Shenhao UP Lord

Chapter 255 Kneel and Lick Everywhere
"Boss, I heard that Hengdian is no longer viable, and many production crews have already moved to Xiangshan." Seeing Ding Xu's unsatisfied expression, Gou Tuanzi said, "How about we go and see?"

"That's right, the boss finally came here, let's play for a few more days." Sakura hurriedly said: "I also heard that there are more crews in Xiangshan."

"Xiangshan?" Ding Xu thought about it. In all fairness, the subject matter this time was good. It would be a pity if it was done in two days. Group acting is not only a special profession, but also appear in the entertainment circle and even the capital circle through their projection.

1000家影视公司、600多家艺人工作室注册在这里，从96年谢晋导演的《鸦片战争》开始30年来近2000部影视剧在这里拍摄。

Here is like a mirror, whenever it changes, it reflects the thousands of fluctuations in the industry.

"Brother Xu knows that you haven't seen enough, right?"

"It doesn't matter, I will definitely satisfy you this time!"

The next day everyone set out, instead of going to the crew, they went to the streets of Hengdian. Ding Xu walked in front of the camera and said: "A big crew has hundreds or thousands of people, and it takes several months to shoot. Not only the film and television base, but also the surrounding areas benefit." The provision of supporting services such as services, chemicals, roads, and professional leasing, as well as the rise of industrial chains such as tourism, catering, and accommodation.”

"Brother Xu is now walking on the pedestrian street in the center, see if it's busy next to it?"

"Do Starbucks, Yidian, KFC, and imported supermarkets have everything you need?"

"Is it hard to imagine that it was a barren and muddy country road 30 or [-] years ago?"

"I heard that Luhan had just finished filming "Fighter of the Destiny", and countless fans came to check in with the same food and accommodation."

"Because he was filming in Hengdian all day long, is Zeng Zhiwei simply investing in two hotels?"

"The popular "Military Division" was filmed in Hengdian for almost a year, and "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" was stationed for nine months..."

"See that complex in the distance?"

"It is rumored that all of them were bought by celebrities!"

Ding Xu is also letting himself go, all kinds of gossips are flying all over the sky, which star has never come to Hengdian to film a movie?

When he came to Shanghetu Street during the Qingming Festival and looked at the forty or fifty so-called film and television studios or companies on both sides, Ding Xu sighed: "Brother Xu heard that the most popular time is to finish shooting during the day and shoot at night, and night scenes are shot all night long. , I was so dizzy filming, one after another without stopping."

"In the past, there were more foreplays and fewer actors. It is said that when filming "Xin Huan Zhu Ge Ge", there were no extras?"

"There are at least a few hundred palace ladies. At the beginning, they said they wanted beautiful ones, but later on, let alone beautiful ones, there aren't even enough people!"

“A 50- to [-]-year-old aunt can even put on makeup!”

"In the past two years, the capital has been cold, and our audience's aesthetics has gradually improved in the indiscriminate bombardment. As long as any big shit IP is not good-looking, it will be a hit on the street, right?"

"Nowadays, TV dramas with more than [-] episodes are considered to be large-scale productions, and most of them are from Internet companies. The group shooting can be completed in a few days, and there is no need to hire extras, or very few extras."

"You also heard the old demon's interview yesterday, right?"

"Just go to the pedestrian street and see why there are so many martial arts avatars doing live broadcasts?"

"I can't help it. If there is no filming, are you waiting to starve to death?"

Ding Xu came to the door of a closed film and television studio, pointed to the mess in the empty building, and said, "Brother Xu will settle the accounts for you."

"If a company in Hengdian does not carry out one project in three years, the rent for water and electricity is 10 yuan a year, and the entertainment expenses are 50 to 70 yuan a year, the hard cost in three years can easily be 400 million, believe it or not?"

"Who can bear it?"

"Forget about people's big capital, we can't worry about it. After all, doing business has both losses and profits." Ding Xu drank his saliva and continued: "The topic still comes back to group performances."

"Brother Xu was deeply impressed by a sentence that the old demon told me yesterday, that is, the ubiquitous contempt and sense of separation."

"Even if they are on the same crew or even in the same scene, you will find that the actors will not have any communication with the extras at all."

"This kind of estrangement does not only appear in the relationship between the leading actor and the group performers, but the boundaries between the group performers are still very clear. We all know that there are relatively few special actors, and they have separate arrangements. The foreground actors and ordinary group performers are divided into different Rest area, led by different leaders."

"Even the clothes you receive come from different warehouses, do you believe it?"

"Of course the foreground is much more glamorous, but for ordinary group performers, a well-fitting and clean clothing has become a luxury?"

"Because their costumes are generally fat and bulky, sometimes they even need to be nailed to prevent them from falling off."

"It seems that there is an invisible barrier that allows them to prioritize even chatting with their own kind. Not to mention the level of dedication of the team leader, there is even a detailed storyboard script in the notification group of the foreground, while the group performers are completely blind .”

"Whether the hair combing teacher uses his heart or not depends entirely on his conscience, and some even use verbal PUA, all kinds of complaints about your face being fat like a cake... Is it because you didn't wash your face in the morning... The best cosmetics are useless..."

"Not to mention the director, the extras are their punching bags. They can only sigh helplessly when the lead actors make mistakes. When they meet big names, they have to keep their smiling faces and flatter them, isn't it?"

"But if the group performers don't control their expressions, they will be scolded by the director and punished by the guarding team leader!"

"Brother Xu, why do you think it's scarier than PUA in the workplace?"

"Even many documentaries like to find people who have been with a large group?"

Ding Xu walked to the gate of the actor's guild and looked at the long line of people waiting to apply for a certificate. Many of them were fledgling young people with dreams in mind.

"Of course, compared to the vague regulations of other film and television bases, Hengdian has detailed regulations on salary payment and personal safety. The team leader even repeatedly emphasized that as long as the male extras are rude to the female extras, the male extras will be expelled. Punishment, the specific consequence is being kicked out of the group chat."

"Have you noticed? The team leader is equivalent to the team leader in the company. He assigns tasks, supervises implementation, and also needs to handle emergency or unexpected situations."

"They are the only leaders that group performers can face directly, and the job opportunities for group performers are completely in their hands."

"So when employees want to climb up, will how to please their bosses become a problem they have to face?"
