Chapter 1721 The First Day of Work

At 7 o'clock in the morning, Ye Linqinwa woke up her sister. The two sisters hurriedly finished washing and rushed out of the door.

The summer sun came out a little early, and now it was shining brightly. There were not many people on the streets in the town, but we could see that the crew members staying in the residents' homes were getting up one after another.

Ye Linqinwa and her family also have two crew members staying at their house. Considering that almost all of their families are women, they are all actresses.

The house our family built in the past was big enough to live in.

For this fee alone, the crew had to pay US$2,000 for three months.

A three-month stay costs an average of US$1,000 per person. This is a cheap expense that is unimaginable in the United States, but for the Czech Republic, it is a huge windfall.

Apart from changing the bedding and cleaning frequently, they don't have to do almost anything. Each household can receive two to three thousand US dollars. How worthwhile is this?

If he wasn't worried about the inconvenience of cooking for them and the taste issue, Carlson would have planned for the actors to have breakfast at the host family.

In the end, the three-meal buffet format was adopted. The food preparation place and restaurant were all in the big shed area.

As soon as the crew starts official operations, according to the Qilin Group's rules for film production, the kitchen will be staffed 24 hours a day and there will be food available 24 hours a day.

Those who work late are hungry, those who can't sleep and want to drink coffee, those who stay up late at night to familiarize themselves with the script, those who have to prepare for morning shooting at night... There are many actors and staff like this.

All the crew members can eat the food in the restaurant, and the residents of the town who come to participate in the group performances can also eat.

Even children from the town who come to play will get some cookies, cakes, Coca-Cola and other things to eat and drink.

Today is the first day of work for Hajiekova and Yelinqinva, so they also eat on the set.

Another reason they are embarrassed to say is that they want to save some food money for their families. Although it is not much, they can save whatever they can, right?

Although their salaries are high, their frugal mentality has penetrated into the bones of the two sisters over the past few years.

Yes.

The crew of "The Pianist" paid them very well.

Yin Jun planned to help the two sisters, but he forgot one thing.

After Shi Shaoming followed him to the Czech Republic, the person in charge of the overall affairs of the crew changed from Carlson to him.

Carlson can only be Shi Shaoming's deputy now. Signing a work contract is Shi Shaoming's job.

Yin Jun remembered this, so he asked the two sisters to go to Shi Shaoming to sign a contract.

But he forgot that Shi Shaoming was the one who followed him from Xiangjiang.

Shi Shaoming has known Yin Jun since he debuted. Shi Shaoming knows exactly which of Yin Jun's scandals are true and which are false.

So he understood that Yin Jun was actually a very playboy who liked beautiful women very much.

Coincidentally, this time I came to the Czech Republic, and the crew had just started working, and Yin Jun asked two sisters to come to him to sign a contract. What is the meaning of this?

If it were Carlson, the American would definitely follow the rules strictly. Even if he had met Hatekova, he would probably be a little more relaxed at best.

But Shi Shaoming was different. He was Yin Jun's confidant and was familiar with Yin Jun's character, so when he saw this matter coming to him, he got excited and took two "employment contracts" for the two sisters to sign.

This is not a contract for extras, nor a contract for extras, but a serious contract for hiring crew members. It is the contract with the best conditions except for the group of people from the United States.

After three months, Hajiekova can get 20,000 US dollars.

As the boss's full-time translator, Ye Linqinwa directly received a contract worth US$30,000 plus subsidies.

And each of them was given an advance payment of US$10,000 on the spot. Not everyone can get this money in advance.

So, the two sisters held hands tightly on the way home, and then wrapped their clothes tightly, for fear of losing the money in their pockets.

Price levels in Czechoslovakia are low, as are wages. In the past few years, the money their family owed amounted to a full $50,000. This is a sum that would take a long time for an ordinary Czech family to pay off. of huge sums of money.

But the two sisters did not expect that just three months of work would be able to pay off these accounts.

When they went back last night, when they handed over 20,000 US dollars to Vecera and told their parents about it, several people hugged each other and cried.

My father, who has never been able to get out of bed after recovering from illness, has never cried before, and he cried profusely last night.

After crying like this, the two sisters woke up this morning full of energy.

They originally thought that the buffet here would be simple bread, milk, potatoes, ham, salad, etc., but when they arrived at the restaurant area, they were shocked.

There are more than a dozen long tables arranged in two rows. On each of the large silver stainless steel rectangular plates, there are various foods, such as bread, milk, ham, sausage, steak, fried chicken, apples, watermelon, etc. Sweet potatoes, salad...etc., as long as they can imagine the food, it is all on it.

What's even more exaggerated is that there are also oriental food here, such as a small bowl of soft noodles, fried dough sticks, sesame cakes, xiaolongbao, chicken feet, shrimp dumplings, siomai and so on.

These were things they had never eaten before, or even heard of.

Everyone kept taking food from their plates, and the production area at the back was constantly making new ones to make up for the decrease in food.

Yelinqinwa was a little better and only chose some common foods, but Hajiekova was different. After listening to the introductions of those who ate first, she came back with a bunch of food, most of which were oriental foods.

Hatekova was not the only one who took extra money. Many Czech actors, especially the extras, piled up their plates so much that they almost couldn't put them down, and then reluctantly returned to the dining table with their eyes still open. Keep your eyes on that side, ready to get it again at any time.

Most of them are farmers and have never seen much of the world. These delicious foods cost a lot of money, and they are reluctant to eat them on weekdays.

The economy in the Czech Republic is not good to begin with. Not to mention the extras, even the actors don’t have good food every day.

But these actors also know how to be reserved, so they don't act too greedy.

After just a few bites, Hajiekova exclaimed that it was delicious. Under her semi-force, Yelinqinwa also ate a little. Although it felt a little weird, it tasted delicious.

It is said that the East is a paradise for gourmet food. This can be seen from the variety and taste of breakfast!

If it were not allowed to take away here, both sisters would like to take some back to give their parents a taste.

"Hello!"

The two sisters were eating when a middle-aged man in his forties sat opposite them.

"Are you...Mr. Carlson?" Hajiekova recognized him immediately. Isn't this the man who sat next to the boss yesterday?

"Yes, I am Carlson, Miss Carl." Carlson smiled, "You see, the pronunciation of our last names is somewhat similar."

"Haha." Hajiekova responded with a smile, "I'm going to come to you later. The boss said you would arrange something for me to do today."

"Oh, I'm here for this too." Carlson said, "After you have eaten, go to the newly built street. The boss has already passed. Little Miss Carl, you are responsible for helping the boss when he needs it. Help with translation. Miss Karl, you also stay with the boss. If he has any requirements, you can convey them to the Czech craftsmen who are following him. That's all."

"So simple?" Hajiekova said in surprise. She thought she was going to run around and be busy, but it turned out that she was just a messenger.

Carlson smiled and nodded.

Of course simple.

Don't you look at what beautiful sisters you two are.

The boss may want you for work, but he will definitely not let you do menial work. If he is interested in you, but I treat you as ordinary workers, wouldn't it offend others?

Carlson had seen Shi Shaoming's kindness to them last night. Among all the Czechs, they were the only two who signed those two high-paying contracts.

If it weren't for the boss's instruction, would Director Shi have done this?

She is the boss’s absolute confidant!

Otherwise, Carlson wouldn't have waited here specifically to tell them what to do.

Yelinqinwa thought differently from her sister. She asked, "Mr. Carlson, you said the director has already started working?"

"That's right." Carlson said, "We got up at six o'clock. The boss said that he wanted to see if the appearance of the Czech Republic in the morning matched with some scenes in the book, so he took some people to check it out after dinner. "

"Oh!" Ye Linqinwa poked her sister, "Sister, eat quickly, don't keep the director waiting, we are working people!"

"Okay." Hatekova said as she hurriedly ate, "Mr. Carlson, don't you want to eat?"

"I'm eating with the boss, so I have to go over first. You guys can eat slowly, don't be in a hurry." Carlson hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to remind you here, although the boss is very busy on weekdays. He is gentle, but at work, he is very strict and inhumane. You must cheer up and not slack off, otherwise you will be scolded."

"thank you!"

Hajiekova's face moved, and her words of thanks came from the bottom of her heart.

The two sisters finished their breakfast quickly, turned around and ran towards the construction street a few hundred meters away.

In the middle of the street, they saw Yin Jun surrounded by a group of people.

Yin Jun was wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans and was looking around.

When the two women crowded around Yin Jun, they heard Yin Jun talking to Carlson.

"The width of the street is enough, but the styles are too unified. Let them put more effort into decoration." Yin Jun said, "In addition, the degree of oldness is still not enough, so that people can tell that they are new at a glance. Yes, we have to do it again.”

"Yes, I understand."

"Hurry up and take your time. Although we still have a lot of exterior scenes, not just in this place, but at least half of the scenes are in the neighborhood. It won't work if we don't do it well." Yin Jun said, "Let them hire more people. If that doesn’t work, just take those old photos and drawings and let them follow them!”

"yes!"

Next, Yin Jun turned around and warned the people from Xiangjiang next to him.

When Yin Jun spoke, there was no smile on his face, which made the two sisters feel that he was much more serious and majestic.

Thinking of Carlson's instructions just now, the two sisters felt a little more in awe of Yin Jun.
