After eating breakfast made by his mother at home and strolling around the community to show off his dog, Lin Qingyuan left the Golden Rooster trophy and certificate of honor he brought last night here for his parents to keep for future use.
When the time comes, just ask them to help send it.
Then he put on a mask and sunglasses, carried a large bag of clubs and went out to the underground garage. Among the many supercars parked here, he bought the one he had bought a long time ago but had been parked in the garage gathering dust.
McLaren drove out.
This is a black-painted version of the McLaren 720S launched by the famous modified car brand Maxari.
Painted in all black, all interior and exterior decorations including all parts, even the wheels and brake calipers are all black, making it a true Darth Vader.
An hour and a half after sunrise in Beijing, the dark McLaren boarded the road and drove like a beast to the CBD International Golf Club in Chaoyang District.
The less warm winter sunshine shines through the forest of modern high-rise buildings and onto the asphalt road.
The car music is playing Altar's "Implus", a psychedelic electronic song by Phonk that achieves the ultimate in dark art.
The 360-degree three-dimensional surround sound makes the impact of the dark gothic rhythm flowing on the ear tips stronger, accompanied by the roaring sound of the McLaren supercar engine...
Lin Qingyuan gradually became addicted to it, and he felt that he was born to play the role of Bking.
He is very talented and enjoys it.
It's a pity that the speed limit in the urban area and the traffic volume are very large, otherwise Lin Qingyuan would really have the desire to race on the deserted streets in search of the experience of chasing the wind at top speed.
"Looking at how you look now, Qingyuan, do you like supercars? Or do you like drag racing?" Han Yan asked with a smile from the co-pilot of McLaren.
They made an appointment to play golf together today, and since they lived just across the road, Lin Qingyuan simply took him there to avoid having to fight for a parking space.
"Do you think I am so busy at work every day, how can I have time to enjoy supercar racing? My hobbies have to give way to work and career." Lin Qingyuan smiled.
"Having said that, time cannot completely stop love." Han Yan asked again: "What are your views on life, life, or life and death?"
"No, you asked me this kind of question while driving..." However, he was speechless. Lin Qingyuan still gave his answer seriously: "Whether it is physically or mentally, what a person wants
Death actually only takes a moment, and even a passing dump truck may take away your life."
Lin Qingyuan looked out the window.
The display windows of the specialty stores on the street and the glass of high-rise buildings are connected in series, reflecting the smooth, fashionable and luxurious cold and hard lines of this McLaren.
Early eight o'clock in the morning happened to be the time for office workers to rush to their workplaces. Pedestrians on both sides of the street were walking in a hurry, and all they could see was envy.
"It exists calmly and objectively. It will not be open-minded to anyone, and it does not have any particularity or pertinence." He has a lot of say in this matter.
Han Yan nodded and spoke with emotion: "You know, I am very sensitive to themes such as birth, old age, illness and death. Many of the films I have made also have thoughts about life and death. I think the care of life and death is the ultimate concern of human beings. There is nothing like it.
This matter is more worth talking about, and everyone can't avoid it one day."
"And there is a saying that goes like this, all injuries are just scratches in the face of life and death. We treat death as a big deal because we face death squarely. We have to treat death as a big deal and also treat it as a normal thing."
"You're right, but why did you suddenly talk about this?" Lin Qingyuan turned to look at Han Yan. He knew that Han Yan must have his own intentions when he suddenly said this, and smiled and said his guess: "Han
Is your new film about the relationship between life and death?"
Han Yan nodded and explained with a smile: "Chinese people have a natural respect for death, so I think it is very worthwhile to make a film like this. We can use such a film to expand this topic and let more people
Understand what the funeral profession entails.”
"Funeral?" Lin Qingyuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "A movie like Neon's "The Embalmer"?"
"Actually no, although the protagonists are in the same profession, their styles are completely different." Han Yan said: "Some time ago, a young director born in 1985 sent me a script. At first, I thought it was about funerals and I thought it would be very sad.
But after reading the script, I found that the style is very relaxed, which is different from the usual impression, and I feel very good."
"Director Han, you said so much, so you want me to star?" Lin Qingyuan asked directly.
Han Yan smiled and nodded, recognizing what Lin Qingyuan said, "I think almost no one in the Chinese film industry can refuse an outstanding actor like you who has both box office appeal and acting skills, and we are veterans who have worked together on two movies.
If we have a partner, if there is a good script and a suitable role, I will naturally find you as soon as possible."
"I'm very expensive now." Lin Qingyuan made his request in a joking tone.
"Of course I know you are very expensive. When we signed the Little Red Flower contract at the beginning of the year, you already had a basic salary of 30 million plus 10 points of investment dividends. After more than half a year, you are a newcomer to the Golden Statue, and you are a newbie.
The Hundred Flowers Best Actor won the Golden Rooster Best Actor the day before yesterday, so there is absolutely no doubt that he is worth more now."
"Then I'll tell you straight away, because I haven't seen the script yet, so I can't give a clear answer yet, but if the script is suitable and I am willing to star in it, what kind of treatment can you, Director Han, provide me?"
"This is a small-budget movie. The production cost is estimated to be 60 million including the actors' remuneration. This was the original plan because we were worried that such a subject would not be recognized by the market." Han Yan said with a smile: "But if you join us,
If so, we are willing to increase the budget, how about a basic salary of 30 million plus 15 points of dividends?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! (Sixty million plus thirty million) multiplied by 1.15 to get the actual cost when dividing accounts, and then divide by 0.38...
They had considered in advance that as long as the movie's box office reached 300 million, they would not lose money.
"Let's keep it like this. I don't want the basic salary of 30 million, but I want to get 50 points. If it's not enough, I can make up for 10 million." Lin Qingyuan said loudly.
As for whether it will break industry rules?
Haha, he is the only selling point of this low-budget movie. In other words, he is the rule itself.
And there is no need to talk about his current box office appeal. Therefore, even if it is a very unpopular funeral theme with a high probability of box office failure, no one would think that Lin Qingyuan’s box office appeal cannot reach 300 million. Naturally, there will be a lot of companies
He followed me all the way to pick up some food.
Under such circumstances, Lin Qingyuan's willingness to share half of the investment is already showing his kindness, generosity and compassion to the world.
Following Lin Qingyuan, this is already a recognized fact in the domestic entertainment film industry.
As for when will the truth be broken?
They don't know, but they don't want to be the unlucky guy who suffers disaster after falling off the altar.
Hearing Lin Qingyuan report such an exaggerated figure, Han Yan, the co-pilot, raised his eyebrows, but it still did not exceed his psychological expectations. He said calmly: "Although it is exaggerated, it is not impossible to talk about."
He is only the producer of this movie. Making this movie without losing money is his biggest goal now. As for making a lot of money from this movie...
He really has never had this thought.
After all, the low-budget funeral-themed movie really perfectly avoids all the special elements that make it a box office hit.
"Then let's talk about it then. Anyway, your crew hasn't been set up yet." Lin Qingyuan was in a good mood. He had a hunch that this movie would make a lot of money.
If he can really negotiate an actor contract worth 10 million yuan in exchange for a 50% share ratio, then this movie will probably provide him with an income of upwards of 400 million yuan.
What's more important is that there is no need to pay tax again on the box office distribution distributed to each employer.
This means that if the box office of "Life Events" can exceed 2 billion, then Lin Qingyuan can get almost 400 million in after-tax income, which is crazy!
"Okay, but why do I always feel that you are very confident in our drama? You haven't even read the script yet." Han Yan laughed heartily.
"I have confidence in myself." Lin Qingyuan released the accelerator, the engine was turned off, McLaren's speed gradually slowed down, and the navigation showed that they had arrived.
"What do you expect from this little red flower?"
"Two billion, I believe the audience will buy tickets and walk into the cinema just for my name and yours, Director Han's."
"The only thing you really want to say is yourself..."
"You said that yourself."
Lin Qingyuan smiled noncommittally.
Although the CBD International Golf Course is not the best golf course in Beijing, its quality is pretty good. Of course, the most important thing is that it is close to home and very convenient.
Showing the lifetime membership card he had asked someone to apply for, Lin Qingyuan led Han Yan into the stadium and followed the staff.
The infrastructure inside is quite complete and the environment is pretty good, with no missing areas.
Not long after walking inside, they saw two other golf friends who had come over today.
"Yuan Bao, I just said I wanted to play golf, but I didn't say I wanted to play at such a big and professional venue..." Cheng Xiao approached Lin Qingyuan and said very quietly.
She and Wu Xuanyi arrived twenty minutes earlier than Lin Qingyuan and they had already toured this professional golf course covering an area of more than 100 hectares.
Lin Qingyuan said in a funny tone: "What are you afraid of? I don't know how to fight, Director Han doesn't know how to fight, and Xuan Yi doesn't know how to fight. Everyone is just here to have fun."
"Have you never played before? That's right. If you are a beginner, we usually start practicing with the swing first." The coach followed and added.
He didn't expect to see Lin Qingyuan playing golf here today. He was really excited and excited.
After all, Lin Qingyuan is now definitely considered the most famous and influential young man in China. After work, I must ask him for an autograph and a photo!
"But the swing can be a little boring."
When Lin Qingyuan was still studying, Lin Tianrui took him to play golf a few times, ride a horse a few times, and play tennis a few times, but he never had much interest, so he simply let him go back to singing, dancing, and playing basketball.
"Yes, several teachers should have come here to experience golf today! So if we don't want to practice the swing, we can also start the experience directly by hitting the ball into the hole." The following coach suggested: "This will give a greater sense of accomplishment.
, and it’s easier to build interest in golf.”
"I think it's okay!" Wu Xuanyi raised her hand to agree with the coach's suggestion. She just wanted to play, not practice.
But Lin Qingyuan expressed a different opinion at this time, "If you don't swing with the correct posture, it is easy to injure your shoulders and wrists when exerting force."
"It's okay. I won't come here often anyway. Let's just play casually today." Han Yan didn't care. Anyway, his biggest goal today has been completed.
"Where are you, Xiao Xiao?" Wu Xuanyi hugged Cheng Xiao.
Cheng Xiao was suddenly called and was a little stunned.
She didn't know how to answer for a while, so she could only subconsciously look at Lin Qingyuan with pleading eyes. She was already used to letting Lin Qingyuan make decisions.
Lin Qingyuan gave her a reassuring look, and then said: "Let's do it like this. Let's practice swinging for a while, master the posture as much as possible, and make sure we won't get injured, and then we can play ball normally. I don't want to call you out to play ball.
, and ended up injuring someone."
After Lin Qingyuan made the decision, the others had no objections and followed the coach to the practice ground with the professional clubs brought by Lin Qingyuan.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The coach personally demonstrated a swing, and Lin Qingyuan also imitated it. The swing posture was also very proficient and the degree of completion was very high. Unlike
beginner.
"Didn't you say you haven't been beaten before?" Cheng Xiao curled his lips, "Does it look like you haven't been beaten before?"
"It's just my merits that are not worth mentioning."
After Lin Qingyuan finished speaking, before the confused Cheng Xiao had time to react, Han Yan on the side couldn't help laughing, "Qingyuan, have you also seen Li Gouhao?"
"I watched it when I was in high school."
"Why is Li Gou so happy?" Cheng Xiao wondered.
"It's a Japanese drama, okay, let's start practicing."
The coach demonstrated another swing.
He deliberately slowed down this time, broke down a smooth swing, and carefully analyzed every detail and explained it to everyone.
Cheng Xiao kept nodding, but she could understand most of it because Lin Qingyuan was beside her and cooking the stove for her.
Next comes the actual combat exercise.
Lin Qingyuan picked a light cue and handed it to Cheng Xiao, nodded to her, "Xiao Xiao, it's your turn to try it."
Taking the club, Cheng Xiao recalled what the coach and Lin Qingyuan had just explained. He placed his feet shoulder-width apart and his knees slightly bent.
Next, place your non-dominant foot in front, with the back foot perpendicular to the target, and the toes of the front foot pointing roughly in the direction of the target.
"Wait a minute." Lin Qingyuan came over and held Cheng Xiao's shoulders with both hands, moving her to the side so that there was a suitable distance between her and the simulated hitting point, "You are too far away from the ball.
When I get closer, I don’t notice that your arm is so awkward against your... body? You must also pay attention to the shift of the center of gravity during the swing."
Lin Qingyuan was a little speechless. Xiao Xiaoxiong was so big that if he couldn't find the correct swing posture, he would get stuck easily and his movements would be really awkward and stiff.
Cheng Xiao didn't know what Lin Qingyuan was thinking in her mind, she was just being manipulated by Lin Qingyuan in a daze.
"Try again now."
Cheng Xiao nodded, and then obediently prepared to swing again. This time it was indeed less awkward than before, and he swung out smoothly without digging or hoeing the ground.
"How was my swing this time?" She looked back at Lin Qingyuan excitedly, eager to get his praise.
"It's very good. There has been progress, but there is still room for improvement." Lin Qingyuan smiled and nodded in approval.
"Then hurry up and teach me the next step!"
So the original five-person group of four people and a coach was immediately split into two small groups.
The coach took Han Yan and Wu Xuanyi here to practice and experience, while Lin Qingprin took Cheng Xiao there to play around.
Lin Qingyuan stood behind Cheng Xiao and hugged her, then put his warm palms on the back of her cold hands, led her to hold the club tightly, and then broke down the swing movements to give detailed instructions step by step.
"Take your time and carefully appreciate the smooth feeling of this swing. Once you get used to it, you will be able to hit the hole smoothly."
Cheng Xiao's face was a little red. She tried hard to listen to Lin Qingyuan's teaching, but it was still too difficult.
Because all she could think about now was the warmth coming from Lin Qingyuan's palms and various parts of his body, as well as the tickling feeling when he spoke and exhaled in her ear.
She only felt that her whole body was wrapped in the warm embrace of Lin Qingyuan, and the warm feeling of reassurance filled her whole body, so that even the teaching lines he said were processed and translated into other meanings in her mind.
Pay attention to the way you exert force. There are many swing postures. You need to swing smoothly and powerfully. You will get used to it after swinging a few times. You will have a sense of accomplishment after successfully entering the hole...
Cheng Xiao blushed with embarrassment and called for help!
But fortunately, in the end, Cheng Xiao, who is quite talented in golf, successfully mastered the most basic swing and experienced the sense of accomplishment of hitting the ball into the hole.
"I succeeded!" She dropped the club, jumped onto Lin Qingyuan excitedly, and hugged him tightly.
"How is it? Is it very comfortable?"
“It’s quite a sense of accomplishment and very comfortable!”
It was really not a joke, Cheng Xiao found that he seemed to have really found the joy of playing golf.
She decided to buy a set of gaming equipment online for playing simulated golf at home after returning home today.
Next time, it will be her turn to teach Lin Qingyuan.
