Capítulo 24: 24. I, Zorro
There is nothing new in the storyline.
It is clear that "Zorro" is a commercial costume action film that aims to make money.
The traffic is all supported by the Zorro IP.
If this were a novel, Rowan wouldn't even want to flip through it.
But as for the script...he didn't mind it.
Firstly, Rowan had new ideas, and this standard and neat commercial script was a good object of study.
Secondly, they gave money.
If you have money, you are the sponsor, and providing services is your right thing to do.
When Rowan wanted to drink two cups of tea at a time, the teahouse would satisfy him as long as he paid the right amount.

Rowan couldn't do that, but he still had the right attitude.
And looking at the script storyboard, it is not without highlights.
Justice and evil, conspiracy and love, romance and cruelty...all the wonderful elements are available.
It doesn't have much depth, but it's a relaxing story.
Nor will he act like a life mentor and treat the audience as objects to be educated.
The story is nothing new but flows smoothly, which is good enough for a commercial film.
The Zorro IP is indeed top-notch, and the storyboards alone can illustrate its charm.
In the background is the Gothic bell tower.
Like a bloody setting sun.
Zorro in black riding a black horse.
The sword points to the sky and the horse raises its hooves.
Just a few images can revive the dreams of many girls in their teenage years.
Like vines born from a spell under the moonlight, they slowly entwine around the ancient castle. The princesses are always sleeping, waiting for the prince's rescue. You can imagine how many female fans it can attract.
Based on this, Rowan had an idea in mind.
If Martin Campbell had asked about action design, he would have defined the action design style of Young Zorro as elegant and practical.
Halfway through the discussion, Martin Campbell actually asked Rowan "Mr. Rowan, what do you think about action design?"
Rowna spoke out what he had in mind.
Martin Campbell nodded in agreement and suddenly asked, "I heard that you are a math and Biology genius from USC. Can you imitate a Spanish accent?"
What does math prodigy have to do wi th mimicking an accent?
Rowan was stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously: "My father has some Latin American blood. He has always liked the enthusiasm of Latin America. I am also interested in customs."
In the second half, Rowan switched to a Spanish accent ofcourse it was thanks to Spawn.
He has a very good voice, and when he speaks with a Spanish accent, it sounds lazy, unrestrained, and a little heavy.
Martin Campbell's review was "Not quite standard, but better, like tequila, mellow on the palate, but with a burning aftertaste in t he heart... You've given me a lot of surprises, Mr. Rowan."
"Uh, I don't quite understand what you mean, Director Campbell."
Rowan vaguely guessed something.
Martin Campbell did not answer his qu estion, but turned to look at Steven Spielberg who had been silent.
Steven Spielberg nodded.
Martin Campbell stood up and looked at the people in the conference room with different expressions: "Everyone knows what happened recently."
"I finally recovered from my illness and then an accident happened again."
"After communication, Mr. Banderas expressed his understanding and has chosen to return home to recuperate. I wish Mr. Вanderas a speedy recovery."
"The leading male role is vacant. We have discussed with many actors in the past two days, but none of them are suitable."
"Schedule, compatibility with the role, fencing and horse riding skills... there is always one thing that I am not satisfied with."
"The crew can't drag it on any longer. Time is money. I think we should let Mr. Rowan give it a try."
Martin Campbell's words made everyo ne in the audience doubt whether they had heard it wrong.
Rowan, who had guessed something, was also stunned: "Me, Zorro?"
Someone wanted to say something, but Steven Spielberg said in a deep voice, "I agree with Martin's opinion."
"Mr. Rowan has a great image, his ability is not a problem, and he can speak with a Spanish accent. He is a little younger but fits the character of the new Zorro better."
"Although he has no works to prove himself other than Face/off which is still not in the theatres I think everyone has been paying attention to the recent news. No one should doubt Mr. Rowan's popularity and commercial value."
Steven Spielberg gets ideas when he watches the news.
He is not an impulsive person and has conducted a comprehensive investigation over the past two days.
I learned about his experience in "Face/Off", asked about his performance from the "Face/Off" crew, and also learned about his advertising endorsements.
After analyzing various aspects, we finally determined that it is an extremely cost-effective choice.
The Mask of Zorro has been delayed for far too long.
Even though a group of old friends in t he Jewish circle approached him, Steven Spielberg did not do favors as usual and chose Rowan because Jeffery Ketzenberg has already called him first
Moreover as a big shot in the Jewish community, Steven Spielberg is keen on cultivating people within the circle.
It is also thanks to the circle that the DreamWorks was not hit hard.
In his opinion, this time it was not an exception, because Rowan's father also had some Jewish ancestry, so he could just regard it as attracting new blood otherwise even Jeffery's call wouldn't have been enough... By the way, why is this guy's father's ancestry so mixed?
No one spoke anymore, and everyone knew whose opinion it was to choose Rowan.
The final word!
Seeing the silence, Martin Campbell was about to speak, but Steven Spielberg said first: "It's settled, Rowan, you will play the new Zorro."
'I'll take the blame, and you'll do the favors. You're noble and amazing'...Martin Campbell smiled and nodded.
Just like that, Rowan became the leading actor in a $60 million blockbuster movie.
________________________
At the same night, Mary Acker called and started "You are really Lucky here we were hoping you will get a role of supporting charector but you became the lead actor instead ."
"I am justa backup actor with a salary of $100,000. Though it's still something." Rowan said
"Well if you are not happy with this than you still have two pieces of good news." Mary said
Mary got straight to the point: "First news, I have already found some people for t he driver and assistant you asked me to find. When will the interview be?"
Rowan said "Wait until I get back to Los Angeles. There's no rush to use it for now."
Mary the comento the second topic "The second news is that people in Hollywood have figured out your identity. I have received many scripts and project offers. I have picked out a few good ones."
"Tell me about it." Rowan asked
Mary spoke a little faster and briefly described the project "First, some small projects."
"Mariah Carey invited you to play the male lead in the music video for her new album."
"Why did the Queen of Christmas come to me?"
"Many actors also take music videos. Your traffic is so huge now, and many singers want to take advantage of it. Mariah Carey is the best choice."
"It's a rare opportunity, take it!"
Rowan is not considered a Diva fan. He simply thought it was a good opportunity to get acquainted with the Christmas Queen.
Rowan thought that it was good to have traffic and be able to work with actresses who were previously out of his reach.
"Blade Runner invited you to be the action director, with a salary of 50,000 U S dollars. They have already started filming, but you can't adjust your schedule of the leading male role in Zorro for it. I have already rejected it for you." Mary stated
"'The Games' invites you to be a consultant. The consulting fee is $10,000."
"Director David Fincher designed a puzzle game. He thinks you, a math genius, have great ideas. You can communicate by phone or email. It doesn't take too much time. I suggest you take this job. The salary is a little lower, but it will expand your social circle."
Rowan was very excited about Blade.
This project is very much to his liking as a superhero comic fan.
What a pity, there really is no time.
And he was just an action director, and in the end he could only watch the whole process.
This is like a gay man visiting a straight bar- he has the strength but cannot use it. Better out of sight, out of mind.
Rowan said, "Then take "The Game"."
Mary continued "Also the the Team behind Face/off asked you to leave dates for the promotion of the movie."
"Don't worry I have some ideas about how to promote that movie." Rowan stated
"That's good, Next are some script audition invitations."
