Chapter 1280 1382. Final

The traditional jade bracelets in China are all in pairs, and the whole is made of high-quality jade.

But this jade bracelet can't be called a real jade bracelet. It should be called a gold-inlaid jade bracelet. The whole bracelet is about two fingers wide for an adult man. The bracelet ring is made of gold and has a hollow diamond design. It is decorated with a total of sixteen little finger nail-sized imperial green jades.

The bracelet ring is also inlaid with broken diamonds. When the owner shines a flashlight on it, it shines brightly.

Nie Wei put down the bracelet and asked the price casually. Perhaps because he felt that Nie Wei was not very interested in the two accessories, the owner did not dare to quote a higher price and only gave a reasonable offer.

Nie Wei only heard that these two prices were slightly higher than the normal jewelry prices, but considering the antique nature of the jewelry itself, this should be a reasonable offer.

"Put both pieces in place for me." Nie Wei said with a smile.

"Yeah! Yeah?" The owner nodded subconsciously, but when he really reacted, he was stunned in surprise.

"You mean you want both?" The shopkeeper confirmed in disbelief. As Nie Wei nodded in confirmation, he could no longer suppress the joy on his face.

This is really an unexpected surprise.

At the same time, he regretted that the price he offered was too low, so Nie Wei had the idea of ​​buying both. But then he thought again, if his price was not reasonable, would Nie Wei buy it?

The shopkeeper, with a surprise and a little entanglement, packed the two pieces of jewelry and handed them to Nie Wei, and also issued a certificate of expert appraisal.

However, his complicated mood was only pure joy after Nie Wei happily swiped his card to pay the bill. With the original purchase price of these two pieces of jewelry, this transaction made him earn a full 200,000 euros, which is almost the total income of his small shop for three or four years, and it was a year with good income.

And it has been less than two years since he acquired these two pieces of jewelry.

Nie Wei took the two ornaments and left the antique shop. After getting in the car, he casually placed them on the seat beside him. In Nie Wei's opinion, the two ornaments were not so precious. They were unique in their historical value and scarcity. They were not mass-produced jewelry.

It was precisely because of these considerations that Nie Wei bought them all. After all, with his financial resources, he did not need to worry too much about this choice.

After buying the gifts, Nie Wei returned to the hotel. He did not like shopping. He stayed at home most of the time, either working, playing games, watching TV, or exercising in the gym.

This was also a point that made Shu Chang particularly satisfied with Nie Wei.

It is said that men become bad when they have money. This is not absolute, but it is not without reason. At the beginning, Shu Chang was really worried that Nie Wei, who was so rich, would go out to attract bees and butterflies, but in the process of getting along, she gradually discovered that Nie Wei's essence was actually a "homebody".

This attribute is really rare in the entertainment industry.

After all, most people who can become stars like the feeling of being centered around themselves. Even if they are a little introverted at first, they will gradually get into this habit after being in this circle for a long time.

After all, any star with a little popularity is praised and coaxed by their own fans. It has become a habit. Suddenly one day, everyone stops coaxing them. The gap is absolutely tormenting.

Therefore, people who can keep loneliness in private are definitely a rare category in the circle.

Nie Wei stayed at home, which naturally made Shu Chang less worried. Although he would definitely encounter some bad peach blossoms outside, it would be better to reduce some of them than those who hang out in nightclubs and attend parties all day.

Five days passed in a flash, and the crew finally reached the moment of wrapping up.

With the completion of the last set of shots of Joseph, the story of the second part of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" also came to an end. Of course, like the first part, Nie Wei left suspense at the end to arouse the audience's expectations for the third part.

However, the next work will not be shot by Nie Wei. Maybe he will be named as the producer, but Nie Wei will definitely not participate in the specific shooting.

After the work was completed, Nie Wei held a party in the banquet hall of the hotel. He only invited the crew members and actors. Because they were all familiar people, everyone ate and drank, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.

When the banquet was about to end, Nie Wei also announced publicly that he would not be the director of the next sequel.

Everyone expressed great regret for this, but there was no way. This was the decision made by Nie Wei.

When the banquet was over and Nie Wei returned to the hotel room, Joseph came to the door.

"BOSS, are you really not going to shoot the next movie anymore?" Joseph asked uncomfortably. When he heard that Nie Wei would no longer be the director of the sequel, he felt a panic in his heart.

This is also related to Nie Wei's achievements over the years. Every one of his movies has both good box office and good reputation. He seems to have become the weather vane of the entire Hollywood. His choices are always correct. At this time, Nie Wei suddenly gave up the position of director of the sequel. Is he not optimistic about this series of movies?

Joseph also read the reviews online. Compared with Nie Wei's works in recent years, the reputation of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" has indeed dropped slightly. He was worried that Nie Wei had seen something in this situation and resolutely resigned.

"Don't think too much. It has nothing to do with the movie itself. The main reason is that this kind of purely commercial movie is not what I like. It prevents me from fully exerting my abilities. As an actor, you should also understand how uncomfortable it is to be restricted." Nie Wei explained with a smile. Seeing Joseph's sad face, he guessed what he was thinking.

"Work hard and shoot well. When I discussed this series with Ms. Rowling, I wanted to make at least five films. As long as you complete this series seriously, your position as a first-line Hollywood star will definitely be consolidated."

Nie Wei's words calmed Joseph's inner uneasiness.

Yes, what Nie Wei said made sense. At least five films were required for this series, and it was the original work of JK Rowling. His worries were obviously redundant. However, without Director Nie Wei, he still felt quite regretful.

Joseph drank a cup of coffee and said goodbye. He knew that Nie Wei had a flight tomorrow morning and was afraid of disturbing his rest. However, not long after Joseph left, Nina came to the door again, with the same purpose as Joseph.

Nie Wei also comforted Nina with basically the same words.

Taking this opportunity, Nina also expressed her gratitude to Nie Wei. Unlike Joseph, she really turned over this time, successfully turning from a box office poison into a popular movie actress.

She has been relying on the TV series "The Vampire Diaries" for many years, and her popularity has gradually declined. The success of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" has finally allowed her to have her own representative film, and the successful transformation has also allowed her to finally enter the ranks of true Hollywood stars.

As for the monetary gains, let alone.

So in Nina's heart, Nie Wei has a great favor to her, and he is also her boss. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is her benefactor.

After Nie Wei sent Nina away, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. After washing up, Nie Wei had a video call with Shu Chang who was far away in China. During the video call, Nie Wei told Shu Chang the news that he had finished filming.

"Then you can return to China soon, right?" Shu Chang's eyes lit up when he heard the news that Nie Wei had finished filming.

"I will fly directly to your place when I return to China tomorrow. I will arrive at your hotel around 9 or 10 pm. Remember to leave some midnight snacks for me." Nie Wei reported. He had already discussed with Shu Chang. After finishing the filming here, he would immediately go to Mingzhu's crew to accompany Shu Chang for a while.

"Okay, we will go out to eat then. If you arrive early, we will go to Hu Ge's Japanese restaurant. Their food is delicious." Shu Chang answered happily, and his answer was organized. It was obvious that he had already thought of everything.

Nie Wei smiled and nodded in agreement.

The two did not chat for too long. After all, it was very late. Shu Chang had to get up early to film tomorrow, and Nie Wei had to take a flight for about ten hours. They all needed to rest well.

Nie Wei got up on time at five o'clock the next morning, and went to the hotel gym to exercise with Cheng Zimo, who also got up on time. This is how martial arts practice is. If you don't advance, you will retreat. Even if Nie Wei is at his current level, he must keep practicing every day.

In fact, just like martial arts practice, anyone should have such an attitude when doing anything. Perseverance is the basis of success.

It's just that Nie Wei was not very focused when he was exercising today. This was the most profound feeling of Cheng Zimo when Nie Wei was sparring with him. Nie Wei's attention would be on the gloomy weather outside the window from time to time.

He was worried that the bad weather would affect the takeoff of the plane.

He had just looked at the weather forecast. Today, there would be a heavy rain in this romantic city. Nie Wei only hoped that it would be later, at least after he left here, it would thunder as much as it wanted and rain as much as it wanted.

Bad weather was something he couldn't avoid no matter how rich he was, and it was common sense that heavy rain would affect the plane. No one would joke about life, not even Nie Wei himself. If the heavy rain really came early, then his scheduled plan would inevitably be postponed.

Nie Wei seemed to have been hit by Murphy's Law. The more he didn't want something to happen, the more it would happen. Just when Nie Wei finished his exercise and was washing up, a heavy rain suddenly came outside. When Nie Wei walked out of the bathroom in a bathrobe, the entire window had been covered by the water curtain, and it was vaguely foggy outside.

Nie Wei knew that it was not fog, but the heavy rain that formed a curtain of rain.

"It's terrible." Nie Wei muttered, took out his mobile phone, and wanted to send a text message to Shu Chang to tell him about his situation, but he thought about it and didn't send it. After all, if God gave face, the rain would stop in a while.

Nie Wei's thoughts were beautiful, but the reality was very skinny.

Nie Wei arrived at the airport at 8:30. The plane was originally scheduled to take off at 9 o'clock, but until 9:30, the heavy rain outside did not stop, and it was accompanied by lightning from time to time.

Nie Wei stood at the window of the VIP lounge, and he could see his private plane outside the window. Compared with a group of civil airliners, it was slender and delicate, and its appearance showed its pursuit of speed. It also had a black paint job, which was unique among the white civil airliners.

However, in such weather, this plane, which should have been flying in the sky and leaving those "heavy" civil airliners behind, had to succumb to nature and stay at the airport.

Because of the heavy rain, all passengers were stranded at the airport, and the whole airport was noisier than usual. Nie Wei only went out to take a look and then returned to the VIP room. The inside and outside of this gate were like two different worlds, with extremely noisy outside and extremely quiet inside.

Cheng Zimo was wearing headphones and playing with his phone quietly. He was not a talkative person. Nie Wei saw that it was almost ten o'clock and the heavy rain outside was not going to stop. He had to send a text message to Shu Chang, telling him that he might arrive later.

The flight attendant in the VIP room would come to Nie Wei every half an hour to report the weather forecast given by the local meteorological bureau, and ask Nie Wei if he had any needs.

The service was very good, but the airport Nie Wei wanted could not do it. He wanted the sky to clear up. Is this possible?

According to the report of the local meteorological bureau, this heavy rain may even last for a whole day.

Nie Wei actually didn't have to wait at the airport. He was on his own plane. If he didn't come, the plane would not take off. But Nie Wei, who was anxious to return to China, didn't have the heart to go back to the hotel?

At this moment, in Huaxia Mingzhu City, the crew of "In the Name of the People" started a day's work at seven in the morning.

"Sister Shu Chang is in a good mood today?" A field attendant said while chatting with colleagues in his spare time.

These staff members are confined to the crew every day and have little contact with the outside world. What they expect is either the hot news on the Internet or the daily gossip of the star actors in the crew.

"Guess what I heard in the dressing room just now?" When Shu Chang was mentioned, the colleague immediately smiled with a gossipy face.

"What? Tell me when the time comes. What kind of riddle is this?" The stage manager is impatient and has no patience to guess.

However, seeing the anxious look of the stage manager, his colleague was also satisfied and announced the answer directly.

"When I went to the dressing room, Sister Shu Chang was putting on makeup. I heard Shu Chang humming a song when she was putting on makeup."

"Tsk, I thought you heard something big, but it turned out to be just humming. What's the big deal? I hum a song when I take a shower." The stage manager said disdainfully, feeling that his colleague was too exaggerated and made such a small matter mysterious.

The general manager's contemptuous look made the colleague feel insulted. He was originally going to hide the secret for a while, but he immediately revealed it eagerly.

"What do you know? It would be fine if Sister Shu Chang just hummed a song, but the key point is that she chatted with her makeup artist and mentioned someone. Guess who this person is?"
