Chapter 004: The troubled crew, and Meng Ga who released the pigeons
"Hengdian?"
Wu Sin's brows furrowed, and there was some doubt in his eyes.
For the city .... Or it can be said that it is a region, he is actually the same as most ordinary people.
I only know that it is a place for filming, it is the film and television center of Hanxia, and many TV series and movies are produced there.
But they never have a deep understanding of it, and they don't have the idea of going there.
"How? Why don't you try a walk-and-go trip? ”
Pei Jianing smiled slightly.
"I won't leave too far, I can start immediately, and I can come back after playing, so I should relax and take a vacation to my mood, which is also good for my next mentality."
"Then I'll let you bring something ....." Wu Sin was a little speechless and stopped.
"Oh, isn't it just a salted fish, and it can't be broken."
Pei Jianing said indifferently.
This is what Wu Sin asked her to help bring, some specialties from the family, handmade pollution-free salted fish, and some dried seafood.
They were born in a small seaside town, Pei Jianing went back to his hometown by the way when he came back from the army, but Wu Sin did not go back, so Wu Sin asked Pei Jianing to bring some hometown specialties.
......
And at this moment, on the other side.
Hengdian Film and Television City, the filming scene of the crew of "Giant Owl".
"Ugh...."
At this moment, Zhou Ming, who is the director of "Giant Owl", is almost sighing to the Pacific Ocean, and he has a posture of exacerbating global warming by letting his sigh out.
Because just like the state shown by Zhou Ming at this moment, he is indeed quite worried.
As a rookie director, Zhou Ming has just graduated from the directing department of Shanghai Film and Television Academy, which can be regarded as the accumulation of the first step as a director.
Originally, he was also ambitious, about to display his talents, and he also had a lot of imagination for his future. Just like every young person who has just stepped into this circle, Zhou Ming also has his own dreams, hoping to make a hit film of his own.
This "Giant Owl" is a work that he has been polishing for nearly four years, and since the beginning of his campus days, he has been planning this work while accumulating himself.
The script was written by himself, and everything came from his own hands.
He is very confident in his story, and he firmly believes that once this film can be made, it will definitely be favored in the market.
But.... Here's the problem.
When he was on campus, he thought perfectly.
When he really took that step of his own, he really realized how naïve his ideas were, and how difficult it was to really make a good film.
The impetuosity of this circle is far beyond his imagination.
The first is the issue of sponsorship.
Originally, according to Zhou Ming's idea, such an excellent film would definitely be able to easily attract a bunch of sponsors, so that he would not have to worry about his funds.
However, when he really took the information to the door to solicit sponsorship, the script, as well as the things prepared by Zhou Ming, people didn't even look at it, and asked straight to the point, how many well-known actors there were.
But Zhou Ming is just a poor student who has just graduated, and he hasn't even set up his own private studio, where does he get the capital to invite those well-known actors?
The whole film is basically the fresh students from his school who have good acting skills.
So, he begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother, and only then did he get an investment of 5 million.
The only one, a barely well-known actor, is also a relationship he has had for a long time, plus he begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother and found a 'former actor', because he is a current Internet celebrity.
It was a tough guy actor named Meng Ga, who once filmed works that were popular all over the country when the actor was young, and the TV series with the theme of the Anti-Japanese War still has a high reputation to this day.
It's just that this Meng Ga seems to have not performed in film and television works for a long time now, and when Zhou Ming just found him, he was still running a live broadcast, happily selling his wine.
In the end, it was Zhou Ming who used one-fifth of the funds with the largest salary he could afford to bring this only well-known actor in his group out of the mountain.
And Meng Ga wants to play the most important villain role in this movie, a big drug lord.
It is because of the discovery of Meng Ga that this film has reached its current stage.
The preliminary work has been fully prepared, and after the start-up ceremony, the shooting will start directly!
But here's the problem, since the planning is complete, it stands to reason that he should be happy, but why is Zhou Ming so troubled at the moment?
The reason is actually very simple, because not long ago, he worked so hard to find the pillar, a life-saving straw, nothing else!
Yes, it's the former well-known actor and current Internet celebrity, Meng Ga, who pigeoned him!
It wasn't long before filming started, but suddenly Meng Ga asked for a salary increase, the reason is that he has a well-known work for the whole people, and his popularity is a household name, so he shouldn't just get such a salary.
So, he asked on the spot to let Zhou Ming increase his salary by another 1 million!
This almost made Zhou Ming spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Originally, the funds were limited, and he took out 1 million as a salary to invite that Meng Ga out of the mountain, and he had already made a lot of determination, and he gritted his teeth and took it out after enduring the feeling of a heart attack.
What if this is added? He didn't know if the funds were enough to make the film, after all, he was already nervous, and he had already done a penny to break it in half.
And now it's happening again?
Zhou Ming naturally can't agree to this kind of request no matter what, anyway, the contract has been signed, and the other party can't run away, right? After all, breach of contract is subject to liquidated damages.... Although he was grateful, he did not set much liquidated damages.
But in fact, there are a lot of them!!
But he never expected it.
Meng Ga really slipped directly on the soles of his feet.....
The last words he left were.
"I'm still not suitable for this kind of drug lord role, after all, you also understand, I have always been a person with a very upright image, and I am still suitable to be a gentleman standing in the sun."
However, it didn't take long for Zhou Ming to refuse to increase his salary, and the crew of "Fierce Man Sniper" next door directly issued an official announcement.
will be co-presented with the national childhood idol, Meng Ga, the annual tough guy drama, "Fierce Man Sniper".
It's almost like having a capital letter engraved on my face.
Originally, the crew next door was very different from him, he stood in front of others, like a stinky brother, there was no row at all, and people could smoke him to death if they farted.
Now it's okay, the pillars that I finally found were also poached.
This made the crew, which had already planned to start filming, directly fall into a shutdown, and Zhou Ming directly entered a dilemma.
This made Zhou Ming so anxious that his liver hurt.
This is temporary, let him go where to find an actor, there are few people who are suitable for this kind of role, let alone professional, there are not many professional actors who can handle this kind of role.
"If God can drop one down, and then that person is suitable for everything, and he looks like a villain, it would be great....."
Of course, Zhou Ming also knew that he was daydreaming, how could this kind of thing happen?
