Chapter 171 Is the hotel entrance still so lively?
Yi Zhiyuan saw the weather forecast a few days ago, and it said there would be snow today.
Thinking that everyone in the crew had been working around for many days, we simply asked the drama staff to skip two scenes during rehearsals.
Rarely, the crew of "The Legend of Lusha" finished work early in the afternoon.
Song Heming, the veteran actor who plays the villain in the play, has become familiar with the owner of a convenience store near the hotel these days.
I placed an order in advance at a convenience store and asked the store owner to help me bring back a bunch of hot pot ingredients.
The crew finished work today and after everyone returned to the hotel from the set, he ordered Yi Zhiyuan and others to go to his room to use the induction cooker to make hot pot.
It was raining and snowing outside, and the heater was on in the room.
A group of people gathered around the hot pot, chatting while eating, not to mention how happy they were.
But just when everyone's stomachs really couldn't hold it anymore, they were ready to go back to their rooms and have a good sleep.
Yi Zhiyuan's cell phone rang.
Yi Zhiyuan picked up the phone casually, and Xiao Zhao's anxious voice came out from the phone:
"Director Yi is not good, our crew lost two cameras!"
Yi Zhiyuan, who was rubbing his belly, immediately jumped up from his chair and asked in disbelief, "What did you say, the camera was lost?"
Xiao Zhao is in the production team and is usually responsible for managing the equipment.
The studio was too remote and there was no security at all.
Yi Zhiyuan always asked the stage manager to bring some movable equipment back to the hotel for safekeeping.
The crew specially booked a room in the hotel to store these valuable equipment.
Yi Zhiyuan went to see the storage room.
The people who come to live in the town are basically the film crew.
Other crews have already asked the hotel to use rooms to store equipment.
The hotel owner is smart and knows how to do business. I specially took out a room and installed a very advanced electronic lock.
The password was set by the crew themselves, and not even the hotel staff knew it.
Xiao Zhao is usually very careful in his work.
Every time I collect the equipment into the storage room, it is placed neatly. Don’t forget to check the door lock when you go out.
How can you lose something?
Xiao Zhao was so anxious that he almost cried and briefly explained what happened.
"After putting away the equipment in the evening, I made an appointment with several colleagues from the production team to go out for dinner."
After all, I lived in the town for more than a month.
The crew members are all familiar with the local residents, and even Song and Ming are familiar with the convenience store owner.
Not to mention the drama staff who always have to go to the field.
They found all the small restaurants hidden in every corner.
I have been busy with dramas in the past week, and I have been spinning for more than a week.
It was a rare day to finish work early, so naturally they also wanted to go to the Five Zang Temple to perform a tooth ceremony.
It's strange, I don't know if it's telepathy or something.
After Xiao Zhao came back from dinner, he felt a little panicked and suddenly wanted to take a look in the storage room for no reason.
As a result, when he entered the room and turned on the lights, he found that the place where the camera was placed was empty.
He rushed up to check and determined that two cameras were missing.
This camera is Director Yi's treasure and an important asset of the crew.
A staff member like Xiao Zhao has been working on the crew for only half a year, and the money he earns may not be enough to buy a camera.
When he took out his cell phone to call Director Yi, his hands were shaking.
I pressed the wrong key several times in a row and finally got through the call.
Xiao Zhao choked and said, "Director Yi, I'm pretty sure the door was locked when I left."
Even though it was an electronic lock, he was used to pushing and pulling the door again every time he closed it to make sure it was locked.
"The window of the storage room is locked, and the door is also locked. However, the camera just disappeared!"
Yi Zhiyuan was originally persuaded to drink a little wine, but after listening to the phone call, he was already frightened.
The next step is to call the police and contact the hotel owner to check the emergency operation.
The happy and casual atmosphere suddenly took a sharp turn and turned into an anxious and tense police drama.
He really wished he didn't let everyone finish work early today.
Yi Zhiyuan was so anxious that he called the police and sat in the lobby on the first floor of the hotel waiting for the police.
Through the glass door of the lobby, he saw the police car from a distance and rushed towards it immediately.
I recounted the general story.
The police station in this small town used to have no calls for a week.
Since the film and television base was opened, it has become busy.
The police at the police station took it very seriously when they heard that they had lost hundreds of thousands of equipment.
The police officers and leaders on duty drove two cars over to check.
The several police officers who came to answer the call all had gloomy expressions.
The hotel's duty manager responsible for reception. Also followed. Be prepared to cooperate with the investigation.
"These two machines are the most valuable cameras for our crew, and they are not models that can be purchased immediately."
The loss of the camera is not just a matter of the cost of the machine.
This will also delay the filming progress of the crew.
Anyone who knows a little bit about the industry knows that once the crew starts filming, it will burn money every day.
Not to mention anything else, hundreds of people have to spend a lot of money on food, drink and accommodation for a day.
Yi Zhiyuan anxiously begged the police:
"These two cameras are too important to our crew. Please help us recover them as soon as possible, police comrades."
Yi Zhiyuan's mind is a little confused now.
He thought for a moment that the weather was bad today, and the things stolen by the thief might not be able to be delivered immediately. Maybe if you hurry up, you can get your stuff back.
After a while, I couldn't help but already started to register.
If the camera couldn't catch up tonight, could he first transfer a machine from one of his friend's crews to support it?
Amidst all the chaos and worries, Yi Zhiyuan suddenly heard a clear male voice.
"Director Yi, have our crew's machines been lost? Sister Tang and I picked up two of them on the way back."
"How about you guys come and see if it's these two?"
When the people in the circle heard this voice, they all turned their heads.
When Zhan Haiyang and Xiao Tang got off the car and entered the hotel, the snowflakes on their coats had been heated by the heater in the lobby.
There was still some mottled dampness on the coat.
At first glance, it looked like he had just come back from outside.
what?
Zhan Haiyang said that he and his assistant Xiao Tang saw the camera they lost on the way back?
How can there be such a coincidence in the world!
Yi Zhiyuan questioned whether he was too anxious and had auditory hallucinations.
Among the group of people, Xiao Zhao, the stage manager, reacted the fastest.
He rushed to Zhan Haiyang's side in one stride.
"Teacher Zhan, did you pick up the camera?"
"Where did you pick it up? Take me to see it quickly!"
Zhan Haiyang pointed to the parking lot outside, "The camera is in my car."
A group of people followed Zhan Haiyang out of the hotel lobby with an extremely unreal feeling.
