Chapter 29 Struggle(1/2)

Xu Rong was wrapped in a long black down jacket, sitting on the side of the set, looking at the middle-aged man in his fifties wearing a black tunic suit and holding a compass, and fell into deep thought.

He has always been in awe of metaphysics.

The level of awe is just like the nightmarish bowl of black paper gray water in childhood.

Because the existence of the system itself cannot be explained by existing science at all.

As for the so-called master with a solemn face not far away, whether he really understands metaphysics or only understands Yin Yang, Five Elements and Eight Diagrams, he cannot speculate, but as someone in all walks of life, especially those at the top, the more cautious they are.

There are many professions, and there must be a reason for their existence.

The cost of the master was not cheap. He heard the production director Wang Yahui mutter that it cost a total of 200,000 yuan to hire the master.

Looking at the strange steps of the master's feet, Xu Rong grinned, withdrew his attention, and turned to look at Tao Qiupu who was standing aside.

I don’t know why, but since the action director of the crew came here yesterday morning, he suddenly became much more enthusiastic about me, and even seemed to be a little bit deliberately trying to please me.

Especially when designing the action of being beaten by three Japanese samurai, he would look at himself after every sentence, as if asking for his opinion.

I beg you to have a hammer!

The martial arts action in movies and TV shows should be good-looking first. If I use my experience of specializing in hitting vital points, I don’t know whether it can be filmed, not to mention whether it is beautiful or not.

Xu Rong pondered for a moment and asked: "Director Tao, I want to ask you something. Is the hotel where our crew is staying in not very good?"

When he returned to work the morning before yesterday, he noticed that everyone on the crew had dark circles under their eyes and looked listless. He thought they were all worried about the crew's previous accident.

After all, once they are disbanded, their subsequent remuneration will be lost.

But there was still no improvement yesterday and today. Most of the male staff members still seemed to have not woken up after arriving at the set.

Tao Qiupu looked at him with a frown and asked in a low voice: "What does Teacher Xu mean?"

Xu Rong stretched out his hand and pointed casually, and said: "Why do everyone look like they are awake? Look at those workers. They haven't started work yet, and they are squinting in the corner."

If the filming entered the middle and late stages, he would not be surprised at all what he saw before him. He stayed up late one after another. Even a young and strong man in his early twenties could not withstand the high-intensity physical labor day and night.

But in real terms, it is only the fourth day of work, and I was forced to take a seven-day break in between. But looking at the situation, if you don’t know, you would think it has been three months in a row.

Tao Qiupu Xiaohei forced a smile on his face: "This, this, ha."

Xu Rong looked at him and asked uncertainly: "Yes, what happened again?"

He was actually quite worried. Counting the sudden madness of the extras, the crew had not been doing well since they turned on the camera.

Tao Qiupu looked around and saw no one approaching the two of them, so he whispered: "Actually, it's not a big deal. We rested for seven days, and then someone bought a few mahjong stalls to kill time.

."

"The result was unexpected. All of them became addicted to shooting. After work, they couldn't wait to eat even after returning home. They had to go and shoot a few times first."

Xu Rong couldn't help being shocked when he heard this, and said: "But judging from their condition, they will have to fight until at least one or two in the morning, right?"

Tao Qiupu shook his head slowly and said: "Not only that, I got up this morning and passed by the corridor, and it was quite lively when I heard the sound of beatings."

Xu Rong's face gradually became serious, which was not a good sign.

Staying up late playing mahjong is a follow-up problem caused by the accident, but the consequences are more serious. In the end, the accident only paid about 300,000 yuan. If you continue playing like this day and night, the film will not be filmed, and people will die in the long run.

His mentality at this time was quite optimistic. In the past, he was afraid of trouble, disliked it, and had a headache when he heard about trouble. However, after reading the teacher's biography, his mentality changed a lot without realizing it.

There is endless joy in fighting with others.

If you take a smooth road and go straight to success, you will lose a lot of fun and opportunities for growth. Even if you succeed, you will always feel that something is missing.

Only if the sutra has enough troubles and solves enough problems, others can feel the bone-chilling chill even if the sword has not been unsheathed.

Moreover, reality does not allow him to stick his butt out, bury his head in the sand and act like an ostrich, passively waiting for difficulties to hit him in the face.

Always waiting passively, one day the oncoming trouble will exceed his ability.

In this case, it is better to face the problem with a positive attitude and solve the disaster before it happens. Regardless of whether the treatment is successful or not, we can learn from experience and lessons, and taking the initiative means that there is still a way out, rather than being forced.

After reaching a dead end, the boat is ruined.

This may be the mentality that a strong-minded person should have.

Tao Qiupu hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Teacher Xu, have you ever studied martial arts?"

Xu Rong shook his head first, then nodded, and said, "I learned it when I was in college. There are videos on the Internet, and I practiced two routines."

"Online, online?" Tao Qiupu was confused. He and Qiao Pengyue had watched the video of Xu Rong knocking down the middle-aged group actor frame by frame the day before yesterday. He finally figured out the reason why the middle-aged group member didn't fight back, because during the contact

In an instant, Xu Rong gave him a violent impact, causing the middle-aged extra to lose his balance.

What confused him the most was Xu Rong's almost instinctive and fierce rhythm, which didn't give ordinary people any room to react.

He estimated that even if Qiao Pengyue, who had been practicing martial arts since childhood, tried to help him, he might not be able to beat him.

Tao Qiupu looked at Xu Rong's serious face, not joking at all, and said: "No, I mean, Teacher Xu seems to be very skilled."

Xu Rong smiled and said: "You are not very skilled. I have been practicing these two routines for three or four years. I do them during morning exercises every day to keep fit. In fact, it is a blessing that he is punching. If he is kicking, I will follow you."

Say, I have to make a fool of myself this time."

"That's right. Then Teacher Xu, do you still remember which master's teaching video it is?"

"Master?" Xu Rong was stunned, then smiled and said, "It was taught by a young man in his twenties. I have forgotten his specific name."

Tao Qiupu nodded doubtfully and said, "That's it."

After Xu Rong expressed his affirmation, he turned his attention to Chen Haowei. At this time, what he cared about was another thing. The crew played mahjong all night long.

The team was basically brought together by Zhang Jian. Except for the director team and a few people brought by Chen Haowei, most of them were his people. Until this time, Xu Rong finally understood why Zhang Jian had been hanging around for so many years without even getting a decent work.

Won't come out.

It’s a wonder that such loose management can produce good works.

He didn't say anything immediately. After the master finished the method, he waved to Chen Haowei, and then the two of them excused themselves to talk about the script and walked aside.

Xu Rong didn't beat around the bush and asked straight to the point: "Director, do you know about the crew playing mahjong all night long?"

Chen Haowei lit a cigarette and said, "I know."

"You don't care?"

Chen Haowei puffed smoke from his nostrils and said: "Zhang Jiandai's head."

Seeing Xu Rong's confusion, Chen Haowei continued: "I had a quarrel with him the night before yesterday about this matter. He said that he wouldn't ask a single word about things on the set. But about things outside the set, then

It's someone's private time, and it's not easy for him to manage it."

Xu Rong sneered. Zhang Jian usually didn't come to the set unless he had nothing to do, and he really didn't care about the things on the set. But problems outside the set affected normal filming, so it wasn't a matter of private time.

Furthermore, how can the domestic crew have any private time?

"Catch the two leaders..." Xu Rong stopped mid-sentence. The leader was Zhang Jian, after all.

He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll take care of this matter."

When Chen Haowei saw him turning around and leaving, he grabbed him and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Xu Rongdao: "Director Zhou must not let his own money go down the drain."

In the evening, Du Yuming suddenly received a call, which was directly from Zhou Wei.

After hanging up the phone, Du Yuming immediately called a driver and went straight to the airport.

"Director Du, why are you going?"

Du Yuming's sunken eye sockets sunk deeper and said: "Go to the airport to pick up a friend."

In the middle of the night, when Zhou Cai rushed to the hotel aggressively and took Chen Haowei, Du Yuming and several members of the director team to check rooms one by one, he found that the rest of the crew were all quietly nestled in their rooms.

Making preparations for tomorrow's shooting.

Zhou Cai immediately realized that something was wrong and did not let anyone search again, because since no one went to play mahjong, it would be meaningless to find ten stalls of mahjong.

Seeing Zhang Jian leading a group of people looking at him with a smile, Zhou Xian's round face immediately turned around and cursed Du Yuming.

Zhang Jian said with a smile: "Director Zhou, please stop scolding me now. I guess Director Du is too tired during this period and has been talking nonsense. I will give you a room while you rest first."

Zhou Cai gave him a meaningful look and said, "No, I have something to do tomorrow, so I have to go back."

Early the next morning, Xu Rong and Chen Haowei, who had already learned the news, looked at each other and were speechless.

Du Yuming ran to Xu Rong's side and whispered: "Teacher Xu, I'm sorry, I messed up."

Xu Rong patted his arm and did not show any intention of blaming him, but asked: "How did the news leak out?"

"I thought it was the driver who reported the letter when I wasn't paying attention, but I didn't tell him a word before I went there. After receiving the message, I directly asked for his mobile phone. Ordinarily I shouldn't have

ah."

Xu Rong frowned, not thinking about what was going on, and said: "It's okay, you can go about your business first."

Du Yuming scratched his bald head in embarrassment and asked: "Teacher Xu, what should we do now?"

"It's okay." Xu Rong waved his hand, feeling more and more interesting, "Go and tell the director, don't shoot too late today and finish the work early."

"well."

In the middle of the afternoon, after work, the staff in each group became more daring.
