Well, literally!
Know all kinds of vehicles well.
He is the vehicle modification consultant for the next movie that Naris finds.
The modification of the vehicle will be designed according to Wang Yifan's requirements.
Of course, Minnick is just one of them.
In fact, Minick is not too cold with Wang Yifan.
In China, although there are many car fans, most people only like supercars.
As a car expert, Minick is also a car enthusiast. He has a large car modification shop under his own name.
I usually modify the car myself!
Although Wang Yifan is known as the light of Asia, the number one director in Asia, he seems to be very famous.
But that was only in the film and television industry.
So Minnick refused at the beginning. If it weren't for the price Naris offered him that he could not refuse, he would never come.
"Wang, this is Minnick James! Auto expert, car enthusiast, I believe that he should be able to meet your car modification requirements!" Although Minnick doesn't think that a Chinese director like Wang Yifan knows cars, he does The sponsor, so he was more polite.
"Hi, Wang, hello!" Minnick James said hello.
"Hello! Naris should have told you that this movie of mine requires a lot of modified cars, and I need a car expert who is very proficient in cars! I hope you can meet my requirements!" With arrogance, Wang Yifan doesn't care at all. This is true of all capable people.
But in the same way, Wang Yifan didn't use Minnick after listening to Naris' introduction.
He also wanted to examine Minnick's ability.
"Yes, Miss Naris mentioned it to me, but, I don't know, what is the king's request?" Minnick asked.
Wang Yifan thought for a while and said: "It takes at least 150 cars to shoot. My idea is that these modified cars are mainly old cars. My request is not an internal modification, but an appearance modification!"
Hearing Wang Yifan said that at least 150 cars are needed, and they are mainly old cars, Minick was also a little shocked.
Although the car is in the old American side, it can be said that it is a daily necessities, which is completely different from that in China.
But one hundred and fifty cars, that is a very large number, not to mention the need to modify these vehicles.
"All one hundred and fifty cars need to be modified?" Minnick couldn't help asking.
Wang Yifan nodded and said, "Yes, everything needs modification!"
"What about the requirements? What are the specific requirements?" Minnick asked again.
"My requirement for the car design used for shooting is to be cool enough. I need at least more than 150 modified models. It's best not to repeat each one. I ask for each model to be blasted to the point of explosion. Each car is unique. , Weird and aggressive!" Wang Yifan said.
Minnick opened his mouth wide, a little confused!
Just kidding, each one is not repeated, it is cool enough, and the models are open to explosion. Each car is unique, weird and aggressive.
This request is too exaggerated.
"Ahem, Wang, your request is still not specific enough, I need more and more specific things, otherwise I can't give an answer." Minnick was a little arrogant, but still a little disapproving in his heart.
Because what Wang Yifan said was too exaggerated, what a joke.
The modification of more than one hundred cars, and there are such requirements, do you know cars?
"Here are the conceptual drawings of several of the main tanks. Take a look!" Wang Yifan naturally knew that he needed to give a direction. Otherwise, Minnick would not be able to refit it.
Minnick took over the concept drawing of the tank drawn by Wang Yifan.
"Oh, MYGOD!" Just took it, and when he saw the car concept drawing designed by Wang Yifan, Minick was immediately dumbfounded and shocked.
Because this concept map is so cool!
"Wang, I want to apologize to you, I thought you didn't understand cars at all, but this design is so cool!" Minnick said with excitement.
In fact, although the props of "Mad Max Fury Road" are mainly cars, the other props are equally cool.
Such as the fire-breathing guitar and so on.
And the shape of each character is also crazy and cool!
"This car is the actor Max's car, I call it Interceptor! Do you have any ideas?" Wang Yifan asked.
This is also a test.
Of course, the car Wang Yifan wants cannot be made by himself, but must be modified on the basis of some original cars.
Minnick looked at the car of the actor called the Interceptor and gave the answer immediately.
He picked up the tablet, searched for a model called FOTGT, and showed it to Wang Yifan: "I think this model of the first generation GT model produced by FOT in 1975 can be used as a prototype to modify!"
Wang Yifan took a look, but he looked at Minnick with admiration. He was indeed an automotive expert, and he found a car with a very similar appearance.
"This WarRig is the heroine, Ferosa's chariot!" Wang Yifan pointed to the chariot lane of the second Ferosa.
This car is completely different from the previous actor Max’s car. It can be said that the warrig Ferrosa’s chariot is the most present in the entire "Mad Max Fury Road" One of the chariots.
As for this car, it looks like an oil tanker, but Wang Yifan knows that this car in the previous life was modified by combining several cars.
Minick just watched it for about a minute and then gave out a prototype car!
"It can be seen from the front of the car that its prototype is an American heavy-duty truck-Peterbilt358 series, and the fort at the rear of the tanker is the rear half of the cut Beetle..."
"However, is there any terrain requirement for this car?" Minnick asked again.
Wang Yifan's eyes lit up and he glanced at Minnick with admiration.
The first car, in fact, is not very complicated. It is enough to modify it directly with a prototype car.
But this car is completely different, because this is a tanker truck, and ordinary tanker trucks, it is obviously unrealistic to want to dominate the desert.
This is why Minnick asked whether there is a terrain requirement.
"Desert, in this movie, all the scenes will be completed in the desert, so I need this chariot to be able to ride the desert quickly!" Wang Yifan said.
"If this is the case, the site also needs to be modified..." Minnick said.
"I don't know much about cars. I only need results. I don't care what you do, OK?" Wang Yifan smiled.
Minnick also smiled and said, "So I passed?"
Wang Yifan nodded and said: "Yes, you passed!"
After that, the two exchanged views on the modification of several other tanks, and Minnick seemed quite excited.
Even Wang Yifan was a little admired, because although Wang Yifan didn't understand cars, the several chariots he designed were an eye-opener for Minnick.
For example, the Hedgehog chariot is so cool!
