Rebirth in America

Chapter 214 I have a movie

Paris, France, inside a high-end restaurant.

Alex raised his head and looked around. In the dark environment, the lights on each table were so dazzling, like little stars falling on the earth at night. Each table is an island, and the specially created atmosphere allows people on this island to focus on the people around them. There is something invisible that closely connects people at the same table.

Soon, he focused his attention on Brigitte. Brigitte's outfit today was not as trendy as when we first met. A pure white shirt, dark skirt, and a few simple pieces of jewelry immediately highlighted her proud figure and innocent face.

Brigitte, dressed simply, changed her previous mature and sexy image, revealing her girl-next-door side.

What can be said is that whatever a woman needs to feel, she can become.

Even if she is a slut one moment, she can be like a chaste saint the next moment, making men fascinated and crazy about her. Such women understand men's thoughts better than other women. They can dress themselves up according to men's ideas, and the image they appear in front of people can change at any time.

When they first arrived, Nick was busy talking on the phone. The place was quite fancy and there was a phone on every table. This makes it convenient for those in need to make or receive calls at any time outside.

"That's what I said, I know, I have to hang up first." Nick said hurriedly to the person on the other end of the phone: "I have an important matter here. I will talk to you when I get back."

After finishing speaking, Alex and Morris happened to come to stand in front of them. The waiter left after whispering a few words, which were nothing more than some polite words for receiving guests.

"Hello, Brigitte and Nick, I'm sorry, there was a traffic jam when we got here."

Morris opened his mouth and told lies. They were not stuck in traffic at all just now. In fact, they arrived at the hotel on time. I just didn’t expect Brigitte and Nick to arrive early. So he said this casually.

Alex looked at Brigitte with a smile, and then followed Maurice to the opposite side of them. He pulled a white cloth from the table and spread it in front of him to avoid staining his clothes while eating.

"Haha, it doesn't matter. In order to wait for our heartthrob and handsome boy Alex, my Brigitte can wait forever."

Hearing Nick's joking words, Alex smiled at Brigitte, but he didn't say anything.

The other party didn't give Morris time to speak. He immediately continued: "When I met Brigitte, she was still a little girl. I didn't expect that she grew up all of a sudden. Hey, time flies so fast."

"Oh? Have you and Brigitte known each other for a long time?"

Morris followed the other person's words and chatted. He heard that Nick and Brigitte were related, but he didn't know if it was true.

"Yeah. Speaking of which, I'm still Brigitte's cousin! When Brigitte wanted to make a movie, her family didn't allow it, so she ran away. Fortunately, she still remembered me as her uncle, otherwise, we wouldn't have Just sit here."

Nick said with a look of reminiscence. After another contact, Alex finally felt that there was something different between Nick and others, that is, his tone of voice and movements were a bit effeminate.

"Uncle Nick! Stop talking. They won't be interested in our past events!"

When Brigitte spoke, she still looked like a girl. It was impossible to tell that she had been married once before and finally divorced. If she told others, she was still underage. I guess no one would doubt it.

"No, I have to make it clear to avoid misunderstanding by outsiders!" Nick kept talking about the past.

It turns out that Nick and Hua Ting knew each other. They were in the film industry together, they were both French, and of course they had a close relationship. According to his description, Hua Ting was simply a weird uncle who tricked people into eating candy, and deceived Brigitte into a mess. Brigitte was still underage at the time, and she was already so fascinated by Hua Ting that she vowed to marry Hua Ting.

"Oh, you think Hua Ting is a man? Damn, he is just a guy who is jealous of women and doesn't look down on beautiful girls."

"Okay, Uncle Nick, the more you talk, the more..."

Brigitte, who was blushing, quickly stopped Nick from continuing. She looked at Alex with some embarrassment and said softly: "Don't listen to his nonsense. Hua Ting is actually a very nice person and takes good care of me."

"Brigitte is the best actress I have ever seen. There is no doubt about this." Nick boasted about Brigitte in front of everyone. He said: "Her acting skills on the screen are amazing, as if she They are born the same. It’s not just me, a lot of people think that way.”

Speaking of acting skills, Alex took the time to watch some of Brigitte's movies, such as "God Created Woman", "Girl in Bikini" and so on. In these movies, Brigitte's clothing style is very bold. At least for people of this era, it is a movie that breaks many taboos and can have a great impact on conservative social concepts.

But Brigitte is basically a vase in the film, and what men look for is not her acting skills, but her figure, appearance, and the clothes she wears.

However, for this kind of sedan chair carrying people, Alex and the others couldn't just jump out and say to Brigitte: "Well, your acting skills still have some problems such as this and that. If they are solved, what will be your next movie?" How good is it, etc.”

In fact, the entire topic was under Nick's control, and soon they were talking about DreamWorks movies, Brigitte's recent situation, etc.

"Speaking of DreamWorks, I think there is a movie now that is suitable for Brigitte. I wonder if you are interested in starring in it?"

Alex said seriously, and his words made Morris beside him stunned for a moment. After all, DreamWorks' plans have been finalized, and neither the director nor the actors can change. Unless a new movie is made, there is really no new position for Brigitte, and this is the heroine.

Most of DreamWorks' films are known for their excellent production, and even independent films submitted to those directors are required to be perfect. Excellent production means that the requirements for directors and actors are high. Ordinary vase roles will basically not appear, let alone appear as heroines in DreamWorks movies.

Brigitte as the heroine? This investment is too big!

Morris thought to himself beside him: "I asked you to unspoken rules, but this is not how you do it. At most, you can give a secondary supporting actress and give her more money. If you let her be the heroine, it will be a waste It doesn’t matter how much money you make for making a movie. If you don’t get it right, won’t you lose your own reputation?”

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but kick Alex lightly on the ground a few times, but the other party never responded, so he simply kicked Alex hard.

"Ouch!"

Nick suddenly yelled, which surprised everyone and didn't know what happened. Just when they focused their attention on Nick's face, the other party already knew who kicked him, and saw him winking at Morris.

"What's wrong?" Brigitte asked concerned.

"It's okay. A big mosquito just bit me. I'll just wipe it with some medicine when I get back and it'll be fine."

Big mosquito?

There are actually mosquitoes in a place like this?

Everyone was doubtful. But I don’t know if it’s true or false. But Morris soon knew what was going on. Because he was "bitten" too. Nick kicked him lightly under the table, as if to hint something.

When he thought that he had mentioned the wrong person and kicked Nick, he felt his anus tighten. He quickly lowered his head to eat.

Alex glanced at them inexplicably, not knowing what Morris and Nick were doing, and continued: "Yes, this movie was only confirmed not long ago. It is about an astronaut who encounters an accident in outer space. , and then went to a strange planet. On that planet, he met a beautiful heroine, and also discovered that there was a dangerous creature on the planet. In order to survive, they had to work hard together..."

"So. This is a science fiction movie? Astronaut! Oh my god, just thinking about this movie makes people feel very interesting and it will definitely be exciting!"

Nick said loudly before he finished listening. He looked very satisfied with the film. It's not just him. Brigitte and Morris were also attracted by the plot described by Alex.

What is the hottest topic of this era?

That’s right, rockets, satellites and astronauts! The competition between the United States and the Soviet Union in the aerospace field not only had an impact on government departments, but also had a huge impact on ordinary people. Various science fiction themes revolve around space. Novels, comics, movies, etc. ushered in a blowout during this period, and a large number of space stories appeared one after another.

"However, it must cost a lot of money to shoot such a movie!"

Brigitte asked curiously. She was not worried about Alex's nonsense, but wanted to know how much this kind of movie cost. When you mention it to others in the future, you can also talk about how many movies you have made with investment.

"Well, I guess it will cost $5 million anyway!"

Alex casually mentioned a number. He didn't know how much it would cost, but if he could spend several million to make a movie, it was already a high investment.

$5 million!

Just to make a science fiction movie!

She is still a heroine!

Brigitte was already very excited when she thought of this. If it weren't for the table across the table, she might have jumped on Alex right now. The movies she shot in the past only invested a few hundred thousand dollars at most, and basically never invested more than a million dollars.

Unexpectedly, Alex, who had only met once or twice, was so generous that he immediately offered 5 million US dollars. If this movie is released successfully, not only will Brigitte's popularity increase a lot, but she may also be able to successfully transform.

Nick was even more miserable than Brigitte. He screamed: "5 million? Are you serious?"

Even Morris was surprised. He didn't know whether Alex was acting on a whim or just talking nonsense. If you really invest these 5 million US dollars, if you don't plan it carefully, if you can't make back your investment, it will just go down the drain.

"So is there a script?" Nick took the opportunity to ask: "Since it is confirmed that Brigitte will star in this movie, I want to get the script as soon as possible so that she can memorize more lines."

When it came to memorizing lines, Brigitte's face turned red for no apparent reason. Anyone who has filmed with her knows that getting Brigitte to remember her lines is the most difficult thing. This is no wonder for her, after all, after she has her beauty, others will only pay attention to her appearance. As for whether you can remember your lines or your acting skills, that's not very important.

"Script?" Alex answered quickly without any hesitation: "The script will be sent over tomorrow, don't worry. We are very efficient in everything we do. Isn't that right? Maurice! "

Morris immediately lied to Alex: "Of course, we came to Paris just to find a suitable heroine. Of course we took the script with us."

Brigitte looked at them and asked enthusiastically: "What about the male protagonist? Who is the male protagonist!"

"Uh, this..."

Morris almost couldn't answer, but fortunately Alex helped him and said: "The leading actor has been determined for a long time, and of course I will play it myself. This is the biggest investment of DreamWorks this year. Who will play it if I don't play it?"

"Yes, yes! Alex plays the leading role. This is his first time starring in a movie. Well, speaking of it, many people have been hoping to see Alex on the screen in the past few years. I guess once this news gets out . It will immediately attract the attention of many movie fans."

Morris brought the incident to life. It seems like they actually have a movie for Brigitte and Alex to star in together. But that’s it. Even if there is no such movie, there will definitely be one.

For example, Alex and the others previously invested US$5 million to hire Brigitte to play the heroine. There are still some doubts. But when they heard that Alex was also going to play the leading role, they were all shocked. You must know that Alex is not only famous in the film industry, but also many people who don't watch movies. I know there is such a person.

In the past few years, Alex has often created a lot of things across borders, including music, novels, movies, TV, comics, technological inventions, space rockets, etc. Every time he enters a field, he can shake things up. Generally speaking, as long as you see Alex in a certain industry, everyone will be shocked by what Alex has done.

Now someone is telling them that Alex is returning to the film industry.

This kind of news just needs to get out. It will immediately make the headlines in various countries. Brigitte and the others were convinced of such a reaction, and the real reaction would even be much greater than they imagined.

"That's great!"

Brigitte couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and sat next to Alex, hugging him tightly. He also gave me a series of passionate kisses.

In such a high-end place, such a move quickly attracted the attention of many people.

The hotel waiter had to come over and ask the guests what they wanted, if they wanted to order food, etc.

This caused Brigitte and Alex to immediately separate and return to their original positions. Eventually they had to stop talking, finish ordering, and then talk slowly while eating.

Morris finally finished the meal. After returning to his residence, he immediately asked: "We at DreamWorks have a very tight schedule, but no one can shoot your science fiction film with an investment of 5 million." .”

Before Alex could speak, he immediately asked: "Where will you get the script for Brigitte and the others tomorrow? Is it possible that you are rushing to write it overnight?"

"Of course," Alex shrugged and said, "I've already prepared it, just watch it! It's just..."

"Just what?"

Morris immediately asked nervously, he was afraid that Alex would lose his temper at the critical moment.

"It's just that I don't know whether I should publish a novel first or make a movie first!" Alex shook his head and said in annoyance: "It's really hard to choose, publish a novel or make a movie? In that sense, after publishing the novel, Only when you make a movie can more people watch it. But the time is so tight, I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it in time!”

Morris smiled: "Don't worry, just finish the script first and then talk about it!"

That night, Alex sat down in front of the typewriter and typed out a script. The script totaled more than a hundred pages and about 100,000 words, and it took Alex a whole night to complete.

"Ouch! My hands are sore from the beating!" Alex couldn't help complaining when he handed the script to Morris.

He had already thought about the details of the script clearly in his mind, but it took a lot of effort to type it out. At least these 100,000 words were typed out by his hands. Even if he didn't have to think, it would still be tiring.

Morris really didn't expect that Alex would solve the script problem in one night. He said in disbelief: "I thought you had prepared the script a long time ago, but I didn't expect that you would actually write it now."

He took the script and flipped through a few pages before he was attracted by the story! After he finished watching it all, he raised his head and said to Alex: "Who will be the director of this movie? If no one is there, I will make it!"

Alex scratched his head and said, "I originally wanted to write, direct, and act myself. Since you..."

Before Morris could finish his words, he saw the script handed back: "Forget it, if you want to be the director yourself, I won't argue with you." After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but added: " But your script is really well written, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net I don’t know what’s going on until the last moment!”

As he spoke, he shook his head repeatedly and sighed: "The last scene was the finishing touch, it was so shocking!"

"Oh? You also think this ending is good? I originally wanted to use another ending!"

"Of course. Originally the protagonist thought he was on an alien planet, but unexpectedly he returned to the earth, and mankind has been destroyed. In this way, the initial sense of familiarity can be explained. It turns out that the earth has been destroyed by mankind. As a result of the war, only the remnants of various civilizations remain.”

Alex nodded and said, "Yes, before seeing the wreckage of the Statue of Liberty, the protagonist still had hope, but when he saw it, he was completely desperate."

Morris suddenly thought of a question: "What do you plan to call this movie?"

"Planet of the Apes! What do you think?"

"Planet of the Apes? Well, Planet of the Apes! What a great name, I like it!"
