It was not until this time that Erdongzi's strength as the first group leader of Hengdian was revealed.

In less than a day, more than 20 groups with different characteristics were all gathered, tall, short, fat and thin, men, women and children, everything.

More than 20 people were sitting in Jinyiwei, and it was still raining lightly outside, and the slender sixth brother stretched his neck and shouted: "Take tea, take cigarettes." ”

Sister Lu was eating melon seeds on the counter, without raising her eyelids, Zhou Jin ran out of the back kitchen with a teapot, "Here, here." Then he poured tea from table to table.

Chen Yang followed, placing a plate of peanuts and a plate of melon seeds on a table.

Sister Lu spit out a mouthful of melon seed shells and said, "Erdongzi, you can hurry up, this is a restaurant, not a teahouse." ”

Erdongzi was looking at the information with Guan Hu, and when he heard it, he said: "Look at your stingy appearance, let's do it at noon at your private venue, although the food and drink are good, this Guan guide pays." ”

"That's good, four hundred for a table. ”

More than 20 people, a total of five tables, counting two thousand, Guan Hu was startled and said: "We will be fine soon, soon be fine." ”

Everyone laughed, and the sixth brother pulled Zhou Jin and said, "Zhou Jin, what's the origin of this director, so picky?"

Zhou Jin looked at the director's dress, half-worn jeans, covered with a black leather jacket, a beige woven hat buttoned on his bare head, and a few short whiskers on his chin, which looked a little shabby.

So he whispered: "I guess it's not picking, it's really no money." ”

The sixth brother is bald, with a face full of meat, as long as he is on the camera, he will play the bad guy's buddy, and said: "You don't care if he picks it or not, as long as the play is good, it doesn't matter if the money is less." ”

Zhou Jin gave a thumbs up and looked at people's consciousness.

"This is Li Li, Brother Li, who used to mix in other groups, and recently turned to Brother Dong, this is Zhou Jin, Brother Jin. The sixth brother knew that Zhou Jin didn't know him, so he introduced him.

"Brother Jin takes care of it. Li Li stood up and shook hands with Zhou Jin.

Zhou Jin hurriedly said: "Don't call me brother, just call Zhou Jin." ”

The sixth brother said: "Brother Jin used to play a big match in a large crew, and not long after it was completed, he received a movie again, but it's amazing." ”

squeezing his eyebrows, he looks very exaggerated.

Zhou Jin didn't know if the sixth brother was flattering or squeezing, but he was very annoyed by this, so he made an excuse and slipped away.

Er Dongzi was discussing the shooting time with Guan Hu, and Zhou Jin took the opportunity to pour water and leaned over to listen.

"It's definitely not okay to photograph the wax moon, first, it's too cold, and secondly, my brothers are away all the year round, just waiting for the New Year to go home. ”

Guan Hu looked at the teacup that was filled by Zhou Jin, took a big sip, and said: "Otherwise, I will try to put the scene with a lot of people in front of the filming, and after filming, some people can leave in advance, and some stay." ”

Er Dongzi nodded and said: "That's it, then let's talk about the salary again, the low temperature subsidy, and in case of snow, we have to calculate the money separately......"

said that he took a pen to write notes in a notebook, although Er Dongzi was a little rough, but he was very delicate.

Guan Hu took a moment and smiled at Zhou Jin: "I think this Mr. Dong is really condescending, just his meticulous appearance, he will not lose a producer." ”

Zhou Jin pondered for a moment and said, "You say that, are you appointing him to be a producer?"

Er Dongzi, formerly known as Dong Dongqiang, said angrily: "Let's be a villain first, then a gentleman, negotiate all these things, no matter how difficult it is for the crew, we will support it to the end." ”

Guan Hu thought for a while and said, "It's done." "Anyway, let's fool you to the crew first.

After a few rounds of arguing, it was finally determined, plus Zhou Jin, a total of five big specials, the kind that shows their faces and has lines, others who can show their faces are considered medium specials, and those who don't show their faces are considered small specials.

There are also some working hours, rain and snow, overtime pay, etc., which are listed in the contract in detail.

Basically, Erdongzi was writing, Guan Hu was a little patient at first, but then he was annoyed and took a casual look, "That's it." ”

He is a sixth-generation director, if it weren't for the poor crew, or because the assistant director and producer were not around, he wouldn't have to worry about these things at all.

"That's it, if there is a problem, let's settle it. ”

Erdongzi made the final decision, and more than 20 people shouted in a seven, seven, eight or eight manner, "No problem", "I can trust Brother Dong", "Brother Dong is what he says".

Seeing that the matter was over, Guan Hu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I have to go to the set in advance, handle it properly, and then notify you to come over." ”

"When?"

"At the end of the month. Guan Hu picked up an old-fashioned military backpack and prepared to leave.

Sister Lu can be regarded as having finished eating all the melon seeds, and said in the back: "Who will settle my tea money?"

Guan Hu pretended not to hear it, ran into the rain, and Erdongzi said: "It's all on the books, and I will come often in the future." ”

"Brother Dong, aren't we going to the old place of Three Streets?" someone asked.

"the fart. ”

"I know, it must be because Sister-in-law Dong is back......"

"You know a......"

Erdongzi scolded and left with a group of people, leaving melon seed shells and peanut shells all over the ground.

"Chen Yang, sweep the ground. ”

"Zhou Jin, clean up the table. ”

"It's all Mariel, we're going to pick up customers soon. ”

Sister Lu stood behind the counter, vigorously directing the two of them to work.

Zhou Jin is quite strange, could it be that Sister Lu's ideal is to open a hotel? I didn't see her so active when I opened a homestay before.

Sister Lu took the account book and wrote down Er Dongzi's arrears, and said casually: "Zhou Jin, I'm ready to take on a new play, don't you plan to take a break?"

"Didn't I rest for a few days, and I was in a panic. ”

"This time I'm going to Dongshan Province, have you ever been to Dongshan?"

Zhou Jin thought for a while and said, "I have passed by a few times on the train before, but I have never gone down. ”

He really has never been to Dongshan, and his impression of Dongshan is basically from Dongshan TV.

So I subconsciously felt that Dongshan, well, rustic in the soil, as if it was a junction between urban and rural areas, was full of big pancakes and big steamed buns every day.

Zhou Jin is not a map cannon, there is no way, Dongshan TV gives people the impression that this is the case.

"Then let's go over, we won't eat steamed buns with pickles every day, right?" Chen Yang said suddenly.

Sister Lu said: "You can buy some snacks to bring over, buy more and distribute them to the people in the crew, they will take more care of you if they eat people with short mouths." ”

This is a good word, Zhou Jin has been in the crew for so long, and he has figured out a set of social methods for the old godmother, and when eating, the old godmother is almost invincible.

But a bottle of old godmother, at most, can make others not hate you, and it is difficult to brush up on favorability.

Maybe it's time for something else?

Now Zhou Jin's savings are a little more than 20,000 yuan, if there is filming, food and accommodation are in the crew, and the expenses are not large, so it may be a good choice to invest a little money now and buy people's hearts.

So in the next few days, Zhou Jin and Chen Yang went their separate ways, in addition to buying all the winter clothes for the two of them, they also bought a large box of snacks.

Chen Yang's pocket is cleaner than his face, and of course the money is from Zhou Jin.

"Brother Jin, don't worry, when I pay my salary, I will definitely pay you back. Although Chen Yang was a little skinny, he also knew that Zhou Jin had spent a lot of money to buy him clothes, so he patted his chest and said that he was angry.

Zhou Jin didn't bother to pay attention to him, "Eat your dumplings, your little salary won't make a sound." ”

At the end of December, Erdongzi booked a train ticket to Dongshan Province, got on the train the night before, and arrived the next morning.

The night before departure, Sister Lu asked Jinyiwei to cook a large pot of dumplings in the back kitchen and distributed them to Zhou Jin and Chen Yang.

"Have you packed everything up? Don't pull anything down. Sister Lu brought two plates of vinegar and asked.

Zhou Jin said: "It's all cleaned up, and I have tidied up the room, and after we leave, you can rent it out again." ”

Sister Lu sat on the side and said casually: "It's the off-season, and the room can't be rented out at all, will you come back after filming?"

"Go back, don't go back. Chen Yang snorted and ate dumplings.

Zhou Jin didn't speak, he knew what Sister Lu meant.

"I'll keep that room for you, remember to call when you're fine." ”

"Hmm. Zhou Jin snorted.

He thought about it for a moment, and felt that he really had nowhere else to go.

Go to his cheap sister Zhou Lin? Forget it, Zhou Jin doesn't have the courage to face her until now, so it is better to come back and face Sister Lu.

"Quick, ...... while it's hot" Sister Lu chuckled and pushed the vinegar dish to the side of Zhou Jin's bowl.

"I've watched Guan Hu's TV series before, he is a very capable director, you study hard in the crew, leave a good impression, and maybe you won't worry about filming in the future. Sister Lu advised.

"Hmm. Zhou Jin lowered his head and ate dumplings.

Occasionally look out the window, the street lights outside have been lit, and the rain is continuous, ticking.

The south always likes to rain, and people's emotions are also continuous.

Maybe it's because I have a small restaurant of my own? Although I only have a 30% stake, I have a sense of belonging?

Zhou Jin can only think so.
