Chapter 59 Back to school
After the celebration banquet, there was less than a week left before the movie "The Day After Tomorrow" was released.

"200 million, 180 million..."

The box office is gradually decreasing every day, in a very regular way.

Finally, on January 1, "The Day After Tomorrow" was officially taken off the screen, with a total domestic box office of 6 million.

On major portal websites, the words "BOX BOOK OFFICE BREAKING 100 MILLION" were highlighted in bold and placed at the top of the webpage.

Star Film and Television Company.

"I finally finished writing. I am so tired."

Gu Wei twisted his neck, making a few crisp sounds.

He glanced at his watch, then picked up his phone and called Reid on the other side of the ocean.

"Ryder, I just sent you a few scripts. Take them directly to the Writers Guild to register. Report to me if you have any questions."

Logically speaking, these scripts should not have come out yet, but Gu Wei still reminded them just in case.

During the first few days of January, Gu Wei didn't go anywhere and stayed in the company, writing the script. After several days of hard work, he finally got it done.

"Okay, boss, I'll do it right away."

Reid's voice came from the other end of the line.

Reid has always attached great importance to his boss's script writing.

As soon as the call ended, he printed out the email and gave it to his staff to register with the Screenwriters Guild.

...

At noon, after explaining the script registration matter, Gu Wei left the office directly and planned to go to school. The company was not far from Beijing Film Academy and could be reached in about ten minutes on foot.

The weather in the capital was very cold in January. As he walked out of the company gate, a chill came over him. Gu Wei tightened the scarf around his neck, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards the school gate.

When we arrived at the school gate, we saw a lot of cars parked outside the school. Some parents of students were helping to carry the luggage and put it in the trunk.

Only then did Gu Wei realize that it was time for winter vacation for all major universities.

"Director Gu."

"Director Gu, I am..."

After entering the school gate, people kept greeting him along the way. Gu Wei smiled and nodded in response.

"Daughter, who is this? He looks quite young and doesn't look like a teacher in your school."

Next to the BMW at the door, a middle-aged man with a big belly looked at his baby daughter and asked.

"Dad, this is a famous director in our school. We went to the cinema a while ago to watch the movie directed by Gu, the famous Hollywood blockbuster "The Day After Tomorrow". I told you about it several times, how come you forgot it again?"

Next to him, a young girl wearing a white down jacket complained to the middle-aged man.

"Look at my memory. I forgot about this. Is that Director Gu Wei? He looks about the same age as you."

The middle-aged man slapped his forehead and spoke quickly. Listening to his daughter's complaints, he smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Oh, Director Gu is still a student in the school's directing department, so of course he's young."

The girl then told the story of Gu Wei again, talking about Golden Bear Award-winning director, Hollywood big director and so on. Her voice was quite loud and attracted the attention of several parents of students nearby.

As the girl spoke, she stared at Gu Wei's departing back.

"That's amazing. Our family has been doing well in recent years and has opened several new mines. When we have the chance, we can invest in Director Gu's movie and let you play a role in it."

The middle-aged man looked at his daughter, understood what she was thinking, and started shouting.

When the other parents nearby heard this, they looked at him a few more times, wondering whether what he said was true or not.

Those who can send their children to film schools usually don't have a bad life, but they can't compare to the man whose family owns a mine.

"Okay, Dad, go back."

The girl looked at the eyes next to her, feeling a little shy, and hurriedly urged.

"Okay, get in the car, let's go straight home and ask your mom to make you something delicious. You've lost weight in school."

The middle-aged man saw his daughter's expression, chuckled, got into the car, told the driver to drive, and left the school directly.

"Become famous as early as possible," said Zhang Ailing, which is regarded as a classic by students of Beijing Film Academy, especially for those in the acting department.

Since the Beijing Film Academy does not prohibit students from going out to film, this also leads to not many students being on campus except during the start of school and final exams.

Gu Wei entered the school and was walking towards the director's office when he suddenly felt someone tap on his shoulder, followed by a familiar voice:
"Senior, how come you have time to come to school?"

When he turned around, it was Liu Yifei, looking at him with a smile, with two girls beside her.

Gu Wei took a look at Liu Yifei. She was wearing a pink down jacket and a beige scarf. She was holding two books in her hands. Her little face was rosy. She looked like a girl next door, pure and lovely.

"Come and see the teachers. Isn't school on holiday? Why don't you go home?"

"Hello, Director Gu, I'm Zhou Yang."

"Hello, Director Gu, I'm Jiang Yiyan."

As soon as Gu Wei finished speaking, the two people next to Liu Yifei greeted him.

"Hello."

Gu Wei smiled and nodded.

"Senior, our class is taking final exams, and we can only have a holiday after the exams."

Liu Yifei explained.

Compared to Liu Yifei, Zhou Yang and Jiang Yiyan were more nervous. They watched the two people chatting and did not dare to talk to them rashly.

"Senior, are you free later? I'd like to invite you to visit our class."

Liu Yifei said sweetly, her eyes full of anticipation.

Gu Wei thought for a moment and agreed.

"Then you go ahead and do your work, senior. We'll see you later."

Seeing that Gu Wei agreed, Liu Yifei smiled.

"Well, see you later."

After saying this, Gu Wei turned around and left, walking towards the office.

As they watched Gu Wei leave, the three of them chattered. "Xixi, you are amazing. You actually managed to invite Director Gu to our class."

Jiang Yiyan showed an expression of admiration on her face and turned into Liu Yifei's little fan girl.

"Let's go and tell the class the news."

Zhou Yang also said.

Afterwards, several people walked towards the classroom with brisk steps.

When I arrived at the directing department office, Director Xie Xiaojing and other teachers were there.

Gu Wei chatted with several teachers in the office. During the chat, Director Xie Xiaojing mentioned the idea of ​​studying for a master's degree to him. Gu Wei did not agree to it in person, but just said that he would go back and think about it.

After Gu Wei finished two cups of tea, he looked at the time, stood up, said something to a few teachers, and left the directing department office.

The final exams of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy are generally divided into cultural courses, professional courses and comprehensive qualities.

The professional course examination mainly includes tests in performance, body shape, lines and vocal music.

Gu Wei arrived at the right time and caught the acting department's lines test.

Gu Wei walked along the teaching building and came to the 02 undergraduate class of the Department of Performance.

"Director Gu Wei, welcome, welcome."

The teacher was very polite and did not call Gu Wei by his name.

"Teacher, you are too polite. I just came to take a look. I hope I didn't disturb your exam."

"No, no. It's their honor to invite Director Gu here. Maybe students in our class will have the opportunity to be in your play in the future."

The teacher took the opportunity to recommend the students in the next class.

"Dear students, please give a round of applause to welcome Director Gu."

Suddenly, there was warm applause in the class.

"Director Gu, awesome."

"Haha."

Another student shouted from below, causing others to laugh.

Ever since Liu Yifei brought back the news that Director Gu Wei was coming to the class, everyone else couldn't contain their excitement. Now after seeing him in person, their faces were even more filled with excitement.

"Hello, students."

"Hello, Director Gu."

Listening to the students' uniform answers, Gu Wei smiled helplessly.

"Teacher, you guys continue with the exam, I'll just watch from the side."

"Okay, Yawen, go and bring a stool over for Director Gu."

After a while, a stool was brought over and Gu Wei sat next to it and started watching.

"Zhou Yang, it's your turn now, let's start."

Today's exam was about lines. The teacher randomly picked out a line and asked the students in the class to perform it, not only the lines but also the body language.

The lively scene in the class attracted the attention of students from other classes next door. Soon, the classroom door was surrounded by people, not only students, but also substitute teachers from other departments.

Maybe because there were too many people watching, and Gu Wei was present, the students in the class were quite nervous and several of them stuttered in their lines.

Among them, Zhu Yawen was the most outrageous. He even forgot the words while speaking, which caused laughter from the surrounding students.

The teacher in charge looked embarrassed when he saw this situation, and shouted angrily:

"Next, Liu Yifei."

At present, she is the most famous among the 02 undergraduate acting class. She has played supporting roles in last year's "The Story of a Noble Family" and the movie "The Day After Tomorrow", as well as the already aired TV series "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" and the "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" which will be aired after the new year.

She had a high starting point and her career path was bright. She was also the student that the teacher valued the most.

As expected, Liu Yifei often shoots scenes in the crew and is used to big scenes. She was not nervous at all, spoke her lines fluently and her body language was also good.

"Clap clap clap."

After the performance, everyone gave applause. Gu Wei also applauded. When he saw Liu Yifei looking at him, he gave her a thumbs up.

Seeing this, Liu Yifei smiled innocently.

With Liu Yifei's demonstration, the others adjusted their mindsets and their nervousness gradually dissipated.

The exams were conducted one after another, and the teacher in charge felt relieved when he saw this situation.

After the exams, the 02 undergraduate class also welcomed the winter vacation.

The news that Gu Wei appeared in school and took the 02 undergraduate acting class exam was only reported in
The news came from within Beijing Film Academy and sparked a lot of discussion among students, but was not reported online by reporters.

The school leaders also knew about his current condition and chose to handle the matter in a low-key manner, not daring to publicize it.

That night, Gu Wei invited Liu Yifei and others to dinner. Also accompanying them were several classmates who she got along well with, namely Zhou Yang, Jiang Yiyan, Zhu Yawen and others.

At the dinner table, Gu Wei felt a little emotional when he saw that Liu Yifei now treated Jiang Yiyan as her bestie. The two had a good relationship during school, but no one expected that it would develop into that. They were almost on the verge of a fight.

After dinner, Jiang Yiyan slipped a note to Gu Wei while everyone was out.

After leaving the house, Gu Wei tore it up and threw it into the trash can without even looking at it. This person had a bad reputation and was called an "architect". Gu Wei didn't want to have anything to do with her.

"Goodbye, Director Gu."

At the entrance of the hotel, Gu Wei called a taxi and arranged for a few people to go back.

"Well, let's go back and be safe on the road."

Looking at the people getting on the bus, Gu Wei said.

"Senior, goodbye."

Gu Wei arrived at the gate of the community and got out of the car directly. Liu Yifei sat in the car, opened the window and said.

"Goodbye, Sissi."

Liu Yifei had a special driver to pick her up, so Gu Wei also got a ride back.
