Chapter 530 Ask You to Fulfill Your Promise
The next day, the crew continued filming as normal.
After finishing a sweet scene with Yang Zi, Gu Wei came out of the filming location.
"When you arrive, you should call me in advance so I can send someone to pick you up."
In the rest area, Zhao Liying stood there prettyly, looking at Gu Wei who had just finished filming with a smile on her face.
She was wearing a white dress today and a green bow headband on her head. Her facial features were delicate and pretty, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and her big eyes were watery and lovely. She looked exceptionally pretty and beautiful.
"I just arrived and saw you were filming so I waited for a while.
No need to bother, you told me the address, I went outside and said I was visiting you, and they let me in."
Zhao Liying looked at Gu Wei with a smile, obviously in a very good mood.
Yesterday, Gu Wei received a WeChat message from Zhao Liying, asking him where the crew’s address was and wanting to come visit him on set.
Of course Gu Wei would not refuse such a thing and directly sent her the address.
"Actually, you don't have to say anything. The staff will let you in once they see your face. After all, Liyingni is so popular now."
After saying that, Gu Wei introduced Yang Zi who was beside him to her.
"I called a coffee truck over today and brought some fruit. Is a latte okay?"
The two greeted each other, and Zhao Liying took a cup of coffee from the assistant and handed it to Yang Zi.
"Thank you Sister Liying, you guys chat, I'm going to go touch up my makeup." Yang Zi took the coffee and walked away very tactfully, leaving the two of them some space to be alone together.
"Why is this visit to the set so formal? It's too expensive."
Gu Wei glanced around and saw the coffee cart that Zhao Liying mentioned. It was parked not far away. The crew members were distributing coffee to everyone. There was also a small cart of watermelons next to it, and people were constantly moving them down.
"If I come to visit you on set without bringing something, I'm afraid people will think I'm stingy and I'll lose face for you." Zhao Liying smiled and didn't care.
"I want to thank you on behalf of the crew. This is my company's production. It belongs to Liying. Please spend money to reward my employees."
Gu Wei gestured for Zhao Liying to sit down, and he also took a cup of hot coffee from his assistant.
"Aren't you busy lately? From what I know about you, you'd rather spend 365 days a year on the set. How do you have time to come visit me on set?"
"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I have to shoot the show, but I also have other work to do.
I came to Shanghai to attend a brand event and happened to have half a day free.
I saw on the news a while ago that your new play has started filming in Shanghai, so I came to see you."
Zhao Liying also picked up the coffee in front of her, blew on it, and slowly took a sip.
"Has the filming of [Daughter Kingdom] finished?"
The last time the two met was at the Tengxun Star Awards after New Year's Day. They had dinner together after the party. Gu Wei remembered that Zhao Liying had told him that she would soon join the crew of "Journey to the West: The Women Kingdom" directed by Soi Cheang.
"The filming was completed a long time ago. Don't you pay attention to my news at all?" Zhao Liying was speechless.
Gu Wei touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, but he still argued a few words.
"Why haven't you been paying attention? Princess Agents has been so popular lately, and the internet is full of news about you. There are several trending searches alone. I even watched your episode of Happy Camp a few days ago."
"oh?
Then tell me what games we played on that episode of Happy Camp? " Zhao Liying raised her chin slightly, motioning for Gu Wei to start talking.
"Forehead
Isn’t [Happy Camp] all the same old stuff, just those games? We also had it when we were promoting [My Fair Princess], so there’s nothing much to say.”
Gu Wei laughed it off. He had never seen what his agent said, so of course he wouldn't know.
"Okay, I won't make things difficult for you. I know you are a busy person and have more things to do than me." Zhao Liying smiled and stopped teasing Gu Wei.
"When will your play be finished?"
"Before the middle of next month, or at the beginning of the month if it's quick."
"So what are your plans next?"
"I will be joining the crew to shoot a movie before the end of June."
Although he was a little surprised that Zhao Liying suddenly cared about his work, Gu Wei still answered normally.
There was nothing to keep secret about his own work arrangements from the other party.
"I'll be joining the crew at the end of June." Zhao Liying lowered her head and thought for a while.
“How long will that movie take?”
Gu Wei gave her a strange look.
"It's a big-budget science fiction movie. The entire shooting period is very long, about 5 months."
When she said this, Zhao Liying frowned.
".But my scenes will be finished in about two months."
After she finished speaking, her brows relaxed again and she revealed a sweet smile.
"That's perfect. Did you receive the script for [Noon Sunshine]?"
"Got it. I'm still considering whether to accept this role."
At this point, Gu Wei also understood that Zhao Liying probably came to persuade him to take the role.
"I have to thank you first. I've already accepted the TV series [Do You Know?]. I heard from Producer Hou that he also took your suggestions into consideration."
"There's no need to be so polite between us. Liying, you are so outstanding. I am just telling you the truth. Besides, you are indeed suitable for that role!" Gu Wei waved his hand and said indifferently.
Zhao Liying was all smiles.
"I know, I didn't treat you as an outsider, so when I heard from the people at [Noon Sunshine] that you didn't accept the script right away, I came to find you right away."
Gu Wei understood what Zhao Liying meant, but there was still some hesitation on his face.
"Gu Wei, remember you promised me a cooperation, now is the time for you to fulfill your promise.
I really like this book and I understand your concerns, so I'm writing this to help me.
Look, your name is Gu Wei, and the character in the play is called 'Gu Tingye'. It was destined that you would play this role."
In order to impress Gu Wei, Zhao Liying said a lot in a hurry, which made Gu Wei laugh.
"Okay, okay, I'll take the call. I'll call Mr. Hou from Noon Sunshine later.
I don’t want to go back on my word, and I don’t want to let down the opportunity God has given me.”
Listening to Gu Wei's words, Zhao Liying's smile became even brighter.
"Gu Wei, thank you~
Thinking about it now, it’s really great that I knew you.
We became friends since the show "My Sweetheart" and you've helped me so much along the way."
Zhao Liying looked at Gu Wei with big eyes, her tone full of affection.
"Don't be sentimental~
We just said we are friends, there's no need to thank each other.
Besides, you, Zhao Xiaodao, are no ordinary person. With your level of hard work, as long as there is a slight opportunity for you to seize, you will succeed no matter what!"
Gu Wei has always believed that among all the female celebrities in the entertainment industry, no one can compete with Zhao Liying in terms of career hard work.
Da Mimi is capable of fighting, but Yang Mi is a young celebrity who knows what to do. He works hard when he needs to, and can have fun when he needs to relax.
Because Zhao Liying started from a low point and experienced life at the bottom of society, she has never relaxed.
"Let's have lunch together later?"
Gu Wei agreed to take the role, Zhao Liying breathed a sigh of relief, and the two began to chat casually.
"I have to go to the brand soon. After finishing this event today, I'll fly to Beijing tonight."
"Is time so tight?"
"Yes, I took the whole morning off to come look for you."
"I'm flattered that such a busy star still squeezes out time to visit me on set!" Gu Wei said with a smile.
"My schedule is similar to yours. I'm also about to start filming a TV series, which will be finished around August. This will give me a month in advance to prepare for [The Story of Minglan].
This drama is different from previous ancient costume fantasy dramas. I have discussed with Director Zhang Kaizhou that the character's movements, demeanor and language habits must meet certain standards, so I have to prepare well."
It’s no wonder that Zhao Liying has always been successful. She really tries her best to make every drama she takes on well. Hardworking Zhao is always online.
At the other end of the set, Yang Zi and Jiang Peiyao sat together, drinking coffee and eating melon seeds, their eyes watching Gu Wei and Zhao Liying chatting not far away.
“I didn’t expect Zhao Liying and Brother Wei to have such a good relationship!
"After [My Sweetheart], I never heard of any collaboration between the two. I always thought they were just ordinary friends." Jiang Peiyao sighed.
From their angle, they could clearly see Gu Wei and Zhao Liying chatting enthusiastically, and it was obvious that the two had a special relationship.
“It’s normal. Although they haven’t collaborated much, we can always see news about them appearing together at various award ceremonies in the past few years.
Didn’t the media report that the two were wearing matching shirts at the Magnolia Awards last year?
Yang Zi was not surprised at this situation at all. She had known Gu Wei for many years and knew his temper and personality very well.
Except for meeting mentally ill people like Shuangzi, it is normal for any actress who has worked with Gu Wei to become good friends with him.
"Is this the legendary fish seeking fish and shrimp seeking shrimp, and the friends of big stars are also big stars?" Jiang Peiyao, who is still an 18th-tier unknown, is very envious of Zhao Liying who is now extremely popular.
She is not from a professional background, but every drama she stars in becomes a hit. She is the chosen one in the domestic entertainment industry.
As a so-called highly educated actress who took the postgraduate entrance examination for acting, she always feels complicated when she sees Zhao Liying.
"What do you think they are talking about? They are so happy?"
"How should I know? Given Gu Wei's personality, he will definitely invite Zhao Liying to have lunch with him. You can ask them about it then."
"Forget it, I don't dare.
I’m about to sign with Wei Ge’s company, and he’ll be my boss from now on. I have to learn to be more afraid of my boss’s flattery.”
After hearing what Jiang Peiyao said, Yang Zi turned around and looked at her in surprise.
"real?
That’s really good news. Congratulations, Pei Yao!
Regardless of other things, Gu Wei definitely has no shortage of film and television resources.
Moreover, the dramas produced by his company are particularly popular, from the earliest "Yu Zui" and "The Princess Weiyoung" to this year's "Eternal Love" and "Princess Agents".
Not to mention those who were already famous, many lesser-known artists became famous after starring in Gu Wei's company's dramas."
"I can't imagine a big star, I haven't graduated yet, I just hope I can keep getting roles in movies in the future."
