From the beginning of Natalie Portman's conversation with Matthew Horner, Coriner followed, and then followed the two of them and came here quietly. As a result, he saw Matthew Horner and Wachowski's brothers having a hot fight. Wachowski's brothers are directors, screenwriters and producers. Why can you find an actor?

So, he seemed to be drinking water casually and resting, but in fact he pricked up his ears and listened carefully to every word he said there.

Do the Wachowski brothers want to invite Matthew Horner to their new movie? Will Matthew Horner agree? What is this project?

This is not only Corina's business needs, but also inner curiosity.

But the people at the next table were discussing "V-word Vendetta Team" and talking about some mysterious topics.

Lana Wachowski was very happy. Although the movie was adapted from a comic, he and Andy added a lot of their own views during the adaptation process.

"I think the best position of this film is that it speaks the voice of many people." She talked freely, "the people should not be afraid of their government, the government should be afraid of their people."

Matthew didn't respond. He had just said a few words. When it comes to discussions on political and philosophical thinking, he could not catch up with the Wachowski brothers when driving a Mercedes-Benz. If he continued, he would definitely show his timidity.

In fact, the movies he has starred in rarely involve politics directly. Even if he is given a corresponding pay, he will never accept sensitive films like "V-word Vendetta".

Hollywood movies, or movies around the world, cannot completely get rid of political influence, but past experiences tell him that it is better to participate less in matters that are deeply involved in politics, especially the sequel to "Fast and Furious" that he and David Ellison are preparing to invest in, which will definitely blur the political background and enter more markets.

Opposite, Lana Wachowski was still talking, and Matthew was basically thinking about his own affairs except nodding and echoing.

According to Wachowski, in front of the White House, the American people are just P. So what is the White House to P.P.

He didn't know much about American politics, and suddenly he thought of a passage he read from the Internet on the other side of the Balance Ocean: The government is the boyfriend of P-citizens.

First of all, why don’t you care about me? Secondly, do you care about me?! Again, give me an explanation! Also, don’t explain, I don’t listen to me, I don’t listen to you, are all lies! Finally, look at other people’s boyfriend!

Just as Matthew finished his random thoughts and was thinking about finding an excuse to say goodbye, the Wachowski brothers finally ended the level of chat that he could not reach at all.

"Matthew, we asked Nat to find you, there is a project that I want to ask you to participate." Andy Wachowski spoke more directly than Lana Wachowski. "I'm planning a science fiction movie."

He looked at Natalie Portman, and Natalie Portman took the initiative to say, "In 2005, when I was still filming "V-word Vendetto", I occasionally saw David Mitchell's novel "Cloud Map", and then recommended it to Lana. Lana and Andy became very interested in this story."

Matthew nodded, but did not interrupt.

Lana Wachowski then said, "Andy and I successfully obtained the copyright of the novel from David Mitchell and completed the script adaptation." He looked at Natalie Portman, "Nat will play the heroine, and she recommends you to be the hero."

Speaking of this, Andy Wachowski opened the briefcase that was placed aside, took out the script and pushed it in front of Matthew.

Matthew looked at the script and the Wachowski brothers were obviously prepared.

"You can read the script first." Lana Wachowski made a gesture of asking for help. "This is just the first draft. Andy and I will discuss and modify it later, but the main framework will not change."

All of these words fell into Corina's ears, and seeing Matthew pick up the script, he turned his body slightly so that his eyes could be seen there.

Opening the script, Matthew took a quick look.

"This project is still in the confidential stage and the script cannot be leaked, so Lana and I specially brought it over to let you see it on the spot." Andy Wachowski knew very well that it would be difficult for this project to be successfully launched. The script had already reached Warner Bros., but the Warner Bros. Review Committee was very doubtful about the high investment and obscure plot.

In addition, the two sequels of "The Matrix" did not meet Warner Bros. Especially in the last one, Warner Bros. no longer obeyed the two of them as they did a few years ago.

Therefore, the siblings followed Natalie Portman's advice and came here specifically to contact Matthew Horner, a popular figure in the eyes of Warner Brothers.

The story of "Cloud Map" is really too much for their appetite and it is impossible to give up.

Matthew quickly browses the script, and there are more and more producers or directors who come to the door like this in the past two years. Looking back on the past, it takes time to compete for a role. Now, even if you sit still, there are still many characters who come to the door.

In Helen Hermann's words, a superstar or a popular first-tier movie star will not lack movies and roles. Just like when Steve Jobs was successful, everyone said that he was a super genius and his every move attracted much attention from investors. When Steve Jobs was kicked off the Apple board, those people were still the ones who thought that Jobs had no talent. Even if he wanted to raise Pixar, he could not find funds, and had to sign a contract similar to a sales contract with Disney.

Those who pursue successful people but are too lazy to look at the losers. This is the business circle.

No one thinks that their project fails and always accumulates the factors of success as much as possible, as is the same with the Wachowski brothers.

Lana Wachowski said, "This novel has a spectacular description of time and space and human nature. In the book, Mitchell tells six relatively independent but related stories, with time and space spanning from medieval Europe to fantasy utopia. The characters also cross from knights, underworlds, musicians to journalists, and the subject matter is very suitable for filming into movies."

Similar to most Hollywood scripts, Matthew's scripts are very thin, but time is limited, so he just browsed them roughly.

But this script is different from a typical simple and easy-to-understand Hollywood script. I don’t know if it’s because of his 10-point relationship or his limited cultural cultivation. I was confused after reading it.

"The script consists of six stories interspersed."

Perhaps seeing the doubts on Matthew's face, Lana Wachowski despised Matthew in his heart and explained, "Every actor's character has different identities in the story, even different races and genders."

He said with a little pride, "The script and the films we shoot will reflect the rare depth of Hollywood commercial films, which can only be seen by real smart people."

Hearing the latter words, Matthew closed the script and basically sentenced the book to death.

On the one hand, through the conversation just now, it was not difficult for him to find that whether it was Natalie Portman or Wachowski's brothers, he was definitely not the same as him in terms of movies; on the other hand, he did not understand the script, but generally felt that his imagination was very broad. In addition, Lana Wachowski's words, it would be unreasonable to understand the so-called profound commercial movies. If they don't miss the script, they would be unreasonable.

However, Matthew asked, "Lana, Andy, are you directors?"

"Yes." Andy Wachowski nodded, "We will definitely direct this film."

Matthew no longer had any hope. The gossip report I remembered before clearly stated that since the Wachowski brothers and sisters, all other movies were box office failures.

"Lana, Andy, and...Nate." Matthew was still very polite and enthusiastic in public. "Can I let me go back and think about it carefully? I can't make a decision if the agent is not here."

"Of course." Lana Wachowski took out his business card and handed it to Matthew. "This is my phone call with Andy, I hope I can hear good news from you."

Matthew then put it away solemnly, "I also hope to work with both of you." He looked at Natalie Portman, "and Nat."

Interested? When Corina heard these words, she saw Matthew's enthusiastic smile and felt that he seemed to be very interested.

David Mitchell's novel "Cloud Map"? Look back and take a look.

He immediately saw Matthew Horner stand up and say goodbye to leave. Natalie Portman said a few more words to him, but the two of them were very low and could not hear what they were saying.

Just as he stood up and was about to leave, Andy Wachowski's voice came over again.

"If Matthew Hornerken was the leading actor, it would be much easier for us to get the investment from Warner Bros."

Lana Wachowski said disdainfully, "It's not just to attract investment, I'll come to him on my own initiative? I can't even understand the script, and the level is too low!" She sighed, "This project costs at least $100 million. If you don't get the full support of Warner Bros., we can only suppress it and shoot the boring animation adaptation film that Warner Bros. pressed us."

From these words, Coriner immediately analyzed some information. The Wachowski's brothers' projects lack funding. They did not really like Matthew Horner. The reason they came to him was entirely because Matthew Horner is now a celebrity in the eyes of Warner Brothers.

Hearing that there was a change of topic and talking about some boring things, he simply left here and went to find Brad Pitt.

"Matthew!" Helen Hermann flashed out from behind the crowd and waved at Matthew, "Here."

"Why are you here?" Matthew strode over.

Helen Hermann did not answer, pointing in the direction he came over, "Did you see the middle-aged man with a little bald head? I have been observing him for a while, and he has been eavesdropping on your conversation with Wachowski."

Matthew followed Helen Herman's finger and happened to see the man stand up and leave the table where Wachowski's brothers were.

Helen Hermann lowered his voice, "If I admit it right, he is the manager of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie."

"They?" Matthew frowned.
