In the entertainment industry, first-tier stars connect with first-tier resources, and second-tier stars connect with second-tier resources.
The TV series produced by [Noon Sun] are undoubtedly the best in the industry, at least in the field of TV series.
It's just that there are some actors who often collaborate with Noon, such as Wang Kai and Jin Dong, so it is difficult for outsiders to enter 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 "Knowledge".
However, those two films were super big productions when they were being prepared, and their goal was to be the drama king of the year.
In comparison, the investment and production of "The Beginning" is somewhat inadequate. Only the plot is more exciting and innovative.
Gu Wei's joining actually exceeded the expectations of many people, including Hou Hongliang, who was the first to invite him.
".In the second half of the year, Director Li Xue will launch an urban-themed comedy-romance drama, adapted from Bao Jingjing's novel "My Unparalleled Heroic Bear", called "Welcome".
The male protagonist is a hotel doorman and the female protagonist is a stewardess.”
After drinking for three rounds, Hou Hongliang chatted with Gu Wei about the new drama "Noon Sunshine" was preparing. The purpose of course was to hope that Gu Wei could take over the leading role.
"As for the heroine, we have initially chosen Bai Lily. You have worked together on "Monster Hunt" before, so you should be familiar with her."
"It's really familiar, but I definitely won't be available in the second half of the year.
The company has already decided on a drama with a historical theme, and then they will shoot the Hollywood action movie." Gu Wei refused without any hesitation.
"That's it~ That's a pity.
Before coming here, Director Li Xue specifically asked me to invite you to act in this play."
Gu Wei smiled and said: "Mr. Hou has so many good projects, there will definitely be opportunities to cooperate again in the future"
At the main table of the final banquet, Gu Wei was drinking and chatting with Hou Hongliang, Sun Molong and others. Zhao Jinmai sat next to him and didn't talk much.
Although she is an adult, most of the people sitting here regard her as a child and drink fruit drinks.
"Brother, after we finish filming this scene, are you going to join the team again?"
Gu Wei was chatting with Hou Hongliang just now, and Zhao Jinmai also heard a little bit.
She blinked her big eyes and whispered in Gu Wei's ear.
“I have a drama, but I’m not in a hurry to join the cast.
I have a movie to be released at the end of the month, and "Celebrating the Year 2" will also be available online at the beginning of next month.
Recently, I will be doing a lot of promotion for these two dramas.”
Gu Wei took a mouthful of food and said while eating.
"What about you?
【Start】After filming, you have to go back to school, right? ”
"What class are you taking? Brother, you forgot. It's summer now and the school is already on vacation."
Gu Wei suddenly understood and smiled sheepishly: "It has been several years since I graduated and I am no longer sensitive to winter and summer vacations.
So what are your plans next? ”
"There are no arrangements. Unlike you, I am not so busy at work.
There is only one film [Pi 2] to be filmed in the second half of the year, but it won’t start shooting until September.
After two months, you can go home and rest for a while, and then do whatever you want." Zhao Jinmai said with a smile.
"Oh? What are you going to do?
You can't just lie down at home all the time, right? ”
Zhao Jinmai held one end of the chopsticks in his mouth, rolled his eyes, and then smiled:
“I will go to the cinema to watch your movie [Life Events] first, and then I will watch [Celebrating Years 2].”
"Hahaha, then I thank you!
When I get back to the capital, I’ll treat our Mai Mai to a big dinner! ”
Zhao Jinmai smiled and stretched out his little finger: "Then it's settled, pull the hook!"
Gu Wei put down his chopsticks and stretched out his little finger to join her.
".You are not allowed to cheat for a hundred years. Anyone who cheats is a puppy!
Haha”
After interacting with Mai Mai for a few words, Gu Wei started drinking with Hou Hongliang and others and chatting about work matters.
Zhao Jinmai was quietly eating and drinking juice on the side, listening to the talk of Gu Wei and others.
But every few seconds, she would turn her head to look at Gu Wei beside her, and her attention was basically focused on him.
Zhao Jinmai undoubtedly liked Gu Wei.
A girl in Huaichun will naturally have a good impression of the best person of the opposite sex around her.
In the years when she was growing up, among the men she came into contact with, Gu Wei's brilliance was unparalleled.
When Zhao Jinmai was still a middle school student, Gu Wei had become a top idol pursued by countless boys and girls, and she was also considered one of his fans.
Later, when the two worked together to shoot a movie, the aloof and somewhat illusory idol overlapped with the handsome and warm big brother beside her, which naturally left a deep mark on her heart.
Originally, she was very, very happy to work with Gu Wei for the second time in "The Beginning" because in this script, the two of them were finally not brothers and sisters but lovers.
This filming 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, and there will still be a long time to come.
Sooner or later you will change your impression of me.’
Zhao Jinmai, who turned to stare at Gu Wei's handsome profile, thought silently in his heart.
[The Beginning] After filming, Gu Wei did not return to the capital, but flew from Xiamen to Hainan.
His destination is Linwu Village, a coastal village in Puqian Town, Wenchang City, Hainan, to participate in the recording of "Fifty Kilometers Taohuawu Season 2".
[Fifty Kilometers Taohuawu] This variety show was the first one that Gu Wei took the lead in designing. He decided on the outline of the show at that time, and the specific content was filled in by the variety show's production team.
As early as last year, the team of [Wow] invited 15 artists from domestic entertainment to build an ideal community integrating art, humanities, and technology in a countryside 50 kilometers away from the city, and named it Taohuawu.
Everyone lives together in this community for 21 days, and everything that happens during this period is the material of the variety show.
The first season of [Fifty Kilometers Taohuawu] was very successful and received a very good response after it was broadcast on Tengxun Video.
Many famous scenes in the variety show have been widely circulated on the Internet, and participants such as Meng Ziyi, Zhou Ming, and Guo Qilin have also won the favor of many viewers through this variety show.
Among them, the one who reaped the most dividends was undoubtedly Meng Ziyi.
When she was recording "Flower Flower Season 3", she won the title of "Sister Meng" by relying on her silly and beautiful persona, and she made a small appearance in the industry.
When it came to "Fifty Kilometers Taohuawu", her performance was still the same. Her mouth was always running in front and her brain was chasing behind. But it was precisely because of this performance that she was liked by many viewers.
Gu Wei attended [Taohuawu] this time, firstly because he promised Long Danni to participate in it in the first half of the year, and secondly, to increase the popularity of the two upcoming film and television dramas.
The program crew's car descended from the wide road and entered the rural island, and the surrounding scenery became more and more beautiful.
Gu Wei, who was sitting in the back seat and opened the window, seemed to feel the salty smell of the sea breeze.
The full name of "Taohuawu Season 2" is "Fifty Kilometers Taohuawu - Seaside". The recording location was chosen to be in a very beautiful small village in Hainan, close to the sea.
In the large villa in Taohuawu, everyone after breakfast was informed by the director team that a mysterious guest would come to Taohuawu soon.
Everyone can choose a few people to pick him up.
"Mysterious guest, who will come?
Does anyone know? "Wu Dajing, as the director of the second season, first raised the question.
Everyone shook their heads.
"No matter who it is, he came so late, so he must perform a show at the party!" Mencius blurted out after thinking about it.
[Taohuawu] The second season has just been recorded not long ago. Except for the old men Meng Ziyi, Guo Qilin, Wang Sulong, Li Xueqin and others from the first season, the others are still at a stage where they have just met and become familiar with each other. In order to help everyone integrate into the group more quickly, Song Dandan, the "parent" in the variety show, proposed holding a gala and asked everyone to prepare a program.
Now everyone is worrying about what program to prepare.
"I asked you to prepare the program as soon as you arrived, and you have to work when you arrive, right?" Guo Qilin said with a smile next to him.
"How can it be considered work? Performing shows is a good thing. This is a good opportunity to show off your talents!" Meng Ziyi retorted.
"Sister Meng, what show are you planning to perform?" Wang Sulong turned around and asked.
"Well, I haven't thought about it yet.
If that doesn't work, Brother Cong, can we sing a song together? "Mencius laughed happily and came up with the idea of Wang Sulong.
"I think it's okay, Brother Cong, you can take Sister Meng with you," Guo Qilin encouraged at the side, and the others also laughed and watched the fun.
Meng Ziyi's reputation as a soul singer has long been on the Internet because of variety shows, and several seniors in the first season also know what level she is.
Wang Sulong's brain was spinning rapidly: "Single Mom has decided that I will be the host of the party, and our 650 has also prepared a chorus song [Meteor Shower]. I am really too busy!
In this way, Sister Meng, you can choose one of my songs that you like and sing it as you like, and I won’t charge a penny in copyright fees! ”
Wang Sulong is a professional singer who has composed many hit songs.
His songs are often covered by others, and he receives a lot of copyright fees every year. He is known as the little prince of copyright.
Meng Ziyi curled his lips, knowing that Wang Sulong was trying to evade: "Thank you."
"Don't talk about the show now. The new guests will be arriving soon. Who will pick them up?" Song Dandan asked.
"I'll go! I want to see who will come?" Meng Ziyi raised his hand actively.
"I'll go with Sister Meng, too. I can also help carry a bag or something." Guo Qilin said.
After the two of them finished speaking, Li Xueqin and Wang Hedi, who were sitting across from each other, also proposed to pick them up.
"Okay, then it'll be you four~" Song Dandan agreed.
After a while, Meng Ziyi and four others came out of the villa and walked out along the path.
"Sister Meng, how about we perform a show together?"
Wang Hedi came close to Meng Ziyi and took the initiative to propose the idea of cooperating with her on a show.
Meng Ziyi turned to look at him: "What do you know?"
Her words stopped Wang Hedi in his tracks. He thought for a few seconds and said unconfidently: "I can sing."
"But I remember your singing was pretty average"
Meng Ziyi's words without any thought made Wang Hedi stunned. He thought to himself: No matter how ordinary I am, I am much better than you.
"Who said that?
I sang the interlude in the previous film "Jian Ye 2"! ”
Wang Hedi debuted in 2018. Because of his excellent appearance, he was very popular with the company. He has currently filmed several TV series, and "Jian Ye 2", which was broadcast last year, is one of them.
It's a pity that it didn't cause any splash after it was aired.
"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. They still had to consider whether they wanted to act in a show together.
Wang Hedi smiled and nodded.
In fact, he liked Meng Ziyi very much before participating in this variety show. In the past two days, he always found opportunities to talk to Meng Ziyi in Taohuawu.
He has watched many TV series starring Meng Ziyi, and his favorite is the one called "East Palace".
"Qu Xiaofeng" played by Meng Ziyi is simply beautiful and extremely distressing.
The four of them walked and chatted, and soon arrived at the place where the program team arranged to pick them up.
I saw a silver-white BAIC Polar Fox Alpha approaching. This brand is also one of the program sponsors of [Taohuawu].
The car stopped, the rear door opened, and a tall figure wearing sunglasses came out of the car.
After seeing who was getting out of the car, the four people who came to pick him up all screamed in surprise.
Meng Ziyi held his hands on his chest, his beautiful eyes widened, and he couldn't suppress the expression of surprise on his face, and he trotted closer.
"Brother Wei, why are you here?"
Fortunately, Meng Ziyi had some sense and did not pounce directly.
Gu Wei didn't pay too much attention. Seeing Sister Meng's rushing attitude, he smiled and gave her a gentle hug.
"I'm coming to Taohuawu. Are you surprised?"
"Surprise, what a surprise!"
After hugging Meng Ziyi, Gu Wei hugged Guo Qilin again.
"Brother, welcome to be a member of Taohuawu, I will sweep the couch to welcome you!" Guo Qilin knows how to express his words.
"Sizhe has gained weight recently?" Gu Wei immediately started advertising his drama.
Guo Qilin also understood instantly: "You're a little fatter. Brother, have you just come back from "Northern Qi"?"
"I'm returning to Beijing secretly, don't tell anyone else yet"
They both laughed after saying this.
Meng Ziyi listened vaguely, looking at Gu Wei and then Guo Qilin, wondering what kind of riddle the two were playing.
"Oh! I see, you two are talking about [Celebrating More Than Years], right?"
Gu Wei smiled and said nothing. Guo Qilin gave a thumbs up: "Sister Meng, you are so smart. This is what I told Brother Wei about [Qing Yu Nian 2].
It will be broadcast on Tengxun Video soon. Please support me! ”
Meng Ziyi seemed to react very slowly, but her slowness was just right.
Stupidly, he said the title of the drama "Qing Yu Nian 2", and cooperated with Guo Qilin to promote the drama.
"Hello, Teacher Gu Wei!
I am Li Xueqin. ”
Li Xueqin was also a little excited when she saw Gu Wei. She was a pure fan versus idol.
Gu Wei smiled and shook hands with her.
"Hello, I have watched your talk show, Talented Girl of Peking University~"
"Don't dare to take it, don't dare to take it
Teacher Gu Wei, can you sign your autograph for me later? It would be even more perfect if you can take a photo with me! ”
"This is simple." Gu Wei agreed with a smile.
"Hello, Brother Wei, I am the new actor Wang Hedi."
Unlike Li Xueqin, who was a fan who was excited to see his idol, Wang Hedi was very surprised when he saw Gu Wei just now, and then became cautious.
Gu Wei's status and reputation are so great that he belongs to the pinnacle of the male star line. Everyone among the younger male artists in domestic entertainment envies Gu Wei and wants to be like Gu Wei.
"Hello, you made your debut in [Meteor Garden], Daoming Si, the young man is very handsome!"
Gu Wei said in a senior tone.
"I'm so far behind you.
I watched [Gu Jian Qi Tan], which was filmed when Brother Wei debuted. The show was very popular at the time, and all my classmates and friends around me were watching it." (End of Chapter)
