Chapter 526: Preparing for Departure
Before I went to Bangkok, I always thought I didn't have such a thing.
Cause?
The reason is simple, I have always been a very kind person.
Whether it is talking or doing things, as long as I do the things I have explained, then there will be things that should be given, whether it is a salary increase or a promotion.
If people like me are not kind, then what kind of people are kind?
In my memory, the only time I wanted to lose my temper was when I was filming in Bangkok.
It's just that the work is not going well and the surrounding environment is not very good, so my face is a little worse, I don't know that because of this, the employees of our company actually gave me the nickname of 'black-faced evil star' in private, and I still feel that I am quite wronged......
ββExcerpt from an interview with Li Mo
According to the assistant director revealed to a friend afterwards, when he reported to Li Mo that Tong Liya was not in the hotel, Li Mo not only had a face as heavy as water, his eyes were like copper bells, but his fists were clenched......
If it weren't for Tong Liya's assistant who ran out to report the ins and outs of the whole matter to Li Mo at this time, he even doubted that Li Mo would have fired him directly......
In Li Mo's opinion, his performance is already restrained enough.
Although the total cost of "Detective Chinatown" is as high as 130 million yuan, even if it is put into a domestic movie, it can be regarded as a big production, but the money really spent on the actors' salaries is not very much.
Except for Wang Baoqiang, who took advantage of the east wind of "Thai Embarrassment", he barely stepped into the level of the end of the first line and gave a salary of 10 million, the other leading actors are either movie newcomers or Molong Media's own artists, and the salaries of all the other leading actors add up to about 5 million......
In fact, there is not much money spent on group performances, especially the local group performances in Bangkok, at most hundreds of thousands, and more money is actually spent on hotel accommodation, catering consumption and scene construction.
But this sudden 'red and yellow confrontation' completely disrupted Li Mo's plan.
Money is a trivial matter, anyway, with the current scale of Molong Media, even if it loses a "Detective Chinatown", it will not be able to break your muscles and bones and get up, not to mention that it is not a shame to interrupt filming for this reason, but if the crew members are physically injured while interrupting filming, it is not just a matter of money.
"Don't panic first, since the matter has happened, it's useless for you to be in a hurry, first sort out your thoughts and explain the ins and outs of the matter to me well. β
Adjusting his facial expression, Li Mo tried his best to adjust the expression on his face before Tong Liya's assistant spoke, and Li then asked.
"Director Li, here's how it ......"
According to the assistant, Tong Liya's acceptance of the local diet in Bangkok has plummeted because she is in her menstrual period these days, and in order to maintain her condition during the filming of the crew, she has been solving the problem of meals outside in the past few days.
At the beginning of the first few times, the assistant also accompanied her to go, who knew that even the assistant sister happened to be visiting relatives today, plus after a few days of travel, Tong Liya's journey from the hotel to the restaurant was also familiar, so only today at noon, the assistant chose to stay in the hotel and let Tong Liya go out alone.
At the beginning, although Tong Liya had not come back, but nothing happened on the streets of Bangkok, the assistant waited for a while and then went back to his room to rest because she was unwell, who knew that when she woke up, she found that it was past dinner time, which she was already a little anxious......
In this case, it is naturally impossible to hide it without a person, and after thinking about it for a long time, Tong Liya's assistant can only find Li Mo after all, and tell the ins and outs of the matter......
"Woooooooooo......oo Director Li, you should think of a way, I'm ...... I'm worried that something will happen to Sister Yaya. β
Damn, you can't speak......
Tong Liya is your food and clothing parents, and she will have accidents at every turn......
Li Mo was already upset, and when he looked at the crying little assistant, he felt even more speechless.
"That...... Don't worry, we're already in contact with the embassy and can ask them about the situation, and at this time, the state will definitely not ignore it. β
"Also, you've been talking for a long time, and you haven't said the names of the restaurants that Sister Yaya frequents......"
"Oh, I'm sorry, Director Li, I panicked and forgot. The little assistant wiped his tears and slowly counted them with his fingers, "Yawei Zhai, Chunfeng Building, Huaiyang Restaurant......"
I'll go, this shouldn't be a fat Di wearing Tong Liya's skin.
It's only been a few days, and she's almost eaten all the restaurants in Chinatown......
After comforting the little assistant who was about to cry after holding back the idea of complaining, Li Mo called several assistant directors of the crew and the heads of each behind-the-scenes module together, and asked them to appease their subordinates to stay in the hotel honestly and wait for the notice from the embassy, while Li Mo found a few staff members who looked more like locals, and went out separately towards the restaurants just now.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the twilight of the night, Li Mo and several staff members of the crew went straight to Chinatown after separating at the door of the hotel.
Fortunately, the crew members all live in a hotel, and as long as the makeup artist and costume artist touch up a little, Li Mo can be changed immediately.
With their joint efforts, even if Zong Shuai or Fat Di and others would face Li Mo face to face, it is estimated that they may not be able to recognize him at a glance.
There is no way, in just over an hour, the situation on the streets of Bangkok has shown a trend of getting worse and worse.
When the crew came back by car just now, it was still dark, even if there were gangsters mixed in with the demonstrators who wanted to do something unspeakable, they didn't dare to make a mistake because there were more pedestrians on the street, and when Li Mo and the others went out just now, they found that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road......
Correspondingly, the number of people wearing red or yellow shirts is increasing.
In this case, a person with obvious racial characteristics like Li Mo is almost as obvious as a frog in a toad......
Although in Li Mo's memory, the target of this 'red and yellow confrontation' is the two major strata of the political circles of the Kingdom of Thailand, and it seems that there is no situation of anti-Chinese xenophobia, but I am not afraid of 10,000, just in case, most of the people who are coerced by political slogans and the herd effect are irrational.
"Damn, is this the backlash brought about by robbing Cheng Sicheng's works?" Looking at the darker and darker sky, Li Mo spat hatefully, "Labor and management still don't believe it, making a movie can still make so many bad things." β
