China Entertainment: Great directors start by winning actresses

Chapter 299 Another Wonder Woman

But here comes the problem. Now that I have reached a bottleneck in Hollywood, if I want to get more benefits, I naturally need to find a mountain to take refuge in.

And if there is the "Australian Gang" behind him, it will definitely be a big support for Su Zhe.

The cooperation between "Australian Gang" and Su Zhe is undoubtedly a wise choice for mutual benefit and win-win results for both parties.

The little guy Natalie was actually called over by the Australian gang.

Natalie's intelligence was clearly demonstrated at this moment. She was keenly aware of Mel Gibson's intentions and cleverly agreed to his party invitation for Su Zhe.

Throughout the whole process, she remained innocent, as if she didn't know anything about it and simply admired the big star.

Given Natalie's Jewish heritage, she knew this might be a concern for Mel Gibson.

Therefore, her strategy not only protected Su Zhe, but also cleverly resolved potential embarrassment.

When she stepped into Mel Gibson's estate, Natalie couldn't help but marvel at the vastness and grandeur of the estate.

But Su Zhe didn't dare to move at all. After all, he was too young and this little guy was too scheming.
The decoration style in the manor is simple and literary, exuding a medieval atmosphere.

Although Su Zhe had never seen Mel Gibson in person, he could tell from the figure and temperament of the other person that the person coming was none other than Mel Gibson, the current Hollywood superstar!

As the owner of the house and the leader of the "Aussie Gang", Mel Gibson enthusiastically introduced everyone.

"I'm kidding you. Let's go quickly. The figure at the door in front of you... seems to be Mr. Gibson."

After hearing this, Natalie raised the corners of her mouth slightly and replied with a half-smile: "I think it might be more appropriate to buy such a manor in California."

Su Zhe couldn't help but cast an appreciative glance at Natalie. This little girl is really good at handling such occasions. She really understands it. In recent months, this little guy and Emma have been calling daddy every day, intentionally or unintentionally. To seduce Su Zhe.

Although Su Zhe was a little embarrassed, he still smiled and waved to everyone.

The atmosphere of the party was much more formal than Su Zhe expected. As Mel Gibson was introduced, everyone applauded in welcome.

Su Zhe held Natalie's hand and half-jokingly suggested: "How about we come to Australia to buy a manor in the future?"

When Su Zhe and Natalie walked to the fountain in the manor, they saw a tall figure walking towards them.

Natalie has been calling mom in front of Da Tiantian every day these days, and calling dad in front of Su Zhe is not for nothing.

Mel Gibson laughed nonchalantly and pulled Su Zhe to introduce everyone present.

Su Zhe walked into the party holding Natalie's hand and immediately became the center of attention.

He didn't want to make a speech, which would be too harsh and not conducive to shortening the distance between them.

In short, she did it on purpose.

Hugh Jackman was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised.

As a smart girl, she knows how exciting it is to call a man daddy.

"I guess this person doesn't need to be introduced too much, right? The director of "Inception" and "The Shawshank Redemption", Su Zhe!"

The butler responded with a smile: "Miss Portman, if you are interested, you can go hunting in the jungle over there another day."

He did not forget Natalie beside him, turned to her and said: "Miss Portman, thank you for your help."

Mel Gibson laughed loudly and hugged Su Zhe warmly, as if long-time friends were reunited. In fact, the two of them had nothing to do with each other.

Su Zhe thought this was an intimate gathering, but he didn't expect that everyone was dressed so formally. The men wore suits and leather shoes, and the women wore gorgeous evening gowns. It was like a feast of flowers blooming.

Su Zhe laughed and responded: "Mel, you are too outspoken. Just call me Su Zhe."

So, he chose to keep smiling, chatting with everyone, and enjoying the atmosphere of the party.

The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding each other's thoughts.

She exclaimed innocently: "It's so big here!"

Natalie's eyes widened and she asked curiously: "Is that also the Gibson Manor?"

"Welcome! Director Su Zhe, your presence is my greatest honor!" Mel Gibson stepped forward quickly and extended his right hand enthusiastically.

It was getting late, the lights in the manor were dim, and it was really hard to see the man's appearance.

"Mr. Gibson, it is our honor to be invited by you."

The butler replied proudly: "Of course, everything you can see from here belongs to Gibson Manor."

Su Zhe immediately recognized the actor who was about to become "Wolverine" in front of him. He smiled and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Xio. Thank you for your support when our company was listed last time. I heard that you will star in "X-War" recently. Wolverine in "Police," right?"

"Su Zhe, this is Hugh Jackman, an outstanding actor!" Mel Gibson pointed to a tall man with a unique temperament and introduced.

There were more than twenty people present, and many of the faces looked familiar to Su Zhe.

"Pfft!" Natalie rolled her eyes at Su Zhe coquettishly.

Natalie acted reserved and ladylike, bowing slightly and smiling.

It was summer in Australia in April, and even Natalie put on a rose red waist-cinching dress, which made her look even more charming.

In Australia, even in areas with high land prices, the cost of building such a manor will not exceed US$1000 million.

However, in California, even if the estate is far smaller than this one, it may be worth hundreds of millions of dollars, just like Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch.

Su Zhe couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this, understanding what Natalie meant.

Natalie wisely walked towards Anne Hathaway and made room for them to talk.

He answered honestly: "You're welcome. I have to thank Mr. Su for taking care of me. In fact, the filming plan of "X-Men" is still in preparation, and the role of Wolverine has not been finalized yet."

Su Zhe immediately realized his gaffe. He smiled and explained: "Oh, really? That may be because I heard some gossip, but I believe you are definitely the best choice for the role of Wolverine."

After hearing this, Hugh Jackman showed a humble smile on his face: "Thank you for your compliment, Mr. Su Zhe. It is of course an honor for me to have the opportunity to play such a role."

Seeing this, Mel Gibson also joined the conversation: "Su Zhe, are you also interested in "X-Men"? Maybe we can talk about cooperation."

Su Zhe nodded: "Of course, I have always been interested in the "X-Men" project. If there is an opportunity to cooperate, it would be very pleasant."

The three of them continued to talk, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. At this moment, Natalie was chatting happily with Anne Hathaway, bursting into laughter from time to time.

The entire party was filled with laughter and a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Hearing Mel Gibson mention "Hathaway", Su Zhe immediately realized that this was an important reminder.

He followed Mel Gibson's guidance and saw Simon Baker and his wife Rebecca standing not far away.

Both looked very elegant and clearly shared a close friendship with Anne Hathaway.

Su Zhe stepped forward, reached out to shake hands with Simon Baker, and said with a smile: "Nice to meet you, Simon. I heard that you and Hathaway are very good friends."

Simon Baker responded with a smile: "Yes, we are very close friends. Hathaway is a very good person and we all cherish this friendship very much."

During the conversation, Su Zhe learned that Simon Baker is also a talented actor and his works have widespread influence in Australia and even around the world.

They had a very lively chat, and Su Zhe couldn't help but feel more fond of the Australian actor.

Mel Gibson was very happy to see Su Zhe and Simon Baker chatting so congenially.

He knew that such exchanges would not only enhance mutual friendship, but also lay a solid foundation for future cooperation.

In the following time, Su Zhe continued to communicate with the guests present. His humor and erudition won everyone's appreciation.

At the same time, he also learned more about the information and dynamics of the Australian film and television industry from his conversations with them.

The party gradually reached its climax, with music and laughter rising and falling.

Su Zhe felt as if he had integrated into this dynamic and creative circle, which made him full of expectations and confidence in future cooperation.

At the end of the party, Mel Gibson once again expressed his gratitude to Su Zhe: "Su Zhe, I really appreciate you attending my party tonight. Your arrival makes the whole party more perfect."

Su Zhe responded with a smile: "Mel, I also want to thank you for the invitation. This party has helped me gain a lot, and it also makes me look forward to future cooperation."

Su Zhe's understanding of Simon Baker was limited to simple greetings, but he learned that he had been recommended by fellow countryman Russell Crowe to star in "L.A. Confidential."

And he has been developing in the television industry before, which made him have some interest in Simon Baker.

Later, Su Zhe’s eyes were attracted by a beautiful woman. Mel Gibson introduced: “This is Megan, Megan Gale. She is still in college and she previously starred in an independent film “Christmas Vacation.” ”

Su Zhe looked at Meghan Gale and found that she not only had outstanding appearance, but also had a very unique temperament.

He asked curiously: "Meghan, I heard that you are working as a model?"

Meghan Gale smiled and corrected: "Not a graphic model, but a fashion model. I shot a lot of advertisements in Italy this year."

Su Zhe's eyes narrowed slightly, and a thought flashed through his mind.

As a movie fan, he naturally knows the impact of the success of "The Dark Knight" on Warner and DC.

At that time, in the "Justice League" planned to be launched by Warner and DC, the final makeup photo candidate for Wonder Woman was Megan Gale.

Although Megan Gale ultimately failed to star due to various reasons, her image still remained deeply in Su Zhe's mind.

Su Zhe looked at Megan Gale and couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

He feels that Meghan Gale's temperament and image are very suitable for the big screen. If she has the opportunity to enter the entertainment industry, she will definitely perform well.

So, he tentatively asked: "Meghan, are you interested in trying acting? I think your image is very suitable for the big screen."

Megan Gale was slightly startled, obviously not expecting Su Zhe to say that. She thought for a moment.

Then he smiled and replied: "Thank you for your compliment. I do have some interest in acting, but I am still in college and my main focus is on my studies. However, if there is a suitable opportunity, I will consider it."

Su Zhe nodded to express his understanding.

He knows that everyone has their own choices and plans and cannot be forced.

But he also believes that if Meghan Gale has the opportunity to enter the entertainment industry, she will definitely become a bright star.

During the 2009 Writers Guild strike, a film sadly failed to take shape.

When preparations for "Wonder Woman" began, the originally scheduled heroine Megan Gale was replaced by the younger model-actor Gal Gadot due to her age.

As a Victoria's Secret supermodel, Meghan Gale was the face of Australia until her retirement, when Miranda Kerr took her place.

At a certain party, Su Zhe tested Meghan Gale: "Ms. Gale, do you plan to continue to work in the fashion industry...or do you intend to get involved in the entertainment industry?" Su Zhe's words revealed a profound meaning.

Megan Gale chuckled lightly, her eyes sparkling with wit, and she lowered her voice and replied: "Director, your reputation is not very good. I have heard about it even in Italy."

Hearing this, Mel Gibson frowned slightly and glanced at her, looking a little unhappy.

Su Zhe shrugged indifferently and turned to the next candidate. Mel Gibson said helplessly to Su Zhe: "Su Zhe, this kind of thing... I really can't say anything about it."

Su Zhe responded with a smile: "It's okay, Mel, I understand."

Mel Gibson sighed and continued: "It's good for young people to be motivated, but sometimes... they are just too naive.

I’m afraid we won’t invite her to our parties in the future. "

Su Zhe shook his head slightly and said nothing more.

He knew that it was impossible for all the beauties in the world to revolve around him, not to mention that Meghan Gale was still young and had never set foot in Hollywood, so her understanding of reality was still shallow.

Later, Su Zhe introduced another guest: "Su Zhe, this is..."

"Haha, she doesn't need an introduction, Kate, long time no see!" Su Zhe opened his arms enthusiastically and hugged Cate Blanchett tightly.

Cate Blanchett pursed her lips and smiled and congratulated: "Su Zhe, congratulations on your movie's box office success."

Su Zhe blinked and joked: "Which movie?"

Cate Blanchett also responded with a smile: "It's the one you are filming now." Su Zhe laughed after hearing this.

Cate Blanchett is an intellectual woman with both EQ and IQ. Although her appearance does not completely match Su Zhe's aesthetics, Su Zhe also admires her given her friendship with Anne Hathaway.
