Chapter 483: Is the eldest brother still an extra actor now? (12, please recommend and vote monthly)

"I don't follow those gang leaders. Many of them are liars and often bully others!"

Xu Xiaoqiang's answer was beyond Liao Chunsheng's expectations.

When you work as an extra in Hengdian, can you still find filming without following the group leader?

But when Liao Chunsheng saw Xu Xiaoqiang's angry and helpless expression, he felt that he probably wasn't lying.

"Xiaoqiang, why did they bully you?"

Shen Qiushuang asked worriedly.

"Sister, don't worry, I'm very smart and I haven't been bullied by them! I've never been fooled by scam calls before!"

Xu Xiaoqiang and Shen Qiushuang grinned again with two rows of white teeth.

"Then how do you say they bully people?"

Liao Chunsheng couldn't laugh or cry.

"It's because they bully us extras and monopolize those scenes. When the director looks for actors, he just asks them to find them. Then we worked hard to film the film for a day, and we paid 200 or 100 yuan a day. They all took a lot of money. We ended up with less than [-] yuan!"

Xu Xiaoqiang said angrily.

"This is indeed the case. The group leader makes money from poor information. For example, when it comes to finding extras, many directors don't want to spend this time looking for people. The group leader can help with it, and they save a lot of effort."

Liao Chunsheng has also experienced a stage like Xu Xiaoqiang's, and he also knows the mentality of the assistant director who is responsible for finding extras.

Even the assistant directors of a large production crew don't have time to personally recruit batches of extras.

In comparison, it is much easier to leave the matter to the group leader. Send the director the type and number of extras he wants, and the group leader will take the initiative to gather the people, and then some of the crew will go out to pick up the people. , and some even have the group leaders drive their own minivans to transport people over.

Finding people, picking up and dropping off, managing, one-stop service, so worry-free and trouble-free, how can the assistant directors not like working with the group leader?

Even Liao Chunsheng had been caught in the rain before, but when he reached the position of assistant director, he admitted that it was really difficult to work without a person like Quantou.

To give a very simple example, they and Yang Yi went to a remote southwestern mountain village to film "Space Exploration Editorial Department". The film required a group of villagers to act as extras. It was impossible for Liao Chunsheng to go to the villagers one by one to talk. I asked the village chief to introduce and organize it.

In a sense, the village chief also serves as the leader of the group.

"But the group leader can't take money from the actors. Didn't the crew give them any money?"

Shen Qiushuang fought for Xu Xiaoqiang.

Liao Chunsheng looked at his girlfriend, dumbfounded.

Your elbow is turned outward!

From the perspective of the crew, they must be trying to save money!How could you take the initiative to give money to these group leaders?When the group leader makes money, he sometimes has to give points to some evil-minded assistant directors.
"We really can't change the status quo of some industries. However, Xiaoqiang, the group leaders you came into contact with before are indeed a bit of a trap. They took away almost half of the money. There are also better ones. Thirty is more normal."

Liao Chunsheng alone cannot change the reality, and he believes that taking a commission from the group leader is a normal operation.

Doesn't Hengdian's official actors' union still charge a commission? The difference is just the percentage of the commission.

Compared to the Actors Guild, which has many actors, those group leaders are not necessarily more evil-minded. They do provide more job opportunities and are relatively more stable.

"How about you introduce a better group leader to Xiaoqiang?"

Shen Qiu Shuang felt pity for Xu Xiaoqiang. She looked at Liao Chunsheng and thought this was a good solution.

It can't change everyone's situation, but it can make Xu Xiaoqiang, who is kind to them, live a little better. With their current status, there should be no problem.

"Well, Xiaoqiang, I know a group leader named Guo Hong. Everyone calls him Uncle Guo. I wonder if you have heard of him." Liao Chunsheng paused, and when he saw Xu Xiaoqiang's confused face, he continued with a smile. , "I can introduce you to him, and he will take a commission, but he won't do it so harshly. He also cares more about his actors."

After hearing this, Xu Xiaoqiang did not appear very happy, but rather hesitant, as if he wanted to reject Liao Chunsheng's kindness, but didn't know how to speak.

"Brother, does this Uncle Guo need money to join his group?"

Xu Xiaoqiang scratched his head.

"It should be free to join his group. When I acted with him before, he didn't make so many messy fees, and he probably doesn't charge too much now. Besides, you don't have to worry, you can just add him when the time comes. If you have any work, He will contact you directly." Liao Chunsheng smiled.

"Brother, have you acted before?"

Xu Xiaoqiang's eyes lit up and he exclaimed in surprise.

Liao Chunsheng was a little uncomfortable with his surprise.

And the topic jumps too much. Just now we were talking about money, but now we are talking about Liao Chunsheng's experience.

Looking at Xu Xiaoqiang's look, he seemed very excited and felt that he and Liao Chunsheng had found a common topic.

"Yes, I used to act. Like you, I started out as a group performer."

Liao Chunsheng looked at him and smiled gently.

"So, big brother, are you still an extra performer now?"

Xu Xiaoqiang looked at him straightly, his eyes were very clean and his eyes were pure.

"I'm no longer a group performer now." Liao Chunsheng was a bit dumbfounded.

Why is this guy asking questions like this?
Who wants to be an extra for the rest of their lives?

"Brother, you don't act anymore? Have you changed careers?"

Xu Xiaoqiang scratched his head, his expression actually a little disappointed.

"It's considered a career change."

Actors and directors should belong to different professions.

I don't know if he prefers the relatively simple chatting atmosphere now, but Liao Chunsheng has no intention of telling Xu Xiaoqiang their true identities.

"Sister, were you an actor before?"

Xu Xiaoqiang gave Liao Chunsheng a look of disappointment, as if Liao Chunsheng had betrayed their shared dream, and then he turned to ask Shen Qiushuang.

"I'm not an actor. Your eldest brother and I have the same job now. We are colleagues."

Shen Qiushuang smiled.

"Huh? I thought you and my eldest brother were a couple!"

Xu Xiaoqiang was dumbfounded.

"They can be considered a couple, but they are not married yet."

Shen Qiushuang smiled.

"Come on, come on!"

Liao Chunsheng added.

"Really? Then I'll take tea instead of wine and wish my eldest brother and eldest sister a happy marriage and a happy marriage!"

Xu Xiaoqiang became happy again. He raised his cup and said loudly.

"Thank you, Xiaoqiang. I also wish you can happily act in Hengdian and that your future dreams can come true!"

Shen Qiu Shuang was a little hesitant when she said the next sentence. She actually knew that Xu Xiaoqiang's dream was unlikely to come true.

After all, he is not outstanding in appearance, he is quite down-to-earth, and he has no ambitions. Let alone being successful in the entertainment industry, it is difficult for him to survive in Hengdian.

But Shen Qiushuang still said the last words and wished him sincerely.

This big boy would rather go hungry than wait for the owner of his wallet!
