Chapter 33 - Chapter 33 - Back-up Script

"Do you know the X-Files?"

Louise thought for a while, and asked uncertainly "You mean that science fiction TV series?"

Laila nodded "Yes, I hope you can buy one of their Backup script. It is about the story of a person who foresaw the possibility of the crash before the plane crash, and got off the plane at the last moment, and a group of people became lucky survivors."

"This is no problem." Although Louise was curious about her How did you know that there was such a story, and still carefully recorded her request.

"Yes, there's one more thing. I already have a plan for the second movie. I need a good prop artist who can make the equipment I want."

Louise laughed "This No problem, old Todd's craftsmanship is very good, and our props are usually made by him."

"Really great?" I can't blame Laila for doubting, Phoenix's previous shots were all B-grades film at a low cost, do you expect any tall props there?

The props in this movie is a scary point, and it is also the most brilliant place. How to make the audience stand up after watching it, how to spread the atmosphere of horror into the theater, it is difficult to achieve the result she wants if there is no real thing in her hand.

And if you really are a very capable prop artist, how can you stay in the dying, almost hopeless Phoenix company and have not been poached? Before she came, many people were poached like this.

Louise nodded very surely "Don't worry, I can guarantee old Todd's skills! In fact, he has been poached many times before, but it seems that he has something to do with the boss of Reynolds before staying in the company."

Laila was clear "Well, let him come here as soon as possible. No, forget it, but wait for a while. You go to work first."

"Then I will go out first." Louise nodded and left the office.

After she left, Laila habitually held the pen and tapped the desk.

In her previous life, she knew that the script for the 'death is coming' came from the backup script of the X-Files. Later, the director James Wong took a fancy to it, bought the idea and adapted it and became a classic movie later.

This kind of outline should not cost much money, and she can do it herself if she adapts it. Now the most important thing is to write the script of the chainsaw first.

The filming of the previous life took only 18 days, and finally won more than 100 million box office worldwide. It can be said that it also created a miracle because its shooting cost was only 1.2 million. Although there is no witch's miraculous return on investment, it is still quite a dazzling achievement.

——Iwanttoplayagame. (I want to play a game with you.)

——GAMEOVER. (Game over.)

Laila thinks these two sentences are the essence of the whole movie.

The jigsaw played by Tobin is not actually a bloodthirsty and cruel person who only knows about killing. He does not blindly create death, but leaves a ray of life every time. It is this vitality that makes the movie sublimate somewhere, leaving more places to think about. She wants to add more highlights to it with her own hands, and she dare not say that it must be several times stronger than the original version. Too bad is definitely not allowed.

While Laila retired to write the script, with the advent of December, "Blair the Witch" continued to steadily advance in the global box office harvest. Even if it has been screened for a month, it still won more than 16 million in North America again, squeezing a lot of newly released movies, and staying at the third place on the box office chart without any risk.

At the same time, in dozens of countries that were screened, the box office of the witch shocked many people. The global box office reached more than 30 million in a week, and even won the title of box office champion in some countries.

This makes many people who look down on this work stunned. They couldn't figure out the magic of such a dizzy movie, how could it make so many people willing to enter the cinema for it?

An 18-year-old rich girl, who randomly spent tens of thousands of yuan to make a messy movie, won the world's 200 million yuan. This movie is too profitable, right?

But what about the movies that have invested a lot of money without splashing? Is it a script problem, or a problem with the actors? Or is it that the director is really a genius who has never met in a century?

Of all the people who doubted, Cooper was the most angry. After the Blair witch's latest box office results came out, he dropped his favorite teacup and dropped the books in the study.

Everyone can tell that Phoenix is ​​really going to be reborn from the ashes this time. It is conceivable that the next time they launch a movie and want to seek a screening, those theater owners who had been very dissatisfied with them will seriously consider them instead of treating them as bad film companies as before.

This is undoubtedly the worst news for him. What has he been aiming at Phoenix for all these years? Did he do so much before and let a movie ruin the plan?

"Damn! Damn! There must be some way to deal with her! Why does she have to be from the Moran family!" Cooper thumped the table frantically: "I won't let you go! Reynolds! I will never let go You, even if you die, I must completely destroy everything you left behind!"

Laila is a member of the Moran family, and Moran's surname represents a height he can never match . In the past, he could use the media, film reviews, money, and all methods he could think of to deal with Phoenix.

Take away the script they want when they make a movie, take away the actors they want, and take away the soundtrack people they want. How good it was then! He can take everything from them with a little profit at will.

But now it's obviously impossible! A film by a director who has created a box office of more than hundred million in the world is not something he can touch with a little profit. Which actor does not want to be in such a movie? Even if you don't need money, as long as you can be familiar with it, there are a lot of people willing!

As for the script, don't even think about it. The Blair witch's script is said to be written by the young director himself. If she can continue to write and direct herself, what else can he do to block their success?

More importantly, the surname Moran, news tycoon Osvid Moran will never sit back and watch his granddaughter be criticized by other media. If he used the media and film critics to lash out at the film as before, he would like to know that there would be the same or even more violent attacks at him.

Could he just watch the phoenix slowly full of wings?

Do not! He will never allow it! As long as he is still alive, he will never allow it! Reynolds' death will not be the end, he will kill the future of Phoenix with his own hands!

Cooper picked up the pen that had fallen on the ground and leaned on the table to write desperately.

The next day, his latest comment was published in the "News of the World".

"Crazy movie, it brought nothing but the box office."

"I was shocked when I saw the box office rankings of the new week. This is really crazy results. A ridiculous movie, it is pale, it has no soul, except It's shocking that I can't bring anything, but I have won incredible box office records one after another."
