Capítulo 511: Chapter 511
San Bernardino, located in the valley of the San Bernardino Mountains in eastern Los Angeles County.
After filming The Twilight Saga: New Moon, Kristen Stewart and Charles Capet went to Big Bear Lake in San Bernardino National Forest to spend the weekend.
In a picturesque lakeside villa at Big Bear Lake, Charles woke up with Kristen Stewart in his arms on the bed in the bedroom.
The view of the lake outside the window, combined with the seclusion of this forest lakeside villa, made it an ideal hideaway.
"Kristen, want to go boating this afternoon?" suggested Charles, gently caressing the girl's chest.
"Mm," Kristen Stewart lazily moved her body, "it's still early. We went to bed at around one last night, so let's lie down a bit longer."
Charles checked the time; it was almost 9 AM. He didn't argue and soon felt the girl kiss his chest like a little cat.
"Didn't The Twilight Saga: New Moon start filming in March and finish in June after shooting in Europe?" he asked.
"Were you back in Los Angeles for reshoots?" he continued.
Kristen Stewart nodded, "Yes, we did some reshoots in the Capet studio and some exterior shots in Glendale."
"Then there were some post-production touches to do," she added.
Kristen Stewart then crawled onto Charles, laughing, "There has been so much news about Capet lately, especially the acquisition of Universal Studios. Expectations for The Twilight Saga: New Moon are sky-high. If Capet is to make $2 billion at the North American box office this year, this film is crucial."
Charles kissed the girl on the lips, saying, "Of course, it's important. Capet's current North American box office is already $1.5 billion this year. The first Twilight hit over 200 million dollars last year. This year it's sure to pass $200 million, maybe even $300 million.
Plus, the new Marvel Studios version of The Incredible Hulk is coming out in December. It's definitely something to look forward to!
And Matrix Pictures' Piranha 3D has already been released, making $10 million in its first weekend. It should end up around $20-30 million in North America.
Also, Saw 3D comes out on Halloween, likely making $50-60 million. Art films like The Intouchables and A Single Man should together bring in another $30 million.
Altogether, Capet hitting over $2 billion in North American box office this year isn't too hard."
"Charles, you're amazing!" Kristen Stewart said, kissing him passionately.
Charles responded to the girl on top of him, his hands moving from her smooth white back to her derriere.
At that moment, his cell phone on the bedside table rang. Charles picked it up and answered, "It's after 10 PM there; why are you still up?"
It was Xu Xiaoling from China. With a 12-hour time difference, it would be 14 hours if it were New York.
"I'm in Hong Kong, just finished attending a party. I heard from the company that you're really interested in The Green Hornet, so I called to update you."
"Oh, what's up? Have you settled things?" Charles was indeed interested and gently patted Kristen Stewart's back, signaling her to stay quiet.
Kristen Stewart didn't stop her teasing; she slipped under the covers, making Charles feel a rush of heat.
"We've discussed it. Our sincerity outweighs Sony Columbia's. Stephen Chow is set to direct and play the second male lead. Stephen Chow is very interested in the film and has already begun adapting the script."
Charles laughed, "I heard from someone at Sony that Stephen Chow is creating a new martial arts script. What's going on?"
"Oh, that's right. Columbia Pictures wanted Stephen Chow to develop a sequel to Kung Fu Hustle. Chow has a script paying homage to Bruce Lee called Tai Chi, so Columbia wanted him to turn it into Kung Fu Hustle 2: Tai Chi. But the negotiations fell through, so Stephen Chow is preparing to develop Tai Chi with Hollywood on his own. He quit The Green Hornet to focus on Tai Chi."
"The rights to Kung Fu Hustle belonged to Columbia, but I've already acquired the sequel rights from Sony Columbia. Whether Stephen Chow wants to make Kung Fu Hustle 2: Tai Chi or just Tai Chi, Capet will support it."
Xu Xiaoling responded, "I'll pass this on. Stephen Chow has a script outline for Tai Chi that's somewhat similar to Bruce Lee's Return of the Dragon. They're planning to shoot it in both China and the United States, in both Chinese and English. Apart from directing and starring, Stephen Chow also wants to invite Anne Hathaway as the female lead."
Charles smiled and said, "Stephen Chow paired with Anne Hathaway sounds interesting. After The Green Hornet is finished, we can work together on Tai Chi. Seems more exciting than Kung Fu Hustle 2: Tai Chi!"
Charles didn't want to pay Sony Columbia more licensing fees, which wasn't necessary for using the Kung Fu Hustle title.
"I think I'll bring the team to Hollywood in December to finalize The Green Hornet project."
"Great, let's try to start shooting next year. Martial arts films still have a market," Charles was really looking forward to Stephen Chow's kung fu comedy.
After he hung up, Charles started thinking about who to cast as the male lead in The Green Hornet.
But his growing excitement disrupted his thoughts.
Perhaps noticing that Charles had finished the call, Kristen Stewart under the covers suddenly threw them off.
The final showdown between the two warriors ended in Kristen Stewart's victory with a little help from her nimble hands!
"Phew," Kristen Stewart gasped heavily and patted little Charles.
"Darling, didn't it try really hard?"
Charles laughed weakly, lifting his hand to brush the girl's hair.
