Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 543

After the issue of the main actors is completely settled, Angela no longer has to worry about the crew's preparations. Anyway, other actors and arranging for Heath, Jack, and Sarah to learn about cowboy life can be handed over to the film department.As for the work of pondering the life and communication between gay men, there is no need to remind Heath and Jack to do it too.These are all must-haves if you want to be a great actor.

For some considerations, Angela asked them to submit their views on the characters in the book every once in a while, not limited to length but must have something to say, so that she can ensure that Heath and Jack are acting according to their own opinions. Thinking about the characters.Of course, these are all things for later, Angela is currently busy with another embarrassing and important thing - the script writing of "Brokeback Mountain".

Because she was forced to make "Brokeback Mountain" by the situation, even though she had written an outline plus a partial beginning and ending, it was too rough and could only be used as a reference.Angela is sure to finish the script within a month, the prerequisite is to stay quietly in the room and go all out.

But look at what she has done since throwing this blockbuster to divert the attention of the reporters, cameo in "The Matrix", appease her lover, and fool those young people to go crazy with her - fool Heath and the others At the time, I didn't even have the first draft of the script, so I was bluffing and deceiving with the original novel.

So now she has to work overtime to start drafting, can't the actors just hold the novel when trying to figure out the role?If it can be done like this, there is no need to recreate the novel if it is to be adapted into a movie in the future.

"I really don't have time these days, so let's try another day for now, Kate," Angela said with the phone tucked between her shoulders while typing words on the keyboard, "You must know that I not only have to get the script out, but I also have to find time to figure out my new one. Character. My dear, if you don’t want to be teased by me after the boot, then remember to think more about your character during the break.”

Unable to be refuted by the other party, she quickly turned off the phone and threw it aside triumphantly.

"It's great, just change the name." Alizee, who handed over a stack of materials, gave a thumbs up.

"Please, Lily, don't be like this, okay?" Angela, who was happy just now, suddenly became sad, and it was even more ironic to say such words with a deadpan face.

What the hell happened to Lily?The girl thought gloomily, ever since she helped to select Michelle Williams' information that day, Alizee always stabbed her a few words from time to time.Although she was like this before, the frequency now is a bit too fast, right?And the topic has always been between her and the three lovers.

"The truth always hurts." Alizee shrugged, "Almost everything you want is here, call me if you need it."

"Maybe the last two sentences are different!" Angela wanted to defend herself, but the girl left the room without looking back.She could only roll her eyes and let out a strange cry, and buried her head on the table, inserting her fingers into her hair and scratching.

Angela had just turned off Jessica's date five minutes before Kate's call.And it was also because she was busy with the manuscript that Alizee ridiculed her "just change her name."

"Damn it!" Angela yelled angrily after trying to type a few words on the keyboard, but still couldn't concentrate.If she does this again, I will not be polite!The girl thought so.

Of course, Angela was just thinking about it.She always has a guilty pity for Alizee, which is different from Lindsay who is closer to Annie, but has more guilt than Annie.So she tolerated Alizee's picky behavior very much.

"But it doesn't mean you can endure it forever! Human patience is limited!" Angela suddenly raised her head and howled, then quickly covered her mouth and looked around nervously.

Fortunately, no one came in.The girl breathed a sigh of relief.But what I said is right, I can't let Lily think like this all the time... Just say whatever you think, it's embarrassing for me.

So what lesson should I teach her?Angela grinned and squeezed her fist, how about dealing with Lily the same way she dealt with Manny?Although hers isn't as big as Manny's, it looks pretty good in the hand...

Damn it!What are you thinking!The girl rolled her eyes and waved her hands, as if she wanted to drive this absurd thought out of her head.However, there is still no writing status, Angela simply got up and stretched twice, and then sat down in front of the piano.

A piece of "To Alice" flowed out from the fingers immediately, but the player who played it had an uneasiness deep in his heart, so the song was obviously played a little faster.Angela knew it too, but instead of making adjustments, she played the entire piece in one breath.

Then he sighed and closed the piano lid.

Maybe, I can use a roundabout way?She suddenly thought so.Like testing Jesse through Lindsay or Vivi?Or let Manny ask Nat?But Lindsay is still a kid, and Manny's position seems to be biased towards Nat...well, I have to draw them to her side first...but what about Kate?Rachel?Do not be silly!

Angela felt a pain in her head, when Annie knocked on the door and came in: "Angie, time."

"Ah? Oh, sorry, I was so engrossed in thinking about things that I didn't pay attention to the time." Angela immediately reacted, "Please tell mom, I'll pack up and come down right away."

Annie nodded and was about to leave. After walking two steps, she turned her head and looked at Angela hesitantly: "Angie, I..."

"What's wrong?" Angela, who was taking off her shirt, stopped her movements immediately when she saw her like this.

"It's nothing," Annie smiled, "Lily has been a little..."

She was still thinking about her words, but Angela waved her hand disapprovingly: "It's nothing, Anne. You know, I have always regarded you and her as sisters, although Lily did go a little too far, but it's not a big deal things."

After a pause, the girl came to Annie in a few steps, raised her eyebrows and deliberately pretended to be vicious: "However, you can tell her that if one day I can't bear it anymore, I will definitely take revenge like a storm!"

"Hmm..." Annie thought for a while, "Is this an ultimatum?"

"I think it might be better to take it as consolation." Angela raised her chin pretending to be arrogant.

"Okay, I will convey it for you." Annie said, pointing to the time, turned and left.

Angela shrugged and continued changing clothes in front of the mirror.It's strange, although Annie often defends Lily, it's the first time she came to me so directly, what happened?The girl shook her head, then put the thought aside.

After changing into a well-fitting long dress, Angela left the bedroom, and before she went downstairs, she heard Willie's criticism coming up: "This is wrong in the first place, fighting is rude!"

"Could it be that if I don't beat him, he won't beat me?" followed by Ike's unconvinced rebuttal.

"Hey, are you going to argue about this issue for the rest of your life?" Angela shook her head funny and walked down.

Three days ago, the principal of the private elementary school where the two little guys are currently studying invited their mother over because Ike let go of two children in the same grade as him in the school!As for the reason, according to Ike's words, those two guys wanted to bully him because they were taller, but after being patient, he made a move-knocking those two guys to the ground with ease.Of course, Angela didn't know what the truth was, because she wasn't there after all.

Father and mother have completely different attitudes towards this matter. The father thinks it is normal for children to fight.He even used himself as an example, saying that when he was seven or eight years old, he had a lot of fights with Brian.Although the mother was noncommittal to the father's words, she asked Jennifer to supervise Ike to review the family etiquette again.

It was a terrible thing. Although Angela expressed sympathy for her younger brother in her heart, she had to pretend that she didn't see anything after the little guy cast a look for help.She didn't want to tease her mother's beard at this time. If her mother said, "Chrissy, as a sister, how about showing Ike", it would be a tragedy.

Therefore, the only thing Angela can do is to find time to comfort the little guy. Although she agrees with her father, Ike has gone too far.It doesn't matter if I put the two guys over with my skills, but I still ride from one end of the corridor to the other on the body of a person-this is why my mother is angry.

But the most interesting thing is that these days, Willie wants to pretend to be a sister in front of Ike at any time these days.It's a pity that Ike is no longer the follower he was a few years ago. He not only argues with Willy, but if he is forced to rush, he will say aggrievedly: "It's a few seconds earlier than me soon." It really makes people laugh.

"Okay, stop arguing, otherwise I won't talk to you until the summer vacation!" Angela waved her hand, and immediately blocked the words of the two little guys who were scrambling to comment.

Looking at the half-wronged younger siblings, Angela smiled and knelt down and hugged the two little guys into her arms, then kissed each of them on the cheeks: "Isn't it great now?"

Ike is still not doing well, but Willie pouted first: "My sister is biased now, and she is facing Ike just like my mother."

Angela glared at her amusedly and angrily, and suddenly leaned over and kissed Willy's cheek again.This time, it wasn't like before, it was just a touch and go, but the kiss was sizzling, as if it wanted to kiss Willy's face to death.In the end, Angela simply changed from kissing to biting, and at the same time smeared the little guy's face with saliva, which made Willie scream.

Finally, Angela let go of her sister, and ran away with a smile.Willie naturally chased after him unwillingly, and Ike also joined in immediately, and there was a lot of laughter in the hall.

It's nice to have family around and oh my dear brothers and sisters I hope you never grow up.

The chase ended with the arrival of his parents. Although Ike was being punished these days, his mother didn't say much, and the family came to the restaurant in harmony.

Although it is common for the whole family to have dinner together, it still makes people feel warm every time.Every time at this time, even the lively and active little ones would sit in their seats well-even though Angela knew more about the power of mothers-even the conversations during the dinner were soft-spoken.

"I don't have any other work right now, just busy with the script of "Brokeback Mountain" and a new movie role. As for the music side, I haven't negotiated with Hollywood Records yet." Angela said with a smile while pulling the chicken on the plate .

In fact, it is not a matter of whether it has been negotiated or not, but that both parties are hesitating.From the perspective of the record company, it is still necessary to retain Angela.Even though the C&B group is so popular now, it is already recognized as the number one idol girl group in the United States; even if the newcomer Avril Lavigne who just debuted has shocked everyone, everyone thinks that her future is immeasurable.

The former can completely replace Angela as the company's signature, and the latter has the same possibility, but the problem is that Angela is not just a famous pop singer!Aside from other things, how many people like her can handle 90% of the lyrics and music of their released songs since their debut?Even before the 43rd Grammy Awards, Angela not only lost the opportunity to win the best single six times, but also got nothing for the six nominations, but she still couldn't hide the light of the five consecutive wins.

Letting go of a singer, songwriter, producer like that?Unless the company's CEO's brain burns out.But the problem is that everyone knows Angela's laziness, think about what she has done in the past few years.If you continue to sign the contract, the benefits will be huge and the troubles will not be small. Besides, only God knows whether Miss Genius will take this opportunity to claim more and greater rights.

In fact, Angela's delay in negotiating with the record company was precisely because of this aspect.This year looks like it will be busy again and with the increasing popularity of mp3s and the release of ipods, the release model of songs will have to change, and she will have to maintain a certain influence in all aspects before accomplishing her goals.

"You seem to have too much work, my dear," my mother reminded, "Think about it, director, actor, singer, your energy is always limited. The result of trying to do everything well is likely to be , can’t do everything well.”

Angela couldn't help laughing bitterly in her stomach, she knew that her mother's words meant something else.

"I know, Mom, can you give me time?" Angela said with a soft sigh.

In terms of career, she has a reason to grasp it, but emotionally?

"By the way, Chris," my father changed the subject at this moment, "Your 21st birthday will be in a few days. How do you plan to celebrate? You should know that this is as memorable as your 18th birthday."

"Yeah, many things that were illegal in the past can become legal after the 21st birthday," Angela curled her lips, and then showed a smirk: "How about this, Dad, I'll ask some friends to undress How about a dance club celebration?"

The father opened his eyes wide in astonishment, and laughed out loud with Haha, while the mother shouted emphatically, "Kris!"

"Okay, Mom, I'm just joking." Angela stuck out her tongue in her heart and quickly raised her hands. To be honest, she suddenly had the intention of going to a strip club to celebrate her 21st birthday.

However, Willie and Ike's subsequent words immediately made her put away this absurd idea: "Sister, what is a strip club?"

"Well...it's nothing." Facing the two curious babies, Angela stuck out her tongue again in her heart, and then changed the subject under her mother's slightly stern gaze: "I'm just thinking about who to invite. "

Speaking of this, her heart suddenly moved, and a thought suddenly popped up, maybe this is an opportunity...

"It's still up to you to draw up the list, I just want to ask..." The father was talking when he heard his daughter suddenly say a word: "New York!"

"Sorry, Chris, what are you talking about?" Father asked incomprehensibly.

"I mean... I can... I want to..." Angela turned her head quickly, thinking about what might happen then and the words and excuses she should use now, "I want to... celebrate my birthday in New York 21st birthday."

"New York?" The parents couldn't help but look at each other.

"Yes, New York. Most of the time, birthday parties are held in Los Angeles, and occasionally in London. There are almost no New York parties. If it weren't for studying at Harvard the year before last, I would definitely hold a party in Los Angeles." Angela said in one breath Out, "And, Grandpa would love me to spend my 21st birthday in New York."

After a few minutes of silence, father and mother exchanged glances and nodded to her: "Well, honey, you have the right to decide where to celebrate your birthday. But... I want to remind you."

A rare smirk appeared on the father's face: "The guest list may expand by three or four times."

"Why?" Angela asked strangely, but her father just smiled and didn't answer directly.

The girl immediately reacted, and her pretty face suddenly became bitter: "Can I not do this?"

"You know, Chrissy, this kind of gathering is a good place to socialize," my father put away his smile and shook his head, "even if you hold a party in Los Angeles, unless you plan to celebrate your own in a low-key way from the beginning Birthday. However, if the location is in New York, even if you want to keep a low profile, you have to convince Grandpa."

"Dad!" Angela emphasized her tone, and her father immediately raised his hands.

"I've decided, it's in New York." The girl announced immediately.

"What about us?!" The brothers and sisters suddenly yelled in unison, their faces full of anxiety and dissatisfaction.

"And if Mom and Dad agree, then go to New York together." Angela looked at her mother with a smile.

Mom smiled and didn't say much, but judging from her appearance, she probably wouldn't refuse, which made the two little guys cheer in a low voice.

"Of course, I won't force Dad to go to New York," Angela said, grimacing at her father, and then looked at her mother after her father shook his head and smiled wryly, "but Mom must attend."

"Okay, okay, I will." Mother nodded with a smile.

Done!Hurry back to the room and think about what to do when the time comes, don't make any mistakes...

But why is there always an inexplicable uneasiness?
