Chatty Hollywood

"Is this really that Charlize!?"

Charlotte was surprised by the performance of the girl in front of her.

Although so far, he has not been able to confirm whether the thorny, but obviously immature blonde girl in front of him is the cold Queen Theron of the later generations. But even if she is, although she will be an Oscar winner in the future, according to the comments Charlotte has read, Charlize Theron's acting skills are not top-notch.

She was born as a model, but she also has the common problem of a model who was born as an actor. Her facial expressions are relatively rigid and not rich enough. Don't say that compared with actresses of Meryl Streep's level, she also seems to have no confidence in the face of some rising stars, such as the big cousin Jennifer Lawrence-it is said that in "The Burning Plain", it was already Theron, who is the queen of the movie, was overwhelmed by the big cousin who was just a fledgling-although Charlotte had never seen the movie.

Fortunately, in "Snow White and the Huntsman", facing Kristen Stewart, who is also regarded as a junior, she can still do a job with ease.

Therefore, Charlize Theron is not an extremely talented actor. Her subsequent improvement in acting skills depends on the gradual accumulation of time. What will happen to her acting skills when she is less than twenty years old and just a fledgling? So, before that, Charlotte actually didn't have much hope for Charlize's acting skills.

However, the blonde girl really surprised him——

Charlotte has seen the old version of "Spider-Man", of course, not the James Cameron version. Among them, the scene where Spiderman hangs upside down and kisses Mary Jane in the rain is very famous, which can almost be regarded as the kiss of the century in the film industry of the new century - and Charlize's performance, although it is only virtual, gives him the feeling, but It is completely different from the original version, but more addictive and beautiful.

You know, although the kiss scene is a touch of magnificence in the movie, however, this kind of scene is not easy to shoot, let alone a virtual kiss scene by one person. A man with his lips curled up and kissing the air looks absolutely stupid, even for a beauty of Charlize's level. But the blonde girl's performance at this time made him involuntarily amazed, as if he could also see the non-existent Spider-boy in the air, who was hanging upside down in the air, intoxicated by the excitement of the girl next door, Mary Jane. kiss.

"Should I say farewell to Shibai for three days, should I look at it with admiration? I always feel something is wrong!"

Although she marvels at Charlize's unexpected acting skills, Charlotte also knows that Alexis's acting skills are more likely to be involved in this - after all, it is not the real Charlize who is driving this beautiful shell , but the "Alexis" they were going to deal with. Although Charlize also remained awake, it was more like the usual subconscious mind, which could only provide emotions and imagination for this performance.

However, it was this "just" that surprised him even more——

Charlotte knew that although he was proficient in all kinds of spell knowledge, he was actually not very good at exorcising demons and catching ghosts because he had just traveled to this era where spells could be practiced and had no time to accumulate strength. At least it is not an easy task for him to deal with a ghost like Alexis that can attach to a living person. Therefore, in order to ensure victory, Charlotte chose to set a trap. However, how to lure the ghost Alexis into the trap is a very troublesome problem.

Just like what he told Charlize Cope before, a ghost of Alexis' level is actually not very powerful in nature. Unlike his master, the old ghost, Alexis's ghost is usually unconscious at all, a chaotic body full of negative emotions. Ghosts in this state are actually not scary. As long as you keep your mind balanced, don’t generate too many negative emotions, and don’t do things that may activate ghosts, even if you are possessed by such ghosts, you can still be safe—— But this is easier said than done,

It is not easy to maintain a peaceful and optimistic state of mind for a long time, and it is basically impossible for people who can maintain this state of mind to have negative emotions and attract ghosts.

So, in general, if you are possessed by a ghost, the safest way is to get rid of it directly. The problem Charlotte faces is that if she wants to get rid of Alexis, she has to rely on the traps that have been set up, but similarly, the act of getting rid of Alexis will inevitably activate this unconscious body. The ghost, so that she can borrow the body and brain of the possessed Charlize, can see Charlotte's arrangement, and can judge whether it is a trap. In this way, it is likely that it will not step into this preset trap at all.

At this time, it was Charlize's turn to appear.

As Charlotte told her, the ghost Alexis takes over control of Charlize's body, essentially, it's like it's switched places with Charlize's consciousness, and Charlize's consciousness is moved from the original The state of the subject's consciousness has become a deeper and more vague subconscious state similar to ghosts. Although the consciousness in this state cannot directly control the body, it can interfere with the consciousness and secretly drive it to act.

For example, when Charlize committed suicide before, it was actually largely the result of the subconscious interference of Alexis' ghost. At that time, although the drunken Charlize didn't completely lose control of her body, Alexis' already depressed mood was severely amplified by Alexis, and that's why she committed suicide.

And Charlotte's plan is to retaliate, so that after Charlize's consciousness and Alexis are separated, they will in turn influence Alexis, who controls the body, from the subconscious, causing it to hallucinate , in order to cooperate with Charlotte's plan and lure him into a trap. Having said that, if there is no hallucination interference, then Charlize's messy bedroom, Charlotte insists that it is an audition room, even if she is as heartless as Forrest Gump, she will not believe it.

It's not that he never thought about setting up an audition room to make the trap more realistic, but on the one hand, both of them are cash-strapped. Of course, Charlize is only one step away from imitating the little match girl, and Charlotte Te himself is not much better, not to mention that he has just crossed over and doesn't understand many things about the new body. This time is really not suitable, and there is no way to set up an audition room for acting;

On the other hand, from the point of view of casting spells, the protected person's home is a place full of magic, whether it is the door god or some other spells, it will be additionally strengthened here. The power of blood and emotions contained in the word "home" is beyond imagination. Even if you are abused in this home and live miserably in an attic or a cupboard, it can still protect you.

Because of these factors, Charlotte finally chose to set a trap in Charlize's home. However, in this way, two problems must be solved——

1. How to make Charlize's consciousness remain awake when she is in a subconscious state after being switched. The subconscious mind is a mess, and it is difficult to stay awake when trapped in it, but Charlize's consciousness is not a ghost. In an unconscious state, she cannot rely on instinct to accomplish what Charlotte wants her to do, so she Must remain conscious.

Fortunately, before Charlotte crossed over, although it was almost impossible to practice spells effectively due to the end of the age of magic, he did a lot of strange research and discovered many medicines that can produce wonderful changes in conjunction with spellcasting. It was one case where the use of Quadrazone to put Charlize to sleep made it easier to summon the possessed Alexis, and now it's another case - painkillers are a very common drug, but overdose can make people It produces a kind of hallucination that is ecstasy, and the consciousness is slightly confused. If it is used too many times, it may even cause drug dependence like drugs, so this drug is often abused by many people. But Charlotte discovered that excessive painkillers combined with his spells can keep people awake when they are possessed by ghosts...

2. On the premise that Charlize's consciousness remains clear, how to have enough influence on the ghost that controls her body, so that she can hallucinate and step into the trap set by Charlotte without any doubt. This depends on Charlize's imagination and emotional control. From a certain point of view, it is indeed a test of her ability as an actor.

Charlotte originally thought that it would not be easy for her who is still immature as an actor, and even prepared plan B, but unexpectedly, the blonde girl's acting skills had a big explosion, and she freely controlled Emotions caused Alexis, who controlled her body, to fall into hallucinations, mistakenly thinking that she was auditioning, and stepping into the trap step by step. From a certain point of view, this ability to control emotions and imagination is even more amazing than the superb acting skills shown by Alexis.

Perhaps Charlize is more suitable for method performances that require psychological and emotional performances! Although a beauty of her level basically doesn't need much acting skills, it seems a bit ridiculous to say that acting is a genre, but so what? Monroe is still a Methodist...

"Cut!"

Although he was surprised by Charlize's explosion of acting skills in his heart, Charlotte did not forget what he should do-in his script, he was playing the role of casting director at this time. The casting director for James Cameron's version of Spider-Man who auditioned for lead actress Mary Jane. Seeing that Alexis's performance was almost done, he decisively stopped, and then put on a satisfied expression:

"Very good! Alexis, you did a great job! Damn it, you're actually the best actress in the audition today! Those women in front of me are either posing endlessly or just don't know what to say." Keep giggling! What do they think this is!? This is not a third-rate horror movie, as long as you have blonde hair and big breasts and can run, this is a James Cameron movie!!!”

Having said that, he pondered for a while, and finally waved his hand,

"Forget it! My time is very tight, and I have to interview a lot of actors later, so I won't play the game of pretending to be reserved! Miss Alexis, I think you are the most suitable actress to interview Mary Jane. One of them, I want to initial a contract with you now, is that okay?"
