(Thanks to the book friend "Can I ask for a better one", I am very happy.)

The simulated stock trading competition lasted for three months and ended in June.

Why is Xie Yu so enthusiastic about the simulated stock trading competition? The main reason is Li Dong, the second brother. This guy is so good. In the simulated trading competition, he fought hard and finally won the third place in the simulated trading competition.

Xie Yu and the others will naturally be responsible for some logistical support. As a stock trading supporter, Li Dong and nine other players can enter the final round.

The school also arranged for teachers and several "experts" sent by a securities agency to provide training.

During this process, Xie Yu naturally stole a lot of lessons from others. How could the eldest and the third eldest son have girlfriends to take care of them!

Of course, these securities institutions were not in vain. The simulated stock trading competition ended, and six of the ten contestants signed contracts with securities companies.

The other four have their own reasons, and the school can't force them.

For example, Li Dong's family is engaged in real estate, and he has a family business that he wants to inherit. This reason is very domineering.

Xie Yu wanted to sign a contract, but unfortunately he was looked down upon and wouldn't even give him an agreement of intent.

The depressed Xie Yu vented his emotions on the stock market, and finally he caught a "demon stock", Wasu Media.

This media company was acquired by a powerful domestic entertainment film and television company and then went public through a backdoor merger.

However, in one month, the company's stock price increased from more than 8 yuan to 33 yuan, which made Xie Yu's stock capital in the stock market suddenly reach 2 million.

In one year, it grew from 5,000 yuan to 2 million yuan, which is a bit scary!

But Xie Yu knew his own situation. He was a bit conservative by nature and lacked gambling and fighting spirit.

This is also the main reason why Xie Yu was eliminated after barely holding on for two rounds when he participated in the simulated stock trading competition.

Then, because Xie Yu came home a few days late because of stock trading, he was caught by the third child, Zheng Jiaming.

Lin Fei, a senior majoring in directing in the Art Department of Tianyu College, is about to graduate.

Others are thinking of submitting a graduation short film as their graduation work.

Lin Fei, who has interned with several dramas since his sophomore year, wants to make a feature film of 80 to 90 minutes.

However, this young director Lin Fei, with his part-time job and support from his family, raised less than one million in total.

This cost is enough to make a big online movie.

Lin Fei also had an idea. He put his thoughts on his juniors and juniors.

Although the skills are a bit inferior, he is hardworking and the most important thing is that the price is low.

Combined with the experience of Lin Feipao's crew over the years.

Lin Fei specially found his third son, Zheng Jiaming, to be his film's producer and part-time photographer.

Why are you looking for Zheng Jiaming? Because Zheng Jiaming has relatives who are executives in a theater chain.

After the film is edited, it can be bought to the cinema through Zheng Jiaming.

At that time, there was no need to think about purchasing the film through any formal channel. It was just a private purchase by theaters and put it in the midnight show to warm up the show.

Sure enough, when Zheng Jiaming knew that someone was looking for him to be a film producer and photographer, he, who had always been interested in movies, immediately agreed.

But a relative of a theater chain executive actually gave him 50,000 yuan in production fees after taking his place. At that time, the film had to have the theater chain's logo and advertisements at the beginning and end of the film.

Lin Fei naturally understood this and immediately agreed.

The reason for arresting Xie Yu was that Zheng Jiaming found that Xie Yu, despite his small stature, had really good physical strength and was stronger than him.

If you are shooting sports shots, it will definitely come in handy.

In this way, Xie Yu, who was "confused" and didn't know much about photography technology, actually became a photography assistant.

However, since I agreed, I thought it was fun.

Xie Yu went to the library first and read photography books for a week, studying some issues of light, images and framing.

Use Zheng Jiaming's "borrowed" SLR camera to practice hard, don't say it is addictive.

If Zheng Jiaming, who was wearing a "Cabin in the Woods" T-shirt, hadn't found him, Xie Yu would have almost forgotten about it.

Wearing a "trumpet" costume from the crew of The Cabin in the Woods, Xie Yu boarded a semi-old minibus and set off.

According to Zheng Jiaming, the filming location of the crew was in a villa in the mountains, when Xie Yu asked Xie about the script.

Zheng Jiaming had no choice but to tell Xie Yu that Director Lin Fei only said it was a horror story that happened in Lin's villa.

Horror movies, although they are niche, there are many such fans in the market. Making such movies is not only low-cost, but also relatively popular.

After getting in the car, Xie Yu except for a few people he didn't recognize, they were probably the logistics staff such as service staff, set designers, and site staff.

Those actresses immediately attracted Xie Yu's attention.

This Lin Fei was very discerning. He not only brought Chu Lin and Lin Mengxi from the boss Wei Xu, but also Jiang Yilin from the dance class of the art department.

I have to say that when I looked at her up close, I thought Lin Mengxi was already very beautiful, but I didn't expect there to be someone even more beautiful.

But at most he just admired her. Xie Yu knew that he couldn't get along with her.

Then Xie Yu walked to the back and chatted with Li Ming, the floor manager who was also the president of the university, after being introduced by Zheng Jiaming.

Occasionally, director Lin Fei's girlfriend Yang Jihong, who serves as a financial and logistics staff member, joins the chat group.

From Yang Jihong's words, Xie Yu roughly understood what he wanted to shoot. It was a story about a bunch of bored college students who went to a villa in the mountains for vacation and encountered "ghosts".

At that time, because there can't be ghosts in domestic films, in fact, these "ghosts" were all committed by a "couple fugitive" hiding here.

The purpose was just to scare away these college students, who knew it would scare them to death. Anyway, in the end only the heroine Jiang Yilin was left, and she killed the two of them and became the final winner...

While listening to Finance Yang's enthusiastic explanation, I suddenly heard someone cursing on the phone.

Xie Yu looked up, and for some reason, there was a young man wearing sunglasses in the car. This young man was at least 1.85 meters tall, a few centimeters taller than Zheng Jiaming, and he seemed to be a bit more handsome.

Seeing Xie Yu looking at this person, Zheng Jiaming poked Xie Yu with his elbow and whispered: "This person is director Lin Fei, and he initiated the entire crew."

Xie Yu nodded understandingly, but Yang Jihong was very carefree and walked over to ask what was going on.

For some reason, the two argued for a long time, and suddenly Yang Jigong pointed at Xie Yu. Director Lin Fei was stunned at first, but soon showed a satisfied look.

Then, Director Lin Fei came directly to Xie Yu, looked at Zheng Jiaming, and said: "Producer Zheng, who is this little brother?"

Although Zheng Jiaming didn't quite understand, he still politely introduced: "Xie Yu, I am a classmate and a buddy in the same dormitory? You came to the crew this time to help me and work as my production assistant."

Director Lin Fei immediately extended his hand to Xie Yu and said, "Hello, brother Xie, I am Lin Fei, founder, screenwriter, and director of The Cabin in the Woods crew."

Xie Yu quickly shook hands with him and said: "Hello, Director Lin Fei, I will entrust you to take care of me for the next twenty days."

Director Lin Fei smiled and said: "Everyone is just helping each other!"

"By the way, Brother Xie, do you have any plans to make a cameo in this crew!"

Xie Yu hesitated and said: "If there is a shortage of extras, I will naturally help."

Director Lin Fei: "No, extras, let me tell you the truth. Something happened to the two villains and the man and woman who made the appointment. They can't make it. You need to change to a villain."

"But the filming is about to start, and I am a little late in time. But when I saw Brother Xie, I suddenly had an inspiration. If Brother Xie plays the villain in the film, the film will definitely be a big seller."

Xie Yu looked at Zheng Jiaming hesitantly, and Zheng Jiaming understood what Xie Yu meant.

Zheng Jiaming said: "Xie Yu, this is a good opportunity. Many people even want to be actors, but they don't have the chance."

Xie Yu: "It's nothing if you just have fun. It's just that I've never seen a movie and I don't know how to shoot."

Director Lin Fei: "That's no problem. Will there be rehearsals before shooting?"

"Well, brother Xie Yu, if you don't like to show your face, I can set a mask for you."

Xie Yu smiled and said, "It's good to have a mask. OK, I agree. It's just for fun to make a movie. It's also an experience in life."

Director Lin Fei: "Yes, experience, it's a great experience!"

Zheng Jiaming reacted quickly and said: "Director Lin Fei, one code is the same, Xie Yu's salary is indispensable."

Director Lin Fei frowned and said: "I gave Guang Jiang Yilin 50,000 yuan in salary, as well as 20,000 yuan from Lin Mengxi, Chu Lin's..."

Xie Yu is now worth two million, so he waved his hand and said: "Old Zheng, forget it, Director Lin, if you buy this movie and make money, don't forget to give me a red envelope."

Director Lin Fei immediately continued: "Well, don't worry, brother Xie, as long as you make money, a big red envelope will be arranged immediately."

"By the way, when selling the film, Producer Zheng will also be involved, but we can just let him supervise it."

Zheng Jiaming smiled and said: "That's right, that's it!"

"Don't worry, Fourth, I will try my best to get the red envelope for you."

Xie Yu joked: "Thank you third brother!"
