Chapter 149 - The big ship

This is a common requirement of investors and producers, either change it or roll it out. It's that simple!

Hollywood has not only many actors but also many screenwriters. It's not that you can't do without them.

In the end, the two angry screenwriters honestly went to revise the script, but they also dropped their words. If the film made after changing the script was smashed, don't blame them for not reminding! At the same time, Laila, who has not yet entered the crew, inexplicably added two "enemies."

Since the film crew hopes to be released in the second half of next year, Laila has to film after the script has been revised. The media have not been centered on her. Because of the emergence of a movie, everyone's attention has been shifted to it, that is "The Titanic!"

Although so many years have passed, Laila can still clearly remember the movie-watching frenzy caused by this movie in her native country. Countless people who may not have been to the cinema for several years or even longer have walked in again and again because of this movie and came out again and again with red eyes.

Until more than ten years later, mentioning this movie can still allow many people to talk about the plot inside, and they will hum a few words of the song "My Heart will go on" that has become popular with the movie all over the world.

The most classic scene is that James Cameron is standing on the Oscar podium, holding in his hand the Oscar golden man that all the directors dream of having, and he yelled out: "I'm the king of the world!"

This sentence Cameron shouted on the Oscar podium became the best commentary of the director who won the world's 1.8 billion US dollars at the box office. 14 Oscar nominations, 11 awards, tying the highest record in history, he is fully qualified to be such a high profile.

Laila's desire to be a director has a lot to do with seeing this scene at the time. For countless nights, she had also imagined holding the little golden man and shouting the exact words with an attitude of doing her part.

The whole Hollywood, the whole America, the whole world, because the Titanic is crazy. In a short time, it continuously refreshed various box office records, such as the single-day box office, the fastest $100 million, the fastest $200 million, and so on. Even Laila's original country also broke the record with ¥360 million, becoming the highest in history. If you add more than $300 million US dollars after being converted into 3d format more than ten years later, the box office obtained successfully surpassed the later "Avatar" after calculating inflation.

Not surprisingly, all the unlucky films that collided with this ship's schedule all sank tragically. Regardless of the degree of attention, or the rate of praise, they are all decently played.

Laila also got an invitation to the premiere because her mother and Director Cameron knew each other. She watched the Titanic again on the big screen. She didn't know whether it was a problem of the environment or the state of mind. She seemed to be unable to pay attention anymore or put effort into the plot.

Compared to Leonardo DiCaprio, who is much younger and handsome than later generations, she pays more attention to the filming technique, the angle of the lens, and the way the story is told.

If she used to be an audience when she watched this movie, now she is truly a director.

One day, she will also make movies that refresh various charts!

When the movie ended, Janet took Laila to congratulate  Director Cameron. This was only one thought under Laila's smiling face.

Just when all eyes were on the Titanic, as soon as the Christmas holidays passed, Laila quietly entered the rush hour crew. According to the requirements of the movie producers, they hope to be released in September this year. So the shooting and production time left for Laila is still very rich, and she has never been a person who can make movies slowly.

This is the first time in her life that she has served as a director in an unfamiliar crew. She clearly understands that this is not a crew composed of company employees that she can speak for. Almost when the first day arrived, she already felt the discordant atmosphere in the crew.

Where there are people, there are disputes. Laila has learned the chaos in the crew since her previous life. In contrast, Hollywood is relatively formal, and various trade unions and regulations are more bindings than in previous lives.

She has taken many crews and dealt with many problems, but she was more interested when she realized that the reason for the disharmonious atmosphere of the current crew was her.

Because of her age? Or is it because of her qualifications? Because she only made two horror films to look down on her?

Hehe.

Can she say that she likes to treat those thorns to be good babies?

If you have any tricks, just let go and see who is the one who can't stand the call for help at that time!

At the start-up ceremony, Jackie Chan didn't know why he suddenly felt a chill next to him, and then a string of goosebumps appeared on his arm. He looked in the direction of the chill in surprise and saw Laila standing there smiling brilliantly…

Movies can be regarded as a money game. Whoever pays more will work. When signing the contract, Laila asked to bring $10 million to invest in the film. Although it is not ruled out that she wanted to use the movie to make a fortune, but at the same time, she also did not want to be controlled by others.

She, who accounts for almost one-third of the investment, can be regarded as the second-largest investor outside the New Line company, and she has a considerable right to speak. If it wasn't for little disagreement, she wanted to add more investment.

Therefore, even if the people on the crew reject her, they can't express their opinions clearly, unless they don't want to continue in this crew. But at the same time, if these people want to play tricks in hidden places, they are also somewhat overwhelmed.

Laila welcomes someone to be that early bird and lets her kill the "bird" to seduce the monkey. But she also has one thing to explain to these people.

"I know that some of you don't find me pleasing to your eyes, and maybe they want to play some funny games with me. If you want to play, I will accompany you. But if it affects the shooting plan, I promise you will regret it. Another word of advice, think about the consequences when doing something. It's best to say my name twice, and I think maybe you can calm down those little flames that are beating in your hearts."

Laila said these words with a smile, and the expressions can be described as "amicable" or "kind and warm" only by looking at her facial expressions. But after adding her words, They felt a sense of killing.

She does not like to bully others, nor does she want to use her surname to achieve goals. But at the same time, she is not a pedantic person and would rather keep in good condition and not be angry with others when she encounters difficulties.

So she said very clearly that she could accompany them if they wants to play, but they can't spoil the shooting. Otherwise, Moran's surname will let them know how to behave in the future.
