.Slam, turned off the bedside lamp, Angela, who had put on her pajamas, retracted into the quilt. Although you yawned, there was no drowsiness at this time. Jennifer asked her repeatedly in her head: "You What are you afraid of?
"I'm not afraid of anything, I'm just not confident." The little girl murmured, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes.
Speaking of it, it is really a nerd and a nerd. The otaku life in her last life gave her a unique advantage in certain information, but it also made her lack of enterprising and self-confidence. Guy, it's really hard for him to face reality boldly. The reason for secretly writing a novel and writing a script is also the same. She doesn't know what the result will be. Even though she knows that these are first-class works in previous lives, she still feels uneasy. After all, this is her plagiarism!
Oh, of course, some people may say that in the afternoon, when Angela talked with producer Nancy and Disney's review team leader George, what was the guilty conscience? But that's because this guy has been forced to retreat. You should know that "Born in One" is a film written and directed by Nancy Meyers in 1998, and sent the script to the original author. Only a "genius" like her can figure it out. Otherwise, if it is pushed to the edge, it will rebound strongly. The performance in the afternoon will know what it will be like.
Angela turned over, staring at the rows of alarm clocks at the bedside. It was past 10 o'clock, and she should usually fall asleep at this time, but she still didn't want to sleep, but finally turned over and got up to fight. Turn on the light, and then pull out a small cardboard box from under the bed. When you open it, you can see that there is a lot of paper in the mess, some of which have several pages, while others have only one or two.
The little guy pouted and took these things out and slowly opened them. If someone who was born again saw these things, he must stun his chin to the ground. "Theft of Fire", "Mummy", "The Matrix", "The Matrix" "Titanic" and so on, the little girl is simply a sweep of Hollywood's future blockbusters! However, these things have not been completely written, and some even have only a beginning, and they are not in the form of a script. They are mostly between fiction and content introduction.
"Well," Born in a Pair "was sold, so what should we do?" Angela sat on the ground, her head resting on her knees curled up, and mumbled at the works in the box, I wrote "Born in One" just to make some pocket money, but these were written for fun when I was bored before, so if I need money later, just pick one out? So what if you meet the original author?
I'm crazy, what do I think about when I get up without sleeping? Angela knocked her head, and she felt a bit depressed. She felt that she seemed to be increasingly lacking in pride after becoming a girl. Even if plagiarism is the case, it is not without her own things, just like this "Born in One", the original Because Nancy Meyers didn't know much about Britain, so most of the dramas in the UK were filming. But Angela is different. Her mother is an Englishman and she has not stayed in the UK since childhood. In these details As well as the British lifestyle, she has a greater say. This is also reflected in the script, and she also designed different small actions for the twins in the play, so she also plagiarized. It's not necessarily correct. Even if you copy a certain screenwriter's play, you may not starve to death because of that screenwriter, or you might write a better one, so you are totally worrying.
"Sleep! Sleep! Think of so much, there must be a road to the front of the mountain, when the time comes!" As soon as the bachelor character broke out, Angela was too lazy to turn off the lights and go to bed, wrapped in a quilt.
George took a deep breath, adjusted his tie again to ensure his grooming, and walked out of the elevator. A white man in his thirties, in front of the reception desk, had waved at him.
"Hi, Matthew."
"Hi, George."
The two shook hands, and Matthew made a hand gesture to the door at the end of the hallway: "Come on, both are waiting for you."
"To be honest, Matthew, we have worked together a lot, what do you think?" George took a deep breath and asked.
"Don't be nervous, George," Matthew smiled slightly, but then converged again. "Very good. I have read your submission. The gentlemen of the board also think so, but ... you better do it. Be prepared. "Without waiting for George to understand, he reached out and opened the conference room door for him.
"Dear Mr. Chairman and directors, I am George Wells, the editorial team leader of the film subsidiary. I believe you have read my submissions, and I personally think that it is totally worth investing in the company." After the greeting, George began to talk eloquently. He was very confident, because the middle-aged man in his fifties sitting on the long table was the current CEO and chairman of Disney Pictures Entertainment, Michael Ace. Na, since he came here from Burbank in person, it shows that he really attached great importance to this submission.
As an old Disney employee, George knew very well that although Disney's long-term of animation can be said to be synonymous with American animation, the premiere of "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 also seemed to welcome Disney's second spring, but the animation aspect is still There are many developments that need improvement. The current ceo Eisner is a bold and courageous boss, so he fully believes that Eisner can see the potential value of "The Lion King" and "Born in One", so the same He should also see the value of Angela.
Soon the meeting came to an end. After George's understanding, several directors asked some questions again. He answered them one by one. From the expressions of satisfaction of the directors, it can be seen that the effect is good, but Michael Ace, the big boss. Na didn't say anything from beginning to end, but just folded his hands in front of him and listened to the discussion of others, which made George a little hesitant.
Finally, after the other directors discussed and the meeting room became quiet, Eisner opened his mouth slowly: "Mr. Wells, your suggestion is very good, whether it is this animation or this movie, for Disney is very significant, and I agree with investing, but here is a problem ... "
He stared at George: "How are you going to convince Mr. Pedro's boss, Mr. Jared Harris Mason, to make a movie for his baby girl?"
"Look, George, I know you want to work hard, but sometimes you don't have the time to get there," Michael Eisner patted George's shoulder against the empty conference room, At this moment, there is no boss's momentum, but it is more like an elder. "I never told you that you do n’t have to hurry and take your time. This time it is still the case. The submission has been done very well. I appreciate it. As for the girl ... Forget it, I've seen it a few times before-in Mr. Mason's private party, it was indeed a very charming child, but don't try hopeless things. "
"Well, Mr. Eisner, in fact, after hearing about her identity, I have no idea of her idea." George also leaned at the table and replied wryly.
"That's it, I'm going back," Eisner pointed to the door. "You can't let them wait too long."
George nodded, then remembered something, he looked at him hesitantly: "My uncle's ..."
"Okay, okay, Frank won't know about it." Eisnahaha laughed and went out.
George kept sending him to the elevator door, and then returned to his office with a little loss. This is a pity. If he can win a dazzling child star, the influence of the film subsidiary will be at least doubled, but He never thought that Angela would be the daughter of the owner of the largest consortium in the West! God loves to be kidding.
"Don't be frustrated, no matter if you are animated or a movie, as long as you succeed, you will not be far from the general manager." Matthew walked in at this moment, said comfortably, and then said half-jokingly: "Know me You are just a deputy manager at the head office. You rise faster than me. "
"Come on, Matthew, you know I'm not annoying this." George shrugged.
"Yes, I know," Matthew said with a smile. "It's so whimsical to think of the daughter of Pedro's president, let me think about how you use words, oh, contemporary expenses. Wen Li! "
"Hey, I'm serious," George glared at him. "Anyway, how can I also think about the company, so you comfort me?"
"Well, I'll treat you tonight at Morton's Bar," Matthew shrugged. "I should go. Remember to be on time, not outdated!"
After watching Matthew leave, George shook his head and picked up the phone on his desk. "Hello, Miss Brant, can you pick me up, Nancy?"
"How about, George, can you prepare?" Nancy's voice came quickly from the other end of the phone.
"Yes, you can already contact the actor or something from now on, but ..." George sighed and explained the problem in detail. The other end of the phone was silent, and he could think that Nancy was also smiling hard, But her answer surprised him.
"I also want to try it, George." Nancy's voice was firm.
"You mean you still want to talk to Mason's?" George asked in surprise.
"Yes, you should understand that there may be opportunities to do something, but there is no chance if you don't do it!"
George froze. He wanted to persuade him, but he didn't say anything, he just said, "Good luck, then."
The moment he put the phone down, he thought, maybe it will succeed? 2k novel reading network
