Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 716 Various Repercussions

"My sister just came back from the Hongkou Gymnasium, hahaha, let me tell you, not going to Angela's concert will definitely be the biggest loss in your life! You don't even know what you missed! You have seen the Little Tigers "Love" Have you ever seen Angela who is holding a pipa, wearing black wig and black contact lenses and singing "Laughing Red Dust"?! Have you ever seen Angela singing Peking Opera and drunken concubine while throwing up her sleeves?!

Oh, what a pity, you guys can even miss such a grand occasion.

That's right, I'm here to show off, you didn't say 'it's just a concert, what's so good about it', I'm here to tell you, it's much better than what you expected!Forget it, my sister is not here to talk to you people, so as not to talk about me again.In addition, according to the gossip, Angela will be interviewed by Dragon TV tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, please contact me if you are willing to go! "

This is a post on the entertainment section of a well-known website. After it was posted, there was a splash and it was quickly submerged.After the concert, similar posts began to occupy the forums of major entertainment websites, some shared joy, some showed off their power, some discussed talents, some quarreled and complained, etc., as if not doing so would not be enough to vent their hearts excitement.

After all, there have been many foreign stars who have come to Shanghai for concerts in recent years, and they can also say hello in half-baked Chinese. Is there anyone who can communicate in Chinese like Angela and sing all kinds of songs? Chinese songs?What's more, Angela's status is much higher than those ordinary stars.

Therefore, it can be predicted that Angela's popularity in China will rise to an astonishing height.I have to say that the desire of the Chinese to be recognized is too strong. A little kindness shown by others will be magnified ten times immediately, and then turned into gratitude—of course, if you feel betrayed, the hatred you will generate will also be magnified. ten times.

Well, none of this has anything to do with Angela. After the concert, she should go back to the hotel and sleep with Natalie in her arms.Although there have been three concerts, and although I have mentally prepared for the possible fatigue during the rehearsal, after the official performance, there is still a feeling of wanting to slump on the ground and not move.

In addition to ensuring the perfect display of all kinds of tricks, the mental pressure is also much greater than other concerts.After all, in Angela's heart, the Chinese concert is different from other concerts, even though she has cut off the past.

"In any case, the concert has been successfully completed, so let me kiss one now!" Although very tired, Angela returned to the hotel and hugged Natalie and began to make out. Judging from the atmosphere of the concert, the concert was still very exciting. Successfully, she didn't spend so much effort in vain, and it's time to relax after working so hard for so long.

But Natalie obviously didn't intend to make Angela too relaxed, and she entered a petrified state with one sentence: "You are performing on stage wearing a wig and contact lenses, do you think you don't want to wear makeup to go out on the street in the future? "

"Hmmmm..." Angela was stunned for a long time, her face twitched uncertainly for a long time before she complained in frustration, "Why didn't you say it sooner! After rehearsing for so long, you have plenty of opportunities!"

Natalie's forehead suddenly jumped up, and after staring at her for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier? How could I say it earlier?! I thought you had already made arrangements. You have been rehearsing for so long, don't you even have this?" Think about it?!"

Angela opened her mouth for a long while unable to speak, and finally fell down on the bed with a whimper, kicking and throwing a temper tantrum.

Natalie rolled her eyes and didn't bother to comfort her, so she turned and went to the bathroom.After the sound of rushing water came from inside, Angela, who was crawling on the bed and covered her face, stopped complaining. The eyes between her fingers suddenly opened and a flash of light flashed. She suddenly jumped up and rushed into the bathroom like a whirlwind. A cascade of voices.

"Damn it! Angie! You're at it again! Can't you just let me take a good shower!"

"Hee hee, who told you not to lock the bathroom door? Well, well, it's not like they didn't wash together."

"Stop...stop! You are like this...you make me like this...oh...oh...don't be like this..."

"Tsk tsk, you said don't do this, but your hands have never stopped. Where are you pinching?"

"Damn it...it's not because...you said...oh...you promised..."

"Of course, of course I promised you, so... we have all night..."

Although she was obsessed with making the Shanghai concert extremely special and perfect, Angela made a big mistake for herself, but she quickly put this issue behind her.Anyway, it's useless to regret it after poking it all out. Besides, I don't necessarily have to wear wigs and contact lenses when I go out in the street. There are many ways to cover up, but it's more troublesome than wigs and contact lenses.So, it's more practical to hang out with Natalie.

The Shanghai concert had the same sensational effect as the Tokyo concert, even more so than the Tokyo concert. At least Angela did not wear a kimono to sing Noh or Kyogen at the Tokyo concert.Dragon TV, which obtained the exclusive rights to broadcast the broadcast, aired some of the scenes the next day, and those crooked voices immediately died down temporarily. Although they would come out and dance sooner or later, at least they could only disappear strategically for now.

Same as when she was in Japan, Angela also accepted the invitation for an exclusive interview. This time the program was an interview with Dragon TV's Yang Lan.Like most interviews, chat about life, career, and various feelings.Of course, since we are here to talk about Angela’s impressions of China, for example:

"What's your impression of Peking Opera?"

"Well... this is an artistic image with Chinese characteristics. It is similar to opera in many ways. Its English name literally translates to Beijing opera, but... frankly speaking, because of cultural differences, I often don't understand those actors. What are you singing—it's not that you don't understand the meaning, but that you don't understand why you sing in this way."

"But you... showed off your Peking Opera vocals at the previous concert, didn't you?"

"Yes, but there are only a few lines. The whole song is actually adapted from Peking Opera, which is different from real Peking Opera. I think it will be very interesting to combine some classical things with popular things just right."

"It is said that you have put in a lot of effort to get this song, is that true?"

"That's right, in Chinese it means... signed a lot of unequal treaties, I like this song, I think it's worth it."

"Among Hollywood stars, you are probably the only one who can speak Chinese so well. Generally speaking, it is not difficult to speak a foreign language fluently and communicate with others, but if you can understand many common sayings and slang, you must speak Chinese in the same language. You have to live in the environment. Can you tell us how you did it?"

"Probably because I often went to Chinatown with my grandma when I was young, but at that time it was easy to confuse Cantonese and Mandarin, and grandma corrected it many times. Her Chinese is very good, and she has one-half of Chinese descent."

"Really?!"

"Yes, although grandma didn't tell me in detail, I think she was born in China, because she spent some time in Jinling Women's University when she was a child, and she still has some vague impressions of Nanjing."

It's no wonder that Yang Lan was so surprised. The media's introduction to Angela's family has always focused on her parents and grandpa. As for her grandfather, she only occasionally mentions it, and never introduces it specifically.This is of course because the relationship between the Albert family and the British royal family is inextricably linked and worthy of hype, and the means that Grandpa used in it are also indisputable.

So about her [-]/[-] Chinese ancestry, there are rumors but never confirmed.And now that Angela personally confirmed this matter on the talk show, one can imagine how much sensation it will cause.

But for Americans, this is not a big deal. Anyway, the sign of the United States has always been a melting pot of nations. Besides, Angela is an American no matter how you look at it, so the Chinese are the most excited. When discussing which one is more gorgeous, the Shanghai concert or the Tokyo concert, it is a sharp weapon to fight with the Japanese.

Well, these are all things to say later, although Ms. Yang expressed surprise, but the surprise was just right. The topic of the chat quickly turned to career, and after the old students talked about movies and music, it turned to business. Come.

"I really don't have any talent, but I was very optimistic about the IT industry at the beginning." Angela still answered this way.

After a few sentences, Yang Lan casually asked her if she had browsed the Chinese website, and she suddenly became interested after Angela gave a positive answer.

"Can you tell us which websites are available?" She asked curiously.

"Many, but most of them are community websites," Angela replied, with a mischievous gleam in her eyes, "and I have registered accounts and posted posts on many websites."

"Really? Can we take a look?" Yang Lan, who was interested, said so.

Naturally, Angela would not disagree, so she demonstrated on the spot, and deliberately turned over the post introducing herself in a large community. The result... Because it was a live broadcast, Yang Lan didn't want to interfere, so he could only watch it in the end. Looking at those replies, he said something embarrassingly "Netizens are generally a little impulsive" to cover up the past.

But, although it was covered up in the show, it caused an uproar on the Internet. At the beginning, almost no one believed that the guy with the ID "Angela Mason" was really the big star on the Pacific side, and most of the comments were just spraying , a few of them are quite vicious.Although Dragon TV switched the camera in time during the broadcast, the post remained there and was not deleted. As a result, the community was once blocked by swarms of visits, and even the page could not be opened.And the post that has been sprayed on more than ten pages has been sprayed on dozens of pages-of course, the latter are all the people who sprayed the previous ones.

Such a scene directly led to two consequences. The first one is that most of the IDs that sprayed on Angela have never appeared again—but some thick-skinned people can be found everywhere, and they even said "I just sprayed it on." How proud of that woman who is admired by you fools, but every time you post, people will quickly occupy the sofa, bench, and basement, and watch for hours with peanuts, soda, and melon seeds.

And the other is, so Chinese community forum IDs named "AngelaMason" have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and even spread to several Chinese communities and forums outside of China.In the end, Angela had to log in to the community that she had logged into in the show, and posted a post stating that she had not registered with this name in any other Chinese forums or communities except for the places mentioned in the show, and she will not register in the future. I will no longer log in to these registered forums and communities, even though they marked and dealt with the ID "AngelaMason" in the first place.

Well, these are just things to say later, although such an incident happened halfway, but with the prepared surprise appearance, everything is back on track.This was an out-and-out surprise. Angela never thought that these people from Dragon TV would find those music school students who listened to her playing guitar and singing "White Fox" by the West Lake ten years ago. , four, and Angela didn't recognize any of them, but that was enough to surprise her.

"Although I didn't agree to take pictures with them at the beginning, the tourists around me took a lot of pictures. The ones that were circulated on the Internet in China last year. It just so happened that a staff member of Dragon TV was one of those college students back then, so on my promise After the show, I secretly invited a few people," Angela said to Natalie after returning to the hotel after the interview, "I couldn't help but think that it would be perfect if you were there."

"Why?" Natalie raised her eyebrows, "Because I was there ten years ago? If so, you should probably ask them to set the place of visit as the embankment of West Lake."

"Okay, Nat, I just have a little feeling, time flies so fast, it has been ten years in the blink of an eye." Angela stretched in front of the French window and said, turning around and looking at the girl on the sofa. Natalie, she walked over a few steps and picked Natalie up, then sat on the sofa and hugged her tightly in her arms.

Natalie didn't struggle. Instead, she wrapped her arms around Angela's neck and stared into those emerald green eyes.

"Everything seems to have happened yesterday," Angela stroked her smooth face, "I still remember...at that time because...because of...and I didn't take your feelings into consideration..."

"Are you going to apologize for what happened ten years ago?" Natalie chuckled.

Angela curled her lips: "I'm not joking, Nat, I was just thinking...if you weren't there at that time...what would I be like now..."

Natalie pursed her lips, put her head on Angela's shoulder and sighed softly: "I still remember how crazy and lustful you were at that time, you grabbed me like a drowning person At the last straw... I can't refuse your request, any request, just like the kiss in the police station bathroom, this is probably... doomed..."

The two of them didn't speak anymore, they hugged each other and felt each other's warm body. After a long time, Angela spoke softly again: "I love you, Nat."

"I love you too, Angie." Natalie replied in the same voice.

The broadcast of the talk show undoubtedly increased Angela's popularity in China. In the next few days, various discussions filled the media, the Internet, the streets and alleys, and various schools.Dragon TV even launched a special program "Angela and China", which introduced Angela's various connections with China in detail, and the ratings skyrocketed a lot.

The most interesting thing is that some celebrities in the cultural circles also use various methods—such as flattery or pretentious criticism—to associate themselves with Angela. no longer strangers.

Of course, no matter how much you criticize, it will not involve "Rabe's Diary", because Angela is American and not just a star or director, these people are still very realistic in this regard.

Moreover, many Chinese advertisers also came to visit and wanted to invite her to advertise and be an image spokesperson. Although they all knew from the colleagues in the Pacific whether Angela would agree to it depends on the mood, but they still kept going. send invitation.In their opinion, Miss Angel loves Chinese culture so much, so it is possible for Ai Wu and Wu to accept the invitation, even if the chance is very small, if they agree, they will make a lot of money.

It's a pity that the miracle didn't happen. Angela didn't even care about those advertisers in the United States, so how could she care about it? Except for the Barbie doll and Chanel angel perfume launched in her image and name, the only products she endorsed were Apple. of the I series products.Even so, Angela still wanted to give up the image spokesperson of the I series. If she hadn't been for Apple's major shareholder and Jobs' repeated persuasion, she might have quit long ago.Isn't it the endorsement fee of 3000 to [-] million US dollars? It's not as much as Google earns a dollar up in the stock market.

Although Angela didn't care about these things, she found it very troublesome. Originally, she would have fun with her lover for a few days after each concert, but because of these things, she can only stay in the hotel and can't go anywhere.

"It's okay, as long as you are by my side." Natalie comforted her.

But before leaving Shanghai, Angela finally seized the opportunity to escape from being surrounded by Chinese fans, and then ran to Hangzhou with Natalie to revisit the old place.

This revisit to the old place was quite enjoyable. Although Angela could see that Natalie wanted to ask her several times what made her so desperate at the beginning, she didn't ask her in the end.But when Angela asked tentatively, Natalie, who understood, just smiled and didn't answer.

Angela couldn't figure it out, but she didn't think too much about it, and she cut it off after the past, so let these become a mystery.

The ending of revisiting the old place was neither good nor bad. When preparing to leave West Lake, Angela was unfortunately recognized by someone.Naturally, being watched and chased is inevitable. What's worse, there happened to be several entertainment reporters nearby who didn't know who came to interview.Fortunately, there are 7 or 8 fans of Angela's China Support Club here. These young men and women formed a circle outside the bodyguards to block the reporters who heard the news. Just get in the car.Facing this group of lovely people, Angela did not hold back her smiling face.
