Chapter 264 Because It’s So Beautiful
"Teacher Gu~"
From a distance, Jing Tian, the most important actor in the movie "The Great Wall", came over and greeted Gu Wei with a smile on his face.
"Hello, Miss Jing, long time no see."
The last time I met this beautiful lady was at the premiere of Detective Chinatown. Jingtian was introduced to Gu Wei by Mr. Zhang from Wanda. It has been more than a year.
During this year, Gu Wei became a huge star after the release of several dramas in succession, and consolidated his position in the entertainment industry.
Although Da Tiantian has also released movies and TV series, they have never been very popular. The impression she leaves on the audience most is "this actress is very beautiful and has great resources!"
Although the Sweetheart Cinematic Universe has not yet been fully formed at this time, Wanda's acquisition of Legendary Entertainment is still under negotiation, and the actual contract signing time will be January next year.
However, Jingtian Resources' name has been widely spread in the circle and on the Internet, but it is not a positive reputation.
Because the reputation of several movies she participated in before, such as "Warring States", "From Vegas to Macau", and "Special Identity" were not very good, although she had top-notch film resources, she did not gain the corresponding fame, but was instead ridiculed by many netizens.
Jingtian was also very distressed for a while because of this.
"Brother Wei, I have to go get busy first."
Lin Gengxin, who was chatting with Gu Wei, saw Jing Tian coming over and tactfully said something and walked away.
To survive in the entertainment industry, the most important thing is to be able to distinguish between the big and small kings and know who not to offend. Lin Gengxin is obviously a person who understands the ways of the world very well and knows how to handle everything.
He knew that in the movie "The Great Wall", the heroine in front of him had the greatest background and was someone who really could not be offended.
"Okay, let's talk again when we have time~"
Gu Wei smiled and nodded to him.
Jingtian didn't care about Lin Gengxin's departure. She seemed to have just finished a play. She was wearing a blue armor-style costume, her hair tied up high, and her long bangs were parted from her forehead and flowed to both sides. Below was a fair and beautiful face, which looked very heroic against the backdrop of the armor.
The whole person's appearance has some of the feeling of the Valkyrie in the anime.
In just a few steps, she had walked in front of Gu Wei, looking extremely surprised.
"I heard that you, Mr. Gu, turned down the role in The Great Wall, and I felt really sorry about it."
"No way, it's hard to refuse a favor. Even though I turned down the role before, I still have to come over and make a friendly guest appearance~"
Jing Tian nodded thoughtfully after hearing this and asked:
"Which role did you play?"
"General Wu, the leader of the Tiger Army."
These generals in "The Great Wall" are just for show and don't deserve to have complete names.
"What a pity, there is absolutely no rivalry between us."
Jingtian frowned slightly and said with some regret.
She has always been curious about Gu Wei. Although he is not very old, he is very good at filming, directing, and running a company.
Especially in the past year, Gu Wei's fame in the entertainment industry has been at its peak, making countless young actors jealous.
Some people in the circle think that Gu Wei is just lucky. He happened to catch up with several hit dramas, which made him famous all the way.
Unlike others, Jingtian has the background of Wanda and knows more about the company behind Gu Wei.
It is normal to know that he can get some top resources with his status.
But she is confident that her resources in the film industry over the years are no less than Gu Wei's. Why are the final results of the two so different?
This is something she has never been able to figure out.
"After all, I'm just a guest star, so my role is limited."
"I went to the cinema to see the movie 'Left Ear' that was released a while ago. You were so handsome as 'Zhang Yang', especially with that bad boy cool vibe~"
As he spoke, Jingtian looked at Gu Wei and smiled while covering his mouth.
"The fact that Miss Jing likes it proves that the film is pretty good."
Gu Wei raised his eyebrows and said nonchalantly.
"With a box office of over 800 million, the movie is just okay.
Teacher Gu, just call me Tiantian. That’s what my friends usually call me.
By the way, do you think it would be suitable for me to play the role of 'Little Ear' in The Left Ear?
Gu Wei looked at Jing Tian and said:
"I'm afraid it's not appropriate~"
"Why?"
Jingtian asked doubtfully.
"In the original novel, Xiao Erduo is an ordinary girl. Tiantian, you are so beautiful. If these male characters don't like you in the movie, it doesn't make sense."
Gu Wei spread his hands and said.
"Haha~ Teacher Gu, you really know how to joke."
The two chatted for a while, and then Jingtian said goodbye to Gu Wei and went back to remove her makeup.
Although this was the second time they met, this was the first time they truly got to know each other.
Gu Wei found Jing Tian’s innocent and lovely personality very endearing. She spoke directly, like a well-protected little princess.
In the dressing room, Jingtian had already taken off his somewhat heavy costume and armor and was sitting there removing his makeup.
A plump-looking lady in her 30s, dressed in a business suit, stood behind her.
"Sister Chen, I just saw Gu Wei on the set."
Jingtian cooperated with the makeup artist to remove the makeup without moving his upper body, and opened his mouth to speak to his agent.
"He's here to make a cameo appearance, I heard. The crew originally wanted him to play a supporting role, but he turned it down.
Later, China Film Group and Wanda Film Group strongly invited him to join, and he couldn't resist the favor and came over as a guest star."
"Well, what a pity, there is no rivalry between us~"
Jingtian said with some regret.
"I really don't know what Gu Wei was thinking, he could refuse a Hollywood blockbuster like The Great Wall.
The supporting role he was originally asked to play was the one with the most lines besides you and the male lead, even more important than the role played by Andy Lau.
Now after he refused, they found Lu Han to play the role, and some of the character's scenes were cut out."
Chen Jing didn't understand Gu Wei's choice.
Nowadays, these first-line stars in the domestic entertainment industry are honored to be able to star in Hollywood blockbusters. Even if they only play a cameo role, they can still brag about it after the film is released.
Although "The Great Wall" is a Sino-US co-production, it is the scale of a true Hollywood blockbuster, with an investment of 150 million US dollars.
It is also an A-level production in Hollywood.
The future is to reap box office revenue worldwide.
These stars in the domestic entertainment industry, whenever they are approached to perform, are eager to take the role, and do not mind at all the small size of the role or the few scenes.
Only Gu Wei refused to participate, which was something no one expected at the beginning.
"He's so popular now, maybe he really doesn't have a schedule~"
Jingtian is still looking for excuses for Gu Wei.
"My dear lady, this is The Great Wall. All the actors in our crew have a lot of filming contracts. Did anyone refuse when the crew approached them?
I turned down other plays to do this one, and everyone can still tell which is more important."
After hearing what her agent said, Jingtian said nothing more. In fact, she also understood this principle.
"I wonder if I'll have the chance to work with Gu Wei in the future?
I always feel like he can become popular no matter what role he plays."
After a moment of silence, Jing Tian suddenly asked.
Chen Jing thought about it.
"I'm afraid it won't work this year. The company has offered you a role in another Hollywood blockbuster, Kong: Skull Island. After filming The Great Wall is finished, you'll be going to the United States to film that movie in the second half of the year."
After hearing this, Jingtian showed a regretful expression on his face.
