Chapter 518 Engagement
July 2nd.
Gu Wei drove the young lady to a clothing store. This clothing store was a handicraft shop that specialized in custom-made dresses. The two had been here once before and had measured the sizes of the clothes.
Gu Wei had an evil idea in his mind and asked Liu Yifei to wear a cheongsam as her engagement dress. Of course, the cheongsam was only used for taking engagement photos and keeping as a souvenir, otherwise it would be freezing cold and the two of them would not be able to wear thin clothes to the engagement banquet.
Gu Wei's dress was a suit. He had maintained a good figure and looked better in a suit.
In the clothing store, when Liu Yifei put on the cheongsam, Gu Wei was mesmerized.
The red cheongsam is beautiful and exquisite. Although it is red, when worn by Liu Yifei, it has an inexplicable elegance. In the original time and space, netizens said that Jingtian was a rich and beautiful woman in the world, but in Gu Wei's eyes, the young lady was also graceful and elegant.
Liu Yifei felt embarrassed when Gu Wei looked at her, but she still looked at herself in the mirror and thought that the cheongsam looked pretty good on her.
"Director Gu, this way please."
Hearing the waiter's voice, Gu Wei came to his senses and changed into a suit. The two of them standing together looked quite well matched.
The owner of the clothing store took a few photos of the two of them, and then suggested that the photos could be used as a promotion for the clothing store, and the two dresses were also given to the two of them as gifts.
"No need." Gu Wei directly rejected the other party.
Just like buying jewelry, when it comes to engagement items, Gu Wei doesn't want to get them through endorsement or as gifts.
Although several sets of clothes would cost a lot of money in total, they certainly couldn't save any money. After taking the photos and paying the bill, Liu Yifei happily left the dress shop holding Gu Wei's hand.
Back home, Gu Wei took out the box from the safe and opened it. Liu Yifei's eyes lit up: "So beautiful!"
She picked up the bracelet and put it on her hand, then asked Gu Wei to put the jade pendant on her, and then put the jade pendant around the waist of her cheongsam.
Seeing the appearance of the young lady, Gu Wei couldn't help but admire his own vision. These three jade ornaments matched Liu Yifei's outfit very well. Wearing these three jade ornaments, the young lady looked noble and gorgeous, and full of beauty.
Liu Yifei stood in front of the mirror, constantly looking left and right, with a happy expression on her face. The more she looked, the more satisfied she became.
The next day, their engagement party was held in a star-rated hotel. Gu Wei toasted all the relatives and friends of the young lady, including the aunts and uncles.
After going around in circles, Gu Wei felt a little dizzy. He usually never heard the young lady talk about relatives at home. How come so many people suddenly came when something happened?
To be honest, this is also because Liu Yifei usually lives with Liu's mother, and Gu Wei has no chance to meet Liu's father's relatives. To be honest, the An family is not a small family. Even if only the closest relatives came today, there are more than 50 people.
……
"Liu Yifei: In this world of countless things, I love three things. The sun, the moon and you. The sun is for the morning, the moon is for the evening, and you are for every morning and every evening!"
After the engagement party, Gu Wei greeted Cao Guowei and then updated a Weibo post with an engagement photo of himself and Liu Yifei.
In addition to the photo of the two of them, there is also a photo of the two families, with a big red word "engagement" in the middle.
"Gu Wei: When the mountains are gone, the rivers dry up, the winter thunders roar, the summer snows, and the heaven and earth unite, then I dare to break off with you."
At the same time, Liu Yifei's Weibo was also updated. In addition to the photos with Gu Wei, there were also several beautiful photos of cheongsam and three pieces of jade ornaments.
The two people's Weibo updates directly caused Weibo to explode, and the entire Weibo area became lively.
Gu Wei's Weibo is very lively. After all, Gu Wei often doesn't update his Weibo for a year. The last Weibo post was when Gu Wei broke the global box office record, which is more than half a year ago.
"Congratulations, Director Gu, you've finally found your beautiful bride! We're waiting for your wedding candy!"
I have to say that the leader seemed to have been prepared in advance. He instantly occupied the first floor and sent out many blessings immediately.
"Congratulations, Director Gu. I look forward to attending your wedding soon." Zhou Xun followed closely and also offered his blessings.
"Congratulations, Director Gu, Yifei."
"Congratulations…"
Afterwards, Qin Hao, Chen Minghao, Hu Ge, Tong Liya, Zhao Liying from his own company…
Song Ge, Ning Hao, Wu Ershan, Lu Yang, Xu Zheng, Wu Jing, Jiang Xueruo, Wang Chen, Wang Jinghua, Chen Guofu…
The big names in the circle are Fan Binbin, Li Binbin, Zhao Yanzi, Zhang Ziyi...
Liu Yifei's friends Su Chang, Jane Zhang, Xie Nan, Liu Yan...
The major directors in the industry, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Jiang Wen, Feng Xiaogang...
The CEOs of major film and television companies, Han Sanping, Wang Zhonglei, Wang Zhongjun, Qin Hong, Wang Changtian, Ye Ning, Yu Dong, Lu Zheng...
In addition to the male and female celebrities in the circle, there were hundreds of people who sent their blessings on Weibo.
On the other side is the Weibo headquarters.
At this moment, Cao Guowei's heart was in his throat. Even though he had been warned in advance, he still underestimated the influence of Gu Wei and Liu Yifei.
"Mr. Cao, the server is almost reaching its limit." The head of the company's technical department came over to report.
"Hurry up and divert them!" "Okay, Mr. Cao."
...
In addition to people in the circle, netizens also came to join in the fun.
"Fuck! Director Gu is engaged like this? Marriage is a grave. How could Director Gu be so depressed as to jump into the grave?" Some netizens said that marriage is a grave.
"Wow~~~ My male idol is gone, my heart is broken!" This is a female fan of Gu Wei, who was heartbroken after seeing that he got engaged.
Although everyone knows that Gu Wei and Liu Yifei are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, for women, everyone knows that there is no cat that doesn't steal fish.
As long as you hook up with someone, it's good to be a mistress. Which mistress doesn't firmly believe that there are only mistresses who don't work hard, and there is no corner that cannot be pried open.
"Wow~~~ Liu Yifei looks so beautiful in cheongsam, with a delicate face and a great figure!" A male fan was immediately attracted when he saw Liu Yifei in a red cheongsam in the photo.
"Congratulations to Director Gu and Yifei on welcoming the joy of life! I wish them to keep up the good work and have a baby soon!" These are pure fans, with only full blessings.
The QQ group and WeChat group that Gu Wei and Liu Yifei were in were all exploding, with everyone enthusiastically discussing their engagement.
After all, except for a very few people who knew about Gu Wei’s engagement, most people only found out after it was posted on Weibo.
Gu Wei kept replying in several QQ and WeChat groups. Although he also wanted to send some red envelopes to have fun together, WeChat red envelopes would not appear until next year when payment was enabled. As for QQ red envelopes, they would not be available until another year later.
Although WeChat was founded in 11 and only became widely popular in 13, compared with QQ, WeChat is more convenient and efficient, and has become popular very quickly.
"Congratulations to Director Gu and Yifei on their engagement!"
"Congratulations to Director Gu for getting the beauty!"
...
QQ groups and WeChat groups were filled with messages wishing Gu Wei well, which made Gu Wei feel very warm in his heart.
Gu Wei thanked everyone for their blessings in the WeChat group and QQ group, and said that he would treat them to wedding candy next.
Liu Yifei's Weibo also caused a sensation. After all, Liu Yifei updates her Weibo quite frequently and her Weibo fans are very active. As soon as Liu Yifei updated her Weibo, her fans immediately went wild.
"Yifei is so beautiful and noble!"
"A talented man and a beautiful woman, congratulations to Xixi and Director Gu for their marriage!" These are relatively normal fans.
"Is Gu Wei worthy of Yifei?" This was a deliberate attempt to stir up trouble and immediately angered many netizens.
"How can he not be worthy? Director Gu has won the Oscar for Best Director and the Golden Bear Award, and the movies he made have created the highest box office in the world..." Someone immediately refuted with a vicious tone.
"Alright, alright, we're all family, why are you arguing? I wish Yifei and Gu Wei a baby soon!" These were the two groups of people who couldn't stand the quarrel.
"One is a filmmaker, the other is an actor, they are just getting engaged, haha!" This is a sarcastic remark.
"I'm eating your rice. Stop talking nonsense here and get out of here." This is what the fans of both of them joined forces to attack each other.
In less than five minutes, the news of Gu Wei and Liu Yifei's engagement topped the trending searches list, and even the following four trending searches were taken up.
Among them, the second hot search was "Another couple is born in the director circle", the third was "Liu Yifei's cheongsam photo", the fourth was "Liu Yifei's jade ornaments are priceless", and the fifth was "Counting the brilliant achievements of director Gu Wei".
The two of them occupied the top five hot news searches, causing Wang Feng, who had just held a concert and wanted to make headlines, to faint in the toilet crying. Why is it so difficult to make headlines? I have been very serious and worked very hard.
"Wow, the jade bracelets, jade pendants and jade pendants are worth hundreds of millions. Director Gu is so rich!" Some people were shocked after seeing the analysis of jewelry professionals.
Because several jewelry experts gave estimates ranging from 1.3 million to 1.5 million, this also overturned many people's imagination.
"I am ignorant. Gu Wei is on the Forbes rich list in China which was just released." Someone posted a screenshot, which showed the ranking of the rich list. The first one was the president of Wanda, and Gu Wei was the only one in the entertainment industry who made the list.
You have to know that this is not a celebrity rich list. The money earned by those so-called top domestic superstars in a year is far less than that earned by Gu Wei.
"Don't you know that the market value of Director Gu's two companies at home and abroad is an astronomical figure." Some people expressed disdain, saying they only found out about it now.
"Isn't Huayi the number one film and television company in mainland China? Why does it feel like Xingchen Film and Television has a higher market value?" someone commented curiously.
"Haha, even if Huayi Company goes public, it is still not as good as Xingchen Film and Television. Do you know how much money Director Gu made just from the box office of movies? Hundreds of millions, and it's in US dollars." A netizen said.
Among Liu Yifei's fans, a large number of them are fascinated by her because of her beautiful appearance.
So the comments were full of sourness, which caused dissatisfaction among many fans.
Of course, in addition to the media carnival, Longfeng Jewelry and Custom Dress Shop became the biggest beneficiaries, and they were the first to say that the jade ornaments and dresses were theirs, and they also thanked Director Gu Wei and Ms. Liu Yifei for their trust in them.
Both companies were in the news and their popularity soared.
