Chatty Hollywood

? Charlotte has no plans to let Spectre Studios film "Lost."

Although this can be said to be a science fiction drama, it is not the type that Charlotte likes.

Especially in the later stages, in order to make money, the crew dragged out the story for a long time, which made people even more unhappy.

Of course, to some extent, this is also related to the style of director and producer J.J. Abrams——

This commercial film director, who is admired by Spielberg and George Lucas, has always been good at stunning beginnings, gradually mediocre stories, and speechless endings.

——This is true not only for "Lost", but also for the subsequent "Star Trek" reboot and even "Star Wars 7".

However, despite this, Abrams' status in Hollywood has continued to rise.

In this regard, Charlotte in the original time and space was speechless.

——Is it just because this guy’s name is Abrams, the same as the US military’s M1A2 main battle tank, that he is indestructible?

**********

In short, thinking of "Lost" is just a reference for Charlotte to prepare to turn "Wreck Island" into a science fiction TV series.

In the final analysis, apart from the hidden purpose of finding the Lord of the Abyss, this is the main reason why this movie is interesting.

Mr Westwood, who oversees production of the Specter TV series, agrees.

"Just how to build this "shipwreck island" and present it to the audience is a very interesting thing. What's more, how to live on a road composed of a sunken ship and form social relationships is also very interesting. "

—On the whole, even without Charlotte's request, Mr. Westwood was very interested in the story.

In addition, as a former Soviet writer, Alexander Belyaev’s copyright fees for his works are very low in today’s era, which makes it even more convenient for Spectre Studio to adapt.

And now Mr. Westwood wants Charlotte to come over and see how the filming is going. Presumably all the preparations have been completed and the official filming can begin.

"HBO has already agreed to air the show - of course,

According to their style, our plot design needs to be more exciting. "

"Exciting..."

As HBO is a pay TV station, Charlotte will not be unclear about what "stimulation" they want.

Fortunately, although there is no positive description in Alexander Belyaev's original work, the social relations on the shipwreck island he wrote are indeed a deformed and primitive model. Under such a model, the "stimulation" that HBO needs is naturally No less.

The only difference is that the original author did not specifically depict it.

Nowadays, it is natural to adapt TV series and add some drama and meat or flesh and drama...

**********

Of course, such an adaptation plan may make Alexander Belyaev's coffin unbearable.

However, for Hollywood, which has never taken moral integrity seriously, this is really not a problem.

At least, as a veteran producer, Mr. Westwood doesn’t care about these issues at all——

"We will shoot whatever the audience wants. Is there any problem with that?"

He looks rational and confident, just like a "people's artist".

However, sometimes in this world, retribution comes very quickly——

"What, Mr. Westwood had a heart attack, fell into a coma in the office, and is now sent to the hospital for emergency treatment!?"

When she heard the news, Charlotte was filming a new movie in a studio in Los Angeles with Charlize, Alexis, and the crew of "Inception."

Now, something like this has happened, and the filming can only be suspended.

"I hope this old guy can survive this time safely!"

On the way to the hospital, Charlotte looked forward to this.

——Although he has mastered powerful spells and can transform dead ghosts like Alexis into powerful ghosts and live in society as a living person again, this is ultimately different from the "flesh and bones of the living dead". .

If Mr. Westwood died directly, there would be nothing he could do.

However, in this world, many times, the good spirit does not work but the bad spirit——

"No more!"

When Charlotte rushed to the hospital, Lao Qiang, who had been guarding here before, shook his head at him.

"His heart attack was very sudden, and he was probably dead at that time - although we found it in time, it was still a little late..."

"Really……"

At this time, Charlotte didn't know what to say.

Although given Mr. Westwood's ongoing physical condition and his mantra of making movies until his death, everyone was mentally prepared for this day.

But humans are not grass and trees after all. When death knocks on the door, everyone still feels a little uncomfortable.

"Has his family been notified?"

Charlotte asked Lao Qiang.

"Notified."

Lao Qiang nodded,

"It's just that his wife recently traveled overseas with her daughter, and her son is studying at MIT, so she can't make it right away."

"So, he might have to die alone?"

"yes!"

Lao Qiang and Charlotte looked at each other, and they both sighed.

——For Hollywood film practitioners, it is not uncommon to experience various kinds of promiscuity when young and miserable life in old age.

Coupled with the structure of American society and the divorce rate, dying alone is not an empty talk.

Even those who are unlucky may face being dead for many days without anyone noticing. The corpse can only slowly rot, or even be eaten by pets at home.

Although Charlotte and Lao Qiang can be said to have happy families at present, it does not mean that they are unaware of this situation.

"Let me go see him!"

Charlotte said a few more words to Lao Qiang, and then planned to take another look at Mr. Westwood.

And Charlize was by her side with him.

——Charlize is very grateful to Mr. Westwood, the person who promoted her and Charlotte in the first place.

Although there was no deep connection, Charlize still felt very uncomfortable knowing that someone she had known for a long time was about to die.

In her opinion, the same should be true of Charlotte.

In particular, Charlotte's relationship with the other party is deeper than her own...

Therefore, Charlize did not find it strange that Charlotte had been acting gloomily.

She just stayed with her husband quietly.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the door of Mr. Westwood's ward, the gloomy expression on Charlotte's face suddenly turned into one where she couldn't laugh or cry——

"Old Tony (Mr. Westwood's nickname), I never thought that even death could stop your love for movies!?"

"What!?"

Charlotte's words stunned Charlize, but then she thought of a possibility.

The girl immediately used her not-so-powerful magic power to open her yin and yang eyes——

The ghost of Mr. Westwood was standing there with a blank look on his face!
