Rebirth of Hong Kong’s Glorious Era - Chapter 78
Li Wansui finished filming the afternoon scenes, took off his makeup, and returned to Taikoo Shing. In the past few days, he was very tired. He drank with Xu Shaoqiang until 2 o’clock last night. He got up early in the morning, and now he is very sleepy. He went back to eat something at random and went to bed. .
At this time, there was chaos on the set of “Celestial Silkworm Transformation”.
The younger brother of the deputy producer, McDangxiong, McDangjie, was reporting to the anxious Xiao Sheng and McDangxiong.
“Brother Xiao, elder brother, Xu Shaoqiang, this poor boy, has disappeared. I searched all over Xiangjiang, but I couldn’t find him!” McDangjie’s tone was very frightened, and he made a mistake in the important task explained by the company.
As soon as McDonnell heard this, he slapped McDonnell on the back of the head with a slap and said, “Rice Bucket, I sent you to monitor Xu Shaoqiang 24 hours a day, how can you find no one. You can’t do anything like this!”
McDangjie was slapped by his brother, and his face was not very good. He felt that he did his best, but the main reason was that Xu Shaoqiang avoided himself, and said back: “Brother, Xu Shaoqiang, this street slapper, has the heart to avoid me, and I can’t. They are really inseparable 24 hours a day, and they have to go to their respective homes to sleep at night. Besides, this kid is afraid of being recognized, so he has to wear a mask on weekdays.”
McDonnell was originally angry because Xu Shaoqiang didn’t see him, and when he heard McDonnell talk back, he immediately kicked McDonnell’s **** again, and said in his mouth: “He’s gone, you’re going to be the starring role? You can handle such trivial matters. not good.”
McDangxiong was always ruthless and ruthless when he was filming. He was rumored to have a gangland background, he was tough, and he kicked McDangjie staggeringly regardless of whether McDangjie was his own younger brother or not.
Xiao Sheng’s face was ashen, he felt that it was time for him, these two brothers are still acting here for him to see! He knew what McDonnell was thinking. This man was rough at the outside and inside, and he was afraid that he would blame his younger brother, so he took the lead in punishing his younger brother and gag his mouth.
If he can protect his younger brother with his status as Madam Xiong in Li, but “Celestial Silkworm Transformation” is the company’s hope, and it is the best weapon to break the wireless inertial ratings, there is no room for mistakes, the company The task of monitoring Xu Shaoqiang was handed over to McDangjie, but McDangjie lost the person. Of course, it was Xu Shaoqiang’s character problem, but McDangjie was also guilty.
Xiao Sheng ignored McDangxiong’s calculations, he really didn’t have the heart to deal with these crap, and said, “Ajie, you dragon and tiger martial artists, go to Lan Kwai Fong Street to find them, Xu Shaoqiang often drinks there at night, Don’t come back to see me soon!”
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for him to hurry up.
When McDangjie was far away, McDangxiong said to Xiao Sheng: “Uncle, what should I do, it’s almost 7 o’clock, Xu Shaoqiang, the street boy, hasn’t been seen yet, the key is that it’s not like before, there’s no news at all! “
Xiao Sheng has been in the Hong Kong film and television industry for decades. In addition to his old age, he was born in 1927, and everyone called him “Uncle”.
Although this has happened in the past, the crew can still know where Xu Shaoqiang is and when he will come. Today, there is no news.
Xiao Sheng, who is usually elegant, also made a foul language at this time: “Fuck, how do I know what to do, our “Celestial Silkworm Transformation” will not be archived after the broadcast tonight, the next episode without Xu Shaoqiang’s scenes are all finished, and now Waiting for this bad boy to come over before we can start filming!”
McDangxiong had no idea after hearing this, and sneered fiercely: “I thought this kid’s movie was finished a few days ago, and we could stop for a while, but I would have disappeared today! ,Oh shit!”
The two were gloomy and gloomy, but they had to do the work they needed to do, and comforting the rest of the crew was also a top priority.
These days, because Xu Shaoqiang is often missing, the filming progress is slow, and other crew members who are also dragged down are often busy in the morning, and they are busy until eleven or twelve in the evening, and they are exhausted.
It’s 7 o’clock today, and there is still no trace of Xu Shaoqiang. If Xu Shaoqiang was there, the filming would have been finished long ago. How could it be like this, everyone is tied to the crew and can’t go anywhere. Some have a hot temper and have already started to scold.
“I’m hitting your lungs, where did Xu Shaoqiang run all over the street?”
“Yeah, every day he delays filming, making everyone have to work overtime, what kind of person!”
“Uncle, you have to discipline him well, he is at ease outside, but we are suffering here.” The courageous one had already begun to complain to Xiao Sheng.
Xiao Sheng was helpless, because of one Xu Shaoqiang, the hearts of the crew began to be chaotic. As a producer and director, he had to appease everyone, or else this “Celestial Silkworm Transformation” would not be able to be filmed.
Xiao Sheng stepped forward and shouted loudly, “Everyone is quiet, I have something to announce.”
The noisy crew members had long hoped that Xiao Sheng would speak up. After all, people are not iron-clad. No one could bear it every day.
The scene was silent, Xiao Sheng said like everyone: “I know that everyone is working hard and feels uncomfortable, but if you have difficulties, you must overcome them. Xu Shaoqiang’s crew will negotiate with him and let him film honestly. Everyone these days It’s hard work, I will make a suggestion with the company tomorrow, and let the company give you a red envelope as a reward for your hard work. After the end of “Celestial Silkworm Transformation”, I may promise, like the company to apply for a paid vacation, so that everyone can have a good time Playing for a while. But the most important thing in this period of time is to earnestly finish the filming of “Celestial Silkworm Transformation”. Now that this drama is so popular, it is the best time for us to defeat the wireless!”
The crew was reluctantly calmed down by the red envelopes and holidays offered by Xiao Sheng and restored order. The exhausted Xiao Sheng and McDonnell gathered together, Xiao Sheng said: “This time, no matter what, let Xu Shaoqiang concentrate on finishing the filming, otherwise people will be really confused, everyone waits for Xu Shaoqiang every day, The morale is going to wear out, how can you film the scenes that follow?”
McDonald’s said: “Yes, the quality of “The Legend of Chu Liuxiang” filmed by TVB is not bad, and the ratings can be stabilized at less than 40%. Seriously filming “Celestial Silkworm Transformation”, it is able to stabilize one end of the wireless, if it is like the current state, if you are impatient, you will inevitably be careless and lose your way.”
Xiao Sheng also sighed a little, saying: “If it’s okay to work overtime normally, everyone can adapt to it, but in this situation, everyone has grievances in their hearts, and they must be appeased. I will like the company’s petition tomorrow, and give it a big red envelope. , I think everyone’s grievances will dissipate at that time, they are all supporting their families, and no one will be angry with money. The most important thing is to stabilize Xu Shaoqiang, stabilize him, no matter what the “Legend of Chu Liuxiang” is, it will not be there. Next.”
When people encounter difficulties, they will think in a good direction. How do they know that Li Wansui played with them to draw wages from the bottom of the bucket, and Xu Shaoqiang went to Thailand.
The time was waiting for the crew of “Celestial Silkworm Transformation”. A little bit passed, and seeing that the time was approaching 9:30, the crew members had already exhausted their patience, and started to make noise again.
McDonnell suggested: “Uncle, why don’t you let people rest first~www.mtlnovel.com~ We will try our best to find someone tonight, dig three feet into the ground, and find this dead man.” After that, McDonald’s expression was a little grim, obviously hating Xu Shaoqiang.
Xiao Sheng nodded frowningly, and said to McDonald’s: “You and I are taking a few old employees out to look for it. I can’t find Xu Shaoqiang, and I can’t even sleep well.”
After McDonnell responded, Xiao Sheng got up and said loudly, “Let’s finish work tonight, everyone has worked hard, and we will shoot normally tomorrow!”
The crew members cheered, this kind of endless waiting is really annoying.
Xiao Sheng and McDonald took a few employees and started searching all night.
Until two o’clock in the middle of the night, a few people met at the agreed point, all of them looked downcast, MacDonald opened the mouth and said, “Is this the world evaporated?”
Xiao Sheng felt depressed. He was already old and exhausted. It was not a solution to continue looking for it. He said, “Okay, everyone has worked hard tonight. Let’s go back to rest first, and we have to start work tomorrow.”
After a few old employees dispersed, Xiao Sheng said to McDangxiong: “Axiong, go back first. It’s not a solution to search blindly like a headless fly. Maybe there will be good news when you wake up tomorrow morning.”
“Uncle, do you think that Xu Shaoqiang will have any accident, such as being hit by a car?” McDonald’s has begun to think about these aspects.
Xiao Sheng shook his head and said: “Xu Shaoqiang is so famous now, it’s really going to be an accident. Even if we didn’t receive the news, those media colleagues should have received the news. I think it is 80% that Xu Shaoqiang is fooling around on the belly of a woman.”
After a pause, he said again: “Axiong, go back and rest, no matter how much you think about it, it won’t help. We have to start work tomorrow.”
“Okay, uncle, be careful on the road.”
“Um.”
