Chapter 9: Yin Yin Zhiping

~8 min read 1,523 words

Zhang Jizhong and Lu Kuan sat face-to-face in the RV, and the small square table in the narrow space was filled with the Great Buddha Longjing tea that the big beard bought when filming in Xinchang, Zhejiang Province.

Seeing Lu Kuan smiled and thanked the big beard for his politeness, his mood leisurely tasting tea.

"Not bad!" He took a light sip of tea.

"Fresh, mellow, and sweet, and the soup color is apricot green and bright, but the water is a bit rough."

Zhang Zhang Jizhong gave the young Daoist a thumbs up, "Daoist Master Lu is an expert. I originally planned to go to Suzhou Dayang Mountain to hit a few buckets of mountain spring water to make tea today, but..."

"Hey... I am really exhausted now."

Seeing Lu Kuan smiled noncommittally. He had long known the whole story from Jiang Jiang Qinqin's call.

It was a set of aging ropes from the prop team that scraped on the sharp rocks of Tiger Hill, which caused Brother Jing to turn from a hero into a bear.

Listening to the big beard's change in his address from Daoist Lu to Daoist Master Lu, he thought it was time to settle the battle gains.

Well, this Daoist Master Lu will clean up your memory and plant a Trojan horse in your head!

"Daoist Master Lu, the 350,000 consultant fee is not a problem. What about the other aspects?"

Seeing Lu Kuan sighed deeply, his face embarrassed, "Three days ago, it was effortless, but now there are twists and turns, and resolution is not an easy task."

Zhang Zhang Jizhong's face was a little ugly. This wouldn't be another price increase, right?

He had the heart to ask the other party to get off the car, but he didn't want to cause more trouble at the last moment of the crew's sprint.

Every day of filming delay is hundreds of thousands of personnel costs, and it will also affect the post-production time and the release schedule.

Take the lesser of two evils, he suppressed his temper, "350,000, please Daoist Master Lu take care of all aspects!"

Seeing Lu Kuan laughed dumbly, with a surprised expression, "Director Zhang is serious. It's not about money, I have a small request."

"I want to play a character in the drama. I don't know if it's okay?"

"Hmm? Please speak?" The big beard was a little stunned, never expecting that the person of the Dao had such a big acting addiction.

"Yin Yin Zhiping, I will perform in my true colors. You can find someone to try the play."

Zhang Zhang Jizhong was a little speechless, "This..."

He cast aside the filter of religious mystery and observed the young Daoist in casual clothes in front of him. From appearance to temperament, it was not an exaggeration to say that he was outstanding.

Thinking of the request he made, it was so appropriate.

Yin Yin Zhiping only appeared for two or three episodes in the whole drama. The scenes were not heavy, but it was a role with lines, actions, and close-ups, which was very suitable for a newcomer to test the water.

This is clearly deliberate, calculating every step of his side.

It is really a deep-minded person.

Zhang Zhang Jizhong sat on the single sofa and smiled, talking face-to-face with Seeing Lu Kuan, his body movements showing that he now regarded him as a negotiation object worthy of attention.

Seeing Lu Kuan in his past life was also a small person who fought his way up in the rolling red dust.

"The so-called straight heart is the dojo. The Daoist descends the mountain to practice in the red dust."

"This big thousand world, the entertainment circle is dirty, vulgar, complex, and red-powder skeletons, which is no more suitable."

Human nature is evil, and every top circle is inevitably hidden with dirt and filth, but the entertainment circle is particularly prominent under the illumination of the spotlight.

Zhang Zhang Jizhong was hesitant, saying that he was mysterious and full of tricks, but the judgment and prediction of the two things before and after were mysterious, making people have to believe.

Saying that he has the bones of a fairy and does not flow into the secular world, but he is willing to mix into the crew and the actors' secular affairs. Where does this look like a master outside the world?

Seeing Lu Kuan laughed loudly, "Director Zhang, don't worry. It's already the 21st century. The identity of a Daoist can't be put on the table. I also have to prepare more for the future."

This is the truth. The so-called "matching with the right, winning with the strange," he can't always rely on this god-like style to make friends with all parties. Occasionally, the finishing touch must be used at the critical moment, otherwise there are too many flaws!

Starting from an actor, bowing into the game, using the enthusiasm of people in the circle for strange and supernatural things to hook resources, and moving around in this capital and human society is the right way. The Daoist identity can only be used as a cover and cannot be on the table.

Zhang Zhang Jizhong didn't care whether his words were true or false. In any case, such a small role with less than twenty minutes of appearance time, he gave it to him. The most important thing now is to restart the crew that has stopped.

Seeing Lu Kuan also gave the big beard some suggestions from a PR perspective: "Li Li Yapeng is hospitalized, Zhou Xun's emotions are unstable, reporters will definitely hear the wind, and the crew must be prepared for public opinion response."

"You mean?"

"Hype up their feelings because of the drama, cover up the negative news of the filming delay and the main creator's injury, and hype up the heat."

Zhang Zhang Jizhong looked at him in astonishment. This is not a brilliant approach, but it is a common hype method used by the crew, but it is strange to hear it from a young Daoist who is new to the entertainment circle.

But he had to admit that it was the best solution at present.

"Also, Director Zhang can privately notify Li Li Yapeng's current girlfriend Qu Ying, the sooner the better."

Seeing Lu Kuan blew the floating leaves in the teacup at ease, throwing this dirty trick to the big beard without any psychological pressure. He believed that the other party would make the best choice.

With his hype methods in several Jin Yong adaptation dramas before and after, it would be strange if he didn't seize the opportunity to hype the heat of the love triangle to explode and warm up *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*!

With a "clatter," the teacup in Zhang Zhang Jizhong's hand slipped, tea spilled, and the small table was stained.

Seeing Lu Kuan, your heart is dirtier than mine!

It seems that since he knew this young Daoist, he has been constantly refreshing people's cognition of him.

Now it is even more like a cloud and mist, making Zhang Zhang Jizhong unable to see his original face.

But one thing can be confirmed, this is a smart person, and it is always right to be friends with smart people.

As for the original actor Cheng Haofeng, he naturally became a victim of dirty transactions.

The weak eat the strong, not surprising.

——

Crew studio.

"What? You? Yin Yin Zhiping?"

Jiang Jiang Qinqin was unbelievable. She didn't know if she was crazy or the world was crazy.

Daoists have descended the mountain and entered the entertainment circle.

"Cough cough..." Seeing Lu Kuan coughed twice with his fist in his mouth, pretending to be angry, "Does Sister Jiang feel that my image is not up to standard?"

She just felt it was too sudden.

The previous second was shocked by his unpredictable prediction, and this time he seemed to have fallen into the world again, becoming an entertainment circle person who is as keen on progress as she is.

Jiang Jiang Qinqin patted his arm with blame, and saw Zhang Zhang Jizhong, Ju Ju Jueliang and other directors walk into the studio.

"Is this for you to try the play?" Jiang Jiang Qinqin believed his words.

The crew stopped again for a few days. Everyone often saw the Yin Yin Zhiping who came halfway to grab the role and the producer boss were very close.

Frequently entering and leaving his RV, and even arranging the crew's affairs, even how the table in the dressing room is placed, he has to manage!

Accompanied by producer Meng Meng Fanyao, like a fox pretending to be a tiger, patrolling the crew, the latter is also obedient and adjusted many details that were originally ignored.

This is naturally Seeing Lu Kuan's blind planning. He just made some improvements based on the most basic Feng Shui knowledge, making the overall structure more reasonable.

For example, the aisle is more spacious, the ventilation is better, etc. Other strange and supernatural things are not discussed, they are all just for show.
