43. Born out of nowhere, the store is a city

The car moved forward, leaving behind the colorful neon lights, leaving only the street lights standing every few tens of meters out of the city road, emitting a dim yellow light.

After all, Jiangsu and Zhejiang are rich places, and the level of transportation infrastructure is extremely high, Han Fei didn't have time to take a nap and the conductor on the train shouted: "Hengdian is coming soon, all passengers, please wake up, take inventory of your belongings and don't lose them." ”

"Hey, Brother Cai, how do I feel this little heart jumping?" Han Fei touched Lao Cai's arm with his elbow.

Lao Cai blinked his right eye and said with a smile: "Where is this going, when your heart beats more in a few days." ”

The minibus crossed a bridge and stopped at a wide cement field, Han Fei got off the bus with a box, in front of him was a huge stone wall, four or five underground lamps illuminated the stone wall, and four big characters were written on the top: Jiangnan Town, and there was a line of small characters in the lower right: XX treasure title.

Han Fei laughed out loud, the people of Hengdian are quite modest, they only carve a town in the south of the Yangtze River, not the first town in the south of the Yangtze River, which is really simple and simple in the people's customs.

There is a row of three jumpers parked on the right, about more than 20 cars, the three jumpers are not big, and it looks like the situation can sit down two people with luggage. Seeing the passengers getting off and off the minibus, a group of drivers came over to solicit customers enthusiastically, shouting plastic Mandarin: "Come on, take my car, my driving skills are good, and the price is cheap." ”

Han Fei really wanted to ask: "Master, do you have the Qiu Ming Mountain in this car, who is more powerful or AE86 or Wuling Glory?"

Han Fei shook his head, after all, he is not a person who is too idle, he will be beaten if he has nothing to do with other people's business.

"Brother Cai, are we going to walk in three jumpers?"

Lao Cai pouted and said: "What kind of three jumpers to sit on in just a few steps, the locals know that these three jumpers are so black, and Lao Tzu is not cheap to walk." ”

"What kind of black method?" Han Fei was puzzled.

"Let's talk as we go. Lao Cai pointed in a direction, and Han Fei pulled out the lever of the box, pulled the box and followed him.

Lao Cai took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, shook out one and put it in Han Fei's mouth, lit a fire for him, and then came with one himself, took a puff, and said as he walked: "The behavior of these bastards is to ruin the image of our locals, and they are specially tricked into newcomers like you." ”

"Huh?" Han Fei was very surprised, I just praised the people of Hengdian for their modesty and simple folk customs, why did they suddenly change their painting style?

"Ah what, the newcomer is not familiar with the place of life, people will give you a good word to get into the car, don't talk to you about the car money first, just tell you how awesome Hengdian Film and Television City is, Qin, Tang, Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, how magnificent the five major scenery is, and you will be stunned. Then I shush you and ask for warmth, young man, little girl, are you here to fulfill your dream of being an actor? ”

Han Fei smiled: "Of course, I always dream of becoming an actor." Haha, do I learn like this?"

"Haha, your kid Zhenta Niang is a genius. Lao Cai laughed out loud, lit Han Fei with a cigarette between his fingers, and said: "Then these people began to tell you that I have an actor certificate here, and you can enter and exit the scenic spot for free, but it has expired, but you can take it and mix in, and the doorman will not deliberately stop you from checking your documents when you see it, so let's do it, I see that you have a fate with me, and I will sell this card to you for fifty." ”

"Tsk, if I heard these words alone, I would be very moved, let alone fifty, I will also buy the certificate for one hundred. ”

"Actually, this certificate is so cheap that it is deadly, the actors' union will run one for ten yuan, saving time and effort, those bastards cheated you out of your money and let you remember him. ”

"Isn't the deceived person going around spreading this scam?"

"Preach, it's impossible, it's very painful if people find out that they've been fooled, but isn't it so painful to see another recruit who is as good as you?"

"It seems to be. ”

"That's right, don't say anything about the people who have been deceived, the next time another wave of newcomers will be fooled, and over time, won't the image of this local person in the Hengpiao clan be ruined?"

As the two walked on, they finally saw a brightly lit street, with four or five stories of buildings standing jagged on either side of the street, and all kinds of signs hung on the facades, mainly lodging and dining, mixed with a few clothing stores and grocery stores.

"Damn, it's quite complete here, look at this signboard, ZQ hot pot, BJ roast duck, S County snacks, Wuxi soup dumplings......" Han Fei looked at the various signboards, and he was a little dizzy.

"It's a small city, with all kinds of life and entertainment. ”

That is, speaking of this, Lao Cai's pride arose, and he said excitedly: "I don't know who spread the phrase, called'Born out of nowhere, the store is a city', how about it, this description is both vivid and domineering." ”

"Born out of nowhere, the store is a city, talented, interesting. Han Fei gave a thumbs up.

"There's another explanation. ”

"What's the explanation?"

"As you scholars often say, the siege of the city, the people inside want to get out, and the people outside want to come in. ”

"Haha, interesting. ”

"Look over there. Lao Cai pointed in a direction, Han Fei looked over, a building, three shutter doors, the door was crowded with people, some people sat on stools, some people simply took old newspapers and sat down on the ground, and then looked up at four big characters: Actors' Union.

Han Fei looked at Lao Cai a little puzzled and asked, "What does the Actors' Guild do?"

"In Hengdian, the actors' union decides to perform in groups, if you want to go to the play, you first have to come here to take pictures and get an actor certificate, and then the union will release crew information every day. ”

"Is it so crazy to rob?"

"Haha, of course, it's too late today, I'll take you to apply for a permit tomorrow, and by the way, visit the spectacular corner scene. ”

At this time, two minibuses drove from the other end and stopped at the door of the actors' union, the door opened, and the men and women got off the bus with fatigue, and then a man wearing a peaked cap shouted with a loudspeaker: "Hey, hey, tomorrow at five o'clock, still gather here, don't be late, I am not responsible for the role of being late, everyone has worked hard, go back and have a good rest, remember to behave well tomorrow." ”

A group of performers responded weakly, and the voices of dozens of people added up to the decibel level, and it is estimated that not a single cat barked.

"Hey, Brother Cai, are these people all group performers?"

Lao Cai nodded and said, "Yes, they have a good harvest today, they didn't come back until eleven o'clock, and they still have overtime pay." ”

"What, overtime pay, this salary is quite high, I sometimes don't have any money for overtime?" Han Fei blurted out a sentence.

"Nonsense, when did you work overtime, little brat. ”

"Why didn't I-" Han Fei just wanted to refute, but suddenly remembered that he was a little kid now, where did he work overtime, and accidentally said that he had leaked his mouth, so he asked again: "What is the situation of this overtime pay?"

"Want to know?"

"Yes. ”

Lao Cai finally had the opportunity to show off his posture in front of Han Fei, but he had to put on some scores, and said: "This has to start with the actor level, then it's a long story." ”

Han Fei has also seen a lot, this virtue is similar to Ren Hai, and he understands and says: "Don't worry, let's talk slowly, let's go to the night snack stall over there and eat some supper to cushion our stomach." ”

"You're in for a treat?"

"I please. ”

"Okay, what are you waiting for, let's go. ”

"Hey. Han Fei rolled his eyes and walked forward with the box.

Lao Cai sat down with a familiar car, and said a local dialect as if he was going back to his home: "Come to a bowl of wontons, increase the amount." After speaking, he asked Han Fei: "What do you eat?"

"Like you. ”

"Another bowl of wontons, increase the amount. ”

The proprietress immediately responded: "Okay, wait a minute, it'll be fine right away." ”

Han Fei snorted into his hand and said with a smile: "Now you can talk about it, boss." ”

"No problem. Lao Cai raised his eyebrows, looking a little treacherous, and said: "The actors in this Hengdian are also hierarchical, just like the Zhuji, Yuanying, and Jiedan in Xiuxian novels, 1 extra→ 2 groups of special actors (small), 3 groups of special actors (small→), 3 groups of special actors (large), 4 group actors→→ 5 role actors→ 6 supporting roles→ 7 protagonists→ 8 star actors→ 9 star celebrities. ”

"I'll go, it's almost the same level as being an official, section members, section chiefs, division chiefs, department directors, ministers, amazing. Han Fei was a little surprised, there were so many levels in the group performance, and sure enough, where there were people, there were rivers and lakes.

Lao Cai nodded and said, "Almost, don't interrupt." ”

"Oh. ”

"In Hengdian, as far as I know, there are at most people who have worked from 1 to 4, 4 to 5 is a gap that is difficult to cross, and 5 is generally trained by professional classes. ”

Han Fei nodded, and secretly said in his heart that this is probably similar to being promoted to the deputy department, and only when he reaches the deputy department can he enter the leadership position, and most civil servants have worked hard for it throughout their careers, but it is difficult to cross this barrier.

Han Fei was puzzled and asked, "But what does this have to do with overtime pay?"

"What's the hurry, you listen to me. ”

At this time, the proprietress brought two bowls of wontons, and both of them scooped up a large stone, and ate it comfortably, and the cold and stiff body seemed to suddenly soak in the hot spring.

"Cool. Lao Cai shouted out, looked at Han Fei's comfortable appearance, and continued: "The next thing is to talk about the salary, the group performance is 40 yuan/8 hours, after 8 hours, if the crew is not manual, then add 5 yuan per hour, if it is an all-night play, add 10 yuan per hour after 12 o'clock, and make an hour less than an hour." ”

Han Fei chewed the wonton in his mouth and asked vaguely: "At the price of the group performance, what about the small special and the big special?"

"Xiaote is 150 yuan/12 hours, there is a camera but the lines are three or four sentences in the sky, and Date is 300 yuan/12 hours, there are shots and a large number of lines, more than 12 hours is considered an extra job. ”

"What do you mean?"

"For example, if 12 hours have passed, even if it is only an hour, then you will have to be given another 150 or 300, you know. ”

Han Fei nodded and said, "Understand, hey, what about the actors?"

"The actors with the crew are directly selected by the crew, and generally they don't pick people from the trade union, they all go to the hotel where the crew is located to hand over their resumes, if the director picks them, they will pick them, and if they can't pick them, they have to go back to the union to grab the role. ”

"What about wages?"

Lao Cai buried his head and drank a sip of wonton soup and said: "2000-4000 is not waiting, depending on the financial resources of the crew, I was a follower once anyway, and I took more than 2600." ”

"Ah, isn't that worse than Da Te?" Han Fei calculated the multiplication, and Da Te's salary was multiplied by 30 more than that of the group actors.

"Silly you, Da Te is paid according to the number of episodes, generally two episodes are in the sky, and the rest of the time you have to squat at the door of the union and grab people, it's not the same with the group, go to the crew account, get a monthly salary, take care of food and housing, and have enough lines and shots. ”

"Well, I'm thinking too much. ”

"Okay, let's leave when we're done eating, go home and get a good night's sleep, and I'll take you back tomorrow." ”

"Okay. ”

Han Fei gave the money, and the two turned left into an alley, and then turned a corner and came out from the other end, suddenly it was another street, but it was half as prosperous as the street just now. Lao Cai pointed to a three-story building in front of him and said, "That's it, my house." ”

"Yo, yes, three floors, better than my family. ”

"It's okay, it turned out to be two floors, and then there were more and more people in Hengdian, and my mother decided to build another floor for rent. ”

"Yes, you can, charter Gong Lao Cai. ”

Lao Cai took the key to open the door, and the two entered the house and went up to the third floor with the suitcase. Lao Cai opened another room and let Han Fei go in first, and then went to another room to tell his mother that he was home.

After a while, Lao Cai came in again, and Han Fei was puzzled: "This, this means that we will sleep in the same room tonight?"

"yes, the rest of my house is rented out, that's all. ”

Han Fei covered his face, my mother, the first time I slept with a stranger was with a big man, this wave is simply a blood loss.
