Chapter 272 Change of Director

Zhou Huimin originally wanted to show off her female power and act like a big boss. She sat on He Daqi's recliner with a stern face, crossed her legs, and stared carefully at everyone in the crew, waiting for someone to make a mistake so that she could take the opportunity to attack.

Liu Ying and Wu Nannan stood on her left and right like two goal gods, clearly waiting to cause trouble.

Unfortunately, the good mentality that I had carefully prepared collapsed as soon as He Daqi finished his makeup.

Even though everyone in the crew had seen He Daqi's look yesterday, they were still obviously stunned when they saw it again today.

Zhou Huimin went to sing Qinghai-Tibet Plateau yesterday, and no one told her that He Daqi's new look was so stunning. The two of them didn't even discuss the crew last night.

At this moment, looking at He Daqi's handsome, gentle, and suave appearance, Zhou Huimin was mesmerized.

He originally had an expression that said "no strangers allowed", but now he has become dazed and stupid, and I'm afraid he is about to drool.

"You two... didn't know Daqi's new look was so good?"

After a long while, Zhou Huimin asked dryly.

Liu Ying and Wu Nannan were also quite confused. Liu Ying had gone to CCTV with Zhou Huimin yesterday, while Wu Nannan hadn't even come. When they heard Zhou Huimin's question, they shook their heads in confusion.

"If I had known this would happen, why would I play Jiang Yufeng? It would be much better for me to play Tie Xinlan!"

Zhou Huimin is actually a little regretful now. If she had known that He Daqi looked so good in ancient costume, she would never have let him be given to someone else.

Now that's what happened. She originally wanted to find trouble and establish her authority, but as soon as He Daqi's new image came out, Zhou Huimin's intention was ruined. She no longer had the mood to pay attention to others. Her eyes were fixed on He Daqi and she couldn't take them away.

With the first scene of the day finished, He Daqi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He reached out to pull the clothes on his chest open a little. It was really a bit uncomfortable to wear such a suit in such a hot weather.

Before he could move, Zhou Huimin came over eagerly, holding a tissue in her hand and diligently helped He Daqi wipe the sweat off his face. Without caring about what others might say, she put her arm around He Daqi.

"Thank you for your hard work, Daqi." Zhou Huimin greeted him perfunctorily at first, then changed the subject and asked, "How many sets of your costume did the crew prepare for you? Can you take one home?"

He Daqi looked at Zhou Huimin's fiery eyes and cursed in his heart: Damn! Is this going to eat me?

"Just one set!" He Daqi lied without hesitation.

"I do not believe!"

Zhou Huimin sneered and waved directly to the assistant director.

"How many sets of Daqi's costumes does he have?"

"There are four styles in total, and three sets of each are prepared." The assistant director replied.

"Oh, give me a set of each later. I want to take it home as a souvenir for Daqi."

"Okay, Miss Zhou."

He Daqi was so angry watching from the side that he laughed. He shook his head and didn't bother to pay attention to Zhou Huimin, the lowly woman. He went back to the parasol, turned on the fan, and lay comfortably on the lounge chair.

Zhou Huimin came closer to him relentlessly, without saying a word, just turning around to admire He Daqi's new look.

"You should pay attention to your image..." He Daqi muttered softly with his eyes narrowed.

The more He Daqi said this, the more excited Zhou Huimin became. She sat directly on the armrest of the recliner, and her little hands touched He Daqi's face in a very dishonest way.

"Can't I take a closer look at my own husband?"

"Don't touch me. I have makeup on my face. If I mess it up, I'll have to trouble the makeup artist to fix it for me."

The couple's open flirting left the other crew members who were secretly looking at them speechless. Now everyone understood that these two were not afraid of rumors at all and were probably even discussing marriage.

……

……

After a heavy rain the night before, the temperature in the city dropped sharply.

This is good news for He Daqi. In this slightly cool temperature, at least he won't feel too hot and irritable while filming in ancient costume.

But he was not upset, while the other people in the crew were not in a good mood.

Because there was another quarrel on the set.

Why say it again?

The reason is quite simple. Ever since Zhou Huimin saw how stunning He Daqi's ancient costume looked that day, she immediately became interested in this drama which was originally intended for official business.

Every day after Wang Jing finished filming, she would check the filming situation again, which made her care more about the quality of the show than Wang Jing.

Now the disagreement between the two people became serious.

Now Zhou Huimin doesn't need to find fault to establish her authority. She basically argues with Wang Jing every day, glaring at him with her almond-shaped eyes and a fierce face, looking like a kitten asking for trouble.

One of them is the director and the other is the producer. After they started arguing, the entire crew, whether actors or logistical staff, all cowered down and acted like quails, except for He Daqi, of course.

He was sitting on a recliner with his chin in his hand, watching the fun, and even thought that the fierce Zhou Huimin was a little cute.

"Fatty!!! I'm saying it again, I want quality! Quality! Do you understand? I've told you time and again not to rush the schedule, not to rush the schedule, why won't you listen?"

Wang Jing was also desperate at this point, and like a shrew, she put her hands on her waist and confronted Zhou Huimin: "What gives you the right to say that I'm rushing the deadline? Tell me what's wrong with my filming!"

"Ha!" Zhou Huimin chuckled disdainfully and then began to argue: "What's wrong? There are so many things wrong! The martial arts scenes and the stunt doubles clearly didn't perform well, yet you managed to get multiple takes right. And there's more! Many times the actors themselves felt their performance wasn't good enough and wanted to do it again, but you just casually brushed it off. Do I need to continue?"

Wang Jing felt a little embarrassed. He realized something at this moment. Although Zhou Huimin looked like an eighteen-year-old, she was actually a veteran in the crew and knew as much as he did.

Just now he just casually asked what was wrong with the photo, but he didn't expect Zhou Huimin to point out a bunch of problems.

"It's like this when filming nowadays. You are from Hong Kong, so you should understand that time is money." Wang Jing spread his hands.

"Stop talking nonsense to me! Don't you just want to film it quickly and sell the show quickly? I'm telling you, no! Daqi's makeup is so good, it's obvious that this show will be a hit. I want it to be a classic, not just a random assembly line production. I'm telling you the truth, there's a crew from Yonghui Qiming filming right here at this film and television base. If you keep giving me the cold shoulder, I'll just pull the director over there over here. I'll still give you a share of the profits, but forget about directing the camera!"

Zhou Huimin's mouth was thumping, and she yelled at Wang Jing, making his face turn pale.

He glanced around the crew secretly and found that except for the people he brought with him who seemed to be determined to stand firm, everyone else was secretly supporting Chow Huimin, including all the actors.

He knows why.

Take Huang Xiaoming as an example. The first time Huang Xiaoming saw He Daqi's look, he knew that he was on the fast track.

This drama is definitely going to be a hit, it just depends on whether it is a flash in the pan or an annual classic.

Why does Huang Xiaoming go back diligently to ask the teacher for advice every day?

Is it really because you are humble and eager to learn?

No kidding! He was doing this to get He Daqi's role! All the actors in the crew, except He Daqi himself, were quietly putting in their utmost effort, spending every day either reviewing the script or racking their brains to figure out how to make themselves stand out even more.

It is obvious that I have joined the G-Class fleet and someone is leading me. If I don't perform well, I will regret it in the middle of the night.

Under such circumstances, Wang Jing kept rushing to meet deadlines. Although the actors didn't say anything, they were definitely not happy about it.

So when Zhou Huimin repeatedly argued with Wang Jing about the quality issue, no one came to speak for Wang Jing.

At the beginning, there was someone who spoke up for Wang Jing, namely the assistant director brought by Wang Jing. Unfortunately, when Zhou Huimin and Wang Jing had their first quarrel, he just interrupted and was glared at by Zhou Huimin fiercely. He immediately retreated and did not dare to come forward when they quarreled again.

"This drama... from preparation to filming, and then to reshooting, more than half a year has passed. Little Jew, I can't delay it any longer. My mentality will collapse if I delay it any longer. Can you understand me?" Wang Jing said with a hoarse and haggard voice.

Zhou Huimin's tone softened, but she remained resolute. "I can't let anyone ruin such a great look for Da Qi. How about this? You'll be the producer. Calm yourself down first, or take a break. I'll call in the help. Otherwise, if you keep rushing things, you'll ruin the show."

Seeing Wang Jing remained silent, Zhou Huimin continued, "Don't worry, the agreed-upon share remains unchanged. I'll pay you the full director's fee, and I'll cover the cost of hiring someone to help out."

"That's it for now. I'll shoot until the new director takes over."

As Wang Jing nodded in agreement, Zhou Huimin hummed and said nothing more.

The set returned to calm. After a long while, Wang Jing waved to the assistant director, indicating that filming should continue.

Now we are shooting the shot of Huang Xiaoming.

Perhaps because he knew that his time behind the camera was running out, Wang Jing became much more serious. Before, he would only take He Daqi's shots seriously, but now he obviously doesn't discriminate.

He cut several times during one scene, and also taught Huang Xiaoming step by step how to pose and make expressions. When Wang Jing really gets serious, he has some talent.

However, his behavior also made Huang Xiaoming understand how perfunctory Wang Jing had been before.

Not only Huang Xiaoming understood it, but the other actors watching the show around him also understood it.

He Daqi nudged Zhou Huimin, who was lost in thought, and whispered, "Do you really want to change the director? Who can you invite over at this hour?"

"Can you invite the guy from your school again? If that doesn't work, let Ning Hao come. Wang Jing's mentality is not right, he has discovered it himself, and he must be unable to adjust. That's why he agreed to my suggestion. Otherwise, he would definitely insist on taking the camera and not give up his seat." Zhou Huimin was also a little worried.

"Let me ask Brother Xiao Ma."

He Daqi took out his cell phone and dialed.

"Brother Xiao Ma, what are you busy with?"

"If you have something to say, just tell me. You can't call me if you have nothing to say." Ma Yingjun obviously didn't want to waste time with He Daqi.

"Hey, what you said... is really accurate! Um, is Mr. Tian, ​​who helped with the photography last time, still available?"

Ma Yingjun didn't say anything. After a while, as if he had figured something out, he asked, "You're probably filming the show 'Peerless Twins,' right? Something went wrong on the set? I remember the original director of that project was Wang Jing, right?"

"Uh...Wang Jing's mentality collapsed."

"Hahaha, if I were him, I'd be upset too. Filming two dramas four times in one year, what kind of person can handle that? Okay, don't hang up yet, I'll ask for you."

After saying this, Ma Yingjun took his cell phone and walked out of the office. His office was next to the large office of the directing department, just a few steps away.

After a long while, He Daqi finally heard Ma Yingjun say in a strange tone on the other end of the phone, "Um... Lao Tian said that everything will be fine once the money is in place. He was originally going to the crew to film a movie on Saturday and Sunday, so it can be postponed."

He Daqi understood why Ma Yingjun's tone was strange. He suppressed a smile and asked, "Isn't Teacher Tian a director? Why are you still acting in movies?"

"Don't ask me. I was stunned for a long time when he told me just now that he was going to play the difficult life of the elderly."

"Well... um... money is easy to talk about. When can Teacher Tian join the group? I'm quite anxious." He Daqi asked.

"Where are you filming?"

"Huairou."

"Then he can join the group at any time."

In just a few words, the director of the crew took over.

……

in the afternoon.

Old Tian Gen got out of an old Santana with a chirping sound.

With a casual glance, I saw Ning Hao, He Daqi, Huang Xiaoming and a group of actors who graduated from Beijing Film Academy standing at the door of the film and television drama.

"Teacher Tian!"

Everyone gathered around to say hello.

"what."

Old Tian responded casually, then stared at Ning Hao and asked, "I heard that you were the one who shot and did the post-production for Da Qi's new film, The Gift of Room 7?"

"Yes, Mr. Tian."

"Would it be convenient for me to take a look? I heard the script is really good."

"How can it be inconvenient? Teacher, you can go to Yonghui Qiming anytime." He Daqi said with a smile.

Old Tian nodded, too lazy to argue with these newly graduated students. He gestured to He Daqi to lead the way, and they slowly arrived at the crew of Xiaoyuer and Hua Wuque.

Ning Hao didn't follow in and turned back to the crew of Balabala the Fairies.

On this side, Wang Jing didn't show any displeasure, but he didn't expect that Zhou Huimin would bring people over in the afternoon just as she said she would change the director in the morning.

Although he was a little surprised, he still led Lao Tian to hand over the crew seriously.

Old Tian did not rush to take over, but asked Wang Jing to shoot for another afternoon. He watched from the side. During the preparation stage of filming, he pulled out the clips that Wang Jing had shot before and played them back.

"My mentality has really collapsed..."

When he was watching the replay and saw that the crew was about to finish work, he sighed and said something in a dull voice.

Noticing He Daqi's nonchalant expression, Lao Tian sighed and warned him, "Daqi, don't rely on your wealth to snatch projects from people. It's bad for your reputation. I've heard about this crew every day at school, not to mention what the media will say about it."

He Daqi wiped the stainless steel pot very cleanly and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "I really don't want to take this drama. It's just a mess. I heard that it was seniors from Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama who worked together to force this drama to be given to Yonghui Qiming."

Old Tian curled his lips when he heard this, and he didn't want to watch this guy pretending to be a fool anymore.
