729. Charity Dinner(1/2)
After chatting for a while, the elevator came. Seeing Harris and the others behind him, Brett immediately pressed the elevator door frantically, leaving a few people outside cursing.
On the 80th floor of the hotel, in addition to the spacious banquet hall, it is also equipped with luxurious facilities such as sky gardens, swimming pools, and observation decks.
Climbing high and looking into the distance, you can have an unobstructed view of the prosperity of Hollywood.
And they are all a group of people standing at the top.
The banquet has not officially started yet, and the huge venue is full of laughter.
Li Zixuan and a group of people came up and immediately became the center of attention.
Anyone who spends 170 million casually is the real boss!
Not to mention Brett, the younger generation of the Taylor family still controls the film and television resources of Poseidon. He is at the top of the food chain, and the stars who make a living have to look at his face.
He was different from Li Zixuan. He had friends all over the world. As soon as he came up, people greeted him one after another and went off to socialize.
Li Zixuan was just about to find a place to sit down when he saw Catherine waving to him in the distance.
"Jak, let me introduce you to some friends. This is Keira Jones, this is Naomi Adams..."
Catherine introduced Li Zixuan one by one. There were both men and women. Those who could stand with her were basically from the same circle. Everyone was a shining presence.
Jessica also said hello, some of whom she knew, and some of whom she looked up to.
As the latest shining star in Hollywood, it is not easy to enter such a top-notch circle. This time, I followed Li Zixuan and got some glory.
Everyone also looked closely at the two of them, especially Li Zixuan, who rarely participated in various social activities and basically only saw him on the screen.
When I see him in person, I can’t help but sigh that his appearance and temperament are unparalleled!
No wonder so many people are crazy about him, and the blockade by capital is meaningless.
But this is none of their business. It doesn't hurt to get to know people like Jak Li. Maybe there will be a possibility of cooperation one day.
Sabicai and those capital and extreme people sided with each other.
Besides, there are people here who have a good impression of Li Zixuan, and with Catherine's introduction, everyone started to communicate enthusiastically.
"Jak, nice to meet you! I heard that "Harry Potter" is about to start filming? Can you tell us about it?"
"When will the casting start? Aren't you filming "Alien" now?"
Li Zixuan greeted politely. He was always friendly to friendly people.
"Jak, this is George Roberts, from the Kingdom of John. He wants to participate in "Harry Potter". In the Kingdom of John, maybe he can be of help. You can chat."
Catherine introduced one of them and said.
Although the main cast of "Harry Potter" are all children, there are also many other very charming characters.
"Jak, hello! Your writing of "Harry Potter" is so wonderful. Thank you for using England as the background of "Harry Potter"."
George Roberts shook hands with Li Zixuan warmly, with sincerity and excitement in his eyes.
He has typical British features, with deep outlines, a high bridge of nose, and a polite manner of speech.
"So Mr. Roberts also likes to watch "Harry Potter"? That's really my honor."
Li Zixuan also smiled and said that he knew this person. He was also an international superstar and had many classic works.
"I think it's not just me, many people here like your "Harry Potter"."
George Roberts has a very low-key attitude, just like a book lover.
"I wonder what role Mr. Roberts would like to play?"
Li Zixuan asked directly.
"I want to try the role of Hagrid. Of course, I can audition normally. If you are not satisfied, Mr. Li, you can tell me directly."
If he were just an ordinary character, of course he wouldn't have to greet Li Zixuan in advance. Since he wanted to join the "Harry Potter" system, he had some ideas in mind.
Besides, given his status, he is qualified to make demands.
If he wasn't afraid of being too competitive and missing out on "Harry Potter," he wouldn't have said hello in advance.
There are actually not many characters to choose from in "Harry Potter", and Dumbledore is not the right age.
The only male character left with the highest appearance rate is Hagrid, and his character is very lovable and he interacts a lot with the protagonists.
At present, there are only three "Harry Potter" films out, and it is difficult to predict the subsequent plot. Many things cannot be seen, and he also has an element of gambling.
But such a successfully created character will certainly not be easily written off.
Not only would that be a waste of the author's efforts, but thousands of readers would not agree.
I just don’t know, how many volumes will be written in the "Harry Potter" series? Or will it be a series in my lifetime?
"No, the role of Hagrid is not suitable for you. You are too handsome."
Li Zixuan waved his hand and refused.
Hearing his unhesitating rejection, George Roberts' heart dropped. When he heard the second half of the sentence, his sadness suddenly turned into joy.
Others also laughed. Jak Li is really interesting! He is not as heinous as the rumors outside.
"Actually, I think there is a role that suits you very well. I think you can audition for the role of Professor Snape."
Li Zixuan directly extended the invitation.
Of course he would be happy to have a star of George Roberts's caliber participating.
Besides, as Catherine said, such an energetic person can also help him in John's country.
Moreover, it was Catherine who introduced him, so there was no need for him to be pretentious. Why not sell a favor?
"Professor Snape? But... he is a villain, and the story is set in our country. I am worried that it will have a bad impact on "Harry Potter"."
George Roberts frowned and said.
As a villain, it usually doesn't matter, but now it doesn't.
As an international superstar, he is also the face of John Country. As a result, in a novel that is popular all over the world, his "hometown" is still in his own country, but he plays a villain in it. Many people must not accept it and even launch a boycott.
He must consider such factors, otherwise it would be bad if he gets burned.
In fact, it's not like he hasn't considered Snape's role. After all, Hagrid's role is a bit far-fetched from his image.
Even for him who is really thinking about joining "Harry Potter", the list of roles he is considering includes the villain Voldemort, both of whom are important characters in the book.
However, this character is too mysterious. He has always lived in legends and has not shown his face a few times. It can only be used as a last resort when there is no choice.
Now Jak Lee suggested that he play Snape, and while he was secretly happy, he was also a little worried.
This shows that Jak Li deliberately dragged him into "Harry Potter", and he was heartbroken.
"Who said Snape is a villain? He is one of the most important characters in the book and will be throughout."
Li Zixuan said that if you want to play this role well, it is necessary to spoil it in advance.
No matter who plays the role in the end, he will provide the story line and role positioning, otherwise many details will not be performed at all.
"Snape is not a villain?"
"Is there an inside story? Jak, please tell us!"
At this time, everyone became interested, and even Jessica looked at Li Zixuan with a look of curiosity.
"This will be kept secret for the time being. In short, Snape is not a villain. Everything he does has a reason."
Li Zixuan would not be stupid enough to say these things on the spot.
There are everyone here, but who knows if they are as friendly as they appear on the surface? Maybe there are a few traitors among these people and they are spreading the word to the outside world.
"If you have ideas for this role, we can discuss it privately during the audition."
Li Zixuan said to George Roberts again.
This time, everyone's eyes turned to him again.
"What are you looking at? I am a very professional person and will definitely keep secrets, so don't even think about it!"
George Roberts was in a good mood and said half-jokingly.
Since Jak Li has given such a guarantee, he has no reason not to give it a try.
"Jak, what do you think of me? I also want to play a guest role, just...Deputy Dean Mag."
Catherine also suddenly recommended herself and looked at Li Zixuan with a sweet smile.
She is also a loyal reader of "Harry Potter", and she bought all the manuscripts Li Zixuan took out.
Li Zixuan was speechless. Vice-President Mag's original image was that of an old woman, which had no resemblance to Catherine, the queen, right?
"Okay! It's settled!"
However, the image can be changed, and of course he would like it if Catherine could make a cameo.
Deputy Headmistress McGonagall appears throughout, but her role is not too large. It will surely become a beautiful scenery of Hogwarts College, and the audience in this world will be blessed.
For the sake of the public, he had to agree.
Soon the dinner started, and Li Zixuan and Jessica were also arranged to sit with Catherine and the others.
