Chapter 140 Heroine [1/3]
"Mark, I didn't expect to meet you. I think you should do your program in the dormitory." Natalie Portman said with a smile.
Every frown and smile gives people a feeling of being a bit far away but not out of reach, which makes Chen Tian unable to help but think of the comments given to her by later media.
A serious and sensitive girl, a typical person with outstanding abilities, only people in her circle are similar to hers, with an exotic style, seemingly unruly but quite elegant, but in the entertainment industry, but also wandering in the entertainment industry.
“There was a dance party tonight, and then I happened to meet a friend from Los Angeles and brought him to the library to check it out.
I didn't expect you to go back to school after graduation. Senior Natalie, I think you must be interested in meeting my new friends." Mark Zuckerberg's words aroused Natalie Portman's interest.
Although she and Mark Zuckerberg are not particularly good, in her social circle, Mark Zuckerberg, who is two times younger than him, has already made mistakes with her good friend.
Natalie Portman turned around and wanted to see who the person Mark Zuckerberg said was very interested in.
Most people would not be interested in her. She recently returned to Boston and suddenly wanted to read some sociology books, so she came to the Widner Library.
When Natalie Portman turned around, she saw Chen Tian standing beside her for the first time.
"Justin Chen? I think I should have admitted my mistake. Are you and Mark friends?"
Natalie Portman could not connect Chen Tian and Mark Zuckerberg together.
"I didn't expect you to recognize me, which means that my fame should be good." Chen Tian said with a smile.
Mark Zuckerberg laughed: "Okay. What I want to introduce to you is Justin.
You are the super actor and Justin is the director of miracles.
Maybe you can communicate. Maybe you still have a chance to cooperate.”
"If you have the chance, I will definitely not refuse."
Chen Tian shrugged and looked confident with a smile.
Natalie Portman's natural but unpretentious smile made Natalie Portman have a good first impression of Chen Tian.
"This sentence is very attractive to me. Everyone knows that Natalie is very good at choosing scripts. I can understand this sentence as I believe that my script will definitely be excellent for you, right?"
Chen Tian’s words sounded half a joke, but his every move and tone were full of confidence.
Natalie Portman looked at Chen Tian. At least this short minute of contact made her feel that some news in the newspaper was not completely messy.
She has also watched "Buried Live" and "Hard Fruit Candy" directed by Chen Tian. She did not follow the crowd of these two films.
At first she didn't believe how great these two low-cost films were. When she went to the theater, she realized that the excellence of these two films was completely beyond her imagination.
They are all single scenes, and they rely on language to promote the plot. The actors' acting skills are all first-class performances.
No special effects, no big-name actors, and the low and outrageous cost.
However, it was this how these two films moved her. There were not many videos that could impress her, but Chen Tian did all of them.
The title of director Miracle added to Chen Tian's head by the media is not an exaggeration in the opinion of Natalie Portman at least for the time being.
Natalie Portman smiled and said, "At least your first two videos give me this feeling. If you have such an excellent script, I hope you can consider me."
"This is what you said! Just don't refuse me then." Chen Tian responded with a smile.
Mark Zuckerberg quipped with a smile: "You two seem to have a lot to talk about.
Or do I give Justin to you, and he and his friend Valz need to go to the library, do you want to go too?"
Natalie Portman glanced at Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chen: "Mark, you should leave in advance. I just happened to go to the library to read some information."
"OK, I'll come back later!"
"Mark, I'll disturb you tomorrow. I'll go directly to the library and have a lot of information to get medicine and check it out. I won't go to the dance party, so I'll call you tomorrow."
Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chen took Chen Tian and Waltz into the library. After saying a few words to the library administrator, and with the testimony of Natalie Portman, a well-known alumnus, Chen Tian and Waltz were released.
Christopher Walz is almost fifty years old. Although Chen Tian and Natalie Portman just met, they are two young people after all, and he doesn't want to influence Chen Tian and Portman.
"Justin, I'll go to the historical district and call me when I leave."
Chen Tian nodded and Valz left immediately.
After Walz's departure, Chen Tian and Natalie Portman were left behind.
The eye-catching sign at the entrance shows: "Please respect others, turn off the alarm of the mobile phone, and pager."
The entire library gives people a sense of tranquility and comfort, and the aroma of books is particularly rich, which is far from comparable to that of Southern California.
"I need to go to the sociology, and Mark just said you want it too, together?"
Chen Tian nodded. People who were reading books were seen everywhere in the library, and they seemed to be immersed in the world of books.
I took the elevator to the fourth floor sociology floor, where there were much fewer people than below.
Chen Tian brought a detailed sociological research and sat down, and Natalie Portman quickly brought a book.
It was not too far from Chen Tian, and it was just opposite Chen Tian.
The lamp on the table emitted light, making Chen Tian feel like he was back to his childhood.
Although "This Man from Earth" is an adaptation, it contains too much information.
Although there are later films, Chen Tian easily wrote the script.
I have also analyzed the film many times in later generations, but there is still some difference between the analysis and the one I want to shoot. One is the view of the reader and the other is the view of the director.
This film contains discussions in history, biology, psychology, physiology, sociology, religion, etc. If you do not have some understanding of this knowledge, then by imitating later generations, all you get is a body without showing a true soul.
That was not what Chen Tian wanted, so Chen Tian has been researching it, and of course his research will not be as in-depth as he learned.
At least you have to know the approximate content in the film, but Chen Tian didn't know that Walz has studied this related knowledge very deeply these days.
Natalie Portman raised her head, Chen Tian opposite was looking at the book seriously, his brows sometimes frowned and sometimes soothing, and his whole body looked completely in the world of book.
After a smile, she returned to her book again.
The bell at nine o'clock rang, and Chen Tian also temporarily finished reading the part of what he needed to read.
Natalie Portman also raised his head: "I heard you have plans for a new movie, which has something to do with this?"
"Yes, this is an interesting video!"
“It’s low cost again?”
Chen Tian nodded: "Yes, it's another super low-cost movie. Maybe they will give me the name of a miracle."
The entire film of "This Man from Earth" actually took no more than a week to shoot. Chen Tian saw a report saying that the original film seemed to have been completed from evening to the next morning.
Such a filming speed is enough to make people crazy, but this is based on an extremely thorough study of the script.
Looking at Natalie Portman in front of him, Chen Tian had an idea that could make the video sell better.
In his impression, Natalie Portman has made many films, but they are just supporting roles. In "This Man from Earth", there are three female characters, one female student, and one of the two female colleagues is the heroine.
Two female colleagues, one is old and the other is about 30 years old. Natalie Portman is now 22 years old and one year younger than him.
"Maybe she can be invited to play the leading actress Sandy."
Although there is a age gap, all this can be done with makeup techniques.
If Natalie Portman can be invited to star in this film, then this will undoubtedly be a huge publicity advantage for the film.
Of course, there is another very important thing that Natalie Portman's acting skills and high IQ are what Chen Tian needs. For "This Man from Earth", high IQ is essential.
Moreover, although Natalie Portman is worth a lot of money, she often makes guest appearances with friends. Although she is the heroine in this film, she does not have many scenes.
Looking at Chen Tian who was suddenly thinking, Natalie Portman became a little curious.
"Natalie, I want to invite you to star in my new movie, this low-cost movie!"
When Chen Tian suddenly came in, Natalie Portman was stunned for a moment, but he quickly laughed.
"It's a bit surprising, but you have to tell me the script first. If it's great enough, I don't think I'm going to say no, but can you tell me what kind of video it is?"
Due to Chen Tian’s outstanding performance in the first two low-cost films, Natalie Portman was also looking forward to it from the bottom of his heart.
"Science fiction film! A video that explores the meaning of immortality, people and environment, religion and history, and people! A video that can break down the beliefs of normal people!"
Natalie Portman couldn't help frowning when she listened to Chen Tian's words. She even suspected that something went wrong in her ear.
"Such a complicated video? And it's not easy to do it!" Natalie Portman said something right. It's difficult to include so many things in a video.
Chen Tian smiled and shrugged, and took out the script of "This Man from Earth" from his bag: "We can prove that one thousand sheep, ten thousand sheep, and one million sheep are white, but we cannot prove that all sheep are white.
In other words, it can be falsified but cannot be proven.
It sounds like a mental illness, but that's the charm of this film.
This is the script!”
Looking at Natalie Portman who showed disbelief, Chen Tian pushed the script over.
Natalie Portman took over the script, and she didn't believe it as Chen Tian saw.
Chapter completed!
