Chaplin's words were completely thundered.

"City Light", the name of this movie is like a bombshell that bombed me with a crooked mouth and eyes. I looked at Chaplin, opened my mouth, and couldn't say a word.

Anyone who is familiar with Chaplin probably knows that in history, Chaplin made his fortune in 1914 until 1922. During these eight years, the reason why Chaplin became the most famous actor in Hollywood was his "Charlotte" series. The dozens of movies included in this series were Chaplin's main work in these eight years and also focused most of his energy. Since 1923, Chaplin had a movie almost every year, and a movie in the next few years, entering the maturity period. This symbol is

It is one of his representative works in 1925. It is this movie that has enabled him to become a true master of performance from a famous comedy actor. From "Circus" in 1928 to "City Light" in 1931, "Modern Times" in 1936, "The Great Dictator" in 1940 and "Mr. Verdu" in 1952, this period was the peak of Chaplin, and these movies are undoubtedly the most important and glorious representative works in Chaplin's life.

Among them, the movie "City Light" is of great significance. Basically, from this movie, Chaplin began to truly embark on the path of a master, and incorporated unprecedented heaviness and humanistic care into the movie.

What I have always kept in my mind about Chaplin’s movies is the two movies "Gold Rush" and "Circus". In addition, it is his "Charlotte" series of movies. In my mind, Chaplin still has a long way to go before a true master of art and a mature master of art with outstanding achievements.

At first he told me now that he was going to film "City Light", how could I not be surprised?

Because this means that Chaplin will go to the peak from now on.

I don't want Chaplin to usher in his glorious moment, nor to be afraid of panic. In fact, from my personal point of view, I am very welcome and looking forward to this. But Chaplin is currently the production director of Thunderbolt Hua Film Company, which means that his every move will inevitably have a huge impact on Thunderbolt Hua Film Company, which will make the situation in Hollywood more complicated than ever before.

Now after a series of things, Leidianhua Film Company has been suppressed so much that it cannot raise its head. During the period when Rockefeller was calm, the development prospects of major Hollywood film companies are very good. If Chaplin's small universe explodes, it will obviously make Leidianhua Film Company rekindle.

"Andre, are you okay?" Chaplin was stunned when he saw me, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face. He might not understand why I heard the name of his movie.

"Nothing. Nothing. Congratulations, I finally can make a movie again." I smiled.

Chaplin nodded, and his signature "humble" smile appeared on his face: "Andre. Thank you for this. You don't know. If you hadn't helped me find a place to stay in the film school, I might have really wanted to go back to England. If that were the case, there would be no such good thing as today. However, it's gold, it always shines. I, Charlie Chaplin, are not ordinary people either."

When Chaplin said this, Dunar, who was standing next to me, suddenly showed an expression of vomiting on his face.

"Mr. Chaplin, I wonder how your film is being prepared? When will it start filming?" I asked.

This made Chaplin ask, grinning, and his expression on his face quickly turned cloudy.

Judging from his appearance, this movie is probably not going very smoothly now.

"It's hard. It's hard." Chaplin said something beyond my expectations.

Chaplin is now the production director of Leidianhua Film Company, with a status of less than one person. If a new director like Rubin Marmolian may encounter some setbacks when applying for a movie, I believe it. I don’t believe it if Chaplin was having difficulty making a movie at this time, and I won’t believe it.

"Mr. Chaplin, I don't believe you. I don't believe you at all. You are the director of Leidianhua Film Company now." I smiled.

Chaplin waved his hand and said to me sincerely: "Andre, don't just call Mr. Chaplin, just call me Charlie. Call me Mr. Chaplin, you're a little disagreeing."

This guy is almost his strength.

"Andre, you're right. If I want to invest in this movie now, it will be very easy. But the main difficulty lies with me." Chaplin shook his head and sighed.

"In your own opinion? What does it mean?" I was very interested in Chaplin's statement because his expression told me that he seemed to value his new film very much.

"It's Andre. The movie "City Light" was created by me during this period of time. I attach great importance to this movie. Now is a critical period for me to turn defeat into victory. I must return to the ranks of Hollywood's first-line directors. Therefore, before the script reaches the perfect standard, I will not start filming easily. If I don't shoot, I will definitely succeed in filming." Chaplin said firmly and waved his hand vigorously.

After dealing with him so much, I have never seen him take such serious moments.

"It's good, so strive for excellence. If Hollywood filmmakers are strict with their own movies like you, then the future of Hollywood will be brighter." I casually said. "Well, Andre, you are a master, can you give me some advice?" Chaplin took advantage of the situation and quickly took out a stack of paper from the bag he carried.

I hesitated for a while and took it over, and realized that this was the script of "City Light".

Looking at the script in front of me, I really couldn't reflect it.

You know, in Hollywood, the person who keeps his script the most strictly is Chaplin.

Every time before the filming starts, it is impossible for someone to see his script, and the media will not be able to get any news about the plot of his movie. His purpose is very simple, which is to prevent his creativity from leaking secrets, and someone will take the lead in secret filming.

But now, this guy actually put the script of the movie he values ​​most in my hands. What did I think?

Chaplin has become generous? Chaplin trusts me very much? Is Chaplin really helpless in this script so he risked being photographed?

All these thoughts came to my mind.

I don't believe that Chaplin's personality has changed. Although he had experienced ups and downs before, his nature is easy to change and his nature is difficult to change. I don't believe that Chaplin completely trusts me. Although his relationship with me is much better now, he will never trust anyone.

The only explanation is that he really has no choice but to do with his movie. He needs someone to help him, after all, this movie is his chance to turn things around. In Hollywood, there are not many people with this ability, and very few people who can reassure him.

Compared to others, even though DreamWorks is a mortal enemy of Thunder and Lightning. Although Rockefeller and I are incompatible, Chaplin still believes in my character. He believes that I will not do anything to plagiarize his script.

In fact, I really can't do such a thing, and Chaplin's movies are not the same as mine. Maybe Chaplin thought of this, so he would choose me.

Since you have found the right person, there is only one question left: Will this person help him modify the script?

If someone is pulled over in Hollywood and ask him if Chaplin asked Andre Corleon to modify the script for him, would the latter agree? I think ninety-nine out of a hundred people would answer:

But there is one person who will nod. This person is Chaplin.

Although I had a holiday with Chaplin. Although DreamWorks and Thunderbolt are mortal enemies, Chaplin knows my nature very well. No matter what holidays there are in other aspects, as long as they fall into the movie, I won’t care much about many things.

Chaplin and I have been entangled with this for so long. He knows this more than anyone else.

So he came to me with his script, full of confidence.

This is his shrewdness. And when I face this script, I really can't refuse.

First, Chaplin has acted so openly. If I refuse, it would be too unsavory. Second, I have always put the development of Hollywood movies on my lips. If I refuse Chaplin, what will the people think when Chaplin goes out? Most importantly, I am the fundamental reason why I cannot refuse to agree. It is that Chaplin is too tempting. As a classic in the history of film, I cannot ruin it. I even hope that it can be filmed better than Chaplin himself. After all, no matter what the Chaplin people are like, this movie is immortal.

"Okay, then I'll show you." I smiled and flipped the script in my hand.

Cough cough. When Dunar saw me start to read Chaplin's script, he made a cough. This guy was obviously reminding me not to help Chaplin.

I took his reminder as if I didn't hear it, lowered my head, and then the dim light of a lamp in the corner of the cinema began to carefully read Chaplin's script.

In Hollywood, if you ask who usually has the shortest script, Chaplin must be ranked first. Many of this guy's previous movies, such as the Charlotte series that was filmed at the time, had no scripts at all, and Chaplin played on the spot when it was started. Chaplin has this ability, and his performance is indeed full of creativity. Whether this method is good or bad is a question of different opinions, but Chaplin has always liked this way of working. Moreover, this also makes others unable to imitate his movies.

However, later, Chaplin began to change this approach little by little, and he also started writing scripts. Although in the eyes of many people, this means that he has embarked on the path of standardization, it is probably not many people who can accept the things that Chaplin wrote are scripts, because Chaplin's scripts usually only have a few pages, which is like a short novel.

For a long time, Chaplin's scripts have been like this. They have basically formed management, so in the screenwriter textbooks used by the screenwriter class of the Corleon Film Academy, there are basically no scripts for Chaplin's movies. It's not that he doesn't want to choose, but that he can't choose them. Using his scripts to teach students, if students take out such scripts after graduation from the film school, they will definitely not find a job in Hollywood.

But the script in my hand, "City Light", changed Chaplin's previous two or three pages of paper, had a thick dozen, at least one hundred pages, which was considered to break Chaplin's own record.

I won’t talk about anything else. I think from the next semester, the screenwriter textbooks of the Corleon Film Academy’s screenwriter class can at least be justified in the Chaplindi film scripts.

In later generations, I have watched Chaplin's "City Light" many times and I like it very much, so I remember the specific content of this movie very clearly. So for me, it is actually very simple to give this movie a modification. It is just to select the different parts of the script and the movie seen in later generations.

But when I finished reading the entire script, I couldn't help but frown.

Historically, Chaplin's "City Light" tells a touching story: Charlotte fell in love with a blind girl selling flowers, but the blind girl mistakenly thought he was a millionaire. In order to save money for the flower girl to cure her illness, Charlotte suffered a lot and got some money. Only after he cured her eyes, she realized that her benefactor was a beggar-like poor man. The movie rendered the place, which is a warm true love, which is an important reason why it became a classic. But the script in my hand tells the story of the homeless Charlotte fell in love with a flower girl with normal eyesight, but realized that she could not be happy for the flower girl, Charlotte finally helped the flower girl find a wishful husband and achieved her happiness through various efforts, but left alone.

Such a plot greatly reduces the expression of the film. No wonder Chaplin is dissatisfied with this.

At the same time, I basically understood why Chaplin wrote this script.

1929. For Chaplin, it can be said that he was a year of frustrated career and a frustrated love. Not only was he blackened by Leidianhua Film Company, but he also became a bachelor. Under the huge pressure of public opinion, in people's saliva and rolling eyes, Chaplin yearned for warmth and true love more than ever before.

He incorporated this desire into "City Light". It can be said that in Chaplin's previous movies, there were many love scenes, but the only movie that completely expresses love and integrates his true feelings is "City Light".

This can also explain an important reason why Chaplin's attitude towards this movie is so serious.

"Charlie, there is really something wrong with your movie." I knocked on the script.

"You say, you say." Chaplin looked at me expectantly.

"First of all, the plot of this movie is not good." I squeezed my eyes.

"I think so too!" Chaplin patted his head hard and said to me: "This is exactly what I feel. The plot of the whole script is not full and the meaning is not discovered to the extreme."

"I think it can be changed like this. You changed the heroine to a blind girl selling flowers. Charlotte fell in love with her, but the blind girl mistakenly thought that Charlotte was a rich man. Charlotte went through a lot of hardships to cure the blind girl. The blind girl also discovered that Charlotte was just a poor beggar." I shrugged.

This time, it was Chaplin's turn to be stunned.

"Andre, you, you are simply God! Why didn't I expect it!" Chaplin's muscles trembled, and he quickly took out a pen and wrote it on the script.

"Also, your ending must also be changed. The original ending: Charlotte led to the marriage of the flower seller, but left alone. This ending is almost exactly the same as your "Circus", which is not good. The audience is not satisfied. You should do this: After raising money to heal the blind girl, Charlotte went to her flower shop to help customers choose flowers, and smiled so brightly. He felt relieved, then picked up a withered flower on the ground, put it in his pocket, and prepared to leave. At this time, the flower seller came over, she greeted Charlotte, and then recognized him from his voice. The ending ended when the two people gathered at the door of the flower shop, so that the audience could have enough room for imagination, so that the whole movie was still unsatisfied, and it also came to an end perfectly." I said all my opinions.

Chaplin nodded quickly while recording.

"Andre, you are so great! With this change, the whole movie immediately improved several levels! OK! That's good!" Chaplin no longer knew what to say.

I stood beside me, just laughing.

Who would have thought that Chaplin's "City Light" was the idea I gave.

Chaplin and I whispered in front of the cinema for a long time, and they made "City Light".

Chaplin was very satisfied, this time he was finally able to satisfy himself.

Watching Chaplin's energetic back walking into the cinema, Dunar poked me: "Boss, I really don't know what you think. Chaplin had a holiday with you, and now he is the production director of Leidianhua Film Company. If you do this, isn't it going to help us again?!"

"Of course I know this. But what I do, maybe I can make Lei Dinghua fucked." A wicked smile appeared on my face.

"Let Lei Dianhua make a fuss? Boss, stop kidding. It would be strange if I see Lei Dianhua being unhappy this time. With such a guide, Chaplin's movie can earn at least several times the box office. Moreover, this "City Light" will definitely make a big splash, and maybe it can even reach the Harvey Award next year. Such a thing is a dream thing for Lei Dianhua Film Company. How can it be a fuss?" Dunar looked at me and shook his head repeatedly. This guy seemed to believe me at all.

"It seems you haven't figured out Lei Dianhua thoroughly. Now the reason why Carey Rockefeller handed over the power of the production director to Chaplin was a helpless choice because at this time, no one except Chaplin could take on the main role of Lei Dianhua Film Company. But don't forget that Alfred Hitchcock will definitely not be able to withdraw from the senior management of Lei Dianhua Film Company. His calmness now means that he will have huge actions." I began to tell Dunar what he thought.

Dunar nodded and agreed to what I said.

"But what does this have to do with the trouble of Leidianhua Film Company?" Dunar still didn't understand.

I smiled and said, "Raidhua is now like a shaky house. Chaplin and Alfred Hitchcock are like opponents fighting in the room. If one person is too strong and one person is too weak, then the war will soon stop, and the damage to the house will be very limited. But if these two opponents have similar time, the battle time and destructive power will be much greater. Wouldn't it be a mess when you say that Leidhua Film Company is going to be a mess?"

Dunar made a sudden realization: "Boss, I understand. The reason why you guided Chaplin is to use the success of "City Light" to raise Chaplin's worth too much, and then let him and Alfred Hitchcock survive for a long time."

"It's basically the reason." I smiled, walked towards Dunarnunu, and then walked into the cinema.

When we walked into the cinema, the guests inside had been waiting there. When we saw us coming in, everyone applauded.

At about eight o'clock, Grant delivered a passionate speech on the stage, and then suggested that we all watch a minute of silence for canned food. After that, Dunar walked to the podium and spoke in a short speech, and then the movie officially began.

At the beginning of the movie, everyone was shocked.
To be continued...
