Chapter 451 A koi the size of a blue whale
At this moment, Qi Lin naturally didn't know that the director was thinking about him again. He just got off the plane at this moment, and Director Chad actually came to the airport to pick him up. The two had just met, and Director Chad gave him a big hug.
"Hahaha, Qi! Long time no see!"
Qi Lin also smiled and patted the other party's back and said, "Yeah, long time no see Qi!"
"How is the script?"
"Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem!"
Qi Lin agreed with a smile, and Director Chad looked over Qi Lin to everyone in Qi's class.
This time, the martial arts instructor of "John Wick" has been handed over to Qi Jiaban.
Speaking of which, the current Qijiaban has already gained a little reputation in the industry, and many crews have sent out invitations.
The lineup of the Qi family class has also grown a bit, and Wang Yi and Xiao Wu have been able to take charge of their own, leading the team out as martial arts instructors.
Nowadays, the best martial arts team in the industry is of course the Baye team, but not everyone can afford to invite Baye.
The rest are the Hong family class and the Long family class. The Hong family class is fine, but the Long family class spends most of their time working for Brother Fang Long, and there are not many opportunities to go out to be martial arts instructors.
As for the other teams of Jia Dan and others, most of them are martial arts instructors in China, but they are rarely invited to foreign film crews.
And they are not as competitive as Qijiaban, because Qijiaban is very young, everyone is at the age of acting and playing, and the price is not high, which is very important.
As you get older and your body functions degenerate, you won’t be able to perform some actions. Even if you can perform them, you will face great danger. The crew is also afraid of accidents.
It is more important that the quotation is low. After all, no matter what you do now, you should pay attention to the cost performance. The quality between the two is almost the same, but the price difference is 10%.
Facts have proved that Qi Lin's plan to form the Qi Family Class was extremely wise.
Go back to the hotel and rest for the night. Early the next morning, Director Chad's assistant took Qi Jiaban to the crew to familiarize themselves with the equipment.
Qi Lin and Wang Xiaohua went to have a meal with investors. As Qi Lin became more and more popular, there were more and more such dinners.
Qi Lin is not easy to refuse, after all, the other party is the sponsor.
Fortunately, they also knew that Qi Lin couldn't drink, and they didn't force him, but the autograph and group photo were obviously indispensable.
Two days later, on February 25th, the crew of "John Wick" officially started!
At least half of the on-site staff are old faces. Everyone has had cooperation experience before, and the tacit understanding is not bad, so the shooting progress is very fast.
Originally, according to the director’s schedule, it was enough to shoot three scenes in one morning, but Qi Lin’s shooting was too smooth, and he filmed four scenes in one morning. If the director didn’t stop him, he might have finished filming the fifth scene.
While waiting for the noon break, Director Chad was a little speechless.
"I think this world will definitely be occupied by you Chinese people in the future."
Qi Lin was a little confused when he heard the words, and asked while eating his own lunch.
"Occupied by us? Why?"
"Because you guys are too scary!"
Qi Lin was even more confused when he heard the words. He didn't understand why Director Chad said that.
"I said your will is terrible! I heard that your students have to go to class before seven o'clock in the morning and finish school after nine o'clock in the evening. "
“There are people who go to work at 7 o’clock in the morning, but they have to get up at 5 o’clock to practice the piano for two hours!”
Director Chad couldn't help but sighed when he said this: "You can give everything for your own goals and never care about suffering, so I think you are too scary!"
“In our place, almost no one is willing to work overtime, even if the overtime pay is high.”
"But in China, I heard that working overtime is the norm, and everyone has become accustomed to it."
"To be honest, in the circle of Hollywood directors, many people call me a workaholic, but after meeting you, I realized that if I am a workaholic, then you are born for work!"
Qi Lin smiled and waved his hands after hearing this: "It's too exaggerated, too exaggerated."
Unexpectedly, Director Chad said in a particularly stern tone: "No, no, no, it's not an exaggeration at all! Qi, I'm serious! Do you know that when I was filming a movie before, I was very happy to be able to complete the daily shooting volume? gone."
"But after working with you, we exceed our mission every day!"
Qi Lin smiled and waved his hands and said: "Time is precious, and it is good for everyone to finish shooting early."
Director Chad took a bite of the hamburger and said, "I think you should slow down your pace of life appropriately. After all, you can never finish your work, especially if you are still so young."
"I don't think your life should be spent in the crew every day. You can go climbing, travel, look at the scenery, or even go to a nightclub to meet two beautiful girls."
"In this way, at least when you get old, you can have a few things worth remembering, right?"
"You're a young billionaire, trust me, you'll be in demand!"
Qi Lin smiled after hearing this, with a piece of beef stuffed in his mouth, he said while chewing.
"Compared with going to nightclubs, I prefer filming to make money!"
Director Chad laughed after hearing this: "I have to say, you Chinese people are too obsessed with money. I heard that in your China, there are gods who specialize in blessing people to make money, right?"
Qi Lin nodded slowly, and Director Chad said in surprise.
"Then after the New Year, is it true that everyone says they wish you a fortune?"
"No, it should be Gong Xi Fa Cai! Forget it, that's what it means."
Director Chad had a look of disbelief, he couldn't imagine what it would be like to wish you a fortune after meeting everyone!
Moreover, there are gods who specialize in blessing people to get rich, which is unimaginable.
Qi Lin smiled when he saw this: "We have a vast land and abundant resources in China. We don't care about idleness!"
Qi Lin officially resumed work here, and was filming in the crew every day. In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed, and the box office results in China were announced.
"Charlotte Annoyance" 3.3 billion!
"Monster Hunt" 3.2 billion!
"The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" 250 million!
"Charlotte Annoyance" became the box office king of the Spring Festival stalls with a lead of 100 million!
The audience didn't have much reaction to this, after all, it was Qi Lin, Qi Lin, the double-gold actor of the same year! What happened to his movie with a box office of 3.3 billion? it's common!
But in the industry, this data almost caused an earthquake!
A film with an investment of less than 50 million yuan has won a box office of 3.3 billion yuan!
Can this still be called a movie koi? Whose koi can have such an exaggerated effect! Unless that koi can grow to the size of a blue whale! !
