Chapter 402 402. Unfamiliar
Nie Wei's film preparations went smoothly, and soon the actress who played the old-age role of the heroine was found. Nie Wei still chose Gui Yalei. This old actor is 62 years old this year. Although she is a little younger, it is not a big deal. Nie Wei thinks that Gui Yalei's state is just right for her to play at this time, and there is no problem at all.
The reason is very simple. After all, when the heroine rejuvenates, Lin Yifei will play it. For such a beautiful woman, the role of the old age must also be played by an actress with excellent appearance and temperament, and Gui Yalei is an actress who fully meets this requirement.
Apart from other things, you should know that she was the heroine of Qiong Yao's drama when she was young. Qiong Yao's vision in choosing heroines is well known. How can Gui Yalei's appearance be bad?
And in terms of acting skills, she has also won the Golden Horse Award and starred in countless movies. There is no problem at all in supporting such a role.
Nie Wei, another old lady who had conflicts with Gui Yalei in the play, found Sun Guitian, an old senior. She was not famous when she was young, but became popular unexpectedly after retirement. Her many years of drama performance experience and life experience made her very comfortable in interpreting many female elderly roles with different personalities. She also looked very plump. In addition, she was a native Kyoto actress, and this was a play to be filmed in Kyoto, so Nie Wei invited her.
A few days later, the role of the old man in the play was quickly found, and Lei Kesheng became the final candidate for this role.
After the three main elderly roles were settled, Tangren also responded quickly.
There was no problem with Hu Ge's performance. Even Cai Yinong did not discuss the salary with Nie Wei. Just like a parent facing a teacher, Nie Wei let him discipline Hu Ge casually.
Of course, Nie Wei would not really not pay Hu. Although Hu Ge had some fame because of the Fairy Sword, he was just a supporting actor after all, and he had not even acted in a movie. How high could his salary be? Nie Wei gave him 50,000 yuan according to the industry price.
Even Lin Yifei, Nie Wei did not pay much. Although she was famous enough, she was also a new film star after all, and had no works to prove herself, so the salary was only the highest price of 300,000 yuan for newcomers.
Of course, in the contract, Nie Wei gave Lin Yifei 1% of the box office profit as a share, which was something Hu Ge could not enjoy.
There was only one important role left, that was the first male lead. Currently, Huang Xiaoming and Cheng Kun were nominated. The two had nearly a month to prepare. At that time, Nie Wei would hold a special audition for the two. Who was better would naturally be determined by then. Those who were good would join the group immediately, and those who were not good would have to wait for the next opportunity.
But before that, Nie Wei had to participate in one thing, that was Zhang Jizhong's wedding.
As a famous producer in the circle, Zhang Jizhong's name is even bigger than some stars, so when Nie Wei and Shu Chang arrived at the scene that day, there were already many reporters waiting outside, obviously all of them were here to take pictures of the stars.
As soon as Nie Wei and Shu Chang got out of the car, they were immediately treated with supreme respect by these reporters.
"Hello, Nie Wei, are you here to attend Mr. Zhang's wedding?"
"Are you familiar with Mr. Zhang's partner?"
"How do you want to bless the two of you at the wedding? How much gift money do you prepare? Do you have any gifts?"
These messy questions made Nie Wei laugh and cry, so he simply didn't answer any of them. He just waved to both sides with a smile, and immediately walked into the hotel with Shu Chang.
As soon as they entered the hall, they both breathed a sigh of relief. There were no reporters here to disturb them.
Zhang Jizhong was welcoming guests at the door of the restaurant. As soon as Nie Wei and Shu Chang came in, he saw them and immediately greeted them enthusiastically.
"Nie Wei, Shu Chang, this way." Zhang Jizhong greeted with a big laugh.
"Uncle Zhang, I wish you and your wife a long and happy life together. This is the red envelope and gift that Shu Chang and I have prepared for you." Nie Wei hugged Shu Chang and Zhang Jizhong gently, and then took out his own red envelope and gift.
Nie Wei and Shu Chang gave Zhang Jizhong a gift of 360,000 yuan, which means good luck, and Nie Wei chose a pair of white jade pendants with dragons and phoenixes, which means auspiciousness.
These gifts are worth more than 500,000 yuan, which is definitely a heavy gift.
"Thoughtful, thoughtful." Zhang Jizhong smiled brightly after seeing the gift. Nie Wei's gift was full of sincerity, which made Zhang Jizhong feel very proud.
"Come in, I've reserved a seat for you at the main table." Zhang Jizhong was about to take Nie Wei to the main table, but Nie Wei waved his hand and replied, "Uncle Zhang, your table is full of leaders, and Shu Chang and I don't feel comfortable staying here. Just arrange a table for us, don't bother us."
"Okay, but you have to come and help me and Fan Xin drink later." Zhang Jizhong thought that Nie Wei's words were right, and he didn't persuade him anymore, but he didn't forget to make a joke with Nie Wei to show his closeness.
Soon Nie Wei was personally led by Zhang Jizhong to a table, which was very close to the main table, separated by an aisle.
After all, Nie Wei's status was there, and Shu Chang's reputation was not bad. How could Zhang Jizhong arrange these two people in a corner?
When Nie Wei and Shu Chang sat down, there were not many people at the table, but as time passed, people gradually arrived, and Nie Wei's table gradually had guests, and many of them were Nie Wei's acquaintances.
For example, Hu Jun was also arranged to sit at this table, as was Zhou Xun.
It’s just that Zhou Xun’s face is not very good today. The main reason is naturally Li Yapeng who is sitting next to Nie Wei. The two became acquainted because of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but the good times did not last long. Li Yapeng soon cheated on Wang Tianhou. From then on After that, the two became lovers and turned into enemies. Now that they met at the wedding ceremony, Zhou Xun felt even more terrible.
Nie Wei was also very embarrassed about this crucial matter. I don’t know where Li Yapeng made the mistake. He actually pulled Nie Wei to talk about Wang Fei. While praising Nie Wei’s music creation, he also spoke highly of his wife’s musical attainments. , the key voice was not quiet, at least everyone at the table could hear it. Nie Wei saw Zhou Xun's expression obviously embarrassed.
This is unbearable. Isn't this old boy using himself as a gunman?
Nie Wei quickly realized that Li Yapeng was not showing off his wife with himself. He was obviously showing off his wife with his ex Zhou Xun. From Nie Wei's understanding, Li Yapeng's current mentality can be summed up in one sentence: "At least I have lived." Better than that. ’.
Better than who? Needless to say, Zhou Xun.
It happened that Zhou Xun was indeed single at this time, and this way of showing off undoubtedly caused tens of thousands of critical damage points to Zhou Xun.
Seeing Zhou Xun trying to put on a natural face, Nie Wei felt that as the company's major shareholder, he still had an obligation to help his artists.
"Nie Wei, my fiancée admires your music very much. She liked the three songs very much and wanted to collaborate with you. By the way, we are going to have a wedding soon. Let's have a good chat then. ?" Li Yapeng said with a proud look.
In his opinion, even if Nie Wei is well-known in the music circle, he will definitely be tempted when he hears that Wang Fei wants to actively ask for cooperation, so after speaking, he is looking forward to Nie Wei's reaction.
"laugh."
"Um?"
Li Yapeng felt that his eyes were a bit blurry, and Nie Wei smiled, but it was not a smile of joy and excitement, but a laugh. Was he hallucinating?
Just when Li Yapeng was still wondering if there was something wrong with his ears, Nie Wei spoke.
"Mr. Li, don't you know that your fiancée and I are not very close?"
Li Yapeng was startled at first for Nie Wei's only words, and looked a little embarrassed. Especially when he noticed that Nie Wei looked at him with a trace of undisguised mockery after finishing speaking in that plain tone, Li Yapeng was even more dumbfounded. , this unfamiliarity is not superficial, it obviously means that the relationship between the two is not good.
"Mr. Nie, are you kidding me?" After coming back to his senses, Li Yapeng asked with an awkward smile.
"I'm not kidding, tell the truth." Nie Wei's face remained calm, as if he was talking about something insignificant: "At first, your fiancée's personal feelings affected my work. Although the misunderstanding was later resolved, she still gave me my job. It caused unnecessary trouble, so we reached a consensus and didn’t interact too much.”
"Of course, I admire your fiancée's musical ability. She is a rare good singer, but cooperation is not necessary. I think she thinks so too."
As Nie Wei said this, he saw Li Yapeng's face turning red quickly, with unconcealable embarrassment, and anger in his eyes. After all, Nie Wei's slap in the face was too sudden and too harsh.
Shu Chang next to Nie Wei was a little confused. She didn't understand why Nie Wei suddenly opened fire on Li Yapeng, but this did not prevent her from standing on Nie Wei's side. The little girl had already hugged one of Nie Wei's arms tightly when Nie Wei spoke. arm, and then stared at Li Yapeng, indicating that his position was definitely on Nie Wei's side.
At this moment, Zhou Xun looked at Nie Wei with shining eyes. She instantly felt that this big boy was doing it for her, which made her feel very warm in her heart, especially when she saw Li Yapeng's embarrassed look. , which made her feel quite relieved.
The rest of the people at the table were speechless at the moment. After Nie Wei's words, everyone was silent for a moment.
What I fear most is that the air suddenly becomes quiet...
Li Yapeng struggled for a long time in these silent seconds. Nie Wei's words brought him complete ridicule. He wanted to punch the boy angrily to make him understand what it means to respect the old and love the young, but then he He also thought about Nie Wei's reputation in the industry, his status as the major shareholder of Huayi Company, his rich net worth and mysterious background. The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid. In the end, he was afraid. The anger that was almost full gradually calmed down, but the embarrassment did not decrease, but became more.
"Haha, since it's a misunderstanding, just let it go. I'm going to the bathroom." Li Yapeng found an excuse and hurriedly escaped from the table.
Just as Li Yapeng turned around and wanted to leave, someone smiled softly, causing his already fast pace to speed up by another three points, and he fled the scene accompanied by the laughter of the whole table.
"I dare to bet you that he won't come back for a while." Hu Jun whispered to Nie Wei. As someone who has been through this, he couldn't stand what Li Yapeng did just now.
Nie Wei nodded noncommittally. At this moment, Zhou Xun, who was sitting opposite Nie Wei, came over and sat directly in Li Yapeng's seat.
"There should be no one here." Zhou Xun's hoarse voice sounded, which not only gave people a sense of vicissitudes of life, but also was playful and very charming.
"Sister Zhou Xun, you and Brother Hu Jun have come to an agreement." Nie Wei replied with a smile.
"Really, it seems that we have the same idea and we have the opportunity to act together." Zhou Xun smiled and said to Hu Jun, who naturally praised him repeatedly.
"Thank you." Zhou Xun turned around, with a look of emotion in his eyes, and whispered to Nie Wei to thank him.
"Nothing, today is a wedding, be happy." Nie Wei replied with a smile. It was normal for Nie Wei to protect his own artists.
After hearing what Nie Wei said, Zhou Xun couldn't help but laugh and said, "I'm really happy now."
What happened next was just as Hu Jun guessed. Li Yapeng never came back. He didn't even escape from the table, but directly fled the scene. I don't know what excuse he made. Anyway, Nie Wei didn't see him from the time he went to the bathroom until the end of the wedding.
"Chat with me for a while, I don't want to go upstairs now." Nie Wei sent Shu Chang to the door of the house, and the girl suggested.
Nie Wei would naturally not refuse this. In fact, he brought Shu Chang to the wedding today just to compensate the girl. After all, because of work, Nie Wei has been very negligent towards Shu Chang recently.
As the two chatted, they somehow guessed about Nie Wei's new movie. Nie Wei rarely told Shu Chang about these things, but the girl was also curious, especially since the heroine of this movie was Lin Yifei.
"How is the new movie going?"
"It's basically ready. The only thing left is who to choose for the male lead. Huang Xiaoming and Cheng Kun, choose one."
"That girl Xixi will definitely choose Huang Xiaoming, and you must hope that Cheng Kun will play it." Shu Chang said affirmatively when he heard it.
"Guessed right." Nie Wei smiled and gave Shu Chang a thumbs up. The latter looked so proud at this moment.
"What about you, which one do you think is suitable?" Nie Wei asked Shu Chang, he also wanted to hear the opinions of bystanders.
"I can't answer this." Shu Chang did not give an answer, and Nie Wei did not force it. The atmosphere in the car was silent for a while. After more than ten seconds, Shu Chang suddenly asked: "Nie Wei, when can we work together on the next movie?"
"Soon." Nie Wei was stunned, and then immediately answered.
"How soon?" Shu Chang continued to ask.
"The story is already there, do you want to hear it?" Nie Wei was silent for a while, and suddenly said. When the voice just fell, Shu Chang, who had a melancholy face, became energetic, and looked at Nie Wei with a pair of beautiful crescent eyes smiling, full of surprise.
"Tell me quickly!" Shu Chang asked in an impatient tone.
Thanks to the reward support of Wan Gu Xing Chen 123.
