Huayu started as a substitute director

Chapter 66: Being an extra is useless (Godfathers, please read on)

If Fang Hong wants to accumulate wealth quickly, he has to gamble. Without gambling, it will be difficult to rise step by step. The era of smooth rise is over.

In two years, big capital will enter the market, so we have to be quick!

"If it breaks, won't you blame me?" Yu Xian said.

"It's not that strange, but as long as you take the photo seriously, I can still forgive you." Fang Hong said.

These words put Yu Xian under even greater pressure!

Yu Xian asked: "What about those actors? Have you selected any?"

"No, you choose it yourself." Fang Hong said.

“Fuck, my head is a mess. I don’t know who to choose.” Yu Xian rubbed his temple.

I suddenly have to take on such a big responsibility. It feels like a lot of things have changed and I have to worry about everything!
Generally, directors who are just starting out don’t have a clear idea about selecting actors, and they can’t figure out whether they are suitable or not.

Fang Hong took out his phone and said, "Then I'll assign you a male actor!"

After he finished speaking, he dialed the number and it was quickly connected. A male voice on the other end said unexpectedly, "Principal!"

"Zhu Yirong, have you found a job?"

Fang Hong asked directly.

The two had worked together before, so they knew each other, but they were not very familiar with each other.

Yu Xian was quite concerned and listened attentively!

"Not yet. I'm just playing a minor role in the TV series 'Confucius'." Zhu Yirong said.

"Can being a supporting actor lead you anywhere? Come and work with me. I have a leading man for you." Fang Hong said.

"Really?"

Zhu Yirong's voice was a little excited, this was simply pie in the sky.

I didn't expect that the principal still remembered him. He didn't even attend the premiere and went out to film other movies.

It’s quite unpleasant to think about it!
"Have I lied to you? Pack up your things and come here quickly. I'll send you the address." Fang Hong said.

"Okay, okay, Principal, wait for me."

Zhu Yirong was afraid of missing the opportunity and spoke anxiously on the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Zhu Yirong took off his ancient costume.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? The shooting is about to start." The assistant director of the crew stopped him.

"Sorry, my house is on fire, you guys should find someone else!" Zhu Yirong made up an excuse, took off his costume and hood, and ran to the capital.

He was in Inner Mongolia at this time.

Just like the principal said, being an extra has no future!
Fang Hong on the other side put away his phone: "I've found the male lead for you. He will probably be here in one or two days."

"What about the heroine?" Yu Xian asked.

"You can find the heroine yourself. Find whoever you like." Fang Hong said.

If he has to decide everything, Yu Xian won't be able to grow.

"Then I'll look for Liu Tianxian." Yu Xian said.

He was only familiar with Liu Tianxian and had only worked with Liu Tianxian, so the first person he thought of was her.

"Sure, I only gave you a budget of 10 million, not a penny more, you have to pay for her out of your own pocket." Fang Hong said.

Ten million is not enough to hire Liu Tianxian. The air tickets, accommodation, etc. for so many people are not cheap outside.

And Liu Tianxian will take away at least several million!

Fang Hong previously filmed "Those Years" in the suburbs, and the second one was filmed in the city, also locally. The production cost was more than 8 million, and it would have been even higher if it was filmed outside.

This made Yu Xian wilted. Why could Fang Hong get something for free but he couldn't? Why was the gap between one man and another so huge?

"Don't think too much, just do it. Being timid doesn't have my style at all." Fang Hong patted his leg.

Who can compare with you? Yu Xian didn't say that. He stood up and said, "You guys chat first. I'll go get ready."

Since his brother trusts him so much, he has to go for it even if he has to bite the bullet! "Hey, Lao Yu."

Fang Hong shouted, and warned: "Don't change the script."

People in the photography department have no problem with shooting composition, but their storytelling ability is not good enough. Basically, they all have this problem.

So leave professional matters to professionals, they just need to be responsible for taking pictures.

"Okay, I know." Yu nodded.

After Yu left, Fang Hong continued chatting with Meng Jun.

"Mr. Fang is really courageous. He entrusts such a huge investment of tens of millions to a new director." Meng Jun just listened to the whole process and was quite impressed.

If this happened in another company, no boss would dare to do this.

"I trust the people who follow me and am willing to give them opportunities to realize their own value. If you come to my company, you can also realize your value." Fang Hong said.

"Now I'm quite interested."

Meng Jun told the truth, and then said: "I just don't know your next development plan?"

Although this company is a makeshift team, he thinks Fang Hong has a good character and dares to think and act.

Such people will either fail miserably or soar to great heights. The bad thing about them is that they are too gambling-oriented.

It’s okay to gamble once or twice occasionally, but if you gamble every time and lose once, you may lose everything.

"Plans can never keep up with changes. All I can tell you is that I won't let you down." Fang Hong said.

Meng Jun smiled and said that all bosses would say so.

He stood up and said, "Okay, Mr. Fang, I'll go back and think about it and give you an answer."

"As soon as possible, I don't like waiting for people." Fang Hong stretched out his hand.

"Okay, I will give you an answer whether we can be colleagues or not." Meng Jun stretched out his hand and shook hands with him.

A financial officer is necessary, and the purse has to be managed by a dedicated person. Chen Zhixi is worried about taking charge, but that doesn't mean Fang Hong doesn't trust Chen Zhixi.

It’s a system, it’s a rule!
After Meng Jun left, Fang Hong bought a pack of cigarettes and put them in a black bag, then bought some supplements such as donkey-hide gelatin, and went to Beijing Film Academy.

It’s still the same familiar office and the same familiar people.

Fang Hong stood at the door and knocked: "Secretary Xu!"

Xu Jiandong raised his head, quite surprised: "Why are you here?"

"I came to see you." Fang Hong put the black bag and the gifts he bought on the table: "I am usually busy and don't have time to come and see you."

Xu Jiandong opened the bag and took a look. He looked calm and thoughtful, and said, "You are too polite."

It means it's a bit expensive.

"These are bought for Master's wife. Although I have never met her, when I see you, I feel that she is a very kind person." Fang Hong said.

Xu Jiandong smiled. The woman in his family was just a shrew, but these words made him feel good.

He put down his pen and said, "I heard your movie was a big hit?"

At that time, public opinion was very loud and it was impossible not to pay attention to it.

"Yes, the money has arrived."

Fang Hong took out a commercial bill from his inner pocket and placed it on the table, pushing it over and saying, "This is the payment. I don't understand it either. Let me see if you need to fill in any information."

The payee of the bill of exchange is not an individual but a support fund, and the money can be transferred at any time with the receipt.

This money is deposited in the bank on behalf of others.

You can't refuse to pay some money. You have to give it. You may need help from them in the future.

Xu Jiandong picked up the bill of exchange and looked at the amount on it. His pupils shrank. More than eight million!

That is a return of more than four times. I didn’t expect this person to actually do it. This successful investment is also a significant contribution to his career.

After all, he successfully supported the students and made money, which was good for his political achievements.
