China Entertainment's whatever you want
Chapter 835 Growing Up and Taohuawu
In the entertainment industry, first-tier stars are connected to first-tier resources, and second-tier stars are connected to second-tier resources.
The TV series produced by [Noon Sunshine] are undoubtedly the best in the industry, at least in the field of TV series.
It’s just that Noon already has some actors who I often work with, such as Wang Kai and Jin Dong, and it’s difficult for outsiders to get into their circle.
This is the third time that Gu Wei has collaborated with Noon Sunshine. The first two were the phenomenal costume dramas Nirvana in Fire and The Story of Minglan.
However, those two films were already mega-productions when they were being prepared, and their goal was to become the best drama of the year.
Compared to this, the investment and production of [Beginning] is somewhat unqualified, only the plot is more exciting and innovative.
Gu Wei's joining actually surprised many people, including Hou Hongliang who first invited him.
“.In the second half of the year, Director Li Xue is going to produce an urban-themed comedy romance drama, based on Bao Jingjing’s novel My Greatest Bear, called Welcome.
The male lead is a hotel doorman and the female lead is a flight attendant."
After three rounds of drinks, Hou Hongliang talked to Gu Wei about the new drama that [Noon Sunshine] was preparing, of course, with the hope that Gu Wei could take on the male lead.
"For the female lead, we have tentatively decided on Bai Baihe. You have worked together before on Monster Hunt, so you should be familiar with each other."
“It’s true that I’m quite familiar with her, but I definitely won’t be available in the second half of the year.
The company has already decided on a historical drama, and will then start filming that Hollywood action movie." Gu Wei refused without any hesitation.
"I see~ That's a bit of a pity.
Before I came here, Director Li Xue specifically told me to invite you to act in this drama."
Gu Wei smiled and said, "Mr. Hou has so many good projects, there will definitely be opportunities for cooperation again in the future."
At the main table of the wrap-up banquet, Gu Wei was drinking and chatting with Hou Hongliang, Sun Molong and others. Zhao Jinmai was sitting next to him and didn't say much.
Although she is an adult, most of the people present treat her as a child and drink fruit juice drinks.
"Brother, are you going to join the crew again after we finish filming this play?"
Gu Wei was chatting with Hou Hongliang just now, and Zhao Jinmai also heard some of it.
She blinked her big eyes and whispered in Gu Wei's ear.
“Yes, there is a play, but I am not in a hurry to join the crew.
I have a movie coming out at the end of this month, and Joy of Life 2 will also be available online early next month.
I will be promoting these two dramas in the near future."
Gu Wei took a bite of food and ate while talking.
"And you?
[Beginning] After filming, we have to go back to school, right? "
"What class? You forgot. It's summer vacation now. School is closed."
Gu Wei suddenly realized and smiled sheepishly, "It's been several years since I graduated, and I'm no longer sensitive to winter and summer vacations.
So what are your plans for the future?"
“Nothing planned. I’m not as busy as you are at work.
There is only one movie "Life of Pi 2" to be filmed in the second half of the year, but it will not start until September.
You can go home and rest for the next two months, and then do whatever you want." Zhao Jinmai said with a smile.
"Oh? So what are you going to do?
You can't just lie at home all the time, right?"
Zhao Jinmai held one end of the chopsticks in her mouth, rolled her eyes, and then smiled:
"I'm going to the cinema to watch your movie [Life Events] first, and then I'll watch [Joy of Life 2]."
"Hahaha, thank you then!
I will treat our Mai Mai to a big dinner when we return to the capital!"
Zhao Jinmai smiled and held out her little finger: "Then it's settled, pinky promise!"
Gu Wei put down his chopsticks and stretched out his little finger to join hers.
“.Don’t lie for a hundred years. Anyone who lies is a puppy!
Ha ha"
After interacting with Mai Mai for a few words, Gu Wei started drinking with Hou Hongliang and others and chatting about work.
Zhao Jinmai was quietly eating and drinking juice, listening to Gu Wei and others talking.
But she would turn her head to look at Gu Wei beside her every few seconds, and her attention was basically on him.
There is no doubt that Zhao Jinmai likes Gu Wei.
A young girl in love will naturally develop a liking for the best opposite sex around her.
Among all the men she came into contact with during her growing years, Gu Wei's brilliance was incomparable.
When Zhao Jinmai was still a middle school student, Gu Wei had already become a top idol pursued by countless boys and girls, and she was also one of his fans.
Later, when the two of them worked together on a movie, the combination of the lofty and somewhat unreal idol and the handsome and warm older brother beside her naturally left a deep impression in her heart.
She was very happy that this was her second time working with Gu Wei on "The Beginning" because in this script they were finally not siblings but lovers.
This photoshoot was indeed an unforgettable memory for her. The only pity was that she knew that in Gu Wei's heart she was still the little sister who had not grown up.
'Just wait, I'm only 19 this year, there's still a lot of time in the future.
Sooner or later, I will change your impression of me.'
Zhao Jinmai turned her head and stared at Gu Wei's handsome profile, thinking silently in her heart.
[Beginning] After the filming, Gu Wei did not return to Beijing, but flew from Xiamen to Hainan.
His destination was Linwu Village, a coastal village in Puqian Town, Wenchang City, Hainan Province, to participate in the recording of "Fifty Kilometers Taohuawu Season 2".
[Fifty Kilometers Peach Blossom Wood] This variety show was originally designed by Gu Wei. He set the general framework of the program at that time, and the specific content was filled in by the variety show production team.
As early as last year, the team of [Wajijiwa] invited 15 artists from the domestic entertainment industry to build an ideal community integrating art, humanities and technology in a village 50 kilometers away from the city, and named it Taohuawu.
Everyone lives together in this community for 21 days, and everything that happens during that time becomes the material for the variety show.
The first season of [Fifty Kilometers Peach Blossom Village] was very successful and received very good response after it was broadcast on Tencent Video.
Many famous scenes in the variety show have been widely circulated on the Internet, and participants such as Meng Ziyi, Zhou Ye, and Guo Qilin have also won the favor of many audiences through this variety show.
The one who benefited the most was undoubtedly Meng Ziyi.
When she was recording "Flowers in Youth Season 3", she won the title of "Sister Meng" with her silly beauty character and became famous in a small circle.
When it came to "Fifty Kilometers Taohuawu", her performance remained the same, with her mouth always running in front and her brain following behind, but it was precisely because of this performance that she won the love of many audiences.
The reason why Gu Wei participated in "Taohuawu" this time was, firstly, because he had promised Long Danni that he would participate in the show in the first half of the year, and secondly, to increase the popularity of the two film and television dramas that were about to be released.
The program crew's car drove down the wide road and into a small island in the countryside, and the surrounding scenery became more and more beautiful.
Gu Wei, who was sitting in the back seat with the car window open, seemed to feel the salty taste of the sea breeze.
The full name of [Taohuawu Season 2] is [50 kilometers Taohuawu - Seaside], and the recording location was chosen in a very beautiful small village in Hainan, close to the sea.
In the big villa of Taohuawu, after finishing breakfast, everyone was informed by the director team that a mysterious guest would come to Taohuawu soon.
You can choose a few people to pick him up.
“Mysterious guest, who will come?
Do you know?" Wu Dajing, the second season director, asked the question first.
All shook their heads.
"No matter who it is, since he comes so late, he has to perform a show at the party!" Meng Ziyi thought for a moment and blurted out.
The second season of Taohuawu has just been recorded. Except for the veterans from the first season, such as Meng Ziyi, Guo Qilin, Wang Sulong, and Li Xueqin, the others are still in the stage of just getting to know each other. In order to make everyone integrate into the group faster, Song Dandan, the "head of the family" in the variety show, proposed to hold a party and asked everyone to prepare programs.
Now everyone is worried about what show to prepare.
"We are asked to prepare the program as soon as we get here. So we have to start working, right?" Guo Qilin said with a smile.
"How can it be considered work? Performing shows is a good thing. It's a good opportunity to show your talents!" Meng Ziyi retorted.
"Then Sister Meng, what performance are you going to perform?" Wang Surong turned around and asked.
“Um, I haven’t thought about it yet.
If it doesn't work, Brother Long, can we sing a song together?" Meng Ziyi giggled and thought of Wang Sulong.
"I think it's okay, Brother Long, you can take Sister Meng with you," Guo Qilin urged from the side, and the others also watched the fun with a smile.
The soul singer Meng Ziyi's name has long been known on the Internet because of variety shows, and several veterans of the first season also know her level.
Wang Sulong's brain was spinning rapidly: "Shan Ma has already chosen me to be the host of the party, and our 650 has also prepared a chorus song [Meteor Shower]. I am really too busy!
This way, Sister Meng, you can choose any song you like from my songs and sing it at will. I won’t charge you a penny for the copyright!”
Wang Sulong is a professional singer who has created many popular songs.
His songs are often covered by others, and he receives considerable copyright fees every year, earning him the nickname "The Little Prince of Copyright."
Meng Ziyi curled her lips, knowing that Wang Sulong was trying to shirk responsibility: "Thank you."
"Don't talk about the show for now. The new guest will be here soon. Who will go to meet him?" Song Dandan asked.
"Oh my gosh! I want to see who will come?" Meng Ziyi raised his hand actively.
"I'll go with Sister Meng too. I can help carry the bag and stuff." Guo Qilin said.
After the two of them finished talking, Li Xueqin and Wang Hedi, who were sitting opposite them, also offered to go and pick someone up.
"Okay, then it's you four~" Song Dandan made the decision.
After a while, Meng Ziyi and three others came out of the villa and walked out along the path.
"Sister Meng, how about we perform a show together?"
Wang Hedi approached Meng Ziyi and took the initiative to propose the idea of collaborating with her on a show.
Meng Ziyi turned around and looked at him: "What can you do?"
Wang Hedi was stumped by her question. After thinking for a few seconds, he said unconfidently, "I can sing."
“But I remember your singing was pretty average.”
Meng Ziyi's words without any thought stunned Wang Hedi. He thought to himself: No matter how ordinary I am, I am still much better than you.
"Who said that?
I sang the interlude in Ever Night 2! "
Wang Hedi debuted in 18. He was highly regarded by the company because of his excellent appearance. He has filmed several TV series so far, and "Ever Night 2" broadcasted last year is one of them.
It’s a pity that it didn’t cause any splash after it was broadcast.
"Okay, let's discuss it when we get back~"
Meng Ziyi did not agree directly. She and Wang Hedi had just met and were not very familiar with each other. She still needed to consider whether to perform on the show together.
Wang Hedi smiled and nodded.
In fact, he had liked Meng Ziyi long before he participated in this variety show, and he always found opportunities to talk to her in Taohuawu these two days.
He has watched many TV series starring Meng Ziyi, but his favorite is the one she starred in, "Eastern Palace".
The "Qu Xiaofeng" played by Meng Ziyi is so beautiful and extremely pitiful.
The four of them walked and talked, and soon arrived at the place where the program crew arranged to pick them up.
I saw a silver-white BAIC Alpha driving over. This brand is also one of the program sponsors of Taohuawu.
The car stopped, the back door opened, and a tall figure wearing sunglasses came out of the car.
After seeing who got off the car, the four people who came to pick them up shouted in surprise.
Meng Ziyi held her hands in front of her chest, her beautiful eyes wide open, an expression of uncontrollable surprise on her face, and trotted over.
"Brother Wei, why are you here?"
Fortunately, Meng Ziyi had some rationality and did not pounce on him directly.
Gu Wei didn't care too much. When he saw Sister Meng rushing towards him, he smiled and gave her a gentle hug.
"I came here to participate in Taohuawu. Are you surprised?"
"Surprise, what a surprise!"
After hugging Meng Ziyi, Gu Wei hugged Guo Qilin again.
"Brother, welcome to become a member of Taohuawu. I'll prepare the bed for you!" Guo Qilin is good at speaking in a fancy way.
"Sizhe has gained weight recently?" Gu Wei directly started to advertise his own drama.
Guo Qilin understood immediately: "You've gained some weight, brother, have you just returned from Northern Qi?"
"I am returning to Beijing secretly, don't tell anyone else yet"
They both laughed after they finished speaking.
Meng Ziyi seemed to understand what was being said, and looked at Gu Wei and then at Guo Qilin, not knowing what the two were talking about.
"Oh! I see. You two are talking about Joy of Life, right?"
Gu Wei smiled but said nothing. Guo Qilin gave him a thumbs up and said, "Sister Meng, you are so smart. What I told Brother Wei was [Joy of Life 2].
It will be broadcast on Tencent Video soon, please support us!"
Meng Ziyi seemed to react slowly, but her slowness was just right.
He stupidly said the title of the drama "Joy of Life 2" and cooperated with Guo Qilin to promote the drama again.
"Hello, Teacher Gu Wei!
I am Li Xueqin. "
Li Xueqin was also a little excited when she saw Gu Wei. She was just a simple fan towards her idol.
Gu Wei smiled and shook hands with her.
"Hello, I've seen your talk show, you're a talented girl from Peking University~"
"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it
Teacher Gu Wei, can you please sign an autograph for me later? It would be even more perfect if we could take a photo together!"
"That's easy." Gu Wei agreed with a smile.
"Hello, Brother Wei, I am the new actor Wang Hedi."
Different from Li Xueqin who was as excited as a fan meeting her idol, Wang Hedi was also very surprised when he saw Gu Wei just now, and then he became reserved.
Gu Wei's status and fame are so huge that he is at the top of the male star ladder. All the younger male artists in the domestic entertainment industry envy Gu Wei and want to be like him.
"Hello, you made your debut in Meteor Garden, Daoming Si, you're a very handsome guy!"
Gu Wei said in the tone of a senior.
“It’s far inferior to you.
I watched the TV series "Gu Jian Qi Tan" which was filmed when Wei Ge debuted. It was very popular at that time. All my classmates and friends were watching it." (End of this chapter)
