Chapter 442 The Value of Qi Lin
Qi Lin was a little confused when he heard this name. What is it? Mr. and Mrs. Smith?
Can you tell me what this name has to do with the sound of an agent? It sounds like it’s obviously an urban movie!
Qi Lin snorted and wiped his sweat with a towel again before asking.
"Is there something wrong with this name?"
Wang Xiaohua also frowned and said: "I didn't receive the script from this side. I don't know if it's a translation problem, but the other party said that you were auditioning for an important role."
Qi Lin nodded and said immediately.
"Then let's just go there with a black eye?"
"Of course not. I have to make an appointment with them for the audition first. And even if the audition is passed, the subsequent filming time will have to be discussed. After all, we will be filming "John Wick" next year."
Qi Lin nodded, with some expectation and some resistance in his heart.
Qi Lin actually doesn't like going to Hollywood to film movies because he is surrounded by 'foreigners' and feels a bit alienated.
In China, everyone speaks the same language and has the same skin color, and I feel like I belong here.
When you go abroad, you will always feel that you are just an outsider, and the land is very resistant to you.
This feeling made Qi Lin somewhat uncomfortable, but he was looking forward to it. He knew in his heart that this was the only way to be a good actor!
Whether it is Brother Fang Long or Li Jie, after reaching the peak in China, they all chose to go to Hollywood, because only by conquering here can they go to the world!
Although Qi Lin has already had two movies released in Hollywood, and one of them has a pretty good reputation, this is not enough.
He just gained a little fame and made everyone familiar with this face.
What he wants to do is to make this face a household name, so that children can clearly call out his name after seeing it!
...
"Director Doug and Qi Lin agreed, and they are very sincere and plan to come to the audition in person."
"Coming to the audition in person? Does that mean I have to spend my precious time to see him?"
Director Doug was still a little dissatisfied with the investor's rejection of Pitt. After all, in his mind, Pitt was the best candidate for the leading role.
The producer and Doug are also old partners, and they know his temper very well.
"Doug, Qilin is not an ordinary actor. He is called the movie koi in his country, which means he can bring good luck to the movie."
After hearing this, Director Doug curled his lips and said: "You mean he is a mascot. After the investors rejected Peter, they found a mascot to be my leading actor?"
After hearing this, the producer said calmly: "He is not a mascot, he is a koi, and he has the mysterious power of the East! Let me tell you this, of all the movies he has shot since his debut, not one of them has lost money, and
The movie’s reputation is very good!”
Director Doug was startled, then laughed and said: "How many movies can he make at such a young age? If I only make two movies, I can also say that I have never lost money making a movie."
The producer seemed to have already guessed that he would say this, and said in a calm voice.
"He made a dozen movies!"
When this number came out, the producers were a little confused.
The producer continued: "I have said that he is not an ordinary actor. He is considered the successor of action movies in China, that is, the successor of Mr. Fang Long and Mr. Li Jie."
"In China, there are anywhere from 100 to 80 directors who want to film with him. There are even countless investors who come to the door with money, just hoping that Qi Lin can help them shoot a movie."
"So Doug, I don't want you to look at Qi Lin through colored glasses. Believe me, he is a rare actor! I just received news that he is coming to Hollywood to film the sequel to "John Wick"!"
The producer's expression was very formal, Director Doug sighed, and finally nodded.
"I see."
In fact, Director Doug didn't have any objections to Qi Lin, but the leading actor he planned to use was suddenly replaced. Even an ordinary small director couldn't accept this, let alone this big director?
Therefore, he also had a bad opinion of Qi Lin.
But now that he heard what the producer said, he also felt that Qi Lin was a bit interesting, and he might be really capable.
After all, if he didn't have the ability, Director Chad wouldn't invite him to continue filming the sequel to "John Wick".
Seeing that Director Doug had compromised, the producer smiled and then asked.
"And with this person joining, you don't have to worry about action design. He is definitely a top action director. He participated in the action design of "The Matrix" and "John Wick", and "The Cradle" is currently in theaters.
It was all designed by him!”
Director Doug's eyes lit up. He didn't expect that finding actors would have such benefits!
The producer continued: "If we sign a contract by then, we can definitely hire his Qi Jia Ban. You can also take advantage of this time to take a look at Qi Lin's works and see the action style he designed."
Director Doug did not become sarcastic this time, but nodded slowly, saying that he would definitely watch it.
After the two agreed on an audition time, the producer contacted Wang Xiaohua.
As soon as the producer left, Director Doug walked out of the office, went downstairs, drove straight to the nearest cinema.
In the cinemas of Li Jianguo, the attendance rate of "The Cradle" is far lower than that in China. Director Doug easily bought a ticket, wore a mask, and found his seat to sit down.
He is surrounded by some young people. It seems that the main audience of this movie is still young people.
Soon, the movie was officially released, and everyone calmed down and watched the movie together.
As a great director, Director Doug scorned Director Andre's shooting techniques. He felt that the use of lenses was good, but the techniques were really rough.
But before he could finish his inner criticism, he saw Qi Lin turning over handsomely and standing on the eaves outside the rooftop.
At this moment, the cinema was extremely quiet, even the sound of breathing was quiet.
And at the next moment, Qi Lin loosened his hands and jumped straight down.
"ah!"
"Fake!"
"Oh, God!"
There was an exclamation in the cinema, and then Qi Lin was seen grabbing the eaves of the next city with both hands, and with the strength of his powerful arms, he hung himself in the air.
Then he let go again and grabbed it! Let go and grabbed it! In this way, he started going downstairs level by level.
The audience in the cinema exclaimed every time Qi Lin let go. It was not until Qi Lin jumped into the middle room that they breathed a sigh of relief.
But Doug's director was so bright that he didn't believe until this moment that he had really found a treasure!
With such an actor joining the cast, even if it's not as good as Pitt, it shouldn't be too far behind.
Chapter completed!
