After the Oscars, Roy continued to return to the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean", and Leila officially began preparations for "The Lord of the Rings".

Previously, she was only making small-scale preparations in-house, but as the preparations became more and more important, more and more people began to pay attention to her new film.

"The Lord of the Rings" is a very good work, but not everyone has seen it. After knowing that Leila was going to be filmed, many people wanted to get a sneak peek and went to the bookstore to buy the book first, and this craze even made the book hit the sales charts in just a few days.

This is not actually a good development for Lyra, because as Cooper said, "there are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand hearts", and the more people who read the book, the more they will have a fantasy of the Lord of the Rings world in their hearts first. When Leila's movie comes out in the future, they can't help but compare the scene in their hearts with the movie in comparison, once they don't meet their needs, then the film will be doomed.

So it's not a good thing to be too famous, and Layla has just swept Hollywood, and her fame is at its peak, so it's not surprising that fans who follow her would do such a thing.

"Have you already made a decision on where to choose a location for the film?" Louise knew she had been worrying about where the film would be filmed lately.

"Well, still thinking about it. Leila's eyes were closed, and there were two places lingering in her mind.

When it comes to location, the original Lord of the Rings chose New Zealand. But for Leila, when she thinks of the movie, what comes to mind is the scene from "Avatar".

New Zealand is very beautiful, but after watching "Avatar", what impressed me more is undoubtedly the mountains floating in the sky and all kinds of strange and dreamy creatures.

Leila can't forget the beauty there, if the future Avatar can choose there, then why can't she? If a place in The Lord of the Rings can be turned into that magical land in the East, wouldn't it be more perfect?

"Layla, if you're not chosen, why don't you use the two together?" Louise suggested, "There's a lot of setting in the movie, wouldn't it be nice to fit in what you want?"

It's a good idea, and Leila hasn't thought about it, but if you change the filming location from one country to two, it means that the expenses will also increase. This not only involves labor costs, but also various large and small relationships that need to be sorted out.

In a nutshell, she doesn't want to be too troublesome. But her perfectionism makes her want to put the most beautiful scenes in her memory into her own movies. wants to shoot beautifully without wanting too much trouble, and wants to save too much unnecessary expenses, which is why she has been struggling.

The problem was that she couldn't tell Louise that she was the one who was really embarrassed. No matter how much budget expenditure is spent, how high can it be in the places where the level of consumption in the East is? As for the trouble, it is even more impossible to say, and it is only a joke to say it.

"I'll think about it again. Layla made a headache and waved her hand to put the topic aside for the time being.

"Okay. Louise did not force her: "Regarding the selection of actors, many people have come to me through various channels, hoping to play a role in it." Free cameos are also available. "There are some very well-known people among these people, and the reason why they would rather not want to play a role in this movie is probably because they see that the future results of this film will be amazing.

In the past, Leila's movies would also have some people come to the door to recommend themselves, and Louise is no longer surprised. But this time, so many heavyweight actors also came over, which surprised her.

When she was with Reynolds in the Immortal Birds, she would never have imagined that there would be such a day in the future. Not only did he qualify for the Oscars, but he also got on that stage and won the most important award for the movie! Now there are so many star-level actors, don't rush to the door to play the role of their own company...... It's a dream that makes her feel like she's living in an unreal world every day.

Leila thought for a moment, "You can do it, if it suits the role, you can stay." But the best resources are still left to our company's 'own people'. She deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the last three words, just to remind her of an important point again, that is, "fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders".

If you don't remind you of this kind of thing, Louise won't forget it.

"I know what to do. She laughed, and suddenly remembered something: "Roy also wants to play a role in the movie." ”

"He called me. If there is a suitable one, notify him of the audition, everyone in our company is treated the same, and you can't get used to him. "Leila has always had fairness in mind.

She never had the idea that a certain role must be played by anyone, in her mind, there are a lot of people with acting skills and strength, if this doesn't work, just change it, as long as she is still the director of the movie, then the movie will eventually be filmed according to her ideas.

For example, if she is drawing, she can draw with a 2B pencil, and she can draw with a 2H pencil, and since she can draw, who cares what it is?

In short, the actor is not a very important thing, and Leila feels that as long as she controls the movie, she will not be crooked.

After Louise leaves, Leila begins to struggle with the location of the film set at the beginning. To go or not to go, it's a difficult option. But just when she couldn't make a decision, a phone call solved all her worries, and she began to wonder if she was really favored by God.

The call was made by Yao Yingxia, a female official from the East who had a good relationship with Leila before. This time I called, hoping to invite Leila, a Hollywood director who had just swept the Oscars, to go to the East. Whether it's a few lectures or an interview, it would be better if I could communicate with some domestic directors and cooperate by the way.

Leila was a little surprised that the other party would come to her so directly: "This is really an unexpected invitation. I do love the Orient very much, but recently I have a new movie in the pipeline, and I'm afraid I don't have time to go. She deliberately said it was regrettable. If you're too excited, you're too cheap, isn't it?
