Chapter 62: The Genius Young Lady's Masterstroke

  In the film, there is an organization called "Brotherhood" which is divided into Eastern Brotherhood and Western Brotherhood. Within the Brotherhood, there is a group of elite warriors known as the "Holy Knights". To evaluate, the Eastern Brotherhood is a benevolent organization with a strong sense of justice, while the Western Brotherhood has a strong organizational structure but lacks the ideals of the Eastern Brotherhood. In the middle, the "Brotherhood" also appears, where the Western Brotherhood is very wealthy and each member has a set of "powered armor", while the Eastern Brotherhood is scarce and only has old-fashioned armor, which can only be obtained by the elite among the elite.

  Bruce Lee, on the other hand, played a holy knight of the Eastern Brotherhood, who came to the American West but was ostracized because of the different ideologies between the two brotherhoods. This also subtly hinted at racism.

  At this time, Bruce Lee had just met Masaaki Hatsumi and also moved the dojo to behind Masaaki Hatsumi's store.

  At this moment, he suddenly received a call from New York.

  The one who made the call was none other than Catherine.

  But after receiving the call, Bruce Lee was somewhat puzzled, but he soon realized something.

  In fact, Bruce Lee had never seen "The Blair Witch", but that didn't stop him from hearing the name of Catherine. It's just that he hadn't met a "Catherine" yet, so he simply thought the Catherine he knew was just a namesake.

  But now that the phone call has come, Li Xiaolong suddenly reacted: It's obvious that this Catherine he had saved before was the director of the Witch Blair!

  The Blair Witch has a box office of tens of millions of dollars, which is unimaginable for a B-movie, but Catherine did it.

  But now, the other party has actually found themselves!

  She wants to act in movies herself? As the lead actress?

  Bruce Lee thought for a moment and agreed.

  Maybe this is an opportunity for self-development?

  After all, Bruce Lee had shot many films in Hong Kong but hadn't tried it yet in America.

  So, the three leading men of white, yellow and black all showed up. Considering the audience's relationship, actually only Sean Connery is the real master.

  After the characters are set, the next step is to build the scene.

  Catherine chose a location on the outskirts of Mexico, and because it was all Gobi Desert here, it was also very convenient to shoot exterior scenes.

  The main scenes to be built are the village of Waste Earth and the underground shelter, which will take about a few months. So Catherine decided to shoot the outdoor scenes first. However, even for outdoor scenes, it takes almost a month to set up the scene, although it's still being set up, but the site has finally started to be built.

  Set up the exterior scene, Catherine wants to strive for a futuristic style that may not need functionality but must be able to reflect the future style.

  For this, Catherine also designed a "Microsoft 3000" computer specifically for the movie.

  Of course, this computer only has one shell, after all, the current technology is not up to par. However, the large "Microsoft" on the screen is Catherine's own advertisement.

  Catherine's personal computer is called "Microsoft Computer", which is also a bit of a bad taste.

  To get back on topic, Mr. Bill Gates is probably still a young boy now, I really don't know if he will set up his own company in the future?

  At this time, September was also gradually approaching.

  On August 31, the United States saw from U-2 spy plane photographs that Cuba was beginning to build sites for Soviet surface-to-air missiles and saw Soviet ships carrying more of the weapons toward Cuba.

  On September 4, the White House issued a statement confirming press reports of Soviet military aid to Cuba, including the installation of missiles and the presence of about 3,500 Soviets in the island nation for technical services.

  On October 14, Americans obtained evidence through U-2 spy planes that the Soviets were building six medium-range missile bases in Cuba.

  As things progressed step by step, the American people began to feel panic about nuclear bombs being so close to their own territory.

  At this time, it can almost be said that the entire world is on the brink of a nuclear war...

  And at this time, "Radiation" began to sell well.

  Or put it another way, sales began to show a geometric doubling increase on the basis of the original.

  At the same time, "Wasteland", which was previously announced by Catherine, also drew people's attention.

  It wasn't until then that people discovered that the genius girl who had filmed "The Blair Witch" had already started filming her second movie!

  During the missile crisis, Americans were in a state of panic, and suddenly they heard this news, and everyone began to pay infinite attention to it.

  And now without the internet and with television spreading, a message can last for a long time, which is also very beneficial to Catherine.

  Although Catherine's Dream Factory was founded quietly.

  But just as filming was about to start, Catherine suddenly became high-strung.

  Catherine immediately announced some news.

  In "Wasteland", he will invest $20 million of his own funds!

  Hollywood was startled by Catherine.

  Half of America was also stunned by this $20 million.

  This is $20 million.

  A whopping 200 million dollars!

  What is this concept?

  Stanley Kubrick shot "2001: A Space Odyssey" for a mere $10.5 million.

  Even the so-called most expensive film "Ben-Hur" costs only $150 million!

  They were all scared by her.

  Electronics is Catherine's main direction, and film industry is another money tree for Catherine.

  Both hands must grasp and both hands must be firm.

  Moreover, there can be a mutually interactive relationship between the two sides, so why not?

  Taking this opportunity, Catherine launched the "Wasteland" series of war chess, with rules using a different technique from the "Magic War Chess" series. Although it's not the same, Catherine had seen this part before, so based on the current actual situation, she made some modifications and naturally settled it.

  Perhaps due to the 200 million yuan spent on its promotion, many people are now discussing Catherine's film "Wasteland", with high expectations all around. As a result, the released "Wasteland Chess: Radiation" has also been well-received, further boosting sales of Catherine's book "Radiation".

  Although the cost is 20 million, she actually invested around 10 million, and now, before the film has even started shooting, Catherine has already recouped $1 million, which can be said to have gotten off to a good start.

  And then The New York Times ran a big headline - "A Genius of Large Promise" - and overnight, Catherine became famous.

  The report briefly told Catherine's story of becoming rich and was accompanied by a photo authorized by Catherine.

  Catherine Edson's name suddenly became a household name... comparable to Hollywood stars.
