Huayu Entertainment: The Birth of a Succubus Top Star

Chapter 139 Flowers may bloom again, but youth never returns.

Two days ago, when Gu Zhiyan called to invite Wu Jing to make a cameo appearance in "The Wandering Earth," this guy was complaining about it to him.

"Why is everyone criticizing me? Why are there so few people criticizing you?"

"Maybe it's because I'm handsome that people like me."

Wu Jing: ...

Blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing their parents; even if you're the King of Heaven, it's unacceptable.

A few days after Nazha left, Wu Jing came to the film crew.

As soon as he arrived at the film set, Guo Fan "tricked" him into spending his own money to treat the crew to better meals.

Guo Fan's title of "Master of Begging for Alms" is well-deserved.

A while ago, Liu Cixin came over and was "begged" 200,000 yuan by him. You should know that he only received 100,000 yuan for the movie copyright fee of "The Wandering Earth".

"You have to pay 200 yuan for every dog ​​that passes by" is not an exaggeration at all.

Uncle Da was "tricked" into coming by Guo Fan's luxurious cast.

But even after discovering he had been "tricked," Uncle Da was still very happy, feeling that it was very worthwhile to have participated in such a meaningful film in his lifetime.

Guo Fan also "tricked" XCMG out of a product line and several hundred employees.

These employees not only provided technical support throughout the entire process, but sometimes even worked as extras. By the time filming was finished, these tech geeks were skilled enough to easily find themselves in front of the camera…

Various foreign friends made cameo appearances as extras, a post-production girl switched careers on set, and a college student programmer did special effects for free...

Guo Fan's "evil deeds" are simply "too numerous to list".

Na Zha was "fooled" before she left. Even though Gu Zhiyan had warned her before she joined the crew that she shouldn't take anything Guo Fan said seriously.

This "spendthrift woman" seemed quite happy as she spent her money.

Naza: They treat me like a "boss lady".

This movie has an investment from Xiao Yan Ge, so it's reasonable for the "boss lady" to give the employees some benefits.

Gu Zhiyan had nothing to say about this; that "silly beauty" was very easy to fool.

As long as you compliment her on her beauty or treat her as Gu Zhiyan's woman, she will be overjoyed.

Naza, Sister Meng, and Da Tiantian, the three of them can sit at one table.

When Wu Jing first joined the film crew, she was like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden, completely unseen and amazed by everything she saw, her mouth never closing.

"You guys are really going all out," Wu Jing exclaimed after the tour.

"Let me tell you, this movie is sure to be a success. You'll be making your first appearance in a sci-fi blockbuster in China. Pretty good, bro? I always think of you when something good happens." Gu Zhiyan was just as good at bluffing as Guo Fan.

"That's great, I'll have a few more drinks with you tonight."

Gu Zhiyan was secretly laughing to herself, feeling like she was being really wicked.

They sold Wu Jing and then made him help count the money.

"Director Guo, are we short of funds for this movie?"

Gu Zhiyan is essentially a good person. He felt a little embarrassed for taking so much from Wu Jing, so he decided to "make amends" to him.

"It's enough, it's enough," Guo Fan quickly replied.

For science fiction movies, if you want to achieve the highest quality, you could easily spend another two hundred million.

However, Guo Fan felt embarrassed to ask Gu Zhiyan to pay any more money, as the help she had already given him was more than enough.

Nothing in this world is ever completely certain. Although he was confident in the film, what if…

Gu Zhiyan could tell from Guo Fan's expression that he wasn't telling the truth, and she also understood his concerns.

Guo Fan is a very loyal person. If it were someone else, they wouldn't care if you lost everything as long as they got the money.

"Don't worry, I'm not paying this time. Just ask if you need anything, and I'll find you a rich person."

"I see. How about another twenty million?"

Guo Fan thought to himself: With another 20 million, the special effects for some scenes could be made even better.

"Brother Jing, give me some money."

"I?"

Wu Jing, who had just been watching the commotion, immediately widened his eyes and pointed his finger at his nose.

"That's right, you're a big shot now, this amount of money is nothing to you, just consider it support for domestic science fiction films."

Gu Zhiyan wasn't worried at all that Wu Jing wouldn't pay, after all, he had paid 60 million in his previous life.

"Alright, I'll pay for it." Wu Jing nodded decisively.

To be honest, after listening to Guo Fan's explanation and visiting the site, Wu Jing was amazed by everything about the "Wandering Earth" crew, and he was very optimistic about the movie.

He paid the money willingly.

Guo Fan was already shocked when he asked Wu Jing to pay, and now seeing Wu Jing agree so readily, he was even more shocked and began to question his life.

Is making money really that easy?

He went to great lengths to beg for money to make "The Wandering Earth," knowing all too well how difficult it is to get people to take money out of their pockets.

Gu Zhiyan managed to get Wu Jing to hand over 20 million yuan in just a few words, which really put him on the defensive.

Who the hell is the "succubus" here?

Everyone calls him a "succubus," but in Guo Fan's eyes, Gu Zhiyan is the real "succubus."

"Director Guo, Director Guo!"

"Oh, what's wrong?"

Gu Zhiyan's shout brought Guo Fan back to his senses.

"Why don't you make some arrangements to properly entertain our 'God of Wealth' tonight?"

"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away, I guarantee it will be plentiful."

Yes, it was indeed a feast, and the money came from Wu Jingzan's food allowance.

Wu Jing's cameo this time is a genuine cameo. Although Guo Fan is addicted to "taking advantage" and really wants to give Wu Jing more screen time, he really can't add too much without disrupting the film's rhythm.

Shortly after Wu Jing, the guest actor, left, Uncle Da's scenes also wrapped up.

To thank this veteran actor for his contributions to the film, the production team held a special "wrap party" for him.

There was no big fuss; they simply prepared some food and drinks, and the main creators sat around a table, eating and chatting.

"I'm getting old. I'll be going back to the hospital soon. This might be the last movie I ever make. I just don't know if I'll ever see our movie released."

As soon as Uncle Da uttered these words of lament, everyone at the table fell silent, and the atmosphere became somber.

Zhao Jinmai, however, was a little confused as she drank her juice.

These adults are so strange. They were chatting and laughing just now, but suddenly they've all stopped talking.

In youth, one is unaware of the pain of parting; little did one know that from then on, people and the moon would never be reunited.

"Uncle Da, what are you saying? You'll definitely live to be a hundred and see our movie a great success," Guo Fan said, breaking the silence.

"Haha, this old man has long since come to terms with it. Don't try to comfort me. I know my own body best. Being able to participate in this movie is enough for me to die without regrets!"

Uncle Da smiled broadly, but tears were glistening in his eyes.

If I could be young again, I would give you an ounce of gold and an ounce of wind.

Unfortunately, flowers may bloom again, but youth never returns.
