Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2208 The beginning of the king of bad movies

The next day Vincent brought Nicolas Cage to the MGM building.

When Nicolas Cage learned that it was Lin Daoqiu who wanted to see him yesterday, he excitedly yelled all night in the room, and didn't fall asleep until midnight.

If it weren't for the fact that their scheduled meeting time was at twelve o'clock in the noon, I'm afraid Nicolas Cage's mental state would not be very good at this time.

If he met Lin Daoqiu under such circumstances, Nicolas Cage was worried that he would leave a very bad impression on him.

After getting out of the elevator, Nicolas Cage and Vincent saw a young man waiting for them in the corridor.

"Hi, I'm Fang Jinsheng. May I ask if this is Nicolas Cage and his manager, Mr. Vincent?"

"Hi Assistant Fang, I'm Vincent, this is Nicolas Cage, you can call him Nick."

Wen Sen quickly introduced their identities to Fang Jinsheng.

Hearing what Wen Sen said, Fang Jinsheng smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with the two of them.

"Mr. Lin is already waiting for the two of you inside, please follow me."

Fang Jinsheng didn't keep Nicolas Cage and Vincent waiting too long, he directly brought them into Lin Daoqiu's office.

After Fang Jinsheng brought them in, Lin Daoqiu stood up from the chair.

Both Nicholas Cage and Vincent saw Lin Daoqiu for the first time in real life, and like everyone else, they naturally showed surprised expressions on their faces.

Because Nicolas Cage looks very old, but he is only 24 years old at this time.

But if you compare Nicolas Cage and Lin Daoqiu, judging from the appearance of the two people, no one will doubt that their ages are reversed.

But fortunately, if Nicolas Cage shaves off his beard, he can still see his slightly youthful appearance. If it is two years later, then the actor can basically say goodbye to him.

"Hi Mr. Lin, I'm Nicolas Cage, you can call me Nick, this is my manager Vincent."

Nicolas Cage quickly introduced himself to Lin Daoqiu.

"Hello, both of you, please sit down and talk."

Unexpectedly, the bad movie king of the later generations is standing in front of him now, Lin Daoqiu thinks this is really interesting.

He invited Nicolas Cage and Vincent to sit down first, and then someone brought coffee immediately.

For Lin Daoqiu's invitation, Nicolas Cage and Vincent are very excited, because as long as Nicolas Cage is lucky enough to participate in the performance of the film produced by Lin Daoqiu, it will be of great help to his film career.

So it is not an exaggeration to say that even if Lin Daoqiu invited Nicolas Cage to film this time without paying him for the film, the other party would agree to take the film without hesitation.

"The reason why I invited the two of you today is that I'm planning a movie recently and I plan to ask Nick to play one of the roles."

Vincent and Nicolas Cage nodded as they listened. From their point of view, Lin Daoqiu wanted Nicolas Cage to play one of the supporting roles, and the roles probably wouldn't be too many, since he was so young after all.

"It is a great honor for us to have the opportunity to participate in the film produced by Mr. Lin. Nick has always dreamed of having the opportunity to work with Mr. Lin. I didn't expect this dream to come true so soon."

Vincent wasn't talking politely, everything he said was true, because that's what Nicolas Cage really thought.

Whether it is "Mission Impossible" or "Home Alone" or "The Mummy", "Godzilla", "1992" and other films, it is no exaggeration to say that Nicolas Cage has basically watched all the films made by Lin Daoqiu. After going through it again, it can be said that Lin Daoqiu is the filmmaker he admires and admires the most.

But what Nicolas Cage and Vincent didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu asked the other party to play not a small role this time, but the male lead of "Captain America".

"Have you heard of the comic "Captain America"?"

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's question, the two of them nodded almost at the same time. As a very famous Marvel comic, Nicolas Cage and Vincent had read this comic to some extent when they were young, and most of the teenagers in North America Boys have the experience of reading comics.

"This time I plan to put "Captain America" ​​on the big screen, and I want to find Nick to play the leading actor."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Nicolas Cage and Vincent didn't respond at all, they just sat there and stared blankly at Lin Daoqiu without saying a word.

Lin Daoqiu found that the other party didn't respond at all after he finished speaking. He thought they didn't hear what he said clearly.

"Need I repeat that?"

Lin Daoqiu looked at the two guys sitting opposite and asked.

Vincent was the first to react. He quickly pinched the thighs of himself and Nicolas Cage, which made them recover immediately.

"No, no, Mr. Lin has to say that your decision is very wise. I have told many people before that if "Captain America" ​​is to be adapted into a movie, Nick is definitely the most suitable person to play the leading role. It can be said that you really picked the right person this time.”

Vincent's words were obviously nonsense. He had never talked with anyone about "Captain America" ​​before, and it was even more impossible to know that "Captain America" ​​would be adapted into a movie by Lin Daoqiu in the near future.

But this does not prevent him from bragging for Nicolas Cage in front of Lin Daoqiu.

Moreover, it would not be easy for Lin Daoqiu to verify these words, so Wen Sen can speak without any worries.

But it is impossible for him to blow Nicolas Cage too far, after all, he is only 24 years old, and he can only be regarded as a rookie actor in Hollywood.

"I'm afraid you two have misunderstood me. I do intend to ask Nick to be the leading actor in this drama, but this matter has not been decided yet, because I'm not sure whether he can support the leading actor."

Lin Daoqiu was not trying to use any aggressive method, but he really thought so in his heart.

If Nicolas Cage's appearance can look younger, then Lin Daoqiu is really not picky about him. After all, the other party's height and appearance have nothing to say, but his appearance looks a bit old.

Nicolas Cage and Vincent, who were originally very happy before, heard Lin Daoqiu's words, and their excitement disappeared without a trace.

Because in Hollywood, sometimes the words are not too obvious, only a general meaning can be heard, but even this can still let them understand what Lin Daoqiu means.

"If he can prove to me that he has the ability to portray this role well, then I may seriously consider giving him the leading role."

Lin Daoqiu does not doubt Nicolas Cage's acting skills, but he is still a little young at this time, so it is normal for Lin Daoqiu to be worried.
