World-class directors in the entertainment industry

[Mission: Impossible] crew filming scene.

"Mimi is going to Jingnan to play with my cousin. Do you also want to go to my parents' house?"

Qin Dong received a call from his cousin Liu Xiulin at work and was silent for a while after hanging up the phone.

There is a lot of information on the phone this time. What does Mimi want to do?

Do you feel that the competition with Sisi is too great? So you want to adopt a roundabout strategy? First capture his cousin, and ask about his parents through her cousin, with the goal of capturing his future parents-in-law?

"Okay, this girl is very narrow-minded."

Qin Dong touched his chin and thought about it secretly.

Mimi's trick may not be considered old-fashioned, but it is very practical. Qin Dong can completely imagine a situation where a big star humbly inquires about two old people, behaves very well-behaved, and is very good at pleasing the two old people.

, very popular with the two old people.

To completely please the two old men was to set a trap for Qin Dong.

"Forget it, leave her alone and let her do whatever she wants."

After thinking about it, Qin Dong shook his head helplessly and concentrated on taking pictures.

As for women, just think about it. There is nothing to say about this kind of thing. Sooner or later, it will happen. Sisi will go home with him to meet her parents during the Chinese New Year. By then, I'm afraid...

Thinking of the expressions on the faces of his parents, Liu Lan and Qin Jianjun, Qin Dong felt that he would not be punished.

...

Lunch time.

The crew of [Mission: Impossible] is still very rich, at least the food is good.

It doesn't matter to Qin Dong, it's not his money anyway.

However, some problems were also discovered through this. For example, big-name Hollywood stars have such big airs and there are so many people walking around. Tom X’s team has a very large number of people. The expenses of these entourage are all included in the crew’s bill.

Including meals, accommodation, transportation, accommodation for accompanying persons, etc., these conditions are all clearly stipulated in the contract signed by Tom.

Even though this "Mission: Impossible" was jointly invested by Tom's own company and Paramount, these contract conditions are still very high.

However, Qin Dong knows that these are not the status enjoyed by big Hollywood stars. In fact, this is the case in the entertainment circles of all countries.

Don't think that there are none in China. In fact, big-name stars all have a lot of conditions. The difference is that some ask for 50 conditions and some only ask for 20.

But Qin Dong has never encountered these, because his development is different from others.

In the initial stage, the actors we found were all of low status, and these people were not qualified to ask for any conditions.

After Qin Dong got up, big-name actors came, but Qin Dong had a higher status and these people didn't dare to mention him. If he mentioned Qin Dong, they would be told to get out.

Even though Scarlett Johansson had already gained some momentum before, due to Qin Dong's script and CAA's pursuit, these conditions were still not mentioned during the contract.

As the world's largest brokerage company, CAA is not a short-sighted company, otherwise it would not have become the world's number one brokerage company in just over thirty years.

So once you make up your mind to do something, CAA will definitely investigate and find out Qin Dong's style of behavior. Therefore, Scarlett's contract does not have any messy things, which are exactly what Qin Dong is disgusted with.

For example, some actors not only have good housing, good food, and good transportation, but also have high requirements for the people who accompany them. What else? They need milk to wash their hands, what brand of water they need to drink, and some even bring small pets.

, Nima’s pet service status is higher than that of the second-ranked actor in the crew, which is outrageous.

"Qin, when we live in this world, we must have our own lives, and the Lord is us..."

After Tom Cox became familiar with Qin Dong, they became very talkative.

At lunch, he couldn't keep his mouth shut while eating, and was ready to continue preaching about the Scientology he believed in.

"Oh, Tom..."

Qin Dong spoke speechlessly to interrupt Tom's words.

I found that this person was very self-conscious before, never talking too much, and was simple and clear. However, after getting familiar with him, I found that he was a bit talkative, and he would always preach the sect he believed in in front of Qin Dong, which made Qin Dong feel very upset.

Qin Dong had also heard of the sect that Tom believed in.

Why have you heard of it? Because this sect has made Tom X’s reputation even worse.

At the beginning of the new century, Tom divorced Nicole Kidman. At that time, the couple shared the same agent, Perkins. However, after the divorce, Tom directly opened an agent, Perkins.

This time, a hornet's nest has been stirred, because this Pai Jinli has been with Tom for many years. It is reasonable to say that Pai Jinli picked up Tom with one hand. Tom has a clear background, so naturally he has a lot of dirty information.

So he sent Jinli and Nicole to attack Tom together.

Nicole showed a weak attitude at that time, which made the public sympathize with her, but she slowly began to hate Tom.

As for Tom, his career began to go downhill from this point on, and then all kinds of black material spread all over the place. The biggest black material among them was the sect that Tom believed in, Scientology.

Legend has it that Tom has a problem, that is, he cannot read books or read scripts. He has tried many methods but nothing works.

In the early days of his career, when he read scripts, he relied on his agent to read them to him. Later, he was introduced to the Church of Scientology, which cured his problem. He could read scripts by himself and no longer needed anyone else to read them for him.

Outsiders don’t know whether it’s true or false. Anyway, since then, Tom has often promoted Scientology, even appearing on TV programs to promote it. In addition, Tom’s reputation has become worse and worse at that time, which has aroused the resentment of society.

This leads the public to think that Scientology is a mess, so this is also one of Tom's biggest black spots.

"Oh, Tom..."

Qin Dong interrupted Tom speechlessly. This man was really persistent. Qin Dong felt that he could not let the other party do this anymore. Who could bear to be harassed like this every day? He put down the food, looked at Tom seriously and said:

"Do you know who opened the heaven, earth and universe? Pangu."

"Do you know what to do if there is a great flood? You are building Noah's Ark, only a few people survive, but our ancestors are indeed. King Yu broke through the mountains and opened rivers, and discharged the floods into the sea."

"Do you know the third ancestor of the human race?"

"The Youchao clan, inspired by birds building nests, invented the idea of ​​building houses with grass and trees, so that humans were no longer restricted by caves."

"The Zhenyi clan taught the human race to use animal skins to keep out the cold and to use leaves to cover their bodies. From then on, the human race had clothes to wear and got rid of the custom of nudity."

"The Suiren clan suddenly understood the method of drilling wood to make fire from the birds pecking the wood, and the brilliant fire came out, and also discovered from practice how to strike fire with stones. Human beings who mastered the methods of making fire and using fire began to develop from ancient times.

When it developed into the ancient times, it was truly distinguished from the wild beasts."

"These are our three ancient ancestors."

"After the Three Ancestors, we still have the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors."

"And the King Yu who broke through the mountains and dug rivers to let the flood flow into the sea was one of the Five Emperors."

"Tom, do you understand?"

"Our faith is no longer in words, but in our blood."

Tom's eyes were straightened, and for the first time he knew that there was such a thing in faith.

He had chatted with Qin Dong many times before and knew that this person had no faith, so he came up with the idea of ​​attracting Qin Dong, a director who had begun to become famous, to join the Church of Scientology.

For this reason, I would often start preaching to Qin when I had free time.

I didn't expect to hear such words this time.

"Oh, my god... Qin, it turns out that your faith is so deep and profound."

"Perhaps only a race like yours with a profound heritage and culture can have such a belief."

"Okay, forgive me, I won't mention it again in the future."
