Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 714 Rehearsal in Shanghai

Although the Tokyo concert of Ms. Angel's world tour caused huge waves in Japan, especially the new song "onlymy" sung in Japanese completely captured the hearts of young people present at that time, but for the rest of the world—especially People in Europe and the United States——there is nothing to be surprised about. In their view, it would be strange if Angela's concert was deserted and unpopular.

Perhaps Angela's release of the English version of "Onlymy" can change this situation. After all, many American fans from Los Angeles to Sydney and Tokyo have praised the song's sense of rhythm and refreshment on the Internet—because Angie La claimed that every concert would have different tricks and themes, and these diehard fans had money and time, so they chased them all the way, and it turned out that they did not waste their money in vain.

"Glorious in Los Angeles, gentle and elegant in Sydney, wild and unrestrained in Tokyo, I can't wait to know what the next concert will look like, I want to watch all the shows!" This is a fan's official statement from Angela Web site message.

Of course, Angela will definitely not release the English version of "onlymy", so let this matter be as it is.However, Europe and the United States are only regions, not the whole world, so there is still a lively discussion on this aspect somewhere.

"I'm exhausted! Rehearsals are really not what people should do!" Angela complained as she sat down on the chair.

"What kind of creature should do that?" A joking voice rang in his ears, and water and towels were handed to him.

After taking it, she took a sip of water and wiped off her sweat. Thinking of something, Angela suddenly looked up and down the person in front of her with interest: "Why, do you think being a personal assistant is happier than being an actor?"

"That depends on whose personal assistant it is." Natalie raised her eyebrows, showing an inexplicable smile.

Since Kate handed her over to Natalie in Shanghai four days ago, Natalie has been by her side acting as an assistant.Angela originally thought that she would go back to places like Yu Garden or Chenghuang Temple to have a look. After all, it has been almost ten years since she visited Shanghai last time, and there are still great changes in ten years.

However, Natalie was always by her side. In the first three days, Alizee would give pointers, but she didn’t come again yesterday and today, because she wanted to go out for a walk and Natalie was already qualified as “Miss Angel.” assistant" job.

Thinking of Alizee biting the words "Miss Angel's assistant" with a half-smile, Angela's mouth couldn't help but twitch, even if she protested the "squeeze", she didn't need to use such words. Tone?

"What are you thinking?" Natalie asked at this moment.

"Ten years ago..." Out of nowhere, Angela said this. God knows what happened. She almost bit her own tongue.

"Has it been ten years?" Natalie sighed leisurely, "Time flies so fast."

"Don't always say that time flies, okay? It feels as if we are very old." Angela protested, and at the same time wanted to take the opportunity to change the subject.

"But every time I think about it, it seems like it happened yesterday." Natalie was not fooled and continued.

"Okay, okay, if you feel very emotional, let's take a short trip to Hangzhou after the concert, anyway, it's so close to Shanghai." Angela shrugged, although she had already cut off from the past , she still sighed in a subtle voice in her heart.

"That's a good suggestion. By the way, you can go to the scene of the crime." Natalie nodded and said seriously.

"The crime... the scene of the crime?!" Angela's forehead jumped, "What are you talking about, Nat?"

"Isn't it? You raped me at the West Lake State Guesthouse." Natalie smacked her lips with a serious expression.

Angela, who was struck by lightning, opened her mouth wide and looked at the other party in disbelief. This...is this what Nat should say? !

"What? Did I say something wrong?" Natalie seemed to see what she wanted to say, and asked with her eyes bent.

"You...how do you...how can you..." Angela stammered, not knowing what to say, thinking about the past between her parents for no reason, this...is this a family inheritance?

"Don't like that word? So how about rape? Oh no, I was conscious then. How about seduction?"

"Enough, Nat!" Angela growled angrily, "You have to know...you have to know that I..."

Although I wanted to use my situation at the time to emphasize the unpredictability of my behavior, the problem was that she couldn't be confident in front of Natalie because of her relationship with Kate and Jessica at the time.

The two of them didn't speak anymore, they just looked at each other. After a while, Natalie shrugged: "Anyway, it was because you were so helpless at that time that you easily tied me by your side. Didn't break free."

Although she felt that Natalie was a little messy, Angela didn't say it out, and smiled after sighing: "Great, I didn't expect such a powerful effect, it seems that I should tie you up even tighter point."

"You don't need to do it, I can do it myself." Natalie said teasingly and self-deprecatingly.Then she moved closer and said through gnashing of teeth in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Since you can't break free, then I'll hold you firmly so that you don't even try to break free!"

Angela opened her mouth but said nothing, but a clear smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she understood what Natalie meant.Just like in the open-air hot spring in Hokkaido, Kate told her why she always likes to "ravage" her under her body, only in this way can she feel that she belongs to her completely.Jesse and Liv are also telling her this in their own ways, and it can be expected that in the near future, others will tell her this in their own way.

There was a burst of warmth in my heart, followed by a burst of sadness. The choice of one of seven multiple-choice questions was not so easy to do.

"If this wasn't the rehearsal site, I would definitely hold you in my arms." Green eyes stared at Natalie.

"Don't think about it, you promised me that you are mine in Shanghai!" Natalie showed a playful smile.

Angela was slightly taken aback, and couldn't help showing a weird smile. Fortunately, Natalie immediately changed the subject: "By the way, this year's Oscars are really chaotic, but it's also quite interesting, and it's even more interesting if you're there gone."

"Interesting? Maybe..." Angela said with a smile after thinking about it.

The 78th Oscar was grandly held at the Kodak Theater on March 2006, 3. While the media competed to report, they also expressed their celebrations in various ways, because——

"This is the first time since 94 that Angela Mason has not been nominated for an Oscar!"

Indeed, in the past, no matter what, at least every year was shortlisted for the best screenwriter. Only this year or last year, no matter whether it was director, screenwriter, soundtrack or other things, there were no nominations. How can this not make people feel happy.

Even after Spielberg raised the best director's statuette for the third time, he thanked everyone and added at the end: "Oh, by the way, I also want to thank Miss Angela, thank you very much."

The whole place laughed.

However, he really has to thank Angela for being able to win the best director. It is precisely because of the absence of "Brokeback Mountain" and "Crash" that the whole Oscar is in chaos. The work is not particularly amazing, so although "Munich" is one of the few money-losing films for Spielberg, it allowed him to win the Oscar for Best Director for the third time.

What is surprising is that Charlize Theron won the best actress in this year's Oscar for "The North". What's more interesting is that this movie was invested by Pixar, so Angela had to lament the wonder of fate.

"Don't worry, honey, there's a movie in the works, I can start it after I'm busy with the concert, I can't make it too easy for these guys." Angela said jokingly.

Natalie raised her eyebrows in surprise, she thought for a while and was about to say something when an assistant came over suddenly: "Miss Angela, there is a Mr. Jiang who wants to see you, he said he is your friend. "

"Oh, yes, we have an appointment, let him come in." Angela nodded.

Soon, a tall, rough man came over led by his assistant.

"Hey, look who's here." Angela stood up with a smile and opened her arms. She doesn't know many people in China, and even fewer people with the surname Jiang.

"I haven't seen you for almost a year, and you have become even more beautiful." Jiang Wen laughed.

"You have gained a lot of weight, and your figure is out of shape." Angela patted the other party's arm with a joke.

"How is it possible? There must be something wrong with your eyesight. You must know that I lost dozens of catties for that movie of yours, and I haven't seen you for more than a year. I must have read it wrong." Jiang Wen said jokingly.

"Dozens of catties, why don't you exaggerate a little bit, say it is several hundred catties." Angela raised her eyebrows.

"That's not okay, you have to be kind, and if you say it's a few hundred catties, then it's not okay for me to blackmail you?" Jiang Wen's serious look made Angela burst out laughing, and there were several Chinese employees who laughed at the same time. Everyone is talking in Chinese.

"By the way, have you changed your assistant?" Jiang Wen looked at Natalie who had gone far away at this time. "To be honest, you should have changed a long time ago. It turns out that the cold one has no popularity at all, so it doesn't look right."

"Are you here to see me or to criticize my assistant?" Angela blinked. "You know, Lily is still my personal assistant. The one just now was my friend."

"This..." Jiang Wen stroked his chin, "By the way, the weather is pretty good today."

"It's really good," Angela suppressed a smile. "Otherwise we would not have chosen to rehearse today."

"I believe the weather will be so good on the official start day." Jiang Wen shook his head, "To be honest, I was really surprised to hear that you were going to come to Shanghai for a concert. Although I knew you could do everything, I didn't listen to you after all. You have sung, and... you also created "The Peacock Flies to the Southeast", which is really incredible, this time I want to hear you sing with my own ears no matter what."

The blush flickered from Angela's face, but then she regained her composure: "So you've already bought the tickets?"

"Of course, VIP seats." Jiang Wen laughed a little smugly, and then said after thinking of something: "By the way, your Shanghai concert must be better than the Tokyo concert no matter what."

"I didn't expect you to say that." Angela shrugged a little funny.

"Lian? How did you think that?" Jiang Wen scratched his head strangely.

"When I'm resting, I'll look online, English or Chinese," Angela couldn't help but twitch her mouth as she thought about it, "They argued very fiercely, so sometimes I feel... Chinese netizens are probably the most impulsive A group of people."

"I heard that her new song at the Tokyo concert was actually sung in Japanese, so the new song at the Shanghai concert is also in Chinese! Doesn't she like China very much, how can she hold a concert in China without releasing a new song in Chinese? Especially the Japanese new song was released before." This is a well-known post, followed by dozens of pages, all discussing what kind of new song Angela might release.

If someone dares to say something like "Why does Angela have to release a new Chinese song", they will be sprayed all over the place immediately, and some even claim that if there is no new Chinese song at the concert, then they will boycott Angela in the future. People can't laugh or cry.

In fact, the whole of her concert and new songs have been divided into two groups. One group says that there must be new Chinese songs, otherwise it will hurt the feelings of the Chinese people, and they will boycott them in the future; while the other group says that there must be new Chinese songs. For new songs in Chinese, Angela still sings English songs best. It is her freedom to release new songs in Japanese.

In short, the quarrel was so fierce that everything could be contacted, and the debate on the Internet would never have a result, and it would never be able to convince the other party, so it turned into confrontation in the end.

"Have you...didn't try to register an account to speak?" Jiang Wen asked half-jokingly after listening to her story.

"Why not?" Angela sighed, "I purposely used my name to register for an ID, and then posted a post saying that there would definitely be new Chinese songs, and it would definitely make the concert uniquely exciting, but the result..."

She ground her teeth, those things were both familiar and strange, she thought she would never see them again in this life.

"What was the result?" Jiang Wen, who was aroused by his curiosity, asked.

"What else can I do, I was scolded bloody." Angela spread her hands helplessly.

Jiang Wen couldn't help laughing out loud, causing the surrounding employees to look sideways.

"Okay, don't worry, they are like this." After laughing, Jiang Wen shook his head and said. "On the Internet, you can talk casually and don't have to be responsible, so everyone is very frightened—oh, the meaning of frivolity is..."

"I know what Deser means," Angela interrupted, "There's no need to explain."

"You know? Good guy, amazing!" Jiang Wen gave a thumbs up, and then said comfortingly: "In short, don't take those things to heart, most of them are guys who are dissatisfied with reality and have no way to vent, just treat them as air Yes. You, a big American star and rich man, do you still have the same knowledge as these people?"

Although he said this on his mouth, there was a bit of contempt and disdain in his tone.Jiang Wen's current popularity can be regarded as one of the best in China. Not to mention being shortlisted for the Palme d'Or and winning the Best Actor with "The Devil Is Coming", Lao Mouzi and Chen Kaige also have some weight in the three major European film festivals, but The gold content of Oscar—or the gold content of Oscar in the hearts of ordinary Chinese people is the highest.

It is conceivable that Jiang Wen, who was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor as a mainland Chinese citizen, is very popular among ordinary Chinese with a strong Oscar plot.

As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. Once someone becomes a big star, there will be a lot of guys who claim to have a lot of inside information but are waving gossip flags here and there on the Internet. , When the heat is enough, he will criticize it, and the tone is similar to that of some "conscientious young historians".

Although there is still a gap between those guys now in terms of environment and ability compared to a few years later, it is enough to make something happen. Although Angela doesn't know much, she knows that someone has linked Jiang Wen's ex-wife and current girlfriend. Talking nonsense, implying that Jiang Wen is a playful and irresponsible man, and she even saw someone swearing in a post that Angela had an affair with Jiang Wen when she was filming "Rabe's Diary" in Shanghai!

It was a dumbfounding moment, and for a moment Angela really wanted to sue this guy for defamation.

"That's right, just treat them as air, and if you really care about them, they will be proud." Angela comforted Jiang Wen in turn, when another assistant ran over: "Miss Angela, new The props are ready.

"Very well, tell them I'll be here soon." Angela nodded, then looked at Jiang Wen: "Okay, I'm going to continue the rehearsal, if you want to know some interesting or surprising links in advance, just stay , if you want to keep the surprise..."

"I choose to keep the surprise," Jiang Wen smiled and raised his hand, "I'm leaving right now, you're busy with your own time."

After he waved goodbye, he turned around and walked out. After a long walk, he turned around and waved to Angela.

Angela watched him leave before walking to the stage that was built. While greeting the surrounding employees, she moved her body and wanted to stretch out as soon as possible.

Since she said that the pattern of each concert will be different, naturally she will not break her promise, even if the price she pays is that the rehearsal for each concert will be very hard.If it wasn't for the completion of the two new Chinese-style songs, maybe she would plagiarize the two songs because of those inexplicable comments on the Internet.

I've been preparing for this concert for a long time, I hope your jaws don't drop to the ground when the time comes.Angela hummed in her stomach and said so.
