Huayu started as a lecturer at Beijing Film Academy

It turned out that during the filming process, Wu Jin's father-in-law and mother-in-law often came to visit the set. Because his father-in-law was a soldier before, and they were short of extras during this period, Wu Jin gave the role to his father-in-law and let him play a free extra.

So during this period, the relationship between Wu Jin and his father-in-law was getting better and better, just like father and son.

Both of them are courageous people. Xie Nan's father is a soldier, and Wu Jin has filmed many military dramas and experienced the army. They have similar interests, so when he was drunk, Wu Jin often put his arm around his father-in-law's shoulders and called him big brother.

"Hello, hello, Mr. Gu, I often watch your dramas."

Wu Jin's father-in-law didn't look serious. He was no different from a middle-aged uncle who could be met at a barbecue stall. He greeted Gu Zhongyu enthusiastically.

Gu Zhongyu naturally stood up to return the greeting. Although Xie Nan's father was careless, he was a retired cadre in the army and his rank was not low. Wu Jin also received a lot of help from Xie Nan's family in his career.

Xie Nan has a carefree and cheerful personality, which is also because she was born into a family of generals. Not only did her father serve in the army, but her mother also came from a military family. Her family situation is similar to Gu Zhongyu, but the level is not as high.

Nowadays, most of the hosts who can make it in the limelight have some connections in their families, not to mention that there are more bigwigs hidden behind the scenes in the TV station that no one knows about.

Zhang Xuefeng has said that if you don’t have something at home, don’t learn to work as a host and director, because these circles are all backyards for others.

“How long will you shoot in Jinling?”

“It’s too early! We just started filming not long ago, and we have to stay in Jinling for three or four months, and then go to Yunnan to complete the rest of the scenes.”

In fact, in the original version of “Wolf Warrior”, due to limited investment, the crew did not go abroad or shoot at the border, and it was always in Jinling. The shots of plants and trees in the film can also show that the scenery is somewhat biased to the north.

With Gu Zhongyu's funding this time, we naturally have to strive for excellence. Although we didn't go to Southeast Asia for the big shoot, we still chose Yunnan, which is similar to the location. The production director had already chosen the location when the crew was preparing. The location is a tropical rainforest in Xishuangbanna. The scenery is similar to the original "Wolf Warrior", with mountains, water and jungles, but the different plants give people a different feeling, which is very Southeast Asian.

"Hey, maybe when I start shooting my new movie, we can meet in Yunnan!"

"Teacher Gu is also going to shoot a new movie? Or will he go to Yunnan to shoot?" Wu Jin became interested in this, "Is it a drug-related crime or literary and artistic love movie?"

Because of the special geographical environment and beautiful natural environment of Yunnan, basically the movies shot in Yunnan are either about border crimes like "Operation Mekong", "Jade Guanyin" and "Border Storm", or humanistic drama movies like "A Thousand Miles Alone" and "Pretend to be a Couple".

Yunnan was originally suitable for filming war films with the background of the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, such as "The Garland under the Mountain", but due to the current change in the direction of diplomacy, this subject matter has been greatly restricted. In recent years, the only film involving the Vietnam War is "Youth" by Feng Kuzi, but that is just a weird and weird film, not a war film at all.

The impact of changes in the world situation on filming is still quite large, just like the film about the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. Since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States in 1979, this subject matter has not been filmed much in order to maintain relations between the two countries.

In 2000, the war drama "Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea" was led by Yang Weiguang, the former director of the Central Bank, and took three years, cost more than 30 million yuan, and had more than 100,000 actors. When the Central Bank decided to shoot this drama, the relevant departments had rejected this idea and emphasized that it should be filmed carefully.

Unfortunately, in 2001, due to the occurrence of the 9/11 incident, out of consideration for Sino-US relations, the schedule of "Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea" was once again changed and postponed by the relevant departments.

Until now, the teacher Gu Yue, who played the leading role of the teacher, has passed away, and this drama has been hidden. I don’t know if it will ever see the light of day again.

However, in recent years, due to changes in external conditions, the relevant control has tended to be relaxed. Gu Zhongyu had previously asked the staff of the review department whether he could make a movie about the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. In the past, they directly said no, but now they are uncertain.

It is estimated that we have to wait until 2016, when the trade war starts, before this type of subject matter can be completely released.

"Neither, it's a road comedy. How about it? Do you want to make a cameo for me?"

"Another comedy? Deng Chao is also making a comedy now, and asked me and Xie Nan to make a cameo. Why do you always like to invite me, an action actor, to make a cameo in your comedy?"

Wu Jin has acted or made a cameo in a bunch of comedy films such as "The Treasure Box of Yue Guang", "Robot Man" and "Happy Magic" over the years, but he feels that he does not have any comedic color. Obviously, I am so serious, why do you always look for me?

"Isn't it because you are so famous, Jing, you will become a big name in the film industry sooner or later, so I want to take advantage of your fame in advance?"

"Come on, forget it. I am playing supporting roles and villains now, and they still find fault with me!" Wu Jin shook his head, not taking it seriously, thinking that Gu Zhongyu was joking.

At this time, Wu Jin really gave people the impression of being an outdated action star. When he was in Hong Kong before, he hardly played any decent roles. He either played assistants or played some gangster villains, none of which he liked.

He was so angry that he decided to become a director and make the action movies he wanted.

Unfortunately, the movie "Spike", which he directed and starred in with an investment of 4 million, only had a box office of 2.31 million in Hong Kong and 4.23 million in the mainland. It was a complete mess. It was a big blow to him, and he was silent for a long time.

Who would have thought that in a few years he would become the number one box-office star in domestic movies!

"But..." Wu Jin thought of something and said with a mischievous smile, "My reputation doesn't care about your reputation. I'm already here. Do I have to make a guest appearance?"

Why did I meet someone who wanted to take advantage of me again?

"I just finished my guest appearance for Deng Chao a few days ago, and now you want me to work for you for free?"

Wu Jin slapped the table: "How can this be free work? Mr. Gu, this is a play that we both invest in together, right? If you help me, you are helping yourself. Isn't that right?"

The cast members and Wu Jin's drinking buddies immediately started heckling.

"Yes, yes, Teacher Gu will keep us here for two more days~"

"There are so many big toys here. Help us in filming, and we can also teach you how to fight tanks and masturbate~"

Gu Zhongyu thought to himself: Do I still need your teaching on how to masturbate?

Gu Zhongyu had no choice but to agree to make a cameo. Wu Jin was very happy when he agreed. He finally had a big name to use as a gimmick for his movie. He and Wan Qian alone were not enough to guarantee the box office.

Gu Zhongyu is different. Every movie he has starred in in the past two years has been a hit. Some people have already given him the title of the number one niche actor in Chinese movies. Even if it is just a guest appearance, the meaning is different.

You have to find a way to trick him into taking more photos!

"Let's agree first! I will only be a guest star for three days at most. Once the three days are up, I will leave immediately!" Looking at Wu Jin, whose eyes kept rolling, Gu Zhongyu had already guessed his little plan.

Hearing this, Wu Jin's heart tightened. Damn it, have you been seen through?

In all likelihood, he was just like Guo Fan when he made "The Wandering Earth", he was holding back his misfortune!

At the beginning, Guo Fan pulled Wu Jin and said: Brother, help us make a guest appearance for three days, show your face, and support the movie!

As a result, after joining the crew, Guo Fan continued to add scenes to Wu Jin. The more filming he did, the more he filmed. He talked to Wu Jin every day and continued to show off the shining points of the Wandering Earth script.

So Wu Jin stayed longer and longer, staying for a full 31 days, changing from a guest role to a supporting role, and a supporting role to the protagonist, and he also invested 60 million...

As for the money, Gu Zhongyu doesn't care. He has already given it to Wu Jin anyway. He can add more, but people can't get involved. It's okay to want my money, but you can't worry about my body too!

Seeing Gu Zhongyu being praised by all the stars on the set, Chen Duling, who was drinking juice, felt a little envious in his heart. He wondered if he would be so popular wherever he went if he acted in the future.

Wan Qian stared blankly at Gu Zhongyu, who was changing glasses with everyone, and then glanced at Chen Duling, feeling thoughtful in her heart.

"Sister Wan, what are you thinking about?" Gan Lu, who plays one of her female staff officers, asked.

The only actresses who can be named on the cast list of "Wolf Warriors" are Wan Qian, the two actresses who played Long Xiaoyun's counselor, Ganlu and Guo Yan, both of whom have starred in "Special Forces: Fire Phoenix" and are famous So low that it can be ignored.

"Nothing. By the way, how many years have you two been in the industry?"

"I've been there for five years." Ganlu majored in Chinese drama and had a bachelor's degree in directing. Unfortunately, no one asked her to be a director after graduation, so she had no choice but to become an actor.

"I'm only a freshman. It's a pity that Teacher Gu was no longer at Nortel when I entered school last year. Otherwise, I could still be his student!" Guo Yan is the youngest at 21. She was admitted to Nortel last year because of her endorsement of the online game "Time Travel". "The Wire", has gained some fame on the Internet with the classic female warrior image of "Fox Hunter".

Although she is from the Nortel Department, she was not taught by Gu Zhongyu, so it cannot be called a real teacher-student relationship. Guo Yan just went up to say hello to Gu Zhongyu, but no one knew who she was.

She was quite envious of seniors such as Nazha and Zhu Yilong. Just because they were Gu Zhongyu's students, the treatment was obviously different. After joining Zongheng, she didn't have to worry about filming at all.

Wan Qian nodded thoughtfully and recalled: "I started debuting in 2002 and worked hard for almost ten years. It was only after I met Mr. Gu that I started to get the female number one position. You have to work hard. Don’t waste your time like me and reach the age of 30 before you have a chance to shine.”

When Guo Yan heard this, she patted her chest and said, "Well! I will definitely work hard to hone my acting skills and strive to be as close to Sister Wan's level as possible!"

"What's the use of being close to me? Being in our circle requires more than just acting skills or good looks. Aren't there so many good-looking people who are all buried!"

"Sister Wan, if you have anything to advise us, just tell us. We will definitely learn from it with an open mind." The older Ganlu heard the implication. She didn't think Wan Qian was complaining for nothing, but she seemed to mean something.

"When the opportunity comes, you must know how to seize it!" Wan Qian said this, and then looked at the mixed-eyed people around her, "I will talk to you in detail when I go back after dinner."

…

After finishing the meal, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. They each went back to the hotel. Gu Zhongyu lived next door to Wu Jinwanqian and other leading actors.

The movie "Wolf Warrior" itself is a men's drama. It can be said that there are very few female actors. There are only three named ones including Wan Qian.

Because there are few actresses, the treatment is pretty good. According to their status, Guo Yan and Gan Lu should have stayed in small standard rooms, but now they live in a luxurious suite connected to Wan Qian.

Afraid of bad influence, Gu Zhongyu couldn't knock on Wan Qian's door, so he could only wait and wait.

"are you asleep?"

After a long time after taking a shower, Gu Zhongyu heard a knock on the door, and then opened the door and saw Wan Qian standing at the door, wearing a military uniform, exactly like Long Xiaoyun's in the movie. This was amazing. It’s a huge boost to his XP!

"How can I think about sleeping if you don't come?"

Gu Zhongyu caught Wan Qian in, closed the door, kissed her passionately, and then couldn't wait to get to the point.

"Wait a minute..." Wan Qian suddenly broke away from Gu Zhongyu's affectionate behavior, grabbed his face, and panted, "We haven't seen each other for so long. Is this what you are thinking about?"

if not?

"Let's chat first."

After saying that, Wan Qian sat on the sofa. Gu Zhongyu saw that the president wanted to have some pre-event romance, so he had to pour her a glass of water, and the two of them sat on the sofa and chatted.

"Didn't you write this movie? Actually, I have a question I want to ask you." After chatting about some recent life events, Wan Qian raised a question about the movie.

"what is the problem?"

"The main theme of this drama is the military career, and it is all about military affairs. Why is there not even a bit of real life in it?"

Gu Zhongyu explained to her: "Because this is a movie, not a TV series. If you want to make the plot attractive, the first thing you have to do is to have a compact plot. And since this drama is about military life, why should it be integrated into reality? What about ordinary life in society?”

"I think in modern society, the most important thing for every commercial movie is to have some element of love in it. In this way, it will be more attractive to watch."

Gu Zhongyu was a little speechless, otherwise he would ask why the male and female protagonists in domestic dramas are always in love! These actors themselves feel this way. Without a love scene like an idol drama, it seems that it is not close to life and tasteless.
