094 [General Ledger]
Xia Tian and Wang Xiaoxian were hiding in the room and making out intimately, not being wary of Chen Yixin’s sudden break in. Wang Xiaoxian’s face turned red with shame, and hurriedly broke free from Xia Tian’s arms, with his back facing the two of them and did not dare to look back.m. Lewen Mobile Network
"Go! We didn't do anything, as for this kind of deer wise man." Xia Tian saw that her neck was red with embarrassment, and couldn't help but raise a face and scold him.
"Yes, I did not do anything." Chen Yixin also smiled embarrassedly.
"By the way, you have something to ask me for, right? Let's go out and talk." Xia Tian said again, then led Chen Yixin out.
"Brother Tian, Zhong Zhentao said he would pay the final payment for him today, otherwise he would not take any more photos today." After leaving, Chen Yixin immediately reported.
In Hong Kong, actors’ pay is generally divided into three steps.
Before joining the group, pay a deposit; after joining the group, pay a pay; before completing the filming, settle the final payment. Of course, if the film company is stronger and the actors are weaker, the final payment may be delayed until the movie is released, or even directly dispelled the matter.
Zhong Zhentao has received two paychecks, and the movie is about to be completed, so he wants to pay off the final payment.
"Remember what he called before and prepare the bill." Xia Tian rubbed his hands and smiled excitedly, "It's time for him to toss us for so many days, and now it's finally time to settle the score with him."
"The day for revenge is here!" Chen Yixin also looked excited.
These days, he is the one who helps Zhong Zhentao run errands to buy things, and he is often called to buy things in the middle of the night. In addition to food and wine, he even asks him to buy clothes, shoes, socks, underwear, underwear, underwear, underwear, and underwear. He treats him as a Filipino maid.
Now it was finally time to "repay" him. Chen Yixin smiled wickedly and took out a notebook from his pocket. The memories were full of things that Zhong Zhentao called.
...
When the two of them arrived at the dressing room, they saw Zhong Zhentao shouting loudly, "If you don't put on makeup, don't put on makeup, and if you don't pay off the final payment today, I won't enter the venue, and I'll say it's okay to be a big deal."
"Before the movie is finished, it is a rule to settle the final payment. Tell me, I didn't ask for a penny more." He shouted loudly, attracting countless people to watch here.
"Brother B, why are you so excited? What a big deal?" Xia Tian and Chen Yixin squeezed into the crowd and came to Zhong Zhentao and said.
"Ah Tian, you're here just in time. Our drama will be finished tomorrow. Should I settle my final payment?" As soon as Xia Tian came, Zhong Zhentao immediately asked him with a stern face.
"Of course, it is a rule to settle the final payment before the completion of the filming, and no one can break it." Xia Tian agreed.
Hearing him say this, a chrysanthemum suddenly burst out on Zhong Zhentao's face, "Okay, Ah Tian. I saw early in the morning that you are a rule-abiding person, and you did not let me see it wrong."
"Thank you Brother B for your praise." He smiled slightly, then turned around and ordered. "Yi Xin, let's see how much money you should pay Brother B."
Chen Yixin took out the notebook he had prepared long ago and glanced seriously, "Brother Tian, Brother B still owes us 80,000 Hong Kong dollars."
"Okay, Brother B, you heard it all. Do you think you will give this 80,000 yuan now, or will we calculate interest for you?" Xia Tian smiled and said to Zhong Zhentao.
He saw his face full of surprise and confusion, and it took him a long time to recover. "What are you talking about? You owed me the pay, why is it that I owe you money again now?!" He shouted loudly.
The onlookers were also puzzled. But everyone also knew that a good show was about to happen.
"Brother b. Don't be excited. We remember every note. Let's take a look at it and see if we ask for a price all over the place." Xia Tian said with a smile.
Chen Yixin nodded and read it out loud.
"On the night of November 25, there were ten squash pigeons in Shatian, 800 yuan.
At 12:30 noon on November 26, a French meal was served, a bottle of Rentouma Foreign Wine, 4,000 yuan.
...
At 3:00 pm on December 14th, a set of ck underwear, toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, for 200 yuan.
...
Total of 246,700 yuan.”
I heard that Zhong Zhentao had eaten so much during filming, even having underwear, toothpaste and toothbrush, which made the audience amazed.
"Wait, shouldn't you invite me these things?" Zhong Zhentao's face became darker and darker as he heard it. Finally, he couldn't help but shout.
"Brother, stop kidding. If you join the group to film, I will pay you a salary. Why should I still provide you with a lot of food and drink? Even my underwear and toiletries are required? To be honest, there is no such rule in this world, right?" Xia Tian retorted.
"You..." Zhong Zhentao knew that he had been fooled by others when he heard him say this.
Xia Tian's indeed never said that he would pay the bill, but he was deceived by his sincerity. He thought that he was giving him free food, drink and fun to stabilize himself.
When he thought of these delicious food and wine, he finally paid for it himself. Zhong Zhentao was angry and hated, wishing he could not hold his throat and vomit out all the food he had eaten before.
"Let's talk, is this the reason?" Xia Tian ignored Zhong Zhentao and asked with a smile to everyone.
"That's right. Even the underwear is a crew that pays the bill. I'm so poor."
"Oh, I heard that he was stingy and went to his girlfriend's house to visit and only brought a box of snacks. He even ate them all by himself. It's really the best."
"I'm still a big star. It turns out that I can do it so well. I have to buy toothpaste and toothbrushes for the crew. I'm so smart."
Everyone's speech was heard in Zhong Zhentao's ears, causing him to burst into the head of his head and smoke from his seven orifices.
"You bastard, you dare to insult me. I will never give this money." Zhong Zhentao was angry and pointed at Xia Tian and cursed loudly.
"Brother b, before saying this, you'd better think clearly. It doesn't matter whether you give me the money or not. Anyway, the money is not mine, but what you owe Mr. Xiang. You should also be very clear about what his identity is, without me saying it." Xia Tian sneered.
After hearing this, Zhong Zhentao immediately poured his head like a basin of ice water, and his heart was cold.
Xiang Huasheng is the boss of the old Yian. Ultimate loans are his own business. If you owe them money, don’t try to avoid it. The sooner you pay it off, the better. Otherwise, you will get the profit and you will finish it one day.
"Okay, I'll pay it back, I'll pay it back." Zhong Zhentao said helplessly, "Wait, there's something wrong with your account. Ten Shatian squash pigeons can cost at most 400 yuan, why should I charge me 800 yuan?" He suddenly said excitedly again.
I was so confused by Xia Tian's words just now that he suddenly woke up.
"Of course. You have to pay tips when you go to a hotel for dinner. My brother is also an actor, and I work hard and hard for you. Wouldn't you be able to charge you a commission?" Xia Tian said with a serene statement.
Hearing his words so righteous, it seemed to be his fault. Zhong Zhentao was so angry that he almost spit out an old blood, and his face turned pale and he suddenly became bad.
Fortunately, he had several followers who supported him in time, otherwise he would have to fall to the ground.
"Oh, by the way, I have to remind you. You still haven't filmed a few scenes, remember to enter on time. If the movie is postponed due to your reasons, then you will be responsible. The compensation will be more than 80,000 yuan." Xia Tian pointed at him and said.
When Zhong Zhentao heard this, he spat a mouthful of blood on the spot and fainted.
When the followers saw him, they rushed him to the hospital with all their might.
"Tsk, even the Taoist master is so good, you dare to fight with me!" Xia Tian looked at his desolate look and cursed disdainfully.
...
The incident of Xia Tian’s trick to punish Zhong Zhentao soon spread throughout Shaw Brothers Cinema, and for a time, people knew his name.
Zhong Zhentao's reputation at Shaw Brothers is not very good. One is that he is stingy and stingy. Although he is a big star, he never treats guests, let alone takes advantage of him. The other is that he is a man of many things, and he is picky and often causes trouble for others, so people naturally don't like him.
Now when I heard that he was being spoiled, everyone ran around and told me, which was a joke.
The crew of "The Ghostly Horse" is also very lively. People come to visit the set from time to time, hoping to see how sacred the director of Xia Tian is, who can actually subdue Zhong Zhentao.
When everyone saw that he was so young and talented, they were surprised that his gossip became more and more powerful, and the rumors became more and more exaggerated. They made Xia Tian a genius who was in the sky and not underground, and was rarely seen in a century. They were comparable to the twelve-year-old prime minister in ancient times, which made Xia Tian laugh and cry after hearing it.
But no matter what, he has become a celebrity at Shaw Cinema, and his influence is gradually spreading.
...
"A Tian, you're doing well. You're so smart. It's so wonderful to come up with this way to punish him!" Xiang Huasheng praised with a smile, "I didn't like that Zhong Zhentao for a long time and wanted to deal with him. You really gave me a vent this time."
"Thank you Mr. Xiang for your praise. Actually, I am a fox and a tiger. Without Mr. Xiang, you are under the squad, how could Zhong Zhentao give me face?" Xia Tian smiled.
The reason why Zhong Zhentao was willing to pay back the money was because he was worried that Xiang Huasheng would cause trouble for him. Xia Tian knew this very well, so he would not be blindly confident, thinking that if he punished Zhong Zhentao, he would be so great.
When Xiang Huasheng heard what he said, he couldn't help but praise him secretly. It is really amazing that a person can still recognize himself when he is in his glory and not lose his direction.
"By the way, Zhong Zhentao has paid back 80,000 yuan, and you deserve this 125,000 yuan." Xiang Huasheng smiled and took out an envelope and said.
If it weren't for Xia Tian, they would have to pay Zhong Zhentao more than 100,000 yuan, but now they have earned more than 100,000 yuan.
"Mr. Xiang, why are you so embarrassed?" Xia Tian waved his hand with a smile.
"Please accept it. You made this money with a plan, so of course it should be given to you." Xiang Huasheng smiled. (To be continued.)
