Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 688 Return to China Film Studio

capital Airport.

"Did you miss me?" Liu Yifei hugged Gu Wei. After just a moment of contact, Gu Wei felt that the young lady had changed a little. Well, her mind became more open.

"Can practicing martial arts increase your size?" Gu Wei was somewhat confused, but he said honestly, "I miss you so much."

Fortunately, there were not many people at the Capital Airport at around 2 a.m., otherwise Gu Wei's low-key return to China would have been big news.

On the way home, the young lady drove the car herself, and Gu Wei sat in the passenger seat, listening to the other party chattering non-stop.

How many days will you stay in the country and when will you return to Hollywood?

I also asked when Zhang Yimou's "Jurassic World" will be completed?
There are also some gossips about domestic entertainment mixed in.

Looking at Miss Liu talking non-stop, Gu Wei felt inexplicably at ease and comfortable.

Just when Gu Wei was immersed in this feeling, the car suddenly became quiet. He turned his head and looked at Liu Yifei, who was pouting and looking unhappy.

"Well, the time is uncertain. It could be the end of the month or the beginning of next month."

Sure enough, upon hearing Gu Wei's answer, Liu Yifei's face changed instantly, which made him sigh in his heart, "Good boy, when did you learn Sichuan Opera face-changing again?"

Before coming back, Gu Wei also visited the crew of "Jurassic World". Zhang Yimou's progress was good and the filming would be completed this month.

It was also because Gu Wei's script was much richer, and Zhang Yimou was more cautious in shooting a special effects blockbuster for the first time, that the shooting time of "Jurassic World" was more than a month longer than the original time and space, and the corresponding costs naturally increased a lot.

But Universal Studios attached great importance to this movie, and it can be said that they provided the people and money when needed.

The final film of "Jurassic World" has not been edited yet, and the special effects are not even one-third completed, but Gu Wei is very satisfied with the shots that have been produced, and the quality is quite good.

The two of them returned home in this way. There were not many people around at night, and Miss Liu drove very fast, so when they got home, it was only three o'clock in the morning.

At this time, Liu Xiaoli and the nanny were naturally sleeping soundly. After eating a bowl of noodles prepared by the young lady, the two of them started to do their business.

The next day, no, it should be that afternoon.

When Gu Wei opened his eyes, apart from the pain in his back and waist, he felt extremely satisfied physically and mentally.

Turning his head to look at the little sister who was snoring slightly, Gu Wei gently rubbed her little face.

The sun rises early in the summer. Thinking about how the two of them tossed and turned until dawn before falling asleep, Gu Wei showed an obscene smile. He didn't expect that Miss Liu had unlocked new moves while practicing martial arts.

Thinking of this, Gu Wei licked his lips and made a chuckle. Fortunately, Liu Yifei hadn't woken up yet, otherwise, seeing him like this, she would have thought he was a complete pervert.

For the next two days, Gu Wei didn't go anywhere. He just sent a text message to Song Ge saying that he was back.

.........

Although some netizens outside speculated that Gu Wei had returned to China, there were no photos or news reports, and not many people paid attention to it.

But the entertainment industry is still bustling.

The successful listing of the restructured Hairun a while ago marked the addition of a new large company to the industry.

As a result, many film and television companies began to follow suit and planned to go public, including Tangren.

In the past two years, the Tang Dynasty has obviously been on a downward path, and it has lost its original glory.

I heard that many old employees who worked behind the scenes on the crew were poached at high prices by companies such as Xinli and Huace, and they were poached as a team.

Among all the artists, only Liu Shishi is still holding on and is considered a first-line star. The others, including Nazha, are still lukewarm.

Hairun's original listing method gave Tangren a way to imitate, but unfortunately Cai Yinong was obsessed with her young boyfriend and the company was in a mess. Even the reorganization did not meet the requirements for listing.

Now, Tangren’s dream of going public, which he had been planning for several years, has been completely shattered.

After resting for three days, news came from the other side of the ocean.

The head of Warner Bros. announced that "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" will launch a premiere tour in October. Director Gu Wei is currently in China, but will attend several premiere celebrations.

Now, Gu Wei’s cell phone instantly turned into a vibrator.

"Brother, you're back. Let's have dinner together!"

"Director Gu, let's get together some time!"

"Gu Wei, come over when you have time!"

"Director, please come to my house for dinner when you are free, and discuss the release of Wolf Warrior."

Among the many people thanking the bigwigs and friends for their invitations and dinner requests, Gu Wei was the first to respond to La Peikang.

The other party usually doesn't look for him, but when they do, there's usually something going on.

"Boss, I'm free this afternoon. What do you think of your schedule?"

"Well, I have a meeting at 2:30. Come over at 4."

"Okay, see you then."

The second person to call back was Wu Jing. Wolf Warrior is still three weeks away from release, and the promotion and marketing is currently in full swing.

This film is also the first military-themed work of Xingchen Film and Television Company, and it also serves as a test of the waters, so he has no choice but to treat it differently.

"Yifei and I will go see Xie Nan tonight, and we'll meet and talk then."

"No problem, Director."

There were too many calls and messages, so Gu Wei did not reply to them one by one. He just posted on Weibo, "I just came back for two days. Let's make an appointment after I have rested up."

Instantly, comments from netizens appeared.

Everyone said that Gu Wei was still young, so why was he taking a break and he should quickly schedule a film screening.

Some people even joked that Yifei had overexerted herself and should be more moderate. After seeing the comments, Liu Yifei's face turned red.

After joking with netizens, Gu Wei sorted out his next schedule. In Hollywood, Despicable Me 3, which DreamWorks is responsible for promoting, will be released in mid-October, and Gu Wei will definitely go to the premiere.

After the release of "Despicable Me 3", the "Minions" series will begin production.

"Frozen 2" will be released at the end of December, which is after the two got married.

As the main investor, Gu Wei must go to the premiere, and Liu Yifei, who participated in the dubbing of the leading role, is naturally indispensable as well.

Reid is in charge of The Conjuring, so Gu Wei doesn't have to worry about it. Thinking about it, it will only be a little busy in October, and after that, there should be time to prepare for the wedding.

As for China, "Knife of the Assassin 2" has not yet been completed, "Lost in Thailand" has just been approved, and "Painted Skin 3" and "Lost in Thailand" are expected to be released next year.

Wang Chen and Jiang Xueruo are in charge of the TV series, and Gu Wei usually doesn't ask too many questions.

Time flies when you are thinking. Gu Wei didn't even notice it when Miss Liu reminded him to go to China Film Studio.

Seeing Gu Wei taking the car keys and going out, Liu Yifei quickly put on makeup and chose gifts for Wu Jing and the others.

With more and more cars in the capital, traffic is naturally becoming more and more congested.

Gu Wei cursed for more than an hour, and only found out at the Central Film Studio that La Peikang was already waiting for him.

"Sorry, Mr. La, the traffic is too congested." He glanced at the time and it was already 4:10. Looking at La Peikang's appearance, he probably had been waiting for a while.

"Is it a traffic problem? Maybe your legs are tired after being back for a few days." La Peikang joked after taking a sip of tea.

When Gu Wei heard this, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter. How come he suddenly felt that La Peikang seemed like a different person?

In fact, only Gu Wei has this treatment. Since he took office as the chairman of China Film Group last year, Gu Wei has naturally become the focus of La Peikang's attention.

The former chairman Han Sanping had made a lot of political achievements by relying on the other party. La Peikang naturally understood this. Originally, he had a serious attitude towards Gu Wei, but after getting to know him for a while, he found that this way of getting along did not work and could not achieve the same effect as that between Han Sanping and Gu Wei.

Therefore, La Peikang decisively followed Han Sanping's example and tried his best to narrow the distance between him and Gu Wei through communication. The other party had so many big projects and high-quality scripts at home and abroad. Others might not know about it, but China Film Corporation naturally knew about it.

La Peikang was also thinking privately that perhaps he would have to rely on the other party to achieve his own political achievements.

Perhaps it was because it was the first time he told Gu Wei these jokes, or perhaps it was because he thought of his own identity, a slightly embarrassed expression appeared on La Peikang's face.

"Haha, Mr. La is quite humorous." Gu Wei replied with a joke.

The two chatted for a while, and La Peikang asked about the two domestic blockbusters that Gu Wei mentioned.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Wei realized that Han Sanping must have been careless with his words, so he directly told La Peikang.

At that time, Gu Wei called Song Ge and told him about it. Afterwards, Song Ge said that Han Sanping was also present. Gu Wei must believe Song Ge, so the only one left was Han Sanping.

"Did President Han say that?" Gu Wei asked uncertainly.

"Haha, Lao Han mentioned it. Didn't he let you come just after you came back?"

"Boss La, I'll tell you the truth. There are two movies about to be launched. One is "The Wandering Earth 2" and the other is a military-themed blockbuster. I'm preparing to..." Gu Wei talked freely, and basically didn't hide anything that could be said, and didn't mention a single word that shouldn't be said.

In "The Wandering Earth 2", La Peikang knew that when Gu Wei had not returned yet, Song Ge had mentioned this matter to Wang Changtian, Ye Ning and others. La Peikang was not present, but he just heard that the director wanted to replace someone and several companies disagreed.

As for military-themed movies, it should be the one Han Sanping mentioned.

La Peikang is interested in any movie. After all, the global box office record of "The Wandering Earth" has made Han Sanping leave a strong mark in the domestic cultural industry.

In fact, the reason why La Peikang called Gu Wei over today was naturally for the investment in the two movies.

After Gu Wei finished speaking, La Peikang also made some requests, such as increasing the proportion of China Film.

As for "The Wandering Earth 2", Gu Wei naturally disagreed. After all, with the foundation laid by the first film, this movie naturally had a box office foundation.

"How about this, Mr. La, you can give China Film Group a larger share of the military-themed movie. According to my plan, the investment in this movie will not be lower than that of the "Wandering Earth" series."

It was the first time that La Peikang had heard of a military film with such a large investment, and he was shocked.

"confident?"

“No, I’m not good at predicting. How can I be sure about it before the movie is released? But Wolf Warrior was invested with 200 million yuan, so the investment in a movie I direct myself cannot be too low.” Gu Wei said with a smile.

Afterwards, La Peikang and Gu Wei talked about the pros and cons of Internet capital entering the film and television industry. The two had different views. The former wanted to expand the market and achieve political achievements.

What Gu Wei wants is healthy development, not allowing capital to come in and make a quick buck and leave behind a mess for those who make the film industry to clean up.

...

When they came out of the Central Film Studio, it was almost six o'clock, and the two chatted for more than an hour.

Gu Wei returned home to pick up his little sister and went straight to Wu Jing.

Xie Nan has been pregnant for more than seven months. During this period, after Wu Jing finished filming the "SPL" crew, he has been running between home and Xingchen Film and Television.

Wu Jing also made dinner. It was simple but tasted good.

After dinner, Liu Yifei and Xie Nan went into the house to talk, while Gu Wei and Wu Jing started chatting.

"To be honest, I'm a loser. The movie is about to be released, and I'm getting more and more nervous every day." The two of them drank a pound of wine for dinner, and Wu Jing's face was a little red at this moment.

The two of them were half lying on the balcony, drinking tea and chatting.

"I won't say much about the publicity and promotion. You can coordinate with Chen Guofu on the premiere. I will invite some leaders of state-owned enterprises to attend to increase the popularity of the movie."

Gu Wei was also a little dizzy, but he still didn't forget the important things.

"I see. Thank you, Director."
