Chapter 182 Don't let an actor handle it
Cui Xi said to the other end of the phone: "Hey! Uncle, let me tell you something.
Didn’t you ask me to be the costume designer for this drama starring Gu Ruoxi?
Now, Gu Ruoxi and I have fallen out."
Her producer uncle Huang Dalin was surprised.
"What happened?"
Cui Qian explained everything to Huang Dalin in detail. Of course, she added some fuel and jealousy in the process.
After hearing her complaints, Huang Dalin said to Cui Qian seriously: "Cui Qian, I already know the situation you mentioned.
The director has told me the complete story.
In fact, there is no need to make this matter such a big deal.
We invited Gu Ruoxi over and over again and finally got her to star in this drama. This drama would definitely not work without her.
I hope you understand this."
Cui Xi said angrily: "Uncle, whose position are you speaking from now?
I am your niece!
Don't forget, it was my mother who worked three jobs every day to support your studies, so that you had the opportunity to go to college and become a producer.
Besides, my dad invested a lot in this drama, you have to understand!"
Faced with his niece's aggressiveness, Huang Dalin said helplessly: "I didn't say, I won't help you think about things from your standpoint.
You are also a costume designer in the industry, and it is always bad to fall out with an actor.
I’m not thinking about whether this matter can be resolved properly.”
Cui Qian said in a strong tone: "If she insists on using the costume designed by the person she found, instead of using Master Sun's, I will serve her.
It's that simple, there's no room for maneuver."
She added a few words, "Uncle, as you know, Master Sun is my idol, and I have tried every means to have a chance to cooperate with Master Sun.
It took a lot of effort to get this rare opportunity. Master Sun did not agree to cooperate with others casually.
After this cooperation experience, I will be able to make my own name and set up my own clothing brand in the future.
This move is very important to me.
Gu Ruoxi is not asking for Master Sun's costume, but she is ruining my career!"
Huang Dalin knew that it was difficult to persuade his niece to be stubborn, so he followed her words and said: "The director told me, and now Gu Ruoxi said that she will get the costumes herself, so that the director can rest assured.
However, I think it is impossible for her to put together so many costumes in such a short period of time.
When the quality is not good, we will definitely reject it.
She will definitely come back to beg you. There should be room for maneuver in Master Sun’s costume, so you don’t need to be too angry.”
Tracy burst out laughing.
"I would like to see which costume group in the industry can produce so many costumes for the heroine in such a short period of time.
I guess I have to rent someone else's second-hand costumes. It's a bunch of junk. How can it compare to my fine costumes?
dream!
Uncle, I told you, if the quality of Gu Ruoxi's costume is not good, you can't be soft on her.
You need to know that you and I are family members, and you are on my side.
A big producer can't let an actor dictate it."
Huang Dalin said helplessly: "Okay, okay."
…
In the evening, Gu Ruoxi appeared at Lin Xing's home.
Lin Xing's first sentence was to ask Gu Ruoxi: "I have a friend who is a fan of yours. She wants to come over and see you. Do you mind?"
Gu Ruoxi blinked her eyes, an ordinary action, but she made it cute and cute.
"As long as I'm your friend, I don't mind."
Lin Xing was a little helpless, why was his tone so ambiguous?
He started to send a text message to Li Yinwei.
Last time, Li Yinwei had a fight with him because he didn't tell her about Gu Ruoxi's arrival.
Lin Xing didn't want to be in trouble again.
However, before he did this, he had to ask Gu Ruoxi's opinion first and could not make his own decisions.
After the message was sent, Lin Xing asked curiously: "Didn't you say you would bring your cousin over to get the dress? Why are you the only one here?"
Gu Ruoxi said: "I won't take her with me this time.
Wait a few days, I have something urgent to do with you this time."
Seeing Gu Ruoxi's expression become more solemn, Lin Xing knew that things were definitely not simple.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
Gu Ruoxi slowly told Lin Xing what happened.
What she said was more concise and not as subjective as Tracy's.
However, Lin Xing also knew that Gu Ruoxi was told by a costumer with background to change the costume he made.
Lin Xing smiled faintly.
"Actually, I am just an amateur in making costumes, and I am definitely not as good as the famous masters in the industry.
You don’t have to look out for my sake, just tell the costume designer to use the master’s, and you won’t have to worry so much.”
Gu Ruoxi said solemnly.
"It's not because you made the costume, but it's a matter of principle.
When it comes to a drama, we don't think about how to improve the quality, but rely on relationships and interests to decide many things.
Then you can imagine the quality of this drama."
Lin Xing looked at Gu Ruoxi's serious look, understood what she meant, and felt a little respectful towards her.
He didn't know if other actors would be as obsessed with the perfection of their works as Gu Ruoxi.
But he looked at Gu Ruoxi with admiration.
This woman is not only good-looking, she also has a great work ethic.
Lin Xing did not say any other words of persuasion.
"How do you want me to help you?"
Gu Ruoxi said sincerely.
"I'm here to come to you this time to rescue you.
I know you are very busy in the orchard, so I would like to pick one or two sets of styles that are difficult to find on the market and let you help make them.
I can make as much as I can, and for the rest I will find other costume designers and rent similar styles."
Lin Xing took the notebook handed over by Gu Ruoxi and flipped through it in one go, understanding it clearly.
"You have a total of thirty-eight sets of costumes here, including spring clothes and winter clothes.
In the play, you will be the owner of a clothing store in the later stage, and your dress must be particularly elegant to bring out her role and ensure the quality of the play.
If you rent costumes temporarily, you may not be able to pass the test of the director and producer."
Gu Ruoxi was surprised by Lin Xing's amazing memory. Thinking of this problem, she couldn't help but smile.
"This is all we can do for the time being. Cui Tracy has a tough attitude and wants to force me to get Master Sun's costume. I can't compromise.
Last time I heard you say that the director of the joint transportation factory is now your supervisor Wang Xiaogang.
Do you think he can be of any help?"
Lin Xing nodded and said: "He can support me. There is no problem with the fabrics and materials.
However, the main specialty of the joint transportation factory is not customization, and the customization department is not good at costumes.
I can talk to Xiaogang and see if Master Tang can help.
I’ll try my best to help you get out.”
Gu Ruoxi was extremely grateful.
Lin Xing could refuse her for such an urgent matter.
But he still agreed, which made her feel warm.
"Thank you so much!
I am responsible for this series of clothing. I will pay 1 million for the clothing, so please help me organize it."
When he heard this number, Lin Xing's spirits were lifted.
Originally, he gave up the idea of asking Master Tang to help with some of the costumes.
A costume costs an average of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, but that’s one million. He can earn it, so why not earn it himself?
He only needs to list the styles and sizes, and the rest of the operations are completed by the magic needle.
For accessories and fabrics, let the intermodal purchasing department help.
There hasn't been much going on in the orchard lately, the main focus has been on mugwort.
Ten days was more than enough for him.
"Let's settle it first, I will give you the latest progress then."
Chapter completed!
