Xu Hao was successfully "occupied" by Liu, and when he was in the Yingdu Hotel, he praised Xu Hao for being very energetic, and Xu Hao naturally politely said that Mr. Liu was good.

And then that's how they met.

When they arrived at the filming venue Qin Palace, after eating and waiting for the scene, Liu Zhanzhan sat on his canvas folding stool and chatted with Xu Hao endlessly. In fact, Liu Zhanzhan is not like Wei Wei said, he is a pure talker, he will open up the conversation when he sees the person who has fallen in love.

Those special appointments with "Reject people for thousands of miles" written on their faces, Liu Zhan is not a bird.

It was also when he saw that Xu Hao had been listening to him politely that he said more. Talk about family life, talk about some interesting things in life, and tell Xu Hao about some precautions when filming.

Xu Hao is not the impatient special contract before, he listens very seriously, Liu Zhanzhan is an old drifter, he has run countless crews in Hengdian, and a little exchange of experience will be of great help to him. Even Xu Hao deliberately complimented Liu Zhan, "Teacher Liu" did not leave his mouth.

Later, he simply squatted next to the bench occupied by Liu, he is now running a special contract, logically speaking, he can bring a small bench, and the folding bench left by Ma Jun is for running plays. It's just that Xu Hao is a little embarrassed, and he feels that he brings a stool to the crew, which is very big, and he is afraid that others will say that he is squeamish.

"From the beginning of construction in Hengdian to the beginning of last year, a total of more than 42,000 dramas have been filmed here, accounting for two-thirds of the country's costume dramas. Last year alone, Hengdian received 178 crews, I came to Hengdian in 07 and saw with my own eyes that Hengdian is developing bigger and bigger day by day. ”

The topic of horizontal drifting can never be separated from Hengdian, and Liu Zhanzhan is very proud of his choice of Hengdian in the past few years.

Somehow, Xu Hao thought of Lu Songshan, a white-bearded old man, and his words in the post [Hengdian Bar]: "The glory of Hengdian comes from good management. But to go down is not to think about Mao again. Host. Xi's words: 'The people, only the people are the driving force behind the creation of history. 'History is made by slaves'. ”

To extinguish this inexplicable association, Xu Hao said: "The development of Hengdian should be a lot of horizontal drifters like Mr. Liu, who create zào together." ”

Liu Zhanzhan nodded with feeling: "Yes." I studied stage plays, but look at me, I was born with the label of 'bad guy' on my brain, with a jujube kernel face, high cheekbones, and small squinting eyes. That is, in Hengdian, you can beg for a bite to eat. If I don't come to Hengdian, where will I go, Stephen Chow has said that I look like a bad person! ”

"I heard that Mr. Liu wrote in "Journey to the West. Demon Suppression" plays the shopkeeper of Gao Laozhuang? ”

"That's, Stephen Chow, that's amazing, the first time I've seen him. It should be June 2012, on the 6th floor of the Tourism Building, "Journey to the West. In the dressing room of the Demon Suppression Chapter, I used guò interviews to set makeup. Stephen Chow personally set the makeup for us, at first it was a Peking Opera mask, but then we were not satisfied with several changes, and finally left two mustaches. ”

Stephen Chow is a mountain-like figure to Xu Hao, an absolute idol level, and he has surpassed Stephen Chow himself. Leave a name in film history and become a generation of masters.

Therefore, when he heard about Stephen Chow, Xu Hao immediately sat upright.

Liu Zhanzhan is also very proud of his intersection with Stephen Chow: "The next day, on the set of Trade City, I came to act, and as soon as Stephen Chow saw me, he called me over and asked, 'Do you remember that line', of course I said yes, but he said, 'It's a pity.'" You should forget about it all', and then give me three minutes to ponder, 'You're the shopkeeper of a hotel, what do you say when guests come?'" ”

"It's three minutes away. Stephen Chow walked over, and I didn't want him to speak, so I took the initiative to say the lines I thought of. I remember it clearly, and I said to him, 'Welcome to our Gaojiazhuang, you have come at the right time.' By the way, I would like to introduce you to the treasure of our store, which is the famous roast pig that we slaughter fresh every day. When he heard that, he said OK. Let me speak a little faster. ”

"I had already learned cross talk ventriloquism, and I immediately accelerated him to read it, Stephen Chow asked me to go faster, and then looked at me from behind the camera, and after I finished reading, he told me 'double the speed, let's shoot it now'. When filming, he didn't go to the lounge, he just sat on the wine jar of Gao Laozhuang and used this pose. ”

Liu Zhanzhan said, personally demonstrating Stephen Chow's posture at that time, with his elbows on his knees and his hands on his head, pondering.

"At noon, it was his assistant, Chen Bingqiang, who played Zhu Bajie, who helped him cook and ate with us, the food of the Hong Kong crew was better than that of the mainland at that time, there were four dishes, I saw Stephen Chow eat a little fried meat with onions, and the amount of rice was very small. To be honest, Stephen Chow is really our extra's favorite director! ”

"I really feel that I have a common language with Stephen Chow, he can understand our tricks, I haven't finished watching any of his movies, "The King of Comedy" in "If you have to call me to play tricks, can you not add a 'death' word in front of it...... 'How profound, we extras will inevitably die', and every 'death' means a lot to us!"

"The shopkeeper I played was bombarded into scum by Shu Qi, but this time I died, my salary was suddenly increased to two thousand, and at that time I officially entered the big special sequence."

Liu Zhanzhan paused, and seemed to be a little emotional.

"Mr. Liu, tell me about your acting experience, I just came to Hengdian not long ago, and I'm curious about how you all came here." Xu Hao's scene is at nine o'clock in the morning, and there are still more than two hours before filming starts.

Listening to Liu Zhanzhan's story, the more I listened, the more flavorful it became.

……

On April 10, 2015, the morning before Xu Hao came to Hengdian, at 5:10, many people gathered at the entrance of the Hengdian Marriott Hotel. A middle-aged man sits on a folding stool, holding a piece of paper, while two people next to him hold up their mobile phones and reach above his head to illuminate him.

With the help of the light of the mobile phone, the middle-aged man read the name on the paper, and every time he shouted one, someone next to him responded to the "to".

After more than 40 people answered, one person's name was pronounced three times and no one answered.

The young man with the highest mobile phone showed a happy smile: "Brother Tao, this person didn't come, help me make up for one." ”

Brother Tao glanced at him: "I'll leave at half past five, and wait for another fifteen minutes." ”

This is the most common scene in Hengdian, which happens every day in places where actors such as the old union Dazhi Temple and Marriott Hotel are waiting for the bus, regardless of winter or summer. Tao Ge is the on-site manager of the extras, and the group performers call him "Little Team Leader".

There are more than 5,000 extras in Hengdian, and the top management is Qiu Lijun, deputy general manager of Hengdian Film and Television City Management Service Co., Ltd. Qiu Lijun has six managers of the actor management department, and more than 20 "big group heads" are responsible for the six managers, and the official title of Hengdian is "shooting site administrator".

Each large group leader has several assistants, commonly known as small team leaders, and Tao Ge is such a small team leader.

After a crew comes to Hengdian, the first thing is to sign a contract with Hengdian Film and Television City Company and pay a deposit for the salary of extras, usually 200,000 yuan, while the Film and Television City Company assigns a manager to directly connect with the crew, and the manager is responsible for the needs of the extras of the crew, and the manager will delegate the task to a large group of leaders.

Every afternoon, the assistant director in the crew who is responsible for docking with the union will send the needs of the extras to the manager, and the manager will transfer it to the big group leader, who will pick people by himself, or let the small team leader send a notice to pick people.

There will always be one or two people in those big crews, who are sick or lazy, and can't arrive on time.

At this time, some people will be like a young man holding a mobile phone, begging the team leader to make up for it, this is called "picking up leaks", not playing antiques, but simply picking up a group special performance and earning seventy or eighty yuan to subsidize the subsidy.

In September 2007, Liu Zhanzhan, who was born with a bad appearance, came to Hengdian. At that time, the salary of extras was only 20 yuan a day, and it depended on your relationship with the group leader.

"You have to be able to do something, such as handing a cigarette to the group leader from time to time." Liu Zhanzhan said in remembrance.

At that time, because he was not familiar with the situation, he didn't play for the first few days, and the hundreds of dollars he brought were reduced day by day, and the pressure of survival increased greatly. Finally, when the third group leader was called, he successfully picked up the leak and played a dead corpse.

This drama is called "The Great Porcelain Merchant", and the people played by Liu Zhanzhan died of the plague, and a man in black dragged them one by one and threw them into the pit to bury them.

Due to customs and taboos, playing special roles, the crew has to give a red envelope separately, 10 yuan for shaving the head, prostitute. 10 yuan for women, wearing linen and wearing filial piety and acting as a dead corpse were all red envelopes of 5 yuan at that time. Liu Zhanzhan, who played the corpse for a day, got the first income from Hengdian, 25 yuan.

He runs two crews a day, eats the crew's boxed lunch at noon, and eats the crew's boxed lunch at night.

When he went home at the end of the year, it was exactly 100 days, and he brought his wife 4,500 yuan.

Later, in order to run a special contract, he bought a Hongta mountain cigarette to the assistant director of the new "Jigong" crew, but the assistant director did not give him a play in the end, but the union manager took the Hongta Mountain cigarette to him and returned the Hongta Mountain Tobacco to him. Shameful and courageous, Liu Zhanzhan has practiced his acting skills hard since then, and finally ran on a special contract with his strength.

Then in 2012, in "Journey to the West. "Demon Suppression" encountered Stephen Chow and got a salary of 2,000 yuan, and since then he has entered the era of Date.

The salary is high, I make more money, I bought a house in Hengdian, my wife and children have taken it over, and now I have bought a car.

A pink southeast V6 Lingshi is not expensive, 100,000 yuan.

"I'm 41 years old this year, and I don't have big special plays every day, and when I don't have them, I go to run stage plays, hosts, emcees, and now I am in the east. Many wedding companies near Yang have cooperated with me, and there are wedding venues to find me, and the appearance fee is at least 500 once. It's not much, but the subsidy subsidizes the family, Xiao Xu, you're right. ”

Liu Zhanzhan said loudly.

Xu Hao nodded approvingly: "Yes." (To be continued.) )

PS: I don't know if everyone will think this chapter is more watery.

I originally wanted to summarize the development history of Hengdian, but after thinking about it, forget it, no one should like to watch it. So I mentioned it a little from the character of Liu Zhan.

In the past two years, Wanda has dug the foot of the wall in Hengdian very much, but I personally feel that Hengdian has become a general trend, although there are a lot of dirty, but the status is still difficult to shake.
