Chapter 389： August
Chapter 389 August
"Is this little money enough to make a movie?"
Qi Lin was really surprised. Wang Xiaohua was speechless after hearing this: "I've said it all. Four or five companies invest together. In the end, it can be worth 20 to 30 million yuan. Why is it not enough to make a movie? You expect small investment movies to be used." How much?"
"But, but the original "Xiu Chun Dao""
"Think about it carefully, is "Embroidered Spring Knife" a small investment?"
When Qi Lin thought about it, it seemed that it really didn't count. Not talking about others, just talking about the cast was an exaggeration.
Wang Xiaohua said with a smile: "A real low-budget movie may be made for less than 10 million yuan!"
Qi Lin felt a little emotional, a movie with an investment of 10 million yuan!
In his eyes, he couldn't even think about it, not to mention anything else, how much is Qi Lin's salary now?
If the box office share is not given, 60 to 70 million has to be a human price!
And that's enough for several movies!
Some people may think, so can’t you ask for a little less?
Really can't!
Either don’t pay a dime, just help!
Either charge normally, or it will mess up the rules in the circle.
For example, Qi Lin only received 10 million yuan for this movie, and then spread it.
When other investors hire actors, they will use Qi Lin as an example.
For example, for an actor who originally charges 20 million yuan, investors will use Qi Lin to bargain when hiring them. For example, a star like Qi Lin is only 10 million yuan. Why do you want 20 million yuan?
This kind of thing has not never happened in the circle, and the final result is that the actor who charged the price indiscriminately left the circle completely.
After all, he violated the interests of almost everyone, and doing so is a big taboo in the circle, even Wang Xiaohua dare not offend it easily!
Of course, it refers to influential artists. As for those small actors who pay sky-high salaries for certain purposes, no one cares about them at all.
The result of this is that the number of filmings of big names and high-paying artists is decreasing.
After all, there are only a few movies with big investment every year, and not everyone can get their turn.
So these big-name actors thought of a way to bring money into the group!
In this way, the crew’s funding problem can be alleviated, and when the money is divided, it can also be divided more.
In fact, it is equivalent to giving the crew a chance to pay in installments.
Qi Lin went to shoot "Xiu Chun Knife" before, otherwise Qi Lin's salary alone would be enough for the crew to drink a pot.
There is another method, which is the yin-yang contract.
However, most of the people who use this kind of contract falsely report low, but actually receive high.
Only some people who have swollen faces to pretend to be fat will falsely report high and actually charge low.
Qi Lin had heard from Wang Xiaohua that an old artist in the circle hadn't had an appointment for a long time, and he was still reluctant to lower his social status, so he could only use this kind of yin-yang contract in the end.
As a result, he played big names during the filming of the film crew, and finally annoyed the investors, so he directly shook him out, and immediately became a laughing stock in the circle.
Qi Lin stretched his waist and said with a smile: "You said it so seriously, I was taken aback. I thought it would cost tens of millions."
Wang Xiaohua smiled and shook her head, then said.
"The chess viewing side is ready, and the actors on the field are all ready. We can go back to shoot after we finish the filming here."
Qi Lin agreed, and Wang Xiaohua said slowly.
"This time it's just a test, to see if the audience rejects our [Kylin Studio] movie."
Qi Lin didn't understand, and asked in surprise.
"Sister Hua, didn't you say that the audience supported me?"
Wang Xiaohua shook her head after hearing this: "Of course the audience supports you, but there is a difference between supporting you and supporting the studio. That's why I chose the comedy "Charlotte Annoyance" this time, and I didn't spend much investment."
Qi Lin seems to understand, he is actually not very sensitive to these things.
Qi Lin is more like a pure actor. Most of the time he spends most of his time thinking about how to play a role in a play well. When resting, in addition to exercising, it is a real rest and emptiness.
So he is very good at filming, but in terms of management, that is not his forte.
The time slowly came to the beginning of August, Qi Lin's fighting scene in Hollywood was the last one left.
For this scene, everyone in the Qi family class stayed up for several nights before finally designing the most suitable actions for this scene!
The prop master was also very busy, and the requirements for this scene were very high.
Because according to the setting of the plot, the helicopter that was shot down by the rocket slid all the way and then exploded, blowing up the water supply system on the roof.
At the same time, the flames ignited, forming a circle of flames on the roof, with fire and water.
This is because the temperature in the fire circle is not low, the actors and machines need water to cool down, and this site is rented, and the site needs to be protected.
Another point is because it looks more visually appealing!
"Props! How's it going?"
"Give me five more minutes! One last check!"
"Okay, hurry up and call me as soon as you're done!"
"Good director!"
The prop master answered loudly. Director Andre got up after shouting, and looked towards the open space not far away.
In the open space, Qi Lin and the villain Mark are doing warm-up exercises.
It is not easy to talk about this Mark. He is an out-and-out martial arts fan and has really learned martial arts.
Director Andre also chose him to play the villain because of this.
It is also because Mark knows kung fu, so in terms of designing movements, Qi Jiaban deliberately chose some movements that look good but require certain physical conditions.
And Mark didn't disappoint them either. In one afternoon, he did all the movements very standard.
This speed is already very fast. After all, not everyone has the same monster-like imitation ability as Qi Lin.
Qi Lin also fought some moves with him before, and Mark’s reaction was very good, belonging to the kind of real strength, but how about the specific skills, the two have never fought before, so I don’t know.
But if it is in the octagonal cage, Qi Lin is confident that he can be dealt with within 30 seconds, and even Wang Yi is confident that he can be dealt with.
After all, not everyone can learn the real killer moves in martial arts.
Qi Lin is the closed disciple of the older generation, and Wang Yi is the grandson of Baji Master Wang Bao.
An outsider wants to get the true biography?
Difficult, very difficult!
This is also one of the reasons for the decline of Chinese martial arts!
Everyone can learn to keep fit.
Hitting people with bare hands? That's not something everyone can teach!
"Director! No problem! Fire ready!"
The prop master ran over erratically, his fat face covered with sweat.
Director Andre looked at Qi Lin and Mark after listening to it. The two of them also heard the voice of the prop master. They both finished warming up and were walking towards the venue.
Director Andre walked back to the director's chair after seeing this, picked up his loudspeaker and shouted.
"Fighting in the fire! The first shot, the first time! Get ready!"
