I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 237 [Excellent ability to raise children]

"A few people will come and help move the equipment of the camera team and lighting team out of the car."

"Um, please be gentle, gentle!"

"Thank you all, thank you all..."

……

Early November,

winter,

On the road paved with a thin layer of snow and frost, Ajie, wearing a cotton coat, was standing in front of a temporarily rented warehouse, directing others and the porters responsible for transporting the goods to unload the goods from the vehicle.

Boxes after boxes of props, costumes and equipment used for filming were lifted out of the long trunk and temporarily piled in the warehouse.

But just when the goods in the car were almost unloaded, Ajie's cell phone rang.

"Way, Boss Li, yes, yes, I'm already here."

He picked up the phone and answered quickly, "Okay, I'll do it in the afternoon...tomorrow. I might have something to do here in the afternoon."

"Tomorrow I will take people to your bookstore to move books. Don't worry, we are just the background board used for shooting. We will never damage these books. If one of the books is wrinkled, we will buy it immediately at the original price without causing any trouble to you. "

"I know, I know that Boss Li doesn't care about money, but books. Huh? It's inappropriate to advertise, isn't it? Boss Li, and I'm just a handyman. You can't even mention it to me. Use it..."

In the plot of the alien space, the male protagonist is a psychiatric doctor.

As a psychiatrist, there will always be a scene with a bookcase in the workplace and in life, and the bookcase is full of various books.

Although this kind of scene that highlights "eruditeness" and "self-cultivation" is very cliché, it is very useful and can basically deepen the audience's impression of this character.

"Ajie, it's so early."

But just as Ajie was explaining to the bookstore owner that he just had no right to do this kind of job of accepting advertisements, a female voice sounded from the front.

He raised his head and saw a relatively smaller van coming in front of the warehouse door.

Xiaowei followed several girls from the makeup team and came out carrying makeup boxes. When she saw him talking on the phone, she waved her hand apologetically, indicating that he didn't need to respond.

"Gao Changyu, go help move the clothes."

However, Ajie still interrupted the chattering bookstore owner on the phone and called over the newcomer who had just joined the crew when filming The Grudge.

"Thank you~"

Xiaowei looked at Gao Changyu who came over gratefully, "The clothes are all in the trunk, please be careful when taking them."

"I know, Sister Wei."

Gao Changyu opened the trunk of the van.

Immediately afterwards, he saw two pestles behind them, with pieces of clothing wrapped in dust-proof plastic bags hanging on them.

"so much?"

He was a little dumbfounded.

"They are all clothes promoted by brands."

Xiaowei explained and called others to help move.

After all, the crew is not what it used to be. In addition to some people who are willing to invest money, there are also some brand endorsement parties coming to provide items such as clothes, shoes, electronic products... This time there is even a shop The audiovisual company provided an expensive microphone.

The crew did not refuse these brands who were willing to provide shooting props.

As long as it is used in line with the characters and background of the plot, it will not affect the quality of the finished film.

Of course, if it is like some film crews who forcefully accept brand advertisements, it is obviously a poor character who works hard for a salary of 3000 yuan, but in the end, because of the endorsement, he directly lives in a three-story western-style house in the plot, using all the objects and clothes They are all big-name and luxurious.

In this case, it will definitely be pointed out by the audience.

Several people carried thick clothes into the warehouse. Inside, Wei Kang was directing people to unpack the boxes and check that the equipment inside was not damaged during transportation.

"coming?"

Hearing the footsteps, Wei Kang turned around and said hello casually.

"coming."

Xiaowei replied, put down the makeup box in her hand, and walked over, "Where's Director Lu?"

"And Assistant Director Zhang, will he follow this play, right?"

"By the way, there's also Ah Wei."

She didn't think Lu Zhengyi and the others were late.

We are all old acquaintances, one, two... until now, when the filming is about to start, everyone has come from all over the world to complete the tasks they are responsible for, and rushed to the filming location with their things. I don’t know how many times it has happened. .

And every time, the director and record crew are always the first to arrive.

At least this is the case in their crew. Lu Zhengyi is never late. Every time they rush over, they can see that burly figure waiting in front of the warehouse where the filming equipment and props have been rented in advance.

"I don't know where I went."

After another piece of photography equipment was checked, Wei Kang checked the boxes in his notebook and replied, "Maybe I went to see the shooting location of the first scene, or maybe I went to pick up someone, but not this time. There are a few newcomers, but there seems to be someone special among them."

"That...I heard that Cai Siqi is very talented in drama?"

Xiaowei asked hesitantly.

"It's that Zhou Ziyun."

Wei Kang shook his head, "Oh yes, I haven't mentioned this in the group yet."

He put away the notebook in his hand and lowered his voice, "I also heard from Ah Wei when I had a private chat that Zhou Ziyun seemed to have a mental illness."

"what?"

Xiaowei frowned and said in a confused tone, "This... was chosen by Director Lu?"

It’s not a matter of discrimination, but if a person with mental illness joins the set, it will be quite troublesome if he becomes ill and delays the filming progress.

Moreover, big guys have to be careful when dealing with him.

"Then Director Lu must have agreed before he could join the team." Wei Kang nodded, "I heard that this mental illness is more consistent with the character in the new movie script, so he was chosen."

"That's understandable. With Director Lu's temperament, if the actor's situation is helpful for the filming of the plot, he will definitely recruit him into the team." Xiaowei's frown eased, "Forget it, let's talk. With Director Lu here, we don’t have to worry about these things."

Since it was Director Lu's decision, these things were not something they needed to worry about.

They just need to do their part.

And just as they were preparing for the next shooting, Lu Zhengyi was waiting for someone at the airport gate.

But what he was waiting for was not an actor.

Among the actors who joined the group this time, the one with the lowest qualifications was Cai Siqi, but he also had several years of experience in acting and working as an extra in various production groups, so it was not enough to say that he was needed to pick her up.

Lu Zhengyi was waiting for Wang Xiaoxu.

"From today on, Team Leader Wang can be considered a member of our crew."

The car was parked on the side of the road, but Lu Zhengyi was not the only one in the car.Bai Wei was in charge of driving, Zhang Yu sat in the passenger seat, and in the back, except for one empty seat for Wang Xiaoxu, the rest were Team Leader Wang and Lu Zhengyi.

Team leader Wang of Light and Shadow Media is now assigned by Zhang Xueming to serve as his assistant.

"...Hey, Director Lu, this is not the first time we have worked together, so there is no need to be so polite." Team leader Wang replied carefully, "My name is Wang Yao, you can just call me A Yao."

Lu Zhengyi was stunned for a moment.

After knowing each other for such a long time, he only knew the name of Team Leader Wang. He used to call him 'Team Leader Wang'.

But soon, he replied with a smile:

"Okay, then Ayao."

"But I'm quite surprised that Team Leader Wang is willing to come to our crew to be my assistant."

"It's true, Xueming. Now that you're the vice president, I won't give you a promotion. Instead, you'll be assigned to me."

He said that, but he must have known it early on.

Zhang Xueming had mentioned before that he wanted to find an assistant for him. This time, Team Leader Wang was more suitable.

"Hey, I'm lucky to be able to join your crew." Team leader Wang seemed very sincere, "Since I went to Heguo with you to film a scene, I realized that you are definitely not an ordinary person, so Mr. Zhang and I When it was brought up, I immediately agreed.”

"Besides, it doesn't matter whether you get promoted or not, as long as the salary goes up."

"I accepted the position of assistant. Mr. Zhang not only gave me a salary increase, but also gave me a bonus."

He couldn't wait to show his loyalty, saying that he was not forced, but voluntary.

But this is not just a show. Wang Yao is sincere and willing to join this crew.

He had previously gone to Heguo with the crew and witnessed with his own eyes how a scene was filmed.

To be honest, he didn't know if this was the case with other crews.

But he knew very well that the composition of the Mei Tanuki crew was very complicated.

Being able to apply virtual technology to actual shooting is not something you can do with money.

How many domestic companies have money but cannot find connections and technical talents to do special effects.

"Ah Yao, don't worry, staying here with me is definitely no worse than staying with Guangying."

Lu Zhengyi said very familiarly, "Just in time, I have a job here and I plan to let you try it."

"If you can do this well, you will be able to do all the new work for the crew from now on."

"I don't need to say more about how important it is to recruit new jobs, right? If you put it in a company, you will be considered to have taken over the company's personnel power."

While talking, he put his broad arms around Wang Yao's shoulders, acting like two good brothers.

In front, Bai Wei and Zhang Yu glanced at each other inadvertently, silently pretending to be nonchalant and not joining the conversation.

Wang Yao was not used to the hand on his shoulder. After all, he had misunderstood some strange things before.

He was still a little uncomfortable with such an 'intimate' contact.

"Recruitment?"

But when he heard the words 'personnel power', his eyes widened and he replied, "I'm familiar with this job, Director Lu."

"Don't worry, leave it to me. I often go out for business. I know many people in this circle, including actors, recorders, photographers, etc."

"I will contact you when the time comes. Many people will be willing to join..."

He was impatient and planned to make a great contribution.

"No, no, that's not how the job is done."

Lu Zhengyi smiled kindly, "This time we will have several actors in the crew who have never worked with us before."

"As for you, you will be responsible for the training and letting them join our crew."

"I don't mean to let them join the crew of Alien Space, but to let them join the crew of Mei Civet Cat and sign a contract with me. Of course, before signing the contract, they must first understand some of the work of our crew. Process and onboarding instructions.”

Having said this, he paused and took out his mobile phone, "Our crew is quite special."

"I'll send you these training documents first. If there's anything you don't understand in them, you can ask... Lao Zhang, or Ah Wei, or in short, other regular employees of the crew, you can ask. You have to understand and accept it first, and then you can train others..."

With that said, he opened the files and let Wang Yao take a good look at them.

As for Team Leader Wang, he seemed very enthusiastic.

"Okay, okay, let me take a look and learn first." He replied nervously, "Director Lu, I have just taken up the position of assistant, and you have suddenly assigned me such a difficult task. I am under a lot of pressure. .”

Lu Zhengyi patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Hey, I believe in you, Ayao."

Although Team Leader Wang is Zhang Xueming's confidant, he has been his right-hand man since she was the team leader, then later promoted to supervisor, manager, and now vice president.

But it is precisely because everyone is so familiar with each other that Zhang Xueming is very clear about Wang Yao's work ability and personality.

His work ability is acceptable, but he is too impatient. He always wants to do big projects and looks down on small projects.

With such a temperament, if you give him a task, he can do it well.

Having worked for so long, it’s okay to maintain a certain level of management in a short period of time.

But if Wang Yao is asked to do this mission assignment, that may not be the case.

In ancient times, this was a general, but not a handsome man.

Therefore, Zhang Xueming had some headaches about how to arrange Wang Yao after he was promoted to vice president.

Let's give him her previous position as project director. She also felt that he was not capable of taking on the responsibility of a project.

In the past, she was in the fourth project team. If Wang Yao made a wrong decision, she could correct it, or help take the blame and wipe the blame.

But now that she is the vice president, it is no longer easy to favor one department alone.

But let Wang Yao work hard for a few more years, but it doesn't make sense and he can't do it.

After all, they have been following him for so many years, he has been promoted, but he is still standing still.

As for Wang Yao, he has been following me since the beginning of his internship and is his direct descendant. '

Even if I didn't give him a promotion, there probably wouldn't be many people in the company who wouldn't give him face. He would probably become the kind of person whose actual power far exceeds the position itself.

Simply, Zhang Xueming threw Wang Yao over.

Others were worried, but my husband’s ability to take care of children was top-notch and he took care of the whole crew.

So she was quite relieved to send the younger guys from the company over to get some training.

"How about it?"

Lu Zhengyi looked at Wang Yao who was deep in thought with a smile.

The other party was holding his mobile phone and looking at the content on the screen, seemingly at a loss.

"Lu, Director Lu." Wang Yao turned his head and looked at him with a smile, "You must have sent it wrong. Is this a fragment from some novel? How can this be a document for training employees?"
