The filming of "She Vanished" proceeded in an orderly manner. Soon a week passed and Liu Shishi joined the crew.
That’s right, Liu Shishi also has a role in this movie.
She was specially invited to play the role of "real Li Muzi" in the movie.
The "real Li Muzi" never appeared in the main timeline of "Her Disappearance", but only appeared in the memories of "He Fei" and "Chen Mai".
In the story, "Li Muzi" comes from a wealthy family, has a gentle, kind and somewhat introverted personality, and has only one good friend "Chen Man", who later becomes "Chen Mai" who designed this drama to find out the truth and help her get revenge.
This character is the third female lead, and her role in the movie is second only to the female lead "Chen Mai" and "fake Li Muzi", but she does not actually appear in many scenes.
The original version of "Her" found an unknown 18th-tier actress to play the role, and it was pretty average.
Originally, Gu Wei didn't care about this role, and he had no intention of looking for the original actor. He just thought it was not an important role, so he would just find a second- or third-tier actress with a suitable image and decent acting skills.
There are no suitable female stars in his company. Zhou Ye and Xiao Tian look much younger than Nini, and they cannot play the role of her best friend who grew up with her. It is impossible for Zhang Tianai and Nazha to come and play supporting roles for Nini and Meng Ziyi.
Later, when chatting with Nini, she suggested that Liu Shishi could play this role.
Her looks and temperament are perfect for playing this kind of artistic and good girl.
As for whether Liu Shishi feels that the role is too small, that is not the problem.
Although she is listed among the top 85 flowers along with Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Zhao Liying and others, Liu Shishi has actually fallen far behind after getting married.
Most of the fans have left, and there have been no good works for many years.
What's more, this is Gu Wei's movie, and the opportunity is rare. There are many well-known actors willing to play even a supporting role.
Sure enough, when Nini told Liu Shishi about this, she agreed without hesitation and thanked Nini for thinking of her when she had the chance.
After thinking about it, Gu Wei also felt that it was a good idea for Liu Shishi to play "Li Muzi".
This role doesn't have many scenes, she's only the third female lead, so there's no need to worry that Liu Shishi's acting skills can't hold up to it.
Her image and temperament fit the role and she is more famous, which is far superior to the original actress.
The most important thing is that her previous collaboration with Ni Ni in "The Best of Times" was very brilliant. That drama was about girls helping girls. Now the two of them have replicated this friendship in the movie, which is also a major highlight of the movie.
"Are you okay?"
On the shore of the swimming pool, "Li Muzi" had just been in danger during diving training, fortunately "He Fei" rescued her in time.
Both of them had taken off their diving suits at this time. Liu Shishi was wearing a light yellow long skirt, and her temperament was gentle and quiet. Gu Wei was wearing simple short-sleeved shorts and walked over to hand her a bottle of water.
“Sorry, today it’s our problem.
But never go into the water alone in the future, you must have a diving buddy.
Because when you are in danger, only your buddy can save you."
Gu Wei looked at Liu Shishi with gentle eyes, apologized, and reminded her what to do if she encountered danger while diving.
“Do you remember what you did underwater?
[The oxygen cylinder is leaking], [Help me up], [I can't breathe anymore].
OK?
He gestured as he spoke these words.
Liu Shishi looked at his face and nodded slightly.
Gentle sunlight shines into the diving hall from the window, shining on the two people. The man has a slender and handsome figure, while the woman has a gentle, quiet, dignified and graceful temperament.
"Okay then, I'll be leaving first. Byebye~"
After Gu Wei finished speaking, he took a few steps forward. Liu Shishi stood up and called him.
"Do you like the starry sky too?"
Gu Wei stopped and saw a painting printed on the back of his short-sleeved shirt: Van Gogh's Starry Sky.
"Van Gogh, a successful loser.
Me too~"
He subconsciously tugged at his clothes and smiled shyly.
“The starry sky is also my favorite painting~”
The common topic seemed to bring the two people closer together.
"Yeah?
Did you know that you can actually see a very beautiful starry sky from the bottom of the sea?"
"The seabed? The starry sky?" Liu Shishi was a little confused.
Gu Wei quickly said, "Yes, I'll take you to see it if I have the chance."
The two stood face to face, looking at each other, with gentle smiles on their faces.
The side shot captures a panoramic view of the two people, slowly moving from near to far.
"Crack! Excellent, this one passed!
Thank you for your hard work, teachers.”
After the scene was finished, the actors went to the rest area nearby to rest.
“What a great performance!”
Ni Ni, who was sitting on the side watching the show, smiled and praised.
Liu Shishi smiled a little embarrassedly and sat beside her.
Gu Wei sat opposite the two of them, picked up the water cup beside him and took a sip.
"Boss, it's Mr. Yang calling~" the assistant came over and said in a low voice.
Gu Wei put down his water cup, stood up and went to the side to answer the phone.
After sitting down, Liu Shishi also took her own cup and drank water in small sips, her eyes involuntarily following the handsome figure.
"How about it, isn't it handsome?"
Ni Ni's voice came faintly to my ears.
Liu Shishi nodded involuntarily, then reacted, put down the water cup and looked at her best friend with some coquettishness.
"What? No way? It's okay~" Three denials in a row.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about in recognizing Gu Weishuai. His face is popular all over the world and he's recognized as a world-class handsome guy.
Besides, when I saw the scene between you two just now, when you looked at each other, your eyes were a little straight when you looked at Gu Wei.
This is consistent with the plot, where Li Muzi falls in love with He Fei at first sight."
In the original version, the two did not fall in love at first sight, but Gu Wei played He Fei. With his good looks and charm, and his deliberate setting up of a hero to save the beauty in order to pursue the rich girl, it is unreasonable for Li Muzi not to fall in love at first sight.
"Who's staring? That's my acting!" Liu Shishi was a little panicked and hurried to explain.
Nini looked at Liu Shishi with a half-smile.
She had filmed a movie with Liu Shishi before, and she knew her acting skills very well. Apart from anything else, at least her eye acting was below standard.
The performance just now was so good, it was probably a true expression of his feelings.
Of course, it can also be said that I was immersed in the role.
"Okay, okay, it's your acting skills that are great. You got into the role of Li Muzi. My Shishi is amazing. She got into the role so quickly."
Nini said in a coaxing tone.
In fact, Nini was not surprised at all about Liu Shishi's condition.
Having known Gu Wei for such a long time and having filmed two movies together, she knew too well how charming Gu Wei was.
Her appearance, figure and temperament are unmatched, and she exudes a charming charm from the inside out.
The closer you get to him, the more you will be attracted by his charm.
Back then, the two of them just met at Huang Xiaoming's wedding, and ended up getting together that night.
Ni Ni doesn't think she is a casual girl, but after meeting Gu Wei, she couldn't feel any resistance at all, both physically and mentally, and was filled with excitement and joy.
Therefore, she didn't think that other girls would be any different, even Liu Shishi who was already married.
"How does it feel to film with Gu Wei for the first time?"
"Very good, Gu Wei's acting is really good, he deserves to be the best actor.
It was very comfortable to act opposite him. I didn't feel overwhelmed by the role. Instead, I was able to be moved by his emotions and perform better."
This was not the first time Liu Shishi met Gu Wei.
She knew Gu Wei earlier than Nini, and knew about this person when he was dating Nazha at school.
It’s just that there was no career intersection between him and Gu Wei before, and they were not in the same circle.
The last time they met was when he came to visit the set of "The Best of Times" and chatted with her for a few minutes.
This filming together was the first time she and Gu Wei had close contact and got to know each other in depth.
"Shishi, you have also worked with many handsome men, such as Brother Hu, Eddie Peng and so on. What do you think is the difference between Gu Wei and them?" Ni Ni asked curiously, thinking of something.
Liu Shishi thought for a moment and said, "Brother Hu has a cheerful and outgoing personality, while Peng Yuyan is a bit reserved.
As for Gu Wei, it’s hard to say whether he is extrovert or introvert, but he gives people a warm feeling.
Just like the sun, it emits warm and comfortable light all the time.
Well, although I have a good relationship with Lao Hu and Peng Yuyan, I have to admit that they are still far inferior to Gu Wei in terms of appearance.
"The sun, it really does look like the sun, except that it's shining on too many people."
Liu Shishi's metaphor touched Nini, and she murmured as she looked at the figure making a phone call in the distance.
She is not blind or deaf, and she probably knows how unfaithful Gu Wei is.
There are all kinds of female celebrities in the distant circle who have scandals with Gu Wei, and even right in front of him, the relationship between the little girl named Meng Ziyi in the group and Gu Wei may not be innocent.
However, the relationship between her and Gu Wei was unclear. She was not Gu Wei's official girlfriend and had no right to interfere.
She coveted Gu Wei's looks, figure, the ultimate wonderful experience he brought her, and all kinds of help in her career.
In this way, it is impossible to impose any restrictions on him.
While Ni Ni and Liu Shishi were chatting here, Gu Wei received a call and received good news.
"After this period of negotiation and discussion, the acquisition team and Wanda have reached a preliminary agreement.
[Wanda Group] will transfer its 20% stake in [Wanda Film] to us at a price of RMB 4.5 billion.
Once we acquire these shares, we will become the largest shareholder of Wanda Films.
Given our company and your reputation in the film and television industry, it won't be difficult for us to become the largest shareholder and acquire the controlling stake in Wanda Films."
As a listed company, Wanda Film's shares are very dispersed.
The 20% traded by Wanda Group represents all the shares they hold.
In addition, Mr. Wang’s wife personally holds 5% of the shares.
Alibaba Group holds 6.3%, Eastmoney Fund 8.1%, China Life Insurance 2.4%, and GF Securities 1.9%.
Next are small shareholders with shares below 1%, and the majority of shareholders who hold Wanda Film shares.
Therefore, as long as this transaction is successful, Gu Wei will be the largest shareholder of Wanda Films, and will then control Wanda Films, the leading cinema chain in China with a 15% market share.
His media group will also form a complete closed loop.
“Very good~”
Gu Wei was very satisfied with the price of 4.5 billion, which was lower than he expected.
It seems that Wanda Group is really short of money now and is anxious to get this money.
Otherwise, it is normal for such a transaction involving billions of dollars to take several months to negotiate.
After all, even a difference of tens of millions is actually a huge number.
"Hurry up and make an appointment with Wanda to sign a transaction memorandum.
Then draft a contract as quickly as possible.”
After chatting with Yang Liwen for a while, Gu Wei hung up the phone with a bit of emotion.
It seems that I will have to take leave soon.
As the boss, he had to personally handle the 4.5 billion worth of stock transaction. (End of this chapter)
