Chatty Hollywood

Judy Foster did call Charlotte, and did not say the specific movie name, but when she mentioned Washington Irving’s "Legend of Sleepy Hollow", Charlotte immediately reacted.

"Decapitated Valley"!

This is a movie that Charlotte liked very much in his previous life, adapted from Washington Irving's "Legend of Sleepy Hollow."

So when he heard what Judy Foster said, he understood.

It's just that the world's "Guillotine Valley" was only released in 1999, and now it has been advanced to 1995. Apart from anything else, can the special effects technology keep up?

Charlotte remembers very clearly that although "Decapitated Vale" has a strong dark gothic style due to director Tim Burton's own style, the special effects components still have a large proportion.

Before the Hollywood special effects companies have been polished by the exaggeration of "Titanic", will those special effects be more difficult to do?

Charlotte never thought that those special effects could not be done, but in many cases, if there is no previous experience to learn from, the cost and time required to achieve it will rise sharply.

This is one reason why many Hollywood directors will worship James Cameron.

This great **** is a pioneer in Hollywood film technology!

Think about it, how much new technology development cost does he have left for everyone?

From a cost point of view, although Charlotte admires Kashen, she has no interest in being such a pioneer.

At least not in the movie "Dropped Head".

However, after another thought, he suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity.

Because he has an advantage that no individual director has

He can control ghosts!

Other directors need to design for a long time, and then burn money for special effects scenes, he may easily do it as long as he finds the right ghosts or spells.

Especially those special effects scenes involving ghosts!

However, in order to prevent others from noticing what he knows about spells, he had better create a studio as a cover.

In this way, in the face of other people's problems, just say that the studio's technology is awesome.

Besides, this is actually a good way to get money

For example, for a special effect on ghosts, the price on the market may be 100 US dollars, and he can only quote 90 US dollars in order to ensure that he wins it.

Anyway, the fact is that he doesn't need to spend a dime, just find a real ghost, or cast a few spells. Isn't 90 dollars his pure profit? ?

If this is the case, after some big productions with special effects costs accounting for 70% of the total production costs appear in the future, he may earn more than the producers who take the box office share by relying on special effects outsourcing alone!

Of course, for the moment, it is still a fantasy. At best, he can do this in the films he is leading.

However, thousands of miles away, starting with a single step, the first step is always to be taken.

Isn't it a very suitable starting point for a movie with special effects such as "Guillotine Valley" that is not very large and has ghost elements?

This is why Charlotte hopes that its studio can have a special effects department.

"However, even if there is a movie, to form what you call a special effects department, we have to recruit people after all?"

The old gun is still thinking about Charlotte's words,

"Will your freak friend who is researching new technologies with you come over?"

"Because of some agreements signed with the current company, she cannot leave from there in the short term, and can only provide remote technical support for the time being."

"She (she)!?"

Lao Qiang and Addison Yang noticed a word at the same time,

"That Silicon Valley geek friend you mentioned is a female!? Female programmer!?"

"What's wrong!"

Charlotte looked disapproving.

"Are female programmers unusual?"

"Curious!"

"Of course it's surprising. I always thought programmers were a separate species, and there were no females at all!"

"..."

Listening to the prejudiced words of these two guys, Charlotte didn't know what to say for a while.

"By the way, what's her name?"

Old Gun asked after being surprised.

"Alexis Rachel Haydn."

Charlotte said the name he had prepared. At this moment, I heard someone ask behind me,

"What happened to Alexis?"

It was Charlize who was talking.

The girl has just cooked a large bottle of lemonade in the kitchen of her new home, and she wants to ask the three people who are helping to move to taste it.

Then, she seemed to hear the name of Alexis.

"We are talking about that fellow Alexis."

Charlotte blinked at the girl.

"Speaking of the new movie special effects technology she helped me get!"

When does Alexis still have this technology?

Charlize was very confused.

However, seeing Charlotte's gesture, she also knew that the other party was deceiving 80% of the time, so she asked in a familiar tone:

"Speaking of, how is she doing recently?"

"Still the same."

Charlotte was very satisfied with Charlize's reaction speed.

Although the performance of Charlize Theron, who has won the Oscar statuette, is not very good from the evaluation of the last life, but now this Charlize who has been with himself for more than a year

"Sally, I think your acting has improved a lot recently!"

After roughly packing up the things and sending away the old gun and Addison Yang, the night has fallen. Charlotte stretched out her thumb and admired the girl's improvisation.

"I have lied with you a lot more times, and I have practiced it."

The girl sighed leisurely.

"..."

"Let's talk about it, what's the matter?"

Asking Charlotte to be out of words in a sentence, Charlize pulled the topic directly back to the topic.

"What do you mean by the old guns about Alexis?"

"That's the post-resurrection identity I prepared for her."

Charlotte shrugged.

"Although it is not a complete resurrection."

"So fast!?"

Charlize was taken aback.

"Didn't you say that there is still one condition missing?"

"Yes, but it's coming soon!"

Charlotte explained,

"Judy Foster has the intention of adapting "Legend of Sleepy Hollow" and wants me to help. If everything goes well, I can create a demon tree that communicates life and death."

Having said that, what he thought of was the death tree in the original "Driftwood Valley" movie that would bleed and the tree hole was filled with human heads.

In the movie, the tree is the passage for the headless horseman to travel between the Yin and Yang worlds. Isn't this setting perfect to meet his needs?

"However, before filming starts, we have to find Alexis's bones first!"

Charlotte concluded.

"OK."

Charlize agreed casually, but his expression was a little absent-minded.

"Sally, what's the matter with you?"

Charlotte asked worriedly.

"Aren't you leaving?"

Charlize looked at Charlotte and bit his lip.

"go!?"

Charlotte was taken aback, looking at the girl's shy eyes that seemed to be dripping, suddenly remembered the appointment two days ago.

I see!

He got it,

"Sally, are you going to fulfill the agreement today and "make a dinner" for me?"

"…All right."

Charlize's face turned redder.

"I'll go and prepare first."

After speaking, the girl left as if to escape.

Charlotte was a little bit enthusiastic. He took advantage of the short break that the girl had prepared, and checked around in the villa to avoid leaving holes that could be easily penetrated until

"Charlotte?"

The girl's voice came from the kitchen.

Looking through the light, the girl's blonde hair was shining, as if with a halo.

She was wearing a white and blue plaid apron, and two slender arms were placed straight together, with her hands behind her back. It was almost like the armless Venus.

Charlotte swallowed uncontrollably.

"I'm going to turn it over now!"

The girl whispered.

Charlotte's brain burst, and just about to nod, he noticed Charlize's chest.

Well, it's actually beautiful there too. but

"Sally, can you put that spider in another room first!"

This kind of beautiful moment, even if the spider is not conscious now, being watched by her, the mood is very complicated! !
