Chapter 907: I am afraid of my best friend's hard life, and I am also afraid of her driving a Land Rover
From the perspective of the script and story alone, "Extreme Rescue" is not that good, and is not as outstanding as Wen Muye's previous works.
However, the action scenes in this movie are definitely the most exciting and thrilling of all the movies he has made.
Yuan Heping's strength is unquestionable. The fighting scenes he designed are very realistic and the sensory experience is maximized.
Although the plot of the movie is simple, it has a brisk pace and highlights the exciting action scenes. He is confident that the final film will be no less effective than Gu Wei's global hit "John Wick 4", and will become a new benchmark for Chinese-language action movies.
[Extreme Rescue] is a movie by Gu Wei, but as a director, Wen Mu also attaches great importance to this film.
Because this is his first film to be released in the global market, and due to Gu Wei's own box office appeal, "Exit" will most likely sell well in the international market.
By then he will be considered a truly international director.
After more than half a year of preparation and more than three months of intense filming, the film is finally completed and Wen Mu is in a very good mood.
I drank a few more glasses at the wrap-up party and was a little tipsy by the time it was over.
Gu Wei was also toasted by others, but with his alcohol tolerance, he didn't feel much.
After the banquet, Yang Chaoyue followed Gu Wei back to his room and started to busy himself inside and outside.
I filled the bathroom with hot water for bathing and sorted out my boss's clothes, as if I were back in the days when I was a life assistant.
"You don't need to do that. Someone will clean it up when you leave tomorrow."
Gu Wei stood by the door frame, holding a cup of honey water prepared by his assistant.
"It's okay, I'll get it done quickly and it will be convenient when I leave tomorrow." Yang Chaoyue folded the last piece of clothing and put it in the suitcase beside him.
She had been Gu Wei's personal assistant for two years, and these jobs were familiar to her.
After packing his clothes, Gu Wei looked at his assistant, whose hair was a little messy after finishing her work, and stretched out his hand to her with a smile.
"I just checked, the water temperature is just right. Let's take a bath together. It's very comfortable~" This was his reward for accepting the service.
Yang Chaoyue blinked her big eyes and was a little shy, but still obediently held Gu Wei's hand.
More than an hour later.
After taking a shower, the two changed into comfortable pajamas and lay on the sofa in the living room. Yang Chaoyue lay diagonally in Gu Wei's arms, her little face flushed, her eyes slightly narrowed as she watched the TV series playing opposite.
"Are you following this drama [Daily Life of a Lady]?" Gu Wei watched the drama together, his warm big hands naturally placed on the slender waist of his assistant in his arms, feeling the wonderful touch of her smooth skin.
“Yes, I started watching it when it first aired a few days ago, and Oda’s acting was really good!
The show's broadcast data is also very good, and its reputation and popularity are very high!"
Yang Chaoyue spoke weakly. The intense exercise just now had consumed a lot of her energy.
Gu Wei nodded.
"Shortly after its premiere, [Daily Life of a Lady] gained over 10,000 views on iQIYI and topped multiple charts including Yunhe, Dengta, Maoyan, and Guduo.
If nothing unexpected happens, this drama will win the annual broadcast championship on iQiyi and the annual championship of comedy TV series in the domestic entertainment industry! "
The popularity of "Daily Life of a Lady" was not beyond his expectation. The story setting of this drama was very appealing, and with the fame of Tian Xiwei and Xiao Zhan, it was hard not to be a hit.
"With the blessing of this drama, Xiaotian's fame and popularity are getting higher and higher!" Yang Chaoyue said quietly.
She and Tian Xiwei are good friends, but as the old saying goes, "I'm afraid of my best friend's hard life, and I'm also afraid of her driving a Land Rover." Girls, especially young female celebrities who have a vague competitive relationship, can't help but have this kind of mentality even if their relationship is good.
[Wei Ming Tian Xia] doesn't have many female artists under its banner, but it does have quite a few circles.
Nazha and Zhang Tianai, the two earliest "number one sisters", are high and mighty and usually have little communication with others, either at work or in life.
These two people don't meet each other, they don't communicate and rarely appear in the same frame.
Among the new generation of female stars, Meng Ziyi and Zhou Ye became friends because of the recording of "Taohuawu" and often have dinner and go shopping together.
Because of the filming of "Who is the Hero", Yang Chaoyue and Meng Ziyi also had a good relationship.
She has filmed "Joy of Life" with Tian Xiwei and they are good friends, but she is not familiar with Zhou Ye.
After all, no matter how good the relationship between the four is, there is inevitably competition.
It's just that because the company has sufficient resources, this kind of competition is not highlighted.
"When will our movie be released?" Yang Chaoyue raised his head slightly and looked at Gu Wei.
“The post-production of [Extreme Rescue] was not difficult, and the finished film was almost ready in two or three months.
However, the specific release time will not be too early.
We need to discuss with Lionsgate to choose a better release date and reserve enough box office space both domestically and internationally.
I have high expectations for this film.”
Yang Chaoyue pressed his face against Gu Wei's chest. "With your box office appeal and the quality of 'Extreme Rescue', it will definitely be a global hit!"
"Haha, I hope so!"
In November, the domestic film market cooled down.
The highest-grossing movies of the month were "Detective Conan: The Bride of Halloween" and "Sweeping Black Market," with a total box office of barely over 100 million yuan.
But this is normal. The Lunar New Year holiday season begins in December, and any movie that has some box office expectations will try to be released during this period.
Without good movies, the film market will naturally not be popular.
In comparison, there are quite a few TV series being broadcast in the TV drama market that have very good reputation and popularity.
Tian Xiwei and Xiao Zhan's "Daily Life of a Lady" has topped the popularity charts of Maoyan, Yunhe and other platforms for many consecutive days since its premiere, becoming a phenomenal "electronic pickled mustard greens" with a Douban score of 7.5.
Mango TV's historical river management drama "The Long River of the World" has a viewership rating of over 1 and a Douban score of 8.3, with both high reputation and popularity.
There is also the business drama "Wind Blows Half Summer" starring Zhao Liying, which is broadcast on both Blueberry Channel and Litchi Channel. It not only has good ratings, but also has surprisingly good reputation, with a Douban score of 8.5 and has received rave reviews.
Yang Mi has two TV series airing this month, namely the urban emotional drama "The 80/20 Law of Love" and the medical emotional drama "Thank You Doctor".
The broadcast performance of the two dramas is not bad, but the reputation is very average, especially "The 80/20 Rule of Love", which has a controversial plot and only scored 5.8 points on Douban.
".The company has already started promoting [Manslaughter 2] and has made preparations both online and offline."
In the president's office of [Wei Ming Tian Xia], Yang Liwen is reporting to Gu Wei on the promotion and marketing of [The Accidental Murder 2].
"..At the moment, only Avatar: The Way of Water has some competitiveness in the same time slot, so other movies don't need to be too concerned."
Gu Wei nodded. "Although Cui Rui has been appointed director of Manslaughter 2, Wen Mu is still the producer. Xiao Yang, the protagonist, remains the same. The addition of Zhang Tianai and Tony Leung Ka Fai will also attract a lot of audiences.
With the quality of this movie, it won’t be difficult to compete with Avatar: The Way of Water.”
Yang Liwen didn't know where her boss's confidence came from. She had seen the finished film of "The Accidental Murderer 2" and knew that the film was very well made.
However, in her opinion, "Avatar" is one of the top blockbusters in the world. Judging from the popularity of the first part, the second part, "The Way of Water", will definitely get billions of box office in China.
Although she didn't understand, she didn't say much.
She trusts her boss's judgment.
She has been working for Gu Wei for more than ten years and has never seen her boss make a mistake.
"If [The Accidental Murder 2] can continue to sell well and maintain its reputation, then this IP can be considered established," Yang Liwen said after thinking for a while.
[Wei Ming Tian Xia] has many popular IPs that are like gold mines, such as the [Detective Chinatown] series, the [Love Saint] series, and the animation company's [Fengshen] series consisting of [Nezha] and [Yang Jian].
These are all movies that are sure to make money as long as they are filmed and released, and now it seems that another "Manslaughter" series will be added.
After talking about the movie, Yang Liwen reported on other things.
"CCTV has sent an invitation, hoping that you can participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala performance."
Gu Wei waved his hand without hesitation: "Refuse it, I will join the crew to shoot "The Vanishing Girl" after New Year's Day.
Besides, there is no point in me performing on the Spring Festival Gala.
Artists under the company can try to promote it. For them, the Spring Festival Gala stage is also a good opportunity to show their face!"
Yang Liwen nodded: "I understand.
In addition to the Spring Festival Gala, many satellite TV stations have also invited you to the New Year's Eve Gala."
Gu Wei thought for a moment and said, "Just reject them all!"
