Chapter 301: Making false accounts

The wind gently blows through the curtains of memory, as if the sound of old dreams is beating on the window sill again and again. The film studio is always a place where dreams are created, dreams come true, but dreams may be shattered. It carries the memories of generations.

I don’t know how many people from the cast of [Bright Sword] will be obsessed with this place after tonight.

Although Ma Liu was talking very relaxedly at this time, he was quite nervous inside.

Although he always keeps two accounts because of his cautious habits, if Ye Ming really can't find out, it will not look good on his face. It would be a small thing to be punished when he goes back, but if he loses his face in the circle, he will lose his reputation in the future. [Bright Sword] The crew said that Ye Ming had the final say, and it was impossible for anyone to know about him, Ma Liu, as the director.

This guy is fat and very wretched, but he is a cautious person who is extremely afraid of death. At this time, Ye Ming said in a business-like manner: "Let's take it over and check it out first. After all, we can't let people say that I am unqualified as a producer. After so many days, I actually said that I didn't care about the crew at all. "

Ma Liu saw that a problem like checking the accounts was unavoidable, so he nodded helplessly and ordered the theater manager to bring over the account books. During this free time, Ye Ming pointed to the guy named Shunzi and said, "You, go and call a few actors from our company over. I have something to explain to them."

At this time, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly fell into an embarrassment. Ye Ming wanted to find artists from Huihuang Company. In fact, not long ago, the group of people had already left. Looking at the time, it seemed that they had been gone for more than half an hour. .

It is estimated that this group of people did not meet Ye Ming, otherwise, Ye Ming would definitely not sit here so calmly.

Shunzi hesitated for a moment, then said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Mr. Ye, I'm sorry, I really don't know where they are."

At this moment, Ye Ming was stunned. His own people were suppressed in this crew. This was what he heard from Sister Fang Fang. In fact, when he came this time, one of them was here to check the accounts, and the other one was actually for himself. Supported by actors. An actor with a backer actually said that he was suppressed by others in his own company's crew. Ye Ming felt that what his boss was doing was not very qualified.

However, the crew member actually said that he could not be contacted. Ye Ming immediately turned gloomy, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and said with an unsatisfactory expression: "I can't be contacted." Man, this is interesting. I can’t contact the artists of my company for the film my company invested in. Director Ma, do you want to give me an explanation?"

Ye Ming naturally said that he would not let this matter go so easily. He originally thought that this matter was relatively serious, but he definitely did not expect that such a problem would be much more serious than he thought. .

Ma Liu looked troubled and didn't know what to say for a moment. A young man behind him had no choice but to stand up and said with some trepidation: "Mr. Ye, I am Ma Long, the assistant director of the crew. Actually, I think they are not satisfied with the crew's arrangements, so it is not necessary to go back first. , the crew must have some rules when filming. Not everyone can abide by such rules. Some of the actors in your company were uncooperative and actually left because they were acting like celebrities."

This is impossible to believe, but this is the only way Ma Long can say it. If he dares to say that he forced people from Huihuang Company away, then in such a situation, Ye Ming would probably be torn apart. He has it all in his heart.

Therefore, he knew that his lie would be exposed soon, but in such a situation, he had no choice but to keep telling it. But when he said this, Ma Long shivered, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.

Ye Ming stared at Ma Long, and a powerful momentum suddenly burst out. That unparalleled momentum made Ma Long feel suffocated for a moment, as if he himself felt that at this time, he was facing It is as despairing as a high mountain. That feeling of helplessness and despair was something he was unwilling to face for the second time in his life.

Ye Ming pointed at the many people in the crew and said, "Okay. I think so. I originally wanted to give you people a chance, but I didn't expect that you guys would actually I mean I won’t shed tears until I see the coffin.” After saying these words, Ye Ming was too lazy to pay attention to these people and called Xu Zheng. As expected, Xu Zheng had some sense and did not have any conflicts with the crew. , when he saw that the conflict had reached an irreconcilable stage, he decisively left with the people. Ye Ming didn't say much. He just said something and asked him to bring people over quickly. At this time, Takeda had already said that he had taken away the songbook.

Because the production team has not been in operation for a long time, the ledger is not very thick, but it contains a lot of densely packed accounts. At this time, in fact, the crew's accounts are usually divided into two parts, one for outsiders to see. This type of accounts are often said to be very beautiful, but simply mean that they are almost in the wrong place. The other one is actually relatively confidential and is for the director to read alone.

Of course, even if it is for outsiders to see, it cannot be understood by ordinary people. It is simply impossible for people who are not in the industry, or even senior people in the entertainment industry, to understand some of the crew's account books. , even if it is a simple account book for outsiders to see, very few people can figure out what is written in the account book in a short time. And Ma Liu also bullied Ye Ming because he was young and might not be able to truly understand what the ledger looked like.

Who knew that at this time, Ye Ming actually said that he was laughing while reading the account book. As for why Ye Ming laughed in such a situation, no one dared to ask.

And Wang Baoqiang, who was standing next to Ye Ming, was even more confused at this moment about why Ye Ming was so happy. However, at this time, Wang Baoqiang also knew something, that is to say, if the boss was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear, then in such a situation, there must be something to be happy about. Therefore, at this time, Wang Baoqiang also worked hard and had fun following his boss. However, Wang Baoqiang was not happy. His cheerfulness immediately frightened everyone in the office.

This guy doesn't seem to recognize life at all. I don’t know what Ye Ming thought of when he read the script, but from Ye Ming’s expression, it was definitely not good news. It seemed that Ye Ming was really building up the anger in his heart. At this time, the weird atmosphere was finally broken by Ma Liu. Seeing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Ma Liu immediately said: "Producer Ye, don't worry about our crew, there is absolutely no problem on the books. "

Ye Ming said sarcastically while watching: "It is indeed not simple. It is not a script written by ordinary people. It is rounded and hidden. Good guys, why don't you use the technique of nine departures and thirteen returns here? Talent, I didn't expect that my crew would actually say that there is such talent. Director Ma, I haven't congratulated you yet." This was a slap in the face to Chi Guoguo. Ma Liu originally thought that Ye Ming He is a young producer, and he can clearly see that some things on the crew are unsightly.

However, what Ye Ming said is a secret that only people in the circle know, and only the core people in the circle who manage the crew know. This is actually a small way for some leaders of the crew to make money for themselves.

The so-called rounding is not a simple calculation rule. It is the most effective way for the crew to make money. It means rounding, what does rounding mean? As the name suggests, it is like applying for a hundred yuan of expenses. At such a time, if 50% is left, the crew will have to give an explanation. .

However, if less than 40% of the remaining money is left, the default is to discard it.

If it is five yuan, then it is a method of reimbursement at such a time. For example, if you apply for a reimbursement of fourteen yuan, it will naturally be reimbursed. But if it is more than fifteen yuan, then when you apply for reimbursement Just apply for twenty. Any fraction over five is usually rounded up to an integer. This is five. This is a relatively simple algorithm of the crew.

But if you can master one or two of these methods, then in such a situation, it is actually relatively easy to make a fortune. Some of the powerful departments in the crew are usually very fat and oily. Unexpectedly, Ye Ming himself said that he knew so much about some of the crew's accounting techniques that he could even say things like "nine times out and thirteen times back". At this time, Ma Liu didn't have much confidence in himself.

But you can't see Ye Ming's age. Could it be that Ye Ming can clearly see the crew's accounts? This is surprising. There are also these nine departures and thirteen returns. Very few people know about it, but Ye Ming also said it outright.

Therefore, Ma Liu immediately said: "Producer Ye is joking. The crew's accounts are clear and without any flaws. I have also done TV series more than once, but under such circumstances, I will do it again." I mean I’ve never seen such clear accounts.”

At this time, Ma Liu was naturally determined not to admit that this matter had anything to do with him. (To be continued)
