Wiz Cool C, were you the talent or a crew member?

I carry a Knirps when it rains. Nice sturdy shaft. It's the best thing about the rain.

How strong are these 'safe' umbrellas? And how much?

The lady told me they aren’t on the market yet, but will be between one hundred and two hundred rmb. The wholesale price will be around 50rmb. They pretty sturdy, with several different designs Thinking of selling them here Gene?

Actor of course, they wouldn’t hire a foreigner here to do that behind the scenes camera stuff. It is a crappy job in china they work really long days low pay, except the director he is getting paid that is his BMW..

Not surprised. Unfortunately, film production work is not all that glamorous here in the US either. People who think film crews and actors just spend a few hours on the weekend with a camera making bloopers, eating craft, and talking about film theories need to be kicked in the face.

That’s word to the mother my brother. This Monday I had another job playing the “Lao Bon” boss, and asked the agent lady how much these camera/lighting guys make. She told me they make about 150rmb a day sometimes working 15 hour days. 150rmb is not very low pay[the actors get paid two hundred an hour by the way]an office guy can make about 200 a day., but 12 15 hour days in a dark dirty set, tough life.94139414[ATTACH]9415[/ATTACH

I guess you need to go find out if you got the sand and talent. I doubt it but we will never know unless you do it. Fact is HE IS DOING IT and you do nothing but bash generally. And he should get better as time goes on. I guess if he was Jackie Chan you would kiss his feet.

Regardless if he is liked or not is of no concern to me. He is better than us in his arena. He may not be the best but he is there doing.

And yes, what he is doing does take real courage.

Thank you Boxerbilly for the compliment and praise. Yes those are original rap songs. I began rapping back in the mid 80s. The only white rapper I knew of that rapped before me was MC Serch who later made a few albums under the group 3rd Bass. I never made it in the rap music business obviously [although I did at least have one song make it to the table for a vote at MCA records, they passed it up however]. I am now fortunate enough to be living my second dream, which is to live and train in Asia as well as do acting and writing. I am now currently writing a book, and have a film crew coming from Sweden next month to do a documentary about my life and training in China. It is called coincidently enough [Living The dream.]
