Chapter 403 Release
Wang Shu didn't have many choices when he came to Hollywood, and Matt Damon was also quite generous, so the script purchase price, director's salary, and other conditions were all very generous.

So the two of them had a great conversation and reached a cooperation intention.

Matt Damon didn't want to delay any changes, but at the same time he wanted to prepare the movie as soon as possible, so he took the contract and signed it with Wang Shu the next day.

Next, people are assigned to handle the preparatory work before filming begins, such as location, set design, actors, etc.

Matt Damon is a popular star in Hollywood, and his every move is watched by many entertainment media.

Therefore, the news that Matt Damon would serve as producer and shoot the movie spread like wildfire.

However, most people only know that Matt Damon is going to make a movie, but they don’t know what kind of movie it will be.

"Shu, the movie that Matt Damon is about to shoot is your script, right?" Monica called Wang Shu.

She also had ideas about Wang Shu's script, and has taken some action these days. She has been contacting familiar producers, trying to persuade them to work with Wang Shu.

Unexpectedly, Matt Damon acted so quickly. Just when she made some progress, the other party had already settled the matter.

"Yes, it's the biographical script I mentioned before." Wang Shu did not hide it, but answered truthfully, "Matt Damon is interested in this script, but I haven't found a partner to work with."

“It was an instant hit.”

After getting a positive answer from Wang Shu, Monica suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart. She was already quite old and her flowering period would not last for a few years.

Although her age is considered the golden period for actresses to win Oscars in Hollywood, the golden period ends with the withering of flowers.

If you never encounter good opportunities during your golden period, you will never win an Oscar in your lifetime.

Monica has age anxiety, knowing that her youth is at the end of her golden period and time waits for no one.

It was hard to find good opportunities in the past, but now it is a good opportunity to meet Wang Shu, who is talented and has just arrived in Hollywood.

This period is the time when she has the best chance to cooperate with Wang Shu.

If Wang Shu becomes famous in Hollywood, then everything will be hard to say.

She knew clearly that Wang Shu's art films were legendary. He won the Alfred Bauer Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, his first trip to one of the three major European film festivals, and then won the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival and the Best Director Award at the Venice Film Festival.

All these show that Wang Shu is a director with the ability to win a big-name award-winning actress.

She also knew that Matt Damon must be aware of this since he acted so quickly.

Biographical film script, Best Director at the Venice Film Festival, and Best Actress at the Cannes Film Festival.

All this shows that compared to many directors who have been in Hollywood for many years, Wang Shu, even though he has just arrived in Hollywood, is still a director with more ability to win the Academy Awards for Best Actor and Best Actress.

Although Wang Shu is a Chinese director, he may not understand European and American culture.

But the script is the "God of Stocks" script, so that makes sense.

"Well, actually I'm also interested in your play, and I'm also contacting a familiar producer to work with you."

"It's just that I just made some progress, but I've already learned that Matt Damon is preparing a movie."

"I guess it should be the script in your hand."

Monica did not think it was shameful to reveal her thoughts and wanted to hide them, but spoke frankly.

After hearing this, Wang Shu was silent for a moment, then said, "Monica, if you have any ideas, you can contact Matt Damon."

“The roles for this play have not yet been decided.”

Monica had this idea in mind when she said this, and then asked, "Shu, is there a role suitable for me?" Wang Shu pondered for a moment and said, "There are two main female characters in this play, the two wives of the male protagonist."

Monica had read Jordan Belfort's autobiography before and knew that the ages of the two female characters did not match hers, so she sighed, "These two roles do not belong to me."

In the original timeline, the heroine of "The Wolf of Wall Street" was Jordan Belfort's second wife, played by Margot Robbie.

This is a post-90s actress. She was only 23 years old when she starred in "The Wolf of Wall Street".

Margot Robbie also made her mark in Hollywood with this movie.

At the same time, she also played the sexy female character in the original version of "Time Traveler" who rejected the male protagonist at the beginning but then gave him a signal.

However, her most famous work is playing Harley Quinn in "Suicide Squad".

It is undeniable that the movie "Barbie" starring her also achieved extremely high box office.

But this movie is a feminist work of great contemporary significance, and it achieved a box office success by taking advantage of the feminist dividend.

Therefore, when it comes to global fame, it has to be the character of Harley Quinn.

Although the actress who plays Jordan Belfort's first wife was born after 85, she is much younger than Monica.

Plus, The Wolf of Wall Street is mainly about Jordan Belfort's youth, so neither of these two roles is suitable for Monica in any way.

Of course, it’s not that there isn’t a role suitable for Monica, it’s just that the role is too small and meaningless.

Wang Shu was silent for a moment. His initial statement that the role had not yet been decided was just an excuse.

Monica knows Matt Damon, and if she really gets the role based on their personal relationship, he won't say much.

After all, the casting power lies in the hands of Matt Damon and the investors.

Of course, if the script is modified, it is not impossible to create a role suitable for Monica.

But for Wang Shu, there was no need to do this.

Seeing that Wang Shu didn't respond, Monica also knew that he had no intention of revising the script, so she sighed and said, "It seems that I have no chance of getting this script."

Wang Shu seemed not to understand Monica's implication and never made any promise.

If it were any other director, he might be eager to make a promise in order to please Monica, the Earth Beauty, and enhance "friendship".

Then, using this as an excuse, they flirt with each other as time goes by.

However, Wang Shu is not that kind of director.

Seeing that Wang Shu had no special reaction at all, Monica began to doubt herself and suspected that her charm was no longer there.

Then I thought of my age and felt sad again.

However, this age also has its own charm, mature charm, which is also very attractive to many people.

Monica knew this.

She could only blame Wang Shu for being like this because Wang Shu, like Leo, liked young girls and didn't like mature women like her.

Monica sighed helplessly, continued chatting with Wang Shu for a while, and then hung up the phone.

As the days go by, with the promotion of the American version of "The Piano Tuner" coming to an end, it is time for it to be released in theaters.
