Chapter 745 Tool Man?
"Yang Mi is coming to visit the set?" He Landou also heard what Yang Dan said and was a little excited.
She was too young and had only been in the industry for a short time. Big stars like Yang Mi and Gu Wei were beyond her reach.
Gu Wei got up and went out to meet someone.
Xin Zhilei was calm and composed, crossing his legs and cracking some melon seeds on the table in front of him.
"Why are you so excited? Yang Mi is also your idol?"
He Landou was a little embarrassed: "That's not the case, it's just that I used to only see Yang Mi on TV, and I especially liked her "Eternal Love."
"I noticed that you are not excited when you see me. It seems that I am not famous enough," Xin Zhilei teased her with a smile.
"No, Sister Zhilei, I really like your role in Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace. Your acting was so great!" He Landou quickly explained.
"Okay, just kidding!
Now that you have entered the industry and become an actor, you will have many opportunities to work with big stars in the future. You don’t have to act like a fan chasing after everyone you see.”
Xin Zhilei has a carefree personality, but he's a very nice person.
On the other side, Gu Wei met Yang Mi who had just arrived at the crew.
"What a rare guest! Why did you come to visit me on set without even telling me in advance?"
Yang Mi wore a black Chanel-style jacket with a white blouse underneath, which formed a sharp contrast between her plump bust and slender waist.
She paired it with blue tight jeans, showing off her round buttocks and slender legs.
Wearing a pair of thick-soled white sneakers and a black baseball cap, he looks casual and fashionable.
Da Mimi has always had good taste in clothes.
"Why, you don't welcome me?
I didn’t come empty-handed, I brought a coffee cart and fruits for your crew.”
"Of course you're welcome. I thank Sister Mi on behalf of everyone!"
“That’s more like it.”
Gu Wei led Yang Mi inside, and the things she brought were naturally distributed by the staff.
"How long will you shoot this scene?"
"There are still more than ten days until the filming is finished. If you come later, you may not be able to see me."
After entering the lounge, Gu Wei introduced Xin Zhilei and He Landou to Yang Mi. Xiao Zhan came out after filming a scene and also came over to say hello.
The two of them sat down, and the others sensibly left to give them space to talk.
"Xiao Zhan, who is under your company, is very popular now!" Without paying attention to Xin Zhilei and He Landou, Yang Mi sighed as he watched Xiao Zhan leaving.
"They are indeed very popular. He and Zeng Shunxi have each received more than ten endorsements since the broadcast of The Untamed, and they have been constantly receiving various business resources.
Danmei-themed dramas are really popular, and the two of them have accumulated a lot of loyal fans thanks to one drama.
Moreover, these fans have strong spending power and are willing to spend money."
Gu Wei said lightly.
Yang Mi turned around and looked at Gu Wei with some envy.
"You made a lot of money by bringing out two top stars from one drama.
Based on their current popularity, I estimate that in the future, the income these two will bring in may be greater than that of all the artists in Jiaxing combined!"
Gu Wei thought about it and nodded in agreement.
“That’s true, it’s just the beginning.
You also know that once a traffic star is promoted, he will become a cash cow, let alone a top-tier star.
Male celebrities have many female fans, and these female fans are willing to spend money, so their income from endorsements is also high."
"After all these years of hard work, Jiaxing has only managed to produce one popular actress, while the others are basically third or fourth tier stars.
You're so good, you've created two top stars with just one drama!" Yang Mi exclaimed.
Gu Wei blinked.
"I think I'm the one who brought Reba to prominence. Eternal Love and My Glory were both produced by my company."
Yang Mi was a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry about these details. You are still a major shareholder of Jiaxing."
Gu Wei couldn't help laughing.
"[Lady Huzhu] is finished filming?
If you have time, come and visit me on set."
“The filming is finished, it was wrapped up some time ago.
I haven't been busy recently. Some time ago you said you were moving to Xiangshan, so I thought of coming over to visit you.
By the way, thank you too."
"Thank me for what?" Gu Wei was confused.
“Thank you for finding me an endorsement.
I have already signed a contract with [Honor of Kings] to become their new official spokesperson, and the official announcement will be made in a few days."
Gu Wei suddenly realized.
"This is a small matter.
The last time I went to Shanghai to attend an event, their marketing director proposed the idea of a star team and asked me if I had anyone to recommend.
I think you like playing games, so I naturally recommend you."
"It may be just a casual remark to you, but I have a real income of 24 million.
"Tengxun is definitely wealthy. My other endorsements usually pay 15-20 million RMB per two years, but they offered me a high price that I couldn't refuse."
Yang Mi was very excited when she said this. More than 20 million was not a small number for her. It was equivalent to a house in Beijing.
[Honor of Kings] itself is very well-known, and the fact that she is endorsed by Gu Wei has also contributed to her own fame.
She makes money and gains fame, a win-win situation.
Gu Wei was speechless when he saw Da Mimi’s happy face.
After thinking about it, I decided not to tell her. In fact, the fee for Gu Wei to endorse "Honor of Kings" was 80 million for two years.
When the two parties first started cooperating in 2016, the contract was 60 million for two years, and later the contract was renewed and increased to 80 million.
The money-making capacity of "Honor of Kings" is not inferior to Gu Wei's endorsement fee, but this price is almost the top endorsement price in the domestic entertainment industry. Even if the contract is renewed in the future, it is estimated that it will not be higher.
Celebrities have different levels of fame and status, so it is normal for their endorsement fees to vary even if they are spokespersons for the same brand.
Just like the main guests of "Running Man" at the beginning, Deng Chao earned 30 million per season, while Wang Zulan only earned 4 million.
After knowing the reason why Yang Mi came to visit the set, the two chatted for a while.
"I have to film soon, so I can't stay with you for too long."
"Want to have dinner together tonight?"
"Aren't you busy? Don't you have work tomorrow?"
Yang Mi's lips curled up slightly: "After the filming of [The Pearl Lady] is finished, I have no plans to join the crew for the time being.
I don’t have much work recently, so I can stay here with you for a few days.”
Gu Wei looked at Da Mimi's beautiful face, slender neck, and white and towering chest, and understood.
The other party's visit to the set was specifically to thank him for coming and sending him off from a thousand miles away.
"I'll find you after the show and have dinner together.
Which hotel are you staying in?" Gu Wei asked.
"I'll come straight to you when I get to Xiangshan today. I haven't booked yet."
Gu Wei thought about it.
"I'll ask Yang Dan to book it for you. I'll ask her to arrange it for you later."
Yang Mi definitely didn't come out alone.
However, if you don’t have a job, there may not be many people around you, at most a few assistants.
Da Mimi smiled and said, "I'll listen to you."
Gu Wei likes playing basketball and is good at it.
I used to play a lot when I was in school. After I entered the industry, I was busy with work, but I could occasionally play with Deng Chao, Lu Han and others.
Due to his physical fitness, his skills are quite good, especially ball control.
Over the years, he has developed good ball-handling skills.
Especially when it comes to catching the ball, even though his palms are not particularly big, he can hold the ball firmly in his hands because his fingers are strong.
Gu Wei has beautiful hands, with white and slender fingers, he could definitely be a hand model.
His rich experience enables him to have skilled techniques in using his hands, and he can grasp, hold and move freely.
After the crew arrived in Xiangshan, the filming schedule was not as tight as in Hengdian, especially there were fewer night scenes, and there was more free time every day.
After Gu Wei finished filming on the set during the day, he had dinner with Yang Mi, and then returned to the hotel to chat and discuss some life philosophy.
Gu Wei and Yang Mi are so familiar with each other that they are a perfect match.
"I'm leaving tomorrow."
It was late at night. After a workout, Yang Mi's hair was disheveled and she lay powerless on Gu Wei's chest.
"You've only been here for three days, and you're leaving so soon?"
Gu Wei gently stroked the thick hair and felt the soft touch of the chest.
"I work a lot, and it's not easy to take three days off. I can't delay it for too long."
"You have both money and fame now, so why stress yourself out so much? You can slow down a bit."
“I know, I’ve been thinking about what you advised me before.
If I cannot successfully transform in the future, I will try to develop behind the scenes.
Of course, unless it is absolutely necessary, I still like to be an actor.
I love the crowd and the fans cheering me on, and I love being in front of the lights and the camera."
"It's up to you." Gu Wei pushed Yang Mi's wavy hair aside and slid his big hand down her collarbone.
"What are your plans after filming this drama?"
Yang Mi raised her head slightly. After a period of rest, she slowly recovered some strength and her breathing became more even.
Gu Wei kept his hands still as he said, "After filming is finished, I'll go back to Beijing. There's something at the company that needs my attention. Then I'll go to Paris to attend this year's Autumn/Winter Fashion Week.
You know, I’m the global spokesperson for LV, so I can’t refuse this.”
"Then what?"
“Then I came back to join the film crew.”
Hearing this, Yang Mi became more cheerful.
"New movie? What's it called?"
"[Zhou Chu eliminated the three evils]."
"[Zhou Chu eliminated the three evils]?
The one from [Shishuo Xinyu]?
"Yes, it's a modern story, and the meaning is similar to the allusion~"
"Who did the heroine choose?"
Da Mimi supported Gu Wei's chest with both hands and slowly stood up, revealing the beautiful scenery on his chest.
Gu Wei knew what she meant and said with a smile: "Miss Mi, you are not suitable. The role is for a younger girl."
"Do you think I'm too old?" Yang Mi was a little unhappy.
"Sister Mi, you are obviously older, but I have never disliked it. I even like it very much." Gu Wei expressed his meaning with his eyes.
When Yang Mi heard his words, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, and she slightly puffed out her chest.
“Who did you use, then?
Is Zhang Tianai from your company?
No, she has a heroic look and cannot play the role of a little girl.
Nazar? Probably not. Although she has acted in two relatively good movies, her acting skills are really not good. She relies entirely on her looks to make a living.
Could it be Meng Ziyi who became popular this year?"
“No need to guess, Miss Mi.
You don't know her, but she's a not-so-famous female artist in my company, her name is Zhou Ye."
"Haha, of course I know her. She played the villain Wei Lai in Better Days.
Because her character was criticized by netizens for her poor character design, you even posted on Weibo to speak up for her.
"Mijie is indeed a 5G surfer among celebrities. Nothing that happens online can escape your eyes.
"Zhou Chu" is a purely male-oriented film, with all the roles going to the male lead. To be exact, there isn't really a female lead, and Zhou Ye's role doesn't have many scenes either." Gu Wei explained again.
Yang Mi also knew that Gu Wei would generally not change what he had decided, and he had never lied to her. It must be that the role was really not suitable for her.
But she was still a little unhappy.
"Gu Wei is constant, but female celebrities are constantly changing. Are you starting to promote a new generation of young female artists?"
"It's hard to say whether I'm promoting them or not, but I have to give my own artists more opportunities."
"You are such a good boss~"
Gu Wei smiled and said, "Of course, everyone says so."
Slightly dissatisfied, Yang Mi slowly leaned over and whispered in Gu Wei's ear, "Go on."
Gu Wei put his arms around her plump and smooth body, turned over and pressed her under him.
"Why do I feel like you didn't come here to thank me, Sister Mi?"
“What is that?”
"It's like you're tired from work, you come to me to relax for two days, recharge, and then continue working."
"Then you don't want to?" Yang Mi's beautiful eyes were charming and her baby voice was seductive.
"Uh~ I'm happy to help."
The next morning, Gu Wei went on stage as usual.
After a crazy night, Yang Mi didn't get up until noon.
Take a shower and ask your assistant to bring you a new set of clothes.
Having had a good sleep, she is now full of energy and feels refreshed.
Just like Gu Wei said, she did come to thank Gu Wei for the endorsement, but she also wanted to relax and have a rest.
Facts have proved that the effect is good, and I can devote myself to work with full energy again.
At noon, the crew of "Joy of Life".
Gu Wei was having dinner with other actors when his cell phone suddenly rang.
He opened it and took a look, and couldn't help laughing.
"You've done well these past three days. I'm very satisfied. Don't forget to look for me when you return to the capital after filming!"
Later, a red envelope was sent over.
After clicking it, I found it was 66.6.
"Is this what Laotie 666 meant?"
"Brother Wei, what did you say?" He Landou, who was having dinner with him, heard Gu Wei mumbling to himself.
"It's okay, I just saw an interesting video," Gu Wei said casually.
On November 18, the last shot was filmed and the first season of "Joy of Life" was declared completed.
At this time, "Better Days" had been released for 4 weeks and the total box office exceeded 2.3 billion.
However, the single-day box office has dropped to less than 10 million at this time, and it will be difficult to reach 2.4 billion until the movie is released.
The total box office of "Better Days" starring He Zhoudongyu in the original time and space was 1.558 billion. Due to the change of the male lead, the box office of Gu Wei's version was more than 800 million higher, and the Douban score was also slightly higher.
Gu Wei is much better than Si Zi in both acting and popularity. Although Zhou Dongyu is more famous than Zhang Zifeng, in terms of popularity, he may not be better than his sister.
The current results are quite normal.
