Dear Ya-Ching:

I have written to Arthur Willi of our New York Office with reference to you. I showed the producer of "China Sky," Maurice Geraghty, your 16 mm. film, and he was quite enthusiastic.

We have sent Mr. Willi a script, and I am sure that if you will go in and get it and prepare yourself for a recording scene from the script with Miss Marian Robertson, we'll get a worthwhile quality so we can try and sell you at this end. That is, if you are still interested. There should be a good Chinese actor opposite you, playing the role of Chen-ta. It will appear much more believable than having some straight American or English actor reading he lines.

With kindest personal regards,

Sincerely, 

Ben
