Chapter 8 Route
Life in the new semester is still uneventful, although many of my classmates and seniors in the film academy are eager for quick success and instant benefits.
But Gu Wei's mentality is still very stable.
Others are anxious to get into acting and think of all kinds of methods and channels to find acting roles, thinking about how to become famous as soon as possible.
There is nothing wrong with this. If you don't want to be famous, why do you study acting? Why not study computer science and become a programmer after graduation, even though it will cause hair loss?
But Gu Wei is different. He can stay in school with peace of mind because he has his own plans and foresight to rely on.
He knew in his heart that he would become famous sooner or later without any accidents, so there was no need to rush now.
Just remember to pay taxes on time and don't do anything illegal.
It’s relatively easy to get along in the entertainment industry.
Like some of my classmates, I have to run around film crews, build connections, play minor roles in plays, and play supporting roles with only a few lines.
What's the point? I've been reborn and if I still do this, it would be a waste of my life.
It’s not that this is a bad thing to do. It’s normal for an ordinary person or an ordinary actor to take this route.
If you act in more dramas, maybe one of your roles will become popular and attract the attention of big companies and big agents.
The next step is to add more resources, and perhaps we can rush from the 18th line to the 2nd or 3rd line. After consolidating for a few years, and seizing some good opportunities, we may be able to reach the 1st line.
However, this is the path for ordinary people and is not suitable for Gu Wei.
What route will Gu Wei take? He calls it the 'big sweet route'.
He wants to become the 'male version of Da Tiantian', of course not by learning from Da Tiantian to act in bad movies, but by learning her money tactics and spending money.
Da Tiantian was originally the chosen girl, with unlimited resources, but why she never became popular in the end? It was simply because she chose the wrong target.
She has terrible ability to choose films and has wasted a lot of money. Just look at what kind of crappy films she acted in when she first debuted.
[My Beautiful Boss], [Warring States], [The Great Wall], [From Vegas to Macau], etc.
If the movie does well at the box office it has nothing to do with her, but if it fails it's all her fault.
After all the effort, not only did the person fail to become popular, but his reputation was also ruined.
Later, I stopped spending money and accidentally made a movie called "Sito", which became a huge hit!
So resources are important, but vision is more important. Whether a business is successful or not depends on whether you have resources, but more important is whether you have the vision to seize good resources.
There is also someone who took the same route as her but achieved completely opposite results, such as Liu Tianxian.
When Tianxian debuted, she was a complete resource-rich girl. If she hadn't brought in money and financial support, how could she have played an important female supporting role in "The Story of a Noble Family" at the age of 15 with no acting experience at all.
The official statement was that the producer took a fancy to him. What did he take a fancy to? He took a fancy to the high salary. Could it be that he took a fancy to his acting skills?
During the filming of "The Golden Age", the male lead was dissatisfied with her because of her poor performance and too many cameras. He even complained about her during an interview after the filming.
A 15-year-old girl with no acting skills or experience can directly play the second female lead.
Then she appeared in a CCTV drama, a drama starring Zhang Da Hu Zi, in which Tian Long played Wang Yuyan and Shen Condor Heroes played Xiao Long Nu.
Who would believe that she earned this by her acting skills? It was definitely because of the investors' support, and her image also matched the requirements.
Let’s see if it is the same route as Da Tiantian in the early days, but Tianxian’s recent dramas are completely in line with her own style, plus the role of Zhao Linger, all three dramas have become a hit.
She was immediately hailed as a goddess in the hearts of the 80s and 90s generation. Then she went downhill for nearly 20 years, with all kinds of bad movies and bad performances. But there was nothing that could be done about her because she was thick-skinned. She came back to act in TV dramas and she was still the goddess in everyone's hearts.
Gu Wei also plans to follow their path, but he cannot learn from Da Tiantian, so he must learn from Liu Tianxian.
Doesn’t he have an idea of which dramas will be popular and which will be bad in the next 10 years?
By bringing money into the group in this way, not only can he become famous, but the invested funds can also generate benefits. It is a win-win situation. He won twice by himself, which is amazing.
Now everything is ready, just waiting for the funds to be in place. Judging from the development in the previous life, this day will not be too far away.
Now he goes to school every day, attends classes and plays basketball.
Waiting for my beautiful girlfriend Nazha to come back and have fun together.
He spent his days leisurely at school. He played basketball well. In addition to his classmates, he also met several alumni from other grades who often played basketball with him.
Among them are two celebrity faces, Zhang Yishan and Li Xian.
There is also Yang Zi, who is in the same class as Zhang Yishan and often watches him play basketball.
Gu Wei was playing basketball on the court that day.
"Gu Wei~, your phone is ringing!" Yang Zi shouted loudly next to the court.
Gu Wei heard the ball and said, "You guys play first, I'm going to answer a phone call."
As he said this, he lifted up his clothes to wipe the sweat from his head, and ran to Yang Zi in two or three steps.
"Thanks, little monkey." Yang Zi has a cheerful personality and is nicknamed Little Monkey. All her good friends call her that.
I picked up the phone and saw that it was Nazha calling, so I walked two steps to the side and answered the phone.
Two minutes later, Gu Wei came back and shouted towards the basketball court, "Yishan, go play, I have something to do and I'll leave first."
"Okay, let's play again next time." Zhang Yishan and the others also waved at him.
"Let's go, little monkey. Thank you for helping me get my things. I'll treat you to a meal when I have time."
Gu Wei patted Yang Zi's head and said with a smile.
"Hmph, don't pat my head, little Guzi~"
After hearing this, Gu Wei waved his hand and turned to walk towards the dormitory.
Yang Zi stared at his back for a while.
"He's handsome, you crazy fan" Zhang Yishan's voice came from the side
"Get lost and stay away."
After hearing this, Yang Zi pretended to kick him.
"It's a pity that he already has a girlfriend, and she's the most beautiful girl in his class."
Zhang Yishan said with a grin.
"I'm just admiring the handsome guy, go play your basketball!"
——
Gu Wei went back to change his clothes, picked up Nazha at the school gate, and found a restaurant near the school to eat.
While eating, Gu Wei noticed that Nazha didn't look very happy.
"What's wrong, dear? Are you tired from work recently?"
"I'm a little tired indeed. Mr. Cai found out about the last time I went to pick you up, and he gave me a good scolding."
Nazha said dejectedly.
"I'm sorry for getting you into trouble, baby. I'll do my best to help you later."
"You're so annoying. You always want to bully me. Can't you think of something else?"
Gu Wei looked at Nazha's face affectionately.
"But whenever I see your face, I can't think of anything. My mind goes blank. Honey, did you cast a spell on me?"
"What kind of curse is that? The more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes." Nazha laughed.
"It's the spell of love. I feel dizzy when I see you because the spell of love is spinning in circles."
"Such a chatterbox~"
It was another sleepless night, and Gu Wei certainly would not miss any opportunity for Nazha to return to school.
The next morning
Nazha stretched lazily and kept patting Gu Wei beside her.
"Stop messing around, I'm going to get up." Nazha said and started to put on her clothes.
"I'd better go by myself. Don't let our President Cai see you. President Cai is very dissatisfied with you. If he sees you, he will scold me again."
Gu Wei said, "She doesn't know me, and I haven't caused her any trouble. What's there to be dissatisfied about?"
Nazha looked at Gu Wei, her mouth open as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Anyway, don't let her see you. Okay, I'm leaving now."
After packing up, Nazha left the hotel alone.
