Chapter 578 I still want to work with you when I grow up
As soon as the Bazaar Charity Night ended, all kinds of public opinion were rampant.
There were cheers, curses, and fans praising their idols. There were several hot searches just about the Bazaar Charity Night.
As expected, the first round of firepower attack was the C position issue. Zhang Shaohan was ridiculed by the crowd because he stood among a group of big names.
On her right were Li Bingbing, Yao Chen, Fan Bingbing, and Yang Mi, and on her left were Liu Jialing, Zhang Ziyi, and Li Yuchun. No matter how you looked at it, it wasn't her turn to stand in the middle, so netizens mocked her for not being able to position herself correctly.
Some netizens also defended Zhang Shaohan, saying that she was pushed over and did not intentionally grab the C position.
However, in the live video, Su Mang called out to Zhang Shaohan to squat down twice, but she ignored him both times. So it is unknown whether she didn't hear him or just took advantage of the situation to highlight herself.
In addition, Su Mang, the organizer of Bazaar Charity Night, was also severely criticized by netizens.
Her performance at the gala this year was really not good. For such a large-scale charity gala with so many people, Su Mang, as the organizer, yelled and screamed like an old lady collecting parking fees.
Especially the group photo session, not only was it not arranged in advance, but the on-site organization and coordination capabilities were also very poor.
When talking about group photos, we have to mention the friendship between female stars as fake sisters, and the undercurrents in the world of fame and fortune that are visible to the naked eye. The excitement of the photos keeps the attention of the onlookers for a long time.
Who has a good relationship with whom, who has a grudge against whom, the relationships between these female stars can be filmed into a real-life version of "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem".
Finally, it is the donation stage that everyone is concerned about.
On the second day of the charity night, Bazaar announced the list of donors for the gala. Those who donated were praised, while those who did not donated were inevitably ridiculed for eating and drinking for free.
Although Zhang Shaohan was attacked by many netizens, at least she donated 700,000 yuan for a team of ambulances, so many people also defended her, saying that since she donated money and took the center position, so what?
The couple Lin Xinru and Huo Jianhua were criticized the most for not donating money. They didn't donate a penny last year and they are still reluctant to donate this year.
Because of the Zhou Jie incident, Ruby Lin, who now has a bad reputation, is even less liked by netizens, and her husband Wallace Huo is also disliked.
This year's Bazaar Charity Night was truly fantastic. It was far more enjoyable than watching some palace drama.
The group photo session was hilarious. Yao Chen and Yang Mi looked so innocent. One stood between the two Bingbings, and the other stood between Fan Bingbing and Qin Hailu. Neither of them was willing to do so. They had awkward expressions the whole time, haha!
The five beauties from Ode to Joy didn't seem particularly close. Wang Ziwen remained expressionless throughout, looking displeased. Jiang Xin was clearly standing a distance from the others, and it was quite ironic that they sang "Sisters" together.
[I feel that the Times Sisters cannot be separated. Da Mimi is doing too well, and her status is too different from the other three, so there is no competition for resources.
It seems that her former best friends like Shishi and Tangtang all broke up due to competition.
[Socially close, they hang out with whoever is popular, no surprises at all.]
[International Zhang is really scheming. He takes off clothes for photos and has a lot of experience.
No wonder Liu Jialing wore big sunglasses the entire time; I'm sure he'd be rolling his eyes.]
[I started looking for Gu Wei from the photo shoot. The director gave him two shots, and it turned out that he was hiding at the very edge.
He kept looking inside with a smile on his face. Was he eating melons right there? That's hilarious.
[Jingtian has changed a lot with his short hair. He was very quiet when taking photos, like an outsider.
But she has a very good relationship with Gu Wei. She spent 2 million to buy a men's watch that she can't use. She is really a "rich" flower in the world!
[The current price of Gu Wei's Nautilus is just over 1 million. Jing Tian spent an extra 1 million. He is indeed not short of money!
But why do I feel like Da Mimi and Zhao Liying seem to be looking down on each other during the bidding process?]
[It's not normal for them to look down on each other. They are both top actresses in the field of TV dramas and the competition is fierce.
Although "Eternal Love" and "Princess Agents" aired on different schedules in the first half of the year, they were still being compared to each other. The title of "TV Drama Queen" isn't just a title; it involves tangible interests!
[Deng Chao has learned his lesson. Last year he did not donate money and was mocked by netizens, but this year he donated a team of ambulances.
But what's going on with Lin Xinru and her husband? They posted selfies on Weibo to show off their expensive jewelry, but they didn't spend a penny at the charity gala.
She was just there to eat, drink, and walk the red carpet. With such a bad character, it's a shame Zhou Jie has been scolded for so many years!
My Yingbao is the best. She donated 700,000 yuan last year and 700,000 yuan this year. She is a kind person with a beautiful heart.

"Brother, is the entertainment industry so complicated? It seems like everyone's relationships are so messed up."
On the set of "The Wandering Earth", Zhao Jinmai was browsing the news about the Bazaar Charity Night on her phone.
"Haha, these are just minor details. Act well and don't do anything illegal. The rest is up to your heart."
Gu Wei touched Zhao Jinmai's head.
Others may still have to work hard to think about how to become famous, but Zhao Jinmai doesn’t have to worry about this problem at all. She has a very good foundation and her future is basically bright.
"Your brother is right. In the final analysis, making it in the entertainment industry still depends on your ability. If you have works, everything will be fine. Otherwise, everything is just castles in the air." Wu Jing also added.
"There's nothing wrong with Mai Mai. She's very talented and has been honing her acting skills since she was young. As long as she can keep up the momentum, she has a promising future."
"Brother, I feel proud if you always praise me like this." Zhao Jinmai felt a little embarrassed.
"Maimai will definitely choose one of the three major film and television academies in China for the college entrance examination. Where do you plan to go to college?" Wu Jing asked casually.
"It depends on which one I can get into, but I still want to go to the Central Academy of Drama." After saying that, Zhao Jinmai turned to look at Gu Wei and stuck out her tongue. "Sorry, brother."
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. I definitely support you in working on your acting skills.
In fact, child stars are most afraid of being restricted by their childhood performance habits.
Because you have been involved in filming for a long time and have rich experience, you have formed your own performance methods early on.
When you are young, you will feel that it is very easy because of your image and other factors. But when you grow up, if you still cannot break out of your comfort zone, your acting skills will definitely decline.
Because the image has changed, the corresponding performance method must be adjusted.
This is also a problem faced by many child stars."
Gu Wei knows many child stars, including Yang Zi, Zhang Yishan, and Guan Xiaotong, who are all household names at a young age.
Among them, Zhang Yishan has a limited range of roles due to her image issues, while Yang Zi has recently been developing towards becoming a top female idol.
Guan Xiaotong was the most promising one when she was young. She was talented and had spirit. Unfortunately, when she grew up and started acting, she still acted like she did when she was a child. It seemed like the four years she spent at Beijing Film Academy were wasted. Not only did her acting skills not improve at all, but she also lost the spirit she had when she was a child.
"I will study hard and try to be able to film with you again." Zhao Jinmai nodded heavily.
"Haha. Mai Mai, you don't want to play lovers with your brother in the future, do you?" Wu Jing joked with a smile.
Zhao Jinmai's face turned slightly red when her thoughts were spoken, and she felt a little embarrassed.
"Then when I grow up I will definitely play in a romantic drama. I can't just play brother and sister then, I have to play lovers."
Gu Wei didn't care and encouraged her with a smile, "Keep going, we'll work together again when you grow up."
Less than a week after returning to Qindao, Gu Wei had finished filming all his scenes in "The Wandering Earth". His sister Zhao Jinmai also finished filming at the same time.
The crew prepared a sumptuous wrap-up banquet for the two of them.
That night, Ning Hao, Huang Bo and Chen Teng from next door also came over to see Gu Wei off, but in fact they just came to eat and drink for free.
"Director Guo, how long will it take for the crew to finish filming?"
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Gu Wei turned to look at Guo Fan beside him.
"The space station scenes will probably take about another month to shoot, and should be finished before November." Guo Fan thought for a moment and replied.
"Is the crew having no problems with funding?"
"It seems to be sufficient now, but after all, we haven't started post-production yet, and I'm not sure if the budget left is enough." Guo Fan did not say anything definite.
As a director, he certainly hopes that the post-production effects of the film will be as realistic and grand as possible.
However, special effects are the most expensive thing, and if you want good effects, you have to invest real money.
“Don’t worry about the money. I’ve said before that if the investment is not enough, I can add more and get the best.
We are going to open a new era for Chinese science fiction films!" Gu Wei patted his chest proudly.
He is not stupid or rich. The finance of the crew is composed of personnel from China Film Group Corporation and Weiming Tianxia. Gu Wei is not worried that Guo Fan will embezzle his money.
Moreover, the facts have proved that Guo Fan's character is trustworthy. He has dreams and is not obsessed with small profits in front of him.
Since Gu Wei has joined the "The Wandering Earth" project, he naturally wants to make this movie perfect.
In terms of plot, he slightly changed the character of the male protagonist Liu Qi to make the character more likable. In terms of special effects, he also hopes that this version of "The Wandering Earth" can surpass the original and be even better!
"Don't worry, I will do my best to make the movie as good as possible!" As a beggar, Guo Fan's favorite word to hear is "add money".
"Let's raise our glasses together to congratulate Gu Wei on finishing the filming and thank Mr. Gu for his generosity!" Guo Fan, in a good mood, raised her glass happily and even changed the way she addressed him from Gu Wei to Mr. Gu.
During the preparation stage of "The Wandering Earth", because of Gu Wei's identity as an investor, Guo Fan always respectfully addressed him as Mr. Gu, but after joining the crew to film, he usually called him by his name, or called him Teacher Gu Wei.
Because in the crew, Gu Wei’s identity is an actor, not the boss of a film and television company.
Moreover, if the director used a loudspeaker to shout "Mr. Gu, do it again" during filming, it would be too embarrassing, and Gu Wei would not agree.
After everyone raised their glasses and took a sip, Ning Hao looked at Guo Fan enviously.
"This is Lao Guo's first time making a science fiction film, and he has a generous sponsor. This kind of treatment is enviable for any director."
"With Director Ning's current status, many people want to invest in your movies. Why should you envy me?" Guo Fan smiled. He actually felt that he was very lucky.
"That's because I've been successful before, and I'm good at making comedies, so everyone knows that investing in my movies will make money.
When I was filming "Crazy Stone", Mr. Liu Dehua originally promised to invest 6 million yuan, but later because of the company's financial constraints, he only invested 3 million yuan.
3 million, you can imagine how difficult it is to shoot a movie.
Bozi knows this best." Ning Hao was filled with emotion as he thought about the difficulties he faced before becoming famous.
Huang Bo nodded.
"Director Ning was right, our crew was really poor at that time.
I remember my pay was 10,000, Wang Xun 20,000, Liu Hua who played Dao Ge 25,000, the male lead Guo Tao 100,000, and Xu Zheng acted for free.
"Why is Teacher Xu Zheng performing for free?" Zhao Jinmai asked curiously.
"Haha, this is actually quite interesting. When I was preparing for the film, I didn't ask Xu Zheng to play the role of Dao Ge's girlfriend. I asked his wife Tao Hong to play the role of Dao Ge's girlfriend.
But Teacher Taohong from our small crew didn't like it at all. Instead, Xu Zheng, who had nothing to do at home at the time, was particularly interested in the script after reading it. He took the initiative to call me and said that he wanted to play the role of the real estate developer in the script.
I was also in a particularly difficult situation because the crew had no budget left.
Although Xu Zheng was not as famous as he is now, he was still a big name.
There was no other way, so I told him that he could act if he wanted, but the crew had no money left and couldn't pay him.
Unexpectedly, Xu Zheng agreed directly and agreed to perform for free."
Ning Hao explained to Zhao Jinmai in detail.
"It turns out that filming [Crazy Stone] was so difficult. It's really not easy to get such a good effect with 3 million yuan." Zhao Jinmai sighed.
“The risk of investing in movies is actually much higher than that of general commercial projects, especially for some new directors, who will lose money in 90% of cases.
Although Director Guo has shot a relatively successful movie before, that was a youth romance film. Now shooting a science fiction film is a brand new challenge.
Under such circumstances, there are still people who support him with all their might and pay 400 million RMB to pay for his dream.
Which director wouldn’t envy me?
"What Director Ning said is absolutely right. My first film, Wolf Tooth, was a flop, and when I was filming Wolf Warrior, no one invested in it.
It wasn’t enough even after emptying the family’s savings, and in the end I almost had to sell the house.
Fortunately, your brother generously donated money, and [Wolf Warrior 1] also did its best not to lose money.
That’s why we have the current blockbuster “Wolf Warrior 2.”
When talking about raising investment for filming, Wu Jing also shed tears of bitterness.
"Okay, everyone, if we continue talking, it will become a reminiscing meeting. Let's just drink." After hearing what Wu Jing said, Gu Wei raised his glass with a smile, and the atmosphere at the table became lively again.
"What's wrong? You don't look very happy?" After the wrap-up party, Gu Wei led Zhao Jinmai to the hotel.
"Thinking that we will be separated tomorrow, I feel reluctant." Zhao Jinmai kicked a stone on the road, looking a little depressed.
"Little girl," Gu Wei smiled and rubbed her head.
"I'm sixteen, not a child anymore." Zhao Jinmai retorted dissatisfiedly.
In fact, she is just fifteen years old now, sixteen in lunar age.
"Okay, okay, you're not a child anymore. Go back and study hard and act like an adult."
"Can I come and play with you when I have time in the future?" Zhao Jinmai blinked her big eyes and waited for Gu Wei's answer nervously.
"Of course, I'm your brother."
