After many twists and turns, Mai Xiaoyu finally found Huang Lei, the director of I believe.

    Huang Lei also wanted to test the water and try to transform the director. The two sides talked very speculative.

    After leaving the cafe, they found a restaurant for lunch and continued to talk about the script, the plot, the crew and the actors.

    Huang Lei doesn''t care that all the characters in the play are played by cute members. He just puts forward that he wants to see three protagonists these two days and will measure whether they are suitable for the characters from a professional point of view.

    If it doesn''t work, reselect from the members.

    Mai Xiaoyu did not refuse.

    Huang Lei is different from Qiu Yunhui. The former is for film, and the latter obviously has ulterior motives.

    After dinner, after an hour of negotiation, the two people added some supplementary clauses to the Mengren standard contract and finally signed the contract.

    Huang Lei''s pay is also 150000, and Mai Xiaoyu is willing to pay.

    It will be officially started next Monday. The shooting cycle is 40 days. Huang Lei records Mai Xiaoyu''s mobile phone number and takes the script before leaving.

    In the next few days, he must seize the time to study the script, master the character of the main characters in the play and make a shooting plan. If necessary, the script will be changed.

    "Don''t turn off your cell phone. I''ll probably contact you in the middle of the night."

    Huang Lei did what he said. Twelve hours later, at 2 a.m., Mai Xiaoyu received his emergency call.

    "I want to see three stars tomorrow!"

    Huang Lei is a serious man. He took over the directing work of "I believe" on the way. He is only three days away from starting the machine. He can only break every minute and make full use of it.

    He not only asked to see Huang Bo and other three stars, but also important supporting roles and actors in the play. Through a simple impromptu performance, investigate the actors'' acting skills and their ability to understand the performance.

    Huang Lei is satisfied with the actors selected by Mai Xiaoyu as a whole.

    The three protagonists, Huang Bo and Wang Chuhan, passed through smoothly, and Wang Bin was almost interested, but he was modest and actively listened to guidance and suggestions, which can be cultivated slowly in the shooting process.

    After seeing the three protagonists, Huang Lei made an appointment with supporting actors and role actors in batches.

    Although they are all amateur actors, they are very close to the characters in the play.

    More importantly, Huang Lei found that these people, like Wang Bin, were full of energy and spirit. Everyone accepted their guidance with an open mind and understood and corrected it with heart.

    He can clearly feel that every actor must play his role and make a good film.

    For a crew, this hard work is invaluable.

    Similarly, there are those bitter ha ha friends who Zhang Koizumi found.

    Thirty or forty people, who used to mix with the crew, were at the assistant and apprentice level. After entering the "I believe" crew, the assistant became a regular and the apprentice was promoted to an assistant. This shooting of "I believe" is also a rare opportunity for them.

    If the film is successful, it will be a brilliant qualification to see the crew in the future.

    After joining the group, all departments quickly set up, received funds from Li Xue, prepared costumes, props and other crew equipment as soon as possible, and returned to Li Xue with invoices.

    On Sunday, Mai Xiaoyu, carrying Huang Lei, inspected the selected location one by one.

    At this time, Huang Lei knew the script well, and the location needed in the play had formed an intuitive impression in his heart.

    All the locations met Huang Lei''s requirements. He sighed: "Mr. Mai, who chose these locations?"

    "Company members mobilized relatives and friends to help find it, and finally I made a decision."

    "Your company is not simple. When I met the actors two days ago, I could feel that everyone wanted to make a good film. Now the location... Tut Tut, the members of your company are very cute."

    On Monday morning, the opening ceremony of "I believe" was held in the conference room of Jinlong building.

    The investor Mengren, the film and television staff, the director Huang Lei, all the staff of the crew, the main actors and some members... Well, so many people attended the opening ceremony of I believe.

    Cute film and television didn''t inform the media... It''s useless to inform.

    Small company, low cost, CASS... Any?

    No media will be interested in this "three noes" crew. Even if cute people are willing to pay rich fares and polishing fees, media reporters have to worry about how to publicize.

    In addition to Huang Lei''s water test, the director can barely be regarded as a gimmick. There''s nothing else that can attract attention!

    After discussing with Huang Lei, Mai Xiaoyu simply didn''t inform any media. It''s good for the crew to organize a simple Startup Ceremony.

    At the end of the half-hour opening ceremony, after the members sent their blessings, some left first and some stayed to join the fun.

    Huang Lei called all the actors and the heads of all departments of the crew to have a meeting. At the end of the meeting, the leaders of all departments and their own people began to be busy to prepare for the first play tonight.

    Mai Xiaoyu called Huang Bo and Wang Bin and asked, "how''s the spacewalk practice?"

    According to his plan, spacewalk will be one of the selling points in the future publicity of I believe.

    "Don''t worry, Mr. Mai." Huang Bo answered confidently.

    Wang Bin hesitated for a moment and said, "I''m sorry, Mr. Mai. I think I may not be able to make a movie."

    "What do you mean?"

    "I just received the news this morning. The company signed me up for the national bodybuilding championship. Mr. Mai, believe me, I really knew this morning..."

    Wang Bin''s fitness club is a large-scale fitness club. It often organizes fitness coaches to participate in various levels of fitness competitions in the form of teams to improve their own strength.

    Several gold medal fitness coaches in the club have won places in national competitions such as the national bodybuilding championship, and their value has doubled.

    Some time ago, a gold medal coach was poached by a newly opened competitor. Wang Bin''s fitness club decided to train Wang Bin and sign him up for this year''s national bodybuilding championship.

    He needs time to prepare.

    Being an actor is a dream. No one can guarantee success; Being a fitness coach is a career for work and survival. If you can get a place in the national fitness championship, it will become a major turning point in your career.

    The choice between dream and reality, Wang Bin finally chose the latter.

    "Binzi, how can you do that?"

    "When you turn it on, you say, aren''t you Keng Mai?"

    "What about the movie?"

    "It''s all right. He signed a contract!"

    Cute people''s staff and members spoke out one after another, and the tall Wang Bin bowed his head, blushed and apologized.

    Does blame make sense?

    Binding Wang Bin with a contract?

    Forced urgent hurt feelings, and the film pay is only a few thousand yuan. How much can the liquidated damages be?

    Quickly weigh the pros and cons, Mai Xiaoyu relieved Wang Bin: "it doesn''t matter, I can understand. Don''t worry about the contract, just terminate it later."

    Wang Bin was ashamed and moved: "Mr. Mai, how much liquidated damages do I need? I''ll pay in full."

    "Liquidated damages... I don''t want money."

    "What do you want?"

    "I want you to make efforts to prepare, strive to win a good place in the bodybuilding competition, and promote the film for the company at that time!"
