Paris, France, inside a fine dining restaurant.

Alex looked up at the surroundings, and in the dim environment, the lights of each table were so dazzling, like a little starlight falling on the ground at night. Each table is an island, and the atmosphere is deliberately created for the people on this island to focus on the people around them, and there is something intangible that connects the people at the same table.

Soon, he focused his gaze on Brigitte. Today's Brigitte is not as trendy as the first meeting, a pure white shirt and dark skirt, and a few simple pieces of jewelry, which immediately set off her proud figure and innocent face.

Brigitte, who is simply dressed, has changed her mature and sexy image in the past, revealing her side like a girl next door.

What can be said is what a woman needs to feel about what she can become.

Even if one moment she is still a lewd slut, the next second she can be like a chaste saint, making men fascinated and crazy. Such women understand men's minds better than other women, they can dress themselves according to men's ideas, and the image they appear in front of people can change at any time.

When they first arrived, Nick was busy talking on the phone, and the place was quite fancy with a phone on every table. This makes it convenient for those who need it to be able to call or receive calls at any time while outside.

"That's what I said, I know that I'm going to hang up first." Nick said to the person on the other end of the phone, "I have an important matter here, I'll talk to you when I get back." ”

After all that is said. Alex and Morris also happened to stand in front of them, and the waiter whispered a few words before leaving, which was nothing more than some polite words in the etiquette of receiving guests.

"Hello, Brigitte and Nick, I'm sorry, we got stuck in a bit of a traffic jam when we arrived."

Morris opened his mouth to talk nonsense, they didn't have a traffic jam just now, in fact, they arrived at the hotel on time. It's just that he didn't expect Brigitte and Nick to arrive early, so he said this casually.

Alex on the side looked at Brigitte with a smile, and then followed Morris to face them. Pull a white cloth towel from the table. Spread it in front of yourself so that you don't get your clothes dirty when you eat.

"Ha Luha, it's okay, in order to wait for our heartthrob handsome guy Alex. My Brigitte can wait forever. ”

Hear Nick joke like that. Alex smiled at Brigitte. He didn't say anything, though.

The other party did not give Morris time to speak, and immediately continued: "When I met Brigitte, she was a little girl. I didn't expect it to grow up all of a sudden. Hey, time flies. ”

"Oh? Have you known Brigitte for a long time? ”

Morris chatted along with the other party's words, he heard that Nick and Brigitte are related, and he doesn't know if it's true.

"yes, speaking of which, I'm still Brigitte's cousin! When Brigitte wanted to make a movie, the family didn't allow it, so she ran out. Luckily she remembered my uncle, otherwise we wouldn't be sitting here. ”

Nick said, with a look of remembrance. After another contact, Alex finally felt that Nick was a little different from the others, that is, the tone and movements of his voice were a bit sissy.

"Uncle Nick! Don't say any more, people won't be interested in our past! ”

When Brigitte spoke, she still looked like a girl, and she couldn't tell that she had been married once, and she was divorced at the least. If she told others that she was still underage, no one would doubt it.

"No, I want to make it clear, so as not to misunderstand outsiders!" Nick didn't give up, and talked about the past.

It turns out that Nick and Waltin know each other, they are both in the film industry, they are also French, and of course they have a deeper relationship. According to his description, Huating is simply a strange uncle who cheats people into eating candy, and deceives Brigitte all over the place. At that time, Brigitte was still a minor, and she was already dazzled by Huating and vowed to marry Huating.

"Oh, you think Huating is a man? Bah, he's just a jealous guy who doesn't look down on beautiful girls. ”

"Alright, Uncle Nick, the more you talk, the more ...... you go"

Brigitte, whose face was flushed, hurriedly stopped Nick from continuing. She looked at Alex a little embarrassed, and said softly: "Don't listen to his nonsense, Huating is actually very good and takes care of me." ”

"Brigitte is the best actress I've ever met, there's no doubt about that." Nick boasted about Brigitte in front of everyone, saying, "Her on-screen acting is amazing, as if she was born to do the same." I'm not the only one who thinks so, but a lot of people think so. ”

Speaking of acting, Alex took the time to watch the movies made by Brigit, such as "God Created Women", "The Girl in the Bikini" and so on. In these movies, Brigitte's dress style is very bold, at least for people in this era, it is simply a movie that breaks through many taboos, and can have a great impact on conservative social concepts.

But Brigitte basically belongs to the role of a vase in it, acting skills or something, what men look at is not this, but look at the body appearance, as well as the clothes they wear and so on.

However, for this kind of fancy sedan chair carrying people, Alex and they can't jump out directly and say to Brigit: "Well, you still have some problems with your acting skills, such as this and that, if you solve it well, how good will your next movie be, etc." ”

In fact, the whole topic is under Nick's control, and soon they talk about the DreamWorks movie, and Brigit's recent situation and so on.

"Speaking of DreamWorks, I think there's a movie right now that is perfect for Brigitte, I wonder if you're interested in starring in it?"

Alex said seriously, his words made Morris beside him stunned for a moment, after all, now that DreamWorks' plans have been formulated, it is impossible for either the director or the actors to change. Unless a new movie is made, there really isn't a new place for Brigit. And this is still the heroine.

Most of DreamWorks' films are known for being well-made, and even the solo films that are given to directors are expected to be perfect. Being well-made means that the director and actors are demanding, and ordinary vase characters basically do not appear, let alone appear as heroines in DreamWorks films.

Brigitte to be the heroine? This blood cost is too big!

Morris thought to himself, "I let you go to the unspoken rules, but that's not how you do it." At most, take out a secondary supporting actress, and give more money. If she is asked to be the heroine, it doesn't matter if she wastes money on making movies, if she doesn't get it right, wouldn't it be a smashing of her own golden signboard? ”

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but lightly kick Alex a few times in the ground. But the other party has not responded. So he simply kicked it hard.

"Ouch!"

Nick suddenly screamed, much to everyone's surprise, wondering what had happened. Just as they focused their eyes on Nick's face, the other party already knew who had kicked them. I saw him wink at Morris.

"What's wrong?" Brigitte asked with concern.

"It's all right. A big mosquito just bit me. Just wait until you go back and wipe it with a potion! ”

Big mosquitoes?

Are there mosquitoes in such a place?

Everyone will be skeptical, but they don't know whether the truth is true or not. But soon Morris knew what was going on, because he was also "bitten". Nick kicked him lightly under the table, as if to hint at something.

As soon as he thought that he had mentioned the wrong person just now, and he had kicked Nick, he felt the chrysanthemum tighten, and hurriedly lowered his head to eat.

Alex glanced at them inexplicably, wondering what the hell Morris and Nick were up to, and continued: "Yes, this movie was also finalized not long ago. It's about an astronaut who has an accident in outer space and then goes to a strange planet. On that planet, he meets a beautiful heroine, and at the same time discovers that there are dangerous creatures on this planet, and in order to survive, they have to work hard together......"

"So, this is a science fiction movie? Cosmonaut! Oh my God, just thinking about this film makes people feel very interesting, it will definitely be exciting! ”

Before Nick could finish listening, he said out loud, looking like he was happy with the film. Not only him, but Brigitte and Morris were also attracted to the plot described by Alex.

What is the hottest topic of this era?

That's right, rockets, satellites and astronauts! The competition between the United States and the Soviet Union in the aerospace field has a huge impact not only in government departments, but also among ordinary people. Various science fiction themes revolve around space, and novels, comics, movies, etc. ushered in a blowout during this period, and a large number of cosmic stories have appeared.

"However, it must cost a lot of money to shoot such a movie!"

Brigitte asked curiously, not because she was worried about Alex's nonsense, but because she wanted to know how much this kind of movie costed. When I mention it to others in the future, I can also talk about how many movies I have invested in.

"Well, I guess I'm going to have to spend $5 million!"

Alex casually said a number, and he didn't know how much it would cost, but to be able to take out millions of dollars to make a movie at once was already a high investment.

$5 million!

Just to make a sci-fi movie!

She is still the heroine!

Brigitte was already very excited when she thought about this, if it weren't for the table separating her, maybe she would have pounced on Alex by now. The movies she shot before only invested hundreds of thousands of dollars at most, and basically none of them invested more than one million dollars.

Unexpectedly, Alex, who had only met once or twice, was so atmospheric that he threw out $5 million at once. If this movie is released successfully, not only will Brigitte's popularity rise a lot, but it may also be able to transform smoothly.

Nick was even more unbearable than Brigitte, and he screamed, "5 million? Are you serious? ”

Even Morris was shocked, he didn't know if Alex was a whim or a nonsense. If you really invest this $5 million, if you don't plan it well, you will have to waste if you can't make a profit.

"Is there a script, then?" Nick took the opportunity to ask, "Now that it's certain that Brigitte is going to star in this movie, I want to get the script as soon as possible." It's good for her to memorize more lines. ”

Speaking of reciting lines, Brigitte's face turned red unknowingly. Anyone who has filmed with her knows that getting Brigitte to memorize her lines is the most difficult thing. It's no wonder that she is, after all, after having beauty, others will only pay attention to her appearance. As for whether you can memorize the lines and how good your acting skills are, it's not a very important thing.

"Script?" Alex didn't hesitate, but quickly replied, "The script will be sent over tomorrow, please rest assured." We're all very productive, aren't we? Morris! ”

Morris immediately lied to Alex: "Of course, we came to Paris to find a suitable heroine." Of course, I brought the script or something. ”

Brigitte looked at them. Asked with great interest: "What about the male protagonist?" Who is the male lead! ”

"Uh, this ......"

Morris almost couldn't answer, but fortunately Alex helped him and said: "The actor has long been decided, of course, I will perform it myself." This is DreamWorks' biggest investment of the year, and I don't play anyone! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Alex plays the leading role. This is the first time he has starred in a movie. Well. Speaking of which. In recent years, many people have wanted to be able to see Alex on the silver screen. Presumably, once this news comes out, it will immediately attract the attention of many fans. ”

Morris spoke of this vividly, as if they really had a movie for Brigitte to play with Alex. But that's it. Even if there is no such movie, there will be one.

If Alex invested $5 million and asked Brigitte to play the heroine or something, some people are still suspicious. But when they heard that Alex was also going to play the leading role, they were all stunned, and they knew that Alex was not only famous in the film industry, but even many people who didn't watch movies knew that there was such a person.

Alex has often crossed over to make a lot of things in the past few years, music, novels, movies, television, comics, scientific and technological inventions, space rockets, etc., every time he enters a field, he can stir up the world. Generally speaking, as long as you see Alex in a certain industry, then everyone will be shocked by what Alex has done.

Now someone is telling them that Alex is returning to the film industry.

As soon as such news comes out, it will immediately make headlines on the front pages of various countries. For such a reaction, Brigitte is convinced, and even the real reaction will be much more powerful than they imagined.

"That's great!"

Brigitte couldn't hold back any longer, stood up and sat down next to Alex, hugged him tightly, and offered hot kisses again and again.

In such a high-class venue, such a move quickly attracted the attention of many people.

The waiter at the hotel had to come over and ask the guest what he needed, if he wanted something like that.

This caused Brigitte to immediately separate from Alex and go back to their respective places. After the end, they had to stop talking, finish their orders first, and then talk slowly as they ate.

Morris finally finished the meal, and after returning to his residence, he asked: "Our DreamWorks plan is very tight, but no one can shoot your science fiction film with an investment of up to 5 million." ”

Before Alex could speak, he immediately asked, "Where did you get the script for Brigitte tomorrow?" Could it be that you are rushing to write it all night now? ”

"Of course," Alex said with a shrug of his shoulders, "I'm already ready, you see!" Just ......"

"Just what?"

Morris immediately asked nervously, he was afraid that Alex would drop the chain at a critical moment.

"It's just that I don't know if Lu Dao should publish a novel first or make a movie first!" Alex shook his head and said with annoyance: "It's really hard to choose, a novel or a movie?" In that sense, after the novel is released, more people will watch the movie made. But time is so tight, I'm afraid it's too late! ”

Morris smiled: "Don't worry, you can get the script out first!" ”

That night, Alex sat down at the typewriter and crackled out a script. This script has a total of more than 100 pages, about 100,000 words, and it took Alex the whole night to get it right.

"Oops, hey! It made my hands sore! Alex couldn't help but complain when he handed the script to Morris.

The details of this script or something, he had already figured it out in his mind, but it took a lot of effort to type it out. At least these 100,000 words were typed out by him by hand, and even if he didn't have to think about it, it was quite tiring.

Morris really didn't expect Alex to solve the script problem in one night, and said in disbelief: "I thought you had already prepared the script, but I didn't expect it to be written and written." ”

He took the script and just flipped through a few pages, and was fascinated by the story on it! When he was about to finish watching it all, he looked up and said to Alex, "Who will be the director of this movie?" If there is no one, I will shoot! ”

Alex scratched his head and said, "I originally wanted to write, direct, and act by myself, since you ......"

Before Morris could finish speaking, he saw the script handed back: "Forget it, if you want to be your own director, I won't fight with you." After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but add: "But your script is really well written, and I don't know what's going on with Lu Dao every last moment!" ”

He shook his head again and again, and sighed: "The last scene is simply the finishing touch, it is really shocking!" ”

"Oh? Do you think this ending is good too? I was going to have a different ending! ”

"Of course, the protagonist originally thought he was on an alien planet, but he didn't expect to return to Earth, and humanity has perished. In this way, the initial sense of familiarity can be explained, it turns out that the earth has been destroyed by human wars, and only the remains of various civilizations remain. ”

Alex nodded and said, "Yes, before I saw the remains of the Statue of Liberty, the protagonist had always had hope, and when he saw it, he was completely desperate." ”

Morris suddenly remembered a question: "What are you going to call this movie?" ”

"Planet of the Apes! What do you think? ”

"Planet of the Apes? Well, Planet of the Apes! That's a good name, I like it! (To be continued......)
