"Mr. Gu, how are you preparing for [Tang Detective 3]? When do you plan to start filming?"

At the banquet, while the wine was flowing, Wang Changtian asked Gu Wei a question that he had always been concerned about.

Xu Zheng, whose face turned red when he heard him mention [Tang Detective 3], also pricked up his ears.

[Detective Chinatown] This series is currently recognized as one of the most profitable IPs in China. The box office of the first part exceeded 1 billion, and the second part reached 3.9 billion. After [Wolf Warrior 2] and [Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World] ] Before its release, it firmly occupied the top spot at the domestic box office.

And unlike the "Monster Hunt" series that ruined its reputation, the second part of the "Detective Chinatown" series is still very good. The audience has been looking forward to the third part of this IP. According to the current scale of the film market, the second part of the "Detective Chinatown" series is still very good. As long as the three movies are not particularly bad, there will definitely be no problem if the box office exceeds the previous one.

"This is it"

Gu Wei pondered for a moment.

"Mr. Gu, [Tang Detective 1] was released at the end of 2013, and [Tang Detective 2] was released in the summer of 2016. According to the time, preparations for the third part should also start.

The majority of movie fans and loyal fans of the "Detective Chinatown" series are already eager to see the third part."

After Wang Changtian finished speaking, Xu Zheng next to him curled his lips in disdain.

'I don't know if movie fans are in a hurry or not, but you must be anxious to make money.'

Because the movie series "Detective Chinatown" was first produced in cooperation with "Wei Tomorrow" and "China Film" and "Enlight". Later, when the second film was released, other companies in the industry were introduced, but except for "Wei Tomorrow" Except for [Bottom], [Medium Shadow] and [Light] account for the most part.

Wang Changtian is always thinking about [Tang Detective 3], making money is one aspect.

[Enray] is a listed company. It is the main investor in a movie that sells 4 billion or even 5 billion at the box office. It will greatly boost the confidence of investors in the stock market. When the share price of Enray rises, Wang Changtian will earn more than just This amount of money is divided into the box office.

Judging from the current potential value of the IP "Detective Chinatown", Wang Changtian believes that it is possible for the third film to break 4 billion or even 5 billion.

It can even hit the 6 billion domestic movie box office record of [Wolf Warrior 2].

"Mr. Wang, to tell you the truth, I have actually started preparing for [Tang Detective 3] a long time ago. The most important thing is that I have never been very satisfied with the script."

Gu Wei glanced at Wang Changtian and Xu Zheng who looked curious next to him.

"Everyone knows that the [Detective Chinatown] series is a detective comedy movie. The first one became popular because of its attractive detective plot and mixed comedy elements.

The second part was relatively good in terms of story, and was not overly flattering, so it was able to maintain its box office reputation.

I attach great importance to this IP. After all, I am also the director of the "Tang Detective" movie. This series of movies is like my own children. If it is not polished to perfection, I will not let it be released to the public."

[Tang Detective 3] It is definitely not possible to film according to the original version, as that would only ruin the brand of this IP.

The original story was like a hodgepodge. Everyone made a fuss and turned the original detective comedy into a pure nonsensical comedy. Many plots had no logic and were just for the sake of being funny. Some of the original essence of this IP was lost - solving crimes.

So Gu Wei has been asking the company's screenwriting department to come up with new scripts, but there's nothing suitable yet.

"I understand this. Only good films can achieve good results. Mr. Gu's approach is understandable."

Gu Wei said that Wang Changtian couldn't ask further questions, so he smiled and complimented him.

"There is no need to worry, Mr. Wang. I estimate that in more than half a year, the script will be almost polished, and filming of [Tang Detective 3] will start next year at the latest."

Gu Wei finally gave Wang Changtian some hope and promised a rough time.

Palm Springs International Apartments.

After washing in the living room, Naza sat on the sofa and watched TV.

She was wearing a light yellow housecoat with half-sleeves with cartoon patterns on it. It was loose and comfortable, covering her beautiful figure. A pair of short shorts on her lower body revealed two long, white and straight legs.

One leg is crossed, and the other is hanging out and swinging up and down. The white and tender feet are painted with red nail polish and look very cute.

"ah"

It was a bit late, Nazha yawned and turned to look at the clock hanging on the wall.

"Why haven't you come back yet?" He muttered.

There is something on my mind, and the TV series I used to watch every day are no longer interesting.

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard the sound of the door opening outside.

Nazha's face changed and she showed a surprised smile. She jumped off the sofa, put on her pink bear slippers and ran towards the door.

"you are back!"

At the entrance, Gu Wei came in and was changing his shoes.

After Nazha shouted, she happily threw herself on him.

"Didn't I tell you not to wait for me? I have entertainment."

Before Gu Wei returned to the capital, he chatted with Nazha. Knowing that she was in the capital during this period, he made an appointment with her to come to her place after work.

"I'm not waiting for you specially. I'm watching a TV series, so I'm a little late."

Naza said a little coquettishly.

Although meeting Gu Wei was a top priority in her heart, she also wanted to save face.

After saying that, she smelled something and put her head slightly on Gu Wei's body to sniff.

"Smells so strong, I drank so much today!"

He frowned slightly and said worriedly:

"Even if you work, you have to do it in moderation. Your health is the most important thing."

"Know~

Everyone was very happy at the celebration banquet of [Super Dimensional Cohabitation] today, so they drank a few more drinks.

Moreover, Director Su Lun is a better drinker, so if she drinks with me as a woman, I can’t help but accompany her.”

"It's a movie celebration party, no wonder."

Naza nodded, then rolled her eyes.

"Sister Yifei didn't drink too much, right?"

"She was filming in the United States and didn't have enough time, so she couldn't come back to participate." Gu Wei walked into the living room and replied casually.

"That's such a pity!" Nazha said so, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Don't sit down yet. I've put hot water in the bathroom. You go take a bath first to get rid of the smell of alcohol and relieve your fatigue." As soon as Gu Wei sat down, Nazha pulled him up.

"Then you come with me, it's not a good idea to have a mandarin duck bath." Gu Wei stood up and put her in his arms.

"Ah, don't make trouble. I'll get you pajamas, and then make some honey water for you to drink when you come out after washing. It's good for your health."

With that said, Nazha came out of Gu Wei's arms and went to the bedroom to get clothes.

Gu Wei shrugged and walked to the bathroom.

As the two of them spent more and more time together, even Nazha started to feel like a good wife and mother, and knew how to care about and take care of others.

After a while, Gu Wei finished taking a shower and sat on the sofa wearing a couple's pajamas of the same style as Naza's, holding each other in his arms.

One hand hugged Nazha's slender waist and reached under the hem of her loose clothes. The other hand was placed on her white and smooth thigh.

Naza was holding a small plate of grapes, eating one for herself and feeding another to Gu Wei.

"You are watching [Story of Yanxi Palace]"

Gu Wei ate grapes and watched the drama on the TV opposite.

"Yes, this drama is very popular recently, I have been following it."

"Although Dead Girl is used to plagiarism, I have to say that his plays always have some very attractive points."

“I think [Story of Yanxi Palace] was well filmed. None of the leading actors are big stars, but the plot is very attractive.

Qin Lan, who plays the queen, is really beautiful, and She Shiman also plays the villain very well, and her acting skills are absolutely top-notch."

Nazha said it categorically, she seems to be a fan of "Story of Yanxi Palace".

"Hey, we Naza can all comment on She Shiman's acting skills." Gu Wei teased.

"Although my acting skills are average, Haolai also graduated from Beijing Film Academy, so I still have a good level of appreciation. Don't forget that we are classmates."

Gu Wei smiled and nodded.

"Why do you praise the second female lead and the supporting actress, but don't see you commenting on the female lead?"

"This." Naza thought for a moment.

"Actually, I think the female lead is pretty good, but I feel like she has no expression all the time and her face is rather stiff, but it doesn't go against the grain in the plot and she looks pretty good.

Speaking of which, Wu Jinyan is our senior, two years older than us. He was unknown before, so he became famous instantly."

Naza sighed with emotion.

This is the case in the entertainment industry. Many stars become famous because of a certain drama or a certain role, but most people never come across an opportunity to become popular even after a lifetime of acting.

The heroine of "Story of Yanxi Palace" Wu Jinyan also graduated from Beijing Film Academy and was the senior student of Gu Wei and Nazha in the previous two years.

It’s been 5 or 6 years since I graduated before I encountered this opportunity to become popular.

"She is already very lucky. There are two classes in our school's acting department, with dozens of graduates every year. Including those from Chinese drama and theater, the three major universities in China send nearly 200 newcomers to the film and television industry every year. actor.

If you include art schools such as Military Arts, Zhongchuan, Zhejiang, Nanjing, etc., there will be even more people.

There are only a handful of people here who can really become popular, and most of them are struggling at the bottom.”

After hearing Gu Wei's words, Nazha raised her head slightly and looked at his face.

"Yes, I'm lucky to have you."

"Haha~ Naza, don't worry, you are so beautiful, you are unique among these people, you will become famous sooner or later."

"Humph. That's not true.

It's not as exaggerated as you said.

Even if I am the school beauty of our class, there are only one school beauty of Beijing Film Academy every year, so that’s a lot.

Not to mention, Meng Ziyi and Zhou Ming in the company were both school beauties of their generation.

And like you said, there are also other schools.”

As she spoke, Nazha seemed to recall something.

"Actually, I'm very grateful to Mr. Cai. She took a liking to me at first glance and signed me as a newcomer to [Sugar Man] who didn't know anything. Later, she also gave me a lot of resources and wanted to make me famous."

"Lao Cai's vision is truly outstanding. It can be seen from the starring roles in Fairy Sword that both men and women eventually became first-line stars in the entertainment industry.

She originally wanted to sign Liu Yifei and Yang Mi, but it was a pity that they looked down on her little temple."

Naza raised her head slightly and looked at Gu Wei's face.

"After I left [Sugar Man], I have always been in contact with my senior sister. She said [Sugar Man] is getting worse and worse now, and Mr. Cai seems to be a bit broken, and he is not as concerned about the company as before. "

Gu Wei shrugged.

“Her model is doomed to fail in becoming bigger and stronger.

The artists he trained left one after another, leaving only Brother Hu who stayed because of love.

[Sugarman]’s decline will come sooner or later.”

Nazha turned sideways and hugged Gu Wei's waist.

"Fortunate to meet you"

Gu Wei raised his hand that was on Nazha's big white leg, lifted her chin, lowered his head and kissed her pink and attractive lips.

After kissing twice, they separated and said softly:

"I am also lucky to meet you"

Listening to Gu Wei's love words, Nazha's eyes were blurred and her heart almost melted.

She put her arms around his neck and asked for a kiss.

Gu Wei was not polite. He held Naza's back with one hand and reached into his clothes with the other hand, focusing on entangled with her.

After a while, the two slowly separated, their foreheads touched, and their mouths breathed rapidly, as if the oxygen was taken away by the other party.

"Go back to the bedroom." Gu Wei said softly.

"Yeah" Nazha's response was as thin as a mosquito.

After saying that, Gu Wei stood up, supported the other person's buttocks, and walked towards the bedroom with Naza in his arms.

The next morning, soft sunlight shines through the window on the big bed in the bedroom.

Naza's eyelashes trembled slightly like a sleeping beauty, and she opened her eyes.

The exercise last night was very intense, and she, who was not good at fighting for a long time, finally lost her strength and fainted.

After a night of deep sleep, she also regained her strength. Now that she woke up, her whole body felt in just one word - transparent!

Nazha sat up from the bed, raised her arms and stretched.

The fair and smooth body is beautiful under the sun.

"Wake up, morning~"

Gu Wei's figure appeared at the bedroom door. He was wearing a kitchen apron and holding a small shovel in his hand.

Naza saw that Gu Wei was a little embarrassed and blocked the plumpness of his chest.

"Morning~

I thought you got up and left in the morning."

“I have work today, but there’s no need to rush.

I warmed up some slices of bread and was making an omelette.

You can have breakfast right away when you get up now."

He smiled as he spoke.

"No need to block it, it's not like I haven't seen it before, not to mention you last night"

"I'll get up and get ready to eat right away!" Nazha interrupted Gu Wei shyly. There were some things she could do but couldn't say. She was already involved in it at that time. Of course, she was extremely proactive and willing to do anything. But the next day It’s always embarrassing to wake up.

"Okay, breakfast will be ready soon"

Gu Wei pursed his lips and smiled, turned around and left the bedroom.

After he left, Naza held her little face, still blushing a little when she thought of her state last night.

The two have been together for such a long time, and she has always been more passive.

Maybe it's because I haven't seen her for a long time. After entering the state last night, Naza was unusually proactive and tried a lot of new things.

Now that I think about it, I feel a little embarrassed.

“But it’s really comfortable. I can try it next time.”

Naza thought to herself.

Not long after, Nazha put on her clothes and got up. After washing briefly, Nazha came to the restaurant.

Breakfast was ready and the two of them sat down to eat.

"How long can you stay in Beijing this time?" Nazha asked, taking a bite of bread.

"Flight tomorrow night"

"So anxious?"

"The crew is waiting for me to go back to filming and do errands. Of course I have to go back early after I'm done."

"Okay then" Nazha's expression was obviously disappointed.

"We have to work. If we don't cooperate in filming in this industry, it would be normal to spend less time together and more time apart."

"I know~

But still reluctant.

You promised me you would go on vacation this year."

Gu Wei smiled.

"Don't worry, I won't forget it.

After the next part of the drama is over, we will go out to play together for a few days and have a relaxing vacation."

"Is it the drama [East Palace] that I filmed with Ziyi?" The stars of the drama produced by "Wei Ming Xia" are quite familiar with it.

"Yes, I have signed Meng Ziyi for several years, and I always want to make a movie to praise her."

Nazha looked at Gu Wei and curled her lips.

"With you as the "dad in the entertainment industry" playing the leading role, it's hard for this drama not to be popular. Meng Ziyi will definitely be popular this time."

Gu Wei smiled maliciously after hearing her words, then put his head in and whispered something into Naza's ear.

"Ah, if you say that again, I will definitely not do it next time."

Naza said shyly and angrily.
