Chapter 167 Baiting
When Li Chen and Richard appeared in front of the guests.
Tim was surprised to find that the two of them were no longer as tense as when they met just now.
Even a little weirdly intimate.
Li Chen saw Nolan in the hall.
Li Chen and Richard beside him smiled and said: "I haven't congratulated you Warner yet."
"I heard that the second part of "Batman" has been approved."
"Nolan's "The Magic" also has a good reputation. It is not difficult to achieve a box office of over 100 million."
Richard was very happy and laughed and said: "Then let me lend you a good word. Come on, let's go and talk to Nuo. Say hello to Lan."
Old Shay standing not far away was confused.
Why does Li Chen look like nothing happened to Richard?
He clearly saw Richard coming with a gloomy face and a menacing look just now.
Why haven’t we seen each other for a while? Richard seems to have changed.
Li Chen and Richard held wine glasses and walked to Nolan's group.
Beside Nolan stood a white man who looked quite similar to him.
If Li Chen guessed correctly.
It should be his younger brother, Jonathan Nolan.
“Nolan.”
Nolan heard the greeting, turned around and saw Li Chen and Richard coming hand in hand.
Holding a wine glass, Nolan greeted Li Chen with a smile: "Li, congratulations, "Insidious 2" won the box office championship."
"My "Fatal Magic" is no match for you."
Li Chen smiled: "It's not the same subject, there's no comparison."
"Besides, I'm just taking advantage of it. Just take advantage of Halloween."
"You are too modest, Li, I just saw Crystal, she was very beautiful tonight."
"I'm still surprised why I didn't see you. It turns out you were with Richard.”
Li Chen said humorously: "I have no choice. Richard, my boyfriend, is here, so I can only put my girlfriend aside temporarily."
Richard and Nolan couldn't help but smile, but Richard I know it in my heart.
Only he knows whether Li Chen considers himself a friend.
Li Chen chatted with Nolan for a few more words, then turned around to entertain other guests.
Out of the hall, Li Chen saw Miss Liu talking and laughing with Mingkov on the lawn from a distance.
The corners of Li Chen's mouth raised slightly.
Ms. Liu is now becoming more and more comfortable in handling this kind of scene, with ease.
“Crystal is becoming more and more mature.”
Tim on the side sighed.
Li Chen said, "Please invite Nolan to my study later."
"Show him the copy of "Inception" to see if he is interested in cooperating."
Tim was a little strange: "Boss, why don't you film it yourself?"
Inception He has also read the script of Dream. It is an excellent script with unrestrained imagination.
Li Chen didn’t explain much to Tim.
He couldn't tell Tim that he plagiarized this script from the Nolan brothers.
If Nolan is not vaccinated in advance.
What if Nolan himself makes "Inception" one day?
That’s hard to explain.
The book "Those Years" he wrote when he first debuted was, after all, a novel. It was the first to be published, and it gained a reputation.
The original author can’t say anything.
Even though the story inside is similar to it, Li Chen changed the name of the protagonist and there are some plots that are not suitable for children.
It’s impeccable.
But "Inception" is different, if you don't take the initiative to show the script to Nolan.
Nolan will never know anyway.
After all, Hollywood does a good job of keeping scripts secret.
Now Nolan is working hard on creating The Dark Knight. The title has been decided first, and even if Nolan is unwilling to take on the project, Li Chen will shoot it himself when the time comes.
“Do as I say, I have my own sense of discretion.”
“Okay, boss, I’ll go now.”
Li Chen walked alone in the direction of Mingkov and Miss Liu.
"Crystal, Li Chen is here." Minkoff smiled while holding the wine glass.
Miss Liu turned around and took a look, smiled and stepped forward to put her arm around Li Chen: "Why are you here?"
Li Chen chuckled: "I chatted a little more with Richard, just now I said a few words to Nolan."
"What are you talking about? I see you are smiling happily."
Ms. Liu said with a smile, "Director Minkoff said, Casting for that drama will begin next month.”
"At the beginning of next year, I will also have several months of martial arts training."
"I said we should train at Crystal Wu, and Director Minkoff agreed."
Li Chen raised his eyes and glanced at Mingkov.
Mingkov laughed and said: "Li Chen, I have no reason to disagree with Crystal's proposal."
"Crystal Wu is a large enough place with strong privacy, and it can save money. A big venue fee.”
"I should thank Crystal."
Li Chen clinked his wine glass with Minkoff and said with a smile, "You really should thank her."
"Waiting for this drama of yours" When it is released, her global popularity may bring you a big surprise."
Mingkoff's eyes lit up: "Then I am really looking forward to this day."
Miss Liu was beside her, looking at her boyfriend with a pair of beautiful eyes full of love.
She knew in her heart that it was not because of her boyfriend.
It is not certain whether she can get this role so easily.
She always pays attention to domestic news.
Since Chenglong announced this project in public, there was only one name missing.
Many people are thinking about this project.
Just listening to Cheng Long, he has asked about Bai Li from Hong Kong Island and Zhang Ziyi from the Mainland.
Miss Liu felt inexplicably melancholy.
No wonder my boyfriend is called the Tang Sanzang of the entertainment industry.
Who doesn’t want to take one bite and become a Buddha and an ancestor immediately?
In Li Chen’s study.
"Tim, what's going on? It's so mysterious, can't you tell it in the hall?"
Tim smiled: "Of course not, Nolan. Can you tell people the script in the hall?" "
"Script?"
"Yes, my boss has a script. I want to see if you are interested in cooperating with it."
Nolan is curious about what script it is. Li Chen found him, why didn’t he take the photo himself?
Nolan put down his wine glass and took a document bag from Tim. After opening it, he saw the name on the cover: Inception.
Nolan looked through it quickly, and the more he read, the more surprised he became.
Half an hour later, Nolan closed the script and praised it sincerely.
"There are rumors from the outside world that Li's scripts are the best in China."
"I have always paid attention to movies such as "Shoplifters" and "New World", which are all based on novel plots. , famous for being fascinating.”
"But this "Inception" allowed me to see his extraordinary imagination."
"This script is very attractive to me, I need to think about it carefully."
" You also know that I won't have time for at least the next year."
Tim was happy: "Don't worry, you can think about it slowly."
He was really hoping that Nolan would refuse. Got this script.
Perhaps by that time, Chiyou had already acquired New Line.
With the strength and foundation of New Line, as well as the ability of his boss.
They can totally make it themselves.
They are not short of money.
