Chapter 206: Don't think I won't recognize you just because you put on clothes (Guaranteed 2-in-1)

Wei Ming rode his motorcycle to the Capital Airport at noon. Before going, he filled up the tank. This distance was not short, three hours back and forth. He hadn't ridden so far since buying the car.

After arriving, Wei Ming parked the car in the parking area according to the guidance. There were basically cars here. Wei Ming also saw a car with a British Union Jack flag, which should be the embassy's.

Is this to pick up some British big shot? Thatcher isn't falling down this year, right?

The place where the movie was filmed was the departure hall. The plot was the male lead sending his father away, mainly the father-son rival play between Zhu Shimao and Liu Qiong.

Wei Ming passed the message, and assistant director Huang Shuqin personally picked him up. After arriving, Xie Dao Jin didn't gossip about who the beautiful woman who answered the phone in the morning was.

He saw that Wei Ming was dressed very fashionably and looked like an elite, looking like someone who could afford an international flight, so he invited him to guest star as a passenger.

"No need to change clothes, no need to put on makeup, just carry a suitcase."

With the mentality of "since you're here," Wei Ming touched electricity for the first time, and his performance was also very natural.

In his previous life, because of his good image, he often guest-starred in his own works, but he couldn't be given close-ups and too many shots, which would easily make the audience misunderstand that this was an important role.

Xie Dao Jin obviously also knew this truth well, so he let Wei Ming mix in the crowd to act as a background board, with a flash-by shot for future fans to find fun.

Carrying a suitcase and walking in the hall, looking at the familiar scene, Wei Ming couldn't help but think of sending Melinda away at the beginning of the year. With the help of international student classmates, they completed that kissing farewell in public.

It had been less than half a year, and it felt like a lifetime ago. It was really sighing.

Wei Ming followed this scene three times. The first time was not ideal, the second time passed, the third time "keep another one," and then kill the scene!

The staff shook hands and congratulated each other. This was the first movie adapted from Wei Ming's novel, and it would also be the first to be released, which would further expand his personal influence. His name would be placed in a prominent position at the beginning of the film, and even before the director's name.

Although his original novel had extremely high popularity, with hundreds of thousands of sales in the first issue of the magazine and over a million in collected book sales, no matter how you calculate it, the number of readers was hard to break ten million.

But the movies of this era, and they were Xie Dao Jin's works, with high quality, the audience breaking one hundred million was almost a certainty, and the influence also exceeded literature.

Next, they prepared to return to the Yanjing Hotel to have a meal together. In this era, although there was no such thing as a "kill scene banquet," it was reasonable to eat something good after running thousands of miles to film a movie with the remaining budget. This was also a way to shape team cohesion.

When they left the departure hall, Wei Ming saw the embassy vehicles with the British flag parked at the pick-up entrance, three in total, lined up in a row, with airport security personnel arranged around them.

Soon a group of foreigners came out from inside, about six or seven people. The core leader was an old man with white hair, authentic London British flavor, looking like he was over eighty, but he looked quite energetic.

The rest should be accompanying personnel, and among these people, Wei Ming saw a bright red.

Although her long hair was coiled up, her edge was restrained, her clothes were elegant, high heels, black silk stockings, knee-length skirt, making her look more like a successful woman, but Wei Ming recognized her at a glance.

Don't think I won't recognize you just because you put on clothes!

The distance between the two wasn't far, and Melinda also saw Wei Ming. Wei Ming immediately waved his left arm silently to greet her.

He was still wearing the watch he exchanged with Melinda on his left hand, but Wei Ming couldn't see his Shanghai brand watch on Melinda's hand.

And Melinda glanced at his direction without any indication and got directly into the car.

Zhu Shimao, who was following Wei Ming, asked: "Writer Wei, why aren't you walking anymore?"

"Oh, nothing, how did you guys come here?"

"The crew rented a bus. Do you want to go with us?"

Wei Ming: "I came by motorcycle. Then I'll go first, see you at the Yanjing Hotel."

Then Wei Ming's motorcycle kept following the British embassy car, and he didn't know if Melinda had discovered him.

In the end, the car didn't stop at the embassy, but stopped at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, which was also a place Wei Ming couldn't enter.

This Melinda isn't working at a publishing company? Can the boss of a publishing company live in this kind of place?

The status of Diaoyutai now is very high, not an ordinary place where female stars can enter at will for birthdays in later generations. Those who can live here are basically political figures of various countries or entrepreneurs or celebrities with a certain political status.

After waiting for a long time, he didn't wait for Melinda to come out. However, this place shouldn't be stayed in for long. The guards here are all armed with live ammunition. Wei Ming, a ghost fire riding a motorcycle, would probably be caught if he lingered here for a long time, and might even be treated as a moving target.

He could only take one step first, but Wei Ming still felt a bit disappointed in his heart for not seeing Melinda, even though he already had Sister Lin now.

Well, men, eating from the pot, occupying the bowl, and thinking about the basin.

When he arrived at the Yanjing Hotel, they were waiting for him, and dinner began.

During the meal, Xie Dao Jin also revealed to everyone that the film would probably be released in December, and the next half year would be enough for post-production.

By December or November, *Popular Cinema* would probably use Zhu Shimao and Gong Xue as cover figures, or only Zhu Shimao, after all, he was the soul male lead.

Next, the main creators of the movie like the director would return to the Magic Capital. At the time of parting, Wei Ming handed a letter he had prepared to Xie Dao, asking him to pass it to Comrade Gong Xue.

Now there were only the two of them, Xie Jin smiled and joked: "Is this a breakup letter?"

"Xie Dao, what are you talking about? I just want to save some postage. I definitely wouldn't let others handle a breakup letter. If you are curious, you can tear it open and look."

Wei Ming's words denied the "breakup letter," and seemed to tacitly acknowledge his relationship with Gong Xue, but it seemed he didn't say anything. What a non-stick pan.

Coming out of the Yanjing Hotel, Wei Ming went straight home. When entering the courtyard, Old Sun stopped Wei Ming.

"Writer Wei, there is a package for you, from Hong Kong."

Another package and another remittance slip. Old Sun saw it. Writer Wei's overseas relations were very strong.

Wei Ming accepted it. He opened the door with full joy, but Sister Lin wasn't at home. He actually expected this early on.

After all, it was this era, cohabitation before marriage was quite a serious thing. In three years, it would probably be caught and sentenced. For the sake of everyone, even if Sister Lin comes in the future, it's unlikely she will stay overnight.

And her mother knows many people in her unit. If they check the accounts in the future and find that the daughter told the family she lived in the dormitory, told colleagues she lived at home, and as a result didn't live anywhere, that would be miserable.

Still have to say big sister, can restrain herself, unlike him, who knows the taste of the marrow, and wants to take off his clothes to calm down as soon as he returns home.

Taking off until only one piece was left, Wei Ming opened the package in the living room.

The things inside included tapes, novels, newspapers, paintings, and snacks that were not the same.

Wei Ming rarely ate snacks before, but he could let Sister Lin help consume them in the future.

The painting was *Black Cat Detective* drawn by Mao Mao Amin, but there was also a mouse on the painting.

At this time, Mickey Mouse and Jerry were definitely the two most famous mice in the world. Mao Mao Amin mischievously drew Mickey Mouse and Black Cat Detective on one painting, and also let Mickey Mouse scurry away. Wei Ming smiled knowingly, Disney lawyer letter warning.

The novel was Jin Yong's *The Deer and the Cauldron*. Maybe she felt Wei Ming liked martial arts novels, so she sent another set of Jin Yong's final work, and it was the version Jin Yong had just revised.

This was the classic version, known as the Sanlian version in the mainland. When a person gets old, he has to revise it again, which is the "newly revised version."

And the newspaper was *New Evening Post*, two copies. Wei Ming saw *The Terracotta Warrior* on it, and couldn't help but thump in his heart. Could it be that Mao Mao Amin and Old Ghost communicated?

The last tapes had two by Tan Tan Yonglin, *The Star* and *Crazy for You*, and another one had no label.

After reading these things, Wei Ming opened Mao Mao Amin's long letter and read it.

The little girl first talked about those few songs.

"I really like these three songs, especially the lyrics of *Water Flower*. My Mandarin is not very good, and this song is more suitable for male singers, so don't laugh at me when you hear my singing later."

Wei Ming picked up the tape without a label.

Mao Mao Amin also said: "There are also a few songs I sang on that tape. I am in our school choir. You are lucky."

It turned out she recorded the songs she sang. The little girl was quite confident.

He didn't listen immediately and continued to read.

"The other two tapes were given to you by PolyGram. They are Tan Tan Yonglin's first and second Cantonese albums. You should have heard them. They gave them to you as a souvenir, which shows how much they appreciate your three songs."

"And because *The Girl You Like* became popular all over Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan, and has the strength to impact the Gold Record, the price PolyGram gave you is also high. They gave 9,000 Hong Kong dollars for three songs. 6,000 was remitted to you, and 2,100 was clipped in the book."

This is the benefit of being a well-known musician, especially A Ming, who is good at both lyrics and music.

Of course, Mao Mao Amin took 10% of the commission, but she basically spent it on mailing packages to Wei Ming. She also detailed her experience of going to PolyGram with her mother to sell songs.

"The other party thought I wanted to be a singer. Listen and you'll know, my singing is really good, and I look quite pretty. It's normal for them to think so. But mother didn't agree, she said studies are paramount."

This paragraph hides Mao Mao Amin's probing. Before, A Ming didn't have any curiosity about her appearance. Now that she said so, she didn't believe he wouldn't care.

But Wei Ming really didn't care. He just wanted to give a thumbs up to Mao Mao Amin's mother. What kind of entertainment circle are you mixing in at such a young age?

Afterwards, Mao Mao Amin talked about *Black Cat Detective* again. She was very curious about what kind of fairy tales Wei Ming wrote. Between the lines, there were two words: "want to see."

Alright, this age is the age to read fairy tales. Wei Ming decided to arrange it.

Mao Mao Amin: "You should like martial arts novels, so I'll send you a set of *The Deer and the Cauldron*. After all, I didn't earn less, but I prefer the story called *The Terracotta Warrior* recently, so I'll send it to you together. Because I was in a hurry to report to you about selling songs, there are only two issues, haha, you just wait a bit longer, I will send the rest to you in the next communication."

Wei Ming didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. Zhou Huimin happened to see his novel. Because the romance concentration was very high, the little girl was deeply fascinated by this setting of the story of the past and present life.

"A Ming, have you ever been in love? Is there a feeling that you want to be with her in the next life?"

Mao Mao Amin had the posture of an ignorant student asking a social person about love topics. In fact, she just wanted to figure out A Ming's love history. After all, the love songs she wrote were too classic.

Wei Ming thought about it, and there really wasn't. He liked freshness and was willing to try new things. Anyway, none of the women in his previous life had the idea of coming again. It might also be that the feelings were not deep enough. It was just that he didn't know how these few in this life were.

Finally, Mao Mao Amin also asked Wei Ming for advice on questions related to the Terracotta Warriors. Because of this novel, a Terracotta Warrior fever broke out in her class, but everyone could only see relevant information from the news.

Mainland, Xi'an, this was too far for Hong Kong middle school students.

But it was a coincidence. As the author of this novel, he had been to the Terracotta Warriors and took photos. He would choose one to mail to her later. After all, she helped a lot by sending money this time. In the future, she could be regarded as a long-term cooperative partner. Wei Ming even considered telling her his identity as "Wei the Madman" and let her act as his agent to publish novels in Hong Kong in the future.

After reading this long letter, Wei Ming put Mao Mao Amin's tape into the recorder. First was the song *Water Flower*.

Although the tune wasn't very standard and the Mandarin wasn't very standard, the voice was quite beautiful, feeling like a sweet girl.

Next was an English song, *Yesterday Once More* by the Carpenters.

Didn't expect there to be piano accompaniment this time.

This was recorded by Mao Mao Amin playing and singing alone at home. Although both the piano sound and the singing were slightly immature, she had sung this song countless times, and the proficiency was far beyond *Water Flower*. In Wei Ming's view, it was already at the level of participating in a campus singer competition, worthy of a little red flower.

Behind were covers of Hong Kong and Taiwan songs like *Olive Tree*, *Changes*, *Beijing Spring Dream*, etc., and all had piano accompaniment. The playing wasn't very good, it should be a beginner, but the girl loved playing very much.

Overall, Cantonese songs were sung more silkily. After all, she grew up listening to them. Although it was a bit far-fetched to say she was a singer now, with her not-bad vocal conditions, plus acquired practice, maybe she could really succeed.

Wei Ming thought about it and started to write back to Mao Mao Amin.

Forget it, let's write one back to Old Ghost too, and chat about his business plan by the way. After all, he also invested money in it.

The next day Wei Ming was still thinking about Melinda in his mind, and went to Diaoyutai to try his luck at noon, but didn't see Melinda.

!

Wei Ming almost gave up, but the situation took a turn for the better.

In the afternoon, when he returned to the school journal office, Yang Hao asked Wei Ming: "There is a celebrity lecture in the library in a while, do you want to go and take a few photos with me."

"What celebrity?"

"The principal of Oxford University."

Wei Ming wasn't very interested, and Yang Hao added: "And this principal was once the British Prime Minister."

Once a Prime Minister, and also the principal of the first university in the UK, Wei Ming had some interest.

Finally, Yang Hao said: "It seems he is also a capitalist. Their family opened a publishing company, and he is the chairman, called something Macmillan."

Yang Hao was reading from the data. After Wei Ming heard it, he was startled and hurriedly asked for the data.

This person was named Harold, surnamed Macmillan, a Londoner born in the 1990s, a World War I veteran, served as British Prime Minister in the late 1950s, served as Oxford principal during his tenure, and held the title of Earl.

In addition, there was the family business Macmillan Publishers, which had a history of more than a hundred years and was a world-famous international publishing institution, and also the main publisher of English teaching books.

And Wei Ming vaguely remembered hearing the black girl Susan talk about it a while ago. Melinda currently worked at Macmillan Publishers in the UK.

It's connected, it's all connected!

No wonder she could live in Diaoyutai. The status of that old man was indeed enough.

Wei Ming got up and said: "What are you still stunned for, let's go!"

The two came to the library. Macmillan's visit to Peking University this time was first to donate some original English books, totaling 10,000, basically all classics, as well as books on English learning.

After arriving, Wei Ming and Yang Hao first found the person in charge of the library and got the list of donated books. Wei Ming accidentally saw *Jumanji* in it.

This should be his book, the name was discussed by him and Melinda together.

Afterwards, they came to the venue. The students had already gathered. Today, Harold's main identity was the principal of Oxford University, so almost all the students who came to listen to the lecture were students who aspired to study abroad, not just Peking University, but also Tsinghua University.

Since social dancing was banned, only this kind of celebrity lecture could make students from the two universities visit each other so actively.

Not long after, the speaker Harold Macmillan took the stage. He was already 86 years old this year, but he could go on stage without anyone helping him. However, a red-haired woman followed behind him. This was his translator for today.

Although those who could come to listen to the lecture basically had a certain level of English, the English level of college students at this time was stronger in reading and writing than in listening and speaking, so a translator was still very necessary.

And seeing Melinda, not only was Yang Hao beside Wei Ming very excited, but many students from the Chinese and foreign language departments in the audience were also a bit restless. Although the dressing style had changed, many people still recognized this British international student who was once known to everyone because of Wei Ming.

Cha Jianying was also at the scene. She had already clarified her goal of studying in the US. At this moment, she looked at Melinda on the stage and then at Wei Ming on the side, her eyes quite playful.

Xiao Cha was thinking of rekindling old feelings, while Wei Ming was thinking about whether he brought money.

Wei Ming had always wanted to find an opportunity to approach Melinda, even if he couldn't talk, at least pass a small note, right?

As a result, there were bodyguards around the old man, Wei Ming couldn't get close at all, and Melinda didn't mean to find him actively.

So Wei Ming didn't persist anymore. Let's forget each other in the rivers and lakes.

After Macmillan and his party left by car, Wei Ming also rode his motorcycle away. He had a date with Sister Lin tonight.

"I'm going home today." Sister Lin tucked her hair behind her ears.

Wei Ming: "Just eating, I'll send you back to your parents' place after eating, is that okay?"

Although knowing that a man's promise is like a handful of scattered sand, which scatters as soon as the wind blows, Zhu Lin still got on his car.

Today is to eat at Old Mo, the reason is: "I sold three more songs in Hong Kong recently, it's worth being happy."

Zhu Lin: "I hope to hear your new songs soon. My parents are already your fans."

Wei Ming smiled: "They are Zhang Mingmin's fans."

"That's not it, my dad specifically praised the person who wrote the song."

Arriving at the place, the two just sat down, Wei Ming suddenly saw acquaintances, and more than one.

Not far from them, Liu Zhenyun and Guo Jianmei were eating, and they were almost finished.

Didn't expect this iron rooster Bai Bai Lao Liu to treat his girlfriend to dinner in this kind of place. This could be considered a big bleeding, spending more than a table in the Long March Canteen.

"What are you looking at?" Zhu Lin asked.

"A friend from the Peking University Chinese Department, and one from the Law Department. I'll go over and say hello in a while."

Zhu Lin was obviously a bit nervous, worried about how they would guess the relationship between her and Wei Ming.

Wei Ming finished ordering first and was about to go over to say hello, but Liu Zhenyun had already seen Wei Ming first. Seeing Wei Ming was like seeing a life-saving straw.

"Meizi, sit for a while, I'll be right back."

Guo Jianmei was worried. He wouldn't throw her here to wash dishes to pay back the money, right?

Just finished eating, the two looked at the price on the menu and found that it exceeded the money Liu Zhenyun brought.

Guo Jianmei had expected it long ago. She didn't think about letting Liu Zhenyun pay alone, just make up for the lack. As a result, she just found that she didn't bring her wallet. That small cloth bag wallet was left in the dormitory because she changed clothes.

So the situation now was a bit awkward.

Guo Jianmei followed the direction Liu Zhenyun left and saw Wei Ming, and immediately felt relieved. She also saw a beautiful girl sitting opposite Wei Ming, and couldn't help but brighten her eyes. It was so pleasing to the eye even from a distance.

Writer Wei has finally walked out of the previous relationship?

"Bai Bai Lao Liu, this is Comrade Zhu Lin, a former colleague of Sister Mu Rong, and also my good friend."

Zhu Lin: Oh, a good friend, right.

"Xiao Lin, let me introduce you. This is my friend at Peking University, the talented Liu Zhenyun of the 78 Chinese Department of Peking University, Bai Bai Lao Liu."

Zhu Lin: Xiao Lin? She was quite satisfied with this title.

Liu Zhenyun waved his hand: "Talented person dare not be, dare not be. I rely on Wei Ming to eat. He writes novels, I write his novel review articles, but recently he hasn't had any movement for a long time, and my hands are tight, not enough money to eat."

Not bringing enough money to treat a girl to dinner, and having to admit it in front of a woman as beautiful as Zhu Lin, even a thick-skinned person like Liu Zhenyun was a bit blushing.

Wei Ming hurriedly stuffed ten yuan over: "Is it enough?"

"Enough, actually just a little bit short, it was really careless. Then I won't disturb the two." Liu Zhenyun got the money and immediately settled the bill, then brought Guo Jianmei over to get to know each other.

Guo Jianmei: Looking closer, she is even more beautiful, a very atmospheric look, Wei Ming has good luck.

It's just that she looks older, it is estimated that she can hold a gold brick?

Zhu Lin: Three gold bricks, I accept, I accept.

Walking out of the door of Old Mo, Guo Jianmei immediately started gossiping.

"What is the relationship between that sister and Wei Ming?"

Liu Zhenyun: "Wei Ming said it's a relationship of good friends."

"Good friends can treat to such an expensive restaurant?" Guo Jianmei didn't believe it anyway. She asked again, "Then how did you introduce me?"

Liu Zhenyun: "Classmate."

Guo Jianmei: Are all men like this? Then it seems that this "good friend" is definitely not limited to indirect kissing!

Although a bit awkward, the food was really delicious, but eating once a year is about enough, it's too extravagant.

Returning to the South Gate of Peking University, the two saw someone riding a motorcycle out, it seemed to be a woman with a good figure, but wearing a helmet, she couldn't see her appearance.

Mei Wenhua waved at Melinda who rode away his motorcycle: I am too righteous, just for this, Wei Ming must kowtow to me!

I am simply worthy of enjoying the temple!
