Chapter 42 Going to River City to Film
Lin Dong discovered that paying wages is actually quite costly.
Now Lin Dong has two front desks, one driver, one bartender, one personnel, one finance, one director, one planner, one artist, and one agent, with a total of ten employees.
In a year, the wages alone can pay seven to eight million yuan.
Then why not recruit more people?
The system restricts Lin Dong from recruiting ten receptionists. It is said that it does not look like a company like a club, but there are no restrictions on artist directors and related positions.
Liu Xiaomei looked at Lin Dong suspiciously, not knowing what conspiracy this Shuaibi had.
However, when she learned how the contracts of Kleist Culture Media were signed, she immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice.
sign!
Not to sign is a fool!
This boss is a fool, I am not!
Since the two artists are not very popular, and there is only one manager, Lin Dong can only let Qian Na lead the two artists alone.
Wait until the need arises before recruiting—in fact, wait until the system agrees.
The system is too stingy.
And cheating, oh no, it's a cheating host.
Why is it that a silly Baitian like Liu Xiaomei can get an appearance fee of 1.2 million a season, but I can only get...
How much is five thousand yuan multiplied by twelve installments?
Anyway, the gap is huge.
Lin Dong seriously suspects that the system is jealous of him, so he will not say anything about jealousy, so as not to be he~tui.
Then there's the real work.
Zhang Sanpang has already planned the program and the team has been formed.
Where is the first episode?
After discussing with everyone and asking for opinions from the female guests, Lin Dong finally decided to go to Jiangcheng in Jingchu.
The reason for choosing there is not because the food in Jiangcheng is the best in the world.
But Lin Dong was anxious to go there to film.
Let others play the son.
He took a step ahead. The crew of The Witch on the Bite of the Tongue needed to bring a lot of things, so it was two days late to get in place.
The crew of Arrow Piercing the Heart was filmed in Jiangcheng, and two versions were produced, one in Jiangcheng dialect and the other in Mandarin.
Lin Dong originally planned to find a teacher in the capital—hehe~!
Fortunately, the dean of the photography department, that is, director Wang Zheng, was prepared and made an appointment with someone in Jiangcheng.
Recently, it is popular in the entertainment industry to use 1234 instead of lines, and then find seiyuu monsters to dub in the later stage.
Who knows who invented the god operation.
The audience saw that the mouth shape was wrong and very regular, and it was basically this kind of shameless behavior.
Of course Lin Dong would not do such a shameless thing.
He came to the door according to the address and studied Jiangcheng dialect seriously.
You don't know hey, do you?
Hit Chiba, or pick melons!
Eat sweet potatoes and swell!
Secretly drinking a bottle of memory potion, not only the Jiangcheng dialect needed in the play, but also Lin Dong outside the play can roll up his sleeves with the locals of Jiangcheng.
The teacher was stunned.
It is logical to enter the doubtful life mode.
He has been teaching for more than ten years, but he has never met such a bright student.
In fact, he just met the hanging wall.
The shooting location is Hanzheng Street.
This is where the crew worked hard to find.
I have to thank the external producer, the one that Zhen Xiaolong did in Many Days of Broken Love.
In fact, the film It's Not Easy to Go Home During the Spring Festival was also filmed in this city, but unfortunately the second Thailand is Not Easy went directly to Siam, which was obviously overblown.
After Lin Dong finished learning Jiangcheng dialect, he went to the crew.
If there is no traffic jam on the bus, we can still make it to lunch at noon.
Today we have a new cast member, so cheer up. The props crew over there tidy up and don't throw things away. Director Wang Zheng checked the text message and began to clean up the set.
Also asked the production director to prepare various budget sheets.
All traces that would make people suspect that the crew was wasting investors' money were all erased.
Who is here? Why is it so grand? Zhao Qing, who plays the female supporting role, was very puzzled. According to the reliable information she got, the next 2 to 5 days will be spent filming the scenes of the male lead and their son.
As for why 2~ is so high, it suddenly reaches 5, probably because I don't know the level of this actor.
Some actors, when they are posing, they are like movie kings, but when they are filming, they are like mentally handicapped, they can instantly kill them by simply pulling props.
I heard it's the producer of the movie. Yan Ji didn't know much about it.
The director kept saying that no one invested money, and asked everyone to wait patiently.
Then suddenly one day he said that he was rich, and he was still a big dog who invested as much as he wanted with his budget.
It's no wonder that the producer stuffed it in. Zhao Qing was stunned.
Yan Ji understood that she had misunderstood, but she had no intention of explaining, she didn't care about the producer or anything, she was only worried about her son's acting skills.
Although there are not many scenes, the role of the son is the most powerful one.
If the acting is not good, it is easy to reduce the quality of the whole drama.
While waiting for Lin Dong to come by bus, both the director and the actors were out of their minds.
But Lin Dong, like an ordinary tourist, got off the bus with his bag on his back.
When it came down, several poles approached immediately.
However, after seeing that Lin Dong's backpack was small and deflated, he immediately lost interest.
Biandan is the name for scattered temporary porters in Jiangcheng, Shancheng and other places, but it is called Bangbang in Shancheng, and Biandan in Jiangcheng and other places.
They are scattered throughout various stations and markets.
Fewer and fewer, but not extinct for decades.
Hey, don't go, help me carry it. Lin Dong called to stop an aunt who was carrying a pole.
It's so small, there's no need, there's no need to spend this money.
Xiao Ye helped me carry it and chat with me. Lin Dong handed over the backpack, and the aunt had to carry it carefully.
In this play, after her husband jumped into the river, the heroine relied on being a shoulder pole to earn money to support the family.
During the ten minutes of walking, Lin Dong talked about the profession of shoulder poles and the life of this group of people.
When he arrived at the place, he took out a fifty-yuan note and stuffed it into the hand of the aunt, and then carried the backpack in one hand and entered the filming location of the crew.
In fact, the crew had already seen him.
From the bus to these few steps, I even found a shoulder pole to help with the backpack. This young man is too lazy to work.
But there must be some politeness.
Lin Dong is destined to not be able to taste the treatment given by the box lunch uncle in A Big Man Should Get Married in this crew.
First, he joined the group to play an important supporting role.
Secondly, the director of the producer gave a warning from top to bottom, that we must let our rich master have fun.
Director Wang Zheng said before that he would treat Lin Dong like an ordinary actor.
That is to say.
He is obviously not the kind of drama lunatic or master who only has filming in his eyes and nothing else.
eat first!
It was originally agreed to go to a nearby restaurant to have a good meal.
But it was rejected by Lin Dong.
All kinds of frugality on the set can be seen at a glance.
He really couldn't bear to take up the pitiful funds of the crew anymore.
The director hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Hurry up and ask for a box lunch.
Lin Dong and the crew squatted under the big tree in the yard together, eating plastic lunch boxes.
I ate three boxes!
