Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 258 The Principal is Busy
After the party, Fang Hong and Liu Tianxian went back home to visit their mothers, and then flew back to Macau early the next morning to continue filming.

After staying in Macau for about half a month, "Now You See Me" once again moved to BJ.

The two followed the crew to move to BJ, and they went back and forth like this.

This drama has been filmed for more than a month, and there is about another month to go, which will be filmed in BJ.

That is, the special effects scenes and the final magic troupe performance.

After the charity gala ended that day, CCTV did not broadcast the charity Bazaar program until the evening of the 9th.

It’s been so long that it’s obviously been edited over and over again. People always see the harmonious and beautiful side and never see any bad side.

Even if there was a report the next day, it would only be a picture and text version, with no video version.

Charity Bazaar raised a total of 4673 million!
As for how to use it, the news reports shall prevail. Little Karami is not qualified to ask.

The aftermath of the Charity Bazaar incident has not yet dissipated, and Liu Tianxian, Fang Long, Feng Kuazi, Liu Jialing, Wang Fei, Li Yapeng, Huang Xiaoming and others have always been the focus of public opinion.

Liu Tianxian is the face of the charity Bazaar. Her name will be mentioned in any news.

She didn't donate much money. She donated the same amount as others did, just as she helped Fang Hong donate.

No less than others, no more than others!

Yutu's "Cold War" will also be released at the end of September, during the National Day holiday. This is a film shot by Wang Ran imitating Hong Kong films.

As for how the photo is taken, it doesn’t matter.

Fang Hong didn't ask for the photos to be very good. If he didn't take them, someone else would.

The real thing is to walk in other people's paths and leave them with no way to go.

As one of the leading actors, Zhang Songwen will leave the crew at the end of September for some publicity, and he will be busy filming his dramas during this period.

The weather in BJ started to get cooler in late September, and some people started wearing coats. Liu Tianxian also put on a leather jacket.

Fang Hong still wore short sleeves.

"Aren't you cold wearing this?" Liu Tianxian asked him.

"It's not cold, I'm just very angry." Fang Hong said.

Liu Tianxian touched his exposed arm with a smile, and it still felt warm.

It's her fault for not cooling down the man!
"Buzz!"

Fang Hong's phone vibrated. He saw that it was Chen Zhixi calling, and then walked away to a place where there was no one.

Liu Tianxian glanced at it but didn't care.

"You should be careful during this period. Several crews of "The Heirs" and "Lucky Key" have some extras or temporary workers causing trouble." Chen Zhixi said.

"Lucky Key" is the Japanese version of "How to Steal a Key". The Chinese version in the previous life was called "The Crowd". Fang Hong felt that the name was not nice and it would be more appropriate to call it "Lucky Key" according to the Korean version.

This is Yutu’s new film project, which was filmed not long ago and is expected to be released in the middle of next year.

This play is starred by Guo Jingfei and Liu Yijun. The way this guy dresses up really gives him the temperament of a big boss, and he also has a murderous aura. He can also act in a state of amnesia, so his acting skills are fine.

At least he is much more handsome and has more temperament than the Korean version.

The female lead was still played by Wan Qian!

There are many good actors in the entertainment industry as long as you are willing to give them a chance.

"What's going on? Wasn't everything fine before?" Fang Hong didn't understand.

"They are here to ask for money, but we have paid this money with the leader of their gang. The leader of their gang took more kickbacks, so he slandered us for giving too little. That's why these people came to us to ask for it." Chen Zhixi explained the whole story.

The group leader hired some people to do odd jobs in the crew. The money they were supposed to pay was settled with their group leader, but the group leader took a large portion of it as kickbacks and then slandered the crew by saying that they did not pay.

Let those lower-class people come to their crew to cause trouble, while these vested interests watch from behind.

That's probably what it means.

"Is it solved?" Fang Hong asked.

"Everything has been resolved for now, but you still have to be careful. Someone is probably going to cause trouble on your crew," Chen Zhixi reminded.

She could also guess that someone was organizing it, but this matter could be settled by spending some money and would not have much impact.

But it can disgust Fang Hong. If he finds more people to cause trouble every few days, and delays it for one or two days, or three or five days, it can also delay the crew's work schedule.

If someone can't help themselves and a fight breaks out, that's what the people behind the scenes want to see. They want to take the opportunity to make a big deal out of it and force the crew to stop working.

People at the bottom of society can really work hard for the little money they have, but the crew cannot do without extras, which can be said to be very cruel.

"I see."

Fang Hong hung up the phone and did not go back. Instead, he just stood there with his head down, looking at the grass on the ground, thinking about how to deal with the situation.

This kind of thing cannot be dealt with recklessly, it can only be solved properly. Those extras and temporary workers earn dozens or hundreds of yuan a day, and they don't care about any conspiracies or tricks. They just want the money if it's in place, and they'll take it if it's not.

There's no way you can do anything to those people, as it might turn into a fight. You can't bother with it either, as that would just be a trap for the other party.

Public opinion will say that you earn so much money, but the crew doesn’t even give you 100 yuan, how disgusting!

Liu Tianxian saw him standing there motionless after finishing the call, so she came over and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Fang Hong shook his head.

Liu Tianxian looked at him seriously and saw that his face was serious, so she felt that something must be wrong.

But Fang Hong didn't say anything, and she didn't dare to ask!
The crew is currently on a closed street road in the suburbs, where they are filming a car crash scene where people are killed. Zhu Yilong came back to life through this scene.

Huge green curtains are also arranged on both sides of the highway, and the two sides will be rendered into prosperous high-rise buildings in the future.

During the filming, there would be little green men holding green soft sticks running around the streets. Since it was impossible for them to actually hit pedestrians or extras, these were all post-production special effects.

As it is a big drama, there are many crew members. They are working on the set, the assistant director is directing, and the production team is coordinating.

The filming started soon after. Liu Tianxian didn't need to appear in this scene, the main focus was on filming Zhu Yilong coming back to life!
"If you don't pay today, don't shoot this movie." Just as they were busy, an angry roar suddenly occurred.

Fang Hong and Liu Tianxian looked back and saw about eight people rushing towards them aggressively, as if they were seeking justice.

Lu Dabao organized a group of people to stop them.

But those people were still rushing over here, shouting and yelling.

Due to the noise, the filming had to be paused, but the staff stayed where they were and did not move. Only some elderly people or relevant people went up to watch the situation.

There are too many people, hundreds of people around!
Han Jianu also realized something was wrong and quickly ran over to push aside the crowd to inquire about what was going on.

"What are you doing?"

"Are you still asking us what we do? How can you work for us without paying us? If you don't get paid today, you can't shoot this movie." A dark-skinned man in a sweatshirt pointed at Han Jianu and shouted.

Others beside him also waved and agreed: "Yes, if you don't pay, don't shoot this movie."

They all look very fierce.

"As long as anyone works here, we pay them on a daily basis. No one's salary is owed. You should have been introduced by the group leader. You should find the group leader. We have settled the wages for them." Han Jianu explained.

"I found out. It was originally 80 yuan a day, but the group leader only gave us 50 yuan a day. We worked for five days, and they gave us 250 yuan, saying that you only gave us this much, and also said that we deducted it because we didn't work hard. If we want the money back, we can go to you to reason."

The dark-skinned man shouted.

This made the people around look surprised. This was too little. Did they remember to take more than this?
However, they have a certain organization and will follow the team throughout the whole process. It is not something they do for just one or two days.

Even for those temporary stays of one or two days, the price is more than this, the standard is three digits!
Fang Hong and Liu Tianxian also went to the periphery to watch!

"Then let me make it clear to you. We pay your group leader 150 per person per day. No matter how well they do, we have never deducted money from anyone. It was your group leader who took the kickbacks. You should go to your group leader to ask for it, not us." Han Jianu said.

"Our group leader said that you only gave us this much and asked us to ask you for it. He also said that we deducted it because we didn't work hard enough. How could we not work hard enough?" Another older man reasoned and repeated what he had just said.

"I told you that our crew will only pay you as a group. You will be paid according to the number of people. We will not deduct any fees from anyone and we will not get involved in your affairs."

Han Jianu was too lazy to talk to them. She waved her hand to signal Lu Dabao to clear the area and acted decisively.

These people lost this little money, and the crew lost this little time, totaling more than 100,000 yuan.

Lu Dabao and his men pushed several people out.

"We won't leave if we don't get the money today. Even if I die, I'd rather die here." An old man shouted and lay down on the ground.

Others followed suit.

This put the crew's staff in a difficult position, and they didn't know how to do it. The onlookers also felt a little sorry for them, as they were just ordinary people, so why not just give them the money?

"Carry him away." Lu Dabo was cold and ruthless.

"stop."

Just as several groundskeepers were about to take action, they heard the principal's voice and stopped. Everyone present looked at them sideways.

The crowd was separated into a path, Lu Dabao also made way to protect it, and Han Jianu moved two steps to the side.

Fang Hong walked up to the men who were asking for money and looked down at them: "Do you know me?"

"Of course I know you. You're the principal and the big boss." said a man lying on the ground.

"Then can I give you justice?" Fang Hong said.

"of course can!"

Someone was about to stand up, but was stopped by another person: "We just want money, we don't understand your justice."

There are still sober people who know that if they discuss justice and law with someone like this principal, they will lose no matter what.

It was originally a temporary position and he didn't sign any labor contract with the crew of "Now You See Me".

If it’s hard to make trouble in the group, then go find the crew to make trouble!
"Okay, now that I understand the whole story, if it's our crew's fault, we will make up for what you owe us and give each of you 1,000 yuan as compensation. If it's not our crew's fault, all we need is for you to apologize. Is that okay?" Fang Hong said earnestly.

The eight people looked at each other and thought it was feasible!

"Stand up and talk. The ground is dirty." Fang Hong saw them wavering and bent down to help an old man up.

This made the old man feel flattered. He didn't dare ask the principal for help. He got up from the ground and dusted off the dust on his body.

The rest of the people also stood up.

Some people around were watching and noticed that at this moment the principal had returned to the way he was when they first started their business.

Easy to approach and nice to everyone!

But they didn’t know that Fang Hong at that time was striving for success, while Fang Hong at this moment couldn’t stand it any longer.

It’s fine if they just fight, but they also take advantage of these low-level people. They’re not human beings!
"I hope you can all talk nicely and don't lose your temper. Losing your temper won't solve anything. I'm not filming now, so let's just talk things out here and solve them on the spot. If you don't make it clear, I won't know what happened, right!" Fang Hong said.

"Principal, you are so busy that of course you can't pay attention to us." Someone complained with his head down.

Another person touched the man's arm and signaled him not to complain, saying it was good enough that the principal helped them solve the problem.
