Chapter 17: Sign for sale
When she returned to school, Catherine decided to notify Lily of the matter.
After all, she wrote this script for Lily.
Such a script could be written by a few college students and filmed. There is no reason why they could not complete it. After all, Catherine's mental age is about the same as that of an adult.
"Lily, do you want to make a movie?"
This is Catherine's first sentence after meeting Lily.
"Make a movie? What?"
Catherine then gave a rough overview of the plot.
"I am conceiving the plot. At present, Ada has decided to act, and I want to go too. But the actor doesn't know who to call..."
is indeed a problem.
"You don't need a boy! I just need to come!"
Lily said with a smile.
"Look, the photographer is also the lead actor, isn't this interesting?"
"Uh…"
But it looks like that is a boy in the original book, right?
Do you want to modify it yourself?
Catherine thought for a while, but felt it didn't matter much.
Although the main plot may need to be modified slightly, it is not a big deal. After all, in this movie, the protagonist only plays the role of connecting the plot. Although the acting skills are useful and useful, it makes this film really popular. What got up was hype.
Of course, it’s not that acting is completely useless. In fact, it’s useless if the actors can’t bring out the horrible atmosphere.
"Although I prefer to take pictures, I don’t have any problems with the camera. You know, my father is a photographer. Maybe, I can also ask people from the photography agency to help. What do you think?"
Lily said excitedly.
Anyway, the plot is just an idea, and it hasn't officially started writing yet.
In fact, this incident did not cause much repercussions. There are a lot of people shooting student films. You know, this year, movies costing only a few thousand dollars have appeared, but the ones that can become famous are only about one ten thousandth. . More, it is a film that is shown in the school's video room for self-watching or as a material.
The time has entered December.
The manuscript of "Blair the Witch" is not finished yet.
After all, this is a script, not a novel. It needs to be cautious, and then cautious. The original plot has also been revised. In fact, Catherine herself has no psychological bottom.
And what is more important is not this, but the plan book of the paper book publishing house.
"Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" will be on sale on December 10th, and they strongly invited Catherine to sign on the spot.
This is probably also a means of propaganda. After all, Catherine is only a 12-year-old girl. Such a girl has written such a popular book. Even if people don't read this book, I am afraid they will be interested in this book, right?
Speaking of "Harry Potter", Catherine has also been revised, which is more in line with American tastes-after all, she has also been an American for 12 years, so she naturally knows what people like now. This combination of illusion and reality is not only loved by children, but also by adults.
just right, these days are approaching holiday.
The winter vacation in the United States is followed by Christmas and Spring Festival. Compared to the three-month summer vacation, their winter vacation can be said to be very short.
December 10, this day, finally came.
""Harry Potter" was originally written by Kay, oh my god...I didn't even ask her for an autograph!" Lily complained from the side.
"Maybe we should let her treat us to a good meal, or open a part?" Lisa smiled.
Everything was ready, but Catherine didn't expect her classmates to come here at this time.
What she didn't even expect was that they were all fans of Harry Potter.
Damn, when have I seen them read their books?
"At the time I thought it was just the same name, but I didn't expect it to be our Kate~"
European and American names are repeated a lot, and the basic surnames are less than in China. Although they also have many creative names, there are still more grandstandings in that situation.
Fortunately, maybe I think this day is more important to Catherine. They just smiled when they handed the book to Catherine, but didn't speak.
However, they didn't trouble Catherine, and other book fans couldn't help being curious.
"I didn't expect you to be so young...Oh, my grandson likes your book very much..." "Thank you."
This is an old woman who is touching her hand.
"Can you date me? Sister~" "No."
This is a kid who is about nine years old.
"What a beautiful girl... Oh, forgive me. Your book is so beautiful that I am completely immersed in it." "Sir, don't forget the real world."
This is a middle-aged man in his forties. He is probably a survivor of World War II. He is also a crappy wet man and an escapist.
In general, the signing event was considered a success. Although her hands felt sore, Catherine finally let out a long sigh of relief.
After all, even Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" has been criticized as "escape from reality", which caused huge controversy. It is only fifteen years since the end of World War II, and the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union is gradually escalating. No one knows whether World War III is likely to break out. But in the face of negative emotions about war, the mainstream view is still critical.
Even if it is criticized, the fashion trend will not change, but Catherine still hopes that she can make a good impression on the media. The media may not affect anything, UU reading www.uukanshu.com but they can be annoying.
After everything was over, Lily and the others gathered around.
Just at this time, Lily and the others noticed that maybe the script of "Blair the Witch" that Catherine had thought of seemed to be very good, but they didn't put their thoughts here at this time.
They are like discovering Columbus in the New World, playing with their classmates in the past six months with excitement, while Catherine’s parents drove away with interest—Catherine is only 12 years old after all. To attend such an event requires a guardian to be there. The law will be very cheating-anyway, her classmates are there, so I'm not afraid of problems.
"Oh my God, Kate, you actually wrote "Harry Potter"! Do you know what, I always want to know who the author is~"
Lily has a hardcover copy of 15 dollars a month, and a collector's copy of 50 dollars, which is full-color and contains countless illustrations.
Those illustrations were also painted by Catherine herself. Catherine had never learned to paint before. She learned digital painting directly, and even the online drafts were drawn using a computer. That was actually an adjustment after work. But at this time, she picked it up. Although it can't be said to be too good, it is considered to be an upper-middle level.
It's strange to say that since Catherine was born again, she found that she was learning everything quickly, and sometimes it was really convenient to come by hand.
However, she only drew illustrations for the first three books. As for the next four books, she has no energy at all.
"Maybe we should celebrate this Christmas~" Lisa smiled.
"That...may not work."
Catherine said suddenly.
"Christmas, my father is going to take us to Seattle...my mother always wanted to go there."
