Field had always thought it was a foolish idea for die-hard wizards to think about separating the wizarding world from the Muggle world, knowing that while magic could solve many problems, many problems could also be solved without magic. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The most intuitive is this year's Quidditch World Cup, and now there is still more than half a month before the start of the Quidditch World Cup final, but due to the fact that the Ministry of Magic hired a large number of Muggles this time, this preparation has basically been completed. In the original plan, if the wizard had been used entirely to prepare for the tournament, this year's finals would have been postponed until the end of the year.
Preparations for the Quidditch World Cup stadium, including the live broadcast on Magic Television, had been completed just after August, and everyone else was given a small break after the Ministry of Magic's Sports Division had left the necessary staff.
"Field, aren't you really going to the United States with me for a vacation? You know, I'm a hot director in Hollywood right now, and I can introduce you to a few beautiful women. "Uncle Nicholas is going back to the United States because he has an American girlfriend.
"It's still hot, and after the summer vacation, if your movie is released and hit the street at the box office, see if your little girlfriend kicks you back to France. Field said mockingly.
Uncle Nicholas directed and filmed an R-rated horror film last year, which is the regular route for European directors to enter Hollywood, with small investment, fixed audiences, and low risk, it is easy to appear to be small and big, once successful, then the road to Hollywood will be very easy to follow. It is also worth mentioning that Uncle Nicholas's little girlfriend is the heroine of this movie.
During the preparation for the live broadcast of the Quidditch World Cup, Field and Nicholas, the likable uncle, became friends who talked about everything, so it was natural to talk to him about his study life at Hogwarts and his friends.
During this time, Field wrote several letters to Rolf, but received no reply, and Field tried to call, but no one answered the phone. At first, Field also thought that the Scamanders should go on vacation in New Zealand, but then he was still a little unsure, so he called Grandma Nice in Los Angeles and asked him to help check on the situation. And just yesterday, Grandma Nice called back to say that it seemed that his friend Rolf had a strange disease that he had never seen before, and he had been in a coma for more than ten days and had been hospitalized in a magical hospital in the United States.
As Rolf's best friend, Field was so worried about this that he also came up with the idea of visiting the United States, and Uncle Nicholas volunteered to accompany him to the United States.
But Field's idea was stopped by Mr. Newt Scamander, who was aware of the situation. Since Rolf had not recovered from the examination for more than ten days, Mr. Scamander was going to take Rolf to visit some of his old friends who had gone into seclusion, and ask them to help them find a solution.
"I'm not going, I'm going to finish my novel during this break, and the publisher and Warner are still waiting!" Field, rejecting Uncle Nicholas's offer.
"Alright then, have a great holiday!"
After saying that, this guy left the court in style.
For the next few days, Field stayed at home, and he didn't lie to Uncle Nicholas, about the novel "Seven Seas Thieves", the publishing house and Warner were indeed very urgent, because in previous years, he had been publishing books at a rate of three books in two years. And because of the fact that Nanhai sent his brothers to Hogwarts for exchange last year, he didn't have time to write a book, which made the publishing house anxious, and it is said that many radical readers have already mailed the blades to the publishing house.
Field's Muggle assistant Alyssa called back from the United States and told Field:
"Seven Seas Thieves has now been released in six volumes, and the story of the first book has been made into a movie, which will premiere in Hollywood in mid-August, and it is said that the test screening in the United States has been very good. The script of the second volume has been completed, the preliminary preparations have been made, and some special effects have begun to be produced in the special effects company, just waiting for the first part to be released in the United States, after the actors are on vacation, Warner will start filming, and it is planned to be released in the summer next year. ”
"Warner's plan is to bring the entire Rogue of the Seven Seas franchise to the big screen at one per year, so they continue to see all the productions, and last year you didn't move for a year, did you contact you, and their people were driving me crazy. Alyssa on the phone complained.
"Ah, Ah, I'll write a book as soon as possible. Field said perfunctorily.
In fact, he also understands the other party's eagerness, since he spent a vacation in the United States last year, he has also systematically understood the production process of Hollywood movies. As a mature industrial film system, Hollywood production companies have quite strict shooting plans, and it generally takes about a year from project approval to film release, especially for a big production like "Seven Sea Thieves", it is not unusual to spend a year and a half. And according to the knowledge in Field's head, ten years later, such a big project will not be able to be made in two or three years.
"You have to hurry, Warner has signed long-term contracts with several leading actors in the movie, and the future filming plans have all been set, those child stars are growing up every day, if your book is not in a hurry, I'm afraid that when they are all disabled, it will have too much impact on your movie. Listening to Field's assurance, Alyssa's tone relaxed, and she made a joke at the right time.
"By the way, when Seven Seas was released in London, get me a few tickets, and I had to invite my friends to the cinema. As he hung up the phone, Field said to Alyssa.
"Don't worry, I'll have someone mail it to you. Someone on the other side seemed to be calling Elisa, "Okay, I've got to hang up, they're going to ask about the manuscript again." ”
After the call, Field's mood was much better, and although he was still worried about Rolf's strange illness, he was always convinced that he would get better soon, after all, Mr. Newt Scamander also said that Rolf's illness was not fatal.
"After all, no matter how bad it is, you can take Rolf back to England and let Dumbledore come to see it, or even go to Nicolamay. ”
Field, who had settled down, took a deep breath and lay down on the table, ready to write a few more chapters today while he was in good shape.
I don't know how to be good, the group watched helplessly as the sun set into the sea of fog, and the east followed with a strange gray shadow. A thick fog overflowed the shallows and rolled over their heads, enveloping them in an enclosed field topped by stone pillars.
They felt as if a trap was creeping in, but the sight wasn't enough to discourage them. They still remember the road they saw before, and they still know which direction to go. In fact, the place is starting to creep them out and don't want to stay a minute or second longer. With frozen fingers, everyone quickly packed their bags and prepared to leave. ”
