Chapter 417 Sweet Pastry
The night is getting darker and the dinner is gradually coming to an end.
Gu Wei said goodbye to several people from Huayi at the entrance of the hotel and got into his official car.
After Gu Wei's car drove away, Wang Zhonglei's smile, which was smiling and waving, disappeared instantly.
"I saw that you and Gu Wei were quite close during the dinner. Why didn't you go with him?"
Yu Wenwen looked aggrieved.
“Mr. Gu would not refuse me anything I did at the dinner table. I thought he had a crush on me, but just now I asked him to take me home, but he refused without thinking.
I’m also wondering what’s not good enough?”
She knew what Mr. Wang meant by bringing her to this dinner. As a star of Huayi, especially a newcomer, It’s not uncommon for people to be accompanied by wine in a wine shop.
Many successful female celebrities inevitably have to drink with them on some important occasions, not to mention that she is not even famous at all.
Before coming here, Wang Zhonglei also hinted to her that she must accompany Gu Wei well, and that no matter what the other party asks for, she must meet it, and it is best to take the initiative.
She agreed with a bit of embarrassment on her face, as if she had made a lot of sacrifices for the company, but she was actually very happy in her heart.
At the dinner table, she said she was a fan of Gu Wei, but she was not lying.
She entered the entertainment industry in 2014 and began to appear in some low-cost youth dramas. She also released an album. At that time, Gu Wei's "Gu Jian Qi Tan" and "Shan Shan Is Coming" became popular. When you attract countless fans.
In addition, there are two popular movies: "Xiu Chun Knife" and "Detective Chinatown 1".
The few Chinese and English songs that year took the entire Chinese music scene by storm, and countless new and old singers were beaten to death by a cross-border actor.
It can be said that in the two years since Gu Wei's debut, the three parties of film, television and singing have made great efforts, and he has become the absolute top leader in domestic entertainment and the absolute idol of the younger generation in the country.
Countless little girls in their 20s have become his biggest fans.
His achievements were so outstanding and his fame was so high that even when the "Four Returned Sons" came back, they could not shake his position as the top player in domestic entertainment and could only succumb to him.
Although Yu Wenwen is not a big fan, she definitely admires and likes Gu Wei.
What girl wouldn't love a handsome and talented domineering president.
If Wang Zhonglei asked her to accompany some wealthy businessmen with big bellies today, Yu Wenwen would still hesitate, but she was totally willing to accompany Gu Wei, and she did not object to having something happen with him at all.
This mentality is like those male fans who chase the star Liu Yifei. If one day Liu takes the initiative to have something happen with you, which fan can refuse.
It's a pity that the goddess has the intention to help the king but not the king.
Wang Zhongjun standing aside glanced at Yu Wenwen.
"Wenwen, you have worked hard today, please go back first."
"Okay, Mr. Wang."
When Yu Wenwen heard Mr. Wang's arrangement, she agreed with a low eyebrow. , turned and left.
"It seems that Gu Wei is a cautious person. Although he does a lot of work on the scene, he still keeps his bottom line very firmly."
After Yu Wenwen left, Wang Zhongjun Said to his brother.
"With all the scandals about him in recent years, I don't believe that he is not a womanizer!"
Xiao Wang was not very convinced.
Wang Zhongjun smiled.
“Perhaps it’s not that Gu Wei is not close to women, but that he is more cautious about the women we give him.
Being successful at a young age, and still able to control his belt, he is a good person A big deal man!”
Wang Zhongjun spoke highly of Gu Wei.
"I don't have any bad thoughts towards him. I just see that his movies are selling well now, and we will soon cooperate, just to have a relationship."
Wang Zhonglei is a little aggrieved.
He really didn't think too much about it. At first, he was a little dissatisfied with the cooperation with Gu Wei [Predecessor 3] and the company giving away so many benefits.
But now with the rapid growth of the box office of "Tang Detective 2", it has exceeded 3 billion, and it is about to break the record of "Mermaid".
He also believed a lot about what his elder brother had said before that Gu Wei could bring the box office of "The Ex 3" to over 10.
So when they had the opportunity to have dinner together this time, he also wanted to have a relationship with Gu Wei. After all, there is nothing wrong with supporting someone who can help him make money.
In his opinion, it is not normal to have a relationship with a man and give a girl away. When Yu Wenwen was drinking with him, Gu Wei did not resist at all. He thought that the rest of the matter would be a matter of course. Unexpectedly, In the end, Gu Wei was able to push the beauty out.
Wang Zhongjun patted his younger brother on the shoulder.
“Take your time, don’t rush, there will be a long time to come, let’s see how much surprise this cooperation with Gu Wei can bring us.”
Gu Wei, who was leaving the hotel by car, also felt uncomfortable. After more than two hours of dinner, some drinks, and a beautiful woman in his arms, it took great perseverance for him to reject Yu Wenwen's offer.
He is indeed not at ease with the King of Huayi. Although he is not afraid of being overturned because of women, he does not want to have any leverage in the hands of others.
To be honest, Yu Wenwen is just an average beauty. When they first met, he was not that hungry. It was impossible for him to accept everything she offered.
Back in the Palm Springs apartment, I opened the door and the room was completely dark.
Gu Wei changed his shoes and walked in. He took off his suit jacket, pulled off his tie, and loosened the collar of his shirt.
On the big bed in the master bedroom, Nazha was sleeping soundly like a princess in a fairy tale, quiet and beautiful.
The sound of Gu Wei entering the door woke her up. Naza opened her sparse sleepy eyes and frowned slightly.
"You're back."
She sent a WeChat message in the evening, and Gu Wei said that there was a banquet party, and she thought that Gu Wei would not come to her place.
Gu Wei sat by the bed and said nothing. He lowered his head and leaned on Nazha's body. He pushed the hair from her face with one hand and reached into the quilt with the other hand to kiss Nazha's red lips.
Nazha was still in a daze, but when she felt Gu Wei's enthusiasm, she began to respond proactively.
The night was like water, and the summer sky was filled with endless stars. They shone with mysterious light, as if they were Telling endless stories.
On a night with fresh air, looking at the starry sky, I can't help but sigh at the insignificance and infinite possibilities of human beings. This may be the moment when the soul is sublimated.
The two new films "Walker" and "A Little Smile Are Allure" performed mediocrely at the box office after their release, with only 30 to 40 million on their first day.
But they further divided the proportion of "Tang Detective 2" in the schedule. By Friday, the single-day box office of "Tang Detective 2" had dropped to 74.65 million.
Fortunately, during the two days of the third weekend, the movie's box office increased slightly.
In its third week of release, [Tang Detective 2] grossed a total of 748 million at the box office, with a total box office of 3.368 billion, only one step away from the box office record of [Mermaid] of 3.391 billion.
On Monday of the fourth week, the box office of "Tang Detective 2" plunged significantly, with a single-day box office of 32.57 million and a total box office of 3.4 billion. At this point, the movie finally surpassed "Mermaid" and became the new domestic movie box office champion.
In the office, Gu Wei received phone calls one after another, all congratulating him on the box office success of "Tang Detective 2" and winning the first place in film history.
Although Gu Wei had already won the first place in film history when he starred in "Monster Hunt", that film was a film of "Anle Pictures" after all, and Gu Wei was just the leading actor.
The current film "Tang Detective 2" is controlled and produced by "For Tomorrow", and Gu Wei directs and stars in his own work.
The "Detective Chinatown" series is to Gu Wei, just like "Wolf Warrior" is to Wu Jing, and "囧 Series" is to Xu Zheng. They are both works with a strong personal imprint.
After hanging up the phone and replying to a series of congratulatory text messages from friends, Gu Wei tidied himself up, came out of the company, and rushed to the studio of [People] magazine to shoot the September solo cover. .
In the fashion industry, there is often a saying that gold, nine, and silver are ten. The September and October issues of each year are the most critical periods for best-selling magazines. Because September and October every year are the times when brands invest the most, when new autumn and winter products are launched. Although March and April are also seasons, the price of autumn and winter clothing is much higher than that of spring and summer clothing, and major investors pay special attention to it.
At this time of year, magazines invest a lot of manpower and material resources into publicity, and invite the most famous stars in the fashion industry to shoot for the issue.
Gu Wei, as one of the most popular celebrities in domestic entertainment in recent years, has been receiving invitations from various magazines and periodicals from the beginning to the end of the year. If he wanted to shoot, he would not be free all year round.
But Gu Wei doesn't have that much time. He basically chooses some well-known domestic periodicals and magazines to shoot some solo covers in his free time.
This month, he had originally booked several top domestic magazines such as Harpers Bazaar, ELLE, and Marie Claire, but People magazine suddenly came to visit, and Gu Wei also He readily agreed.
Unlike other magazines in the fashion industry, [People] is managed by People's Publishing House and sponsored by People's Oriental Publishing and Media Co., Ltd.
When it was founded, it mainly published celebrity biographies and reports on contemporary high-end figures. It was the earliest biographical publication in China and was famous for its professionalism, humanities and historical accumulation.
[People] The target of the report is people who have great influence on China today. Its target audience includes people who are participating in social politics and business or have a strong interest in social politics and business, successful people with financial freedom, and prosperous careers. Various business owners and heads of corporate departments, potential young people with dreams, civil servants in government departments at all levels, and people from the cultural and academic circles.
It is an authoritative magazine with great influence and credibility in the country.
Professor Yang Zhenning, entrepreneur Li Ning and the respected Professor Yuan have all appeared on the cover of [People] magazine.
Gu Wei was able to receive the invitation to become the cover character, on the one hand because of his hot fame and popularity at this time, and on the other hand because of his outstanding contributions to charity as a star and entrepreneur.
Since he established his own charity fund in early 2015, he has invested nearly 200 million in it.
In the past two years, under the supervision of Gu Wei's mother, the personal charity foundation has built dozens of charity primary schools in remote mountainous areas in the west, helping tens of thousands of mountain children.
Sometimes, Gu Wei calls home and advises his mother not to work too hard. However, he finds that his mother, who has been a housewife for more than 20 years, seems to have found a new partner since she started working at a charity fund. I am particularly energetic when pursuing my life goals.
After trying several times to no avail, Gu Wei just let nature take its course. He felt that for his mother, this kind of meaningful work would make her happier than being a wealthy wife at home. Enough.
It was just that Gu Wei's father couldn't bear it at first, but as time went by, he simply handed over his factory to his original deputy, and followed Gu Wei's mother to work at the charity foundation.
In their later years, the old couple seemed to have found the meaning of life in the process of constantly helping others, and they lived very happily every day.
Gu Wei is very supportive of their current career, but he is a little worried about their health, so he spends money to find some professional health doctors to visit his parents to give them regular physical examinations and recuperation.
As long as you do some things, even without publicity, ordinary people may not know about it, but in the eyes of the real upper class, your efforts will be seen by them.
Gu Wei has made up his mind to continue his personal charity foundation.
Anyway, based on his current assets, the stocks he bought in Tencent and Moutai over the years, the shares in MiHoYo and ByteDance, and the money he earned in the film and television industry, even if An amount of 100 million is invested in charity funds every year, and his personal assets will only increase in the future.
And he made up his mind that he would never take the initiative to publicize this kind of charity, and would only continue to do it silently.
Because Gu Wei does not need the personal fame brought by charity at all. On the one hand, his charity is a sense of responsibility for serving the world, and on the other hand, it also adds a guarantee for his own future.
Enlight Media.
Liu Yan came out of her agent's office and walked lightly in the company.
Her career has been booming recently. She has taken on several film and television dramas through the company's channels, including the second part of the original box office champion "Monster Hunt". Although she is not the heroine, she is very important to her. It's also an excellent resource for her.
Everyone in the company treats her very well, and everything goes smoothly at work.
The only thing she was a little dissatisfied with was that when she joined the cast of "Monster Hunt 2", she originally thought that the male lead would still be Gu Wei. Only when she got the script did she realize that Gu Wei was not participating.
“Sister Liu Yan?”
Bao Beier came up from the side with a bald head and a flattering smile.
Liu Yanxiu frowned slightly and looked at him expressionlessly.
"What's the matter?"
Since the bridesmaid incident, the relationship between the two has gone through twists and turns, from good colleagues to enemies. Finally, after Gu Wei intervened, Bao Beier apologized and After apologizing, the relationship returns to that of ordinary colleagues.
"Haha, this is nothing. I want to ask Sister Liu Yan if you are free in the evening. My wife would like to invite you to have a casual dinner."
"Your wife invites me?"< br>
“Yes, yes, the Lord wants us two.”
Bao Beier looked at her with a smile.
“It would be best if Mr. Gu could come if he has time. The movie he directed and starred in has become the number one in domestic film history. I admire him very much. My wife is also a fan of Mr. Gu”
Liu Yan's mouth twitched slightly after hearing his words. It was not easy for her to meet Gu Wei, so how could she help him date someone.
She knew that Bao Beier and even Mr. Wang of Guangguang had misunderstood her relationship with Gu Wei, thinking that she was Gu Wei's woman. She really wanted to, but the key was that they never gave her a chance.
"Mr. Gu has been too busy recently, I'm afraid he doesn't have time."
Bao Beier looked regretful when she heard Liu Yan's words.
"What a pity, I really want to learn from Mr. Gu!"
"Well, I won't tell you anymore, Mr. Wang called me~"
Liu Yan didn't talk nonsense to Bao Beier, turned around and left after saying something.
Entering the president's office, Wang Changtian greeted Liu Yan to sit down with a gentle face, and asked his assistant to make her a cup of tea. He chatted with her for a while in various ways.
I asked Liu Yan if she had encountered any difficulties at work recently and if she needed help from the company.
Liu Yan was confused at first, but she finally understood after Mr. Wang talked to her about the cooperation between Guangguang and [Wei Tianxia].
The movie "Tang Detective 2" co-produced by Gu Wei and Guang Guang has already sold 3.4 billion, and it is not the final result yet. Guang Guang will definitely make a lot of money.
Mr. Wang asked her to come over and have a chat, care about her life and work, and wanted to deepen the relationship with Gu Wei from her side.
After all, according to the plot of "Tang Detective 2", this drama will definitely have a third part. Guangguang doesn't want any mistakes in future cooperation. After all, this piece of meat is too fat. Big names in the entertainment industry The company is watching, and their light is actually not indispensable. At least Huayi and Bona have the ability to replace them.
Only by having a good relationship with Gu Weichu can he keep eating this piece of fat.
So Wang Changtian will not miss any opportunity to build a relationship with Gu Wei. After all, hundreds of millions of interests are involved.
After Liu Yan figured out the reason, although she felt guilty, she still dealt with it.
Finally she remembered the recent movie she had taken.
“Mr. Wang, I recently accepted a role in [Monster Hunt 2], but strangely the protagonist of the second part is not Mr. Gu.
It’s hard for me to ask the crew, do you know what’s going on? "
Wang Changtian gave her a strange look.
"Didn't Mr. Gu tell you that [Anle Pictures] broke up with Mr. Gu because of interests? They wanted to invest in the second film with their salary, but they didn't agree, so they changed the leading role. "
After saying that, Wang Changtian laughed contemptuously.
"Mr. Jiang is old after all. He can't make the cake bigger if he doesn't want to share the cake. Seeing that Gu Wei's [Tang Detective 2] sold so well, I wonder if he regrets it”
Liu Yan knew that Mr. Jiang in Wang Changtian's mouth was Jiang Zhiqiang, the president of Anle, and she also realized the twists and turns involved.
After sitting for a while, Liu Yan left the president's office, breathed a sigh of relief, and patted her tall chest.
"I can't do this anymore. I have to find a way to make an appointment with Gu Wei. Even if I get closer to him, I can feel more at ease."
