Chapter 444： Spring Festival

Chapter 444 Spring Festival

This sudden sentence made Qi Lin a little confused, and thought to himself, didn't I just perform? Does this make me the hero? Is it a little too sloppy?

Then he looked at the fruit knife in his hand, and hurriedly said.

"Director, I didn't mean to threaten you, you understand."

Director Doug nodded with a smile and said, "Of course I know this is your performance. To be honest, I was amazed by the look in your eyes just now. I really think this role suits you very well."

Qi Lin turned his head to look at Wang Xiaohua. At this moment, Wang Xiaohua was somewhat confused. He didn't expect that the so-called audition would be so easy.

But after years of acting as an agent, she subconsciously asked: "What about the salary?"

Qi Lin immediately shut up when he heard the words, he believed that Wang Xiaohua could definitely handle the rest.

After talking for nearly an hour, the two parties finally finalized the contract.

20 million US dollars, plus 10% of the box office share!

This condition is the same as Qi Lin's price for shooting "John Wick", and the other party didn't want to accept it at first, especially for the final 10% box office share.

But under Wang Xiaohua's three-inch tongue, she finally convinced the other party.

And two consecutive dramas started with 20 million US dollars, which indirectly stabilized Qi Lin's worth.

In the future, if you come to Qi Lin to make a film, if the price is less than this price, you can hardly think about it, unless the script is so good that you can know it will win an award.

For the rest, if it is lower than this price, then there is no need to consider it at all.

In terms of salary alone, Qi Lin is already an out-and-out first-line star. Although he is not the top one, he can still be ranked in the top 100.

But in terms of status, Qi Lin is far behind.

After the two parties negotiated and signed the contract, the producer introduced Qi Lin to the investors. After dinner, everyone got to know each other.

It wasn't until this time that Qi Lin knew that Pete was originally chosen by director Doug for this movie!

On the one hand, it is because Pete has a schedule next year, and on the other hand, Director Doug admires him very much, and even thinks that this role is tailor-made for him.

As a result, the investors decided to choose Qi Lin after considering the Huaxia market and Pete's black material. Finally, under the pressure of the investors, Qi Lin got this audition!

This gave Qi Lin a very strange feeling. He never thought that he would become a member of the management one day!

After the dinner, Qi Lin and his party returned to the hotel to rest.

Waiting until the next morning, Morgan in a neat suit appeared in the hotel.

"Dear boss, long time no see."

Morgan gave Qi Lin a hug as soon as he came up, Qi Lin smiled and patted the other party's back. After a while, Morgan gained weight again.

I don’t know if it’s because white men are prone to obesity.

Several people came to the restaurant to have breakfast together, and Morgan softly reported the situation to Qi Lin and Wang Xiaohua during this period.

"Boss, your performance in "Deadly Cradle" is really amazing, especially the shocking jump! Since that action was made public, no less than ten directors have called me, hoping to contact you."

"It's a pity, except for Director Doug this time, the rest of the directors have a mediocre reputation, and they are all small directors, not well-known."

Morgan talked eloquently, and now his interests have been completely tied to Qi Lin. If Qi Lin develops well, he will earn more, so naturally he cares more than anyone else.

Qi Lin is also noncommittal about this. After all, judging from his current situation, if it is a movie with a small investment and a small director, it doesn't mean much to him. Invest in making movies.

After several people had breakfast together, Qi Lin led the team to the airport, preparing to return to Huaxia.

No matter what, we still have to spend the Spring Festival at home.

In a blink of an eye, the time has come to the end of January, approaching the Spring Festival.

The competition for the Spring Festival is also in full swing. There are three movies released on the first day of the Lunar New Year alone!

Among them, the most popular one is Qi Lin's "Charlotte Annoyance"!

After all, Qi Lin's popularity is too high now. In the same year, he was a double-gold actor, and this title alone cannot be imitated by others.

The second film is a big production, "Monster Hunt", which is known as a domestic special effects blockbuster!

To say that this movie is actually quite tortuous, after hard work, it is being edited, but because the male lead made a mistake, he became a bad actor, and the movie could not be released.

Forced into desperation, the investor changed roles urgently, and filmed again in a daze!

The third film is not easy, although it is not considered a big production, and the protagonists are all newcomers, but it can't stand the director!

"The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" by Zhang Guoshi!

These three movies are all released on the first day of the Lunar New Year!

To be honest, Wang Xiaohua was a little scared when she heard about the other two movies.

But the publicity has been publicized, and the date cannot be changed, otherwise people will know that they are afraid of it?

And some movies that were originally planned to be released during the Spring Festival, after seeing these three movies, most of them have changed their release time.

If you can't delay it, you can postpone it. The most ruthless one has been delayed until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

You must know that whether it is summer, National Day, or Spring Festival, the competition is fierce because students are on vacation.

Students account for nearly 40% of today's moviegoers, which is a terrifying statistic, so whenever students are on vacation, the competition is often the fiercest.

And it will be released after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, so there is almost no advantage.

But even that is better than competing with these three movies!

When gods fight, mortals suffer.

They can't stand the aftermath alone.

Qi Lin and Wang Xiaohua were also surprisingly nervous.

After all, this movie determines the future development direction of the studio!

If the box office hits the market, it will take at least two years of precipitation before Wang Xiaohua will consider continuing to make movies.

And in the past two years, who knows what accidents will happen?

The time came to the New Year’s Eve, and all the families celebrated the Spring Festival together. The family ate dumplings and rice cakes, watched the Spring Festival Gala, and thanked for the hard work of the year.

"The dumplings with green pepper meat are still delicious."

Qi Lin's chopsticks flew like flying, his cheeks bulging from eating.

Mother Wang Ping laughed after hearing Qi Lin's words: "Eat more if it tastes good, there are still two plates, enough."

Qi Lin nodded again and again, watching the Spring Festival Gala sketch while eating.

"son."

"What's the matter, mom?"

"How are you and Xiaoxue? Xiaoxue hasn't come to our house for a while."

Qi Lin was startled when he heard this, and shook his head after thinking about it.

"Maybe she's busy, I haven't seen her for a long time."

Father coughed lightly after hearing this and said, "Son, money can never be earned. You should cherish the people in front of you. You must cherish it."
