Chapter 265: Powerful Bribery

Chapter 265: Powerful Bribery
After the big revenge a few years ago was avenged, Gu Zhongyu felt that his thoughts were clear. In fact, Wang Xiaorong's appearance could only be said to be passable. If it weren't for her identity as Wang Zhonglei's wife, Gu Zhongyu wouldn't even be interested in taking a second look.

But now that he has mastered it, he can't really let it go. Gu Zhongyu has decided that in the future, whenever Xiao Wang always makes him feel unhappy, he will go to Wang Xiaorong to make her happy, hehehe!
It's mid-April, which is supposed to be the off-season for movie releases, but this time it's different. Two crouching stars appeared at once, namely "Little Times" and "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains"

"Little Times" is an adaptation of the classic novel IP. It stars the most popular Xiao Hua Da Mi Mi in the past two years, a group of handsome men and beautiful women, and is blessed by Guo Xiaosi's many female book fans.

"Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" is a fashion action film starring the evergreen music star Liu Dehua, otaku goddess Lin Zhilin, Zhang Jingchu, and Tong Dawei. It has a high investment and huge publicity.

By chance, these two movies unexpectedly happened to be released together. The audiences who went to the cinema this month are in luck!
Relatively speaking, "Tiny Times" has received more attention, mainly because of young people's preference. In addition, Yang Mi has gradually gained the title of the mainland's most box office actress.

I don’t know since when, celebrities, especially those who have not been recognized by trophies, began to compete for something particularly illusory - box office appeal.

It seems that with the so-called box office appeal, even without acting skills, they are still first-line stars!
In the eyes of ordinary netizens, the algorithm for box office appeal is very simple. As long as he appears in a movie, the box office results of that movie will be attributed to him.

So, everyone figured it out clearly: Wow!It turns out that Huang Bo is my country's first actor with a box office of 100 billion in the new century. His box office appeal is so powerful!

Is this really the case?

If we simply add up how many box-office hits an actor has in how many movies he has appeared in, is he said to have high box-office appeal?
The cumulative box office of the movies "Dragon King of God" and "Searching for the Dragon" in which Big Baby participated were extremely high. Does this count as having high box office appeal?

Please, she's just a vase.To put it this way, if Li Binbin and Han Geng played a minor role in "Transformers 4", does it mean that the global box office totaling billions of yuan belongs to them?
When it comes to box office appeal, there is the simplest example. Whose name has become a brand, that is, the one with high box office appeal. For example, the names of Zhou Xingxing and Cheng Long are now brands.

We can talk about Zhou's nonsensical style, Cheng Long's movies, and Feng's comedies. These are all brands.

When did you hear about Wong Bo-style movies?
Huang Bo, who is known as the billionaire actor, made a love movie "The 101st Proposal", which is a field he is not good at. It didn't pass the review, and the box office of the movie was not very good, not even as good as "The Ruffian Hero". Later, The starring role in "Mozart from Outer Space" even went through the center of the earth and earned more than [-] million at the box office.

Several of Huang Bo's highest-grossing movies, such as "Crazy Racing", "囧" and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", are actually group dramas. Although his performance is good, he is not the main one. In fact, he is the golden supporting role. ideal position, so in fact he is not suitable to be the male lead, not even Wang Baoxiang, who is also a comedian, is suitable.

If a movie casts Wang Baoxiang as the male lead, investors don't have to think about it, there is absolutely no problem. On the other hand, if a movie casts Hu Ge as the male lead, investors may not be happy.

He is not Black Hu Ge either. His acting skills are actually not outstanding among his age group. His vision for selecting scripts is average and his style is relatively simple. Apart from being popular with the public and everyone will watch TV series, there is actually no future for him in movies.

This is the difference between TV stars and movie stars. It is the dream of all actors to switch from TV stars to the big screen, and Yang Mi is no exception.

Originally, she started out as a movie star on a pretty good track. Even a crude film like "Far Cry" could earn 9000 million at the box office. At the beginning of last year, her heroine in "Ball Lightning" even broke through the domestic film industry. Box office record!
But the next few movies revealed her true colors.

"Painted Skin 2" in which she participated was a hit, but she was not the protagonist, so she still had excuses to make. However, "Wu-Tang", which she co-starred with Zhao Wenzhuo, was a hit at both the word-of-mouth and box office. You just finished starring in a movie with a billion-dollar box office. The heroine!
At this moment, she desperately needs a commercial film that can explode at the box office to prove her box office appeal!
"Tiny Times" is undoubtedly a good choice!

Of course, the main selling point of the "Tiny Times" series is Guo Xiaosi. This doesn't matter. Anyway, Yang Mi knows very well that "Tiny Times" must have a box office of over [-] million no matter how bad it is!
But during this period of filming, Yang Mi discovered a problem. Although Gu Zhongyu had warned her before, she never expected that Guo Xiaosi really didn't understand any common sense about movies!
A director who doesn't know anything, and still spends all day behind the monitor, acting like I'm the most awesome person on this crew, and you all have to listen to me.
Yang Mi has been on the set since she was 6 years old. She has never seen any kind of director. It is obvious that "Tiny Times" is definitely a bad movie.

What will happen to an actress, especially a young actress whose popularity is still rising rapidly, if she makes one bad movie after another?

But there is no way, the pirate ship has already boarded. This time in "Tiny Times", Jiaxing himself has invested a lot, and he is considered half of his own son. He still has to help if he can. This time, the reputation is gone. , then you need to earn more money!
Yang Mi immediately thought of his childhood friend, good brother and lover Gu Zhongyu. After discussing it with Guo Xiaosi, she wanted to bring him to the premiere to support her. After all, he is now close to two billion-dollar box office movies. He already has a strong box office appeal, and his endorsement will definitely draw many passers-by into the cinema.

As soon as he thought of it, he did it. He skillfully found the scumbag's name in the address book and dialed it.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is currently on a call. Please call again later. Sorry! The subscriber you dialed..."

"Do you dare to pretend to be more fake? Do you think you can pretend to be a woman by holding your voice and talking?"

Hey, it seems that my falsetto skills are still not good enough.

"What do you want from me, Mi Mi?"

"Isn't "Tiny Times" about to be released? But Guo Xiaosi is not very popular in the industry. There are no big names coming to the platform, so he asked me to help. But the biggest name I know is you. You see. no…"

He knew that contacting me suddenly would not do anything good. Guo Xiaosi wanted me to stand up for him. It was really a toad pretending to be a little frog - he was ugly and had fun, so he deserved it?

Not only "Tiny Times", but also "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains", which was released at the same time, Andy Lau and Lin Zhilin also invited him to attend the premiere. Gu Zhongyu, who was invited by these two bad movies at the same time, was speechless.

In fact, it doesn't matter if you occasionally give credit to this kind of bad movie or say a few words at the premiere. People in the entertainment industry are so sophisticated. No director or actor dares to say that he has never supported a bad movie, and no one will stare at it. This kind of thing can't even be talked about as black history.

But if you really go to the premiere of "Tiny Times", will you go to "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains"?
After all, they have invited you, so no one will be offended if you don't go. If you only go to one of them, it will seem a bit contemptuous. Although Gu Zhongyu does despise these two movies in his heart, he can't express it.

So Gu Zhongyu immediately refused. I am busy here and have no time!

"You're so busy! I've already asked you, you haven't had much to do recently, and now you must be causing trouble to that woman, who is probably by your side, either kneeling or lying on her stomach!"

Hearing this, Gu Zhongyu looked around and then glanced at Jiang Shuying who was kneeling on the ground. It was strange that she had installed a camera on her body and her guess was so accurate?

"Even if I have nothing to do, I won't go. You know the quality of "Tiny Times" yourself. I don't want to say good things about this kind of movie. If I don't have anything else to do, I will give up first!"

asshole!

Da Mi Mi was so angry that his teeth were itching. If this guy had been in the past, he would have been able to dangle him with some small rewards or something, but now that he has been eaten up and wiped clean, and he has participated in the silver party, what else can he get? Seducing him?

"Wait a minute, I remember, are you interested in Guo Biting?" Da Mi Mi suddenly remembered this person. Based on the appearance of this sister, he didn't believe that Gu Zhongyu had no interest in beating her to death.

"So what? You want to use a honey trap! I am not the kind of casual person. You must not think of getting her drunk or unconscious and sending her to the ship. I will definitely not accept this as an honest person... Oh, it hurts!”

Jiang Shuying sounded unhappy.

Is this a hint?

Da Mi Mi had no choice but to say sorry to Guo Biting in his heart, and then said: "Come here! I don't want you to brag about rainbow farts. Just say that you came to support me for my sake. Regarding Guo Biting... I will find a way for you!" Like this! The conditions are quite interesting.

Ordinary girls would not be so attracted to him, but he has been adding Guo Biting on WeChat for so long. This woman's attitude towards him cannot be said to be overflowing with enthusiasm, but she can barely be said to be a stranger!

The two of them chatted for less than thirty sentences in total, and it was Gu Zhongyu who took the initiative. It almost made him wonder if his charm had faded, why was he so difficult to seduce?

That's how men are, the more things they can't get, the more they miss them.

"Well! I've thought about it. Adopting the best of hundreds of schools of thought is also a good way to learn and make progress. It's also possible for us, Director Guo, to bring some different changes to the film industry, so I'll drop by and have a look!"

Finally got you hooked.

After Da Mi Mi repeatedly stressed that he was not allowed to be late, he hung up the phone.

"Huh!" After the call, Gu Zhongyu also slumped down in his chair. It was indeed quite difficult to hold back his impulse while doing two things at once.

Jiang Shuying stood up and wanted to rinse her mouth with the cup on the table. Gu Zhongyu would not fall for her this time and quickly handed her a bottle of Feizhai water that had been prepared.

After taking a big gulp, Jiang Shuying wiped his mouth and felt that he didn't even need to eat at noon.

"Who is that Guo Biting? She actually made us Gu Daguan miss her so much that we went to support Guo Xiaosi because of her?"

She had heard all the conversation between the two of them just now. Gu Zhongyu never went behind her back when talking to others on the phone. She didn't know whether this was trust or whether he thought she was not a woman.

"She's just a woman who's not as beautiful as you, and her figure isn't as good as yours! Not to mention her, do you have any clues about the new assistant you hired for me?"

"Running Brother" has entered the preparatory stage, and the recording will definitely start at the end of this year. Bai Lu will slowly retire from the position of assistant and become an artist. Although there are still a few months to go, the new assistant also needs training. , Jiang Shuying has no time to teach new people now, so Bai Lu must teach himself.

This means that in the next few months, Gu Zhongyu will have two assistants to serve him.

Bai Lu is very melancholy now. Her job as an assistant is about to disappear. From now on, she can only be a small actor, acting and making some pocket money.

Although her income would be much higher in the future, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, so she was particularly obsessed with Gu Zhongyu during this period. Even if Gu Zhongyu brought other women home at night, she would bring a small pillow with her. Running in his room...

Jiang Shuying smiled and said, "How dare I not care about Mr. Gu's affairs? Besides?"

"And what?" Gu Zhongyu suddenly felt that Jiang Shuying had dug a hole waiting for him.

"I have already released the news that your current assistant, Bai Lu, will become a highly sought-after newcomer in Zongheng Entertainment. Therefore, there are many people applying to be assistants during this period, and many of them are young artists who have not yet made their mark in the industry!"

You know, each of these people want to use me as a springboard!
No wonder many people have left messages and resumes on his Weibo recently. They may be the people who have received the wind, and their sense of smell is also very sensitive.

He was very curious, if he really found a second- or third-tier female star as an assistant, and then Gu Zhongyu kept using her as an assistant without saying anything at all and asked her to act in movies and TV series, would it make her popular?

He rubbed his forehead and said, "Did you make it clear when you were recruiting people? I am recruiting assistants, not artists. Don't mislead others."

"As I said, this is how we persuade those female celebrities who want to become famous overnight. Otherwise, depending on the attitude of those people, they may have to climb on your boat on the first day of work!"

That's good, don't really find a female star or something, then Gu Zhongyu will definitely be on the hot search.

Moreover, this is too eye-catching and a bit exaggerated. No matter how inflated Gu Zhongyu is, he will not do such a thing.

"So what kind of assistant candidates are you recruiting now? Are you sure?"

"They are just people who have not debuted, and many are still students. Anyway, they are here to apply for assistants. There is one outside the door. When the people come, you can take a look. If it doesn't work, change them. There are plenty of spare people!"

There is something in what Secretary Jiang said!
I guess the HR in charge of recruitment may have understood Gu Zhongyu’s recruitment of assistants as recruiting future artists for the company?

"See you then."

"Okay, I'll let her in."

After Jiang Shuying shouted, a girl who looked a little young walked in with her head lowered.

At first glance, Gu Zhongyu felt that this girl couldn't be a high school student, right?She looks too young, just like Xiao Bailu back then. Why are all the assistants I recruit looking like such immature children?
Don't you have some misunderstanding about me caring about someone's XP?

"How old is she? You won't find me another underage, will you?"

"How could it be possible? She was born in 93, one year older than Bai Lu, and is a college student!" Jiang Shuying said.

Is this little girl okay?Until now, Gu Zhongyu couldn't even see what she looked like without raising her head.

It’s not like you’re ugly and you’re embarrassed to meet people, right?

Just as this thought flashed through Gu Zhongyu's mind, the girl raised her head.

I am!

 Guess who this new assistant is, and if you guess correctly, you will be rewarded with a kiss from me.
