Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

Chapter 474: Feast of a wealthy family (3)

The first one, to be more precise, is the first couple. The guests who came to the guest building were Li Lianjie and his new wife Huang Qiuyan.

Li Lianjie and his wife came by taxi.

on the way.

Li Lianjie had been discussing with Huang Qiuyan enthusiastically, how to thank Xu Cun for his kindness in helping him? How to take this opportunity to join Xu Cun? How to borrow the movie Chinese Hero directed and acted by Xu Cun in theaters?

Although the taxi driver never intervened in Li Lianjie and his wife's discussion, he was really suspicious that Li Lianjie and his wife, who were dressed like two country bumpkins, knew Xu Cun, the richest man in Xiangjiang!

Until the taxi envoy went to the private road of Shi'ao Manor and was stopped by ten bodyguards headed by Li Yuejin...

Li Yuejin knocked on the car window very politely, and asked, Hello, this is a private road, what can I do for you?

The taxi driver glanced at Li Lianjie and Huang Qiuyan who were sitting behind, and motioned for them to answer.

Li Lianjie said: We are here to congratulate Mr. Xu on his housewarming.

Li Yuejin asked politely, Do you have any invitations for the three of you?

Li Lianjie glanced at Huang Qiuyan and motioned for Huang Qiuyan to take out the invitation card Xu Cun sent them.

Huang Qiuyan took out a clean white handkerchief, and opened it carefully.

After opening it, a purple-gold invitation card was revealed. Then, Huang Qiuyan handed the purple-gold invitation card to Li Yuejin.

Li Yuejin took the invitation and inspected it, then returned the invitation to Huang Qiuyan, and said politely: The car goes up this road, counting the one at the gate of the manor, and there are two guard posts. After passing by, enter the manor Well, there are guide signs and guards in the manor, the three of you should be able to find the banquet building easily.

Escorted by the invitation, the taxi entered the Shek O Manor smoothly.

As soon as they entered the manor, together with the taxi driver, the three bumpkins were eye-opening—they finally knew how rich the No. 1 family in Xiangjiang was!

When the taxi slowly stopped in front of the guest building, Li Lianjie suddenly didn't want to get out of the car - Li Lianjie found that in this manor, even the attendants and bodyguards were much better dressed than the couple, even if the couple wanted to attend The banquet was well prepared.

But it was already here, how could Li Lianjie and his wife not get out of the car?

After hesitating for a while, Li Lianjie and his wife still paid the fare, and got off the taxi cautiously.

Honestly--

Compared to this occasion, Li Lianjie and his wife dressed so poorly that they were out of tune with this environment, so that some people showed obvious contempt for Li Lianjie and his wife!

Li Lianjie has a very strong self-esteem!

The reason why he wanted to direct and act in Chinese Heroes was because his self-esteem was severely hurt when filming North and South Shaolin!

When filming Shaolin Temple, Li Lianjie and his staff were paid one yuan a day. When filming Shaolin Kid, Li Lianjie and the staff were dual-yuan a day-this was nothing to the Chinese actors and staff at the time, because everyone was the same.

But when it came time to shoot North and South Shaolin, the situation was different.

First of all, Li Lianjie was old at this time and knew the importance of money.

Secondly, in the crew of North and South Shaolin, the difference in treatment between mainlanders and Xiangjiang crews was so great that Li Lianjie not only felt psychologically unbalanced, but also felt that his self-esteem had been seriously insulted!

At that time, mainlanders such as Li Lianjie only earned 3 yuan a day, while Liu Jialiang and other Xiangjiang personnel earned 150,000 a month, and even the extras who played dead bodies on the set without even a single scene were paid 50 yuan a day! In addition, when Xiangjiang actors are filming, they can talk and laugh, play while filming, and almost get through. However, the requirements for Li Lianjie and other mainland personnel are higher than those of stunt personnel. Li Lianjie even had to punch and kick in front of the camera from morning till night. And just like that, Xiangjiang staff earn more than Li Lianjie, dozens or even hundreds of times more? How does this make Li Lianjie psychologically balanced?

Money is only one aspect, if it is only because of money, even if Li Lianjie is a little psychologically unbalanced, he will not feel that his self-esteem has been seriously insulted!

The food eaten by the staff on both sides is also different - the mainland staff eat a very simple lunch, but in order to cater to the requirements of the Xiangjiang staff, the Xiangjiang staff eats Cantonese food. In the eyes of the Xiangjiang staff, the lunch of the mainland staff is like pig food !

Shots of sunrise and sunset are the most difficult to shoot, because there are limited opportunities for the lens to capture them, one or two minutes is too late, and the light will not wait for anyone. In order to capture such moments, the staff must advance A few hours to start preparing. When filming North and South Shaolin, the director Liu Jialiang asked all the staff in the mainland to get up at 2:00 in the morning, arrive at the shooting location on time, and prepare for the shooting. As a result, the Mainland staff waited from 3:00 am to 10:00 am before Liu Jialiang appeared on the shooting scene. The first sentence he said was: Oh! The light is not right. Didn't we plan to shoot the sunrise? We can't do anything now, so let's end today's work!

Just because of the sunrise incident, Li Lianjie ran all the way to find the producer, and said to the producer: Maybe I don't know much about film work, because I have only made two films, because I am still young, So, can I ask you a very simple question? Suppose there is a sunrise shot on the filming schedule, and the crew gets ready at 3:00 am, but the director shows up at 10:00 am and says the light is wrong , do you think it's his fault or my fault? You see, I really don't know much about filmmaking and I'm still learning, so if you think it's my fault, it means I really don't Knowing this job, I promise I'll pack up and go home right away and never make a movie again.

Under Li Lianjie's tough attitude, Liu Jialiang had to apologize to all the staff in the mainland.

But it is precisely for this reason that people from the mainland are being teased by Xiangjiang people more frequently.

As a result, even though Li Lianjie suffered serious injuries during the filming of North and South Shaolin, as soon as the filming of North and South Shaolin ended, Li Lianjie began to prepare for Chinese Heroes - Li Lianjie wanted to use Chinese Heroes The movie regains his lost self-esteem.

Seeing the faces of those who showed contempt for the couple, Li Lianjie immediately thought of the ugly faces of Xiangjiang personnel in North and South Shaolin such as Liu Jialiang!

This made Li Lianjie really want to leave!

But at this moment, Li Lianjie's familiar yet unfamiliar voice came: Ajie, it's you, come up, come to me.
