Chapter 300: Will You Not Want Me?
July passed quickly, and [Monster Hunt] continued to sell well in the third week, winning 460 million box office in 7 days, and the total box office came to 1.94 billion, officially surpassing [The Return of the Great Sage] and becoming the box office champion in domestic films.
On the day that [Monster Hunt] reached the top on Friday, Gu Wei specially instructed Director Tian Xiaopeng to post a message on the official Weibo in the name of the crew of [Return of the Great Sage].
The picture shows the "Great Sage" handing his golden hoop stick to the little demon king "Huba".
With the text "Take the baton to you, you must win!" ”
The meaning is self-explanatory.
The official Weibo over there also replied in seconds, saying that after taking over the responsibility of being the box office champion of domestic films, he will definitely work harder and will not disappoint the Great Sage!
The interaction between the two sides has also set off a lot of discussion on the Internet.
Now in the domestic film market, there are two movies standing in front of [Monster Hunt].
1.979 billion [Transformers 4: Reborn from Extinction] and 2.426 billion [Fast and Furious 7].
According to the current box office results of [Monster Hunt], it only takes one day in the fourth week to surpass [Change 4].
It's just that whether it can surpass [Super 7] has become a concern for industry peers and a large number of domestic movie audiences.
Generally speaking, everyone is still relatively optimistic, after all, there is still a lot of time left for [Monster Hunt], and the box office gap between the two movies is not too much.
[Pancake Man] only won 130 million at the box office this week, and the results of a single week are not as good as the single day on the first day of release, but the total box office broke 1 billion, which is still something to celebrate.
As of the end of the month, Chen Kaige's "Taoist Priest Descending the Mountain" and Guo Xiaosi's "Small Times 4" have been screened one after another.
[Taoist Priest Descending the Mountain] finally had a box office of 400 million, setting a new box office high for a film directed by Chen Kaige.
However, according to the news released by the producer, the cost of [Taoist Priest Descending the Mountain] is 200 million, and this box office is still a loss.
Moreover, the movie lost a mess in terms of word-of-mouth, although it has not yet reached the level of [Wuji], but there is no doubt that Director Chen once again disappointed the audience.
In contrast, Director Guo's [Small Times 4] finally got a box office score of 487 million, once again refreshing the insider's perception of fan movies.
After all, the reputation of the [Small Times] series of movies has long been rotten, and now the last one, the box office has risen instead of falling, and it is completely supported by fanatical fans.
Since the two movies are about the same time, they will inevitably be compared by netizens, of course, although the audience is very disappointed with [Taoist Priest Descending the Mountain], they still think that its quality is far superior to that of [Small Times 4].
It's just a slight loss at the box office.
It is estimated that Director Chen never thought that he would one day be compared to Director Guo Xiaosi, whether he won or lost, he would feel that it was a shame.
In the summer of July, the mainland film market handed in an amazing answer sheet this month.
The box office in a single month is nearly 5.5 billion!
This data is 2.1 billion higher than last month, an increase of more than 50% over the same period last year, and it also rewrites the 4.1 billion mainland film record set in February this year.
The domestic film market has been growing and growing, and now the highest box office of a single film is more than 2 billion, and there will be 3 billion, 4 billion or even more in the future.
The film market is getting hotter and hotter, and more and more capital values the entertainment market and wants to enter the market for a piece of the pie.
The company's large conference room.
The main cast and crew of the crew had just finished a day of script reading, and everyone looked more or less tired.
Liu Yifei, who was sitting on Gu Wei's left, was wearing a lilac casual suit, her hair tied up high, a black-framed glasses on her face, and a bookish face.
It can be seen that the makeup on her face is very light, and the clothes are also very casual, but the cold white skin and perfect facial features make everyone who sees her have a word "big beauty!" ”
Due to the very tight time to go to New York for filming, Gu Wei arranged for everyone to conduct a period of script siege before departure.
Let the crew's photography team, recording team, art team, production team and actors, while fully running-in, be familiar with the work they need to do and the scenes they play, so that they can have a higher work efficiency when filming.
"Okay, that's all for today, everyone has worked hard.
Let's continue tomorrow at 9 a.m., don't be late! ”
As Gu Wei's words sounded, today's script reading ended.
"Okay, Director"
After everyone replied, they walked out of the conference room one after another.
Liu Yifei held his neck with one hand, and his head moved left and right.
In the early years, when she was filming some action scenes, she suffered a neck injury, and although she was cured in the later stage, she also left some root causes.
Sitting and reading the script for a long time today caused some discomfort to her cervical spine.
"Sister Yifei, let's have dinner together and then go back?"
Gu Wei next to him invited.
Today's script reading also started in the morning, at noon, everyone dealt with a boxed lunch in the company, and continued in the afternoon, a whole day, very tiring.
Listening to Gu Wei's words, Nazha, who was sitting on the other side of him, also looked over.
Liu Yifei looked at Gu Wei, then at Nazha who was looking here, and said with a smile:
"No, it's not too late today, my mother is still waiting for me to go back to dinner at home."
"Well, I'll have time to invite you alone~"
Saying that, Liu Yifei sorted out the script and information in front of him, got up to say hello and left.
Gu Wei didn't care, he was originally invited casually, and it didn't matter if the other party agreed or not.
He also stood up and sent Wang Baoqiang, Xiao Yan and others away one after another.
Naza's big eyes blinked, and there was no change on her face, but she breathed a long sigh of relief in her heart.
She wore a denim-style dress today, in order to facilitate work, she tied a ball on her head, painted beautiful makeup on her face, and her facial features were exquisite, looking cute and glamorous.
It stands to reason that she and Liu Yifei are both top beauties.
It is not realistic to compare the level from the appearance.
If you like her, she is prettier, and if you like Liu Yifei, she is prettier.
Turnip greens have their own loves, and aesthetics are inherently very personal.
But when she sat down with the somewhat unkempt Liu Yifei in exquisite dress, she was always a little unconfident.
Obviously, they don't wear much makeup, their clothes are a little rustic, and they wear ugly black-rimmed glasses.
But she always felt that the other party was like a daughter, and she was a bit like the maid next to the miss.
And she also felt that when reading the script, the two of them sat on both sides of Gu Wei.
At first, the crew and other actors were amazed by the beauty of the two, and they would take a second look from time to time.
But gradually paying attention to Liu Yifei's eyes became more and more, completely surpassing her.
Saying this is a bit like she doesn't pay attention during the day.
It can't be helped, when one top beauty meets another, this kind of comparison can't be suppressed.
But what made her a little strange was that Liu Yifei only said hello to her with a smile when she came in the morning, and she didn't pay attention to her except for work exchanges in the later period.
This also hit her hard.
Gu Wei's company is not far from Liu Yifei's home.
I got out of his company, got in the car, and arrived home in a short time.
When you enter the door, you change your shoes at the entrance and put aside the pocket where you carry your documents.
"Hmm~ It's so fragrant!
Mom, what are you going to do for me? ”
While walking inside, Liu Yifei shouted loudly.
Wearing a dark home dress and an apron, Liu's mother came out of the kitchen and put two dishes on the table.
"You messaged you to come back for dinner, and I made two more dishes of your choice."
"Mom is so nice~"
Liu Yifei came to her mother, hugged each other's arms, and smiled coquettishly.
"How old are they, they are still coquettish, the big girl's family is more stable!"
Liu Xiaoli was obviously very happy, but she still talked about her daughter.
"How old a person is also a mother's daughter~"
As he spoke, he sat down, picked up his chopsticks and was about to pick up the dishes.
Liu Xiaoli reached out and patted the back of her hand.
"Go wash your hands!
"Oh~"
Liu Yifei put down her chopsticks a little reluctantly and walked to the bathroom obediently.
After a while, the mother and daughter sat down on either side of the table and began to eat.
"It's been a busy day today, didn't Gu Wei entertain you to have dinner in the evening?
I thought you wouldn't come back to eat. ”
Liu Xiaoli took a chopstick tomato scrambled egg to her daughter and asked.
"He invited me, but I didn't agree.
Anyway, it's still early, so it's good to come back and eat. ”
Liu Yifei picked up the spoon, took a sip of the white fungus soup beside him, and said without raising his head.
Liu Xiaoli frowned.
"The box office of [Monster Hunt] has exceeded 2 billion, you know?"
"You know, what's wrong?"
"The total box office of the movie starring Gu Weiyi has exceeded 4 billion."
"Wow, really.
If you don't say it, I don't even feel it, the young big boy who filmed [Embroidered Spring Knife] with me 3 years ago has achieved such a high level of achievement now. ”
Liu Yifei said with some surprise.
"You, you, you know you've known each other for more than 3 years.
I haven't told you before, get along with each other. ”
Liu Xiaoli has some hatred that iron does not become steel.
"I'm getting along well, our relationship has always been good, otherwise the heroine of [Tang Detective 2] can he find me?"
Liu Yifei pretended to be a little stupid and said.
"You know what I said didn't mean that, seriously, what do you think of Gu Wei, is it possible to develop with him?"
Although she has mentioned it to her daughter several times, her daughter has also replied to her before.
But seeing Gu Wei's career developing better and better, Liu Xiaoli still couldn't help but think about how good it would be if these two people were together.
Not to mention anything else, as far as she knows, the market value of the company under Gu Wei's name is at least billions, and the profits from filming and investing in various film and television dramas are also more than one billion.
Although this asset is nothing in front of the top rich, don't forget that Gu Wei is only 23 years old this year.
A proper young man.
In addition, his current development trend is getting better and better, and his voice in the entertainment industry is getting bigger and bigger, if he is a pair with Liu Yifei, he can be of great help to his daughter in her career.
If he was replaced by someone else, even if he was richer than Gu Wei, he would not be able to take out so many of his resources.
"Mom~ Didn't I tell you before, we are very good friends, as for going further, I haven't thought about it yet."
Liu Yifei lowered his head and poked the rice in the bowl and said.
"But you're 28, and since you're on such a good relationship, why don't you try to go further?"
Liu Xiaoli was a little anxious.
"What's wrong with 28, even if I'm 38, I don't worry about getting married, people who like me can line up from Tiananmen Square to the princess's grave."
Liu Yifei's voice was a little higher.
"Okay~ I was wrong, 28 is not in a hurry, it has nothing to do with age, so do you have any concerns?"
"Mom~ I understand what you mean.
To be honest, I have known Gu Wei for more than 3 years, and he really meets my criteria for choosing a mate.
People are handsome and have a good figure, a gentle temper, and a loving heart, and they feel very comfortable communicating.
Sometimes when I'm alone with him, I'm really a little tempted. ”
Liu Yifei held his chin with one hand, and looked at the air with his eyes, as if he had thought of something.
"Then what are you hesitating about?"
Looking at Liu Xiaoli's anxious face, Liu Yifei felt a little funny.
"Mom~ Isn't falling in love a matter of two people, what's the use of me agreeing alone?"
"What, could it be that Gu Wei doesn't like you?"
Liu Xiaoli was very surprised, in her heart, only her daughter chose someone else's share, after all, everyone loves Liu Yifei, how can anyone not like their daughter?
"At least when I was with him, I didn't feel that he wanted to develop further with me.
It's all about good friends. ”
"Could it be that he is more shy and can't express himself in front of you, you don't see it?"
Liu Xiaoli guessed.
"Gu Wei is shy?
Hehe, what he says is a little affectionate, and what he doesn't sound good is a scumbag! ”
Liu Yifei said disdainfully.
"Oh? Is Gu Wei's private life chaotic? ”
This is something that Liu Xiaoli doesn't understand, if Gu Wei's character is not good, then no matter how good the other conditions are, she will not let her daughter jump into the fire pit.
"That's not it, he doesn't have an official girlfriend now, but there are a lot of ex-girlfriends, and I know of two.
He called in front of me when he first filmed [Embroidered Spring Knife], and later we had dinner together, and he never shied away from talking.
With his current conditions, it is inevitable that the peach blossoms will be prosperous.
The most infuriating thing is that in front of me, he never hides this.
Mom, do you think he has any thoughts on further development with me? ”
It was okay at first, but Liu Yifei was a little angry after saying that.
Do I like you or not, don't you like me at all?
"That's it~"
Liu Xiaoli listened to her daughter's words and understood.
But in the end, she was more open-minded.
Liu's mother was originally from a wealthy family, and there were many relatives, friends, high-ranking officials and wealthy people around her.
There are only a handful of men who really have power and wealth outside, and there are only a handful of them from the beginning.
Although she very much hopes that her daughter's object is this kind of person, she also knows that this kind of man is too few and too few.
Unless you find a son-in-law, she is inferior to her daughter in all aspects.
But this kind of person is not to mention her, and it is estimated that her daughter will not look down on her.
"Hey~
Mom won't tell you this anymore, just let it be.
No matter what decision you make in the end, Mom has your back! ”
Liu Xiaoli said seriously.
"Hmm~
Mom, I know! ”
Liu Yifei raised his head, his eyes looked into the air, and his thoughts drifted to somewhere.
Evening, Palm Springs International Apartments.
Gu Wei and Nazha sat on the sofa in their couple's cartoon pajamas.
Gu Wei was sending a message on his mobile phone, and he was communicating something with Director Sophie, who was far away across the ocean.
There are 12 time zones between Beijing and New York, and it is the time when I just start work in the morning.
Nazha shrunk in Gu Wei's arms, watching the TV a little absentmindedly.
She has removed her makeup, her skin is fair and pink, her lips are not so red, and she looks pure and lovely.
After discussing one thing with Director Sophie, Gu Wei, who turned off his mobile phone, looked down at Nazha in his arms.
I found her pouting with a pink little mouth and an unhappy look on her face.
He hugged her up, and a hand slipped through her clothes, but Naza still didn't respond.
"What's wrong, why are you angry?"
Naza turned her head and looked at Gu Wei.
"Do you think Liu Yifei is very beautiful today?"
Gu Wei was stunned.
"It's okay, hasn't she always been like that, and I haven't known her for a day or two~"
He didn't understand what Naza meant.
"If you're with Liu Yifei, can you not abandon me?"
Nazha was a little pitiful, looking at Gu Wei with big eyes, like a puppy abandoned by her master.
"What do you think, we are good friends, and we still abandon you, where is this?"
Gu Wei couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't know where Naza came from.
"I'm not worried about how you get along with other people outside.
But if you're with Liu Yifei, I always think you'll don't want me~"
At this time, Nazha had long regarded Gu Wei as her only support, and she really didn't dare to imagine what would become of her if Gu Wei abandoned her.
With her confidence in her appearance, no matter who Gu Wei was with outside, she was not worried.
Flowers are flowers, as long as Gu Wei has a place for her.
But if the other party was Liu Yifei, she was very worried that Gu Wei would stop it.
Like when she was in college, she announced her relationship with everyone around her, and she was only good to her girlfriend wholeheartedly, and she really didn't know how to deal with herself at that time.
"You little brain, can't you concentrate on work if you think about these useless things every day?"
As he spoke, Gu Wei flicked Naza's smooth forehead with both fingers.
"Oops~"
His hands hugged her harder.
"Don't worry, no matter when, I won't want you~
This is my promise to you! ”
Nazha shrank into Gu Wei's arms, as if she wanted to melt herself into his body.
After a while, she raised her head and looked at Gu Wei.
"Love me~"
Gu Wei sighed.
It seems that just talking doesn't work, and actions have to keep up!
