After discovering the "essence" of the younger brothers, the seven of them were no longer so afraid of them.
They even feel that they can eat at the same table with their younger brothers without feeling panicked, and the feeling of wanting to rub oil on the soles of their feet anytime and anywhere is gone.
After finishing the meal happily, Cui Jiu asked Ji Changze: "By the way, Brother Ze, did you ask us to come here to help you with something?"
"Yes, something happened."
Ji Changze was not polite to them: "Isn't it summer vacation? You should have nothing to do when you go home, so how about you stay here and help me?"
The seven of them had all been taken care of (fooled) by him before. When he opened his mouth, they all had a smile on their faces and said, "Okay, whatever I want to help you with, just tell me."
Ji Changze pointed to a group of big men behind him: "Help me lead them."
Seven people:"… "
The smiles on their faces gradually disappeared, and even their words became a little stuttering: "Take, who will you take?"
Ruan Heng couldn't believe what he understood: "Oh, I see, you are talking about the little sister, right?"
"No, it's just my little brothers."
Ji Changze sighed and spoke to them in a very friendly tone: "As you know, I, the younger brothers, are naive, stupid, and have no academic qualifications, but they are indeed good children."
Seven people:"… "
They almost squeaked and turned their necks to look at the "good boys" behind Ji Changze who were all muscular, either short or flat-headed, and could eat three bowls of rice by themselves.
However, their classmate Ji Changze didn't seem to think that what he said was wrong at all, and continued: "The child is a good child, but it is too difficult to teach. You can learn it by just reading the book and practicing. I have said it so many times. They still can’t learn, so…”
Ruan Heng froze, and even his voice was stiff: "So...?"
Ji Changze's tone was relaxed and natural:
"So I thought of a good way and let you teach me."
He said that it was not because he was afraid of hard work, but because it happened for a reason: "They are really too stupid. I'm really worried that I, as a teacher, won't be brave enough to just knock a brick down on my head, so I can only leave it to you."
Seven people:"… "
So aren't you worried that if we teach them, they will just throw bricks and hit us if they can't learn it
They all want to save face. Even if they don't want to teach, they don't want to reveal that they are afraid of these "children".
I can only desperately make excuses: "Actually, we can only study. I remember you want to make a movie, right? We don't know how to do this."
--boom!
Ji Changze picked up a pile of books from under the dining table and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I bought all the books. I believe that with your excellence, you will definitely learn it as long as you read it carefully."
Ruan Heng opened his mouth: "My mother asked me to go back to the fields to help..."
Ji Changze: "It's okay. I called your family before I went to find you. I heard that you are going to stay in the capital to make a movie. My uncles and aunts are very happy."
He took out another pile of money by the way: "Of course I don't let you work for free, the money that should be paid will still be given."
As I said before, their families are basically ordinary, and a few of them are poor. Otherwise, Smith and the others wouldn't have been able to notice something was wrong even though they were strung on a vine like gourd dolls.
Although Ji Changze expected to use people around, he had one advantage, that is, he would return benefits to the people he used.
Otherwise, if you just order people without paying them, and just work overtime without paying them, isn't that unethical
Although he is indeed quite wicked.
After taking out the money, he still didn't move after seeing several people, but his eyes hesitated. Ji Changze slowly added: "This money is for one person. After two months of work, you can get this much salary."
Seven people:"… "
Are you so well prepared
Are you really giving no excuses at all
Ji Changze: "What?"
Seven people: "Do it!!"
Ji Changze continued to add: "If you teach a person well, you can get a job. Every time you teach someone well, the salary can be increased by one-tenth."
One-tenth may sound like a lot, but there are only a dozen or so people who don't have any acting talent and need to learn other things on the crew. One point for seven people is enough.
Upon hearing this, the seven people's eyes changed when they looked at the gang of boys.
If I had to describe it, it would probably be full of strong welcome and expectation.
It's not mainly because of money.
They just love teaching students.
The boys who were immersed in eating and working conscientiously as cooks suddenly felt a chill on the back of their necks. They touched their necks and looked up stupidly, meeting seven eyes that seemed to be glowing green.
Brothers: "..."
Faced with the natural awe of intellectuals and intellectuals, they did not dare to say anything. They lowered their heads and continued eating. After eating for a while, they realized that they were still being watched, so they turned around with their rice bowls in hand.
It feels a bit like an ostrich.
Of course, the outstanding academic performance of the seven students is not just due to their talent. There are too many capable college students these days, and their ability to stand out naturally depends on more than just being able to read.
In order to quickly make money for these small money, no, they are students, not only did they study those books day and night, but they also did not hesitate to disguise themselves and go to other crews to steal their teachers.
Ji Changze's vision is still very good.
Although these seven are a bit silly, they are so serious about learning the professional field that they forget to eat and sleep. Before teaching others, they must learn it clearly by themselves and explore it carefully before coming back to teach their younger brothers.
The boys who were selected to study various majors were dumbfounded.
Originally, when Ji Changze and others were practicing their acting skills there, they were still glad that they didn't have to go into battle, but in the blink of an eye, they were in a worse situation than the brothers who were practicing their acting skills.
In particular, there were a few werewolves, and they were sent directly to other crews for "training" at their own expense.
The main reason is that time is tight. The summer vacation is only two months. They have no time to learn slowly. They can only apply theoretical knowledge and practice teaching at the same time.
And those who are in great need of professionalism are not possible.
For example, photographers are not something that a layman can learn right away. There are also some other things. Ji Changze went to the talent market and squatted for a few days, picking up a few in turn.
When everyone in the crew was immersed in the "happy" learning atmosphere, Lao Wu looked at the account book and his expression was not right.
He came to Ji Changze almost crying: "Boss, I don't have much money left, what should I do?"
In order to be worthy of his status as an accountant, Lao Wu specially bought an abacus to calculate accounts. The abacus was shiny and gold, and it really looked like a golden abacus.
Every day when he had nothing to do, he would take his abacus and do calculations, practice his abacus hand speed, and even calculate carefully when everyone distributed lunch boxes.
As a result, when Ji Changze saw Lao Wu, the sound of an abacus was popping up in his mind.
"No money? How much is left?"
Ji Changze didn't ask why he ran out of money before the official filming.
After all, the crew is like this. With so many people eating, drinking, and eating, the expenses are enough even if they do nothing every day.
Lao Wu handed him the account book with a grimace.
"That's all that's left."
Ji Changze didn't panic at all.
"It's okay, I have a solution."
Of course, it's impossible for him to really sit back and have nothing, he just couldn't care about it for a while.
In the afternoon, Ji Changze ran out to solicit sponsorship.
In today's entertainment industry, the way everyone does sponsorship is relatively straightforward and simple. Usually the sponsor's father gives money, and then during the harvest season, the sponsor's father distributes the money.
Or the sponsor's father would give money to recruit one of his own to the crew.
Ji Changze lamented that it was still a relatively simple and unconventional era.
He is different, he likes routines.
Cui Jiu followed Ji Changze everywhere, always feeling unsure: "Brother Ze, can we make it?"
"It can be done, but the money won't go to outsiders. I've already decided who will take advantage of it."
Ji Changze took Cui Jiu to several companies but was rejected. He was not in a hurry or felt uncomfortable. He was still carefree.
Seeing that Cui Jiu looked worried that he would feel frustrated, he still found time to comfort the other party: "Don't worry, I have already expected that they are not willing to cooperate with us."
Cui Jiu felt that he was being tough. If he really guessed that those companies were unwilling to cooperate with them, why did Ji Changze have to ask for trouble and let others reject him
"Brother Ze, didn't you tell me who you would like to pick up? Why don't you go directly to that person?"
Ji Changze: "What did I say before? Supply and demand."
"If you take the initiative, you will be the one who needs it. You have to wait for others to take the initiative."
Cui Jiu now understands the relationship between supply and demand.
He could even vaguely guess who Ji Changze was planning to cooperate with.
After all, the other party only knows one Mr. Jin in the entire capital.
He just didn't understand: "But when it comes to this kind of cooperation, it doesn't matter who speaks first, right? Didn't you save Mr. Jin's life by some mistake before? If you open your mouth, he will definitely agree."
Ji Changze glanced at Cui Jiu: "You are still too young."
He was thinking about training Cui Jiu, but he didn't mind teaching him:
"I'll tell you some tips for getting along with people. If someone owes you a favor and you're willing to have a long-term relationship with them, it's best to show them that you need help."
"Let the other person take this opportunity to return the favor, and you will get along more happily."
Cui Jiu didn't quite understand: "Can't you come directly to the door and ask them to return the favor?"
"No, no, if it's not necessary, don't repay a favor. Then let's just switch from you helping me and I helping you to an exchange of interests. Although Mr. Jin is not the kind of person who cares about this, he Since we can let him take the initiative to provide help in times of need, why should we go to winter to ask for help?"
Relationships between people are always so complicated.
A benefactor who saved his life came to ask for help.
When I encountered a problem with a benefactor who had saved my life, I realized that magic soldiers descended from the sky to help.
The feeling brought to Mr. Jin between the two is definitely different.
For the first time, he will not have any negative emotions, and will feel happy that he has helped.
But the second one will definitely give him a sense of self-satisfaction, and his favorable impression of Ji Changze will exceed 200.
Looking further forward, let's assume that the cooperation between Ji Changze and Mr. Jin is successful.
One is that Ji Changze came to visit and the cooperation finally came to fruition.
The other is that Ji Changze had no intention of disturbing Mr. Jin, but Mr. Jin was grateful to the other party for saving his life and took the initiative to cooperate and finally achieved great success.
The two give people different feelings.
Both methods are fine for Ji Changze.
But for Mr. Jin, it can definitely bring him a lot of positive emotions and a positive image.
And looking further back, assuming that Ji Changze deliberately traveled all over the capital to knock on the doorsteps of other companies but failed to knock on them, Mr. Jin finally won the project and succeeded.
"Those companies that were almost able to cooperate with us lost a lot of money and failed to be the first to eat crabs. Will they not be heartbroken or regretful as they watch others get rich?"
Cui Jiu's eyes were dull and he nodded: "Definitely."
"That's fine then."
Ji Changze continued:
"In addition, [life-savior] [repaying favor but reaping big benefits] [several companies missed out on gold mines] are put together, information that is most likely to be used as a gimmick by media reporters. Just wait, it will be overwhelming by then. News about this.”
"Even though we actually don't make much money, the media won't care about this. They only know that this is good news that can attract attention and make the news, and they will only help us hype it up in every possible way."
"In this way, not only will Mr. Jin get a good reputation as a person with a unique vision, but we will also quickly gain attention. The most important thing in the entertainment industry is fame. Once you have fame, no matter which direction you go in the future, it will be easy. very.
Cui Jiu was already a Muggle.
He looked at Ji Changze as if he were looking at an alien:
"This, this is too..."
He knew before that Ji Changze saw things clearly and saw people even more clearly, and he was able to expose the deceptions and deceive them accurately.
But when I actually saw Ji Changze taking one step and calculating every hundred steps accurately, I still felt a bit shocked.
Cui Jiu couldn't hold it back and asked a soul question:
"You are so powerful, why don't you just go into business? If you go into business, you will definitely become a rich man."
Ji Changze: "I am so good, I can still become a rich man if I make movies."
Cui Jiu: "..."
It seems so.
Why are people like Ji Changze not successful
And actually, if you think about it carefully, he was really too prejudiced against the other party in the past.
Ji Changze did lie to his younger brother, but he never concealed it.
He does look down on people, but if he puts himself in perspective, Cui Jiu feels that if he can be so awesome, he probably also thinks that everyone else is a fool.
Moreover, Ji Changze did not harm anyone.
According to his ability, it would be easy to defraud people and money like Smith.
He did use some tricks on those younger brothers, but he was also responsible to the end. He brought these people from the mountain city, taught them acting and skills, and helped them make money.
Take Lao Wu as an example. Although Ji Changze is always aggressive towards others, Cui Jiu sees clearly that even if the crew stops filming in the future, the skills Lao Wu has developed by Ji Changze's side will be enough for him to make money.
It may be difficult to become rich and wealthy, but it is definitely no problem to have a stable job throughout your life.
You must know that Lao Wu was just a gangster in Shanshi before, and there were other people. Zhao Tian could only work hard before, but Ji Changze asked him to learn lighting, and now he has learned some skills. As long as he is willing to do it in the future , even without Ji Changze, Zhao Tian no longer has to work so hard to move bricks with his still immature body.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.
Ji Changze really did this.
He does indeed take one step for a hundred steps.
It is true that you can lie without blinking an eye and coax people with just one mouth.
But he didn't let down anyone who believed in him.
Cui Jiu's eyes gradually softened when he looked at Ji Changze, as if he were looking at an idol: "Brother Ze, I'm really sorry before. I only learned about your good intentions today."
Even Mr. Jin, who had saved his life and should have some confidence to ask for help, was concerned about the other person's mood.
Ji Changze is a liar, but he is also a very good person.
Ji Changze, who had to apologize as soon as he took a drink of water, put the water away: "Do you really feel sorry for me?"
Cui Jiu nodded guiltily.
Ji Changze: "Then go and run the company yourself. It's too hot and I don't want to run away. Anyway, just let them know that you are running under the name Ji Changze."
Cui Jiu: "..."
"Oh, by the way, bring me a bottle of water when you come back. If I need ice water, please help me with the money. Given our friendship, it's not too much for you to offer me a bottle of water."
Cui Jiu: "...Okay."
He walked out and didn't react for a long time. How did Ji Changze do good things while still making people think he was a bitch?
***
Mr. Jin doesn’t think Ji Changze is a bitch.
He felt that the other party was a very good person.
Because of this kidnapping incident, he was seriously injured. The kidnappers didn't beat him. It was mainly because he didn't eat or drink and was afraid. He was fine when he was rescued. Once he got to a safe place, that night People cannot wake up from the fever.
Mrs. Jin and Miss Jin burst into tears. This kidnapping also frightened them, especially when Mr. Jin came back and they learned that the kidnapper’s original plan was to starve each other to death and trap him. Gritting my teeth and feeling scared.
They originally planned to thank the savior together, but because of Mr. Jin's illness, none of them dared to leave, and the family of three was admitted directly to the hospital.
After waiting for Mr. Jin to wake up, he thought that when his health was better, the family would visit him to express his gratitude.
His daughter's playmates were all second generation and well-informed, so she told her father directly. It was said that the crew of the savior was out of money and was in the capital looking for companies with physical products to discuss cooperation.
It is said that they are talking about placing advertisements in movies to promote the products of those companies.
At this moment, product placement in TV series and movies has not yet appeared in China, and everyone uses advertising time simply and straightforwardly to advertise.
Product placement in movies to promote products sounds unreliable to many people.
People go to movies and TV shows for the plot. Who cares about what you eat, drink, and use? Even if you see it, is it possible that you can still buy it after watching a movie
Moreover, when advertisements are placed in movies, do people pay attention to the plot or the advertisements
Of course, it is better to put advertisements directly on the TV, which is the advertising time specially used for advertisements.
Because no one in China has done this before, naturally no one is willing to spend money to do this.
Spend money to appear in a movie just for the name of your brand.
Isn't that a big mistake
When Mr. Jin heard this, he was immediately happy.
Isn't this just a child who is short of money and has no choice but to come up with imaginative ways to earn investment
"Find me!! I can do it!!"
Mr. Jin was very excited.
At this moment, he is the white snake who repays his kindness.
There is a snail with a tenth-level nanny certificate in the squatting shell.
I can't wait to leave and rush to Ji Changze:
Kangkang me!
Look!
What a qualified victim I am.
