Chatty Hollywood

After discussing with Charlotte, Jodie Foster, as the current main investor, finally agreed to introduce more investors.

Or producers who are bigger than her.

Because she understands that although they will share a small share of the profits they make from the "Sixth Sense" project, they can also help make the profits bigger.

At least, now, with the help of Kathleen Kennedy, Warner Bros. has the intention to enter the game.

In addition, due to the success of "Sleepy Hollow", Paramount is very interested in Charlotte's new movie, and Fox, which has always had a good relationship with the actress...

Judy suddenly discovered that before the filming of "The Sixth Sense" officially started, the number of predators who wanted to enter the show was already beyond her ability to deal with it.

"Now, you need to be able to play with five balls at the same time without falling to the ground!"

The movie queen asked herself whether she had the skills of the iron-blooded Prime Minister Bismarck, so it became a good choice to bring in those big-name producers to help.

"What a pity. In Charlotte's new movie, I can only be a participant and not the leader."

Judy wrinkled her nose in displeasure.

However, she actually knew that from the very beginning, she had never really taken the initiative in her cooperation with Charlotte.

Although Charlotte Booth cannot compare with her in terms of capital and connections for a while, she is not a normal person!

Thinking of her past experiences, the movie queen suddenly began to look forward to it

"I really want to see those old guys being fooled around by Charlotte!"

Charlotte didn't know Jodie Foster's unusual expectations for him.

After deciding to bring in more big-name producers to help, he was actually relieved.

Unlike movie queens who worry about being squeezed out by other producers and sharing profits, Charlotte has no worries in this regard.

Talent can be worthless in Hollywood, but it can also weigh more than a thousand pounds.

The key depends on what position you occupy.

Now,

He holds the key script and is the initiator of the new movie, which gives him an inherent advantage.

Although screenwriters are not among the most powerful positions in the film industry, once combined with positions such as director or producer, they will play a role far greater than 1+1.

Such a person is born to be the most suitable person to lead film production.

Even big-name directors like Spielberg don't dare to ensure that their grasp of the story is better than someone like this.

What's more, he also has a North American annual box office champion movie as a qualification.

Coupled with his Spectre studio, there is a complete behind-the-scenes team. As long as the predators who follow up follow the profit-seeking nature of capital, they will not easily take his idea.

Without him, the cost of replacing him would be too high.

Therefore, it won't be too much trouble for Charlotte to attract more big players.

Now, his most important job is still the preparatory work for the movie.

In fact, the more complete the preparations are, the more irreplaceable Charlotte's status will be.

"Although that's the case, isn't it a bit hasty to confirm the shooting location now?"

Lao Qiang asked.

As a partner who has always worked closely with Charlotte, Mr. Assistant Director does not think there is anything wrong with the rapid progress of the preparations.

It’s better than those projects that were stillborn!

What Lao Qiang is really worried about is the shooting location chosen by Charlotte.

"Is Malcolm Sanatorium really a suitable place?"

As a friend of Charlotte, Lao Qian also knew that Charlize’s mother lived there.

"If nothing else, wouldn't Sally mind?"

"Will not."

Charlotte is quite sure about this,

"I've explained it to her before."

"Yeah?"

Faced with Lao Qiang's brave gaze, Charlotte shrugged.

He did discuss with Charlize the plan to film "The Sixth Sense" at the Malcolm Sanatorium, but he did not give a specific explanation. He just wanted to take the opportunity to explore this mysterious place.

Charlize was okay with that.

After all, while not telling the girl anything about the "dragon", there was something odd about Charlotte's visit to the Malcom Sanitarium when she accompanied her to visit her mother.

It would be completely normal to take advantage of the opportunity of filming a movie to investigate.

Anyway, from the girl's point of view, her mother's soul has been fixed by Charlotte to Starscream next to her.

Then, the investigation of Malcolm Sanitarium should not cause too many problems.

Anyway, she didn't mind much.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Charlotte didn't lie at all this time.

He just hid a small part of the truth!

"But if Sally doesn't mind, Malcolm Sanitarium is indeed a nice place!"

Lao Qiang pondered.

He didn't know the twists and turns behind this, he just considered the problem purely from the perspective of the movie.

"By the way, in your script, the male protagonist's name is also Malcolm. Didn't you have this plan in advance?"

"You are right!"

Charlotte shrugged.

What should he do?

In fact, it is really just a coincidence that the name of the protagonist in "The Sixth Sense" overlaps with the name of Malcolm's sanatorium. But even if it was a coincidence, no one would believe it!

Then just make the mistake right!

What's more, Charlotte felt that maybe this could really be a weapon to break the situation.

Yes, he chose to film his new movie The Sixth Sense at the Malcom Sanitarium for more than just exploration.

In fact, after investigation, he has discovered that the problem with Malcolm Sanatorium is indeed not just as simple as "dragon"

First, he went to see Charlize's mother privately again in the name of a visit.

Of course, visits are just an excuse. The real purpose is to conduct an investigation.

He discovered that Charlize's mother was not the only patient in the Malcom Sanatorium who had symptoms of lunacy.

And Charlotte didn't find those scattered souls nearby.

This is strange

"Is someone using some evil method to deliberately create soul-leaving syndrome? Or...is it related to dragons?"

Charlotte couldn't guess why.

At the same time, he also hired a private detective to investigate the history of Malcolm Sanatorium, only to discover that it was a mental hospital with a long history.

Malcolm Sanitarium was founded in 1936 as a hospital mainly for the treatment of mental illness.

The founder was Malcolm Heard, a famous psychiatric surgeon at that time.

He specializes in lobotomies and even participated in the operation on the famous Hollywood actress Frances Farmer.

Although by the 1970s, research showed that lobotomy was not a good treatment and could even cause dementia.

But back then, it was a very popular treatment method.

At least, for a long time, this was how Malcolm Sanitarium treated some mentally ill patients who were considered "hopeless" at the time.

Of course, as the procedure was replaced by newer technology, Malcolm Sanitarium followed suit and abandoned the technology.

But this dark history cannot be buried.

In Charlotte's opinion, the dementia caused by lobotomy really looks like the symptoms of Lean Soul Syndrome.

"It can't be that Dr. Malcolm turned into a ghost back then and was still "operating" on all the patients he felt needed treatment, so that caused a large number of soul-leaking syndromes, right?"

Charlotte made wild guesses. lt;/pgt;
