The crew of the Sewing Machine Band set up in Yanjing. The crew of three to four hundred people did not cause much sensation in the local area. Every year, there are too many crews filming in the big city of Yanjing, including Lao Mouzi, Xu Laomo, Xiaogangpao, and Zhao Baogang.
...Dapeng, a new director, is not yet ranked.
Tianji showed his belly and Fang Jing came to the set without saying hello in advance.
After investing tens of millions, he had the right to know what the shooting was like. The data submitted by Dapeng alone could not be taken seriously. Some things had to be seen to be believed.
This industry is too deep. A few days ago, Sohu, Dapeng's old employer, invested more than 60 million to film a TV series called Routine. After more than a month, the crew ran out of money just after the sixth episode.
After a search, I found out that a prop knife cost more than 3,000, gas cost 700 to 800 a day, rag shoes 420, and lunch boxes for the crew 40,000 to 50,000. Everything from the set to the transportation fee was doubled.
A second-rate director and a group of third-rate actors dare to do this, and they are cheating a big domestic company. This shows how lucrative this industry is, and it is really a routine.
After suffering a dumb loss, it was useless to file a lawsuit. Sohu could not sue itself. The crew declared bankruptcy, so the matter could only be settled.
When Fang Jing came to the set, he didn't let anyone follow him, so he went up to take a look. The old streets were obviously staged scenes.
Fang Jing smiled when he saw Guanghui Street, Haikuo Road, Sky Street, Hotel California, and Coburn Plastic Surgery Hospital. Dapeng really knows how to adjust his emotions. In his previous life, he really didn't notice these details when he watched the Sewing Machine Band.
During playback, these images disappear in a flash, and people with weak eyes cannot detect them.
"Hey! Who is that? Stop running around and come here to get breakfast."
A voice came from behind, and Fang Jing turned around. The stage manager was calling him, thinking he was an extra.
"Okay, here we come." He was not polite if he had breakfast, but he happened to have nothing to eat in the morning.
"Gah!"
As if being struck by lightning, the stage manager was stunned. Who was this? They looked so similar. It couldn't be true. Why did Fang Jing come back to them?
"Hello, I'm Fang Jing, one of the investors of the crew. I'd like to have breakfast."
Simple and direct, without any nonsense, Fang Jing revealed his identity as the investor's father when he opened his mouth.
The group leader knows how many group members he leads every day, and some of them have a lot of acquaintances. Not only do they know them all, but they should recognize them when they meet.
It is almost impossible for Fang Jing to pretend to be a member of the group, he can only show his identity.
"Hello, nice to meet you." The stage manager who handed out breakfast recognized Fang Jing, smiled bitterly, and gave him an actor's breakfast.
Regardless of whether what Fang Jing said is true or not, it's not a big deal to give him breakfast. If he dares not to give such a big shot face, the assistant director will fire him in a minute.
After eating breakfast, Fang Jing found a corner to sit down. At around seven o'clock, the cast and crew began to arrive.
"Little girl, you are here to film at such a young age. Do the adults in the family know?" Fang Jing ran over to see a seven or eight-year-old girl wearing a butterfly hairpin eating the crew's breakfast.
"I'm going to be a big star in the future, of course I want to film, and my mother sent me here." Aojiao glanced at Fang Jing, and the girl continued to eat her food.
"Then if you don't go to class, what will happen if you fail in the course? Don't fail the exam."
"I want to go, but I took a leave during filming. I will go to a cram school during the winter and summer vacations to make up for it. The teachers there are very good and will not delay the class."
"Really? It seems I have underestimated you." Fang Jing said with a smile, "How are you doing on the set? Did the director scold you? Is your acting good?"
"Humph, I am an actor who has acted in several dramas. Brother Dapeng and Sister Naza are also very good to me."
In order to film this movie, she started practicing piano last year, and now she has been able to pass the exam for more than a year.
"Hey, I can't tell you are still an experienced actor and a big star. How much is your salary?"
"I won't tell you." She pouted and shook her head. In fact, she didn't know how much her salary was. Her mother said she would keep it for herself and give it to herself when she grows up.
But every time I asked her about it, she said there was no money to study? No money to eat? No money to pay for rent, water, electricity, and homework during the winter and summer vacations? After asking her several times, she didn’t know that she could eat and spend so much.
"and you……"
"Xixi! Put on makeup! Where did this girl go?"
"Yes... call me, let's go first... um." After finishing her food quickly, the little girl wiped her hands on her clothes, her bulging cheeks made it difficult to speak clearly.
"Why are you here?" At the corner, Na, who was wearing a high ponytail and a white dress, came over and was startled when she saw Fang Jing.
"Hello!" Fang Jing waved and nodded with a smile.
With a pursed smile, Naza said: "Hello, is Mr. Fang coming to visit the class?"
"No, I just stopped by to take a look."
"Sister Nazha, do you know this brother?" The little girl looked up and asked doubtfully. Just now she thought it was a group performance.
"Xixi, he is a big star Fang Jing, very big."
"Is he older than you?" In Xixi's mind, Nazha is already a very popular star. He lives in a car, eats different meals, and has a professional makeup artist and assistant.
Fang Jing glanced at his chest, there was nothing there!
Like Reba, Nazha has an exotic beauty, with a hanging nose, big eyes, good appearance and figure, bulging where it should be, and curling where it should be, a typical beauty.
When she was a freshman at Nortel University, she signed a contract with Sugar Man and became Hu Ge's junior sister. She starred in the female lead in Xuanyuan Sword and started her journey to stardom.
The stars I worked with during my college years were all A-list big names, and I had a lot of dramas after I graduated from college. Although I just graduated two years ago, I have already filmed seven or eight movies now. I am either the lead actress or an important role. It is a real cheating mode.
Naza knelt down and touched the girl's head, and said with a smile: "I'm not as popular as him. He is still our boss in this drama, right, Mr. Fang."
"I don't want to be the boss, it's just a cooperative relationship." Without taking up the topic, Fang Jing said: "How is your filming going now? Have you encountered any difficulties?"
"Not yet. Everything is going well in terms of content. I don't know about other aspects."
Dapeng is the director, and he has the final say in most of the coordination. Nazha doesn't dare to say too much. If he accidentally says the wrong thing, he will offend people in a minute.
Hearing the makeup artist's urging again, Nazha smiled sheepishly and said, "Work is about to start. Excuse me. Mr. Fang, why don't you go in and sit down for a while? Director Dapeng has already arrived."
"Okay, let's go together."
Xixi could clearly feel Naza's restraint and discomfort when talking to the big brother in front of her. The atmosphere was uncomfortable, so she consciously didn't speak again.
"Mr. Fang, why didn't you say anything when you came? Why did you go privately incognito?" In the director's studio, as soon as Dapeng came out, he saw Fang Jing and Nazha walking towards them, smiling and jokingly saying hello.
A few minutes ago, he received a call from the crew saying that Fang Jing was here. He didn't dare to delay and came without eating. He thought he was in the director's studio, but he didn't expect anyone to look at him.
