Chapter 33: The Gift

I have to say that "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" is a very good movie.

This movie is a purely realistic feature film, without those action scenes of car chase explosions, but because the inner drama is energetic, the emotional drama is material, and the rival scene is conflicting, it doesn't feel lengthy at all.

The film touches on several core issues in the family: husband and wife, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and children's education.

After watching the movie, Gu Wei knew that the box office of this movie was not high, and he might be able to win the award, but he would definitely not get the box office.

This is the current situation of the Chinese film market at this stage, in addition to comedies, only commercial blockbusters with high investment and star participation can get high box office.

Low-budget feature films basically have only one way to win awards.

However, with the development of time, the Chinese film market has further matured, and in the future, feature films with realistic themes such as "I Am Not the God of Medicine" and "Life Events" can also achieve high box office.

This requires the progress of film creators little by little, and the further maturity of the moviegoers.

At the end of the premiere ceremony, Gu Wei said goodbye to a few friends and teacher Wang Qianyuan and returned to the hotel. Zhang Tianai is not here, he should have returned to his residence.

Zhang Tianai has been renting a house since she came to the capital, her family conditions are good, and she earned a lot as a model in the early days, she is not a person who wronged herself, so she chose to rent a house with a good environment and location, and she has not changed places in recent years.

Gu Wei has been there a few times, the house is not big, but the decoration is very warm.

Gu Wei's phone rang, and when he took it out, he saw that it was his mother.

I told my family about making a movie last semester, after all, I didn't go home all summer vacation.

At first, his parents thought it was the crew that Gu Wei gave as a gift of 200,000 yuan before, but Gu Wei explained briefly, but said that this opportunity was introduced by a teacher in the school.

Recently, the movie was released, Gu Wei also reported good news to the family, but his father didn't respond, his mother called him twice in 3 days, and told him that the movie was really good, and which relatives in the family praised him again, and he was enjoying it every day.

"Son, are you busy?"

"I'm not busy, I just came back from running propaganda from the field two days ago."

"When you are out alone, remember to eat on time, and don't tire yourself out of work even if it is important." Mom said bitterly.

"Don't worry, Mom. I'm a big man, and I can take care of myself outside. ”

"I have something to tell you, I discussed it with your father and wanted to buy you a house in the capital."

"Mom, why do you two suddenly want to buy a house?" Gu Wei wondered.

When he first went to school, he also persuaded his parents to buy a house in the capital.

After all, it was only 11 years at that time, and the house in the capital was bought and earned.

But at that time, his parents didn't take his words seriously, but just told him to study hard, and take care of the affairs of adults and children.

"When I started with your dad, I didn't know if you could go down the road of acting.

Originally, I thought that after graduation, if you don't develop well in the entertainment industry, you will come home, follow your father, and slowly take over your father's small factory. In this way, I will not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life.

I didn't expect you to give us such a big surprise after just over 1 year of school, and my son is also a big star now. ”

Mom said happily.

"What a big star, I just made this movie."

"A good performance is also a big star, my relatives and friends at home have mobilized them to go to the movies, and when I come back, I praise you, saying that your son is so good and handsome.

It's going to be a big star in the future. ”

Mom said as if she had thought of something, and her tone was high.

"If you can go on the road of acting in the future, your father and I will consider buying you a place to stay in the capital, whether you go to school now or graduate and work in the future, you must have a place to live."

Gu Wei thought for a while and said

"Mom, don't worry, buying a house is not a trivial matter, and the housing prices in Beijing are not comparable to ours.

Wait for the Chinese New Year when I go home, our family of three will discuss it well, if it is set, you and my father will take the time to come to the capital and buy the house when school starts next year. ”

"Okay, listen to my son." After Gu Wei's movie was released, although he didn't go home, he could feel it on the phone call from his parents, they no longer regarded him as a child, and they had more trust in his words.

Then I listened to my mother's nagging for a while, telling him to eat on time, not to stay up late, to put on more clothes and not to freeze, etc.

When he was in college in the previous life, Gu Wei was most annoyed by his mother's nagging, and every time he called to ask for money, he was very impatient to listen to the nagging.

It sounds quite kind now, and I have the patience to respond to her.

Is Gu Weiyuan out of town, the only thing he can do is to tell his family that he is all right, and he doesn't have to worry about them, this is the greatest filial piety to his parents.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Wei called the driver, Master Zhang, to come and pick him up.

got into the car, "Master Zhang, take me to the nearest shopping mall." ”

"Okay, Mr. Gu."

After a while, the car stopped outside the China World Trade Mall, Gu Wei brought a three-piece cap, sunglasses, and a mask, and explained that the driver was waiting for him to walk into the mall.

Now after all, he has some popularity, and Gu Wei always pays attention to protecting himself when he goes out. The three-piece set is bringed, and familiar people dare not recognize it.

After strolling around the mall for a while, Gu Wei walked past a Cartier store and thought about walking in.

The sales staff greeted him warmly, "Hello sir, can I help you?" ”

The salesman is probably less than 30 years old, very slim, wearing a professional suit, and the exposed wrists and neck are decorated with simple jewelry, and the overall look is eye-catching.

Gu Wei looked around, "I want to see the lady's watch." ”

The smile on the salesman's face was even brighter. "Sir, please move over here."

As he spoke, he led Gu Wei to a counter.

"This counter is Cartier's newest and hottest women's watch.

Can I tell you about each of them? ”

Gu Wei glanced at the dazzling array of watches on the counter and pointed to a watch with a blue dial and strap. "Take this out and I'll take a look."

The sales person took out the watch and handed it to Gu Wei, and kept introducing it

"Sir, you really have an eye, this is one of the hottest women's watches we sell at Cartier right now - the Cartier Blue Balloon Collection.

It has a 42 mm dial and a self-winding mechanical movement crafted in the Cartier 1847 MC workshop. 750‰ rose gold case, fluted crown set with a sapphire cabochon, blue guillochΓ© dial.

Sword-shaped pointers. Sapphire crystal finish. Navy blue alligator leather strap with interchangeable 750‰ pink gold folding clasp. Wearing it highlights the noble and elegant temperament of the owner. ”

The sales said a lot, and Gu Wei didn't listen carefully, he just thought that this watch was very good-looking, and it matched his girlfriend's temperament.

He bought the watch to give it to Zhang Tianai, Zhang Tianai's birthday at the end of last month, just in time for the release of [Embroidered Spring Knife], as a starring actor and investor, he has a busy day to do, and finally the two had a meal together and celebrated a little. He didn't have time to prepare any gifts.

Now that things are not busy, I can just make up for the gifts, and I believe she will like it too.

"How much?"

"Sir, a total of 135,000 yuan." Sales smile like a flower.

"That's it, wrap it up for me." After speaking, follow the sales to the front desk to check out.
