Chapter 1804 (2/2)
David Harnett asked, ”Mr. Shaw, what movie are you going to make?”
Xiao Yunhai's status in the global film industry will not be a second person. He thinks that the box office of recent films is no less than 10 billion US dollars.
If you want to say who is the most attractive director? At least nine out of ten people will choose Xiao Yunhai.
”I wrote a drama called Forrest Gump. Forrest Gump, the leading actor in it, I think you are very suitable to play Xiao Yunhai said with a smile.
David Harnett was stunned for a moment and said, ”Mr. Xiao, are you going to shoot a literary film? It's unbelievable. ”
Melinda was also surprised.
Xiao Yunhai shrugged his shoulders and said, ”the box office will not be lower than that of commercial films after the film has been shot. Forrest Gump, I'm popular enough in the world. Box office and trophies will not be less. ”
When David Harnett heard Xiao Yunhai's words, a trace of curiosity appeared on his face and said, ”Mr. Xiao, if you believe me, can I have a look at the script?”
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: ”of course. I'm sure you'll like this charming character
When he came to the computer on David Harnett's desk, Xiao Yunhai opened the script in his mailbox, printed it out and gave it to David Harnett.
While David Harnett was concentrating on reading the script, Xiao Yunhai, who was idle and bored, also watched the TV play script on his desk.
An hour later, David Harnett stood up and said excitedly, ”Mr. Shaw, I'll take this play. I entreat you to give me the role. ”Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, ”what do you think of this script?”
Without thinking about it, David Harnett replied, ”perfect. Better than any script I've ever seen. ”
Xiao Yunhai said: ”it's not easy to play Forrest Gump. First of all, weight. You can now play Forrest Gump in his middle age. But if you want to play Forrest Gump in his youth, you should at least lose 15 to 20 jin
David Harnett said with a determined look, ”there's no problem. I can do it for this role. Do you know, Mr. Xiao? I have a strong feeling that missing Forrest Gump will be the biggest regret in my life. After September, I will not take any more work and wait patiently for your message. ”
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, ”OK. I'll leave the script with you. When it's OK, you can figure it out. Don't lose it. By the way, although I have only read a quarter of your script, I can almost 100% conclude that it is a rotten film. No one will watch it. I don't think you need to waste time on it. ”
David Harnett said, ”I think it's average. It's just boring and looking around.”
Xiao Yunhai laughed and got up and said, ”well, the story of Forrest Gump has been settled. It's the first time we've worked together. We must give a big surprise to the whole world. ”
”I'm sure it will,” said David Harnett, contentedly
Two people hugged, Xiao Yunhai left David's personal studio.
Looking at the car as it slowly left, Melinda asked, ”David, are you really going to play Forrest Gump? Don't forget that it is the first time that Mr. Xiao has made a literary film. ”
”Melinda, I'll play Forrest Gump even if I don't get a penny for it,” David hannett said seriously. It's the best character I've ever seen, not one of them. ”
After staying in Los Angeles for two days, Xiao Yunhai flew back to New York in his own plane.
When he came out of the airport, Xiao Yunhai turned on his mobile phone. Good guy, there were more than 200 missed calls in two days. A small part of them knew each other, but most of them didn't know each other. They should be the boss of the telecom company.
Xiao Yunhai secretly said: ”fortunately, I didn't turn on the phone. Otherwise, just these phones would make him bored to death.”
