Chapter 327: Opportunity
The two companies mentioned by Xia Chaoqun are currently among the top film entertainment production companies in Europe and the United States, and have invested in the production of many classic films. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiang Se quickly reacted to the reason why Xia Chaoqun mentioned this matter, Xia Chaoqun was reminding her that once it was determined that the two companies had investment, the opportunity that Cesare represented was enough to drive many celebrities crazy.
If Cesare really has a commercial film with a big investment to be made, even if the male and female lead actors are set, if he can play a role in such a movie, it also means entering the international market.
After understanding Xia Chaoqun's prompt, Jiang Se nodded and said with a smile:
"I see. ”
The agreed location with Cesare was in a roast duck restaurant in the center of Sheung Wan in the imperial capital.
This roast duck restaurant has a history of nearly 100 years in the imperial capital, the environment is quiet, the confidentiality is strong, the service staff are well-trained, and the chef is very good, so although the price is expensive, it is still difficult for ordinary people to book a place.
This is the place designated by Cesare, and from this point, Giance analyzes two situations.
The fact that the roast duck restaurant was not booked in advance and that it was very difficult to book a spot, and that Cesare's decision to locate it proved that he had planned a trip to China a long time ago, and it was by no means improvised.
At the same time, his act of specifying the address also gave Jiang Se a general understanding of the strength in this person's character.
He is accustomed to giving orders and likes to take the initiative into his own hands.
He also set the time of the meal very delicately, and when dealing with such people, he can be smart, but he can't be smart.
It was still early when Jiang Se came, and it was already past noon time in the roast duck restaurant, but there were still many customers.
The smell of roast duck filled the store, and as soon as Jiang Se entered, the waiter recognized her.
She has released two movies in a row this year, and her appearance rate is very high, and her fame has also risen, and many people in the store have turned their heads to see her.
When Jiang Se was discovered, a waiter stepped forward quickly:
"Miss Jiang, please come here, Mr. Lei's position is here. ”
By the time he entered the box, Cesare had already arrived.
He was wearing a snow-white shirt, a blazer hanging in a cabinet on one side, and his millet slightly curly hair was neatly combed back, revealing a full forehead.
This young director from Italy was leaning against the window at this time, holding a book in his hand and flipping through it, and after hearing a knock on the door and saying please come in, he turned his head and saw Jiang Se.
He didn't seem surprised by Jiang Se's early arrival, and greeted her easily in the tone of greeting an old friend:
"I never get tired of reading this book. ”
He raised the book in his hand, revealing the cover of "The Prisoner", and Jiang Se noticed his hand, with slender fingers and a watch on his wrist, and the whole person looked delicate and elegant.
"Yes. ”
Jiang Se nodded, the waiter retreated in a playful manner, Cesare stood up, put the book in his hand solemnly, and then hugged Jiang Se:
"It's been a long time, and you look so pretty. ”
"Thank you for the compliment, Cesare. Jiang Se smiled, pulled a chair and sat down: "I didn't expect you to personally send the book to Huaxia." ”
She looked up, "Actually, I thought you had forgotten about such a trivial matter. ”
Cesare laughed 'haha', obviously not disgusted by Jiang Se's joke, his eyes were gray-blue, with a bit of misty taste, and when he laughed, he showed a mouthful of white and neat teeth:
"How can a true gentleman forget what he promised?" he gracefully picked up the book on the table and stroked it twice:
"In fact, it's because I've always been worried about entrusting her to someone else to transport her, which would be too wronged for her. ”
After he finished speaking, he handed the book to Jiang Se.
The book looks a little old, and it can be seen that the corners of the book are a little hairy because of the people who own it.
However, the whole book is maintained very well, and the owner of the book has left no other marks on the book except for the traces of reading.
Jiang Se got up and stretched out his hands to take the book, and her action made Cesare smile in his eyes:
"It's a pleasure to share it with people who like her. ”
"Page thirty-seven?"
Gance followed the pages of the novel that Cesare had just flipped through and saw the pages he had read earlier, and Cesare nodded:
"I took advantage of my free time to watch it on the plane. ”
He picked up the tea on the table, "This novel, people who read it for the first time, will think that it is too deep and difficult to read, and many people will be frightened by the large number of religious words, and then give up on her." ”
Cesare took a sip of his tea and said:
"But if you stick to it, you'll find the book interesting. This book, I've read it dozens of times. ”
He made no secret of his love for "The Prisoner", squinted his eyes and said:
"At the beginning, when I read it for the first time, I just gave up halfway because I didn't like to do things, the first time I read it, and the second time I watched it again, there is a saying in Huaxia called ......" He frowned, showing a look of contemplation, Jiang Se continued his words:
"Amazing. ”
"Yes, amazing!"
Cesare was a little excited to affirm Giancer's words, "I can't wait to watch it again for the third and fourth times, and every time I read it, I have different feelings." ”
When he first watched "The Prisoner", he was still very young, "It was when I was in college, and I also found her in the corner of the college's library, and now when I watch it again, I feel a different feeling." Matthew is a great writer, do you agree with me?"
"Of course. Jiang Se nodded, "After all, your book is still in my hands at this time, and you should know that I can't say anything against it." ”
Cesare couldn't help but laugh.
"But I do agree that Matthew is a great writer, and his greatness lies in his thoughts, in the clever arrangement and portrayal of each character in the novel. Jiang Se didn't laugh, she stretched out her finger to trace the title of the book:
"I've watched The Prisoner a few times before that. ”
"How are you feeling?"
Cesare became interested, and when he asked, he said:
"Since you know that there is an idiom in Huaxia called being amazed, do you know that there is another idiom in Huaxia that is called chilling?"
She translated the word in English to roughly mean 'shivering without cooling', and Cesare understood the approximate meaning, and repeated what she said twice, applauding:
"Definitely. ”
"Matthew's words are also wonderful, every word always says exactly what he wants to say, and after the English translation, it does lose some of the flavor of the book itself, so thank you Cesare, for being willing to lend me the original novel, and I will take good care of her. ”
