Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2209 Losing weight and gaining weight

What Lin Daoqiu said is very clear. After all, Nicolas Cage is only 24 years old at this time, and Lin Daoqiu is looking for the actor of "Captain America" ​​this time. It is normal for him to be worried matter.

"Mr. Lin, although I don't know if I can meet your requirements, I will try my best to do it." Nicolas Cage is not the kind of person who likes to talk big, basically he talks as much as he has ability, which is considered A very down-to-earth person.

Lin Daoqiu knew something about Nicolas Cage, otherwise he would not have found Nicolas Cage in the first place.

"Before you are ready to accept this challenge, I have one thing to tell you. Since you have all watched "Captain America", I believe you all know that after he is transformed, the figure of this character will be different from before..."

"I mean the show needs you to be a little thinner than you are now, but then I need you to gain weight and go to the gym to match the male lead's body after being transformed. How do you feel?"

At this time, Nicolas Cage's figure is still very average or even a little thin. If his current figure is thinner, it would be in line with the initial figure of the actor in "Captain America".

But after the hero undergoes transformation, Nicolas Cage must use fitness methods to make himself closer to the body shape of the transformed hero.

For ordinary people, it is already very good to lose weight or gain weight, but Lin Daoqiu now requires Nicolas Cage to complete these two things within more than a month.

Vincent turned his head to look at Nicolas Cage. After listening to Lin Daoqiu's words, he also felt that this condition seemed a bit harsh. If he didn't want to, it might be difficult to get the leading actor from Lin Daoqiu's hands.

"No problem, I can do it."

Nicolas Cage didn't even think about it. After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, he immediately agreed. It seemed that he was very confident about it.

But after hearing what Nicolas Cage said, Lin Daoqiu just smiled and said.

"If this film starts shooting, it will cost at least 2000 million US dollars. What if you can't do it by then?"

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said about Nicolas Cage and Vincent, both were shocked, because the money Lin Daoqiu said was almost as much as the total budget of the films that Nicolas Cage had made before.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that the total budget of "Captain America" ​​is about 5000 million, and it may even reach [-] million U.S. dollars."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, Wen Sen couldn't help opening his mouth wide, he could only oh, oh, he didn't know what to say.

The male lead of a $5000 million movie with a budget of $[-] million actually fell on Nicholas Cage's head. Losing weight and gaining weight is nothing at all.

He hurriedly turned his head to look at Nicolas Cage, now no matter what he had to do to get the other party to agree to Lin Daoqiu's request.

"If I can't do it by then, I'm willing to compensate you for all your losses."

Although Nicholas Cage grew up in a wealthy family, it does not mean that he can pay 2000 million US dollars to compensate Lin Daoqiu, but since he dares to say that, it means that he has absolute confidence that he can do what Lin Daoqiu did. Require.

Nodding his head, it seemed that Lin Daoqiu was very satisfied with Nicolas Cage's answer.

"Since this is the case, this clause will also be added to the contract at that time, so you should have no objections."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Lin, please wait a moment, I want to have a good chat with Nick first."

Lin Daoqiu naturally would not refuse, he made a gesture of please.

Vincent hurriedly pulled Nicolas Cage aside. Even if Nicolas Cage couldn't do it, he didn't need to pay the money, but as the other party's manager, Vincent couldn't just agree casually.

"Man, this matter is a bit complicated. If you really can't do it, I think it's better not to add this one."

"Why? Don't you think I can't do it?"

Nicolas Cage looked at Vincent suspiciously, but he was very confident in himself.

"I know that this drama is a fantastic opportunity for us this time, but the more we have to keep calm at this time, although I can't do it."

Vincent's mood is very complicated now. On the one hand, he hopes that Nicolas Cage can win the leading role as soon as possible. After all, this is a super big production with more than [-] million US dollars, and it is also a movie that almost most of the boys love. Having read the comics, and with the support of Lin Daoqiu, there is no reason why the hero of this drama should not become popular.

But on the other hand, Vincent is also worried. If Nicolas Cage can't do it by then, it will be a big trouble.

"Don't worry, I have confidence in myself. This is not only important to you, but also very important to me."

After Nicolas Cage finished speaking, he patted Vincent on the shoulder, and then walked towards Lin Daoqiu.

Wen Sen also knew that Nicolas Cage had made up his mind, and in this case, he could only find a way to assist him to complete this matter.

"No problem, Mr. Lin, this clause can be added to the contract. I don't have any opinions."

Lin Daoqiu was very satisfied with Nicolas Cage's answer. In fact, he deliberately added this one just to put more pressure on Nicolas Cage, not really to prevent anything. If Nicolas Cage can't do it by then, Lin Daoqiu It is enough to change the person, and it is not necessary to reshoot all of them.

"Okay, since you have no objection, then we've made a deal, but before that, you still have to undergo three months of training. If you can meet the standards, you will have a chance to get the leading actor."

Nicolas Cage had not received any professional martial arts and movement training before, and it was impossible for Lin Daoqiu to ask him to go up and shoot directly.

If it is difficult for ordinary people to lose weight and then gain weight in more than a month, then this three-month hell-style devil training may be a huge test.

Lin Daoqiu deliberately left the matter of losing weight and gaining weight behind, making Nicolas Cage think it was a difficult task, but what he never expected was that the real difficulty was actually the three months of training.

"No problem Mr Lim, I'm ready to train anytime, I can't wait to start."

Nicolas Cage looked very motivated, but what he didn't notice was that the corner of Lin Daoqiu's mouth had slowly curved into an arc at this time, and he didn't know what he was laughing at.
