Charlotte was likewise a loser.

Before the crossing, he lived without doing anything, and after the crossing, he still did nothing.

Before the crossing, he was pursuing ethereal spells, and after the crossing, the spells were no longer ethereal, but he was still pursuing, but he was never able to devote all his body and mind to it. He didn't have the courage to make a desperate gamble on spells, and he still had to live. At this point, he even felt that he was a little inferior to his predecessor-

The predecessor is a third-rate screenwriter and a second-rate artist, except for the first-class method of drugging a woman's wine, there is nothing in his life. But even so, there is one thing he admires Charlotte, and that is his love and devotion to movies. He can endure a low-quality life, can endure every day, and can endure giving up his dignity to cheat women out of money to be a little white face, just for his movie dream!

However, reality is not a novel, there is always justice in the world, and there is always a reward for paying, and the pain and sweat of the predecessor did not bear fruit. After Charlotte crossed over, he once sighed about it, however, when faced with an opportunity to direct a movie at this time, he suddenly found that he was actually moved!

Is this affected by the personality remnants of the ex?

Charlotte doesn't think so. Not to mention how careful he was when he used the "soul calling" to absorb his ex's memories before, the very normal feeling just now was enough to convince him that he didn't have a split personality.

So what's going on?

Charlotte felt like she was moved, like she burst into tears after watching a moving movie.

Just like when he was a child, he once read the story of Paul Kochagin and was moved by it. Although he didn't become steel in the end, and could only be said to be a piece of waste wood, he couldn't deny the initial touch, even if that touch seemed stupid to himself when he grew up. And in the same way, he can't deny that someone really became another piece of steel because of that touch.

Some people will find all kinds of dangerous occasions to die desperately, just to prove that they are still alive. And in the same way, finding a suitable stage, blooming life, and burning yourself is also a way to prove that you are alive.

"For the sake of my predecessor, and for myself—"

Charlotte raised her hand,

"Otherwise, I'll try!"

Westwood was desperate.

The director of his crew is missing! And the reason is said to be to go to the field......

Bitch！Son of bitch！！

The assistant director refused to take the guide tube because he lost his enterprising spirit after the divorce -

Then why don't you lose your heart with the living!!

Did the cinematographer refuse to direct because he couldn't stand the pressure, or because he felt he was cursed by James Cameron?

This special code is also called a reason!?damn glass heart!damn crow's mouth!damn Cameron!!

As for the screenwriters!?

This damn crew doesn't have a proper screenwriter, the script is the director, and the screenwriter is naturally concurrently with him!!!!!

He cursed frantically in his heart, but there was no trace of emotion on Westwood's face. This is not only the reserve of a producer, but also his professionalism and the city. In fact, he also knew that Old Gun and Addison Young refused to take the guide barrel, and their reasons may be true, but they are by no means the only ones. There is another reason that neither of them said, but everyone actually knows -

Being ordered to take over the guide shortly before the start of the film meant that not only did they have to straighten out the entire script and shooting plan in a very short time, but also limited by cost, it was difficult to make significant adjustments to the direction of their predecessors, especially for low-budget horror films like theirs.

The probability of failure in such a film is too high!

And in a real place like Hollywood, a new director without a background has and will only have one chance. Once you fail, it's hard to turn over. Even James Cameron, who has experienced the legend and grown from a truck driver to a great director, was able to turn over after "Piranha 2" and get the opportunity to direct "The Terminator", thanks to the great help of producer Jill Anne Hurd - who later became his second wife.

So, you see, if a newcomer with no background wants to turn over, in addition to his amazing talent, he must also have the potential to act as a little white face.

And the first two are obviously very self-aware, knowing that they are far from each other in terms of talent or face.

Alas, my last movie!

Westwood sighed silently in his heart, ready to give up until—

"Otherwise, I'll try!"

When he heard this, Mr. Producer's heart pounded, as if the door of heaven was opening in front of his eyes-

"Medicine, my medicine!"

A few similar sensations made Westwood nervous, and he quickly touched his chest to find that the first-aid medication was still in his chest, and he was relieved.

"It seems like it's just excitement......"

After calming down, Westwood turned his attention to the source of the sound - it was the crew's artist!

- yes, an artist can be a director, too! Didn't that damn Cameron do the art design for "Fight of the Century"?

"Mr. Booth, no, Charlotte, are you sure?"

"Of course!"

Charlotte nodded, but before he could continue, the old gun interrupted him very suddenly:

"Charlotte, do you know what you're talking about?"

The old gun looked very anxious, and as he spoke, he glared at Charlotte wildly.

"Of course I know!"

Charlotte waved at her old red-bearded friend,

"Of course I know how risky it is to take over the guide tube at this time. Even when Allen directed the film himself, because of the problems of funding and the strength of the crew, the possibility of failure is actually not small, and now that he is missing, it has become a rotten mess that cannot be rotten! I say that is fine, Mr. Westwood?"

The poor producer shrugged with a wry smile.

Of course, considering the super high failure rate, this opportunity is also a pitfall, because it is very likely that after this film, no investor will want to see me as a director. But it doesn't really matter anymore! You know, old gun? In the past few months, I've actually been thinking about the question, whether I'm suitable for the film industry!?"

"What?"

"You should know that my goal in this business is to become a director! Then again, damn it, in addition to those actors who want to be stars, how many people in the crew really don't want to be directors at all! The problem is that over the past few years, I have become more and more unsure whether I should continue to work hard in this direction! I think this is also a common problem for many people who have been in this industry for a while but have never been given a chance -- ideal, is he still there?"

As he spoke, he thumped his chest hard,

"Will this heart still beat violently in the face of ideals?"

- yes, is the original heartbeat still there?

Many of those present bowed their heads, but Charlotte continued:

"So, for me, this mess is an opportunity, not a chance to succeed, but a chance to see myself clearly - only a heart that is still beating can drive me to make the impossible possible and make this film a success. On the other hand, if I fail this time, then I can also think that I will no longer be moved by this ideal, of course, it may be that I have no talent, then I will leave the industry completely!"

"You ......"

Listening to Charlotte's ruinous declaration, the old gun couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. For a long time, he sighed,

"If you insist—"

"So, Mr. Westwood, what about your decision?"

Charlotte turned to producers.

"What else can I say?"

Producer Westwood spread his hands,

"Not to mention your impressive determination, the reality is that if no one else stands up here, you are my only choice! Of course, I can also choose to stop this project directly, but the problem is - just like you Charlotte, I am not reconciled!"

Westwood suddenly became agitated, and he walked around the office,

"I have some health problems, although I am not old, but this is probably my last movie! I have not made any impressive movies so far, I am not a gold medal producer, not even a dog tag! I have no extravagance for this last movie, I just hope that it can be released normally and not lose money. I'd rather make a raft for that bastard Allen for the sake of this seemingly low-level goal, and let him establish his authority on the crew by striking at me - I'm sure some of you have seen it - and yet, that bastard has failed my expectations! But even so, I want to gamble again!"

As he spoke, he walked up to Charlotte,

"My director, do you have any plan for the current situation?"

"Well...... this"

Although the situation on the scene can be said to have taken a turn for the worse in a matter of minutes, Charlotte seems to have some adaptation. Although what he said just now was full of passion and ideals, it can be regarded as a feeling, but he is not the original Charlotte after all, although the goal of taking the opportunity to figure out whether he is suitable for the film industry is true, but the feelings in his words are to a certain extent with the help of his ability to be a "master of deception". So, he didn't really get into the blood, but took advantage of the interval between his words to think of some methods-

"First of all, I want to compress the plot and characters of the script, and remove some scenes with difficult sets in the plot in order to save filming money and time, and in terms of characters, I don't think we need to do another audition for the heroine, just choose one of the remaining three main supporting actresses, anyway, as the heroine of a horror movie, good figure and good looks are more important than acting skills, and the appearance of these three is not bad!"

"But in this case, what about the original supporting actress role?"

It was the old gun who was questioned. Seeing that Charlotte was determined to take over the mess in his eyes, he simply changed his role and sang a double reed in order to make the rest of the crew subtly accept the change in Charlotte's status.

"Just cut it off!"

Charlotte also understood that the old gun was cooperating with him, and he said very simply,

"The original four main female characters are not necessary, just cut them into three!

Speaking of this, Charlotte paused, as if remembering something,

"Gentlemen, I've heard people say that as a boss, when you talk about your career with people, bad people talk about your feelings and ideals, and good people talk about money! I've been talking about being a bad guy for a long time, so now I'm going to be a good guy too—Mr. Westwood said before that as a reward for being an emergency director, I will get a share of the box office, of course, on the premise that the film is profitable. Although it is not expected to be much, I am not going to take this money, and I am going to divide this part as an incentive to everyone in order to increase the success rate of our film. Of course, I also said that if the movie fails, I will quit the business at all. So, as a director now, I'm actually in a situation where there's nothing to lose, and the rest of it, you know!"

Charlotte blinked, like a wolf sneering.
