Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 296: He spoke his mind in a joking tone!

"Spring Festival Gala?"

Liu Yifei was just as puzzled as Gu Bei was at the time.

“One of the themes of this year’s Spring Festival Gala is aerospace. You were selected as the female lead in Gravity, so naturally you have to take on the task of promoting it on the Spring Festival Gala!” Gu Bei said with a smile.

"I was really selected?"

Liu Yifei immediately sat up straight with excitement.

It wasn't that she hadn't thought about succeeding, but the pressure from Gong Li was too great, so she always maintained a mindset of just participating.

Unexpectedly, I actually succeeded in the end!

"Yup!"

Gu Bei sat up straight. "You should be glad that Teacher Gong Li is a bit older."
If she were ten years younger, you might not even be in this situation.

The selection criteria for Chinese astronauts are that they are between 25 and 35 years old, which is the peak of their knowledge and physical strength.

Of course, according to the setting, the background of the Earth's gravity is around 2030, when commercial spaceflight will be fully opened up.

The female lead wasn't sent by the military either.

Instead, they were sent by commercial companies to conduct biological research.
Therefore, age doesn't need to be strictly limited.

However, in the beginning, the female and male protagonists are contrasted with each other, with the female protagonist being a rookie astronaut and the male protagonist being an astronaut on his last mission, so the age difference must be significant.

The female lead is basically between 33 and 36 years old.

In the original film, Sandra Bullock and George Clooney were only three years apart in age, which led many viewers to wonder why Sandra, the female lead, was so flustered.

But in fact,

Sandra's female lead is a rookie astronaut who has only been training for a few months.
George Clooney, on the other hand, is a veteran astronaut with twenty years of mission experience, and he even made a promise to complete his last mission.

Sending astronauts who have only undergone a few months of training into space,
It's impossible for this to happen in the country right now.

But in a place like the International Space Station where commercial spaceflight is well-established, this is nothing new.
Furthermore, because there is a specific role to play in space, even novice astronauts must perform spacewalks to assist with auxiliary tasks.

This led to the entire story of gravity.

In some ways, this story is similar to Saving Private Ryan, both involving sacrificing oneself to save others, which aligns well with Western humanistic values.

Alfonso chose Sandra because he sacrificed some of the plausibility of the first half of the film for the sake of her solo performance in the second half.

Gu Bei doesn't need to make such a sacrifice.
Playing a 30-year-old at 20
It's much simpler than playing a 30-year-old when you're 40.
Time is the cruelest thing for female celebrities.

"Hehe! I don't care, time can't be turned back!"

Liu Yifei didn't care at all, completely rejecting internal strife, "The results came out so quickly?"

“You’ve also attended casting meetings, but most of the time is wasted; the real decision about the actors is made in those few minutes,” Gu Bei reminded him.

"Too!"

Liu Yifei thought of the casting meeting for Twilight. Big names still need to consider their schedules, while powerful production teams decide on roles based on the opinion of the person in charge.

Of course, even if things are settled, the actors won't be notified immediately.

That's why she used to feel that it took so long to get a role when she was an actress.

"What kind of activities did you experience at the training base?" Gu Bei asked curiously, still unaware of how Liu Yifei had managed to turn the tables in the end.

"The main focus is on overweight endurance training, using breathing techniques to alleviate the overweight experience during ascent and descent."
There's also weightlessness adaptation training, which uses various methods to let you experience weightlessness and gradually adapt to activities under conditions of excess weight.

Liu Yifei said in a lighthearted tone, "There was also some physical training and endurance training. I even broke some training records at the base!"

"What record?"

"It's a confidentiality agreement, you can't tell!"

Liu Yifei winked mischievously, without revealing what record she had broken.

Gu Bei estimated it was probably an endurance record.
After all, there are only male astronauts at present, and the physical differences between men and women are too great.

However, women are naturally better than men in terms of endurance, especially mental endurance.

After a pause,

Liu Yifei wrapped her arms around Gu Bei's neck and said coquettishly, "You absolutely have to go to the Spring Festival Gala, but I don't even know what I'll be performing!"

“This is a mission!”

Gu Bei remained unmoved by Liu Yifei's coquettishness and said fairly, "It's probably a singing program or something. There's no time to prepare other programs now."

Then, Gu Bei smiled and looked at Liu Yifei: "Or perhaps... you still want to meet my parents more?"

Liu Yifei then suddenly remembered,

They had originally planned to meet their parents at the end of the year.
It seems that Gu Bei has to go to the awards season and she has to go to the Spring Festival Gala, so this meeting can be postponed again!
Compared to the horror of meeting Gu Bei's parents, Liu Yifei didn't find the Spring Festival Gala so scary anymore; she loved her job the most!
Liu Yifei immediately changed her tune: "The Spring Festival Gala is actually not bad, singing! I love singing the most!"

"hehe!"

Woman, your name is hypocrisy!
Gu Bei glanced at her, "A young wife eventually has to meet her in-laws!"

"Who said they wanted to marry you!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei immediately became displeased.
She patted Gu Bei and tried to pull herself away.

Gu Bei grabbed Liu Yifei's slender waist and pulled her back, raising an eyebrow slightly: "That's not up to you!"

finished,

Gu Bei's eyes followed Liu Yifei's stunning face downwards.

The pure white T-shirt subtly revealed her slender waist, while blue jeans accentuated her rounded figure as she sat sideways, along with her long, shapely legs.
Just by looking at her figure, you can see a strong sense of youth.

At last,
Gu Bei saw Liu Yifei's small hand gently gripping the sofa, nervously squeezing the corner of the sofa.

Gu Bei turned his gaze back to Liu Yifei's face.
Seeing her face flushed with shyness, and her soft, panting breath,

Until the last moment when the two looked at each other, a hint of spring fever was already shining in those beautiful phoenix eyes.

At this time,
Silence is more attractive than speech.
Simple language can't compare to the imagination that Liu Yifei's mind radiates.

at this time,

Gu Bei noticed that Liu Yifei had come to her senses.

A hint of embarrassment and annoyance flashed in her eyes.

Then, she moved closer to Gu Bei, sniffing her nose: "I think I can smell the scent of desire on you!"

You were really bold today!

Gu Bei was teased by Liu Yifei.
His expression remained unchanged, but he also leaned closer to smell the faint camellia scent emanating from Liu Yifei: "I think I smell the same scent on you too!"

"is it?"

Liu Yifei pushed Gu Bei away a little and met his eyes.

Just thinking about what she was going to say made her want to laugh out loud: "But... I'm on my period today!"

relative……

Gu Bei was slightly taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Liu Yifei noticed the fleeting moment of surprise on Gu Bei's face.
A smug smile of triumph spread across her face as she happily wiggled in Gu Bei's arms: "So you're saying I'm too dark, huh?"

No?

You've remembered something this small for so long!

Gu Bei revealed a wry smile.
I never expected that a single sentence I uttered this morning would backfire so badly.

No wonder!
Liu Yifei actually risked being photographed by paparazzi, instead of going home, she secretly came to my hotel room to wait for me, just for revenge, right? Fine, fine!
Is that how you play?
Gu Bei gave Liu Yifei a slight smile.

"What are you going to do?"

Liu Yifei suppressed her smug smile, crossed her arms, and took a slight step back.

She knew Gu Bei's personality; he wouldn't give up so easily.

However, with physiological protection, Gu Bei shouldn't succeed... right?

"there is nothing……"

Gu Bei's hand left Liu Yifei's waist.

I gently patted the chubby thigh.

Touching down the jeans, she lifted the cuffs to reveal her jade-white ankles, their tender whiteness resembling an ice cream cone—truly alluring.

Gu Bei, holding Liu Yifei's ankle, smiled and looked up at the panicked Liu Yifei: "...Actually, it's not impossible!"

"abnormal!"

Liu Yifei blushed slightly and spat.

She finally understood.

Gu Bei had long harbored ulterior motives.

Whether it was that time we watched a horror movie together at the ski resort,
We'll soak in the hot springs together at the California hot spring resort.

Gu Bei spoke his mind in a joking tone!

Their ambitions are truly far-reaching!

I thought I came here with protection, but now that protection has become a cage that binds me. I've only made my own grave!
Liu Yifei had already seen through Gu Bei's scheme, and she righteously refused:
"No, I absolutely will not let you succeed!"

"Hmph~ I don't believe your nonsense!"

"Is it really going to be like this?"

"Don't tell me what to do, do it yourself!"

Are you almost better?

"what about me!"

……

the next day.

Liu Yifei boarded a flight back to Jiangcheng.

It had been almost half a year since she last returned to Jiangcheng. Taking advantage of the free time, she had originally planned to go back to Jiangcheng to visit her grandmother.

Now that I know I'll be performing on the Spring Festival Gala this year, I'll once again be unable to go home for the New Year.
Liu Yifei naturally wanted to stay in Jiangcheng for a few more days.

Then, she and Liu Xiaoli will fly to North America to meet up with Gu Bei and film the movie "The Wrong Star".

Gu Bei, feeling refreshed, went to Linlang Entertainment, intending to quickly finish his work in China and bring forward the filming schedule of Xingyun so that Liu Yifei could return to China early to prepare for the Spring Festival Gala.

……

A question mark slowly appeared in the gentle breeze of Shuchang in western Hunan.
What happened to the promised set visit?

I moved from Hengdian to Fangyan.
They moved from Fangyan to Wuyi.
They've all moved from Zhejiang Province to Hunan Province, and we haven't seen a single person!
Speak up for me!

……

Linlang Entertainment.

"Director Lin!"

Gu Bei said to Lin Yubin across the conference table, "Since everyone has no objections, then the 'Scarlet Heart' project will be handed over to you to direct independently."
Regarding the script, you'll need to work closely with the screenwriter to try and start filming in the second half of next year. Shu Chang from Linlang Entertainment will be on standby!

Regarding the conflict between Palace Lock Heart Jade and Scarlet Heart,

Gu Bei had heard of it before.

However, the specific timeline is not very clear.

However, now that he has acquired the rights to Scarlet Heart, he should hurry up and start filming.
If you plan to do it at least a year in advance, you won't run into similar projects.

As for the female lead, Ruoxi, there were actually no other choices besides her own top sister, Shu Chang.

"Thank you, Director Gu."
I will definitely put this project on the agenda as soon as possible.

Lin Yubin said gratefully to Gu Bei.

She doesn't lack work.
But compared to the projects I've received,
Linlang Entertainment's productions of Chinese Paladin 3 and Scarlet Heart were both big-budget projects.

Moreover, before he had even finished working on the Legend of Sword and Fairy 3 project, the Scarlet Heart project fell into his lap.

Before Chinese Paladin 3, she thought that having mainland actors and a mainland cast would make her ostracized by people from Hong Kong, Taiwan, and mainland China. But now she just wants to say, let's have as many projects like this as possible!

"Happy cooperation!"

Gu Bei shook hands with Lin Yubin and then left the conference room, leaving it to Lin Yubin and the screenwriters.

Subsequently,

Gu Bei returned to his office.

He had a video call with Peng Shaobing, the head of Weibo: "Are you ready?"

Peng Shaobing nodded: "President Gu, the exclusive event topic has been prepared. We have already reached cooperation agreements with Zhejiang Daily Group and our readers. The winner of the event can be published in their publications."

"Very good, this is the last move I'll teach you!"

Gu Bei opened his Weibo account. "I'm flying to North America tomorrow, so I'll be handing Weibo over to you from now on. We'll launch Weibo Farm at the end of the month to increase user activity."

"Understood, Mr. Gu, I will definitely maintain Weibo's leading position!"

Peng Shaobing is ready to make his move.

Internet giants have already taken notice of the microblogging sector.
His former employer, Xinlang, was still trying to poach him back.

But Peng Shaobing, who followed Gu Bei all the way to build Weibo, knew that Gu Bei was the one who understood this field the most, and that he would have to rely on Gu Bei to achieve financial freedom!
The crab is peeling my shell, and the notebook is writing about me.

I fell from the sky onto maple leaves and snowflakes.

And you are thinking of me.

@LiuYifei #WeiboThreeLinePoemsMillionYuanContest】

Gu Bei isn't very active on Weibo, but as one of the earliest celebrities to join the platform, coupled with his status as the director of "Gravity" and a Hollywood director, he has amassed over 100,000 followers.

quickly,

Comments then appeared below.

"Blessings, blessings!"

"What does this mean? Is Director Gu confessing his feelings to Qianqian?"

"Director Gu and Qianqian are always together and have collaborated on so many projects. Could they really be dating?"

"Still calling him Director Gu? He's more like Dog Gu!"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! I don't believe this is an official announcement! Gu Gou, give Qianqian back to us!!!"

"Everyone, don't rush. Let me analyze the meaning of Director Gu's Weibo post. It should be accompanied by a bunch of impossible statements."

Crabs can't peel my shell anymore, notebooks can't write about me, and I, scattered across the sky, can't fall on maple leaves or snowflakes, and you can't possibly think of me.

Therefore, there's only one truth: Director Gu confessed his feelings to Qianqian, but she rejected him!
