"That is to say, if I agree to appear in "Little Ghosts and Thief", they will definitely consider my opinion?" Angela raised her cheeks with one hand, frowning slightly, "What is this, a deal?"
"It's okay to see it as a deal," Sparrow said, raising his hand to stop the girl from interjecting. "Angie, you can't get Disney to agree completely and unconditionally."
"I know, of course I know." Angela waved her hands exaggeratedly, "But even if it is a transaction, it should be equivalent, and their calculations are too precise!"
Looking at the other party's incomprehensible expression, the girl knew that she was talking too much. In fact, Disney couldn't possibly know that this was her "first" script, so she scratched her head and said nothing.
"Actually, I think you'd better read the script first, I think they are very sincere." The agent pointed to the folder on the coffee table with a smile, "You don't need to read it, just read the first page. already."
Angela turned it over with some doubts. It didn't seem to be anything special. It was also expected that Disney hired Chris Columbus to direct. While watching, the girl picked up her drink and was about to take a sip when a name jumped into her eyes.
Puchi! The juice in the mouth was squirted out by her, the bright red pulp splashed everywhere, and there was a big lump on the corner of the mouth. It looked like a blood-sucking bride who had just finished sucking blood, but the girl didn't have time to wipe the corner of her mouth, put down the cup and put her hands together. I grabbed the edge of the manuscript and looked at the names on it without blinking. One, two, three, four, hell! Disney is really a big deal!
"I said, they're sincere." Sparrow, who had just ducked to the side when the juice splashed, sat back again and handed the tissue to the girl.
Angela took it over and wiped the corners of her mouth, but there was dissatisfaction on her face: "This only means that they investigated me very clearly!"
"I don't think it's a secret, for the film company." The agent laughed. "So, are you going to say yes or no?"
The girl fell silent. The reason why she didn't want to participate in the performance of "Little Ghosts and Thief" was simply because it was her first original script. Although she kept saying that she was not afraid of failure, she still had to avoid it in her consciousness. However, she must admit that Disney has really caught her key this time. Faced with such a lineup, she couldn't say it even if she wanted to refuse.
"Did they all agree?" Angela asked with a headache.
"According to Disney it's--yes--there's only one person who hasn't answered yet, it's..."
"I know who it is. It's normal. It would be surprising if she agreed." The girl waved her hand, as if trying to drive her chaotic thoughts out. "Give me some time to think about it, please?"
"Of course," Sparrow nodded, "then let's talk about another thing, Warner has agreed to use their theaters, but only a few late-night stalls have seats, and not in major theaters."
"That's the only way?" Angela looked at her agent and clapped her hands after confirming that the other party was telling the truth: "Very good, these are enough!"
"That's it?" Sparrow was a little surprised. Although the girl asked him to negotiate with Warner about leasing the cinema, he didn't ask for anything, but he thought it was just talking, but Angela really didn't care.
"Wait and see, they will naturally adjust the schedule to a good position in a few days, and then expand to all theaters." Angela smiled like a little fox, um, a charming little fox.
The website of "Blair Witch" has already been established, and she can find very good programmers through Pixar, so the website is very well done, and it still fully shows the dark and weird side under the current limited resources, even with a few In the future, it will not be outdated - of course, the girl signed a non-disclosure agreement with them.
At the beginning, not many people came to visit. Even though Angela started the film club's classmates to promote it all over the Internet, she also secretly posted news on Pixar's website message board, but the situation still did not improve much, until the exploration. Discovery Channel airs clips about Blair the Witch.
After that, the website almost crashed. Fortunately, the girl had prepared more servers. Then countless people on the message board asked about the final fate of the three college students, and where to see the movie, or if there was a place to rent a videotape, etc. Naturally, after finishing the promotion, Angela planned to prepare for the release of "Blair Witch". She originally planned to cooperate with Disney. After all, she is most familiar with them in Hollywood and has the best relationship, but with Disney's continuous She got "Fate and Destined" and "Little Ghosts and Thieves", and she was very interested in "Brave to the Dead Island". Such a big appetite made her change her mind and didn't want to give them a cheap taste, so she turned to other companies, the first choice It's Warner.
"When making copies, tell them to make a few more copies, otherwise they will definitely be in a hurry later." Angela added another sentence after thinking about it.
"Are you sure that's it?" Sparrow still couldn't help it. Although he handled everything the girl did, he was very aware of the hype process of the whole movie, but he still didn't think the movie would sell well. It seemed to him that Angela was just playing again.
"Okay, so be it." Mr. Agent nodded, stood up and pointed to the folder on the coffee table, "If you decide, let me know."
Angela looked at the wet script in the corner and sighed with a wry smile.
"I will." The girl sighed and started to have a headache again. This decision is really hard to make.

As soon as I got out of the car, I felt the breeze blowing across my face, and the two still raging heat swept away a lot. Jessica took a deep breath, stretched, and seemed to feel a lot more comfortable.
"Jesse!" came the scream, and before she could react, a figure threw herself into her arms.
"Hey, Lindsay! You're here before me!" Jessica hugged the girl with a smile. The little girl who is almost 9 years old is getting more and more cute. Although there are some freckles on her face, it only makes her look cute.
"It's only a few minutes before you," the little guy gestured with his hands. "If I didn't happen to see you getting out of the car, I might have gone first."
"Actually..." Jessica peeked at Mr. Lohan who was chatting with her father not far away, "Maybe someone would want you to go in first."
Mr. Alba frowned slightly and answered Mr. Lohan's question in a nonchalant tone. Because of the relationship between the two girls, the parents of both sides also communicated and understood each other. For a person like Mr. Alba who served in the army and emphasized discipline and order, Mr. Lohan's drinking character was hopeless. Besides, it was vaguely heard that he had beaten his wife. So aside from basic etiquette, he didn't want to spend any more time with him.
Lindsay's expression darkened a little, her teeth gritted her lips, but then she showed a bright smile: "Forget it, it's nothing, let's go first, Angie may already be waiting for us."
"Yeah!" Jessica didn't say much, and dragged Lindsay to the Studio City.
The staff at the door immediately greeted two battery cars and took the two girls and the two fathers to the studio. Jessica and Lindsay kept chatting along the way. It gave the first staff a headache, and sighed directly in their hearts, two women really are a thousand ducks. Of course, it should be 500 now, and the girls are halved. This is a discount.
Studio 11 arrived quickly, visible through the open doors, and it had been laid out into a huge vault, which also included part of the office building attached to the outside, which is the magic of the film industry. What kind of scene you want, what kind of scene they can make!
"To be honest, I was very surprised when I found out that you were also playing one of the roles!" Lindsay got off the battery car, took Jessica's arm, and looked inside the studio with emotion, "I've never heard of it. Never thought that the three of us would make a movie together!"
"But don't we just do it now?" Jessica comforted and patted her hand, "I believe that we will have a different feeling when we watch this movie many years later."
"Definitely!" Lindsay waved her small fist, and then showed a self-indulgent smile—it was only cute—"Angie must be in there, just wait and see, I want her to have a good taste of my power." The little guy didn't notice that there was a hint of bitterness at the corner of Jessica's slightly upturned mouth. It's a pity that although Lindsay has conceived no less than ten ways to "torture" Angela in her head, none of them can be used, because Angela has not come to the studio at this time.
"Sure enough, she's a big-name star, and she doesn't even need to be punctual." Lindsay looked at the gate a few times and couldn't help complaining. She didn't blame her for having such a big resentment. , Angela only went out to play with them twice. After she went to Wilderlin to shoot a movie, it was another long journey. As a result, she could only contact them on the phone, which made Lindsay quite depressed. .
"Stop nagging, Lindsay, Angela must have something to do, and it's not time yet." Jessica was still comforting like a sister. For her, she wanted Angela to immediately appeared, and at the same time wanted her to be as slow as possible, very contradictory.
Lindsay didn't think as much as she did. She just wanted to hug Angela tightly and turn around, while watching her red ears under her tricks, only then would she feel happy.
Finally, two battery cars drove by the gate of the studio. Angela, who was still dressed simply, was getting out of the cars. Lindsay pulled Jessica and motioned her to keep silent. a surprise.
Jessica agreed funny, but just when Lindsay wanted to act, she was suddenly stunned. Two more girls got off the second battery car, talking and laughing with Angela, looking very close. Lindsay almost immediately focused her attention on the taller chestnut-haired girl. She was not pretty, but she had an attractive temperament and was very likable, but the little girl had no reason to feel from her. Here comes the threat!
