Chapter 147: The Christmas Eve Booked

"No, no, no, the heroine must be blonde in order to embody the feeling of an angel. Since the script is full www.biquge.info of artistic symbols, how can we let go of such a crucial detail? โ€

At the DreamWorks headquarters in the afternoon, in an office in the West Hollywood district of Los Angeles, a young college student is sitting with several older men, discussing the filming of "Brain Cell Invasion".

"However, black hair is more mysterious."

Make-up artist Stephen, a tall, thin and artistic man, objected: "Dreams, David, it's one of the most mysterious places in the world, and people often dream at night, doesn't that match it with black?" โ€

"No, no, Stephen, you have to think so."

David waved his hand again and again: "Dream is just a medium, this movie is important to talk about the casual personality and various psychological characteristics, as well as artistic things, so the angel represented by blonde hair is more representative." Or think about it this way, many characters in the dream are going to wear very artistic clothes, at this time, do you say that black is more suitable for matching, or blonde hair is more flattering? โ€

David Fincher, a newcomer to the UCLA Film Society, was the honorary assistant director of "Ghost Record", and Alice's good assistant at the time. Since he was a person who had spent two years in Lucas's ILM, he was of course fundamentally different from the other students in the club.

Moreover, Alice is very aware of the potential of this young man, and knows what type of movies he is very good at, just imagine, wouldn't it be very appropriate for the person who will shoot "Fight Club", "Trembling Space" and "Seven Deadly Sins" to shoot the psychology of literary death "Invasion of Brain Cells"?

"Let's think about the beginning."

David patted the script on the table and said, "At the beginning, it is the plot of the heroine treating the little boy and sneaking into his dream. Alice wrote directly and clearly, the heroine was wearing a long colored dress and long blond hair, which was obviously portrayed as an angel. โ€

Stephen was still a little hesitant: "But ......"

David preemptively said: "It makes sense from the plot itself, the angel who saved the girl!" โ€

There is indeed some truth, and everyone present thought about it carefully, but they also felt that David was right.

Everyone at the scene, except for David, was a professional filmmaker hired by Lawrence to DreamWorks. Stephen, a makeup artist, with seven years of experience; lighting engineer Fat Roger, who participated in the production of "Raiders of the Lost Ark"; In addition, there is a purely auxiliary David, and another assistant director is also present.

In fact, when Mr. Lawrence, the chairman, informed him that David Fincher was going to direct the film, these veteran filmmakers were somewhat unimpressed. What's wrong with working in Industrial Light & Magic for two years, and what's wrong with being the assistant director of "Ghost Shadow", it doesn't mean that this kid can really direct such a movie.

However, it turns out that Alice's vision is still very good. Even if he is a twenty-three-year-old young man, David Fincher's level is not bad at all. After a period of preparation and running-in, these people who have been in the film and television industry for many years have to admit that the vision of the company's second boss is really good.

That's natural, after all, according to Alice's memory, David's first movie was shot in 85, although it was just a music documentary, but didn't it just have anything to do with literature and art? Anyway, "Invasion of Brain Cells" is not a masterpiece in the first place, and it is not bad to replace "Beating the Drum of Life" as his debut.

Just as David was about to say something to everyone again, it was also in this building that the chairman's office was bustling.

Alice leaned back against the window, with the beautiful Beverly Hills behind her, but unfortunately the Mediterranean climate in California was hateful, and no one could feel the atmosphere of heavy snow at this time, which made her very depressed.

"A twelve-foot tall Christmas tree is still made from a real tree, which is too extravagant! Our family has never been so exaggerated, and the most we can do is buy a six-foot-tall simulation model. โ€

"The house is big enough, of course it can be arranged like this."

Lawrence sat behind his desk and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, Alice, you are also a multi-millionaire now, don't you plan to move into a bigger and more luxurious house with your family?" Even if you think Beverley's land is too expensive, there are plenty of wealthy towns around Los Angeles that are full of places to build large real estate. โ€

Alice touched the root of her ear: "Not now, we are both in school." And Uncle Roger, my SOS group is right here. And if you change the community, won't it be separated from Winton Street, and my friends haven't gone to college yet, so it's not good for me to leave early. โ€

"Cut, don't do this."

On the reception sofa, Sissi lay there lazily, holding a piece of cashew nut in her mouth: "Anyway, our home is equal to your home, and you don't come to sleep in my bedroom, you have a ready-made big house to live in, of course you don't need to buy another one." How about Alice, I said yes? โ€

was really told the matter, Alice blushed and said viciously: "You care so much!" I just have to wait until I graduate from college to buy a big house, how can I get it? And as soon as I buy it, I'm going to buy a super big one, and I'm going to build a Yankee Stadium on an artificial island in Dubai!

Unfortunately, Alice's good wishes failed to get the audience's cooperation, and Sissi asked a little confused: "Dubai?" Artificial islands? Is there anything like that there? โ€

Lawrence was also a little confused: "I haven't heard of it, Dubai is not...... It's a coastal city that's right, but an artificial island? โ€

Well, this sentence is said ahead of its time, Dubai's artificial island is a miracle that only began to be built after the 21st century. Alice touched her nose, and just as she was about to say something more, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.

"Hello, this is DreamWorks and I'm Lawrence...... Oh, Akkamรกn? โ€

Mr. Lawrence, who had just answered the phone, paused: "Looking for Alice?" Oh...... Okay, okay, she's here, Alice, Maiya's dad is calling. โ€

Thanks to the formation of the great SOS group, the parents of the girls have also become friends, in addition to Ashley's parents who fly between Europe and the United States from time to time, history professor James, elite lawyer and accountant Sophie, fellow investment tycoon Lawrence, and Delta Special Forces elite soldier Akaman, have also become friends who talk on the phone from time to time.

Just like this, if Akaman hadn't said that he was looking for Alice, Mr. Lawrence would have chatted with him.

"Hey, Uncle Levi, what's wrong with me?"

The voice on the phone was soft: "Alice, the partner you want me to find has arrived, his name is Dutch, he participated in the Vietnam War, my comrade-in-arms in the Marine Corps, and now he is depressed." This kind of work couldn't be better left to him. โ€

Alice narrowed her eyes.

She didn't answer immediately, but said in a loud voice: "Uncle Roger, don't you still have a big villa on Long Island, why don't we spend Christmas with you this year?" โ€

Lawrence smiled, obviously thinking he had guessed the reason for Akaman's call: "Of course it's no problem, my house is bigger than this one in Los Angeles, even if you invite the people from the small half of Wenton Street!" โ€

Sissi was lying on the sofa: "Huh? Haven't lived in Los Angeles? Going to New York? Hey, going back again? โ€

Yes, it's going back again, that is, after the French immigration, Lawrence came to Los Angeles as a Wall Street investment tycoon. So Sissi's familiarity with New York is not necessarily worse than that of Los Angeles...... Without taking into account the age factor.

Alice nodded, then said into the phone, "Uncle Levier then...... Oh, you still have a friend? Ah~Comrade-in-arms~ Oh, Uncle Roger, Uncle Levier still has a comrade-in-arms to entertain, can we go together? โ€

Of course, Lawrence has the green light all the way, you know, for a group of financial people on Wall Street who stay up late at every turn, are polite and have average physique, โ™‚ โ™‚ strong and powerful soldiers, or macho โ™‚ men at the level of the Delta Special Forces and Marines, of course, they are people who want to meet!

So, Alice said into the phone, "So be it, Uncle Levi, we'll see you at Uncle Roger's villa on Long Island on Christmas Eve, eh! โ€

The phone is dead.

There are outsiders, and many things to say can't be said explicitly, but as long as you know that someone has been found, it's no problem.

The underworld is so lucrative and exciting, but Alice will never miss it. For three months, in addition to her daily life and normal work, she has been researching how to find a surrogate to create her first sky in the underworld.

Uncle Akman is of course the best choice for a middleman, but he was one of the last people who even participated in the Vietnam War, and his knowledge of Southeast Asia was amazing. Of course, it is not possible to let the father of his friend Maiya go on the adventure himself, but it could not be easier if he asked him to help find the right person.

Alice looked out the window, as the Christmas season approached, every household was preparing for Christmas Eve, and various shopping malls had launched Christmas promotions early. As for Black Friday, which is a big Christmas sale, hehe, the last week of November has passed early, reminiscing about the madness of this time of year...... That's really comparable to the big purchase before the Chinese New Year.

"Speaking of which, how was David's conversation?"

Alice then said: "I'm still waiting for this film to be released next spring, they have been arguing for half an hour about the hair color of a heroine, is it over?" โ€

Sissi was still lying on the sofa: "Hair color? Are you sure they've been struggling with this!? Oh my God, can it still work? โ€

Mr. Lawrence was also stunned: "How do you know?" โ€

Well, that's a meaningful question, but Alice can't answer it. (To be continued.) )
