Chapter 353 You still want to make money for me
After the movie started, the main creators sitting in the front row felt a little uneasy. Although they all thought their film was the best, they could not really get the attention of the audience. No one is 100% sure about liking anyone.
Everyone is always paying attention to the reaction of the audience present. When it comes to the point of laughter, they are concerned about whether the audience is happy or not, and whether the actors are happy or not.
Gu Wei, who was sitting in the middle, had no such concerns at all. Although he had watched the movie as soon as it was completed, it was equally exciting to watch it again now. He was completely immersed in the plot. When we get to the funny part, we laugh along with the audience, which feels a bit heartless.
Two hours passed quickly. [The Richest Man in Xihong City] made the audience laugh from beginning to end. Finally, the lights in the theater came on, the subtitles began to scroll on the big screen, and the audience burst into laughter. Prolonged applause.
After the premiere ceremony, Gu Wei exchanged a few words with the two directors, Shen Teng and others before preparing to leave.
Zhang Tianai looked at his figure with some reluctance.
“According to the publicity plan specified by the promoter, you have to work hard to follow the crew for a while.
When the box office stabilizes, you can rest if you have nothing to do.
You also have the script for [Wolf Warrior 2]. I’ll have time to study the characters carefully when I get back. We’ll have to work together when the movie starts shooting in two months.”
Gu Wei explained with a gentle expression.
“Hmm~”
Zhang Tianai nodded.
After coming out of Wanda Cinema, Gu Wei took a car directly to the CCTV studio building. The Spring Festival Gala screening was also one of his main tasks on this trip.
Today was a makeup rehearsal, which completely overlapped with the Spring Festival Gala, so it took a little longer.
In fact, most of the time was spent waiting backstage. When it was Gu Wei's turn to sing, it was very quick and it was over in a few minutes.
It was already very late when we came out from CCTV.
Gu Wei did not go home, but came to Palm Springs International Apartment.
Take the elevator to the 28th floor and press the password to enter.
The lights in the room were dim. Gu Wei changed his shoes, took off his coat, hung it up, and walked inside.
The TV in the living room was still playing a program quietly. On the sofa opposite, Nazha was wearing a pale pink bear pajamas, leaning on the armrest and falling asleep.
Gu Wei walked up to her. Naza's face was slightly raised, her head resting on the back of the sofa, her mouth slightly open, and a little drool dripping from the corner of her mouth. She looked cute and funny while sleeping.
It seemed that he had been watching TV to wait for Gu Wei, and then he fell asleep on the sofa because he was too sleepy.
Gu Wei shook his head with a smile.
He lowered his head and kissed Nazaa gently on her fair face, then slowly picked her up and walked towards the bedroom.
Nazha, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by Gu Wei's hug.
After being placed on the bed in the bedroom, she opened her eyes slightly and looked at Gu Wei's figure, and said in a sticky voice:
"You are back."
< br>Gu Wei sat on the edge of the bed and helped her cover the quilt.
“Go back to your room and sleep when you feel sleepy. It’s easy to catch a cold if you sleep on the sofa~”
"But I wanted to wait for you to come back, but I couldn't help it. I fell asleep watching TV without knowing when~"
Gu Wei chuckled and lowered his head to kiss her smooth forehead.
"Go to sleep, I'll go wash up and come back to accompany you"
"Hmm~"
Nazha closed her eyes.
After a while, she felt a familiar and warm body enter the bed, she shrank her body, stretched out her arms to hug her tightly, like a docile kitten, with a happy smile on her face, and soon her breathing eased into her body. Sweet dreams.
The next morning, Nazha woke up early from her bed and found herself huddled in Gu Wei's arms.
Open your eyes, move back a little, and look up to see Gu Wei's perfect jawline, fair and delicate skin, and beautiful and handsome facial features.
Gu Wei's eyes were closed, his breathing was even and long, and he was obviously still asleep.
Nazha didn't move, just tilted her head and stared at Gu Wei's face quietly for a while.
As a former Beijing Film Academy beauty and now a popular star, Nazha has seen a lot of things over the years and has seen a lot of beauties and handsome guys.
It turns out that in school, there are a lot of handsome guys in the performance department, with different styles: sunny, feminine, little puppy, and big wolfdog.
She had just entered school. When she first met Gu Wei, although he was also very handsome, in a place like school where handsome guys gathered together, he was considered to be above average. He was not the kind of handsome man who would be unforgettable at first sight. .
But after she broke up with Gu Wei, every time she saw him again, she felt that his temperament had changed slightly. Obviously his face shape and facial features had not changed. At most, his skin had gotten better, but it was inexplicable. More and more attractive.
After the first part of Gu Wei's "Embroidered Spring Knife" was released, he gained a certain degree of fame. His appearance also made him completely out of the entertainment industry at Beiying Film and Television, and he was named the school idol of Beiying Film.
Everyone knows that there is such a good-looking acting student in Grade 11.
Now, every time she looks at Gu Wei at such a close distance, she feels that he is really good-looking and cannot get enough of him.
When you are with him, you don’t have to do anything. Just looking at his face makes you feel happy and happy.
The warm winter sun gradually rises from the horizon, and the city is like a giant awakening from a big dream, awakened by the gentle sunshine.
Gu Wei's eyelashes trembled slightly while he was sleeping, and then he slowly opened his eyes.
Nazha's beautiful face appeared in front of him, but the expression on her face was dull and she didn't feel very smart.
"Good morning, Nazha!"
Gu Wei greeted with a smile.
“Ah, good morning”
Nazha, who was thinking about something in a daze, reacted.
Then he twisted his body slightly and his face slowly turned red.
“Are you acting like this so early in the morning?”
Nazha said strangely.
“I had such a good rest last night, it’s good for my body to get up early and move around~”
Gu Wei said matter-of-factly.
Originally, he had to leave immediately after returning to Beijing for a day. He was in a hurry, so he originally planned to go home and rest for one night.
When Nazha found out, she had to ask Gu Wei to come find her.
Gu Wei calculated the time and agreed, but he couldn't come in vain.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and gave Nazha a look.
Nazha rolled her eyes at him charmingly and lowered her head.
The plan for a year begins in spring, and the plan for a day begins in the morning.
Exercising early in the morning can mobilize the body's sympathetic nerves in advance, which has a better effect on improving the work spirit and efficiency throughout the day, making thinking more agile. Some studies have found that getting up early to exercise has a higher efficiency in fat metabolism and is a better time to lose fat. It may be due to the consumption of energy of the body when sleeping at night, which reduces the glycogen content in the body. Getting up early to exercise can make the body Use a greater proportion of fat to provide energy.
At the same time, aerobic training at a certain intensity in the morning can also improve the human heart and lung function, increase lung capacity and oxygen uptake capacity, improve the pumping function of the heart and the elastic reservoir function of blood vessels, and enhance The heart's ability to contract, slow down the resting heart rate, and increase the heart's ejection fraction.
Getting up early and exercising can also promote development, enhance bone density and muscle strength, and have a good effect on delaying aging.
The above is all the knowledge that Gu Wei spread to Naza during breakfast.
He preached to her about the benefits of getting up early and exercising in a serious manner, letting Nazha know that he was thinking about her health just now and had good intentions.
“I’m impressed, you’ve given yourself so many excuses!”
Nazha picked up the milk at hand and took a sip, listening to Gu Wei’s nonsense while eating.
“When will you go home?”
After chatting for a while, Gu Wei asked casually.
"I originally planned to leave yesterday, but when I knew you were coming back, I asked my assistant to help me reschedule to tomorrow."
Gu Wei nodded.
“By the way, has your agent told you about the TV show that the company gave you?”
“He told me two days ago, and I haven’t read the script yet. ”
Naza thought for a while and said.
“If possible, you’d better read the original novel, which will help you better understand the characters.
Although this film is not produced by our company, it is a big investment The costume fantasy drama is the most popular genre now. If you shoot it well, the results will not be bad.”
Hearing what Gu Wei said, Nazha’s little face wrinkled.
“There are so many words in the original work. I feel dizzy just reading it. Can I just read the script?”
"Isn't it okay to go home during the New Year these days? You can finish reading it in these days."
"Okay, I'll give it a try"
Seeing Gu Wei's insistence, Nazha had no choice but to refuse. He agreed willingly.
Gu Wei looked at her funny, took a small steamed bun and put it in Nazha's bowl.
"You are working with Lu Han, a top student who is very popular now. He is a singer and dancer, and he has never studied acting seriously. If you don't study the role carefully, by then you, a graduate of Beijing Film Academy, will It doesn’t sound good to let an amateur compete in acting.”
"Understood, I will work hard!"
After thinking about it, she understood what Gu Wei said made sense, and Nazha also took it to heart.
Although her acting skills are indeed not very good, she does not want to wear the label of "Beijing Film's shame".
Seeing Nazha like this, Gu Wei was relieved. He had done everything he could, and the final effect was out of his control.
The drama he told Nazha is called [The Legend of the Chosen One]. It is a big IP fairy tale fantasy drama jointly produced by Tengxun Video, Penguin Pictures, Yuewen Group and Weimingxia. , is the beginning of Tengxun Video’s path to self-produced dramas.
As for the male protagonist, Teng Xun Video really liked Gu Wei, but he really didn’t have time, so he found Gu Wei’s replacement in the industry, Lu Han.
Speaking of which, Lu Han and Li Jiaheng should really thank Gu Wei. Many of the film and television resources in their hands this year fell to them only after Gu Wei refused.
Of course they know this too.
Lu Han has a good relationship with Gu Wei, and he doesn’t care about these things. Li Jiaheng is in pain and happy. He is very happy with the resources he has received, but he is a little bit worried when he thinks that it was his turn because he didn’t want them. Not willing to give in.
【Choose the Sky】Gu Weiyuan has also heard of this TV series. The reputation is not very good, but the broadcast results are very exaggerated and it is considered a hit.
The role of the heroine is definitely a very good resource for Nazha, which is much better than playing some small-produced idol TV series.
Farewell to Nazha in the morning, Gu Wei took a car to the company. He was on a flight back to Xiangshan in the evening. He could also handle some of the company's accumulated affairs during the day.
The 2015 full-year financial statements of several companies under Gu Wei's name were placed on his desk.
He has gained a lot in the past year.
As his fame has grown, his personal income has also increased. What is even more gratifying is that the scale of several companies under his name has become larger and larger, and the profits from various investments and self-produced film and television dramas have been astonishing.
In 2015, a total of 3 movies invested by [Wei Ming Xia] were released, including [The Return of the Great Sage], which is currently the second highest box office box office film in mainland China, a small-budget blockbuster youth film [Left Ear], and "Left Ear", which is known as the pinnacle of martial arts films. Written by [Xiu Chun Dao 2].
Among them, "The Return of the Great Sage" has the highest box office, with 1.758 billion, and "Wei Tianxia" accounted for 60% of the investment share, and the final box office share was more than 400 million.
【Left Ear】Gu Wei is a shareholder with remuneration from the film, which accounts for one-third of the total investment after conversion. The total box office of the movie is 804 million. Gu Wei also has a small goal after acquiring it.
As for the last "Xiu Chun Knife 2", it has just been released now, with a total box office of 1.03 billion. "Wei Ming Xia" investment accounted for 30%, and it is expected to have a box office share of 120 million, but this money has not been received It will take some time.
In addition to movies, the TV series invested and broadcast by his company this year include "A Smile Is Alluring" and "Nirvana in Fire".
Among them, [Wei Wei]’s income is astonishing.
Blueberry Channel’s first-round exclusive broadcast rights were purchased for 105 million, while Tengxun Video’s online exclusive rights were sold for 180 million.
There are also second and third rounds of TV broadcasting rights, and copyright fees from Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries, totaling 150 million.
There is also 72 million in product placement in the TV series itself.
[A Smiling Smile Is Alluring] The total revenue brought to Gu Wei Company was 507 million. After excluding the cost of 50 million, the net profit was 457 million.
It seems that the money earned from the TV series is exaggerated, but Gu Wei knows that compared to [Wei Wei]'s broadcast performance, this profit is really not much.
Not to mention those TV series that sold 500 million or 800 million copyrights a few years later, let’s talk about the ancient TV series many years ago that made a lot of money.
For example, the popular TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan" was broadcast in 2011. After its popularity that year, various domestic and foreign broadcast rights and copyright fees were sold for nearly 600 million within two years.
Wait until 2018, seven years later, the first batch of copyrights expired, and the production company signed a ten-year contract with the broadcast platform. Until 2027, there will be an average of more than 10 million per year. When the copyright fees came in, netizens started shouting wildly after hearing the news. A good TV series can really last a lifetime.
So, truly high-quality TV dramas have a very strong ability to continue to make money. Movies like [Wei Wei] with such high quality and popularity will bring continuous profits to the company in the future.
In addition to [Weiwei], [Nirvana in Fire] also made a lot of money. Due to the short launch time, it only sold the first-round TV broadcast rights and the copyright rights of video websites, for a total of 376 million.
[Wei Tianxia] accounted for 20% of the investment and received 75.2 million.
However, many subsequent copyrights are still in the negotiation process. [Nirvana in Fire] is so popular, it would not be surprising to have another revenue of 200 to 300 million in the future.
In addition to the income from investment in these film and television dramas, Gu Wei's personal income is also very high, mainly from the endorsement income some time ago, with a one-time income of 410 million.
The rest is the income of the brokerage company. Gu Wei was a little surprised when he saw the detailed data table.
In the brokerage company, Nazha, who has become popular this year, and Zhang Tianai, who is relatively well-known, are mainly making money. The remaining Li County can be considered as balanced, and Peng Yuchang, Zhang Songwen, and Meng Ziyi are still in a state of borrowing money from the company.
However, Naza and Zhang Tianai also made a lot of money during this year, mainly from endorsements and commercial performances.
Gu Wei took the financial report, thinking about the charm with Nazha this morning, and considered what gifts to buy them.
He was wondering if it was a bit too stupid to sleep with others and let them work for him to make money.
