Four hundred and twentieth chapters crew job search
"Bang, bang bang, bang bang bang..."
At night, the small town of Kaiping is very lively.
Lao Zhang is a resident of the town. At this moment, he and his wife grabbed a handful of melon seeds and stood by the window, watching the excitement from a distance.
"Why didn't you attend tonight?"
"Tomorrow," Xiao Zhang said cheerfully, smiling very happily. Because of his fierce appearance, he was spotted by the assistant director during the interview with the crew. He could stand in front of the camera, and his salary was thirty more than others.
Yes, the salary sounds very high, even though it is only two hundred.
But in Kaiping, where the monthly income is about 3,000, it is a surprise.
Moreover, as long as there is a role, no matter how small it is, even if it rains and you stand all day, you will still be paid, no deductions will be made, and a meal will be included.
It's great.
"Is shooting dangerous?" Lao Zhang's wife had to take care of her children and work during the day, so she didn't have much chance to visit the set.
Several nearby towns have been lively recently due to the arrival of the film crew.
Almost all the men in the family have received invitations to perform in the group, and there is no selection of people, including adults, children, young people and old people. Even if they are not selected, they still have to do some odd jobs.
The staff inside are very kind. Even if there are people watching, no one will stop them. They just remind you not to stand in the camera and watch in a low voice.
"I don't know." Lao Zhang took out a few melon seeds from his wife's hand and said, "It should be fine. There is such a big crew and there are big stars. Xiaodong, why don't you go and ask with me tomorrow?
Can you find a job and do it temporarily?”
My son, who was playing with his mobile phone in the living room, raised his head: "I'm only a freshman, how can I do that?"
"Why not?" Lao Zhang increased his voice: "I have been filming on the set for three days. There are many good students on the set. I heard that they are all classmates of the director. Even if you are not an actor, you can still earn more than 100 yuan a day to do odd jobs.
, if you work for a month, you will earn more than 3,000 yuan."
"Why don't we go look for it at night?" Xiaodong became interested. The family conditions were average and both parents were farmers. If he could find a job at home during the summer vacation, he wouldn't have to worry about living expenses for two months. "Dad, do you have a deputy?"
What’s the director’s phone number?”
"Yes, yes, I'll call you now." Lao Zhang hurriedly took out his mobile phone and was photographed by his wife.
"Why are you so anxious? You're still shooting without stopping. You must be busy."
"What should we do?"
"Take Xiaodong and wait. It's past eleven o'clock now. Didn't I tell you that outdoor shooting can't be past twelve o'clock at night? Just go down and wait."
"You're right!"
Looking at the father and son rushing towards the door, the mother shouted again: "I bought some honey at home, take it with you."
Lao Zhang smiled: "You are still thoughtful."
The father and son went downstairs and followed the sound of the explosion to find the studio. After seeing the staff nearby, they took out their work badges. After careful inspection, the other party took away the mobile phone and gave them a few reminders before letting them go.
It was the first time for Xiao Zhang to enter a formal crew. It was very refreshing. There were crew members everywhere, busy with their own affairs. Under the leadership of his father, he went to the entrance of a small courtyard and was not allowed to enter.
Lao Zhang looked around and saw an acquaintance. After telling his son to stand here and not move, he took out a cigarette and gave one to him: "Director Liu, you are taking pictures!"
The man known as Director Liu took the cigarette and walked back a certain distance: "Stop holding on like that and come here."
"Okay." Lao Zhang followed him nonchalantly: "Well, the director didn't lose his temper today, right?"
He said and glanced at the small courtyard.
He knew that the director was a young man. Just the day before yesterday, he scolded the two male actors in the play. Later, he asked the young people in the village, one named Shao Bing and the other Hu Ge, that the filming was not good.
.
Although I haven't had direct contact with the director, I don't know why, but I feel a little scared.
"Today was okay, the shooting went very smoothly," Director Liu said, enjoying the other party's service of lighting cigarettes: "It took five days to shoot a scene. If it gets stuck again, I will probably lose my temper again."
"Thank you for your hard work, Director Liu."
"What's so hard for me?" He was just one of the many assistant directors in charge of the extras: "I remember there was no show for you today, so what are you doing here? Are you watching the show?"
"I'm just asking you, are we still recruiting people for our crew?" Lao Zhang pointed to Xiaodong outside the courtyard: "That's my son. He is going to be a sophomore this year. Is this summer vacation? When I get home, when
I don’t have much farm work, so I would like to ask..."
Old Liu blew out a smoke ring: "Old Zhang, it's not that I won't help you, it's too late. You've seen our crew choose the people without being picky.
Director Qin said, since I came here to shoot and disturbed the nearby residents, I will help if I can, and I dare not say anything else. My income was a lot higher last month."
"Yes, yes!" Lao Zhang agreed.
"Look at what's going on now, there's really no place for one carrot or another. Even the cleaning aunt is called from the next town..."
"This is not..." Lao Zhang was anxious and didn't know what to say, so he took out the honey from his arms and handed it over.
"No need, you are trying to trick me!" Old Liu refused sternly.
"No, Director Liu, you are such a big leader, you are just one person..."
The two were arguing, and Xiang Yang came out from the side: "What are you doing? I don't know that the filming scene needs to be quiet?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiang." Director Liu broke into a cold sweat. Fortunately, he confiscated the honey and quickly explained in a few words.
Upon hearing this, Xiangyang realized that both parties had done nothing wrong: "Is there really no place in the crew?"
"Yes, Mr. Xiang, some of them are saturated. Mr. Zhou has criticized me several times." Director Liu couldn't bear the blame: "He also asked me to streamline some people."
"Okay, I understand, you go and do your work."
"Hey!"
Seeing that Director Liu was about to leave, Lao Zhang did not dare to stay any longer. He felt that he had caused trouble, so he nodded to please and wanted to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Xiang Yang called to him: "Call your son over."
Lao Zhang didn't know why, but he still looked over obediently.
"There's no place to sit, so be careful," Xiang Yang looked at the young man in front of him: "How tall are you?"
"1.76." Although Xiao Zhang didn't know the identity of the person in front of him, since he asked, he just answered.
"How is your strength?"
"It's okay." Xiao Zhang unconsciously raised his hands and clenched his fists, as if he wanted to prove it.
Xiang Yang patted his shoulder: "Director Liu is right. There are indeed many people. After filming for so long, all the people who should be recruited have been recruited. However, I need an assistant here. It is not a clerical job. I often need to go there.
Can I do some shopping in the county or urban area and be on call?"
"Yes!" Xiao Zhang was delighted.
"Okay, I don't care what major you are in. Write down my phone number. Come to the crew at eight o'clock tomorrow morning and tell me my name. Look forward to the direction of the sun. Bring your bedding and live in the crew.
No problem?"
Lao Zhang saw his son hesitating: "No problem, no problem."
"Oh, by the way," he added WeChat after exchanging mobile phone numbers. Xiang Yang was about to leave when he remembered: "You don't belong to the crew. It's considered a match when I meet you. I'll give you as much as your dad earns a day, but
There is no such thing as insurance. Once the photo is taken, you go to school and I will give you a red envelope."
"Thank you, Mr. Xiang." The father and son had given up hope at first, but they didn't expect that another bright future would emerge.
I don’t care about insurance at all. I’m just working behind the boss’s back. I only have 210 days left. Where can I find it?
"Honey, right?" Xiang Yang took it and said, "They didn't dare to collect it, but I did because the weather was too hot."
"Mr. Xiang, if you like it, I'll get some later." Seeing the boss take the honey, Lao Zhang felt a lot more at ease.
"That's enough, that's enough, Xiaodong will come over tomorrow morning, that's it." Xiang Yang waved his hand coolly and turned to leave.
After watching him leave, Lao Zhang and his son happily walked home, preparing to tell their mother the good news.
