Chapter 428 Getting More Into the Play
The next day, Meng Ziyi filmed a few more scenes before leaving the crew. She was a little reluctant, and when she left, she huddled up to Gu Wei and repeatedly emphasized, "Brother, don't forget what you promised me~"
Gu Wei was also a little helpless. He said like coaxing a child that he understood and asked her not to miss the flight.
Jiang Peiyao and Tian Xiwei, who were watching this scene, were full of curiosity.
Xiaotian looked at Meng Ziyi and felt that she looked familiar, as if he had seen her in movies and TV dramas before.
Jiang Peiyao graduated from Beijing Film Academy, one year younger than Gu Wei and one year older than Meng Ziyi. She recognized Meng Ziyi the first time she saw her.
"Brother Wei, that person who just left was Meng Ziyi, right?"
Gu Wei nodded.
"Sister Yaoyao, do you know her?"
Oda asked curiously.
Jiang Peiyao shook her head.
"She is the campus beauty of the next class after me at Beijing Film Academy. She is quite famous in the school. I know her, but I have no connection with her."
"Meng Ziyi?"
Tian Xiwei's big eyes rolled around.
"Oh~ I remembered the role of the school beauty she played in Love O2O. I was wondering why she looked so familiar.
[Weiwei] I’ve read it several times.”
After saying that, she pursed her lips and looked at Gu Wei with wide eyes.
"Brother Wei~you guys"
It was during the filming period that she became completely familiar with Gu Wei. If she had just joined the crew, Tian Xiwei would definitely not have the courage to take the initiative to eat melons.
Gu Wei rubbed Xiaotian's head in annoyance, ruffling her hair.
"Ziyi is a contracted artist of my company. She will graduate in a year. I promised her that after graduation, I would give her the role of the leading actress~"
"That's great! Brother Wei, your artists are so lucky."
Tian Xiwei looked at him enviously while fixing her hair.
Reba, who was standing by, glanced at Gu Wei and smiled.
"The artists in Ni Wei Ge's company are indeed very happy and never have to worry about film and television resources.
If I hadn't signed with an agency while I was still in school, I would have loved to have been signed to his agency."
Gu Wei raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at Reba.
"It's the same now. After all, I'm still your boss~"
"Indeed, Boss Gu, you must take good care of me in the future."
Reba said jokingly.
"Hehe~ Let's see how you perform."
“.”
As the filming of "You Are My Glory" progressed, Gu Wei and Reba became more and more immersed in the role.
The two of them are together almost 24 hours a day. During the day, they shoot various sweet interactive scenes on the set, and when they return to the hotel at night, Reba still sticks to Gu Wei.
This resulted in the two of them having ambiguous conversations on the set even when they were not filming.
Gu Wei is relatively okay, but Reba is a little too immersed in the role, looking like a little girl in love.
The crew members also felt their performance, but no one reacted much.
As a director with more than 20 years of filming experience, Lin Yufen has seen many situations where the male and female protagonists in the crew are so immersed in their roles.
This would be more conducive to the filming of the TV series, and she is happy to see it happen.
The other crew members would not say anything either. Gu Wei was the real boss, and it was not the first day for everyone to start working, so they all knew what they could and could not say.
Tian Xiwei looked at Gu Wei, then at Reba, feeling that she was redundant, as if she had eaten a mouthful of dog food.
She is not stupid. Apart from filming, she usually eats and drinks with Gu Wei, and they have a lot of fun together. How could she not see the ambiguous relationship between the two people in front of her?
In the play, she plays "Xiao Zhu", the assistant of the heroine "Qiao Jingjing", who is happy to see the hero and heroine together.
But in reality, when she saw the ambiguity between her idol Gu Wei and Sister Baba, she felt complicated.
On the one hand, as a fan, she is very happy to support this couple, but on the other hand, how can Tian Xiwei not have some extravagant hopes in her heart when she can now become friends with her once high-ranking idol.
Not long after, the crew continued filming, and Gu Wei and Reba went to perform.
Jiang Peiyao stood beside Tian Xiwei and patted her shoulder.
"It's a bit uncomfortable to see your idol being so sweet with someone else, right?"
Oda, who was looking in the direction of the crew, came to his senses.
"No way, Sister Yaoyao, don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Peiyao smiled.
“What are you thinking? Others may not notice it, but I can still see it.
I just don't believe that as a fan you don't have any thoughts about your idol?"
"I just simply like the TV series and movies that Brother Wei shoots."
Tian Xiwei was still being stubborn.
"You used to be an ordinary fan, only able to see your idol through movies and TV shows. You two were like people living in two different worlds, with no intersection.
So you can ship all kinds of CPs with Gu Wei without any scruples to satisfy your own fantasies.
Now that you've truly gotten to know Gu Wei and become his friend, how could you not have some ulterior motives when you're still greedy for more?"
Jiang Peiyao winked at Tian Xiwei.
“I don’t have any.”
Oda felt very embarrassed when his thoughts were revealed.
"Don't be embarrassed, it's normal for you to think this way."
Tian Xiwei looked at Jiang Peiyao in surprise.
"Sister Yaoyao, are you also..."
"Yes, I liked Gu Wei before, especially when I first entered college."
Jiang Peiyao said frankly.
Tian Xiwei looked at her with wide eyes, an expression of disbelief.
"Don't look at me like that. When I first entered Beijing Film Academy, Gu Wei was just a sophomore.
At that time, his first movie "The Sword of Assassin" was a big hit. Although he was just a newcomer in the entertainment industry, he was an absolute celebrity in school.
And with your looks, Brother Wei is definitely the most handsome boy on campus at Beijing Film Academy, and he's the absolute most handsome guy in the class, unmatched by anyone in the class above and below."
At this point, Jiang Peiyao also fell into memories of the past, while Tian Xiwei listened to her quietly without saying a word.
"At that time, every time Gu Wei played basketball, he would attract a large number of girls from the school to watch.
The public classes he attended were always crowded, and he would always attract the attention of female classmates when he walked on the street.
At that time, there were so many girls in school who liked Gu Wei that his every move was spread by his classmates and became a topic of discussion among the girls in private.
“So amazing.”
Tian Xiwei sighed.
"Of course. When you were in school, were there any handsome, good-looking, and good at basketball?
Just like the male protagonist "Yu Tu" in our TV series, he is a true campus idol and the secret crush of all the female classmates.
People like him in ordinary schools would receive a lot of love letters, not to mention in a place like Beijing Film Academy where there are handsome men and beautiful women everywhere. Gu Wei was able to gain unanimous recognition from everyone. How popular do you think he was at that time?
Moreover, when we were still studying in school, the movie he starred in sold 200 million, which was an achievement that no one could match.
As far as I know, when Gu Wei was in school, there were always female classmates pursuing him. There were also quite a few girls in our class, but unfortunately he rejected them all~"
"Sister Yaoyao, didn't you do anything at that time?"
Tian Xiwei asked curiously.
Jiang Peiyao rolled her eyes at her.
"Sister Yaoyao, I still have self-awareness. Although I can be considered a beauty, I was not outstanding at school. So many good-looking classmates and seniors have failed. How could I humiliate myself?"
"So Brother Wei hasn't had a girlfriend in these four years at school?"
Hearing her ask this, Jiang Peiyao unconsciously lowered her voice.
"I actually know what you're asking about. Gu Wei actually had a girlfriend when he was at Beijing Film Academy.
This is not a secret. They were all public at school. With Gu Wei's fame, everyone who followed him at school knew about it."
"Who? Tell me quickly."
Tian Xiwei looked anxious, and her gossip spirit was already burning at this moment.
Jiang Peiyao's lips curled up slightly.
"You know this person too? She's a female celebrity?"
"I know her? A female celebrity?"
Oda didn't understand.
"Didn't you say you've watched that idol drama starring Gu Wei several times?"
"You mean Nazha from O2O."
Tian Xiwei looked incredulous.
"I was thinking how sweet their acting was when I was watching the TV series. It was just like a couple in love. It turns out they really are boyfriend and girlfriend."
Oda muttered to himself.
"So Brother Wei's current girlfriend is Nazha?"
Jiang Peiyao shook her head.
"I don't know either.
In fact, Gu Wei and Nazha were together for less than a year when they were in school, and then they broke up.
It was also because of the breakup with Nazha that other girls in the school had the opportunity to pursue Gu Wei at that time.
Too bad he never accepted anyone else.
After the second half of his sophomore year, Gu Wei's career flourished and his fame grew, so apart from final exams, he rarely appeared on campus.
"Is that so?"
After listening to the gossip about her idol, Tian Xiwei turned her eyes to the location where the crew was filming, wondering what she was thinking.
The shooting progress of [You Are My Glory] is not slow. The plot is relatively simple, and the main roles are concentrated on the male and female protagonists. With Gu Wei and Reba's acting skills and state, many shots were shot in one take. The director sometimes asked them to shoot again to avoid any problems and save one take.
Tian Xiwei, a newcomer who plays a minor supporting role, gradually got into the state after a period of filming. This sweet girl is still very spiritual, and Lin Yufen has always had a good eye.
Jiang Peiyao is a professional actor who was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy as a graduate student on her own ability. Her acting skills are also above average and she rarely made any NGs from the beginning.
A few days later, Hu Ke, who played the role of "Sister Ling", the agent of the heroine "Qiao Jingjing", and Pan Yueming, who played "Guan Zai", a colleague of "Yu Tu" at the Aerospace Research Institute, joined the crew one after another.
The crew's filming location also moved to the "Shanghai Aerospace Technology Research Institute" located at No. 3888 Yuanjiang Road, MH District, Shanghai, which is where "Yu Tu" works in "You Are My Glory".
Before filming this TV series, Gu Wei asked Yang Liwen to communicate with the National Space Administration through China Film Group Corporation. As expected, with Gu Wei's strong personal influence, the Space Administration agreed to provide certain support to the crew during filming after reading the script.
For example, when they are now shooting the scenes where the male protagonist "Yu Tu" works in the unit, they can conduct 100% real-life shooting at the "Shanghai Academy of Aerospace Technology".
Moreover, when it comes to some aerospace professional knowledge in the TV series, there will be specialized technicians to help improve it.
In this way, when the TV series is released later, no audience will be able to find fault with the aerospace aspects, and the TV series can be considered perfect in terms of professionalism.
"Why is the traffic so congested? It takes almost two hours to get to Lujiazui~"
In a car, Reba sat in the passenger seat, looking at the motionless traffic in front, and said somewhat unhappily.
They were filming a scene in the car. The male lead picked up the female lead at the airport, and the two drove back to the female lead's home.
Of course, the car was moving in the shot, but in reality the two people were performing in a stationary vehicle.
Gu Wei rolled down the car window and looked out.
"It's rush hour, there might be an accident ahead."
As he said this, his eyes rolled. "Miss Qiao, I have a suggestion. The road to your house is too congested. Are you interested in changing your destination?"
He pointed to the navigation in the car.
"We'll be there in twenty minutes."
Reba squinted her eyes and looked at it.
"Famous Tianyu City?"
“That’s where I live.”
"Is there someone like you who takes your blind date home on your first date?"
Gu Wei put his hands on the steering wheel and smiled slightly.
"I think so. I remember I knew a girl before. After playing games for a few days, she asked me to go to her house every day."
Reba held back her laughter and said deliberately:
"Did you go then?
If you go, you won't be serious. I can't go on a blind date with you!"
Gu Wei turned his head and looked at Reba with a serious expression.
“No!”
Reba looked at him sideways.
"You liar, it seems that you can't trust what you say in the future~"
"What evidence do you have that I went there and that you knew that girl?"
Gu Wei raised his eyebrows, curled up the corners of his mouth, and looked at her.
"I"
"Cut! This shot is over, no need to move the camera, just touch up your makeup and take the next one"
The director's words came from the loudspeaker, and the staff around came forward to tidy up the clothes of the two people in the car and touch up their makeup.
Soon Gu Wei and Reba continued with another shot in the car.
The two of them had already driven to the downstairs of the male protagonist "Yu Tu"'s house and were preparing to get off and go home.
Reba unbuckled her seat belt, looked at the family building outside the car window, turned to Gu Wei and smiled:
"I think it's a bit tacky to come see my blind date's house right after the blind date."
Gu Wei grabbed her hand, raised his other arm, and gently stroked Reba's hair.
"What if my problem is more serious? I just went on a blind date and I'm thinking..."
Then he leaned his face forward, and with the hand behind Reba's head, he exerted a little force and pulled her towards him.
Their lips and teeth touched, and Gu Wei's face turned slightly to the side, so that their faces were at an angle of about 60 degrees. In this way, Gu Wei and Reba's high nose bridge and perfect jaw line could be shown beautifully in the camera.
The two closed their eyes and immersed themselves in the kiss. Reba unconsciously put her arms around Gu Wei's neck.
"Ka! Reba, don't do it. The male protagonist is the one taking the initiative in this scene. Just enjoy it without resisting, but don't take the initiative, understand!"
The director's voice woke Reba who was immersed in it.
After separating from Gu Wei, she licked her lips, feeling a little embarrassed. She really couldn't help herself while kissing just now.
"Okay, Director, I understand."
Gu Wei smiled mischievously at Reba, causing her to pat him lightly.
"Hate it, don't laugh at me"
"No~ I just think you're so dedicated and professional in your acting!"
As he said this, he smiled and gave her a thumbs up.
Reba rolled her eyes at Gu Wei and said nothing.
When filming the kiss for the second time, Reba remembered the director's request and didn't let herself get too immersed. As a result, Director Lin said that it didn't feel right, so they filmed it for the third time, and this time it finally passed smoothly.
