Chapter 53: Christopher Nolan
At half past ten in the morning American time, Han Muxuan stood at the door of Lothrie's restaurant and let out a long breath. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Even Han Muxuan himself felt a little incredible, but he didn't expect that a tentative move could really come to the point of meeting and negotiating.
In fact, Han Muxuan woke up very early in the morning, and yesterday he went to bed too early because of jet lag, and the hotel bed was relatively unfamiliar, so the differences in all aspects made him wake up early.
It was still early before the agreed time, Han Muxuan called the hotel's dining car to order a hearty breakfast, and after enjoying it, he rested for half an hour, and then went downstairs to the hotel's gym to exercise for an hour.
Han Muxuan's habits are different, he needs to eat some food before exercising, he will feel that he has no strength to exercise on an empty stomach, the reason why ordinary people want to exercise on an empty stomach is to lose weight, Han Muxuan doesn't need it, but he won't overeat, that kind of exercise is not good for health.
Because it was his first time in Los Angeles, he was very unfamiliar with everything in the vicinity, and he and the other party agreed on an Italian restaurant next to the Four Seasons Hotel, which was a few minutes' walk away.
Although it is a high-end Italian restaurant, the atmosphere is relatively common, and there doesn't seem to be too much of a dress code. Despite this, because he was going to talk about things today, Han Muxuan was also wearing formal clothes, and the waiter at the door naturally would not refuse Han Muxuan to enter.
Pushing open the brown glass door in front of you, the temperature inside is one or two degrees higher than outside, which is like the transition of spring and summer, and it can't help but remind people of the sunny weather suitable for outings.
"Hello! How many are you? The waiter who followed Han Muxuan in asked politely, the waiter in a white shirt, black vest, and a golden bow tie exuded a unique and elegant Italian style.
Han Muxuan was not very sure, he only said the time and place when he agreed, and how many people would come over from the other party, he really didn't know.
"I've made an appointment, let's find me a seat for four people first." Han Muxuan only paused slightly, and then said his decision.
At this time, there are only three or four tables of customers in the restaurant, and there is still about an hour before lunch, so it is not surprising that there are few people.
Coming to a four-person table, Han Muxuan sat down on the sofa by the window, and then the waiter came up with a glass of warm water, held it in a goblet, and then silently retreated. Because Han Muxuan had made an appointment in advance, the waiter did not ask about ordering.
Then Han Muxuan sat quietly, occasionally looking at the environment of the restaurant and looking at the other guests on the side.
After a while, Han Muxuan felt slightly thirsty, and before he could pick up the water cup in front of him, the door of the restaurant was pushed open, because he was waiting for someone, so he subconsciously raised his head, and saw a man standing in front of the bar and turning his head to look around, this is a middle-aged white man, tall and handsome, elegant and introverted.
There were not many customers in the store, and coupled with Han Muxuan's oriental face, the white man met Han Muxuan's eyes at once, the expression on his face remained unchanged, but an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes. Then he said a word to the waiter beside him, and walked towards the table where Han Muxuan was.
"Hello! Kevin, it's a pleasure to meet you. The white man sat down in front of Han Muxuan, it seemed that he was not good at communicating, and his words were quite simple and blunt, but there was a faint joy in his tone, letting people know that he was in a good mood today.
"Thank you, it's my honor to meet the famous director Nolan." Speaking of polite words, although Han Muxuan is young, he is obviously much smoother. However, this is not a simple polite remark, Han Muxuan really feels honored, and Han Muxuan is truly impressed by the talent of the man in front of him.
The white man in front of him is Christopher Nolan, a famous Hollywood and world-renowned director, and his experience goes without saying, and anyone who knows something about Hollywood movies definitely knows this person.
is such a hot Hollywood director, how did Han Muxuan get in touch, naturally relying on "Inception".
This line was buried by Han Muxuan very early, a long time ago, Han Muxuan wrote the script from memory, and after many inquiries, he got Nolan's mailbox, and then Han Muxuan tried to send the script of "Inception" over, but he didn't expect it to really attract Nolan's attention.
Another thing that surprised Han Muxuan was that he didn't expect Christopher Nolan to meet him today, not Emma Thomas, Nolan's agent and his wife, or the two of them came together, so Han Muxuan also specially found a four-person table to prepare.
After Christopher Nolan sat down, the waiter stepped forward to ask about the order, Christopher Nolan was obviously not a regular customer here, after all, he was not too interested in Italian food as an Englishman. Han Muxuan saw Christopher Nolan's gaze and smiled at the waiter.
"Two portions of porcini pasta, one pizza of four joys, two portions of Milanese lamb chops, one portion of Italian cabbage, one part of corn bisque, and two glasses of orange juice."
Han Muxuan finished ordering and glanced at Christopher Nolan, who nodded and said yes. Italian cuisine is elegant, rich and simple, and pays attention to the original flavor, with a very rich cuisine, thousands of dishes, in addition to the familiar pizza and pasta, its seafood and desserts are famous.
Most people think that the mother of Western food is French food, but Han Muxuan thinks that Italian food is, worthy of its name. He didn't order more, the time was still early, the breakfast in the morning was not completely digested, even if it took a while from ordering to serving, the number of people was only two, and it was not good to eat and waste.
"What? Is there something wrong with the script that asked me to meet? Without waiting for the dishes to come up, Christopher Nolan went straight to the point, which can also be seen from this that he is a simple and direct person, and he went straight to the point after only saying two words back and forth with Han Muxuan.
It is completely consistent with the rumors that his otaku attributes, and he really can't match the social expert. This is also the reason why his wife Emma Thomas did not come with him, and Emma Thomas handled diplomacy and business on weekdays, and his wife Emma Thomas is also a famous strong woman and virtuous helper in Hollywood.
"No, there is no problem with the script at all, and I don't care about the price of the script, the reason why I flew to Los Angeles to meet you is because there are other things that need to be discussed." The script is just a bait hanging on the hook, not the main course, if it was just because of the script, Han Muxuan would not have flown all the way to the Pacific Ocean to meet.
"Oh? Please speak. I thought that the other party came because of the script, but at this time, I found that the other party didn't care about the script at all, and Christopher Nolan was surprised.
To be honest, he was very interested in "Inception", although he didn't say it explicitly, but it was already obvious that he would come to the appointment with his character.
When he saw this script in the mailbox for the first time, Christopher Nolan was ecstatic, all the settings and all the ideas coincided with his ideas, and after replying to Han Muxuan, Christopher Nolan read the script over and over again, and also deduced it again and again in his heart, and each deduction made him more confident in making this movie.
And Han Muxuan is also sure of this, so he will come up with follow-up plans and ideas.
Looking at the young oriental man in front of him, Christopher Nolan secretly thought to himself, Han Muxuan's high-end dress and noble and cold temperament made him feel that the other party was not a person who spoke in vain, let alone a person who was bored and looking for something to entertain.
The other party must have other special intentions to meet, he never looks at people by their appearance, and he will not despise the other party because of his youth.
Thinking of this, Christopher Nolan's curiosity rose, and soon Han Muxuan proved Christopher Nolan's judgment correct.
