"When ?. Settlement can be resolved. Angela is broken in the heart. Six, of course, on the surface, still calm, watching the heads of various departments in the conference room.
"Well, in this case, the matter was settled. McKinley then opened his mouth. In fact, most of the time when he held such meetings, he talked to Angela. Others only asked about it in Angela. Only two sentences will be answered at that time.
Angela nodded secretly. From the previous conversations, McKinley's head was still sober, and he always understood her intentions. In fact, Angela did not want to blame everyone in the movie department. After all, this dependence was caused by her in the first place. Besides, it is not a bad thing to hope that her part can maintain its peak. Then,
"By the way, McKinley, how did I talk about that last time?" Angela, who had made up her mind, asked suddenly.
"What do you say?" McKinley thought for a few seconds. "It's been negotiated, but it's a little higher than the conditions you gave."
"A little taller?"
"Yes, the cost of purchasing has increased by a percentage point, and the next few will also fluctuate depending on sales
"It doesn't matter, it's acceptable. As for the others, it only needs to have the right of first refusal."
McKinley was silent for a few seconds before asking again: "Excuse me, Angela, do you think she will be the second North Rowling?"
"The second Billy Lynn?" Angela laughed. "No, no, McKinley, Stephanie's writing and ideas are good, but at best they are only best-selling writers and best-selling youth writers. She is worse than Rowlings. At least a chip. Frankly speaking, this is just a high school student love story dressed in a vampire and werewolf coat. "
Yes, that's right, Angela is talking about that now, "Twilight" created by Stephanie Meyer, who was later "honored" as "American Qiong Yao." Although she has been trying to make the film The ministry enters the track of self-exhibition, but it does not mean that you can let go. In the principle of
no money, you do n’t make a lot of money
, Angela still immediately informed McKinley that they bought the film production right after the publication. .
It's just that Pixar's reputation in this area is too loud, especially the film production rights of the "Harry Potter" series, so the first contact was almost a lion's mouth. However, at that time, "Twilight" had just begun to sell well, and it had not fallen into the eyes of other movie companies. In addition, when McKinley contacted again and did very secretly, he talked with the other party very patiently. Although Stephanie ’s lion ’s big opening basically belongs to
the sky is the price, and the money is repaid on the ground.
However, there is not much money to be paid on the ground, after all, the
Harry Potter
series is a good lesson.
However, Angela doesn't necessarily need this movie, nor does she think that Stephanie can be compared with Rowling.
Quite simply, the industry chain of "Harry Potter" alone is enough to throw "Twilight" a few streets away, and not everyone has been ruthlessly abandoned by her husband and has been so embarrassed that he can only go to the cafe to warm up He had desperately wanted to commit suicide.
Strictly speaking, the "Harry Potter" series can also be regarded as a youth campus, but the problem is that the youth campus is only a small part. Rowling's excellence lies in building a world. Although she just laid the foundation of this world, she gave others unlimited imagination. Those who are constantly emerging in order to complete the world setting are the best proof. . This is not a setting a housewife can make after a nap.
Negotiations have therefore been at an impasse, but Stephanie is not stupid after all, and she has set her place after being hot-headed. In addition, Pixar's contract, although not as good as Rowling's, is quite comparable to those of the film companies she contacted in private. That's right, and finally signed off quickly.
"I just insisted on buying this book and subsequent film production rights. What I liked was the characteristics of medium investment but big profits. Angela explained," It's very simple. According to the scenes described in the book, investment is almost advised. 10,000 to 40,000 is enough. If the heroine and the heroine start the newcomer, they can save some more. I already have a heroine and the return is at least 100 million! Think about what kind of people like this book
Who else can be. No difference from those readers of Qiong Yao , plus they are all middle class, how can a movie ticket be affordable.
As for the heroine, of course, it is still Kristen Stewart. Her mother is a script supervisor and a screenwriter. She has met with Angela several times before, and naturally she met Kristin in her teens
The wild boy who was full of short trousers was completely inconsistent with the later beautiful image.
Even she and Judy Foster starred in David Finch's "Fresh Space" which was invested by Pixar
Vinci directly found Angela hoping to invest, Angela agreed and directly recommended Judy to play, but after going around, Christine starred in the role of daughter and had to say it was fate.
"I understand what McKinley said after listening to it once.
"So that's it. In fact, everyone is doing a good job. I don't need me to join him. Angela smiled and looked at the others in the conference room. Then she reached out and knocked at the table." So, let ’s talk about the last one. Let's do it, mine, "New movie. Remember that I had everything in place before the concert. I can start as soon as I want."
"In terms of various equipment and equipment, it is really unpleasant and needs to be allocated according to the specific circumstances, so Ma Bu began to open the state of hatred." McKinley said.
Angela immediately laughed: "It doesn't matter, I know, it's impossible that they have to stay where they are because I need them."
"One more thing, Mr. Alpacino has not yet been invited." McKinley raised another question.
Angela blinked and immediately understood. Like the human hand, Al could not set aside such a long time interval for her, so instead of giving out an invitation before that, she would wait for her to finish the concert. Another is that McKin used this method to remind her of her daughter's role.
It's really difficult to make a good decision. This role is to write about yourself, and it's fair to act on your own. But if you use it as both an actor and an important player, it is either difficult to shoot or the quality is not high.
"Well, I know, I will make a decision as soon as possible," Angela said finally.
In the glare of the sun, do not visit the streets of Luoshan, and carefully dressed Angela wearing a sun hat and sunglasses. . Feeling the heat of summer walking silently in the cool breeze of study.
Although she seems to be watching the people around her, in fact, her main energy is to think about things before. Alpacino is necessary to play the role of father. She can wait if the schedule is not suitable, but she can't decide whether to play the role of daughter.
It's really embarrassing. Angela thought a little dismayed. I wanted to ask my father, but in this case, the surprise is no longer a surprise. At first, it was easy to add small details, and then merged the inspiration from Al's performance. Speaking of, the reason why I wrote this character based on Al's image, in addition to my personal preferences, is probably not related to the appearance of father and daughter with those times,
The eyes behind the sunglasses suddenly lighted up, and a kind of consciousness surged up. Hell, it ’s better to act as a daughter, since it was originally written to yourself. Why should we let others perform? Big deal, progress is slightly slower. Unraveling Angela's pace suddenly briskly, allowing the bodyguards following her to hurry up several steps.
Now Aguila is really shopping. Take a look here and there. There were occasional fun things in her head, such as World of Warcraft that made her cry and laugh. The dungeon system, the guild system, the operating system, and so on. A perfect game should have it all, but it's just that those completely different pictures really don't know what it should be. And those guys in the game department really made the ten stories in the original game into a game, giving Angela a sense of absurdity whether there was a chicken or an egg first.
Going to a bar, Angela looked up and down and pushed in.
It's still early. There are not many people in the bar. The golden light shines on the ground through the light-colored glass, giving the room a dim sense of decadence.
Sitting down on the high stool in front of the bar, Angela asked for a cup of gin and to taste it slowly, feeling the sweet bitter liquid with the tip of her tongue, she laughed a little, a smile mixed with sweetness and solitude .
That day she came home and bumped into Jessica and Liv following Annie in the kitchen to learn to make snacks. The two were laughing and playing while playing, and they didn't know what was on their faces. Although the finished products were not very good, the atmosphere was very harmonious and warm. Angela watched silently outside the kitchen for a long time, and until Alice saw her deliberately screaming, she flushed in and greeted Jessica.
She still remembers the scene when a box of snacks came out.
"It's made something weird again." Jessica said frustratedly looking at the horrible snacks, then quickly cheered up again: "How about trying again? I can do better next time, I hope Angie La loves not only its taste but also its shape. "
She smiled softly, nodded her fingers on the snack, and seemed to want to make them more beautiful.
"I wish I could feed Anji so much every day, and feed her as quickly as possible, preferably in the shape of a pig, and then I would hug it every day." Liv said sternly.
"Hey, even if she was fed into a pig, that would be my pig." Jessica immediately corrected Liv's claim.
"You said it was your pig, so it must be yours?" Zaifu resigned.
The two immediately started a debate on the ownership of this pig named "Angela". There was no quarrel and no nose and eyebrows. The atmosphere of the debate has always been very friendly. Both parties are polite, if not reminded by Annie They are preparing for the next round of production, and they may debate this issue for an afternoon.
Angela was always laughing at first, but at the back of her mouth slowly halfway down, the radian of the hook seemed to be absent. After being called into the kitchen, she swept away all the snacks made by the two as if she had not eaten for three days and three nights. The consequence was that it naturally rose like a pig.
I will never do that stupid thing again next time! Angela recalled the embarrassing appearance of her belly that night, and could not help telling her that in her heart. Just "Is there really no way to do this next time?"
Angela sighed slightly, but smiled all the time. When she drank up, Jin Tangli was about to get up and leave, but her eyes were suddenly attracted by the people on the other side of the bar.
That's a woman, a woman who is not pretty but very charming, about the same size as herself, with a long black and beautiful, wearing trousers and black sleeveless vest, two bronze arms appear very bare health. It's just that she's here, weeping on the counter, a pair of eyes staring at the cup lunch of the hand armor. The eyebrows of Liang Zhi's beautiful eyes were slightly raised, and he seemed to have lost interest in everything.
Angela frowned and looked around, thinking about coming to the other side, hesitating for a few seconds after a tentative cry: Xiao Qiao? "
With a slight movement of his head and no response, Angela's brows frowned deeper, and she simply grabbed the other's head and pulled it in front of her, exclaiming: "Jordanana Brewster".
The other party finally responded. She looked up and looked at Angela in confusion, hesitantly asked, "You are", who? "
Angela didn't care about her mouthful of alcohol, grabbed her shoulder and shook it vigorously: "Did you not go back to Yale University after filming" Duo and Leak "? Have you graduated? Why are you alone? Drunk here ?, little
Although Jordana Brewster only co-operated with Angela in "Stealing and Abducting", she could talk to her for various reasons. After that, Pixar invested in that "degrees and omissions", so she and Angela count Is a general friend. However, after Jordana Tiannian went to Yale University to continue her abandoned studies, the relationship between the two gradually faded, but occasionally there will be one or two emails that reunite until today, but Angela never expected to see Such a Jordana.
"Don't touch me, who the are you ?!" Jordana opened Angela's hand impatiently.
Then Angela remembered that she had put on her makeup, and took off her hat and raised her sunglasses: "Do n’t you know me, Xiao Qiao?"
Jordana opened her mouth and looked at Angela for a long while, and finally showed a stunned look, about to call out, Angela had already said, "Please call me Chris now
You know. "
Joe froze for a few more seconds, probably drinking a little too much, and then easily turned around, and his tongue was knotted and said, "Oh" Yes, of course, I "I understand"
She laughed and said, "It's great to see you, Ann." Chris, how about a few drinks with me? "
Angela raised her eyebrows, and immediately held down her hand that wanted to greet the bartender: "What happened to Joe?"
"Nothing, just" I just want to drink. "Jordana made a little effort, took back her hand, and waved to the bartender:" Hey, give me another Margaret, add more wine, what do you want, Ann, Chris? "
"Margaret? Add more wine? What are you doing so much ?!" Angela said angrily.
"Don't I even have the right to drink?" Jordana said vaguely, dissatisfied, "what do you want? Let the bartender mix it for me if not."
"Well, let's say a cup of gin and tonic Angela helplessly.
Soon, the transparent King Tomley and the light blue Margaret were taken over, and Jordana made another amazing move at this time, took the glass of Margaret and took a big sip. Angela next to him was stunned.
Joe coughed quickly, apparently she had taken a big sip to hold her back but fortunately she didn't drink it all. Angela hurriedly supported Jordana, and patted her on her back. Little Joe coughed a few times and grunted and took a few breaths. Then he straightened up and forced a smile: "Sorry, I drink a little faster point
"Can you tell me what is happening now?" Angela had probably guessed why she was so dysfunctional, but if you want the other person to be better, it is better to let her speak it out better.
Jordana looked up at Angela for a long while, and there was a hint of gratitude in her eyes: "I lost my lover," and I'm getting married tomorrow. "
"So you're here to numb yourself with alcohol?" Angela asked calmly.
"So what should I do? Xiao Qiao asked with a grin," It's over.
After a few seconds of silence, Angela said again: "It looks like you love him very much."
"Yes, of course
"Why not fight for that? Xiao
"I fought, I tried. I," failed
"When you think you have failed, that is the real failure."
"Come on, Chris, you don't even know what I'm facing, you don't even know how much those pressures are!"
"How big? Can it be better than finding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?"
"It's more than that!" With that, Jordana suddenly gave a strange smile: "Oh, yes, I forgot to tell you, Chris, it's her, not him!"
Silence suddenly enveloped the two, Andu pulled his lips, his eyelids were lowered and he couldn't see what he was thinking, and Jordana looked at her with mocking eyes.
"What do you think I'm going to say? The corner of Little Angela's mouth suddenly lifted up, and the same expression came out. A strange smile," Think you're a pervert? Think you're sick? Think you should be destroyed humanely? Don't be stupid, Xiao Qiao, don't always be hurt because of yourself, so think that others are hurting themselves-I did the same before, so my experience feels deeper than you. "
Jordana opened her mouth, looked at Angela blankly, and seemed totally unaware of what she should say.
"Well, now, I want you to tell me the details, the details of you and her. Understand ?. Angela's irresistible voice sounded.
It is estimated that it will be late again tomorrow "
