From Xiangjiang Martial Arts in the 70s

Chapter 52 Sylvester Stallone
Early 1974 was another tough year for Sylvester Stallone, who hadn't gotten any roles after auditioning for "The Godfather" the year before.

Since being dropped out of the University of Miami by accident, his luck has not been very good. Fortunately, he has a good figure and landed some sleazy porn roles.

Stallone was concentrating on writing a new script when his phone rang with an unfamiliar voice with a thick accent.

"Hi Mr. Sylvester Stallone, I'm going to invite you to my new play, are you free?"

"Okay, I'm free, what should I call you?"

Stallone quickly put down the pen in his hand, sat up straight and asked.

"Drizzt Wu, you can call me Mr. Wu."

The name Stallone is somewhat familiar. He often pays attention to the latest popular movies, but most of the genres are European and American styles.

"I want to invite you to participate in the shooting of a horror movie. There may be many cruel plots in the movie. I will mail the script to your home."

"What? My house?"

Stallone is a little puzzled. Few outsiders will know his home address.

Wu Changyun also obtained Stallone's personal information through the crew of the filming before, and sent someone to send him a letter by the way.

"If you are interested after reading the script, call me at this number, and I will give you at least 3 US dollars as a reward. I hope you will consider it."

"Ok."

In just a few words, Stallone's mentality is like riding a roller coaster. All his current sources of funding are odd jobs, writing scripts, and taking on some less important roles. This is undoubtedly a good thing.

Listening to the other party's accent, Stallone once suspected that the other party was a liar, until the other party said the reward of 3 US dollars. Even at the risk of being cheated, this is definitely a number that cannot be ignored. He has received the most rewards before Not more than $3.

Stallone decided to get to know each other first after receiving the script, preferably in person.

While waiting for a reply, Wu Changyun first called Ann Margaret. Last year, she had just filmed "The Love Hunters" with The Shining actor Jack Nicholson, which was also a large-scale film. movie of.

Wu Changyun discovered a normality, it seems that the hot actresses all took over some larger roles when they first debuted.

The person who answered Wu Changyun's call was Ann-Margret's agent. Among all the actors Wu Changyun invited at this stage, Ann-Margret was somewhat famous.

After the other party learned Wu Changyun's name, they only asked some questions about the shooting location and production company.

After Wu Changyun expressed his attitude, Ann Margaret's agent said that he would pass on his invitation and asked Wu Changyun to wait for a reply.

Afterwards, Wu Changyun tried to contact Jane Fonda. Compared with the enthusiasm and beauty in Ann Margaret's eyebrows, Jane Fonda looked wild and sweeter, which was more in line with Wu Changyun's aesthetics.

I also contacted the agent, and the answer I got was similar to that of the previous agent.

"Is my fame still too small?" Wu Changyun couldn't help muttering. Although his films were shown well at the overseas box office, they still couldn't win against American stars by Hollywood standards and lacked recognition.

In desperation, Wu Changyun chose Annette Haiwen as a candidate.

But what surprised Wu Changyun was that Marlon Brando, who was on vacation in Canada, made a cameo appearance in Wu Changyun's new drama, and he even watched "The Sixth Sense of Spirituality" and gave a good evaluation.

On the day agreed with Mr. Wu, Stallone was dressed casually and was making breakfast in the rental house.

He deliberately tidied up the only table in the house and removed the magazines and newspapers that had piled up on it. Maybe the other party would come, but there was a high probability that he would not come.

Stallone has checked Wu Changyun's information. This magical Mr. Wu has contracted work from actor, director to screenwriter for two films. The response of the film in the United States is mediocre, but it seems that he can be regarded as a famous figure in Mr. Wu's hometown.

"Perhaps a swindler, or perhaps a gray-haired businessman."

Stallone imagined the image of Mr. Wu in his mind, and heard that the foreign film market is chaotic, and even illegal businessmen are involved.

Stallone had just stuffed the bread into his mouth and was about to drink a glass of milk when his doorbell rang and he was greeted by the apartment housekeeper.

"Someone is looking for you, they are waiting outside."

"Ok."

"I hope you hurry up and don't waste that gentleman's time." The old butler smiled knowingly.

Wu Changyun stood outside his apartment. Parked behind him was a 65 Cadillac. Like Wu Changyun's previous car, it had a V-shaped front and the body looked angular and wild.

If Fushun was by his side, he would have complained that the rent of this car was too extravagant, so Wu Changyun invited Yuan Aijia to fly to the United States.

"Is this guy really that good? Worth your trip?"

Yuan Aijia wore a white sun hat, revealing the curves of her shoulders. She wore a pair of sunglasses and her whole face looked small and delicate. She was wearing bright red lipstick, which made her look more mature with sexy colors.

When Stallone's figure appeared on the stairs, Yuan Aijia couldn't help but wondered: "You like his figure, right? Your aesthetics should be similar."

"Hello, Mr. Sylvester Stallone."

Wu Changyun covered the sun and greeted him.

In front of Stallone is a combination of handsome men and beautiful women, and the Cadillac car behind them. As far as Wu Changyun's image is concerned, he does not have the sharp chin and beard like European and American stars, but he perfectly interprets what is called handsome, and his deep eyes have a hint of oriental sense of mystery.

"Hello, are you Mr. Wu?"

"Yes, I am, get in the car. If possible, I hope to meet in Canada or Hong Kong next time."

Wu Changyun observed Stallone's expression through the rearview mirror, although the other party has been in a daze since they met.

The three came to a coffee shop, and Stallone took out the script that had been mailed to him before, and then asked, "What role will I play in it?"

Wu Changyun spread his hands, not minding the other party's rudeness, pointing to the character in the play and said: "You need to play the candid cameraman who plays opposite the doctor."

"I will play the role of a doctor in the play." Wu Changyun added.

Stallone read the script back and forth again. In this play, he has a lot of roles and can be regarded as a very important role. The only shortcoming is that the career of the role is not very positive.

"By the way, we invited Marlon Brando to play Jigsaw in the play. Although he won't appear many times, I believe you should know him well." Wu Changyun said with a smile.

"Marlon Brando?"

How could Stallone not know, he has never taken it seriously before, this time overall, this may be a very rare opportunity for him.

"I want to see the contract first," Stallone said, putting down the script.

"No problem, you will see what you want to see tomorrow."

　After looking at it, the one-month word count task of investment should be completed. I asked the editor this week, and there may be recommendations, or there may not be.I feel like I’m about to run naked on the shelves (laughing and crying), thank you 6644356, Buono, Xuehai Wuya, Gu Xuhuai and other audience masters for their support. With your support, the creation will be more motivated.
