From e-sports to top-tier movie stars in the Chinese entertainment industry

Chapter 46 Top Star's Grudge Movie Begins Filming

"Let me remind you, this industry is very complicated, don't get scammed," Zhou Dongyu said before turning and leaving.

It has to be said that although Little Yellow Duck is at the bottom in everything, it really goes all out and is very hardworking.

They can eat anything!!!

On the other side, not long after Zhou Ye left the RV, Zhang Yifan and several young actors immediately surrounded him.

"Zhou Ye, you actually know Gu Yi?"

"More than just acquaintances, we're childhood friends!"

Zhou Ye smiled and recounted how the two recognized each other, leaving everyone amazed by the wonder of fate.

She wasn't smug.

However, others no longer looked down on Zhou Ye.

The extras who originally wanted to make a deal with the director to get the role of Zhou Ye have all stopped trying.

After all, the male lead's opinion is very important.

However, the fans outside the film set were a little confused.

"Isn't our Millennium coming today?"

"What are you thinking about? He's preparing for his birthday rehearsal."

"Yeah, so what are we doing here?"

"Consider it a reconnaissance trip!!!"

"And now?"

"Of course, we're going to the venue!!"

On the other side, agent Li Xiang was having a headache looking at the documents. He had just learned that Gu Yi had actually invested in "The Wandering Earth".

This is a movie that even Tencent only dared to invest a few million to test the waters with, but this kid actually invested 900 million. He's simply courting death.

He also invested in the animated film "Ne Zha," and even outsiders knew how desperately the project was for money.

No wonder Mr. Wang treats him so well.

Isn't this 1000 million simply a gesture of goodwill?

Unfortunately, his media company had no one.

However, I can receive two salaries, so it's not a loss.

In fact, Gu Yi didn't intend to hire many people for this company, because three or four people would be enough.

Finance, one.

Managing documents and materials, one.

One person was responsible for purchasing the novel's copyright.

The main reason is that Gu Yi hasn't planned to assemble a production team yet. After all, during the mask-making period, it's not a good time for the company to have a large workforce.

A light-capital operation is sufficient.

That evening, Zhou Ye returned to his hotel room.

She immediately sent a WeChat message to her sister, Zhou Siqi.

"Sis, Gu Yi wants me to sign with his studio."

Zhou Siqi quickly called.

"Gu Yi?"

She confirmed it again.

"right!!!"

"Didn't he go play League of Legends?"

"He's an actor again now, and he's even in the same production crew as me!"

"That's great! I was so worried about you not signing with a company and auditioning on your own. It's so dangerous!"

Zhou Ye sat on the sofa, somewhat hesitant.

"If I sign, he'll be the boss, and I'll be the employee. He'll bully me to death!"

"Silly little sister."

Zhou Siqi thought to herself, feeling helpless.

You just need to stop bullying him!

"You said he has fiber optic and Tencent backing his studio, so he definitely won't have to worry about resources. Most importantly, you know each other well and have a family relationship, so he won't treat you unfairly."

A flicker of hesitation crossed Zhou Ye's eyes.

"If you go to film sets and negotiate contracts all by yourself, without a team to help you avoid pitfalls, you're bound to suffer sooner or later."

Seeing that she didn't speak, Zhou Siqi continued to persuade her.

"As for feelings, would you do anything to betray him? If not, then what are you worried about?"

"Let me think about it some more."

After hanging up the phone,

Zhou Ye lay sprawled on the sofa, deep in thought.

Meanwhile, the discussions about Gu Yi being suddenly appointed as the male lead gradually subsided, and the production team entered the final preparation stage for filming.

At this moment, during a rehearsal for a birthday party, Zhang Yifan sent back news from Times Style, which eventually reached Qianxi's ears.

"Damn it!"

His face was terribly gloomy.

He then slammed the microphone he was holding onto the ground.

"Bang!!!"

The staff were so frightened they trembled and dared not approach.

The agent rushed over to comfort him.

"Millennium, don't be angry. Alibaba just sent a message saying they've found you a better resource."

"Is it resources that I care about?"

Millennium's voice was icy.

"What bothers me is that they kept it from me!"

"I've been working on this role for two years. How many two-year periods do you have in a lifetime? They didn't even notify me. What do they take me for?"

The agent quickly added.

"It's not like there's nothing at all. Ali has found Wen Muye, and you've been cast as the male lead in his next film. He's the director of 'Dying to Survive,' which was the hottest movie this summer. You won't lose out."

Upon hearing this, Qianxi's anger subsided considerably. He was well aware of Wen Muye's strength, but he was still unwilling to accept it.

"Are we just going to let it go like this?"

"Didn't you go investigate that kid's dirt?"

"What did you find out?"

"I checked, he had a girlfriend in high school, and she was in the entertainment industry, but she dumped him as soon as she signed with a company."

The agent said with a smile.

Millennium laughed.

"Hahaha!"

"So what if he's handsome?"

"It's because I got dumped."

"But we have to do something, right?"

"Otherwise, where would I put my face?"

He excitedly said a lot.

"It's easy to do, but the consequences of attacking him are serious. If the movie loses money, we will offend Director Zeng, Alibaba, and Fiber Optics. I suggest we leave him alone for now."

The agent carefully considered his words before offering advice.

"But I can't swallow this insult."

"No rush, a gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years."

"Isn't he going to be an actor now?"

"From now on, when he's choosing scripts, we'll talk to the director in advance and snatch the good ones away to make him furious."

The agent hit the nail on the head regarding Millennium.

Top stars have priority in choosing resources. Most big-budget dramas will go through their hands first, and only when they stop acting will the roles be given to lower-level actors.

That's why.

One of the reasons why so many celebrities dare not offend top celebrities.

"Besides, he's a singer. When he releases an album or a song, we'll release a song too, and then we'll just crush him."

Millennium's eyes flickered, and he nodded after a long while.

"Okay, we'll do it your way. But you should release the information he's discussed, but don't let him get too cocky."

"But they've already broken up."

"It's precisely because they broke up that it's not too serious; Director Zeng and Ah Li can still save face."

"Alright, I'll see what I can do."

The agent nodded.

But he was reluctant to make a move at this time.

-----------------

On the afternoon of November 28, the film crew of "Better Days" had already started filming. At this time, Gu Yi was acting out an interrogation scene in the interrogation room.

However, the fans outside,

I didn't know that this movie had already started filming.

As for the school's big play, we need to set aside a week to film it so as not to affect the extras and students' classes.

Not long after,

After Gu Yi came out,

Wei Lai's accomplice, Zhang Xinyi, who plays Xu Miao, went into the interrogation room to film the scene where she was being interrogated.

In the movie theater's rest area, a group of girls were sitting on a row of folding chairs.

Gu Yi had just sat down when

Zhou Ye was scrolling through his phone.

Suddenly, he exclaimed "Wow!"
