Early the next morning, Gu Wei appeared on time in the crew.

This trip to New York to film, no matter what you do, the bottom line is not to delay the filming of the movie.

Unlike before when he was in other crews, he is the director and starring in the [Tang Detective] series, as long as he is not there, the crew has to be suspended, so there is no delay for a day.

"Bao Qiang, Xiao Yan, it's early!"

"Early~Director~"

smiled and greeted the leading actors, and Gu Wei took the shooting schedule handed over by the assistant director.

This morning's filming is a scene where a trio of detectives look for clues at the scene of a murder in the Hudson River, there are no big scenes, and there are no other actors, so it's relatively simple.

Soon everyone put on makeup, sorted out their mood, and began to enter the official shooting.

"Caucasian woman loses her kidney."

"The yellow man lost his heart and couldn't find any clues!"

"If it is found, the case will be solved."

Concentrate on your work, time always flies quickly.

There is no need to worry about other things, only the shots and lines of Gu Wei, Wang Baoqiang, and Xiao Yan.

All three of them are absolutely powerful.

Gu Wei doesn't say that although Wang Baoqiang and Xiao Zhen are both comedy actors, their acting skills are absolutely upper-class among the domestic male stars.

Wang Baoqiang has already proved himself with [Blind Well] and [Hello, Mr. Tree] that he is a real actor.

Although Xiao Yan has not achieved anything yet, Gu Wei knows his strength.

The future Golden Rooster actor, the [Manslaughter] series of movies allowed him to show his acting skills to the fullest.

Gu Wei found a very interesting thing in the entertainment industry, many comedians have very good acting skills, especially sketch actors, such as Zhao Benshan and Scope, put them in the film and television industry, their acting skills can be killed indiscriminately, and they are all at the level of actors.

Of course, this is not absolute, just like in the cross talk [Deyun Club], except for Mr. Yu Sign, there are too many acting skills.

Several scenes were basically done all over again, and for the sake of insurance, Gu Wei insured another one.

At noon, the crew was eating, and Gu Wei was no exception.

Their lunch meal was ordered at a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown.

Just like the domestic bento, rice is added with stir-fried vegetables.

His food is said to be so delicious that many Americans, in addition to the residents of Chinatown, come to taste it.

However, Gu Wei always felt that the dishes were too sweet, saying that it was Chinese food, which was still different from domestic restaurants.

I put a kung pao chicken into the bowl, and the mobile phone that was placed aside rang.

Gu Wei picked it up and saw that it was a message from Ao Mei.

"Last night was perfect and I'm satisfied.

I'm going back to Los Angeles in the afternoon, and I won't bother you much knowing that you're busy filming right now.

But next time I come to the United States, I hope you will take the initiative to contact me.

When the time comes, I will show you the beautiful scenery here, and I will definitely give you a different experience! ”

After reading the information, glancing at the Audemars Piguet watch on his wrist, Gu Wei smiled.

"I don't feel sad about parting because I think reunion is the most romantic thing in the world.

Hope to meet the beautiful and unique Miss Elizabeth Olsen again in a beautiful season and in a beautiful place next time! ”

After sending the message, turn off your phone and continue eating.

In the VIP waiting hall of the airport, Ao Mei, wearing a white shirt and skinny jeans, sat on the rest sofa.

She held her mobile phone and read the message that Gu Wei replied back and forth several times, with a bright smile on her face.

Scarlett, who was sitting opposite, was wearing a light blue dress and a bowler hat, and she looked very lazy.

It's no coincidence that they're together, and they're both going back to Los Angeles to join the group [Avengers 3].

Scarlett looked at Olsen's radiant, smiling face and asked with interest:

"Didn't your little boyfriend come to see you off?"

Of course, Ao Mei knew who she was talking about, and raised her head and put down her phone.

"What a little boyfriend, it's a good friend of mine.

His filming schedule in New York was tight and he couldn't afford to delay a day. ”

"Oh?

Good friend~"

Scarlett's smile was a little playful.

"To be honest, it's the first time I've seen such a handsome Oriental.

I always thought that Oriental men were all Bruce Lee, Jack Chen, and them, flexible little men, short and concise!

Yesterday, I was in a hurry, and I felt that your friend was very tall, and seemed to be about the same size as Chris, but he was more handsome than him.

There are not many such physiognomy in Hollywood.

And it looks tender, just like a high school student. ”

Scarlett's full name is Chris Evans, the actor of Captain America in Marvel.

"The Oriental looks younger, but he's three years younger than me."

Olsen explained, and when she heard the other party praise Gu Wei, she was also a little proud.

Scarlett smiled and leaned forward slightly.

"Mind introducing your best friend to me?

I think I'd love to get to know such a special Oriental man! ”

Olsen looked at her with some surprise.

"Scarlett, what do you want to do, you're already married!"

"What about getting married, I've been living separately for a long time, but because of the ties of having children, everyone hasn't really made up their minds, and now they're just playing their own games."

She leaned back with a nonchalant expression.

Scarlett made her relationship public with French journalist Romain Daric in 2012, and later got engaged, had children, and got married until now, if there is no accident, the two will officially announce their divorce at the age of 17.

"Gu is not an ordinary person, he is very famous in China, he is a top superstar over there.

When I met him at London Fashion Week, he was the global face of Louis Vuitton and had a good relationship with Mr. Bernard of the LV Group.

And he's a billionaire, not the kind of little man he calls for. ”

Olsen was afraid that Scarlett would misunderstand Gu Wei's appearance and age, so he hurriedly explained to her.

"Haha~ Elizabeth, you misunderstood, I really just want to meet this friend.

You've said so much, and now I'm more interested in him. ”

Scarlett chuckled.

The charm exuded between the eye waves made the Ao Mei, who is also a beauty, a little unbearable.

"Okay~

It's just that Gu Wei doesn't come to the United States often, and next time he comes over, I can call you along. ”

Ao Mei didn't have any excuses, so she had to say so.

"No problem, who can say for sure what will happen in the future.

Elizabeth in love, since it's not your boyfriend, then you can take out the good things and share.

Maybe there will be more happiness in this way! ”

Scarlett curled the corners of her mouth, as if she said meaningfully.

To be honest, Scarlett, who got married and had children, is not comparable to Ao Mei at all, no matter what tiger and wolf words come when she opens her mouth.

She also enjoys the feeling of teasing Ao Mei.

Capital.

Oriental Ginza outside Dongzhimen Street, where Wu Jing and Xie Nan's homes are located.

The big hit of the first part of [Wolf Warrior] can be said to have made Wu Jingda make a lot of money, but because he had already planned to shoot the second part, he didn't dare to squander the money he made, but was ready to continue to invest in his own movies.

After all, in his plan, the investment cost of [Wolf Warrior 2] is far better than the first part, although the good brother Gu Wei has promised that no matter how much money he will pay, he will pay for him.

But if his movie is possible, he still hopes that he can invest a little more, so that if the box office is a big hit, he can make more money, and if the film fails, other investors can also lose less.

In the study, Wu Jing took a pen to write and draw in a notebook, and the tail of the pencil made him bite out a few tooth marks, scratching his head from time to time, looking like he was constipated and difficult to give birth.

The door opened, and Xie Nan came in with a plate of cut watermelons.

Looking at her husband's appearance, she said with some amusement:

"If you can't write, let someone else write, and it's harder to watch you write than to let you go out and fight with people."

"Hey~ That's for sure, how easy it is to fight, it's too difficult to write!"

Wu Jing sighed, put down the pen, picked up a tooth of watermelon and ate it.

"But if I can't write it, I have to write it, how can my own film be in the hands of others?

No one else can write the story I want.

Take your time, you see that [Wolf Warrior 1] is also my own screenwriter. ”

Wu Jing said while eating.

He has been practicing martial arts in a martial arts school since he was a child, and let him go up the mountains and down the river, fighting with real swords and guns, there is no problem at all.

But it was really a little difficult for him to hold the pen, and Wu Jing always felt that the pen in his hand was heavier than the submachine gun in the army.

However, I have to admire that although he is a martial artist, Wu Jing can really settle down and learn a lot of things for his movie dream.

When filming [Wolf Warrior 1], he wrote the general story by himself, and only after he finished it did he find a professional screenwriter to help him revise and polish it.

He agreed that others could not write the story he wanted to make, so although it was difficult and difficult, he always insisted on doing it himself.

"Okay, since that's the case, you can grind slowly, anyway, there's no hurry, time is there."

Xie Nan didn't care, the success of [Wolf Warrior] made Wu Jing's situation in the industry change 180 degrees.

And there is no shortage of money at home now, so let him do whatever his husband wants.

After saying that, I got up and was going out.

"Hey~ daughter-in-law, don't go!"

Wu Jing shouted.

"What's wrong?

I'm not bothering you with writing the script, and I'm going to cook. ”

Xie Nan, who stood up and was about to go out, asked with some confusion.

Wu Jing walked behind Xie Nan and put his hands on her arms.

"Daughter-in-law, sit down, I have something to ask you~"

Xie Nan was pressed to the chair by Wu Jing and looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"That's right, in fact, I've thought about the general story of the second part of [Wolf Warrior], but I don't know what to do if there's a problem?"

"You say~"

Xie Nan looked at him and asked.

"In the second part of the movie, there is a rich second-generation character, who is considered the second male lead, I want to invite Gu Wei to play, you say"

Xie Nan listened to her husband's words and knew what he meant.

Her brow furrowed.

"Male No. 2, I'm afraid Gu Wei can't agree.

As far as I know, since his debut, he has been playing the leading role in movies and TV series, and he has never been a match.

Even his first work [Embroidered Spring Knife] filmed in the circle is also the male lead.

There have been two times when I was not the protagonist, and it was a friendly cameo in a few shots.

It's like "Pancake Man" directed by Dapeng.

I heard that Zhang Yimou's [Great Wall] asked Gu Wei to play a supporting role, but he refused, and later went to play a cameo role because of his relationship. ”

After Xie Nan finished speaking, Wu Jing became even more depressed.

"I know what you said, that's why I figured it out.

The budget of [Wolf Warrior 2] is much larger than that of the first part, and if it still gets 500 million box office, it may be a problem to return to the cost.

But if Gu Wei can join, then there is no need to worry about the box office. ”

After [Monster Hunt] surpassed [Super 7] and won the first place at the box office in film history, Gu Wei's total box office performance exceeded 4.5 billion.

[Tang Detective], [Left Ear], and [Monster Hunt] were box office hits for three consecutive movies, with the least 800 million and the most 2.6 billion.

Now everyone in the film and television industry regards him as a box office elixir, and everyone believes that as long as he joins a movie, it will inevitably make a lot of money.

There's also some metaphysics involved.

These people in the entertainment industry are actually the most superstitious.

After all, many times when movies are big hits, TV series are big hits, and even stars are not popular, it depends on God's will.

There is no one-size-fits-all standard.

As the saying goes, "small fires rely on support, and big fires rely on life".

Sometimes you are thinking about filming a TV series, and you think about everything, but you are ridiculed by the group for various reasons.

On the contrary, the small supporting roles in the play, which are not considered to be the three men, exploded in popularity for a summer, and rose to the top.

Sometimes luck can't be stopped, luck may be gone yesterday or the top stream, today collapsed the house and found no such person.

Gu Wei's current state is a bit like Tom Cruise in Hollywood when he was young, and all Hollywood companies want to cooperate with him.

Whether it's an action movie or a romance movie, as long as Pete plays it, it's a big hit.

These film and television companies in internal entertainment are the same as Gu Wei, people believe that now is the peak of his fortune, like Cheng Long when he was filming [Rush Hour], Zhou Xingchi when he was young, unstoppable.

"Don't worry about it first, you tell me the whole story of the second part, and the proportion of the role of this rich second-generation male number two."

Xie Nan comforted her husband.

Wu Jing verbally told Xie Nan about the story he planned to shoot, or the story of the wolf warrior "Leng Feng".

Compared with the first part, the second part has a stronger personal heroism.

"Good guy, you're completely China's version of 'Rambo'!"

Xie Nan's first feeling after listening to it was that this was not the actor who went to heaven and earth at every turn in American blockbusters.

"Hehe~ Hollywood can shoot 'Rambo', we can naturally also shoot 'Wolf Warrior', the Chinese are worse, better than them!"

Wu Jing said a little second-class.

Xie Nan held his chin with one hand and thought about it.

"I'll give you two suggestions, first, greatly reduce the role of the second male in the movie, and make him a soy sauce player, so that if you invite Gu Wei to come over and make a cameo, the success rate will be very high.

Friendship cameo, it can't delay him for long, just like [Great Wall] and [Pancake Man], borrow his name.

He is still an investor in your movie, and I believe that Gu Wei will give this face. ”

Wu Jing frowned when he heard this, it was okay to do this, but it was a bit against his original intention.

Originally, Gu Wei was invited to join just to let him carry the box office, but he could borrow a little bit of strength by changing it to a friendly cameo.

"And the second?"

Wu Jing looked up at his daughter-in-law and asked.

Xie Nan smiled slightly.

"The second is completely opposite, adding drama to him, widening the role of the second male lead, and making the whole movie a two-male protagonist pattern.

is like Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei in [Infernal Affairs].

Uh~ This is not accurate.

It should be said that it is like Vin Diesel and Paul Walker in [Fast and Furious].

It started out as a little conflict, but then it became a partner and even a family member.

Cooperate to defeat the villain, we are family!

Now Hollywood is in this mode, you see Marvel's hero linkage, [Avengers].

In this way, there is both personal heroism and friendship, and the movie will definitely be a big hit! ”

Xie Nan said to herself, and as soon as the words fell, Wu Jing picked her up at once, lifted her high and turned around several times.

"Ahhh

Wu Jing, you're crazy! What kind of wind to smoke? ”

While scolding, he slapped Wu Jing under him with his hand.

"Haha~ Daughter-in-law, you are so talented, why didn't I think of this idea, it solved my problem perfectly.

And you're right, now it's not popular for heroes to go it alone, and the audience loves to see partners and cooperation.

The development trend of Hollywood over the years clearly tells us how to shoot. ”

Wu Jing put down his daughter-in-law and was as happy as a child.

Xie Nan straightened his messy hair and looked at Wu Jing.

"You can think about it, [Wolf Warrior] was originally the absolute protagonist, but now you have become one of the protagonists.

And with Gu Wei's double male lead, I'm afraid the audience's attention will be on him. ”

"Alas~ What is this, my most important identity in the [Wolf Warrior] series is not the actor, but the director.

As long as the movie can be a big hit, I can even stop acting. ”

Wu Jing said freely.

"Okay, I suggest you get the script done as soon as possible and invite Gu Wei as soon as possible.

He is so popular now, don't want to participate in the show when the time comes, but there is no schedule.

Although it is only August now, I estimate that Gu Wei's schedule for the second half of the year will definitely be full, and it is difficult to say whether there will be in the first half of next year. ”

Xie Nan finally reminded.

"Let's do it~"

Wu Jing happily picked up his daughter-in-law's side cheek and kissed it.

"Ah, Wu Jing, you're endless!

It's all saliva in my face~"

Xie Nan wiped the saliva left on his face and complained angrily.

"Daughter-in-law, you are really my virtuous helper, my Wu Jing married you as a daughter-in-law, and God can't stand it if you don't succeed!"

Wu Jing said happily with a big grin.

"Okay, go get your job, don't say these words to coax me, it's all old husband and wife."

Xie Nan looked happy and said insincerely.

"I'm going to write it!"

Wu Jing, who was about to turn around and take the pen, hesitated.

"Forget it, probably since the story is there, I'm going to find Liu Yi and Dong Skirt now, let's create it together, and with their help, the script will come out soon."

Liu Yi is a professional screenwriter of Changchun Film Studio, and Dong Skirt writes about the military, and the best-selling military works such as [Bullet Marks] and [Bingfeng] are his works.

The screenwriters of the first part of [Wolf Warrior] are Wu Jing and them.

Wu Jing is responsible for the main line of the story, and the two of them are responsible for enriching the storyline and making a professional script.

In the end, the first part of [Wolf Warrior] was successful and very popular.

Now in the second part, Wu Jing naturally wants to go to them.
