Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 432

"Hong Yi, look, the food these actors eat is different."

"A classmate just asked about it and said that the ones beside the stone table are actors invited by Hong Kong City."

"Oh."

With a "Oh", the doubts are eliminated, it seems to be a matter of course.

Li Jiankun felt a sense of sadness when he saw that his classmates were rushing to see the sets and no one was paying attention to them anymore.

We seem to have become accustomed to being harsh on ourselves and generous to outsiders.

I don’t know when this became a virtue.

But this does not make those outsiders look down upon us.

Similar things happened frequently in later generations.

What Li Jiankun was thinking at this moment was, how much impact would such inequality have on Li Lianjie's immature minds?

Is this why he ran away later?

At this moment, Li Lianjie finally noticed a stranger in front of him. He raised his head in surprise and asked, "Who are you?"

Li Jiankun asked: "You are the starring role in this drama, right?"

Li Lianjie nodded.

"Let's talk?" Li Jiankun invited, "I am one of the investors of this drama."

After learning his identity, Li Lianjie's eyes lit up, and he was full of bitterness.

Although it was cabbage and tofu rice, he still didn't waste it. He finished it in a few seconds and handed the lunch box to another "little monk" to keep for safekeeping. Together with Li Jiankun, he went to the deserted land.

Not long after, the two of them sat on a long stone chair by the lake and started talking.

Li Lianjie said angrily: "Obviously I am more tired than them, so I have to keep beating them, and they will take turns to beat them all. But they can eat meat, but I can't."

What a simple request, just to be able to eat meat.

Li Jiankun asked: "Where's the salary? How much do you get per day?"

"piece."

"where are they?"

"Hundreds!"

Li Jiankun was silent.

Li Lianjie added: "Actually, one yuan a day is enough. Do you know what's the most annoying thing? Last time we were filming in Beijing, their meals were ordered from the Capital Hotel, and we were from another hotel. I saved up money and wanted to go to the Capital Hotel. Buy a bottle of Coke and don’t let me in.”

When he said this, tears flashed in his eyes.

Li Jiankun felt heavy. Through this incident, he thought of a lot.How many people like "little monks" are there in other industries or fields?

After experiencing this, one day, when they are able, they will leave.It seems that it is not incomprehensible.

And these are elites from all walks of life.

Brain drain.

He wanted to do something, but felt powerless. What a huge social problem this was. How could it be done with just one person's efforts?

"You are one of the investors, can you... let us have the same meal as them? I promise!"

Li Lianjie raised his hand and said: "We must fight hard and perform the best scenes. We will be energetic if we have a good meal, right?"

This sudden sentence pulled Li Jiankun back from his thoughts.He suddenly felt relieved, that's all, since he knew that he couldn't do anything, why bother with it?

If you can't solve everything, at least...solve the problems you encounter.

"it is good."

"Really?!" Li Lianjie jumped up excitedly.

"of course."

"I'm going to tell them the good news!"

Li Lianjie danced and swished to tell the other young monks the great news.

-

"You want to invest more? But we don't accept investment anymore."

“It’s not additional investment, it’s pure sponsorship.”

Li Jiankun approached Chen Yongren and expressed his intention to sponsor the mainland actors on the crew to eat better.But he didn't expect that such a good thing would be rejected.

Chen Yongren looked at him deeply and said: "You are a caring person. I understand that you have good intentions, but have you ever thought about it? The living conditions and salary levels in the mainland are only to this extent, and every crew Same. Our crew's inexplicable increase in salary will put pressure on other crews and make other actors have bad emotions."

"You are doing this now. Hong Kong actors are different everywhere, but mainland actors have no emotions?!"

Li Jiankun was a little angry. It seemed reasonable, but in fact it was nonsense.

Chen Yongren looked surprised. Until now, he had thought that the other party was from Hong Kong. He didn't expect that the other party was so considerate of the mainlanders.

"However, that's just an external emotion. We are still very united internally."

Li Jiankun really wanted to slap him on the elm head.

"That's just your imagination. A film and television project doesn't fix the treatment of actors from now on. You, the crew, obviously have the opportunity to improve the food for mainland actors, but you still don't accept it. Those 'little monks' deserve to suffer!"

Chen Yongren pressed his lips together and did not reply.

"I'm just improving their food! Food! I didn't say I would give them a salary increase!"

Seeing that he was so angry, Chen Yongren hurriedly poured water and said: "Okay, I will try my best to make arrangements."

Today, Li Jiankun has finally seen another characteristic of the 80s - ignorance.

<divclass="contentadv">Chen Yongren resigned and made a phone call.

Needless to say, Li Jiankun’s dual background as an investor and a “Hong Kong businessman” played a key role.

Otherwise, this matter might not even be possible.

Filmmaking these days will be considered a trivial matter for future generations. The crew and actors can save as much as they can. There are not many people. It actually doesn't cost much to raise them to the same food standard as the actors in Hong Kong.

After Chen Yongren came back, he checked with the financial department and found that the film would be completed in one more quarter, and 5000 yuan was more than enough.

Li Jiankun paid it on the spot.

"Senior Li, I've been looking for you everywhere. Get ready to leave."

We spent most of the afternoon at "Fish Watching in Huagang" and saw many novel things in filmmaking. The Yanyuan students all had a great time. It was getting late, so Qiao Qiaoyun and Shen Hongyi found Li Jiankun together.

"What to say next?" Li Jiankun asked.

"Qiu Jiaqi will arrange a place to stay tonight, and get up and go to the train station tomorrow."

"Why don't you go first? He must have missed me. I'll wait at the station tomorrow morning."

Qiao Qiaoyun used the toe of her tendon-soled sandal to grind it on the ground, as if stepping on a villain, and said with a pout, "He is so narrow-minded."

Shen Hongyi pursed her lips and smiled softly.

Li Jiankun shrugged and said, "Do you think I care?"

The two girls thought about the person in charge of the film crew and they both respected him so much. Isn't it easy to find a place to sleep?Without saying anything more, he bowed his hands and left together.

"Hong Yi, you have to figure this out after you return to Beijing. You can't even find out the details of your own men. What are you doing?"

"you shut up."

"Hey, you're still blushing. If you don't want to marry me, I'll marry you. The prerequisite is that you let Senior Li want me."

Shen Hongyi: "..."

Absolutely shameless.

On Li Jiankun's side, nothing happened. He knew that the crew would have a show later, so he wanted to see if things really changed after dinner before leaving.

at dusk.

The restaurant delivers food.

Li Lianjie and a group of "little monks" lined up to get their meals. As a hero, he was first in line.However, his expression was very nervous. Naturally, he didn't know what Li Jiankun was doing behind his back, and he didn't know whether that person meant what he said.

"It might not be that fast. It might take a few days to change."

He turned around and said to his expectant little brothers.

"You take it first."

"Take a look."

After Li Lianjie took the lunch box, everyone behind him stood on tiptoe and stretched their necks.

"Quickly, open it and take a look."

click!

The lid is lifted.

The first thing that catches the eye is a huge piece of meat, covering the middle of the rice. The rice next to it is moistened to the color of soy sauce, and it has obviously been poured with soup.There is also a dish of cabbage cooked with lard residue and an eggplant braised in oil.

"Ha~"

"Changed, changed!"

"Wow! It's so rich!"

"Oh, there's meat to eat!"

Not only the young monks, but also mainland actors came over one after another after hearing the news. After seeing it, they were all overjoyed.

Li Lianjie covered the lunch box and did not eat directly. He swallowed hard and looked around.He really found the target.

Then he held the lunch box and ran over with uncontrollable excitement.

"Thank you!"

He bowed deeply to Li Jiankun, stood up, and emphasized: "I don't just mean meat."

Li Jiankun was a head taller than him. He stretched out his hand to rub his bald head and said with a smile, "I understand."

How could it be meat that can make people feel so wronged that they bring tears to their eyes?

Li Lianjie grinned and said: "You are a Hong Kong businessman, right? Our movies will also be broadcast in Hong Kong. If I can become famous, I will promote your company for free!"

Well, there is such an unexpected gain, Li Jiankun really took note of it.

It will not be easy to invite this person in the future.

Li Jiankun blinked and said, "Actually, I'm not."

"what?"

Li Jiankun waved his hand and did not explain.Seeing that the food had indeed improved, I didn't stay any longer. After saying hello to Chen Yongren, I strolled away in the afterglow of the setting sun, humming a little tune.
