Chapter 301 The Richest Man in the Entertainment Industry

In his previous life, Jia Nailiang in "The Legend of Ancient Swords" chose to "go on strike" because he asked for additional scenes, and when his request could not be met, he left the crew in anger, regardless of the progress of the subsequent filming.

On his social platform, he quickly cleared the news related to "Gu Jian Qi Tan" and changed his avatar back. He also said that he was extremely disappointed with the crew and could not bear it.

It is precisely because of these bad things that Jia Nailiang's resources in the industry were constantly downgraded, and in the end he almost had nothing to do, so he switched to live broadcasting to sell goods, and then he was repeatedly fired because of problems with the things he sold. rollover

"Jia Nailiang, when you were taking classes at Nortel, the teacher should have told you that you should respect the hard work of other staff members on the set. If you always have to add scenes like this, what should you do with Chen Xiao, the male protagonist? Screenwriter and producer It’s all up to you!”

"Teacher Gu, the request I made is reasonable. Look..." Jia Nailiang took out the script and tried to defend his behavior.

But Gu Zhongyu didn't bother to listen to his ramblings, and said to Yang Mi next to him: "Is this how you manage the crew if you don't deal with people who make trouble? As one of the investors, I am very doubtful about your decision-making ability, Boss Yang!"

Hearing Gu Zhongyu say that he was making trouble, Jia Nailiang became anxious and wanted to say something back, but Li Xiaolu from behind took his hand and signaled him to stop talking.

Wait, investors?

Gu Zhongyu is an investor in "Gu Jian Qi Tan"?

Jia Nailiang didn't see Gu Zhongyu's name in the cast list!

He didn't know that Gu Zhongyu was actually an investor in Jiaxing. This matter was relatively low-key. Even within Jiaxing, except for a few management members, no one knew that there was Gu Zhongyu as the boss behind the scenes.

Hearing Gu Zhongyu's words, Yang Mi felt emboldened, so he turned around and said to Jia Nailiang solemnly: "Teacher Jia Nailiang, if you feel that our script is unacceptable, please leave immediately, we will not Because your request alone affects the filming progress of the entire crew.”

"I am one of the investors, you can't ask me to leave!"

"All your investment will be returned to you, and for the time and energy you have put in on the crew these days, we will also settle it to you according to your remuneration!"

Hearing Yang Mi's ultimatum, Jia Nailiang wanted to say a few words, but when he saw Gu Zhongyu watching with cold eyes and the hint from his wife, he gritted his teeth and walked out of the door without looking back.

When Li Xiaolu passed by Gu Zhongyu, he greeted her awkwardly and followed in her husband's footsteps.

Seeing the two couples leaving, Gu Zhongyu turned around and asked in a low voice, Dudu, had everything just been recorded?

Chen Duling nodded and said that both mobile phones were on and the video and sound were recorded.

"I really want to thank you, Mr. Gu, otherwise I don't know how today would have ended."

Chen Xiao is still very grateful to Gu Zhongyu. Not only did he point out the way and signed a contract with Liu Yufei's studio, but he also recommended him to play the male lead in "Gu Jian Qi Tan". Unfortunately, he is stupid and doesn't know what nice things to say. Express.

Seeing that the two of them still had something to talk about, everyone left first. Gu Zhongyu sharply noticed Reba, who was not yet famous in the crowd at this time.

Reba is now at the peak of her appearance, and she is very eye-catching even in a crew full of beauties. But this dress is too eye-catching, and it makes her face look a bit blind!

After everyone left, Da Mi Mi originally wanted to complain first, but when he saw the tired look on Gu Zhongyu's face, especially the dark circles at the corners of his eyes after taking off his sunglasses, he couldn't help but asked with some distress: "I've been tired lately. It’s broken!”

"No, it's mainly a matter of time difference."

Gu Zhongyu didn't open his eyes at all and replied smoothly.

There is another reason that Gu Zhongyu selectively concealed, because before leaving, Shalizi and Alexandra teamed up to squeeze him out for another day. The two ocean horses were too strong in this regard, and he really couldn't bear it. !

"Then I'll find a room for you to rest for a while. The assistant doesn't need to follow you, just leave it to me."

Yang Mi looked at Chen Duling, who was never leaving, and knew that this girl should be Gu Zhongyu's new assistant. The assistants this guy found were getting more and more beautiful, and his predecessor's Bai Lu was not so good-looking!

"oh!"

Chen Duling knew about the relationship between Yang Mi and Gu Zhongyu, so she stayed here obediently. She didn't want to follow him, otherwise she would have to watch scenes inappropriate for children.

Da Mi Mi brought Gu Zhongyu to her residence. Because "Gu Jian Qi Tan" was expected to be filmed for a long time, she did not choose to stay in a hotel, but rented a house nearby.

Arriving at Yang Mi's home, Gu Zhongyu didn't even take off his clothes. He collapsed on the sofa and fell asleep...

If it weren't for the loud shouts from the big power, he would probably have slept until dark.

"You need to get rid of the jet lag! So, you can't sleep now!" He opened his eyes with difficulty and Da Mi Mi told him seriously.

"Please let me go and let me get some sleep!"

"At least take a shower, change your clothes and go to the boat to sleep?!"

"No, no, it's just fine here. It doesn't smell like your stinky feet...don't hit me! I was wrong!"

As he spoke, Gu Zhongyu fell into deep sleep again.

When I woke up, it was completely dark.

Gu Zhongyu was a little confused as to why he slept on the bed? And he took off his clothes.

I guess it was the help of Da Mi Mi. He was quite strong and could still drag him. It was good to have a woman by his side to take care of him!

Looking at the time, it was around seven in the evening. Gu Zhongyu got up, but he didn't see Yang Mi.

"Yang Da Mi! Foxy Mi!"

After calling for a long time in the whole house, there was no response. Instead, a bored kitten in the living room was woken up. This was also Dun Dun's cub. Yang Mi said that if other women had it, she had to have it too, so she snatched the last kitten from Gu Zhongyu.

Unexpectedly, she kept it with her when filming. Dun Dun's children seemed to have inherited their father's fearless character. When they saw Gu Zhongyu, they took the initiative to come over and meow, wanting to ask for something to eat.

"Where's your mother?"

As soon as he finished saying this, Gu Zhongyu laughed. Even if it could answer, he couldn't understand it!

Forget it, I won't ask you anymore!

He opened the refrigerator, took out some ingredients, and made a few dishes. He was swallowing with difficulty when the gate of the yard was pushed open from the outside. Da Mi Mi, wearing a baseball uniform T-shirt, walked in with two lunch boxes and a large bag of daily necessities.

Maybe the food was too heavy, dragging the headlights of the car in front of him and shaking, which was a bit dazzling!

Gu Zhongyu hurriedly stood up to greet him, or to be more precise, to greet the lunch box in Da Mi Mi's hand.

"Did you cook by yourself?"

Yang Mi took Gu Zhongyu's chopsticks with a little curiosity and took a bite of the food: "Your cooking skills have regressed, and it's not as delicious as before!"

Gu Zhongyu was busy opening the lunch box and replied directly: "I don't rely on cooking to make a living, give me the chopsticks, there are not many Chinese restaurants in Toronto, Canada is the same as the United States, there is nothing delicious!"

Da Mi Mi rolled her eyes at him, then ran to the kitchen and took out a set of tableware. The two of them didn't say anything and ate a lot. The whole room was filled with the aroma of food and the sound of the kitten meowing.

"Magazines? Do you still like to read these things now?"

After eating almost everything, Gu Zhongyu slowed down his food intake and picked up a few magazines brought back by Da Mi Mi to see what was in them. These days, magazines are already one less and one less.

Newspapers, magazines, and other traditional paper media have all started to decline in the past two years with the rise of smartphones. Dozens of magazines and newspaper companies have closed down every year, and sales have also been falling. Newsstands, which were once common small shops on the streets, are almost closed.

"When I was buying stewed food, I happened to see a stall next to me. It was about your news, so I bought some."

"About me?"

Gu Zhongyu hurriedly looked at it carefully. It was a magazine called "Bazaar Entertainment". Just by listening to the name, you can tell that it is the masterpiece of Su Mang's elder sister. This woman has now successively published special issues in different fields such as "Fashion Health" and "Bazaar Men", and she is determined to become the "female devil" in the domestic entertainment industry!

"Counting the most profitable man in the entertainment industry, Gu Zhongyu."

Then there was a long description, from Zongheng Company to his investment, the box office revenue of each movie, almost counting Gu Zhongyu's net worth clearly, except for some of his overseas income.

Finally, it was concluded that Gu Zhongyu's total net worth was about 20 billion.

"Tsk, I haven't calculated these myself. I have to thank Su Mang for helping me do this inventory!"

Although Zongheng Entertainment has not yet been listed, according to industry estimates (in the third quarter of 2013, Huayi Brothers' market value exceeded 40 billion yuan), its market value after listing should not be less than 20 billion. Although market value is not equal to wealth, the people who counted it think that even the unlisted Zongheng should be worth about 10 billion.

There are also Gu Zhongyu's properties across the country. I don't know which big shot found it, but this person actually listed it almost accurately.

Seven sets in Yanjing, four of which are located near Tsinghua University and Peking University, four sets in Shanghai, four sets in Hangzhou, two sets in Chengdu, one set in Hengdian... Even the house in Xiong'an that Gu Zhongyu bought was found.

The author also ridiculed Gu Zhongyu's idea of ​​buying a house for investment. Houses in places like Yanjing and Shanghai are definitely worthless, but Gu Zhongyu actually bought five houses in a remote place like Xiong'an. It is very likely that he was fooled by someone.

There are also some shares of other companies that Gu Zhongyu owns, such as Alibaba, Penguin, Sina, etc. Although the shares are small, some are only a few tenths of a percent, but combined with the value of these companies, it is still a considerable fortune.

Adding up the pieces, at least he is worth nearly 20 billion.

"Is it true or false? Are you so rich now?"

Da Mi Mi snatched the magazine from Shen Gu Zhongyu's hand and read it herself. She thought that this guy was just an ordinary actor except for his good family background. I didn't expect that his wealth has expanded to this extent now.

"It's about the same. These are the ones in China."

In fact, this is far more than that. The technology company Ming An Jiao Feng was not noticed, and basically no one in the industry knew that Gu Zhongyu was working on a short video APP, so this company was not counted.

There is also Banana Entertainment, which was jointly established with Wang Sicong. Many variety shows such as "Running Brothers" are already being created, and "Strange Talk" successfully aired its first episode, and the response was quite good.

It's just that Gu Zhongyu was hiding behind the scenes, and Su Mang obviously didn't notice it.

Of course, it's also possible that he found out, but Su Mang didn't write it all down. After all, Gu Zhongyu's intention was obviously to hide these assets. If she revealed them all, wouldn't it be like offending him!

"You have more abroad?"

"It's not much. I'm cooperating with Lionsgate Pictures. In order to reassure everyone, I bought some of their shares, probably only a dozen percent."

In fact, Gu Zhongyu also bought shares in Tesla, Twitter and Apple in his early years, but he didn't hold much. After all, no matter how hard a Chinese person works, he can't really become a major shareholder of these companies. He just prepares for the day when funds are available. When the flow is tight or the market value reaches a high point, all of them are sold for cash.

"You are so rich, why don't you just follow me and eat roast chicken! How on earth do you make money so well?"

Yang Mi looked at it for a while, put down the magazine in his hand, looked at Gu Zhongyu and asked.

She was so jealous of being a money addict. If she had known better, she would have invested with Gu Zhongyu. I heard that Liu Shishi was now making a lot of money because of investing with Gu Zhongyu, and even his interest in acting became less and less.

"Haha, this thing relies on your brain!"

Gu Zhongyu smiled and pointed at his brain, explaining Yang Mi's doubts.

Yang Mi curled her lips, not taking it seriously, and said: "There is another book here. It is praising you again, saying that you are a lucky star in the entertainment industry. No matter which director or actor you work with, you can bring them to the peak of their career!"

Indeed, Guo Fan is a new director, and he collaborated with Gu Zhongyu on "Ball Lightning," which not only grossed 1 billion in box office, but also won the Jury Prize at Cannes; Chen Sicheng, a TV drama director, went to the United States to film "The Invisible Guest" with Gu Zhongyu. Although it has not been released yet, it has already won an award in Toronto. The last Chinese-language film to win a Toronto award before this was "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"

After Yang Mi starred as the heroine in "Ball Lightning", she also starred in the controversial "Tiny Times" which earned hundreds of millions at the box office; Liu Yufei even lost her reputation as a box office poison and broke the domestic romantic comedy with "Like You" box office record, and now he has his own company.

"Partners in China" is also highly praised. It has been confirmed to be shortlisted for the three major domestic film festivals and the Golden Horse Award. It is also a big hit. Film adaptations of celebrity biographies are very popular in various countries. Gu Zhongyu won the best actor this time The possibility is also very high.

The entertainment industry is very superstitious. Celebrities all like to hang out with red-topped and white-haired people. Nowadays, Gu Zhongyu is regarded as super popular among people in the industry. Everyone wants to cooperate with him, and even some veteran directors can't sit still. .

If it weren't for the fact that Gu Zhongyu has a strong desire for control, the director can only use him as a tool. Even a great director like Lao Mouzi would like to find an opportunity to work with him. After all, film awards such as Cannes and Toronto It has always been their dream.

Of course, ordinary actors wouldn't think so much. During this time, many people on Gu Zhongyu's WeChat were "concerned" about him and wanted to know what he was doing. Some actresses even sent some ambiguous words teasingly to he.

Use this to test cadres?

No sincerity at all!

Unless someone posts photos directly, Gu Zhongyu chooses to ignore them...
