When he arrived in Nancheng, Mo Fengbin's friend was already waiting at the mouth of the alley. A large area here is full of bungalows, and there is no neat courtyard as Li Tang imagined, and there are many private and disorderly buildings, to put it bluntly, they are all miscellaneous courtyards.

The house is in the innermost part of the alley, covering an estimated area of 300 square meters, the house is very dilapidated, and there are still many tenants living in it.

Li Tang was not very satisfied at first glance, it doesn't matter if the house is old, it can be decorated, but the surrounding environment is too poor.

Mo Fengbin was very good at looking at it, and without waiting for Li Tang to speak, he said, "Let's go and see the Dongcheng set again." ”

The courtyard in Dongcheng is in the famous Cannon Bureau Hutong, which is not so much a hutong as a small street, very spacious, enough for two cars to drive side by side, and the alleys are thick on both sides of the acacia, but the leaves have fallen off and are bare in this season.

The yard is less than 50 meters away from the Artillery Bureau Prison, that is, the current No. 3 Detention Center in the capital, sitting in the north and facing south, although the area is smaller than the set in the south city, but it is very regular, three main houses, two wing rooms in the east and west, the yard is also quite large, and a jujube tree with years of age is planted.

The key location here is very good, to the west out of the alley is Dongzhimen North Street, east is the Berlin Temple, south is the North New Bridge. Especially after the north street of Dongzhimen, there is a large area of lush green and forest park, where is the embassy of Lao Maozi.

"The landlord is a retired old teacher, and the house has always been lived in by himself. This son has a future, he has worked in the United States and obtained his identity, and he wants to take the old couple over to support the elderly......"

Mo Fengbin's friend Balabala introduced the landlord's situation, and his face showed envy from time to time.

Yes, in recent years, Chinese people have been very yearning for foreign countries, especially the United States.

For example, Feng Xiaogang's new movie "See You or Leave", which is currently being promoted and will be released at Christmas, starring Ge You and Xu Fan, is set in the United States, and the main slogans are all filmed in the United States.

Sold the yard to go to the United States?

Li Tang felt silently distressed for the pair of retired teachers for three seconds, and then asked, "Can this price be discussed again?" ”

Although Mo Fengbin said before that the price of 600,000 yuan was close to the actual price, and the landlord refused to bargain, but the sale always has to bargain, and Li Tang is not wronged.

The friend glanced at Lao Mo in embarrassment and said, "This old couple is an intellectual, and they are a little bit of a dead person, and they said that this is the price." ”

Lao Mo saw that Li Tang really wanted to buy it, so he said: "Lao Xu, you discuss with the landlord and see if you can let a little more, my friend sincerely wants to buy it." ”

"That'...... Okay, I'll ask. ”

As he spoke, Lao Xu was about to go out and make a phone call.

"Use mine." Li Tang handed over the phone.

Nowadays, the number of mobile phones is not high, and most people are still using pagers.

Lao Xu made a long phone call, hung up and said: "The landlord promised to let 20,000 yuan, this is the final price, no matter how low it is, he will not sell it." ”

Li Tang readily agreed: "Okay, I'll buy it." ”

The next step is the issue of procedures, and the total price of intermediary fees, appraisals, transfers, deed taxes, etc., still exceeds 600,000 yuan.

Li Tang plans to make a down payment of 200,000 yuan, and the monthly repayment of the remaining loan is about more than 4,000 yuan, which is not a big problem.

After completing the entrustment procedures with the intermediary company, Li Tang let go of a matter. He usually does not spend much, and instead of putting his money in the bank to depreciate, it is better to make some investments that are sure to make money and not lose money. And the condition of this house is good, he also wants to decorate it a little, so that the capital will have a foothold in the future.

Speaking of which, this is the first time he really feels the benefits of crossing, the old apartment in Shanghai, the courtyard house in the capital, and a set of large flats bought for him by his father, even if he is lying flat now and waiting to die, he will still achieve financial freedom in a few years.

At noon, he asked Mo Fengbin and the intermediary Lao Xu to rub together to express their gratitude. Coming out of the hotel, Lao Mo hesitated and said, "Brother Li, this matter is ...... to the crew."

"Understand, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense about this."

Li Tang knew Lao Mo's scruples, after all, Xiaoyanzi was very popular now, in a sense, he was Xiaoyanzi's person, and he helped himself with this, just because he was worried about being known by Xiaoyanzi.

Interpersonal relationships are like this, if you don't want to offend people, you have to be exquisite.

……

In November, the temperature in the capital fell off a cliff, with the highest temperature during the day only about 10 degrees, and the lowest temperature falling below freezing.

In such weather conditions, it's fine to shoot interiors in a studio, but it's a sin to shoot exterior locations.

Soon the crew was pulled to the North Putuo Film and Television City in Daxing, where they will shoot a week-long location scene. Li Tang doesn't have many scenes here, the focus is on a few fight scenes, but as the main supporting role, he has a lot of scattered shots, a few lines, a few close-ups, and the rest is used as a background board.

The weather is cold, and the crew has given a batch of military coats, which is the normal state of the crew's filming in winter, military coats are cheap and durable, but they are all the same, sometimes they can't figure it out, and it's easy to mix and wear.

Although Li Tang has no habit of cleanliness, he always feels bad when he is worn by others, so he simply bought a long down jacket, a glacier brand, light and warm.

Early that morning, he drove his ex-girlfriend's small Toyota to the film and television city. He now basically devotes two days a week to his ex-girlfriend's place for a tooth sacrifice to relieve his body and mind.

The other three leading actors were not here today, Zhou Jie put on makeup, was sitting on a chair, noticed someone approaching, immediately woke up, saw that it was Li Tang, yawned and said, "Come so early?" ”

His role today is scheduled for the afternoon, but today his ex-girlfriend has a notice, he sent his ex-girlfriend to the ground early in the morning, and drove over directly.

"Idle is idle."

Li Tang smiled, took a chair, and sat down next to Zhou Jie.

"Where did you go yesterday?"

He disappears in the hotel from time to time, and it is not news in the crew for a long time, although there is speculation in secret, but he will not ask in person, after all, it involves personal privacy, most people are more interesting, but Zhou Jie is the kind that is not interesting to a very small number of people.

"Foolish!"

Li Tang snorted, and immediately changed the topic: "It's quite windy outside today, and the sun is not there, definitely not more than five degrees, and it's enough to choke when you shoot for a while." ”

"Who's to say it isn't."

Zhou Jie shook his head, his attention was successfully diverted, and then complained: "According to me, the arrangement is unreasonable, the exterior scenes should be filmed early, and the interior scenes are filmed when it's cold, how good is this." They just don't take actors seriously. ”

He is like this, if he can't get used to it, he will say it, and from time to time he will have a little friction with the crew. It's not that he is unreasonable, after all, there is some reason, and everyone who often gets out of power can't get off the stage.

To sum up: emotional intelligence is too low, and there is a lack of a door.

"Isn't the script unfinished at that time?" Li Tang said a fair word.

In fact, the project of "Returning the Pearl II" was launched quite in a hurry, and Li Tang also joined the crew before he learned that Aunt Qiongyu didn't want to make a sequel at first, because it was popular in Wanwan, and everyone saw that it was profitable, so they tried their best to persuade Auntie.

Naturally, the aunt was inevitably moved, so she struck while the iron was hot. When Li Tang signed the contract at that time, he only got half of the script, and he didn't see the complete script until a month after the start of filming.

Zhou Jie was stunned, but he still said strongly: "Then shoot what can be filmed first, and everyone will suffer less." ”

You see, I can't say he doesn't make sense, but it always sounds unpleasant.
