Chapter 516 Homecoming
Chapter 516 Homecoming
"Your water and tablets, Miss Angela." The stewardess came over with a stainless steel plate, on which was a glass of slightly steaming water and a small white tablet.
"Thank you." Angela, who was staring at the laptop screen in a daze, came back to her senses, smiled at the stewardess, took the cup and threw the bubble tablet into the water, and continued to be dazed as she watched the bubbles rise.
After an unknown amount of time, Sparrow's voice sounded: "How is it? If there is no problem, I will go to rest."
He followed him and sat down next to Angela, and when he saw her in a trance, he suddenly showed a look of surprise: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Angela, who came back to her senses again, forced a smile, stretched out her hand and rubbed her temples, "My head hurts, probably because I drank too much wine last night and played crazy, so..."
She raised her hands and circled around as if she didn't intend to talk more, so she changed the subject and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Hmm..." Sparrow smiled wryly, and pointed to her computer screen.
"Ah? Oh, sorry..." Angela came to her senses immediately, and quickly glanced at her notebook for a few moments: "The filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" has already started? Both Bruckheimer and Verbinski are full of praise for Keira? Let me just say, she's a good fit... "Transformers" is not considered for production at the moment, "Lord of the Rings" will be released by the end of next year at the latest, and I bet the CG effects will be very good. In this way, McKinley and the others are working on the budget I won’t be shy when it comes to time.”
She continued to pull down the icon file with her fingers: "Iron Man is also not considered for the time being. I know that the box office of "X-Men" is very good, and last year's "Spider-Man" is also quite popular. Big film companies want to take the opportunity to put superheroes on the screen and make a profit. But the problem is that not all superheroes can make money. I heard that "Daredevil", "Fantastic Four" and " Adaptations such as The Hulk and The Punisher have been put on the agenda by major film companies. If there are no particularly attractive highlights, it will become an embarrassing existence.
Instead of rushing to put "Iron Man" on the screen, it is better to make the "X-Men" trilogy more sophisticated, and it is best to make "X-Men" a brand.You know, there are many X-Men, and each of the protagonists can be used to make a movie alone. "
Hearing this, Sparrow couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "No wonder you have been advocating for the right to adapt "X-Men"."
"Having said that, it depends on the production level. If the audience doesn't buy it, even if they gather them together to shoot a new "X-Men", no one will watch it." Angela waved her hand indifferently, and changed the topic again. Quoted back: "However, I suggest that the production date of "Iron Man" is better delayed to six or seven years later."
Sparrow didn't say anything, but raised his legs and changed into a more comfortable position, waiting for the girl's next words.
"As I said before, because of the advancement of CG technology, it is possible to put a large number of superheroes on the screen. Everyone wants to take this opportunity to get a share. If you think about it carefully, you will find that there are many popular superheroes. The similarities, the most prominent is the duality - they have two different identities at the same time, and people around them don't know they are superheroes when they are small people. It's like the script I wrote for Lindsay The concept proposed is the same, they are ordinary people, but they will become different existences whenever there is a need." Angela smiled and spread her hands, "Everyone likes this kind of movie that can be substituted into themselves, so "Spider-Man" with its mediocre high school kid Peter Parker is more popular than "X-Men" with its plethora of characters."
Speaking of this, she paused before opening her mouth again: "It's just that when more and more similar superheroes appear, the audience will definitely feel aesthetic fatigue. But at this time, when everyone is tired of not having villains When there is an ordinary superhero who follows the rules, and there is an unruly, rebellious, high-profile alternative superhero who declares that I am a superhero, I believe it will definitely catch the attention of the first time, then..."
Angela shrugged, and the following words were self-evident.After thinking for a moment, Sparrow nodded and shook his head noncommittally.Angela knew what he meant. Although what she said made sense, it was still a bit general, and the reason why "Iron Man" was able to break out from the siege of many superheroes and give a boost to the comic book movie was only one of the reasons mentioned earlier. one.You know, Tony Tuckers is a wild and unrestrained nerd at the same time!
Well, let's not talk about this, it is enough for her to write a paper if there is a real discussion.Angela cleared her throat: "Tell these words to McKinley and Ed. If you have any questions, I can discuss them face to face. As for the others..."
She glanced at the computer screen: ""Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" basically just needs to let me understand the situation every once in a while. Anyway, I will visit Joe every year when I return to London, and there will be plenty of opportunities to torture her... …
She bit down the word "torture" very hard, and with that hilarious laughter, Sparrow next to him couldn't help but rolled his eyes and then coughed lightly.Angela, who came to her senses, blushed, her embarrassment flashed away, and then she became nonchalant again: "Okay, let's see what else... I got the film adaptation rights of "Bourne's Identity" gone?"
This news made her a little pleasantly surprised, and then became depressed again. Although she had vowed to write the movie script by herself when Sparrow was trying to find a way in the first half of the year, she still had a lot of things to do .Among other things, the script of "The Devil's Head" is only half written, and the plan is to finish it by the end of the year.
"Well, I'll make an outline first, and then ask other screenwriters to add details. If there are any problems, I'll raise them and revise them after discussion." Angela said after thinking about it.This can greatly save her energy, and if it goes well, many scripts can be operated in this way in the future.The only thing that has changed is that there will be someone other than Angela's name in the writer's column, which is perfectly acceptable, isn't it?
"No problem," Sparrow wrote down one by one, "and finally?"
"What else?" Angela switched files and then said "Oh", "Let me see... have you got 20% of the equity? Very good, but..."
She raised her head and watched Sparrow raised his hands into fists, his face was full of seriousness: "My request has been stated at the meeting at the beginning of the year, and I must get it no matter what. If not, complain to me later."
"I will convey it." Sparrow nodded and was about to get up, "Then..."
"Wait, Jack." Angela stopped him suddenly, stroked her chin for a few seconds before speaking again: "If you have time, I want you to help me find a manor in Beverly Hills."
"The manor?" Sparrow raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Are you planning to move out?"
"Well, you can't live with your parents for the rest of your life. Many people choose to move out after the age of 16 to show their independence. I should be independent now, right?" Angela shrugged. To be honest, if she could, she would still be independent. I really don't want to move out.Even if there are more than a dozen people in the family manor house, she still feels very empty, and it will be even more empty if she is alone.
Of course, it's impossible to be alone, Anne will be by her side, maybe Lily will be too.In addition, there are maids, bodyguards, etc., and there will also be a dozen people at home, but this is completely different from being with parents.
"About 2000 million to 3000 million is enough. I don't want to build an aquarium at home like my father, although the dolphins are very cute. There are no special requirements, that is, they should not be too far or too close to their parents." Angie La thought about it and said, "Let's talk about other things after reading the specific information."
Even though she didn't want to move out, she had to move out for some things.She really should be independent, the girl said to herself in her heart.
"Okay, I will collect relevant information as soon as possible for you to select." Sparrow nodded, "Then I'm going to rest. If you still feel a headache, you might as well rest for a while, the journey is still very long."
After the manager left, Angela suddenly became depressed again.Damn it, he managed to temporarily forget the matter because of the previous conversation, and his headache brought back his memories.
Angela held her face in one hand and watched the unpredictable clouds outside the plane window under the light of the setting sun or the morning sun, and sighed deeply in her heart.Damn Ilya, damn Vigo, I told them that I can't drink whiskey, but these guys who are afraid of chaos in the world actually...
Well, my fault, I underestimated their curiosity, I should say dislike of whiskey instead of what would be horrible.Angela thought to herself.She couldn't help laughing when she thought of the men who watched her evasively look at her when she woke up this morning, especially the weird-looking Peter.
There shouldn't be any killings or anything like that, and I can still vaguely recall that I was supporting Liv and preparing to leave the party... Thinking of this, Angela frowned, followed by a complicated look.
Although she drank a lot at that time, she could see the maliciousness in Ilya's eyes when he was instigated by Vigo and the others and when he handed the wine glass, and she knew the color and smell of whiskey, but she still chose drink it.So, she actually wanted to use this method to evade Liv's request.
It's just that instead of escaping, I may let something slide further into an unpredictable direction.Angela couldn't help but think of Liv's angry and happy look when she woke up this morning.
"You are so hateful, Angie! I can't believe you are this kind of person!" Liv said to her angrily, "I just wanted to have a good chat with you, but you actually... You have let me down too much!"
She curled up in the quilt and hugged the white quilt, exposing most of her body, which was very beautiful in the morning light.Especially when she looks angry but has the corners of her mouth upturned, she really looks like an elf in the forest.
However, such a picture would only make Angela more sad, so she kept silent and listened to Liv scolding herself.Words such as "I can't wait as soon as I enter the door", "I don't think about my feelings at all", "I don't let go after I climax", and so on, if it's just these words, it's fine, but Angela is shocked Trembling is...
"You should be at my mercy, but why am I being controlled by you instead? What do you call me my little elf, I'm so nasty!" Although Liv wrinkled her nose, there was a smile in her blue eyes, obviously interested This title is very emotional, "Be honest, is it because you are drunk?"
"I think...it should be like this," Angela considered the words, "Do you remember what I said? Once I drank whiskey, I seemed to be a different person, and I couldn't remember anything I did or said."
"Can't remember at all?" Liv's face suddenly changed, "You're joking, Angie!"
"I didn't, it's true..." Angela stopped in the middle of her defense, looked at Liv in surprise, and asked carefully after a long while: "I... did I say anything?"
But Li Fu's eyes changed for a long time before she sighed faintly, turned over and crawled on the bed: "It's nothing."
After that, Liv didn't mention what she said last night until the time she sent Angela to the plane, but there was still sadness and stubbornness in that faint smile.
God, can you tell me what I said at that time!Angela, who looked away from the window of the plane, scratched her head vigorously.She suddenly regretted drinking whiskey. If she stays sober, even if she is at a loss, at least this will not happen, right? !Angela, who was already a little unstable on this topic, couldn't help becoming more irritable.
Why?Why do I get drunk when I drink whiskey, and I can't remember what I did or said?she asked herself in her heart.Is it like "Dr. Incarnation", because of drinking whiskey, I have another personality?
Angela couldn't help but rolled her eyes, her associations are really rich.
Forget it, let's go to rest and get a good night's sleep. After waking up, I'm sure I'll be much better.The girl sighed inwardly.Forget it, just forget it, Liv refuses to say that she can't remember, what else can I do?
Angela stood up and walked to the bedroom on the plane, which was about to fly to Boston after a short stop in Los Angeles.The span of the time zone is a bit large, and she will be busy with her studies soon after getting off the plane, so she can only take a few light sleeps to adjust the time difference.Although the effect is not very obvious, at least it is better than nothing.
