Chapter 781 How is the performance?

“I’ve eaten at this restaurant twice, and it’s delicious and authentic.”

Gu Wei and Yang Mi were having dinner at a Cantonese restaurant near the program crew's hotel.

The decoration in the private room is very luxurious, and the dining table is filled with famous Cantonese dishes.

Gu Wei picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, nodding slightly.

"It tastes good, but aren't the dishes you ordered a bit too nutritious, Miss Mi?"

In addition to the steamed grouper he had just eaten, there were also Ayi abalone, braised sea cucumber in abalone sauce, blanched geoduck, snow clam stewed with papaya, and radish and beef brisket stew on the table.

For two people, this meal is a bit too much.

Yang Mi smiled slightly, reached out to serve himself a bowl of soup, and then served Gu Wei another bowl.

"Wouldn't it be better if I could treat you to a nice meal? Besides, you've come all this way, so I'd rather treat you to something good.

I work so hard, so it’s good for my health to eat more.”

Gu Wei picked up a sea cucumber and put it on his plate. He took a small bite and turned to look at Yang Mi beside him.

"You underestimate me, don't you? With my current physique, the so-called tonic is completely unnecessary. It's not even icing on the cake."

Although they had been in contact, he hadn't met Yang Mi for a long time, and Gu Wei could feel the other party's enthusiasm.

Ever since they met, Da Mimi's eyes have been fixed on him, and there is such passion in her eyes that it's as if Gu Wei himself has turned into a dish waiting for her to taste.

"Haha, all men are the same. No matter if they are capable or not, they have to force themselves to say they are capable."

"Miss Mi, don't you know whether I can do it or not?"

Da Mimi turned to look at Gu Wei, holding her chin with one hand, smiling: "I know you can do it before, but now

After all, we haven't seen each other for such a long time. Given your living habits and style, I'm not sure if it will work.

You can’t tell how a car performs by looking at its exterior, especially the engine performance and whether there’s oil in the tank; you have to drive it to find out.”

“Ahem.”

Yang Mi's words almost made Gu Wei spit out the soup in his mouth.

The sudden driving made him a little unsure of how to respond, and he couldn't prove it himself in the box.

Seeing Gu Wei speechless, Yang Mi's smile grew even wider.

She was not hungry. After taking two bites of food, she put down her chopsticks, leaned back slightly, crossed her legs, and crossed her hands in front of her chest, making her plump bust more prominent.

"Haven't you been filming recently?"

"I just finished filming the tribute film [My Hometown and Me] at the beginning of the month. I've been busy with company matters in Beijing these days and won't be joining the crew until next month."

"I heard that you and Wu Jing are going to collaborate on a new movie again?"

"Yes, sister Mi, you are well-informed."

"It's not that I'm well-informed, this matter has already spread in the circle, and it was Bona who released the news.

I don't need to say how much attention this news has attracted since you and Wu Jing collaborated again after "Wolf Warrior 2" and "The Wandering Earth."

"Yeah~ I understand. It's not something that needs to be kept secret."

"The movie is called "Changjin Lake", right? You play a soldier?" Yang Mi leaned forward slightly and asked curiously.

Gu Wei nodded.

"Yes, it's set against the backdrop of the Battle of Chosin Reservoir during the second battle of the Korean War. Brother Jing and I play a pair of brothers, and of course, we're both volunteer soldiers.

This project is a tribute film and was launched as early as last year.

Yu Dong from Bona Film Group wanted to make a super production, so he invited Chen Kaige, Xu Ke, and Lin Chaoxian to co-direct it, and asked Wu Jing and me to star in it."

"Brother Chen Kai, Xu Ke, Lin Chaoxian, plus you and Wu Jing, this lineup is too exaggerated.

Regardless of the film's content, many fans will flock to the cinema just for this lineup."

There was a hint of longing on Yang Mi's face. She had been trying to break into the film industry, and she envied Gu Wei's resources immensely.

Gu Wei smiled and said: "The cast and the like only play a role in promotion. The real factor that determines the box office is the quality of the film."

Yang Mi hesitated for a moment, then asked carefully, "Do you think there's a role suitable for me in The Battle at Lake Changjin?"

"No, that's not true. 'Changjin Lake' is a pure war film. The main cast is all male. The only female character with a bit of a role is the one that plays Wu Jing's mother and me."

Yang Mi curled her lips, feeling a little regretful, but she had only asked casually and didn't hold out much hope.

The two of them ate and talked, and it was already dark when they came out of the restaurant.

Back at the hotel, Gu Wei followed Yang Mi directly back to her room.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to take a shower~"

After entering the room, Yang Mi raised her hand and gently stroked Gu Wei's chest, then walked towards the bathroom with a smile.

Gu Wei looked at the other person's slim back and walked to the sofa in the living room and sat down.

Not long after, Yang Mi came out of the bathroom.

At this time, she changed into another set of clothes. She wore a black silk pajamas that fit tightly to her body, which highlighted her big S-shaped curves to the fullest. The flesh color was faintly visible under the hollow pattern, adding a bit of sexiness.

After walking to Gu Wei's side, Yang Mi sat directly on his lap.

Gu Wei also put his arms around the other's slender and soft waist.

Da Mimi smiled, reached out and gently pulled the gauze-like pajamas on her body, and a large area of ​​snow-white skin and a plump and towering upper body came into Gu Wei's sight. Then she put her arms around his neck.

"Now can we see how the vehicle performs?"

Gu Wei smiled and reached out one hand to his chest, gently lifting it up.

"I'm worried that Sister Mi will eventually become fatigued and lose her energy while driving."

"Haha, everyone can brag."

All that needs to be said has been said, and now it’s time to see the real deal.

To be honest, Yang Mi has known Gu Wei for 12 years and they have been together for 8 years. How could she not know the other person's strength?

She said this today simply because the two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and she wanted to express her dissatisfaction a little, and also to add some fun.

The next morning, Gu Wei woke Yang Mi up on the big bed in the bedroom.

It’s not that I don’t want her to sleep more, the two of them still have a show to record today.

"You are such a bull, you are so crazy, my waist still hurts a little bit now~"

Yang Mi sat up and stretched, frowning slightly and complaining with some dissatisfaction.

Gu Wei looked innocent: "It's exactly according to your request."

At around 9 o'clock, the recording of [Escape the Room] was about to begin. First, the five-member group who were regular guests got on the crew's bus from the hotel one after another.

After getting on the bus, a few people started to greet each other.

"Miss Mi, you look really good today!"

Huang Minghao is the youngest here and has been here since last season. He chats casually with Yang Mi and Zhang Ruoyun.

"Yeah?

"Don't you feel anything?" Yang Mi raised his hand and touched his face.

"Really? If you don't believe me, ask Brother Ruoyun and the others."

Yang Mi turned to look at the others.

She was wearing casual clothes today, a light yellow top and jeans. Generally, if there is no fixed plot in "Escape the Room", the guests' clothes will be very casual.

"Sister Mi is always beautiful~" Guo Qilin praised with a smile.

Zhang Ruoyun looked at Yang Mi carefully.

"It seems so. Sister Mi seems to be glowing today. If you have any good news, tell us and let us all be happy."

"I won the lottery, so I'm in a really good mood."

Yang Mi said this jokingly, but in her heart she was thinking of Gu Wei who had tormented her for half the night.

"Now that we are all here, can we set off?" Da Zhangwei asked.

The staff member in front of the car said, "Today, a new member will join the escape room team to complete the mission together with everyone."

“New member?

"Who is it?"

Several people looked confused, only Yang Mi knew what was going on, but she also cooperated with the acting on her face.

"Hello everyone!"

At this moment, Gu Wei got in the car and greeted everyone with a smile on his face.

"Gu Wei!"

"Hello, Brother Wei!"

"Teacher Gu Wei~"

Everyone, including Yang Mi, responded positively.

"I'm familiar with the others, but this is the first time I've met Teacher Da. I grew up listening to Teacher Da's songs~" Gu Wei said with a smile as he looked at Da Zhang Wei.

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it. I particularly like Mr. Gu Wei's movies and TV series, and my wife likes him even more.

I hope Teacher Gu can give me a few autographed photos later."

After exchanging a few words with Da Zhangwei, Gu Wei looked at Guo Qilin again.

"Qilin, I noticed that you've been on a lot of variety shows this year. You can be seen everywhere."

Guo Qilin understood what he meant, and he did participate in quite a few variety shows this year.

[Longing for Life Season 4], [The Brain: Burning Brain Season 3], [Running Man Season 4], [Escape Room Season 2], [Unknown Table] and [Men Doing Housework Season 2].

In addition to these, Guo Qilin also took on the "Fifty Kilometers Peach Blossom Village" being prepared by "Wajijiwa", but the recording of this variety show will only start in the second half of the year.

"Brother Wei, I'm not doing crosstalk right now, and our show hasn't started filming yet, so I have to find a job to support myself."

"You're not looking for a job, you're completely transforming from a crosstalk performer to a variety show star."

"What's wrong with being a variety show star? Qilin has a strong sense of variety shows and is suitable for this kind of job," Yang Mi spoke up for Guo Qilin.

According to Gu Wei, she can now be considered a variety show star.

Yang Mi finished filming the drama "Thank You Doctor" in the first half of the year and has no plans to join any new productions in the short term. Like Guo Qilin, he has taken on many variety shows.

It’s not that she is not motivated, it’s mainly because during the epidemic, even with her popularity and status, there are not many suitable films to shoot, so it’s better to take a rest.

Moreover, appearing on variety shows is easy and profitable, and it also helps maintain popularity, so it is naturally the best choice when you are not filming.

"Haha, Sister Mi is right. There's no distinction between high and low when it comes to appearing on variety shows or filming. We're all just doing work."

Everyone was chatting when the production team's car took them to this episode's secret room.

Gu Wei participated in an episode of "Escape the Room" last season and had a general understanding of the show's routine.

Enter from the entrance of the secret room, then solve the various puzzles in the levels, and finally find the final exit.

In the process, they will inevitably encounter various difficult problems, and everyone will contribute a lot of jokes in the process of solving them.

After more than half a day, the few people finally walked out of the secret room and the program was recorded.

After recording the show, Gu Wei invited everyone to have a meal together.

"Brother Wei, I really like the drama Joy of Life that you and Brother Guo starred in. When will the second season be aired?"

Huang Minghao asked while eating at the dinner table.

"[Joy of Life 2] will probably start filming around September, and it will be broadcast at the earliest in the second half of next year."

"We still have to wait so long! I really want to know what the second part is about and what Fan Xian will do after returning to Beijing."

Yang Mi smiled and said, "That's easy. Gu Wei is right here. Just ask him to tell you."

Huang Minghao looked at Gu Wei pitifully.

Gu Wei smiled and said, "To know what happens next, please listen to the next chapter!"

“Hahaha~”

Several people laughed.

After the dinner, this [Escape the Room] trip was officially over.

It's not just Gu Wei, other regular guests are the same.

They come to record for a day every half a month or so, and the material is cut into two episodes to be broadcast over two weeks.

Everyone can leave after today's recording, and come back later according to the program team's notification.

At night, in the hotel room.

This time it was the bedroom in Gu Wei's room.

After an intense exercise, Da Mimi lay beside him, breathing rapidly, the blush on her face still not fading.

"Are you going back to the capital tomorrow?"

"I'm not going back for now. I have to go to Wuxi first."

"Why are you going there? Didn't you say you'll be joining the group next month?"

The current environment has caused artists to lose almost all offline activities, and they can only work on set filming and recording variety shows.

And sometimes it also depends on local policies.

Gu Wei gently stroked Yang Mi's thick black hair and helped her push the scattered hair aside.

"[Rocket Girls 101], you know?"

"I know, it's the girl group that debuted on the 2018 hit talent show [Produce 101]"

"As of the 23rd of this month, Rocket Girls 101 will have officially been together for two years, and it's time for the group to disband.

I will attend their Rocket Girls 101 Farewell Ceremony in Wuxi."

Yang Mi frowned slightly. She really couldn't figure out why Gu Wei wanted to attend the girl group's farewell ceremony.

She raised her head slightly and suddenly remembered something.

"I remember now, your former assistant Yang Chaoyue was a member of Rocket Girls 101. Did you go there for her this time?"

Yang Chaoyue had been with Gu Wei as his personal assistant for almost two years, so Yang Mi certainly knew her.

But she didn't care at first, after all, she was just a small assistant. It was not until she participated in "Creation 101" and became famous, and her identity as Gu Wei's assistant was revealed, that Yang Mi was impressed by her.

Gu Wei smiled: "That's part of the reason.

I am also a major shareholder of Wajijiwa, and Rocket Girls 101 is a girl group under Wajijiwa.

It’s normal for me to attend the farewell ceremony.”

"I really don't understand why you would make an assistant a star?"

[Rocket Girls 101] has 11 members. Yang Chaoyue is not good at singing or dancing but she was able to debut as the third one. Moreover, two years after the group was formed, her popularity far exceeds that of other members in the same group.

Now the audience can’t recognize the members of Rocket Girls 101 if they appear individually, and it’s useless even if they hear the group’s name.

But when it comes to Yang Chaoyue's teammates, many people will suddenly understand.

In Yang Mi's opinion, Yang Chaoyue's current fame is entirely the result of the support of his boss Gu Wei.

In addition to working with the team in the past two years, the other party has also had a lot of independent resources.

For example, in the popular TV series "Joy of Life", she played the heroic "Ye Ling'er" and gained a lot of popularity.

Otherwise, what's the reason? Is it because Yang Chaoyue has a low education level? Is he bad at singing and dancing?

"You can't say it's my fault, Chao Yue does have the potential to be a star, she got a great opportunity, and her personality is also very attractive to fans.

I just gave it a little push from behind."

"Hehe, it feels good to be nurtured, right?"

Yang Micai didn't believe in the idea of ​​just a little push. She had put in so much effort, and only managed to make a popular actress.

Most of the other artists in [Jaywalk] are not very popular, but there are some particularly good-looking female artists among them.

In her opinion, Yang Chaoyue's only advantage is that he is good-looking, but in the entertainment industry, good looks are only an entry requirement.

"What kind of development? I've already told you that they rely on themselves, but I just picked up a huge traffic star for free, it's like pie in the sky."
