Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 344 Film Interviews
In Los Angeles, the drizzle outside the window brought some coolness to the scorching heat.

Unlike the bad weather outside, the lounge of a star hotel is extraordinarily comfortable and cozy.

"How long has it been since the Lakers were beaten 2-0? I have to say, you guys did a great job! It should be a long memory for them. The fight was too rough." Nicholson sat opposite Li Weisi, full of interest Said to Li Weisi.

"Oh? Aren't you a Lakers fan? You actually support the Warriors?" Seeing what Nicholson said, Li Weisi wondered.

"Support the Warriors? No, no, how could I possibly support the Warriors? I just hope you can teach the Lakers a lesson. They have no sense of crisis and need to be beaten. Of course, the final victory will still be the Lakers!" Nickel Sen denied what Li Weisi said, and he seemed extremely confident when he spoke, as if the Lakers were within easy reach of victory.

In this situation, Li Weisi frowned. Is this guy a fake fan?Where does such confidence come from?

"Crack!" Just as Li Weisi was about to refute, the door of another suite in the lounge opened, and Marisa walked out with a smile on her face.

As he came out, he said to a man with a long face and a strong depressive temperament who came out with him, "Thank you, Director Burton!"

"You're welcome, just call me Tim!" the young director said coolly.

This young director is the well-known Tim Burton in later generations. He was just 30 years old at this time, but his reputation as a genius has long been recognized by the industry.

Although he was withdrawn and had poor academic performance since he was a child, he loved painting and movies. He directed his first short film "The Island of Dr. Moreau" when he was 13 years old.

At the age of 85 in 27, he directed his first film "The Adventures of the Ridiculous Little Bastard", which made him famous in one fell swoop.

Come this year, with the release of his new film "Beetlejuice" and the upcoming "Beetlejuice", it can be said that he has established his dark film style.

The reason why I met Marisa today is mainly for the casting of the new movie "Batman".

This action movie is the latest action sci-fi film confirmed by Warner Corporation. In fact, Warner Corporation originally planned to make "Batman" into a high-cost comedy TV series. Finally, because of Frank's opposition, it was changed to the current one. Appearance, also handed over the director of the film to Tim Burton.

Yes, now Frank has successfully become a shareholder of Warner Corporation by relying on his financial ability, and has a certain right to speak.

And the reason why he was able to change Warner's mind was that he was willing to pay for the filming of this movie. With the impact of the stock market crash last year, many companies whose capital chains were impacted, and Warner was no exception. Now someone is willing to pay 2000 million How could Warner not accept the dollar to make a movie with Warner.

It is also true that Frank's right to speak in this movie has also increased, so that he can not only decide the director, but also the heroine.

Today's interview itself was just a formality. Bolton knew this well. Even though he was actually more optimistic about Kim Basinger in his heart, he could only bow to dirty money for his job as a director.

Fortunately, Frank himself did not intervene too much. He only appointed the heroine and a small supporting role. Frank did not interfere with the other leading actors and supporting actors. This made Burton feel a lot better.

After all, the heroine of this movie is a vase, whoever comes is the same, but the real soul is Batman and the Joker.

Regarding the candidates for Batman, he interviewed many people, including some big-name stars, such as: Alec Baldwin, Charlie Sheen, Bill Murray, Pierce Brosnan and so on.

But in the end he chose Michael Keaton, who had worked with him before.

As for the role of the clown, he also interviewed many people, but none of them were ideal. It was not until then that Frank recommended Nicholson, the great actor, to him.

"Sorry, Mr. Nicholson, for keeping you waiting." When he came to the lounge, Bolton found that Nicholson had arrived, so he hurried forward to apologize.

Although he is a director, his little director cannot be compared with the Oscar winner.

"Haha, it's okay, Director Bolton, I just arrived too, and I had a great chat with West!" Nicholson stood up from the sofa, shook hands with Bolton, and said generously.

"Where did we have a good chat?" Li Weisi wondered from the side, thinking to himself.

"That would be great, shall we talk now?" Bolton suggested.

"Okay!" Then Nicholson said to Li Weisi and Marisa: "Then feel free, I'll go in first!"

"Okay, goodbye!" Marisa said first.

When the two of them entered the room and closed the door, Marisa breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly pulled Li Weisi to sit down.

"I'm so nervous, I almost can't breathe." Marisa took off her disguise and complained to Li Weisi.

"Is that an exaggeration? Haven't you participated in a movie interview?" Li Weisi asked puzzled.

"Can it be the same? This is the first major commercial production I have come into contact with!" Marissa gave Li Weisi a white look, but then she also came to her senses.

But even so, she still thanked Li Weisi from the bottom of her heart, because he knew that if it wasn't for Li Weisi, the heroine of this movie would never have been in his hands.

The day before yesterday, her agent told her that Warner Bros. had a new film to start shooting and asked her to go to the lead actress interview. At that time, the agent was even more excited than Marisa, claiming that she almost thought she had encountered a liar. After repeated confirmation, she was sure. The news is true.

However, compared to the agent, Marisa seemed much more normal. Although she was also surprised, she knew that it was Frank's handwriting.

Later, she learned more about the industry through her agent, which confirmed her idea.

Therefore, she flew to Los Angeles with Li Weisi yesterday, and made an appointment with the director today.

Although she knew the inside story, she was still very nervous when the interview was approaching. In the end, she had to drag Li Weisi, who had finished training in the afternoon, to the hotel together.

"Let's go back!" After chatting with Li Weisi for a while, Marisa felt that her heart was much calmer, so she pulled Li Weisi to leave.

"What are you thinking?" However, Marisa found that Li Weisi was actually absent-minded.

"I'm thinking, what Nicholson said, is he unfounded confidence or is he really relying on it?" Li Weisi said to himself.
