Of course, whether to train or slay dragons, or become food for dragons, Charlotte has to do a lot of preparations.

At present, there are still three things that are more important to him——

First, the box office of "Drop Head".

After reaching 170 million U.S. dollars, the film's rate of reaping the box office has slowed down a lot.

However, due to the relatively weak films in the same period, "Dropped Head" still won the weekly box office championship.

This makes it one step closer to the 1995 North American box office championship, and also makes Charlotte even more popular as a director.

However, for Charlotte, who currently spends most of his energy either preparing new films or considering how to train his dragon, there is not much practical experience.

At most, it means finding that it is easier to make investment.

Yes, this is the second thing.

Preparing for a new movie——

"The Sixth Sense."

In fact, Charlotte first thought of making this movie because she accompanied Charlize to visit her mother in Malcolm Nursing Home.

In that place called a sanatorium, which is actually a mental hospital, the living people are alive in a muddle-headed manner, not even alive.

So, is the dead really dead?

At least, it has been determined that there is a "dragon" under the Malcolm Nursing Home, Charlotte is afraid to say this.

The movie "Sixth Sense" is just such a story in which the dead do not know that they are already dead.

"Actually, this movie can also be said to be dedicated to the me who used to be!"

Charlotte sighed in her heart.

As for the third thing, it is the establishment of the real special effects department of the Ghost Party Studio.

Although it is still a long time before J.K. Rowling completes "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", since the agreement has been signed, Charlotte does not intend to wait any longer.

He decided to start recruiting first.

After all, in the United States in 1995, programmers were still a high-tech type of work, far from being reduced to a bunch of coders like China later.

It takes a lot of effort to recruit more suitable people.

and--

"Are you sure it's okay to let me be the technical director of the special effects department of the Ghost Party Studio?"

After returning from near Malcolm Nursing Home, Alexis asked this question again.

——In order to cooperate with the newly acquired status, Miss Valkyrie has studied programming very much recently, but if the gun can be used in the field, everyone will not have to study hard.

Anyway, Alexis had no confidence at all.

"Don't worry, you can do it!"

Charlotte is very confident.

"The Valkyrie has a unique ability that allows you to easily overwhelm any programmer, even if you don't know how to program at all."

"There is such a thing?"

Alexis had a dazed expression about Charlotte’s secret-she had never heard of such a thing.

"Are there any strange spells?"

"That's it!"

Charlotte nodded.

"In Norse mythology, as the actual masters of the Hall of Valkyrie, Valkyries often have to train with those heroic spirits with superb martial arts. But the power of Valkyries is not necessarily higher than those of heroic spirits."

"So, they will absorb the power of the heroic spirit itself and use it to fight against the heroic spirit-it is almost the same as saying that it is "the way of the other, and the body of the other"!"

"so what?"

Alexis didn’t understand Charlotte’s words,

"How about even this?"

"This means that as long as you use this spell called "Grey Eyes", you can also borrow the knowledge of programmers themselves and communicate with them-there will never be questions that you can't answer, but they can answer."

"Because they are the ones who answer the question, right?"

Faced with Alexis’s understanding, Charlotte nodded.

"That's it."

"That's much easier."

Without saying anything, Alexis started to study how to use this spell called "Grey Eyes" directly under Charlotte's guidance.

——No way, it's dark near the ink, and after spending a long time with Charlotte, Alexis also understands the benefits of cheating.

As for Charlotte, after solving the problem with Alexis, he started something he had planned for a long time--

Refining people's leather books!

He had been thinking about this when he was still in London before.

After all, although most of his magical theories come from the hearts of the people, to refine some magic weapons and other things, they still need some so-called natural treasures.

However, there is almost no such thing in this era.

Fortunately, Charlotte found some alternatives.

——For example, the two trophies won at the Saturn Award.

When he won the Saturn Award, Charlotte discovered that this trophy represents his own honor, and to a certain extent, it is also a magic weapon that can gather mana for him.

So, can you use trophies to refine magical artifacts?

Charlotte decided to give it a try.

***********

Compared with the methodicality of the director, Judy Foster is not so stable as the producer of "Guillotine Valley".

On the one hand, the success of "Drop Head" has allowed her to obtain extremely high profits.

But on the other hand, she found that while seeing the benefits, investors also rushed forward like hungry wolves.

——This is also a natural thing.

Although the production and distribution of "Drop Head" is mainly handled by her "egg" company and Paramount, they will not be responsible for all the money based on the principle of risk diversification.

——Many of the investments in "Drop Head" come from institutions or individuals who like to invest in movies.

For them, the essential purpose of investing in movies is to make money.

Now that they are profitable, how can they not appear?

However, Judy didn't want to distribute the money to them immediately.

Without him, it's just the habit of Hollywood.

After all, as long as the money lay in one's own account for one day, it can bring an extra profit.

However, she also didn't want to learn from the notorious new line company in this respect——

The morality of Miss Shadow Queen hasn't fallen to such a low level.

Moreover, those investment institutions and individuals are not like old guns with no power and power-it is not easy to default on the money they owe these guys.

"At this time, I need a new project plan."

Judy said this to himself.

——This is also a common delinquency tactic in Hollywood.

——The money is still yours, it just needs to lie on my account and I will use it.

In essence, Hollywood production companies are no different from Wall Street investment banks.

Of course, if you want to use this kind of trick and get the recognition of many investors, you need a stable and reliable project with good profit prospects.

——PPT is the first productive force!

Fortunately, for Judy Foster, this is not a problem.

"The new work of the director of the 1995 North American box office champion film, this gimmick should be enough!"

Looking at the preparation plan for the "Sixth Sense" in his hand, Judy smiled at the corner of his mouth.

but--

"After getting good grades, Charlotte's ambitions have become bigger!"

Looking at the request made by Charlotte on the preparation plan, Judy couldn't help sighing—

This time, Charlotte asked to be the first producer in person, to obtain a complete producer and director, and monopoly status.

This is actually a good point. After all, after cooperating on the two films "Happy Death" and "Fatal Turn", Judy is already very convinced of Charlotte's grasp of the market.

Handing over the final editing rights is not a big issue.

What really upset Judy ~lightnovelpub.net~ is actually Charlotte's request to increase the share ratio.

"Fortunately, correspondingly, he also started investing in his own movies this time."

The young lady pondered for a while, and finally decided to agree to Charlotte's request.

After all, directors, like celebrities, are all rising.

Having a higher status will inevitably require higher power and treatment.

This is a very natural thing.

"What's more, he should have made a lot of money from "Drop Head", this time it is estimated that he will invest most of the new movie!"

Judy calculated it and thought,

"Then this also shows that he is very confident in the new movie! This is actually a good thing."

The young lady finally turned her attention to the script called "Sixth Sense"...
