This director needs to apologize

Chapter 64: Signing for the Protagonist to Fool Dad

In the evening, Chen Yiming met Liu Dongjun's father at the park restaurant.

When Chen Yiming thought about it, Xiao Liu came from a fairly well-to-do family, and the elders in the family should love him very much.

Therefore, when they met, he was actually prepared.

If parents are not willing to let their children endure hardship in the mountains and valleys, or they have to go "experience life" with their children.

Then he could only use the banner of Ma Erye and contact Liu Dongjun with "preferential conditions" such as lowering the score and admission to the Magic City Theater Academy to induce him.

I believe Mr. Ma has this face.

What Chen Yiming didn't expect was that the "negotiations" with Liu Dongjun's father went exceptionally smoothly.

As soon as he heard that Moying had invited his son to be the first protagonist in next year's National Day gift film, and the co-stars were all well-known Chinese actors, Liu started to nod his head hurriedly before Chen Yiming could finish the story.

Then he put aside the important matter of his son and took Chen Yiming with him to express his excitement when he was selected into the national team and represented China in the game.

Although there is no cross-country motorcycle event in the Olympics, the Chinese flag is also on the protective clothing, which has a different meaning.

His son gave up his career halfway through learning to drive and said he wanted to be an actor. Although he regretted it, he could only let him go and encourage him.

Now, by chance, his son can participate in a tribute film, or play a hero who fought for the country in the Peninsular War. How could he disagree?

Old Liu spoke impassionedly, "Don't worry, Director Chen. We know that you are busy with important matters related to the people's support and national morale. His mother and I will never hold back the crew."

While patting Liu Dongjun on the shoulder, he emphasized, "You can train these 100 kilograms at will, let alone go to the mountains to experience life, even run 20 kilometers of armed cross-country every day. As a parent, I will never be shy."

He also pointed at his son to make up for it, "I just went to get rid of this fat body. Tell me yourself, how many pounds have you gained since returning home? If I put you on the car, can you still bend down?"

Lao Liu is very generous and righteous, so Chen Yiming naturally has to maintain his momentum.

He handed over a stack of contracts that Jueji Legal had prepared in advance and explained them to Lao Liu in detail page by page.

"Uncle Liu, this is a performance contract.

From the end of the New Year's Day holiday, Liu Dongjun has to obey the crew's arrangements, ranging from 4 months to half a year.

The crew felt very sorry for delaying the children's schooling.Therefore, the salary was based on the loosest standard, which was only one level lower than Mr. Hou Yong and the third highest among the entire crew.

I know that Uncle Liu, you are not short of this little money, you just want to express the sincerity of the crew.

As for classmate Xiao Liu’s studies, after I finish filming this movie, I will ask for a letter of recommendation from Ma Zhongming and Director Ma of the Demonic Film Group. Other schools dare not mention it. At least it will be an extra insurance to get admitted to the Magic City Drama Academy. "

Old Liu and Xiao Liu looked at each other with uncontrollable surprise.

Being able to directly join the path of the head of the Demon Shadow will definitely be a great benefit to Liu Dongjun's career as an actor in the future. In comparison, letters of recommendation are not that important.

The atmosphere in the booth has since become more harmonious.

"Uncle Liu, this is an insurance contract. Every actor must sign it for necessary protection just in case. The premium will be paid by the crew.

Xiao Liu is the first protagonist, and his insurance policy is specially customized, covering everything from the life experience stage to the crew rehearsal and actual shooting stage. "

At this time, Lao Liu showed some concern and anxiety as a parent, and after much hesitation, he still said.

"Director Chen, this kid has never experienced much hardship since he was born. If he suddenly plays a rural child in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, he will definitely not act like it, so my mother and I can understand your intention.

There are always some dangerous scenes in war dramas. We know they are all fake, but we still can't help but worry. "

Lao Liu took Chen Yiming's hand and said emotionally. “He has been learning to drive with me since he was 7 years old. It is common for him to get bumped and fall. He is also very skinny, so I don’t worry about him getting hurt.

I will leave him to you. I only ask Director Chen to let him go home without missing anything after filming. "

Chen Yiming didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This was too exaggerated, and it wasn't like he was really dragging his classmate Xiao Liu to fight on the peninsula.

He quickly explained to Old Liu, "Uncle Liu, our film is very safe. You and your aunt are welcome to come and inspect it when you are free."

While Liu Dongjun was going to the toilet, he had an affair with Lao Liu alone.

"Uncle Liu, Xiao Liu is being looked after by people from the army in the countryside. The conditions for food, food and sleep may not be ideal, but he will never be hungry or put in danger.

Think about it, if he injured his arm and sprained his foot, would I be able to make the movie? "

……

After seeing off the Liu family and his son, Chen Yiming returned to Bojue with ease.

If you plant flowers intentionally, they will not bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will create shade.Unexpectedly, the first protagonist of the movie was solved by throwing himself into a trap.

Back in the office, he took out his mobile phone and made a call.

"Hey, Dad, where are you?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Chen Yiming felt that he was asking too much because the voice of "Don't move! Touch" came from the phone.

Needless to say, I must have gone to rub the numbness.

Father Chen said, "Wait a minute," and then Chen Yiming heard him looking for someone to take over.

It seems that my son's priority is higher at this moment.

If it were before Chen Yiming graduated from college, Chen's father would definitely have dismissed him by simply saying, "Tell your mother if I have anything to do."

A joking voice came into the microphone, "Old Chen, please turn on the speakerphone. Let's also listen to the voice of the great director. I even treated him to crispy noodles when he was a kid."

Chen Yiming could imagine his father hiding out the door while mumbling "next time".

"Hey, Yiming, tell me now."

"Dad, why are you running outside to answer the phone? It's so cold!"

Father Chen said in a nonchalant tone, "It's not cold, it's just a good time to come out and get some air."

Chen Yiming continued to ask, "Are you and mom okay? Is the heating in the house hot enough?"

As the saying goes, a son is better than his father. Father Chen interrupted Chen Yiming's detour, "You kid, you have something to say, so don't make such a fuss. Didn't you just leave home a few days ago?"

There was no other way, so Chen Yiming had no choice but to tell the truth, "Well, I might not be able to go back during the Chinese New Year. Just tell my mother."

Hearing this, the other party immediately became furious, "What are you talking about? You won't go home during the Chinese New Year? You are a great director, right? You are in the Billion Dollar Club, right? As soon as you grow your wings, you want to fly. I don't care about your nonsense, you are on your own Call your mom and explain.”

Chen Yiming thought to himself that if he dared to tell his mother that he would not go home during the New Year, his mother would immediately come to the devil's capital.

When the time comes that his mother can’t find anyone else when she comes to the Magic City, that will be a big event.

"Dad, just tell my mother. I have serious business here. I'm busy filming a movie, so I really can't spare the time."

Dad Chen became even more anxious when he heard this, "Yi Ming, didn't you just finish filming one? Why are you filming again just a few days later? Let me tell you, knowing that you are in the entertainment industry now, don't dare to be a bad example, otherwise I will be different Cut off some of your belts."

Chen Yiming was speechless and choked. The last time he came home, he discovered that Father Chen was like the positive and negative poles. One second he was still positive, but when he went out to listen to someone talk, he became negative the next second.

Highlight a love and hate without limits.

Whether it’s fishing or playing cards, the basic process is the same.

Father Chen first showed off his son's "great achievements" and enjoyed a round of envy and jealousy from his old friends.

With this conversation, everyone started chatting about entertainment industry gossip.

When Father Chen is full of negative energy, he will put it on Chen Yiming when he returns home.

Last month, Chen Yiming stayed at home for less than a week, and Chen's father played today's sermon to him five or six times.

Tax evasion, unspoken rules, washing rice, burning leaves, anyway, there are enough things in the circle to step on a sewing machine, and Father Chen has not missed any of them.

Chen Yiming decided to cut the knot quickly, otherwise he could just break up with his father and get away in the middle of the night.

"Dad, I'll make a long story short. I will be filming in the valley for the next few months. This is a quick job and a National Day gift.

If you can't get through to me on the phone, don't worry. It's normal for the signal to be poor in the mountains. I'll call you when I get back to the station sooner or later.

Please help me talk to my mother and tell her not to worry.

I haven’t decided whether I will go home for the New Year, but there is a possibility that I won’t be able to leave. If the filming goes well, I will try to give myself a few days of annual leave.

That's it, it's dead! "

Chen Yiming hung up the phone and slapped his chest continuously. It was not easy to fool his father.

But if you think about the consequences of fooling your mother, you might as well fool your father.
