Chapter 513 I'm Not Out of Tune
The days in Cape Town ended completely with Gu Wei’s beautiful singing. The next morning, the Hua Shao group boarded a flight to Namibia.
After landing in Windhoek, the group drove to the Sossusvlei Desert, which was also the last stop of the "Flowers" group in Africa.
After experiencing the heavy work at the animal conservation base, the relaxation of driving to see the beautiful scenery made everyone feel extremely comfortable.
Gu Wei was driving the car, and Zhang Ruoyun was sitting in the passenger seat. He was about to step down as a tour guide at the African station, and he became more lively.
To be honest, in the show "Flowers and Youth", being a tour guide is really not an easy job. No matter who takes it on, it is a responsibility and a burden.
Fortunately, the cast of "Flowers" this time are all young people. Everyone has a good attitude and is not picky about things. They can tolerate anything.
Like last season, when Shuangzi was a tour guide and met those difficult older sisters, it was normal for her to have a mental breakdown.
Of course, Shuangzi’s mental state is not normal either.
"You carry the load, and I'll lead the horse."
Gu Wei was driving the car, and Zhang Ruoyun started singing while shaking her head.
Outside the window, there are vast yellow and green grasslands on both sides of the road. In the distance, the sky is vast and cloudless. The scenery is unique and beautiful, and the people in the car are gradually getting excited.
Gu Wei nodded along with Zhang Ruoyun's rhythm. Although she was not a professional singer, Zhang Ruoyun had a very good sense of rhythm.
The "Flowers and Youth" group had two off-road vehicles, with four people in each vehicle. Sitting in the back of Gu Wei's vehicle were Meng Ziyi and Song Zuer.
The two youngest girls also became excited at this time. Zul turned on his mobile phone, played some songs, and sang along with the rhythm, shaking his head.
"You are the wind, I am nothing."
The driver, Gu Wei, was also moved by their rhythm and hummed along.
Meng Ziyi, who was sitting in the back row, just twisted her body to the rhythm at first and laughed, but later she couldn't help but open her mouth to sing.
However, Sister Meng amazed everyone when she opened her mouth. She sang two lines along with the music, but not a single word was in tune.
This made her friend Zul look at her in surprise, and even Zhang Ruoyun in the co-pilot seat looked back frequently.
"Sister Meng, you sang it wrong!"
"Ah? Really? That's right, it's exactly this tune!"
Song Zuer couldn't help but remind her, but Meng Ziyi looked confident. In her world, there was nothing wrong with her singing.
Gu Wei looked at the two little girls in the back seat through the rearview mirror.
"Sister Meng, please sing a song alone!"
Meng Ziyi opened his mouth confidently, ready to follow good advice.
"You are the wind and I am the sand, we are entangled and will last until the end of the world."
"After Sister Meng finishes singing, we won't be able to reach the end of the world. We'll probably be buried in the wind and sand."
Zhang Ruoyun smiled and turned to look at the two little girls.
Laughter broke out again in the car.
Next, Song Zuer, who was sitting with Meng Ziyi, tried to correct Meng Jie's tone and wanted to lead her on the right path, but he failed after trying for a long time.
"Zul, Sister Meng is simply tone-deaf and tone-deaf. In her world, her singing is flawless, so there's no way to correct it."
Gu Wei gave some advice with a bit of amusement, but Meng Ziyi nodded in approval after hearing what Gu Wei said.
"Yes, yes, I really think I sang on point!"
No matter how the singing turned out, the confidence on his face made everyone laugh.
"It doesn't matter, Sister Meng, just sing, let's have fun!"
The off-road vehicle sped up to nearly 100 miles per hour, running freely in this deserted wilderness.
The weeds on both sides became less and less, the sand dunes in the distance slowly approached, and the sun gradually set. The people in the car drove to their next mission location - Sossusvlei Desert, accompanied by passionate music.
The group first went to the Sossusvlei camp to put down their luggage, and then took a tour bus to the sand dunes.
Eight people sat at the top of the huge sand dune, one leaning against the other. The sun in the distance was slowly setting, as if it was about to sink into the sea of sand.
"It's so beautiful! It's my first time watching the sunset in the desert!" Nazha was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and silk trousers, with a scarf on her head, looking a bit like an Arab woman.
It was very hot in the desert, and the girls were very careful about sun protection.
"I watched the sunset in the sea two days ago, and today I can see the sunset in the desert. This trip is really worthwhile!" Jiang Shuying beside her also sighed.
"Indeed, I'm a little tired." Song Zuer's face showed some fatigue. The work in Brazil was a little better, but the work in Africa really made her very tired.
Meng Ziyi, who was sitting next to her, nodded repeatedly, feeling sympathetic.
The two little girls slept in the same room during the nearly 20-day journey and formed a deep friendship.
"I've gotten tanned these days." Nazha complained as she looked at her fair skin.
"You call this darkening? We've gotten much better. Look at the boys, especially Zhang Ruoyun and Berlin. They've become much darker." Jiang Shuying turned the topic to the boys while chatting.
Unlike the relatively refined girls, the four boys were just sitting on the sand dunes in vests and shorts without any restraint. At most, they put on some sunscreen when they came.
"Xiao Jing is a bit darker, but he's a delicate boy, so I usually pay more attention to it and it's not obvious.
But why hasn't Gu Wei changed at all? He looks pretty much the same as Zhang Ruoyun, and he doesn't pay much attention to taking care of his skin, does he? "
The boys were admiring the sunset, and the girls looked at the boys and started discussing.
"Yeah, it seems like Brother Gu Wei hasn't changed at all since we started recording the show. I've even gotten a little darker.
I really want to know how he maintains it?" Song Zuer couldn't help but sigh as he looked at Gu Wei's profile in the afterglow of the setting sun.
"He is just like that. His skin is in such good condition that women envy him. Not only does he not get tanned easily, but he also has a very strong ability to recover." Nazha curled her lips. As someone who was close to him, she knew Gu Wei's good skin best, and she had always been particularly envious of him.
"Wow, there's such a thing, this is too good to be true!"
"I was born to be a star!"
"I'm envious"
Several girls sighed for a while, and Jiang Shuying suddenly reacted and looked at Nazha with a wicked smile.
"You know Gu Wei very well. You even know something as personal as his skin condition?"
"Uh" Nazha's big eyes rolled around.
"We've been filming together before, so it's normal to be concerned.
The last time we filmed "Detective Chinatown 2" together in New York, director Gu Wei worked until late every day to discuss the next day's filming tasks with the crew. It was very hard.
But it still didn’t affect his skin condition!"
"Sister Nazha, I really like your role as 'KIKO' in Detective Chinatown 2, it's so cool!" The topic was diverted by Song Zuer's compliment, and Nazha breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's really well acted, and the box office has exceeded 3 billion. I'm so envious.
No, I want to sleep with Nazha in my arms tonight and suck your good luck." Jiang Shuying didn't say a word and started joking again.
The group returned to Sossusvlei Camp until the sun sank into the sea of sand and they watched the famous red sand dunes at sunset.
The journey to the African station also came to an end.
The program crew thoughtfully prepared a hot pot meal for them.
There was an old Beijing copper hot pot on the round table, surrounded by beef, mutton slices, vegetables and seafood. Several people in the "Flowers and Youth" group were so moved that they almost cried.
"Jiang Jiang, you treated Berlin and me to hot pot before we left. What do you think of it?"
Jing Boyan was eating while interviewing Jiang Shuying next to him.
"It's so delicious! I often eat hot pot, but this is the most delicious hot pot I've ever had!"
Jiang Shuying picked up a piece of mutton from the hot pot, dipped it in the sesame paste in the bowl, put it in her mouth and chewed it carefully, as if she was tasting some unparalleled delicacy.
It’s not that the hot pot is too delicious, but that during the past 20 days or so, the Hua Shao group has been tasting the so-called local specialties besides bread and instant noodles.
It’s okay to try local specialties from abroad once, but Chinese palates are ultimately more suited to traditional Chinese food.
The Chinese food that has been carefully selected by our ancestors and passed down through thousands of years of history is the most suitable for the Chinese taste.
The next chapter will be a little later, and the plot of Flowers in the Palace will probably end within 2 to 3 chapters.
