Chapter 693 Invested some money
#Gu Wei once again won the Weibo King title, and Yang Zixi, a top star of the post-90s generation, won the Queen title! #
The entire Weibo Night was broadcast live, and as the awards were presented one by one, various related hot searches also appeared on the Internet.
Especially the Weibo hot search list, which is almost all occupied by various terms about tonight's Weibo Night.
The final awards of Weibo King and Queen were undoubtedly the highlight of tonight's ceremony. As soon as the results came out, related news immediately topped the hot search list.
[Congratulations, brother, for winning the Weibo King title again. You are the king of domestic entertainment, our eternal king!]
[The stars are shining brightly at Weibo Night, but my brother shines like the sun. I will always love you!]
It's no surprise that Gu Wei won the Weibo King title for the second time, but this year's Queen went to Yang Zi!
[I don’t think Yang Zi is pretty at all. I feel like her looks are too ordinary among female celebrities~]
Come on, Yang Zi has been so popular this year, with two hit dramas, "Go Go Squid!" and "Ashes of Love," and the internet has been flooded with press releases and news about her for the better part of six months. It's only natural that she's been called the "Queen of Weibo"!
I don't watch TV dramas much, but I think Yang Zi is ugly. I don't understand how she and Gu Wei could accept an award together.
[If you don't watch TV shows, don't you go online? Don't you have friends and colleagues? I don't believe you're not aware of the popularity of "Go Go Squid!" and "Ashes of Love." Just call haters haters!]
[Tong Nian and Jin Mi are both the best heroines in my heart. Yang Zi has grown up from Xiaoxue to adulthood, from a cocoon to a butterfly. Zi Mi will always support you! ]
Gu Wei and Yang Zi, it's totally normal. They are the most popular male and female stars this year, so it's not surprising that they won the King and Queen awards!
It's a pity that "The Story of Minglan" was broadcast too late, otherwise the title of Queen would definitely go to Liying. In this way, the male and female protagonists of "The Story of Minglan" would become King and Queen respectively, which would also be a wonderful story!

After Weibo Night ended, Gu Wei declined some invitations from friends to get together, and after leaving the venue, he drove back to his home in Jinmao Mansion.
Not long after, Da Mimi arrived.
Just as they said at the party, the two had a midnight snack, but because they were afraid of gaining weight, Yang Mi suggested that they exercise after the meal.
As her closest partner, Gu Wei would certainly not refuse such a request.
The two of them immediately started a very fat-reducing exercise.
Early the next morning.
Yang Mi sat at the dining table and ate breakfast.
Her hair was simply tied up and draped behind her head. She had just woken up and washed up and had no time to put on makeup. However, she was naturally beautiful with delicate features, so her bare face did not affect her beauty.
And after a good night's rest, Yang Mi now looks rosy-cheeked and in very good spirits.
She was wearing a loose and baggy white T-shirt, which bulged out her chest. The bottom of the shirt reached her thighs, and her two long, white legs were crossed together, which looked very fleshy and looming, which was very tempting.
Yang Mi took a bite of the bread in her hand, then picked up the cup and took a sip of milk. She stretched out her pink tongue and licked the milk stains at the corner of her mouth.
Gu Wei, who was eating beside her, couldn't help but feel warm in his heart when he saw this scene.
Da Mimi really knows how to bring out her alluring side.
"Come on, sister Mi, let's have breakfast. You're so sexy, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
Yang Mi rolled his eyes at Gu Wei while chewing the food in his mouth.
"Who told you to tear my skirt? You don't have any of my clothes here, so I can only grab a T-shirt from the closet to put on."
"Well, this is not my fault. Your skirt is of poor quality. I didn't use much force." Gu Wei said casually, "Anyway, your house is downstairs."
"What happened downstairs? I can't go downstairs in this outfit. Go get me some clothes later."
"That's fine~" Gu Wei agreed.
"Xiaoming is holding a one-year-old birthday party for his child next week. Will you go?" Huang Xiaoming also invited Gu Wei after he came back from receiving the award last night.
Gu Wei picked up the fried egg from the plate, took a bite, and thought about it.
"I can't go. My new drama starts filming in Wuhan on the 15th, and I have to fly there in two days."
Yang Mi nodded. Gu Wei had told her about his new movie before.
"By the way, I heard from Director Lu Yang that after you turned him down, he cast Lei Jiayin as the male lead."
"I know this. Lei Jiayin is a good actor, and we worked together on [Asian Blade 2] before, so it's normal to choose him.
However, he is not playing the novelist Lu Kongwen in the drama, but another male character Guan Ning who connects the film’s plot.”
"Guan Ning? But I heard Lei Jiayin plays the male lead."
“Yes, if I take this role, Lu Kongwen will be the male lead.
Now that I’m not acting, Lei Jiayin will play Guan Ning, and Guan Ning will become the male lead.” Gu Wei said as a matter of course.
Whether you are the protagonist in a play or not, the most important thing is the amount of screen time you have, but this is entirely up to the director.
“In fact, this movie is really good, with wild imagination. There are almost no movies of the same type made in China.
If we could act together, the box office would definitely be very good." Yang Mi still feels regretful.
“Although I didn’t take up this role, I am now one of the investors.
"When the movie is released, there's a high probability that the producer's name will be attached to it," Gu Wei said with a smile.
"When did you invest money?" Yang Mi was a little surprised.
“When Senior Brother Lu invited me to film, I said I didn’t have time, but if I needed funding, I could invest some money.
You also know that "Assassination of Novelist" is a film that places great emphasis on special effects. Brother Lu's current idea is to get as much funding as possible for the filming, so he accepted part of my funding."
[Assassination of Novelist] is a good movie. The original version grossed over 1 billion yuan, and the cost was around 300 million yuan. It definitely didn't lose money, so Gu Wei casually invested 30 million yuan to support Lu Yang's career.
"Not only did I invest, I also recommended Peng Yuchang to play Lu Kongwen."
"Peng Yuchang?" Yang Mi thought for a moment.
"The 'yellow-haired' character in [Dying to Survive]?"
"Yes, Peng Peng has become quite famous this year. 'Dying to Survive' brought him a lot of fame, and he was nominated for the Best Actor at the Golden Horse Awards for 'An Elephant Sitting Still'.
Of course, you also know what happened this year. From now on, the works and artists under my company will no longer participate in the Golden Horse Awards selection.
He is currently filming a comedy film directed by Tian Yusheng called "A Little Wish," and just as he finished filming there, he joined the crew of "Assassination of Novelist."
After hearing what Gu Wei said, Yang Mi was a little envious of Peng Yuchang's resources in the film industry.
Although her fame and popularity are far greater than the other party, her film resources seem to be not as good as Peng Yuchang's.
"Do you like drinking red wine?" Gu Wei suddenly asked while they were chatting about movies.
"I drink a little occasionally, but I don't really have any hobbies. What's wrong?"
"You know I have a private winery in France. A few days ago, I sent over a batch of bottled red wine. I'm giving you some, as well as some for my uncle and aunt."
Gu Wei brought back a lot of red wine from his European vacation a few days ago, and gave some to his good friends.
However, it is still a drop in the bucket compared to the storage in his estate's wine cellar.
"Okay, I can have a drink before going to bed tonight.
You can take my parents there yourself, they are all in this neighborhood anyway."
"Hey, that's not a big deal. My uncle and aunt have to prepare food to entertain me when I come over. I'll have someone put it here so it's convenient for them to come and get it."
Yang Mi rolled his eyes at him and said nothing more.
After Weibo Night ended, Gu Wei stayed in the company for two days, and then flew to Wuhan to prepare for the filming of "Life Events".
Rao Xiaozhi and other crew members arrived at the filming location early, and some of the venues that had been selected previously were also set up.
Gu Wei joined the crew two days in advance, one to participate in the script reading organized by the main creators of the crew, and the other to go to a real funeral home to observe life.
He attaches great importance to this film and hopes to complete an excellent work in the best condition.
The story of [Major Events in Life] is actually quite simple.
The story is about funeral director Mo Sanmei who participated in a funeral shortly after being released from prison and met the orphan Wu Xiaowen.
Xiaowen's tragic experience aroused Mo Sanmei's sympathy, and because of the accident he took care of Xiaowen for a period of time.
Although Mo Sanmei and Xiaowen are not related by blood, their intimacy with each other is even greater than that of relatives.
In the end, they became each other's rescuers and brighteners of life.
The male lead Mo Sanmei played by Gu Wei is a very distinctive character, which is a big challenge for him.
On the second day of joining the crew, the script was read together and Gu Wei also met the other main creators.
Gu Wei hardly interfered with the casting of Rao Xiaozhi's version of "Life Events". The director made all the decisions. He took a final look at the list of actors and felt that there was no problem.
The second male lead is Wang Ge, who was coincidentally chosen as the original actor.
Not surprising actually.
In "Life Events", the second male lead Wang Jianren is Mo Sanmei's good friend and business partner.
His role is the fat friend that always exists around the protagonist in traditional film and television dramas.
So we can’t look for a handsome guy for this role, and he has to be a little chubby.
Wang Ge is not completely unrelated to "Wei Ming Tian Xia". When the company first filmed "Yu Zui", he played "Mouse" in it.
After finishing the filming, Wang Ge had more or less established good relationships with some people in the company. He got the news about the casting for "Life Events" this time, and his chubby appearance immediately caught the eye of Rao Xiaozhi.
The second female lead, Yin Baixue, is also like a family member to Mo Sanmei. The requirements for this role are that she should be around 30 years old, not too beautiful, but have certain acting skills.
These two criteria eliminated all the actresses under Gu Wei.
In the end, the actress Xin Zhilei who came to audition won the role with her acting skills.
Without the role of "Ding Baiying", she is still a little-known figure in the circle. Because she is good at her job and gets paid low, she plays supporting roles in various film and television dramas.
She is not the kind of beautiful woman who is stunning at first sight. She has a sophisticated look and a sense of story, and it is easy for her to act like an ordinary person through makeup.
