Chapter 235 Cake for You
[Xiuchundao 2] is about to start filming, and other main actors except Gu Wei have also gathered in the capital.
On March 4, the crew held a grand launch conference titled "Iron Bone Sword Soul, Tempered by Blood" at the Beijing Palace Hotel.
Director Lu Yang and leading actors Gu Wei, Yang Mi, Zhang Yi, Lei Jiayin, Zhang Tianai and Li Yuan were present.
Xin Zhilei, who played "Ding Baiying" in the original version, was replaced by Zhang Tianai.
This was of course due to Gu Wei. During the preparation stage of the crew, after Gu Wei got the script, he recommended Zhang Tianai to Lu Yang to play "Ding Baiying". Later, through the audition, he found that she could indeed grasp this role.
Zhang Tianai has a heroic appearance and is full of aggression. As long as he doesn't stretch his hips in the later action scenes, there is no problem playing the role of "Ding Baiying".
With the reputation of Gu Wei as the male protagonist and investor, Lu Yang simply didn’t find anyone else to audition and directly settled on Zhang Tianai.
On the same day, the crew exposed the video of preparations for the film's launch, revealing the two years of hard work and polishing of the film; they also released a concept poster with a passionate comic style, announcing that the film will be held in the ancient city of Taierzhuang, Zaozhuang, Shanxi Province on April 10 Officially started.
On the National Day holiday in 2012, the movie "Xiu Chun Knife" brought a strong revival of martial arts to the Chinese film industry. It gained recognition from the industry with its word-of-mouth counterattack and box office success.
Director Lu Yang is known as a "genius director" for his low-cost, high-efficiency and sophisticated shooting.
After two years of absence, Lu Yang has once again sharpened his sword with his new work [Xiu Chun Dao II: Shura Battlefield], reinterpreting the six words "Feiyu Sui, Xiu Chun Dao".
At the press conference, the leading actors gathered Lu Yang, Gu Wei and Yang Mi in the middle, each holding a long sheathed knife for the media in the audience to take photos.
Director Lu Yang revealed that "Xiuchundao 2" is the prequel of "Xiuchundao 1", which is a story that happened in the time and space before the first part.
This made the reporters very curious. When asked about the specific plot, Lu Yang avoided talking about it.
Because the film has not yet been launched, the main creators have not revealed much about the characters.
The new heroine Yang Mi revealed to reporters that the role she plays in the play this time is "very mysterious and complex", and the identity of the character is consistent with her own hobbies.
This aroused strong curiosity among the media, but Gu Wei did not reveal much about his role. He just smiled and said, "I also wear a flying fish suit and an embroidered spring knife."
< br>Several newly added actors did not escape reporters’ questioning.
Zhang Yi said with a smile:
"I haven't read the script yet, but the director said they would give me the Feiyu suit after the filming. This is the happiest thing for me, so I was deceived."
Zhang Yi's revelation caused a stir at the scene. laughter.
Lei Jiayin said sincerely:
"I have never acted in a costume movie. It has been a long time since I last acted in a movie, so I am very excited. I will start training tomorrow. The director will Set a goal and lose 20 pounds!”
Zhang Tianai, who spoke last, broke the news:
"I play the role of a 'girl-beater' in the movie. I have been training for two days at the director's request. It is very hard, but I am still very happy and looking forward to it."
The final arrangement of the main creators on stage They stood in a row, with their knives half unsheathed, and ended the press conference with a handsome and unrestrained group photo.
After the press conference, Gu Wei chatted a little more with Zhang Yi. Needless to mention the main creators of the crew, Yang Mi and Zhang Tianai, Lei Jiayin was once an actor under Gu Wei. He played "Brother Bei" in his movie "Tang Detective", and they are very familiar with each other.
Only Zhang Yi, Gu Wei met for the first time.
There are not many people that Gu Wei admires in the film and television industry, Zhang Yi is one of them.
He has an average appearance, some even say he is ugly, and his family background is average. His first girlfriend, who he has been with for many years, broke up with him because he was poor.
I didn’t come from any major. I only studied in the acting class of the Drama Academy in Harbin for half a year, and then I became a soldier for 10 years.
Because of this condition, Zhang Yi relied on his love and hard work for acting to gradually reach the position of the best actor.
The most rare thing is that after he became successful, he has always maintained a low-key attitude towards life. He has never had any scandals and does not make money from variety shows. He just works honestly in movies.
If you come to him, he will accept good movies, and he will also accept good TV series. There is no pretense about not acting in TV series after acting in movies.
I have always positioned myself as an actor, an actor who loves performing.
There are not many actors like Zhang Yi in the entertainment industry, and even fewer actors with his fame and status are as good as him.
"Teacher Zhang, this is the first time we have met. I have seen both [Soldier Assault] and [My Captain, My Regiment]. You did a great job. I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future!"< br>
Gu Wei said to Zhang Yi with a smile.
"The movie will start shooting in a few days, and I hope you will take care of me, Mr. Gu Wei."
Zhang Yi could feel Gu Wei's kindness toward him. As the saying goes, "Give me a peach, and give me a jade in return." Gu Wei was so enthusiastic, so naturally he would not lose his etiquette.
After the press conference, Gu Wei first took Zhang Tianai back to the company.
“Xiao Ai, you must pay attention to the training of [Xiuchundao]. Although you are only the second female lead in it, this role is very brilliant. As long as you perform well, your film career will be smooth. A lot.
I believe that many women-beating scenes will come to you."
On the way back to the company, Gu Wei said to Zhang Tianai. In fact, if you don't look at the cast, Gu Wei feels that the role of "Ding Baiying" is more brilliant than "Beizhai" played by Yang Mi.
Of course the premise is that you must play well.
“I understand, I will definitely work hard.”
Zhang Tianai is wearing a small white suit today, paired with the same white trousers, with beautiful black hair, facial features Bright and elegant, she has the style of a strong woman in the workplace.
However, when she talks to Gu Wei, she is always weak and cautious, which is completely opposite to her appearance and grooming, and there is a sense of contrast.
"Do you have time tonight? I want to have dinner with you?"
Zhang Tianai asked.
Gu Wei looked at her expectant eyes and said sheepishly:
"Xiao Ai, I'm so sorry, I have made an appointment with someone in advance today."
"Okay~"
Zhang Tianai said a little disappointed.
Gu Wei looked at her and frowned slightly.
After a while, the two of them arrived at the company.
Gu Wei called Zhang Tianai to the office, and he took out a small, delicate box from behind his desk.
“This is a New Year gift I specially prepared for you. It’s a little late, don’t mind, I was too busy and never had time.”
Zhang Tianai took it over with some surprise and opened the exquisite small box. Inside was a Tiffany gold and sapphire bracelet, which looked dazzling and noble.
“Do you like it?”
Gu Wei asked with a smile.
“Yeah, I like it!”
Zhang Tianai nodded happily.
Taking the bracelet out of the box, Gu Wei carefully put it on Zhang Tianai's fair wrist.
The dazzling gold and the brilliance of sapphire combined with Zhang Tianai’s slender and white wrist are extremely beautiful.
"It looks like a good match for you. I was right."
Gu Wei played with Zhang Tianai's little hands and looked around.
“Thank you for your gift~”
Zhang Tianai showed a happy smile to Gu Wei.
"Why are you being polite to me? You are my employee now. It is normal for a boss to care about his employees."
Gu Wei said with a gentle smile.
“By the way, after our film [Xiuchundao 2] is finished, the company will have a very important movie project called [The Richest Man in Xihong City].
This movie will It is one of the two most important projects of our company this year. My expectation is that its box office will exceed that of my film "Tang Detective". When the time comes, you will directly join the team as the female lead
After "Xiu Chun Dao 2" and "The Richest Man in Xihong City" are released, you will almost be able to firmly occupy the front line, and you don't have to worry about future film and television resources. ”
Gu Wei draws big cakes for Zhang Tianai.
Unlike other bosses, Gu Wei’s cakes are always the last to be eaten, and they are absolutely delicious.< br>
“I will listen to you and follow the company’s arrangements! ”
It is entirely because of Gu Wei that she has reached this point. Now that she has been given so many high-quality resources, of course she can do whatever she is asked to do.
In Zhang Tianai's heart, Gu Wei is the truly noble person she has met in her life.
The only pity is that they broke up because of their own reasons.
This has become the only knot in Zhang Tianai's heart.
So much so that the image of Gu Wei in her heart now is very complicated, including liking, complaining, admiration, dependence, and gratitude
After all, there are several boyfriends and girlfriends who still care about each other after breaking up. He would spare no effort to help the other party, and besides, it wasn't Gu Wei's fault when they broke up, it could only be said to be a fate.
There is no use thinking too much. In short, Zhang Tianai feels that life is pretty good now. He has become a big star that he could not even imagine before. His future is bright and he does not want to ask for more.
