Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 232 Kidnapping Jiang Wen into the Film Crew

"have to!"

Gu Bei said with a smile, "Our parents haven't even started pressuring us to get married yet, but you, Chairman Han, are the first to start."

If I don't ask you to be my witness at the wedding, I'm afraid I'll be letting you down!

"Haha, is Director Gu shy?"

Han Sanpin said with a smile, teasingly.

Gu Bei: “…”

I initially felt a little guilty for taking advantage of Han Sanpin.

And now... I have no conscience!
Han Sanpin smiled as he looked at Gu Bei.

Normally, Gu Bei always had a calm expression, no matter the situation.

Only when Liu Yifei is brought into the conversation can Gu Bei's expression be so vivid.

Young lovers, Gu Bei and Liu Yifei, one twenty-one years old and the other twenty years old, are truly in the best years of their lives!

Gu Bei chatted with Han Sanpin for a while longer.

Then he left China Film Group.

The date was April 29th.
The opening ceremony of Gu Bei Company is being held today.

The location is the banquet hall of a five-star hotel on Wangfujing Street.

"This press conference is finally here! I've been looking forward to it for a long time. I heard that there will be many big names in the entertainment industry at this press conference, and Gu Bei will announce a series of major projects!"

"It's definitely something to look forward to. Gu Bei's style is completely different from the current top directors in China. He hasn't even revealed the name of his company yet, let alone the name of the project!"

"All I can tell right now is that Gu Bei is very wealthy. This press conference must have cost at least several million. I don't know which company he invested in or if he made the money from Hollywood."

The reporters stood in the designated media area, engaged in a heated discussion.

Gu Bei just won four awards at the Oscars a few months ago, each of which was the first time a Chinese person had won an award, and he even tied Walt Disney's record.

Moreover, this month, Gu Bei's Twilight series has sparked a global Twilight effect.
At this time,
Gu Bei announced the establishment of a domestic company.
It immediately attracted the attention of various media outlets.
I'll promote Gu Bei's new company and projects for free.

"I'm coming!"

"The first big star is actually Huang Xiaoming. Don't Gu Bei and Huayi have a conflict?"

"Can't figure it out? Then stop thinking about it and hurry up and film! Gu Bei and Huang Xiaoming have already shaken hands!"

at this time,

Gu Bei happened to shake hands with Huang Xiaoming.

He said with a smile, "I didn't expect Teacher Huang Xiaoming to arrive so early."

Huang Xiaoming respectfully shook hands with Gu Bei: "I still want to thank Director Gu. You gave me the role of Takeda, which allowed me to create an image that is completely different from my past roles."

Gu Bei smiled upon hearing this.

He has a rather favorable impression of Huang Xiaoming.
In particular, he actually managed to have a second spring in his career after his divorce.

In addition, Huang Xiaoming would be leaving Huayi Brothers shortly after the release of The Message, so Gu Bei sent the roles in The Message to Huang Xiaoming and Alec Su.

However, only Huang Xiaoming accepted the role, while Alec Su rejected the role of Bai Xiaonian.

This can be seen from it.

Huang Xiaoming is very good at seizing opportunities.

Gu Bei said calmly, "I hope you won't disappoint me."

Huang Xiaoming smiled and assured him, "I have thoroughly understood the entire script and will definitely not disappoint Director Gu." Originally, when they received the script through word of mouth, Huang Xiaoming and his agent were unwilling to accept it because they saw that the role they were asked to play was a villainous supporting character like Takeda.

However, after seeing that the script came from Gu Bei,

Huang Xiaoming immediately changed his mind; he had to accept the challenge!
Instead, his agent started doing everything he could to prevent him from accepting the offer.

However, when Huang Xiaoming joined Huayi Brothers, he was already one of the top male stars.

His relationship with Huayi

No one holds an absolutely dominant position.
When he insisted on acting in The Message, even the two big shots of Huayi Brothers couldn't stop him, let alone the agent that Huayi gave him.

Even today, he made a point of being the first to arrive, hoping to have a chance to chat with Gu Bei a bit more.

Just as Huang Xiaoming was about to continue speaking,
A hearty laugh came from behind: "Damn, that's quite a show of force!"

Huang Xiaoming turned around with slight displeasure, only to see Jiang Wen and his wife Zhou Yun walking in arm in arm.
His dissatisfaction vanished instantly.
He immediately greeted him, "Director Jiang."

Jiang Wen nodded to him.

Then she looked at Gu Bei and said, "Director Gu, I'm going to see your movie as soon as it's released. It's fucking awesome!"

Zhou Yun chimed in, "I can vouch for that. He dragged me to see it, but I went home alone, and he watched it several more times at the cinema."

Gu Bei had already learned from Han Sanpin that Jiang Wen was coming.

He didn't show any surprise, but just smiled and replied, "Thank you for your kind words, Director Jiang. I wonder when I'll be able to see Director Jiang's new movie?"

"No rush, no rush!" Jiang Wen waved her hand. "I heard from Third Master that you even helped him look at the script?"

Could it be that the script for Let the Bullets Fly hasn't been finished yet?
Gu Bei thought about it carefully.
The movie was released in December 2010, which is still two and a half years away.
Given Coco Chiang's penchant for scriptwriting, the script for "Let the Bullets Fly" is probably not finalized yet.

He said with a smile, "I watched it once, and I couldn't touch the script of his movie."

Jiang Wen immediately said, "I have a story here, it's different from Third Master's movie, you can change it however you want, I guarantee you'll enjoy it!"

Is this an attempt to fool me?
Gu Bei had long heard that Jiang Wen had her own scriptwriting team.

However, unlike Hollywood screenwriting teams where each person is responsible for a specific part, the division of labor is different.
Jiang Wen's scriptwriting team is like oil painters; one person paints a layer, another paints a layer, and finally, layer upon layer, a complete script is formed.

This pattern is exactly the same as the pattern of Coco Kang wasting film rolls when making movies.

Gu Bei had an idea. You're trying to fool me, so I'll fool you too: "Writing scripts is easy. That's my favorite thing to do. But Director Jiang isn't making movies lately. Have you thought about acting?"

He's already written the script, so securing investment for "Let the Bullets Fly" is a given; he'll definitely get a share.

What's giving Gu Bei a headache right now is Wu Zhiguo, who's in the news.
This character needs to have a domineering appearance, a weathered look, and exude an aura of masculinity.

Finding a suitable male actor is really difficult, especially in mainland China where male actors generally don't have the same opportunities as female actors.

But after Gu Bei saw Jiang Wen,

I discovered that Jiang Wen is practically an upgraded version of Zhang Hanyu.

It's absolutely perfect!

After hearing Gu Bei briefly recount the story of "The Message," Jiang Wen...

He immediately agreed, "No problem!"

The two sides agreed to discuss the matter in detail in two days, and then Mr. and Mrs. Jiang entered the banquet hall.

Huang Xiaoming stayed for a while on purpose.

He subtly reminded Gu Bei: "Director Gu, Director Jiang is a very good actor and his image is very suitable for the role of Wu Zhiguo, but Director Jiang is a rather assertive person, so you may not be used to it."

Is this... to prevent me from repeating the mistakes of Rikutaro?
