Chapter 215, Li Mingyu's daily life

Now that the filming process of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" has been finalized, the following is the preparation, and someone must be responsible for these, and Lei Weidong, the big boss, can retreat behind the scenes.

Because the time in the United States is very tight, Lei Weidong refused Spielberg and others to stay, left industrial magic, and now it is about to be the end of January, and it can be said that there are not a few days before the Spring Festival, but he promised a few women, and when the time comes, he will go back to accompany them for the Spring Festival, so things in the United States must be stepped up.

Li Mingyu has been more comfortable and boring in the past few months, he is in his 20s this year, after being hired by Lei Weidong as the only employee of MSI Films America last year, he resigned from his original job as a tour guide and concentrated on the work of the film company, while continuing to look for a crew that runs tricks, hoping to use this as a pedal to enter the Hollywood entertainment industry.

It's just that in the past few months, Li Mingyu has the feeling that MSI Movie America Co., Ltd. is similar to a leather bag company, although it has a fixed office address and a good car for transportation, but the whole company has no funds, no equipment, no personnel, just the name of the film company, and it is not able to shoot movies at all.

It can be said that Li Mingyu was bored during this time, because the company didn't have much to do, mainly to pay rent, water and electricity and other taxes, as well as cleaning and receiving letters. And Lei Weidong gave a very high salary. It's much better than my original job as a tour guide.

It's just that in days like this, it's okay to do it at first, but once it's been a long time, you can't stand it. Because Li Mingyu is, after all, a young man in his twenties, it can be said that it is the time when he is full of energy, and this kind of life of sitting in a company all day long, 9 to 5 in the morning, is only suitable for those forty or fifty-year-old old comrades, and it is not suitable for him at all.

It can be said that if it weren't for the high salary given by Lei Weidong, the large amount of rent that he could live here, and the cruelty of Hollywood, Asians like himself would not have been able to find any good jobs at all, and Li Mingyu really wanted to quit his job.

As for playing tricks in other crews, it's a pity that because of Hollywood's natural discrimination against skin color, although Lee Mingwoo worked hard, he only played a trick in five crews during this time, and unfortunately they were all roles with no lines or even a positive one.

Among them, there are two characters who show the background, two characters who play dead corpses on the ground, and the remaining one is also a passerby, the camera flashed, and he didn't even shoot his face, and the money he earned was more than 200 US dollars, if it weren't for relying on Lei Weidong, this money wouldn't even be enough to eat, no wonder those girls wanted to exchange their bodies for money in order to survive.

You must know that girls don't want to be themselves, in order to dress up beautifully, the cost is definitely not easy.

Fortunately, a few days ago, Li Mingyu's luck took a turn for the better, Lei Weidong called from Hong Kong, saying that he would come over before the Spring Festival, and he would collect more scripts by himself, and he might invest in one or two movies at that time.

This news can be a pie in the sky for Li Mingyu, although he said that he was the best of the tricks in the movie, but after all, he was an actor registered in the actors' union.

Plus he is now the only employee of the company.

Now that the company has decided to make a movie, although the protagonist himself will definitely not be able to play, there is always hope for the supporting role! If you take 10,000 steps back, you can't play even a supporting role, but a passer-by with a few shots and a few words is always okay, which is a hundred times better than the role that Li Mingyu took on before.

As for the boss who said that he was collecting scripts, Li Mingyu didn't have to bother collecting them at all, you must know that Li Mingyu had collected thousands of scripts in the past few months.

This is the only joy of Li Mingyu's work.

It's the 70s, and the Internet hasn't existed yet, but it's not 30 years later, after 30 years, there are many people who can stay at home for a long time without leaving home, thus giving birth to the two terms otaku otaku.

But that's because of the presence of computers and the Internet, and these people can stay at home because they can pass the time by communicating with people in the virtual world on the computer.

What now! Although the life in the United States is much richer than that of the mainland and Hong Kong, and there is everything in this villa, TV and everything, but the defect of not being able to communicate with people is unbearable, after all, human beings are social creatures.

In the past few months, what can relieve Li Mingyu's boredom is that many screenwriters and actors come to MSI Films America every day to recommend themselves, either to promote their scripts, or to promote themselves in the hope of having the opportunity to play a role, God knows how these people found their own remote place.

You know, MSI Cinema America, Inc. is in the suburbs. However, this also shows that the employment environment in Hollywood is very bad now. Even if there are so many people coming to such a remote place, it is estimated that there are even more people like the eight major Hollywood studios.

For these actors and screenwriters who came to the door, Li Mingyu was very well received, and there was no way that this was his only fun now.

However, what Li Mingyu didn't expect was that because of his attitude, those who came to the door had hope, thinking that he was now interested in making a movie, but he didn't find a suitable script. As soon as the news spreads, the more people come here every day.

As a result, Li Mingyu collected thousands of scripts in just a few months.

Collecting so many scripts, Li Mingyu also felt very scared, you must know that he has no movies to make now, and the boss Lei Weidong doesn't know if he has a plan, and Li Mingyu has the courage to call and ask.

can only drag the reply one day at a time, and when those people's interest wanes, it is estimated that there will not be so many people coming over every day.

"Lei Shao! Early! Seeing that Lei Weidong came to the company early in the morning, Li Mingyu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"It's not early! It's almost nine o'clock now! Lei Weidong smiled and responded. What's going on in the company lately? ”

"No thunder! Now everything is normal in the company, except that people often come to the door to sell scripts, there is nothing else! Li Mingyu hurriedly told the story of this period of time.

"Okay, Brother Li, let's talk about specific things on the road! Someone recommended me a film company with full facilities. You can come with me to have a look, and if you can, you can buy it, and it will be convenient for the company to shoot movies in the future! Unlike now, MSI is just a leather bag company, and even if you make movies, you have to go out to pick up equipment. ”

"Understood, Lei Shao!" After listening to Lei Weidong's words, Li Mingyu was very happy, and now it is clear that the boss is going to do a big job, otherwise why buy equipment from other film companies, isn't it for filming.
