Chapter 553: After the Finale

"Attention departments, check the set one last time!"

On the set of "Detective Chinatown", in a room rebuilt from the interior layout of the Republic of China, Li Mo glanced at the monitor in front of him for the last time, and held the walkie-talkie to confirm again to the actor's dressing room in the distance, "How are the actors prepared? If there is no problem, the shooting will start in five minutes!"

As Li Mo's voice spread along the air to all corners of the set, the studio was busy.

Although the preparations had been made before, the staff of the various behind-the-scenes departments were still hurrying to make the final preparations.

It didn't take long for the walkie-talkie in Li Mo's hand to hear feedback from various departments.

"Light, OK!"

"Props, no problem!"

"The actor is putting on makeup, and the preparation is already in place!"

"Radio, the camera is all normal!"

Hearing these feedbacks, Li Mo nodded with satisfaction, returned to his position, and watched several actors start making final preparations before filming in front of the camera.

Due to the unexpected unexpected situation in the Kingdom of Siam, the filming cycle of "Detective Chinatown" has inevitably increased.

The reason why Li Mo asked Feng Wen to inform everyone to rest for a week at the airport was actually to use this time to give priority to the issue of extending everyone's contract time.

Comparatively speaking, the crew of the crew is the easiest to deal with in this regard.

Except for a very small number of locals who were hired locally in Mankau, the vast majority of the crew had worked with Li Mo for at least two years, and for them, the question of who to work with was not very big.

Molong has always been more generous in terms of the salary of the crew.

As long as you work hard and seriously, money is indispensable.

What is more troublesome is the schedule of several leading actors.

And the most troublesome of them is Wang Baoqiang.

When the executive producer of the crew approached Wang Baoqiang's agent Song Zhe for coordination, this guy finally got the opportunity.

not only requires the crew to spend more than one million yuan in salary for Wang Baoqiang's extra schedule arrangement, but also requires the crew to sign an agreement, and if it is postponed again due to unexpected circumstances, it will continue to increase the salary......

If this old man had reported this incident to Li Mo at that time, it is estimated that Li Mo would have arranged a vigorous death for Tang Ren directly in the movie, and then lifted Ah Xiang's shoes as the protagonist......

…… Fortunately, the executive producer still had a glimmer of clarity in his mind at the time, and knew that this kind of thing should be handled by his real superior, Zong Shuai, on the crew.

Anyway, before the final report of the results, I don't know what method Zong Shuai used, which not only made Song Zhe obediently return to reality, but also disappeared from the crew again......

The most important thing is that the whole operation is smooth, and even Wang Baoqiang only knows that his agent has gone home temporarily because of something at home......

After getting the crew's biggest time bomb, the overall progress of "Detective Chinatown" is still satisfactory.

Although some time was delayed due to the director's personal reasons, several assistant directors had worked with Li Mo and knew the performance requirements of the actors, so until Li Mo returned to the crew, the delay was still within a controllable range.

"Detective Chinatown" ......" The scene reporter put the scene sign in front of the camera lens at this time, "The one hundred and seventy-fifth scene, the seventeenth act, start now!"

“a!”

Today's scene is filmed in which Tony, whose identity is exposed, escapes from Mr. Yan's men, and after his thief is not dead, he runs to Chinatown to kidnap Ah Xiang and ask Tang Ren and Qin Feng about the whereabouts of gold.

Although this scene is a night scene, the crew only cares about the progress of filming, so how can they wait until the evening to start filming?

All the doors and windows are covered with a black cloth, and through the change of light, this creates the effect of being in the room at night.

As the sound of the beating board sounded, the atmosphere on the set instantly became tense.

Tong Liya wore a ponytail, wore a homely pajamas, was tied to a chair with a rope, and had duct tape on her mouth, standing next to her was Tony with a bleeding head and a gun, and opposite Tony, Qin Feng and Tang Ren played by Liu Haoran and Wang Baoqiang.

The show begins.

Ma Yuke, who played Tony, had messy hair, his face was covered with blood, and he was holding a pistol in his hand, pointing it at Tong Liya's head, and just as he was about to say something, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Familiar ringtones......

Familiar shape......

There is no doubt that this is where product placement comes into play.

Compared with the Didi taxi deliberately described in the original movie, Li Mo is much more particular about similar places.

Because he never said what the name of the phone was from beginning to end, he just used the lens language needed in the plot to give Ma Yuke a close-up of the phone in his hand for five seconds......

5 million in advertising revenue.

Glancing at the caller ID on the phone, Tony said dejectedly, "Mr. Yan already knows my details, I can't stay in Thailand......"

"You can go to Australia......"

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Ren interjected directly.

After saying a word, before Tony could react, Tang Ren leaned forward again and added, "The sun is good over there, and the seafood is great......"

Seeing this, Li Mo couldn't help but nodded.

Although Wang Baoqiang's agent Song Zhe is a trash, Wang Baoqiang himself is not so idiot as he looks on the surface.

Being able to grow from a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple who has not read much to the current status is not something that can be done with just a body of kung fu.

At least his performance in comedy movies is still worthy of the salary paid by Molong Media.

In just two sentences, he vividly expressed Tang Ren's stupid appearance of being unclear about the situation.

"Huh...... Yes, indeed."

With two dry laughs, Tony nodded, as if he was very satisfied with Tang Ren's suggestion......

"You Tamar dump me......"

"Click, Yuke, your lines are wrong. ”

"I'm sorry, Director Li, I'm a little too into the play. ”

Ma Yuke quickly apologized.

Li Mo nodded, first affirming his expression and performance just now, and then put forward his own request.

"Yuke, your performance just now is okay most of the time, but when you receive a call, you can add a little more micro-expressions to show the hysteria in the character's heart, you think about it yourself first, maybe you can try. ”

"Okay, Director Li, I'll think about it first. ”

…………

Don't look at Ma Yuke, who was born in a mainland province, his father is still an actor in a provincial theater in Northwest China, but his contracted company is Huanyu Entertainment in Xiangjiang.

In the past few years, there have been few movies launched by Xiangjiang Films, and he signed a contract from the mainland in the past, so naturally he is even less valued.

If he hadn't recognized Liu Yifei and Su Chang who happened to go to the company for some trouble during the audition, it is estimated that Liu Yifei and the others might not have been able to recognize the flattering man in front of him, who would have played You Tanzhi in "Dragon Babu" back then......

Although Liu Yifei and Su Chang did not open their mouths to Li Mo because of this, the assistant director in charge of the audition was a good person.

The role of Tony is not important in the first place, it is almost the same for anyone, since this is the case, it is not a big deal to sell personal favors.

Although Su Chang has just joined the company for a short time, Liu Yifei is still the most famous one under Molong Media.

Even though Li Mo has said many times that there is no such thing as a brother and a sister in Molong, the staff at the bottom still regards Liu Yifei as the company's first sister according to the habits of most companies......

If you have the opportunity to sell her personal favor, you don't have to bother yourself, so why not?

…… But then again, Ma Yuke is also a good person who will seize opportunities.

Since joining the crew of "Detective Chinatown", not only has he performed well, but he has also had a good attitude towards being a person and doing things.

Although it has never been obvious, Li Mo has heard the assistant director talking about Ma Yuke's benefits in his ear more than once......

Anyway, Molong's current cast is not large, so let's sign it first and see how it goes.

Anyway, an actor of this level, even if the contract is terminated, it will not take much effort.

After a few minutes of rest, the filming continued, and this time the shooting was much smoother than just now, and this scene, which was about three minutes long in the feature film, was all over after only one afternoon of shooting.

After watching the performances of several actors behind the monitor, Li Mo stood up and announced to everyone with a smile, "Everyone, I announce that all the shots of "Detective Chinatown" have been filmed and completed! Thank you for your hard work!"

"Yay!"

Although it was almost ten days later than scheduled, after encountering so many messy accidents, Li Mo was already very satisfied with being able to complete this movie.

"It's finally over. ”

When Li Mo announced the news of the finale, several actors in the audience relaxed.

Tong Liya took the towel, wiped the artificial plasma stuck to her body, and said, "I didn't expect so many things to happen during the filming of this movie, I almost couldn't get out of it." ”

"Sister Yaya, you are good," Liu Haoran, who played Qin Feng, also walked over in a funny way, "After such a long time, I usually talk now...... Target...... Time ......"

"Okay, don't speak," Wang Baoqiang also took off the coat he was wearing with the help of his assistant, "Don't talk about yourself, I've been playing with you for so long, I wanted to say it a long time ago, the way you stutter is really going to kill ......people in a hurry."

"I have the most say on this issue," Ma Yuke also got up from the ground and rubbed the few places on his body that had just been attacked by Wang Baoqiang, "When I heard you say your lines just now, I really wanted to go over and pinch your neck and let you finish the conversation quickly......"

"Everyone has worked hard during this time," Li Mo gave up his position and waited for the people from the drama and props team to come and pack up their things, "After going through so many things, everyone can be regarded as friends in trouble, today I have asked Feng Wen to prepare the finale banquet in the hotel, everyone hurry up and change their clothes now, don't be late at night." ”

……

The completion of the filming of the film does mean that for the actors, their work can come to an end, but for Li Mo, the completion of the camera only means that about one-third of the work in his hand has been completed, and the next two months is the time for him to work hard.

Organize the shooting materials, edit the trailer, release version, and finally announce the film......

All of these things require his involvement.

It's just that when these links are carried out, Li Mo's identity will also change.

However, that is all for later, and what he wants to do most now is to enjoy a rare moment of relaxation.

………………

The table culture of the people of the Celestial Empire has a long history, and it seems that no matter what kind of thing it is, it can eventually be summed up on the dining table.

Want to negotiate?

Hongmen Feast!

Want to solve a problem?

A glass of wine releases the military power!

Want to play the whole country as one?

xx Full ......

Uh, looks like something strange got in......

All in all, for the people of the Celestial Empire, the dining table is a good place to socialize, exchange feelings, and enhance relationships.

And things like the finale banquet, which are not costly, have unconsciously become an inevitable process after the crew led by Li Mo completes the filming.

After packing up the filming equipment on the set and restoring the interior furnishings of the previously renovated house, everyone in the crew came to the hotel in batches to participate in the finale banquet that Li Mo had already prepared for them.

In view of the fact that the traditional meal system is easy to passively divide the crew into several small groups, the finale banquet held by Li Mo today is more like a Western-style buffet, where everyone can not only take a bunch of things and hide in a corner to eat, but also socialize in the hall with a cup and talk freely with the person they are interested in or want to talk to......

Because the injury on his left arm has not healed at this time, and although Li Mo is young, whether it is the staff or actors like Wang Baoqiang, they all know that he is an absolute power person in the crew, so except for the beginning of the dinner, because Liu Haoran made a special trip to express his gratitude and drank a few sips of red wine sporadically, almost no one will take the initiative to find Li Mo.

No one came to look for him, and Li Mo was happy to be idle.

Finding a more secluded corner, Li Mo sat down with the wine glass he had drunk halfway through.

He thinks he might be able to take advantage of the fact that he can take advantage of the original version of "Detective Chinatown" in his mind now, and try to give the company's editors a rough plan, so that they can do more with half the effort when assisting him in his work.

Before he could figure it out, someone had already found him.

"Director Li, it turns out that you are here," holding a large glass of wine that couldn't tell what it was, Tong Liya found Li Mo, "It's really easy to find." ”

Li Mo frowned and looked at Tong Liya.

After washing off the artificial plasma on her body, Tong Liya wore a white loose casual T-shirt, the wide clothing did not hide Tong Liya's slender waist, but added a bit of looming temptation, and the length of the denim shorts on the lower body was also just right, neither because it was too long and bloated, nor because it was too short and frivolous, on the whole, while showing Tong Liya's graceful figure, it also made people forget her real age......

Even if he is accustomed to seeing Fat Di and Gu Limena's youthful and energetic appearance, Li Mo still has to admit that at least the current Tong Liya is no worse than Fat Di and them in some aspects......

"What's the matter? ”

"It's okay, what can I do?" After two sentences, Tong Liya poured another sip of red wine, "Isn't it happy that the movie is over." ”

"You don't seem to be happy like this," Li Mo frowned, dodging the smell of wine from Tong Liya's mouth, "What about your assistant?" I think the most important thing you should do now is to go back to your room and rest." ”

"Rest, I don't want to rest," these two words seemed to touch a switch in Tong Liya's mind, and her emotions became excited, "Li Mo, do you know, as long as I rest, there will be a voice in my head that reminds me, let me face the mess caused by that bastard Cheng Sicheng......"

"But I didn't do anything wrong at all, I filmed honestly and worked seriously, why did Cheng Sicheng ask me to clean up the mess caused by that bastard?"

"What about your agency?" Li Mo frowned, "They should have a special team to solve these problems for you, right?"

"Hah, a special team?" Li Mo didn't say this, but as soon as he heard this, Tong Liya poured a big sip of wine into his mouth again, "Those guys, not only do they not help to find a way to solve the problem, but they are thinking about how to use this matter to reasonably terminate the contract with me......"

"Haaa......"

The brokerage company Li Mo has seen a lot in his two lives combined, but he has never seen such a strange thing.

Not to mention that Tong Liya is now one of the few second-tier actresses, just saying that she can star in Li Mo's movies is enough to prove her worth.

At this time, I don't want to help her solve the problem, but I am anxious to draw a line with her, are those people in the brain?

Do you really think that without Cheng Sicheng, Tong Liya will have no play?

"Okay, Sister Yaya, if you are really terminated, others don't want you, we Molong want you to ......"

"Huh?" I don't know what that sentence just now became in Tong Liya's ears, not only did she not show a look of relief and joy, but instead drank the remaining wine in the cup in one gulp, as if she had made up her mind, threw the cup, and the whole person hung on Li Mo......

"Take me back to my room......"

Sighing, Li Mo looked left and right, and when he confirmed that no one was paying attention to him, he first took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Feng Wen, and then set up Tong Liya, who had become a puddle of mud, and walked towards the elevator to the guest room.

Because Li Mo only had one hand to exert force now, he could only focus all his attention on the woman in the crook of his right arm, for fear that she would bump somewhere......

Because of this, Li Mo didn't notice that under Tong Liya's loose hair, the two red lips suddenly opened, revealing a smile of 'stealing chickens'......

s Because the plot is more closely connected, it will not be divided into chapters today.

Although the number of chapters is less, the number of words is 5,000 words, no less.

Tomorrow will be the same.
