Beijing.
The golden sunshine of the afternoon filled the bedroom, and a white kitten lay lazily on the clean and soft wool carpet.
The room was very quiet and the sunshine was very warm. The sleeping cat heard some noise and opened his eyes a crack, but found nothing. He yawned, turned over and was about to fall asleep again.
Suddenly a hand reached out and grabbed the kitten's neck and picked it up.
The cat was stunned for a moment and was about to struggle, then fell into a familiar embrace. It cried coquettishly and closed its eyes again, enjoying the caress of its owner.
"This drama is going to be broadcast so soon."
Liu Yifei, who was sitting by the window, was petting a cat in one hand and holding a pad in the other, and muttered something when she saw some news.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in~”
The door opened and Liu Xiaoli walked in with a plate of fresh lychees.
"I bought it when I went to the supermarket in the morning. It tastes very good."
As she said this, she placed the fruit plate within reach of her daughter.
Liu Yifei took one and peeled it open, revealing the crystal clear lychee flesh inside.
"Well, it's very sweet~"
Mother Liu smiled and sat down opposite her.
“Are you tired from filming in the past few months?”
“Fortunately, although the filming period of [Menghualu] is long, the daily shooting tasks are not compact”
“Do you feel How is this drama? ”
“It’s very good. The story is my favorite type. If it weren’t for it, I wouldn’t have been able to take it.
The cast and crew are very good in their acting and production. Very sophisticated”
"Where are the co-actors, are they getting along well?"
Liu Yifei nodded: "We are getting along well, Liu Yan and Lin Yun have a good relationship with me.
When we finished filming and left the group I also gave them LV bags as gifts."
Speaking of this, she seemed to think of something and suddenly laughed: "Speaking of which It's funny. The actor who plays Ouyang Xu in the crew is actually a fan of mine. In the play, he is Chen Shimei who abandoned "Zhao Pan'er". As soon as the director shouted "ka", he immediately changed into a star-chasing fan."
Liu Xiaoli listened. Liao also smiled: "For a big star like my daughter, who is so beautiful, it is normal for her to have some fans in the same industry.
As for the male protagonist, is it going well for you to work together? "
After eating a lychee, Liu Yifei spit out the core and put it aside. She thought for a moment and said, "Chen Xiao is quite professional and has good lines and acting skills.
But we don’t have much communication outside of filming.”
“Huh? Is he such a big name? "
Liu Yifei waved her hand: "No.
During the filming, his wife came to visit the team from time to time. It was quite awkward for us to meet. Later, Chen Xiao and I stopped communicating much outside of filming."
"His wife? "Liu Xiaoli didn't react for a moment.
"Chen Yanxi, she also played the role of "Little Dragon Girl" and was scolded quite miserably," Liu Yifei reminded.
"Oh, that little dragon with chicken legs. Female"
Liu Xiaoli usually surfs the Internet, and when Chen Yanxi was scolded, netizens frequently compared her with Liu Yifei, so she knew this very well.
"Her appearance is not good and she is scolded by the audience, and it has nothing to do with you."
"That's what I say, but there will always be some grudges."
"I remember [Menghualu] "You must have invited Gu Wei for this drama. If only he could come and act, you would have more fun filming it, and you could also ensure the success of this drama," Liu Xiaoli said with some regret.
Liu Yifei’s mouth curled up slightly when she heard her mother’s words.
"Mom, do you still remember the modern drama I told you about some time ago that was looking for me?"
"I remember, it was called [Go to a windy place].
Didn't you say you liked that book very much?"
"Yes, I have already decided to take on this drama, the male lead. Most likely it's Gu Wei."
"Really?"
Liu Yifei nodded: "Gu Wei's new drama was launched in Hengdian a few days ago. I mentioned it when I went to visit him. This drama"
"If that's the case, it's really good news." Liu Xiaoli was very happy after hearing what her daughter said.
Liu Yifei has returned to the field of TV dramas in the past two years. At present, one drama has not been aired, so it is still unknown whether she can maintain the good results of the year.
If you can cooperate with Gu Wei, you don't have to worry about this problem. With his fame and popularity, the TV series he participates in will undoubtedly be a hit.
“When will [Go Where the Wind Is] start filming?”
“It will be next year at the earliest. We have to consider Gu Wei’s schedule. He has a Hollywood movie at the end of the year,” Liu Yifei replied .
Liu Xiaoli sighed: "Gu Wei's fame has basically reached the top in China. After this step, he can become a real international superstar!
By the way, ask him when he has time and invite him to your home. Let’s have a meal and thank him.”
“Thank him for what?” Liu Yifei was a little confused.
“My Silly Girl, [The Wind] is just a small-budget pastoral drama. If Gu Wei didn’t care about you, could you take it?”
Liu Yifei was speechless: "Even so, there is no need to say thank you, we have been friends for so many years.
And it’s not like he’s never been to our house before.”
“Just do it if I tell you to. No matter what the relationship was like before, it’s always right to move around more. It’s not weird to be polite to others. "
Liu Yifei nodded reluctantly: "Okay, but I guess he won't have time recently.
He is currently filming in Hengdian, and there is also a movie released during the National Day holiday, so it is a busy time.”
The promotion of [Changjin Lake] had already started when the movie was being filmed. After all, it is a war masterpiece with an investment of over 1 billion, and the publicity and distribution cannot be overemphasized
In October last year, the film officially released photos of the pep rally and officially announced the film's starring cast.
The most attention-grabbing one is the high-profile announcement by Gu Wei and Wu Jing to join [Changjin Lake]. This is also the third collaboration between the two after [Wolf Warrior 2] and [The Wandering Earth].
The familiar setting of two male protagonists, from master and apprentice, father and son to brother, the reunion of Gu Wei and Wu Jing has made the majority of movie fans look forward to [Changjin Lake].
Since the filming of the film was completed in July this year, the official has successively released pilot posters, super-long specials, the first trailer, character close-up posters and many stills.
On August 30, the crew released the latest trailer.
The signal flares slipped under the night, and all the officers and soldiers of the 7th interleaved company took turns to report the count. Wu Wanli, played by Gu Wei, braved the hail of bullets to rescue his comrades.
A tense and exciting scene raised the audience's expectations.
The next day, [Changjin Lake] officially announced that it would be released on the National Day schedule on October 1st, and issued a release announcement.
“They exchange youth and no regrets for the safety of mountains and rivers. They are the heroes of the people, they are the backbone of China, and they are the loveliest people.
Today’s prosperous world is just as you imagined! ”
There seems to be a tacit understanding. After Bona's high-profile official announcement of "Changjin Lake" was finalized, within 24 hours, domestic films such as "Five Boys Who Dive into the Water" and "Pipilu and Lu Xixi: Canned Villains" were released. They followed up and set the schedule. As of September 10, 11 movies have been announced to be on the eleventh schedule, and this year's National Day schedule has suddenly become crowded.
Among all the movies, [Changjin Lake] and the third part of the "National Day Trilogy" [My Fathers and Me] are undoubtedly the seed players competing for the box office championship.
The two movies have the same main theme and both have stars together.
[Changjin Lake] There are three major directors, Chen Kaige, Xu Ke, and Lin Chaoxian, and Gu Wei and Wu Jing attract popularity.
"My Fathers and I" continues the director's platter format of this series. Wu Jing, Zhang Ziyi, Xu Zheng, and Shen Teng are each responsible for the shooting of a story unit, and they are equally full of highlights.
At the same time, this film is also the first big screen work directed by Shen Teng and Zhang Ziyi.
September 20, Yanqi Lake Conference Center in Beijing.
The 11th Beijing International Film Festival held its opening ceremony here.
On the red carpet, the crew of [Changjin Lake] made a surprise appearance, including directors Chen Kaige, Xu Ke, and Lin Chaoxian, chief producer and screenwriter Huang Jianxin, producer Yu Dong, and starring Gu Wei and Wu Jing, Zhu Yawen, Li Chen and others made a group appearance.
"Director Chen, did you do this on purpose or did you not receive the notice?"
After the red carpet, everyone entered the venue, where Gu Wei and Wu Jing were chatting together.
Wu Jing glanced at Brother Chen Kai who was chatting with others not far away: "I heard that his wife arranged the clothes.
Director Chen is a face-loving person and must want to stand out. Myself."
The main creators of [Changjin Lake] just walked on the red carpet. Everyone including Yu Dong, Xu Ke, and Lin Chaoxian were all dressed in black suits. Only Brother Chen Kai didn't know what to think about wearing it. got a blue suit.
Walking among this group of people, it’s like being surrounded by stars.
Logically speaking, everyone’s outfits on the red carpet for this kind of event should either be uniformly arranged or decided in advance.
[Changjin Lake] The team came here simply to walk on the red carpet for promotion. They had ordered all black suits in advance. A group of male directors and artists were all dressed in black, which was very stylish. No one expected that Brother Chen Kai would be on the scene. Be different.
Everyone saw it, but no one could say anything.
After walking on the red carpet, Gu Wei couldn't help but complain to Wu Jing.
"Chen Hong is also uncountable. It doesn't matter that we are actors. She makes Director Xu and Director Lin look like they are a head shorter than her husband."
"Forget it, Director Kai Ge is a face-saving person. Clearly, I didn’t look at Yu Dong and he didn’t say anything at first.”
Gu Wei shook his head and stopped paying attention to Brother Chen Kai.
“I thought your movie [My Fathers and Me] would not be able to catch up with the National Day release”
Wu Jing started filming [My Fathers and Me] only after finishing [Changjin Lake] , it only takes more than three months from the start of filming to the release of the movie.
"Unlike [Changjin Lake], the post-production of [My Fathers and Me] was relatively simple and fast. It basically took more than a month to shoot, and the film was released in another month."
Gu Wei smiled and said: "So you are very busy during this period. Two movies will be released together during the National Day holiday. It’s all about promotion.”
“There’s nothing I can do if I catch up. No matter how busy I am with promotion, it won’t be more difficult than filming.
And my main focus should be on [me and me]. My parents] over there, after all, you are here at [Changjin Lake]." Wu Jing turned to look at Gu Wei, raised his eyebrows and smiled.
“You, remember to treat me to dinner later!”
"No problem!
We can go out and get together after today's event. Call Li Chen and the others together, and I'll get two bottles of good wine!"
Wu Jinghao said proudly.
Gu Wei was a little moved, but thought of something and shook his head.
“I have to fly to Shenzhen tonight to attend the [Greater Bay Area Music Gala] tomorrow night.”
"Well, let's get together again in a few days after the premiere of [Changjin Lake]!"
On the evening of September 21st, it is the Mid-Autumn Festival on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month.
The Chun Cocoon Gymnasium of Shenchengwan Sports Center is brightly lit and crowded with people.

At 20:15, the party officially started.
Jing Tian, Zheng Kai, Guan Xiaotong, Chen Feiyu, Li Zhiting, Guo Caijie and others took the stage to sing the opening song [Tianya is now together].
None of them were professional singers, and their singing was only half-open. To be honest, the effect was mediocre. Fortunately, the atmosphere was good.
【Sweet and beautiful! 】
【These people don’t sing very well, can’t they just let professional singers sing? 】
[I feel that Li Zhiting’s singing is pretty good, better than others.]
[This party lasts three hours, and Gu Wei’s program is at the end, so some people have been waiting~]
[Looking forward to Gu Wei’s new songs, I hope he can participate in more music shows like this]

After the opening song, Lan Yu, Deng Chao, Nicholas Tse and other hosts took the stage.
For this kind of party, even the identity of the host is very particular. Lan Yu represents the official, Deng Chao represents the mainland entertainment industry, and Nicholas Tse represents the entertainment industry of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

Headed by Huang Xiaoming, more than 20 stars including Yao Chen, Liu Ye, Du Jiang, Jing Bairan, and Hua Chenyu successively took the stage.

That’s right, the “god of the Chinese music scene” had no chance to perform at the first [Greater Bay Area Music Gala] and could only sing out lyrics during the chorus.
In the dressing room backstage at the party.
"Brother Wei, did you write this song specifically for this party?"
Deng Ziqi has already changed into her performance clothes and put on makeup. Her long wavy hair is cascading down her shoulders. The tube top design of her upper body clothes makes her even more sexy.
She was very surprised when she learned that she was going to sing a duet with Gu Wei, and she was even more surprised when she got the song demo.
Because this is a new song that she has never heard before, and the melody is beautiful and beautiful.
Thinking of the rumors that Gu Wei would write a song for every large party he attended, she admired Gu Wei's talent even more.
“I wrote this song earlier, just in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival Party, and the song has something to do with the moon, so I took it out”
"That's awesome. I like this song very much. It's really nice!
Brother Wei, do you still have a lot of songs that have been written but not released?" Deng Ziqi asked curiously.
Gu Wei thought for a while and nodded: "A few, maybe, not many."
"I really hope you will release an album soon and release all the new songs."
Gu Wei smiled and said: "I remember the last time we met [Running Man], you said you wanted me to release an album to put the old songs together, and now you want me to release an album of new songs. Isn't it a bit much to ask for?"
"I'm sorry, Brother Wei, that you can't invest more time in music even though you are so talented." (End of Chapter)
