Chapter 430 Trip to Tokyo
Chapter 430 Trip to Tokyo
Although Angela vowed to spend time with her family before returning to school, it is a pity that the plan will never change quickly. After "The Truman Show" started to go on track as she expected and finished the commercial, Japan on the Pacific side There was news that "The Grudge" was about to start, and she had to find time to go to Tokyo again.
Although Angela has been in contact with the Japanese side through emails and phone calls, because the script was delivered before Christmas last year, most of the things, including negotiations, were handed over to the film department. To understand the progress, I thought it would start at least at the end of February, but I didn't expect it to be so soon.Although her parents expressed their understanding, Angela was still very depressed about it. Fortunately, she stayed with her family for two days before receiving the news, so she took Sarah and a few people who had already chosen The American actor boarded a plane to Tokyo.
"I hate flying for a long time. It feels too bad." Angela, who woke up from a coma, rubbed her face and muttered in a low voice, looking at the sunlight coming in from other windows.
"Because of jet lag?" Kate, who was sitting next to her and was already awake and reading a magazine, turned her head with a smile.
"Almost." Angela shrugged, took a look at Kate, then held her hand and said with a smile: "But it's not so bad with you by my side, it seems that it's wise to drive Sparrow to the business class." choose."
"Are you so happy to drive your agent to the back?" Kate said jokingly.
"I can't say that, I'm just generally happy when he's sitting next to you, but I'm much happier when you're sitting by your side, you two are different," Angela made a face, "Okay, I'll go and see later Look at them."
After asking the stewardess for a warm wet towel to wipe her face to relieve her fatigue, Angela unbuckled her seat belt and walked to the back. Although it doesn't matter to book another first-class seat for Sparrow, she doesn't want to have to. I was listening to the private conversation between myself and Kate, so Mr. Manager should feel wronged, besides, the business class is not bad.
Affected by her, Sparrow was also taking a nap wearing a black blindfold at this time, while the two bodyguards were taking turns to rest, but several actors and their assistants were chatting in low voices.
"It seems that you guys had a very speculative conversation." Angela leaned on the back of the seat and looked at the man and woman in front of her with a smile, and raised her hands after they turned their eyes away: "If I'm bothering you, I am sorry."
"Of course not. In fact, Sarah and I just talked about you." Sitting by the window, the gentle man with a face that all Americans would like smiled. He was the first to destroy the earth in 96. In the "Independence Day" of President Bill Pullman, who is flying a fighter plane to face aliens, Angela only appointed Sarah as the heroine, and Bruce was responsible for the other roles. Bruce just met Pullman again and invited him to play the role. a small role.
"Talking about me?" Angela looked at Herman and then at Sarah, "Let me guess, she will probably say..."
"Don't make unnecessary guesses, Angie." Sarah raised her head and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, but there seemed to be something hidden in the dissatisfaction, and Angela, who knew it well, glanced at Pullman, then bent down In Sarah's ear, she teased in the lowest voice: "Don't do this, I just want to help Mina take care of her baby."
As if being stung by a scorpion, Sarah leaned back and glared at Angela, but Angela still had a smile on her face, and seemed to ignore her anger at all, until the cockpit chief came over and said, "You can go back!" In your place, Miss Mason, we will reach Tokyo in half an hour."
"Of course, I'll be right back." Angela nodded with a smile, winked at Sarah again and turned to leave.
But a few seconds later Sarah caught up, grabbed Angela and asked for a cabin from the flight attendant, then stared at her with her arms folded and frowning: "Maybe you're just joking, but I don't think it's funny .”
Sarah's face was full of anger: "You know, Angie, you are like this...you are like this...you are like this...it bothers me! We are just...drunk unconscious behavior, not what you imagined ...that way!"
"Ah... oh... um..." Angela rubbed her chin and looked at Sarah for a long while, and then she nodded earnestly after the other party got a little restless: "Okay, I get it, if I offended you before ,I apologize."
Sarah was obviously relieved, pointed to the aisle and said, "Then... I'll go back."
"Of course, we're almost there." Angela spread her hands and watched Sarah leave before returning to the first-class cabin with a smack of her lips.
"Did something interesting happen?" Kate, who was watching a movie, noticed that Angela, who had returned to her seat, was full of surprise and snickering, and couldn't help but take off her earphones and asked curiously.
"It's really interesting, but I'm not sure what it is yet, so I won't tell you for the time being." Angela shrugged with a smile. During the private conversation with Sarah just now, she saw some clues.
Why is Sarah so angry?And underneath this anger is a mask of uneasiness.Angela rubbed her chin, and after rubbing her teeth on her lips, she decided not to worry about it for the time being, if it was as she guessed...hehe...
At 6:[-] p.m., under the faint afterglow of the sun sinking into the sea level, the plane finally landed slowly at Narita Airport in Chiba Prefecture, southeast of Tokyo. The only person who came to greet them was Sam Rains, the person in charge of the film department who came over early. In addition, there is also the general manager of Kadokawa Pictures, Miura Takeshi, but at the same time, there are a large number of guys in black suits who can be recognized as bodyguards at a glance.
Angela was still puzzled at first, but she immediately understood when she came to the departure hall. Although it is not a crowded place, it can be seen at a glance that the exit is tightly blocked by young men and women. When she appeared, she immediately There were screams and yells, accompanied by the snapping flashes of reporters.
Although they seemed very excited, it's a pity that they are half-baked at English, and there are a few Japanese pronunciations mixed in, or they are simply Japanese, so confusing that Angela can't understand at all. You don’t need to guess what to shout, and they also drowned out the voices of the surrounding reporters who speak English well, so although Angela is rolling her eyes in her heart, and keeps complaining that she forgot to say hello to the Japanese side, on the surface she still maintains Smiling and waving to the screaming young men, he ignored the reporters' questions and walked out under the escort of bodyguards.
When she got out of the airport and saw the car that picked her up, Angela was stunned again. It turned out to be a stretched Rolls-Royce!With such a big fanfare, I'm afraid that others will not know that she has come to Japan?Chased by reporters and fans, they came all the way to the Garden Hyatt Hotel in Shinjuku, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after entering the presidential suite.
"Mr. Miura, I think you have misunderstood something." Angela asked immediately after Miura knocked on the door and came in. The smile froze on the face of the other party after hearing the translation clearly.
"I don't know what dissatisfaction Ms. Mason has. We must correct it immediately." Go Miura bowed 90 degrees in fear and trepidation. Angela couldn't help being stunned. Faced with this situation, it is not easy to put on airs. After thinking about it, I said: "I want to remind Mr. Miura that I came to Tokyo neither for promotion nor for a concert, but for the movie "The Grudge". I only have a few days and I don't want to be disturbed by anything else!"
Miura Tsuyoshi is also a person with a flexible mind. After hearing the translation, he immediately understood, so he nodded and replied: "I will notify the person in charge of the public relations department to reject all forms of interviews, advertisements, etc."
"Then that's it." Angela nodded and didn't say anything more. Anyway, her trip to Tokyo will be published in the newspaper tomorrow, so it's pointless to entangle with it. It's a pity that she originally planned to take a good stroll in Tokyo.
After Miura left, Angela looked at her manager again, and Sparrow immediately raised his right hand: "I will cooperate with them."
"That's the best." Angela nodded, but quickly frowned again: "Since Kadokawa Yinghua clearly wants to use me to build momentum for them, is it true that I will be obedient just because of a word from me?"
"It's not surprising," Sparrow explained to her, "Kadokawa Pictures is a film company under the Kadokawa Group, and it has always been run by Kadokawa Haruki, the eldest son of the Kadokawa Group. This person is said to be an open-minded gentleman when he was young. On the contrary, he has an art-oriented and crazy temperament. He has worked as a producer, actor and even a director. It is said that he has produced many excellent movies. It was only in 93 that he was arrested and imprisoned due to a drug scandal, which caused Kadokawa Yinghua to withdraw from the film industry. , but after he was released from prison in 97, he immediately began to plan a comeback. Last year's "Midnight Ring" made them re-launch their brand, and they naturally want to further stabilize it. In addition, cooperating with us is likely to allow them to enter the US market. So I will never disobey you."
Angela noticed that at the beginning of "Excellent Movie", Sparrow's tone was slightly mocking. At first, she was a little puzzled, but she soon understood, but she didn't say much, just summed it up: " Simply put, they want something from me, is that right?"
"You can say that." Sparrow nodded, and got up to leave without doing anything else.
And Angela sighed softly after crossing her arms and thinking for a few seconds. Kate, who had been sitting beside her silently before speaking, suddenly said: "Don't you think Haruki Kadokawa's experience is very similar to yours?" looks like?"
Angela was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, she felt a chill, followed by all the ups and downs in her heart, and then glared at Kate fiercely: "You mean that I may go to jail because of a drug scandal in the future?!"
"Hmm..." Kate rolled her eyes and got up immediately, "I didn't say anything."
Angela immediately rushed over with all her teeth and claws: "Don't even try to change the subject! You will have to pay the price if you dare to say that!"
