1627 [Silver Planet]
When Wang Xiaoxian heard Xia Tian introduce his identity as a "fiancee", he immediately laughed happily as if he had eaten a piece of honey.
"Hello Miss Wang~" Andrei Zulasky and Sophie Marceau both greeted her with a smile.
They were not surprised that Summer was so young that she already had a fiancée. Because Sophie Marceau was only eighteen years old when she was with Andre Zulasky.
However, Bastian was surprised to hear Xia Tian introduce Wang Xiaoxian. He had only thought that Wang Xiaoxian was Xia Tian’s female companion, but he didn’t expect that their relationship was closer than he thought.
"I've made a mistake. If I had known that their relationship was so close, I should have been closer to her." Bastian thought, then waved his hand to call the assistant, and then whispered, "Exchange Miss Wang for a special gift bag."
"Mr. Xia, are you the largest shareholder of Columbia Pictures?" Zulasky asked Xia Tian.
"Not bad." Xia Tian nodded.
"Mr. Xia is also the chief art officer of Columbia Pictures, and is also a very outstanding film director. His "Saw" and "The Love of Man and Ghost" both achieved box office results of over 100 million US dollars." Bastian interrupted with a smile, his words revealing respect for Xia Tian.
"Really?! That's really amazing." Zulasky had to admit it when he heard this.
Although he doesn't like commercial films and does not pursue high box office movies, it is quite difficult to know that a movie can sell over 100 million US dollars.
Summer looks very young, but there are already two works with a box office of over 100 million US dollars. It's really not easy.
"So it turns out that "The Love of Man and Ghost" is Mr. Xia's work? It's really good." Sophie Marceau praised with a smile.
"Why, Sophie, have you seen this movie?" Zulasky asked in surprise.
"Yes, it was released in France in November last year. I wanted to go with you at that time, but you were busy writing scripts, so I had to go alone." Sophie Marceau nodded, "To be honest, it was really good, I was crying when I watched it."
"Thank you." Xia Tian nodded. He was in a very good mood when he was praised in person by such a beautiful woman.
...
"So that's it." Zulasky nodded, then smiled at Xia Tian, "Mr. Xia, you are a film director and a shareholder of the film company. I believe you should be very interested in investing in movies, right?"
After hearing what he said, Bastian's face immediately showed a playful expression.
Xia Tian was stunned, then smiled and nodded, "Mr. Zulasky, I am indeed very interested in investing in movies."
"That's great. I wonder if you have ever heard of the science fiction novel "Silver Planet"?" Zulasky nodded and immediately asked again.
Xia Tian shook his head. To be honest, he is not very interested in science fiction novels, but he prefers online novels.
"Silver Planet was created by my uncle Jay Zulaski. There are three in total. They are very classic science fiction novels, no less than "2001 Space Odyssey". "Zulaski explained.
"2001 Space Odyssey" is also a classic science fiction novel, created by the well-known British science fiction novelist Arthur Clark. In 1968, Warner Pictures adapted it into a movie, which is the eternal classic work in science fiction history "2001 Space Odyssey".
Since its birth, "2001 Space Odyssey" has been hailed as the "best science fiction movie". It ranked 28th among the "Best 100 Films in Film History" selected by Entertainment Weekly, and the classic can be imagined.
Zulasky now compares "Silver Planet" with "2001 Space Odyssey", which is undoubtedly a great temptation for investors.
After all, which investor doesn't want to invest in a classic production by himself, and which investor doesn't want to leave a fortune in film history?
"Is it really that good? Then I must buy it and take a look." Xia Tian smiled.
"Yes, I promise you." Zulasky nodded, "Actually you don't have to buy it. I have a set of it, which is a sample magazine from that year, and it also has my uncle's signature. If Mr. Xia is interested, I can lend it to you for a few days first."
"How can you be so embarrassed?" Xia Tian waved his hand and said, "That precious book should be collected well. I'd better go to the bookstore to buy a set."
"You have to be welcome, Mr. Xia." Zulasky said quickly, "Books are for reading, so that they can realize their greatest value."
"Okay then." Xia Tian nodded.
"Then I'll send it to you tomorrow. You live there..." Zulasky immediately asked again when he saw Xia Tian agree.
"Hotel Martinez." Xia Tian smiled, "I will tell the front desk."
"Ah, OK." Zulasky nodded.
Hotel Martinez is the most luxurious hotel in Cannes. It was built in the 1920s and was a vacation destination for European dignitaries in the early years. It has the largest private beach in the area, a two-star Michelin restaurant and invincible sea views.
Because of history and humanistic, the hotel has always been expensive. For example, the premium suite on the top floor costs 100,000 francs per night, so it is really not allowed to enter the hotel without rich people.
...
"By the way, I want to ask, does Miss Sophie Marceau have a schedule recently?" Xia Tian asked again.
"I'm recently filming "The Feeling of Heart" with Director Claude Birnold," Sophie Marceau explained, "Why, Mr. Xia, do you want to invite me to film?"
"I have this plan." Xia Tian nodded.
"What's that story? Please forgive me for offense. If the script is not appropriate, I don't think I will star in it." Sophie Marceau said.
Xia Tian was stunned when she saw her talking so directly. You should know that in his identity, if he wanted to invite anyone to film, even if he didn't want to, he would not refuse directly in front of him, but would find a suitable reason to turn it over.
Sophie Marceau is really bold enough. He dared to say this to him, and he was afraid that he would get angry at all. It was indeed interesting.
"Hmm..." Xia Tian hesitated for a moment, "I wonder what kind of movie you want to make?"
"I want to play some breakthrough roles, not just be a good girl," Sophie Marceau said expectantly.
Although she debuted as a pure and innocent girl, she disliked this image the most. She looked pure but had a wild heart and wanted to play some roles that could release this emotion.
But unfortunately, in recent years, the role of pure and innocent jade girl has come to her house. For example, in this movie "The Feeling of Heart", she played a female college student and talked about love with a pop musician.
