Chapter 315: Recruitment
In the evening, Ye Weixin invited dinner to a well-known hotel in Xiangjiang.
During this period, he also toasted a lot, but Wang Baoqiang was the first to fall.
After that, they drank a lot more, and one after another fell down, and in the end, Hong Jinbao, Jiang Bai and Ye Weixin were still sitting.
Ye Weixin called a few people from the crew to come over and send the people who had drunk back to the hotel.
If there is no accident the next day, the crew will be finished, and there is no scene to shoot during the day, and the focus is still at night.
So he wasn't in such a hurry.
Waiting for the next day, Jiang Bai ran to Wang Baoqiang's room to take a look, and after seeing that Wang Baoqiang was fine, he woke up the other party and went down for breakfast together.
"Brother Jiang, when do you say I will be able to take over a martial arts film as the protagonist like you." Wang Baoqiang said enviously.
Although he has also acted in martial arts movies before, he only played a supporting role in Jiang Bai's movie.
Seeing Jiang Bai filming one martial arts movie after another, how could he not be envious?
"This, I'll go back and find it for you, see if there is any suitable opportunity, if it really doesn't work, let's shoot one ourselves."
"It's okay, I'll just say it, there's no rush for this."
Wang Baoqiang stuffed an egg into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it before saying with a smile.
"Don't worry, you are the backbone of our company, and the company will definitely not treat you badly."
"Brother Jiang, I know this."
After breakfast, they went to the filming location together, although the last scene was to be filmed at night, but they also had to go over early and play against Hong Jinbao again.
The last fight should fully demonstrate Hong Jinbao's strength, after all, this is the eldest brother specially invited by Ye Weixin.
They still want to make some money at the box office with this movie.
It's just that Jiang Bai has always felt that the chance of making money in this movie is really small, and investing so much money means that the box office has to sell 400 million to make a small profit.
is still the same sentence, what he earns here is a salary not dividends, and how much money the movie can sell has nothing to do with him, judging from the situation in previous years, even some movies with poor box office results can get a good reputation.
For Jiang Bai now, it is enough to have a good reputation, of course, if the box office can be earned, it is an additional addition.
The cooperation with Hong Jinbao and the stand-in is very smooth, after all, Hong Jinbao used to be born in martial arts films, and even cooperated with Li Xiaolong in action movies, and he has also been an action director many times.
Including now, Hong Jinbao is basically in a semi-retired state, and rarely goes to star in any movies, but he will often take some action directors back to work, and then take his Hong family class out to work.
"Jiang Bai, in fact, you can also set up your own team, actors have to be grasped, but action design can also be grasped, which is much better than cultivating a good actor from scratch.
Action actors can go from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, and even if they don't make movies, they can be stand-ins and martial arts instructors. β
Listening to Hong Jinbao's words, Jiang Bai thought for a while: "It seems that it is indeed possible, I will go back and think about it, and set up a Jiang family class, so that when I go out to give action guidance to others in the future, I don't have to rely on myself to teach." β
"yes, I'll tell you this if I treat you as my own."
"Big brother, I know, since I came to this crew, you have always taken good care of me."
"I can't talk about taking care of you, mainly because they spoke highly of you at that time, so I can help you and help you, but if your company has any good projects in the future, you can also call my son over."
"That's all easy to say." Jiang Bai agreed.
Most of the exchanges between people are about the exchange of interests, although Wu Jing is not, nor is Zhao Wensheng, the two of them can simply be friends with themselves, but Hong Jinbao has to consider more things.
Although his status is high enough now, with the decline of the Xiangjiang film industry, their era has passed, while he is still influential, he paves the way for his son, even if he is not there in the future, or he is so old that he can't even design actions for people, at least his son can have some of his own connections.
Jiang Bai naturally knows this, in fact, he can star in "Slaying the Wolf" because his commercial value is higher than Zhen Zidan, otherwise Ye Weixin has no reason not to choose Zhen Zidan, but chooses to belong to himself completely in the mainland.
But listening to Hong Jinbao's words, Jiang Bai also thought that he could indeed consider setting up a Jiang family class.
In the evening, their night scene started filming on time.
The location is in Wang Bao's base camp, which is where Wang Bao usually entertains and talks with his subordinates.
And today's scene is to be filmed from yesterday, after defeating the killer, Ma Jun directly found Wang Bao, everything must be decided tonight.
Wang Bao has been sent to prison more than once, but every time he comes back unharmed, he is powerful and rich, here, there is nothing he can't do.
Even the police were not taken seriously by him.
But since there is no way to sanction Wang Bao through the law, Ma Jun plans to solve the problem in his own way.
In this play, Ma Jun is not a good person through and through, when Officer Chen got the videotape from the fool before, in order to be able to kill Wang Bao, he deliberately cut out the second half of the video.
After Ma Jun learned about this incident, he felt that it was a little inappropriate at first, because this way of submitting perjury was inherently unjust.
But when Officer Chen told him that there was no way to sanction Wang Bao if he didn't, Ma Jun still compromised.
It's just that even so, Wang Bao can still get away with it.
In this huge hall, Ma Jun and Wang Bao also launched a head-to-head duel
Jiang Bai is naturally very confident in playing Hong Jinbao at this age, but he definitely can't fight against Hong Jinbao like he did against Wu Jing, after all, this is filming, not really to divide life and death, he can't bully the old man.
It's just that even if they are now fighting according to the tricks they have practiced before, Jiang Bai still can't help but sigh, although Hong Jinbao is now fifty-six years old, his figure has long been fat, and he is out of shape, but his body is still extremely flexible.
The punches and kicks are very powerful.
And Hong Jinbao can also see that he is very serious, but the only thing that makes Jiang Bai feel a little difficult is that Hong Jinbao has to change to a stand-in after playing here for a while.
But he can also understand that at this age, Hong Jinbao no longer needs to go to filming, but he is at risk of getting hurt.
In this way, after the filming of this scene was finally finished, they took a break while the staff went to set up the windows.
After resting, Jiang Bai touched up the makeup on his face, and re-touched the previous blood stains and injuries.

The filming of the last scene officially started, and after finally winning against Wang Bao, Ma Jun was relieved, he came to Wang Bao's usual drinking place and poured himself a glass.
On the one hand, it is to comfort those who were killed by Wang Bao, and on the other hand, it is also to calm down.
But at this moment, Wang Bao, who Ma Jun thought had been killed by himself, suddenly appeared in the camera at this moment and strangled Ma Jun's neck.
In the end, Wang Bao pushed Ma Jun to the window like a madman, and finally broke the glass, and the two fell from dozens of stories high.
Fight like Kilkenny cats!
"Finished!"
"Thank you all for your hard work!"
Ye Weixin walked from behind the monitor with applause, and at the same time, everyone in the crew also began to applaud, unlike before, this applause was to celebrate the completion of the movie.
"Thank you, thank you to Brother Hong, thank you Jiang Bai, thank you Wu Jing, thank you to all the staff who have paid for this movie!"
After Ye Weixin finished speaking, he bowed deeply.
Then take out the red envelope from your pocket and start giving out red envelopes to everyone on the spot.
Hong Jinbao got the thickest red envelope, but Jiang Bai took a lot, and then Wu Jing and all the characters who died in the crew.
In the end, it was the staff, but no matter how many, everyone also got the red envelope.
Everyone had smiles on their faces, and they ended up taking a photo together.
The slogan is to wish "Slaying the Wolf" a box office hit!
After cleaning up the scene, Ye Weixin directly said that he would hold another celebration banquet tomorrow, and everyone who could go would go.
I just ate it yesterday, and I'm going to eat it again tomorrow.
Wu Jing also told Jiang Bai that the crew here is quite generous, and they go out for dinner at every turn.
"That's different, because the pace here is fast, everyone is filming in a hurry, day and night, even if you invite guests to dinner, you can save a lot of money.
"It's okay."
It's just that after finishing speaking, Jiang Bai saw that Wu Jing was walking a little unnaturally.
"What's the matter, Brother Jing, did you hurt your leg when you fought two days ago?" Jiang Bai asked with some concern.
"That's not it, it's my old problem, when I was 14 years old, I twisted my waist once, once to the extent of paralysis of the lower limbs, and then it took four years to recover, but I was seriously injured during the competition and my right foot was almost crippled, but then it was cured, and the next year I won several martial arts championships again under the guidance of my master.
Although I don't have a problem walking now, it still hurts every once in a while. β
Jiang Bai didn't know about this before, and no one had ever said to him before: "Then you are still very serious, now you are only in your early thirties, and it is estimated that these injuries will come out in a few years." β
"That's also something that can't be helped, who doesn't have a dark wound on someone in our business?" Wu Jing is still very optimistic, and he seems a little unimpressed by his injuries.
"I'll help you take a look at it later, although I can't cure you of this, but I can still do it with a few needles and some plasters for you to help you relieve it."
"Okay."
The next day, they went to the hotel to have a celebration party, and after that, they flew back to Yanjing.
After a few days of rest, when Jiang Bai returned to the company again, there were a few more newcomers in the company.
Zhao Zhe pulled Jiang Bai and these newcomers to the conference room.
"This is Jiang Bai, the boss of our company, I believe you all know him, he didn't have time to come back when he was filming outside, but when he comes back this time, you will know each other again, and introduce yourself to him."
The first to stand up was a chubby girl, who looked not very old, but she could see from her eyes that the other party was very shrewd: "Hello Brother Jiang, my name is Yang Tianzhen, I was recruited by Mr. Zhao, and I am currently the company's agent, responsible for everyone's brokerage work." β
After Yang Tianzhen finished speaking, Zhao Zhe added: "Xiao Yang is still very capable, when she was in high school, she was the chairman of the student federation in Nanchang, and she also got the guaranteed place of Peking University, but later there was something wrong with the escort, and she entered the directing department of Yanjing Broadcasting Institute, but later she was admitted to the director major of Communication University of China by herself, and she was also the president of the student union over there."
I have also been the chief director of Drama Night before, and I have also been on the CCTV report, and now she has just been promoted to her senior year, she was originally going to Orange Sky, but I cut her beard over. β
"Fortunately, she will be my agent in the future?"
Zhao Zhe nodded: "Yes, don't you always ask me to recruit new people to share my work?" Next, I plan to let Xiao Yang be your agent first, and if you feel that her ability is not bad, let her be your agent. β
"Yes."
Jiang Bai nodded.
Then the second person stood up: "Hello Mr. Jiang, my name is Wang Taili, this time Mr. Zhao asked me to come over as vice president, mainly responsible for the company's music and business work." β
It's just that after seeing Wang Taili, Jiang Bai felt a little familiar, although he hadn't said a few words before, he had seen each other.
When Xiao Yang was an advertising director before, he had many connections with this Wang Taili, and at that time Wang Taili was still the owner of a cultural company.
"Mr. Wang, we are old acquaintances, I am very welcome to come here, if there are any problems at work in the future, just tell me and Brother Zhao, we will strongly support you."
"Mr. Jiang is polite, Mr. Zhao and I are indeed more compatible, and our company's development is getting better and better, but it is much stronger than I was at that time, so Mr. Zhao talked to me some time ago, and I sold the company directly, and then came to work on our side."
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, the stage on our side is very big, you can play to your heart's content."
And the last one is Guo Fan.
"Hello Mr. Jiang, my name is Guo Fan.
Previously, he worked as a program packaging supervisor in the column group of China Tourism Satellite TV Asian Music Center, and this time he was mainly responsible for the company's advertising business. β
In fact, these people recruited back, and Zhao Zhe also called Jiang Bai and said.
But what Jiang Bai thought was that Zhao Zhe would be in charge of these things, anyway, recruiting people back was also to share Zhao Zhe's work.
Now they are also meeting for the first time, but as far as the first impression of these people is concerned, Jiang Bai still feels good.
"How old is Mr. Guo this year? He looks so young. β
"I'm eighty."
"That's as big as me."
"Yes, but Jiang is much more accomplished than me."
"No, no, it's just a different track."
Zhao Zhe is now the general manager of the company, responsible for the overall structure, and the brokerage work and part of the business work do not need to be done in person.
Next are the two vice presidents, Wang Taili is in charge of the music department and business, Ning Hao is in charge of the director department and the screenwriting department, that is, the content output, and Zhao Zhe is still in charge of public relations and artists.
Jiang Bai, as the chairman of the board of directors and the big boss of the company, is currently mainly a hands-off shopkeeper and regularly checks the following work, but if the company has any major decisions, it still needs to be approved by Jiang Bai.
