Chapter 24: What a waste

Qin Hongfei said: “If I fix it, how about you let my sister play a role in your film?”

The director looked at her and said: “Your sister is…”

Qin Hongfei stretched out her hand to pull Qin Fei out. Such a good opportunity, why are you hiding? She really wanted to beat her!

The redness and swelling on Qin Fei’s face hadn’t faded yet, and the director couldn’t possibly remember her, but he had heard about the loan sharking incident.

He said nonchalantly: “You have to fix it first. After that, let alone give her a role. From now on, I will give her a role in all my films.” He promised to blurt it out because he felt that the machine might not be repairable. After all, it had been repaired fifty or sixty times to save money!

After receiving the promise, Qin Hongfei didn’t care what others thought. She walked up and said to the maintenance master: “I’ll borrow the tools.”

This filming equipment was very old.

The motherboard inside was probably changed again and again! But because it was old equipment, money was one thing, and feelings were another, so the director was reluctant to exchange it.

Qin Hongfei has never practiced these before, but as soon as she got started, she automatically dismantled the machine! This was an all-in-one machine. The motherboard has burned out, and the wires have melted due to long-term operation. The wires on the motherboard were very troublesome. Non-professionals cannot understand them. Even professionals, once the wires were burned out, it would be useless if they don’t know where the wire was installed, and the motherboard was connected to them!

After making a judgment, Qin Hongfei found a section of wire and cut it off. She found a new section and soldered it with electricity.

The maintenance master next to him saw this operation and his eyes widened: “Can it still be done like this?”

Director Shan was nervous: “What are you doing?! Did she break it?”

The maintenance master said: “It’s not that…it’s like this. Generally, not even an old professional repairman don’t dare to do this. Little girl, your family specializes in this business?”

Qin Hongfei said no, “This is my first time doing it, but this is okay, it’s not difficult at all.”

Director Shan: “……”

What?

First time doing it?

It’s not difficult?

Forget it, it’s already broken.

He was ready to be a little grandson and apologize to the actress. However, after Qin Hongfei connected the wires, she began to install the motherboard and other parts back one after another, and turned it on.

The machine that was originally burned out lit up with a bang.

The maintenance master was surprised: “It’s repaired.”

Director Shan was also excited, “What a god!”

He tried it and found that it was indeed good, and he could continue to use it.

Suddenly he beamed with joy: “Quick, go notify the others to continue filming.” There was no need to be a grandson, and there was no need to change actors.

Qin Fei, who was nervous just now, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Duoduo’s smile froze a little: “It’s just a blind cat pretending to be a dead mouse.”

Qin Hongfei didn’t care about the other voices. She just looked at the excited director and said, “Director, do you still remember what you promised me just now?”

Director Shan was embarrassed to say that he didn’t remember. He said it like ten minutes ago, how could he have forgotten about it? He doesn’t have Alzheimer’s disease. Looking at Qin Fei’s image, he couldn’t help but ask, “What school did you graduate from.”

Qin Fei said sheepishly: “I didn’t go to acting school, I just graduated from junior high school.”

Director Shan: “……”

It doesn’t matter whether she just graduated from junior high school as long as her acting skills were good.

“What skills do you have? For example, dancing or something like that…”

“I can’t do either.”

Director Shan’s smile froze, and he suddenly wanted to be an old man!

What a waste!

This was difficult to handle. Even if he can rely on his superb shooting skills to make people not feel that the leading actor was a waste, she can’t get a stand-in even if they don’t know anything: “You can’t do anything…”

Qin Hongfei knew the director’s dilemma and said, “Director, my sister’s acting skills can be used in other films. She had a walk-on role here before, but she lost it because of a misunderstanding…”
