Is someone scolding her?
Su Qing had no way to verify it.
Soon, the time came to Monday, and Su Qing also entered the world of redemption.
Early in the morning, she drove to the set of "I Got a Knife".
I thought everyone was busy filming, but unexpectedly, when I went to the set, I found that there were only a few staff members, and even the assistant director I met last week was not there.
There were only two or three people sitting there boredly scrolling through their phones.
"Aren't you going to film today?" Su Qing found Fu Yihan's assistant Xiao N.
Little N's face was hesitant to say: "Shoot."
"Shoot? Then why is there no one?" Su Qing asked.
Xiao N sighed and told Su Qing that a lot of things had happened during her absence.
Because of Liao Hengqiu's injury, the film's investors withdrew their investment, and Director Gu has not been able to find new investment. The crew is panicking, worried that the film will be bad and they will not be able to get their wages.
Some people secretly contacted other crews in private; some complained, thinking it was all Fu Yihan's fault. If Fu Yihan went to Liao Hengqiu to apologize, maybe the investors could come back...
< br>People's hearts were broken, no one was interested in filming, even the assistant director didn't come.
“The investment hasn’t arrived yet?”
Su Qing muttered and asked, “Where is Fu Yihan?”
Xiao N pointed to the makeshift lounge next to him: "Brother Fu and the director are in there."
"Sorry, Xiao Fu, I'm afraid the movie can't be filmed."
Su Qing As soon as I walked over, I saw the director apologizing to Fu Yihan.
We haven’t seen each other for just a weekend. Gu Wensheng, who was originally high-spirited, now has a slovenly beard and looks down and out. His energy is gone, and there are two purple circles under his eyes. , like a walking corpse, Su Qing almost didn't recognize it.
Fu Yihan was wearing a black down jacket, standing opposite him, also frowning.
Hearing footsteps at the door, the two people in the room turned their heads.
"You're here." After seeing Su Qing, Fu Yihan's somewhat gloomy eyes became brighter.
Su Qing nodded towards him, and then looked at Gu Wensheng: "Have you not obtained new investment yet?"
Gu Wensheng glanced at her tiredly, and slowly shook his head: " Sorry, I’m afraid the movie will be gone.”
In the past two days, Gu Wensheng only slept for two hours, and he still found time to sleep in the car. At other times, he is trying to find new investments for the "I Got a Knife" movie.
It stands to reason that his script is good and he has made films with good results before, so it is not particularly difficult to find investors.
No matter who he approached, or whether the other party was interested in his movie, as long as he heard that the investors who had withdrawn earlier were from the Huo family, the investment would not be discussed.
It’s not like he hasn’t thought about hiding Huo Dada’s investment in movies. But firstly, he has a hard time with his conscience. Secondly, City C is so big that he can’t hide it even if he wants to.
No one dares to invest in a movie that was divested by the Huo family, because in City C, no one dares to offend the Huo family.
Unless, find shelter from the other three major families.
But why should people protect you?
Gu Wensheng reached a desperate situation.
The most painful thing for him was that just two hours ago, he received a resignation call from the assistant director. The assistant director said on the phone that he had been threatened by the industry and was not allowed to help Gu Wensheng with matchmaking anymore. He had no choice but to feel sorry for his brother.
The assistant director has worked with Gu Wensheng for many years and they are like brothers.
He knew that the other party's call must have come after a hard struggle. He didn't blame him, he only blamed himself for being too greedy.
If he had not been greedy for the huge investment from the Huo family, but had honestly found more smaller investors, or reduced the shooting costs in advance, actors like Liao Hengqiu would never have had the chance to be included in his movie.
If Liao Hengqiu cannot come in, nothing will happen later.
Su Qing walked to the water dispenser and got herself a cup of hot water: "Perhaps, we can wait a little longer and don't draw conclusions so early. Maybe we will have a conclusion in the afternoon."
< br>The guy Xiao Li recommended by Xiao Wang is very familiar with the process. Maybe he won’t need the afternoon and there will be news later.
Gu Wensheng only thought that she was comforting herself and had no hope for a "turnaround". But even so, after 10 minutes, Gu Wensheng forced himself to cheer up, left the room, and called the crew outside to start work.
Fu Yihan also had to go to the dressing room to put on makeup.
Su Qing held the paper cup and followed him outside.
When he walked to the door, Fu Yihan stopped, turned his head and looked at her uncertainly: "Will the movie find new investors?"
He looked more calm than before. a lot of.
But deep down in my heart, I still feel anxious and self-blame. He felt that he had brought "bad luck" to the crew of "I Got a Knife".
After all, he has never encountered a few "lucky things" since he was a child.
The water in the cup has become cold. Su Qing raised it and took a sip before answering Fu Yihan's question: "Of course."
That's what he said, but the situation of the crew was not the same. Not getting better.
Investors withdrew their capital, the second male lead was fired, the assistant director ran away, other staff members ran away...
Without investors and money, it is obvious to the naked eye that the film will not be able to be filmed. , these cannot be solved by Gu Wensheng's insistence.
Poverty is the hardest thing to hide.
The arrival of Liao Hengqiu and his agency was like the last straw for the crew.
“This venue has been rented by us.” Liao Hengqiu said. He broke his leg after being run over by a horse on the set, and now has one foot in a cast. He was wheeled here in a wheelchair by his assistant. Behind him were his agent, bodyguards, and staff from the studio.
The money Gu Wensheng used to sell his house and car has been used to rent props and use it in other places. Since Huo Dada withdrew its investment, the crew is now so poor that they can’t even afford the venue. Can't afford the fees.
Gu Wensheng planned to think of another solution, but he did not expect that Liao Hengqiu would bring someone to the set at this time.
Liao Hengqiu’s leg was broken and he couldn’t film at all.
When he rented this venue at this time, he made it clear that he wanted to prevent "I Got a Knife" from being filmed.
"But, we signed the lease contract and paid part of the deposit." Gu Wensheng frowned and looked at the staff of the film and television city.
The dispute here attracted Fu Yihan, who was reviewing lines and preparing for filming, and Su Qing, who was standing nearby drinking water.
"What's going on?" Su Qing said, carrying the cup over.
Fu Yihan, who dressed up as a "boy from Guaizao Village", also followed.
Seeing everyone looking over, the staff of the film and television city raised their hands nervously, wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads, and said to Gu Wensheng with an embarrassed look on their faces: "Director Gu, it's not that we don't abide by the contract, but In this situation, can the crew of "A Knife" get the remaining money? We are a film and television city, and we also need to consider risks."
The staff made the reason very clear.
It seems that the film and television city also knows about Huo Dada’s divestment.
It is understandable that they have such worries, but they are a bit unkind at this juncture.
"After you sign a contract, you should act in accordance with the contract." At this moment, a cold voice sounded.
Everyone turned their heads and saw Su Qing standing outside the crowd holding a paper cup.
“Who are you?” asked the studio staff.
Liao Hengqiu and his agent, who were sitting in a wheelchair, also saw Su Qing.
Liao Hengqiu may not be very familiar with Su Qing, he only knows that she looks familiar, but his agent doesn't think so.
"Is it you?" Liao Hengqiu's agent frowned.
The agent recognized Su Qing.
He quickly bent down and told Liao Hengqiu’s ear about the past grudges between several people.
“It’s you?” Liao Hengqiu’s face dropped.
The agent told him that the person in front of him was Fu Yihan's agent at Xinghai Company and Fu Yihan's agent at Hongxing Entertainment.
As soon as he heard "Fu Yihan's agent at Hongxing Entertainment", Liao Hengqiu immediately thought of the group of lawyers at the Horizontal Law Firm.
The lawyers at Horizontal Law Firm bit him like a mad dog. Wasn't it because he was entrusted by Fu Yihan's agent when he was at Hongxing Entertainment?
Liao Hengqiu stared at Su Qing with resentful eyes. For a moment, old and new hatreds surged into his heart.
Su Qing saw Liao Hengqiu's face turned down, but he didn't take it to heart. Instead, he drank the water in the cup leisurely. Fu Yihan, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but frown when he saw Liao Hengqiu staring at Su Qing with such eyes.
"Since your "I Got a Knife" crew can't afford the subsequent venue usage fees, then move out immediately!" Liao Hengqiu sneered.
The film and television city did not dare to blatantly breach the contract, but if the crew could not afford the follow-up expenses today, then they would have no choice but to rent the venue to Liao Hengqiu.
After hearing this, the rest of the crew whispered to each other and looked anxious.
Moving?
They must have been driven away.
The crew can't be so poor that they can't even afford the venue fees.
There was discussion around.
"Director Gu, there is someone from a company claiming to be a 'very rich' company outside looking for you." At this moment, Fu Yihan's assistant Xiao N came in from outside with a pile of breakfast, disrupting the scene. atmosphere.
He didn't know what happened just now, but after finishing talking, he felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere on the set. Why was the injured Liao Hengqiu here again?
Little N shrank his neck in embarrassment and quickly walked to Su Qing with the breakfast in his arms.
"Sister Su Qing, your breakfast." Xiao N handed the breakfast to Su Qing.
Su Qing came early in the morning and before eating, she gave Xiao N money to help her buy breakfast. Su Qing only took one fried bun and asked Xiao N to ask who else on the crew had not eaten?
Anyone who hasn’t had breakfast can come here to get it.
The venue is almost occupied. Are you still thinking about breakfast?
At first, no one came forward.
It wasn't until Fu Yihan was the first to reach out and take a small portion of steamed buns that the rest of the people who hadn't eaten breakfast came over one after another to receive their breakfast.
Liao Hengqiu and Gu Wensheng had an aggressive atmosphere, but Su Qing and the others had food full of fireworks like steamed buns, forming a sharp contrast.
Liao Hengqiu couldn't help but snorted coldly when he saw this, and continued to force Gu Wensheng.
Gu Wensheng ignored him, but walked up to Xiao N and asked him: "What's a 'rich company'?"
Little N had just finished dividing breakfast, and there were still two portions left. , thinking that Gu Wensheng hadn't had breakfast yet, he wanted to hand one to him, but Gu Wensheng pushed him back.
Gu Wensheng asked again.
Little N then remembered the person he had just seen at the gate of the film and television city: "Oh, that person said that he is from the 'Big Money' company and wants to talk to Director Gu about film investment."
“Ahem.” Next to him, Su Qing choked.
Tons of money?
What the hell is Xiao Li’s name?
