This actor wants to pay more

Chapter 4 Peace of Mind
"The actors over there, after painting, how do you teach them? Do you still want to do it?"

The assistant director yelled this way with a loudspeaker, Qin Gang took advantage of the slope to get off the donkey, snorted and left, and Ding Xiu also sat back.

Wang Baoqiang whispered: "Brother, shall we still act?"

Ding Xiu acted like he was looking at a fool: "Why don't you act, who is to blame if you leave now?"

"Oh." Wang Baoqiang nodded, and worshiped again: "You were so awesome just now."

Ding Xiu didn't speak.

A few words to scare people are called Niubi. If it is spread out, I am afraid that he will be laughed out of his teeth, and he will feel ashamed.

Times have changed, and in a society ruled by law, even he would not dare to confront the state apparatus, and he would never even think about killing people.

Of course, he wasn't purely bluffing. If the group leader dared to deduct money, he wouldn't mind wearing a sack on a dark and windy night and letting the other party go to the hospital to lie down for a few months.

……

After filming six scenes in the morning, Ding Xiu followed the crew to three places, and finally waited until noon for lunch when he was very hungry.

The salary of group performers is not high, the job is not fixed, and they don't make much money every month. The reason why they do this business is that many people come for lunch.

After queuing up to get the lunch box, Ding Xiu found a shady place under a tree, no matter how dirty it was, he sat down on the ground and ate it.

Wang Baoqiang hurriedly ran to him and squatted down, eating his box lunch and smiling like a landlord's second idiot.

Everyone was tired early in the morning, and it was hot. We walked around for hours and almost passed out from heatstroke. It was a blessing to be able to eat a box lunch at this time.

Thanks to the lead actor going back to the hotel to take a nap, the crew will not start work for the time being, and everyone will also take a lunch break.

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, the machine started.

"The scene is cleared, and irrelevant personnel leave."

"The group performances are ready, and all departments are in their positions."

"Scene [-] of Abing's high school life, second scene, action!"

This time, Ding Xiu was still playing the background board. All the extras lined up and walked through the screen one by one under the command of the assistant director. Lots of illusions.

After filming one after another, frontal close-ups, lines NG, performance NG, after more than an hour, Ding Xiu's legs were numb.

The lead actor has a bad memory, and he makes mistakes in his lines one after another. As a group actor, he can memorize it. He wants to rush up and kick the lead actor away, and tell the director to let me do it.

"Who is that, we are filming, please stand far away."

Suddenly, crowds of onlookers entered the painting, and the already angry director spoke in a very bad tone.

Next to it, the door of the Jinbei car that had been parked for a long time opened, and a dozen blue-skinned hooligans with carved dragons and phoenixes got out, and a folding table was moved and placed in the middle of the studio.

There is a large watermelon and two watermelon knives on the table.

With a knife, the watermelon juice spilled all over the table.

The leader with slanted bangs covering his eyes, wearing sunglasses and a sleeveless vest, walked towards the crowd arrogantly with a melon in one hand and a watermelon knife in the other, much like the crow in the movie Young and Dangerous.

"Fuck, filming is amazing. This is a public area, not your home. I can sit wherever I want. Do you have any opinions?"

"Let me tell you in advance, my watermelon knife is for cutting watermelons, so you can call the police as you please."

It is a common occurrence for the crew to blackmail the film crew. They usually give some money and get rid of it. Everyone is not surprised.

The director was very calm, and calmly took out five one-hundred-dollar bills from his wallet, stuffed them into the cigarette case, and handed them over.

"Brother, we are a small film crew, and we are about to call it a day today. It's convenient, this cigarette is for the brothers."

After accepting the cigarettes and looking at the amount, "Brother Crow" was not very satisfied: "My brother is addicted to cigarettes, one pack per person."

"I don't have so much money, you hack me to death." The director is no worse than these gangsters in playing hob meat.

There are thirteen people, each of whom costs [-], a total of [-], which is beyond his bottom line.

Of course, it's not that he's not afraid of death, but he's sure that these people don't dare to do anything, and it's fine to collect some protection money. If they dare to kill people, they will be severely cracked down in this area tomorrow, and no one will be able to escape.

"Fuck, why should I kill you? My brothers like to watch movies. We can watch movies wherever you are filming, unless you go to the film and television base. Oh, by the way, the filming of your film and television base is over."

Hooligans are not to be feared, the most feared are cultured hooligans.

This group really pinched the director by seven inches. The other scenes were all finished, and only these few exterior scenes were left. The starring time was limited, and they couldn't be delayed. The loss would not be thousands of dollars.

Calling the police is useless, and what they say is true, it's just that it's not illegal to watch a show.

If you want no one to pass through this place, you can only report to the higher authorities, but the approval takes time, and the intermediate links have to be dealt with. It is too much trouble, and it is not worth it for a few scenes.

The director glanced back at the dozens of people behind him. There is another way, which is to let the group performers. There are too many of them, and the group can't help but fight. Perhaps bluffing and bluffing can solve the problem.

After receiving the hint from the director, Qin Gang, the leader of the group, said to the crowd in a low voice: "You will follow me in a while, and each person will raise [-] yuan later."

After speaking, Qin Gang took a few steps forward, feeling a little wrong, and when he turned around, no one followed.

Immediately, a group of embarrassing, neither forward nor backward.

Everyone snorted, they have knives, they are just wage earners who have left home, twenty yuan a day, what are they doing.

Adding [-] yuan is only [-] yuan, and being hacked is not enough for medical expenses.

During the group performance, Ding Xiu came out and came to Qin Gang's side: "I can settle this matter."

"Good brother, you will be Qin Gang's buddy from now on."

"You don't deserve to be my brother, I'll settle them if you give me money."

Qin Gang's face was a little uneasy, and he smiled to cover up his embarrassment: "Five hundred dollars."

"I want a thousand."

"Eight hundred."

"Deal, bring the money."

Of course, Qin Gang couldn't have given the money. He pulled the director aside and whispered a few words in his ear. The director looked at Ding Xiu and then paid for it.

Taking the money, Qin Gang handed it to Ding Xiu: "Director Wang gave you a thousand, brother, I'll treat you to a drink after it's done."

He thought that Ding Xiu knew this group of people, maybe they were fellow villagers or friends, and if he wanted money, he would act as a middleman, and it would be much easier for acquaintances to come forward to intercede.

After counting it again, Ding Xiu made sure it was correct, and put on a smiling face: "It's easy to say!"

On the set, dozens of pairs of eyes were all focused on Ding Xiu. Everyone couldn't hear the voice of the conversation, but the movements were clear.

Brother Crow thought that they were going to send a representative over to talk in detail and offer money, so he didn't bother.

It's really too much to ask for more than [-]. They didn't want so much. For business, the first-hand must be a little higher, and the price is almost the same after two rounds of bargaining.

In the eyes of everyone, Ding Xiu took the money, put it in his pocket, and walked in front of Brother Crow.

He didn't reach out to hit the smiling person, not to mention that he came to give money, and the crow smiled slightly to show his friendliness.

"You're going to stop laughing soon."

"what?"

"boom!"

He was answered by a punch the size of a sandbag hitting the face door, the bridge of his nose was dry and broken, and the nosebleed was bloody.

Everyone was confused, and so was the crow.

As for the negotiated negotiation, why do you start right away?
Covering his nose in pain, the crow pointed at Ding Xiu with the watermelon knife. With a movement of folding his wrist, there was severe pain in his wrist, and the watermelon knife fell into Ding Xiu's hand.

Then, a sharp saber slashed towards the top of his head.

I'm so cold!

His eyes widened, the crow's pupils shrank sharply, and his head went blank. Even if he was killed, he never expected to encounter such a desperate stubble.
