Chapter 506 Doraemon
After the meeting, the seven people went out together to find a nearby supermarket to make purchases.
When I met pedestrians on the road and asked them for directions, everyone discovered a problem.
Except for Meng Ziyi and Naza, everyone in the Hua Shaotuan group is a master of English. Originally, there should be no communication barriers when traveling in Western countries, but the official language of Brazil is Portuguese. Not everyone can speak English.
This causes everyone to have big problems in communicating with others.
When asking for directions, Jing Bairan kept talking about "supermarket" for a long time, leaving pedestrians confused.
In the end, Gu Wei couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to ask in Portuguese where the nearby supermarket was. The passerby suddenly understood and pointed in the direction with his finger.
"Wow! Gu Wei, you can actually speak Portuguese. Very few people in China who are not professional translators learn this language!"
Jiang Shuying looked at Gu Wei in surprise. People were also very surprised that he could communicate proficiently in Portuguese.
“I have some talent in languages, and I studied for a while because of my hobby.”
Gu Wei shrugged and said nonchalantly.
For him, who is hung up, the whole world can communicate without any barriers.
No matter what language, as long as you learn a little bit, you can become proficient in it immediately through the panel.
“That’s great. I was still worried about how to communicate with other people when we go out in Brazil these days. Now it will be much smoother in the future!”
Jing Bairan saw Gu Weixiu He showed his language skills and looked excited.
Since he arrived today, he has been in contact with the car for the past few days. It was originally difficult to find a driver who could speak English, but now that he knew that Gu Wei could speak Portuguese, the driver was free.
The other little girls also looked at Gu Wei with a little admiration, and Nazha looked proud.
A group of people followed the instructions of passers-by and went to a nearby supermarket. They went around and bought a lot of ingredients. Gu Wei acted as a translator throughout the process. He had to help read the Portuguese on the packaging and tell everyone what it meant.
Besides him, the other six people called him whenever they wanted to buy something. Meng Ziyi and Song Zuer were a little embarrassed, but the other four were not polite at all.
Gu Wei now knows what it means that with great power comes great responsibility, and he is busy enough to come and go.
It was already 9pm after we settled the bill, and it was obviously too late to go back and prepare dinner, so we decided to have a bite at a nearby restaurant and experience the local characteristics of Rio for our first meal after landing.
The group of people didn't go far when they came across a restaurant. After sitting down, Gu Wei picked up the menu and read the names and prices of the dishes to everyone.
“The food here is not cheap!”
Jiang Shuying, the general manager of finance, sighed. The total amount of funds in her hand is 4,600 Brazilian reals. She took a taxi from the airport. , she just spent 574 on shopping in the supermarket. She will have to spend money everywhere in the future. Now she is reluctant to part with every dollar she takes out.
In the end, everyone struggled for a long time and only ordered two dishes under Jiang Finance's control.
"Let's drink more Coke so that we don't feel hungry~" Meng Ziyi was open-minded. She thought that anything would be fine, and it didn't matter if she didn't eat at night.
"Eat less now, and you can make instant noodles when you go back." Song Zuer was thinking about what he just bought in the supermarket, and didn't care about the two dishes in front of him.
Zhang Ruoyun looked at the two dishes that were served and frowned slightly. He had done a lot of exercise moving and packing today, and he was indeed a little hungry now.
"I see that the two people next to me ordered three dishes. There are seven of us."
Gu Wei looked at everyone looking very hungry and sensible, and turned to the person next to him. Jiang Shuying said: "Today is the first day. We can let everyone eat better and feel the local characteristics. It will be too late to control consumption later."
Jiang Shuying looked at Gu Wei and then at everyone, and without too much hesitation, she asked Gu Wei to go over with her and continue ordering.
After the two stood up, Gu Wei looked up and suddenly saw something, and took two steps with Jiang Shuying.
"Jiang Jiang, I want to talk to the boss. You wait for me here. Maybe we can eat enough and save money with this meal."
Jiang Shuying 1 She looked at him with confusion, but she let Gu Wei do it out of trust. After all, she didn't understand Portuguese. Without Gu Wei as a translator, she couldn't even order.
She stood there, watching Gu Wei go to find the boss, watching the two exchange gestures, and then inexplicably took a photo together, and finally the boss shook hands with Gu Wei happily.
"Is this ready?
Have you finished ordering?"
Jiang Shuying looked at Gu Wei who came back and asked curiously.
"I've finished ordering, let's wait for the food to be served!"
Gu Wei didn't say much, and Jiang Shuying returned to her seat with a question mark on her head.
After a while, the waiters began to serve them one after another.
“Wow, why are there so many!”
“It looks so rich!”
“Oh my God, did Jiang Jiangyou spend all our money today? A meal is served?”
“.”
In a short time, all kinds of dishes filled the table.
Specialized Brazilian barbecue, seafood soup, and unknown but delicious local delicacies.
Jing Bairan is not as excited as others. As someone who has experienced it, he clearly knows how troublesome it will be in the future if funds are insufficient.
He frowned and looked at Jiang Shuying next to him.
“Don’t look at me, this is all done by Gu Wei, and I don’t know what’s going on!”
Jiang Shuying spread her hands. Although she wanted to take responsibility, she definitely couldn't stop what Gu Wei wanted to do.
Gu Wei picked up the fork in his hand and inserted a piece of Brazilian barbecue into his mouth.
“Well, it tastes pretty good~”
Then he noticed Jing Bairan’s gaze on him and waved his hand casually.
“Don’t worry, this table of dishes, including the two previously ordered, are free, given by the boss!”
"What's going on?"
"How is it possible? Is the boss such a nice person?"
"Brother Wei, was it arranged by the program team?"
"." Everyone Eating the delicious food happily, they were also surprised when they heard what Gu Wei said.
Most people think it may have been arranged by the program team to let them land and have a good meal.
Jing Bairan has experience, and he clearly knows that it is impossible for the "Hua Shao" program team to arrange this meal for everyone.
He waited for Gu Wei's explanation.
"Of course it can't be arranged by the show crew. How could they be so kind? I already told you that it was given by the boss!"
Gu Wei picked up the napkin on the table and wiped the corners of his mouth. Oil stains.
His words made everyone more curious, and everyone looked at him with searching eyes.
Nazha took a sip of the seafood soup and looked up at Gu Wei curiously.
“Look over there~”
Gu Wei raised his finger and pointed in the direction across the road.
Everyone also looked in the direction of his finger.
"What? I didn't see anything." Zhang Ruoyun squinted his eyes and didn't know what Gu Wei was referring to.
“I saw it, Brother Wei, there seems to be an LV luxury store over there, with your poster hanging on the glass wall on the side!”
Meng Ziyi shouted with excitement on his face .
Following her words, everyone also saw the location of the store.
“I went over to tell my boss that I was a Chinese star who was recording a show, and pointed him to the LV poster opposite, and asked him if I could get a discount?
Unexpectedly, the boss was very forthcoming and promised that as long as I took a photo with him and allowed him to hang the photo in the store, the order would be waived and a table of dishes would be given as a gift. "
After Gu Wei said this, everyone suddenly realized.
"Wow! That’s okay, then wouldn’t it be possible for us to use this method to eat and drink for free when we go to other places? ”
Song Zuer looked happy. He was very excited at the thought of saving money and eating delicious food. It seems that [Hua Shao] is not difficult and does not require them to endure any hardship.
"This method can be used by Gu Wei. He has several international endorsements and sells products all over the world, even in Brazil. Other domestic celebrities simply cannot do it.
No one knows who you are when you go abroad."
Jiang Shuying sighed, Jing Boran and Zhang Ruoyun also looked at Gu Wei with complicated expressions.
They know their fame. There is a big gap between Ka Wei and Gu Wei, but it is too exaggerated to still have such a clear comparison after leaving the country.
The rest of Nazha, Meng Ziyi and Song Zuer looked at them with admiration. Looking at Gu Wei.
"It's not as exaggerated as Jiang Jiang said. We caught up today. There happens to be an LV store opposite, and the boss is also generous.
In fact, I am not well-known in Brazil at all. "
Gu Wei waved his hand and said.
How much he weighs, he knows best.
Seeing that everyone did not believe it, Gu Wei explained again.
"For example, some domestic luxury stores will also have advertisements for foreign celebrity models. When you see them when you go to the mall, can you remember the foreigners on them?
Will you know specifically what the other person's name is and what he does? "
Everyone thought for a while and shook their heads.
"So, it is the same truth, and I am the same here.
Although there are my posters in stores like LV and Bulgari, as well as in large advertising spaces in some cities, the locals don’t know who I am, and they won’t understand it.
They just think of it as a handsome foreign model.
So we are totally lucky today and met a generous boss."
Although Gu Wei said so, everyone still had a happy meal. After eating and drinking, everyone drove along the original road Walking back happily.
"Brother Wei, I think you look like an anime character~"
The sweet girl Meng Ziyi came up to Gu Wei and said with a smile.
“Like what? ”
"Like Doraemon!"
"Do I look like Fatty Blue?"
"No, no, I mean you are omnipotent.
Look at you Being proficient in Portuguese allows us to have a free meal and can solve any problem. Although you don’t have all kinds of magical props, you are a magical prop in your own right!”
“Uh, am I a prop?
Your metaphor is so unique, I just thought you were complimenting me, Ziyi."
Gu Wei looked at Meng Ziyi's clear eyes, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
"Haha~ I think What Ziyi said makes sense. Your nickname, Gu Wei, might as well be Doraemon. It suits you so well! "
Zhang Ruoyun patted Gu Wei on the shoulder happily. After a few days of getting along with him, he was able to joke with Gu Wei unscrupulously.
"Ahem~ I think it is necessary to talk to Gu Wei. The program team told me that the wine in the refrigerator at home is really useless, why not let them take it all away"
Gu Wei smiled and raised his eyebrows at Zhang Ruoyun.
"Don't, brother!
I don't think this nickname is worthy of your handsome appearance at all!"
Zhang Ruoyun was stunned instantly, making the others laugh.
