"He has signed the confidentiality clause with the lawyer, and he is waiting in the director's office."

Under the subtle influence of the professional skirt, Sofia Coppola was a little quick, holding a file box, and after leaving the audition conference room, he began to report the situation in a low voice. Obviously, there was no need to avoid Charles Rowan in these tasks. Everything in the crew did not have any confidentiality factor for the second producer.

"There is another situation..."

When he said this, Sofia Coppola hesitated for a moment and paused his voice, as if he was thinking about how to organize language and speak it more appropriately. He inadvertently glanced at Charles Rowan.

“What’s the situation?”

Curiously tilted his head and glanced at the woman with hesitation, Wayne slowed down his walking speed. "I just said that as long as it is related to work, don't worry about Charles."

You should know that all his private affairs are operated by Nina, including asset management and financial audit of his Greenberg studio, and even life issues such as what clothes to wear when going out are prepared by the assistant lady. Sofia Coppola's main job is the director's assistant, and only assists him in the group drama, so it is basically not involved in sensitive private issues.

"The fat man Harvey Weinstein is still waiting in the dressing room. He has been waiting for more than 3 hours now." The woman lowered her head and whispered: "Do you want to see him first?"

No matter what, Harvey Weinstein is not a small character, and wherever he is put, it should be something that cannot be ignored. Sofia Coppola just wants to remind him to avoid completely avoidable misunderstandings. Who doesn’t know the fat man’s domineering personality in this circle?

"He is willing to wait, just wait."

He waved his hand without looking back. There was no special performance on Wayne's face, and he did not pause. He walked towards his office in a quiet voice.

Charles Rowan, who was slightly behind, looked at Sofia Coppola, shrugged and followed. No one was stupid. Warner Bros. tossed Miramax and Harvey Weinstein. Everyone in the circle knew why. Obviously, the crux of the matter lies with the young man in front.

As soon as the three of them pushed open the office door, Ben Affleck, who had been waiting inside for a while, immediately stood up subconsciously. Nina, who was standing aside, habitually pushed her glasses and nodded to the producer and the new director assistant.

"Sit down, let's talk."

Without waiting for the other party to say hello, Wayne unbuttoned the buttons of his suit top, tilted his head to Charles Rowan, and took out a cigarette. The two sat opposite Ben Affleck together.

"I have a deep impression of you, especially in Batman's audition." With the lighter clicking, Wayne lit a cigarette, skipped all the greetings, and looked at the actor in front of him and said, "The reason I sent you an audition invitation this time is because of the impression I left on me in the audition a few years ago."

Even when sitting, the first impression the actor on the other side gave him was tall and strong. Such a figure had almost reached an acceptable peak in the circle. If he was taller, it would be basically difficult to find an actor who could play with him.

Not slim and tall, Wayne was moved by a few years ago, especially since this guy is young now and looks like a handsome guy among the male actors in the circle. Unlike Tom Cruise's sunshine and handsome appearance, this guy is more handsome.

Maybe this is also the reason why even if he is full of muscles, he deliberately dresses roughly when facing the public and the media when he is older. Here, even the so-called young idol, he is most afraid of being labeled as a sissy.

"Thank you, Director Greenberg."

Rubbing his hands slightly restrainedly, Ben Affleck said politely: "It is my honor to be able to participate in your project."

"Okay, I'll just say it."

Flicking the ashes off the ash on the table, Wayne didn't care about the other party's compliment. He raised his left hand holding the cigarette and waved it. At the same time, he glanced at the silent Charles Rowan beside him and said, "Talk it straight, I don't know if you are interested in Superman Clark Kent. I am very satisfied with your image. Strong, tall, and appropriate acuity are all very consistent with my setting for Superman."

The moment he heard the name Clark Kent, Ben Affreck almost jumped up in surprise. Now he fully understood why the crew asked him to sign a confidentiality agreement, the first superhero of the three giants of justice, and the first superhero to appear in the history of North American comics. In the hearts of all ordinary people, this superhero has an extremely special status.

He was said to be special because of the extreme unrest in North American society at that time, the crime rate remained high, accompanied by the torture of the economic crisis, and there was also potential war threats. Ordinary people needed hope and a powerful force representing the spirit of the Great American.

Against this background, an image of a cloak wearing a blue tights and underwear wearing an outside was born. From the date of its birth, this image has become the most important spiritual symbol in the hearts of generations of young people in North American society, and also a cultural symbol that can fully represent superheroes.

"yes, I mean it's an honor, of course..."

Ben Affleck certainly understood what this character means with the glory of the current DC superhero movie. His excitement made his answer seem stumbling.

But after calming down, he immediately realized that the movie was called "The Flash", which had basically nothing to do with Superman Clark Kent. "Director Greenberg, Mr. Rowan, in the project "The Flash"..."

"You only need to show off a few sides."

Wayne nodded, believing that the other party had guessed his intention. "Just like Barry Allen, the Flash in the last easter egg of "Batman: The Dark Knight", if you join the DC series, you will also appear in the easter egg of this film, as an early trailer for the series after this film."

No matter how many times the script of "The Flash" has been fine-tuned, the easter eggs and prompts of Superman and other characters have been set up long ago. He needs to take into account the story promotion of the entire series, so it is inevitable that each movie will lead to other heroes. In this movie, it is not just Superman Clark Kent himself.

"Of course, I think you've heard some rumors."

After licking his lips, Charles Rowan knew it was time to play. He looked at Ben Affleck, who was full of joy and said, "If you want to join the DC Superhero series, you must sign multiple movie contracts with Warner Bros. You must also leave enough time for this series according to Warner Bros. You should know the specific reasons."

"Of course, of course, I know."

Nodding excitedly, Ben Affleck said excitedly: "I can sign a contract with Warner Bros. at any time and join the Greenberg project. I believe no actor will refuse."

Even if he basically couldn't get decent pay and treatment in the first two films, even if he had to sign an almost harsh unequal treaty, he believed that no actor could reject this temptation, which was a perfect shortcut to quickly become popular.

As for what happens after playing a superhero, it will solidify the so-called screen image and affect other projects in this series. These are not something that actors like them should consider.

"Don't rush to agree."

Seeing that everything went well, Wayne also smiled on his face, shook his head slightly, and said, "The crew will give specific signing conditions in the past two days. What you have to do is go back and find a reliable agent and consider whether you can accept the contract terms."

"no problem."

At this time, Ben Affleck didn't want to consider anything else. He thought that this was the best opportunity he had encountered since entering Hollywood, and he didn't want to let go at all. "I will find a reliable agent as soon as possible and sign a contract with the crew immediately."

"Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation in the next few years."

After the serious matter was said, Wayne did not know anything, took the initiative to stand up, stretched out his right hand, and solemnly shook the tall and strong actor.

"I believe this is certain."

Ben Affleck kept nodding, holding the stretched hand hard, and then politely shook his hand with Charles Rowan, with unconcealed excitement on his face.

"Sophia, please send him away." Turning his head and instructed the director assistant beside him, Wayne was preparing to end this simple meeting. Superman Clark Kent is unparalleled, and there are many things they need to communicate with, but that is all after signing the contract. It is obvious that it is too early to say anything.

"Well......"

Ben Affleck walked to the door and suddenly stopped again. He turned around and looked at Wayne and Charles Rowan awkwardly. He hesitated for a moment and asked: "Although it's a bit early to say this now, can you ask me, my schedule..."

"Charles will talk to you about this after signing the contract."

When the office returned to quiet, Charles Rowan smiled and shook his head, teasing: "This child is obviously dazed by joy. He has a very good image. I just hope that there will be no trouble when signing a contract."

"Then enable alternate candidates!"

Without raising his head, Wayne twisted the cigarette butt into the ashtray and responded without hesitation. Ben Affleck is indeed very pleasing to his image, but this is Hollywood, and no one is indispensable. He has seen through everything in the past two years. If he removes the preconceived halo in his mind, these future big stars will definitely not be irreplaceable.

"Nina, please inform the fat man, and I'll wait for him in the office." When he mentioned this, his mouth slowly raised his eyebrows at the assistant lady's order. Everyone could see the mockery. "I mean, if the fat man hasn't left yet, I really want to see what he wants to impress me..."
