Qi Jie's method is also borrowed from the movie crowdfunding in the previous life, of course, one yuan to invest in movies can be said to be a scam, but almost most people take out one yuan to invest in it, this kind of thing itself is very similar to buying lottery tickets, no one knows whether the movie they invest in will be a box office hit.

If it sells well, it is also very good to use one dollar as a talking point.

You'll say to your friends, hey, you know what, I'm also involved in the XXX movie shooting!

After a few attempts, Mike found that things went much smoother than he thought, and 90% of people were generous with money when they knew that he had made three films and was a director's union registered director.

The real point is that every entry is carefully recorded by the microphone, even if someone says, "Hey, man, you're not a liar, are you?" Then put his hand on his shoulder, revealing the pistol pinned to his waist, and eventually he would pull out dozens to hundreds of dollars, and say, "You're not going to lie to me, are you?" You know, if you lie to me, don't want to show up in this place, or I won't guarantee your safety! ”。

Mike didn't realize that this gesture would have such a big effect at first, but when it comes to communicating with people, it can often have a surprising effect.

On the day of Qi Jie's departure from the United States, Mike's behavior was finally discovered by the media, and the Chicago Sun reported on it: Is this a new way to raise funds? Or is it a hoax?

The article says: In today's materialistic society, many new scams are breeding, and their true degree is difficult to discern, Mike is the founder of new fundraising? Or is it a complete liar who, if it were you, would invest in the shooting of a personal independent film without the company's guarantees?

Reporters from the Chicago Reader conducted random interviews with passers-by about this, and initially they believed that such a large number of sources of money would be difficult to achieve a reasonable dividend in the end, or that there would be no so-called film shoot at all, and that reasonable people would not be fooled.

However, many interviewees said that if they could invest in a movie with only about 100 yuan, then they would agree after thinking about it. When asked if they would be scammed, many people answered differently.

"Isn't he registered with the union? The union will guarantee our rights! ”

"Mike has director qualifications and has already directed three movies, hey, this is guaranteed!"

"Compared to this frivolous young man, I think his father, an old man who has been on the battlefield three times, is more trustworthy."

Except for some adults, the younger group is very much in favor of such things, and one student even shouted at the camera "Oh, don't you think it's a cool thing to do, as long as I have two weeks of pocket money to participate in a movie, of course you know I would prefer to participate in the filming of this movie!" ”

During Mike's interview, when the reporter asked him if he would raise money online, Mike thought about it and shook his head in refusal.

He paraphrased Qi Jie's original words: "I am here, I was born and raised in my hometown, everyone here knows me, they know my address, and they know that my old-fashioned father likes to sit in the rocking chair in front of the door every day to bask in the sun, so I am real, but on the Internet, many people don't know who I am, so shooting is my dream and art!" And if I can't communicate with investors on the Internet, that's a liar! ”

After the media broadcast this passage, many letters from various parts of Europe and the United States crowded Mike's mailbox, each containing more or less banknotes.

……

Qi Jie originally planned to see Sun Wanting for the sake of it, but suddenly received a call from Su Qiannuo and had to take a plane back to China.

The cause of the incident is that the previous conflict was stabbed into the media by some people, who portrayed the provocateur as a vulnerable group, and there are even photos to prove that someone was injured by them at that time, and the biggest public opinion is the photo of the old Mike holding a gun to drive away the provocateur.

Some media even excavated her experience from childhood to adulthood, criticized her from the moral high ground, and even some newspapers used "As a public figure, is her talent important or her morality important?" Such a headline is reported.

When Qi Jie was accused in China, Qi Jie chose to return to China despite everyone's opposition.

She was the same as before, she hadn't done any of these things, they were all non-existent, why did she want to avoid them?

Trying to find someone who doesn't have a single stain on it can't be done in itself. People are slowly becoming mature from naivety. There are stupid things that can make you feel embarrassed by lying in bed late every night, so you have to fantasize about having a time tunnel to the past to make up for these stupid things.

When Qi Jie got off the plane and appeared at the airport, many reporters who had been waiting for a long time rushed up, but the staff of the new force, who had been prepared, isolated them.

In the waiting hall, Qi Jie wore a plain long windbreaker, wore a big sunglasses, and walked out of the airport firmly under the protection of the security personnel, under the light of countless magnesium lights.

"Qi Jie, what do you want to say about the things in the report?"

"May I ask if you used to be a little sister at school as the whistleblower said?"

"Why would someone in the United States have a gun to help you drive away the whistleblower?"

"May I ask why you can create so many excellent works since you are at the bottom of the school, and it is rumored in the industry that you are suspected of plagiarism, is there really such a thing?"

The people on the side of the road were almost stunned by this scene, this posture definitely belonged to the level of a superstar, and many people surrounded them curiously.

There are more and more people, and the car can't move at all.

Qi Jie stood in front of the car, then slowly turned around.

The night was awe-inspiring, and the wind was chilly.

Qi Jie took off her sunglasses and then faced many reporters.

"If I answer your questions, will I be able to keep this place in a good environment for traffic?"

After getting everyone's consent, Qi Jie asked all the onlookers to gather in one place and give way to the roadway.

She said: "First of all, am I a little sister? Be. When I was in school, I was at the bottom of my grades and did a lot of mischievous things, but what does this have to do with my work? If I plagiarize, please tell me whose work I plagiarized? ”

The reporters looked at each other, and although there were always voices saying that the girl's works were plagiarized, no one ever said whose works were plagiarized.

After answering the reporter's questions one by one, when a reporter handed the microphone to Qi Jie and asked her if she was a foreigner.

Qi Jie turned his head to look at the road where cars were coming and going, and said with a smile: "At least we didn't block the road, your problem is like, we are standing there, it has nothing to do with me, nothing to do with the road." ”

The reporter who asked the question was still stunned, and Qi Jie had already turned around and got into the car.

That's when he figured out what this meant.

It was true that a group of them were stuck on the road because of the girl, but it also affected traffic.

Thinking about it a little deeper, this girl pointed out that he was far-fetched, and also hinted that the quality of this bunch of reporters was underneath!
