Chapter 105: Coppola Diary

Seeking recommendation! Seeking collection!
The sun disappeared behind the sand dunes. Sophia Coppola stepped on the soft sand and walked towards the trailer where she lived. After a busy day of work, although the body is not exhausted, the spirit is extremely exhausted, especially when he was hit by a huge explosion. The ears, which were constantly stimulating, were still aching, always producing some buzzing noises.
"Fortunately for so long, I am used to it."
When I walked to the trailer, I habitually looked at the side. It was Duke’s residence. There was obviously no one. When that guy went to work, he could only describe it with full concentration. I took so many exploding shots today. I don’t know. When will he leave work.
"Don't worry about him, isn't there a Naomi Watts here now?"
Sophia murmured, pulled her trailer, walked in, took off the yellow sand-stained clothes, went into the bathroom, stood under the shower, raised her head to meet the warm water.
Perhaps the explosion made by the crew today is too large, and she has a lot of sand in her hair.
Recalling the shooting in the afternoon, Sophia felt her heart beating suddenly. Even though she had adapted to Duke’s shooting style, she couldn’t help being frightened when she saw the hundreds of feet long spaceship model engulfed in the sea of ​​fire by the huge explosion. ≥, an blaster and saboteur, even let people set dozens of explosion points on the spaceship model, and then explode like fireworks.
After taking a shower, Sophia wiped it briefly and checked that it was not too late. She wrapped a bath towel, sat at the table, took out a pen and notebook, and planned to write a work diary.
She doesn't write every day, but whenever she has a new perspective on the movie, she always writes it down in time, and it is not only the movie, but also the guy she serves.
The pen slowly turned around at her fingertips, and when Sophia opened the book, she suddenly lost the motivation to write.
Putting down the pen, she didn't close the book, but kept flipping it, looking at some of the things recorded in the past, especially some of Duke's views on the director, which looked very interesting at this time.

At Warner Studios, I found that Duke was full of adventurous spirit in addition to concentration and hard work. He would never say the words "impossible" and "unfeasible". Will not waver. Although he is always under pressure and enduring anger, he always keeps a cool head and regards himself as an independent outsider in the crew, and can always make timely criticisms and suggestions to the staff who make mistakes.

In post-production, Duke and Charles Rowan had different opinions. The two argued for two hours, and then he persuaded each other. When Duke made a movie, he gave me the feeling that he was the creator. He said that if there is light, there must be light, no matter what method is used. We discussed the practice of General Hammer’s advice in the movie. He firmly believes that humans will not suddenly evolve to a certain stage, and then immediately hand in hand to sing world peace, and all conspiracy and tricks disappear.
It should be said that what I believe is that peace can be obtained through more advanced armaments and force-perhaps it is this deep-rooted view that affects Duke's understanding of movies. He is always obsessed with special effects, explosions and action fighting.
On August 16, 1993, Yin...
"Independence Day" was established. This will be a super large production with a total investment of more than 100 million US dollars. Duke finally got all the powers of the studio and post-production. All this is what he deserves, including me. Some people have this kind of understanding-Duke will always be the director with strong desire for control and destruction from the set, and we are all surrounded by his powerful aura and have little say!

Duke finally rushed to the Duke’s studio. I could smell the woman’s perfume and the smell of smoke from the burning of hemp. He went to a female model party yesterday, and I can guess that he did it without thinking about it. what! Duke also admitted that he was with Charlize Theron and Cameron Diaz last night. I quarreled with him. I found that I couldn't suppress my inner anger at all, and I didn't want to suppress it!
I asked him if he had just achieved a little success, did he forget the importance of hard work? Have you forgotten the high investment in the film being prepared? I warned him that if this movie fails, he will be worthless and defeated! Too addicted to female will only bring obstacles!
Sophia, I want you to understand one thing-once we embark on this adventure and the filming starts, there is nothing to stop me, no beautiful and woman! The only way to stop me is to kill me!
Duke answered me this way. I looked into his eyes and realized that he really thought so-he would not give his fate to anyone, he would only hold it in his own hands!
There was a knock on the door outside the trailer. Sophia put away the notebook, walked over and opened the door. Outside stood a girl who was not too tall, the youngest of the main actors on the crew.
"Scar, what's the matter?" Sophia just showed a head.
"It's almost time for dinner, mom asked me to ask you to go there with you?" Scarlett took a step up, "Can I go in?"
"of course."
Although the little girl was in trouble, Sophia liked her very much and let her in, "Just sit down, I'll change my clothes."
After changing clothes, Sophia took Scarlett Johansson towards the dining car to meet Melanie Sloan who had passed by earlier.
"Did you finish your study lesson today?" Sophia asked her while pulling her.
"It's done, it's so boring." Scarlett's brows were twisted together, "Why do I have to shoot all my scenes separately instead of focusing on a few days? Did Duke have an opinion on me again? "
"My dear, Duke was doing business on business when filming." Sophia turned his head and said seriously, "Although strictly speaking, you are his sister, he will not show mercy if he makes a mistake. Scarlett, Any director will do this."
"Why are you always talking to Duke?" Scarlett rolled her eyes and suddenly changed the subject, "Sophia, don't you like Duke like that Naomi Watts?"
"This is not something you should be concerned about." Sophia shook her head.
"Cut, I'll be ten years old soon." Scarlett looked at Sophia's face and found nothing special, and said, "It won't be long before I can make a boyfriend."
Two women, one large and one small, walked into the huge tent connected to the dining truck while joking. This is the public restaurant where the crew dines. Except for the rental trailers and dining trucks, most of the facilities are actually provided by the military. The Pentagon does Provides a lot of convenience for the crew.
"I saw Duke." Scarlett pointed to a dining table near the corner of the tent. "He is sitting with the nasty woman Naomi Watts."
"Hate?" Sophia couldn't help feeling inexplicable. "Did she do anything to you?"
"When I was at Warner Studios, I once sent an ice cream to Duke." Scarlett Johansson beckoned to his mother, then walked to Duke's table, whispering to him. Sophia said, "Duke was busy, so I put it aside for the time being, but when she went, she threw my ice cream directly into the trash can."
"I'm so angry! I'm so angry!" She muttered, "I don't like her at all. If she were Duke's girlfriend, I would definitely speak ill of her to the godmother. Duke respects her most. Is the godmother."
Sophia couldn't help rolling her eyes. This little girl was really not an ordinary trouble.
"Hi, Duke."
Just as she walked to the dining table, Sophia noticed that Scarlett Johansson immediately changed to a cute smile full of innocence, jogged and jumped over, moved a chair and sat next to Duke, "Originally, my mother wanted to eat in the trailer. Yeah, but I miss you, I came here to find you specially."
Pulling a chair, Sophia sat next to Scarlett.
"What do you want to eat?" Duke took a glass, picked up the bottle of Gatorade from Naomi Watts's glass, and poured a glass for the little guy. "I have a treat today."
Yesterday Duke also received a call from his mother, asking him to take care of her lovely goddaughter.
"No more." Scarlett took the cup and shook her head. "I'll be going to New York in a few days. Will you come to New York for a treat? Also, it will be the Super Bowl soon. I heard the godmother say, Santa Fea A midfield event was held, can you take me to it?"
After thinking for a while, seeing the expectant eyes on the small face, Duke slowly nodded, "I can take you to Atlanta to watch the Super Bowl. Don’t be happy, Scarlett! There are two conditions. First, you You must perform more than I expected during the filming. Second, you have to convince your mother yourself!"
"I promise to do it!" Scarlett smiled happily.
"Super Bowl?" Naomi Watts on the other side seemed to be interested, "Why don't we go to Atlanta together."
Duke hadn’t spoken yet, Scarlett Johansson asked urgently, "Together? Are you going too, Nami?"
Seeing the other person nodding, she scratched the blonde hair pretendingly, "Nami, are you Duke's girlfriend?"
"Do you know love too, Scarlett?" The unnaturalness on Naomi Watts's face was fleeting, and under the cover of better and better acting skills, no one could even notice, "You are still so young."
"Of course!" Scarlett nodded vigorously.
"Scar, what do you want to eat?"
Duke stood up and interrupted the topic that was not suitable for the current discussion. After hearing the little girl's name of a few meals, he shook his head to Sophia and Naomi Watts, "Let's get dinner."
The three turned their heads and walked towards the dining car. Behind them, Scarlett Johansson reached out to take Naomi Watts’ cup, spit a sip of water into the Gatorade inside, and shook it on purpose After shaking, I took a closer look, didn't feel anything unusual, and put it back in place.
