The whole entertainment circle thinks I'm confused

Chapter 598 "Twilight" reading (5 more · ask for a monthly ticket)

But most of the people still couldn't help sneaking glances at Xia Yu, with different eyes and different thoughts - a film crew is also a small society.

Raymond, Vivienne, Daniel, and Antonio greeted Xia Yu after a long time, and fell asleep—they were all familiar, so there was no need to be polite.

As for Georgia, she arrived two days earlier—these two days of walking around with Yuan Bao, the daily life of a rich wife.Quite happy, Xia Yu is also happy, happy to have someone to help take care of Yuanbao.

The airport is not too far from Fox Town. The conditions of Fox Town are naturally incomparable with urban areas, but the biggest difference between Europe and the United States and China is that whether it is a popular city or a remote town, there are some facilities that should be available. , both.

For example, there is a hotel in Fox Town. It’s not too big, but it’s no problem to accommodate hundreds of people. As early as a month ago, it was contracted by the crew of "Twilight", and it was remodeled and fully upgraded—even including four Months, and it was remodeled for free, and the boss laughed from ear to ear.

A big bus drove twenty or thirty main actors, Xia Yu got into the "Bella's car" after getting off the bus, and the actors were Meng Dong, who had been promoted to the life producer of "Twilight" Started to arrange it.

……

January NO.16, Saturday.

08:30 in the morning, cloudy.

in a,
Everyone thought it was inappropriate, unlikely, and did not meet the stipulated time, and the reading of "Twilight" officially started.

The location is a high school in the original town, which is now temporarily renamed Fox Town High School.

The reading conference room is a classroom in a high school.

It can accommodate four NO.50 main personnel for meetings. At the same time, cameras are also set up. One is to keep the content of the meeting, and the other is to allow another multimedia classroom and secondary personnel to participate in the reading meeting together.

At 25:[-], the two conference rooms were already full.

One night didn't change anything—but no one had any objections to the arrangement of the "Twilight" crew hotel, and even, they were all too satisfied. Although it wasn't a star, the comfort was no better than that of a star Difference.

Most of these actors are second-, third-tier or even eighteenth-tier extras, special types, and they can be considered to be able to endure hardships.

Arranging the accommodation and food is also in advance when signing the contract. The life producer Meng Dong has already collected everyone's food preferences, allergies, etc. in advance. Everyone's meals are reasonable. The most thoughtful arrangements will be made within the price - this is what Meng Dong learned during his one and a half months in New York.

There are grievances, of course, even in the well-known Weijing City Studio, Meng Dong has experienced grievances in domestic production crews, but here, how could there be no grievances?
All kinds of discrimination, clamor, and secret targeting are not something that James, a big man, can dig out.

Even if you know, there are some very secret targets, can you really talk about them?Some private cynicism - if you really say it, you will face more embarrassment, there are only three things you can do, comprehensive crushing of capital, sharpening of human sophistication, and challenge of your own job Make no mistakes, help you win the hearts of the crew little by little, and slowly, let others take the initiative to protect you!
So in the face of malice and embarrassment, as long as it does not involve issues of principle, Meng Dong silently endured it. Even if Xia Yu called her every now and then, and tried to talk to her again and again, Meng Dong couldn't bear it—she didn't want Xia Yu Yu is worried, and it's a bit bitter, so she has to eat, otherwise, there will be some twists and turns, and as a little idiot like her, she probably won't be able to take the initiative to learn in her life.

After more than a month of honing, Meng Dong can basically handle the position of "life film producer" with ease.

Therefore, when they came here overnight, most of the people felt that this might be the most caring crew they have ever been to.

Xia Yu knew that Meng Dong would definitely be wronged, so she asked Meng Dong again and again, but she didn't expect her to speak out, the little girl was also very stubborn.

Asking again and again, but just want to tell her,

"Come on, you will always have me behind you, if you really can't hold on, just say, you can come back."

Of course.

Xia Yu believed in Meng Dong. None of the people under Tao Tang were trash. What she lacked was experience after experience.

……

In the surrounding reading classroom, there was a lot of whispering, but there was no disturbance for the time being.

Some were curious about Xia Yu, some were surprised, some were impressed, and some still looked down upon Xia Yu—so much so that when Xia Yu came to the reading room, many staff members were still smiling proudly or watching a show.

A small group of them don't think it's a big deal for her to play the leading role in a small investment movie.

In the eyes of these actors who don't know the inside story, "Twilight" is still a movie of Mingdeli Films, and their bankrupt sisters are just acting on behalf of them--and, the investment has not yet been officially announced. The remuneration, the dividends of several directors.

And so on, these are just high-level secrets of the company, and some people are used to thinking with one-sided thinking, so there is no way.

We didn't say that we didn't read and shoot according to the rules, but you can't control who we don't like, right?
The thoughts of these people are basically on the bright side, no matter how stupid Xia Yu is, it is impossible not to see it.

Not to mention Xia Yu, even the actors of the bankrupt sisters felt it—it was too obvious.

Raymond, Vivienne, Daniel, and Antonio have all seen it. The first two have long been old fritters of the crew. Xia Yu seems to be underestimated, but in fact he didn’t suffer at all. That's it.

When Daniel saw this scene, this simple boy immediately felt a little uncomfortable, but these people didn't pick any trouble for the time being, so they could only sulk and whisper to Antonio, "These idiots don't even know who their boss is." Can't tell!"

Antonio has been hanging out with Daniel and Bryan for the past month. Young people, one of these two is simple, sensible and warm-hearted, and the other is obsessed with music dreams. , and was quickly captured by the warm heart of Daniel, a strong little angel-sincerity is definitely a nirvana that no one can resist.

Therefore, even if Daniel occasionally has some thoughts that make him feel idiotic, Antonio will only complain in his heart. He should support his brother at ordinary times.

Antonio snorted, "You don't have to care about these idiots, or you'll become just as idiots as they are!"

As for Ms. Georgia, she was very calm. The more she got to know Xia Yu, the more she felt the mentality of this oriental girl.

It cannot be said that he is as calm as a seventy-eighty-year-old man, that may be too rigid.

What Georgia sighed was that her wisdom and mentality must be no worse than those old people who have lived all their lives.

Even her conversation sometimes makes her feel like she is communicating with scholars.

"This kind of trivial matter, these contempt and prejudice, can't cause any waves in Xia's heart at all... a group of clowns!" Qiao Jia sneered in her heart.And from Xia Yu's eyes, and the faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she seemed to be able to see a trace, an illusion that she thought it was interesting?

If Xia Yu could hear Ms. Georgia's inner monologue, she would definitely smile and tell her:
"It's not an illusion."

The main reason is that after "Stunning Beauty", all the people she met on the set were very good cooperative teams.

Even when Song Ang made troubles, Song Ang only targeted Dai Chengbi, and he was polite to her on the surface.

Of course, she didn't want anything to happen that would affect the reading process and the filming process.

But if there is, it must be very interesting, and she doesn't mind bringing one or two out to make an example to others.

But then Ashley and James came, and Xia Yu's "bad taste" was directly wiped out with a few words.

Both Ashley and James have the absolute right to speak on the crew. James is well-known in the TV circle, and Ashley broke up with several leading actors after "The Werewolf Secret", and several leading actors also "revenge" to her outside. The "excellent reputation" came out.

Not to mention, although it may not be a good reputation, but at least, after joining the crew, few people dare to provoke her.

The arrival of Ashley and James really meant the beginning of the reading round. As soon as the two entered the main classroom, the conference room, which was still whispering, was suddenly silent. Xia Yu did not sit on the podium, but sat on the podium very modestly. next to the first position.

As for the main seats on the podium, Ashley and James were in charge, while Zhuang Ling went to the reading room with Meng Dong to sit in charge.

Hollywood readings are actually not much different from domestic readings.

The few differences are that the producers and directors of each crew have different requirements for the crew.

Not right, the biggest difference is that a group of people has been changed - a group of people with completely different personalities from Huaxia, a group of people with a rather arbitrary personality, who are easy to manage but not easy to manage, polite are very polite, and rude Yes, the same.Moreover, the appearance of Europeans and Americans is indeed more outstanding, tall, fair, and strong, if these people are not a little crooked, they are still very seductive.

Arrived at 35:20, the roll call was first, and James, the assistant director and casting director, was in charge. There were [-] people in total, including the heads of the logistics teams, and more than [-] main actors. None of them were absent.

James nodded at Ashley, "It's time to start!"

Zhuang Ling and Meng Dong were responsible for the secondary reading of the conference room, but Ashley didn't care much about whether they were all there or not.

After confirming that everyone was present, Ashley nodded, coughed twice, and then spoke.

"I'm very happy. Yesterday everyone followed the contract arrangement and arrived at the crew - this is undoubtedly a very good start!"

"I don't know how you rested last night? I think you can also feel it. It is precisely because of yesterday's arrival that you rested for a night that you have the energy to cope with the next day's reading and the [-]-day period. The readings must be prepared in advance!"

"After all, I think you all know that I, Ashley Tisdale, am not a gentle person? If you don't mention the spirit of [-] points, I think... don't talk about the shooting stage, the fourteen days of reading, You will all feel very tortured - but, I think as a professional team, professional actors, you must be ready to meet my test? Isn't it?"

Ashley is already a glamorous beauty, but this time she cut her long hair and cut it into a short cut. With a straight face and narrowed eyes, she looks gloomy and violent, a bit of a vicious female villain mean.

If she is not an acquaintance and does not know her true character, she can really bluff people.

"It's beautiful, but it makes people shy away from it!"

After finishing her long warning, she glanced at the status of everyone in the reading room, and continued:
"First of all, I know that everyone must have never experienced it. The first day of working as a crew on the weekend? Maybe there is, but it's rare?"

"Here, I think I need to reiterate and emphasize once again, this will become the norm in the crew of "Twilight 1"!"

"Why? Because this is a contract that you signed voluntarily. Before signing the contract, we asked again and again. You all agree to work overtime in the form of increased pay, right? These are all contracted and recorded, so, No matter how unhappy you are in the "Twilight" crew, unless you terminate the contract, otherwise, the two and a half months of contract travel must end!"

"Well, I'm talking about the staff, the actors? Then it depends on the number of years you signed the contract, no problem?"

"Secondly, for the actor part, I know that depending on the role, it is impossible for everyone to follow from beginning to end during filming."

"But because it's the first reading, and the roles of most of the actors are not just for one season, so I still hope that during these [-] days, everyone can persevere. After all, the salary is already in place, right?" Ashley said in a rare voice. It was a joke, but with her cold and repulsive face, whoever dared to smile doubted whether they would be cut off.

In the whole classroom, only Xia Yu smiled slightly.

"Of course, if there is an announcement during the love reading stage, for other tasks, you need to explain to the production producer at least three days in advance, and issue a clear content - otherwise it will not be approved. After all, our "Twilight" crew, set, It’s two or three months for most people!”

"As for the timetable for the scenes arranged by the actors, I have already arranged it. After the meeting is over, it will be sent to everyone. At that time, everyone can arrange the time in advance-you can choose not to come, but The lawyer’s letter and the court’s subpoena will also be selectively sent to your mailbox, as well as to your company or home?”

"I have repeatedly emphasized here that the tone may not be very good, but what I have to do is to protect everyone's reputation and property. I don't think you will doubt my words and decisions, right?"

In another classroom, Zhuang Ling, who was sitting under the stage, twirled the signature pen, suppressed the urge to smoke, and grumbled, "It's so cold!"

Meng Dong, who was sitting next to her, covered his mouth and chuckled when he heard it.
