My Abandoned Oil Town Became a New Frontline - Chapter 216
[216. Chapter 216 The fear brought by returning college students]
“I’ve already asked. Her next film is scheduled for April next year! There will be more than two months of free time during this period! There is absolutely no problem in giving her a little extra money.”
Li Li took a deep breath.
“Two months of free time? Do you want to start the machine immediately?”
Wang Xun was startled.
Although Li Li has been preparing for this drama for a long time, if she wants to finish filming it within two months, she must start shooting immediately.
“Anyway, our male protagonist has been agreed upon for a long time. As long as the female protagonist is in place, the crew can head to Binghu Village as a whole.”
Li Li nodded.
“But”
Wang Xun still had some hesitation on his face. Although Li Li was a producer and had a professional shooting team in her company, she always felt that this was a bit too rushed.
It wasn’t until a moment later that
Wang Xun spoke again,
“But what about the extras? There are many scenes in your play that require a large number of extras! Binghu Village is not a film and television city, and there are no ready-made extras.”
“You can find this. Mr. Zhong from Binghu Cultural Tourism helps!”
Li Li waved her hand, indicating that Wang Xun didn’t need to worry.
“Looking for Mr. Zhong?”
Wang Xun touched his chin.
Since signing the contract, they have been in contact with Zhong Ruofei and have become quite familiar with him.
“He knows a lot of people there, so we can ask him to help promote it locally! In addition, it is the winter vacation, and college students and people working outside are going home one after another. There are all kinds of people.”
Li Li added .
“If that’s the case, then you have to call Zhao Feifei’s agent quickly!”
After thinking for a moment, Wang Xun looked up at Li Li.
“Yeah!”
“Then I’ll notify the film crew and other relevant personnel, and then contact Mr. Zhong to see if he can reserve some ordinary rooms for us at the Binghu Hotel.”
After that,
Wang Xun was about to get up. But at this moment, Li Li suddenly thought of something and warned again,
“By the way, Director Wang, when you go to notify the film crew, you will hold a safety education meeting. You must explain it clearly to the film crew!
Go to Binghu Village Don’t deliberately damage the buildings over there when filming.
We really can’t afford to pay for it!”
“I know that!”
“That’s okay!”
The sun rises and sets, and three days pass in the blink of an eye.
Although the winter solstice has passed, this time is also the coldest time of the year.
But the weather is getting colder, but no one is absent from the vendor area in Binghu Village. The vendor owners set up their stalls on time as always.
“It’s not good! It’s not good!”
At this moment, a belated boss selling egg-filled pancakes said while starting to support the stall.
“Is it bad?”
Upon hearing this, the surrounding stall owners felt their hearts pounding.
Immediately, the boss selling pancakes next to him hurriedly asked,
“Old Wang, don’t scare me! Is there going to be another explosion in Binghu Village?”
Since the wedding, the bosses in the vendor area have finally calmed down, but ” “Seven days for the wedding” has become a psychological shadow for them.
Some bosses and relatives even said during a video call at night that when setting up stalls in other places, they were worried about not having customers, but when setting up stalls in Binghu Village, customers were worried about whether the boss would be overwhelmed and run away temporarily.
At one time, they also wanted to recruit people, but the vendor area was so big and the accommodation only had two colored steel rooms, so no one wanted to come!
The customer flow in Binghu Village these days is just right for the stall owners, and they can make a satisfactory income without feeling tired.
If possible, they naturally hope that this state of affairs can continue.
“Otherwise?”
The egg-filled pancake owner let out a long sigh.
“Why? It’s the Chinese New Year and there are so many customers?”
Confirming his worries, the faces of the vendors around him suddenly showed a bitter look.
“A crew is coming to Binghu Village to film! The female lead is the famous star Zhao Feifei, and the male lead is Ruan Yunyan.”
The cake-making boss revealed the news he had just learned.
“Huh? Filming? Another big star?”
The other vendors were stunned for a moment, and some even straightened up and finished their work.
“In addition to the male and female protagonists, there are also some supporting actors who are all familiar faces. So this time we have to be prepared for a protracted war.”
The cake-making boss subconsciously glanced at the location of the Binghu Rice Noodles and Oils Store.
Due to their high daily demand, three two-story prefabricated houses were added next to the original three flat-panel color steel houses, which are filled with spare inventory.
“A protracted war? No way. There was already a celebrity scene in Binghu Village last time! This time there will definitely not be as many celebrities as last time! It will only last for two or three days at most.”
After a long silence,
a vendor comforted himself.
“I thought so at first, but Mr. Zhong from Binghu Culture and Tourism posted an advertisement on the official account, saying that the crew needs a large number of extras! Those who want to act in costume dramas can consider it.” The
egg-filled cake owner said with a wry smile .
.
“Huh? Openly recruiting costumed extras?”
In an instant,
the area around the pie filling boss became quiet.
Until a while later, a Xiao Long Baozi owner began to take off his sleeves without saying a word.
“Old Zhao, what are you doing?”
The nearby stall owners were confused and asked immediately.
“What are you doing? I’m going to find Mr. Zhong! Tell him to quickly build another vendor area, otherwise I may really have to deal with it here.
Those college students who go home for the New Year are good at eating and making. They don’t dislike the main one and chase after them. The boss runs away! Sometimes he will send a message on WeChat to urge the boss to open for business,”
the Xiaolong Baozi owner said without looking back.
“College students who go home for the Chinese New Year make sense. Wait! I’ll go too!”
The next moment,
after hearing the Xiaolongbaozi boss’s words, the other boss also took off his apron.
“Well, I’ll go too!”
Time flies,
it’s four o’clock in the afternoon, Yiyuan,
Xu Xing just finished answering the phone.
The office supplies needed by the staff of the Binghu District Industrial and Commercial Branch and the Taxation Branch will be delivered to Binghu Village this afternoon.
This time, the two branches each rented 18 offices on the second floor of the east row office building,
which happened to be all occupied on this floor!
The annual price of each room is 5,000, and the average monthly price is about more than 400.
Of course,
the two branches will not be able to use such rooms at first, so some of them will be used as dormitories for staff.
According to the plan, the two branches will officially start working on Monday next week!
At the same time, the registration places of Binghu Cultural Tourism, Binghu Construction Company, and Binghu Culture Media will also gradually change from Jiuge City to Binghu Economic Development Zone.
The most important thing is that after the registration place is changed, the relevant taxes will also be managed by the tax branch.
After the payment ratio is determined in accordance with relevant regulations, part of the tax will be treated as fiscal revenue of the Economic and Technological Development Zone and entered into the special account of the Economic and Technological Development Zone.
At that time, the Economic and Technological Development Zone Finance Branch will have to slowly put it on the agenda.
“Xiao Xu!”
After handling this matter, when Xu Xing was about to study the pawn system again, Zhong Ruofei’s voice suddenly came from outside the door.
“Brother Zhong, the door is unlocked!”
Seeing this, Xu Xing responded.
Soon, the door opened and Zhong Ruofei walked in.
“What’s wrong, Brother Zhong?”
“That’s it! Just now, many vendors heard that a crew was coming to film in Binghu Village. They were so devastated that they begged us to build another vendor area.”
Sitting in front of the tea table , Zhong Ruofei looked at Xu Xing.
“Please let us build another vendor area?”
Xu Xing was a little surprised.
The so-called colleagues are enemies, and business people wish they were the only ones around. As a result, the vendors here begged Binghu Village to build another vendor area!
This is really my first time listening to it.
“Yeah!”
“Although filming may attract some spectators, it’s not that big of a deal!”
Xu Xing couldn’t help but say.
“I also told them and they said that the crew wanted to recruit extra actors. They are probably college students who are going home for the New Year,”
Zhong Ruofei said.
“Are college students who go home for the New Year so scary? Young people have bigger appetites, but they are not so scared.”
Xu Xing raised his eyebrows.
“I guess some vendors were rushed by students,”
Zhong Ruofei said.
“Then”
“I thought that since they asked us to build a second vendor area of the same size opposite the existing vendor area. Anyway, it is now a color steel building, and it will not be affected in winter. It will be completed soon.”
I thought .
After thinking about it, Zhong Ruofei said.
“Can the electricity keep up?”
Xu Xing asked after a moment of silence.
“I can make do with electricity, but it should have reached the limit of four wind turbines.”
Zhong Ruofei nodded.
“Okay, you can arrange this!”
Xu Xing nodded when he heard that there was no problem with the electricity.
“Well!”
Just when Xu Xing was wondering why the stall owner was so afraid of the returning college students as extras,
many young people with clear eyes had gathered together in
Jiuge City ,
“Have you heard about it? Over there in Binghu Village A crew is coming to film and are recruiting extras!”
A girl looked at the others.
“That must be heard! And the starring roles are Zhao Feifei and Ruan Yunyan!”
Another girl immediately took over.
“Then do you plan to go?”
said the girl who spoke first.
“Go! You have to go! Ruan Yunyan is my male idol. Not to mention giving me extra money every day in his drama, I would be happy even if I had to give money to the crew.”
A girl was very determined. The nodded.
“That’s right! How could you not go for such a good opportunity? You don’t know, I posted this news in my roommate group, and two people from Shaanxi Province also wanted to come over and be extras.” The
clear girl who spoke first He nodded very seriously.
“When is the interview?”
“It’s said to be tomorrow afternoon!”
“Then let’s go there together?”
After a pause, someone suggested.
“Okay! My cousin has a car. Let’s collect some travel expenses and let him send us there.”
“Yeah!”
The returning college students mainly focus on a “circle”, leisure and a little bit of living expenses.
By noon,
the news that Binghu Village was recruiting extras had spread throughout Jiuge City and was spreading outward at a speed of fifty kilometers per minute.
There were even some who couldn’t sit still and went directly to the Jiuge City bus station and started various carpooling, asking for help.
For a time,
the bus station in Jiuge City was occupied by young people, and the scene was spectacular.
Even the line driver who has been on the line for many years couldn’t help but sigh, “Can Binghu Village withstand such a roar?”
In the evening, in
the office of Jiuge City,
Zuo Xuezhong was busy dealing with the problem on his desk. A thick pile of documents.
“Director!”
At this moment, the secretary appeared hurriedly at the door of the office.
