Six days later, late at night in Noland.
The Knight Of The White Thorn scrambled out of bed.
He had just received a new message in his text message. It was Josiah telling him that there was a new movie script that he wanted him to take a look at.
Originally, Josiah had planned to set the time for tomorrow morning. However, the Knight Of The White Thorn forcefully said, "I've just finished rehearsing with the troupe. I can definitely take a look at the new script."
Although it was around three o 'clock in the evening, Josiah still agreed to send the script to the White Thorn Theatre.
When the Knight Of The White Thorn got dressed and hurried to the hall of the theatre, he saw the carrier of the script … a crow.
"Do you humans sleep this late?"
The crow transformed into its Dark Elf form and landed on the ground. It handed a thick script to the Knight Of The White Thorn.
"Miss Qianmian, today was an accident."
The Knight Of The White Thorn worked in the entertainment industry in Noland. Of course, he knew the number one Dark Elf in Noland, Dark Elf Qianmian.
He carefully took the thick script from the Dark Elf's hands. The Knight Of The White Thorn's cautious expression made the Dark Elf feel as if this guy was holding a holy bible that could save the world.
However, the Dark Elf had to admit that the script written by Josiah was indeed very attractive. However, the Dark Elf made an exception this time and did not read the content in advance.
She still had her own principles when it came to the task that Josiah had given her.
The Knight Of The White Thorn was the second person other than Hiri to read the script.
As for the Knight Of The White Thorn, of course, he had been looking forward to it for a long time.
The four movies that Josiah had been involved in were all classic works. They could even be said to be at the level of being passed down through the ages.
Therefore, the Knight Of The White Thorn had been looking forward to Josiah's fifth movie script every day. Now, his wish had finally come true!
The Knight Of The White Thorn took a deep breath and flipped open the thick script. The first line that caught his eyes was: 'The plot takes place in a prison that has sealed all mana.'
Prison?
The Knight Of The White Thorn glanced at the title of the script, The Shawshank Redemption.
The name alone was as difficult to understand as "Avatar", but the Knight Of The White Thorn continued to read the story with anticipation.
"Prison break? I feel like the story this time is much more bland than Avatar. "
The Dark Elves stood behind the Knight Of The White Thorn, browsing through the new movie script.
After the impact of "Avatar" and "This Demon Is Not Too Cold", she had become more picky about a movie.
Just like Falosi's "Springtime of Narogna", although it was well received in Noland, to the Dark Elves, it could only be described as boring.
This time, there were indeed no elements that the Dark Elves liked in the script. There was no war, no tragic battles, and no novel "illusions" that the Dark Elves liked. Even the magic elements were completely abandoned.
"It is indeed much more bland than" Avatar ". The box office of this movie will probably not reach the level of" Avatar "."
The Knight Of The White Thorn quietly watched the development of the story. He was sure that the popularity of this movie would not reach the peak of "Avatar".
"But Mr. Josiah definitely did not want to film this movie for the box office."
The Knight Of The White Thorn fell silent at this point. He began to study every part of the script attentively. Inexplicably, when he saw the male lead, Andy, finally escaping from the prison and shouting in the heavy rain … something in his heart stirred.
It was a feeling that the Knight Of The White Thorn could not describe.
"After reading it, go and choose the actors. I still have to return the script to Josiah."
The Dark Elf did not continue reading with the Knight Of The White Thorn. The Dark Elf's ability to escape from prison was basically at the professional level, so she was not interested in watching a human struggle in prison through words for the time being.
"Miss Qianmian, can you allow me to read it again?" The Knight Of The White Thorn suddenly said.
"You can't remember the characters clearly?"
"No, I feel that I have touched the essence of the script, but I still feel that something is missing."
The expression on the Knight Of The White Thorn's face instantly became solemn.
When he read the scripts of the first four movies, he simply had the thought of "very good," "touching," and "will definitely be a big seller."
The meaning that the four movies were trying to express could be understood by anyone after watching them.
However, "The Shawshank Redemption" was completely different. The philosophy contained in it was too complicated, and it was not the kind of movie that could be understood at a glance.
However, the more the Knight Of The White Thorn thought about the meaning of each plot, the more he felt a strange sense of shock.
"You only need to understand the characters in the story now. Research and such matters can wait until the movie is completed."
The Dark Elf did not intend to wait here forever. Late at night was one of the best times for her to move around. Who knew how much news there was in Noland at night for her to uncover?
"This … I understand, Miss Qianmian." The Knight Of The White Thorn could only reluctantly hand the script back to the Dark Elf.
… …
The Falosi Imperial City.
"Master Morgan, I think this is the best place for your script to be filmed."
Morgan looked around and nodded with satisfaction at the layout of the surrounding scene. After getting Morgan's permission, the young artist happily went to gather the other actors.
"Master, why don't you make a movie yourself?"
Morgan's apprentice, Phyllis, followed beside him. The girl with wolf-like ears had now become a news reporter for Falosi.
However, she was still working hard in the direction of becoming an actress.
Today, Phyllis followed Morgan to the set of Mrs. Falosi's new movie. Morgan would be one of the main actors in the movie.
"I'm an actor and a playwright, but I'm not a tour guide, Phyllis."
After Morgan said this, Mrs. Sizer quickly walked over from afar.
"Lady Sizer."
After Morgan took off his hat to greet Mrs. Sizer, he noticed the strange expression on Mrs. Sizer's face. Her daughter, Carolee, was following behind Mrs. Sizer.
"When exactly will the shooting start?"
"Probably the day after tomorrow, but Master Morgan …" Mrs. Sizer hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mr. Josiah also has a script, and he hopes that you can be one of the main actors."
The new movie that Mrs. Sizer was going to film came from Morgan's work.
As the most basic pride of a Falosi, Morgan had no reason to pay attention to scripts written by foreign authors, but he couldn't ignore Josiah.
"Lady Sizer, have you seen Josiah's new script?" Morgan asked immediately.
"I have." A bitter smile appeared on Mrs. Sizer's face. "To be honest, I don't want you to see it, Master Morgan. If that's the case, our shooting might have to be delayed for a while."
"Is that so? Then please allow me to go to Noland tomorrow. "
It was the first time Morgan saw such a 'defeated' expression on Mrs. Sizer's face, but he had absolute confidence in his script.
Yet, Mrs. Sizer was so sure that Josiah's script was far better than Morgan's, and this completely piqued his curiosity.
"Mother, can I go with you?" Carolee asked softly. "The World Tree of the Darkwood Elves has already taken root in Falosi, so it's not a big deal for me to leave. Consider it a few days of vacation to visit a friend?"
"…"
Of course, Mrs. Sizer knew what her daughter was thinking. During her stay in Falosi, Mrs. Sizer had given Carolee a lot of training every day in order to help her get rid of her 'internet addiction'.
But after the training ended, Carolee would still immerse herself in the world of the Weave until late at night.
"I'll allow you to stay in Noland for a few days, but when you come back …" Mrs. Sizer suddenly bent down and whispered into Carolee's ear, "You have to tell me how your relationship with Mister Josiah has progressed."
"We just occasionally play games together. It's not what you think it is, Mother."
Carolee frankly revealed her relationship with Josiah. It was the truth. Although Carolee would occasionally mischievously send pictures of herself to Josiah to see his reaction, the truth was that they were just friends.
