Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 535: The intoxication of power

"This is probably because I'm more handsome!"

Regarding this strange question, Mr. Westwood also asked Charlotte in private chat.

——This is the answer I got.

Although Mr. Westwood sneered at this, he also knew that to some extent, this was indeed a factor.

After all, it's normal for Hollywood directors and producers to sleep with female stars, and it's not surprising even to sleep with male stars.

Who makes these guys hold great power and belong to the power class in Hollywood?

The problem is that most directors and producers don't have the attention-grabbing physiques of stars.

Even if the media reporters knew about it, they would not bother to report it unless it was a big scandal.

Because it’s really not eye-catching!

In particular, thanks to the media, the public now knows what the various deals in Hollywood are like, and no one is too lazy to pay attention to some unsubstantiated news.

Just like Michael Bay, another commercial film director who has risen in recent years——

In fact, like the famous "Jack" Leonardo DiCaprio, he is a fan of long-legged blond models, but his various scandals have always remained calm.

What’s more, there are people like Harvey Weinstein—

Mr. Westwood has also heard some secrets about this notorious leader of the independent film industry.

——Even though there are countless scumbags in the Hollywood circle, Mr. Westwood has never heard of anyone who likes to play coercion as much as this other person does.

But such news has never been revealed.

This is enough to illustrate the role of some rules and relationships in the Hollywood circle.

——Speaking of which, in the past two years, Mr. Westwood has not heard much gossip about who Weinstein raped. However, it is true that the boss’s temper is getting worse and worse.

When competing for some money-making projects, they often do some outrageous things——

Insults and threats can only be considered trivial matters. He even locked a young director in a room and forced him to agree to his request.

According to a friend of Mr. Westwood who works at Red Penguin Housekeeping Service, Harvey Weinstein seems to have recently become obsessed with games that require whips and candles, and has even asked Red Penguin to organize a similar party. …

"The bad guy will only get crazier and crazier! I just don't know when he will perish!?"

Mr. Westwood sighed inwardly.

***********

In short, for various reasons, although Hollywood directors and producers hold high positions, they are to some extent transparent in front of the spotlight of the media.

Among such transparent people, Charlotte is a very special one.

The media seemed to enjoy chasing news about him.

But this guy is always elusive and reclusive, which only increases the media's hunger.

In a sense, as a director, Charlotte is an idol.

Among them, his appearance level, which is beyond the level of ordinary directors and can almost join the celebrity circle, is definitely an important factor.

And the fact that this guy has a lot of loyal fans and his strong box office appeal is probably related to this——

"Will directors have to be idolized like celebrities in the future and form their own brand effect?"

Thinking of this, Mr. Westwood didn't know how to describe it.

He does feel that he is a little old and perhaps a little behind the times.

——Although compared to the previous two years, his current physical condition is actually better.

Even though he still carries the medicine with him, he no longer looks like he is going to die at work at any time.

"That's probably what life is like!"

Mr. Westwood sighed;

"After all, everything can't go as planned!"

"But why did Charlotte invite me to the studio to discuss things this time?"

Although I still keep in touch with Charlotte and Lao Qiang,

But Mr. Westwood knew very well that their relationship was only personal.

At work, they haven't crossed paths for a long time.

But this time Charlotte invited him to the Spectre studio to discuss things. Does this mean——

"But these guys don't really want to cooperate with New Line! And Charlotte's movie doesn't need anyone else to be his producer now..."

Westwood was thinking about it, but he didn't know what the other party wanted to do.

***************

"I heard Sally is pregnant, congratulations, Charlotte!"

Although he didn't know the other party's purpose, Mr. Westwood immediately sent his blessing to Charlotte after meeting.

After all, everyone is still friends.

But Charlotte didn’t seem particularly excited——

"Pregnancy is a good thing, but the fact that the child's mother is still hesitating about marrying me is not so happy."

"Did Sally reject your proposal?"

"That's not true."

Charlotte shrugged.

"After she had the child, she finally agreed. However, she always wanted to postpone the wedding until the child went to elementary school, for example..."

"...This has been taking so long! So, Sally's fear of intimacy hasn't been completely cured yet?"

"yes!"

Charlotte nodded, then a smile appeared on her lips,

"But she can't run away - I've convinced her!"

"Yeah?"

Although he felt that there was something in Charlotte's words, Mr. Westwood didn't know how to follow up. He could only show a smile that only a man would understand.

"Actually, it should be a good thing to have a beauty like Sally who is willing to give you a child but doesn't want the certificate yet! Why are you more anxious to get married?"

"Because if you are not married, legally speaking, the ownership of the child belongs entirely to the mother!"

Charlotte smiled bitterly and said,

"Our law's determination of parent-child relationship is based on the birth certificate and the woman's uterus - my cousin Sere Booth had a child with his ex-girlfriend despite not being married, so he couldn't compete at all. Child custody..."

"Hey, have you thought of things that far ahead?"

"That's not true!"

Charlotte shook her head;

"It's just that I finally found an opportunity to completely smash Sally's psychological snail shell. How could I let it go so easily?"

"Too!"

As an old friend who has watched the two of them come together along the way, Mr. Westwood is quite aware of the feelings between Charlotte and Charlize.

He also hopes that the two can eventually get together.

However, this is not the purpose of his coming today.

"Charlotte, you came to me today because-"

"—for this!"

When it came to business, Charlotte's expression became serious.

He placed a dark notebook and a stack of manuscript paper in front of Mr. Westwood.

On the cover of that pitch-black notebook, "DeathNote" was written boldly...
