I am popular in the entertainment circle

The crew didn't want to pay attention to him.

He then took out the money and asked someone to beat him.

However, in the past month or so, he had made himself so detestable that even if he took out money, no one would pay him any attention.

He profoundly proved one thing: money can’t buy everything.

However, Meng Ran felt that the old man was too stingy and the money he gave out was too little. No one on the crew was willing to help him catch the black cat for the sake of money, and they might not be able to catch it.

At the beginning of May, half of the plot was filmed, and Meng Ran took a rare leave from director Zeng because "Blue Water Falls in the Sky" had been sold to a video website and was about to begin pre-release publicity.

Meng Ran knew that Director Li Mingqi had higher ambitions. He wanted to sell it to a TV station. Unfortunately, the drama failed to achieve stardom and could only be broadcast as an online drama. Fortunately, the quality was excellent and Director Li had better connections than Director Zeng.

, the platform that was finally sold was a good one, and it was one of the three major video websites.

It's not a small website like that, the benefits and prices are relatively high, it's not a small traffic pool that plays in obscurity.

Li Mingqi cut several versions of the promotional video but was not satisfied with it, so he called them and asked them to reshoot some scenes and then put them on the platform to help promote the film.

Although among the leading actors, only the lead actress and the lead actor have some fans, and the others are all newcomers, they can be counted among them.

Because of this matter, Meng Ran and Xu Lejin had to take leave.

Director Zeng was cursing and cursing, but he had given them leave after all.

They took a car to the city, then transferred to a plane to go to the film and television city in the imperial capital to reshoot the video. It took a day. Everyone accommodated Meng Ran's time that day and got up early to let her put on makeup, and then Meng Ran flew back.

Unfortunately, this time she had to use her own money and there was no way to reimburse her.

If their traffic is bigger and their fans are bigger, and the TV series is finally confirmed to be a star, Director Li might let them go to various cities to promote it.

This is also a very common method, which will waste even more time.

Now, it can be done in one day.

After coming back, Meng Ran asked the crew and found out that Director Zeng helped touch up the makeup of the others.

Inexplicably, I want to laugh. He is indeed a versatile director.

So unlike Xu Lejin who could still get some rest time, Meng Ran immediately threw himself into work.

Shi Jiayue and the bad-tempered old man have nothing to do with her.

After filming like this for more than ten days, Director Zeng chatted with Meng Ran,

"The filming of this plot is almost finished, and there are only some finishing touches left. How is your friend who does special effects preparing? Is he free now?"

Meng Ran gave him an OK gesture,

"Don't worry, he has been free recently. He was originally resting. He owed me a favor and rushed to complete this order for you. He still has to go back for vacation. You also know that workers like this are extremely busy when they are busy.

, I am also very free when I am free.”

"That's good."

Director Zeng expressed his satisfaction,

"When you finish the special effects as soon as possible, I'll almost finish the release here, and maybe I can catch up on the summer vacation."

Meng Ran felt that Director Zeng was also quite courageous.

Winter and summer vacations are golden times.

But then I thought about it, and I realized that the target group of movies and TV are not exactly the same. There are also working young people who like it very much. They can also afford to pay dozens of yuan for movie tickets. Therefore, winter and summer vacations are golden times, but they are not that golden.

Some crews will even pursue the Spring Festival.

Maybe not all staff will have a holiday during the Spring Festival, but at least most of them will.

Taking advantage of the Spring Festival, it is a kind of fun for the whole family to watch a family-friendly movie. Horror movies do not need to compete for this, so Meng Ran will not talk about these rules. Director Zeng knows these rules better than she does.

After chatting, the two of them went to eat together.

Meng Ran noticed Shi Jiayue standing not far away, and her heart moved slightly, thinking that she should have heard it. If she wanted to do something, she had to do it as soon as possible, otherwise the crew would be disbanded and she would have no reason to come here.

At that time, it would not be so fair to scare the other party.

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, Meng Ran opened his eyes. There was still heat around him, but no one was there anymore. Shi Jiayue did something bad again.

This night was indeed very lively.

After more than a month of mental pressure, the old man almost collapsed. On this night, he finally told the truth that Meng Ran had always wanted to hear.

How should I put it? It seems to be similar to what she guessed, or it is similar to what everyone on the crew guessed, but it is very different.

At least the old man didn't get any blood on his hands?

The way the other party acted was quite unexpected by Meng Ran. She thought to herself, no wonder, no wonder the police didn't find out, and they didn't know whether they could convict the other party in this case.

After a long time, Meng Ran, with his eyes closed, felt someone coming back.

She remained motionless, pretending that she was acting a corpse, but when Shi Jiayue came back, her body was stiff, as if she were a corpse.

Meng Ran didn't hear any crying, and when he woke up the next day, he didn't look particularly haggard, and his eyes were not red or swollen, as if nothing happened last night.

On the one hand, Meng Ran admired the other party's psychological quality, but on the other hand, he inexplicably understood her indifference.

She was not even born when it happened.

Meng Ran glanced at the progress bar on the panel and saw that it was almost full.

It seems that by the time Director Zeng notifies the police and the other party is arrested, the progress bar will probably be full. This is a particularly delicious melon. Meng Ran completed it smoothly without much effort or help.

.

And all this is due to Shi Jiayue's ability.

Meng Ran was a little surprised again.

Since she can do it all by herself, why should she wait until she and others arrive?

Could it be that you want people like you to be a witness, or to let these people put pressure on the other party, or to find the right time and harmony?

Because the old man before was very shrewd and not yet a fool, so this kind of trick could not fool him, but now the time has come?

Not long after, Director Zeng rushed over to find Meng Ran.

When Meng Ran passed by, the photographer was also there. It was he who discovered the footage in the surveillance camera and notified Director Zeng, who in turn notified him.

Director Zeng's face turned dark, feeling too unlucky.

Meng Ran had already relied on her hearing to almost build the entire scene in her mind last night. Now when she saw the video, it wasn't that surprising, but she still quickly showed her surprise with her acting skills.

Director Zeng rolled his eyes and said, "It's a bit too much."

Meng Ran immediately regained his composure,

"Aren't you worried about others doubting me?"

The cameraman brother was also quite speechless.

"No, no, no, eight of the ten people in our crew have almost guessed it, but we just didn't expect to be able to do it."

"Okay, Director Zeng, don't be pity. There is a high probability that we won't be able to shoot today. Please call the police as soon as possible."

Director Zeng finally showed some pain and said regretfully,

"You said why I chose this villa in the first place, and why I signed a two-month rental contract with this family. You said that the view of the house next door is also good, so why didn't I choose the villa in the first place?!"
