Vol 3 Chapter 48: A last resort

"So, when you apply to come to New York as an exchange student, you are ready to follow your dreams?" Sitting neatly by the round table, Angela gracefully lifted the tea cup with and took a sip gently. The grace and temperament made Ivanka on the other side feel ashamed.
However, who would have thought that just a quarter of an hour before this beautiful lady was still crying, her face was covered with grass, and her clothes were stained with mud. A grievance looks like crying at any time?
"Yes, master tapes have been sent to the three companies, but there is no news so far." Ai Weier said to her cheeks, she has already found a way to do the best she can do in the current situation, but with little news It was too disappointing. However, after secretly squinting at Angela, she quickly replied, "Of course. I will come to New York also because Angela is now at Harvard, so that I will not see her as difficult as before."
"Of course, it's more difficult for me to meet you now." Angela still couldn't hold back.
"I just want to ... become a signed singer and come to see you again." Avril Lavigne rubbed her hands and flattened her mouth, aggrieved, but she would only do this in front of Angela.
"Become a singer? Dear, do you know how many girls in the United States want to be singers. Do you know how many people become singers?" Angela still said politely, the little girl in the last few minutes before She pinched her waist, "You do n’t want to come over to see me one day without signing a record, you are so cruel!"
She said that Wei Wei became more uneasy, and her small face became worse and worse. In the eyes, Angela could not help but regret it, but it was not good for a while. Fortunately, Natalie came out to play the round at this time: "Anji, Weiwei just wants to give you a surprise, and she hasn't said that if she can't sign a contract, she won't come to see you. Besides, is there anything wrong with chasing your dreams on your own?"
"Dear, of course, no problem. I definitely believe that Weiwei has that strength-don't doubt my vision, but opportunity is also important besides ability," Angela squinted her eyes and shook her fingers. "Remember it was released last year. "Never Compromise"? Albert Finney, who played the old lawyer, has been forty years. So far, it has not been counted four times for the Academy Award nomination. There is still no award so far. Although one is acting and the other is singing, the essence of ability and opportunity is still the same.
Pausing for a moment, Angela sat upright, crossed her hands, and stared at Avril. "I know what you're thinking, Vivi, and I understand it, but it's too rude to think of me as a daredevil!"
"I'm sorry," Avril pursed. "I originally planned to make the signing of the contract a part of the surprise."
"I accept your apology." Angela nodded with a smile, but the thief looked like he didn't know what to think.
"So are you still satisfied with my gift?" The little girl opened her eyes wide and round and looked at her with hope.
"Although it is slightly flawed, it is still excellent. But I think you can be more born" Angela blinked. "I will recommend you to some musicians when I return to Los Angeles in a few days. What should I do next? It's yours, "
Some musicians naturally refer to John Burns, the music director of the Hollywood Records Company. Naturally, Wei Wei ’s strength is needless to say that she wrote the song before, and now she is already a semi-glossy jade. As long as you polish it a little, you can emit your own glory. So Angela just needs a small push.
And because of the production of "Pianist" this year, I am afraid that the new album can only be postponed to next year, although the Hollywood record company is currently developing well. The combination of Britney and Christina is also quite popular, but it is only barely able to stand by with Angela-or two together. And it's just in popularity, they are much worse if they want to speak of music literacy.
Therefore, Angela is an icon of the record company, and she has always cooperated well. The other party also gave her a lot of right to speak, and recommended them to the future rock boy as compensation. Of course, if they look away, they can only talk and they should be unlucky.
"So, it won't be long before we can hear Vivi's album?" Scarlett said holding her face in surprise, although Ai Weier was dissatisfied with her because she "betrayed" herself and could not retaliate because she could not catch up Glared at her, but
With a small breast, he proudly said, "As long as you give me a chance, I will never lose to Anji again."
"I would believe it if it was just rock, but generally speaking about music ..." Scarlett prolonged her voice, and the teasing taste in her voice made Avril immediately bit her lip and waved her fist fiercely Threat, but it is only a threat, although the little girl has a good relationship with everyone. But the closest person except Angela was Scarlett.
"That's not necessarily true, Manny," Natalie smiled at Angela with a smile, "Vivi said that the music refers to the singing career, and someone has been criticized more than once for being too lazy to make music, and now breaks Oscar. The youngest record in history for being nominated for best director, it is conceivable that it will be sooner or later to be surpassed in the singing business. "
"Yeah, Angie has been nominated for an Oscar for best director, and this time she is nominated for best soundtrack and best screenplay. She always makes some seemingly impossible achievements." Avril recalled and then clicked The head, although it seemed to be admiring, was at the same time a little depressed. Scarlett, who was next to her, immediately expressed her thoughts: "Forget it, Wei Wei, you are just disappointed that you can't compete with An Anji in music."
"It's not possible, nat," Angela smiled and shook her head at Natalie, apparently disapproving of her words: "Even if I only issue one ep per year before graduating from college, I can still keep it now The status of the music industry. "
Before waiting for Natalie to speak, Avril jumped up and said, "Will you release a rock ep?"
As soon as the words fell, I realized that she was sitting on Scarlett's spit, but Vivi was too lazy to care, and Scarlett smirked and stared at Angela without blinking, while Angela watched her with a smile. Pointing his finger at his face, he spit out a word that rolled his eyes: "Guess!"
"Look at it, some people are scared." With Natalie's ridicule, a few people immediately made a noise, but at this time Liv, who had exchanged model experiences with Ivanka, intervened: "You are talking about Angie's Is it music? "
"Great, Liv, have you ever acted as Anji's mtv heroine, right?" Avril's eyes brightened and she immediately grabbed Liv's arm. "If I release an album in the future, you are willing to be my mtv Actress? "
"Of course, no problem," Liv said in surprise. "I played a role in Anji and his father's mtv. It's quite fun to talk about mtv, but unfortunately, Anji never asked me to do it again."
"Then settle down like this, okay." Avril said with an intentional or unintentional provocative glance at Angela, and Angela looked at the little guy with amusement and amusement. Suddenly the look on her face changed with a little pleading. Liv: "Liv, wouldn't you just throw me away?" The tone was extremely ambiguous, as if the lover was breaking up.
"But you haven't asked me to shoot mtv for a long time." Liv muttered her mouth and could not see that it was intentional.
"It seems that you say you don't try to cooperate with the same singer twice as much, right?" Angela raised her cheeks and stared at Liv, with the appearance of being beaten and raked.
"Yeah, so I promised Vivi." Liv opened her eyes, her lips line sag downwards, and her childishness shook her shoulder from side to side. The blue eyes were full of naughty.
"It is said that we must do it, we must have the credit to adhere to the principle, right, Liv?" Wei Wei, who formed the United Front, smiled proudly.
"I can't stand the three of them. It's a child-like fight." Natalie rolled her eyes and whispered to the others, "when can I be mature?"
At this moment, Angela rolled her eyes and suddenly struck Ivanka's shoulder: "Yi Ni, would you come to act as my mtv heroine?" Angel's Gaze "hasn't filmed mtv yet."
"I don't know anything." Ivanka immediately turned off Ivanka's shoulder: "Yi Ni, can you come and play my mtv heroine?" Angel's Gaze "hasn't filmed mtv yet."
"I don't know anything." Ivanka immediately turned her head away from looking at her, and she was still angry.
"Please, Ini, don't you just watch them laugh at me, shouldn't friends help each other?" Angela immediately pretended to be tearful and begged with the sound of milk. Where does this look like a genius?
Fortunately, the maid who came with the phone untied Ivanka: "Miss, your phone."
"My phone?" Angela picked it up. "Hi, I'm Angie. Who are you ... Jesse ?!"
Angela stood up in surprise, then hid the microphone and smiled at everyone: "Sorry, lose company."
Then he didn't wait to pull the chair and walked quickly to the vestibule. A few girls, look at me, I look at you, then shrugged their shoulders neatly and started talking about other topics. Only Natalie glanced at Angela. Back view. "I'm so glad to hear your voice. I thought you wouldn't call me." Angela said with a smile, walked into the living room, looked around, and walked across the corridor to the kitchen.
At this time, there were only two maids in the kitchen chatting while baking snacks. Seeing that the lady came in and asked to ask for anything, Angela waved her hand: "Sorry, I want to take a personal call here. "
The maids nodded and went out of the kitchen to close the door, and then Angela continued to say to the microphone: "Of course, of course, your acting skills must have improved ... Hey, how could I lie to you. Is there a rating? Does n’t the message on the website explain the problem? But it ’s really a bit worse than
Death Comes.

She stared at the cabinet in front of her with a curved corner, but the focus was not focused on it but scattered around: "Don't tell me you can't even accept such a blow ... take your time, don't worry."
There seems to be something fun over there. Angela chuckled and turned around and looked out through the glass window. She banged her fingers on the wall: "Tell her, be honest with me, and in a few days it will be the Academy Awards ceremony. I will definitely return ... … Thank you, to be honest I didn't expect to be nominated for the best director ... Of course not. The nomination is already very good, the chance of being awarded to me is only 0.01, I will not expect it ... Of course, I will get it sooner or later. "
Angela walked slowly back and forth in the kitchen. From time to time, it is obviously very happy to say a few sentences and then make a light laugh.
"Did I not say that, I will attend the Oscar awards in a few days, and see you then." As he knocked, the door rang, followed by Natalie who pushed in the door and walked in to make her a snack. .
"Okay, okay, I know," Angela nodded calmly to Natalie. "Rest assured, I haven't forgotten, although this is the first time I can't attend your birthday party, but what? , Guess what way I will send the latest "Jessica Adventure" to you ... well, that's it, I love you. "
"You have such a good relationship." Natalie clipped her cookie to the plate and gave her a glance.
"You don't know, Jesse and I have always been very good." Angela put away the phone and shrugged.
"Well, I don't have any comics on the big adventure series," Natalie said in a mournful tone.
"Ha, someone is jealous." Angela took Natalie's waist from behind, closed her eyes and inhaled deeply in her hair. "Should I be happy or worried?"
"Let me think about it, why not worry?" Natalie turned and looked at Angela close by, with an inexplicable light shining in her eyes: "Because ... your response is quick."
"Oh?" Angela blinked, and suddenly her head was buried on Natalie's shoulder and she took a deep breath.
"What's wrong?" Natalie was bewildered by Angela's movements, and quickly grabbed her shoulders and pushed away to ask, "What happened?"
Angela looked at Natalie for a long while before she straightened her body and sighed softly, "I'm under a lot of pressure, nat."
"A lot of pressure?" Natalie was puzzled.
"Yes, for the next movie I will be directing, I don't know what the situation will be if it is announced." Angela frowned and raised her hand.
"What is it?"
Angela didn't answer directly. She hesitated to watch Natalie for a while before she said, "You won't say it, right?"
"If you don't want to say it then forget it." Natalie spread her hands.
"No no no, nat, I'm not distrusting you, I'm just afraid ..." Angela smiled wryly, "I'm just afraid if I say it ... you think I'm crazy."
"So serious?" Natalie was slightly surprised.
"Yes ..." Angela bit her lip. "The movie I'm going to direct is Pianist."
"The Pianist?" Natalie looked at Angela blankly, and her mind could not turn for a while.
"Yes," The Pianist "" Angela nodded strongly. "The autobiographical novel that topped the bestseller list last year."
"Last year ..." Natalie thought over her head, her expression gradually changed from blank to thinking and finally to shock.
"You mean ... you mean ..." She opened her mouth and closed it, opened her mouth again, and repeated it three times before asking with a somewhat altered voice: " You mean that Pianist ?! "
"Yes, nat, that's the" Pianist! "Angela calmed down at this moment, hugging Natalie with open arms," ​​I know you're shocked, but don't worry, only few people know now . "
"Wait, wait, Angie, do you know what you're doing?" Natalie grabbed Angela's arm and looked at her seriously. "Do you know what the subject matter is ?!"
"I know, I know exactly what I'm doing, nat," Angela looked at Natalie equally seriously. "I know what you're thinking. I'm just a 19-year-old girl. My experience and ability are not enough to bear. Such a heavy subject matter. If there is a problem in the production due to poor thought, then it will face more than just a sentence or two of criticism. "
She paused afterwards and said, "I prepared a large set of speeches before, but then I do n’t think about it, because when people make their own judgments about something in their hearts, nothing will say. Listen, so I asked the people in the film department to keep it secret-at least until I turned it on. Because after that I would use facts to prove it. "
"No, Angie, you're too arrogant!" Natalie's brows frowned tightly. "Maybe you can play the editing effect of" Memory Fragment ", maybe you can think deeply about the social problems of" American Beauty " , But this, the subject matter is heavier than you think! "
She gasped slightly, feeling excited: "Remember I told you how I felt when I was in" Annie Diary "? Although everyone said that my performance was excellent, I clearly knew that I had done far. It ’s not enough. Some things have never been experienced in person and are always separated by a layer of frosted glass! "
"Nat, listen to me, nat," Angela held up her face and looked at Natalie's eyes and resumed a serious expression: "Do you believe me?"
Natalie looked at those green eyes, opened her mouth but didn't know whether to say yes or no, and her face showed a sad look.
"I have finished the script, I have also started to choose actors, and at the same time let people go to Poland and Germany, which means that the film is already in secret preparations," Angela said, "everyone thought My experience is not enough to control this subject, but don't forget that I am a genius, I am good at creating miracles, so this time I can also use the facts to prove that I am right! So please believe that I can do well. "
"I don't know, I don't know ..." Natalie murmured, while Angela lowered her head and lightly pressed her lips against her lips. 2k novel reading network
