Entertainment: My house collapsed and I was forced to start making movies

Chapter 16 The greater the ability, the greater the value of utilization

The contract Tong Guan signed for Liu Yifei was indeed fine.

It's just a simple acting contract.

But the problem is that Liu Yifei is not a serious actor in this drama, she is just a special star.

Normally, in other production crews, no money would be given in this situation.

To put it simply, it's just a guest appearance, come and play.

At first, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli also felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't resist Tong Guan.

Let’s throw away the script first, and then we’ll give Liu Yifei the female lead in the next film.

If a normal person hears this, they will think that Tong Guan's 100 million cameo this time is a show of good will, and he also apologizes for taking advantage of Liu Yifei last time.

But the problem is that Tong Guan is not a normal person.

In other words, he is not a good person.

He is not afraid of offending Liu Yifei.

His main job is director, and Liu Yifei's main job is actor.

Neither of them are on the same track, so if they offend, they will be offended.

Besides, he wasn't completely trying to make a fool of himself. The script he showed Liu Yifei did intend for her to play the leading female role.

But whether Liu Yifei is still willing to act in the future is her business.

But Tong Guan is not worried. The most important thing in the entertainment industry is actors, not to mention beautiful actresses.

"Director Tong, will you still use Liu Yifei for promotion this time?"

Huang Bo also joined in the fun and came over to ask.

"Then why don't we take you as the starring role?"

Tong Guan asked back.

"Forget it, my fame can't support the box office. But why don't you, director Tong, star? Your fame is not bad."

"Come on, it's okay inside the circle, but it's much worse outside the circle."

Tong Guan is telling the truth. Although he has now set a domestic box office record, the outside world does not know much about him.

To put it bluntly, without considering other factors.

Movies starring Tong Guan and Liu Yifei were released at the same time, and most viewers would choose the latter.

Liu Yifei's status in the hearts of domestic audiences is not something that Tong Guan can match today.

This is why he plans to use Liu Yifei for publicity.

As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the utilization value.
In order to catch up with the traffic during the Spring Festival, Tong Guan once again chose not to be a good person.

As long as the time can be used, he will never let it go.

This made the crew complain endlessly.

But fortunately, Tongguan is rich this time, and anyone who works overtime can receive a red envelope every night.

Not much, but enough to make the staff endure the pain of overtime.

As for the actors, it's an honor for them to ride in the car of a new domestic director.

If Tongguan doesn't use them as black slaves, he can be considered worthy of them.

Of course, the main reason was that Tong Guan gave them more money.

In the entertainment industry, there is nothing that money cannot solve. If there is, it means you don’t give enough.

Add money!

Crazy plus!

With Tong Guan's extra money, the original investment for a movie similar to "Crazy Stone" had already exceeded 400 million in less than a month of shooting. Although this included the 100 million given to Liu Yifei, but It also far exceeds the original investment of "Crazy Stone".

But Tongguan doesn't care.

Because he is convinced that this movie can still make back its money, or even make a lot of money.

A mere few million will count as money in the future movie market?
A few days before New Year's Eve on Fruit Channel, the filming of "Crazy Racing" has been completed and has entered the editing stage.

There is still one month left before the Spring Festival.

Tongguan must complete the editing and review within a month before he can get on the Spring Festival train.Until the rehearsal of Fruit Channel, Tong Guan was still communicating with the company's editors about work content.

"Child Director, your rehearsal will be here soon."

After hearing the staff's reminder, Tong Guan had no choice but to hang up the phone and focus on the stage not far away.

A few minutes later, when Tong Guan, who had finished the rehearsal, was about to communicate some more details with the company's editor, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"So busy? Are you on the phone all the time during rehearsals?"

Tong Guan turned around.

Sure enough, it was still Liu Yifei.

"Sister, why are you staring at me all day long?"

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes, "Why do you mean I'm staring at you all day long? I also have to rehearse, okay? It's weird to appear here? Besides, you are older than me, so don't call me sister, call me old ”

"Ah yes yes yes."

Tong Guan nodded perfunctorily, and then planned to find a quiet place.

As a result, Liu Yifei walked to him in a few steps and walked side by side with him.

Tongguan was speechless when he saw this.

"Are you alright?"

"It's okay. What's wrong? This road belongs to your home?"

Tong Guan also rolled his eyes when he heard this, then ignored Liu Yifei and started calling to communicate with the editor.

This communication lasted for more than ten minutes, and Liu Yifei stood next to Tong Guan and listened to his call as if nothing happened.

After he hung up the phone, Liu Yifei asked curiously: "I thought I heard editing just now? What was being edited?"

"It's a new movie. Didn't you make a cameo?"

"So fast?!"

Liu Yifei looked at Tong Guan in disbelief and said, "I remember you had just turned on the phone not long ago when I went there last time, right? How long has it been? One month? Forty days?"

"If I hadn't wasted so much time on framing, I would probably have edited it out by now."

Tong Guan said casually.

He didn't lie.

He had shot many times in the mountain city in his previous life, so he knew the location there quite well. In addition, many of the filming locations in "Crazy Stone" were classic attractions in the mountain city, so Tong Guan really didn't spend much time on the location.

But this time filming "Crazy Racing", he really wasted a lot of time on the location.

It can be said that before the filming started, he spent a lot of time looking for shooting spots in Xiamen.

If not for this, he might have finished filming long ago.

Hearing Tong Guan's words, Liu Yifei looked at him strangely: "Have you always been so fast?"

"The Spring Festival is about to start, so it won't be good if we don't hurry up. But there is an ambiguity in what you said. I don't do everything quickly."

"for example?"

"Like some things I can't tell you."

The entertainment industry is a big mess. Although Liu Yifei was well protected by her mother, she had also heard many strange stories, so she understood what Tong Guan meant right away.

Rolled his eyes again.

"Do you boys have those dirty things in your head all day long?"

"Stop you boys, you boys."

Tong Guan stretched out a hand and made a stop gesture and said: "I am me, I am different from them."

"Whatever the difference is, it all looks the same to me."

"Don't talk nonsense. You've never seen it. How can you say the same thing? I'm 18."

"Shit, you were already 21 when you graduated, and now you're almost 24. Why are you so embarrassed to say you're 18?"

Tong Guan did not explain, but gave Liu Yifei a contemptuous look.

You know the shit!
