Vol 3 Chapter 44: Harder road

White and slender fingers are constantly moving back and forth on the keyboard. Even if this is a special laptop, it will still make a slight sound, but all this will stop the determination of even the young girl to finish things in the shortest time, even if she is now Red eyes were very tired. With a long yawn, Angela, tired, finally stopped her job, picked up the long-cooled coffee next to her and drank it. Then she went to the bathroom and soaked the towel in cold water and covered it with a lid. On his face. But even when she returned to the front of the notebook, she still had some chaos in her head, so she gave up typing and pulled out the document to pull the easel over, drawing a shot on the white paper already on the lifting table. Although she can basically concentrate on the sub-camera because she always looks at the script and sometimes looks at the drawing paper, after all, she is already very sleepy, so she started to hang her head on the table after a while. "Damn." Angela whispered after touching her forehead against the lifting table and getting awake for a moment, so she stood up and stretched her limbs. She knows that this does not help her exhausted spirit very much. Maybe it will consume a small amount of energy. The best way is to go to bed now and sleep, but she still wants to take advantage of her inspiration. It's time to finish the last paragraph of that important section. The phone rang suddenly, and Angela, who was moving, couldn't help but regain her spirit. She picked up the phone in the past: "Hi, who are you looking for?" "Angie, it's me, you're fine Is it?
Came the voice of Ed Kam over the phone.
First of all, congratulations, I think you should read today ’s newspaper, the youngest Oscar ’s best director nomination, really amazing!

Thank you, but I Ended with Jack yesterday. He didn't close his eyes after the call. "Angela said tiredly. "What happened?" Ed's voice was clearly surprised. "It's no big deal, I've been catching the show. It's just, I have to finish it as soon as possible." Angela yawned, "I know why you called, Ed, I believe Jack has contacted you, what's the matter? Question? "" You've been ... yesterday ... today ... "Ai German sighed with a bitter smile." Okay, I just don't understand why you suddenly thought of making "Pianist" into a movie? It's not easy to master this subject. You have to know that even Spielberg took ten years to put "Schindler's List" on the screen! You are only eighteen years old, even though we all know you are very, very good, even if you Just getting nominated for an Academy Award for Best Director doesn't mean ... Hell, I don't know what to say, Jack told me that you actually want to complete the production and release before the end of this year ... God. "" Listen to me, Ed, since I chose to shoot "The Pianist," I must have my own reasons, and I definitely did not make a decision without reason, "Angela pinched the bridge of her nose, I have to make it this year. "" But ... but ... "Ed seemed to want to say something, but Angela interrupted him again:" I'm sure I can finish shooting within 4 months. And still at the normal shooting speed. Of course, considering that the post-time is more urgent, I can try to compress it for another month by overtime. The cost of employees in Eastern Europe is definitely much lower than that in the United States and Western Europe. Similarly, I have a fairly high degree of certainty to complete it at the end of the year-Jack has already told you these things, and I repeat it now, anyway, as long as the problem that money can solve is not a problem! "She paused after a pause. Solemnly said: "Similarly, I also said that if this movie loses money, I will earn ten times as much as I lose, and I can do it!" The Ed on the side smiled bitterly and said again: "Obviously, you have already decided." "Yes, if I can, I hope that the film department can cooperate with me to start preparations at any time. The latest flight time can't be more than mid-April. "Angela said, rubbing her face, and after a few minutes of concentration, she became more and more sleepy." So, let's go, goodbye. "Angela is not worried about Ai The German Society opposed anything. Although she didn't hold any position in the film department, let alone say that she has a seat on the board of directors, because almost all the money-making movies since the establishment of the film department came from her hands. This time it was also the same as Pixar. The two films produced at the same time were shortlisted for the best film, enough for her to have an unquestionable voice in the film department. She said that she made the "Pianist" after careful thought. Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is an indisputable fact to think carefully. Although it takes only a few minutes to get from the angry political correctness to changing his mind to call Sparrow, But many thoughts have turned several times in my mind like lightning. Make plans and move on. This is the bottom line that Angela set for herself when she started the initial planning. She knows exactly what she has come to. She also knows what she faces, so if you want to To achieve her goal, she must follow the established plan step by step. Because of this, she will be so shocked when she learns that she has been nominated for the best director for "American Beauty". The feeling beyond her control is definitely not beautiful. . But at this point, only remedies and adjustments can be found. This is not difficult. After the initial shock and the idea of ​​putting down the burden in advance was blocked, Angela only took a few minutes to decide
Your own direction, after all, there is nothing wrong with the whole plan, except that nominating the best director erased the original climbing process and caused everything to advance. Angela could have chosen to dormant and let herself slide back to the trough and wait for the opportunity to move forward to the crest step by step, but she chose another more difficult road: Since it is only one step away from the crest, keep it Take this height and step up when you need it! That's why she asked Spiro to go to Poland and let the film department begin the preparation of Pianist. Angela knew that she had done it a little earlier, but the original plan was to make this film in 2002. The previous ones, so it's not too early. Of course, it was still too early for her personally to make it in 2002. As Ed said, even Spielberg took ten years to put Schindler's List on the screen. And no matter how mature she is, she is still an eighteen-year-old girl in the eyes of others, not to mention that she has only directed four films so far. But Angela also has her own problems. She can't put two movies with the same theme on the screen for two consecutive years-if she can even keep them more than ten years apart-otherwise, people will value that one more. It is self-explanatory; besides, she can only learn about driving and driving through the two movies. It is also self-evident to choose which one is the first. However, since she dare to choose "Pianist", she is sure, and her growth in directorship after directing four films should not be underestimated. Directing a film 80 is communication, and 20 is skill, because if you can interact with people who know how to edit, with people who know how to light, with people who know how to perform, if you can interact with everyone you want and you think it is worth it Socializing. In my opinion you are a good director. This sentence was spoken by Spielberg. Angela can also be regarded as a deep experience. She has been practicing this sentence since "Rola Run", at least in terms of communication, she is doing well now, even if she still needs to be hone in skills, but Don't forget she is not making but copying! You should know that when shooting "American Beauty", the relevant sub-shots were drawn with hundreds of pages of drafts. This way to make up for the shortcomings, even if the original level cannot be reached, it will not be too far away. Besides, there is still a card that she did not play. Although shameless. In short, plan and move-so even if she stays up late to write the script, she still starts writing after completing "The Princess's Diary"-as long as she firmly holds this. Of course, because being nominated for the best director made her realize once again that it is impossible to let everything develop as she wants, so as long as she can do what she can do, even if she fails, she has nothing to say, in a sense This is one of the reasons she let go. Then continue. Meditating on this sentence, Angela leaned down again on the lifting table and began to draw a draft of the minute lens. Occasionally she also added her own thoughts, but after all, it has been running for almost 30 hours continuously, and she has concentrated on ten After a few minutes, the eyelids started to fight again. "It's time for you to rest, Angie." Annie's voice suddenly rang, letting Angela, who was about to hit her head again on the lifting table, raise her head and wake up slightly. "Annie? Why are you ..." Angela rubbed her eyes hard, but still couldn't stop drowsiness. "I knocked on the door, but didn't respond for a long time." Annie shrugged her face, all worried, "I think you should go to rest." "Wait a second, it will be fine soon." Angela smiled reluctantly, "Help Have I asked for leave? What did the school say? "" Of course I agree, although I am puzzled about your leave as soon as you start school, "Annie sighed." In short, the school has approved your leave request, so I think you I should go to sleep now! "" Okay, okay, go to bed right away, just a little more, I can't let go of the clues right away, "Angela said weakly," help me again Would you like to pour a cup of coffee? "Don't even think about it!" Annie rolled her eyes and finally got angry in her words: "I don't know why you write all night without sleep, just because of inspiration That would not last till now! You have been writing for more than twenty hours in a row. I just knocked on the door and you did n’t even respond! Even a workaholic ca n’t rest without it!
Going back and forth slightly Exciting Ni finish in one breath, to catch his breath but did not find Angela interfaces, turned and saw only dumbfounding found sitting in the chair Angela concave head fell back on the backrest askew actually had fallen asleep. "I said so much in vain." Annie muttered helplessly, then went to the chair and lifted Angela up to try to lift her to bed, but after all, Angela was two years older than her and even older than her Gao added that she was too tired to sleep and she was struggling when she supported her. Fortunately, Alizee passed by at this time because the door was not closed. Annie called her busy: "Lily, can you come and help me?" "What's wrong?" Alizee looked inside the room, Still an unshakable expression. "Someone doesn't care about their bodies working all night, and suddenly fell asleep until a few seconds ago," said Annie, holding Angela's upper body upset. "I have to get this guy as heavy as a pig to bed." Alizee poked her mouth and walked straight forward, holding Angela's legs and lifting the "pig" with Annie.
