Millennium Director

Chapter 247 Daily Life, First Hearing of Bazaar Star Charity Night

"Ah, I was born to be tired."

Wu Yuan walked out of the special effects company with a tired body and looked up at the moon in the sky.

Kobe has seen Los Angeles at 4 a.m., but has he seen the moon in Beijing at 4 a.m.?

Wu Yuan saw it today, and it was not very beautiful.

"Director Wu, thank you for your hard work." Xiao Zhang, who had also been waiting for him to take him home, came up and handed Wu Yuan a thermos cup.

Taking a sip from the thermos cup, Wu Yuan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Soak wolfberries in a thermos cup?"

"Xiao Zhang, it's not long since my 25th birthday. I don't need to start health care so early, right?"

"Although you are still young, you still have to take care of your health." Xiao Zhang said disapprovingly: "You are busy every night until the early morning. Drinking some wolfberries is good for your health."

Wu Yuan had no choice but to accept his statement. While drinking wolfberry tea, he walked towards the nanny car.

"Director Wu, are we going home directly, or to Sister Yifei's place?" Xiao Zhang asked cautiously after getting into the driver's seat.

Wu Yuan rolled his eyes at him: "Hey, Yifei is three years younger than you, do you have the nerve to call her sister?"

Xiao Zhang smiled innocently and didn't answer.

Seeing that Liu Yifei was about to live with Director Wu, he was not a fool. Of course, he could see that Director Wu was not just playing around, but was going to get married in the future.

As the boss's wife, she had to call her sister.

As a professional assistant, Xiao Zhang had been in the circle for several years and had learned to be smooth.

But Wu Yuan didn't like people around him to do this. He laughed and scolded: "Don't call me that anymore, just call me Yifei."

"It's so late, why go to her house, it's not good if you get photographed by paparazzi."

"Just go home."

Wu Yuan has already moved to his new home in Dongshan Villa. The quadrangle passed down from his ancestors has been completely sealed up. It will be regularly maintained in the future. He will definitely not sell it as an ancestral property, but he will not live there anymore.

As an old Beijinger, he has no quadrangle complex at all. He likes to live in modern luxury villas.

In addition to the two villas, Wu Yuan also used his spare money to buy several large flats in the city center.

While Beijing has not yet implemented real estate purchase restrictions, he has to buy it early, so that he will not lose money whether he sells it or lives in it himself in the future.

Just a few days after Wu Yuan moved into Dongshan Villa, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli packed up their things and moved in together.

The clothes of the two of them could fit into a space as big as two bedrooms. Fortunately, Wu Yuan and Liu Xiaoli had anticipated this and arranged two cloakrooms on each floor during the decoration, which were specially used to store clothes.

Stars can do without anything, but clothes, pants, shoes, bags and jewelry are absolutely indispensable.

After Liu Yifei moved into Dongshan Villa, she found that Wu Yuan had very few clothes, and most of them were formal or casual clothes of the same style.

So her shopping desire came up immediately. She dragged her sisters to go shopping for a week and bought hundreds of sets of clothes for Wu Yuan, filling up the cloakroom of the master bedroom.

"Brother, this watch was picked out by me specifically for you."

"I saw that you have been wearing a Patek Philippe watch all the time, so I bought this brand."

Liu Yifei carefully took off the Patek Philippe that Wu Yuan had worn for several years and that Jerry had given him, and replaced it with her new watch.

It is also dual time zone and Patek Philippe. The difference is that this watch is gold instead of platinum. It is more expensive and the dial is inlaid with diamonds.

To be honest, Wu Yuan doesn't like gold things. He feels that this color is too tacky, but this watch is a gift from his girlfriend.

He shook his wrist with some curiosity and admired the watch on his wrist, which was so new that it reflected light. He asked with interest: "Isn't this watch cheap?"

"You have been buying me clothes, pants and shoes all this time. Now you buy me a watch. Won't your coffers be empty?"

Liu Yifei is still able to make money now. After all, the income of actors is skyrocketing in the general environment.

In terms of film pay, her salary is indeed not very high. The current quotation is only 4 million per movie. This is the salary of mainland actresses, second only to Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi, and about the same as Zhou Xun.

Mainly because of the box office performance of "Your Name", her status has been raised.

It's just that this price is out of demand. There are almost no movies willing to pay her this price to act, otherwise she wouldn't have the time to sing.

Speaking of which, the pay of mainland movie actors exceeded 10 million only after 2010, and it doubled every year.

It's just that actresses all over the world suffer from unequal pay for equal work. Actresses of the same fame can only get two-thirds to half of the pay of male actors.

So for Liu Yifei, her main source of income is not the pay, but the endorsement fee after she becomes famous.

Just the endorsement of several domestic and Japanese brands, and the global endorsement of Tissot watches that she is negotiating, can bring her nearly 10 million in income a year.

Add some brand activities and stage appearances, and Liu Yifei earned more than 10 million last year.

This money does seem to be a lot, but it is nothing compared to Wu Yuan.

And most of her money is in the hands of Liu Xiaoli, who helps her make some investments and buys properties in various places.

Liu Yifei's own small treasury is estimated to have only one or two million.

It is definitely enough for daily living expenses, but now that she has suddenly bought so many things for Wu Yuan, plus a watch worth nearly one million, she is afraid that she will have no money on hand.

However, she raised her head and patted Wu Yuan's shoulder with a strong attitude: "Don't worry about this, I am a small rich woman now, and I can more than support you."

"Hehe." Wu Yuan laughed happily, "This is a good relationship, I can also eat gigolo."

But although he said so, his hands did not stop moving, he took out his wallet from his pocket, took out a card from the bag, and stuffed it into Liu Yifei's hand.

"Take this card, when you need big money, you should use the money in this card, and keep your small treasury for shopping and eating with your sisters."

How could Wu Yuan really watch his girlfriend's small treasury run out of money because of buying gifts for him.

But Liu Yifei was not happy, pouting: "I won't spend your money, I am an independent new-age woman!"

Since they started dating, except for giving each other gifts during the New Year and other festivals, she has never spent Wu Yuan's money. Now Wu Yuan came up and stuffed a gold card into her pocket, which made her unhappy.

What does this mean?

It's not like she can't make money to support herself, so does she really need to be kept?

Living with Wu Yuan is fine, she's not the kind of person who has no place to live, but using Wu Yuan's card to swipe it casually is indeed a bit of a materialistic thing, and she's not with Wu Yuan for money.

Seeing Liu Yifei's stubborn and dissatisfied eyes, Wu Yuan immediately regretted it and hurriedly coaxed her: "Xixi, I didn't mean that. I just wanted to treat you better because I saw you bought so many things for me and I was happy."

"Hehe." Liu Yifei snorted and stuffed the card back into Wu Yuan's hand, "I am happy to buy things for you, just keep it if you are happy."

"It's not that I can't afford this little money. I have saved a lot of money with my mother."

"Okay." Wu Yuan stretched out his hand and held Liu Yifei in his arms, comforting her: "Yes, yes, our little rich woman Liu Yifei is rich, why does she need to spend my money."

"Humph." The little girl's emotions came and went quickly. Under Wu Yuan's coaxing, the cloudy weather soon turned sunny again. She happily hugged him with her backhand, skipped this topic, and talked about another thing.

"Brother, the Bazaar Star Charity Night initiated by Su Mang invited me to attend again this year."

"It will be held at the Huaxia Hotel in Beijing on September 8. If I refuse again, will it be bad?"

The Bazaar Star Charity Night was initiated and founded by Su Mang in 2003. It has been held for four consecutive sessions so far, and this year is the fifth session.

At the beginning of the first few sessions, because Liu Yifei was underage and the Bazaar Charity Night was not yet famous, there was no contact between the two.

But last year, that is, the Bazaar Star Charity Night in 2006, Su Mang relied on her long arms and good communication skills to make this dinner known to the whole country.

Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, Xu Jinglei, Gao Yuanyuan, the four most popular female stars, all attended that night, and 300 celebrities created the most dazzling star feast in China.

Not only did Zhang Ziyi personally press the start button for the charity night, Zhou Xun also sang a touching song "Garden of Happiness" on stage.

There were also 16 international brands supporting the charity night and supporting Bazaar.

In the end, the finale of the night was auctioned by Wang Zhongjun of Huayi at the highest price of 1.7 million yuan.

The dinner raised more than 3.5 million yuan in charity funds.

At that time, Bazaar Star Charity Night also sent invitations to Wu Yuan and Liu Yifei, but last September, both of them were not free. How could they return to China specifically for Bazaar when they were in love in Los Angeles? They postponed it.

This year, Wu Yuan still does not plan to go. He has no interest in this kind of show.

Although Bazaar has indeed done a lot of good things and raised a lot of money in the first few years since its establishment.

But this charity gala is still too high-profile. On the surface, it seems to promote charity, but behind the scenes it is all business.

Su Mang gained both fame and fortune with this thing, earning money from brands and fame from celebrities, and finally became a famous "philanthropist and fashionista".

Wu Yuan did not intend to use his fame to build momentum for Su Mang and achieve her fame and fortune.

However, Liu Yifei was different. She was kind-hearted and often paid attention to charity matters on weekdays. She was also very keen on doing charity. After making money, she would make anonymous donations when she saw disasters or poverty in some places.

Now she became famous earlier and higher than in the dream, so she was also targeted by Su Mang earlier.

She must be interested in this kind of charity activities in the circle.

Wu Yuan remembered that in the dream, Liu Yifei seemed to have participated in ten consecutive Bazaar Charity Nights since 2008, and she also attended the following sessions sporadically and donated money.

Sure enough, when Wu Yuan lowered his head and looked at her, he saw an eager look in her eyes.

Wu Yuan tapped her forehead with a smile, "If you want to go, go ahead. Why ask me? Just make your own decision."

"So, are you going, senior brother?"

"No."

"Really not?"

"No, I don't like doing charity in such a high profile."

"Okay." Liu Yifei sighed, a little disappointed.

She thought she could walk the red carpet of Bazaar with Wu Yuan.

Clenching her hands, Liu Yifei was not the type to cling to others. After being rejected after asking twice, she snorted and said, "If you don't want to go, then don't go. Then I'll go by myself!"
