China Entertainment's whatever you want

Chapter 861 I can help you

After more than 10 years of debut, Gu Wei's wealth has become extremely huge.

The value of the fixed assets under his name alone is over ten figures.

Including the recently purchased private island in New Zealand, the wine estate in France, the luxury mansion in Los Angeles and the hot spring villa in Japan, as well as high-end properties in major cities in other countries around the world.

The number of properties he owns in China is more than the total number of properties he owns abroad, and most of them are concentrated in big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai.

There is a special company in his personal team to help him manage the properties under his name.

Although he has many houses, Gu Wei is alone after all, and he spends a long time of the year living in hotels, so he rarely stays in most of the properties.

In Beijing, this large flat in Embassy No. 1 Courtyard is the residence where he has lived for a long time because it is close to his company.

This was not Liu Yifei's first time here, and the so-called jacuzzi experience was of course a joke from Gu Wei.

However, when she came out of the bathroom more than an hour later, she felt refreshed all over, as if she had just experienced a highly skilled massage.

From the hair to the toes, every muscle in the body was completely relaxed, her usually fair skin turned slightly red, and her pretty face was covered with a blush.

Lying on the bed, eyes slightly narrowed, the whole person exudes a state of contentment and laziness.

“How long will it take to shoot John Wick 4?”

“About two months.”

“Is it filmed in North America?”

“Filming was done all over the world, mainly in Berlin, Paris, New York, Japan and other places.”

In the quiet night, the two of them snuggled up to each other on the big bed in the bedroom.

"[Where the Wind Runs] will start filming at the end of March, just in time for you to come back from filming the movie."

"I will probably join the crew later, so the crew can start filming the scenes before Xu Hongdou comes to Yunnan."

Liu Yifei lay sideways, with one of her beautiful round, white legs resting on one of Gu Wei's legs, her head resting on his arm, her chubby little hands resting on his chest.

"I will be busy for the next two months."

Gu Wei grabbed her hand on him and asked, "Why, do you have other work during the New Year holidays?"

"I don't have a job, but I'm going to shoot [Windy] soon. I have to lose weight, otherwise I'll look fat on camera with my current body shape!"

Gu Wei lowered his head slightly and said with a smile: "I thought you were very satisfied with your figure. I didn't expect that Xixi, who has always been confident, would also have body anxiety."

As he said this, he slightly turned sideways, placed his big hands on the other's waist, and gently grabbed the flesh there.

"Actually, you have a pretty good figure now, plump and soft, and your body feels great!"

Liu Yifei patted him on the chest in annoyance: "You big-headed ghost!

Fat is fat, no need to beat around the bush.

To be honest, if I wasn’t filming, I wouldn’t want to lose weight deliberately.

But when I’m on camera, I have to show my best side to the audience. I’m an actor!”

"Wow, so professional!" Gu Wei praised with a smile.

He actually understands Liu Yifei very well.

After knowing each other for ten years, Gu Wei has already understood the other person's personality and temper very thoroughly.

Just as she said, in Liu Yifei's mind, she is a professional actor, not a star.

For her, filming is both work and a hobby. She has little interest in doing anything else.

Because she is not interested, she rarely appears on variety shows.

When I’m not filming or promoting, I prefer to enjoy my own life. While reducing my exposure, I don’t pay too much attention to my body management.

If she needs to attend any endorsement event at this time, everyone will find that she has gained a lot of weight in front of the camera.

Once she actually gets the role, she will devote herself to it wholeheartedly, and will do anything to lose weight and reshape her body for the role, and become the beautiful Liu Yifei again.

"In fact, if I wasn't out filming, I could definitely help you lose weight, and you wouldn't have to exercise too hard!"

Gu Wei looked down at the beauty in his arms and said with a smile.

"Can you help me?" Liu Yifei was a little surprised.

“How can I help you? Work out with me?

Even if you don't go out to film, there should be a lot of things to do in the company. How can you find time for that?"

“No need for daytime, night time will do.”

"night?
You mean going for a night run with me?"

Gu Wei's face was full of smiles, and his big hand on the other's waist moved dishonestly.

"You don't have to run at night. Don't you think you've burned a lot of calories by being with me today?"

At this point Liu Yifei finally reacted and rolled her eyes speechlessly.

"Can you think of something normal?"

"It's the middle of the night, lying in bed with you, if I were thinking normally, that would be the biggest abnormality!"

As he said that, Gu Wei gently flipped over and pressed Liu Yifei under him.

"It's been such a long time, have you rested well?"

Feeling the heat radiating from Gu Wei, Liu Yifei's breathing became a little rapid.

"what?"

"Hurry up and help you consume the energy in your body!"

The next day, Liu Yifei, who was sleeping soundly on the big bed, slowly woke up until the sun was high in the sky.

After opening my eyes, I reached out and took the phone from the bedside. I looked at the time and it was almost noon.

“I slept so well!”

He sat up and stretched, then got out of bed, put on his slippers, opened the closet on the side of the bedroom as if he knew the way, and took out a set of well-fitting pajamas and put them on.

After washing up, I took out milk and bread from the refrigerator, heated them up, and fried an egg for breakfast.

At the dining table, she was eating while looking at her phone and clicked on the voice message her mother had just sent.

"Will you be back for dinner?"

Liu Yifei thought for a moment and pressed the talk button: "Go back, we'll be home soon."

After eating, I tidied up briefly, changed into my own clothes, and looked at myself in the dressing mirror.

In the mirror, Liu Yifei, who was not wearing any makeup, had fair skin with a rosy glow, and her eyes were bright and clear, and extremely lively.

The whole person exudes a vigorous and positive spirit.

"I really seem to be looking better. It was like this before. Is it my illusion or is it because of him?"

Thinking of the strenuous exercise that consumed her energy last night and what Gu Wei said, Liu Yifei murmured to herself: "If it's really because of Gu Wei, then his suggestion to help her lose weight is reasonable."

Thinking of this, she shook her head again and immediately overturned her own idea.

"How is it possible? There is no such a good thing. He is just talking nonsense.

The reason why you look energetic is simply because you sleep well and rest well."

Thinking of this, she found her initial thoughts a little funny, shook her head and prepared to go out.

【Defend the world of Ming Dynasty】.

Gu Wei left home early in the morning, left a note for Liu Yifei and came to the company. He was quite busy these days before leaving.

There is only half a month left before the Spring Festival. This is the critical promotion period for "Yang Jian: The Legend of the Condor Heroes". All the company's publicity and promotion resources are invested in this movie.

As a boss, Gu Wei also keeps a close eye on the current online public opinion about movies.

Fortunately, because of "Nezha", many viewers have high expectations for this animated film with the same world view.

During the day, Wen Muye's [Miracle·Stupid Kid] was completely completed in the later stage.

Gu Wei took some senior executives to watch the finished film. After congratulating Wen Muye, he invited him, Cui Rui and several other directors of the company to have a drink and dinner together in the evening.

"When does the company plan to release "Miracle"? " At the dinner table, Wen Mu also became concerned about the movie's release.

“It is tentatively scheduled for May Day.

After the Spring Festival and before the summer vacation, the May Day period should be the best time period.

A five-day holiday is enough for [Miracle] to reap the box office revenue.” Gu Wei said after thinking for a while.

"I don't have high expectations for the box office of this drama. It's fine as long as it can make back the investment, but I can't talk about reaping the benefits of the box office."

Wen Mu also waved his hand.

He is not being modest. If Gu Wei had agreed to star in "Miracle" at the beginning, Wen Mu would have dared to claim a box office of 10 billion or 20 billion, but the current leading actor is Peng Yuchang from the company.

Although Wen Mu thought Peng Peng’s acting was good, with a youthful feel, and he brought the male lead Jing Hao in “Miracle·Stupid Kid” to life, he did not have much confidence in his box office appeal.

Based on his confidence in the quality of his film, he feels that a box office revenue of over 5 million would be a huge success.

"Brother Wen is too modest!" Cui Rui on the side said with a smile.

"I'm not being modest, I'm being realistic. This movie itself is not a commercial film, and there's no particularly charismatic star in the lead role, so I don't think the box office will be too high."

Gu Wei nodded and said nothing more.

He actually understood Wen Muye's thoughts very well and agreed with him.

The content of "Miracle·Stupid Kid" has not changed, but Peng Peng's fame is definitely not as good as the four characters in the original version, and the May Day period is not as good as the Spring Festival period, so it is inevitable that the box office will not be as good as the original time and space.

However, he doesn't think the final result will be too different. The original version had a box office of over 1 billion. He thinks that even if it doesn't reach 1 billion, it can at least reach 700 to 800 million.

After all, according to Gu Wei's consistent thinking, the movie itself is the fundamental factor that determines the box office performance.

"Director Cui, how are your preparations for [The Accidental Murderer 2] going?" After talking with Director Wen, Gu Wei turned to Cui Rui.

“The filming team has been finalized and is currently scouting for filming locations.

Mr. Gu, you also know that the story of "The Accidental Murderer 2" also takes place in Thailand.

It is still not very convenient to go abroad to film now, so I communicated with Mr. Zhao and prepared to choose a suitable place in China.

We have already inspected some Thai-style streets in some cities and plan to make some modifications to the locations for filming after selecting them.”

Gu Wei nodded and said, "Yes, that's a good idea. It's OK for an individual to go abroad now, but it's really not very convenient for a crew of hundreds of people to go abroad for filming.

Director Rao's film "The Journey Home" was about the evacuation of overseas Chinese, and the location was built in Ningxia, China to replicate the African environment.

When do you expect [Manslaughter 2] to start filming? "

Cui Rui thought for a while and said: "After the Chinese New Year, it should be around March.

One month is enough time for site selection and renovation.”

After saying that, he looked at Wen Muye and said, "Brother Wen, can you continue to come over and be the producer for [Manslaughter 2] this time? I will feel more at ease when you are around."

Wen Mu also looked embarrassed by Cui Rui's request.

Gu Wei smiled and helped him out: "Don't embarrass your brother Wen. He complained to me last month that he was too tired from filming one movie after another in recent years, and wanted to take a break after finishing "Miracle"."

Cui Rui looked at Gu Wei and then at Wen Mu.

“I’m sorry, Brother Wen, I didn’t know you wanted to rest.

When we were filming [Love in the City 2], you were the producer and helped me steer the crew. When we took on [The Accidental Murderer 2], I thought we could still do the same thing as before."

"It's okay, I just felt that I was a bit too busy before, so I wanted to take a break for a while to adjust my state.

In fact, you are now a mature director. When I was chatting with Mr. Gu a few days ago, I said that with your level, there would be absolutely no problem in filming "The Accidental Murderer 2".

When you are arranging, you can refer to the style of my first part.

The original work of this script, [The End of the World], is a traditional three-act play, and the narrative structure is a bit rigid. You can add some suspense to the non-linear narrative track.

Wen Mu first gave Cui Rui affirmation, and then talked to him about the filming of "The Accidental Murderer 2" and gave him a lot of useful suggestions.

The two discussed for a while, and Cui Rui felt that he had gained a lot.

He smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Wen, I feel that there is still a big gap between my shooting level and yours. I am really afraid that if I can't shoot the second part well, it will ruin the reputation of the "Manslaughter" series."

Wen Mu also looked at Cui Rui and hesitated.

"How about this, I can continue to be your producer, but I won't interfere as much as I did when we were filming The Good Wife 2. You will have the final say on what to shoot and how to shoot. If you are unsure about something, just ask me.

This way I don’t have much to do, and it’s no different from just resting at home, I can just treat it as traveling to a different place.”

Cui Rui looked happy: "Thank you for your hard work, Brother Wen. With you here, I feel more confident even if I don't do anything!"

Gu Wei smiled and said, "That's right.

Moreover, there is still more than a month from now until the start of filming of "Mischievous 2", which is enough time for you to spend a comfortable New Year at home.

By the way, I have something to show you today."

After saying that, he took out a movie script from his bag and handed it to Wen Muye.

“Boss Gu, I’ve said before that I won’t take on any new roles in the next six months, and you don’t need to show me any scripts.

And I have to join the crew to supervise Xiao Cui."

Wen Mu said the same thing but still took the script.

“I’m not asking you to shoot it now, this is an action movie I wrote for myself.

The earliest it can be turned on will be after June or July. I'll show it to you first.

If you are interested, take a good rest in the next six months, and we can start filming this movie together in the second half of the year."

The film that Gu Wei gave Wen Muye was "Extreme Rescue", for which he had written the outline before, which was the story of rescuing his sister who was kidnapped in northern Myanmar.

When Wen Mu heard that it was Gu Wei’s own movie, he immediately became interested.

The boss is starring in an action movie, who knows, it might be another "Wolf Warrior 2".

He opened the script and glanced at a few pages: "Okay, I'll go back and take a good look at it.

There will definitely be no problem if you take pictures.

Since I’m not in a hurry, I’ll start preparing for this drama after Cui Rui’s “Manslaughter 2” is finished.

Gu Wei smiled and saw Cui Rui's envious face, patted his shoulder and said, "I have a movie specially prepared for you.

But the script hasn't been written yet.

I’ll show it to you after you finish filming [The Accidental Murderer 2]

"Boss, are you also starring in this?"

Cui Rui has not worked with his boss since joining the company.

Gu Wei smiled and nodded: "Yes, I plan to act it myself!"

The pie he painted for Cui Rui was exactly the "Her Disappearance" for which he asked the screenwriter department to write the script a few days ago.
