Why do people like to share photos and their feelings? Isn't it just to get more attention? So, the young people who posted the photos were happy and very willing to describe the scene to others. Moreover, this description inevitably included a lot of bragging, leaving those asking questions stunned.
The media couldn't miss this opportunity and immediately contacted those who could release the photos in various ways. They were willing to pay for the rights to use those photos and hoped to interview the photographers. However, there were not many people who could attend the engagement banquet who were short of money, so not many photos leaked out.
But even with so few photos, the outside world was still intrigued. Especially since those photos not only featured the two main characters but also many leading figures from various industries, as well as many well-known Hollywood stars.
So, after some media published the photos, the whole situation took on a bizarre aspect. While everyone was interested in the engagement, they were even more interested in the people who attended. After admiring the engaged couple in the photos, they began to speculate about the identities of the other attendees at the banquet.
This speculation was harmless, but as the identities of those people were exposed, people discovered that it seemed like every rich and famous person they knew in America had appeared. For example, in one photo, Laila was talking to the CEO of a multinational corporation, and in another, a well-known philanthropist was laughing.
Not to mention the Hollywood stars. Just look at the two people leaning against Roy; one was Robert Downey Jr., who had revived his career and reached the pinnacle of life again with "Iron Man," and the other was Leonardo DiCaprio, the handsome young actor who had become red-hot in Hollywood after "Titanic."
"So amazing! My eyes are dazzled!"
"Are they trying to familiarize us with the faces and names of celebrities?"
"If the engagement ceremony is this grand, what will the wedding be like?"
"Who knows when they will get married?"
"I just remembered that Laila's last name is Moran. Her director's name is so prominent that I almost forgot she is also a member of the Moran family!"
"You're not alone. She's really outstanding. I believe many people think of her first when they hear 'Moran,' and then think of the Moran Group."
Laila helplessly looked at the countless comments and questions flooding into her Facebook account. She didn't expect that although journalists weren't invited, there were still so many "junior journalists." But since it had already come to this, there was nothing she could do to restore the situation.
Marriage...
For the first time in two lifetimes, she was a little apprehensive.
She didn't know if this counted as pre-marriage jitters, but she felt that there was no need to rush into marriage. Maybe waiting another two years would be more suitable for her. But considering Roy and her family, she didn't voice these thoughts.
Nolan's arrival interrupted Laila's random thoughts. Looking at the future director who was staring at her with a face full of sorrow, she laughed. Indeed, she still couldn't do without movies. Just catching a whiff of the film's atmosphere could make her clear-headed and dispel all distractions.
"Finally, it's my turn, right?"
"My bad, we can start our work now." Laila chuckled.
Nolan, who had been waiting for months, wasn't about to let his guard down just because of her words. "Are you sure nothing else will come up to interrupt us?"
Laila felt a bit embarrassed. "I swear, no one will disturb our work again."
"Good." Nolan didn't hesitate to sit down in the chair opposite her desk and threw a few scripts from his bag onto the table in front of her. "We've been studying several scripts for the past few months. Take a look and see which one is more suitable, and then we can revise it together."
"So many?" Laila was surprised as she flipped through the scripts. It seemed that he hadn't been idle these past few months. But why did he always come to her to complain? It made her feel guilty.
"Is it a lot?" Nolan didn't think so. "Which movie's script isn't revised many times before filming?"
Laila knew that scripts were often revised many times before filming. She was the same; even though she knew what the future movies would be like, not every plot and line would be the same as in her previous life. Rebirth didn't give her a photographic memory; her ability to remember everything about movies was entirely due to her diligent study in her past life. But even so, she couldn't make the movie exactly like the original.
Moreover, she wasn't satisfied with just making the movie; although the theme was fixed, she still hoped to add more of her own ideas to it.
Nolan picked up one of the scripts. "We've already decided on the Joker as the antagonist and chosen Roy to play him. But as for the plot, I have many ideas that I want to incorporate into the movie, and I accidentally wrote so much."
"Having ideas is good, but it can't be too messy." Laila set the script aside. "Like my mother designing clothes, if you mix all kinds of styles, it's not clothes, but a cover-up. Your memory fragments handle this very well; the only flaw is the pacing. Once you master that, you'll become a legend in Hollywood."
Nolan raised an eyebrow. "Are you talking about yourself?"
Laila chuckled at being teased. "I didn't know you could flatter people like this." This flattery was so profound that even she felt a bit floaty.
"I'm not flattering you, and these words aren't mine." Nolan shrugged. "Your fans online really admire you."
"Of course, they have good taste." Laila wasn't modest in this regard; her fans were naturally the best.
Nolan wanted to roll his eyes.
From then on, the two began to study the script.
Meanwhile, the media received news that the new Batman movie, "The Dark Knight," had officially started, and it was immediately exposed in bold headlines in the entertainment section.
Fans had been eagerly awaiting this news. It had been several months! Starting last year, after experiencing so many twists and turns, they finally invited Laila to direct, making countless Batman fans and movie fans very excited. Who didn't know how powerful Laila was? With her directing, who would worry that this movie wouldn't become a classic?
Especially for Batman fans, they were counting the days and waiting for the movie to be released. They hoped that after the movie was released, they could see Batman's figure on various movie rankings. Whether it was box office rankings or word-of-mouth rankings, they hoped that their beloved hero would be loved by more people.
In making a superhero movie, the antagonist is an important character. Only a powerful antagonist could highlight the strength of a superhero. If they only fought some small fry, the audience would certainly not have much understanding of the superhero's strength.
So, in the new Batman movie, who would be his old opponent was the focus of everyone's attention.
