Chapter 561 Total box office
Qi Lin naturally doesn't know what happened to the Qi family.
After returning from Qi's house, Qi Lin put his energy into the script.
Next year, he will play the role of a gangster twice. The time is getting closer, and he has to prepare.
On this day, Qi Lin had just finished rehearsal and returned to the hotel when he saw He Jiaxin walking over with Hong Ming.
Seeing this, Qi Lin smiled and said, "Brother Hong, is the filming over?"
Hong Ming nodded with a smile: "Well, the last few scenes were filmed in Yanjing, and it's almost Chinese New Year, so I just wanted to see you before going home."
The gratitude in Hong Ming's words is undisguised, who doesn't know that Qi Lin is in full bloom now!
And their studio's first big-investment movie reserved a place for themselves, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is kindness!
Hong Ming also knew that all of this was due to his father's kindness when Qi Lin was just starting out.
Qi Lin and the others walked into the elevator with a smile, and Qi Lin asked.
"How is Uncle Hong?"
"Fortunately, you know how hard it is to practice martial arts in old age. It is inevitable that there will be some injuries when you are old."
Qi Lin nodded, the martial arts of that era were indeed worked out with all their might.
Especially in many dangerous actions, there is no protection at all!
In the words of a senior at the time, a building as high as three or four floors, with a newspaper under it, the director told you to dance, you have to jump!
It can be seen how dangerous martial artists were at that time.
After waiting for a few people to come to Qi Lin's room, Qi Lin smiled.
"The role reserved for Brother Hong this time is not a tall one, you have to be prepared."
"Hey, are you an actor, you should be brave enough to challenge yourself and try different roles!"
Qi Lin was relieved after hearing this and said: "Brother Hong, the role you want to play is Hua Zirong, a person who relies on his sister-in-law to kill the eldest brother."
Hong Ming raised his eyebrows, but then realized, don’t be silly, the movie is called "Chasing the Dragon"! How many positive characters can there be in it?
Besides, this is Qi Lin's movie, to be able to get a role here, countless people are already envious!
If he dared to say that he didn't want to play this role, Hong Bao would have his legs broken when he got home!
Then the two began to discuss the character of the characters in the play. Hong Ming is still very dedicated. He plans to go home and try to figure out this character a lot, and strive to perform well when the time comes!
The popularity of Qi Lin's movie is different from other movies. Maybe he can become a hit when he performs well?
Speaking of which, it's really unrealistic for the second generation of stars like them to try to figure out their own way entirely on their own.
Most people live under the influence of their parents. Even if they walk out of their own way, some people will say, without your father, you would not even have this chance. If it were me, I would definitely be better than you!
But is it really like this?
Of course not, it cannot be denied that there are indeed some people who say the same thing as netizens, and most of them!
There are even some second-generation stars who have obtained some resources under the influence of their fathers, but they seem to look down on their fathers everywhere.
But not all the second-generation stars are like this. There are still a group of second-generation stars who are working hard silently and learning from scratch.
You can’t just use one sentence to ruin all your efforts just because they are the second generation of stars!
The two chatted for more than half an hour before Hong Ming bid farewell and left. This man was very measured, and after knowing what he wanted, he didn't exchange too many pleasantries.
"Sister, how is the preparation of the crew?"
"Now the shooting standards can be met, and the remaining props can be handed over within one month, without delaying the shooting."
Qi Lin nodded slowly. For the studio's first major investment in a big movie, Qi Lin still attaches great importance to it.
"I just don't know when the movie will start filming next year, and when it will be our turn."
Wang Xiaohua sighed, if it was an ordinary crew, Wang Xiaohua would have gone to discuss with the director long ago to see if she could shoot her own scenes first.
But it's hard for Wang Xiaohua to say anything about this gift movie.
After all, everyone is a celebrity! Who doesn't have a tight schedule?
You look for me, but it’s not beautiful. It’s better to follow the director’s arrangement.
Another point is, if you go to someone else's director, it won't give you face!
Who is that? That's Han Ping!
Think about it stupidly, can anyone be qualified to make this kind of tribute movie?
This kind of boss, use to give you the face of a young actor?
But Wang Xiaohua also knew that it would definitely be useful to bring Mr. Ji out, but Wang Xiaohua didn't want to have a gap with Qi Lin because of such a trivial matter.
"Don't say that the filming will start after the end of the year. Will it be released on National Day?"
"That being said, it's normal for this kind of film to be filmed for four to five months. Who knows when we will be able to film our scenes?"
Qi Lin also nodded, what he said was right, and who would dare to interfere with this kind of movie.
You play on one side, and you can change your role on the other side.
What's even more exasperating is that instead of you, there are a hundred people waiting at the other end!
This is the influence of gift movies!
Maybe it will be worse in terms of box office, word of mouth, and awards.
But in terms of honor and qualifications, no movie can match!
And, who could turn down a chance to play a martyr?
Thinking of this, Qi Lin couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional. If possible, he also wanted to play a senior! Even Red Army soldiers!
But in the end, he was going to play the role of "Emperor of the Devil".
However, Qi Lin also knew in his heart that this kind of famous boss role was far more sought-after than Red Army soldiers.
It can be said that it is quite a face for people to give such a role.
Even Wang Xiaohua heard that after the role was offered, a well-known director in the circle slapped his thigh in distress!
Secretly felt that it was too late for me to start. I thought this role was definitely his, but when I went to pick other roles, I was cut off!
On the other hand, another great director, very cunningly reserved the role of General Feng for himself!
After the previous training, Qi Lin has some experience in playing the role of the gangster brother, but the problem is that Du Yuesheng is different from the general gangster brother, or he should be called the gangster tycoon!
Moreover, in many performing arts, the image of Du Yuesheng is not the kind of fierce and aggressive person. Instead, he values love and righteousness, and is elegant and romantic.
This is what makes Qi Lin a little puzzled. A person who can really reach that position must not be able to rely on love and righteousness alone. How to perform the aura of the "emperor of the devil" depends on his ability!
Time passed slowly like this, and soon came February.
The total box office of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" reached a terrifying 4.2 billion! It's more than "John Wick" but the total box office is 200 million higher!
The people in the circle were already shocked, and the quality of this movie was really not low. They could have imagined such a result.
Having said that, it still doesn't prevent them from being envious.
