October 20, evening.

Cao Jun arrived at Xiangshan Film and Television City and met with the bearded Zhang Jizhong.

On October 21st, the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" officially started shooting at Xiangshan Film and Television City.

By the way, as a gold medal producer, Big Beard is extremely shrewd.

When establishing cooperation with scenic spots such as Jiuzhaigou Valley, Zhang Jizhong was not only able to persuade them to provide free filming locations, but also persuaded several regional governments to establish film and television cities for the filming of TV series.

For example, the film and television city where "Dragon" was filmed in Dali, Yunnan, and the Xiangshan Film and Television City in Zhejiang were built to coordinate with the filming of "Dragon" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" respectively.

With such a producer who is proficient in art and business, he can naturally entertain the audience at the best cost performance.

Of course, Zhang Jizhong is not only a shrewd producer, but also a complete "actor".

However, this actor is not belittling him, but Zhang Jizhong is very addicted to acting. His favorite is to make a cameo in his own Jin Yong martial arts drama, and he almost never returns to it.

For example, Wang Jiantong, the former leader of the Beggar Gang in "Dragon", Wang Chongyang in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", etc. Although their roles are not many, they show how much the bearded man loves acting.

But this time, just two days after arriving in Xiangshan, Zhang Jizhong set his sights on the role of Yelu Chucai in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in order to satisfy his acting addiction.

Of course, Zhang Jizhong didn't just start thinking about playing the role of Yelu Chucai in the past two days, but he had already decided on this role in his mind before filming started.

Although it was a guest appearance and there were only a few scenes in total, Zhang Jizhong still offered himself a salary of 20,000 yuan per episode.

As for Cao Jun, the leading actor who does his job, his salary for one episode is only 6,000 yuan.

Liu Qianqian's salary is the same as Brother Cao, which is also 6,000 yuan.

In fact, Cao Jun and Liu Qianqian's salary is almost the same as Fu Ge's filming "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Fu Ge was paid a daily salary of 2,000 yuan per day, and one episode was shot in three days, which was about 6,000 yuan per episode.

In order to avoid Cao Jun's dissatisfaction, Zhang Jizhong deliberately found an opportunity to explain to Cao Jun: "Cao Jun, my salary is not high, right? I actually just want to thank the brothers for their hard work."

"I have already thought about it. If I take the money, I will give 10,000 yuan to treat the brothers from the cultural drama troupe to a meal, and 10,000 yuan to treat the brothers from the martial arts troupe to a meal."

Cao Jun smiled and complimented: "Director, you are really the patriarch of our crew. I know that if the brothers follow you, they will definitely have something to eat."

Hearing Cao Jun's praise, Zhang Jizhong smiled modestly and said: "It should, it should, everyone is working so hard, and I should also find ways to benefit everyone."

Of course, that's true. As for whether Zhang Jizhong enriched his own pockets or kept his word, no one can say for sure.

The Chapter Center thinks the same way. With the money I earn through my own skills, why should I treat you to dinner? So what if I don’t? What can you do to me?

Cao Jun doesn't care, I gave you 1.5 million, why do I care about how much you get as a salary?

Besides, aren’t you the one who has the final say on the entire cast of “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”?

However, after filming the scenes in Jiuzhaigou and the crew moved to Xiangshan Film and Television, Cao Jun's attitude towards Zhang Jizhong was no longer as submissive as before.

If something unreasonable is encountered during the filming process, Cao Jun will also put forward his own opinions and argue with Zhang Jizhong.

By the way, nearly 1/3 of the drama has been filmed, and it is too late to change roles now. The Zhang Ji Center knows very well that Cao Jun's wings have become hard now, and it is not suitable to use the role change as a bargaining chip to scare Cao Jun.

Moreover, Zhang Jizhong and Cao Jun were also insider transactions, which were not suitable to be put on the table. As long as Cao Jun could maintain respect for him and make sense, he would reluctantly consider accepting it.

In the blink of an eye, it is already the end of October, and the weather in the south has begun to get colder. In Xiangshan, Zhejiang, the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is still filming intensively.

If we say that when we were filming in Jiuzhaigou, Liu Qianqian was the most busy actor in the entire cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

So, after arriving at Xiangshan, Cao Jun's workload in one day on the crew of "The Condor" was definitely the undisputed first among the crew.

Almost unstoppable, Cao Jun gets up at five o'clock every day to put on makeup, sets off at six-thirty, shoots in two groups, and doesn't return to the hotel until after one o'clock late at night...

For example, this morning, Cao Jun changed into three outfits in a row to play Yang Guo of different ages.

Fortunately, after the difficult training in Jiuzhaigou, Cao Jun has been able to adapt to this kind of high-intensity work and can easily switch performance levels.

After finishing the ancient tomb scene in the morning, the martial arts team B moved to the station in Xiangshan Film and Television City to shoot the scene in which Yang Guo and Lu Wushuang used Yelu Chucai to avoid Li Mochou. Yelu Chucai, played by Zhang Jizhong, will also appear soon.

It was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. Yang Guo, played by Cao Jun, was suddenly chased by a group of tourists. After finally escaping, Cao Jun squeezed into an inn where the crew was resting temporarily.

After changing into the brown suit that the adult Yang Guo first appeared in, the costume designer brought over a set of Taoist priest uniforms.

Unexpectedly, wearing a simple Taoist priest uniform on Cao Jun also showed his chivalrous character.

On the other side, Zhang Jizhong, who plays Yelu Chucai, is dressed in gorgeous clothes. He deserves to be the prime minister of the Yuan Dynasty. His outfit is really out of this world. He wears a piece of whole fox fur on his head, cuffs, and clothes.

They all have furs of various colors, which look very elegant.

Here Cao Jun and Yang Rui, who plays Lu Wushuang, are discussing how to avoid Li Mochou's pursuit. Over there, Zhang Jizhong saw that he had no chance, so he went to the director to "ask" for half an hour's leave, and "sneaked" to other groups to inspect

Already.

When Yelu Chucai returned to the scene after the inspection, Yang Guo was taken to have his headgear changed again. When he reappeared, he was already dressed in Mongolian clothing, playing opposite Zhang Jizhong in Yelu Chucai's carriage.

This shooting process made everyone burst into laughter from time to time.

It turned out that Zhang Jizhong always had problems in front of the camera. One moment, he forgot to take off his watch, and when he raised his hand, he wore his watch. The sharp-eyed Yu Min saw it and said loudly, "Director, your watch has been worn!" After a while,

Zhang Jizhong's cell phone suddenly rang again.

Cao Jun continued the lines of the play and said jokingly: "Our prime minister, you have answered the phone."

It was supposed to be a scene in which Yelu Chucai was kidnapped. Zhang Jizhong was also amused by Cao Jun's improvisation.

Zhang Jizhong saw the humor in Cao Jun, and he suddenly felt that if he wanted to film "The Deer and the Cauldron" in the future, he could let Cao Jun try Wei Xiaobao.

The martial arts group B ended their work amidst laughter, but Cao Jun's day's work was not over yet.

When the staff were packing up and leaving, Cao Jun didn't even bother to have dinner and started another round of modifications.

At this time, Cao Jun will put on the costume that the costume designer simply calls "armor suit"...

After filming for a day, Cao Jun, Meng Guangmei, who plays Li Mochou, and Yang Rui, who plays Lu Wushuang, returned to their hotel together. It was already 1 o'clock in the morning.

Standing next to Meng Guangmei, whose measurements are 36/24/36cm and height is 178cm, Cao Jun's official height of 182cm instantly becomes invisible.

Meng Guangmei is very sensible and has never made fun of Cao Jun's height. In addition, she is the host of Phoenix TV and knows how to chat with people.

Therefore, after getting along for a period of time, Cao Jun and Meng Guangmei became close friends of the opposite sex.

However, Cao Jun did not have a deep impression of Meng Guangmei, a woman who was an actress, model, and host in his previous life.

Cao Jun only remembered that she seemed to have been defrauded of hundreds of millions by her foreign boyfriend, and this incident even made the news, but she did not know the specific circumstances.

After getting off the bus, Cao Jun felt a little hungry. He saw a roadside stall operating near the hotel and there was no one there, so he asked Meng Guangmei and Yang Rui: "Would you like to go get something to eat?"

Yang Rui, who has been busy losing weight recently, swallowed her saliva, shook her head and said, "I'm not going, you can go."

Meng Guangmei didn't want to go at first, but when she saw Cao Jun going to have supper alone and seemed a little lonely, she said, "I'll go with you."

Cao Jun also felt that someone was accompanying him to eat the late-night snack, and it tasted more delicious, so he said, "Let's go, Sister Guangmei."

Later, Cao Jun and Meng Guangmei went to a late-night snack stall and randomly ordered a portion of stir-fried bean sprouts, two portions of green vegetables, and a large bowl of beef offal soup.

Fortunately, it was late at night and there were no customers around. Cao Jun and Meng Guangmei ate at a roadside stall together without anyone disturbing them.

Cao Jun and Meng Guangmei were upright, not afraid of shadows, as if there was no one around, and they were not afraid of being photographed by reporters.

The two of them chatted and laughed while enjoying the cold wind, drinking soup and eating a meal, which was quite comfortable.
Chapter completed!
