Chapter 17
Chapter 17
Half a month after joining the crew, Qin Lang is familiar with most of the crew and gets along very well. When he is not filming, he will take the initiative to help people with work.
The staff of the crew have seen too many actors, even if they are young actors in the [-]th line, as long as they are young, they always think that they will become big stars in the future, and most of them will keep a distance from ordinary staff. A newcomer with a good personality like Qin Lang is rare.
It was also the first time for Qin Lang to join such a big crew, probably because the investment was not short of money, he soon realized that the crew was a bit extravagant.
The food is good and there are many snacks. The props are often replaced with new ones after being used once, and they go to restaurants for dinner every three days.
He lost his parents at the age of 15 and had to raise two younger brothers, so he developed the habit of saving money. Although his two younger brothers became rich and famous on the list after time travelling, he still can't see waste. The crew originally wanted to throw it away as garbage He sorted out all the props, and let the waste collectors come to collect them.
Although the money exchanged was handed over to Cheng Yuan to treat everyone to a drink, but in the eyes of others, this newcomer should come from a poor background.
This is true 18 years ago.
After filming the night scene that day, Lin Zixin clapped his hands and said, "We have worked hard since we started work at seven o'clock today. I invite everyone to eat supper. Tomorrow is a good time to rest. After eating, go back and have a good sleep."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Tong smiled and said, "I don't think the director will spend any money today. Xiao Qin hasn't invited everyone to dinner for so long, right? How about Xiao Qin for dinner tonight?" ?”
Qin Lang's salary for this movie is only [-] yuan, even if Qiu Yue gave a relatively loose contract of [-] to [-] yuan, it is only [-] yuan in his hands, and he has to pay his own part of the five insurances and one housing fund. It's not too much, not to mention that after signing the contract, you can only get half of the salary, and the remaining half has to wait until the end of the filming.
The younger brothers are rich, but he is the eldest brother, how dare he let his younger brother take care of him, so he has been using the salary he earned these days.Including the 2000 yuan from the male No. [-] last time, the balance in his work card is less than [-] yuan.
But saving comes down to saving. He himself is a straightforward person. Thinking that he has never invited anyone to dinner after joining the group for so long, he smiled and readily agreed: "Okay, I will treat you tonight."
There are big stars in the crew, so naturally they can't go to the roadside stalls, so they finally chose a restaurant frequented by stars near the film and television city.
When entering, Qin Lang forgot to inquire about the price in advance.
It's okay, although it's expensive, but it's still within the range allowed by his economic situation.
There were more than 20 staff present at this night show, and they requested two boxes.The director and actors sit in one room with several of their assistants, and the rest of the staff sit in one room.
Sun Tong's personal assistant was Wu Ming, a young man who knew how to get things done, and he was busy ordering food and drinks to create an atmosphere from the beginning to the end.
The whole room was full of men, having fun with a few glasses of wine, and the excitement soon became lively. Director Lin Da even pulled everyone up and talked about it. Only Song Mo, as his name suggests, kept sipping his wine and rarely joined the conversation on the table, only occasionally being called When Cue arrives, he will respond politely.
He doesn't like this kind of occasion, but he has to give the director and others face.
While others were chatting and laughing enthusiastically, his eyes fell on a few wine bottles on the table.
I thought that someone might be unlucky tonight.
When Sun Tong asked Qin Lang to treat him, he knew that there might be something wrong with the supper. The wine was ordered by Sun Tong's assistant, and it was not a common brand. People who don't know wine can't tell the price.According to his estimation, the sum of several bottles will not be less than five figures.
Thinking, he glanced at the smiling young man listening to the director.
Obviously, the young man didn't know that he was about to face an expensive bill.
He didn't know how Qin Lang's family was, but seeing his habit of collecting discarded props from the crew and selling them off, I'm afraid he wasn't a child from a wealthy family.
For some reason, he instinctively wanted to keep a distance from this young man, but for some reason he felt a little annoyed at the thought of him getting into trouble.
So much so that the whole process was a little absent-minded.
It's finally over.
Lin Zixin, who was already slightly drunk, waved his hands and said, "No need, let's pay the bill!"
The waiter took the bill: "Are the two boxes together?"
Lin Zixin nodded: "Yes."
The waiter picked up the wireless ordering machine in his hand, called up the bill, and said, "The total is 680."
Lin Zixin thought he heard it wrong; "How much?"
Waiter; "Thirty-five thousand 680."
Lin Zixin: "Why is it so expensive?"
Waiter: "There are more than 3 drinks."
Lin Zixin glanced at the wine bottle on the table, then turned to look at Qin Lang: "Xiao Qin, do you have any questions?"
Qin Lang smiled and said, "It's all right."
At first, when Sun Tong asked him to treat him, he thought it was a matter of course, but when the other party's assistant ordered food and wine, he felt something was wrong.I'm afraid that last time I grabbed the show and made the other party dissatisfied, tonight I deliberately want to give myself a blow.
Although he knew that tonight's supper must be expensive, when the waiter revealed the price, it almost made his eyes go dark.
Thirty-five thousand 680.
In the past, it would be enough for him, his two younger brothers, and the kid next door to feed him for a year or two.
Fortunately, because he was mentally prepared, the pain in his flesh was only shown in his heart, and he was still smiling on the surface.
Because he knew very well that as long as he showed that he could not afford it, Sun Tong would grab the order. This money was a huge sum of money to him, but it was just a drop in the bucket for a celebrity.Use a drop in the bucket to let yourself owe him a favor, and then take care of yourself in the next month as a matter of course.
So, vomiting blood in his heart, he calmly took out the card given by his brother and handed it to the waiter: "Swipe the card!"
Hey, I didn't expect to find a job, and I still have to be a brother-in-law.
Sun Tong, who originally wanted to see him make a fool of himself, gave the assistant next to him a calm look.
Wu Ming rubbed his nose guilty. He had specifically asked Cheng Yuan about Qin Lang's background. He said that his family background was not good, and he entered this business to support his family. He had also observed him in the past few days, and he never wasted food, let alone discarded it. Even if someone throws away a drink bottle, they will collect it and give it to Auntie Cleaning of the crew to sell the waste.
It is impossible for a child from a rich family to have this habit, he suspected that Qin Lang was slapping his face to look fat.
In fact, Sun Tong thought so too.He smiled and pretended to say casually: "Let Xiao Qin spend money tonight. By the way, what do Xiao Qin's parents do?"
Song Mo, who was wiping his fingers with a tissue, raised his eyelids when he heard this, and glanced at the young Piaopiao who was diagonally opposite.
Only Qin Lang said frankly: "My parents have not been here for many years."
Song Mo paused slightly.
Sun Tong sighed softly: "I'm sorry, then I'll pay for the supper tonight."
Qin Lang hurriedly waved his hands: "No, no, I told you that I'm going to treat you, so I can't let Tongge pay for it." Then he added, "Although I'm a newcomer, our company's treatment is not bad."
Lin Zixin, an old fox beside him, has brought the crew to this restaurant twice, and he knows the price very well, so when the waiter revealed the bill figure just now, he immediately understood what was going on in his heart.But as a director, he can only pretend to be confused.He also doesn't know about Qin Lang's financial situation, but seeing whether the young man is humble or overbearing in front of his seniors, even if he slaps his face to look fat, it's better than being easily grasped by the other party.
He didn't want Mr. Sun Tong to hold him back, so he patted Qin Lang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Xiao Qin, do a good job. Your boss is Qiu Yue. Sooner or later, he will be popular."
Qin Lang smiled and said, "Then accept the director's auspicious words."
After coming out of the restaurant, Qin Lang said goodbye to the people, and came to the side of the road to wait for the bus alone. He opened the text messages on his mobile phone, checked the consumption text message notifications for tonight, and saw the number of more than 3, even though the balance still had more than 90 million, A small heart is still aching.
Thinking of this, he clicked on the taxi-hailing app again, canceled the order just now, and walked towards the bus stop not far away.
Now that his younger brother has already grown into a talent, he definitely doesn't need to be so stingy, but in the past eight years, he has earned money to support his family and his younger brother, and he is used to saving money, so it is really difficult to change it for a while.
It was dark, and he was the only one on the platform.
When the bus didn't come, a black SUV stopped in front of him.The window of the co-pilot was slowly lowered, revealing a familiar face, it was Song Yingdi's assistant An He, he said with a smile: "Xiao Qin, get in the car, we will give you a ride."
Qin Lang was slightly taken aback, because the window in the back seat was closed, and he couldn't see Song Yingdi inside, he hesitated for a while, and said: "No need, there is a direct bus."
An He said: "Oh, it's so late, you should hurry up." As he spoke, he regained his senses and stretched out his hand to open the rear door with a click.
Now that the matter has come to this point, it would be a bit hypocritical for Qin Lang to refuse, he raised his eyebrows and smiled, opened the door and got in the car.
The rear seat of a high-end car is very spacious, and Song Mo sat on the left, with a seat between them, as if separated by a river.When he came up, the other party was still looking at the phone with his head down, without even giving him a look.
Qin Lang said: "Teacher Song is troublesome!"
Song Mo didn't raise his head, but said in a low voice, "It's not in the way."
An He said in front: "Xiao Qin, where do you live?"
Qin Lang: "Prosperous Huating."
"Ah?" An He was taken aback for a moment, thinking that he had heard wrongly, Shengshi Huating is the top villa complex in the city.
Qin Lang cleared his throat: "The Zhongkai Jiayuan next to it."
An He nodded: "That's not far."
Qin Lang saw Song Yingdi, who was separated by a river from him, and tried to find a topic: "In two days, it will be the first scene with Teacher Song, so I am looking forward to it."
Song Mo still stared at the phone without looking up, and gave a faint "hmm".
Well, sure this is a humanoid iceberg, or don't make fun of yourself.Thinking of this, Qin Lang simply leaned against the car window, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
Song Mo, who lowered his head, didn't wait for the next voice for a long time, turned his head slowly, and glanced at the young man on the right, only to see him leaning against the window with his eyes closed.
He twitched the corners of his mouth.
It's quite comfortable.
Originally, he didn't intend to meddle in other people's business, he didn't want to get too close to this person, but seeing the other person being bullied, he couldn't bear it for some reason.
He is very clear that he is a hard-hearted actor, and a good actor must have a strong ability to empathize, but no one knows that he, a talented actor known by the public, actually has a hard time empathizing with others. He just seems to have mastered the art of acting by nature. door technology.
He considered himself an absolute rationalist, so this inexplicable compassion made him a little uncomfortable.
Qin Lang originally just pretended to take a nap, to resolve the embarrassment, he didn't want to drink a few glasses of wine before, but now his stamina picked up, the drowsiness quickly swept him away, and he really fell asleep before he knew it.
It was awakened by An He's "Xiao Qin" a few times.
"Ah? Are you here?"
An He said: "Well, it's here."
"Thank you." Qin Lang rubbed his face, and after he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something, and turned to Song Yingdi on the other side, "Thank you, Teacher Song, you should rest early."
Song Mo still looked indifferent, nodded and hummed, but when Qin Lang opened the door and got out of the car, he said abruptly: "Be careful with Sun Tong."
Before anyone could react, Song Mo had already ordered the driver to drive.
Qin Lang watched the car go away from Juechen, and realizing that Song Yingdi was reminding himself, he couldn't help but bend the corner of his mouth.
Is this the legendary cold face and warm heart?
