Entertainment: Part-time job on set, night visit to Boss Yang’s RV

The casting process in Mahua went smoothly.

With the support of the boss Zhang Chen and the fact that the script suited Shen Teng and the others very well, it was finalized on the spot.

All that's left is to negotiate the actors' remuneration.

Zhang Chen knew that Jiang Zhen's budget was small, and in order to covet the big pie of in-depth cooperation with Jiaxing in the future, he greeted the actors in advance.

It means asking them to make do with it as a favor, and don’t charge too high a price.

Jiang Zhen also expressed his opinion immediately, saying that this movie would not delay everyone's filming period for too long.

45 days!!

We will finish all your scenes within 45 days, and we will definitely not run out of time.

Mainly, 8 million is enough to support this time.

When I heard that they were only allowed to be on the set for a month and a half, everyone was balanced.

It is common for a movie to be shot for several months, half a year, or even a year or two.

Since Jiang Zhen doesn't take up their time, it won't be too much of a disadvantage if the pay is less.

What's more, Mahua, a group of stage actors, had never been exposed to movies before.

The asking price for newcomers will not be too high.

When talking about remuneration, Jiang Zhen was one-to-one, the price given was satisfactory to them.

Finally got everyone down.

Among them, the one with the highest salary among the Mahua group is naturally Shen Teng.

Jiang Zhen gave him the highest price, 400,000!

Although this number is really low.

It can be said to be a friendly price.

But Shen Teng also agreed.

Mainly because he liked the script so much and wanted to make Jiang Zhen, a young friend.

After the negotiation was settled, Jiang Zhen thanked Shen Teng sincerely and then patted him on the shoulder.

"Brother Shen, please cherish this experience of filming for me."

"Why?"Shen Teng was a little confused.

"Because it will probably be difficult for you to get a salary of 400,000 yuan in the future."

"……"

Shen Teng was depressed and even a little angry:"What you said is that the movie hasn't been shot yet. Am I that bad?"

"No, it's not what you think. Jiang

Zhen quickly smiled and explained:"I'm not saying that 400,000 is too high. I'm saying that after I finish filming my movie, I want to treat you with 4 million in the future. That's all a fantasy."……"

After this rainbow fart, Shen Teng felt relieved.

This is so flattering, so well shot!

"Director Jiang, don’t say anything. I’m just telling you this. If you ask me to make a movie from now on, I will definitely take it for 4 million. Whoever doesn’t will be my grandson! Shen

Teng laughed, obviously not realizing the seriousness of the problem.

"Brother Shen, this is what you said. I won’t record it. Just remember it yourself."Jiang Zhen laughed.

Brother Shen Teng, I will pay you 4 million for filming in the future. Don't regret the small payment.

After finalizing the cast of Mahua, Jiang Zhen and Fatty returned to the Magic City that night.

The first thing is to report the body measurements of the main actors to the costume company and ask them to make school uniforms.

Within two days, Jiang Zhen interviewed a group of actors, including Yin Zheng, Tian Yu, Wang Zhi and others.

It's easy to negotiate, since their pay is lower.

When interviewing Wang Zhi, Jiang Zhen deliberately spent more time.

The actor who plays Qiu Ya is not beautiful in appearance, but he is worthy of the role of Qiu Ya in the film and is more than enough to play a school belle.

The key is that her figure is not inferior to Boss Yang.

When she came for the interview, she wore a milky white T-shirt, which could not hide her plump figure.

After the interview, Jiang Zhen asked a question

"Sister Zhi, I heard that you have been practicing martial arts since you were a child?"

"Yes, it started when I was seven years old."

Wang Zhi nodded. Unexpectedly, this young and handsome Director Lin knew her quite well.

"Then there is no problem with your one-word horse or anything, right?"

Jiang Zhen thought for a while, and then asked

"No problem, that's easy. What, Director Jiang, are there any scenes in this play that require a one-character pony?"

"Not really."

Hearing this, Wang Zhi was a little confused.

Since there is no such scene in the movie, why did Director Jiang ask this question?

Jiang Zhen smiled and said nothing.

That one-character horse is not important to the movie, but it is very important to me.

This posture must be very enjoyable!

When Jiang Zhen sent Wang Zhi away, he specially asked to say a few more words

"Sister Zhi, after you get the script, you should read it more. If you don’t understand something, feel free to ask me after you join the set. It doesn’t matter how late it is."

"Okay, thank you, Director Jiang."

Wang Zhi only felt that Jiang Zhen was very polite and attentive.

Jiang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief when Wang Zhi was sent away.

All the main and secondary characters were gathered, and the film would be filmed soon.

As for the actors, Jiang Zhen spent about 2 million, and already It’s very cheap.

Mary, the second most famous, only earns 150,000 yuan.

As for actresses, their salary is never as good as that of actors.

The rest of the money is spent on renting equipment, buying clothes, renting venues, extras, accommodation and meals, etc. It was a hard expenditure.

After all, there was really not much money.

Ten days later, Jiang Zhen came to Northeast China with a large group of people.

The first filming location was here, and he spent money to rent a middle school for filming.

The crew's co-ordinator It was Xiao Liu who was recruited by Jiang Zhen. The assistant director was Fatty. The rest of the filming, lighting, sound recording, costumes, and makeup were basically classmates from his school. On the first day he came, he arranged for everyone to move near the school. Hotel.

He really didn’t have money to treat everyone to a hotel, so he had to make do with it.

Fortunately, everyone was easy to talk to.

In the evening, he convened the main actors for a script reading meeting.

Reading meetings are a common practice for many production crews..

Everyone reads the script together and gets familiar with the characters and lines while going through the plot.

"Everyone, because the filming period of this movie is not long, we have two reading meetings every week. Please work hard, and I will reward everyone when the movie is released."

After hearing what Jiang Zhen said, everyone understood.

He was a new director who just wanted to make a good movie, and everyone was willing to cooperate.

On the second day, a not-so-grand opening ceremony was being held on the playground of the middle school.

When the ceremony was over, the crew Then we officially started shooting.
