Chapter 826: Where to Find a Soulmate at the End of the World

Don't look at this period of time, Hollywood filmmakers shouted at Xu Jiaren.

But there are not a few people who contact him privately, even Di Shini, who shouts the most, has secretly contacted him.

Robert even gave favorable conditions and wanted to cooperate with Xu Jia.

It's a pity that Xu Jia sold it to Kevin, which calmed the latter's restless heart because of this project.

Obviously, in the case of a competitor's bid, Warner can really realize the importance of Jiaxing as a partner.

It's a pity that "The Biography of Oppenheimer" is a completely white film, there are basically no Asian characters, and there are not many scenes, so Xu Jia will save himself from stuffing his own people into it, and he can't do it.

"So what do you think? Who do you plan to work with? Nolan curious.

He still didn't know much about Xu Jia before, and he was only a newly rising entertainment upstart in the Far East, but after this period of contact, he gradually learned about the legend of the other party and his views on his own movies, and he regarded him as a confidant.

"I don't plan to cooperate with anyone, I will shoot this movie as a sole proprietor, just to gag the mouths of those people, even if we dominate the "Megalodon" series, in the eyes of those people, it will only be a bargain for Warner, and now they can't say that, right?" Xu Jia sneered.

Don't think that this title is not important, in ancient times, wars also paid attention to a division to be famous, not to mention that as an outsider, making money with co-productions is luck in the eyes of most people after all, only by using a sole proprietorship project to hit the box office data in their faces, they will admit that this man from the East is indeed a cow.

As the two spoke, Kirian Murphy knocked on the door and walked in, looking very cramped.

Although the latter has been in the film and television industry for a long time, and there are many popular roles, it is still a little worse in the international film industry, and most of the previous cooperation with Nolan was a supporting role, and this time he can have the opportunity to play the leading role, for Murphy, it is tantamount to a happy event from heaven.

"You just show your normal state, as long as you can play the character of Oppenheimer well, I guarantee that no one can take the role from you."

Xu Jia's voice was raised, and it could be heard through the crowd waiting outside the audition, and there was a commotion for a while, and he continued: "In my place, I only look at the fit with the role, not the background, capital, and relationship, and do the actor's job well, and I will give the role to whomever I want." ”

After all, the main roles have been selected, and Xu Jia still gives a considerable degree of freedom in the supporting roles, in order to stimulate the potential of these interview actors, he doesn't mind giving these people a little hope.

"Hehe, I guess those actors outside will have to do their best when they come in later." Nolan said with a smile, he had no objection to Xu Jia's approach.

As a director, my favorite is this kind of investor who doesn't look at background, capital, and relationships, and only selects actors according to the fit of the role, which is also a great cooperation with the director's work.

And Cillian Murphy heard Xu Jia's words, and his expression gradually became solemn.

Obviously, whether he can get the leading actor depends on the next audition.

"Albert, when I came to you with those calculations, we thought it would set off a chain reaction that would destroy the whole world."

Cillian Murphy looked at the two of them with inexplicable emotion in his eyes, "I believe we did it." ”

The other party's brown-orange pupils seem to reflect the deep lake, and the chain effect of the chain reaction means that it will bring earth-shaking changes to the world.

Xu Jia glanced at Nolan beside him, who leaned forward and was staring intently at Murphy's performance.

Everyone can see that Nolan is impressed.

Although the latter was reluctant to admit it, he was still moved by Oppenheimer, played by Murphy, a role that originally seemed to him to be the most difficult to find, but unexpectedly it was the first to be confirmed.

"Xu, you won."

Nolan admitted defeat, but the corners of his mouth rose, and he looked at Murphy: "Congratulations, you are my Oppenheimer, ready to sign a contract, I have been a supporting actor so many times, and I should be the protagonist once." ”

Murphy was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly bowed to Nolan and Xu Jia, and said sincerely: "Thank you two for being willing to give me this opportunity, I will not let you down, I will do my best to shape the role of Oppenheimer." ”

When Murphy left, the auditioners in the back came in one after another.

Nolan was surprised to find that all the actors appointed by Xu Jiaqin were actually the most suitable candidates for the role from all aspects, and he was lying flat at the end.

"Hey, Xu, otherwise you can give the entire casting list, and it will save time, we can start filming just by doing a script reading." Nolan said.

He couldn't wait to use Xu Jiaqi as the casting director for all his future works, but thinking of the other party's wealth and career, he still dispelled this idea.

"Then you think about it too much, of course this kind of work has to be done by you, the director, and this time can't be saved." Xu Jia shook his head, rejected Nolan's proposal, and said with a smile: "I suggest that Oppenheimer, like Dunkirk, be shot entirely on large-format film and then shown on 70mm film, so that you can feel the 3D effect without glasses." ”

Since "The Dark Knight", the other party has been used to shooting with IMAX cameras, so Xu Jia didn't wait for the latter to say anything, and took the initiative to mention it.

In Nolan's view, this is simply a drowsy and handing over a pillow, I have never seen such a tacit investor with such a tacit understanding, for a director, it is like a treasure knife meets a scabbard, a cool batch.

"Xu, I swear, after the end of this movie, if I have the chance, I am willing to continue to cooperate with you." Nolan said excitedly.

"It's enough to have your words, I'll leave it to you here, I have to go to another crew, you know, they don't have you to reassure me after all, I have to keep an eye on it." Xu Jia said.

A casual compliment once again made the other party's face bloom with a flower-like smile, Nolan knew that in another crew, there was a talented director who was not inferior to himself.

Xu Jia was also secretly happy in his heart, and he did not waste himself in vain to imperceptibly behave in front of Nolan, and the interviews he had seen in his previous life were used perfectly, so that he was regarded as a confidant by the latter.

It can be seen that even after the end of "Oppenheimer", as long as there are no major differences between the two parties, it is only a matter of time before they work together again, which is equivalent to tying Nolan to his chariot, and it can be said that if he wins Nolan as a director, he will be able to gain a firm foothold in Hollywood.
