Chapter 452: Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chicks under His Command

"Senior sister still has talent in this area, I believe that as long as she exercises a little, she will definitely be a generation of great directors in the future!"

Gu Wei's face did not change and boasted.

"Stop, I have a few brushes I know, if it weren't for Lao Rao's help this time, maybe I would have to mess up the movie for you.

I still think being a screenwriter is more suitable for me than making movies."

Han Jianu has a very clear understanding of herself, she knows that her talent as a director is not high, and this filming [Take My Brother Away] is mainly due to Rao Xiaozhi's efforts.

And she has been pampered since she was a child, and she can't bear the hardships of being a director, and she is too lazy to spend too much effort on one thing, so even if she has made a movie now, she may not try again in the future.

"It's a pity."

Gu Wei shook his head, and then looked at Rao Xiaozhi.

"I heard that Director Rao's previous film will be released next month?"

Rao Xiaozhi smiled.

"Yes, it's my film debut, called [Hello, Maniac], which premiered on December 30."

"It will be released on the same day as Director Wen Muye's [Love Saint], then I wish Director Rao's new film a box office hit!"

"Thank you, thank you, I'm a small-budget comedy, I don't expect it to be a big hit, I'm satisfied if I can get back to basics"

"Director Rao is too modest."

Han Jianu on the side couldn't get used to the politeness of the two of them, so she interrupted.

"Xiaowen's previous movies are about to be released, how is the script I wrote?"

"The director has already started preparations, and I also plan to tell you when my sister comes back this time, and it is tentatively scheduled to be officially launched at the beginning of next year."

Han Jianu nodded, compared to the director's "Take My Brother Away", she actually put more effort into the screenwriter's "I Am Not the God of Medicine".

"By the way, Director Rao, how did you think about the incident I mentioned to you when I went to visit the crew before?

I know that Director Rao is a truly talented director, and [Wei Mingxia] is also eager to find talents, so I hope that we can work together for a long time in the future to shoot more and better film works.

In terms of conditions, you can rest assured that the contract I am giving is definitely the best in the industry."

Gu Wei looked at Rao Xiaozhi with a smile on his face, and invited him again.

Rao Xiaozhi glanced at Han Jianu beside him, and Han Jianu also gave him an encouraging look.

"Thank you, Mr. Gu, thank you for giving me the opportunity to direct the movie, and thank you for taking me so seriously.

To be honest, if I don't agree to myself now, I feel a little ignorant of how to lift.

Then I hope you will take care of you in the future."

After Rao Xiaozhi finished speaking, the smile on Gu Wei's face became brighter and brighter, and then he stretched out his hand to Rao Xiaozhi.

"Director Rao, welcome to join [Wei Mingxia], I hope we will cooperate happily in the future."

"Happy working together!"

The two shook their hands, and the matter was settled.

"Gu Wei, do you have to thank me, last time you left, I gave Lao Rao a persuasion, and he made up his mind to join your company."

"Haha~

Thank you, sister.

You just came back today, and I'm going to arrange a table for you to wash the dust.

Now it's a double happiness! ”

Gu Weile said hehehe.

With the addition of Rao Xiaozhi, coupled with Wen Muye in the company, he is a gathering of Wolong and Phoenix Chicks, at least the movies produced by the company will not have to worry about no director taking over in the future.

That night, Gu Wei, Han Jianu, and Rao Xiaozhi called Wen Muye and Guo Fan, a total of five people to have dinner.

Among them, Guo Fan is a good friend of Han Jianu and Rao Xiaozhi, and Wen Mu is also Han Jianu's college classmate, but Wen Mu is not familiar with Rao and Guo, and now Rao Xiaozhi is about to become Wen Muye's colleague, plus as soon as this meal is introduced, everyone has become acquaintances.

Several people ate and drank, and Wen Mu also communicated with Guo Fan and Rao Xiaozhi, and they were like-minded with each other.

Guo Fan and Rao Xiaozhi were born in 80, Wen Mu is also a little younger in 85, everyone is in their 30s, they belong to the youngest generation of directors, and they are the most outstanding people of the younger generation.

After chatting, I became more and more impressed by each other's knowledge of directing, and the relationship gradually became familiar.

The three of them chatted, and Gu Wei was talking to the daughter of the Han family next to him, and he couldn't snub the senior sister.

From Han Sanping to the daughter of the Han family, Gu Wei has always felt that the father and daughter are his nobles.

When he was still a student, Han Sanping nodded and agreed to invest in his first movie [Embroidered Spring Knife], and used the influence of China Film to find Liu Yifei to star.

Later, when he was preparing the first part of [Detective Chinatown], when everyone was not optimistic, Han Sanping also helped and participated in the investment.

After getting to know Han Jianu, she not only sent herself the script of "I Am Not the God of Medicine", but also introduced Rao Xiaozhi, a very famous new generation director in the future, and indirectly brought him the project of "The Wandering Earth".

So now although Han Sanping has retired, Gu Wei will come to visit him with gifts every New Year's Day, and Han Jianu is also a real friend on his side.

"Director Guo, how are the formalities prepared by China Film? When can I come and sign a contract? ”

At the dinner table, Gu Wei asked Guo Fan.

"It's all ready, if there is nothing on Mr. Gu's side tomorrow, we can sign the contract together."

"Haha~ No problem, then set tomorrow!"

Gu Wei smiled and clapped.

"What contract?"

Han Jianu looked puzzled, she had never heard Guo Fan say that she had an intersection with Gu Wei, and she thought that the two of them met for the first time today.

Guo Fan smiled and explained to her.

"Didn't I take the task of China Film before, and have been preparing to make that big-budget sci-fi film."

"I know, [The Wandering Earth], you've been preparing for almost two years~"

Han Jianu's eyes rolled.

"Are you planning to find Gu Wei as the leading actor?"

"Haha~ That's right, I did invite Mr. Gu.

That's not the main thing, though. ”

Guo Fan said with a smile.

"That's it."

"I only gave a budget of 200 million for my sci-fi film, but I actually calculated that the shooting cost was as high as 400 million.

For the remaining 200 million, Mr. Gu has decided to invest in me. ”

Hearing his words, not only Han Jianu, but even Rao Xiaozhi on the side couldn't help but look at Gu Wei in surprise.

This is 200 million, not 2 million or 20 million, even the richest man is two small goals, and the lottery jackpot of 5 million has to be won 40 times in a row.

Gu Wei can take it out without hesitation and vote for a domestic science fiction film, this kind of courage is also rare in the entire entertainment industry.

Only Wen Mu was present and did not react much, he has signed in [Wei Mingxia] for more than a year, and at the same time, he has also contacted many old employees of the company, and learned some information about the approximate income of the company's various projects from their mouths, he knows how much money his boss can make, and how terrifying the profitability of this company is.

As far as he knows, in the entertainment industry now, there is no company that can make as much money as [Wei Mingxia].

Top private film and television companies like Huayi, Guangguang, and Bona, even if the company is larger, have more projects every year than [Wei Mingxia], but in terms of pure profits, they can't catch up with [Wei Mingxia].

After he joined the company, when looking at the company's previous works, he found that all the works shot by the company from the beginning of its establishment are high-quality, whether it is a TV series or a movie, the difference is only to earn more and earn less.

This situation seems almost impossible in the eyes of other film and television companies.

Later, he learned that all the film and television dramas produced by the company were made by the boss Gu Wei before they could start filming.

This also made him admire Gu Wei's vision more and more.

"The investment of 200 million yuan is still invested in domestic sci-fi films, Gu Wei, your courage is really this."

After Han Jianu was taken aback, she gave Gu Wei a thumbs up and said.

"First of all, I am very optimistic about Director Guo Fan's ability, and I believe that he can make this domestic sci-fi blockbuster well; Secondly, I like Teacher Liu Cixin's; Finally, it is also to support the development of domestic science fiction films.

The amount of money is the least important."

Gu Wei held Guo Fan for a while, and pretended to be a little forced.

"Awesome, awesome"

Han Jianu admired.

"By the way, Mr. Gu, the last time we met, I invited you to be the leading actor in the movie, how did you think about it?"

Talking about this, Guo Fan took the opportunity to mention the male protagonist's invitation again.

Even if there is no shortage of investment now, he still can't forget Gu Wei's role as the male lead, and he really covets Gu Wei's strong box office appeal.

With him as the male lead, Guo Fan was more than half down-to-earth when he filmed the movie.

The corners of Gu Wei's mouth curled slightly.

"'Liu Qi' I took it, I took 200 million, it makes no sense that I can't contribute to my own movie"

"Great!"

Guo Fan clapped his hands and smiled.

"Mr. Gu, I toast you, I hope we will cooperate happily in the future!"

"It's a pleasure to work with."

At the end of the dinner, it was already late, Gu Wei sent the three directors who had drunk a little too much to the car, and watched Han Jianu leave, and he also got into the nanny car.

After eating a meal, Wen Muye, Guo Fan, and Rao Xiaozhi drank a lot, and Gu Wei was about the same, but his alcohol consumption was much higher than that of the two of them, even if the last three were already a little drunk, Gu Wei still didn't feel too much.

Han Jianu only drank two glasses of red wine the whole time, and she was still very sober when she left.

Palm Springs International Residences.

The living room was dimly lit, and Naza was curled up on the sofa in pink cotton pajamas, with her hands on her thighs, watching the variety show on the TV opposite.

She wore a pale yellow headband, and her washed face was pink and fair, but the occasional yawning made her look sleepy.

The sound of the door opening was heard, and Naza's eyes, which were about to be closed, suddenly widened.

happily got off the sofa, put on his slippers and ran to the door.

"Why don't you sleep at such a late hour?"

As soon as Gu Wei entered the door, he was greeted with a big hug, and he scratched Naza's little nose and asked.

"I'm going to wait for you to come back, if you don't come, I'll fall asleep long ago."

When I sent you WeChat in the afternoon, didn't you say that you could come over in the evening, of course I have to wait for you"

Nazha hugged Gu Wei and rubbed her little face against his chest.

"Later, I didn't mean to socialize, I should have come back late, so you don't have to wait for me"

"I don't, I'm going to wait for you."

Gu Wei shook his head helplessly, it was the hardest thing to accept the grace of the beauty, what could he do, he could only do his best.

Reaching out to open Naza's fair and tender face, he kissed her face with one hand.

After a long time, the lips of the two parted, and Nazha opened her confused eyes and looked at Gu Wei, her lips slightly opened.

"Let's go back to our room."

Gu Wei didn't talk nonsense, picked up the other party, and strode towards the bedroom.
