Chapter 196: Temporary agent, the audition time has been changed (for months)

Zhang Xiao clearly remembers that the Joker in the movie "The Dark Knight" on Earth was played by Heath Ledger. After it was released, it became popular all over the world and became the biggest highlight of the movie.

It can be said that Batman Bale has robbed a lot of venture capital. There is no way, the charm of the Joker is too great.

He is unscrupulous, vicious, wise and courageous, and his nerves are a little abnormal.

These are the positioning of the Joker in the movie. Compared with the above, Batman's charm has declined.

So Zhang Xiao said: "Mr. Kevin, can you get me an audition letter? I am also very interested in the role of the clown."

Kevin had investigated Zhang Xiao before and knew that he was a very good actor in China, so he was not surprised when he heard Zhang Xiao asked for an audition letter.

He nodded in agreement: "With the relationship between Chris and me, there shouldn't be any big problem in getting an audition letter."

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Thank you!"

Next, Kevin sent Zhang Xiao to the hotel and went to do his own business.

That night, I got the audition letter and script for "The Dark Knight" for Zhang Xiao, and also thoughtfully helped Zhang Xiao find a temporary agent.

I have to say that Kevin is not only efficient, but also considerate and considerate.

As for the temporary manager he found for Zhang Xiao, she is a Chinese woman in her thirties named Chen Li. She is very capable and has brought out two first-line stars in Hollywood. Even in Hollywood, she is a high-level one.

broker.

The next day, Kevin took people to negotiate with Disney, and Zhang Xiao met his temporary manager Chen Li.

The two made an appointment to meet at the hotel's coffee shop.

After seeing the mature and capable Chen Li, Zhang Xiao smiled and said, "Sister Lili, please excuse me."

Chen Lizai looked at Zhang Xiao carefully and said: "Mr. Zhang, I have watched the movies you starred in, including "Infernal Affairs", "Hero", "Wolf Warrior 2", and "Slaying the Wolf 2".

Do you know what I think of you?"

Hearing what Chen Li said, Zhang Xiao was really puzzled and asked curiously: "What is it?"

Chen Li said: "You are like a piece of rough jade. As long as you are carefully crafted, you will be able to bloom with distant light."

"I generally divide artists into four levels: s/a/b/c. You definitely have the potential of this S level."

Zhang Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Sister Lili, thank you for your appreciation."

Chen Li said very seriously: "Let me be your agent. I have the ability to make you a world-class superstar."

"Sorry!" Zhang Xiao said apologetically: "I already have an agent in China."

Chen Li said very bluntly: "I know you have an agent in China, but I think he is no more than your assistant and not worthy of you at all."

Although she has brought out two first-line stars in Hollywood, when she saw Zhang Xiao, she wanted to become Zhang Xiao's agent and train him to become a world-class superstar.

Otherwise, with her current status, it would be impossible for her to be a temporary manager.

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "This is what I asked for. Sister Lili, please don't waste your time on me. Although this is our first meeting, I can feel that you have strong confidence in your heart."

"A person with this kind of self-confidence often means that she has a very strong ability and a very strong character, and my character is also very strong."

"So, if the two of us cooperate for a long time, I am almost 100% sure that there will be a lot of conflicts between us. A small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days."

After listening to Zhang Xiao's words, Chen Li was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Maybe you are right, being able to have Marvel's CEO personally serve you shows that your identity is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

"

"How could such a person obey his agent's words?"

The fact that Zhang Xiao is the largest shareholder of Marvel is very secret. Except for some senior executives and lawyers of Marvel, it is almost impossible for outsiders to know.

Although Chen Li is doing well in the Hollywood agent circle, there must be at least sixty or seventy agents like her, so she is not qualified to know about this matter.

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Sister Lili, we are all Chinese. I may have some work-related matters in Hollywood in the future. If you are willing, we can always maintain this temporary agent relationship.

"

Chen Li did not answer Zhang Xiao directly, but took a sip of coffee, thinking about this matter in her mind.

After a while, he nodded and said: "Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation."

Zhang Xiao stood up and stretched out his hand, saying: "Happy cooperation!"

After the negotiations were completed, the cooperation negotiations between Marvel and Disney officially began that day.

This kind of negotiation is a very troublesome thing, and the issues that need to be discussed are also very complicated. Zhang Xiao just read a few manuscripts and was a little dazzled by the rules and regulations above.

So he directly called his personal financial advisory team, explained his requirements, and then gave full power to the team to represent him in negotiations.

And he himself was preparing for "Batman: The Dark Knight" alone in the hotel.

The script Kevin got for Zhang Xiao only included part of the script for the role of the clown. Compared with the plot played out on Earth, there were many differences.

It's normal when you think about it. Many directors change the script while filming.

In the peak period of Hong Kong movies, some directors would even write an outline before filming, and then shoot and write wherever they went. Some of them even became classics. I have to say, it is really a miracle.

Two days later, temporary manager Chen Li came to the hotel room where Zhang Xiao was staying.

Seeing her angry look, Zhang Xiao asked curiously: "Sister Lili, what's going on? Who made you so magical?"

Chen Li said angrily: "Who else could be there besides those bastards from Warner!"

Zhang Xiao poured a cup of tea for Chen Li, handed it to her, and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

Chen Li took the tea cup, took a sip, and then said: "They directly changed the audition time to two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. This is obviously targeting us."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly and asked curiously: "What is the reason given?"
