At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 62
Qi Xiaolei talked about a lot of crew accidents that he and his crew witnessed...

Generally speaking, crews with some action scenes have to reserve a sum of money to prepare for Wu Xing's serious injury and death.

Like overturning, blasting, horse dragging people, jumping off the car and falling down, legs being run over by armored car wheels...

A common occurrence!

"I've seen a martial arts show in Lavia once. The height was about three floors. The crew was lazy and didn't have a special stunt master, so they directly hired a group of extras to come to Lavia."

"Ensemble?"

"Yes!" Qi Xiaolei continued: "How can the group performers know how to play with Wia? They couldn't hold it back at all. As a result, Wu Xing fell straight down the stairs, and his neck was bent at 45 degrees."

Shen Xudong swallowed: "And then?"

"And then? The producer and director sat down for a meeting, and the crew disbanded on the spot!"

"Then... what do Wu Xing's family members want to say?"

"How would I know?"

"Just disbanded like this? Just leave it alone?"

Qi Xiaolei explained: "The disbandment is not for letting go, everything is reported as an accident, and the money is compensated, but on the one hand, the loss of this money will affect the flow of funds, and on the other hand, the family members will definitely come to make trouble. The disbandment is because the production team continues to burn money. , It is also to prevent the family members from being able to find the person responsible, so that they cannot ask for more compensation, and everything has been compensated according to the procedure..."

Shen Xudong frowned: "One life!"

"...Millions and tens of millions of investments, what is a human life worth?"

"You can't say that... how can human life be priced?"

Qi Xiaolei didn't want to discuss this, and continued: "The most terrifying thing is the explosion scene..."

"blasting?"

"I passed by once, followed up with a close-up shot, and just looked at the camera. I didn't pay attention to my feet. I stepped on it and set it on fire. A petrol bomb, a fireball set me on fire. Fortunately, I was wearing thick clothes. Cotton hat and mask, no burns."

"And then?"

Qi Xiaolei smiled wryly and said: "Look I'm on fire, the surrounding extras, martial arts, and camera assistants all came to put out the fire for me. The way they put out the fire is very simple, just kick. How the hell I didn't get burnt, It was terrible to be kicked by them, and then a field manager rushed over holding a shovel, which scared me half to death. I thought he would slap me with the shovel. He shoveled a shovel of loess and threw it all over me, and it was all under my clothes."

"…Ha ha…"

Shen Xudong couldn't help laughing out loud, he thought of the scene where Supreme Treasure was burnt - cut it off, it's all burnt; a bit crisper is better than nothing!
Qi Xiaolei: "I'm pretty lucky, after all, nothing happened!"

"Which play is it?"

""The Years of Burning Passion"..."

"The blasting team of "The Years of Burning Passion" seems to be led by master Zhang Baoying, and Zhang Baoying is from Bayi Factory..."

"No matter how professional the master is, he still has to be executed by his apprentices... What can you do if you encounter someone who is sloppy?"

Qi Xiaolei rolled his eyes at him: "In the past, state-owned factories had death quotas for filming!"

This is true. At that time, the shooting conditions were backward, and the safety measures could not keep up. Moreover, at that time, the shooting of film and television dramas was regarded as a factory production product, and the factory production naturally had safety indicators.

There are security indicators, and naturally there are obsolete indicators...

"I wanted to be a war photographer before, but after that incident, I changed careers..."

……

It's true, many production crews in the mainland are very wild.

Huang Qiusheng complained that the mainland production crew was unprofessional, and indeed unprofessional. Take the "Secret History of Concubine Yang" he starred in as an example. There was a scene where Yang Yuhuan was a child, and the crew caught fire. The actor who played Yang Yuhuan was still trapped in the room In , Xie Junhao rushed in to rescue the little girl, her face was severely burned, but fortunately, the skin graft recovered very successfully.

Another example, when Yu Haoming and Selina were filming the blast scene of "I Have a Date with Spring", the blaster miscalculated and blasted ahead of time, causing severe burns to Selina, and Yu Haoming was also injured to varying degrees...

These are lessons!

Shen Xudong wrote all these in "Notes with the Group"...

……

"Hey, you were invited by Zhang Jizhong?"

"Yes, Senior Sister..."

On the crew of "Tianlong", Shen Xudong is chatting with Chen Hao...

A Zi played by Chen Hao, she is Shen Xudong's official senior sister, a 97-level performance department in Chinese opera...

Shen Xudong was actually quite curious, that is, why did Chen Hao want to play Ah Zi?

It's not that she is not beautiful, but that she is too old!

Ah Zi, Mu Wanqing, Zhong Ling, and Wang Yuyan are about the same age, but 19-year-old Jiang Xin, 16-year-old Liu Yifei, including 22-year-old Yang Rui...

Why bother?
Chen Hao is 25 this year!
Her appearance is obviously mature and hanging...

Moreover, it has become popular with the heartthrob in "Pink Lady"...

Ah Zi is not a good character.

I don't understand.

Shen Xudong asked the senior sister, Chen Hao said: "What do you know, actors just want to challenge themselves! Don't you like it?"

"But Senior Sister is too beautiful, Ah Zi is a yellow-haired girl who follows Qiao Feng, I can't substitute!"

"You can talk a lot!"

"No, I'm telling the truth!"

From then on, Chen Hao came to talk to Shen Xudong whenever he was free...

It's really nonsense. For example, now, Chen Hao asked Shen Xudong: "I read your "No. [-] in the World". It is well written and very dramatic..."

"It's useless, Zhang Jizhong doesn't like it!"

"...Then have you thought about what to do? Such a good novel, it would be a pity not to make it into a TV series!"

"If I have any ideas, I only know Zhang Jizhong, a producer..."

"...Do you want my sister to introduce you?"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "No, I'm not in a hurry..."

"That's right, you are only 19 years old, and you are already the editor of "Dragon Babu"... Hey, who do you think is the best actor in this play?"

"Of course it's Senior Sister, who has played out Ah Zi's surly, ruthless, and infatuated side!"

Shen Xudong is not a fool... He must have picked a good one!

In fact, people who watched "Sky Dragon", who cares about Ah Zi?
Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, and then asked back: "Didn't you say that I am not suitable?"

"That's what I thought before seeing the senior sister acting..." Shen Xudong said righteously: "Now I have watched the senior sister acting..."

"How about it?"

"Excellent, it looks like we are from a major in Chinese opera, hang and beat those little kids!"

"Little brat?"

"...Mu Wanqing, Wang Yuyan..."

"How could you be so exaggerated..."

Although he knew he was complimenting him, the corners of Chen Hao's mouth still slightly raised...

Shen Xudong continued to praise, such as 'exquisite acting skills', 'capturing the character's background', 'proud of Chinese opera'...

Anyway, it’s all good words, let’s belittle Jiang Xin and Liu Yifei by the way...

Anyway, they're not here!
"Okay, stop talking..." Chen Hao waved his hand: "I have to touch up my makeup..."

"Ah."

"Give me your contact information!"

"…it is good!"

"Don't get me wrong, my boyfriend is coming to visit the class tomorrow, and I'll introduce him to you!"

"Senior sister has a boyfriend?"

Shen Xudong looked frustrated, as if he had been hit...
