Huayu’s ex-husband

Chapter 69 69. Do you know how expensive this hair condom is?

"Every department is preparing. Shooting will start soon. Everyone should be energetic and try to get through!"

When the filming officially started, Xu Zheng saw with his own eyes Wei Wu's excellent command and dispatching ability, and he easily arranged all the preparations before the start of filming in an orderly manner.

I think back to when I first became a director and filmed "Lee Wei's Official 2". At that time, I was really in a hurry when I started, and there were a lot of situations, and all kinds of problems just popped up when I pressed the gourd.

As the saying goes, an expert will know if something is there as soon as he makes a move.

Looking at Wei Wu's aura of giving orders and his smooth command and coordination, I don't know how many streets he can surpass.

No wonder people don't bother to use cliché methods like killing chickens to scare monkeys to establish their authority. It turns out that they don't need this at all.

Although Wei Wu is young, he is confident, has a beautiful heart, and has rules in every word and deed. Naturally, others do not dare to look down on him.

In fact, basically half of the staff on site have worked with Wei Wu before. After all, they are more familiar than raw, so they can avoid running in!

These people had seen Wei Wu's abilities with their own eyes, so they naturally treated him with respect and did not dare to neglect him at all.

The rest of the people were not so indifferent. Naturally, they knew that this director was extraordinary, so they honestly did not dare to stab him.

In fact, originally "Those Years", with Wei Wu's proficiency, did not need to be filmed for 70 days. The reason why it took so long to film was mainly due to running-in.

Although Wei Wu is a veteran and this is not his first time making a movie, working with other staff members to transform his ideas into execution, including the camera crew, props team, etc., requires a period of mutual adaptation from blocking to silky smoothness.

Why did he dare to guarantee that this movie would be shot within a month? Mainly because in the last part, he and the people below have almost gotten along well, so the work efficiency will naturally double this time.

Wang Baoqiang put on makeup and changed clothes and came out. When he saw Xu Zheng, he immediately grinned.

Although Xu Zheng knew why he was laughing, he was still a little unhappy and said:

"Where are you laughing at Hammer?"

Wang Baoqiang laughed and said: "Brother Xu, your hair has grown out in the blink of an eye. I'm really not used to it!

"But don't tell me, you put on this wig, a pair of small glasses, and a briefcase, you really have a bit of a boss's style."

As he spoke, he was about to reach out and touch his hair. Xu Zheng quickly leaned back, patted it away and said:

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Wang Baoqiang said naively: "I just want to touch it and see how you can make this hair condom so real? You can't tell it's fake even if you get so close."

Xu Zheng took out a small round mirror from his coat pocket, carefully adjusted his temples, and said angrily:

"Nonsense, if you can see the flaws face to face, then the camera won't be enough? You get what you pay for, okay? Do you know how expensive this hair condom is?

"How expensive is it?"

"300,000! Imported goods from Switzerland." Xu Zheng showed three fingers and couldn't help but raise his voice and said:

"I'm telling you, be careful when filming in the future. This hair condom is more valuable than my life now! Don't touch it randomly. If you break it, you won't be able to get the second one!"

Xu Zheng is now very fond of this hair condom, and no one is allowed to touch it except the makeup artist and himself.

After all, he also knew that because of him, the crew had to bear an additional expense.

You must know that their film itself is a low-budget film, with a total investment of only 6 million, and his wig alone accounts for 1/20 of it.

This is equivalent to saying that his salary now is not 50,000, but 350,000. After all, if it wasn't to accommodate him, there would be no need to spend the extra money.

One thing I have to say is that a salary of 50,000 yuan is fine for him, but 350,000 yuan is obviously a premium.

So because of this wig, Xu Zheng is now even more grateful to Wei Wu for his kindness.

He has also read the script. To be honest, the role of Li Chenggong does not have to be played by him. There are many people who can play it. 350,000 can definitely afford to hire a movie star who is much more famous than him.

If he were the director, he would definitely not waste the money. It would be much easier to just replace him!

Of course, although Wei Wu has not replaced anyone yet, he still felt a little guilty after spending an extra three hundred thousand.

Besides, they didn’t hold a grand opening ceremony, so Wei Wu probably didn’t have much money either.

If the wig was accidentally damaged and had to be purchased again, Xu Zheng would be under too much pressure. So he had long made up his mind to protect this wig and not cause any more trouble to others.

Wang Baoqiang was surprised: "Damn it, wigs are so expensive? Are they really fake!"

Xu Zheng glanced at him lightly and said, "Are you an amateur at this?

"Wigs are expensive to begin with. Even the cheapest ones, the ones that are barely usable, cost about two to three hundred per set, and the slightly better ones cost several thousand.

"If you want to achieve the effect of looking fake and real, you will basically need thirty to forty thousand; if you want to pursue better effects, you can choose from hundreds of thousands to millions."

Wang Baoqiang said with an honest smile: "Oh, so that's it. It's really because I'm ignorant, mainly because I've never used this thing before, but Brother Xu, you are well-informed."

Xu Zheng was speechless for a moment. Looking at what he said, why did he feel a little strange?

However, when it comes to wigs, Xu Zheng considers himself to be a semi-expert.

Through his personal trial, he believed that the purchase price of 300,000 yuan, including tariffs, should be worthless.

Who made him go bald at such a young age? He does have such a need! If most people don't lose their hair, they rarely deal with wigs.

At this moment Wei Wu came over, patted Wang Baoqiang on the shoulder from behind and said:

"Have you memorized all the words?"

Wang Baoqiang nodded and said, "No problem, director."

"OK, turn on the camera right away. You can perform well and give us a good start!"

After Wei Wu finished speaking, he asked the crew to clear the place and get ready to start filming. Once everything was ready, the filming of the first scene of "A Man on the Road" officially started.

The TV is loudly announcing: Compared with previous years, this year's Spring Festival travel will come earlier, and train tickets are still hard to get.

The middle-aged actor who played the role of the factory director sat behind his desk and began to speak:

"Don't look at it. You want to go home to celebrate the New Year this year? Huh, there's no chance!"

Wang Baoqiang stopped staring at the TV and walked to the factory director's desk with a heavy heart. He rubbed his ears with his left hand and said in a low voice with a local accent:

"You said whether you can go back...isn't this all decided by us? You see, it's mainly about the wages..."

The factory director immediately began to cry for poverty: "The industry is in recession now, and many dairy factories across the country have closed down! It's not easy for our dairy factory to survive! So, how can I give you money?"

Wang Baoqiang immediately put away his coquettish expression, curled his lips disdainfully and said:

"What do you mean? If you don't give me money, why would you give me something? We have been busy for a year, who is not here for the money?"

The factory director immediately scratched his head and masked pain: "You can ask me anything now, but you can't ask for money!

"Otherwise, you two can take away the cow and divide it among us! I definitely don't have the money!"

Wang Baoqiang became anxious, pointed at the factory director’s nose and said:

"You...you said this, aren't you bullying others?"

The factory director spread his hands and said, "Why did I bully you?"

Wang Baoqiang completely lost his temper, pointed at the factory director with a fierce look on his face and asked through gritted teeth:

"Let me ask you one last question, yes or no?"

The factory director also got a little angry at this time. He shook his head and said:

"Then let me say it one last time, no!"

"Kah, keep this position for 3 seconds and don't move. Come on, push for a close-up."

Then Wei Wu shouted again: "Okay, pass. Good performance in keeping strong, keep working hard!"

The people around him also breathed a sigh of relief, and there were several cheers.

Wang Baoqiang immediately grinned, gestured happily and said:

"Thank you, director, I will do it!"

Thanks to Qiuqiu biubiubiu for the reward of 5,000 coins to Liu Tianxian, thank you to Brother Oh Lai for the reward of 1,500 coins, and also thank other bosses for their monthly ticket recommendations and collections. The author of Poujie is so grateful!
