Vol 2 Chapter 38: Go to high school

The knock on the door rang softly, then Elena pushed in and walked in.
"Hi, my dear, how is it?" She closed the door and went to her husband and asked.
"I'm sorry ..." Jared spread his hands and gave a helpless grin. "One thing I can be sure of is that our daughter is really not suitable for finance."
"But you promised her investment." Elena slightly surprised.
"Yes, because she's really working hard, and it's pretty good." Jared said, stood up, took a bottle of red wine and two glasses from the wine cabinet, poured it, and took it to his wife. "So you can celebrate."
Elena took the cup and frowned slightly. "Jeddy, you made me a little confused."
"Well, let's say that." Shaking the glass in his hand, Jared weighed the words and slowly opened his mouth. "Kris worked very hard to collect information for analysis, and she did catch it. Some key points. Remember, I told you that John Lassat, four of Pixar's chief executives, was fired by Disney to get there. Ed had originally wanted to teach at the university, but did not succeed. Smith at Xerox's Pa Loalto worked, but his department was abolished, and Steve was kicked out by his own Apple Computer company-although I supported him at the time, anyway, co-founded with these losers The future is a matter that needs to be considered. Kris obviously noticed this, but her view is that failure is the mother of success. Because they have all suffered huge failures, they will become even more important when creating the future. Boldness will also be more cautious! This view cannot be said to be novel, but it is convincing. Moreover, she also made a lot of evaluations on the use of animated films to create value. Steve sandwiched have to say, but it is also a fact. "
He paused before continuing: "But she overlooked several important points, one of which is that Pixar has been losing money since the Steve acquisition. Until now, there were not enough attractive conditions. No one will make an investment. The reason given by Kris is that digital animation has a prosperous avenue, and it will inevitably be a big cake in the animation market in the future, but all she cited are obsessed with computer animation. . Such as Andrew Stanton and others, and as far as I know, many professionals think that computer animation is a dead end, including Disney's hand-painted master Frank Thomas. "
"Two extremes?"
"Yes, both extremes, but interestingly, when Steve and I played golf, we talked about this topic, and he didn't even look good at computer animation. He planned to think about it in the first half of the year. Buy Pixar for Microsoft. "Jared said with a shrug and drank the glass of red wine.
And Elena nodded after thinking about it: "I want to understand what you mean. Even if Kris doesn't have financial talent, but she is really trying hard to be serious about her own goals. , So it does n’t matter if it fails, is it?

"Yes. Dear. I hope that even if she does not enter the financial industry in the future. But when making important decisions, she must think more and work harder. Instead of thinking about what to do." Jared smiled. . Then he saw his wife look puzzled. He explained, "As for Pixar. Don't worry. Give Kris a chance to exercise. And I agree with her description. The production cost will not cost much. There must be a surplus. Moreover, my daughter's talented call Power. Besides, if this 20 million is not invested in one time. "
"Okay. So I hope she grows up well!" Elena raised her glass with a smile.
It's not entirely known that the parents painstakingly Angela was making a phone call. Of course, if you know, you may sniff. She was not sure elsewhere. But the development of Pixar is indeed quite clear. In fact, she had planned to wait for the release of Toy Story. Pixar ridiculed his father when he went public. of course. Before that, she had to do her job well before she said it.
"What does consent mean in principle?" Sitting on the bed. Asked Angela, holding the microphone.
"Meaning is that. The relevant departments of the record company have agreed to this plan. But the audience needs to respond. If this mtv has been broadcast. It has been well received. Then the plan to make a drama will be implemented." Explained over the phone.
"Okay. I see. Why would you reject me as a director?" The girl asked again.
There was a wry smile on the phone: "This is normal, Angie, I reminded you from the beginning that no record company will use a person who knows nothing and has no experience to shoot mtv!"
"But I don't understand anything, and everyone has never experienced it!" Angela could not help but retort.
"But you're only 14 years old, Angie. You're too young anyway, even if you're a genius." Spiro said with consolation.
The girl was silent and gritted her teeth: "Okay, let's tell them! If they agree to let me be the mtv of this song, I can cover all the expenses and give them 5 consecutive scripts in the future operating!"
"Angie ..." It was completely audible, and Sparrow was smirking. "Do you think this is good? Angie? And even then Disney doesn't necessarily agree. Do you have to be the director of this song?"
"Yes! You must! If they don't agree, then I will step up until they agree!" Angela sat up and almost blurted out.
There was a silence there, and then sighed: "You are so excited, Angie, I think you should think about it and restore your sanity. Even if you insist, you have to think of a reason to convince them."
The girl said nothing in silence. She covered her forehead and smiled bitterly on her face. She was a little impulsive, but she was really anxious. "That's the truth" is one of the few mtvs she remembers completely, so she wants Copying this to experience the actual operation of the director, anyway, the theory is not as good as the hands once.
But although they have confidence in themselves, record companies do not necessarily have confidence in themselves. As Sparrow said, he is currently only 14 years old, and it is undoubtedly the stupidest way to hit people with money.
"Well, I'll think of another way." Angela finally sighed.
"Well, then you need to call me. Goodbye."
Sparrow closed the line. The girl sighed again, and then prepared to wash and sleep. She didn't want to think about it for the time being, and she would also attend the high school opening ceremony tomorrow.
Early the next morning, my mother came knocking on the door of her room: "Hi Chris, don't forget what to do today!"
"Got it, mom, I'll be fine right away." Angela opened a gap. He grimaced outwards.
"Well, you have 15 minutes." Elena smiled and left.
The girl in pajamas closed the door behind the door. Staring at the clothing that had been thrown on the bed for a long while, he took off his pajamas reluctantly and started to wear them.
A blue shirt, plus a black tie, and a blue-black jacket, form the upper body. The jacket has a large school badge on the left chest, while the lower body is a blue-and-white checkered skirt just above the knee, and just right. Black stockings covering the calf. There are also dark brown leather shoes.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Angela turned around, then shook her head, putting on school uniforms only made her think of sex, not female high school students.
"But I don't want to wear it at any time in the future," the girl muttered, and then went upstairs with the schoolbag already prepared.
"Hi dear, you look beautiful and youthful." In the restaurant. The father who put down the newspaper greeted her like this.
"Really, thank you, Dad." But the girl replied angrily. After sitting down, she gorged and left quickly, leaving Jared indifferent, looking at his wife and asking strangely: " Did I say something wrong? "
"No, my dear, it's just Kris going to high school for the first time. Nervousness or excitement is inevitable." Elena thought so. So she didn't interfere with her daughter's very unkempt movement.
Of course, for Angela. Some feelings are really terrible. From downstairs, everyone is praising her for being beautiful. Although she is also smiling and answering, she always feels that she is going to go not to school but to the filming of a film, obviously In the past life, she did not see less uniform movies.
Well, maybe it will be better when we get to school, after all, all are wearing school uniforms. Angela thought so after getting on the bus with her mother. Then, Pu Guanshui, who took over as David's driver and bodyguard, launched the silver Rolls-Royce and began to walk away. He wanted to praise it. In a word, the girl glared with her eyes and swallowed it back. At the same time, she wondered. When did the little aunt ’s eyes have such power?
The car quickly came out of Beverly High School, and then ---- passed it and moved on. Angela watched Beverly High School passing by the window with regret. When she heard her father told her to go to Beverly Hills High School, she always thought it would be here. After all, many stars in Hollywood had I studied here, such as Angelina Jolie, but she forgot that her family would obviously not agree with her to attend a public high school, so the school she was going to was at Weber High School near Beverly High School.
This school covers about 70 acres and offers 9th to 12th grade teaching. It has a very interesting place. This is a relatively independent coeducation school, which means that there are two relatively independent schools in the same school- --California Weber Boys 'School and Vivian Weber Girls' School, which combines the advantages of co-educational and co-educational schools, making it a unique learning environment, which is also what girls are most satisfied with
"Well, although the life in American high school is colorful, don't be too outrageous, I don't feel like a realistic version of" Baby Girl "!" Angela muttered through the window, looking at the already visible baroque roof Then said.
Alas, it's finally back to the previous update time, if there is no wood this evening, then it must be a double reading tomorrow.
