Chapter 111 Movie Premiere
It can be seen from this awards ceremony that the Golden Horse Awards has gradually changed from being the "big prize" of the entire Chinese film world to a "small prize" in the region.
After returning from Taiwan, Gu Wei continued his film promotion.
In addition to Shanghai, I also visited several major domestic markets such as Shenzhen, Guangdong, and Shancheng.
The day after he returned to the mainland, various media outlets rushed to report that he had won the Best New Actor Award at the 50th Golden Horse Awards.
#A mainland newcomer won the Best New Actor Award at the Golden Horse Awards! #
#The mainland actor won the Best Newcomer Award. Who can stop him from having a perfect start? #

Gu Wei was already very popular, and winning the Golden Horse Award made his popularity even higher.
As the film was screened nationwide, word of mouth about "Detective Chinatown" gradually spread.
Many netizens who have watched the movie posted online, praising the film as a high-quality film that combines comedy and detective elements.
It aroused the curiosity of countless netizens.
The publicity and promotion teams of China Film Group and Light Media have also begun to exert their efforts on online media and major print media.
It is said that "Detective Chinatown" is another excellent comedy film shot in Thailand after "Lost in Thailand". It also stars Wang Baoqiang and is expected to break the box office record of "Lost in Thailand".
Although the hype was a bit exaggerated, the popularity of "Detective Chinatown" has been further enhanced by the success of last year's "Lost in Thailand".
On December 2, after visiting several cities in the south, Gu Wei returned to the capital.
Today is the premiere of "The Four 2", directed by Chen Jiashang and starring Deng Chao, Liu Yifei, Collin Chou, Jiang Yiyan and others.
The "Four Famous Constables" series of films was independently produced by Guangguang. Given the current relationship between Gu Wei and Guangguang, Wang Changtian would of course invite him to attend the premiere.
Gu Wei had no reason to refuse. Besides, this was a movie starring Liu Yifei, and Gu Wei owed her a favor.
Thanks to the light, the premiere was star-studded, and many celebrities in the circle came specially to attend.
"Director Gu, thank you for coming to the premiere. Please help me spread good words in the media later!"
Wang Changtian saw Gu Wei coming and went to greet him.
"Boss Wang, we are all family, isn't this what I should do?
"I wish Mr. Wang a big box office success in advance," Gu Wei complimented.
"Haha, thanks for your good words."
Liu Yifei in the field saw Gu Wei and walked over with some surprise.
She was wearing a silver-white dress and had delicate makeup, giving off a graceful and elegant vibe.
"Mr. Wang." She first greeted Wang Changtian, and then said to Gu Wei with some excitement.
"Gu Wei, you're back to the capital so soon?"
"Director Gu, Yifei, you guys continue chatting. I'm going to go greet other guests." Wang Changtian said to them and walked away.
"I'm almost done with the roadshow. Mr. Wang invited me here, so I have to give him this honor."
The two had just separated from Taiwan a few days ago. At that time, Liu Yifei knew that Gu Wei had been busy promoting the movie recently, so she didn't mention the premiere to him.
"Yifei, is this your friend? Can you introduce her?"
Jiang Yiyan saw the situation on Liu Yifei's side, walked to her side and asked her with a smile.
She was wearing a black and white plaid skirt that only reached her thighs, revealing two straight, white, long legs, making her look particularly sexy.
Liu Yifei glanced at her.
"This is my friend Gu Wei. You should have heard of his name. He's very popular recently.
He’s also a director and has a movie coming out soon.”
"This is my classmate, Jiang Yiyan, who is also one of the actors in the movie."
Designer Jiang, Gu Wei knows this.
Jiang Yiyan should be one of the first people in the entertainment industry to ruin his character.
You say that as a celebrity, it's fine for you to create a volunteer teaching persona. But you create an architect persona, something so professional, do you think everyone is stupid?
What's more, in today's Internet society, you can find out the truth about anything you want to know.
I don’t know whether the idea was her own or given to her by the team.
Gu Wei had a gentle smile on his face.
"Hello, I'm Gu Wei."
"Hello, Director Gu, I'm Jiang Yiyan. I'm very happy to meet you. I hope you'll take good care of me in the future."
The two people shook hands gently.
Jiang Yiyan looked very enthusiastic.
After Liu Yifei's introduction, she started chatting with Gu Wei enthusiastically, making Liu Yifei look like a spectator.
Seeing that Liu Yifei looked a little unhappy, Gu Wei hurriedly said to them
"Sister Yifei, Miss Jiang, the premiere is about to begin. I'm going to take a seat now. We can talk again when we have a chance."
After saying that, he went to the seat assigned to him by the staff.
Soon the premiere began.
Gu Wei's visit to today's premiere was well worth it. Throughout the entire event, what impressed him most wasn't the screening of "The Four 2" or the several stunning female stars on stage.
It’s Deng Chao!
There was a game session at the premiere, where the loser among the actors would be punished and have to perform a show.
Except for Deng Chao, the other three were women, so Deng Chao was naturally embarrassed to win.
There is a whip and a steel pipe as props on the stage, and the performance requires the use of these two props.
Everyone thought that Deng Chao would be able to deal with it in a few strokes and it would be over.
Unexpectedly, he was posing, bending his waist and shaking his hips, performing an extremely professional pole dance.
The whole audience burst into laughter.
Surprisingly, when Deng Chao was doing a hip-sinking movement, he used too much force and tore his pants. He had to hold his buttocks together and dared not turn his back to the audience anymore.
In a hurry, he asked his assistant to find a coat, but unexpectedly the coat had a slit at the back.
The audience burst into laughter one after another.
The story structure and filming quality of "The Four 2" are similar to those of the first film.
With the success of the first film, the second film will not be a box office hit after its release, but it will not lose money either.
After the premiere, the media gave a mediocre review the next day.
It's not a bad movie, but it doesn't offer any surprises either.
On December 6, Friday, "The Four" was released nationwide. On the day of its release, it accounted for 29.7% of the national screenings and grossed 26.48 million yuan that day.
It became the national box office champion that day.
Over the weekend, the box office of "The Four 2" was 35.21 million and 26.74 million respectively.
The filming rate and box office performance began to decline.
On December 9, the premiere ceremony of "Detective Chinatown" was officially held.
The location is Wanda Cinema in Beijing.
Through the invitation of China Film, Light Media and Wanda, a small number of big and small stars in the circle who are in Beijing at this time have come. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a gathering of stars.
Major domestic media, famous film critics, and internet celebrities are also among the invited guests.
In the end, only a very small number of tickets were available, and they were all snapped up by Gu Wei's fans in the first place.
Some friends in Gu Wei’s circle, such as Yang Zi, Zhang Yishan and some of his classmates at school.
People from the crew of [The Sword of the Assassin] and some people he knew from the crew of [The Ancient Sword] were among those he invited.
The host of the premiere was Liu Yan from Guangguang, who looked particularly sexy in a red dress today.
Gu Wei compared them silently and it seemed that Da Mimi was better. He wondered if Sister Mi still had room for growth.
Although Liu Yan is known as a porn star, she just has a good figure and dresses sexy, she doesn't really do anything fancy.
She still has a good reputation in the circle.
She is also a host by profession and her professional abilities are impeccable.
Liu Yan first briefly introduced some basic information about the film's producer, distributor, etc., and then invited the main creative staff to come on stage.
Gu Wei, Bao Qiang and other actors in the movie all came on stage wearing dark green windbreakers.
Everyone stood in a row, looking a bit like a detective.
The actors on the stage introduced themselves and expressed their blessings for the film.
Gu Wei finally took the microphone.
"Thank you all so much for coming here today to attend the premiere of the film Detective Chinatown.
Last year I participated in a movie called "The Sword of Assassin".
During the filming process, some small ideas would pop up in my mind from time to time, and I also like to read some detective novels.
Later, when I had time, I put some of my inspirations together and finally wrote the script for "Detective Chinatown".
At the beginning of this year, I gathered a group of excellent actors and completed this film with their help.
Because it was my first time making a movie and I was relatively young, many people were not optimistic about me during the initial promotion of the movie, and some even sentenced it to death before it was even released.
But I don’t care. I am a filmmaker and making movies is my dream.
Just like what I wrote in the song, the world is so big, I always want to fly, so what if I go crazy for my dream!
I believe that facts will tell everyone that dreams deserve respect!
Thank you everyone! "
