So that’s what happened...

After hearing Zhuo Lan's words, Qiu Ming immediately put his heart back into the dog's belly.

He had heard Zhuo Lan say before that in their mountains, boys were valued over girls. If a boy could study, his family would support him in studying for a few more years. If he couldn't study, he would be sent out to work to make money.

The best way out for a woman is to get married. After all, every family is poor. To support one more person, it is better to get married early and get some gifts.

Therefore, women in the mountains marry early.

Zhuo Lan has probably seen a lot of these things since she was a child. Although she has walked out of the mountains and gained a lot of experience, she still can't change her concept. She feels that she has reached the age of marriageable age and needs to get married early.

Qiu Ming quickly said: "You are still young, there is no need to rush to get married. Besides, you are not in the mountains now, and you are different from the women in the mountains."

"But...but I think it's actually good to get married early."

Zhuo Lan looked at Qiu Ming and said seriously.

Qiu Ming really wanted to hold up his forehead, but he still said patiently: "Then it's too early, right? You are younger than me. You started acting before you even graduated from college. Under normal circumstances, you should still be in your junior or senior year.

Four, right? Think about it, how can anyone get married before graduating from college?"

"Too!"

Zhuo Lan thought for a while and felt that Qiu Ming's words were right, but then she added: "But you can get married after graduating from college, and I'm almost there."

"Graduating from college...there's actually no need to worry about this. Your career has just begun and you are now on the rise..."

Qiu Ming scratched his head and suddenly had an idea. He found a point of persuasion and said quickly: "Didn't you always say that you want to make a lot of money so that your family can get out of the mountains? Now is the opportunity. Your acting skills are so good.

, as long as you continue to work hard, you will definitely become a very, very, very good actor in the future, and you will definitely make your family’s life better and better.”

Improving the lives of her family is Zhuo Lan's biggest thought.

As long as he said this, Zhuo Lan probably wouldn't think too much about getting married.

At this moment, Qiu Ming felt that he was too smart and knew how to handle it.

Sure enough, Zhuo Lan's increasingly fairer and delicate face showed a hint of embarrassment. Perhaps Qiu Ming's words had reached her heart.

Qiu Ming added more energy: "Let me ask you, do you like performing?"

Zhuo Lan nodded and answered honestly: "Yes, I like it!"

"Then do you want to continue acting?"

After a slight pause, Qiu Ming thought it would be better to ask another question: "If you think about it this way, if I ask you to give up acting now and never act again in the future, what would you do? Can you accept it?"

Zhuo Lan frowned and shook his head almost subconsciously: "No...unacceptable."

"Just say it!"

Qiu Ming said: "Look, acting can not only make you money, it is your job, it is also your interest and hobby. Do you know that in this world, if you can do what you like, you can also make money?"

Isn’t money such a happy thing?”

Zhuo Lan remained silent.

Qiu Ming added: "Zhuo Lan, you are really happy and lucky. This is probably the so-called joy after all hardships. Are you willing to give up now?"

Zhuo Lan shook his head subconsciously again.

She is now the sole breadwinner of the family, and she relies on her to earn back the school expenses for her younger siblings.

She had been receiving money from the company Feitianxia Media before, which was very small. She had to send them all back, which was barely enough.

Since she won the "Best Newcomer" award, Lin Xiaoxiao has accepted several advertisements and endorsements for her, which has made her money more abundant.

Now, Ning Yunxi, played by Zhuo Lan, has become a hit because of the TV series "I Want to Take You on a Travel", and her commercial value has been fully demonstrated. Invitations such as advertising endorsements are now full of mailboxes.

It can be said that the next period of time will be the golden period for Zhuo Lan to make money quickly. Her dream of taking her family out of the mountains will soon be realized.

At this time, of course she was unwilling and unable to give up.

Qiu Ming spread his hands: "That's right, don't think too much about anything else now, just concentrate on your performance. As for making money, I will help you think about it. If we work together, we will definitely make our family's life better and better."

Okay, do you think it’s okay?”

Hearing Qiu Ming say, "If we work together, we will definitely make our family's life better and better." Zhuo Lan couldn't help but blush.

Then, she looked at Qiu Ming and nodded seriously in agreement.

Qiu Ming also nodded and smiled back.

He could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Oh my God, it was so hard to get rid of this kid's idea of ​​"getting married and having children." Being an agent is really not an easy job.

In the whole day, only three less important scenes were filmed. This was relatively fast, and Qiu Ming didn't even know what to say.

In the evening, Zhang Ruoyin suddenly summoned all the "senior executives" of the crew to his room for a meeting.

After Qiu Ming finished his dinner and took a cold shower, he followed the others and walked into the house where Zhang Ruoyin lived.

This is the courtyard of the villagers. The house is very simple and there are not many places to sit, so most of them stand leaning against the wall. Only a few people can find a place to rub their butts.

Qiu Ming was standing next to the door. He was on the edge between staff and non-staff, and his status was a bit aloof, so he decided not to get involved.

He didn't know why Zhang Ruoyin called everyone here today, but this kind of "summoning" had the meaning of an emergency call. It was probably not a small matter, and it wasn't a good thing.

When everyone arrived, Zhang Ruoyin spoke. The first thing he said was: "Our filming permit has not been issued."

What's the meaning?

No one thought about it for a while, so they were quiet for a while.

Immediately, when they figured it out, several people made surprised sounds, and everyone's faces showed various expressions.

Zhang Ruoyin added: "Yes, the filming permit was not obtained. It was said that there was a problem with the plot of our movie and it did not meet the conditions and needed to be changed."

After everyone took some time to digest, the leader of the lighting team asked: "Boss Ruoyin, what are you going to do?"

The crew was organized by Zhang Ruoyin, and everyone followed his lead.

In the crew of this kind of independent film, the authority and weight of the director may not be comparable to those of directors of regular large crews, but he is the backbone of the crew, and the people in the crew will watch what he does before making a choice to follow up.

Or don’t follow up.

Zhang Ruoyin smoked a cigarette and puffed away smoke and said: "I will continue to think of a way to deal with the shooting permit, but the shooting cannot stop, and I will continue to shoot."

This means that if the permit to continue filming cannot be obtained, he will finish filming the film.

Under normal circumstances, if there is no filming permit, even if the film is filmed, it cannot be released. Even if the law is stricter, they can come directly to seize the crew and issue a fine.

To put it bluntly, this movie will really become an underground movie and cannot see the light of day.

Movies that cannot see the light of day naturally have no value, after all, there is no way to monetize them.

In recent years, the only way for underground films to go is to send them to foreign countries for exhibitions, or directly to be screened abroad.

It’s also difficult to make money when it’s screened abroad. Unless you participate in exhibitions and win awards, foreign film producers will be willing to spend money to buy the film.

However, there is also a hidden danger here, that is, if you secretly send the film out, you will attract "the gaze from above" if you are not careful. At that time, in addition to the liar, he will be banned even more severely, and even the director, actors, and crew members will be banned.

Incurring bans, such as not being able to engage in film-related business for ten years, no matter how talented the film is, there is no way to withstand such torture.

Therefore, when Zhang Ruoyin said this now, he meant to risk everything.

Zhang Ruoyin can risk his life, but others may not be able to.

He asked everyone to come here today, obviously just to talk about this matter and then see their opinions.

Zhang Shan is a screenwriter and Zhang Ruoyin's clan brother, so his opinions go without saying.

Needless to say, Zhao Huanghuang is Zhang Ruoyin's die-hard brother. The two of them are like Jiao Meng, and they must advance and retreat together.

No one else said anything, but Jingjingfa said first: "Boss Ruoyin, I'll do whatever you want, I'll do whatever you want. There's nothing you say."

"The same goes for us. If it's because of the boss, we'll look at you."

Behind the panoramic hair, two other people also spoke. One of them was the person in charge of the lighting team, and the other was a makeup artist.

Everyone else fell silent. This kind of thing is related to livelihood, so we have to think more about it.

Zhang Ruoyin added: "You don't have to worry about this. I understand this kind of thing. I will respect your wishes whether you go or stay. I will still contact you as soon as possible when I have a job in the future. This... well

, thank you for your support and trust in me all the time. No matter what you choose this time, it will never hurt our friendship."

With these words, everyone who had not expressed their opinions obviously relieved a lot of worries in their hearts.

The stylist suddenly said: "Boss, if this is better, we will continue filming this scene, just don't put my name on it... Well, is this okay?"

Others joined in and hurriedly said: "Yes, if it's because of the boss, we don't ask for your name to be put on it, we will continue to follow you in this drama."

If they don't put their names on it, it will have nothing to do with them when the movie is filmed.

They only contribute their efforts but leave no name behind.

Doing this can be regarded as a way to avoid the consequences later on to a certain extent.

Of course, if the film is exhibited in exhibitions and wins awards in the future, they will naturally have no chance of receiving that honor.

For example, if your styling wins an award, it has nothing to do with the stylist.

Zhang Ruoyin thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay!"

After a slight pause, he said, "Thank you."
