"Oh, so this is a plan. Why do I only feel that we are gambling with a sum of money and hundreds of lives?" Cate Blanchett's tone was sharp and fast, with a hint of anger Concerned, he leaned forward and asked, "So, tell me, Mr. Bond, what else can you observe?"
"About you, Miss Linde," Eric said, staring at Kate carefully, "well, your appearance is a problem, and you worry that others will not take you seriously."
"People always think pretty women have no brains."
"That's right, so this girl in front of me disguises herself through masculine clothes, and is more active than other female colleagues in her work, and even a little annoying. What's even more ironic is that her boss will make her feel uneasy because of this. Interpreted as arrogance, so she didn't get any promotions. Also, I usually only speculate on children, but judging by the sarcasm you just ignored my sarcasm about your parents, I daresay you're an orphan."
Cate Blanchett leaned on the back of the chair, although she still had that proud look, but the slight flashes of her eyes in the process of staring at Eric just rightly revealed Vesper Lind's disguise The embarrassment and embarrassment were revealed, and after a moment of silence, she spoke again and counterattacked: "Well, Mr. Bond, judging from your meticulous attire, you should have been to Oxford, and you think people should dress like this, but you But your attitude is so disdainful, which means that you are not from a rich family, and your classmates in school must have left you with some unforgettable memories. This means that you were sponsored to complete your studies, so your temper is not good How nice. Since your first impression of me was that of an orphan, I guess you should too, right?"
"Okay, very good," Eric waved to the waiter not far away, then looked at Kate, and said, "I dare say, Miss Blanchett, if you appear in a pure green screen special effects movie in the future, you will be able to perform well." It's going to be fantastic."
Eric was only wearing a casual t-shirt and khaki trousers today, and just now he just recited his lines from memory very casually, but Kate was able to play against him as James Bond in a suit and leather shoes without any hindrance , and performed flawlessly, this acting skill is absolutely impeccable.
Cate Blanchett put away her emotions, the aura of Vesper Lindt disappeared from her body, she became a little more shy, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Williams, so I... take It's time for the role."
"Of course," Eric nodded, picked up the menu and ordered a lunch casually, signaling Kate to be casual.
Kate suppressed the excitement in her heart, lowered her head and flipped through a few pages of the menu in order to calm down. Only then did she feel like she had understood the menu, ordered lunch randomly, and handed the menu to the waiter. She raised her head and happened to read Seeing the man on the other side looking at herself with a smile and pursing her lips, she still couldn't help asking the question that has been bothering her these days: "Mr. Williams, I have always been curious, why is it me? I mean, I I don't think I have any special place, and I'm not as beautiful as those Bond girls in the past, I don't even understand, how did you find me?"
"The casting of this 007 series has been started since the project was approved last year. I want Vesper Lind to be played by a woman with a classical and elegant atmosphere. In terms of character, she is proud on the surface and fragile in her heart. At the same time , her acting skills also need to be good enough," Eric looked at Kate and explained half-truthfully: "Most of the candidates before you couldn't satisfy me, by chance, I saw you acting in A miniseries called Heartland, and then I thought maybe you could try it."
"Hartland" is a mini TV series that Kate just starred in last year. Of course, she clearly remembers the heroine she played, and some aspects match Eric's description. However, she still finds it difficult Confidence, said: "That's all?"
Eric smiled and said: "If you insist on getting to the bottom of it, well, of course I know more. For example, you were a tomboy when you were young, you liked to wear boys' clothes, and you even shaved your head. After graduating from middle school, you You studied comedy at Mrs. Wayne College for a while, and you were admitted to the University of Melbourne to study economics. After a year, you dropped out of school and started traveling around the world. After returning to Australia, you studied again at the Australian National Academy of Drama. After that, you began to perform in theater and performed with "Cal "Dance of Fuka" won the Sydney Theater Critics Committee Award for Best Newcomer. While performing on stage, you also started to land TV or film roles, but I also know that your first screen show was in Egypt, Universal During your travels, you acted as an audience member of a boxing match in a local TV movie for your travel expenses."
Kate was just a little surprised at first, and then became more and more surprised as she listened to it, until she was dumbfounded in the end.
"So, Miss Blanchett, if you think that I suddenly found you and wanted you to play the role of Vesper Lindt as a bit rash and abrupt, then you are very wrong. What I know about you Far beyond your imagination, several movies and TV series videos you starred in are still in my office, so, do you have any questions?"
"No, no more. But," thinking about it, Kate's face was slightly flushed, remembering some faint lace rumors about the man in front of her, she raised her head and glanced at Eric, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say The opening.
There was still a smile on the corner of Eric's mouth, and he joked: "Are you trying to say that you are actually a lesbian, and let me not get your idea?"
This kind of inhumane privacy was exposed, and Kate showed a slight panic on her face: "Ah, you know all about this?"
"I guessed this based on your information. They are not so bored as to investigate your sexual orientation. And, don't worry, I won't say it. Besides, you are not my type. The only thing I care about is you Can your performance satisfy me?" Eric said, leaning forward, and said: "However, Kate, I can guarantee that you are definitely not Lesbian, you are bisexual at most."
"Mr. Williams, let's not discuss this topic any more."
Eric felt the waiter coming over with his lunch, straightened his body, asked the waiter to put the lunch in front of him, nodded with a smile and said: "OK, let's get back to the point, this movie will start in June, but I hope You can rush to Hollywood in advance to familiarize yourself with the environment, and at the same time cooperate with the pre-promotion of the film, is there any problem?"
Although Kate's character is not strong, she has always been very independent. This kind of dialogue environment where the initiative is completely controlled by others makes Kate feel a little uncomfortable. However, she is not the kind of person who likes to be unconventional, and she is more aware of how rare this opportunity that fell from the sky is. After all, she is still just an ordinary little actor, and she does not have the qualifications of those Hollywood superstars to be unique. After a little hesitation, she nodded and said, "No problem, the TV series I'm starring in can be finished before the tenth of next month, and I can rush to Hollywood then."
Eric nodded and said, "That's it."
Kate hummed, turned to look at the agent Ron Rather who was sitting not far away, summoned up the courage to turn to Eric and said, "Mr. Williams, my agent is over there, you Want to talk to him?"
"No," Eric shook his head, and said, "As for trivial matters such as salary, someone will contact you. Well, if you are in Hollywood, if you want to find a more professional agency, you can go to ICM, just say I ordered, and they will arrange for you."
Kate said weakly, "I think Ron is pretty good."
"I'm just giving you a suggestion, of course you can keep your own ideas," Eric said with a smile, picking up the red wine poured by the waiter, "Then, I wish us a happy cooperation, Kate."
"Happy cooperation, um, Eric," hearing Eric's name changed, Kate also carefully changed to a more intimate title, and then brought the red wine to her lips.
After lunch, Cate Blanchett took her agent to take her leave. Eric did not leave the reporter. He ordered a cup of coffee and read the report on the Golden Globe Awards in the newspaper he had chosen before dinner. The assistant Peter Rich, who came to guard not far away, handed the "dolly" magazine to the other party, saying: "The girl on the cover, find her."
Peter Rich glanced at the baby-faced girl named Miranda Kerr on the cover of the magazine, and nodded. As a top student at Stanford University, he certainly wouldn't be so stupid as to ask Eric how to find him. It's a sign of incompetence, and there is no such person in Eric's assistant office.
However, after hesitating for a while, Peter Rich still asked, "Mr. Williams, what then?"
There must always be a reason.
"Well, I'm going to add a scene where the tennis girl brushes against Bond."
The corner of Peter Rich's mouth twitched. Although Eric said it in a serious manner, he still felt that the reason was a little ridiculous. Is it so simple and rude to pick up girls, boss
Although there was a slight slander in his heart, Peter Rich did not show it at all, and nodded respectfully to indicate that he had recorded it.
"So, Miss Blanchett, if you think that I suddenly found you and wanted you to play the role of Vesper Lindt as a bit rash and abrupt, then you are very wrong.
