Chapter 245 Our Own Hero

“Brother, I’ve read everything on the Internet, and it’s all thanks to you this time!

It's all my fault for saying the wrong thing. It seems that you must think twice before speaking in front of the camera in the future! "

As soon as the incident ended, Wu Jing called Gu Wei.

First, he thanked him, and then sighed.

"Brother Jing, we brothers don't have to be so polite with each other.

I think you are very good now. You speak quickly and say things that others dare not say. That is the real man. "

"Haha~ I offended a lot of people because of my quick words."

"There are too many people with incorrect views nowadays. You can't stop telling the truth just because you offend others."

Gu Wei quite likes Wu Jing's character, and some of his views and attitudes coincide with Gu Wei's to a large extent.

The most important point is that Wu Jing insists that Chinese people can also be very awesome.

For a long time, the domestic film market has been influenced by Hollywood blockbusters, and audiences have been accustomed to the concept of Americans saving the world.

This is a subtle cultural output.

In various movies, when the world encounters a major crisis, it is Americans, or rather Westerners, who stand up to save the world.

In Wu Jing's movies, Westerners are often the villains, and Chinese soldiers are the most awesome. I have to say that this is very helpful in cultivating the national self-confidence and pride of ordinary people.

After chatting for a while, Gu Wei hung up the phone, picked up the mineral water in front of him and took a sip.

At this time, the crew's filming had moved to Hengdian Film and Television City, and he had just finished filming a scene and came down to rest.

After a while, Yang Mi, who was also resting after filming, came over and sat on the small chair next to Gu Wei.

She was wearing a blue and white ancient costume, with glossy black hair hanging down from her back. She had a palm-sized face with exquisite facial features, fair and tender skin, and had the elegance of a Jiangnan water town beauty.

"Tsk tsk, Gu Wei, your fans now are really amazing. You can fight against 4 top traffic figures by yourself, and you even got them to apologize in the end. That's awesome~"

Yang Mi is a real Internet expert, and she has always been a fan of the online fan wars these days.

At first I was just watching the excitement, but at first I lamented that the fans of this Korean idol group are very powerful and can do anything to protect their idols.

Unexpectedly, Gu Wei actually ended up later, and then things developed in a dramatic direction. EXO fans were beaten so hard that they were unable to fight back. Several idols who had returned to China came out to speak out one after another, and the last online war quickly subsided. .

"It's not as exaggerated as Miss Mi said. It's just a small friction on the Internet caused by a misunderstanding. Fans' actions are a bit extreme. I always believe that the Internet is not a lawless place. Don't be so violent, just like I said As Weibo said, harmony and friendship are the most important.”

Gu Wei said with a smile.

He didn't take his online victory too seriously.

To be honest, although he has more fans than EXO, the reason why this online conflict defeated the other party so quickly is entirely because the other party did too much before.

Because of one sentence, Wu Jing was exposed on the Internet, and Pu Jing and other post forums with the word "jing" were blasted. This arrogant and mindless behavior itself has angered many passers-by and netizens.

After Gu Wei's fans set up a flag to fight back, they immediately attracted the largest number of passers-by and netizens. Therefore, it seemed that Gu Wei's fans seemed to be particularly large, defeating the other side like an overwhelming force.

In fact, it is with the help of external forces and the blessing of the general trend.

"In the end, you pushed someone to the ground and rubbed them, so of course you can make these sarcastic remarks in an understatement.

Whatever the winner says is right~"

Yang Mi didn't believe what Gu Wei said, but like everyone else in the industry, she also saw through this incident that Gu Wei was as popular as the overlord of domestic entertainment.

The number of fans is not only large but also very united.

EXO is not a small star. The "Four Returned Sons" are all popular and top traffic figures. All kinds of data can prove them. The box office of Lu Han and Li Jiaheng's two movies at the beginning of the year cannot be faked.

Without the help of fans, how could those two low-budget romance films earn nearly 300 million at the box office?

The two chatted for a while, and Yang Mi suddenly thought of something and asked:

"What do you think of these EXO people who have returned to China?"

"Why do you ask that?"

Gu Wei was a little confused.

"After you rejected the movie [I Am a Witness] that [Jiaxing Media] approached you about before, Zeng Jia discussed it with other producers and invited Lu Han to star in it."

"Oh, that's it. In fact, although this incident conflicts with them, I actually don't have any prejudice against these people.

Lu Han? I heard he has a pretty good personality. I might as well get to know him if I have a chance. "

On March 31, the movie "Wolf Warrior" held a press conference in Beijing. Director and starring Wu Jing appeared together with the three leading actors Yu Nan, Ni Dahong, and Shi Zhaoqi.

After the press conference started, Wu Jing walked on stage and said that he wanted to take up some of everyone's time because there were four solo posters of him on the stage. He thought this was not respectful of the entire team.

"This movie doesn't belong to me alone, it belongs to the entire crew. There are many actors who have worked hard, so why only my poster is shown?"

Then, he used the knife brought by the staff and insisted on tearing off the two posters.

Wu Jing said that the original purpose of filming "Wolf Warrior" was to let the audience see a movie that is not a youth film, nor a horror film, nor a science fiction film.

I want to make a Chinese action war drama.

Wu Jing finally filmed "Wolf Warriors", and his wife Xie Nan naturally wanted to support him.

On the same day, Xie Nan also staged a scene that was like a proposal. She knelt down on one knee and held up a bunch of barley that symbolized box office sales and gave it to Wu Jing.

Wu Jingxiao said that he has practiced every muscle but his mouth. Xie Nan just makes up for this, "She is a host. As soon as she comes on stage, I feel that there is no need to use my brain and she can give me a sense of security." "

The preparation for "Wolf Warrior" lasted seven years, and the filming period was extremely difficult. Xie Nan laughed and said that he was left out, "After having a child, he only had 20 minutes to spend with the child every day, and the rest of the time he spent making movies Now, [War Wolf] is his eldest wife, and I’m like a mistress.”

Wu Jing also felt sorry for his wife and son, "She has always relied on her to take care of the family. I have to earn money to support them. My son Wu said something that day, which was 'Dad', and I was not around. I felt very upset." , I owe them so much.”

Even though he said this, Wu Jing still wanted to be a desperate man. He joked that he might start filming the jumping scene again in two months.

At the [Wolf Warrior] press conference, Gu Wei was unable to attend due to the filming tension of the crew, but he specially recorded a VCR to cheer for Wu Jinghe's film.

On the big screen at the press conference, Gu Wei was wearing a flying fish suit, looking handsome and clearly on the set.

"Hello fellow viewers, I am Gu Wei.

Today is the premiere press conference of [Wolf Warrior]. First of all, congratulations to Jing Ge for the movie that he has worked so hard for many years to finally see everyone.

Here I wish this passionate hormone movie that combines action, adventure, tough guy, war and other elements to be a box office hit and soar to the sky.

Ever since I met Brother Jing, I have always been very optimistic about the movies he shoots.

Because I saw that he has been working hard to create the Chinese version of the "lone hero" image and transform the stereotyped image of Chinese soldiers into a "Hollywood-like superhero."

Everyone is used to seeing individualistic heroes from Hollywood in movies, and now our own heroes are coming soon!

Just like what I said on Weibo before, Brother Jing, you are one of the most handsome men in my eyes, a tough guy, full of hormones, a real man!

Finally, I hope everyone can come to support [Wolf Warrior]!

Thanks! "

Gu Wei's VCR playback ended, and the audience burst into applause. The media did not expect such a surprise in today's ordinary movie conference.

They also knew that Wu Jing was exposed online a while ago, and it was Gu Wei who came forward to help him solve the problem in the end. Now he is sending VCRs alone at the movie press conference to cheer. It seems that the relationship between the two is really extraordinary.

The next day, reports about the upcoming movie "Wolf Warrior" came out.

[Wu Jing angrily tears down the "Wolf Warrior" poster, Xie Nan kneels down on one knee and calls himself the "mistress"]

[The "Wolf Warrior" press conference was shot with VCR on the Gu Wei set to help promote the brotherhood between a hot-blooded tough guy and a top-notch boy! 】

[Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior" will be released on April 2, and five shocking highlights are revealed in advance! 】

["Wolf Warrior" is about to be released, and the top ten highlights are fully revealed! 】

【.】

On April 2, [Wolf Warrior] will be released nationwide.

The film's box office on the first day exceeded 40 million, and it attracted over 200 million in the first four days, leading "Kingsman" by 20 million, making the weekly box office champion once again belong to domestic films.

[Kingsman] ranked second with a single-week sales of nearly 200 million, and its cumulative box office exceeded 350 million.

Released on the same day as "Wolf Warriors", the domestic love movie "Let's Get Married" starring Gao Yuanyuan, Jiang Wu and others ranked third with a box office of 174 million.

Except for these three movies, the single-week box office of other films failed to exceed 30 million.

I have to mention here that the second day of the release of "Wolf Warrior", April 3, is also the first day of Qingming Festival, starring Hayden Christensen, Nicolas Cage, Liu Yifei, An Zhijie, "Legend of the White Ghost: Desperate Escape" starring Jike Junyi and others has been released nationwide.

The filming of this movie was completed in 2013. It changed gears twice and changed its name twice. It was originally called "The Last War", and in 2014 it was renamed "Escape". Later, "Legend of the White Ghost" was added.

After many twists and turns, it was finally released during this year’s Qingming Festival.

A few days before the movie was released, Gu Wei saw Liu Yifei's movie promotion video on the Internet, so he also forwarded it on Weibo. After all, it was Liu Yifei's movie, and it was normal for him to take the initiative to do a small favor based on their relationship. .

That night, Liu Yifei called him and expressed her gratitude for his help.

"Sister Yifei, don't be too polite, haven't you often helped me before?

This is a Hollywood movie and it's about to be released. I wish you a big hit at the box office! "

Liu Yifei was not very interested in Gu Wei's blessing.

"Hey~ you don't know, countless things happened in this movie from the filming to the post-release, and I can't even complain to you for a while.

Now that it can finally be released, a stone in my heart has finally fallen into place. As for the box office, it has little to do with me as an actor. I hope I won’t suffer too much loss."

Gu Wei could hear Liu Yifei's disappointment in the movie from her tone.

She originally went for the Hollywood blockbuster and international movie star Nicolas Cage's name, but she was disappointed in every aspect.

Gu Wei didn't say too much. The two chatted for a while and made an appointment to return to the capital to meet again in a few days.

Things tend to develop in the worst direction that people expect. On April 3, the first day "White Ghost Legend: Escape" was released, the box office revenue was only 4.7 million yuan, which is basically negligible in the market.

In the movie, Hollywood star Nicolas Cage fought heroically, but could not save this "bad movie" from fate.

During the four-day Tomb Sweeping Day holiday, "Legend of the White Ghost: Desperate Escape" became a joke in the movie market.

Although this Sino-foreign co-production starred Nicolas Cage, "an old friend of Chinese audiences", the story couldn't stand up to the cliche and childish plot. After the film was released, its reputation was a mess, and it was reduced to market cannon fodder at the box office. The total box office in four days was only 18 million yuan, far less than the domestic films "Wolf Warrior" and "Let's Get Married" in the same period.

As of April 6, the long Tomb-Sweeping Day holiday is over, "Wolf Warrior", which was released for five days, has grossed 250 million in box office. It won the box office championship during the Tomb-Sweeping Festival without any pressure, and also injected a boost into the recently sluggish movie market. Become a real "wolf" in the film market.

The film achieved this result by virtue of its unflattering military war film genre, which caused shock in the industry and became the focus of heated discussions.

"Wolf Warrior" not only became a dark horse during the Qingming Festival in terms of box office performance, but also had a very good reputation. Five days after its release, nearly 100,000 people gave the movie a good score of 7.5 on Douban.

[I am very excited after watching this drama. This is the Chinese spirit. Wu Jing’s tough guy image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. I am looking forward to Wolf Warrior 2]

[I’ve watched so many beautiful boys fall in love and have sex, so it’s so refreshing to watch such a hot movie. The fighting scenes are very enjoyable and exciting. It’s the right time for a pure man, so I recommend it~】

[Besides exploding or burning, this is a movie I still want to watch after watching it. Pay tribute to the Chinese soldiers! 】

[Support the domestic military action movies, special forces are still cool, our soldiers are no worse than those of any other country! The filming was very careful, especially the scene where Wu Jing was hanging under the helicopter was very thrilling! Looking forward to the second part! 】

[Gu Wei’s recommendation is as reliable as ever. PS "Desperate Escape" does not count! 】

【.】

Of course, there are also many people who believe that "Wolf Warrior" is Wu Jing's own obscene drama, that is, the anti-Japanese drama about tearing apart Japanese soldiers and putting it on the big screen.

Others say that Wu Jing won the box office under the banner of "patriotism"!
