Chapter 37: select

Driving to Hollywood Boulevard, Wang Yang found a parking space to park the car, and quickly hurried to the place agreed with Jessica, the door of a clothing store. Wang Yang ran for a while on the bustling street, and in the distance saw Jessica standing there carrying a light blue handbag, he slowed down, took out his phone and pressed, said : "I saw you, look to the right."
Jessica turned her head and suddenly saw Wang Yang. She smiled and beckoned, saying, "I saw you too." She hung up the phone and walked over to Wang Yang.
"Hi, Jessica." The two approached, and Wang Yang greeted him, looked at the vertical signboard of the clothing store in front, and asked, "Did you buy anything?"
Jessica shook her head and said with a smile: "No, I just tried a few skirts, but I don't like it very much. I think jeans are more suitable for me." Wang Yang shrugged and said he had no opinion, Jessica He asked, "Yang, what are you doing with me? Did something happen?"
Yes, a very happy thing ... Wang Yang smiled in his heart, probably because he remembered a lot of memories of his childhood not long ago. Looking at Jessica, he was a bit childish and pretended with a serious expression: " Well, maybe ... "He looked around, and people came and went, and then said:" Come with me. "Then he turned to the road ahead and came to a small tree-lined ground.
Jessica was following him, and when he saw him with a sullen face, he suddenly picked up slightly. Is there any bad news? She frowned, smiling reluctantly: "Yang, what's wrong?"
"Jessica, it's actually about the heroine of" High School Musical. "Wang Yang continued to look heavy, and then said:" You have to be mentally prepared. "Jessica's smile became more far-fetched and said softly:" OK "Wang Yang took a deep breath and looked at her:" Jessica ... "He dragged his voice and suddenly laughed happily," You are the heroine! "
Jessica was dumbfounded, her eyes widened and anxiously said: "Really? You mean I got the heroine !?" Wang Yang smiled and said, "Yes, of course!"
"Oh my God! My God!" Jessica exclaimed, her breathing became fast, her face was incredible, and suddenly, she fell on Wang Yang all at once, and her handbag fell to the ground, her face excited. Red, said: "Yang, we will make a movie together! Great!"
"Oh, oh!" Wang Yang hugged her unexpectedly. Fortunately, he didn't fall because of his agility. He turned around holding Jessica and shouted with a smile: "Oh my god, how heavy!" After looking at them and turning around a few times, Wang Yang let her down.
Jessica looked at him and smiled. Her heart jumped up and down. She pulled her hair that was turned into a mess. She suddenly clenched her fist and smashed Wang Yang's shoulder. She smiled and said: "Please, Yang , You like scary! Just now I was almost scared to death by you, I thought I was eliminated. "
"Haha, scary is what I am good at!" Wang Yang laughed haha, a mischievous look succeeded.
Jessica rolled her eyes and couldn't help raising her corner of the mouth, exclaiming with a smile: "Oh my god, I will star in the heroine? Great!" She looked forward to this day has been too long, she has been since childhood At first, I was looking forward to the movie heroine who could be Yang. After entering the performing arts school, she felt that it would be realized soon; but she never received the letter from Yang, which made her feel hopeless for a time. Then she met Yang again, and now she got the heroine of "High School Musical"!
Thinking of these years, she could not help but sigh again: "God, am I dreaming?"
"No, this is true." Wang Yang laughed, bent down and picked up the blue handbag on the ground, handed it to Jessica, and said seriously: "Jessica, thank you for your response, you make me feel very Happiness. "He laughed again:" At least some people still care about the heroine, ha, don't they? "
Jessica took the handbag, black eyes glared at Wang Yang, and smiled: "Yang, I hate you! I will be so excited to sleep that night, and dark circles will come out tomorrow."
"Like a panda?" Wang Yang smiled and recalled authentically: "On the day of the Lions Gate's appreciation, I was too excited to sleep in the Santa Monica hotel that night, and then I sat on the balcony After watching the moon for a long time, my heart calmed down. "He raised his head and looked at the sky, as if returning to that night, the slight sea breeze, the quiet moon, he whispered:" Really beautiful. "
Jessica suddenly opened her eyes and proposed: "Yang, let's go to Santa Monica!" Wang Yang stared stupidly: "Now?" Jessica nodded enthusiastically, "Now! I think To make today even more special, now go to the beach and have time to watch the sunset!
Seeing her so excited, Wang Yang did not want to disappoint, and smiled:
OK, let ’s go, I also miss Santa Monica a little bit. "
The two picked up the car from the nearby parking space, and then went to the small city of Santa Monica to the west.
When they came to Santa Monica beach, it was close to dusk. At this time, there were not many tourists on the beach. Wang Yang and Jessica stepped on the soft sand and walked to a quiet place. Sitting down on the sand, enjoying the sea breeze, looking at the sun that is gradually setting down on the sea, they smiled at each other, and their hearts were filled with a very peaceful and comfortable feeling.
"It's so beautiful!" Jessica looked at the charming sunset drunkenly, and she suddenly raised her right hand, drew a cross holy sign, and said gratefully: "Thank God, thank you for giving us all these beautiful things."
Her piety made Wang Yang jump in his heart, so cute, he also read the sentence: "Thank God."
The two laughed at each other again, and Jessica looked at him, the sea and the sunset, and the seagulls flying in the sky. She remembered many things when she was a child and smiled softly: "Yang, do you remember? You said that you will become a director in the future, and I will also be an actor, and then you can act as the heroine of your movie. "
"Well, I remember, I was a director, and you were an actor." Wang Yang smiled at her and stretched his fist: "Hey, Jessica, come!" Jessica's eyes lit up, revealing clean without braces. Tooth, stretched his fist and touched him, both of them said with a smile: "Finally!"
After the fist was over, the two looked at each other and both calmed down, and their hearts throbbed, speeding up abnormally. Seeing Wang Yang staring at her without blinking, Jessica felt a long absence of shame and confusion in her heart. She avoided her eyes and asked softly, "Why?"
"Oh! It's nothing." Wang Yang shook his head, looking at the sunset that had been swallowed halfway by the sea level, and smiled: "Just think your eyes are like crystals, haha."
Jessica sighed in relief, but was very disappointed. God, what happened just now? ! Hearing Wang Yang ’s praise again, she smiled, remembering the phrase
Look at your eyes like a crystal, this is a pair of beautiful women ’s eyes!
She remembered these words and always remembered, That was the first time she was praised by her peers, she gained confidence and gained a lot from those words. After looking at Wang Yang, she laughed mockingly: "Yang, I think of my braces."
"Actually, the braces are pretty cool." Wang Yang shrugged, looking at her sweet smile, and suddenly asked: "Hey, Jessica, how is Jack doing recently?" Jessica said blankly: "Jack? Which Jack? "Wang Yang laughed." Oh, Jack Frank? "
Jessica raised her eyebrows in disbelief and tilted her head. "Jack-Frank? He's taking classes at UCLA every day. I don't know very well." She smiled indifferently and said, "Yang, why ask this "Do you think she has anything to do with Jack Frank?"
"It's nothing." Wang Yang shook his head and smiled, "It's just an appointment ... Oh, it's nothing. It's just that I suddenly thought of him. This is just a joke."
Jessica looked at him strangely. Is it an appointment or a joke? Josh ... Joshua! Is that what Joshua ’s guy talked about? She was about to say something, but she heard Wang Yang yell at her, her eyes were burning, and she suddenly realized what she was expecting, and her heart was expecting and nervous again.
"Jessica!" There was an impulse in Wang Yang's heart, looking at her. When that sentence came to his mouth, he would say it. Suddenly, a face flashed in front of him. It was so clear that his heart was tight, and his hand grasped the soft sand underneath. The words swallowed back suddenly. This is not the right time, not now! He grabbed a handful of sand and smashed it on Jessica. He jumped up with a laugh and ran to the beach.
Jessica froze, that heart fell down, a moment of disappointment, is she thinking too much? She looked at Wang Yang, who was running farther and farther, shook her head, stood up and chased up, shouted with a smile: "Yang, you stop me! You ..."
After watching the sunset at the beach, the two had dinner at a restaurant by the sea and drove back to Los Angeles.
By the time Jessica came home, it was more than nine o'clock in the evening. She carried her handbag and hummed to open the door. When Danny ran over, she excitedly circled around her. Jessica squatted down with a smile, stroking Danny's neck and said, "Hi, Danny, good evening." Danny's tongue stretched out long, and it looked cute as if smiling. She patted Danny hard again and smiled happily: "Danny, are you happy for me? Hmm?"
"Is it Jessica? Are you back?" Cathy's voice came along with the footsteps.
Jessica stood up and walked into the room, shouting excitedly: "Mom, it's me, I'm back. I'll tell you good news ..." She entered the house and saw the staff in the living room were neat, dad Mom, Joshua, and Ms. Miranda were there, and she smiled and greeted them: "Hi, everyone."
Mark-Alba sat on the sofa, frowning, and said seriously: "How late is it to come back and turn off the phone? You make everyone worry about you!"
"Oh no!" Jessica screamed in surprise. She and Yang were "dating" just now, and she didn't want to be disturbed by the messy phone call. She took out her phone from her handbag, turned it back on, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I just turned it off and forgot to turn it on." As she said, she threw out her tongue and held Cathy's arm, laughing: "But I can I told my mother that I will be back later. "
At this time, Cathy patted her daughter's palm and smiled: "Jessica, Miranda has been waiting for you to come back for a long time." Jessica looked at Miranda on the sofa in doubt and said, "What's wrong?"
"Jessica, a very good news!" Miranda over there stood up and said happily: "Mr. Fred made the decision, you will become the heroine of" The Hand of Leisure "!"
The heroine of "The Hand of Leisure"? ! Jessica froze. She stared at her mother, then at Joshua, and exclaimed: "Oh, my God, really?" Cathy nodded with a smile, and Mark Alba With a slight smile, Joshua clapped hard and whistled a few times, ha ha and said with a smile: "Jessica, this is true, you are going to develop!"
Miranda came over and hugged Jessica happily, sighing: "You got a very rare opportunity. Jessica, this will be a turning point in your acting career, you will succeed." , She smiled: "Tomorrow we are going to talk about the contract."
But when Jessica reacted, she thought of the issue of the schedule and shook her head: "No, I can't play" The Hand of Leisure "anymore." She looked at everyone with excitement and said, "Do you know? Young decided to make me the heroine of "High School Musical!"
"Wow, really !?" Joshua heard the news and suddenly bounced off the sofa. I can't believe it: "Jessica, you got the heroine of" High School Musical "?" Jessica Shrugged proudly. Tao: "I think so." Joshua sighed repeatedly, "Oh my God," and said, "You are selected by" Hands of Leisure ", and you are also selected by" High School Musical ". What luck did you go?"
Mark Alba and Cathy were both happy and worried; Miranda's face flashed helplessly, she held Jessica's shoulders and said softly: "Jessica, don't rush to choose which movie Let's analyze the decision, please? "She and Jessica came to the sofa and sat down. She looked at Jessica and analyzed:" Let's talk about "The Hand of Leisure" first. It invests 30 million yuan. , Do you understand what this production cost means? It means the determination of the Colombian company, the film has not yet started, but its release date has basically been set, Mr. Fred told me that it will be next Friday It will be released in the month, and according to plan, there will be more than 1,500 theaters in the first week. "
Jessica frowned and said, "I ..." Miranda interrupted her, holding her hand, and said, "Jessica, listen to me first, Rodman, the director of" The Hand of Leisure "- Mr. Fred, he is not a newcomer. He has fully demonstrated his talents before he can get investment from Columbia. "The Hand of Leisure" is a work he has prepared for several years, he is full of confidence. If you are As a heroine, you will become a new star in the movie world! "
"Are you sure?" Joshua murmured over there.
Seeing Jessica's brows getting tighter and tighter, Miranda smiled slightly and continued to persuade: "Okay, let's talk about" High School Musical ", it invests 5 million, and as far as I know, no film company has Interested in cooperating with the flame film, it has no release date and no release plan. But this aspect is only second, and most importantly, this is Wang Yang ’s first film film, Jessica, and his "Ghost Record" is a creation It ’s a miracle, but that ’s a DV movie, and who said there ’s no luck? But film movies are another world, you know this, Wang Yang has no filming experience, he is just an 18-year-old young man, he takes things It ’s too simple to think, and it ’s not so easy to make a school song and dance film. "
Miranda sighed and shook her head: "I have to say that" High School Musical "is very likely to fail. If you participate in this movie, I am not saying that your acting career will end, but you have lost" Opportunity of the Hand of Leisure! "She said nervously and concernedly:" Jessica, you have to understand that this is a very, very good opportunity, it is not always there, you can not grasp this opportunity, you Your life may change to another way. As the heroine of "Hands of Leisure", as it succeeds, you will become a new star, you will receive more film appointments, and you will appear in blockbusters; "High School Musical", your future is very uncertain, and the biggest possibility is to become the heroine of a bad film. Without a new film appointment, continue the audition of the supporting role and wait for the next opportunity.
After saying this, Miranda gently embraced Jessica and said gently like a mother: "Jessica, you need to be more mature and look at your future rationally."
After listening to Miranda ’s analysis, Jessica was very confused and a little shaken.
The Hand of Leisure
seemed to be better for her future, but she had always been looking forward to a movie that could be performed ... she I also agreed to Yang, how can I suddenly go to another movie! She shook her head slightly and said with a trembling voice: "I can't ..."
Knowing that she began to hesitate, Miranda sighed in relief, thought about it, and persuaded: "I know you have a good relationship with Yang, but I believe he will not blame you. As a good friend, He will be happy for you. You have a better chance, you can easily succeed; and his "High School Musical" is not necessary for you, I want to participate in the audition will not be you alone? Jessica? You succeeded, if Yang succeeded, we are happy together; if he fails, you do n’t have to take responsibility, but as a friend, you can comfort him, do n’t you? "
Miranda could see Jessica ’s intentions and said:
If you want to star in his movie, you can play a small supporting role in it, the kind of role that can complete the filming in only one day.
She laughed:
And You mainly shoot "The Hand of Leisure", okay? "
"No ... I don't know ..." Jessica bit her lip, her heart cluttered, and she looked at the opposite father and mother for help.
Mark Alba said lightly: "Jessica, this is your own life, you choose." Cathy gave her daughter an encouraging smile and said: "Jessica, you know, mom always supports you."
"Oh, if it was me, I would choose" The Hand of Leisure "! Joshua snorted and said in a strange way:" Wow, Columbia, 30 million investment, more than 1,500 The premiere theater is so appealing! After shooting it, you can become a superstar! Is it necessary to consider the bad movie "High School Musical", you say Jessica? "
Jessica heard his satire, and asked blankly: "Joshua, what do you want to say ..."
Joshua suddenly stood up on the sofa, spread her hands, and said angrily: "Please, Jessica, I don't know why you have to think about it. Will" High School Musical "be a bad movie? Will it not succeed? "He shrugged and said," Now you don't believe him. "
"I ..." Upon hearing these words, Jessica's face suddenly turned pale, and there was a burst of cold sweat. Joshua was right. Why did he hesitate so much? Does she believe in Yang? Do you think "High School Musical" will fail? She suddenly remembered Eliza Dushku's choice. Why can a stranger trust Yang so much, but she can't?
She remembered her promise when she was a child, remembered the phrase "Finished", and remembered the joy of being on Santa Monica Beach in the afternoon. She had just been with Yang and happily looking forward to shooting "High School Musical", but turned around here Hesitating?
"Jessica, believe me! You will see, but I need your support!" The familiar voice seemed to ring in my ears. Jessica suddenly felt ashamed. She hated herself a little. She felt like Like a stupid and annoying person, if she chooses "The Hand of Leisure", even if Yang forgive her, she will not forgive herself even if UU reads www.uukanshu.com. She believes that Yang will succeed, and that "High School Musical" will succeed, and they will share the joy of success together; even if it fails, she and Yang will bear the responsibility together and face the failure together, no big deal!
Jessica took a long breath and announced, "I will star in" High School Musical! "
Joshua immediately cheered and said, "Oh, support! Jessica, I absolutely support your determination!" Both Mark Alba and Cathy gave their daughters a smile of encouragement and said nothing.
"Oh, my God! Jessica, listen to me ..." Miranda's face changed, and she wanted to say something. Jessica stopped her and said preemptively: "No, Miranda, needless to say, I will not change this decision anyway." Miranda covered her forehead angrily and said, "Why? Because of you Heyang is a good friend? "
Thinking of watching the sunset on the beach, Yang almost wanted to say something, maybe not just a good friend ... Jessica smiled sweetly and said, "Yang chose me, I chose him, it's done. . "
Miranda also wanted Jessica to change her mind, angrily said: "Jessica, you are responsible for yourself, you can not ruin your future! Do n’t be so self-willed, if you choose" High School Musical ", you will I will regret it. "
"I won't regret it. My choice must be correct! Yang will make the movie better than" Hands of Leisure "! I believe him!" Jessica's tone was full of confidence and firmness, she stood up And said to Miranda: "I'm a little tired, good night." Then she walked upstairs.
God! Miranda closed her eyes helplessly.
