magic!What I need is magical children, they have the kind of magic that makes people understand at a glance, and that is them!But among these hundreds of children, I can't feel the magic at all!

In the office rented by the Harry Potter crew, director Chris Columbus said to Adrian with some excitement.

Adrian shrugged, then looked at J.K. Rowling next to him, who shrugged with a smile. Obviously, Columbus has said this more than once, and Rowling is very satisfied with his role as director.

She had always wanted Spielberg to be the director, but Adrian convinced her that Chris Columbus was Hollywood's top all-age film director. Not to mention anything else, the two "Home Imperials" not only made Macaulay King famous, but also became a classic in all-age films.

Although the plot of the Harry Potter series inevitably begins to become adult, the first two books are indeed full of childlike fun, so it is perfect for Columbus to direct it.

After Columbus came to London, Rowling quickly recognized him, and the crew's preparations and casting work were also carried out smoothly, but the right actor was still a difficult situation.

As Columbus said before, he hoped to find kids with magic, but this somewhat personal feeling can sometimes easily hinder the progress of work.

This cannot be said to be a bad thing, after all, the director has to be responsible for the entire crew, but it cannot be said to be a good thing, as this will prolong the production time of the movie.

The most important reason why Adrian was preparing for the original half a year earlier is that the children develop very quickly, especially after they are ten years old. After filming for a year, their appearance will change significantly. This is not a good thing for the movie.

However, there are not too many problems. If you have any trouble, let's make up for it from other aspects. The British responded enthusiastically to the upcoming adaptation of the Harry Potter series into a movie. At least tens of thousands of people came to sign up for the election. The British media also made a lot of reports on the auditions of the crew. The government strongly supported the Blair administration, under the lobbying of the public relations personnel sent by Adrian, that the Blair government has officially considered revising the Child Labor Law.

The British Child Labor Law has strict requirements for minors under the age of 16 to participate in filming. For example, children under the age of 13 can only work 7 hours a day and must take 3 hours of classes a day.

If the shooting goes well, such regulations are not much, but if it doesn't go well...

What's more, as mentioned before, developing children grow up very quickly and if they delay a little longer, they may face the problem of reshooting the previous things, so these laws must be revised.

Since we have officially considered it, it is no longer necessary to say what the outcome will be. The potential value of the Harry Potter movies is at least more than one billion. If the law cannot be revised and the crew will return to the United States to use American actors, it will definitely be a loss for the British government.

This is not just an economic problem, but also a naked slap in the face. Even if the Blair administration refuses, as long as the news is released, they will inevitably become enemies of the whole of Britain.

Okay, come back to the topic. In addition to these, Adrian is also ready to push it, which was originally his purpose in London.

By the way, I have a very good candidate for Hermione.

After inquiring about the relevant matters and getting a general look at the current situation, Adrian said after discussing with Columbus, Rowling and several people in charge.

Yeah?

Columbus and Rowling both showed curious expressions at the first time. You should know that so many people run for the election. Even if thousands have been eliminated, there are still thousands of children who need to be asked one by one, otherwise Columbus would not complain.

Well... Adrian tapped his finger on the head and looked at the other two people, Moralie, Hogwarts' school uniform has been designed, right?Is there any ready-made one?Suitable for children aged 9 to 11?

After getting a positive answer, Adrian asked for a Gryffindor female student costume as a sample, then found a prop set to ask for a set of Hermione's furry wigs, and then smiled at Columbus and Rowling: Sorry, for some reason, I have to make some preparations, and when you bring her over tomorrow, you will understand why I did this.

There is no need to say much about what Adrian wants to do. In his mind, who can be more suitable to play the role of Hermione besides Emma.

Will this dress be a little bigger?

In Emma's bedroom, the little girl said in her Gryffindor uniform spread on the bed, then turned her eyes to the wig next to her and sighed, "I want to wear this."

Is there any problem?Adrian asked with a smile as he watched her nagging.

certainly.Emma picked up the wig with two fingers and shook it. It was furry, don't you think it would look like a lion if I put it on?

How could it be?Adrian said as he took the wig over and put it on for her. After a few twists and turns, it was finally done, but the effect was...

I'm not right at all.Emma looked at herself in the mirror with her hands on her hips and shook her head.

You know, I'm not a makeup artist, so... Adrian behind her grabbed his head, let's do it, tomorrow I'll be on the crew, I'll let professionals take care of you and try changing clothes now.

OK OK OK.The little girl stuck out her tongue, grabbed the wig and threw it aside, and then began to take off her top.

Wait, what are you doing.Adrian shouted quickly.

Emma looked at him in confusion, but her hands kept moving for a moment: Of course, she changed her clothes, didn't you say it just now?

You should wait until I go out before taking off my clothes or go to the bathroom to change.Adrian sighed, you're 9 years old, Emma.

Having said that, the little girl didn't listen at all, and took off her tight clothes in two or three strokes.Adrian rolled his eyes and turned his back to the girl.

Really, it's not that I haven't bathed me.Emma mumbled, Adrian rolled his eyes again, and then a few teasing chuckles came from his ears.

I changed it.After a while, the girl's voice rang again. Adriano turned halfway and glanced at Emma, ​​and then turned completely after confirming that she was really dressed.

The clothes were a little bigger, after all, they were designed for an 11-year-old child, but they still made her look cute and elegant when worn on the girl, which was almost the same as Adrian's memory.

It's perfect, isn't it?It would be more suitable if the clothes were smaller.

Pulling her in front of her, tidying her clothes, and adjusting her tie, he said, this character is simply tailored for you, Emma.

However, the girl curled her lips: Do you really think I am suitable to play Hermione, Ed?

Of course, don't you like this novel very much?Adrian asked as he looked at her.

It’s one thing to like, it’s another to appear in person, which makes me... Emma thinks about it and feels a bit confused.

Yeah?Adrian narrowed his eyes and sighed after a while, "Okay, if you don't want to..."

I didn't say that.

Emma quickly interrupted his words, straightened her chest and looked righteous. I said, as long as you want, I will act well, how could I break my promise!

That's right.Adrian said leisurely, his narrowed eyes not opening.

Emma suddenly felt something was wrong, as if... he had seen it long ago, but unfortunately, before she could make a run, the other party pressed on the bed.

Oops!Help Ah!A cry of help came out from the room.

The next day, Emma, ​​dressed up slightly in front of Rowling and Columbus, appeared in front of Rowling and Columbus.

Especially Emma was raising her chest and raised her head, shook hands with them openly like Hermione with a little pride, which made them grow their mouths uncontrollably.

God Ah, I didn't think it would be the most suitable... Rowling covered her mouth, then looked at Adrian as if she wanted to save some face: You are cheating, Ed, you have to know her outfit...

Do you really think so, Joe?Adrian asked with a smile.

After hesitating for a moment, Rowling had to admit: Well, Emma is indeed very...just like she came out of the novel, oh, I really didn't expect the most suitable person to be by my side, which is incredible.

While she was sighing here, Columbus had already pulled Emma to ask the question: Have you ever acted in movies or dramas, Emma?

I have performed several dramas at school, but I often go back to the set to play when Ed was filming in London, so I know a lot about filmmaking, so you don't have to worry, Mr. Director.

Emma said with a smile, while maintaining that little proud look, as if these were trivial matters, which made her look cute and fun.

No matter who is in front of him or on which occasion, she calls Adrian Ed. She is definitely not like a guy who likes rock and roll, who seems to be a bad girl, and she must add an uncle current title.

Ha, is she your niece, Ed?Columbus asked in surprise.

Needless to say, both Rowling and Columbus were very satisfied, especially after learning about the matter between Emma and Adrian, Columbus was full of sympathy and admiration for the little girl.

The disaster of childhood made her a little precocious, but under your influence, she was not autistic, but let go of herself, while still cute, with a kind of wise and friendly magic. She is Hermione.

Columbus said at the end.

This matter was decided, but Emma still had to go through the audition process so that no one would say anything, even though this was normal.

In many movies that are publicly cast, the main characters are basically recommended by people in the circle, so the actors’ connections and agents are very important. Didn’t the original Harry also choose this?

I don’t know who will get those important characters in this version. In addition, I have to remind the crew that Ginny has to choose a well-behaved and beautiful little girl. Unless Rowling revises the outline, it is necessary to prepare for the future.

However, although Adrian wanted to stay in London and see that other characters were selected in this version, he still had a movie in his hands and could not stay outside for too long. So after confirming that Emma was playing Hermione, she stayed for another two days and then prepared to return to New Zealand.

But, before going back, there is something to do.

It's a pity that if I were younger, I would definitely come to fight for this role.

In the crew's office, Kayla said as she flipped through the design drawings about Hogwarts handed over by Emma.

Nowadays, there are many characters, such as Angelina Johnson, or Katie Bell, etc.Emma said so.

Although Kayla is five years older than Emma, ​​their relationship has always been very good, so after Emma invites her to the Harry Potter crew, she agrees without hesitation.

I wouldn't play such a small role that is not very important.

Kaila shrugged. You know, generally, movies adapted from novels will focus on depicting several protagonists. Those supporting roles will be taken out and deleted if needed.

Really?Emma asked curiously.

Of course, my mom is the screenwriter.Kaila continued to shrugg, Didn’t Ed tell you?

Yes.Adrian's voice came over at this time. Although Emma was smart, she might not understand some things.

That was before, and now I can definitely understand.Emma grimaced at Adrian who was walking over.

Of course, you are growing up now.

Adrian laughed and kissed her on the head, then looked at Kaira: Sorry, Kaira, I'm leaving London soon, so there's a lot to be busy with.

It's OK, I... know, you're always busy.

Kaila barely smiled, and the depression that had disappeared from chatting with Emma once again surged between her eyebrows, accompanied by obvious anxiety and resentment.

After a few conversations, Adrian, who saw these things, immediately asked: You seem to be very unhappy, Kayla, do you have any worries?

I... Kaila opened her mouth and closed her mouth, bit her lip and turned to one side, her irritability in her eyes became stronger and stronger.

Adrian didn't say anything, just watched her wait quietly, as did Emma next to her.

I want to talk to you, Ed.Kaila finally spoke, gritting her teeth and seemed to endure something, privately.

After finding a room without anyone, after closing the door and waiting for Kaira to take her seat, Adrian sat opposite her: Is this OK?

Kaila didn't say anything, lowered her head and kneaded her hands, as if she didn't know what to say.

Relax, Kayla, don't be so nervous, there are only two of us here.

Adrian said in a tempting manner, "I am a good listener, right?"So you can tell me what you don’t want your parents or others to know, I won’t tell you.

I have talked to my parents, but... it cannot solve the problem at all.

Kaila said irritably, except for them, you... are the only ones... that I want to talk about. Although I didn't like you very much before, you... have a very friendly feeling. At least you have never told others what we have talked about before... but...

Speaking of this, she looked up and looked at Adrian with suspicion and hesitation.

I want to apologize to you, Kayla.

Adrian immediately spoke. When I came to London to visit the set at the beginning of the year, I already found that you were in a bad mood, but I had something to deal with, so I couldn't talk to you.Although there is something wrong now, it is a little more abundant than before, so I asked Emma to invite you out.

Although it's not his business, he still apologized first. Kaila, who has been troubled by dyslexia, is a very sensitive girl. There is a strong idea that I am the world in her heart. So once there is any conflict, speaking according to her will first be the solution to the problem. A tough confrontation will only make things worse.

Originally, she had changed under Adrian's influence and after becoming friends with Emma, ​​but now Emma tells Adrian that she has become sensitive to many things again. Thinking about her previous appearance of wanting to talk to her when she came to London, Adrian asked Emma to invite Kaila here.

Is it yours that asked Emma to invite me out?

The girl asked in surprise, and nodded affirmatively. Her previous suspicion disappeared a lot, but she still hesitated and didn't continue, as if it was a little difficult to speak.

Adrian didn't urge him, and just waited patiently.Finally, Kaira spoke, and then he showed a look of surprise and shock.

What kind of woman do you like?She asked this, and then said: Or, what kind of woman do men like?

What do you ask about this?Adrian looked at her in confusion, and this question is too general, right?

All right.

Kaila closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She had already said it anyway, so it doesn't matter if she said more. Do men like women with particularly good figures?Do you particularly like women with big breasts?Is it a woman who is attractive? How great is it depends on the size of her breasts?!

If it were someone else, he might be a little confused, but Adrian immediately reacted. After all, everyone knew about Kaira's title of Princess Taiping in his previous life.

Kayla was so excited that she could guess with her knees now, but she was a little too much. How old is Ah now?

She actually started to care about this, but then again, Western girls have indeed started to develop at this time, but she looks...

Of course not.Adrian smiled, trying to make his smile look gentle.

You're lying!Kaira tightened her lips and hugged her arms, staring at him like a hedgehog that was curled up after being irritated.

I don't have it. It's multifaceted for men to like a woman, and the size of the breast is not the decisive factor.Adrian explained, but Kaila still looked unacceptable.

Well, just talking about breasts, some men do like women with big breasts, but some also like women with flat breasts. For them, flat breasts may be more attractive.

Adrian shrugged, if you want a more accurate answer, then I like you with flat breasts, Kayla.

The girl was shocked at first, and her face turned red, as if she was angry: You are still lying to me!Don't think I don't know you, those tabloids...

Can you understand a person by reading the tabloid?

Adrian spread his hands, I do like women with the right breast curve, but why can't I like women with flat breasts?That's another charm.

Kaila looked at him in a daze for a while, and her tense face finally began to relax: Prove it to me.

Ah?Adrian blinked his eyes, and before he could react, the girl grabbed his hand and pressed it on her chest, looking at him with determination: Prove it to me!
