Chapter 350 The beginning and the end echo each other
"Seventeen, you once asked me about the seal of the Donghuang Bell. Do you remember?"
Gu Wei was wearing dark golden armor and had a beard on his face, looking dignified and solemn. He spoke to Yang Mi, who was dressed as a man in white armor in front of him.
"Seventeen remembers."
"I will teach you this technique tonight!"
Gu Wei said solemnly.
"Really? Thank you, Master!"
Yang Mi looked surprised.
"Among my seventeen disciples, you are the only one with the highest talent and who can use this technique.
If not, I really don't want to teach you such a dangerous spell!"
Gu Wei turned his head and spoke slowly.
Yang Mi clasped his hands together and lowered his head slightly.
"Thank you for the praise, Master!"
The camera slowly zooms in on Yang Mi's face.
"Ka! Xiao Mi did great this time, passed. That's all for today, everyone!"
Lin Yufen's voice came from the loudspeaker. Yang Mi breathed a sigh of relief and lowered his raised hands.
There have been changes in the scenes filmed in recent days. Yang Mi plays the fledgling "Bai Qian", who becomes a disciple of "Mo Yuan", the number one war god in heaven, and disguises herself as a man to become his seventeenth disciple "Si Yin".
Gu Wei's identity naturally became Yang Mi's master "Mo Yuan".
With makeup and a beard, he looks much older, but compared to the original "Mo Yuan" played by Zhao Youting, Gu Wei's version still looks a lot younger.
Fortunately, his acting skills are good enough, he is calm, dignified and majestic. The "Mo Yuan" with the same appearance and the "Ye Hua" he played a few days ago look like two completely different people.
After the filming, Yang Mi took off her makeup, changed her clothes, and took the phone from her assistant.
“Yeah, I know.
The movie has already grossed over 1 billion, it would be a waste if we don’t promote it. The heroine of a billion-dollar movie, what a nice title.
Sister Jia, just take care of it. You are good at this.
Don't do it too deliberately. It's best to let your own media and fans speak out.
It's okay to pull me down, after all, this is my actual achievement, no one can refute it, and it's understandable to find some people to highlight it.
Don't be afraid of offending people, I've offended enough people, personal reputation is the most important thing."
After chatting with his agent for a few minutes and hanging up the phone, Yang Mi felt quite proud.
After so many years in the industry, this is the first time she has achieved such results in the film industry.
It's not her style not to hype the film properly, and it would be a waste of such good box office results.
In the Chinese film and television industry, acting in TV series and acting in movies have never been on the same level. Back then, she had become a hot young actress in the mainland with the hits of "Chinese Paladin 3" and "Palace".
However, because she has not starred in any blockbuster movies, her status does not match her popularity.
When Wuershan was filming Painted Skin 2, Zhou Xun and Zhao Wei were fighting over who would be the female lead. They asked Yang Mi to play the bird demon "Que'er" with a small role, and she was very happy. After all, it was a big-budget movie with huge investment, and the main actors were all top-tier celebrities in the circle.
Although she was popular at the time, she was still no match for Zhou Xun and Zhao Wei.
Things have changed. Now she is the real boss. The movies she starred in have grossed over 1 billion, while "Painted Skin 2" only grossed over 700 million.
Judging from the box office performance of movies, she is not inferior to the former two Bing and four Dan.
"Miss Mi, you haven't left yet?"
Just when Yang Mi was feeling very proud, Gu Wei's voice came from behind him.
"Why are you walking without making any sound? You scared me!"
Yang Mi patted her tall and plump breasts, turned sideways and complained to Gu Wei.
Gu Wei's eyes were unconsciously drawn to her hands.
"I was just about to leave after taking off my makeup when I saw you standing there in a daze. I came over curiously to ask."
"I was just standing there thinking about something. Let's go back together!"
Yang Mi happily invited Gu Wei to go together.
"Sister Mi, you seem to be in a good mood. Do you have any good news to share with me?"
As the two walked together, Gu Wei asked curiously.
"Nothing, didn't our movie 'Blade of Blades 2' break 1 billion at the box office?"
Yang Mi said with a smile.
Gu Wei slapped his forehead.
"I would have forgotten if you hadn't told me, Sister Mi!"
He was busy filming these past two days, and in his spare time he communicated with the company about the promotion of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", and didn't pay much attention to the box office performance of "The Sword Identity 2".
He knew that the movie would definitely break 1 billion, so he didn't check the results every day.
"Ahem~ Sister Mi, I think I need to think about this carefully. Wait for me in the room tonight."
Then he added another sentence.
"I won't make it too difficult for you~"
Yang Mi rolled her eyes at him, but didn't care. She was in a good mood.
This achievement was also achieved because of Gu Wei, and she has not forgotten that it was Gu Wei who gave her the film resources.
No matter what Gu Wei asks for today, just satisfy him. I just hope he can take it easy and not affect tomorrow's filming.
The two walked side by side to the hotel. Yang Mi was thinking about what the publicity company would do. With this achievement, his future career would be smoother.
Gu Wei was thinking about what to do in the evening.
It needs to be novel, but not too intense, and still have a certain degree of difficulty.
It seems that he is the master in the recent filming and Yang Mi is the apprentice. Their role-playing is pretty good.
Well, keep it as a backup.
The two of them had their own thoughts, and the journey was very quiet, with no one speaking.
When he walked into the hotel lobby, the cell phone in Gu Wei's pocket rang, interrupting his thoughts.
He took it out and took a look at it, frowned slightly, and stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Yang Mi asked from the side.
"Uh~, Reba asked me if I had anything to do that evening and wanted to invite me to go to the movies, but I told her to wait for another day!"
Gu Wei said indifferently.
We have to make all the arrangements for today, so Reba's invitation can only be postponed.
Gu Wei was about to type a reply to Reba.
“No need~”
Yang Mi stops Gu Wei.
She looked at her watch and smiled.
"It's still early now, tell Reba that we can go together!"
Gu Wei looked at Yang Mi, not knowing what she meant, but he didn't care. So he told Reba about this on WeChat and asked her if she was willing.
After finishing the show in the evening, Reba returned to the hotel and rolled around on the bed with her cell phone in her hand, waiting for Gu Wei's reply.
Her cell phone rang and she quickly picked it up to look at it.
"this"
She was also a little confused when she saw the content on WeChat.
But judging from the content, it should be Yang Mi's idea, and she didn't want to spoil the boss's interest.
When Reba changed her clothes and went downstairs to the hotel lobby at the agreed time, she found that there were quite a lot of people waiting.
In addition to Yang Mi and Gu Wei, Huang Mengying, Zhu Xudan and Dai Si from the company were also there, making a total of 6 people including her.
"Miss Mi!"
She greeted Yang Mi and nodded to the others.
"Okay, Reba is here, let's go."
Yang Mi waved his hand generously and everyone walked out.
Reba came close to Gu Wei and asked in a low voice:
"What's going on?"
Gu Wei shrugged.
"Your sister and I ran into Zhu Xudan and Dai Si in the lobby. They were going out for a walk, so she invited them to come along, and later she even called Huang Mengying over as well.
She treated it as a team-building activity.”
Gu Wei’s nanny car can accommodate 6 people.
As the saying goes, three women make a play. Now there are five women in front of Gu Wei, which is a big show.
After getting on the bus, several people began to discuss what to watch. Everyone took out their mobile phones and swiped around, then discussed with each other.
There have been quite a few new movies released recently, but none of them have been a box office hit or have received particularly good reviews.
A slightly more famous one is "Go Fighting: Royal Treasure", which has been released for more than a week. This movie is a big movie of last year's popular variety show "Go Fighting".
Just like its predecessors "Running Man Movie" and "Where Are We Going, Dad? Movie", it is a complete money-making work.
However, this year, the audience has seen through the bad nature of this kind of variety show movie and will not support it as much as they did in the previous two years.
Therefore, the box office of "Go Fighting: Royal Treasure" in the first week of its release was only about 60 million, and it has dropped sharply. It seems that it is a question whether the final box office can exceed 100 million.
Released at the same time was a Hollywood blockbuster, "The Last Witch Hunter," a fantasy action blockbuster starring Vin Diesel, which also did not perform well at the box office.
Facts have proved that after the release of the "Fast and Furious" series, the bald boss's box office appeal in China is almost zero.
After everyone discussed it for a long time, they finally decided to watch the latest movie "The Bad Boys".
This is a Hong Kong-style comedy starring Francis Ng, Ken Cheng and Jiang Shuying. No one has seen it yet and is looking forward to it.
Soon, the car arrived at a cinema near the hotel.
Today is a weekday and it is quite late, so there are only a few people in the cinema.
Gu Wei and the others put on masks and baseball caps and took the elevator from the underground parking lot to the cinema.
The movie tickets were bought by their assistant after they chose the movie. Gu Wei specifically instructed the assistant to contact the cinema and book a show.
Although they were wrapped tightly, the group of Gu Wei, one man and five women were still very eye-catching when they arrived at the cinema.
The assistant bought drinks and popcorn for everyone. Since the whole place was private, several people entered quickly.
When we entered the theater, there were no outsiders. Everyone took off their masks, sat down, and chatted happily while waiting for the movie to begin.
Gu Wei could also see it along the way.
Among Yang Mi and the four artists under her, Reba has a closer relationship with Huang Mengying, and they can occasionally get together and chat for a few words. Zhu Xudan has a better relationship with another girl from the border area, Dai Si, and they are always together whether in the car or to the cinema.
As for Da Mimi, as the boss, she can talk to anyone, and several people responded enthusiastically to the topics she started.
On the surface, the five people seem to be good sisters to each other, but in fact, it feels like there are five people forming six groups in a college girls' dormitory.
But these have nothing to do with Gu Wei. He still had a good experience today.
Although there were so many people, everyone had to be reserved and no one took the initiative to go to Gu Wei.
But he is the boss after all. Except for Yang Mi, the others including Reba were praising him and chatting with him.
Five women with different styles but equally beautiful faces surrounded Gu Wei. They were good-looking and spoke nicely. Even if he couldn't do anything, it was a pleasure to be with them.
It’s just like some commercial drinking parties, where they like to invite some beautiful women to accompany them. Even if they can’t do anything, they are pleasing to the eye, and it’s a very happy thing for everyone to interact with them.
[The Bad Guys Bring Good News] is 100 minutes long. A few people sit together, watching the movie while eating popcorn, and they smile at the funny parts. Time flies by quickly.
It was already late at night when the group walked out of the cinema.
After getting in the nanny car, everyone was still discussing the movie they had just watched.
"What do you think? You didn't smile much just now."
Yang Mi asked Gu Wei.
"It's okay, a traditional Hong Kong comedy, full of nonsense and shit, all thanks to Wu Zhenyu and Zheng Zhongji for their antics.
This type of film had a certain market in the early years, but now mainland audiences are not so keen on it.”
Gu Wei's analysis was very logical, and Yang Mi nodded beside him.
"Normally, this kind of comedy would be best released during the Spring Festival. During the Spring Festival, everyone loves to watch a happy movie.
But you see that it was released more than two weeks in advance, which shows that both the publicity and distribution company and the theaters were not optimistic about the quality of the film.
I estimate that the box office will hardly exceed 50 million."
Gu Wei's analysis also attracted the attention of several other people, and several little girls looked at him with some admiration.
I don't know if he's sincere or just pretending.
After arriving at the hotel, Gu Wei said goodbye to the girls one after another.
Reba looked at him with some reluctance. She couldn't understand why a nice date for two turned into a company team-building event.
After everyone left, Gu Wei cleared his throat.
"Ahem~ Sister Mi, it's your turn to fulfill your promise~"
Yang Mi was a little hesitant.
"Isn't it a little too late today? How about another day?
I'm not trying to be a jerk, I'm just worried about delaying tomorrow's filming."
Gu Wei smiled.
"What Sister Mi said makes sense. You can pay in installments. I'll collect some interest today."
With that, the two of them half-heartedly entered Yang Mi's room. Gu Wei threw his phone onto the sofa and escorted Yang Mi into the bedroom.
After returning to the room, Reba washed up and lay on the bed to put on a facial mask. The more she thought about watching a movie in the evening, the more depressed she felt.
He took out his cell phone and sent a WeChat message to Gu Wei.
"Are you there?"
After waiting for a while and seeing no response, I continued sending.
"I'll treat you to a meal when I have time. I haven't had time before, so I haven't had this meal yet.
Besides, today's movie wasn't that good. Why don't you pick out a good one for us to watch later?"
I waited for a long time, but still no reply.
Reba thought Gu Wei might be resting, so she turned off her phone and prepared to go to bed.
At the same time, in Yang Mi's room.
In the bedroom, Gu Wei, as the master, was teaching his youngest disciple, Xiao Shiqi.
Xiao Shiqi is indeed his smartest disciple. He learns all kinds of knowledge taught by his master very quickly.
He is simply a genius in cultivation.
They can learn it quickly and become proficient in it in a short time, and can even surpass their teachers in a short time.
This made Master Gu Wei very happy.
At the same time, the cell phone that Gu Wei threw on the sofa in the living room was still ringing from time to time, and then the screen lit up, but unfortunately no one cared.
