Chapter 1217 1317. Idol Cameron
After Han Li pointed out who the director Steve was, she stepped aside. According to the program requirements, all the external relations work today had to be handed over to Nie Wei.
Steve was checking the props. He saw Nie Wei and others coming over, but he ignored them.
But he didn't care about Nie Wei and his companions, but the staff did. Seeing that it was Nie Wei who came first, the staff stared with eyes wide open, extremely surprised, and even put down the work at hand.
"Hello, Mr. Nie."
"Hello, I am Zhou Duoduo's assistant today. I will ask you to take care of my work later." Nie Wei greeted with a smile and handed over the coffee drink that had been prepared long ago: "This is a drink. I wish you a smooth work."
"Thank you, thank you." The staff was flattered to receive the drink handed over by Nie Wei. Just when he was about to say something, Steve on the side suddenly said: "What are you doing? It's working time now. Who asked you to chat with others?"
This scolding not only made the staff stunned, but also Nie Wei and others a little confused.
Before everyone could come back to their senses, Steve pointed at Nie Wei and his group and scolded them, "And who are you? This is a film set, not a place for you to chat. Get out."
Han Li saw that her boss was being scolded, and immediately stepped forward to explain, but was stopped by Nie Wei.
"Hello, Director Steve. I am the assistant of Ms. Zhou Duoduo, the new spokesperson for Fanta today. I am sorry to disturb your work. Here is the coffee prepared for you." Nie Wei was neither angry nor embarrassed. With a faint smile, he took a portion of hand-ground coffee specially prepared for the director from Han Li and handed it over.
Steve looked at the coffee handed over by Nie Wei and didn't take it. He had a cold face. Not to mention the people on Nie Wei's side, even the staff of Steve's advertising team couldn't stand it and wanted to remind Steve of Nie Wei's identity.
"Director Steve, coffee should be drunk while it is hot. It will not taste good when it is cold. Our artists will need your care in a while." Nie Wei, who was left out for a long time, still did not mean to be angry. Instead, he handed the coffee over again and said gently.
This scene made the staff filming on the side admire him.
They all have an inherent impression of big bosses like Nie Wei. No matter how good-tempered those bosses are, they will get angry if they are slapped in the face.
Let alone others, the company's executive vice president Ma Dong is an example.
Looking at Ma Dong, who is usually smiling and joking, if someone really provokes him, he will instantly become a big tiger. Not only will he yell at you, but he may also directly "bite" you to death and let you get out of the company.
And like Nie Wei, the other party was rude more than once and still smiled and maintained a polite attitude, which really made him look at him with new eyes. At this moment, Nie Wei really seemed like those real life assistants, with the responsibility of swallowing spit and bearing a lot of grievances for the artists.
Steve finally received the coffee that Nie Wei handed out for the second time.
"Humph, remember, don't point your finger at people next time, it's very impolite." Steve left this sentence and walked aside, while Han Li in Zhou Duoduo's team blushed.
Steve's words made it very clear that the cold reception they suffered was entirely because of Han Li's finger before, and Steve was "repaying the blow".
Han Li was really wronged at this moment and was about to cry, and hurriedly explained to Nie Wei: "Boss, I really didn't mean it just now, I was just afraid that you would recognize the wrong person."
"Don't feel wronged, I understand, you didn't do anything wrong." Nie Wei did not blame Han Li, but turned back to comfort him.
"That's right, it's obviously that person who is narrow-minded." Zhou Duoduo also comforted her on the side, and couldn't help but complain about Steve. In Zhou Duoduo's opinion, Steve was really too narrow-minded.
Nie Wei couldn't say anything about this. The right or wrong of this matter depends entirely on the individual's perspective. Han Li's finger at that time was not directed at Steve, but just asked Nie Wei to know who the favor was, and the distance was also far, and it was not pointed in front of the other party. Although it was not polite, it was not a very rude thing.
But her finger was seen by Steve, and the director was not a broad-minded person, so he held a grudge against her.
Han Li regretted it at this moment. She knew very well that the origin of this matter was still on her side. She was originally sent by Misa to assist Nie Wei, but she didn't expect that she would cause trouble first and let Nie Wei help clean up her mess.
Nie Wei didn't care about Steve's lukewarm attitude. After comforting Han Li for a few words, he told the staff to give coffee to the staff of the advertising team.
This approach can quickly narrow the distance between the two unfamiliar teams. After all, you can't hit a smiling person. In addition, if there is any conflict during the filming, at that time, for the sake of coffee drinks, there will be more room for negotiation.
China is a society of human relationships. Many things can be discussed on the basis of human relationships, and it is not necessary to follow rules and regulations or contracts.
Take filming in the United States as an example. The working hours of actors are regulated. Any work tasks that exceed the time limit must not only obtain the actor's permission, but also pay additional remuneration. The same goes for staff. Overtime must be paid overtime, otherwise various protection associations will come to your door, which is troublesome.
But it's different in China. Chinese actors are really hard-working. Many people on the Internet think that it's too easy for celebrities to make money. This is actually wrong. In fact, there are only a handful of celebrities who can make big money. People, after all, even if they collect rags, there is a rag king who makes millions a year.
As for the remaining 90% of actors, their lives may not be as good as those of white-collar workers.
And working overtime during filming, going into the water in winter and wearing cotton-padded jackets in summer, these are all basic operations. Many actors have to go into battle with injuries due to lameness. They use crutches to shoot only their upper bodies. One shoot lasts twenty hours. After returning to the hotel, they take a shower. I couldn't care less and fell asleep, but just as I fell asleep I was woken up by my agent because the director had an inspiration and wanted to reshoot.
But many actors have to endure it and finish it, so the actor industry is also one of the professions with the most occupational diseases in China.
And these things are simply unimaginable in Hollywood.
As Nie Wei distributed coffee to every staff member, the advertising team soon learned that this time Zhou Duoduo actually brought Nie Wei and Shu Chang as assistants to shoot the advertisement. All the staff members were secretly talking for a while. Discuss this matter here.
"Zhou Duoduo is too arrogant, why don't you be so arrogant?"
"I'm jealous of the real-name system. I guess this episode of "Celebrity Assistant for a Day" will definitely become a hit. Do you think I can appear on the show?"
"Let's go over to Nie Wei's side later. By the way, can you see if my foundation is evenly applied?"
"Where's my lipstick? Did it get on my teeth..."
Even though a group of staff members were muttering in a low voice, when there were more people, Steve discovered something was wrong, and immediately shouted in dissatisfaction: "What are you all doing? If you don't hurry up and get to work, if nine If you don’t prepare before clicking, if you delay, I will deduct your bonus for this month!”
Steve's roar silenced all the staff, and they quickly increased the speed of their hands and feet. Although they were very excited about the appearance of Nie Wei and Shu Chang, compared with their own bonuses, the actual bonuses were undoubtedly more important.
Nie Wei and others remained silent. Shu Chang was negotiating with the staff of the program crew about the clothes Zhou Duoduo needed today. Han Li also helped Zhou Duoduo make a pot of bamboo leaf green tea. This was done after Nie Wei. Yui is used to it.
In fact, Zhou Duoduo didn't drink tea originally, but since she joined the new girl group, she has been traveling all over the country, and sometimes even has to go abroad for tours. Naturally, she will be very tired every day, but she can't do this in front of her fans. When fatigue shows up, you naturally need a refreshing drink.
At first Zhou Duoduo drank a well-known refreshing drink, but after drinking it for a while, she felt a little uncomfortable in her chest. When she went to the hospital for a checkup, she found signs of myocarditis. When the doctor asked, she learned about Zhou Duoduo and that drink. The reason was immediately apparent.
"Although that kind of drink is refreshing, it stimulates the heart and overdrafts the human body's potential. If you are really sleepy, drink coffee. If you think coffee is high in calories, drink more tea. However, you still need to rest more to treat this disease. As long as you have a normal routine, your heart rate will naturally return to normal."
It was impossible to rest more, but Zhou Duoduo really didn't dare to drink that kind of drink.
Coupled with the doctor's warning about coffee's high calories, Zhou Duoduo finally chose tea as her daily refreshing drink.
There was another interesting thing during this period. I remembered what the doctor said. One day, Zhou Duoduo was bored and checked the calories of coffee online. It was 421 calories. She also thought about the tea she drank. Another cup of tea scared her. One hop, although it is better than coffee, it still has 328 calories.
This incident scared her so much that she didn't dare to drink tea. She refused to take the tea leaves that Nie Wei brought back to her.
This made Nie Wei a little confused. When asked her why, Zhou Duoduo told Nie Wei that tea was a high-calorie drink. Nie Wei couldn't help but feel happy after hearing this.
"It's true that coffee is a high-calorie drink, but tea is not. It's a simple truth. You can drink all the coffee in your stomach, but will you eat tea?"
"Then how many calories should it have?" Zhou Duoduo felt a little stupid, but couldn't help but ask.
"Is it about the same as drinking plain water?" Nie Wei thought about it and couldn't remember. It should be close to zero. Anyway, in his impression, tea is the healthiest refreshing drink.
When Zhou Duoduo heard that it was almost the same as plain water and refreshing, she was completely relieved. Although she was not used to drinking it at first, she gradually became addicted to it. She felt sleepy after not drinking it for a day. As a result, she felt sleepy wherever she went out to work. She had to prepare a pot of tea for her first. Zhou Duoduo was drinking tea from a tea cup like a veteran cadre all day long, and it became an interesting thing in the company.
Steve's prestige in the advertising team is very high. No one dares to delay when he orders, so the advertising starts on time at 9:30.
Nie Wei didn't have anything going on during this period. He wanted to use his mobile phone to take some private photos of Zhou Duoduo at work so that they could be posted online for publicity.
After the first shot was taken, Nie Wei seized the moment and immediately took out his mobile phone to take pictures. However, before taking two photos, the sharp-eyed Steve discovered it again.
"That person, who allowed you to take pictures on the set, get out of here. If you disturb my shooting again, don't show up on my set." Steve's daily anger made Nie Wei speechless.
However, Nie Weiyi patiently explained to him: "Director Steve, this is the job assigned to me by the manufacturer. These photos are to be posted on Weibo for promotion, and I promise that they will not involve the issue of spoilers in your advertisement."
"No, I don't care about the manufacturer or anything else, anyway, you are not allowed to take photos on my set." Steve replied very firmly.
Nie Wei was completely speechless, and he didn't argue with Steve. He would just report this matter directly to the manufacturer. As for the photos, at most he would take screenshots from today's commercials, or take advantage of the break from work to ask Zhou Duoduo not to rush to change clothes and take time for Nie Wei to take a few photos. Anyway, it wouldn't take much time.
But Steve's repeated tough and even unreasonable attitude also made Nie Wei dissatisfied. Of course, on the surface, he still kept the gift bag, but he was full of unpleasant feelings in his heart.
He didn't really have no temper. In fact, Nie Wei's temper was not good. He was only patient with people he cared about, and he was always cold and ruthless to people he didn't care about.
In Nie Wei's opinion, Steve's ability is not to be mentioned for the moment. As an advertising director, his arrogance is even greater than that of Cameron, the tyrant on the set. He really takes himself too seriously.
What Nie Wei doesn't know is that Steve's idol is really Cameron. It's a pity that he doesn't have Cameron's imagination or ability. He has been in the industry for 20 years. Apart from shooting two failed art films, he has no achievements. He has become famous for shooting commercials.
Although he is not capable enough, he has learned Cameron's temper and is better than the master.
Ten minutes later, the manufacturer's representative arrived at the scene, but did not go to find director Steve immediately. Instead, he ran to Nie Wei first, which made Nie Wei feel both amused and helpless.
"Mr. Nie, welcome, welcome. It's great that you're here."
"I'm really honored that Miss Zhou Duoduo can become the spokesperson for our Fanta brand. Our cooperation will definitely create good results."
"Do you have any guidance on advertising?"
The manufacturer representative was too enthusiastic, and Nie Wei was a little confused. He couldn't help but interrupt him and pointed to the camera of "One-day Star Assistant" next to him, explaining: "Hello, my identity today is Zhou Duoduo's assistant."
"Ah, so that's it." The manufacturer representative saw the camera and looked as if he had suddenly realized something.
Just when the manufacturer representative was about to continue to build relationships, Steve's roar suddenly came from the other side...
