Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 340 Director Wang, this is not possible for you
"Sir, your caviar with Icelandic trout and lobster bisque."

"OK, thanks."

In the matte black exquisite stone bowl, the plump lobster meat glows attractively under the light. The orange-red soup with cream and cheese is scooped into the bowl, with a silky and thick texture.

"Sister Ou, give it a try." Meng Bai pushed the bowl over. "The lobster soup in this restaurant is known as a must-try specialty, and it has received a lot of praise."

"Thank you, Mr. Meng."

Wang Ou had a gentle smile on his face. He thanked Meng Bai, picked up the spoon and took a sip. He immediately felt a delicious taste bursting in his mouth.

"Well, it's worthy of being a specialty dish. It tastes really good." She looked around at the almost full seats in the store. "The dishes in this restaurant taste pretty good. No wonder the business is so good."

"Grillmarkaurinn is one of the most popular restaurants in Reykjavik. Of course, the taste is only part of the reason why this restaurant is so popular. The main reason is because of this."

Meng Bai pointed outside the window, and Wang Ou looked in the direction he pointed curiously. A cathedral shaped like a normal distribution came into view.

This is equivalent to opening a restaurant opposite the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City. No matter how expensive the prices are, there will definitely be no shortage of customers.

"Teacher Meng is very familiar with Iceland." Wang Ou said with a smile.

"What do you mean familiar? This is my first time here." Meng Bai said casually, "I just checked the guide online when I booked the restaurant this afternoon."

Wang Ou couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this. According to her previous experience, men in this kind of situation would usually say something like "I'll fly over occasionally to try the seasonal specialties". In short, they would just pretend to be cool.

Unexpectedly, Meng Bai did not follow the routine at all.

But then again, in a sense this is also a kind of confidence.

While eating, Meng Bai asked casually, "Sister Ou, what are you guys here to film?"

"A modern urban drama called "There Are Always Butterflies Flying Over the Ocean," Wang Ou introduced.

"This name sounds a bit like the style of the sadomasochistic idol dramas from ten years ago."

"Haha, don't mention it, the plot is really in the style you described."

Wang Ou smiled and introduced the general plot. In summary, the male protagonist, who is middle-aged and has a bad career, fails in his second venture abroad, and then unexpectedly meets the female protagonist. The two of them keep fighting, separate and reconcile, and finally have a happy ending.

The role played by Wang Ou is the heroine, a young girl named Chuchu, who is dedicated to finding a special butterfly that can fly across the ocean in fairy tales.

Judging from the character image and background setting, this drama is probably about a love story between an uncle and a girl.

But how should I put it, there is nothing wrong with the uncle, but the girl...

Wang Ou saw Meng Bai's strange look and immediately said with some embarrassment: "What are you looking at? I am at least a dozen years younger than Teacher Wu. Am I not considered a girl?"

"Yes, of course." Meng Bai said insincerely, "Anyone who comes to see Sister Ou, you have just turned eighteen, a complete girl."

"..."

Hearing Meng Bai's teasing, Wang Ou couldn't help but blush. It was really awkward for a 25-year-old and 120-month-old mature lady to play a young girl.

But there is no way, for a middle-aged actress like her, this is the way she acts in the industry.

There are not many roles suitable for middle-aged women, and they are basically dominated by the first-tier big stars. Second-tier and third-tier actresses like her either have to pretend to be young and play a girl, or have to play old and play a mother.

In comparison, Wang Ou is still lucky. At least she had played two representative roles, "Wang Manchun" and "Qin Banruo", which greatly increased her popularity.

At that time, "The Disguiser" and "Nirvana in Fire" were broadcast one after another, and the leading actors were very popular. She also took the opportunity to take on many suitable scripts and roles.

It’s a pity that the following dramas were not very popular or performed well, and basically made no splash.

In addition, she has no company team and has always worked alone. She has not been able to keep up with the marketing and resources, which has caused her popularity to gradually fade away.

Even her most popular work in the past two years is the variety show "Star Detective". In it, she attracted a wave of fans with her temperamental and changeable image of a queen.

Another one is this year's "Day and Night Chase". Although the role of "Forensic Sister" Gao Yanan is the second female lead, her character is very outstanding, which makes her more stable.

Whether it is "The Great Detective" or "Day and Night Chase", or even "The Disguiser" that made her famous, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are all written by Meng Bai.

When she was chatting with Song Zhi before, she half-jokingly said that she was also "made famous" by your teacher Meng.

Thinking of this, Wang Ou raised his glass lightly and looked at Meng Bai with a moving look in his eyes: "Teacher Meng, I have always wanted to thank you but never had the chance. It is rare that we can meet in a foreign country today. Isn't it worth a drink for this fate?"

"Of course." Meng Bai picked up the cup, "Let's celebrate our meeting after 7777 kilometers."

The straight-line distance between the centers of China and Iceland is 7777 kilometers, a magical number.

They drank, ate and chatted until after ten o'clock in the evening, when their date came to an end.

"Well."

As soon as he went out, a chilly wind rushed in. Wang Ou, who had just drunk a lot of wine, couldn't help but groan and staggered.

Fortunately, Meng Bai was quick and reached out to steady her.

"I'd better take you back." Meng Bai held Wang Ou's arm, "Don't wake up tomorrow morning and see the news about a missing Chinese woman."

Wang Ou naturally would not refuse, and said thank you with a rosy face.

The two waited on the roadside for a while, but no taxi came. The Didi on their mobile phone currently had no service in Iceland.

Fortunately, Wang Ou and his crew were staying in a hotel not far away, so it only took 20 minutes to walk back. The two of them did not stand there in the cold, but walked forward while keeping an eye out for taxis.

Iceland is located at a high latitude, with long nights. In order to ward off the cold, people still drink alcohol, so the nightlife here is very lively.

Energetic young people walked out of their homes in groups of three or five, and the bars and nightclubs on both sides of the street were bustling with people.

The carnival here often starts at midnight. People who come out to party will visit four or five stores in one night and will not end until before dawn the next day.

Wang Ou was only wearing a coat when he came out. He felt a little cold at this time and subconsciously moved closer to Meng Bai.

Meng Bai looked down at her and said nothing. Instead, he pulled his coat up a little and covered her with his hand to block out the cold.

Seen from behind, the two looked like a couple hugging each other.

However, their actions were not conspicuous at all, because the entire street was almost full of men and women cuddling each other to keep warm. Wang Ou was a little uncomfortable at first, after all, whether from Li Yitong or Song Zhi's perspective, Meng Bai was considered a "best friend's boyfriend", and he was a little uncomfortable.

What's more, although Meng Bai's status in the circle is much higher than hers, he is still younger than her. It always feels strange to be held in the arms of a boy who is so much younger than you for the first time.

But soon as the alcohol took effect, she stopped thinking about it.

Anyway, we were in a foreign country, almost halfway around the world. The distance in space also cut off the restrictions on interpersonal relationships.

The two walked silently along the exotic street. A taxi passed slowly by them, but both of them tacitly did not say a word.

After walking for more than twenty minutes, the two finally arrived at the hotel.

"Here it is." Wang Ou put away his phone and said with a smile, "Thanks to AutoNavi, I can actually use navigation even when I'm abroad."

"Yeah, otherwise it would be quite troublesome to come back." Meng Bai had already let go of the other person and put his hands in his coat pockets.

Looking at the man in front of him, Wang Ou paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and said under the influence of alcohol: "Teacher Meng, why don't you go up and sit for a while. Have a cup of hot water and warm yourself up."

Her voice was trembling a little. Although she didn't say it explicitly, the invitation in this situation was obviously mixed with other meanings.

Anyway, it's abroad, no one will know. Besides, Meng Bai is not a good man who keeps his chastity, so one more person is not too much.

Wang Ou comforted himself in his heart.

Meng Bai naturally understood the other party's implied meaning. Looking at the bright and charming lady in front of him, he naturally agreed without much hesitation.

The two of them went upstairs silently. Perhaps because they were worried about being seen by the crew, Wang Ou deliberately kept a distance from them.

Fortunately, I didn't run into anyone else until I entered the room.

"clatter."

With a crisp sound of a switch, the room suddenly became bright.

"I'll get you a glass of hot water."

"Thank you."

After taking a sip of hot water and the hot air from the air conditioner, Meng Bai finally felt warm from the inside out.

On the other side, Wang Ou also put down the cup in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

We are all adults and understand each other's meaning. There is no need to be extra pretentious.

Meng Bai pushed Wang Ou against the wall, then lowered his head and kissed him.

Coats, sweaters, jeans...

Pieces of clothes fell to the ground one by one, and Meng Bai's hands gently stroked the fair and smooth skin.

"Humph!"

Finally, with a muffled groan from Wang Ou, the battle began.

……

Compared to Qin Lan, although Wang Ou is also an older sister, her personality is obviously more passive and full of gentle temperament.

So in the past few days, Meng Bai almost always took the initiative in the rhythm.

"Director Wang, being a gentle older sister is not your style."

After another battle, Meng Bai raised his hand and hooked Wang Ou's chin, saying teasingly.

The queen who was lazily lying on the bed gave him a coquettish look, her whole body full of charm after satisfaction.

These days, I have to shoot during the day and interact at night, so I don’t have the energy to take the initiative.

"How many more days will your crew take to shoot?" Meng Bai asked casually.

"It's only two or three days." Wang Ou lay lazily beside him, "What about you? When are you leaving?"

"tomorrow."

"Yeah."

Wang Ou was silent for a while, but did not say anything to persuade him to stay.

She knew in her heart that this was just an episode after the two of them met by chance in a foreign country. When they left here, they would resume their previous relationship.

At most, I can revisit it when the opportunity is right.

He glanced at Meng Bai, and it was obvious that the other party knew this better than he did, and there was no change in his emotions at all.

That's right, men and women are different after all. Men can have desires without emotions, but women's desires and emotions often go hand in hand.

I say that this is just a few days of romance in a foreign country, but deep down, I have many more thoughts in my mind.

only……

Looking at Meng Bai's handsome but calm face, Wang Ou suddenly became a little angry. She gritted her teeth and stood up, sitting on Meng Bai for the first time in a few days.

"There's only one day left, so take the initiative to show this little brother today."

Wang Ou thought viciously in his heart.

Meng Bai was startled by her sudden action, but he reacted in an instant. He smiled and began to cooperate with her.

Unfortunately, the elder sister only lasted for a while. Within five minutes, she was suppressed again.

Obviously, "Director Wang" is ultimately no match for her creator.
