Chapter 282: New Characters, Small Moves

"Yes, a little surprised, I didn't think you'd call me at this time...... Of course, I have a lot of time...... Yes, I know...... Are you sure...... No problem, no problem at all, I can start whenever you need it! Sean finally hung up the phone, and then let out a sigh of disbelief on his face.

"What's wrong?" Kate asked curiously.

"Uh-huh......" Sean organized the words in his head, "you know Anthony?" Minghella, right? ”

"Of course, a very good British director, "The English Patient" and "The Genius Ripley" are all his works, and he discovered you." Kate recalled, "Why, he called and asked you to play a role in his new work. ”

"Yes," Sean said with a smug smile on his hands, "he said that he was currently working on a new movie, which was about to start, but the actor had not yet been decided, because he was always hesitating between me and Jude. But now he finally gave me the phone at Harvey's suggestion, you know, that fat Weinstein man. ”

"You promised? Didn't think about it at all? Kate was surprised.

"Weishenme to consider?" Sean spread his hands, "Since it's Anthony's invitation, of course I should agree." ”

"In other words, you didn't even figure out what the subject matter, what content, and how much investment you had now, and you agreed to it without consulting others?" Kate asked, word by word.

"Hmm...... Not all, at least I know it's a movie adaptation of myself Charles? Fraser's novel, about Cold Mountain, during the Civil War...... "Sean was a little embarrassed, but quickly straightened his chest again," but I went to the audition this afternoon and knew that filming would officially start in a few days - is there any problem. ”

“…… No," Kate looked at him and rubbed her forehead, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly, as if she didn't know whether to laugh or what to do, "I just ...... Well...... I was just...... I want to remind you that it's a good thing to have a new character soon, but you still have "Mission Italy" to shoot right now. ”

Sean, who was still smug just now, suddenly froze and froze motionless, obviously, he didn't take this issue into account at all when he agreed before.

Kate blinked, trying to keep her "didn't you think of it" expression, but it only lasted a few minutes, and she burst out laughing in his stunned appearance.

In this laughter, Sean became more and more embarrassed: "Hell, I ...... I didn't think much about it, but that's a real problem......"

But he quickly reacted: "Wait, what's the problem, my shot in "Mission Italy" is almost done, and it can be done in another week at most, so it's a big deal to ask Anthony to postpone my scene a little." ”

"I didn't say anything, it was all you said." Kate immediately raised her hand, smiling and looking very happy.

Sean glared at her for a long time, and then shrugged his shoulders in a relaxed manner: "All problems can be solved, so let's solve the current problems first." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly pounced on her and took her in his arms.

It took Kate several seconds to react, and immediately reached out and patted: "Sean, what are you going to do!" ”

"Didn't I just say that?" Sean smiled, "I'm going to audition this afternoon, and I definitely won't be able to come back in the evening, so ...... Now let's do what we have to do in advance. ”

"You're a ...... No way! Kate struggled to speak, but her voice quickly lowered, this had happened many times, but it was a pity that Sean never let her succeed in the fight.

You know, if a man and a woman want to maintain a long-term relationship, and they can't divulge the unrecognized relationship, then a certain amount of passion is a must. But with Sean and Kate acquiescing to the current model, the two of them will be calmed down, and after a long time, then meeting once or more once a month will become routine.

Sean naturally can't let this happen, but he can't think of a better way for a while, so he can only look like this for now. Of course, he was very measured, and Kate probably sensed this, although there was resistance every time, it was not fierce, and it didn't last long.

Not to mention this, although the sudden phone call interrupted today's tryst because he didn't turn off his mobile phone, the harvest was also good, and after meeting Minghella in the Miramax building, and having the makeup artist clean up a little, he and Weinstein brought in an impromptu performance: a man rushes home thousands of miles away, and after countless tortures and difficulties, finally meets his lover.

Then, the role belonged to him, and the next thing to face was Frederick's chattering complaints.

"You went to the audition without telling anyone?" When he came to the agent's office the next day, after Sean told him this, the corners of Frederick's eyes twitched obviously, and it seemed that he didn't jump up and bite Sean, he was already very cultivated.

Sean couldn't say that he was having a tryst with a married woman yesterday, so he had to advance Minghella's call for a while, which made him very happy to deal with Jordana and Katie's questioning, work first, but after facing Frederick, it was difficult to talk.

"That's when Anthony called me." Sean had no choice but to spread his hands.

“…… What is the budget for a movie? Frederick cupped his chin and looked at him with blank eyes.

"Hmm...... I don't know yet. "Keep spreading your hands.

“…… So which actors are you going to work with? Frederick covered his face.

"Hmm...... Still don't know. "It's still a spread.

“…… Is there anything you know? His whole head was pressed against the table, and he seemed to shrink under the table at any moment.

"Oh, I already read the novel "Cold Mountain" last night, which is about the Civil War, a Southern soldier who was tired of fighting, so he left the battle line and wanted to go home and wait for his lover to meet, even if it was just one side, so there were many stories on the way home, haode bad, good and evil, I think it's not bad." Sean perked up.

"yes, you think it's good," Frederick said with his head propped up, his eyes still sparkling, "and now that you've decided, what more can I say." ”

Seeing his appearance, Sean couldn't help laughing, but quickly put it away and became a little serious: "You have to understand, Fred, it was Tony who called me personally. ”

At the same time, he shoved Sanders, who was sitting next to him, who had been silent, though a little unhappy - he had been here most of the time since Frederick had let his female assistant go.

"Yes, Fred, you should know that if it weren't for Anthony, Sean wouldn't have become famous so quickly, so ......," he said, then shrugged his shoulders and made a "you know" gesture.

"I know, I know......" The agent finally cheered up, he crossed his hands in front of him and looked at Sean for a long time, "Okay, do what you want, Sean." ”

There was no doubt that Frederick gave in again, but before Sean could be pleased, he immediately added, "But! I'm in charge of the rest! And you can't say any more to them until the results are out! ”

"No problem, Fred, no problem!" Sean immediately agreed, "Everything is up to you." ”

The agent's face finally looked a little better and smiled, and in order to ease the atmosphere, he threw out a light-hearted topic: "By the way, remember that someone said that you were speculating when you released "YouRaiseMeUp"? ”

"Do you have news?" Sean immediately asked.

Although this rumor has been dispelled with the release of "BewhatYouwannabe" and its good results, Sean still wants to know who is responsible for it, and will use such ineffective means to discredit himself.

"Yes, there were," Frederick grinned, "remember who you had a conflict with this year?" Very serious conflict. ”

Sean frowned at first, then his eyes widened: "You mean...... New line?! ”

"That's right, it's them." The agent nodded, "Although there is no definite evidence, most of the clues point to them. ”

"But ......," Sean was puzzled, "they're going to do that?" I thought if they felt offended......"

"Yes, they do feel offended, but you can't leave them at their mercy," Frederick laughed, "I never said, Sean, you were pretty imposing in the conference room of the new line that day. ”

“xiexie。” Sean raised an eyebrow, and when he said this, he basically understood.

Obviously, although the new line reluctantly paid the money and signed a contract with him, he was not allowed to mention this in front of outsiders, especially other "Lord of the Rings" actors, but after all, he couldn't swallow this breath. After all, Sean only played ten minutes in the first part, but he had to take away close to 2 million dividends, and the second part played a little more, but he could take it away, no matter who he replaced, his chest would be blocked.

However, they didn't have a better way to retaliate, Sean is no longer the hairy boy he was a few years ago, as he said in his Zuihou ultimatum, now he has the capital and the new line to break up and lose both. But if you don't retaliate, the new line may not be too ugly, so after thinking about it, I used such a method, maybe you won't lose much, but at least it can make you sick.

After thinking about this, Sean laughed randomly, and then looked at his agent: "In that case, what are we going to do to let the new line take a look?" ”

He's not Jesus, he's got to be hit on the left cheek and he has to put the right cheek over too, and since the new line has to make small moves behind his back, and he knows it, he has to show something.
