Chapter 733 Something Happened
As he said that, producer Liu whispered: "Or you should deduct ten yuan per person. If they rebel, I will tell you, and just say that the crew will give you so much, and I will not dare to do anything."
When Liu Chen heard this, he said, "Why should I deduct them ten dollars? They earn hard-earned money. Is this what people do if they deduct their money?"
Liang Sheng was shocked and looked at Liu Chen like a monster, shouting: "Hey! Are you pretending to be stupid to me? You are such a fucking bad guy! Who will we go if we don't eat actors? Do you think you have another salary? Didn't your group's money be deducted from them? Are you pretending to be good people here and you can charge for a noble person! When the money comes to my hands, I only deducted five yuan per person. If you have a genital, you should ask the producer director to tell me! Do you understand the rules? "
Liang Sheng left with a sneer.
Liu Chen looked at it, and then advised him to hold his arm in the afternoon and said, "Xiao Liu, can you stop causing trouble? Do you really don't understand or pretend not to understand? This is the rule. This industry has always been like this. The producer offers money, and the director already knew it was like this when he approves money. Everyone thinks this is the right thing! Zhang Yimou, Brother Chen Kai, even American directors have to follow the local customs when they come to China to film. What are you going to do with him? "
Liu Chen was stunned. For the first time, he felt that the crew was very different from what he had thought before.
The man continued, "Our money is also in it. The extras are paid out, and the producer will deduct ten yuan. We will deduct another five yuan from each producer. The rest is their money. For those 100 yuan a day, you will deduct fifteen yuan and give them seventy yuan. This is a rule, an iron rule, do you understand? You, listen to your brother, we have a conscience. Some group leaders only give them fifteen yuan a day, and there are ten yuan! If you want to make more money, will he not say it just now? Or you can deduct ten yuan!"
Liu Chen said: "I'll talk to the producer director!"
Several group leaders smiled embarrassedly while looking at Liu Chen like an ignorant child.
The man smiled and said, "Then go! Be careful that the whole group will be kicked out tomorrow. The person who hates the most in this industry is the person who breaks the rules. Do you think you are the boss of the film company? Brother, you are just a small group leader, with a bunch of mud legs. You are a contractor on the construction site. The producer director sees you?"
Several group members laughed and clapped their hands and parted.
Liu Chen thought, right. Although I am the major shareholder of Tangren, my current identity is a group leader. If I reveal my identity directly, I am afraid that these group leaders will not be able to continue. Every explanation of Wang Lai’s tasks is that since I am a group leader, I will use the group leader to solve the problem.
When they returned to the lodge, they lived in the base guesthouse, with two people in the group and six extras in one room, and a kang.
Liu Chen entered the extra's room and distributed the money to them. These honest men were very happy with the money they had received.
The person who made a mistake today lowered his head and didn't say anything. He also knew the rules. The money would definitely be detained. Even so, as long as he was asked to continue working, I would be grateful. Liu Chen took out a hundred pieces from himself and handed them to him, saying, "This is for you alone. The crew still knows your hard work and has never forgotten your share."
The young man looked at Liu Chen suspiciously, and his eyes suddenly lit up with surprise. He was beaten hard and sprayed so much water. After being tired for a day, it seemed that it was worth it. But he knew the rules and did not dare to reach out to pick it up.
Liu Chen said kindly: "Your name is Xiaochun, right? I heard that there is a beautiful girlfriend in your hometown waiting for you to make money and go home to marry her. You deserve this money, take it."
The strong young man didn't say anything when he encountered such treatment. His eyes were covered with crystal mist. Liu Chen shouted: "Grass, I'll take it as soon as I ask you to take it, and I'm so tedious like a woman. Do you don't want to go to work tomorrow?"
Xiaochun then took the money, her eyes were full of gratitude, and she said with a choking feeling: "Thank you, boss."
Liu Chen went to the female extra again and shared the money. The rural women cherished it and handed it over to an older and trusted elder sister. The elder sister carefully wrapped the money with a handkerchief and put it in a close-fitting place, pressing it with her hands and pressing it.
Liu Chen remembered the words of the producer and group leader just now, and looked at these simple people, and felt uncomfortable. His personality couldn't stand this.
Liu Chen had just walked into the corridor and asked a group of extras to stop him. The leader said, "Boss, we are not right today!"
Liu Chen sighed and said, "It's all for you to bring back."
"This is wrong!" An old man in the leader became anxious when he heard this and said loudly: "Boss, how can you give us all? You have your money here! We take away all the money, so much more. This is a big deal! Villagers, please give me the Mengtou part!"
After answering repeatedly, a man inside took three hundred pieces from everyone's hands and stuffed them into Liu Chen's hands, which was warm.
The old man said, "Boss, based on the head, one person is deducted five yuan. We know the rules. There should be 200 yuan in total, and there is still 100 yuan to buy you a small wine. It's just that we mean. You are a good person, and you have us in your heart. We know. Don't dislike it if you have less money, don't dislike it."
Liu Chen was about to think about it, and looked at them with sincerity and nodded, "Everyone, have a break early, there will be more tiring scenes to shoot tomorrow."
Liu Chen went downstairs to the store to buy something, and walked back with a plastic bag. When he came back, he saw a group of people gathering around and drinking. He saw a man who was staggering and staggering.
Another man cursed: "Idiot! I was scolded by the director today. Will I die if I step on you a few times? I'll dance your mother and dance, my mother and I think you guys deserve to be beaten up!"
Liu Chen walked in and saw that it was the producer Liang Sheng. Xiaochun was beaten. Other extras in the same group stood aside and wanted to persuade him, but Liang Sheng stared at him and was silent and dared not move.
Liang Sheng screamed, covered his face and squatted on the ground and screamed. Liu Chen sneered and shouted: "The murder is just a lie. Even if the extras make mistakes, you have taught you a lesson on the spot and deducted the money. What else do you want?"
The followers were stunned for a moment, and immediately came to their senses. They shouted and raised their sleeves and were about to come up. One of them was holding a stick and hitting Liu Chen.
Liu Chen shouted loudly, with a murderous look on his face, and couldn't help looking at each other. None of them dared to come up again and helped producer Liang Sheng leave in a hurry.
Looking at the few people walking away in a mess, Liu Chen shook his head and said nothing. He understood the helplessness of these extras and did not dare to offend Liang Sheng.
Xiaochun heard Liu Chen's words just now. He was already suspicious. It turned out that the boss took out the money and gave it to him. He stood up for him. He knelt on the ground with a thud, and tears of gratitude were overflowing. He was also a bloody man, saying, "Boss, Xiaochun's life will be yours in the future."
Liu Chen helped him up and said, "Go back to bed early, and work will start tomorrow."
Liu Chen returned to the dormitory and had to soak the noodles in boiling water and started eating it hot.
Another group leader said: "How can you offend the producer for a mistaken extra? Hurry up and buy something and take the initiative to apologize. Maybe there is room for recovery, otherwise you will be miserable."
Liu Chen smiled and said nothing.
I didn't sleep for long, and the yelling sounds were all loud.
Producer Liang Sheng led several props teams, and the big man from the art team rushed up, saying that he wanted to destroy the boy named Liu.
Liu Chen jumped up from the bed and walked out of the room alone calmly.
When the group of people saw Liu Chen coming, they were all loud and small, and no one was willing to rush up first.
The lights in each room were on.
The dozens of rural men brought by Liu Chen heard that they were here to take charge and stood behind Liu Chen one by one.
These farmer farmers who have grown up in the fields are as strong as mountains. They are usually used to being bullied and don’t feel that they are bullied. Once someone stands up for them, they become very tough and become astonishing as they see the chaotic shaking.
These people didn't expect that these extras would be so united and would never dare to say "tick".
Liang Sheng plucked up his courage to step forward and said to Liu Chen: "Boy, this matter is not over. The director said that you group will not be used to play tomorrow. Get out of here, leave the base quickly. Otherwise..."
Liu Chen said calmly: "Or how about you?"
The director didn't even put it in Liu Chen's eyes. Before he came, he told Cai Yun that he didn't have to tell others to complete the task that Wang Lai started quietly. Otherwise, the entire crew would have to revolve around Liu Chen, so how can he film?
The momentum couldn't scare Liu Chen at all, and there were not enough people. Liang Sheng was embarrassed for a long time, then turned around and left.
Early the next morning, Liu Chen brought his own group of extras to the crew, but was told that he could not arrange the group of extras. Producer Liang Sheng looked at Liu Chen fiercely, with contempt and hilarious at the corner of his mouth. Liu Chen thought to himself whether it was you who said the crew alone, so he went directly to find director Wu Jinyuan. The director came from Xiangjiang and smoked a big cigar and said indifferently: "You group of actors will not have to play in the future."
Before Liu Chen could explain, the director shouted: "Go out."
Liu Chen thought about it, but he didn't think of a good solution for a moment. Unless he showed his identity, he refused to admit defeat. Can't he solve the problem of his subordinates as a group leader? When he walked out, the director snorted: "Newcomers who don't understand the rules should get out as soon as possible."
