I am a literary giant in Europe

Chapter 350 Cage
Leonardo DiCaprio wanted "50 First Dates," and of course, Lau Chun wouldn't refuse.

Like Matt Damon, he is also venturing into the fields of producer and executive producer.

However, he is different from Matt Damon. Matt Damon has independent creative abilities and a strong creative team, thanks to the reality show "Green Light Project" which he independently planned and produced in 2001.

The Green Light Project is a show co-produced by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.

A reward of one million US dollars is offered to encourage young people who love film to write screenplays and to provide them with the necessary resources.

Therefore, Matt has no shortage of projects.

Leonardo DiCaprio is far more famous than Matt Damon, but when it comes to projects...

Good projects in Hollywood are almost entirely controlled by major corporations.

Even if Leonardo DiCaprio is capable, it will be difficult for him to compete with those big companies.

But is it possible to find gold in shit?
He doesn't have that ability.

That's why I thought of signing Eva over.

This way, he could have a closer relationship with Liu Jin.

"Let Rick talk to Mela, but let me tell you, Mela won't be soft-hearted because of our relationship."

Little Li nodded in agreement.

Friends are friends, and business is business.

In this respect, he possesses the qualities of an American merchant.

……

Liu Jin simply stopped writing altogether.

I was having coffee and chatting with Leonardo DiCaprio.

A little while later, Tobey Maguire and Matt Damon also arrived.

The three of them ordered some nuts and fries to accompany their beer, and chatted while drinking, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

Time passed by unnoticed.

The train finally arrived at Vienna Station.

The film crew began to disembark, and a bus was already waiting outside the station.

Tobey Maguire and Sophie Marceau took a taxi directly to the airport without saying goodbye to anyone else.

We already said goodbye on the train.

Liu Jin and the others boarded the bus and headed straight to the hotel.

They attracted a lot of attention.

Fortunately, Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, and Kate Winslet were all wearing makeup, so they weren't recognized.

However, some reporters keenly sensed their origins...

After all, our counterparts in Berlin have also reported on this.

We arrived at the hotel safely, albeit with some close calls.

After entering the guest room, Liu Jin collapsed onto the bed and fell fast asleep.

In a daze, a hot and fragrant body snuggled into my arms.

The scent made Liu Jin not open his eyes. He mumbled a few words, then hugged himself tightly and continued sleeping.

I slept for ten hours.

When I woke up, my arms were empty.

But that lingering fragrance...

Liu Jin smiled and shook his head, got up to wash up, and then left the guest room.

"Where's Eva?"

"I went shopping with Ms. Béa."

"Where are Leon and the others?"

"Mr. DiCaprio and the others have gone out as well."

They're all so disloyal; they didn't even invite him.

My stomach was growling with hunger.

Liu Jin walked straight into the restaurant, ordered a Spanish seafood paella, two grilled sausages, and a creamy mushroom soup.

Then, I enjoyed the complimentary French croissants from the restaurant.

"Amos, Mr. Amos Liu Jin?"

While waiting for their food, a tall, handsome man with a perpetually melancholic expression suddenly sat down opposite Liu Jin.

"Um, Mr. Nicolas Cage?"

The man's lips twitched a few times, a half-smile playing on his lips.

He looks just like the policeman in the movie "Face/Off" whose face was swapped.

"Shh!"

He put his finger to his lips, signaling Liu Jin not to get too excited.

Liu Jin couldn't help but laugh, and extended his hand, saying, "Welcome to Vienna, thank you very much for making a cameo appearance in my movie."

“I didn’t want to come.” Cage shook hands with Liu Jin and said softly, “But Sophia said I should take the initiative.”

"what?"

"She said you're a genius with extraordinary creativity... Okay, I admit that."

I really love your "The Old Man and the Sea" and "The Snows of Mount Everest".

But Caribbean pirates...

In comparison, I prefer "Million Dollar Baby," especially the moment Maggie dies at the end—it was so powerful!

I thought you would choose a Hollywood-style ending.

but……"

Cage talked on and on.

Liu Jin discovered that this guy was actually quite talkative.

However, from his conversation, Liu Jin also sensed the almost irrepressible literary and artistic temperament in his bones.

That's normal; this guy started out with art films.

"I'm not really satisfied with the million-dollar baby."

"why?"

"That was a promise I made to a friend... He's a boxer, Abel, I don't know if you've heard of him, he once fought Holyfield for three rounds. I don't know much about boxing."

Frankie's image was basically borrowed from him.

But you know, there's a big difference between successful and unsuccessful boxers.

Abel… well, he wasn’t exactly down on his luck, so I had a bit of a hard time describing Frankie.”

“It’s already pretty good!”

Cage expressed his admiration for Liu Jin.

"Originally, I wasn't too keen on coming. You know, it's the Oscars..."

I heard you wrote a really cool novel in seven days. I asked around, and the editors at Random House were very impressed with your Wind-Up Bird novel, praising it highly. That's why I decided to come and meet you.

"A clockwork bird?"

"Isn't a cardinal just a bird?"

"Haha, you're not wrong if you put it that way."

As the two were talking, a woman walked over.

"Cage, what are you doing here? You said you were going to the restroom, but you never came back. Were you trying to skip out on the bill?"
Who are you……"

The woman's figure remained consistently slightly plump.

He's alright looking!

It's not bad looking.

She'd be a beauty if you put her on the street.

But if you put it in Hollywood, it would only be considered average.

Her long, reddish-brown waves made her look a bit older.

Her fashion sense is quite average, leaning towards a bohemian style, but her overall vibe is still very comfortable.

It has a very gentle and warm feel.

"Sophia, didn't you want me to meet Mr. Amos?"
Amos, Sofia Coppola.

From how she addressed Cage, Liu Jin had already guessed the woman's identity.

He stood up, extended his hand, and smiled, "Amos, Amos Liu Jin."

"You are Amos?"

Sofia looked surprised.

Then she quickly added, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect that... You're not quite what I imagined."

"Uh?"

“You look more like an American now.”

"Haha, I'm playing an American of Chinese descent."

"No, I mean..."

Liu Jin had already guessed what she was thinking.

Chinese people under stereotypes and prejudices!
That's normal. When he was in Los Angeles, someone even asked him why he didn't have a braid.

If Liu Jin hadn't known the other party meant no harm, he might have attacked them.

This is something America has been consistently instilling for decades, and even after the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, the smear campaign still continues.

"Feel sorry!"

Sofia realized she had said the wrong thing.

Liu Jin responded with a smile.
