Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

"Have you arrived in Kekexili?"

"Just arrived."

"Do you have any altitude sickness? Do you feel uncomfortable in your heart? Do you feel nauseous? Do you feel short of breath?"

"Haha, don't worry, everything is normal. You found a husband with a very healthy body."

"Hehe..."

Shu Chang called, as always, with countless concerns for Nie Wei. If Nie Wei hadn't stopped her, I'm afraid this girl would have personally run to Kekexili to accompany him to suffer.

It would be a lie to say that he was not moved. What else could he ask for to have such a considerate girlfriend.

While they were chatting, Lu Chuan came to Nie Wei's room again and brought him a few washbasins. Seeing that Nie Wei was talking on the phone, he didn't say anything.

"Director Lu came to see me. I'll call you later in the evening. Eat well. You'll be cuter when you're a little fatter."

"Did your girlfriend call you?" After Nie Wei hung up the phone, Lu Chuan beside him immediately asked with a gossipy look on his face.

"Haha." Nie Wei smiled, neither admitting nor denying.

Seeing Nie Wei's expression, Lu Chuan knew that this popular young man must have a girlfriend, but judging from his attitude, he obviously wouldn't tell him.

But what surprised him was that Nie Wei was a newcomer that Huayi was promoting. Logically, for an idol-type artist like Nie Wei, the company would want to put him in a nuclear-proof shelter to protect him. How could they allow him to fall in love? But if it was about a secret relationship, Nie Wei's attitude didn't seem like it.

After thinking about it, there was only one reason, that is, the company knew about it and was indulging it.

As soon as this idea appeared in Lu Chuan's mind, he couldn't help but shudder. How much did Nie Wei care about his emotions? Thinking about it, the company had been circulated a while ago that his movie was postponed because of Nie Wei. Now it seems that this is really possible.

For a moment, Lu Chuan felt that his mind became complicated when facing Nie Wei. There was admiration for a good actor, but also a little complaint, and more of a fear. Nie Wei, who was sitting opposite him, brought him invisible pressure at the moment, fearing that he would interfere in his movie. The psychological shadow brought to him by Jiang Wen in the previous "Looking for the Gun" made him quite resistant to this kind of actor who could suppress the director.

Seeing Lu Chuan suddenly showing vigilance, Nie Wei was a little confused, but he didn't go into it.

"This is a wash basin. I've brought you two extra ones. When you go to the well to get water, get one and put it in the room. Otherwise, if you get up in the morning and go directly to get water from the well, the water is too cold and will freeze your hands and make it difficult to wash your face."

"Also, there is a restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. There are not many good restaurants in this town. The restaurant of this hotel is pretty good and you can enjoy the local specialties. Of course, I suggest you buy more instant noodles. After all, you will get tired of eating meat all day."

Lu Chuan left after giving instructions like an old woman. Nie Wei looked at the time and saw that it was almost time for dinner, so he washed up casually and then walked to Luo Kai's door and knocked.

"Who is it?" A weak response came from inside.

"Nie Wei."

"Come in quickly. The door is not locked." Luo Kai responded with all his strength when he heard that it was Nie Wei.

Nie Wei opened the door and walked into the room. What he saw was Luo Kai lying weakly on the bed, with a transparent mask covering his mouth. It was connected to a simple oxygen machine next to the bed. The indicator light of the machine was still on, and it was obviously still producing oxygen.

"Sit down." For the first time, Luo Kai did not get up enthusiastically to greet Nie Wei. He was really powerless now.

At this moment, he was completely aware of the severity of altitude sickness. He felt dizzy and swollen. It felt like it took ten times more effort to breathe than in Kyoto. Moreover, it was the kind of feeling that he couldn't breathe well no matter how hard he tried. It seemed that he had exhausted his strength and could never satisfy his lungs. If it weren't for the oxygen machine provided by Lu Chuan, he felt that he might not even survive tomorrow.

"Brother Kai, you should exercise your body." Seeing Luo Kai's half-dead appearance, Nie Wei smiled and teased.

"Nie Wei, don't laugh at me. What's the matter with you looking for me?" Luo Kai smiled bitterly and took off the mask and asked.

"It's okay. I just want to go downstairs with you two to have a meal. But I see that you are in such a state that you probably can't eat, right?" Nie Wei asked with a smile.

"I can't eat. I have no appetite at all." Luo Kai also shook his head with a bitter smile. Even if his stomach was empty, he still didn't want to eat at all. He was afraid that he would vomit it out as soon as he ate it. That would feel too uncomfortable.

"Okay, I'll bring some back to you and your daughter after I finish eating." Nie Wei didn't go to Luo Yuan again. Looking at Luo Kai's state, he knew that his daughter was not much better.

With Luo Kai's thanks, Nie Wei left the room and went straight to the restaurant downstairs.

The hotel looked quite shabby, but the space was very large, especially the restaurant on the first floor. Nie Wei opened the door and felt that it was quite bright in front of him. There were 20 tables and more than enough space. Nie Wei also saw a small store on the side. There were not many things, so there was only a small cabinet. At first glance, there were mostly ham sausages, instant noodles and the like.

"Eat?" At this moment, a girl came out from the inner kitchen. It was Dawa whom Nie Wei had met at the beginning. However, she was not carrying a gun at this time. Instead, she was holding a rice spoon. When she saw Nie Wei, she immediately asked.

Nie Wei nodded and asked, "Is there a menu?"

"No." Dawa shook her head, pointed to the words on a wall, and said, "We can only make the dishes listed there."

Following the direction of Dawa's finger, Nie Wei looked over and smiled bitterly. No wonder there was no menu. It turned out that even if the rice and steamed buns were included, the dishes in this restaurant were not enough to fit on two hands. It would take too long to type out a piece of A4 paper.

"Then let's have some hand-pulled mutton and fried eggs with tomatoes. These two dishes will do. I'll have a big bowl of rice for the staple food." Nie Wei ordered.

"Would you like some drinks?"

"No thanks."

After writing down the dishes Nie Wei ordered, Dawa returned to the kitchen, leaving Nie Wei alone waiting in such an empty restaurant. Fortunately, Nie Wei still had his mobile phone with him, so he could text with Shu Chang to kill time.

Ten minutes later, the door of the restaurant was opened again, and Nie Wei saw Lu Chuan walk in.

"I'm waiting alone. You don't have to pay after you finish eating. It will be charged to the crew. In addition, I will take you to the nearby county town on the weekend. There are more varieties of food there." Lu Chuan has figured it out after so much effort. If she guards against Nie Wei, she will lose the reputation. It is better to serve this master well so that it will be easier to talk to him in the future.

"It's quite strenuous to go to the county town from here, right?" Nie Wei asked.

"It's okay. It's only about an hour for 70 or 80 miles. It's just that there are no good roads along the way, so it's a bit painful. In fact, if this town was not the closest to Kekexili, we would have moved to the county town a long time ago. The environment is much better than here." Lu Chuan said. Even though he had lived there for several months, Lu Chuan was not used to the life here. It was too hard.

Nie Wei nodded. This town was indeed a bit backward, but Nie Wei did not have too high expectations for the environment of the county town.

"Don't sit there stupidly. Your position is not good. Let's go to that table." As he spoke, Lu Chuan suddenly pulled Nie Wei up and walked to another table to sit down.

"What's wrong? The table in this restaurant is also about Feng Shui?" Nie Wei, who was pulled over by Lu Chuan, laughed.

"I don't know about Feng Shui, but I know that this table is the best place to watch TV. Wait for me to ask Dawa to turn on the TV for us." Lu Chuan replied with a smile: "This is the only 29-inch color TV in our hotel. Usually, Xiao Wang and I have to sit in the restaurant to order some small dishes, and then wait until they close."

"Isn't there a TV in the bedroom?" Nie Wei asked puzzled.

"The bedroom is all black and white, and there are only a few channels, and they are so small, how can this guy be satisfied with it." Lu Chuan explained.

After listening, Nie Wei smiled playfully, obviously seeing the shrewdness of the owner of this hotel. It stands to reason that the closed-circuit line of the TV can be separated. If one is turned on, the TVs at home can also borrow light, but the owner did not do so. He just connected the closed-circuit line of the restaurant, making this large color TV the only "seedling" that can watch all channels.

If you want to watch TV in the restaurant, you have to order something, just like Lu Chuan. The side dishes they order every day are undoubtedly a kind of "extra consumption", and the money naturally flows into the pocket of the shrewd boss.

Soon, Dawa came out and turned on the TV, and handed the remote control to Nie Wei.

"Hey, Dawa, you are not tempted, but I asked you to turn on the TV, why did you give the remote control to Nie Wei." Lu Chuan joked.

"Shut up." Dawa rolled his eyes at Lu Chuan, then twisted his waist and went back to the kitchen.

"Old Lu, I think you must not joke about this. I'm okay. At most, I will hate you in my heart. Miss Dawa is a gunman. If you are really angry, be careful that she will shoot you at night. You will cry happily then." Nie Wei looked at Lu Chuan who was rolled his eyes, and immediately laughed.

Lu Chuan shivered when she heard this, not because she was afraid of being shot by Dawa, but because of Nie Wei's resentment. She always felt that Nie Wei's words were a bit insinuating.

Perhaps because she was afraid that Nie Wei would really remember her, Lu Chuan quickly changed the subject and talked about the local customs and people around.

As the two chatted and laughed, the dishes were served on the table one by one. To Nie Wei's surprise, the hand-held mutton was a whole porcelain bowl, and the fried eggs and persimmons were also served in a large bowl. Imagine the low price, this is definitely a meal with a very high cost performance.

"If this dish is placed in our Kyoto, it will increase by at least five times." Nie Wei said with a slightly exaggerated metaphor.

"It's not just about the price. The sheep are all raised by their family, and they are killed and sold on the same day. The tomatoes and eggs are also grown by them. The quality of the ingredients is hard to find in small restaurants in Kyoto."

"Not necessarily. I know a Mongolian hot pot restaurant. I'll take you there when I return to Kyoto."

"Then I'll remember it. You will be forgotten by then."

The two of them were chatting happily. Two more people came to the restaurant one after another. Lu Chuan pulled them over to introduce them to Nie Wei. They were all staff members of the crew and belonged to the advance team. They had been accompanying Lu Chuan to wait for the Tibetan antelopes for the past few months. In Lu Chuan's words, these two people were the heroes of this movie.

One of the photographers was called Cao Yang, and the other big man who worked hard was called Liu Meng.

At first, the two were a little embarrassed to sit at the same table with Nie Wei, but later they were persuaded by Nie Wei and Lu Chuan, so they sat together and chatted for a while. They found that Nie Wei didn't have any celebrity airs, so they gradually opened up the topic.

"Dawa, a box of beer." Lu Chuan might have been having a good time chatting, so he ordered another box of beer. Just when Dawa was moving a box of beer to Nie Wei, the door of the restaurant was opened again.

This time, it wasn't just one or two people who came in, but a whole group of more than ten people.

And everyone had a gun on their backs, looking exhausted. Nie Wei knew without Lu Chuan's introduction that this was the patrol team that had been working here.

"Cidan, how did you get today?" As expected, Lu Chuan greeted them immediately after seeing them.

"Very good, no discovery." Ci Dan replied. For the patrol team members, not seeing the Tibetan antelope being killed and not finding poachers was a happy day.

After chatting for a few more words, Lu Chuan turned around.

"Cidan, the deputy captain of the Hoh Xil Patrol Team, don't look at his tattered clothes, he is also a regular section-level figure, a person who eats the emperor's food." Lu Chuan introduced.

"Oh, the patrol team is not organized voluntarily now?"

"It was not organized a few years ago. Since Mr. Zhabaduojie died, the country has paid more attention to this aspect. The patrol teams are now organized by the state. In fact, they are just given a title, and at most some equipment and subsidies. Didn't you see the broken jeep we drove when we came here? That was the car of Tseden's patrol team. It has been used for many years. Aren't they too poor to buy a new car?"

"It will be better in the future." Nie Wei sighed and said.

"I hope so." Lu Chuan also sighed, but looking at his dead look, he said hope with his mouth, but I'm afraid he didn't have any hope in his heart.

Nie Wei naturally wouldn't explain the future to Lu Chuan clearly. After all, this matter couldn't be explained clearly. Maybe Lu Chuan would think he was mentally ill.

Just as everyone was drinking beer and eating meat, a familiar music suddenly came from the TV. Nie Wei looked up and found that it was Huaxia TV replaying "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" in which he played.

"Nie Wei, you played Duan Yu really well. I've seen it all. I have to give you a thumbs up." Lu Chuan obviously noticed the content on TV and immediately gave Nie Wei a thumbs up.

However, his words attracted the attention of the table of Ci Dan nearby. After listening to Lu Chuan's words, several men looked at the TV and then looked at Nie Wei, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on their faces.

"It seems that he really played Duan Yu."

"Yes, it must be right. Didn't Lu Chuan say it? How could it be false!"

"Let's go and ask." At that moment, a man who was not afraid of strangers walked to Nie Wei's side and asked Nie Wei: "Brother, are you the one who played Duan Yu on TV?"

Nie Wei was stunned by the question, but fortunately he reacted quickly and quickly answered: "Yes."

"Great, brothers, this buddy is the one who played Duan Yu." Upon hearing Nie Wei's admission, the man immediately shouted excitedly, and in the next scene, Nie Wei's table was surrounded by a group of people.
