Chapter 768: meet
"That's fine. If we advertise this news without authorization, it will probably make Eric Williams feel uncomfortable," Ron Rather nodded and said: "However, after meeting tomorrow, no matter the result. How can we contact the media, which is definitely good for your development in the circle. In addition, have you read the original "Royal Casino"?"
Cate Blanchett pulled out a book from the bag and said: "I have already read it, and there are a few pages of the script. Wisper Linde should be the only true female character in 007 history. Instead of the vases that were **** and hot in the past, I found that I now like this character."
"Of course, if "Casino Royale" continues to follow the previous production ideas, Eric Williams will not personally direct, combined with the original, I think that Wisper Lynn may also be the only woman James Bond loved. Ron Rather apparently did a lot of work ahead of time. After saying these words, he looked at his watch and said: "The time is almost the same. The agreed meeting time is tomorrow at 12 noon. We are at 8 o'clock in the evening. The plane rushed back to Sydney. Now there is still some time to go to the city center with me. You have to pick a suitable suit. Kate, this time is not a time to save money, leaving a good impression on Eric Williams. It is the most important thing."
"Wait, Ron," Cate Blanchett shouted at his agent and said, "I think that clothes and the like are not the most important. You see, this invitation is so awkward, anything normal. There are no invitations, we don’t even know how Eric Williams found me. What's more, when the meeting time is at lunch time, it means that the schedule of the other party is very tight, we may only have one or two hours. Time to get the approval of the other party. In this case, what do you think Erik Williams most wants to see?"
Ron Rather, who was just about to get up, sat down again and looked at the original "Royal Casino" that Kate was still on the table and the thin pages of the scripts that came from the other side. He suddenly understood: "You are Said, this is actually an audition?"
"Of course," Cate Blanchett picked up the script in his hand and said, "So, what we should do most is not to buy clothes, but to ponder this role together. I hope that you can help me against the words." ""
......
The time is already January 22, Eric has been in Sydney for 10 days. Last night, the 53rd Golden Globe Awards Ceremony was held at the Hilton Hollywood Hotel. "Forrest Gump" won the story without any surprise. The best film, best director, best actor three awards.
There was no big problem in the later period of "The Matrix". In a week, Eric had already discussed the final post-production and editing strategy with the main creative team. Negotiations on the purchase of WIFI patent technology have also begun. Rick handed the matter over to the R&D team responsible for the MP3 player.
Eric's schedule is very tight, finishing the noon meeting, he will depart again in the afternoon to fly to Cairns, Queensland, Australia. After last year's preparation, Catherine Bigelow was from Terrence Marek last year. The Red Alert has been filmed in the Daintree Rainforest National Park near Cairns. Since I have come to Australia, I still have to go to the past.
After bidding farewell to the Wachowski brothers and others, Eric took the assistant and left the four-story office building where the digital sector branch office is located.
In addition to the bustling areas on both sides of the Parramatta River, most of Sydney's city is actually similar to ordinary towns. There are few high-rise buildings. Of course, this is mainly because Australia's population is too small. The population of Australia is only 1600. More than 10,000, even in Australia's largest city, Sydney's urban area is more than 1,000 square kilometers, and the population is only over 3 million. The same area, this figure is even less than the two thousand cities that Eric has settled in. A fraction of the population of more than four million.
Although close to the University of Sydney, according to common sense, the flow of people around the school is always dense, but after walking out of the digital office building, Eric stood on the side of the street and looked around. At the end of the street, there was a big road, which is the University of Sydney. The fence of the iron fence, however, the whole street is only three or two pedestrians who are cold and clear. Although there is a person who likes to be quiet in the bones, Eric is still somewhat uncomfortable with this kind of empty scene.
The bodyguard drove the car over, and Eric took the assistant to the car and went straight to a nearby restaurant. He had an appointment with Cate Blanchett to meet there.
Although the script has not yet been finalized, the 007 crew has long begun to look for the protagonist, and Pierce Brosnan is about to continue to play James Bond. There is no objection. Among the remaining characters, the most important thing is undoubtedly the new singer, Wisper Lynn. The original version of Wisper Linde, Eva Green, has a lot of highlights in the film, but she is only one at this time. Girls who are less than sixteen years old are naturally excluded.
In the process of identifying alternatives, Eric first thought of Nicole.
Whether it's appearance or acting, Nicole is absolutely able to stand up to the image of Wisper Lynn, a proud and sensitive insider.
However, because of the popularity of the past few years, Nicole has already identified three films in the past year, and the schedule has been scheduled for the end of next year. Moreover, even if Nicole barely squeezed out the schedule, the crew could not afford her according to the initial budget. After all, Nicole’s current commercial film pay is basically 10 million, while Pierce Bros is in the second. The paycheck also rose to 7 million.
Except for Nicole, most of the people recommended by the production team failed to satisfy Eric. When determining the Australian itinerary, Eric accidentally thought of Nicole's fellow countryman, Cate Blanchett.
Eric doesn't think how beautiful Cate Blanchett is, but in the original time and space, her acting skills are absolutely impeccable, and she has a wide range of dramas and can be used for almost any subject. This can be seen from Kate Blanchett's series of nicknames 'Queen', 'Young Master', 'Backmother', etc. Behind every nickname is a screen image that impresses the audience, for a movie-like People, watching Cate Blanchett's performance, can be said to be a kind of enjoyment.
The meeting place was chosen in a very casual restaurant.
Eric was fifteen minutes ahead of schedule, and the assistant went to pick up. He sat alone at the booked location, asked for a cup of coffee, and asked the waiter if he had a newspaper today.
Although he has already won the rough results of the Golden Globe Award, Eric is planning to look at the detailed report.
The young waitress stared at Eric for a few seconds with hesitation, and seemed to be unsure of his identity. Eric’s arrival in Sydney did not appear in the newspapers in a big way, ordinary people also There is no way to know. When I heard Eric’s inquiry, the other person realized that he was somewhat rude, and he closed his mind and pointed to a simple bookcase near the wall. “Mr., there, what newspaper do you need, I will help you?”
"No, I will come by myself," Eric shook his head, got up and walked over, picked a weekly magazine related to the movie, was about to return to his seat, and glanced at the magazine bar inadvertently, suddenly being A magazine cover called "DOLLY" is attracted. This should be a girl magazine with a baby face girl wearing a pink short skirt.
I took the magazine and went to the table to sit down. Eric opened the magazine and found that the magazine was holding a girl model selection contest. The 13-year-old girl named Miranda Kerr was the last one. The winner of the selection.
"I really can't see it. It's a bit of a disaster at the age of thirteen," Eric said with a smile in his mouth. He looked at the photo of the **** the inside page with great interest, but he remembered the two business elites in his previous life. The street is ridiculous news for Miranda Kerr.
Feel free to flip through the magazine, Eric's heart unconsciously once again produced some kind of bad taste.
In the original time and space, after the new century, the fashion circle is a supermodel. Now it should be a girl who has just debuted.
Perhaps, take advantage of this opportunity to plant a deep egg in this 007.
The original "Royal Casino of 007" happens to have another supermodel supermodel Alexander Ambrosio as a guest shot of a tennis girl.
In this case, why not gather the later group of goblins and make a guest appearance at the same time. After three or four years, when these supermodels shined in the fashion circle, people suddenly found that they all had a bunch of guest appearances in "The Royal Casino of 007", which would be a very interesting thing.
Recalling that, in addition to Miranda Kerr, Alexander Ambrosio, the supermodel that will be debuted recently, Gisele Bundchen is definitely one, um, and Adriana Lima, others ......
Eric shook his head, no longer bothering, sending a few emails at night to major brokerage companies to ask for information directly, and then pick it from it. According to industry management, most of the supermodels that can emerge, when the 13-year-old began to be contracted by the model company.
As he was wondering about it, Eric heard the sound of his high heels coming in and looked up.
Wearing a white shirt and black trousers, a large female shoulder bag hung on the shoulder, and the masculine Kate Blanchett in the dress came alone toward him. Although she didn't make up her hair, it seemed that she had specially cut her blonde hair to let her whole person exude a shrewd and feminine atmosphere.
Eric nodded with satisfaction, and it was clear that the other party had done a very good preparation. From the temperament of Cate Blanchett, Eric could even feel the Vesper Lynn on her body. Get the breath.
Eric is about to get up and shake hands with her, but inadvertently captures the faint examination and provocation in the eyes of Cate Blanchett, with a slight smile on his lips and stays in the seat.
From the other's eyes and physical performance, Cate Blanchett has clearly entered the show.
Sure enough, Cate Blanchett sat down on the opposite side of Eric and gently dropped the bag on the chair next to him. He said, "I am the money."
As a director, Eric certainly does not have to recite the lines, but this is also completely difficult to overcome him. After all, the complete image of the original version of Eric’s memory, although the new version of the plot has been greatly adjusted, but the state The first scene of the sparkling splash between De and Visper was basically preserved.
Essence looked up and down with interest, and Eric nodded with satisfaction and said: "It's really shiny."
Although he has already entered the show, Kate still maintains some autonomy. She was also worried that Eric would be difficult to cooperate. Hearing Eric went down the line and suddenly let go of his heart and immersed himself in the long-awaited role.
After picking up a prepared card from the bag and handing it to Eric, Kate continued: "The Treasury has agreed to support your gambling."
Eric glanced at the card at random and said: "Vesper, your parents really can't name."
Kate completely ignored Eric's teasing, picked up the menu on the desktop and looked at it casually. He said: "The relationship between your boss must be very hard. I have never seen the Ministry of Finance approve such a soon. A huge sum of money."
Eric took a sip of the coffee in front of him and didn't mind, saying: "And the huge money still appeared in such an elegant posture."
Kate sneered at Eric with a scornful look and did not answer.
Eric waved the waiters who had come over to leave temporarily and continued: "Let's ask where the money is now?"
"Ten 10 million dollars have been remitted to your account in Montenegro. After I confirm that this 'investment' is infallible, I will remit out the remaining five million," Kate looked up from the careless look-up menu. After saying this, he said: "So, you have to know, Mr. Bond, if you lose, Zhengfu is equal to financing terrorists. So, can you make sure that you will win?"
Kate made some modifications to the script that Eric sent in the past, but this did not stump Eric, and responded with ease: "Unless you can conclude that others will lose."
Eric also made some changes to the lines. Kate also did not have any stagnation. "So, everything depends on chance. God knows, my biggest concern is the chance."
Eric shrugged and said: "Actually, you have to know that playing cards is to fight against your opponent, not to play with yourself."
Kate glanced at Eric without trust: "So, you will observe people?"
"Yes," Eric looked at Kate, who was on the opposite side of the gas field. "And, I have observed it now, you have been stabbing in your words."
Kate leaned back on the back of the chair and picked up her arms. Although her face was laughing, the tit-for-tat ridicule was even more obvious: "It seems that my money is really for the right person."
Eric had planned to stop here. He was very satisfied with the performance of Cate Blanchett in just over a minute, but perhaps he was unconsciously dragged into the plot by Kate’s gas field, subconscious. Continue: "Why, you don't recognize my plan?"
"Oh, this is a plan. Why can I only feel that we have a hundred dollars in life and a few hundred lives?" Kate’s tone is sharp and fast, with a faint anger, and the body is again Pour, continue to ask: "So, let's talk, Mr. Bond, what else can you observe?"
