"When will our movie [Life Events] be released?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will be next summer. Why, are you anxious?

This is the second time you’ve asked me, remember I told you last year when we were filming.”

Xin Zhilei pursed her lips and smiled:

"After all, this is my first movie with you. Brother Wei, your movie will definitely be a big hit. Am I just waiting to take advantage of it~"

Gu Wei glanced at her: "Aren't you popular enough now? You've already appeared in Wong Kar-Wai's TV series, and Begonia Duoduo is also considered to be out of the circle."

"Qing Yu Nian", which was aired in the summer this year, is a phenomenon-level hit drama, and many actors in the drama have reaped dividends.

Jingtian's "Lin Waner", Tian Yu's "Wang Qinian", Guo Qilin's "Fan Sizhe", Tian Xiwei's "Fan Ruoruo" and Xin Zhilei's "Begonia Duoduo".

I can't say it's a big hit, but its popularity among the people and the audience's favorability has increased a lot.

"Also, because of my elegant and noble temperament, after [Qing Yu Nian] was aired, many netizens said that my "Begonia Duoduo" was particularly rustic."

Gu Wei smiled and said: "The original "Begonia Blossoms" has a strong local flavor, which shows that you did a good job."

Xin Zhilei and Gu Wei have known each other for more than two years and have collaborated on three dramas.

When I was filming [Life Events], I was still calling Teacher Gu Wei, very reserved.

Now that we are filming "Qing Yu Nian 2", Xin Zhilei has become completely familiar with Gu Wei. They talk and chat very casually, and there is a sense of relaxation unique to Northeastern women.

"No, I still have to be elegant. People say that my appearance and temperament are very high-end!"

Xin Zhilei straightened his body, suppressed his smile, and acted gracefully, but when he saw Gu Wei's expression that was half-smiling but not smiling, his success was broken in a second.

"What do you mean by looking at me like this? Am I not elegant?"

The corner of Gu Wei's mouth raised slightly: "Elegant, definitely elegant. You have already played "Li Li", how can you not be elegant?"

"How do you know my role in [Flowers]?"

"Please, Wong Kar-Wai wanted to invite me to play "Mr. Bao" at the beginning. I received the script, but I refused because of the schedule."

"It's a pity. Although filming was very tiring, I feel that [Flowers] will be an excellent TV series. It would be perfect if you played Mr. Bao!"

After saying that, Xin Zhilei realized that there was something wrong with what he just said, and quickly added: "I'm not saying that Teacher Hu Ge's acting is not good, his Mr. Bao is great.

The main reason is that we have worked together several times, and I feel that acting will be more comfortable."

Gu Wei shrugged: "There are many good movies and TV series. Although [Flowers] is good, it is not cost-effective for me."

"There should be a wedding banquet tonight, right?" Xin Zhilei suddenly asked.

"Of course~"

"Tsk, tsk, I'm a little embarrassed to be attending the finals banquet just a week after joining the team."

"Haha, I don't see what you're embarrassed about. How about having a drink together tonight?"

Xin Zhilei is also a bit of a drinker. When [Life Events] and [Qing Yu Nian 1] were finalized, he was the contestant who sat at the main table and drank with Gu Wei.

“Everyone is so happy, let’s have a few drinks”

Xin Zhilei made a little gesture with a hearty smile on his face.

[Send You a Little Red Flower] began pre-release promotions in early December.

First, the official trailer of the "Treasure" version was released, and then the "Little Red Flower" character poster, the "Little Sunflower" collector's edition poster, and the "Flowers Smiling at You" family version poster where the main characters gathered were released.

In the "Flowers Smile at You" poster, Gu Wei stands in the middle of the play, with Gao Yalin and Zhu Yuanyuan on one side, and Liu Haocun and Xia Yu on the other.

The two families looked back at the camera with bright smiles, and the family photo was very warm.

The day after filming of "Qing Yu Nian 2" was completed, Gu Wei returned to the capital. After a night's rest, he attended the premiere ceremony of "Send You a Little Red Flower".

This film was shot and produced by Han Yan's team, and the distribution was handed over to China Film.

As an actor, he only needs to cooperate with the publicity work and does not need to worry too much.

The premiere ceremony was undoubtedly very successful. After the movie, many viewers had tears in their eyes, especially the female viewers' eyes were red.

"Teacher Gu Wei, what made you accept this movie?"

After the film ended and the main creators came on stage, the reporters present began to ask questions.

“I don’t know if you still remember the movie [I’m Not the God of Medicine] from two years ago.

I was the first to get that script.

Unfortunately, my age and image are too different from "Cheng Yong", so I can't play the role, so I can only play the role of the protagonist's brother-in-law.

It's a bit of a pity.

Later I received the script "Send You a Little Red Flower".

Although the content expressed by "God of Medicine" is different, it is still a very good story.

Moreover, I have always heard of Director Han Yan’s name, and it is a great pleasure to have the opportunity to work together.”

"Director Han Yan, what was it like to work with Teacher Gu Wei for the first time?"

Han Yan took the phone with a smile on his face.

"Gu Wei just said that he heard my name, but it's actually me who heard his name~"

After he finished speaking, the audience laughed.

“To be honest, when I invited Gu Wei, I didn’t expect him to take on this script. After all, [A Little Red Flower for You] is a movie about cancer patients, and it had no potential to be a big hit.

I was very surprised when I received the reply from him, it felt like it was pie in the sky.

At that time, I told the assistant director next to me that it was settled now, Gu Wei took over the role, and we didn’t have to worry about whether it was a good ticket or not, we could just shoot it with our heart.”

Speaking of which, the audience was happy again, and everyone could understand Han Yan's psychology.

The king of box office has become a label for Gu Wei. The director of the movie he stars in really does not need to care about future box office results.

"Of course, this was my thought before the filming started. After the filming was completed, I had a deeper understanding of Teacher Gu Wei.

I can only say that he has such a good reputation. He gave me a lot of advice during the filming process, and [Send You a Little Red Flower] finally had such a good effect."

When asked by the media, Han Yan praised Gu Wei.

What he had in mind was very simple, and he wasn't just trying to flatter Gu Wei.

[A Little Red Flower for You] All the people in the crew combined did not care about the popularity of one person. The box office depends entirely on him, so no matter what we talk about, we just try to get closer to him.

"Director Han is so polite. The film is the result of the joint efforts of the entire team."

Gu Wei said modestly.

After asking about the actor and director, the media turned their attention to Liu Haocun.

This is the debut of "Mou Girl". Although the box office of [One Second] is not high, Liu Hao's performance in the film is remarkable, and it is currently very popular.

“.I am honored to join the cast of [Send You a Little Red Flower], and I am also very happy to be filming with Brother Wei.

Brother Wei taught me a lot during the cooperation, and I am very grateful.”

Liu Haocun said with a fair face and big innocent eyes.

Gu Wei turned his head and looked at her in surprise. After not seeing her for a while, he felt that she was good at emotional intelligence.

At the end of the premiere ceremony, some media asked the creators about their predictions for the movie's box office.

"Thank you for everyone's support. The current pre-sale box office of the movie is good. I hope the final box office will exceed 1 billion." This is the prediction of the Korean director, and it is indeed his true thought.

When it was Gu Wei's turn, he said unceremoniously: "I have confidence in this movie, which is the result of everyone's hard work. There should be no problem if the box office exceeds 1.5 billion. The final box office will be 2 billion."

The lights of the media's cameras flickered. When Han Yan said one billion, everyone thought it was normal, and when Gu Wei said two billion, no one was surprised.

Although movies like "A Little Red Flower for You" that focus on cancer patients are not very competitive at the box office, no one will underestimate this drama with Gu Wei joining the cast.

Last year's "Young You" had the same unflattering theme, but it still took over 2 billion at the box office.

As long as Gu Wei joins a movie, the subject matter is no longer a reason to limit it.

In the minds of many viewers, Gu Wei's movies have been equated with good movies, and they want to watch them no matter what the subject matter is.

"How much is the pre-sale box office for [Send You a Little Red Flower] now?"

After the premiere ceremony, Gu Wei asked Yang Dan on the way back in the car.

"Currently it has exceeded 100 million. The next two days will be the main period for pre-sale box office growth. It is expected to exceed 200 million before the release."

Gu Wei nodded.

He remembered that the original version of "Little Red Flower" of "Thousand Seals of Time and Space" had a box office of over 1 billion, so he gave a prediction of 2 billion to exceed the 1.5 billion target.

Looking at the few movies released around New Year's Day, none of them can win. This prediction does not seem difficult to achieve.

"Boss, where are we going?" Yang Dan asked.

Gu Wei thought for a while: "Palm Springs International Apartment"

Nazha was in the capital, which Gu Wei knew before returning from Xiangshan Film and Television City.

However, he didn't say hello in advance when he went over tonight, so he gave the other party a small surprise.

After a while, the two of them took a bath together.

The weather in Beijing is still very cold in December, so a hot bath is comfortable and relieves fatigue after a busy day.

An hour later, Gu Wei relaxed, and Nazha relaxed even more from the inside out.

"When shall we set off?"

With a red face and no hair, Nazha nestled in Gu Wei's arms.

"Don't worry, I won't forget what I promised you. I have arranged for someone to book a small island in the Maldives. Then there will only be two of us, so we can play freely."

"It's just the two of us, what about eating?"

Gu Wei helplessly touched Naza's head.

“What I mean is that the island does not receive other tourists except us, and there is no shortage of service personnel and entertainment facilities.

It feels like you are getting stupider and stupider.”

"Isn't it better to be stupid? Anyway, I'm in charge of Meimei. Everything else is up to you."

Naza said indifferently.

"Then when do we leave?"

"In a few days, wait for the New Year's Day box office of [Send You A Little Red Flower] to be released. The company has some things to deal with, and I still have a few dinners to attend."

Gu Wei hugged Naza, put one hand on her smooth and beautiful back, and held the smooth jade dumpling in the other.

"What kind of dinner? Can I go?"

"Um~ It's not impossible."

Yu Dong can take Nazha with him if he makes an appointment with him. As for Brother Zhuan, who has already agreed to take Xiaotian with him, it is not convenient.

On December 31, the day before the New Year's Day holiday and the last day of 2020, "A Little Red Flower for You" will be officially released nationwide.

Also released on the same day was the comedy movie "Warm Hug" directed and starring Chang Yuan.

This is a comedy film adapted from the Korean movie "Plan Man". The male and female protagonists are Chang Yuan and Li Qin respectively.

However, when the movie was promoted, Shen Teng was placed in the most important position in the middle of the poster. In the trailer, Shen Teng also took up a large proportion. Those who didn't know him thought he was the protagonist.

There is no doubt that this is another comedy movie that competes for "Teng content".

The plot is a little better than "Li Cha's Aunt" in the previous two years, but it is far from excellent.

Chang Yuan is really not funny, and he and Li Qin don't have any CP feeling together.

To be honest, they are not as good as Qiao Shan and Peng Yuchang together, and the plot of "Warm Hug" is not as good as "The King of Bath".

However, due to the good selection of the schedule, "Warm Hug" has a higher box office than "The King of Bath", with a total box office of 460 million on the first day of release plus the three days of the New Year's Day holiday.

The box office king of this year's New Year's Day schedule is undoubtedly "Send You a Little Red Flower", with a box office of 230 million on the first day of release, and then broke 200 million for three consecutive days, and a total box office of 890 million at the end of New Year's Day.

In terms of word of mouth, Douban has 8.4, Maoyan has 9.5, and Tao Piao Piao has 9.6. The Internet is full of praise for this movie.

[I have seen Han Yan's "Go Away, Tumor King", and "Send You a Little Red Flower" is said to be the second part of his "Life Trilogy".

In my opinion, this one is far more exciting than "Tumor King".

Both the plot and the actors' acting skills are very touching.

It is not surprising that Gu Wei has such acting skills. After all, he won the three best actor awards of the Golden Image, Hundred Flowers, and Golden Rooster this year.

But Liu Haocun, the fledgling "Mou Girl", was a little surprised by her performance.]

[It is not as good as "Dying to Survive", but it is also a rare excellent movie in the domestic entertainment industry! ]

[I was still laughing when I saw Ma Xiaoyuan taking Wei Yihang to adventure in the city to fulfill his wish. I couldn't hold back my tears when Ma Xiaoyuan died of illness later.

Cancer patients are so pitiful. I hope there is no pain in heaven.】

【From "Better Days" to "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" and now "Send You a Little Red Flower", we can see that Gu Wei is transforming.

However, unlike others, even if he shoots dramas that are more art films, the box office of the movies is still booming.

This also shows his super high box office appeal and top commercial value. 】

【Thank you Gu Wei for letting me see such an excellent movie. After "Dying to Survive", there are very few movies focusing on seriously ill patients.

Although he just won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, I want to say that Ma Xiaoyuan's role is completely worthy of a Best Actor trophy! 】

【Wow, it's so good and so tearful! My brother has been shooting this kind of realistic movies in the past two years. Although they are not as refreshing and intense as those commercial movies, they are really touching! 】

【I had just graduated from college when I watched "The Sword of the Assassin" in 2012. Now I am the husband of my wife and the father of two children.

I am not a die-hard fan of Gu Wei, but he has watched almost all of his movies.

After all, he has never let me down once in all these years!

"Send You a Little Red Flower" is undoubtedly a good movie. I hope that all the sick people in the world can get better, and I also hope that my children can grow up healthily without illness and disaster. 】

The double harvest of word-of-mouth and box office is the current status of "Send You a Little Red Flower".

A box office of 1 billion is a matter of course, and 1.5 billion is also in sight. As for whether it can exceed 2 billion, it depends on the subsequent trend.

Although the film industry suffered a great blow due to the epidemic in 2020, starting with "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" and "Eight Hundred" in the second half of the year, the film market has recovered rapidly, and there was even a short climax in the eleventh gear.

After the results of "Send You a Little Red Flower" came out, the total box office of the Chinese film market in 2020 officially exceeded 20 billion.

Compared with previous years, of course, there are some shortcomings, but it is already commendable.

The hot sales of "Send You a Little Red Flower" put a good end to the film market in 2020, and at the same time started 2021 very beautifully.
