733 Sacrifice

Charlize returned the menu to the waiter and looked at Lance deeply, "So, what do I need to show you? I'm ready!" Without greetings or politeness, he went straight to the point.

Lance did not answer immediately, but leaned back slightly and looked at Charlize seriously in a condescending posture. Charlize not only did not retreat, but also straightened his chest and looked at him upright. He did not please and flatter, nor showed his charm. He just looked at Lance confidently, and the strength between his eyebrows and eyes was no less than that of Lance.

She is Ferosa, the natural Ferosa. Charlize's heroic spirit without any pretentiousness, with a hint of stubbornness in his sharpness, which easily outlines Ferosa's characteristics; the vicissitudes of time precipitation and polishing between his eyebrows perfectly interprets the essence of the wasteland world. Through his beautiful/glorious and exquisite face, Lance had already seen the real Ferosa in his mind.

Almost at first glance, Lance had already made a decision in his heart that the role of Ferrosa must be Charlize.

"You have already won this role." Lance broke the silence, which made Charlize puzzled, with a glimmer of doubt in his eyes. Lance smiled slightly, "In my mind, you are the best candidate for the heroine. Apart from you, I can't think of any other actress who can play this role-or, or in other words, she can interpret the effect I want."

Charlize pursed his lips and gently lit his chin, "So, you mean, you want me to play the leading actress and partner with Max?"

Lance asked with great enthusiasm, “Have you seen the ‘Crazy Max’ series?”

"Of course, George Miller is a genius." Charlize's answer was not hesitant. "In Hollywood, besides you, I'm not sure which director can create the world George Miller wants. Especially after seeing your creative ideas..."

"Storyboard." Lance explained.

Charlize was stunned for a moment, and the surprise in his eyes burst out with light, "Storyboard! I'm even more sure you will create a world that is even more crazy than the 'Crazy Max' series."

"I hope you and Max will be partners. This is a strong but sensitive, strong but delicate, bold but fragile character. She is trying to find her own freedom in the wasteland world of the end of the world." Lance outlined the essence of the character Ferrosa in just a few words. The excitement in Charlize's eyes could hardly be concealed. She suddenly clenched her fist and knocked the table. She was so unreasonable that she was also shocked by playing cards. Then she saw Charlize showing a bright smile.

"Please forgive my mistreatment." Charlize's expression was not too apologized, "but I must admit that I am very excited now. I know you are an excellent director. You can always give the character more depth and tap into the actor's potential. Jesus Christ, I can't wait to devote myself to the role's preliminary preparations." Excited, but not losing my mind. The focus and fanaticism in my eyes make people clearly feel her attitude towards movies and performances.

Lance has worked with many actors so far, but this is the first time he has seen such a spirit in the eyes of an actor. Perhaps Emma Stone can barely get involved, but she is still too immature, and her passion at this time comes more from dreams. However, Charlize has been struggling in Hollywood for more than ten years, standing on the Oscar podium, experiencing peaks and troughs, but still having this attitude is rare.

"Wait, wait." Lance waved his hand and shouted to stop in time. "I'm now thinking about whether we should sign the contract first, and then I'll tell you how difficult this work is. I can preview that after Leonardo heard the content of the work, he gave up."

Charlize chuckled and shrugged, "Luckily, I'm not Leonardo."

Lance couldn't help but smile, but then dropped the bombshell, "I need you to sign the statement of guolu's abstention." This made Charlize's pupils shrink slightly.

The so-called "Sin City" statement of abstention, Lance had contacted once during the filming of "Sin City". He tried to let Jessica sign the statement, but Jessica refused. In the end, both sides compromised and made Nancy wear a sexual/sensual outfit, but gave up a lot of direct shots of "Sin City".

This statement is not just an actor's pre-statement statement about his voluntary performance in Guolu and bed/play, but also contains a description of the degree of Guolu or the degree of physical contact. If the actor repents after signing the statement, they are allowed to withdraw their statements, and even without the consent of the actor, the stand-in cannot be used casually. Simply put, Hollywood's protection of actors in Guolu is mainly actors.

Generally speaking, actors will decide whether to sign the statement after reading the script and communicating with the director. But now, without seeing the script or even signing a cooperation agreement, Lance made such an excessive request, which really surprised Charlize. If Charlize agreed now, does it mean that Lance could deliberately add more scenes of the fruit?

Charlize was a little surprised because in Lance's five works so far, the use of the scenes of Gordy is very cautious. Even in "City of Sin", there is only one of Muffle and Gotty. You should know that most of Lance's current works are related to crime and women. It can be seen that Lance is not a director who likes to use Gordy's scenes to create topics. But now, Lance has suddenly changed his sex?

With a flash of eyes, Charlize didn't hesitate much and nodded directly and said, "Okay."

Charlize agreed too readily, but Lance was a little surprised. Charlize seemed to notice Lance's emotions and said with a smile, "This is Hollywood. This is not the first time I have signed such a statement, and it probably won't be the last time." The teasing was filled with a hint of sarcasm and a hint of freedom, which made Lance chuckled.

Lance nodded with satisfaction. In fact, in "Crazy Max 4", Charlize did not need any show-off roles, and there was no love line between Ferosa and Max, let alone in intimacy. The reason why he said this was just to test Charlize's bottom line, and now the result made him very satisfied.

However, Lance had no intention of explaining, and then said, "In this work, I need you to make some sacrifices. First, you have to shave your hair and shave it until... uh, a slab? It's better to be bald, and then wait for a while to grow a little bit, that state." Because this is the doomsday world of wasteland, and the water resources are extremely scarce, Ferosa is unwilling to be the wife and concubine of Immortal Old Joe, and decided to use her own hands to break out a world, so she naturally has no time to take care of her hair, so she shaves all of it. This will distinguish Ferosa from other female characters. "In addition, we will shoot in the desert, for at least four months, and it may be half a year if it is long. I need all the actors and the entire crew to show their true life in the desert, so there is no special treatment for actors."

Charlize looked at Lance without any reaction, but just listened quietly. Lance continued, "Also, the character's left hand was cut off, and it was completely manipulator. Although it will be made with computer special effects later, I need you to show this feeling of losing balance. Finally, the martial arts you learned in the "Magic Woman Warrior" may be useful."

Finally, after a passage, Charlize shrugged, "I thought after the 'devil', I didn't need to experience the six hours of makeup preparation time again, but... if the director was you, I would be willing to compromise again." Charlize raised his hands, as if he was helpless, "This is my choice and my dream. No matter how difficult it is, I will continue."

In the joke, it was obvious that Charlize was indifferent. The work "The Devil" made Charlize successfully win the Oscar for Best Actress, and she completely destroyed her peerless appearance, making people forget her appearance and really shocked by her performance. Therefore, Charlize's subtext is that "Mad Max 4" is not worse than "The Devil".

Lance's eyes showed a sincere smile, "However, I can make some compensation for the pay. Do you have any special requirements?" Although Charlize was an Oscar winner, because she has not achieved outstanding achievements in commercial films, her current pay is basically around 8 million, and Chaos Pictures is affordable.

Objectively speaking, this is not expensive. Because of the same level, the male actor's pay can be about 12 million, but there are many fewer actresses. This is the common situation in Hollywood or the whole world, and men and women are paid differently. Since Lance himself will play "Mad Max 4", the male protagonist's pay is not required. If necessary, Lance is willing to give Charlize a pay.

But Charlize blinked gently, leaned slowly towards the back of the chair, then raised his right leg, elegant and charming, and his powerful queen aura was eye-catching, and his flaming red lips were slightly opened, "What if I say, I don't want a pay, but I hope to join this work in the form of box office dividends?"
