influence in the fashion circle.

This kind of exposure is one of the important indicators to measure a star's status in the fashion circle.

Therefore, magazines of the level of the Five Big Issues naturally become the targets of celebrities.

Sometimes to be in a magazine, not only do you need to be popular, but more importantly, you need to have connections.

There were many celebrities at the COSMO fashion festival today, and Gu Wei naturally attracted a lot of attention when he entered the venue.

Many of them who had a good relationship with him extended their hands to say hello. When they saw Editor Liu Yuewei greeting Gu Wei next to him, no one felt anything was wrong. After all, it was Gu Wei.

"Oh~ I walked over. I thought Brother Wei would come and sit at our table."

Nazha was sitting at a round table on the side. She was wearing a silver sequined feather skirt. The tight cut highlighted her good figure. Her skin was fair and delicate, and her whole body looked white and glowing.

"It's normal. Gu Wei will most likely be with the editors on this occasion, otherwise he won't be able to highlight the importance the organizer attaches to him," Reba, who was at the same table, replied.

Her dress today is equally stunning. She wears a deep V blue mermaid dress, a silver headband on her head, and long earrings of the same color on her ears. She has a high nose bridge and seductive red lips. She is full of beauty.

The organizers also have some ideas about borderland and beauty being in the same frame.

Although they have been compared by some media netizens from time to time in the past two years, because of Gu Wei's relationship, Nazha and Reba's relationship is pretty good.

Nazha became famous early, but she had no ambition, and she was always lying flat or in a state of ruin.

Reba worked hard enough. After "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" and "You Are My Glory" became popular, she worked almost 365 days a year.

Now it has obviously surpassed Nazha in terms of popularity and popularity.

Fortunately, in terms of Nazha's character, she said she didn't fight or compete, but she was actually a little weak. She didn't care much about the fact that Reba, who actually had a certain competitive relationship with her, became famous, and the two of them got along as before.

However, she never knew that her so-called best friend had stolen her home, otherwise she would not be in this normal state of communication.

Of course, maybe with Nazha's character, she would still pretend to be an ostrich even if she knew.

“I saw the Reuters news about you during Paris Fashion Week a few days ago, and the various looks are really beautiful!

I remember you were there on the day of the LV show, right?" Nazha suddenly asked.

"Yes, I'm there."

Nazha suddenly came closer and whispered in Reba's ear: "Then you should have seen Gu Wei and Scarlett Johansson at the scene.

Are the two of them acting very close like what was said in the news? "

Reba blinked her big eyes: "It's okay. They are LV's global spokespersons and have the opportunity to work together. They do seem to have a good relationship."

Listening to Reba's words, Nazha didn't say anything, but pouted her mouth slightly to express her dissatisfaction.

After Gu Wei entered the venue, there were a lot of celebrities paying attention to him. In addition to Nazha and Reba, there were four beauties sitting at the same table: Ni Ni, Liu Shishi, baby, and Jingtian. At the other table were Jing Bairan and Song. Qian, Xiao Zhan, Wu Lei, Song Zuer and so on.

Soon it was time for the ceremony to begin, and the organizers invited actor Wang Yaoqing and Blueberry Channel's Zhu Dan to be the hosts of tonight's ceremony.

The opening dance was a bit unique, and it was actually the host Wang Yaoqing who was in charge.

However, he danced pretty well and worked very hard to show off his coquettish dance moves.

Gu Wei has no contact with Wang Yaoqing. He only knows that he has always played rich people in film and television dramas. As long as he appears, the audience will know who is the richest in the drama.

"Wang Yaoqing is a very interesting person. The host Editor Liu has found is very interesting." Gu Wei smiled and said to Liu Yuewei beside him.

"I also think he has a great sense of humor and is suitable for creating the atmosphere of the ceremony."

Like all ceremonies, the main content of the COSMO Fashion Ceremony is the award presentation.

From low to high, from some little stars to the top celebrities, as the ceremony went by, awards were awarded one after another.

Until the end of the ceremony, almost the most important "Dream Person of the Year" began to be awarded.

There are twenty people in total for this award, and all the winners were divided into two groups to go on stage to receive their awards.

Following the host's announcement, the first people to take to the stage were: Zhang Lina, Jingtian, Ni Ni, Nazha, Zhou Bishang, Reba, Huang Xuan, Han Geng, and Xiao Zhan.

After the ten people walked onto the stage, they lined up in a row. The award-winning guests came on stage to present awards to everyone, and then entered the interview session with host Zhu Dan.

Zhu Dan asked everyone one question: Apart from your current job, what would your second dream be if you had the chance?

When I asked about the first Xiao Station, it was relatively normal. There were no mistakes in either the questions or the answers.

Xiao Zhan said he wanted to engage in art-related work. Zhu Dan asked what specifically he wanted to do, and he replied that he wanted to paint.

After wishing Xiao Zhan to become a well-known painter, it was the turn of the second winner, supermodel Zhang Lina.

As a result, Zhu Dan called Zhang Lina Zhou Lina when she first came on board. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and changed it right away. No one paid much attention to it. It is understandable that the host occasionally makes small mistakes. In this case, CCTV only deducts 200 bucks.

Then Jingtian and Ni Ni went relatively smoothly, until it was Nazha's turn. Zhu Dan didn't know whether he was really unfamiliar with her or just couldn't figure them out, so he called Nazha "Dilraba Dilraba" ", and handed the microphone to her mouth naturally, without feeling that she had done anything wrong at all.

Everyone on the stage and off the stage was stunned. Gu Wei, who was sitting in the front row, also opened his eyes slightly. He did not expect that the famous scene of Zhu Dan's interview collapse would occur at this grand ceremony.

The scene was a bit embarrassing, but Nazha, the victim, didn't mind too much and said with a smile: "My name is Guli Nazha."

"Nazha, I'm sorry, Sao Rui Naza!" Only then did Zhu Dan react. His "Sao Rui" sound was so typical, and his pretentious voice made everyone present laugh.

After Nazha finished speaking, it was Zhou Dongyu's turn. The mistake just now had a great impact on Zhu Dan. She directly handed the microphone to him and said bluntly, "Speak for yourself, Dongyu, I'm nervous."

After Zhou Dongyu finished, it was Zhou Bi's turn to sing more briefly, and Zhu Dan called out his name directly.

But whether it was another mistake on her part or an inaccurate pronunciation, what Gu Wei heard in the audience was clearly "ugly singing".

This can be regarded as Zhou Bi Sang's nickname after she became famous. Because of her appearance, she was once called "Ugly Bi Sang" by her fans. Now that a professional host officially said it in public, Zhou Bi Sang took over. His face turned dark when he was on the microphone.

After Zhou Bichang passed, when it was Reba's turn, Zhu Dan seemed to be trying to make up for the mistake he had just made by teasing her, calling her Naza directly.

Reba took the microphone calmly and finished her speech normally as if she hadn't heard anything, without being affected in any way.

The COSMO fashion festival was over, and Gu Wei's cell phone kept ringing. He knew what was going on without even looking.

Reba, Nazha and Da Tiantian were all at the scene, and it was estimated that Ni Ni could also find him.

He went back to the hotel directly, tactfully responded to everyone's messages, and sent Naza the hotel room number.

Not surprisingly, tonight’s horse-catching scene quickly became a hot topic.

Continuously calling her by the wrong name made netizens question Zhu Dan's professionalism, and many fans even went to her Weibo to start crazy attacks and abuses.

If there were no accidents, this hosting accident would have dealt a big blow to Zhu Dan's hosting career.

But she couldn't rely on others. She, a professional host for many years, made consecutive low-level mistakes in such a big ceremony, and she would definitely have to pay the price for it.

Entering December, this year’s Lunar New Year movie war has officially begun.

During the first weekend, four excellent domestic and foreign films including "The Whistleblower", "The Party at Southern Station", "Ad Astra" and "Jumanji 2: Battle to the Top" were released.

I originally thought it would be a battle between dragons and tigers, but several highly anticipated blockbusters have jointly heated up the currently somewhat cold movie market, kicking off this year's Lunar New Year season.

As a result, after the first week, I discovered that there was a fight between rookies. Some had good reputation but low box office, and some had double reputation and box office.

First of all, there are two Hollywood blockbusters, "Ad Astra" and "Jumanji 2: Battle to the Top", one is science fiction and the other is fantasy.

[Jumanji 2] is not as well-received as the first one, and the box office for the first three days was only 173 million yuan, but with this result it is still the daily champion and weekly champion in the current TV market.

[Ad Astra] only had a measly 19.5 million box office in its first week, and Brad Pitt couldn't save this bad science fiction movie.

[Interstellar Exploration] is not just being ignored in China. This science fiction blockbuster invested by Fox Pictures has already landed in North American theaters as early as September 20. It has earned a total of 50.18 million U.S. dollars in North America. It has also opened in 53 countries and regions overseas. painting, overseas revenue was US$76.98 million.

The total cost of the movie is US$100 million. According to the box office calculation, the box office needs to reach US$300 million to recover the money. However, it has only received US$127 million in global box office. Obviously, this film will bring more than US$60 million to Fox. huge losses.

Two domestic films, "The Party at Southern Station" is a crime-themed drama. Director Diao Yinan directed "Fireworks in the Day" and won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival for that work.

However, the [Party at Southern Station] did not reach the level of [Daytime Fireworks] at all.

It can be seen that although it is a crime-themed drama, Director Diao also wants to make a success at the box office.

After all, "Young You" has just been released not long ago. It is also a crime-themed drama, and it has sold more than 2 billion at the box office.

Zeng Guoxiang cannot compare with him in terms of qualifications and past achievements.

On the first day of its release, the film received 26% of the top rankings, but the box office on the first day was only 43.27 million.

After grossing 130 million in the first three days of the week, the single-day box office dropped to just over 10 million.

Maoyan's final box office forecast for the movie is 200 million. Based on the total investment of the movie of 100 million, the box office producer will suffer a slight loss.

However, "The Gathering at Southern Station" was shortlisted in Cannes. With Diao Yinan's fame, some copyrights should be sold in Europe and North America to help the producers recoup their costs.

Brother Hu really doesn't have much box office appeal in movies. He became famous early, has a lot of fans, and is popular with the public. The "Sword of Immortal" series gave him a thick filter in the hearts of the audience.

But acting is a matter of opinion. When you meet a suitable role, you can perform well, such as Po in "Flowers"; once you are not suitable, your huge acting flaws will be exposed immediately, like in "The Pretender". , is obviously the real male lead, but he is stretched by Jin Dong's various acting skills.

And like Liu Yifei, his fans only stay at the stage of online praise, and disappear as soon as they spend money to watch movies in cinemas.

Maybe their fans also know that their idol’s movies are most likely not very good.

Another movie "The Whistleblower" was even worse, losing both box office and reputation.

The box office in the first three days was only 30.42 million yuan, and the single-day box office on Monday of the second week was only a pitiful 5.21 million yuan. It is estimated that the profit of the producer was not enough to cover the salaries of Tang Wei and Lei Jiayin.

When the two leading actors were interviewed while promoting the movie, they were asked, "What do you dislike most about each other?"

Lei Jiayin couldn't wait to express that she couldn't stand it when Tang Wei always went to the toilet during filming and "peeed too much."

Then he complained: "I took 10 shots, at least 3 times. When my feelings were brewing, Tang Wei told the director that he needed to go to the toilet."

During the interview, it was obvious that Tang Wei was emotionally embarrassed and collapsed, with tears in his eyes.

As soon as the show aired, Lei Jiayin was criticized by netizens for having low emotional intelligence and disrespecting women.

Time soon came to December 11th, and the premiere ceremony of "Manslaughter" was held in Beijing.
