The beef on Link's plate was only half of it. Nolan, on the other hand, seemed to be genuinely hungry. He's gone to get food.

This time, though, he had been there for a long time, and Link seemed to hear him answering the phone, and walked back into the house to talk. Come to think of it, it's a matter of trade secrets.

He was also comfortable sitting alone. He thought he was just an unobtrusive person, but a young woman in a white dress came up to him: "Hello sir, can I do it here?"

Link was stunned at first, not understanding that he, an Asian, would let these Hollywood beauties who wanted to be famous talk to him. But even though he knew that the other party might have other purposes, he still stood up and smiled and said, "Please feel free!"

"Thank you!" the woman reached out and stroked the back of her hips and sat down gracefully. "I always felt familiar to me. Are you a star from Asia?"

"No, I'm not a star!" Link said, sitting down and shaking his head.

Link: I don't know if she's really faceblind to Orientals. In fact, many times, Easterners and Westerners are faceblind to each other. Unless you are paying attention to each other, or your facial features are very prominent, it is normal to not be able to tell who is who.

Like Link himself, he was always face blind to black people. It wasn't about racial attitudes, it was about the fact that he felt that black people were all alike. If it weren't for his friends, it would be really hard for him to tell who the stupid ministry knew who was who. It doesn't matter if it's a man or a woman.

And although he lives in the white world, he is more sensitive to the facial features of the yellow race. At least he could distinguish the facial features of several major yellow people in East Asia, and he could tell that the other party probably belonged to that country. Of course, white people can probably tell some of the difference. For example, typical French and Italian faces tend to be more elongated, Germans have sharper edges and corners, and Russians have more hooked noses. The British, on the other hand, are more changeable and seem to have a mixture of European roots.

And he is also good-looking, he has just been dressed up by Jessica, so it is not impossible for the other party to mistakenly think that he is a star from the East.

Of course, he also suspected that the target of the other party's accosting was not him at all, but Nolan.

The young woman did come with a purpose, so of course she wouldn't back down because of Link's coldness, she still smiled and said, "Yes, I think you're very fashionable and temperamental, so I think you should be a star." And you do make me feel familiar. The woman said, holding out her slender fingers. "Introduce yourself, Wheeler Point. ”

Link grabbed her four fingers: "Link Hans!" and let go of his hand. This woman is beautiful, but she doesn't have the feeling that Jessica has that makes his heart move.

"I know why I think you look familiar. It turns out that you are the man who was called the 'Las Vegas God of Gamblers'. I've seen you on TV, Mr. Hans! One day, your pictures were on TV, but then suddenly they weren't there. Poynt said suddenly. "What you've done is legendary. I said to my friend, you are a fighter. It's just that I didn't expect you to be younger than the photo. ”

As she spoke, Nolan returned. He didn't have a saucer in his hand, and the expression on his face wasn't very good. He was stunned for a moment when he saw a beautiful woman sitting next to Link, but immediately put a smile on his face. He sat down in the chair before him: "Who is this beautiful girl?"

"Hello, Director Nolan, I'm Wheeler Point. ”

Point's introduction to himself was so short that Nolan was a little stunned. In the past, no matter whether he met men or women, as long as he was not a popular movie star, he would crackle and talk about a long paragraph, mainly about the other party's resume. This Point only introduced his name, giving the impression that the other party had no intention of looking for opportunities with him.

But he wasn't so narcissistic as to think that everyone he met should stammer. He smiled and said, "What are you talking about?"

Point smiled and said, "I just recognized Mr. Hans." I think his experience is legendary. However, Mr. Hans seems to be very unimpressed by the nickname "Las Vegas God of Gamblers". ”

"Oh, you know about him?"

"Yes, Mr. Hans was on television because of his fight with the IRS. However, he is more temperamental than the photo. So I didn't really recognize him at first, I just felt familiar. But as soon as he introduced himself, I had a picture of him battling three World Champions. That must be desirable. ”

Point kept a proper smile, but she was very nervous about Nolan.

No matter how rich Link is, it can't directly help her future. But if Nolan is given a bad impression, then she may lose the opportunity to participate in this big director's film.

Nolan glanced at Link meaningfully, smiled and said to Point, "Miss Point, I need to talk to Link alone about something!"

The disappointment on Point's face couldn't be hidden, but she forced a smile and said, "Okay." Then I won't bother the two of you. He said and stood up.

But I heard Nolan say, "Miss Point, can you leave a call? I may have a role for you." Of course, that needs to be auditioned. ”

Poynt was on a rollercoaster ride, and the disappointment on his face had not yet subsided, and surprise and excitement were pouring in. She hurriedly took out her business card and said, "Here's my contact information." Thank you so much for giving me an audition. ”

Nolan sat in a chair and the business card said, "The audition may be three or four months away." It's a more important role. ”

When Poynter heard that it would be three or four months later, he was not disappointed, but on the contrary was even more happy. That also means she has more time to prepare. She can use these months to train in her acting skills. That would make it even more helpful for her to stand out in the audition.

Link listened to Nolan's words, but was a little strange. But I thought to myself, maybe Nolan had another film project to make. He has a production company, but not necessarily every film needs him to direct it himself, he can also be a producer. And the producer also has the power to recommend actors.

When Point was gone, Nolan snapped his fingers at a nearby waiter and asked for a glass or two of red wine.

The waiter brought the wine and left, Nolan's face was a little heavy, and he said, "I just received good news. ”

Link looked at his face as if he had received some good news: "What is it?"

"I don't have to worry about Death Frog Jumping for a while. My application to shoot on Iwo Jima was denied. "They have been preparing this application for half a year, but the result is still far away. It may take more time to convince the chicken pan people to agree to let them go to the island to shoot.

If you were going to shoot on other islands, you had to re-shoot and redesign some of the setups, which took quite a bit of time. And he would have preferred to shoot on Iwo Jima. That's not only a gimmick, but also a better restoration of the original battle.

Link smiled wryly, unable to grasp his humor, and said, "That's good news indeed." Maybe you can take a break! I think you and your family are eager to go on vacation. ”

Nolan suddenly smiled and said, "But I can devote myself to the preparation of the movie "God of Gamblers" in Las Vegas." ”

Link didn't expect him to suddenly change his mind and move their plans forward. He frowned and said, "Is it too late then?"

"I think we could write the script in two months, make a budget, and contact the location to shoot. A month to choose an actor. Then spend two to three months shooting. If there is publicity and editing, it may be released during the Christmas schedule. ”

"Don't you need to do market research first?" Link, a little worried. If this project has no market prospects, no matter how big Nolan's name is, it will be in vain.

Nolan said with a smile: "In fact, we have already done research on this intention. Many of the respondents would like to see a movie about gambling. Of course, there are also some people who want to see a gambling film with cautionary significance. Our scripts will have that quality. ”

Link suddenly said, "So it's not entirely a coincidence that we can meet here. ”

Nolan acknowledged his claim, saying, "Yes, it's not entirely a coincidence. Martin invited me to his party this afternoon, and he occasionally mentioned you. And I had the idea of meeting you, so I offered to see you. He said to Mr. Pete that he would like to invite you to come. ”

Link understood the joints and smiled and said, "Okay, I'll have the funds ready." As long as you can work out a budget. I would invest 25% of it. ”

Nolan raised his glass and said, "That's the good news I'm talking about!

"Indeed good news for me. If I can invest in some promising films, that's a good thing to do for me. It can make money, and the taxes are relatively low. Because film belongs to the cultural industry, not industry and commerce, the tax on personal income is less than that of other income. Maybe you can introduce me to some good scripts that need to be invested in. ”

"I'll keep an eye on it. The two glasses touched, and Nolan said after taking a sip of red wine. "Next, Jonathan and I need to visit you once soon. ”

"Of course that's fine. ”

"Well, do you have any requirements for actors?" Nolan's eyes flashed.

Link shook his head and said, "I trust your professional gaze. ”

Nolan asked, not really asking him to recommend actors, but to test whether he would interfere in the casting process like some investors do. Hearing him say this, Nolan was temporarily relieved and said, "Then what do you think of that Point just now?"

He paused and said, "I originally had a rough idea in mind. But when I saw her just now, I felt a little similar to the temperament of the little girl's sister you said. I mean the little girl you saved from the gunman. "Link is likely to be one of the main investors in the project and has access to the casting work.

Link thought about it for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's different. The girl was indeed very quiet, but like a budding pink lotus. And that Miss Point was more like a blooming lily. ”

"Really, then, it's a really exciting role. I think we need to shape this character well. I'm going to make this character a heroine. Nolan thought for a moment and asked with a smile. "By the way, is this reality?"

"Nope. That girl was a very, very good girl indeed. Worthy of the best boy in the world. But she was never my girlfriend. He can talk about himself, but not only about other people. At least he won't do that until those people agree.

Nolan nodded and said, "Okay." I understood. However, it is not easy to find an actress with the temperament you are talking about. You know, Hollywood is a big dye vat. It's hard to find a girl with the kind of temperament you're talking about. I still plan to give Pointe an audition for her. Unless, of course, she performs really well in the audition. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen her. "Because she doesn't have box office appeal.
