The audience isn't stupid. Even if the dilapidated building is repainted and decorated, it won't shake off its eerie atmosphere, and the resulting filming effect will definitely not be very good.
“Director Lan, this house is so unique, it must cost several hundred yuan to rent a day, right? Why don’t you give me the money and I’ll ask around among my friends. I’m sure I can find a better place to rent in the suburbs.” Gu Xuan knew Mu Chuchu well; she wasn’t someone who could tolerate being wronged. She was worried that Mu Chuchu might quit, and then no one would be willing to give them scripts in the future.
Lan Hai said with difficulty, "There is no rent in our budget. This house was left to us by our family a long time ago and has been abandoned. We don't need to pay rent, so we came here to film."
Hearing this, Mu Chuchu felt so heartbroken that she almost cried.
Is this a movie shoot? Or is it a place to suffer?
Mu Chuchu isn't incapable of enduring hardship, but filming in such a place would definitely affect the filming results.
Just then, the costume and prop staff arrived, carrying several boxes with the openings wide open. Inside were all the popular clothes from Taobao, both men's and women's, made of cheap fabric, clearly from street vendors.
The male lead is supposed to be a rich young master, worth hundreds of millions, how could he possibly wear cheap clothes from street stalls! As soon as this show came out, viewers didn't even wait to see the plot before complaining about the costumes and props!
"Director Lan, call your men and come with me. I'll take you to another filming location." Mu Chuchu took a deep breath, then strode forward.
Lan Hai, a devoted fan of Mu Chuchu, was incredibly obedient. He immediately gathered his men, took all his possessions, and followed Mu Chuchu away from the desolate mountain, all the way back to Jinhai City.
An hour later, Mu Chuchu led Lan Hai and the others to a high-end duplex apartment in the city center. The building had 36 floors, with each apartment occupying two floors, and there were only 18 households in total. It was located in a prime location in Jinhai City, where the property prices had already skyrocketed, and the daily rent was at least several thousand RMB.
After Mu Chuchu led everyone to the basement to park the car, she swiped her card to enter the elevator and went up to the top floor, which was located on the eighteenth floor.
After opening the door with the password, Mu Chuchu changed her shoes, led everyone inside, and pulled Lan Hai to look at the simply yet luxuriously decorated postmodern duplex apartment. She asked, "Director Lan, do you think it's okay for us to film here?"
"Of course it's great! This is exactly the place I imagined the male lead would live in." Through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, Lan Hai could even take in the entire view of Jinhai City, and felt even more strongly that this was the most suitable location for filming!
However, after her initial excitement subsided, Lan Hai calmed down and said, "But I can't afford the rent..."
"No need to pay rent." Mu Chuchu laughed ruthlessly. "Because this is an apartment under my name, I can give it to whoever I want. In addition, I've covered the costumes and props for the male and female leads of this drama. We can use the clothes that are already in this house."
After saying that, Mu Chuchu calmly walked into the apartment's open-plan, super-large kitchen under everyone's astonished gazes and poured water for everyone.
Everyone has heard of people bringing their own investment to a production team, but this is the first time they've seen someone like Mu Chuchu bring her own house to the team.
No wonder she's the heiress of the Mu Group, she's incredibly generous!
"I've seen what it means to be a nouveau riche, what it means to be outrageously wealthy. I've seen it all today." Gu Xuan's lips twitched. She was the first to react and quickly told Lan Hai to contact the other actors so they could come to the apartment to film together.
