Chapter Seventy-Four: The Film Project

"Jonas ...... I miss you. ”

Audrey leaned her bicycle on the side of the boat, put her arms around the back of Zhou Nan's neck, and gave a kiss. ”

Uncle Haddenke, the caretaker of the docks, laughed beside him, "Jonas, your speech is fantastic, and all of Lucerne is proud of you." ”

Zhou Nan waved his hand to him and smiled: "Uncle Haddenke, I will continue to work hard." ”

Zhou Nan started the speedboat and slowly left the dock. By this time, the rain had stopped, the dark clouds showed a gap, and the setting sun revealed a beam of light from between the dark clouds, shining on the calm surface of the lake.

Audrey leaned on Zhou Nan's body like no bones, watching Zhou Nan sail the boat, smirking from time to time. Because Zhou Nan is coming back today, she is lazy again, and she refuses to go to today's performance.

However, Stephanie rehearsed another solo dance when she went to Paris, and now she will still participate in the show without Audrey.

Listening to Audrey talk about interesting things about school, Zhou Nan has been listening quietly, and every time she responds, she can always make her talk more interested.

Zhou Nan enjoyed her attachment very much, looking at her smiling face, the occasional depression in her heart would dissipate completely.

"Jonas, we'll play on the lake for a while and then go back, and when we get home, my mother will let me practice the piano again."

"Don't you like practicing?"

"Of course not, it's just that you're around, so I don't want to practice."

Zhou Nan rubbed her hair dotingly and hugged her in the crook of his arm. "Okay, we'll go back later, but stop the boat where they can see, or they'll be worried."

Park the boat on the lake on the west side of the peninsula, about 500 meters from home. It's not the main waterway, so only the boats of some nearby residents pass by occasionally.

Zhou Nan sat on the row of chairs at the back of the boat, Audrey leaned on his arms, and the two of them enjoyed the surrounding scenery and enjoyed a rare tranquility.

John lay at their feet, looking up at Zhou Nan from time to time, and then bowed down in satisfaction.

Zhou Nan looked at the little person in his arms who was extremely attached to him, and his heart was full of satisfaction. With memories from the afterlife, with a prophet, he has changed the fate of those he cares about.

Yannick and they all have the ability to control their own destiny, and she is the only one who relies on herself wholeheartedly and loves herself even more.

I have changed her fate, so I should be responsible for her fate. In another life, she can become a world-class star, and in this life, she wants to make her more brilliant.

However, Zhou Nan didn't want to see her making out with others on the screen, this was his possessiveness as a man, she was his, and her body and mind should only belong to him.

Therefore, those movies with intimacy scenes will not be chosen for her in the future. But if you want her to become a world-class superstar, it's time to think carefully about what movies to choose for her.

As night fell, the two of them sailed home with some unhappiness, and as soon as they arrived at the docks, they saw the mayor of Entlebuch waiting there with a man and a woman.

"Jonas, this is Mr. Conrad Hilton and his wife from the United States, Hollywood star Sasha Hilton."

Conrad smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, Mr. Zhou, before I came to Europe, I heard about your name in the United States, but I didn't expect that my investment plan this time was also related to you." ”

Zhou Nanleng paused, and Entlebuch introduced: "The conference hall built for the World Economic Forum has received strong support from Mr. Hilton, and at the same time, the hotel there is also built by Mr. Hilton. ”

Zhou Nan understood, and said with a smile: "Isn't Mr. Hilton afraid of losing money?" ”

Conrad laughed and said: "Weggis is a beautiful town, and Lucerne is a tourist mecca that rich people all over the world yearn for. Introduction, this is my wife, Sasha......"

Zhou Nan shook hands with Sasha Garbo and looked at Conrad again, as if he saw the green hat on his head.

This Miss Salsa Garbo is incomparable with the status of several other stars named Garbo, but there is one thing that other stars can't compare. This former Hungarian beauty pageant lady has been married nine times in her life, and her boyfriends are also countless.

Compared with him, there is only one Elizabeth Taylor, and this big star, who has been married eight times, and the object of his first marriage happens to be Conrad's eldest son.

Sasha Garbo shook Zhou Nan's hand with a smile and said, "Just call me Mrs. Garbo, I don't want others to think that my success is because of Mrs. Hilton."

In Zhou Nan's memory, this Miss Garbo has always been just a third-rate star, and she doesn't seem to have any works except for romantic affairs. But hearing her say this, Zhou Nan of course flattered and said, "Mrs. Garbo, your beauty can make the surrounding scenery lose its color. ”

She giggled, her peach blossom eyes making her look amorous. Zhou Nan introduced Audrey to them again, but did not mention that he wanted to make Audrey a big star.

This Garbo herself did not mix, apparently she was not welcomed in the United States because of her nationality. And she is not a good woman, Zhou Nan is afraid that she will take Audrey badly.

Audrey originally had a trace of curiosity about this Hollywood star, but when she saw her amorous appearance, she immediately followed Zhou Nan nervously, for fear that he would be seduced and run away.

The newly built convention center is just outside the ranch, less than a kilometer away from Villa Senal, and will be considered a neighbor in the future. And whether it is a conference center or a hotel, it was started at the suggestion of Zhou Nan, so Conrad's trip had no other purpose, but it just happened to be his meeting, and he heard that Zhou Nan was back, so he came to visit.

Even if there is no purpose, then the conversation is quite relaxed, Zhou Nan took them around the ranch and invited them to dinner at his house in the evening, he cooked himself and made a few Chinese dishes.

After the meal, they were sent away, and the ranch was quiet again.

Etinny was still in Geneva dealing with negotiations with the Red Cross, and Stolko returned home to his home on the outskirts of Zurich after returning home in Zhounan.

Only his family was left in the ranch, as well as Melissa and her servants.

Audrey and Melissa sat in the corner of the hall playing the piano, one big and one young, getting along very well, and laughing happily from time to time. Zhou Nan also relaxed his mind, and did not rush to write the manuscript, while looking at the documents that Yannick had signed at the beginning, and chatting with Kelly and Mrs. Hemstra.

He didn't expect that Yannick would register the company in his own name, and then use five million funds to directly acquire half of the Hoffman family property.

It is equivalent to saying that in the future, Yannick will make half of the money he makes. He just needs to sit back and enjoy the success and have the potential to become the richest man in the world.

Although he didn't care about money, Yannick was still very touched by this.

"Jonas, I've found some clues about Miss Anne that you asked me about last time."

Zhou Nan came with some interest and sat up from the lying position. "Have you found Miss Anne's father?"

"No, not really. I just learned that Miss Anne's name was Anne Frank, and that she originally lived on the Princes' Canal Street outside the Royal Palace in Amsterdam. Her father's name was Otto Frank, and because all his relatives had died, he sold his house in Amsterdam and came to Switzerland. ”

"Coming to Switzerland? Do you know his current address? ”

Mrs. Hemstra shook her head and said, "I don't know, but it shouldn't be a problem for you. ”

Yes, as long as you have a name, it is not difficult for Zhou Nan to find a person.

He thought about it for a moment and went downstairs to make a phone call to Entlebuch, telling him the name of Otto Frank, from Amsterdam, and asking him to check where he was in Switzerland now.

When he returned upstairs, Mrs. Hemstra asked curiously, "Jonas, I already know a lot about Mr. Otto Frank's story, he has been promoting the story of his daughter Anne, but most people are not interested in it, why did you think of adapting Anne's story into a movie?" ”

Zhou Nan asked Mrs. Hemstra to inquire about this matter, just to put the protagonist of Anne Frank's diary on the screen first. Because this role is so suitable for Audrey, as Audrey's first film to enter Hollywood.

First of all, Audrey is the same age as that Anne Frank, and secondly, Audrey also has a background in Dutch life.

What's more, in the era just after the end of the war, the humanistic ideas that can be expressed in this film will be very strong.

In another life, the film was actually shot a little shoddy, and it did not show the anti-war thinking and humanistic care that should be shown at all. Just because of this theme, it received five Oscar nominations and won three awards.

The original heroine of this movie was Audrey, but at that time Audrey was almost thirty years old and rejected the role of only sixteen years old.

But if it is filmed at this time, the reasons of the times, and Zhou Nan can add humanistic feelings and anti-war ideas to the script, the influence of this movie will be greater.

Zhou Nan said with a smile: "Because when I first saw this news in the newspaper, I already realized that this Mr. Otto Frank complained or hated the wrong person. He had been babbling about his misfortunes, the loveliness and pity of that Miss Anne, but it never occurred to him to magnify it. If Miss Anne is a metaphor for the oppressed Dutchman, Miss Anne's beautiful vision for the future is a metaphor for the whole society's yearning for a better life, and the devastation of war on mankind is expressed in more universal values, the impact of this story on everyone will be enormous. ”

Mrs. Hemstra looked at Audrey, who was still practicing, and asked, "Are you sure Audrey can play this role well, but she has never taken acting lessons." ”

"Audrey is talented, and I'm going to write a script that fits her perfectly. makes this role almost true to her, so even if her acting skills are a little worse, she can perfectly interpret this role. ”

Mrs. Hemstra said with some excitement: "Then what can I do?" ”

"Ma'am, actually, I should have changed my mind about your mother. Audrey is a very loveless child, and her father's departure has left her life lacking fulfillment, which is why she cares so much about my love. Your love is also an indispensable element in her life, and I only hope that you can stay by her side forever to take care of her and comfort her, because I have a lot of things to do now, and I can't be by her side all the time. ”

Lady Hemstra nodded firmly. "Jonas, I see what you mean. Although our love for her is different, I also have the strongest love of a mother for her daughter. ”

"I believe, ma'am, then let us create a happy and peaceful environment for her, so that she will be happy all her life."
