"You, ask this kid." Zhao Mengru said angrily, pointing at Han Fei.
Han Fei spread his hands: "It's nothing, it's just that Teacher Zhao has never played countless roles in his life, and he has never played a tomb robber..."
Jiang Qinghou was dumbfounded. Is this okay?
Zhao Mengru sneered: "Bah, brat, you really think that little trick can irritate men? If Ji Shaogang from Renyi hadn't heard about you before and had some impression of you, you would have just sent a hundred letters.
Email doesn’t work either, you understand?”
It turns out that Zhao Mengru has been acting in dramas in addition to acting in film and television dramas in recent years. The drama circle is so big. Zhao Mengru and Ji Shaogang got along well with each other. Later, "Donkey Gets Water" came out, and it was inevitable that the two of them would chat with each other.
Talking about Han Fei
, I had an impression of this name until I saw the signature at the bottom of the email a few days ago. However, thanks to Han Fei's provoking method, Zhao Mengru noticed his name. Later, after inquiring and confirming that it was correct, he came here.
Arrive at Pengcheng.
Han Fei scratched his head in embarrassment, so that was it.
I heard Zhao Mengru say again: "Do you know why I agreed to play this role without even asking for salary?"
This time Han Fei and Jiang Qinghou were really confused.
"From the first time I saw the car you picked me up in, you are a nice young man. He is down-to-earth and not too ambitious. The crew's money must be spent on the right path. It shows that you are all focusing on filming. You can be like this at such a young age.
You must realize that there will be a place for you in the film and television industry in the future." Zhao Mengru's words made Han Fei and Jiang Qinghou feel a little ashamed.
Jiang Qinghou opened his mouth to say something, but Han Fei secretly pulled him and bowed slightly to Zhao Mengru: "Teacher Zhao, we are here to promise you that every penny you spend in the future will be spent conscientiously.
I will never let you down when it comes to photography.”
"The cultivation is serious. I just can't stand those actors who are not practical in their acting. These days there are fewer and fewer crew members who are willing to work hard. I can help you as much as I can. Whether you can succeed or not depends on you.
"After Zhao Mengru finished speaking, he waved his hand.
Han Fei understood and pulled Jiang Qinghou out.
The arrival of Zhao Mengru completed the last piece of the puzzle for the crew. What surprised Han Fei the most was that Zhao Mengru actually proposed to sign the contract the next day, with a salary of only 100,000. When Han Fei asked about his agent.
Zhao Mengru's answer was: "Hey, I only earn three melons and two dates. How can the agent follow me and not starve to death? My secretary did it before, but I didn't bring him here this time. Let's just sign it like this
.”
People from Penguin Pictures were there when the contract was signed. They were all confused. Originally, they were dissatisfied with Han Fei's delay in landing a role. Who would have thought that they could actually find this person, and for 100,000? Isn't this price equivalent to giving it away for free?
? Suddenly the producer in charge of Penguin Pictures looked at Han Fei differently and thought he had some deep background.
No wonder he thought so. If Jiang Qinghou didn't know the reason, he would probably think so too. Han Fei was able to cooperate with Penguin Pictures to make a film at a young age, and Zhao Mengru lowered his salary to perform...
If this was spread, it would probably create a lot of buzz.
"Okay, the contract has been signed, do I have to make some preparations?" Zhao Mengru looked at Han Fei.
Han Fei circled him twice and said something that shocked everyone: "That's right, Teacher Zhao, you need to lose weight. You must lose at least twenty kilograms in a month. Wu San Province has been working hard all year round.
Maybe you are so... majestic."
The producer of Penguin Pictures almost stepped forward and covered Han Fei's mouth. He was already prepared for Zhao Mengru to get angry. Who doesn't know that this guy is famous for his bad temper? You can't mess with anyone, and you can't mess with him.
Losing 20 pounds in a month? It’s okay to ask a young actor. This guy is over 60. Is it good to hear this if it gets spread?
"You stupid young man, don't hold me back even if you want to die." The producer carefully moved his chair back a little, for fear that Zhao Mengru would lift the table and splash blood all over him.
Who would have thought that Zhao Mengru was not angry at all. Instead, he patted his slightly fat belly and smiled at Han Fei: "Okay, you can arrange a fitness coach for me. This middle-aged man didn't exercise properly after getting fat. I'm young."
My figure was pretty standard back then. Hey, don’t believe it. When you come back to my house, I’ll show you the photos.”
The producer was dumbfounded. How good of a relationship was this? Or was it that Han Fei's relationship was so tough that Zhao Mengru was so "submissive" that he would rather choose the latter because he had heard Zhao Mengru say it when he signed the contract?
This was the first time we met Han Fei.
After sending Zhao Mengru and Han Fei away, the producer broke out in a cold sweat and quickly called his assistant over: "Quickly, bring the production cost record for [Tomb Raiders] and redo it for me."
"Redo it? But...Boss, wasn't this just made?" the assistant asked doubtfully.
The producer yelled: "Are you stupid? Don't you have any eyesight? I didn't see Zhao Mengrudu's attitude. What a piece of shit for a small producer like me? Hurry up and redo the filing and tell my subordinates."
People, please keep your hands and feet clean, otherwise if something happens, don’t blame me for turning against you!"
"...Yes." The assistant ran away.
Qin Ming and the others had been practicing in Pengcheng for half a month, and they had not stayed with Han Fei during this period. When they suddenly saw Zhao Mengru, the three of them were stunned.
When he heard that Zhao Mengru was going to lose weight and learn martial arts routines with them, his eyes almost fell to the ground and were shattered.
Of course, Han Fei is also returning, and the entire crew is almost ready. Although he does not need to practice martial arts routines, he still needs to keep up with physical training. After all, there are many fighting and corridor climbing scenes in Tomb Raider Notes.
It would be a joke if the crew couldn't keep up physically and held back the crew.
Not to mention, after half a month of training, Jin Boyuan has lost at least ten kilograms. Although he is still very fat, his skills have indeed improved a lot. Well, he is already a flexible fat man.
The muscles on Qin Ming's body have also gained a bit of water chestnuts, but the most obvious change is that he has grown a stubble, and he looks much more mature.
Xie Buchen has not changed much at all, but he has become very proficient in somersaults and other movements, and by then he will even save money on a substitute.
Of course, the crew did not stop this month. The construction of the underground palace was not delayed for a day, and the props team was also busy making various props.
Finally, a month later, the construction of the underground palace was completed. The crew also specially chose a good and auspicious day to seal the earth. After all, they were filming a "tomb robbing" scene, so it was better to be auspicious. The underground palace was built in an inland county, which happened to be surrounded by mountains.
There is water. Han Fei and Jiang Qinghou selected this place as the main shooting location during their previous inspection.
Of course, plots like the Corpse Cave still need to be post-produced in a studio with a green screen.
"Phew, it's finally about to turn on!" Jiang Qinghou was so excited that he couldn't sleep at all at night, and it wasn't until late at night that he managed to count 3568 sheep...
