Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 371 The Results of the Experiment

For Angela, holding a large-scale concert is really troublesome. It takes a lot of time from rehearsal to the official singing, especially if it takes at least half a year for a national tour. People who are originally "lazy" in music, think It is absolutely impossible for her to use so much energy to run a lap from east to west, and to keep training, rehearsing and dealing with some miscellaneous things!Besides, she has other things to be busy with, and these will take time.

But this time, I have to seriously consider it. Sparrow is right, even if she wants to go behind the scenes, it shouldn’t be now, and she has already considered this issue when she hinted to Disney that it is possible to hold a concert. She really wants to do this In other words, the beginning of next year is the best time, because according to her plan, she will be very busy for several years starting from the second half of next year, and there will be no extra time, so if the possibility was not high before, now it is basically confirmed.

Of course, the specific situation needs to be discussed. Although the SAT test in a few months is no problem, there are three APs that I plan to try next year. She also needs to supervise the post-production work of "The Matrix" and two new scripts. time and energy.

After the fan meeting in Los Angeles, the promotional work for the new album has come to an end for the time being, and the rest is nothing more than interviews and the like. Lovingyou" and "ToMother", which took the country's warm route, also topped the major charts one after another. The record company was naturally rejoiced and Angela also rested at ease, so the girl went to New York again after a lapse of a week.

Amidst the thunderous applause of the audience, the actors on the stage walked to the center again and bowed to the audience. Angela put down her eyes and applauded as well, followed her and Sparrow beside her, and then found the waiter to let her He takes himself backstage.

"Congratulations, my dear, you are really outstanding." After a warm hug with Natalie, Angela did not hesitate to kiss each other's cheek lightly. Although Natalie rolled her eyes, she also kissed back One: "Thank you!"

The two girls both laughed, and then Natalie greeted several leading actors, and pulled Angela out.

"I'm really happy that you can come to my first performance." Natalie held the girl's hand tightly and looked at Angela with a smile. Although the tone was light, the joy and touch in it were self-evident .

"I promised, how can I miss the appointment, and this is your favorite "Anne's Diary"." Angela patted the back of her hand lightly, "Your interpretation is very good, listen to the applause at that time. It was thunderous every time, and how long it took for the curtain call alone, you have at least 70% of the credit for it, and I bet tomorrow's papers will say the same."

"It's really flattering to hear such a compliment." Natalie exaggeratedly exclaimed, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "Actually, as you said, as my favorite story, how could I not go all out."

"Since I'm right, is there any reward?" Angela asked intentionally, and as soon as the words were finished, Natalie came over and touched her lips, then quickly glanced around and vomited after finding no one else She stuck out her tongue and showed a good expression.Angela couldn't help but burst out laughing, and stretched out her hand to gently pinch Natalie's waist.

Natalie stared at her pretendingly before asking again: "Are you going back tomorrow?"

"Of course, we still have to go to school on Monday." Angela nodded and smiled slightly: "However, it's okay to leave a little later tomorrow, so we still have at least one morning, how about shopping, lunch and watching a movie? "

"Want to watch your "Stealing and Kidnapping"?" Natalie blurted out, and Angela couldn't help being stunned and her face changed slightly.

"Stealing and Kidnapping" was released three days ago. Although this week is not over yet, it is estimated that the weekend box office will not exceed 2000 million. The general response from movie fans is that the lines are very interesting.The camera transition is smooth and the soundtrack is good, especially the ending is very surprising: after the three young people played by Sean and the others found nothing, they instructed the girl played by Jordana to dispose of the fake gems and found the old man. Only then did they realize that the gems were real, so they hurried out to catch up with the note left by Timmy the dog. At this time, Xiao Qiao had already come to the small river. As a woman, she always liked these shiny things—even though It is fake, so I have been hesitating whether to throw it away.But in the end, she was determined to throw it down, but she didn't throw it into the river, so she went down to pick it up again and began to hesitate, interspersed with scenes of Sean and the others rushing over, and finally fixed on Xiao Qiao preparing to raise her hand. When he held his hand, a picture of three other figures appeared in the distance behind him.

From this suspenseful ending, it can be seen that Angela has put in a lot of work, but some problems are fatal. After those good reviews, fans think that the clues are too messy so that the plot is a bit fragmented, although the ending is understandable But I don't understand why this is the case. Simply put, the story is not told well!

The opinions of movie fans are all good, and the movie critics are completely one-sided.They basically have the same opinion on character performance, "Bento King" Timmy is the most eye-catching and the best, Jordana's image and performance are also well received, and several other young people are also remarkable.However, when it comes to clues and plots, although there are not enough bad reviews, each of them is full of guns and sticks, and there is no mercy in the writing.

"The dialogue is very humorous, and the language of the camera is quite satisfactory, but the messy clues make people look at the flowers in a fog. Miss Mason obviously forgot where the thread was when she was knitting a sweater. As a result, although the clothes were knitted, the patterns were messy. Obviously, although Miss Genius is very smart, she still needs to learn how to direct!"

This kind of evaluation is already relatively positive. Some people seem to see a dog in the water and can't wait to throw stones to smash it into the bottom of the water.

"Personally, I think that Ms. Angelason should go back honestly and shoot MTV for a few more years. Even those talented non-academic directors have created their own film language through countless explorations. A young girl of a few years, even if she is a recognized genius, can only make MTV-style movies like "Run Lola Run". Let's do it with a male director!"

Although Angela had anticipated such a situation when preparing the script, and continued to understand herself throughout the filming and production, it was necessary for her to do so, but she still felt uncomfortable when things came to an end.

The reason why she chose a semi-original script written by herself when she was the second director, instead of finding a familiar low-cost movie in the "treasure box", is to see what advantages and disadvantages she has as a director, so she is in When the director produces, he completely follows what he has learned and mastered, and it is because of this that he has always done it with ease.

"I'm sorry, Angie." Natalie felt a little regretful as soon as she said the words, and she couldn't help but feel even more annoyed when she saw Angela like this.

"It's okay, Nat, I really didn't do a good job this time." Allah somewhat recovered her original appearance, smiled and shook her head.

"Anyway, don't take it too seriously, Angie, those comments I made are just a blowout of macho chauvinism." Natalie said consolingly, "It's normal, whenever there are particularly outstanding women, there will always be It will arouse the jealousy of some men, especially if they think that the field they are proud of is inviolable, just ignore them."

A blowout of macho chauvinism?Ha, I actually have such a day, how...funny!Angela smiled wryly in her heart, but Natalie's comfort made her a lot happier. Her parents, Aunt Jennifer, Anne, Kate, Jessie and other friends, classmates, and colleagues are also more or less explaining these days It doesn't matter if she's uncomfortable, and besides, I have achieved my goal, at least I have a good grasp of the use of the lens, and the outline and construction of the scene are quite satisfactory, but the level of storytelling still needs to be honed.

"Don't worry, Nat, this is just a test product. I just use it to analyze my own strengths and weaknesses. It's not a failure." Angela patted the back of Natalie's hand, "When my next work comes out, They will naturally shut up obediently."

Natalie smiled slightly, hesitated for a while before saying: "Angie, don't you think... a little too aggressive? Although I hate the tone of those people, I also think it's better for you to accumulate some experience."

Angela raised the corners of her mouth, and regardless of someone passing by, she held Natalie's face and kissed her gently on the forehead: "Thank you, Nat, I have a sense of proportion, let's go out now, let Xue Mrs. Li has waited too long."

After taking her hand and walking a few steps, Angela stopped suddenly, turned her head and looked at Natalie with a pleading expression: "Can you stay at my house tonight, Nat, please, don't refuse me !"

Natalie rolled her eyes angrily, then stepped forward to grab Angela's arm firmly: "Okay!"

After spending a pleasant and short day with Natalie on Sunday night, Angela returned to Los Angeles. The weekend box office of "Stealing and Kidnapping" has already been set at only 1900 million, and it is impossible to exceed this number , At least half of it is earned from the popularity of girls, and many people also make a big fuss about it.

Angela didn't take it seriously. After watching the newspaper for a few days after the movie was released, she didn't plan to read it anymore. She also kept silent about the reporters' pursuit and questions, and put on a very serious attitude that you can write whatever you want. Violent non-cooperative attitude.

Anyway, the movie cost less than 1000 million before and after, and a box office of 2000 million is enough to protect its capital, and no matter how bad the movie is, it will have to be released for at least one month before it is released, even if it is lacking in storytelling, But she has put a lot of effort into the details, and those who are interested in this aspect will definitely like it, and maybe they can make a small profit after the file is released.

Therefore, the girl put her energy into the preparation of two new scripts, especially the selection of directors, both of which required some effort.
