The promotional event at this stop was a small-scaled interactive fan event in a large mall and the top floor of the mall was a large cinema.
The purpose of the event was to attract passers-by to support the box office of Life Reboot.
Since she was only going to attend the event as the director, the focus of the promotion was still on the lead actors, so Gu Weiwei did not dress herself up extravagantly.
She was wearing a high-waisted dress and a large windbreaker that perfectly covered her belly.
One hour before the event started, Yuan Meng and Jolin came to pick her and Fu Hanzheng up.
She looked simple and Fu Hanzheng started to disguise himself as his assistant.
When they were almost ready, Jolin urged them.
“Time to go.”
They rushed to the lounge of the mall where the event was held and found that the male lead, Nie Feng, Qiu Ling and several important supporting roles were already there.
“Director, it is a pity that you are not with us for the promotional event.”
“Although the box office is very high now, if you are here for the promotional event, the box office will definitely be much higher.”
Everyone felt sorry that Gu Weiwei did not attend the promotional event with them, but they only said those words.
Many of the audience were here because of her reputation.
Therefore, if she did not attend the promotional event, the box office would be greatly affected.
Hearing the words, Jolin smiled and tried to smooth things over.
“If the director really attends the promotion, the fans and media will focus on her, not you. You are the ones in the limelight now, aren’t you satisfied?”
She was the Movie Queen who was worth tens of billions of yuan. As long as she showed up, she would be the center of attention, so his explanation was totally understandable.
Although the promotional event had been very difficult these days, the excellent production of the movie and the strict requirements of the director during the filming period presented a very high-level work.
Recently, all of them have become very popular.
The director’s failure to attend the promotional event would affect the box office, but what Jolin said was reasonable. If she participated, she would definitely exceed all of them.
Qiu Ling sized up Gu Weiwei who had gained some weight and said in astonishment, “Director Xiao Mu has been living a very peaceful life these days, you have gained so much weight.”
Female artists tended to be strict about their figures and appearances. She was not participating in the promotional event or paying attention to her image, so she wasn’t determined to become the following Movie Queen.
But with her looks and acting skills, she should have a bright future in this industry.
Gu Weiwei smiled. “Yes, I have been eating a lot these days.”
She used to eat three meals a day and now she eats five meals a day. She was definitely fat.
They talked for a few minutes in the lounge and Jolin came to inform them that it was time to go on stage.
The male and female supporting roles were the first ones to leave, followed by Nie Feng and Qiu Ling, and finally Gu Weiwei.
The two leading roles had already made the audience excited, but when she appeared, everyone screamed.
After a brief introduction, it was time to interact with the fans and media.
However, Gu Weiwei became the focus of attention in this round where the male and female lead were supposed to play.
“Weiwei, are you planning to quit being a director and quit acting in movies?”
Gu Weiwei smiled. “Not necessarily. If I am interested, I might star in a role.”
But judging from her current situation, she would not be able to star in or direct movies for the next three years.
