Chapter 35: Persuasion
Finally set off, this time I learned the lesson of the last time the bus was blocked by the traffic police, and chose to take the train. The main members of the crew, including Wang Dalun and Zuo Wenlu, went to Fenyang together to make the final preparations before the start of filming.
When they arrived in Fenyang, the artist Liang Jingdong and his two students had been working there for several days, because the main thing about "Xiao Wu" was the current state, so their work was very easy.
In the next few days, according to Lao Jia's request, Wang Dalun began to play with the main local actors and established a mutual relationship with them. Every time he rehearses, Lao Jia always asks people who are not busy with the crew to come together. Lao Jia said that this can create a relaxed atmosphere for those inexperienced actors who are "playing movies" with them. For this reason, Lao Jia also made a cameo role in the play, Jin Xiaoyong's horse boy - Erbao.
Hao Hongjian, who played the second male Jin Xiaoyong, and An Qunyan, who played the third male lead, were a little unable to let go at first, but under Lao Jia's earnest teaching, they gradually began to adapt.
A qiē seems to be proceeding in an orderly manner. On the last day of March, the crew found a car in Fenyang and prepared to go to the capital the next day to bring the remaining crew members and equipment to Fenyang. Because the work has been very smooth these days, everyone was in a good mood that night, and naturally sang wine at the dinner table.
Lao Jia's Fenyang buddies were all good at drinking and enthusiastic, and Gu Zheng was the first to be poured down. Lao Jia originally had a poor amount of alcohol, and everyone knew the roots. So those Fenyang buddies targeted Wang Dalun and Yu Liwei again, Yu Liwei is the oldest, the oldest, and the most slippery, spitting wine, stealing, urinating, and doing everything. This made Wang Dalun alone, Rao was that he had more than a pound of alcohol, but he was still dazed, and he fell asleep when he returned to the hotel.
Wang Dalun has a good relationship with Yu Liwei, and the two still live in the same room when they come to Fenyang this time. In a daze, I heard someone knocking on the door, opened my eyes, Yu Liwei had already gotten up and opened the door, it was Gu Zheng who came, and the two were still chatting quietly at the door for a while.
Wang Dalun took out the pager and took a look, it was only two o'clock in the morning, he yawned and asked Yu Liwei, who was getting dressed and preparing to go out, "In the middle of the night, what is Lao Gu looking for you?"
"The heroine is leaving, and Lao Jia is getting angry. Yu Liwei replied to Gangpu, and hurried out.
"This old Jia still hasn't done it!" Wang Dalun hadn't woken up yet, he was having a headache, muttered, and continued to sleep with his head covered.
It didn't seem to have slept for long, he was woken up again, and it was Gu Zheng again, standing at the head of the bed with a bitter face.
"Can't figure it out?"
This time it's okay, I woke up and didn't have the same headache as I did just now.
The girl wanted to leave, but Lao Jia refused to compromise, and said that if she was to go, he would go to the Fenyang Red Light District to find a real ******** to play. ”
"Isn't this!" Wang Dalun was also anxious when he heard it, "This is about to start, and you are looking for a real ******** to act, what are you kidding?"
"Not really. Gu Zheng nodded in agreement, and then begged: "I think you have a good relationship with that girl, or you can help go up and persuade her." ”
Wang Dalun belongs to the kind of person who can get along with anyone, and Lao Jia asked the two to get along with each other in order to increase the tacit understanding between the two. Therefore, the relationship between Wang Dalun and Zuo Wenlu is indeed okay.
"That'll do. "At the moment, I can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, if I really change to a ******** who doesn't understand four or six to play Hu Meimei, the one who suffers is still Wang Dalun, who plays opposite her.
After getting dressed and just about to go out, Wang Dalun suddenly said to Gu Zheng: "I'm confused by you, you haven't told me yet, why should she leave?"
"No, it's for the money. Gu Zheng said hatefully: "She wants to get paid before starting the film." ”
"Give it to her and it's over. Wang Dalun breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Zuo Wenlu was unwilling to play because he was dissatisfied with the role, which would be even more troublesome. However, he also knew that Lao Jia was short of money, and continued: "Otherwise, sign an agreement with her, pay half or one-third first, and then pay it off after the play is finished." ”
"I said the same thing, but Lao Jia just didn't agree, he said that the brothers didn't get a penny, it's not fair, it's the rule of the road. Besides, we have that little money in our hands, and it's hard to say whether we can hold on to it until the end. Gu Zheng said with a sad face.
The latter sentence is the key, Wang Dalun thought about it, sighed secretly in his heart, and said, "Okay, I'll go up and talk to her." ”
Last night, it was wine and cigarettes, and his mouth was stinky, Wang Dalun brushed his teeth, washed his face, and then went out upstairs. Zuo Wenlu's room door was open, and he knocked on the door.
"Come in. "The voice inside was weak and tired.
Wang Dalun walked in, only to see Zuo Wenlu sitting on the edge of the bed, next to him was a suitcase that had been sorted out, seeing him come in, Zuo Wenlu smiled bitterly: "You are also here to persuade me?"
Zuo Wenlu looked listless, probably because he hadn't slept all night, and his eyes already had dark circles.
She looked full of complaints, and without waiting for Wang Dalun to speak, she continued: "I just think this crew is very unreliable, you see who is from Lao Jiala? I know you have a good relationship with Lao Jia, maybe it's just to help a friend. But I'm different, I'm just here to make money from filming, and I heard that their total funding is only 200,000. What kind of movie can you make with 200,000 yuan? I'm afraid that I won't get paid in the end. Anyway, I told them everything I had to say, and if they didn't agree, then I had to leave. ”
Zuo Wenlu was very excited, she had indeed made up her mind, she wanted to use words to block Wang Dalun's mouth.
Of course, Wang Dalun could hear what Zuo Wenlu meant. Speaking from the heart, he thinks that what Zuo Wenlu said is right, and it is normal to have concerns, because even he himself can't say anything about this matter.
"Sister Wenlu, how much is your salary?" Wang Dalun forgot to ask Gu Zheng when he came up, what was her salary.
Zuo Wenlu was a little hesitant, according to the rules, the remuneration of actors is generally kept secret, so as not to be psychologically unbalanced between actors.
Seeing this, Wang Dalun smiled and said, "It's okay, if you really don't worry about Lao Jia and them, I'll give you your salary first." ”
In fact, when Gu Zheng told him about this, he had already made up his mind. After rehearsing during this time, he found that although Zuo Wenlu was only a student of the Art Department of Beijing Normal University, his talent as an actor even surpassed that of Tian Hairong, who played with him in "Thunderstorm". He really wants to play Xiao Wu, of course, he wants to be as good as the actor who plays the opposite role, so he doesn't want Zuo Wenlu to go.
Lao Jia said that he wanted to find a real ******** to play Hu Meimei. Although it is angry talk, Wang Dalun believes that he is really in a hurry, and Lao Jia is really capable of doing this kind of thing.
Besides, the total investment of this movie is only 200,000 yuan, and Zuo Wenlu is a student, so the salary will definitely not be too outrageous, and he can still take out this money. Of course, the more important thing is because he believes that Lao Jia will definitely succeed, and no matter what, he will not lose this money.
Of course, just because he thinks this doesn't mean that others think like this, as soon as Zuo Wenlu heard his words, he immediately stood up in surprise and said, "How can this work?"
"Why can't it?" Wang Dalun smiled, looked at her and said seriously: "Sister Wenlu, to be honest, I really want to play the role of Xiao Wu, I think your acting skills are very good, and it is very comfortable to play with you." In fact, Lao Jia said something that was not wrong, he said that you should be Hu Meimei. So, I don't want you to go. ”
Zuo Wenlu was a little embarrassed to hear it, and said: "Actually, I really want to play Hu Meimei, but I'm just worried about ......."
"Hehe, Sister Wenlu, you put your heart in your stomach now, and as soon as the bank opens at dawn, I will go to collect the money. Oh, by the way, how much do you get paid?"
"You don't have to be like this, you are also an actor, why do you have to give money for them?" Zuo Wenlu really wanted to get the money early, if the crew gave it, she would be confident, but Wang Dalun gave it, and she felt embarrassed.
"Sister Wenlu, it's okay. Didn't you say it just now, I'm friends with Lao Jia, and Lao Jia can't lose me. Wang Dalun said with a smile.
"That'...... Then I'm sorry, 10,000 yuan, I'll give you the card number, and you can transfer it to me then. ”
Since Wang Dalun said so, Zuo Wenlu also pushed the boat, shyly took out the bank card from his bag, copied the card number in a small note and handed it to him.
"Okay, I'll do it as soon as the bank opens. ”
"There's no need to rush, you can do it anytime. ”
Zuo Wenlu's salary was a little lower than he expected, and when he made his first movie, Zhang Yuan generously gave him a salary of 20,000 yuan. It seems that Lao Jia is still poor and short-minded!
"How is it?" When Wang Dalun appeared at Lao Jia's door, Gu Zheng couldn't wait to greet him and asked.
"It's okay, it's okay, she's not leaving. ”
"Really, fake, don't you joke, how did you convince her?" Gu Zheng's eyes widened, and even Lao Jia and Yu Liwei looked at him with incredible eyes at this time. You must know that the three of them took turns to convince the girl before, and they even wondered if this thing and that girl were fake, and they had already secretly had a leg. Otherwise, how can you go up and leave people behind for a while.
"What else can I do? Promise to give money!" Wang Dalun shrugged his shoulders with both hands, this thing has been with Yu Liwei for a long time, and he has also learned a few words of Hong Kong.
"Aren't you fooling around! This is a bad thing, and I resolutely refuse to accept it. When the three of them heard this, they were immediately deflated, and Lao Jia stood up with an excited face and sternly refused.
"Don't worry, you can't break the rules. I'll pay her 10,000 yuan in advance, and then you can give it to me. Wang Dalun said with a smile.
The three of them looked at each other, especially Yu Liwei, compared to Lao Jia and Gu Zheng, the two poor people, he could get the money, but he has always been very clear about public and private affairs, even if he is one of the owners of the company that produced this movie.
"Aren't you afraid that your money will be wasted?" Gu Zheng squeezed out a sentence with a constipated face. Wang Dalun doesn't talk about salary, he can understand, but he can't understand it if he has to pay other people's salaries, and he even feels that this kid is a little stupid to talk about righteousness.
"What do I have to be afraid of? I can trust Lao Jia and you, we will definitely be able to make a good movie. But don't blame others, who told us that this crew looks like a grass stage team, if you change someone else, you may run faster than her. Wang Dalun said with a smile.
"You kid......"
Lao Jia didn't know what to say, and his expression was even more excited than the last time he didn't talk about salary.
Wang Dalun hurriedly said: "Don't be moved, and don't be sensational." I'm just afraid that you will really find a ******** to play Hu Meimei. Besides, we've all been rehearsing for so long, you think
Wang Dalun Balabala said a lot, and was coldly punched by Lao Jia in the shoulder. Immediately covered his shoulders with a look of grievance.
"You're a beaten. Lao Jia pointed at him and smiled happily, but his eyes flashed with gratitude, in fact, he didn't want Zuo Wenlu to go, in the final analysis, it was because he was shy.
One more thing, it's true that the female number one wants to walk in the filming of "Xiao Wu", and when I checked the information, I found that the content was the same as a certain work, so it can only be that everyone borrowed the content from the information, and I just adapted it slightly.
