Of course, no matter how lucrative the gaming industry will be in the future, for now, Ghost Party Studios is still a film and television company.

And Charlotte's main work is still focused on film and television.

At this time, it was already August 2001.

Although it can be regarded as to avoid the edge of "Pirates of the Caribbean", the release time of "Pearl Harbor" has been postponed to July and August.

But at this time, this war blockbuster, which Disney's Robert Iger had high hopes for, has also been released-

Just like Charlotte's memories in the original time and space, Michael Bay, who believes that "art is an explosion", still didn't shoot this big production well after all.

Although the 360-degree shot of the aerial bomb in the movie after leaving the plane is quite creative, the overall rhythm of the movie is completely unbalanced -

The first half of the movie is basically playing the love triangle of Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett and Kate Beckinsale, coupled with Michael Bay's penchant for slow-motion close-ups, which seems stinky and long.

- Michael Bay may be trying to show that he is not a director who only knows how to explode through the portrayal of this love triangle.

It's a pity that people are self-aware.

An exploding shell is an exploding shell, and "Pearl Harbor" is not "Battlestar", and Kate Beckinsale can't sing a song.

- The fusion of these two elements of love triangle and war is not so easy.

Anyway, the love triangle plot in the first half of the movie was criticized by almost all film critics as "dog blood", and the audience didn't buy it at all.

"If we watch a Michael Bay movie, it's an explosion! If we want to watch a romance movie, why don't we go to see a Julia Roberts movie?"

Many fans have issued such complaints that make Michael Bay, who is trying to transform, feel cold.

Of course, in the second half of the movie, when the war scenes are staged, Michael Bay's skills are still guaranteed.

It's just that war movies are not exactly the action movies that Michael Bay is good at after all, in addition to explosions and clever editing, narrative and iron man tenderness are also important.

And in this regard, Exploding Bay has never been very good at it.

"In short, the movie "Pearl Harbor" can only be said to be unsatisfactory!"

Robert Iger sighed at his henchman Philip Bierman,

"I originally expected that "Pirates of the Caribbean 1" and "Pearl Harbor" would end in one end and one end and make our summer schedule very dominant this year, but now it seems ......"

"If you're not lucky, Pearl Harbor can still make a little money!"

Philip Bierman shrugged,

"And, as the chairman of Disney Studios, you just took office last year, and by that time, the investment deal for Pearl Harbor had already been signed, and you can't blame the film for its failure. ”

"I understand this!"

Robert Iger waved his hand.

can climb to such a high position as the chairman of Disney Pictures, although Iger is not without responsibility, but the skill points of throwing the pot are also full.

And if it is reasonable, he really does not need to be responsible for the decisions of his predecessor.

Unfortunately, many times, many people are unreasonable.

- Like Iger's top boss, Disney's "tyrant" Michael Eisner.

Moreover, Robert Iger has not planned to take the credit for the box office success of "Pearl Harbor" before......

Unfortunately, this wish did not come true.

"With the overwhelming support for Pirates of the Caribbean, and now with the former being a box office hit, the failure of Pearl Harbor will not affect my status at Disney. ”

Robert Iger smiled bitterly,

"It's just that the failure of this film has interrupted my momentum in the board of directors - it seems that I am going to challenge Michael for the position, and I still need to wait for the right time. ”

"It's okay, time is on our side!"

Philip Bierman comforted his boss,

"Mr. Eisner is already very old, not to mention that in recent years, he has been too strong within the group and offended many people, and new opportunities will soon appear. ”

“...... Let's think about how to reduce the damage caused by Pearl Harbor first!"

Robert Iger was noncommittal to Philip Bierman's words, and he turned the conversation back to the actual work,

"Pearl Harbor" is different from "Pirates of the Caribbean", we at Disney Studios are more just investments, and we are not too involved, which makes our losses not too big, if we can effectively stop losses and pass on losses, maybe we can return to the cost or even make a small profit, but the premise is that nothing else can happen to affect the subsequent box office trend of the movie. ”

However, the problem is that there is always a blessing in this world, and there is no one thing in disguise.

It's August 2001 and 911 is coming......

As a traverser, Charlotte has naturally been wary of 911 for a long time.

As a person who has studied many historical mysteries in order to study spells, he knows very well that although this event seems abrupt, it is actually an inevitability of the development of the general trend of the world.

Like the wheels of history, those who block can only be crushed.

What's more, as a person who is essentially from the other side of the Pacific, he doesn't have too many ideas to block it.

- Even according to his predictions, the occurrence of 911 may further worsen the aura state of this world, making it more difficult to cast spells.

And, in order to cope with this situation, he had been preparing for a long time before.

Not to mention anything else, the existence of the main god space has already allowed him to gain the speed of exerting power, which has become extremely high.

- A further reduction in aura will not have a fatal effect on him.

However, according to the information that Charlotte researched in the original time and space, behind the 911 incident, there are too many hidden shady scenes and hidden secrets, and even if Charlotte has a spell protector, she is really unwilling to get involved.

After all, he is now extremely wealthy, has a successful career, has a beautiful wife, a lovely daughter, and can study the spells he is interested in, and he is not willing to die.

- You know, not to mention FedEx or anything, the United States does not ban guns.

Even if Charlotte knows how to spell, she can't turn on the protection every day.

If a bullet flies on the side of the road one day because of his involvement in 911, then he will lose a lot.

Therefore, Charlotte just tried her best to ensure that the people around her could avoid this incident, and by the way, the release of the company's movies was staggered from September.

However, although he didn't plan to do anything, he was worried that others would take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble-

After all, the overly mysterious Lord of the Abyss doesn't say it, and the Lord of Hell knows that he loves death just by hearing the name.

What's more, after Charlotte came to this world, she vaguely felt from time to time that there were mysterious black hands lurking around many Hollywood stars......

"I wonder how they'll react to 911?"

Charlotte was secretly ready to observe.
