Chapter 386 Wolf Warrior 2: Two Jedi
Gu Wei never expected that there would be such a pie-in-the-sky thing.
When you are sitting in the company, [White Night Chasing], a hit drama with a high reputation in the future, will be delivered to your door.
But if you think about it carefully, it is not impossible.
In the entertainment industry, novels may be small or big, but there are only a few large companies that have the ability to invest in and produce TV series.
Some only produce high-quality self-produced dramas and do not invest externally, such as "Sunshine at Noon".
Some have limited themes and only shoot idol dramas or TV dramas starring big stars, like "Huan Rui".
[White Night Chase] has invested nearly 70 million, and it is estimated that only a few major video platforms can put it out in one go at this time.
After all, this film won’t be a star, and it can only get a filming license for a web drama. The original space and time is exclusively invested and produced by Youku Video.
But now because of Pan Yueming, director Wang Wei came to see Gu Wei first. He will definitely not let this high-quality project get away.
It can only be said that good people are rewarded. When he worked with [Tang Detective] before, Gu Wei thought that Mr. Pan was a nice person and had been helping him over the years. He never thought there would be any reward.
He has many things to do. Gu Wei didn't pay much attention to TV series like "White Night" that were famous but not suitable for him to act in. The result that should belong to him ended up in his pocket.
Sitting in the office and thinking about it.
In "You Are My Glory", the male protagonist "Yu Tu"'s boss and good friend, "Guan Zai", the chief designer of the Institute of Aerospace Research, is also played by Pan Yueming. I have to send him the script later.
This role doesn’t have too many roles, and it’s very simple. It will be enough to wait for the crew to start shooting in the second half of the year so that Teacher Pan can come over and shoot for a few days. It won’t take him too long.
As for other roles, Gu Wei doesn't have to worry too much. Lin Yu is the director, so she will naturally choose the most suitable role.
May 1st.
The banquet hall of Wangjing Hotel in Beijing, where the crew of [Wolf Warrior 2] held a launch conference today.
Director Wu Jing has been preparing for this film for more than a year. He has flown to Africa several times, and all the shooting locations at home and abroad have been selected. It can be said that he has done all the work that can be done in the early stage.
“Brother Jing, do you feel like you have tanned recently?”
The press conference had not yet begun, but Gu Wei and Wu Jing were chatting quietly at the side of the stage.
“I am running around here and there every day, and I have been in Africa for a long time, so tan spots are normal.”
Wu Jing’s skin color at this time was tanned, and his teeth looked very sharp when he smiled. white.
“For our show, I went to the gym after work, and now my muscles are really strong.
How are you doing now? I told you to exercise hard before, so that you can show off when the filming begins. Body shots! ”
He stretched out his hand and pinched the muscles on Wu Jing's arm. He was indeed stronger, but he was the least afraid of Gu Wei compared with his figure.
“Hey, Brother Jing, you don’t need to tell me this. I dress to look thinner but take off my clothes to look more muscular. The muscles on my body are definitely beyond your imagination. You will know when we are filming”
"Really or not?
If the effect is not good by then, I will delete the part where you show off your figure?"
Wu Jing looked Gu Wei up and down. With a look of distrust on his face, Gu Wei looked thin in his clothes, with no obvious muscles on his body.
Gu Wei looked at him and smiled, without further explanation.
Zhang Tianai, who was standing next to them, listened to their chat with an expression on his face that he was hesitant to speak.
She really wanted to tell Wu Jing that Gu Wei had a really good figure, with well-defined eight-pack abs and perfect chest muscles. She could testify to this.
After a while, the press conference began.
As the director and starring role, Wu Jingwen holds the C position, but most of the media's focus is on Gu Wei.
"I would like to ask Director Wu, when filming the second part of [Wolf Warrior], how did you come up with the idea of inviting Gu Wei to join?"
Wu Jing smiled and glanced at Gu Wei beside him.
“Gu Wei and I have known each other for a long time and are very good friends.
When filming [Wolf Warrior 1], he was the biggest investor in my movie.< br>
When I was preparing for the second part, I was writing the script at home, but I was still not satisfied no matter how I wrote it.
Later, when my wife was chatting with me, she said, why don’t you make the second movie a two-male protagonist, just like in the Hollywood blockbuster [Fast and Furious], with a bald guy and a handsome policeman, so the audience will definitely love watching it. .
So I had an idea and quickly completed the script.
Then when I saw the other male protagonist in the script, he was completely designed for Gu Wei.
Maybe when I was writing the script, the image of Gu Wei appeared in my mind.
Then I took the script and invited him. He was hesitant at first, but he couldn't resist me and kept stalking him, and finally won him over! ”
After Wu Jing finished speaking, the staff and media in the venue burst into laughter.
"Then what made you accept Director Wu's invitation, Gu Wei?"
"Brother Jing already said that he was the one who stalked me, and I couldn't bear to lose face. I have no choice but to agree," Gu Wei said pretending to be aggrieved.
There was laughter again.
The interview went on for a while. In addition to the two male protagonists, Zhang Tianai, the heroine in this men's drama, also attracted much attention from reporters.
After the release of [The Richest Man in Xihong City], Zhang Tianai has been contacted by several big-name endorsements. In the past two months, whether it is online press releases or offline and online advertisements, she has appeared in The frequency is very high and the heat is very high.
Now she is working on a movie with Gu Wei and Wu Jing, and everyone is also paying close attention to her.
After a while, all the parts of the press conference were completed, and Wu Jing gestured to the staff on the sidelines.
On the background board directly behind the stage, a huge poster fell from the sky.
Above, Gu Wei and Wu Jing were wearing camouflage military uniforms, holding different styles of guns, standing back to back, with determined expressions on their faces.
Gu Wei's originally handsome face was painted with a few streaks of paint, showing his wild charm.
Wu Jing clenched his fists tightly and held a threaded bullet in his mouth.
The background of the two of them is a battlefield filled with bullets, tanks, helicopters, and artillery.
There are a few big words written directly above [Wolf Warrior 2: Jedi Two]!
As soon as the poster was unveiled, the media's flashbulbs flashed non-stop.
"I will first take the crew to the Golden Beach in Bincheng to shoot the scene of "Leng Feng" at the beginning of the movie. You will go directly to the scrap steel factory in Zhangjiakou in a few days.
Follow Group B Shoot over there first, I'll be there later."
After the press conference, Wu Jing arranged the itinerary for Gu Wei.
[Wolf Warrior 2] The story takes place in Africa, but in fact most of the filming locations are still in China, and only a small part of the shots need to be shot in Africa.
Although Gu Wei's version of [Wolf Warrior 2] is very different from the original version in terms of details, the theme has not changed and it still tells the story of the evacuation of overseas Chinese.
The plot continues from [Wolf Warrior 1]. "Leng Feng" played by Wu Jing had to take off his military uniform because of violation of discipline and came to Africa alone to develop.
"Lin Wei" played by Gu Wei is a second-generation rich man and an avid military enthusiast.
He came to Africa to open a factory because he also wanted to experience the feeling of live ammunition.
In the first half of the movie, Wu Jing took his godson to see his mother because his godson "Xiao Hei"'s mother worked in Gu Wei's factory.
He met Gu Wei fatefully. Wu Jing's cold temperament aroused great interest in Gu Wei. After several provocations, he was easily subdued by Wu Jing.
So Gu Wei began to stalk him and insisted on becoming a disciple, hoping that Wu Jing could teach him fighting, shooting and other military tactical skills.
Wu Jing was finally moved by Gu Wei's sincerity and began to teach him all the skills that a real special forces soldier would know.
The two have since become a master and apprentice relationship.
After a period of practice, Gu Wei's various abilities improved rapidly, and he was recognized by his master Wu Jing.
Wu Jing felt that he was a natural special soldier and promised him that after returning to China, he would recommend Gu Wei to his former leader to join the army.
Gu Wei was very happy.
Then the plot enters the beginning of the original version. There is a war in the area where Wu Jing works. He protects some Chinese people who evacuate to the ships coming from China.
At this time, I learned from the ambassador who fled with him that a domestic aid worker "Dr. Chen" was still in the war-torn area and was a target of the rebels.
But at this time, our troops cannot enter the territory of other countries to fight without authorization from the United Nations.
At the same time, Wu Jing thought that there were many Chinese people in the factory of his apprentice Gu Wei, including the mother of his godson "Xiao Hei", and they could not evacuate.
So under all kinds of concerns, Wu Jing decided to re-enter the war-torn area alone to rescue these people.
Two flowers bloomed. At the same time, because someone in his factory was sick, Gu Wei personally drove to a nearby hospital. When he arrived, he found that the hospital had been controlled by anti-government armed forces.
He lurked carefully and took bold action. After a series of gun battles, he successfully rescued everyone in the hospital, including Dr. Chen and his assistant "Rachel", the character played by Zhang Tianai.
Gu Wei took a group of people from the hospital back to the factory.
At this time, the big leader of the anti-government armed forces, "Dad", already knew that the "Dr. Chen" they were looking for was in a Chinese factory, so he sent a large force to surround the factory.
Gu Wei led the security guards and some workers in the factory to repel a wave of enemy attacks by relying on the right location after a hard battle, but many people on his side had already lost.
Just when the morale in the factory was low and everyone felt that they could not hold on, Wu Jing appeared.
Everyone thought he was coming with reinforcements, but when they learned that Wu Jing was alone, they were disappointed again. Only Gu Wei believed in his master.
After Wu Jing arrived, he led everyone to use the equipment and materials in the factory to make liquefied gas cannons, bulletproof shields, steel guns and other weapons made by local methods.
Arm everyone.
In the end, "Dad" led his men and drove a tank for the final attack. After a desperate struggle, Gu Wei and Wu Jing finally killed each other and defeated the anti-government forces.
With Wu Jing holding the national flag high, the group passed through the war-torn area smoothly. Everyone arrived at a safe place and the evacuation was successful.
