    When Xiao Xuan came to the room, he happened to see David holding his chin and thinking hard, which made Xiao Xuan confused for a while. What surprised Xiao Xuan was that he also saw Christopher Nolan.

    Nolan is one of Xiao Xuan¡¯s favorite directors in his previous life. It can be said that after Spielberg, he is the best storyteller in Hollywood.  I don¡¯t know how many people were confused and inspired by his famous work Memento. Anyone who likes movies must take a look at this classic among classics, a cult classic.

    At the last premiere of Violent Street 2, Luc Besson also invited Nolan to attend, so Xiao Xuan also had a relationship with him. Xiao Xuan likes Nolan very much. He is a talented person, but he does not follow the rules.  of genius.  In other words, geniuses don¡¯t follow rules and regulations.

    "Hi, Martin, Christopher, David, what kind of wind is blowing today? Why did it bring all three of you to my house? It's so rare" Xiao Xuan greeted with a smile.  Although I was confused, I was not too anxious. I thought these three people would definitely explain their intention.

    "Haha, hello, Xuan, call me Nolan. This time I specially asked David to bring me to visit you. Congratulations on your new film's box office success. This year's box office battle shocked us all  " Nolan said with a smile.

    Seeing Xiao Xuan looking at him in confusion, David shrugged his shoulders, glanced at Nolan angrily, and said: "This guy and I have known each other before in England, don't look at me, I'm just making soy sauce today.  "

    Xiao Xuan suddenly realized, no wonder Nolan and David came together. As for the small resentment in David's tone, Xiao Xuan had no idea.

    "Where's Martin? I know you are preparing for your Shutter Island. This is not like your style. You still have time to come to me. Is there anything going on?" Xiao Xuan turned to look at Martin who was reading the newspaper.  Scorsese.

    Seeing Xiao Xuan asking himself, Martin Scorsas gently put down the newspaper.  He took off his reading glasses, wiped them gently with the handkerchief in his suit, and said with a smile: "I am here to discuss the additional funds with you today. Of course, the other thing is that I, an old man, am here to explain to this guy.  guest!"

    Martin Scorsese pointed his finger at Nolan, smiled and shrugged, looking like a lobbyist.

    "There is no problem with funding. I originally wanted to discuss with you whether to increase funding, but what's going on with the lobbyist thing? It's not like the three of you are going to star in a movie. And then ask me to film it? I think I  I'll be happy to do it, provided you don't want any salary." Xiao Xuan said with a teasing smile.

    "Uh you guy, you are willing but I am not willing!" Martin Scorsese laughed angrily at Xiao Xuan's words. This guy really felt that he let himself, Nolan and David be his actors, and even  No pay was allowed, and Martin Scorsese rolled his eyes at this.

    Seeing the old man¡¯s unkind eyes, Xiao Xuan subconsciously touched his nose and laughed dryly.  What he said was really a bit whimsical, but Xiao Xuan became curious, why did Martin become a lobbyist for Nolan?

    As if he knew the doubts in Xiao Xuan's heart, Nolan explained.

    It turns out that after filming White Night, Nolan's next film was originally to be a script for the Howard Hughes biography starring Jim Carrey, and Nolan completed the script and said many times  This script is one of the best scripts he has ever written.

    But just when he wanted to shoot, Martin Scorsese started shooting the subject they wanted to shoot.  That is, the famous The Aviator adapted from Howard Hughes.  So Nolan could only throw the script into the drawer unhappily and start filming a new theme of Shadow of War.

    This incident made Nolan depressed for a long time. In fact, he could have started filming at that time, but Martin Scorsese had a good relationship with him, and he had no reason to cause trouble for his good friend, so he gave up filming.  And Martin Scorsese also owes Nolan a favor. Of course, today's lobbyist is just Martin who happened to hear that they were coming to Xiao Xuan to film a movie.

    But Martin knows that Xiao Xuan now has the starring role in The Twilight Saga 2 to be filmed, as well as guest appearances in Shutter Island and Hachiko¡¯s Story, and he is in contact with John Woo, who may also be filming a new film.

    ¡°And he knew that Xiao Xuan¡¯s film appointments kept coming.  Although Nolan is very famous, he is not necessarily more famous than the directors who invited Xiao Xuan. Therefore, Martin is helping Nolan as a lobbyist this time.

    "Haha, it turns out there is such a relationship. In this case, I wonder if Mr. Nolan can let me read the script first. Of course, if it is inconvenient, you can also tell me the general content  "

    Xiao Xuan knows that Americans sometimes care about copyright, so they often sign the contract first, so he quickly explained it to save the money.Nolan misunderstood that Xiao Xuan had great ambitions for Nolan.

    "Of course, this is the script. It was written by me and my brother Jonathan Nolan. I really hope that Mr. Xiao Xuan can star, and I also invited Christian Bale, Michael Caine and Scarlett to star together.  I think this film will be very interesting, and Bell is looking forward to starring opposite you"

    Nolan took out a stack of scripts from his bag without hesitation and handed them to Xiao Xuan with a smile. He did not believe that Xiao Xuan would steal his ideas. He also admired Xiao Xuan very much, so this time he  I also very much hope that Xiao Xuan can join his new film.

    "Deadly Magic?" Xiao Xuan smiled slightly. It was indeed such a movie. This movie in the past life had a very good box office and a good reputation. It can be regarded as a well-received and popular movie in Hollywood.

    However, in the previous life, Xiao Xuan remembered that Christian Bale as "Batman" and Hugh Jackman as Wolverine came to play the roles. Unexpectedly, Nolan thought of himself in this life, which surprised Xiao Xuan.

    However, Xuan Xiao still read through the script very seriously, and Nolan stopped interrupting when he saw Xiao Xuan's serious look, and continued to drink his coffee. During this period, Ivanka came in with fruits and snacks to entertain the three of them.  Other than that, the room was very quiet. The only sound was the sound of Xiao Xuan turning the pages of the script, which seemed very dull. Everyone had their own things to do.

    Martin Scorsese is still reading his newspaper and taking a sip of coffee from time to time, while Nolan is smoking a cigarette, looking very leisurely. As for the fat David, eating fruits and snacks there, it is obvious that he has a preference for food.  It calmed him down a lot.

    "Pa-" Xiao Xuan closed the script, closed his eyes and twisted his neck. He was silent for a while, then opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, he saw Nolan's expectant eyes. In response, Xiao Xuan said  On his own smile.

    "Nolan, if I read correctly, this should be the Victorian period, right? Do you really think I am suitable? Although I am a bit mixed, I am still a Chinese and an Oriental, which may be a bit different from your script.  Doesn¡¯t it fit in?¡± Xiao Xuan looked at Nolan with a half-smile, pointed at his hair, and shrugged.

    Xiao Xuan's question also attracted Martin Scorsese and David next to him. The two of them also smiled and picked up the script to read it. They found that just as Xiao Xuan said, this is a British background and it seemed not suitable for Xiao Xuan.  Xuan starred.

    Nolan nodded, and then said with a smile: "This requires Mr. Xiao Xuan's cooperation. We have all seen the Twilight Saga you played. I don't think anyone will forget the British-style vampire in it, right? I think the British  No one is more British than you, and a magician is not necessarily British, right? And I value your temperament more. Besides, if you don't mind, I can put more effort into your makeup, and,  Don¡¯t you find it surprising? For example"

    When he said this, Nolan showed a sly look and paused.  Martin Scorsese and David next to him both looked puzzled, wondering what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

    "You mean, let me not announce my joining and have a big surprise?" Xiao Xuan blinked and asked with a smile.  Although it was a question, Xiao Xuan was 70% sure that Nolan definitely meant this. This made Xiao Xuan feel a little excited in his heart, and it was incredible to think about it.

    When the film started, everyone discovered that the starring role was actually Xiao Xuan. This was really crazy, but it also tested Xiao Xuan¡¯s acting skills. If Xiao Xuan¡¯s acting skills are good, he can portray the magician¡¯s temperament and characteristics vividly, and he will  The performance of a British man of that era is so vivid that if the audience agrees with it, it will definitely cause a shock. Of course, this premise is that Xiao Xuan's acting skills are exciting enough.

    "How is it? I don't know if you have confidence?" When Nolan saw Xiao Xuan's eyes light up, he knew that Xiao Xuan understood his plan, and couldn't help asking with a smile.  Nolan is very confident in this.

    In fact, although the era of the film is the Victorian period, the background of the characters is relatively vague, and it is not said that they are British. It was the turn of the century, and the identity of the obsessed magician can confuse everything, but Nolan still hopes to follow the most perfect  There is a way to do it, otherwise, he would not take the risk to come to Xiao Xuan.

    In fact, in later generations, Nolan was very interested in the East and once said that he wanted to find an interesting Eastern actor to star in the film. Unfortunately, no actor caught his eye.

    Chow Yun-fat, Tony Leung and others are very strong, but their European and American influence is not enough, and their ages are inconsistent. However, Xiao Xuan is different and meets his requirements in many aspects. This is why he invited Xiao Xuan.

    "Haha, I have no reason to refuse such a good film, but I think after I finish filming The Twilight Saga 2 New Moon, you know, I have to learn more about British knowledge."Just a moment" Xiao Xuan said with a smile.

    Then he stood up and held Nolan's hands tightly, both of them showing confident smiles.

    Looking at Nolan, Xiao Xuan was thinking in his mind whether he should kidnap this guy to his company. After all, that masterpiece of later generations really made people see what it means to be "supernatural" and what it means to be able to tell a story!

    It can be said that Xiao Xuan¡¯s shooting style was influenced by Nolan, and the reason why Nolan asked Xiao Xuan to star was because he saw an element in Xiao Xuan that he recognized very much.

    So, he wants Xuan Xiao to play the magician-Denton!  To be continued.  If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.
