Chapter 36 - The Upper East Side

Gaby is very professional, and Laila has learned this deeply through several hours of discussion. The child is more stubborn than her in some way, and I don't know if it's a good thing.

　　A few days later, Gaby sent the doll with white face, red lips and mosquito coils on her high cheekbones.

　　Laila is very satisfied with his craftsmanship, and even feels more weird than the dolls seen in the movie in the previous life, and you will feel cold on your back at the first glance.

　　At the same time, there are also a few small productions. Although the things are small, it does not mean that the technology contained in them is less. All of them will need to serve the movie in the future.

　　Laila picked up one piece and gestured on her body "It looks great, Gaby, you have done an amazing thing."

　　Gaby shook half of his short hair triumphantly "I said, I am the best, even the old man is no longer my opponent. I will go to the Oscar podium in the future!"

　　"Of course, I have no doubt about it." Laila nodded with a smile. She knows very well that you should never underestimate a child's rhetoric, what if it succeeds?

　　And if this time they work together very happily, in the future, she might be in the Oscar movie, and he might be there. By then, the kid will really get the golden figure he hopes.

　　In fact, as long as it is a person in the movie circle, who doesn't want to get the award that represents the highest honor? Even if the Oscars are sprayed once every year, they are all the old guys holding the awards. But there are still countless people deliberately creating movies that cater to their appetites in order to win awards.

　　Laila is no exception. She is not aiming at the Oscars now, not because she does not want an award, but because she knows that even if she does make a movie that can win an award in the future, she is destined to not win that award. The reason is simple, she is too young!

　　The average age of the Oscar judges is very large. Under the same choice, they are more willing to choose the old ones who have shown strength, rather than the little girl who has just grown up.

　　Perhaps in the eyes of those people, she can win awards at such a young age, and she will definitely win more in the future. It would be better to give awards to directors who are older and contribute more, who knows if they will pay it next time. Have a chance to come to Oscar?

　　Of course, these were all conceived in Laila's mind. The biggest reason why she didn't set her sights on the awards was actually the money.

　　Shooting an award that can be favored by Oscars is not just about shooting the movie, but also requires various aspects of publicity and public relations. Every year, there are at least a few thousand films that participate in the Oscar selection worldwide. No matter how powerful the judges are, it is impossible to watch every one, and even the ones that are nominated may not be watched.

　　So how can they be allowed to choose themselves? It is a matter of publicity and public relations. How to get to PR? One word 'money!', How to promote? Still that word 'money!'.

　　So the first thing Laila has to do now is to make money, earn the most box office with the least money, and slowly accumulate contacts and various resources at the same time. And when everything is ready, she will go to hit the award.

　　Gaby's rhetoric may seem to others to be just a child's grand aspiration, but in Laila's heart it is a wish that is very likely to be realized.

　　After entrusting her work comfort to Gaby, Laila left her half-written script and flew to London. Christmas was approaching, and her grandfather repeatedly urged her to come for holiday, and the script was not written smoothly, so she left Beverly Hills ahead of time.

　　Cooper pointed his nose to her work and said that her work had no connotation. In fact, Laila was not as calm and graceful as it appeared, but she didn't express her unhappiness.

　　So this time in SAW, she wants to deepen the human part of it on the original basis, not just show a game of killing.

　　But how much to add is an important question. Too much, the film becomes an educational film, losing the true meaning of a horror film. If it is less, the audience will not feel anything, and maybe it will interrupt the true context of the movie's plot.

　　This is the second movie, and it's also a proof that she wants to declare to those who question her that she is not a "director of a piece". So this new movie must not be lost!

　　Grandpa's New York home is located in the Upper East Side where the wealthy of New York gathers. According to Osvid, residence is also a kind of business card. Just like the clothes on the body, the makeup on the face, and the behavior and manners, they are all part of a person.

　　If you are talking about business and you meet someone who is sloppy and lives in a small old house, would you still be willing to invest money in him?

　　Therefore, when his daughter Janet went to Hollywood to develop, the old man bought her a mansion as a support for her as soon as possible.

　　The arrival of Laila made Osvid very happy. Janet is a person who has not been at home all the year round, running around the world all day, and rarely has time by his side. For the elderly, what they want most is to see the children they love, no matter how rich they are, their loneliness cannot be dispelled.

　　"Lila, you are doing a good job, you deserve to be the heir to our Moran family."

　　Osvid has not broken the smile on his face since Laila arrived. He never regretted not having a son, because he had the best daughter and granddaughter. Compared to some friends who are like prodigal sons, he feels that his descendants are treasures bestowed by God.

　　"Thank you Grandpa." Laila smiled and hugged him "Where is Grandma?"

　　"At home. Knowing that you are coming, she prepare a lot of dishes for you." Osvid patted her on the shoulder and brought her into the house.

　　This house on Fifth Avenue has a beautiful courtyard. A small vegetable garden has been cultivated by my grandmother in the courtyard. Every time Laila comes over, she will taste the vegetables grown by her own hands.

　　While waiting for grandma to cook dinner, Osvid brought Laila into the living room.

　　"I've seen your movie."

　　"That's not for you." Laila laughed.

　　Horror movies are too exciting for old people. It's not a joke to be scared.

　　Osvid snorted "Don't treat me as an old man. My body is stronger than some young men. If you don't believe me, you can ask Edmund."

　　Edmund is the private doctor of Moran's family. The person who helped Laila heal for a long time was very famous in medical skills, and he was also a family friend with Moran's family.

　　"Yes, of course you are the strongest." Laila responded kindly "I just think you should not like watching that type."

　　"Why? I can't watch horror movies to pass the time, I have to Watching some old-fashioned movies?"

　　Laila is very utterly wrong with this grandfather, who is becoming more and more like a child, as if saying everything is wrong.
