Entertainment: I really don’t want to be a thief!

Chapter 434 Put on a good show

Director Long looked at Lin Ke expectantly, waiting for a reply.

Lin Ke was not in a hurry to answer. He laughed first and hesitated for two seconds before speaking to Director Long.

"It's okay to help. After all, Liu Yifei is an employee of our family, and the injustice he suffered here is definitely not what I want to see.

But if you end up having a fight with your relatives, it's none of my business. The purpose of my help is to get this guy away. "

"Isn't it too much to take him away... Isn't there any other way? For example, let him take the initiative to quit, or greatly reduce his role. If he turns against him directly, I'm worried that it will be difficult for my parents to explain. "

Director Long expressed new worries. Judging from the confident expression on Lin Ke's face just now, Director Long really believed that Lin Ke would directly use violent methods to drive the children of his relatives out of the crew.

If this is really the case, Director Long can handle it himself without Lin Ke's help at all. It is precisely because he is in a dilemma and must take his parents' face into consideration that this matter has been delayed until now.

Fortunately, the crew had just started filming. The normal filming cycle is three months to one year. If the daughter of a relative could really be driven away, Director Long thought that the worst he could do would be to start filming again.

It's nothing more than losing a week's expenses, which is much better than losing your own brand.

Lin Ke smiled.

"I have a very simple way. You don't have to reduce his role. You can tell him to get out. The price you have to pay is to pay him back together with the 1000 million horses."

"As long as it doesn't hurt the harmony between relatives, of course I can accept it. After all, I have been in the directing circle for so many years and I don't need the 1000 million yuan."

Director Long expressed the lowest limit in his heart.

Lin Ke continued.

"I can only guarantee that he will not appear on the cast of the movie this time, but next time I wait for you to film a TV series, I am not sure."

"What is the solution? Can you tell me first? I'm very curious."

While the two were talking, Director Long kept thinking about what method Lin Ke would use. However, after thinking for a long time, he didn't know how to drive the actress away without hurting her.

Lin Ke said it without hiding anything.

"You entrusted this drama to me. From now on, I will be the director of this drama. I am not familiar with your relatives. This actress is not good at acting, so of course I will drive her away.

Of course it's just superficial. I can't really take over your movie. In order to make the acting more realistic, we can sign a movie transfer agreement. "

"This is a good idea. I didn't expect Lin Ke to sacrifice himself. This is really the greatest honor I have received in my life."

How dare Director Long think about this? This method is simple and effective. The only disadvantage is that Lin Ke offends this person.

Lin Ke waved his hand.

"This is nothing. I heard that the whole crew is very annoyed with this actress who brought money to join the crew. If I can drive her away, it will be a relief for everyone.

But you have to understand that this is temporary, not lifelong. When you next film a TV series, he may come back to you.

If you really can't refuse, you might as well take the initiative to ask for help. "

"how do I say this?"

Director Long was a little confused.

Lin Ke explained to him next.

"Since you can't escape sooner or later, what can you do to him? Why not wait until the next time you film a TV series and write out his role in advance.

As long as this character doesn't penetrate the overall situation and is dispensable, it's fine.

After writing it, take the initiative to find a relative and tell him that you wrote a role specifically for him.

This not only shows that you attach great importance to their daughter, but also gives an explanation to your parents.

If the next TV series is finished and he still comes to you, I have already thought of the reasons for you. Just tell him that except for the protagonist in costume dramas, actors will be constantly changed.

You show him that you are just a director who focuses on costume dramas. If he wants to shoot other types of movies, you give him a way to try out the movies and let him explore on his own. "

At this point, Director Long finally understood.

Sure enough, Director Lin lives up to his reputation and is one of the best directors in China.

Not only has the film been highly praised by the audience, but the brain circuits are so clear.

This problem had no solution for Director Long, but it seemed to become much simpler after Director Lin came.

This method is not only applicable to the phenomenon of Director Lin. If Director Long's brain is more flexible, he can find a director at will to put on this good show.

The predicament in front of him was solved. There was still half a bowl of rice left in front of Director Long. He had no appetite just now, but suddenly he felt that he was not full yet, so he wolfed down all the food in front of him.

Without too many words to express, thank you.

But Lin Ke could tell from Director Long's physical performance that his mood had now returned to the state of excitement.

"Without further ado, please hand over the power to me this afternoon. Anyway, it won't be a waste of half a day."

"It doesn't matter, even if it's a week's delay, as long as I can get rid of the actress who brought money to join the team, I will have the confidence to make this movie well.

What I just told you is just an excuse for myself. This is my first time in the film industry, and who doesn’t want to make a good film and open up a new way to make a living for myself? "

Lin Ke agreed with what Director Long said and nodded.

After eating, the two of them took a short rest in the lounge for an hour.

Liu Yifei's makeup, hair and face were all completed.

In this afternoon's scene, Lin Ke did not greet Liu Yifei in advance.

Only Director Lin and Director Long know about this matter.

The reason why Lin Ke didn't tell me was because he wanted everyone to act more realistically. After all, there is a difference between real reactions and acting.

It must succeed once and for all, and it must not fail, once the actress who brought money into the group sees the flaw.

On the surface, he left and went back to find Director Long's relatives to complain, which would inevitably create a gap between the two families.

Director Long's assistant came to the door of the lounge at this time and knocked on the door twice.

"My actors have prepared their makeup and hair, and the staff are already waiting on the set. Director Long, when do you think the filming will start?"

Director Long waved to the assistant to come in.

The assistant tilted his head with confusion on his face, not understanding what Director Long wanted to express at all.

Director Long beckoned again.

The assistant had no choice but to close the door to the lounge and walked in.

"Do you have any instructions?"

"Let me introduce to you that the person next to you is our crew, the new director.

Now I am the assistant director and he is the main director. From now on, he has the final say on everything during the filming. "

Director Long put his arm on Lin Ke's shoulders and said to the assistant with a smile.

The assistant was stunned for a moment. He knew the person in front of him. He was a famous director in the entertainment industry.

It's just that all these changes happened so fast that the assistant was caught off guard. "when did it happen?"

"The two of us have signed the transfer agreement at noon today."

The transfer agreement is on the coffee table.

The assistant picked up the transfer agreement on the coffee table and looked at it with a look of disbelief. Sure enough, Party A and Party B signed the names of Director Long and Lin Ke respectively, and the content of the agreement was to transfer the entire drama to Lin Ke.

Of course, it is impossible for Director Long to leave the crew, but he just means that now the leader has become the entire drama, the only person who can change the direction of the wind. Any decision needs to be made in front of him, and can only be implemented after nodding his approval.

The assistant has been following Director Long for many years. He knows that Director Long focuses on costume dramas because he has loved costume dramas since he was a child. When preparing for the preliminary work, Director Long asked the assistant more than once that he has been able to make progress step by step over the years. It is very difficult to make a movie nowadays.

Now he gave up the equity of the movie so easily, which puzzled the assistant.

But at this time, Director Long was sitting next to Lin Ke, and it was difficult for the assistant to ask him face to face.

"Then...I will report to work from now on..."

"Of course you are following me. You are my assistant, not Lin Ke's assistant. Could it be that you want to run away with him?"

Director Long leaned on the sofa and joked.

The assistant waved her hands in a panic.

"That was not what I meant."

"Alright, tell the staff and actors that I am now the chief director of this show. I will rush to the set with Director Long in half an hour to film the progress of the afternoon."

After receiving the instruction, the assistant did not dare to disobey, nodded sharply and left the lounge.

Director Long asked with some confusion.

"Why do you have to wait half an hour?"

"Of course, we need to give the assistant enough time to spread the word, and let everyone present be mentally prepared."

Lin Ke said with a proud look on his face.

Everything is under his control and he must be 100% sure.

The assistant first told the staff member's supervisor, who kept the news secret.

Secondly, he summoned all the agents on site and told them that the director had been replaced.

It was the first time for the actress who joined the cast to film a film that she didn't have a so-called agent who came with her. She was actually his friend.

After ten minutes of spreading the news, most of the people present knew it, even the extras knew that a director had been changed.

Without any reason, they were surprised by the sudden change of director.

Everyone was very curious and inquired about the situation like the assistant, asking why there was a sudden change of director?
However, the assistant didn't know what the reason was, and he was confused when he received the notice.

He couldn't give you an accurate answer.

Just like that, there was a lot of suspicion in the studio. The staff, extras, camera guys, and set managers were all talking in low voices.

"What exactly is going on? Isn't it said that Director Long is a director who specializes in shooting costume dramas? Are there other directors who are more proficient than him?"

"Maybe someone took a fancy to his script."

"Impossible. Although I am an extra, I have been struggling on the set for several years. This is the first time I have encountered a situation like this. If I choose to transfer, this will be a big deal. Things must be reported to the people on site in advance.”

“Today’s situation really caught me off guard.”

"Does anyone know the inside information and can explain it? I only care about whether the new director is strict. I don't want to shoot until late at night."

"Perhaps the director is not good at shooting movies. On the surface, the two are similar, but the movie has time requirements and the entire story must be told within the specified time. This is very difficult for ancient costumes."

"This is a suspicious excuse, but I heard from the side that the director can choose to make a TV series, but he has never been exposed to movies, so he wants to try it this time."

"It seems that I was tired and didn't want to keep struggling anymore, so I simply sold the script cheaply."

……

The most important thing is that even the producer was confused. He didn't know what was going on. The director was suddenly changed without any time to communicate in advance.

Only Director Long knew about Lin Ke's trip this time. He had been busy filming in the morning, and he did not inform anyone else.

Director Long was a person who respected Lin Ke very much. He took two lunch boxes at noon, but the producer happened to ignore them, so he asked him why he took two lunch boxes.

Even such a director did not reveal the fact that Lin Ke was on the set. He smiled and explained to the producer that he was hungry at noon today and wanted to eat more.

The producer who got the news came to Director Long's lounge full of doubts.

"why?"

The question was a little abrupt. As soon as he walked in, he saw Director Long and Lin Ke sitting together.

"It turns out to be Director Lin. No wonder he suddenly asked for a director change. It turns out that he changed to a better director."

"Is this what you wanted to ask when you suddenly barged in?"

Director Long said doubtfully.

The producer nodded.

"I definitely have to ask clearly. There are rumors out there that the director suddenly changed, which caught me off guard. Logically speaking, I should be informed of things like this in advance.

But now it seems that there is no need to tell me. After all, it is Director Lin, and I believe in his ability. "

"Don't worry, your vision will definitely not be wrong."

Lin Ke showed a satisfied smile.

The producer quickly waved his hand and explained in a panic.

"Don't say that. You are recognized as a good director, but it's not me who has a good taste."

……

Several main actors also learned the news, but they were not familiar with Lin Ke, and many of them were second- and third-tier actors.

When they heard that the director had been changed to Lin Ke, they still didn't believe it. How could they be so lucky to be filming with one of the best directors in China?
Even Liu Yifei couldn't understand why Lin Ke did this after hearing it.

If you want to kick out the actress who brought money to join the team, there is no need to buy the script directly.

Others didn't know, but Liu Yifei knew clearly that Lin Ke had no interest in costume dramas at all.

I paid a high price to buy it just to kick the actress out. I still don’t know what the film will look like in the end.

With Lin Ke's character, if he really gets bored, he will even give up midway.

Isn’t this a 100% money-losing business?

Liu Yifei didn't expect Lin Ke to make such a big sacrifice.
