Chapter 689 Emma's Request
Emma Watson deliberately wears light makeup on her face. ≥≯ Wang is dressed in a plain white long dress and fashionable leggings beach sandals, dignified but with a bit of a queen's sharpness, paired with a touch of red lips, playful and enchanting. However, when she pressed the doorbell, her expression was not as calm as Hermione's, but rather unnaturally anxious.
Yes, people always associate her with Hermione.
If she was in a movie, most people would never say "Look, that's an Emma Watson movie!", but rather "Look, it's Hermione!" …
Emma became famous when she was young, but like other Harry Potter teenagers, she didn't have any outstanding performances after she came out of this series.
For her, this life is destined to be bound to the role of "Hermione Granger". When she was 10 years old, she beat thousands of girls of the same age to win the role of Hermione. In view of the huge influence of the movie "Harry Potter", it is no exaggeration to say that it will be difficult for her to shape the screen image of the character "Hermione Granger" in her acting career for a long time to come up.
For an actor, this weakness is fatal.
However, the cooperation between Future Group and Warner Bros. gave her hope.
Now the outside world is hotly discussing this first film shot with VR technology, which lucky ones will be named on the cast list.
There are many actors under Warner Bros., and everyone wants to get the chance to play this time. And Emma can only be regarded as one of them at most. Although she has a good reputation, she has never won an Oscar, so she is not yet a first-line Hollywood movie star.
It is very difficult for this film to compete with its peers.
But she's not out of luck either.
Considering her cooperation with Future Human Bio in the endorsement of nutritional supplements, if the request is made by the Future Human Group, Warner Bros. will definitely seriously consider the partner's idea. Although this kind of large-scale movie with an investment of nearly 100 million U.S. dollars, it is definitely not her turn to be a hero or heroine, but she still has the strength to compete for a supporting role.
Yesterday, the agent talked to her and hoped that she could win this opportunity. Her manager even hinted that she should take the initiative to talk to Jiang Chen about this...
God, this is insane!
For her with a strong self-esteem, this was a request that was simply unacceptable to her. She has always worked hard to package herself as a spokesperson for feminism and run around for the cause of political correctness.
While she was thinking wildly,
The screen at the door lit up.
"Excuse me, what's the matter?" Jiang Chen asked pleasantly.
Taking a deep breath, she adjusted her emotions, looked at Jiang Chen on the screen and smiled.
"Will you not invite me into the house?"
Jiang Chen made a dazed expression, and smiled kindly.
"I was negligent."
With a click, the iron door opened.
Looking at the open iron gate, Emma took another deep breath, and walked into the courtyard with her bag.
Through the path paved with marble tiles, Emma was about to knock on the door, but the door opened by itself.
The door was opened by a beautiful girl. She has curly brown hair and a pair of sapphire-like eyes.
"Hi, I'm Emma Watson..."
"Ayesha," the girl blinked, and after introducing herself, she turned and moved out of the way, "Please follow me, the master is waiting for you in the living room."
...
Although she had met Jiang Chen at the party and knew about his easy-going personality, she still felt a little nervous sitting on the sofa opposite him.
The girl named Aisha poured her a cup of black tea. After saying thank you, she lightly pursed her mouth and looked at Jiang Chen. However, when she met Jiang Chen's eyes, the speech she had prepared was temporarily forgotten.
"Is the black tea good?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile, dissolving her embarrassment.
Emma nodded quickly and said.
"Very tasty."
"I don't think Miss Emma came to see me because she wanted to have afternoon tea with me. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Hands clasped tightly, thumbs entangled in knees. Finally making up her mind, Emma looked at Jiang Chen with her confident eyes and made her own request.
"I hope to be in 'The Iron Curtain of Time'."
Jiang Chen looked at her suspiciously, spread his hands and said.
"The virtual image company under the Future Group is only responsible for providing technical support, and does not participate in the filming of "The Iron Curtain of Time". If I remember correctly, the location of the mirror should be in Los Angeles."
"I've been in the sight glass a few days ago."
"Oh? What's the result?" Jiang Chen asked.
"There is no news yet." Emma said with some embarrassment.
Jiang Chen did not answer her request, but asked seemingly irrelevant questions with great interest.
"Have you read that book?"
"Yes." Emma nodded.
Future People Technology has bought the copyright of "The Iron Curtain of Time" from Li Ming. You can download the e-book on the official website of Future People Technology, and you can also read it online.
"Then, which character in the book do you think is more suitable for you?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
"The role of my mirror is the deputy captain, but there are many people competing for this role, I am worried that I will lose the election..."
Instead of going to Warner Bros., but to talk to the partner with Warner Bros., this is undoubtedly suspected of going through the back door. For her with strong self-esteem, making such a request is really hard to say.
But thinking that this role is really important to her acting career, she still made up her mind and said that sentence in a sincere tone.
"I hope you can help me."
Clever, wise, brave, human supremacist, British ancestral home, with many labels in one, the female deputy captain named Jennifer can indeed be said to be tailor-made for Emma. Jiang Chen, who grew up watching "Harry Potter", was also very interested in seeing "Hermione" appear in the film he invested in.
However, she really didn't expect that this self-respecting "Miss Hermione" would bow her head and beg him. Sure enough, as revealed by the evidence listed by some media, is the image of a feminist she strives to create just a package?
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn't help looking at Emma playfully.
Don't get me wrong, he doesn't have the slightest malice, just pure evil!
"How do you want me to help you?"
Emma's fair and pretty face turned red, and even the eyes under the high brow bone flickered a little awkwardly.
"I……"
"Me?" Jiang Chen asked knowingly.
"I hope you can help me convince Christopher to choose me to play the role of Deputy Captain Jennifer." Yu quickly said this sentence that she would never say before, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground to slip in.
Jiang Chen looked at Emma with a half-smile.
"And what about the other actors who competed fairly for the role? The last time I heard from Christopher, Kristen Stewart, who voiced Bella in The Twilight Saga, was cast for the role as well."
"Hollywood mirrors rarely have fair competition, except for supporting roles." Emma defended in a low voice.
It can be seen that she is not very good at asking for help.
"Oh? So Miss Emma wants to go through the back door from me?"
Emma's fair face was so red that it was about to bleed, and the red lips that were biting lightly were a little blue.
"I can help you." Jiang Chen said.
"Eh?"
Emma froze.
She originally thought that Jiang Chen would come up with some exaggerated reasons, and she was even ready to turn around and leave. However, Jiang Chen's words were beyond her expectations, and he agreed to do her this favor without any additional conditions.
Seeing the stunned expression on Emma's face, Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
"Any questions?"
"No, no." Emma shook her head like a rattle.
After a pause, she added in a low voice.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome." Jiang Chen smiled, "After all, you have signed a long-term endorsement contract with Future Life, and your increased influence will also benefit us. And I am also looking forward to your performance."
The apprehension and tension were swept away, and the confident smile returned to Emma's face.
"I will not disappoint your expectations."
It was also the first time since she pressed the doorbell, Jiang Chen saw Hermione's shadow on her body.
...
After Emma left, seeing Aisha looking at him curiously, Jiang Chen smiled and stretched out his hand to rub her cheeks.
"What are you thinking about?"
"It's a bit strange." Aisha tilted her head, obediently enjoying Jiang Chen's touch.
"strangeness?"
"You didn't ask her anything else."
"...Am I that kind of person?" Jiang Chen glared at Aisha, dissatisfied.
Just kidding, young master, am I such a beast?
... Well, I admit that the offer is indeed tempting.
At this moment, Emma, who was standing at the door of the villa, looked back and whispered.
"Strange guy."
Shaking her head vigorously, she flagged down a taxi and disappeared at the end of the street. (To be continued.) 8
