Chapter 712 Can be filmed together
On April 20, the 9th Beijing International Film Festival was held at the China Film Digital Production Base in Huairou.
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the red carpet area outside the venue was already crowded with reporters from all walks of life who came to shoot and interview. The guests present also walked onto the red carpet in their costumes.
Reba arrived earlier. Under the flashlights of the media, she wore a golden dress and walked to the center of the shooting venue like a goddess of beauty.
Since becoming popular, Reba's aura has become more and more abundant. They say that popularity nourishes people. In the vanity fair of the entertainment industry, this sentence is very reasonable.
The persona Jiaxing created for her is that of an internal entertainment beauty. Reba has a beautiful appearance and three-dimensional facial features. She is 168cm tall and has very good body proportions. She has a small head, large breasts, slim waist, and long legs. She can wear any style of dress. Control, so every time you walk on the red carpet, you have a stunning performance.
Bingbing has disappeared from the domestic entertainment industry due to what happened last year. Reba has taken over the baton of her red carpet glamour. She is praised by the media every time she walks on the red carpet.
Entering the lounge after the red carpet, many celebrities and entertainers present were resting and chatting here, waiting for the ceremony to begin.
Reba found a seat and sat down. There were many people at the film festival award ceremony today. Not to mention foreign filmmakers, there were no less than 100 famous domestic filmmakers. It can be said that The stars are shining brightly.
Unfortunately, she was the only one from Jiaxing present, and she had never interacted with most of the other celebrities. Reba was not an outgoing person, so she could only sit quietly and act like a lady at this time. .
After a while, several people came in at the door. Reba, who was originally bored, brightened up when she saw them, and then stood up.
"Gu Wei~"
It was the crew of [The Wandering Earth] who came through the door.
Gu Wei was wearing a black suit and was surrounded by director Guo Fan, screenwriter Gong Gerer, visual effects director Xu Jian and others.
Wu Jing was unable to come back because of filming [The Climber].
"Reba, you came quite early~" Gu Wei saw Reba walking over and said hello with a smile.
The two of them separated after the plane landed yesterday. He went back to the company, and Reba also had her own work to do.
“I have an opening performance, so of course I have to arrive early.”
“The opening dance, right? Is it a border dance?”
“No, it’s a bit similar to ballet. Like the Four Little Swans, you will know it as soon as the show starts~"
"Okay, I'll watch your wonderful performance later."
After chatting for a while, Reba went backstage to change clothes and wait for the show, while Gu Wei greeted and chatted with various people in the lounge.
A lot of people came to attend the film festival award ceremony today. Some of them had their works shortlisted, and some of them had the entire crew come to promote it.
For example, the crew of [Captain of China], Yu Dong led the main creative team to the scene.
We originally approached Gu Wei for this movie, but he didn’t take it up. The male lead was still Zhang Hanyu.
We are all old friends, and it is inevitable to chat for a few words after meeting.
“.[The Wandering Earth] was so well made, with a super high box office of 5.3 billion, and various honors.
Why didn’t I have the vision to invest in this drama in the first place? "
After chatting with Gu Wei for a few words, Yu Dong looked at Guo Fan and others beside him and said with envy.
“Director Guo, if you need any help from Bona in the future, just ask.”
"Yu Dong, this is wrong of you. Why are you poaching in front of me?" Gu Wei said with a smile.
“It’s not poaching, I just admire Director Guo’s talent and want to have a good relationship with him.”
“I appreciate Director Yu’s kindness and will definitely work together if there is a suitable opportunity in the future. "Guo Fan accepted Yu Dong's good intentions in full. Since the success of "The Wandering Earth", he has been surrounded by people who showed good intentions to him.
It was almost time, and all the people present entered the ceremony hall one after another.
As an international film festival, the Beijing Film Festival attracts many foreigners, including some very familiar faces to domestic audiences.
"That's Sophie Marceau, French Kiss, so beautiful!" Guo Fan sighed as he looked at the white woman wearing a black dress not far to the side.
Gu Wei also saw it and turned to look at Guo Fan: "Do you like her?"
"I like her movies, she is so beautiful in [First Kiss]~"
Gu Wei nodded.
“She was really beautiful when she was young, but it’s a pity that white actresses don’t age well. She is already over 50 years old, and beauty is getting old”
The two chatted and the ceremony soon began.
Gu Wei saw Reba on the stage as he wished.
Wearing a golden ballet dance costume, her facial features are exquisite and three-dimensional. She looks like a golden swan princess against the background of the surrounding dancers.
Reba has been learning to dance since she was a child. Performances on the stage are not difficult for her. She raises her hands and stretches her legs with graceful and charming movements.
The dance lasted for about two minutes. Her program was one of the opening medleys. After the music ended, she had to leave the stage quickly to make room for the performers behind her.
The lights on the stage dimmed, and Reba accidentally fell down while running sideways from the center of the stage.
Because the ballet shoes and white body pants she was wearing were slippery, the fall caused her to slide forward more than two meters.
However, Reba did not waste any time, and with the momentum of her wrestling, she stood up and got off the stage looking a little embarrassed.
Many people in the audience saw this scene.
"Is Miss Reba okay?" Guo Fan obviously saw it too. He knew that Gu Wei had a good relationship with her.
"Well, it doesn't look like there's a big problem, it's just a fall." Gu Wei said it was okay, reached out and took out the cell phone in his pocket and sent Reba a message.
The award ceremony went on normally without any changes due to this small mistake.
It took about 20 minutes for Reba’s reply to come through.
“It’s nothing, I fell down and it hurt a little.
Did you feel particularly embarrassed just now?”
"No, because the light is dark, few people should see it. Your dance performance is very good, and your reaction is very fast." ~"
"Haha, it doesn't matter, wait for me when you're done, let's have a supper together after the ceremony"
"Okay."
Texted it to Reba After a few WeChat messages, Gu Wei's attention returned to the award ceremony.
This year's Beijing International Film Festival is worthy of the word "international", and most of the awards were awarded to participating foreign films.
Only the best screenwriter went to Chen Jianbin, the screenwriter of the movie "The Eleventh Chapter", and the best actress went to Dou Jingtong of "The Eleventh Chapter".
[The Wandering Earth] was not in vain, it won the Best Visual Effects Award.
Best director, best picture, best actor and actress, foreign films and actors.
"What's going on at the Beijing International Film Festival? Even if it doesn't take care of local films, it doesn't have to be like this, right?" Gu Wei kept watching the awards ceremony and frowned slightly.
The Beijing International Film Festival has been held since 2011, which happened to be the year Gu Wei made his debut.
The second year [Embroidery Spring Knife] was shortlisted for the award. Gu Wei followed Lu Yang to participate. Although he failed to win, he clearly remembered that [The Grandmaster] was the biggest winner of the film festival that year and won the award. She has won several heavyweight awards including Best Actress.
Now seven years have passed and the Tiantan Awards have turned into a carnival for foreigners.
“The organizer wants to internationalize and expand the international influence of the film festival. This year, there are only two Chinese people on the jury, Cao Baoping and Liu Jialing, and the rest are foreigners.” Guo Fan said in Gu Wei Explaining in a low voice.
[Wandering Earth] After being nominated for the "Tiantan Award", he had a detailed understanding of this film festival.
"International?" Gu Wei curled his lips with some disdain.
He has always believed that if you want to be authoritative and influential, your own strength is the most important, not relying on giving benefits to others.
As the saying goes, "You said the butterflies will come when they bloom." After the award ceremony, Gu Wei was about to leave when La Peikang stopped him.
“I heard from Guo Fan that he has plans for two sequels to [The Wandering Earth]. After discussing with you, did you suggest that he make the prequel first?”
"Yes, I think there are not many stories that can be told in the prequel, so it can be filmed first."
"I talked with Guo Fan. According to his plan, it will take at least three years to film the second part. Wait until it is released. It will take another three to four years to prepare for the third part.
Is it possible to film the second and third parts together?
This way, after the film is completed, it can be released in the first year. [The Wandering Earth 2] will be available in the next year."
After La Peikang said this, Gu Wei understood, and he frowned slightly.
"It's okay, but I'm just a little anxious.
I have communicated with Director Guo before that the investment in [The Wandering Earth 2] will definitely be much larger than the first one, and the production cost will be almost one billion. RMB.
We will shoot 2 first and wait until the box office is released before shooting 3. There will be no pressure. If we shoot them together, we will have to spend nearly 2 billion in filming funds."
La Beikang waved his hand.
“Money is not a problem. We can bring in more investors. Gu Wei, if you don’t want to carve out too many shares, the bank will be willing to give you a loan.
The risk is a bit higher, but I believe [Wandering Earth] will not let us down! "After that, he patted Gu Wei on the shoulder.
"Domestic science fiction movies have made a good start now. I hope that they can follow up as soon as possible and make more achievements."
Gu Wei thought about it and understood what La Peikang meant.
The other party was considering the issue entirely from an official perspective and did not care about the profit or loss of the movie. He just wanted to make more progress in domestic science fiction movies as soon as possible.
The current copyright of [Wandering Earth] is jointly owned by China Film and Television and [Wei Tianxia]. The project leader is Guo Fan, so La Peikang has to convince Gu Wei and Guo to have this idea. Fan.
"I don't have any objections, but there are too many things involved in the filming of [The Wandering Earth]. We still need to sit down and have a good discussion before making a decision."
"Okay, actually there is no need to rush this matter. , I just have a rough idea. When you have time, Director Guo, let’s hold a meeting to discuss what to do next.”
After declining La Peikang’s invitation to dinner, Gu Wei came out and followed him. Reba met up, the two found a private high-end restaurant for a late-night snack and then drove to the [Fanyue 108] community.
"Sure enough, it is still on the hot search." Early the next morning, Gu Wei and Reba were eating breakfast, and Reba said helplessly while looking at the news on her phone.
Gu Wei also saw it, and the 10th most searched item was #热巴京城 Film Festival wrestling#
Clicking on the title, in addition to the introduction of the incident, there is also a video of Reba wrestling at that time. The camera is a bit far away, but her embarrassment can still be seen.
“You can be on the hot search even if you fall, it means you are popular!” Gu Wei said with a smile.
"I would rather not have this heat, it's too embarrassing." Reba said a little depressed.
“Haha, it’s actually a good thing to make small mistakes occasionally, the character is more grounded”
“That’s all I can do to comfort myself.”
After breakfast, the two of them went out separately.
Reba still has a lot of work to do, and she will have to leave after less than two days in the capital.
Gu Wei has many things to do when he returns to the company. The most important thing at the moment is to make all the preparations for shooting in Tokyo.
Fortunately, the producer and several assistant directors of the crew will be fully responsible for this, but Gu Wei also needs to make a decision on some things.
On April 24, Gu Wei flew to Changsha to record [Escape Room].
After entering the program set, he first met the director He Shu. After returning to the hotel, Gu Wei received a message from Yang Mi.
“Have you arrived in Changsha?”
“Here we are, just settled in the hotel.”
“Come out and have a meal together~”
"No problem, where to go?"
"You go downstairs to the lobby first"
After a while, Gu Wei went downstairs to the lobby on the first floor and saw Yang Mi and Xie Yilin sitting on the sofa in the lobby, waiting for him.
“Sister Mi~” Gu Wei raised his hand in greeting.
"It's so ungentlemanly to ask us two girls to wait for you so slowly."
"Please invite me to dinner, and I will come down after replying to your message. ”
The two of them had a new habit of bickering, and then Gu Wei said hello to Xie Jolin.
“Hello, Yilin, long time no see~
I remember the last time we met was at an award ceremony, right?”
“[Bazaar Charity Night] , our childhood sisters all went there, and it has been more than a year.
But Gu Wei, you are still so handsome!" Xie Yilin looked at Gu Wei's face and praised.
"Haha, thank you, you are very beautiful too~" Gu Wei complimented back and asked Yang Mi, "Where should we go to eat?"
"I have booked a restaurant and a seat, so just go there now."
"Okay, I happen to be a little hungry."
The three of them walked out of the hotel, got into a special nanny car, and soon arrived at a local specialty restaurant.
"Sauce salted duck, minced pepper fish head, braised pork
Mi Mi, aren't you afraid of getting fat by ordering so many meat dishes? "
In the private room of the restaurant, Xie Yilin swallowed her saliva while looking at the dishes that were served. She was very greedy but she really didn't dare to eat more.
"Aren't there two vegetarian dishes? I ordered it for Gu Wei, he can eat it," Yang Mi said nonchalantly.
"Can you, not be afraid of getting fat? "Male celebrities also have body anxiety and need to control their weight, especially young popular celebrities like Gu Wei.
Gu Wei smiled: "I have a special physique and I don't get fat no matter how much I eat, so I usually eat a lot. It’s very casual, and I’ll eat a lot as long as it’s delicious.”
"I'm so envious of your physique that you can eat without getting fat!"
The dishes were served, and the three of them chatted while eating.
“Have you not joined the crew for filming recently?” Gu Wei asked casually after taking a bite of braised pork.
“Well, we are filming [Eye of the Storm], which was launched at the beginning of this month. It is a crime-themed TV series produced by the company and Perfect.”
“Hey, not bad, we are trying a new subject. Do you want to transform ? "
"It's still early, let's see how the results are on the airing."
"By the way, Penguin asked me to play [Mrs. Huzhu], do you want to come with me?" Yang Mi said with big eyes. Xiang Gu Wei.
“Forget it, the name sounds like an ancient puppet show with a heroine. After playing [Zhifu] and [Si Teng], I don’t want to act in this type of drama for the time being.
< br>And after [Detective Chinatown 3] is finished, I have to start a costume drama for the company, and I don’t have enough time.”
“You can work with Zhao Liying and Jing Tian, but you can’t work with me, right? < br>
I understand, I'm used to being rejected by you anyway." Yang Mi sighed deliberately.
Gu Wei smiled bitterly and said: "Sister Mi, where are you acting? We have previously collaborated on "Gu Jian Qi Tan", "Three Lives Three Worlds" and "Xiu Chun Dao 2". It seems that no actress other than you has worked with me more than three times. I can't always work with you, right? , the audience is tired of watching it
Of course, the most important thing is the schedule, my schedule is too full”
“You always have a reason~” Yang Mi snorted, she just complained Two sentences, I understand better in my heart.
Xie Yilin was eating food on the side and did not join in the conversation between the two.
She originally knew that Yang Mi and Gu Wei had a good relationship. After meeting and listening to their chat, she realized that there must be something going on between them...
