Chapter 807 Chapter 806, Return to Beijing

It’s very difficult to perform without physical objects!
It all depends on imagination.

It is even more difficult for a group of actors to perform without props. Not only does it rely entirely on imagination, but everyone's imagination must also be consistent.

For example, here comes the black Venom in the movie.

The actors' faces have to show expressions of fear, but everyone's reaction time has to be similar. It can't be that one actor already feels the fear while another actor is still confused.

In addition, the direction of the actors' attention must be consistent but also differentiated. We cannot have all the actors looking at a certain point at the same time, but it cannot be too scattered, with some looking to the left, some looking to the right, and some looking up.

But fortunately, whether it is Anne Hathaway, Eddie Redmayne, Ryan Gosling, Britney Spears, or Jake Gyllenhaal and Natalie Portman, they are all actors with rich acting experience. The time for running-in is a little longer, and the last scene was officially filmed.

It is 2004 now, and computer special effects technology is not yet well developed. If it were after 2015, the actors would be able to shoot this kind of scene easily.

In 2015, Hollywood was able to develop simulation software that would allow actors to perform without props in front of a green screen. After the performance, the simulation software would immediately integrate the actors' performances into the already-produced performance scenes.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, standing on the shooting site, Jiang Feng, holding a walkie-talkie in his hand, announced that the film was officially finished.

When he announced the completion of the film, the first reaction of the crew and actors was not to cheer, but to sit tiredly on the set, motionless.

too tired!
Since we started filming "The Hunger Games 6 and 2" in June, we have not had a break in nearly 3 months.

Well, I didn’t take even a single day off.

There was even a time when a popular actress in the country disappeared near a filming location, and the police came to investigate. Everyone cooperated with the police while filming.

Now, the intense work is finally over.

Both the crew members and the actors can sleep well at night.

Jiang Feng is not an ordinary film director.

If a general director encounters this situation, what they usually do is to go to the shooting scene, say some encouraging words to everyone, and let everyone stand their last shift.

After packing up the camera, lighting equipment, props, etc. and loading them into the car and cleaning up the shooting site, everyone returned to the hotel to rest.

Jiang Feng's way of doing things is more pleasing.

Seeing that everyone was too tired to move, Jiang Feng picked up the intercom and said, "Just now, the producer Mr. Li carefully calculated that there is still 245 million RMB left in the production budget of our film.

Well, so be it.

Tonight, the crew still won’t hold a wrap party. Everyone, whether actors or staff, will receive 1 yuan. You can use this money to go out for a meal and a drink together…”

The effect is so significant.

Before Jiang Feng finished speaking, the group of stragglers who looked like they had been defeated by others suddenly changed into a completely different appearance.

He got up from the ground with a cry of "Ah!", and then, as if he had been injected with chicken blood, he moved the photographic equipment, loaded the actors' costumes, sorted and packed the lighting equipment, and moved the props into the container truck...

"Tsk tsk tsk, Director Jiang, I have to admire your method of motivating employees, it is so simple, crude and effective.

Work hard, hurry up and work for me. As long as you hurry up and work, I will share the money immediately."

"Um…"

Hearing Boss Ma's voice again, Jiang Feng frowned slightly.

Why hasn't this guy left yet?
Didn’t I make everything clear before?
If you want to confront me head-on, then go ahead. The worst that can happen is that we will all die together. I won't get any good results, and neither will you. You may even be remembered by the top leaders.

If you don't want to confront each other head-on, then just pretend that this incident never happened. I'll make my movie, and you guys go find your grandfather and say, "Grandpa, um, I found a very profitable business in China, and I want it."

But just as Jiang Feng thought of this, Boss Ma reached out and grabbed his arm, then dragged him all the way out of Hongping Town.

I didn't want to go, but seeing how mysterious Boss Ma was, Jiang Feng became curious. I hope this guy won't drag me to some small alley again.

Although Hongping Town is located in a remote area, due to the filming of "The Hunger Games" here, the number of tourists is increasing day by day, especially those blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners, who come here in waves.

Under such circumstances, it is necessary for the service industry of this small town to take another step forward.

It's like a small alley. Although the environment is a bit poor, everyone's service attitude is excellent. Even from a distance, they will call you "brother" affectionately.

After finishing the filming and finally relaxing, Jiang Feng was daydreaming when he suddenly realized that he had followed Ma Yun to the town.

The east end of the town.

There is a shop selling decorative materials, and next to it is a game restaurant without any sign hanging on it.

Because this place is close to the Shennongjia forest area, some wild game often "actively" breaks into people's homes.

The common people were reluctant to eat these wild game, so they brought them here to exchange for money.

As more and more people came to exchange money, the boss of the game business hit on an idea and opened this small game restaurant.

There are all kinds of animals here, such as pheasants, hares, snakes and bamboo rats, whose names make people shudder.

A month ago, before Guan Xiulin left here, she often came here with Jiang Feng and the children to eat wild rabbits.

A pot full of wild rabbit does not need any seasoning, just a few handfuls of peppercorns and star anise. Of course, you have to put enough chili peppers so that the stew will be spicy enough.

Jiang Feng and Guan Xiulin think it is a good thing.

Boss Ma naturally thought it was a good idea.

As soon as he walked into the game restaurant, he shouted to the owner inside.

"Boss, two hares, more chili!"

"Ok."

Although he didn’t know Ma Yun very well, when he saw that it was Jiang Feng who came, the shop owner acted quickly, picked out the two largest rabbits, and walked towards the kitchen.

The small game restaurant has no sign, so business is slow, with only five or six tables of customers a day.

Like tonight, in a large restaurant, Jiang Feng and Ma Yun were sitting face to face.

“Don’t look at it!

My bodyguards are standing guard outside, and they will ask anyone who comes to eat to leave."

Seeing that Jiang Feng had been observing, Ma Yun spoke first.

"How to persuade?" Jiang Feng asked with a smile.

“Just like you, they spend money. As long as anyone wants to come over for dinner, the bodyguards will give them 100 yuan and tell them to find another place to eat.” Ma Yun said while pouring tea.

"Haha, this is a great feeling!
I immediately notified my crew members and asked them to hurry over. They could get 100 yuan just for one trip, so why not? " Jiang Feng joked with Ma Yun after taking the tea he poured for him.

"Ha ha…"

As soon as Jiang Feng finished his joke, Ma Yun laughed out loud.

"Jiang Feng, the crew members under you don't think highly of the 100 yuan I gave them.

Let alone 100 yuan, even if we give them 1000 yuan, they may not come to take advantage of this.”

"Um…"

Jiang Feng stopped laughing this time.

We are all smart people, and now we basically have the same style of speaking and doing things. We say half of the words and let the other party guess the other half.

If you guess correctly, it means the other party is smart. If you guess incorrectly, then if something happens, you must treat it as bad luck.

"Boss Ma, have you communicated with those people?"

“It’s been communicated.

Everyone understands your threat, but after all, we are all well-known figures in the industry, so how could we be controlled by a farmer's son like you at this time? " Ma Yun smiled, took a sip of tea, and said:

"Jiang Feng, that's right. You now have the Oscar for Best Director as your amulet, and you are also the most famous screenwriter and film director in the world. These people will not be able to cause trouble to you directly for a while. But they will start with the staff around you. For example, the Yu Chengdong team that you hired with a high salary, in fact, they can also poach them.

Although you have a contract, we can still come up with the penalty fee."

"Um…"

This time, Jiang Feng was completely silent.

Jiang Feng did not move or speak a word until two pots of steaming rabbit were served.

Seeing Jiang Feng, who always seemed to be in control, fail, Ma Yun was very happy.

He picked up the chopsticks and first asked Jiang Feng to eat the meat, then he set his sights on a fat rabbit leg and started to eat it.

It has to be said that a hare is a hare.

The texture is chewier than domestic rabbit, and the boss’s method is to stir-fry first and then stew it, so the fresh flavor penetrates directly into the meat.

"Jiang Feng, eat!"

After eating a rabbit leg, seeing that Jiang Feng was still indifferent, Ma Yun greeted him again.

"it is good!"

This time, Jiang Feng started eating.

He ate two bites of rabbit meat first, then asked the owner of the game restaurant for a bottle of white wine, and then drank while eating.

"Well... Jiang Feng, have you thought of a solution?"

Just now he was in the mood to laugh at the joke, but when he saw Jiang Feng regain his confident state, Ma Yun felt very curious.

"Think about it."

"How to do it?"

"If these bastards keep pushing me, I will follow Mr. Ren's example and distribute all my shares, leaving only 1% to 2% to control the company, and the other 98% to 99% will be distributed to employees."

"Are you really willing to give it up?"

Jack Ma deeply admired Jiang Feng's approach, because in this way, even if related companies offered high salaries, it would be difficult to poach people from Damai Technology.

Even the most junior employees in the company.

But there is a difficulty in doing this, that is, Jiang Feng himself is reluctant to do so.

The world's first smartphone has now entered formal production. Once this phone is announced, it will immediately make history.

At the same time, mobile phone sales will crush all peers in the world in the first place.

In this situation, if I were in his shoes, I would not be willing to give up what I have obtained.

You know, it would be better to accept 500 million RMB from the second generation and give them 51% of the shares.

Because at least 49% is still in my hands.

At this time, Jiang Feng spoke.

"Boss Ma, if I distribute my shares to tens of thousands of employees in the company, I can at least win their respect. But if I sell 500% of the company's shares for 51 million, not only will I get nothing, but I will also become a fool in the eyes of these scumbags.

Come, take a look, the shares I have were sold to me by that idiot Jiang Feng.

At that time, we only spent 500 million RMB.”

Somehow, when Jiang Feng said this, Boss Ma's face immediately turned ugly, and even the rabbit meat in the pot no longer smelled delicious.

Boss Ma doesn't want to eat anymore.

He took out his cell phone and was about to go out to make a call, but at this moment, Jiang Feng took the initiative to speak.

"Mr. Ma..."

"Ok?"

"How about this, you talk to them for me and tell them that I have 3000 million U.S. dollars and plan to go to the United States to buy shares of a small company called Facebook.

It is an Internet company that was only launched in February this year. I am very optimistic about it.

What I mean is that I take out this money and invest in the stock of this company. If I lose, it’s my responsibility. After all, this money is out of my own pocket.

But if there is a small profit, it is a big win, then the money belongs to everyone, just like I, Jiang Feng, spend money to buy peace!"

"Bullshit!"

As soon as Jiang Feng finished speaking, Ma Yun gave him a thumbs up.

Jack Ma's praise was very sincere.

I didn't expect Jiang Feng, who is so young, to be so tactful.

When others force him to buy, he refuses to sell. This is called sticking to one's heart. When others threaten him, he resists with all his might, saying that at worst, both sides will be destroyed. This is called progress. But just when he thought that both sides were about to be destroyed, Jiang Feng played this trick...

I invested 3000 million US dollars in stock trading, and the profits belong to everyone; after all, everyone knows that I started my business from the US stock market, and I have my own unique insights into technology stocks.

The losses from the speculation are my own, which shows that I am not skilled enough.

Well, in fact, this is equivalent to Jiang Feng paying out 3000 million US dollars to apologize to everyone, so that these second generations can gain both money and face.

Thinking of this, Ma Yun smiled and went out to make a phone call.

In early November, the weather in Beijing had already turned cold.

Especially in the morning and evening, some elderly people even wear down jackets.

Although Wang Fei is not that old, this tall beauty still put on a down vest as it was getting close to evening.

Today, my brother Wang Ge came home.

He also brought his new girlfriend, so Wang Fei decided to go to the nearby Guiwei BBQ restaurant and order some stir-fried dishes to celebrate.

After all, we are all family.

The reason why I had to go there in person instead of calling to order food was because my brother Wang Ge had just signaled me.

The look in his eyes roughly meant, sister, find a chance to go out, I have something to tell you.

Although Wang Fei has been naughty since she was a child, she is still very obedient in front of her brother Wang Ge. She puts on her vest, takes the key, and walks out of the yard.

I walked less than 20 meters along Maoer Hutong when my brother Wang Ge came running towards me from behind.

"younger sister…"

"Brother, what's up?"

Wang Fei steadied his steps.

"Nothing, I just want to talk to you about something at work.

Well, JD.com is about to start large-scale financing again, and this time several foreign venture capital companies have valued JD.com at 10 billion US dollars. "

"One billion US dollars... is that so much?"

Wang Fei has a natural sensitivity to money.

“It’s so many.

Sister, the reason I'm talking to you about this is to tell you that if you have the chance, you might as well fight for Jiang Feng's JD shares for your child."
