King of Hollywood Chapter 12: A sudden aura of light

"Virtual...virtual world?" Catherine was more confused.

　　 "If you read William Gibson's "Neuromancer", you know how close the virtual world is to us. This novel created a cyberpunk science fiction novel." Adrian continued.

　　Catherine's mouth twitched, and she looked like she was laughing: "Sounds... it seems... very esoteric."

　　 "It doesn't matter, you will feel confused for the first time you are exposed to these concepts. It wouldn't be strange if you read more of these novels." Adrian waved its hand, "You don't need to care about those, just talk about how you feel about the story ."

　　 "Only from the point of view of the story..." Catherine turned her head to think for a while and pouted her mouth to look very cute, "Because both are fragments, the two stories have not yet fully unfolded, so it is impossible to take the whole Make a comment. Just a snippet, I think that the story about the zombie is more attractive in terms of description, such as..."

　　She reached over and took the manuscript, then read it: "Jill rolled on the spot, avoiding the drooling teeth of her face, and the countless training made her a conditioned reflex. Kicked fiercely on the mandible of the opponent. Although the rotten zombie dog made a few wails, it fell on the ground and bounced right away. It snarled and drowned again.

　　呯! Ji'er's gun rang, and she finally picked up her pistol at the first shot, and instantly aimed and pulled the trigger. After the continuous shooting, the disgusting zombie dog finally fell to the ground and no longer moved, but before she let out a sigh of relief, several zombies crashed into the corridor. Surprised, Ji'er quickly turned around and ran, she ran all the way to the door of the hallway, and closed the door heavily before leaning on the door to gasp. Only then did she find that her palms and vest were soaked. "

　　Catherine finished here, and then looked up at Adrian: "Your description is very graphic, so the zombie story segment with a large action description is more attractive than the one... virtual world story segment .. I think this feature probably has nothing to do with your director’s work."

　　 "I have to say, you are very smart, Miss Miss Kate Beckinsale Sa," Adrian clapped his hands approvingly, "and I have my own opinions on the novel, I am surprised."

　　 "When I was in'Gordon Finn and Wright Meer' Girls' School, I won the WH Smith Writing Competition twice, the first was three essays, and the second was three poems." Catherine's tone It sounds as if it doesn't care, but her slightly firm chest still betrayed her inner world, and Adrian shook her head slightly in a dumb smile.

　　Catherine probably also realized that she was overdone and could not help embarrassingly coughing: "Of course, it is incomparable to someone like you who casually writes stories-frankly, are you not afraid of causing confusion? This will write two books at the same time."

　　 "How do you say this..." Adrian thought for a while, "What you said is indeed possible, but it is not serious. I wrote only some fragments, and these fragments have been conceived before writing. More important. What's more, after these kinds of different concepts come back and collide in my mind, maybe a lot of new valuable thoughts will come out, such as..."

　　 He stopped talking suddenly, his eyes staring straight at Catherine, and Catherine, who had been waiting for him to talk, reacted after a while, and rolled her eyes annoyedly: "What is it?"

　　 "Wait!" Adrian shook his finger up, still staring at Catherine closely.

　　Catherine narrowed her neck, frowned, and looked at Adrian with an inexplicable look.

　　 "Stand up," Adrian made a gesture, "Stand up, turn around."

　　 Catherine frowned deeper, but she was surprisingly lifeless, and stood up and turned around in front of him. Adrian rubbed his chin and stood up suddenly, and also circled in the room. Sometimes he murmured to Catherine's chin and frowned, and finally made a gesture to Catherine: "Can you?"

　　Catherine sighed, brushed her hair behind her head, and grabbed a nondescript ponytail with one hand.

　　 "I know, what do you want to do..." She asked him looking at him helplessly, but was interrupted by Adrian before she finished speaking: "Laura!"

　　 "Laura? Sorry, I thought you should remember mine..."

　　 "Laura Croft!"

　　 "Mr. Kewell, if you do this again, please allow me..."

　　"Let me think about it, let me think about it, she should be somewhat masculine and wild, she should be an orphan, and then adopted by an archaeology professor, she was right under the nurturing of that professor... In this case, those adventurous behaviors are passive and too similar to Indiana Jones... Yes, noble, she should be a noble, so that she can get a good education and have more time for exploration, the most It's a noble family with an archaeological tradition..." Adrian said hurriedly while turning around, as if it had fallen into its own world.

　　Catherine was finally impatient. She took a deep breath and said aloud: "Mr. Kewell, can I leave?"

　　 "Ah, Miss Miss Kate Beckinsale, I'm so sorry," Adrian finally woke up, "I apologize for my rudeness, I just suddenly thought of a very interesting idea."

　　 "A very interesting idea?" Catherine looked at him amusedly.

　　 "Yes, the female version of Indiana Jones." Adrian made a gesture, took a piece of white paper and a pen, and then explained while drawing: "Laura Crawford, Lawful Countess of the eleventh generation in the family. In 1547, Edward VI granted the property and residence rights to the Crawford family in Abington, Surrey. Laura received aristocratic education from an early age. Genius, if this continues, she may become an English lady, but a 9-year-old encounter changed all that. When she and her mother returned home by plane, the plane crashed in the Himalayas, and her mother died on the spot, and 9 Laura, who spent 10 days with her own efforts, walked from ice and snow to Kathmandu...It seems a bit exaggerated. After all, it is only a 9-year-old girl...but this is also suitable for her genius title, and there is also the protagonist halo... "

　　 "Wait, wait!" Catherine interrupted Adrian's words, and she looked at him incredulously: "These are you coming up with within a few minutes?!"

　　 "Well... That's right, there are still many places to set." Adrian shrugged, and pressed the paper in his hands to Catherine's. This is a set draft. Although there are no facial features, and the hands and feet are also very simple, but a few strokes still outline the image of a woman wearing short-sleeved shirts, hot pants, and military boots, carrying a backpack and carrying a gun and wearing big braids. Come out, an attractive trait suddenly appeared on the paper.

　　Catherine stared at the female figure in the picture without knowing what she was thinking,

　　 "Your facial features are too soft and delicate, and Laura needs a bit of wildness and unruly. I have to say that it is a pity." Adrian said with a sigh.

　　 "You have seen those arrangements? If there is no opinion, I will take it to Mr. Haggis." Catherine asked suddenly, and put the sketch on the table as if it was not worth mentioning.

　　 "Of course, I don't have any other opinions." Adrian is not much to say, and handed over the thin itinerary.

　　 "Thank you." Catherine said briefly, and hurriedly left the room.

　　Adrian looked at the door quietly with his hands crossed for a long time.

　　 "Good job, Haggis." He finally said softly.

　　Everything is within his plan, let Haggis make an excuse to let Catherine come to the room, and then talk about the harmonious relationship-except the last "Tomb Raider" idea. This is indeed because of Catherine.

　　 originally wanted to write "Resident Evil" and "The Matrix" as novels out of a psychology of playing with Japanese people. Although "Neuromancer" has long proposed the concept of a virtual world ~ IndoMTL.com ~ and "Blade Runner" also proposed a true definition from another aspect, but most people still relish the "Ghost in the Shell", after all The two drivers admit that this animation, which will appear only a few years later, gave them a lot of inspiration.

　　 For the epoch-making movie "The Matrix", Adrian is sure to let it go-to take the path of others, let others have no way to go, is his current strategy-so simply put the novel version first Write it out so as not to be contacted with "Ghost in the Shell". Anyway, the previous life did not analyze the script of "The Matrix", and it is absolutely no problem to slightly modify the novel written in trilogy. As for "Resident Evil", that is a plus.

　　While writing fragments of the novel, he was also perfecting his plan. After constantly revising and thinking, he suddenly found that writing "Resident Evil" ​​and "The Matrix" into novels would greatly help his plan, so he From Los Angeles to London, he always took the time to write some, for this he also complained about the hotel lamp.

　　 Now because of Catherine, Adrian has come up with a theme that can be written as a novel, and the game "Tomb Raider" will only appear after 6 years. I have to say that I am lucky. Moreover, this sudden electronic sound not only had the same effect on his plan as "Resident Evil" and "Matrix", but also completely relaxed the relationship with Catherine. It was really a double benefit.

　　 "This is just the beginning." Adrian sat down again in front of the typewriter.

　　Catherine is very attractive, but you can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry. As for his own plan, unless a big premise is solved, it will only be on paper.

　　 "Crow, don't let me down." Adrian murmured as he struck the letters.
