Chapter 63: Superstars
"Time magazine called her a magical girl, maybe she really has magic power..."
Lily was reading the news about Catherine in the New York Times, and Catherine herself was taking a shower in the bathroom.
"Kate, did you really spend 20 million dollars on filming?"
"Of course!" Catherine's voice came from inside.
"It's unbelievable."
You need to know that this year, even for some so-called "blockbuster" films, it may be difficult to reach a box office of 20 million.
However, Catherine's reference is not the so-called blockbuster now. A real Hollywood blockbuster should be like Star Wars.
That is Catherine's pursuit.
Catherine threw herself on the bed exhausted.
She is already considering whether she can apply so that she does not have to stay in school. In the United States, many child stars come here in this way. They have tutors who will help them when they are filming, so as to avoid the trouble of class.
In that case, you only need to take the test. Even if you study, you only need a tutor.
Of course Catherine wants to drop out of school directly.
But... that is impossible.
Catherine is now in the compulsory education stage. If she confronts compulsory education in any form, her parents will suffer.
Catherine is even thinking about whether she should choose to skip a grade. As long as she can graduate early, it can save a lot of time.
After all, my foundation is there, and Catherine is not in vain for more than ten years. She thinks this idea of herself is very good.
"Worn out."
Catherine suddenly covered her head with the quilt.
"what's happenin?"
"Learning horsemanship is really a tossing thing."
Starting this year, Katherine’s physical education class requires learning to ride horses. Greer Girls’ High School has many unique things.
"You will get used to it."
Lily picked up the book on the bedside. She is now in high school and has more things to learn than before.
"Lily... I'm considering... if I won't come to school anymore. You know, I need to do a lot of things."
After thinking for a long time, Catherine still spoke.
"What?!" Lily was taken aback.
"Hey, I mean I need to do a lot of things, if I continue to stay here...probably there is no way. And I have to go to Mexico to film..."
Lily opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.
"What about then?"
"When the filming is over, I will probably go back to school... Well, I still need to talk to my parents about this matter..."
Saying goodbye to classmates and leaving school, Catherine came to New Mexico.
For Sean Connery, this reception can be said to be the most curious one in his ten-year filming career.
Director is a 14-year-old girl, and this little girl has also filmed a self-directed and self-acted drama that hit the box office of ten million dollars.
The investment in the film is an unprecedented 20 million U.S. dollars. He really doesn't know what kind of film needs so much money.
But the script of "Wasteland" is also very attractive to Sean Connery.
The script is very novel. Although it is post-apocalyptic, the plot is very reasonable. Savor carefully. This description may really be the future of mankind.
Although Sean Connery had seen photos or videos of Catherine a long time ago, this time in Mexico, it was the first time they met face to face.
"Hello, Mr. 007." Catherine greeted each other with a smile.
"Hello, genius Miss Magical Girl."
Connery also smiled.
007 is a script that Catherine really wants to "pirate", but no matter what, this thing has the original work, and the adaptation rights have long been bought by United American, so Catherine has no choice.
007 played by Sean Connery is the closest to the original in all series. Without Sean Connery, there would be no future 007 series.
Today's "sexiest man in the world" is now in his prime, handsome and extraordinary.
After meeting Catherine herself, Connery became more interested in the filming of this film. He always feels that this film will have surprises.
As for the other two protagonists, they are not as complicated as Connery. Freeman's brain is completely blank in this place, but he is worthy of being a superstar in the future, "Mr. God"-he has played God many times-quickly adjusted.
And Bruce Lee was curious about the shooting of American-style movies.
Catherine’s team numbered hundreds of people, and various props were moved around by the crew, which is not seen in Hong Kong.
"Okay, guys, I think you have already seen the script I gave you. Although the'refuge' is still being built, the location has been set up, so what we have to do now is to finish filming the location... "
Catherine prepared a lot of props.
In "Wasteland", many creatures have genetic mutations. There are huge moles and highly aggressive insects~www.wuxiaspot.com~ These all require careful configuration by the crew before they can watch them. It looks the same as it really is.
Catherine's idea is very simple.
Since the current movie special effects are unrealistic, just make the things in the movie look the same as the real thing, that's it!
In addition, there is also a monster called "Death Claw" inside. This monster that is probably able to compete with aliens is worn on humans. This kind of creature is actually played by humans.
In order to build the scene, Catherine collected a lot of scrap cars and some other buildings, except for a small town with apocalyptic style. At the same time, Catherine built an overpass that collapsed halfway at a high price.
At the end of the film, the protagonist is standing here and looking into the distance.
At any point, Catherine demanded to be "absolutely true."
At the same time, she also bought quite a few still cameras for the crew, all of which were prepared for shooting.
Bruce Lee's armor, Catherine also spent a big price.
He plays a member of the "Eastern Brotherhood of Steel" who advocates justice. He is a member of the elite squad "Paladin" inside.
In an operation, Bruce Lee was stunned by a heavy blow in the back of his head, and his companion thought he was dead. Then, when a wasteland scavenger tried to get down his equipment, he woke up.
Actually, Catherine originally wanted to prepare Bruce Lee a set of "Nano Armor" in "Crysis 2". But think about it, Catherine has another good idea, if she can, she even wants to shoot a "Crysis" out...

Uh, I recently found myself a little obsessed with corsets...
