Chapter 310 wearefamily
The next morning, Gu Wei appeared on the set on time.
This trip to New York for filming, no matter what I do, the bottom line is not to delay the filming of the movie.
Unlike his previous roles in other crews, in the [Tang Detective] series he is both the director and the starring role. As long as he is not around, the crew will have to shut down, so one day cannot be missed.
“Bao Qiang, Xiao Pan, morning!”
"Morning~ Director~"
After greeting the leading actors with a smile, Gu Wei took the shooting schedule handed over by the assistant director.
What we are filming this morning is a scene where a trio of detectives are looking for clues at a murder scene in the Hudson River. There is no big scene and there are no other actors, so it is relatively simple.
Soon everyone put on makeup, gathered their mood and started the official shooting.
“Caucasian woman loses kidney.”
"The yellow man lost his heart and can't find any clues!"
"If it is found, the case will be solved."
Concentrate on work, time always flies by.
There is no need to worry about other things, only the scenes and lines of Gu Wei, Wang Baoqiang, and Xiao Pan.
The three of them are absolutely powerful.
Not to mention Gu Wei, although Wang Baoqiang and Xiao Pan are both comedians, their acting skills are at the absolute top among domestic male stars.
Wang Baoqiang has already proved himself as a true actor with "Blind Well" and "Hello, Mr. Tree".
Although Xiao Pan has no achievements yet, Gu Wei knows his strength.
The future Golden Rooster Best Actor, the "Manslaughter" series of movies allowed him to fully demonstrate his acting skills.
Gu Wei discovered a very interesting thing in the entertainment industry. Many comedians have very good acting skills, especially sketch actors, such as Zhao Benshan and Wang Guang. When placed in the film and television industry, their acting skills can kill every one of them. They are all actor-level.
Of course, this is not absolute. Just like in the cross talk show "Deyun Society", apart from Mr. Yu Zhan, there are too many actors who have poor acting skills.
Basically, several scenes were played over once. To be on the safe side, Gu Wei made another one.
At noon, the crew were all having dinner, and Gu Wei was no exception.
Their lunch meal was ordered from a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown.
It’s the same as domestic box lunches, with rice and stir-fried vegetables.
It is said that his food tastes very good. In addition to residents in Chinatown, many Americans come here to taste it.
However, when Gu Wei was eating, he always felt that the food was too sweet. Although it was Chinese food, it was still somewhat different from domestic restaurants.
Putting a piece of Kung Pao Chicken into a bowl, the cell phone placed aside rang.
Gu Wei picked it up and saw that it was a message from Aomei.
“The performance last night was perfect and I am very satisfied.
I'm going back to Los Angeles in the afternoon. I know you're very busy filming now, so I won't bother you too much.
But next time you come to the United States, I hope you can take the initiative to contact me.
I will take you to see the beautiful scenery here when the time comes, and I will definitely give you a different experience! "
After reading the message and glancing at the Audemars Piguet watch on his wrist, Gu Wei smiled.
"I never feel sad about separation, because I think reunion It's the most romantic thing in the world.
I hope to meet the beautiful and unique Miss Elizabeth Olsen again in a beautiful season and a beautiful place next time! ”
After sending the message, turn off the phone and continue eating.
In the VIP terminal of the airport, Omei, wearing a white shirt, tight jeans and a casual outfit, was sitting on the sofa.
She held her phone and read the message Gu Wei replied several times, with a bright smile on her face.
Scarlett, who was sitting opposite, was wearing a light blue dress. Wearing a dome sun hat, the whole person looks very lazy
It is no coincidence that they are together, they are both going back to Los Angeles to join the team [Avengers 3].
Scarlett looked at Olsen’s radiant and smiling face and asked with interest:
“Didn’t your little boyfriend come to see you off?”
Of course Aomei knew who she was talking about, so she raised her head and put down her phone.
“What little boyfriend, he is a good friend of mine.
His shooting schedule in New York was very tight and he couldn't miss a single day. "
"Oh?
What a good friend~"
Scarlett's smile was a little playful.
"To be honest, this is the first time I have seen such a handsome Asian.
Before, I always thought that Eastern men were like Bruce Lee and Jack Chen, flexible little men, short and powerful!
After a quick visit yesterday, I felt that your friend is very tall, almost similar to Chris, but even more handsome than him.
This kind of appearance is not common in Hollywood.
And he looks very tender, like a high school student. ”
The full name of Chris in Scarlett’s mouth is Chris Evans, the actor who plays Captain America in Marvel.
"The Oriental looks younger, but he is indeed three years younger than me."
Olson explained that she was a little proud when she heard the other party praise Gu Wei.
Scarlett smiled and leaned forward slightly.
"Would you mind introducing your good friend to me?
I think I would like to get to know this special oriental man!"
Olson looked at her in surprise.
"Scarlett, whatever you want to do, you are already married!"
"So what if you get married, I have been living apart from Roman for a long time, just because of the children. , everyone hasn’t really made up their mind yet, they are just playing their own way now.”
She leaned back with a nonchalant expression on her face.
Scarlett publicly announced her relationship with French journalist Romain Darric in 2012. They later became engaged, gave birth to children, and got married until now. If there are no accidents, the two will officially announce their divorce in 2017.
"Gu is not an ordinary person. He is very famous in China and is a top superstar there.
When I met him at London Fashion Week, he was the global spokesperson of Louis Vuitton and worked with Mr. Bernard of the LV Group has a good relationship.
And he is a billionaire, not the kind of little man who can be summoned. ”
Olson is afraid that Scarlett will do it because of Gu. There was a misunderstanding about Wei's appearance and age, so he quickly explained to her.
“Haha~ Elizabeth, you misunderstood, I really just want to get to know this friend.
Now that you have said so much, I am more interested in him. "
Scarlett chuckled.
The charm exuded from the rolling eyes made Omei, who is also a beauty, a little bit intolerable.
"Okay~
It’s just that Gu Wei doesn’t come to the United States often. Next time he comes over, I can ask you to come with him. ”
Aomei had no excuse, so she had no choice but to say this.
“No problem, who can say for sure what will happen in the future.
Dear Elizabeth, since I am not your boyfriend, you can share the good things.
< br>Maybe there will be more happiness this way!”
Scarlett said with the corner of her mouth raised, seemingly meaningfully.
To be honest, Scarlett, who is married and has a child, is not comparable to the Austrian girl. No matter what kind of nonsense she opens her mouth, she will say it.
She also enjoys teasing Omei.
Beijing.
Wu Jing and Xie Nan’s home is in Oriental Ginza outside Dongzhimen Street.
The huge sales of the first part of [Wolf Warrior] can be said to have made Wu Jing a lot of money, but because he had already planned to shoot the second part, he did not dare to squander the money he earned. , but is preparing to continue investing in his own movies.
After all, in his plan, the investment cost of [Wolf Warrior 2] is far higher than that of the first film, even though his good brother Gu Wei has promised to pay him no matter how much money he has.
But if possible, he still hopes that he can invest more in his own movie, so that if it is a hit at the box office, he can make more money, and if the movie fails, other investors can lose less.
In the study, Wu Jing was writing and drawing in a notebook with a pen. The tail of the pencil made several teeth marks on his face. He scratched his head from time to time, looking like he was suffering from constipation and dystocia. .
The door opened and Xie Nan came in with a plate of cut watermelon.
Looking at her husband’s appearance, he said somewhat funny:
"If you can't write, let others write. Watching you write is more difficult than asking you to go out and fight with others."
"Hey~ That's for sure. Fighting is easy, but writing is too difficult!"
Wu Jing sighed, put down his pen, picked up a tooth of watermelon and started eating it.
“But I have to write even if I can’t write it. How can my own movie be written by someone else?
Others can’t write the story I want.
Take your time, you see [Wolf Warrior 1] was also written by me. "
Wu Jing said while eating.
He has been practicing martial arts in a martial arts school since he was a child. He was asked to go up mountains and rivers and fight with real swords and guns, and there was no problem at all.
But it is really difficult for him to hold the pen. Wu Jing always feels that the pen in his hand is heavier than the submachine gun in the army.
But it has to be admired. Although he is a martial artist, Wu Jing does it for his own. Movie dream, but I can really settle down and learn a lot of things
When filming [Wolf Warrior 1], he wrote the rough story himself, and only after it was completed did he find a professional screenwriter to help him revise and polish it.
He unanimously believed that others could not write the story he wanted to shoot, so despite the difficulties, he always insisted on doing it himself.
"Okay, in this case, just grind it slowly. There is no rush anyway, there is plenty of time."
Xie Nan didn't care either, the success of [Wolf Warrior] made Wu Jing in The situation in the industry has undergone a 180-degree change.
And the family is not short of money now, so I can let my husband do whatever he wants.
After saying that, he stood up and left. "Hey~ Wife, don't leave!"
Wu Jing shouted.
"What's wrong?
Why don't I bother you with writing the script? Besides, I have 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, please sit down, I have something to ask you~"
Xie Nan was pushed onto the chair by Wu Jing and looked at him with confusion.
“That’s right, I’ve actually thought about the general story of the second part of [Wolf Warrior], but there’s a problem I don’t know what to do?”
"You said~"
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 would like to invite Gu Wei to play the role, what do you think?"
Xie Nan also listened to her husband's words. Got what he meant.
She frowned.
"The second male lead, I'm afraid Gu Wei won't agree.
As far as I know, since his debut, he has been playing leading roles in movies and TV series, and has never been a supporting role.
Even in his first film "Xiuchundao", he was the male protagonist
The two times he was not the protagonist were guest appearances in a few scenes. >
Just like "Pancake Man" directed by Da Peng.
I heard that Gu Wei was asked to play a supporting role in Zhang Yimou's "The Great Wall", but he refused. Later, he made a cameo role because of a favor. "
After Xie Nan said that, Wu Jing became even more frustrated.
"I know everything you said, so I thought of a way.
The budget of [Wolf Warrior 2] is much larger than that of the first film. If it still takes 500 million at the box office, it may be a problem to make back the money.
But if Gu Wei can join, then there is no need to worry about the box office. ”
After "Monster Hunt" surpassed "Fast 7" to take the first place in the box office of film history, Gu Wei's personal total box office score exceeded 4.5 billion.
[Tang Detective], [Left Ear], and [Monster Hunt] were three consecutive box office hits, with the lowest being 800 million and the highest being 2.6 billion.
Everyone in the film and television industry now regards him as a box office elixir. Everyone believes that as long as he joins a movie, it will definitely make a lot of money.
This also involves some metaphysics.
These people in the entertainment industry are actually the most superstitious.
After all, most of the time, whether a movie is a hit, a TV series is a hit, or even a star is popular, it all depends on God's will.
There is no standard that is the same everywhere.
As the saying goes, "a small fire depends on support, a big fire depends on life."
Sometimes you put all your effort into filming a TV series and have everything thought out, only to be ridiculed for various reasons.
On the contrary, the minor supporting role in the drama, which is not even considered among the three male actors, became popular all summer long and rose to the top.
Sometimes when luck comes, it cannot be stopped. When luck goes away, you may have been top-notch yesterday, but today you will find no such person.
Gu Wei's current state is a bit like Tom Cruise when he was young in Hollywood. All Hollywood companies want to cooperate with him.
Whether it is an action movie or a romance movie, any movie starring Tom will be a hit.
These domestic entertainment film and television companies are also looking after Gu Wei. People believe that now is the peak of his fortune, just like Cheng Long when filming "Rush Hour" and Zhou Xingchi in his youth, they are unstoppable.
“Don’t worry, please tell me the whole story of the second part and the proportion of the role played by this rich second-generation male lead.”
Xie Nan comforted her husband.
Wu Jing verbally told Xie Nan about the story he planned to shoot. It was still the story of the Wolf Warrior "Leng Feng".
Compared with the first part, the personal heroism in the second part is stronger.
"Good guy, you are completely the Chinese version of 'Rambo'!"
After hearing this, Xie Nan's first feeling was that this is like the one in the American blockbuster that always goes to heaven. The leading actor in the land?
"Hehe~ Hollywood can make 'Rambo', so we can also make 'Wolf Warrior'. The Chinese are so bad, why don't you be better than them!"
Wu Jing said in a somewhat middle-of-the-road manner.
Xie Nan held his chin with one hand and thought for a while.
“I’ll give you two suggestions. First, greatly reduce the role of the second male lead in the movie and make him a soy sauce actor. In this way, if you invite Gu Wei to come and make a cameo, the success rate will be very high.< br>
A friendly guest appearance won’t delay him for long, just like [The Great Wall] and [Pancake Man], lending him his name
He is also an investor in your movie, and I believe Gu Wei will give him face. "
Wu Jing frowned after hearing this. It's okay to do this, but it goes against his original intention.
Originally, Gu Wei was asked to join because he wanted him to carry the box office, so he changed it to friendship. How much power can be gained from a guest appearance?
“What about the second one? "
Wu Jing looked up at his wife and asked.
Xie Nan smiled slightly.
“The second one is completely the opposite. Add more scenes to him, widen the role of the second male lead, and make the whole movie into a double male lead structure.
It’s like [无码] Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei in "The Road".
Um~ This is not accurate.
It should be said that they are like Vin Diesel and Paul Walker in "Fast and Furious".
What started as a little conflict turned into partners and even family.
Work together to defeat the villain, wearefamily!
Hollywood is following this model now. Look at Marvel’s hero collaboration, [Avengers].
With both personal heroism and partnership, the movie will definitely be a hit! "
Xie Nan was talking to himself. As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Jing picked her up, held her high and spun her around several times.
"Ahhh!
Wu Jing, are you crazy! Why are you so angry?"
While cursing, he slapped Wu Jing under him with his hand.
“Haha~ Wife, you are so talented. Why didn’t I think of this idea? It solved my problem perfectly.
And you are right, it is not popular now. The hero fights alone, and the audience loves to see partners and cooperation
The development trends of Hollywood over the years clearly tell us how we should shoot. "
Wu Jing put his wife down, as happy as a child.
Xie Nan tidied up his messed up hair and looked at Wu Jing.
"You But think about it, [Wolf Warrior] you were originally the absolute protagonist, but now you are one of the protagonists.
And with the double male lead Gu and Wei, I’m afraid the audience’s attention will be on him. ”
"Oh, what does this mean? My most important identity in the [Wolf Warrior] series is not the leading actor, but the director.
As long as the movie can sell well, I don't have to act."
Wu Jing said calmly.
“Okay, I suggest you finish the script 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 but there is no schedule.
< br>
Although it's only August, I estimate that Gu Wei's schedule for the second half of the year will definitely be full. It's hard to say whether there will be any for the first half of next year. "
Xie Nan finally reminded.
"Bata~"
Wu Jing happily picked up the side of his wife's face and kissed her.
" Oh, Wu Jing, are you done yet?
The saliva is all on my face~"
Xie Nan wiped the saliva on his face and complained angrily.
"Daughter-in-law, you are really my good wife, I, Wu If Jing marries you as his wife, God won’t be able to bear it if you don’t succeed! "
Wu Jing grinned and said happily.
"Okay, go get your work done. No need to say these coaxing words, we are already an old married couple. ”
Xie Nan looked happy and spoke insincerely.
“I’m going to write right now!”
Wu Jing, who was about to turn around and pick up a pen, hesitated.
“Forget it, now that the story is ready, I will go find Liu Yi and Dong Qun now, and we will create it together. With their help, the script will be out soon.”
Liu Yi He is a professional screenwriter at Changchun Film Studio, while Dong Qun writes military novels. Best-selling military novels such as "Bullet Marks" and "Bingfeng" are all his works.
The screenwriters of the first part of [Wolf Warrior] are Wu Jing and the two of them.
Wu Jing is responsible for the main line of the story, and they are responsible for enriching the storyline and producing 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 has to look for them.
