Screenwriter Mystery

"I hope I didn't disturb you."

He came over with a wine glass and showed a sunny smile to Zhao Yuan.

Tom Cruise looked at the back of Ron Mayer leaving and said with a smile.

Taking his eyes away from the vice president of Universal, Zhao Yuan turned to look at Tom Cruise beside him.

Speaking of which, Tom Cruise will come to the housewarming party this time, and even Zhao Yuan himself was a little surprised.

After all, the relationship between him and this person is not deep, and the only intersection that can be called an intersection is only at the Oscar ceremony not long ago.

Therefore, Tom Cruise is willing to come to the party, obviously there are other purposes.

Making eye contact with Zhao Yuan, Tom Cruise still had the smile of his own logo on his face: "Perhaps, you have heard a lot of rumors about me and Scientology in Hollywood, but about this, Director Zhao You don't need to worry too much, because I'm not here to convince you to join Scientology."

Tom Cruise obviously knew the rumors about him, and he mentioned it in a more self-deprecating way to ease the awkward atmosphere in front of him.

A person who can become a superstar in Hollywood is obviously not an idiot.

Especially a figure like Tom Cruise, who has been popular for decades, if he had no brains, he would have been swallowed up by the huge Hollywood Vanity Fair, and he would not be here like now. There was a lot of confusion in the circle.

In fact, the relationship between Tom Cruise and Scientology is not as mysterious as the outside world.

Simply put, the relationship between the two is more like a mutually beneficial existence.

Scientology needs his fame to start the church to gain more faith and capital, while Tom Cruise uses the resources provided by Scientology to protect his acting career.

In the United States, an open 'economic for-profit organization' cannot be without the support of capital politics, and all of this is exactly what Tom Cruise needs, not to mention, Scientology also has many loyal believers in Hollywood. Young directors and stars also believe in it, but Tom Cruise is the most conspicuous of them.

As Tom Cruise said, the purpose of his coming to Zhao Yuan is of course not to recruit followers for Scientology.

There are not many celebrities in Hollywood who believe in Scientology, but there are definitely not many.

The purpose of Tom Cruise coming to Zhao Yuan is actually to invite the director for his own United Artists.

In addition to being a Hollywood superstar, in fact Tom Cruise has also invested considerable energy in the producer,

In 2006, Tom Cruise and his partners bought United Artists from MGM. Since then, I have been trying to develop films independently.

It's just that in Hollywood right now, there are many giants.

They might welcome Tom Cruise as a Hollywood superstar, but not United Artists.

Even the big director Spielberg's DreamWorks, under the strangulation of major film companies, ended in tragedy.

Hollywood movie giants may compete with each other, but in the face of those movie production companies that want to emerge, they also tacitly take a stance of suppression.

I simply talked to Tom Cruise for a few words, expressing that he does not currently have the idea of ​​joining United Artists.

Tom Cruise did not appear too unhappy, or for him, Zhao Yuan was not the first director who refused to be invited after the acquisition of Lianmei.

With a smile, he left a sentence that reserved the opportunity for cooperation, and Tom Cruise walked towards the guests in the party with the empty wine glass in his hand.

And the direction he was heading was exactly where Wen Ziren was.

...

Day two of the Beverly Hills mansion.

The atmosphere of the party carnival gradually dissipated, leaving only a house full of garbage.

However, as a well-known wealthy area, Beverly Hills has a complete housekeeping system.

There is no need for Zhao Yuan to do it, just a phone call, and a special housekeeping staff will come to clean it up.

By the time Zhao Yuan returned with the [Voodoo Doll] in the afternoon, the house had been completely renovated, and there was no trace of the party left last night.

For the next few days, I fully enjoyed the "degenerate" life of capitalist society.

Only then did Zhao Yuan remember his other identity, and he took out [Clockwork] and randomly selected a room in the mansion, and entered the 'Clockwork Space'.

With the existence of the "clockwork" space, he basically no longer has to worry about being disturbed when he is writing the script.

In this room of ever-turning gears and clockwork, a new script begins.

...

Script 13: "Suppressing Evil"

Plot synopsis: The events of the Haitian Voodoo Festival, though ultimately ended with the success of the BSI squad.

However, all of this is just the tip of the iceberg. The power of darkness has never gone away. On the contrary, it has reached the edge of its rise. Everything is just delaying its pace, but cannot completely organize its rise.

Thailand, Bangkok.

The 'Chinatown' in the western part of the city is one of the most prosperous business districts in the city. Its scale and prosperousness ranks among the top Chinatowns in Southeast Asia. This veritable "China Town" with Chinese style is about 2 kilometers long. It stands in the west of Taijing City and is connected by many streets and alleys. It is one of the neighborhoods of old Bangkok, nearly 200 years old. Most of the houses here are relatively old, but the business is extremely prosperous, and the operators are almost all Chinese and overseas Chinese.

It is said that many successful Chinese have moved out of here, and many people have entered the mainstream society in Thailand.

Taoist Lin Jiuying came to Thailand's Chinatown after receiving news that she hadn't seen her friend for decades~www.wuxiaspot.com~.

However, what greeted him was...

...

Thailand, Bangkok.

It was the location that Zhao Yuan used the [Random Evolution Land Card] to randomly come to before. Since this time, he has been thinking about how to integrate this location into the new script.

Occasionally, when I flipped through the system inventory, I discovered that there were many character cards that I had left behind.

For example, the character card of [Lin Jiuying] has not been used since it was drawn.

Speaking of which, Zhao Yuan cannot be blamed for this either.

After all, the script of "London Zombies" has a lot of experimental meaning from the beginning of its creation. At that time, Zhao Yuan deliberately made up such a script with a mix of styles in order to test the [world evolution rate]. Among them, due to the problem of the evolution location, [Lin Jiuying] has never had the opportunity to appear. It was not until the [Random Evolution Land Card] came to Thailand in Southeast Asia that he remembered [Lin Jiuying].
