Chapter 259: The Deep Sea and the Flower Thousand Bone

In the next few days, Gu Wei had a lot of things.

The company held a celebration party for [Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage] and invited all the relevant personnel of the film.

From a large number of investors to all the production staff of the crew, no one is left behind.

The banquet did not invite any media to attend, but simply celebrated the success of the return of the Great Sage.

Like director Tian Xiaopeng and other crew members, Gu Wei gave them big red envelopes, and everyone was definitely satisfied according to their contributions.

Even though there may not be any more opportunities to cooperate in the future, they are all heroes of the box office success of the movie.

Gu Wei has made money, and he will never be stingy with them.

At the banquet, everyone was staggered, and everyone was immersed in the joy of success.

"Director Tian, do you have any plans for the future?"

After everyone at the main table raised their glasses and took a sip together, Gu Wei asked Tian Xiaopeng beside him.

Wang Changtian, who was sitting on the other side of him, also cast a concerned gaze.

"Amount"

Tian Xiaopeng pondered for a while.

"Originally, after [The Return of the Great Sage] was done, I had the idea of a sequel.

The original plan was to film the story of Monkey King making trouble in the heavenly palace. ”

"The prequel to [The Return of the Great Sage]?"

Wang Changtian interjected.

"That's right!

This section is the most exciting part of [Journey to the West], and if it is filmed, it will definitely attract the audience. ”

Tian Xiaopeng said.

Gu Wei could see the hesitation in his tone.

"Since you have an idea, does Director Tian still have any concerns now?"

"To be honest, Mr. Gu, I watched the story of a mother saving her daughter in the sea some time ago, and I had a lot of feelings in my heart.

I wanted to make an animated film based on this story, which takes place in the ocean.

As for the sequel to [The Return of the Great Sage], I want to put it first. ”

Tian Xiaopeng said sincerely.

Hearing Tian Xiaopeng say this, the smile on Gu Wei's face slowly converged.

Although Director Tian is an animation director, he still has his own artistic pursuits after all.

However, this kind of thing is not a good thing for investors, and countless examples have proved that when a director has a strong desire for self-expression, he often cannot make a film that can be enjoyed by the public.

It's not that the movie is bad, it's just that the director wants to output his own ideas, and it's easy to ignore the feelings of ordinary audiences, making the movie high and low.

At this point, director Jiang Wen is the best example, his movies are mixed with too many private goods, and he stuffs what he wants to express into it, regardless of whether the audience can accept it or not, whether he understands it, whether he likes it or not.

Gu Wei remembers that during the Spring Festival in 23, an animated movie called [Deep Sea] was released, which was directed by Tian Xiaopeng and co-produced by [Deep Sea October Media] (Tian Xiaopeng's own company) and [Light Media].

A total of 400 million yuan of high investment, the final box office landing point, about 900 million, net loss of nearly 100 million.

Later, when he watched it on the video platform, he only felt that the [Deep Sea] animation effect was very good, and the story was a bit of "Spirited Away", but the story was poor, and the atmosphere of the cartoon was a little "mournful", which was really not suitable for watching the New Year.

Although he knew this, Gu Wei didn't persuade anything.

Although more than half of the income brought by [The Return of the Great Sage] went into Gu Wei's pocket, in terms of fame, it was director Tian Xiaopeng who gained the most.

He is now the first person in the box office of domestic films in the director's circle, and it can be said that he became famous all over the world.

There are not too many people in the circle who want to make friends with him, cooperate with him, and send him money.

No matter what Tian Xiaopeng wants to shoot now, he will no longer have the trouble of lack of money.

Even if he continues to cooperate with [Wei Mingxia] and [Light Media] in the future, he will change from his original identity of being low and small to being absolutely dominant.

The film and television industry is so realistic, and the big directors with famous and works have a very big say power, because they are not short of investment at all, everyone knows that their films are likely to make money, and naturally there will be countless people waving checks hoping to join in.

Gu Wei didn't answer Tian Xiaopeng's words, but said that if he needed help, he could come to him at any time, and said a few polite words, and the atmosphere on the wine table was as warm as ever.

He also has his own animation company under his name, excellent animation production talents such as Director Dumpling, and most importantly, the top animation work "Demon Boy" that is being produced.

It is completely self-sufficient in terms of animated films, and after [Nezha] is done in the later stage, you can continue to do separate animations of [Yang Jian] [Sun Wukong] and others, and finally gather them together and make an animated version of the Chinese mythological universe like [Avengers].

So he is very indifferent to whether he can cooperate with Tian Xiaopeng in the later stage.

After the banquet, Gu Wei, as the host, sent away the main guests such as Tian Dao and Mr. Wang, and he also got into the nanny car and came to the Palm Springs International Apartment with the night of the capital.

Take the elevator up to the 28th floor and enter the code to open the door.

When I entered the door, I changed my shoes at the entrance and hung my coat on a coat hanger next to me.

"I'm back!"

Inside, Nazha heard a knock in the door and jumped over happily.

She was wearing pajamas with pale yellow cartoon patterns, stepping on a pair of white bear's big-headed slippers, her hair was tied into a bun, revealing a perfect side face and jawline, a slender neck, fair and pink skin, and a pair of big eyes looked at Gu Wei who had just entered the door, with a bright smile on her face.

As soon as Gu Wei turned around after hanging up his clothes, Nazha suddenly threw herself into his arms.

Hands around his neck, two straight, slender thighs clamped around his waist.

Gu Wei took advantage of the situation to hold Nazha's buttocks with both hands and hugged her up.

"So happy?"

"Of course, I've been filming for so long, I haven't seen you for a long time~"

Nazha hung on Gu Wei like a koala and said coquettishly.

"Usually I also call you and send you WeChat~"

"How can that work, you won't come to visit me."

Gu Wei carried her to the sofa in the living room and sat down, although Nazha weighed less than 100 pounds, it was not a problem for Gu Wei to hold it all the time, but it was more comfortable to sit down.

"You're filming, I'm filming, and there are other things, I'm much busier than you."

When she came back for the Chinese New Year, Nazha received an invitation from the crew of [Martial God Zhao Zilong] to play the role of the world's first beauty "Diao Chan", and she did not return to the capital until the crew finished a few days ago.

This drama is a TV series led by the famous producer and director Cheng Lidong, and the producer is also his company [Zhejiang Yongle Film and Television].

Director Cheng was originally a host of Blueberry Channel, and has a wide range of contacts on major TV stations, and has served as a producer of [New Water Margin] and [Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties].

Zhao Mingcheng, the general manager of Gu Wei's company, is an old friend of him.

This time, I found Nazha to play "Diao Chan" to see that her image was suitable, and with the relationship of [Wei Mingxia], Nazha casually tried the trial play and joined the group, and then the company arranged Mencius to play the female number three.

"So busy and still have time to spread scandals with others? And it's two! ”

After Gu Wei sat down, Nazha rode on his lap, and when he said this, his waist was all the way, and his hands were crossed on his waist, which was quite imposing.

The two people she said were of course Yang Mi and Liu Yifei.

Gu Wei wrapped his arms around her thin waist and gently brought it into his arms, and Nazha fell on Gu Wei's strong chest.

Then he lowered his head and looked down at her beautiful face.

"I haven't seen each other for two months, and little Nazha has a temper?"

Then he lowered his head and kissed him.

After a long time, the two separated, and Nazha's fair little face became red.

She slumped into Gu Wei's arms, pressed her side face against his chest, and gently patted him with her soft little hands.

"I hate it, I've been out of breath for so long~"

Gu Wei put his arms around Nazha's slender and soft waist, and lowered his head to sniff her hair.

"How was this filming? Did you run into any trouble? ”

"Fortunately, the filming of this drama went very smoothly, I played the first beauty of the Three Kingdoms 'Diao Chan', there is no difficulty, the lines are quite simple, I am the best at playing a beauty."

Nazha was still a little proud.

"You are so beautiful, of course it won't be difficult for you to play the role of a beauty~"

Gu Wei also followed her words and praised her.

"There are a lot of beauties in our crew, and Lin Yun'er, who plays the heroine, is very beautiful!

I'm nothing. ”

Nazha said modestly.

"Oh, the person who makes us all praise the beauty of Nazha seems to be really beautiful."

Regardless of whether in his previous life or in this life, Gu Wei has never seen Lin Yun'er in reality, he only knows that she is the face of the "thigh era".

Hearing Nazha say this, I couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"How are you getting along with the other actors on the crew?"

"It's good, maybe it's because they all have the experience of leaving [Sugar Man], and the actor Lin Gengxin is very kind to me.

The heroine Lin Yuna is a Korean actor and looks good, but unfortunately she can't speak Chinese, so it's usually inconvenient to communicate. ”

Ziyi and I get along well with other people.

Everybody is very friendly. ”

Nazha counted the rest of the crew with an innocent look.

"Coincidentally, I'm going to make a cameo appearance in [The Great Wall] next week, and Lin Gengxin is also in this movie, and we are still colleagues, and I will thank you for his care in the crew at that time."

Gu Wei has been a director, and he knows that the crew is a small society, and there are clear classes.

The first gear is the director, producer, and male and female protagonists, if you have these people in the crew, then others will be very kind to you.

is like the care he took of Reba when filming [Ancient Sword Strange Tan].

"You thank him for me? In what capacity? ”

Nazha looked at Gu Wei with a small face.

"Of course it's the boss, what else can it be?"

Gu Wei smiled and scratched Nazha's small nose and said with a smile.

"Hmph~ How can a boss keep coming to the employee's house?"

"Excellent employees have made a lot of money for the boss at the end of their work, and it is not very reasonable for the boss to come and reward him."

Gu Wei spread his hands and said.

"Scoundrel, scumbag!"

Nazha muttered quietly.

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing, praise you for being handsome and handsome~"

"Needless to say, this kind of thing that everyone knows~"

In the evening, Gu Wei accompanied Nazha to watch TV.

He leaned back on the sofa, Nazha nestled in his arms, holding a plate of lychees in his hand, and from time to time he opened one and put it in Gu Wei's mouth.

The two of them watched the Mango Channel Diamond Solo Theater, and Gu Wei's two TV series last year [Ancient Sword Strange Tan] and "Shanshan is Coming] were broadcast in this theater.

And what is being broadcast now is a TV series [Flower Thousand Bone] that has recently become popular.

It is said that since the beginning of 2015, there have been frequent explosive dramas, first the "Legend of Wu Meiniang" simulcast by Mango Channel and Blueberry Channel, and then Tang Yan and Zhong Hanliang's version of "He Yisheng Xiaomo" broadcast exclusively by Litchi Channel.

Then it was Zhao Liying and Huo Jianhua's cooperation on this [Flower Thousand Bone].

Especially [Flower Thousand Bone], the popularity is surprisingly high.

Since the launch of this TV series, both the ratings and the viewership share have maintained the first place in the same period, and the number of network hits has also remained high.

Many episodes in the TV series have also triggered a craze for imitation among netizens, and "the power of the wilderness" has become a hot word on the Internet.

not only broke the ratings record of Chinese weekly dramas set by [Ancient Sword and Strange Tan], but also surpassed [The Legend of Wu Meiniang] to win the first place in a number of online broadcast data.

Now that the TV series has not yet been broadcast, its network hits are about to reach 10 billion.

It can be said that [Hua Qiangu] really broke out of the circle and became a phenomenal TV series.

Zhao Liying really stood on the front line with this TV series, originally last year, she cooperated with Gu Wei [Shanshan is Coming] was a big hit, and touched the side of the first-line star, in just half a year, [Hua Qiangu] Zhensheng made her a top actress who is not inferior to Yang Mi, Tang Yan and others.

Since the start of the TV series, Zhao Liying's Weibo fans have increased by more than 20 million, and countless passers-by have become Zhao Liying's fans "Firefly" because of this TV series.

Huo Jianhua, who plays the male lead, has also taken a step forward in his career because of [Hua Qiangu].

Gu Wei has been in the film industry for the past two months, and he doesn't pay much attention to popular TV series, even so, every time he turns on his phone, he can always see Zhao Liying and Huo Jianhua hanging on the hot search list.

"Do you like this TV show very much?"

Gu Wei asked Nazha in his arms.

She chose the TV series, and she has been watching it with relish since it began.

"Of course, during this time, [Hua Qiangu] is super hot, and I have been chasing it every week.

I love the character of 'Little Bone', it's so cute! ”

Nazha's eyes were fixed on the TV screen, and she replied to Gu Wei without raising her head, and she would laugh silly twice when she saw the sweet plot.

Gu Wei lowered his head and took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Zhao Liying.

"Congratulations to [Flower Thousand Bone] for exploding!"

He has always had a good relationship with Zhao Liying, and he has been busy a little bit of neglect before, and today he thought of congratulating her.

"The TV series is almost over, your congratulations have just come, and the news is too ill-informed! (glare)"

What Gu Wei didn't expect was that Zhao Liying's WeChat replied in seconds.

"I've been busy with movies lately, and I've been a little negligent, next time I have a chance to invite you to dinner!"

"Okay, I'm sure I'm going to eat it.

I remember that after recording [Running Man] last year, you said that you were looking for me to act, why didn't there be any movement? ”

Gu Wei didn't expect to contact Zhao Liying before she mentioned it.

"You are all big stars now, are you still short of acting?"

"Do you know I'm a big star, why don't you come to me soon?"

"Obey the order, don't let the big star wait too long."

In Hengdian Film and Television City, Zhao Liying was lying on the bed in the hotel room after a day of filming and applying a mask.

She held her mobile phone in both hands, looked at the message that Gu Wei replied to above, and laughed out loud.

"It's pretty much the same, don't care if you have a good attitude~"

“.”

Gu Wei's WeChat gesture attracted Naza's attention, and her eyes shifted from the TV to Gu Wei's mobile phone.

"Who are you talking to?"

She asked curiously.

"Zhao Liying, [Hua Qiangu] has such a good grade, congratulations to her."

Gu Wei then said, without any concealment.

"Do you have a good relationship with her?"

"Well, it's not bad, you forgot that I worked with her last year on [Shanshan is Coming].

She is now a drama at a level, and the development momentum is too strong! ”

Listening to what Gu Wei said and glancing at the text on his mobile phone, Nazha suddenly felt that the "flower thousand bones" on the TV was not fragrant.

She suddenly raised her head and kissed Gu Wei on the cheek.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Wei asked a little inexplicably.

"I'm sleepy, let's go rest~"

Nazha frowned slightly, looking at him with a pair of big watery eyes, and her pitiful expression was like a kitten waiting for its owner to feed.

Gu Wei glanced at WeChat, said goodnight to Zhao Liying, put the phone aside, got up and picked up Nazha horizontally, and walked towards the bedroom.
