Chapter 99 Come to the door in person

Mike drove very fast along the way with great anticipation.

When he came to the street, he felt better and had the leisure to glance at the street vendors and the posters at the cinema.

This is the largest cinema. Thinking that his movie will be released here soon, he suddenly became very motivated.

"Jincheng Past? When did the cinema start showing Xiaguo movies? Art films? Documentaries? Or romances?"

Mike's attention was fixed on a movie layout. The huge poster occupied half of his vision, and he couldn't help but pay attention to it.

Oh! It turns out it’s a movie directed by Jackman.

Mike smiled when he saw the director's column. He had always wondered when China would become so friendly to Chinese films!

Jackman is a very famous person. He is most famous for the fact that his films all have good box office performance, but none of them has won a best director award.

This is also very strange.

At the very least, he has directed so many movies, at least one of them should win if he was nominated, right?

But no, we just pass by each other every time.

There was some rapport between Mike and Jackman, but not much.

It seems that people in the director circle don’t seem to be at odds with each other, but that’s probably just the way it is!

Ruth and her siblings and their mother came back from watching a movie and turned on the lights.

Mike was sitting by the window, smoking a cigarette with sadness in his eyes.

It seems that going out just now didn't solve his problem.

"My dear, isn't there an old saying in Xia Country that hard work pays off? You can definitely do it."

Mike's wife settled the children, slowly walked to his side, and gently leaned her head on his shoulder.

Give him comfort invisibly.

"I know, thank you, I love you!" Mike kissed her forehead, put his arm around her waist, and they leaned against each other.

"What movie did you go to see? Was it good?"

After a long time, Mike finished smoking a cigarette, seemed to have calmed down, and asked his wives what they had done.

"I watched it. The subject of the movie is quite depressing, but the main character's acting is quite good."

Mike's wife looked up and smiled at him, then told him about the movie she had watched, her thoughts after watching it, and the general plot.

Maybe because her husband is a director, her children were influenced by him and also became interested in directing, and occasionally they even write scripts themselves.

So she perfected the storyline for Mike from a screenwriter's perspective.

"I think Xia Country has outstanding talents. If you really can't find anyone, you can go to Xia Country and you will find the answer."

Mike's wife is not just a screenwriter, she is extremely open-minded and has a very profound understanding. The two complement each other in their careers.

Mike is a typical M countryman, and he has a natural sense of superiority over the Xia people, but he has to admit that his wife likes the Xia people more than he does.

This was true, so the next day Mike packed his things, applied for a visa and bought a plane ticket to the mainland.

One night, Li Yue and Xiao Han were eating fruit, each holding a bowl of fruit salad, sitting in the living room, watching "The Harem" on a projector.

Li Yue is not very interested in TV dramas, but Xiao Han likes them. After living together for a long time, their hobbies seem to have been assimilated!

Even my periods come at almost the same time, one after the other and stop at the same time.

After one episode was over and during the commercial break, the doorbell rang.

The two looked at each other. Who would come here so late at night?

After hesitating for a moment, they stood up and walked to the door, looking through the peephole at the person coming in.

"Cheng Xu?"

Li Yue opened the door a crack and let the person in. He only saw Cheng Xu through the peephole. After opening the door, he saw a foreigner standing behind Cheng Xu.

His unshaven beard, curly hair and protruding belly make him look down-to-earth.

"Cheng Xu, why did you come at this time instead of earlier?"

Li Yue frowned and went to the kitchen to get drinks for people while dragging his shoes.

"This is Mr. Mike, he's here to talk to Xiao Han."

Cheng Xu rolled his eyes. It sounds like who wants to come here so late at night. I don’t even want you to run back and forth!

"There are too many paparazzi during the day, so it's quieter at night."

Cheng Xu said to Xiao Han, and it seemed that he was there specifically to answer her questions.

Xiao Han nodded. Fortunately, she was wearing a lavender vintage silk long dress, which covered her tightly.

Otherwise it would be embarrassing!

The original owner liked to sleep naked, a habit brought from her previous life, but she didn’t like it.

"Oh, my God, beautiful Oriental lady, I hope you will allow me to call you that, you are so charming."

Before Xiao Han could say anything, the gentleman named Mike's eyes lit up, and it looked like he couldn't wait to touch the person in front of him to see if he was real!

The tone and expression are very exaggerated, enmmm, it may also be that foreigners tend to be more exaggerated when expressing their emotions.

Xiao Han twitched his lips in silence and laughed dryly: "Mr. Mike, what's the urgent matter that requires you to see me?"

Xiao Han was obviously not pleased with Mike's compliments, so she asked directly what he wanted.

Xiao Han didn't think it was a common thing for someone to come to his house at night.

What's more, the two of them had never met each other before.

That can only be about some problems at work.

"Oh, I'm sorry to disturb your rest, but I really have something urgent to talk to you about. Just give me five minutes."

Mike came back to his senses with a somewhat guilty expression. Before he met Xiao Han, his impression of her was the picture his wife showed him: she was fair and thin, had clear eyes, and was graceful.

In addition to Xiao Han, there are many female stars in Xia Country, and he went to Huanxing Entertainment Company just to give it a try.

Since he chose to come to this country, he came with a mission, which was to find a suitable second female lead.

When this request was made, the atmosphere was silent for a moment, and Fat Mike rubbed his hands together.

"Please take a seat. This is the food we have here. We can eat and chat at the same time."

Xiao Han made an inviting gesture, and Li Yue brought out some fruits and snacks from the kitchen.

He was able to prepare three steaks in a short period of time, which shows that he is a highly intelligent person.

Mike's chubby body showed his extraordinary agility. He sat on the sofa in a flash, and Cheng Xu was almost bounced up.

Seeing this, Mike smiled awkwardly at Cheng Xu.

It was obviously a serious scene, but for some reason it had a comedic effect. Xiao Han couldn't help but laugh.

"Ms. Xiao Han, this is what happened. I learned your name from my wife. She saw the movie you starred in, "The Story of Jincheng". I happened to be filming a movie and was short of a female role. After watching you, I felt that you were a good fit. I hope you would consider it."

"My full name is Michael Sachs, and I once won the Oscar for Best Director."

Mike went straight to the point. His Xia Mandarin was not very standard and his pronunciation was a bit strange, but he was very sincere.

Xiao Han glanced at Cheng Xu calmly, and when he nodded affirmatively, he knew that this man's identity had been verified.

Otherwise, Cheng Xu would not have brought him to him.

"Thank you for coming all the way to see me. When will your movie start shooting? Do I need an audition?"

Faced with a director who came to invite him personally, Xiao Han couldn't possibly be polite and directly expressed his doubts.

Being able to enter the overseas entertainment industry is a good opportunity now, and she certainly won't refuse it.

"Please rest assured, this role is very important, but it won't take you too long. The filming can be completed in a month at most. I'm the chief director, so there's no need for an audition. If you're willing, you can sign the contract now."

When Mike heard what Xiao Han said, he felt that this matter had potential and immediately became excited. He took out a contract from his briefcase and placed two copies, one in Chinese and one in English, on the table.

It looks like he came prepared.

Xiao Han was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that this prominent figure would be so impatient.

Of course, this also shows that this person is really lacking in this role. Are foreigners all so stupid when it comes to dealing with things?

She raised her eyebrows and watched Cheng Xu and Mike happily sign the contract and see the great director off.

Finally, a rough script was left.

It is said that when foreigners make movies, they only have a general plot, and the rest is up to the actors.

The script was hastily written to cater to the Xia country artists' habit of memorizing lines.

It's outrageous.
