Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 333 "Pearl Harbor"

The movies made by Michael Bay should not be so bad.Laila knows that even though film critics and the media of later generations have attacked him a lot, they think he can only play explosions and make some commercial films and so on.Still can't deny his success.

Why do so many people say bad things about him and countless producers want him to make movies?It is because his commercial films always make a lot of money.

Which one would you choose, a director of a commercial film that makes a lot of money without connotation or a director of an art film that makes a lot of connotation but loses a lot of money?I believe that no one will make a wrong choice.

Art?If there is no money to eat, who will study what art is?
Laila suffered a lot in her previous life, and she knows best the pain of not having money.In her previous life, she saved all the money she earned in order to shoot her own movie, so that a director like her didn't even have a car or a house, and her life was worse than that of some low-level extras.

Even so, she died without making enough money to make a movie of her own.She was not a genius in her previous life, and she couldn't make a cheap and box office movie like "The Blair Witch".Although it is related to the general environment, it is also related to her only desire to make a "big" production at the time.She didn't dare to think of hundreds of millions, and it would be nice to have tens of millions of investments.

As for the result... huh.A new Leila Moran is born and that's the result.

In the afternoon, Laila went to the enclosed area next to the theme park.Under the huge dome, there is a pirate ship that has been widely reported - the Black Pearl.

After she came, she found that she got out of the car first, and all the crew members who were supposed to be working were all standing under the shed in a daze.

"What's wrong? Why isn't it working?"

"Boss, do you think seeing this kind of thing as soon as you come in can make people go to work in peace?" Roy called, pointing at the huge pirate ship in front of him.

Laila gave him a strange look: "Hasn't this boat been exposed long ago?"

"But can the photos in the newspaper be the same as the real thing in front of you?" Roy rolled his eyelids: "The photos can make a grain of rice look like a planet. What can you expect to understand through the photos?"

"So that's how it is." Laila understood, "Then I'll leave you another 10 minutes to be surprised. I'll make a phone call first."

There is such a boss, the crew and actors all chuckled.Did not wait 10 minutes, immediately went to perform their duties.

I can't blame them for being surprised, it's really too big!
The pirate ship that Laila plans to use as an exploration house in the future is the same as the original version. It is a replica of the 17th-century style double sailboat "Mrs. Washington". It has 32 16-pound cannons and is the fastest ship in the Caribbean in the movie.

More importantly, this ship is not a prop, but a real ship, and it is floating in a huge puddle at this moment!

If it's just a movie, it doesn't really need such a big show, but this ship will appear in the next series of movies in the future, anyway, it won't be wasted, and she doesn't mind spending more, so that people who come to the theme park will be shocked once.At the same time, the majesty and might of the big ship will also be shown in the movie. Think about the scene of the Black Pearl, which is many times cooler than the original version, appearing on the big screen. Thinking about it makes people feel trembling!
"Leila, I already got the title of that movie." Louise's voice came from the phone.

"What is it?"

"Pearl Harbor!"

"..." Laila almost dropped the phone on the ground. "Sure?"

"Yes, the source is reliable."

"I see." Laila squeezed her forehead with the hand that wasn't holding the phone as she hung up the phone.It turned out to be "Pearl Harbor"!Fay is too good at picking movies, right?

The production cost of the original version of Pearl Harbor was more than 1 million, and the later publicity is said to have cost nearly 4000 million. However, the North American box office of the film was very strong. Other countries circled a sum of money back.

The most important thing is that the film's reputation is extremely poor, and it is considered to be the worst imitation of the Titanic.

But Laila will not underestimate her opponent because the original movie is too bad, and the appearance of Fay represents too many variables, and it is difficult to predict what changes will be caused by the abundant funds she brings.The only thing I can do is to do my best and face the challenge with all my strength!

Walking back to the side of the boat, I saw that the actors had already arrived on the boat.As soon as she was about to board the boat, Roy reached out to pull her.

Laila stretched his hand over, but he didn't expect his hand to shrink suddenly after touching her, almost causing her to stumble because of the wrong force.Fortunately, he caught her again immediately afterwards, so that she didn't fall into a big somersault in front of the crew.

"Is it fun?" She glanced at him, thinking he did it on purpose.

But at this time, Roy stared at his hand with a strange expression, as if he suddenly saw something growing on it.

"Ah? Oh, sorry, I didn't mean it just now." He woke up and quickly apologized, but the weirdness in his eyes still remained.

His expression was so strange that Laila couldn't help but stop: "What's wrong with your hand?"

"No, very good!" Roy quickly put down his hand and rubbed it on his clothes a few times.

Laila didn't think too much about it: "It's good that it's okay, you hurry up and find a makeup artist for makeup, we have a few night scenes to shoot later."

"understood."

Roy responded with a confused expression, turned and walked away.Lyra looked at his background and always felt that there was something wrong with him.But since he didn't want to say it, it's probably not a big deal.At worst, when he can't handle it, she can ask her again.

But what Laila didn't expect was that Roy's condition was so bad that there was basically no progress in the filming progress in the next two days.Even if she pulled him to her side and reprimanded him severely, it would only make his poor performance become average.

"Ca!" Laila finally couldn't help but yelled to stop. "Roy, get over here, and the others rest for half an hour!"

The crew packed up their things silently, and watched Roy walking towards the director tragically with pitiful eyes.Although they were not happy that the progress had been delayed all the time, but seeing Roy who was scolded by the boss so much that he couldn't lift his head, they felt that it was great that they were not the one being scolded.

"What's the matter with you?" Lila took Roy to the lounge, and slapped the table when there was no one around. "Do you know how much film you let me waste these two days?"

"Sorry, BOSS." Roy accepted the reprimand with his head downcast, unable to refute at all.He is well aware of his recent performance, and he knows how many lessons he deserves.

Seeing him drooping his head, Lila finally sighed, "What's the matter with you? Is there something wrong at home? Or are you feeling unwell?"
