Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 680: Midnight bell

   With Charlotte's support, Charlize decided to return to South Africa in the end.

   Of course, not now.

  ——Since Charlotte has agreed to accompany her, it is natural to wait until the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is over, when there is time.

   Especially, Charlotte would like to go to the Cape of Good Hope in the southernmost part of Africa to take a look——

   "The legend of the flying Dutchman has existed for centuries."

   Charlotte deliberately transformed the appearance of Captain Octopus head in front of Charlize-neither of them took off their makeup anyway.

"In most legends, it was the captain of this ship who refused to retreat in the storm, insisting that he would go around the Cape of Good Hope even on Judgment Day-at that time, it should be called the Cape of Storm-and he was cursed and turned into "Flying Dutchman" who can never enter Hong Kong."

   "I have heard of this legend."

  Charlize nodded.

"After all, the Cape of Good Hope can be regarded as South Africa's most famous thing in the world besides diamonds and gold and the Boer War-I have heard of such bad legends when I was a child, but it has something to do with you want to go to the Cape of Good Hope. Woolen cloth?"

   "I want to make the "Ovelia" more powerful."

   Charlotte shrugged.

   "My subsequent plan on spells will probably need to explore some mysterious places deep in the sea, so if you can get stronger power in the ocean through the legend of the "flying Dutchman"."

   "Is it the Lord of the Abyss?"

  Charlize once heard Charlotte talk about related things, so naturally he remembered it for the first time.

   "The ABCD in our house was specially prepared for this, right?"

   "I think so!"

   Charlotte smiled,

   "Speaking of which, how do you feel about using these four mermaid girls as maids?"

"fantastic!"

   Charlize has a weird face,

   "They are very comfortable with the environment of Winchester Mystery House and get along well with Ovelia, but they lack common sense and often do things that make people laugh or cry."

"For example?"

   "When I saw a scene of the sea playing on TV, I thought it was connected to the sea, and then I wanted to get in from the screen, doesn’t it count?"

   "...If they really get in and get out again, they will become another kind of ghost!"

   Charlotte was speechless, and Charlize nodded.

   "Sadako! We watched the Japanese horror movie together, and it's not bad-speaking of it, didn't you say that you wanted to make a remake of that movie? How are you preparing now?"

   "Remake? Did I say it!?"

   Charlotte was taken aback, then remembered--

   Indeed, after the Japanese version of "The Ring of Midnight" was released in 1998, Charlotte also found the tape and watched it with Charlize.

   At that time, he did say casually that he wanted to remake this movie or something.

   However, maybe because of the long time with Charlotte and a deeper understanding of Eastern culture, Charlize was also scared enough by Sadako who crawled out of the TV screen.

  —As a result, after watching the video tape, Charlotte "comforted" Charlize in bed for a long time, and then left the remake behind.

   And now I think of it...

   "It seems to be a good remake of "Midnight Ring"!"

  -In fact, in Charlotte's original time and space, Hollywood did remake "The Ring of Midnight."

   Although in the eyes of many Orientals, this is just a traditional American plasma film, and it is not as impressive as the original "Midnight Bell", but the Americans themselves think it is not bad.

  —In fact, this situation often occurs when Hollywood remakes of excellent films from other cultural circles.

  ——The American version of "Infernal Affairs", in the eyes of most Orientals who have read the original Hong Kong version, is messy. But this movie is highly rated in the United States, and director Martin Scorsese even won the Oscar for Best Director, the Golden Man.

  Of course, this little golden man, to some extent, is actually the consolation prize or lifetime achievement prize given to Martin by the Academy of Film Science and Art.

   But being able to win the award through the remake of "Infernal Affairs" also shows that the film is still well shot in the eyes of American audiences.

   The same is true of the US version of "Midnight Ring".

   Especially, in Charlotte's original time and space, the director who remakes this movie is still the director of the first three "Pirates of the Caribbean" in that time and space, Gore Wibinski.

   "This is also a kind of wonderful fate!"

   Charlotte pondered.

  ...In short, after his wife's prompting, Charlotte felt that "Midnight Bell" was worth a remake.

   Of course, he doesn't need to be directed by himself.

  -After all, as a major commercial director, it seems a bit of a decline to remake a low-cost Japanese horror film.

   But it’s okay to be a producer.

   As for the director’s job, I can leave it to the old gun!

   It's really impossible, and it's not impossible to drag Gore Wibinski over.

   Anyway, in this time and space, without the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, the other party's worth is not high...

  **********

   Actually, Charlotte would want to remake "The Ring of Midnight", mainly because of "Sadako".

  ——If the opponent can be realized through the remake of "Midnight Bell" in the United States, Charlotte will have another powerful ghost in his hands.

  Especially, considering that as a producer, in the remake of "Midnight Bell", Charlotte can also handle some of the shots himself...

  -After the movie is finished, Sadako's crawling out of the TV screen must be very realistic.

  ——Especially many horror film fans in the United States like to rent DVDs or videos to go home and watch them alone in the middle of the night...

   Charlotte felt that Sadako would definitely be able to provide him with a lot of mana by then, and he would be extremely powerful because of the "sour and refreshing" experience of the audience.

  *********

   Of course, these are all future things.

   At present, Charlotte is mainly discussing with Charlize, or when will he return to South Africa.

   Actually, even without considering the relationship between the "flying Dutchman" and the Cape of Good Hope~www.readwn.com~Charlotte is somewhat interested in South Africa.

  —After all, because of the identity of the Oscar queen and the admiration and promotion of South Africa, Charlize is the same as the original time and space, but with the addition of the "South African Diamond".

   Charlotte sometimes teases her like this when getting along with her.

   Just like now, he pinched his wife’s peculiar feeling of some diamonds and jewels, and laughed in his ears.

   It’s just that, because of the nerve shock, Charlize has no time to pay attention to what he says...

  *********

   In short, Charlotte and Charlize had a pretty good Christmas in Dominica.

  Although the two have left a cheeky image in the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" because of this clearance incident, no one dared to complain.

   What's more, on Christmas Eve, Ovelia was still in a spiritual state, riding on the "Ovelia", and came to Dominica through the cracks...

   You know, in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew, but there are less than half of the ghosts and monsters.

   They all lost their tempers by Ovelia, the ghost and spirit.

   As for those human members who can't see Ovelia, they are even more unlucky.........
