On the second day after finishing all the filming work of the movie, Wang Yang returned all the rented furniture and appliances in order to get 3,000 pieces of gold. To this end, he called Joshua to help, this kid is screaming again, but still not lazy.
After returning the furniture, the next day Wang Yang received a call from the owner of the "Left Beautiful" camera equipment store, Vanke-Sbo. Fanke said that the broken DV machine was repaired, but it was not sent back to the original factory. The DV machine It was repaired when it was delivered to Sony's repair station in Los Angeles, so it was a few days faster than expected. The reason for DV damage is that the small circuit board connected to the battery has broken, so the battery is not in good contact, and the DV machine cannot be turned on.
The repair cost cost US $ 50, and Wang Yang was relieved. He could afford the cost.
In Vanke-Spear, he got back 950 gold, plus 3000 on the furniture, Wang Yang used the money to pay the remaining half of the 4,000 pieces of remuneration for Zachary and Rachel, and completely removed the debt. Salary crisis.
But in this way, Wang Yang's pocket is less than five hundred dollars, which is not enough to maintain one month's living expenses. He needs money, because the distribution of the film has a long way to go, not a day or two. He has to go to major film distribution companies, sell himself, and try his luck until a company appreciates his film and gives him a chance.
It takes time, maybe a month, maybe two months, maybe he runs for the first time to a Hollywood film company, and the company made a decision saying "we want this movie"; or he might have been to Hollywood Companies, those companies say "no".
And during this time, no matter how frugal and frugal, if there is no money to enter his account one after another, five hundred dollars will always be spent one day.
But Wang Yang didn't look for a job for the time being, because he had to do the post-editing of the movie first, which is what he has been doing in these days.
How important is the post-editing work of a movie? It can almost be said to be equivalent to shooting work. Editing is not simpler and easier than shooting, which is another job that requires patience. The film material from the shooting is selected, assembled, and then compiled into a smooth movie. The editing can be said to be the second creation of the entire work. Different lens combinations, time length, etc., the film effect is completely different.
If it's a big movie, you also need to consider a lot of things such as dubbing, soundtrack, color and so on. Therefore, the general post-work is very cumbersome. The more beautiful the results, the more time it takes to process.
However, "Smart-Ghost Shadow Recording" is a DV movie, and it is a pseudo documentary, so there is no soundtrack and no need to pay attention to the color of the picture. Wang Yang only needs to make a film by choosing good materials. The technical requirements are basically zero. He just needs to use Sony's own DV editing software. In Joshua's words, it is the five-year-old little Mary of his neighbor.
Wang Yang filmed nearly 300 minutes of satisfactory material, which included a lot of shots that were temporarily added, and most of them were temporarily added; most of them were shots with different performance effects, such as Rachel ’s smile when performing a certain content, He smiled nervously, he was satisfied, and he smiled with dementia. The editing work now requires him to make a choice, which can only be cut into a standard film length of about 90 minutes.
Of course, he also needs to add some black screens with only explanatory text between some scenes and time transitions of the movie in order to watch the movie.
In these few days, Jessica visited once, quietly watching Wang Yang's editing movie, stayed for a while, and left without wanting to disturb him. Zachary reluctantly returned to his previous life track, worked part-time in the supermarket, and tried his luck when he had the opportunity to audition; Rachel did not return to Toronto, she said that she had to wait for Wang Yang to cut the movie, first Time to read the finished product before leaving Los Angeles.
"Hey, it's seven o'clock?" Wang Yang, sitting in front of the computer, worked all day and accidentally looked at the time in the lower right corner of the screen, only to find out that it was more than 7 o'clock in the evening. He put down the mouse, stood up, stretched his waist, and punched a few punches. Then he suddenly felt hungry and went to the kitchen to find something to eat.
The new large freezer has been returned, and the kitchen is now back to its former state of collapse. He opened the wooden cabinet and took out a cup of instant noodles, tore out the hot water from the thermos. After a while, he held The flushed instant noodles came to sit in front of the broken sofa in the hall and ate hungrily.
At this time, the phone rang. Wang Yang thought it was Jessica's, but he took out his phone and saw that the caller ID was Rachel. Rachel? She has no habit of calling at this time. Wang Yang swallowed the noodles in his mouth, connected suspiciously, and said with a smile: "Hello, is this Rachel?"
"Hi, Yang, yes, it's me." It was Rachel's voice. She said hello and asked, "How is the movie cut?"
While chewing noodles, Wang Yang said, "It's okay, this job is a process of non-stop combination, just like you go to a clothing store to buy clothes, try this one, try that one, and then buy yourself satisfaction "He smiled, said with excitement:" Hey, I have cut most of it, and I expect you will see the final movie in two days. "
"Wow, is that right?" Rachel did not say "I am looking forward" next, but sighed slightly, "However, it will take a while for me to see it."
Wang Yangwen frowned, what happened to Rachel? He put the instant noodle cup down and asked with concern: "Are you going to leave Los Angeles? What happened?"
Rachel hummed, her tone was low, very worried and said: "My mother has acute appendicitis, so I'm going back to Toronto, tonight's plane." Wang Yang couldn't help but exclaim: "Oh, my God! Okay? Are you okay? "Rachel smiled softly, letting him reassure:" No problem, thank you for your concern. She is very good, she was also very energetic on the phone just now, that is, her abdomen is a little pain. The doctor said her appendix No perforation, no purulence, just simple appendicitis. It's okay, just a small operation. "
Wang Yang nodded and comforted her: "Well, don't worry too much, you know, the doctor must leave behind for him to talk. Now they say that the aunt is fine, then it must be fine." Qiu thanked: "Yang, I know, I'm fine." Wang Yang laughed: "OK, I will send it to you as soon as the movie is cut. By the way, what time do you take tonight flight?"
"Boarding starts at ten o'clock." Rachel replied. Wang Yang looked at the time, and it was only 7:30, so he asked, "Is it a flight at LAX (Los Angeles International Airport)?" After receiving a positive response from Rachel, Wang Yang stood up and smiled: "It's too late , I'll give you the machine. "Rachel gently" wow "and smiled" Thank you, Yang. But no, it's so late. "
Although Rachel said no, Wang Yang had made up his mind. During this period, Rachel helped him a lot, and he has been very grateful. Now that her mother is in trouble, she will rush back to Canada. As her friend, he cannot let Rachel leave alone. Wang Yang walked to the computer and turned it off and smiled, "Please, you said it was late, I have already set off."
"Oh!" Rachel smiled and heard that he was determined to come to the airport, and he felt warm in his heart. He nodded and said, "Then I am waiting for you in the waiting room, the second waiting room."
Turned off the computer, and Wang Yang hurriedly put on his trench coat, wearing sneakers, and asked, "Did you tell Zakari and Jessica that they? They don't know if they have time to come with me to give you."
"I have told them, you are the last person I notified." Rachel haha, and then said seriously: "Yang, just come, I don't want to disturb others."
"OK!" Wang Yang hung up the phone, took the wallet key and walked out quickly.
From the apartment to the Los Angeles International Airport, it is not by car, the best way is to take a taxi, but it needs to spend tens of dollars, Wang Yang is now a dollar for ten dollars, naturally he will not choose, he chooses It cost US $ 6 to get a bus to the airport.
The night view of Los Angeles is very beautiful, but as it leaves the city, there is nothing good on the highway. After more than an hour, Wang Yang finally arrived at the second waiting hall of LAX at nearly half past nine. .
In the lounge area in front of a boarding gate in the waiting hall, Wang Yang found Rachel. She was wearing a black dress and a gray velvet hat on her head. Her pale blonde hair appeared from the edge of the hat. She Seeing Wang Yang, he stood up and waved with a smile.
Got off the bus and ran all the way. Wang Yang couldn't help but gasp. He saw Rachel slow down and smiled: "Hi, Rachel! Fortunately, it's too late ..."
"Hi!" Rachel smiled slightly and looked at Wang Yang, who was stupid and gasping. He couldn't help but laugh, and took him to the chair to sit down: "Why are you running like this, I have more than half an hour Boarding, isn't it? "
"Oh, don't worry about this, I'm a sportsman." Wang Yang waved his hand. He looked at the small suitcase at the feet of Rachel and smiled: "Wow, I guess there is a finished paper hidden in it."
Rachel shrugged and said, "There are still four thousand dollars." Both couldn't help laughing, and Wang Yang smiled: "No, I guess not so much. You have to pay commissions and taxes. "The two laughed for a while, and Rachel said softly:" Seriously, Yang, I have gained a lot during this period, I have learned a lot, and I have met a few good friends. Before coming to Los Angeles this time, I used to choose between Los Angeles and New York, and then I chose Los Angeles. This was my most correct choice. "
Wang Yang pretended to be helpless, and said: "Well, let you be my heroine in the movie, which is also my most correct choice."
"Really, thank you!" Rachel smiled at him with a white smile, recalling the scene of the audition day, and said with a smile: "But on the audition day, I was thinking about going to see it, I never thought I would become a heroine. "She leaned over to Wang Yang a little and mysteriously whispered:" Yang, do you know? The poster you posted on the recruitment column is really ugly. At first, I thought it was deceptive information. "
Wang Yang said curiously: "Why do you believe me?" Rachel shrugged: "As soon as I saw you, I knew I wasn't cheating." Wang Yang asked, "Why?" Rachel smiled at him slightly. , Said: "You have a strong body, it will only appear on the sincere person." Wang Yang said with a surprised face: "Are you stupid?"
Rachel hit him with a smile and said, "No, don't make me laugh all day. What I want to say is impulsiveness. You are very passionate. At first glance, you are the one who really does things." Wang Yang shook his head and said: Qiu, you ca n’t judge people by their appearance, you will lose money.
Rachel spread her hands and smiled:
OK, but I rarely erroneously, this is a talent.

Both laughed, and Rachel asked with concern: "Yang, do you have any plans next?" After getting along this time, she also knew the general situation of Wang Yang, but what she didn't know was , Wang Yang only has less than five hundred dollars left.
Wang Yang's expression became serious, looking at the crowd in the distance of the waiting room, and said, "Next? After cutting the movie, I will go to Hollywood, sell myself, and try to distribute our movie to the big. The screen. This is my plan. "
Rachel nodded silently, looked at his face, and slowly said: "This is something that has never happened before. All you do is innovate. I know it must be difficult. Maybe no one will appreciate you, maybe Some people will laugh at you. But ... "She took a deep breath, exhaled, and encouraged:" Yang, you must maintain confidence! You can't abandon your enthusiasm and passion, that is the most precious, know ?"
"Well, thank you Rachel." Wang Yang nodded emphatically, and there was a fire burning in his heart. Rachel's words made him surging, yes, no matter how difficult the road ahead, he must maintain confidence! He smiled and said, "You can rest assured that I have already prepared for everything. There is nothing to sink me. You know, you can kill me, but you can't beat me!"
Hearing Wang Yang quote Hemingway ’s famous quote in
The Old Man and the Sea
and watching him look confident, Rachel could n’t help but smile and said,
I know, you are a tough guy.

"Then you too, go back to Toronto and continue to improve your acting skills." Wang Yang blinked at her and said, "Trust me, you will become a big star sooner or later." Rachel said with a smile. " Wow, this is really delightful. "
Now Rachel doesn't have the idea of ​​"I will be a big star sooner or later". If Wang Yang didn't show up, she wanted to continue her master's degree after graduating from York University. Is her teacher encouraging her to go to theater, film and television Development, she slowly walked onto the big screen.
The two chatted for a while, and unconsciously, the time came to almost ten o'clock. At this time, the standby hall sounded a broadcast sound reminding boarding: "Passengers of flight AC794, please start boarding ... Passengers of flight AC794, please start Boarding ... "As the radio sounded, the passengers waiting for boarding in the lounge area stood up one after another, saying goodbye to the friends who came to the airport and walked into the boarding gate.
Because the boarding time was nearly half an hour, Rachel and Wang Yang chatted for a while. When it was almost time, she stood up, dragged the suitcase, and said calmly: "I have to go."
Wang Yang also stood up, UU reading www.uukanshu. com nodded and said, "Rachel, all the way down."
Rachel looked at him, suddenly a little sad in his eyes, and asked, "Will we see you again?"
Wang Yang said with a grumpy smile, "Please, you say, it is now 1998, from Los Angeles to Toronto, it only takes seven or eight hours." That being said, he couldn't help but feel a little lost, maybe It was just normal emotions when they parted; maybe he was actually reluctant to leave Rachel; maybe they were really happy when they got along.
"Yes, the power of science and technology." Rachel smiled when she heard the words.
"Passengers of flight AC794, please start boarding, and five minutes to close the boarding gate ..." The sound of the broadcast sounded again.
Wang Yang looked at her and said, "You have to go." Spread your hands and hugged her gently, and smiled: "Rachel, I am very happy to know you."
"Me too, to be able to know you, this is the biggest harvest I came to Los Angeles." Rachel looked at him deeply and smiled: "Yang, goodbye!" As she said, she pushed her luggage to the boarding gate Walk around.
The two sweet dimples on her cheeks couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes. She didn't know when she would meet with Wang Yang after today. She remembered working hard for the movie together these days. Every day laughter and day Dancing in the bar ... I was about to walk into the boarding gate. She stopped and looked back at Wang Yang who was not far away, shouting: "Yang, I look forward to seeing our movie in the cinema. I Know, there will be that day, and we will see you then! "
She waved her hand and smiled, "Bye, Yang!"
Wang Yang smiled and waved his hand, watching her walk into the boarding gate, her figure disappeared at the corner, her heart was unspeakable, Rachel ... bye!
