Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 663 Ghost Story

After all, Charlotte can sell old-fashioned wooden handmade boats at such high prices. In addition to the high prices of handmade products in this era and the rich people's money, the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean" added to the value of these boats. This is also an important reason.

After all, these ships are peripheral to the movie.

——Not too much, too much will be worthless.

In contrast, Charlotte was more concerned about contract negotiations with the main actors of the show.

Ruifan is easy to talk to, but Depp and Jenny's agents are not easy to deal with.

What's more, in addition to these three protagonists, there are also a group of important supporting actors including Geoffrey Rush!

Fortunately, because the trilogy was shot continuously and the movie has not yet been released, the agents are missing an important supporting element of the lion's mouth after all.

Although they still negotiated for a stepped remuneration agreement based on the box office performance of the film after its release, subsequent compensation income will be compensated.

But compared to many trilogy-type commercial blockbusters, where the last few leading actors are paid tens of millions, and they also receive a share of the box office and even DVDs. Now the cost has been reduced a lot.

At least, as a producer, Charlotte is satisfied.

Therefore, with his worries relieved, he devoted more and more energy to the filming of movies.

The filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew went smoothly in Rosarito. The only problem was that the year 2000 was approaching, and even though Rosarito was located in Mexico, the climate became a bit cold.

Of course, to some extent, this kind of coldness is just right for a dark fantasy movie like "Pirates of the Caribbean."

It's just that the actors faced this uncomfortable coldness and were somewhat unmotivated outside of filming hours.

Especially the fog blowing from time to time on the nearby sea made everyone want to stay in the trailer and tent without coming out during non-shooting time.

Little did they know that in addition to climate factors, director Charlotte was also behind the scenes.

——He took the "Heart of the Ocean" that he had obtained from the crew of "Titanic" and sealed many dead water ghosts, and threw it back into the huge water tank in Rosarito.

Although this did not lift the seal, it made the feeling of Rosarito's ghost realm much more obvious.

This actually made the atmosphere during the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" much stronger, but it was just a pain for the actors.

Especially recently, Charlotte often lights a bonfire and tells everyone some ghost stories at night after the filming is completed...

"The director has such a bad character!"

As an ordinary girl who occasionally has nightmares after hearing ghost stories, Jenny couldn't help but complain in her heart about the weirdness of Mr. Director.

However, sometimes, she feels like this is fun——

After all, on a dark and cold night, a group of people gathered around the fire to listen to ghost stories and so on, which gave Jenny a warm feeling of returning to her childhood.

By now, she was no longer worried that Charlotte would "dedicate herself to art."

In fact, the atmosphere on the entire "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew is very good——

Not to mention the director, the three leading actors get along very happily despite their huge difference in status.

Although Phoenix Retton is taciturn, he is always willing to help at critical moments. He is actually a good person with a cold face and a warm heart.

——Of course, Jenny still had some lingering fears about his "head falling off" vision.

As for Johnny Depp, although his character is somewhat weird like Captain Jack Sparrow, he is not difficult to get along with.

In particular, Depp often buys some interesting snacks, and the entire crew often attends them.

If Jenny didn't have to go on a diet for the sake of her body as an actress, she would be very fond of Depp.

The rest of the crew were also very friendly. Even the photographer who was said to particularly like to "take pictures" of actresses behaved well.

— although he does occasionally make some slightly over-the-top jokes.

All in all, this environment made Jenny feel very comfortable, but sometimes she couldn't help but wonder if she had joined a fake crew.

——After all, this is Hollywood!

Not to mention the "ABCs of precautions for filming" that her agent instilled in her in advance, what Jenny had seen and heard when she was playing a small role in other productions also made her understand that the warmth of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" crew is not actually Unusual.

"This is actually because many people in this crew have been working together for a long time."

The agent explained to Jenny,

"Many of them are long-term employees of Spectre Studios and have filmed several movies with Charlotte Booth - even if there are conflicts between them, they will not be exposed easily."

"Under the strength and authority of Director Charlotte, the others have already exhausted their efforts just to complete their jobs, and naturally they have no energy to conflict with others."

"That's true."

Jenny thought back to how she felt so exhausted after shooting every day that she wanted to sleep immediately, and felt that her agent was right.

"It seems that with a strong director suppressing it, the conflicts among the crew will be much less?"

Jenny joked.

The agent nodded,

"Actually, it's not just Charlotte Booth. The crews of many powerful directors have relatively few conflicts between members. Just like the "Titanic" crew that built the Rosarito tank - "

"of course!"

Jenny muttered,

"With that tyrant on set, it's enough for everyone in the crew to just hate him, so how can they still have the energy to contradict each other?"

"That's it!"

The agent smiled and shrugged.

*********

Of course, Jenny's agent wasn't in Rosarito just to joke about it - he was there to inform her of the pay negotiations between Jenny and Philip Biermann.

"Overall, it's much better than we expected."

The agent handed Jenny a cup of hot tea,

"It can be seen that although the crew does want to try their best to keep the salary cost down, they don't want to go too far, so I still negotiated a good ladder salary with you. But-"

The agent glanced at Jenny with some hesitation,

"In order to cooperate with the crew's future publicity, you still need to do some work, and you may also encounter some accidents - although there will be no danger, you have to be prepared."

"Accident!?"

Jenny was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand indifferently,

"I'm just an ordinary actress, not a stuntman, what kind of accident can happen? Besides, you should know me - even if I encounter an accident, I won't panic."

"That's best!"

The agent smiled.

Looking at the other party’s serious look, Jenny didn’t know if there was any deeper meaning in the other party’s words, until——(https:)
