Entertainment begins with Charlotte's troubles

"If you don't, don't participate. I'll give you a pass this time, and you'll be able to get a certificate of completion tomorrow." In the car, Tong Dawei left Lin Xun alone.

"Teacher, isn't this bad?"

"It's nothing bad, you go around and gather here when you arrive."

With Lin Xun's popularity, he didn't even need to find the crew, he stood in front of the car and shouted, and a lot of crews were willing to recruit him as an extra.

This test is meaningless to him.

Just like that, Lin Xun was wearing a peaked cap and carrying a shoulder bag, wandering around the largest film and television city in China, taking a few photos from time to time.

In the film and television city, filming crews can be seen everywhere, and young faces are wearing ancient costumes or Republic of China costumes, wandering among the major crews.

There are more than 40 registrations for group performances in Hengdian. Some of them are [-] or [-] years old, some are [-] or [-] years old, some are college students, some are art students, some are farmers, and some are migrant workers.

But in the final analysis, they are divided into two types of people, one has dreams and aspires to become the second Wang Baoqiang and the second Zhao Liying.

One is without dreams, 80 yuan a day, eating and dying.

Don't look at the number of hundred and eighty, there are many people and competition is great, filming is not done every day, it is not bad if you can shoot for ten and a half days a month.

[51.Chapter 51: Being a group performer]

This is the first time I have come to Hengdian in this life, and it feels amazing. Although I have been here many times in my previous life, the identities and experiences of the two times are different.

Lin Xunyou walked the streets and alleys, checking in many places he had walked.

The proprietress of the youth hostel still has a charming charm, and the Qingming Shanghetu area is still the most lively place where countless group performers hang out after get off work.

90.00% of the group performers in Hengdian are single, and there is no shortage of handsome men and beautiful women here. Weekly romances and January romances are everywhere.

Some girls are newcomers, and their dream is to survive. At the beginning, they clean up their bodies and work hard on filming every day. After a long time, their original aspirations fade away.

Sometimes you have worked hard for half a year, why not have a meal with the group leader and a drink with the assistant director.

As long as they are willing to pay, girls are very popular in Hengdian. Many production crews will involve sex scenes. It is inevitable that the male and female leading actors will have physical contact. Sometimes female stars are unwilling, so they will find substitutes.

Depending on the length of body parts shown by the stand-in, or the location touched by the actor during filming, the price is also different.

But it is generally at least 800 yuan or more, and a scene with a good figure and good looks can get two to three thousand.

Some girls specialize in this kind of "stand-in", and when they are busy, they can run seven or eight crews a day, earning more than [-] yuan a day.

"Yingbao, I love you!"

"Wow, Zhao Liying is so good-looking too, it's exactly the same as on TV."

"Is this filming? It looks so silly."

"The brother in front is blocking me."

"Brothers in the back, stand against me."

"I like Yixing, don't compete with me."

"One thing to say, Cheng Weiting's appearance is really hard, and this Republic of China military uniform is very handsome."

Lin Xun wandered around, and for some reason came to the outskirts of a film studio, surrounded by crowds of people, very lively, stepping on his feet, it turned out to be the crew of the Old Nine Gates.

There are several major traffic in the country.

Cheng Weiting, who has just traveled to the mainland and became famous with his ancient sword tales, Zhao Liying, the heroine of the popular Hua Qiangu, and Xiao Zhang, the fourth son who returned to China.

"Old Zhang, there are too few people in this scene." In front of the monitor, the director frowned as he looked at the scene just shot, "It doesn't show the grandeur of the Buddha at all."

"Those who know know his warlord, those who don't know think he is a gangster."

The assistant director showed a bitter smile: "But the budget, shoot a few more scenes, and let the group performers run back and forth, the effect is the same."

The director said to the few people sitting under the parasol: "I'm afraid that the group performers are willing, but the lead actor is not willing, so let's recruit group performers, and find another 1.7, only male, eighteen to forty, above [-] meters, no fat."

"Guide Lu, it's already this time. Even if we can find extras, when they come over to make up and change clothes, the filming will start in the afternoon, right?"

Standing up and taking a look at the onlookers outside, the director said: "Isn't this just a group performance outside, let's say the salary is one hundred and two, and two meals are taken care of."

Most of the onlookers are fans of the leading actors in this drama. Now as a group performer, you have the opportunity to get close to the idols. Don't talk about paying money, even if you don't pay money, there are a lot of people who are willing to come.

The only downside is that these people are not professional, and they need to be trained for a few minutes before shooting, telling them some precautions.

Holding a loudspeaker, the assistant director ran to the crowd and shouted: "The Old Nine Gates crew is recruiting extra performers, the salary is [-] yuan, and there are two lunch boxes. Those who are willing to sign up."

"I, I, I, I do."

"Director, choose me, I don't want money."

Like a smelly shark, a group of people flocked to the assistant director. Lin Xun was also pushed away, and his mobile phone was almost squeezed out. He was confused. He didn't know who was pulling him to the side, and he followed.

After arriving at the place, I was dumbfounded. In front of the big container, hundreds of extra performers gathered here. The assistant director gave a lecture, telling them that they would be watched randomly during filming, don't run around, don't talk.

Only then did he realize that he had been selected, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

But I've come here, I'm still idle, it's okay to be a group performer.

The container was opened, and inside was a truckload of soldier uniforms. The clothes, pants, shoes and hats were all mixed together, and there was a strong sour smell in it.

Several staff members dragged the clothes to the ground with rakes commonly used in rural areas, and the assistant director shouted: "Choose the clothes yourself. I'll give you 15 minutes. You must wear them all."

Before the words finished, Lin Xun was already choosing clothes.

In his previous life, he did a lot of group performances, and he knew that these clothes had only been washed once in a long time.

The previous owner of the clothes and shoes was a clean white girl who loves cleanliness. Fortunately, when you meet a big man with body odor and uncle athlete's foot, you have no place to cry.

Because of his quick moves, Lin Xun got a fairly clean set of clothes. The group performers didn't have a dressing room, so they just put the clothes on their bodies.

He is fine, others are miserable.

"Ugh, have these clothes been soaked in a septic tank? It stinks."

"Two days ago I caught a cold and my nose was stuffy, now I'm all fine, director, I thank you eight generations of ancestors."

"Fuck, this is so blessed and smelly, labor and management won't shoot it."

One hundred group performers, two-thirds of them ran in less than 5 minutes, the assistant director continued to recruit, came and ran, ran and came again, an hour passed, and the crowd was still not full.

Fortunately, the assistant director was prepared and knew that some people would not be able to stand it, so he shook people in the group leader group at the beginning. Near noon, a group of professional group performers arrived.

Hundreds of people gathered together, and the director took the walkie-talkie and said, "Attention all departments, let's start...eating."
