Chapter 475: A Wealthy Young Master Enters the Entertainment Circle
In the last few days of 2016, all major video platforms held their own year-end celebrations. For the first time this year, Tencent Video launched the [Tengxun Video Starlight Awards], using its influence to invite top stars in the industry to attend.
In the afternoon, a group of celebrities, both big and small, walked on the red carpet of the [Starlight Awards]. Fan Bingbing, dressed in a black evening gown, walked out with an elegant step holding Wang Zhonglei's arm. Her elegant temperament like a lady and her beautiful face attracted the flashes of the reporters on both sides.
As the two walked by, the red carpet event was basically coming to an end. The audience around them not only did not slack off, but instead they all perked up, their eyes full of anticipation.
Because everyone knows that the real finale is about to appear.
At the beginning of the red carpet, a black Mercedes limousine slowly drove up, stopped, and the door opened. A black leather shoe was the first to extend out of the car, and then a tall and straight figure came out of the car with a slight bend.
The figure stopped, wearing a pair of black leather shoes and the latest LV slim striped suit, with a white shirt and a long black tie underneath. Looking up, a pair of deep eyes on his chiseled face seemed to hide countless stars, with sword-like eyebrows slanting into his temples, a high nose bridge, sexy thin lips, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he didn't care about anything around him.
The crowd around was silent for a second, and then broke into deafening cheers and screams!
"Ahhh! Gu Wei, Gu Wei, I love you!!"
"Gu Wei! Look here, you are the most handsome!"
"Hubby, I love you!"
"Brother, you are the best!!"
“.”
After getting out of the car, Gu Wei buttoned his shirt and walked onto the red carpet with a smile.
He was already accustomed to the excitement of the fans on both sides and the various reporters taking pictures. He raised his hands and waved from time to time, facing the various cameras with a smile, and strode inside.
Unlike the premiere of "The Great Wall", he will definitely be the last one to perform at ceremonies like the "Starlight Awards". Even Fan Bingbing, who always performs the last one after the red carpet, would not have any objection.
Gu Wei's fame, status and popularity are there. As long as he participates, the organizers will definitely give him the highest courtesy.
"Gu Wei's outfit today is so perfect, he has the aura of a wealthy young man!
I just love him to death!"
"He feels like he walked out of a comic book, my prince. I'm really looking forward to his next drama~"
"I watched it online. It's a costume drama. Although Gu Wei always looks handsome in costume, after seeing him in person, I'm more looking forward to his modern dramas."
“.”
After Gu Wei walked by, the excited fans on both sides of the road gradually calmed down and started discussing with each other.
On the small stage at the end of the red carpet, Fan Bingbing and Huayi's Wang Zhonglei were about to go inside after taking photos when the deafening screams outside attracted their attention.
Fan Bingbing couldn't help but look back. She naturally knew who would be the finale of today's ceremony.
“This popularity is too exaggerated.
It has only been a few years since Gu Wei entered the industry, but looking at his current achievements, he is truly the chosen one in the domestic entertainment industry!
Singing, acting and even directing, there is nothing he can't do, and everything he shoots becomes a hit
I started as a small supporting role and worked my way up to become a so-called first-line female star. It took me so much hardship and so much time.
He seems to be able to easily achieve success that others can't achieve no matter how hard they try!"
Her rather jealous words made Wang Zhonglei beside her smile slightly.
"Bingbing, your natural beauty is something many people would envy. There's no need to belittle yourself."
As he said this, he also looked in the direction of Gu Wei.
"However, Gu Wei is indeed a little different. In all the years I've been in the entertainment industry, he's the only one who's risen so quickly and achieved such success.
He is a bit like Cheng Long during the heyday of Hong Kong Island. Even Andy Lau, Chow Hing Chi and Chow Yun Fat were far behind him when they were young."
"Brother Cheng Long started out as a stunt double when he was young, and only later did he gradually rise to the status of an international superstar.
But I heard that Gu Wei has never played a supporting role since his debut.
The first film I made was The Blade of the Assassin, which was considered a masterpiece of martial arts, and then it became unstoppable."
It seems that Fan Bingbing has carefully understood Gu Wei and knows a little about his acting experience.
Wang Zhonglei smiled.
“This is different, the times are different.
Most of the earliest stars in the entertainment industry came from ordinary families, and some even came from very difficult family conditions.
But now many celebrities come from very good families. Not to mention the second generation of stars, there are quite a few second generation of rich people.
Although I don't know much about Gu Wei, I heard that he invested tens of millions of yuan out of his own pocket to make movies when he was in his sophomore year. Later, he simply started his own company, and basically all the film and television dramas he participated in were invested by himself.
Apart from anything else, his family conditions are definitely not simple.
What kind of family would give tens of millions to a sophomore to make a movie that has a high probability of being a failure?
And wasn’t he recently ranked second among the “Top Ten Richest People Born After 1990”? With a net worth of 7.5 billion, wow.”
Wang Zhonglei shook his head as he spoke.
"That list definitely underestimates Gu Wei. We in the industry know best how much profit can be made from a blockbuster movie like Detective Chinatown 2.
I've learned that [Wei Ming Tian Xia]'s investment accounts for more than half of the total!"
When talking about Gu Wei's worth, a gleam of light flashed in Fan Bingbing's eyes, and the two walked inside while chatting.
"I heard that Gu Wei has a good relationship with Wanda's Mr. Wang?"
"I've heard about that, but I'm not sure what the specific relationship is. Huayi and Wanda are not getting along right now, and I haven't inquired into the details.
But considering their family conditions, it is normal for them to have some interactions with each other."
Looking at Gu Wei's resume since he entered the industry, most people in the industry regard him as a rich young man who has come out to venture into the entertainment industry.
Just like Lin Junjie, if he doesn’t sing well, he will have to go home and inherit a fortune of tens of billions.
Along the way, Gu Wei has been filming various TV series and movies, and what stands out is his generosity, including when collaborating with others. No matter how much money it is, I will invest!
Of course, in the end it was proved that Gu Wei’s vision was indeed very good, and the films he invested in basically made a lot of money.
In fact, considering Gu Wei’s current real net worth, it doesn’t matter whether he is from a wealthy family or not. His assets have already surpassed most wealthy families, and are increasing every minute.
The venue of the [Starlight Awards] was very luxuriously decorated, with a huge stage and long vertical tables in the front row. The guests sat on both sides of the tables.
Behind the guest area are the normal horizontal rows of audience seats.
When Gu Wei entered the venue, most of the guests had already taken their seats. He walked in from outside and saw many familiar faces along the way.
Everyone greeted him when they saw him, and Gu Wei smiled and waved in response.
Under the guidance of the staff, Gu Wei walked to the first seat at the long table facing the stage.
Opposite him was producer Hou Hongliang, and behind him sat Zhang Yi. At the first row of the adjacent table sat Zhao Liying and Lu Han. The first two people at the table in the row next to Producer Hou were Fan Bingbing and Wang Zhonglei from Huayi.
Everyone was an acquaintance, including Wang Zhonglei, who is now Gu Wei's partner. After coming over, Gu Wei greeted everyone one by one.
"Mr. Hou~"
"Gu Wei~
Haven't seen you for a while, you're getting more and more handsome! "
Hou Hongliang greeted Gu Wei happily.
"I heard that Nirvana in Fire 2 is going to start filming soon?"
"The preparations are almost complete, and filming will begin next year. Investors like you should come visit the set when you have time!"
The first season of Nirvana in Fire was a joint production between Noon Sunshine and Wei Ming Tian Xia. Although Noon Sunshine was the main producer, Gu Wei's company also owned the copyright.
Now that the second part is being prepared for filming, Wei Ming Tian Xia will naturally continue to invest.
With the first film as a success, even if the second film is not as good as the first one, it may still make more money.
"Of course, of course, I'll go when I have time."
"You've been focusing on movies this year, and the results are indeed brilliant, but don't give up on TV dramas."
“Haha~
Mr. Hou, you know, I don't overlap with other projects. I have limited time in a year. I was busy filming movies last year, so I don't have any TV series coming out this year. However, I have a fantasy drama coming out at the beginning of next year, so I hope it will do well.
After hearing what Gu Wei said, Hou Hongliang smiled and pointed at him.
"You, being so modest is a bit hypocritical. How can your Gu Wei's drama have bad performance? It's probably going to be another hit at the beginning of the year!"
"Mr. Hou, you are overpraising me."
Zhao Liying sat on the other side of Gu Wei. She was wearing a white long dress today, with her hair tied up. Her skin was white and tender, and her small round face was extremely cute.
Originally she had a sweet girl look, but her increasing popularity in recent years has given her a more strong woman vibe.
Zhao Liying sat upright, her big round eyes glancing towards Gu Wei from time to time, as if she wanted to say something to him, but seeing that Gu Wei was talking to Hou Hongliang with great interest, she didn't want to interrupt.
Please give me a monthly ticket!
