Those Years I Employed Non-Humans as Actors

Chapter 24: Little lucky star

Views:

I really want to.

Luo Huai opened the music software and wanted to listen to music, but Jiang Fen sent him such a private message through the software.

He and Jiang Fen have never been able to add friends on social software. They occasionally communicate through private messages on music software, and the number of chats is only a handful. Why did Jiang Fen suddenly miss him today

Luo Huai replied: I also miss the crew of "Fall House" very much. Although there are few people, everyone has a very close relationship and speaks straightforwardly. I am now in a large production crew with excellent service and complete personnel. There are two directors filming their own dramas. The average actor has a lot of meat in his lunch box, but he is a bit tired from time to time. What they said I couldn't figure out what many of them meant. Thanks to Brother Qian, he came to see me from time to time and told me how to get along with other people. Hey, I miss you.

Luo Huai has a ghost-inducing physique but has grown up healthily. This age shows that he is a very lucky person, which is also reflected in his stardom.

He tried out the roles that Qian Duoqun found for him one by one. It's called an audition, but it's actually just putting on a costume and letting the casting director take a look. It's not an important role, as long as the image fits.

Luo Huai is young and handsome. He graduated from a major and has a very good image. He was chosen for several roles, so he started his career as a bit player running around in a movie theater. He had just finished killing the heroine. My best friend, dressed in gray clothes, went to work as a servant for the hero's friend's brother.

While he was working diligently on filming, something went wrong for the crew of a fairy tale drama. Today the clothes of the leading actor were accidentally ruined, and tomorrow there was a problem with the lunch box. The extras and staff gathered in front of the toilet and queued up to have diarrhea. The actor who played the third male lead was so coerced that it was inexplicable. Suddenly, the third male lead suffered a broken bone and could no longer play the role.

People in the industry are quite superstitious. Some people say that this fairy tale drama may be hit by something. If we continue filming, we don’t know how many things will happen. Even after filming is completed, there will probably be various problems and it will not be broadcast.

The crew even asked a well-known Celestial Master in the industry to exorcise evil spirits. After the Celestial Master came, he checked around and said that someone on the crew was cursed, but with his magic power, he couldn't tell who was cursed. It can be seen that even if the curse is unknown, it is difficult to break it.

The master could only use cinnabar as paint and draw ‌ symbols on various places on the set, and sighed. If the amazing genius in the family had not given up and ran away from home, he would definitely be able to break the curse.

It is said that the talisman array set up by the Celestial Master can suppress evil spirits for an unknown period of time. As long as the color of the talisman is pale, it is necessary to find the Celestial Master to re-strengthen the talisman array.

After setting up the talisman array, the shooting went much smoother. However, within three days, the talisman array faded and became invisible, so we had to ask the heavenly master to reinforce it.

But the Celestial Master is really expensive. A single talisman costs 100,000 yuan. To lay out a talisman array for such a large crew, dozens of talismans need to be drawn, and each talisman array costs several million. If the talisman array is reinforced once every three days, no amount of investment will be enough.

Although there were only faint traces of the talisman array left, the crew took risks and waited until the talisman array completely disappeared before calling in the Celestial Master.

That day, Luo Huai wore gray clothes and played the role of a mortal who was hacked to death by the demon king in the play. He came to this already endangered crew.

Since that scene had quite a lot of combat special effects, everyone was filming in a temporary green screen studio. As they were filming, a gust of wind blew by, and the entire studio actually collapsed!

Luo Huai hid behind a pillar in time and grabbed a few uncles who were running slowly. The people hiding with him were not injured, only the plastic bracelet Luo Huai wore that day was broken.

This incident was so serious that the person in charge immediately called for a more powerful Celestial Master (200,000 per talisman). When the Celestial Master arrived, the rescue team also came.

The more expensive Celestial Master walked around the set with a compass in his hand and said curiously: "Huh? The evil spirit has been eliminated."

Person in charge: "Don't tell me, the whole crew was smashed on the back of the shed. Such a big shooting accident, what a powerful evil spirit this is, how can we get rid of it?"

The more expensive heavenly master: "The hexagram shows that a lucky star will enter the crew today, and the lucky star will attract the killing star to suppress evil. As long as the lucky star is there, the crew will be fine."

Of course the person in charge didn't believe it. It collapsed like this. I don't know how many casualties there were.

Unexpectedly, after the rescue team rescued the people, no one was seriously injured. The most serious ones were only a few skin scratches. Several main actors, directors, and producers were unscathed and were squatting on a pillar. Next, I was waiting for rescue with a dusty extra.

At this time, the Heavenly Master pointed to the pillar and said, "The lucky star is here."

Luo Huai, who had just joined the group today and hid behind a pillar with the directors, was recognized as a lucky star.

Everyone gathered around Luo Huai to ask. After a closer look, they realized that Luo Huai was very good-looking. He graduated from the acting department of the college. He just happened to be free and had no filming. It happened that the third male actor suffered a fracture and was unable to film. This happened. What are you waiting for? Keep him in the crew!

So Luo Huai unexpectedly got an important role. He no longer had to wear costumes that hadn't been washed for a long time. Instead, he had special costumes. He counted eight sets of costumes!

And when Luo Huai played the third male lead, the crew really had nothing to worry about, and the filming went extremely smoothly.

Only one day, Luo Huai had already signed a contract with another crew for the filming of a supporting role that he had previously signed with another crew. Since there was no role for Luo Huai that day, he went to fulfill the contract he had signed.

After being away for just one day, the crew started to have troubles. The slide malfunctioned and directly damaged a valuable camera.

The crew no longer dared to let Luo Huai leave, and insisted on keeping him here. Even if there was no scene that day, he would still stay on the crew and watch everyone filming until the entire crew was finished filming. From then on, Luo Huai became a "little lucky star" The number ‌ has also spread.

The pay for the film was very high, but there were a lot of fighting scenes. One piece of jewelry that Director Zhong gave me broke every day, and now I only have one ring left. Luo Huai couldn't help but complain to Jiang Fen.

Although it is only 9.9 yuan of jewelry with free shipping, it has the company logo engraved by Director Zhong himself. Luo Huai has always cherished this jewelry. This time he was lucky enough to play an important role in a big production. The costume teacher was very polite to him and allowed Luo Huai to wear different jewelry every day. Luo Huai wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to work hard to display their company's logo and promote their brand. company.

However, not only was the jewelry broken, but the location of the damage was very coincidental. There were several deep cracks in the middle of the logo, and the original shape could not be seen at all.

Luo Huai could only put the broken jewelry in the box with great care. He wanted to keep the jewelry well. Even if he couldn't wear it, it would be a memory if he found it again in the future.

Woohoo, I miss you so much. Jiang Fen didn't care about Luo Huai's troubles at all, he just wanted to express his grief.

‌I don’t know at all that Director Zhong is not a human being, but a devil!

He can film well when we are here, but when we leave, he doesn't regard us as human beings at all.

I really miss when we human actors were around. Director Zhong was so gentle back then.

On the second floor of the villa, the computer keyboard with the music software turned on was crackling, but no one was controlling it at all. In the lobby on the first floor of the villa, there were a bunch of ghosts of different shapes lying everywhere.

"Finally finished filming." Qi Wanlian looked at the ceiling absentmindedly. She was no longer as calm as before, but was lying on the ground with her hair disheveled. Half of her paper clothes were burned, and her whole figure looked like It's as embarrassing as being run over by a road roller.

"I seem to have lost fifty percent of my virtue." Fu Yue could not maintain her normal appearance for a long time. Her head was in pieces and she was covered in blood.

"Three of my tongues were eaten by Sister Qi. Master Dao Xing took them ten times. If he slapped them out again, I would lose my mind without Zhong Dao taking action." Shen Leshan said that falling in love with Qi Wanlian was really difficult. ‌.

Qi Wanlian: "Then you blame me? You brought your tongue to the door. The yin energy is so strong, how can I hold it back?"

Shen Leshan: "Sister Qi, let's be honest. It wasn't me who sent my tongue to the door, it was you who used charm to confuse me."

"I'm a pervert, are you blaming my instinct?" Qi Wanlian asked innocently.

Not only were the male and female protagonists quarreling, but other ghosts and ghosts were also quarreling. Fortunately, they didn't have the strength to do so, they were just quarreling and didn't come.

But that's it. Looking down from above, the lobby on the first floor of the villa looks like the scene of a brutal murder. Thirty-three corpses in different forms of death lie on the ground, and the ghost Jiang Fenxian is so scared that he cries. come out.

He missed the days when Luo Huai and the others were on the set. At that time, Director Zhong was very gentle and the ghost seniors were also very restrained. What is this now!

Looking up, the first floor is hell!

When Jiang Fen came to Luo Huai to complain, Zhong Jiudao was contacting his cousin Zhong Hongyan in the Zhong family. This was the cousin who secretly acted as host behind the family's back. Zhong Jiudao asked him to edit the movie.

Zhong Jiudao has already made a rough cut of the film, which lasts for a total of 3 hours. The rest will be left to Zhong Hongyan to streamline.

"No problem," Zhong Hongyan responded, "I'll go out to catch ghosts tonight."

Zhong Jiu said: "You want to finish the work at hand in advance so that you can free up time to help me edit?"

Zhong Hongyan: "Of course not. I want to go out and pretend to be injured by a ghost, so that I can find an excuse to retreat at home to recuperate. No one will disturb me at all times. Only then can I piece together a complete time edit."

Zhong Jiu said: "... Is it so difficult for us to engage in side jobs now?"

Zhong Hongyan: "It's like this. The Tianshi community believes that we are suffering from a disaster that has never happened before, so they have concentrated all the younger generations for training, saying that they want to gather all their strength to fight against future disasters. I'm here The main house of the Zhong family lives here. It’s not like the small apartment I live in outside. It’s crowded with people. It’s best to think of a reason to prevent people from casually breaking into my room.”

"I'll deliver a plague ghost talisman to you. I'll pretend to be infected with the plague. I might infect other people, so no one dares to break into my room." Zhong Jiudao said.

"‌ is ‌ smart, but the Plague Ghost Talisman must first find a Plague Ghost and seal its Yin Qi in the spell. Can ‌ find a Plague Ghost so quickly? Now it's In the peaceful era, when medicine is so advanced, where can we find plague ghosts?" Zhong Hongyan asked.

Zhong Jiu said: "Don't worry about this. I will give you another plague-clearing talisman. After you show it off in front of your family, you can go back to your room and use this talisman to treat yourself. Don't really get sick." ”

Zhong Hongyan: "Okay. But I never thought that I would actually realize my dream of filming. I admire you so much. Do you know? In order to cope with the end of the Dharma era, our family also invested in a movie, etc. It will be released as soon as the package is received.”

Zhong Jiudao was silent for a moment and then said: "Guess ‌‌."

Since the ban on movies with horror and suspense themes has been properly lifted, the Zhong family will naturally invest in a movie to promote themselves, otherwise the lifting of the ban will be meaningless.

Zhong Hongyan: "But don't worry, they will definitely release it later. There were too many people in the crew, and the filming was postponed several times. Originally, it was only 300 million yuan invested. Later, due to delays, an additional 500 million yuan was added. It is estimated that it will be 300 million yuan." It will be released half a month later than originally planned.”

500 million! Zhong Jiudao, the self-proclaimed leader, felt sour in his heart. Looking at his poor crew, and then looking at others, he was so envious of the abundant funds.

Zhong Hongyan: "They spent a lot of money to hire the most experienced art film director, their father, to personally supervise the crew. They also hired more than a dozen screenwriters to change the script at any time to ensure that the film is completely in accordance with the investor's wishes." I heard that it is about the Celestial Masters. It seems to start from the origin of the Celestial Masters. It will completely record the rise and fall of the Celestial Masters world. The movie is about two and a half hours long."

Listening to Zhong Hongyan's description, Zhong Jiudao couldn't help but say: "Will this movie be bloody?"

He can guess with his feet, guide the screenwriters with his father's old-fashioned ideas, and more than a dozen screenwriters write flying pages every day, so this script cannot be read at all. The film they hired for the art film director did indeed win major awards and a Grand Slam, but of course he was a box office poison. The film he made only won awards but was not a hit. So they hired him to direct. The popularity of the movie must be very low, because ordinary people can't understand it!

In addition, with an investment of 500 million yuan, excluding the theater chain's share, they would have to earn at least 1.5 billion yuan to barely make up the money. If they want to make money, the box office cannot be less than 2 billion yuan. Where do they get the confidence to think that their movie box office can be so good? high

"It's okay. My family is rich. Why worry about them? Let's make a small-budget movie." Zhong Hongyan said nonchalantly.

Zhong Jiudao really didn't have the energy to worry about the Zhong family. He drew the spell and prepared to courier it to Zhong Hongyan together with the film.

After finishing the editing work, Zhong Jiudao returned to his room and saw that the computer was on. He knew that Jiang Fen was using his computer.

He immediately checked the music software, looked at the chat records between Jiang Fen and Luo Huai, and frowned deeply.

If only one piece of jewelry is broken, wouldn't Luo Huai and the entire crew be exposed to the curse tomorrow without protection

No, he has to visit the crew tomorrow.
