A boy named Dog Shit, wearing rags and rags, led a few children from the fishing village and walked down the street. His face was dusty gray and tired, which made people feel pity for him.
There is confusion and panic in the innocent eyes of several children, vividly interpreting the look of country children who first arrived in the big city.
The director repeatedly praised in a low voice, "Okay, okay!"
This long shot lasted for fifteen minutes, until the children reached the end of the road, and the director still did not stop.
Zhang Jiaqiang stood outside the scene and was watching from a distance. He suddenly felt his face getting hot. He turned around and saw Zhou Bing looking at him with burning eyes.
He smiled in return, but received a fierce glare from Zhou Bing, who looked like his silver teeth were almost broken!
Zhang Jiaqiang asked for trouble and walked away.
From the corner of his eye, he saw Zhou Bing walking away on the other side, but his walking posture was very weird.
After turning around, the two gradually came face to face.
Zhang Jiaqiang smiled awkwardly and said, "Mr. Zhou, did you have a good rest last night?"
"Beast, go away!" Zhou Bing cursed with a red face, turned around and walked back.
"Oops!" She exclaimed as if she sprained her foot, and Zhang Jiaqiang hurriedly reached out to hold her.
"Is it okay!"
"Go away, don't appear in front of me again!"
Zhou Bing cursed, but did not struggle. Instead, he moved closer and kept gouging him hard with his beautiful eyes.
At this moment, the assistant director in charge of the actors whispered a few words into the director's ear, and then ran to Zhou Bing.
He first nodded to Zhang Jiaqiang and said to Zhou Bing with an anxious look on his face.
"Mr. Zhou, the male lead hasn't arrived yet, we're going to shoot him soon!"
Zhang Jiaqiang remembers that Zhou Bing introduced that the male protagonist of this film is a popular pretty boy named Jia Xiaoyu.
The crew signed him with a salary of RMB 3,800 per episode. In this drama, he played the role of a father who abandoned his wife and children and returned to the big city.
Because he had a tight schedule, he didn't arrive early. He had promised to arrive at the launch ceremony today.
But now that filming has officially started, it’s still not there yet, which is simply outrageous.
Zhou Bingbing said coldly, "What's going on? Can't we contact you?"
The assistant director mumbled a few times with his Adam's apple and said with a wry smile.
"I contacted my agent. He mentioned Qindao, but he felt that the pay was too low. He asked us to add another two thousand, and it would take five thousand eighty per episode before he is willing to come over. Otherwise, we will hire another Gaoming!"
The assistant director looked at the unhappy expressions on the two people's faces and said sadly.
"This kind of situation has happened before, and it was resolved by both sides making concessions. I think if I give him 4,800 per episode, he should be able to agree!"
Zhou Bing glanced at Zhang Jiaqiang and saw trust and encouragement in his eyes, so the president said calmly.
"No need. We will not continue to cooperate with such a person who goes back on his word and has no spirit of contract, let alone compromise. I will ask the legal department to send him a lawyer's letter later. Let's find a male lead now!"
At this time, Director Zhang also came over and said with surprise when he heard this.
"Mr. Zhou, it's not impossible to find a male lead temporarily, but where can we find him? How long will it take?"
Zhou Bing understands that a big director like Director Zhang has a tight schedule. If the filming is delayed because the male lead is not available, it will be difficult to make up for the loss.
So he said, "It won't take long, and we will have a very suitable one in front of us!"
"who?"
"who is it?"
"where is it?"
Everyone asked together.
Zhou Bing pointed at Zhang Jiaqiang with a smile on his face.
"Me? I've never even acted in a sketch, stop making trouble!"
Zhang Jiaqiang subconsciously pushed forward two steps.
Zhou Bing's lips curled up into a mysterious smile, "You have to have good looks, a good figure, and a little makeup for your age. It's no problem to play a mature man in his thirties!"
"As for your acting skills, not to mention, it's absolutely fine to ask the assistant director to talk about the play for you. Besides, you wrote the script. No one understands the essence of it better than you. It seems that it's you!"
Director Zhang looked around Zhang Jiaqiang and nodded, "The male lead doesn't have many roles. His age spans from eighteen to over thirty. Mr. Zhang is very suitable. I think he can!"
The assistant director also nodded repeatedly, "Mr. Zhang's image is absolutely photogenic. I think he will definitely become an instant hit!"
As the old saying goes, saving a situation is like putting out a fire. In order to save the situation, Zhang Jiaqiang had no choice but to play a bad father!
He quickly put on makeup, and the assistant director carefully explained the content and lines to be filmed.
Zhang Jiaqiang closed his eyes while listening, imagining that he was the scumbag who abandoned his wife and son, and gradually found his feelings.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and said with a cynical smile on his face, "I'm ready!"
Director Zhang felt that he was in good condition, "Okay, let's shoot a scene virtually first to save wasting film!"
After a few minutes, the director called to stop, "Very good, Mr. Zhang, we are officially filming. I will try my best to finish filming your scene first, so as not to waste your precious time!"
After Zhang Jiaqiang entered the state, he was like a movie king. He took three consecutive shots and passed the test, and won praise from the crew.
Director Zhang was confused, could this be his true character?
"Mr. Zhang, take a break first, let's change the interior scene!"
The interior scenes were basically shot in the compound rented by Zhou Bing, and a temporary studio was built there.
The crew began to get busy, packing up various things and getting ready to leave.
At this moment, a BMW sports car drove into the scene.
The car stopped, and a man with oily hair and pink face got out of the car, followed closely by a woman in her thirties.
Everyone was stunned, and someone who knew him whispered, "Jia Xiaoyu, why is he here?"
Zhang Jiaqiang went to see the reputation, and it turned out that this was the male lead who broke the contract!
That woman should be his agent.
The agent looked around and walked straight towards Director Zhang.
"Director Zhang, you are a big shot in the industry and we have worked together before. How could you do this? It's so outrageous!"
Director Zhang frowned and said in a gentle tone, "Xiao Wang, it was you who proposed to increase the salary, but the management did not agree, so it was you who breached the contract first. How can I beat you up?"
The agent sneered and said, "We just failed to negotiate and did not terminate the contract. Now you are temporarily changing people and asking us to come all the way to Qindao. How do you calculate the time and expense?"
Director Zhang has crossed paths with them before, and since they are all in the same circle, he doesn't want to completely break up with them.
"Well, I'll personally compensate you for your losses, that's okay!"
Jia Xiaoyu interjected, "We don't care about this small amount of money at all. What I want is this role. In this way, the salary will be increased to 5,000, and I will be the one to shoot!"
Director Zhang was embarrassed. He looked up at Zhang Jiaqiang, then at Zhou Bing, and finally shrugged and said, "Xiao Jia, I'm afraid this is going to be difficult. Mr. Zhang has already filmed it, and you have indeed breached the contract. It will be very difficult for me to handle!"
Jia Xiaoyu sneered, "If you want to broadcast this film, you must use me, otherwise it will be in vain!"
"I'll give you one day to think about it. Now the salary must be 10,000 per episode. If it's less than 1 cent, I won't do it!"
Zhou Bing suddenly said, "Mr. Jia, look up at the sky!"
Jia Xiaoyu was stunned, "Why should I look at the sky?"
Zhou Bingbing smiled and said, "The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly, why are you talking in your sleep?"
