Everything is under control, that's how Angela feels, and for good reason.
Although Kate and Jessica met unexpectedly during the day, but under her skillful guidance - well, maybe it was more luck, in short, nothing worried happened, even after meeting Britney And Christina, they're focused on Angela's record deal.
This was not specially arranged by Disney, but the two girls did feel lost and sad about the possibility of Angela leaving, but this problem was solved again when they put their younger siblings to bed at night.
It would be impossible to say that Britney and Christina had no influence on her. After all, she was the one who pushed them together, and being lazy in her own music career really influenced her judgment - nostalgia is actually lazy. a way. So as Annie said, she actually had a decision in her heart, or a bias from the beginning - this is different from last year - but she didn't realize it until the time to put the little ones to sleep It's not until I really understand it, so Disney's luck is really good.
But this is the only thing really under control. Angela knows very well that as time goes by, it is very difficult for Kate and Jessica not to find out about each other's relationship, not to mention that there is another one in New York. Natalie, who can never let herself go! It is impossible to rely on luck forever, but it is also a fool's dream to want to be completely in your own hands.
This perception is especially evident when the girl wakes up the next morning. The two little guys who slept well beside her last night were completely different the next morning. The two children sandwiched her between them. Buried his head on her chest, while Ike was against her back, with his four legs draped over him—this was a common occurrence, but this time, Willie was holding the two balls of her chest with both hands, and her head Completely buried in between, drooling soaked a large area of the pajamas.
No wonder I had a spring dream last night! Angela, who woke up, thought angrily. Fortunately, her body's reaction was not too great, but she still hurriedly got up and went to the bathroom to clean it up. What made the girl sigh slightly was that she couldn't remember who she was making out with in the dream - it wasn't like this before.
If you can't think of a result for some things, then don't think about it. Angela can only do this, and turn her attention to other aspects, such as the new album or something.
Now that he has decided to stay at Disney, Sparrow can naturally let go of the negotiations. What should be fought is to fight for, and the final result is that after changing the way, Disney signed Angela's three album contracts. , at the same time gave her more autonomy, and the most important university tour is not less than two times before the end of the contract, but the route time and place must be approved by Angela, otherwise the girl has the right to refuse!
Such contracts are rare, but Disney doesn't care, it doesn't touch their bottom line. Besides, everyone knows that Angela's value is not only in music, and Warner, who has lost again, has only regrets. .
The next step is to prepare a new album. Because of the previous negotiations and a series of other things, it is already mid-May when preparations start. If you don’t hurry up, the annual fixed summer film release period will have to be postponed. If it is delayed by 9 month, then you can't compete at this year's Grammys.
To Disney's surprise. Preparations have just started. Angela has already sent ten songs. And she has maintained her usual level and changeable style, and she did not prepare in vain before.
Seeing the producer behind the glass, Todd Ainart, waving to himself, Angela stopped singing, hung the headphones on the shelf and walked out of the studio.
Although Todd Ainart is also a well-known music producer in Hollywood, it is the first time for the two to cooperate. Disney hired Todd to work on Angela's new album, but it's not a single song from the new album.
"How is it?" Angela walked over to Todd, who had a mustache and short curly hair. The other party raised his finger and shook it, still listening to the previous recording carefully, before taking off the headphones after a long while: "And the previous In comparison, the emotional differences are not very different, they are all perfect, but the singing is slightly different, and it is difficult for me to say which is better."
The girl didn't answer. After picking up another pair of headphones and putting it on herself, she motioned Todd to replay everything she had recorded several times. After a few minutes, she took off the earphones, pinched her chin and pondered, and said, "The difference is really not big, but I still feel that there are some things that are not the best. Remember what we discussed before, Tuo De, don't use too much vibrato, try to make the sound as ethereal and soft as possible, but it seems to be missing something."
"Less explosiveness!" Todd, who was also thinking, suddenly said, Angela's eyes lit up but did not interrupt, and he continued to say: "The following section is the climax of the climax of the whole song, so the next Inevitably, the strong, life-and-death feeling must be erupted violently, and the previous paragraph did not mean that it was about to erupt in the latter part."
The girl nodded again and again, Jiang was really old and hot, she just had a concept, and the other party had already seen it.
Just as she was about to speak, there was a sudden knock on the door. An assistant next to her hurriedly got up and opened the door. James' assistant, Matthew, came in. He nodded to Angela with a wry smile: "Angela Miss, can you come over now, Mr. James has been waiting for a long time."
long time? 10 minutes at most! Angela stood up sullenly: "Then, I'll go take a look first, Todd. I'll discuss it in detail when I get back, okay?"
"Of course!" Todd made a please gesture.
Yes, that's right, they're working on My Heart Will Go On in James Cameron's studio right now, and the soundtrack for the movie was all done at the end of April and passed with James too, and then the recording of the theme song started because James The obsession with the perfect movie made Angela want to do better, so the recording was very slow, and Celine Dion put a lot of pressure on her.
The girl took a lot of thought to figure it out. When Celine Dion sang, she was like a bystander, telling everyone about the love between Jack and Ruth; then Angela put herself into Ruth and sang in the mood of the protagonist - anyway, for now Speaking of which, no one can understand this story better than her - Celine's voice is low and magnetic, so she will give up the competition and make her voice more plastic! In addition, the difference in the vocal range has become very small through her continuous efforts, and Todd has just woken her up again. As a young and young self, she is absolutely explosive, so Angela is confident to make "My Heart Eternal". 》 Become your own classic!
"I heard that the special effects didn't go well, is that true?" asked Matthew after walking down the aisle. According to the information she knew, James reached out to Fox again, making Fox, who was already relieved, seem to be being After knocking on the sap, I couldn't react for a long time.
You must know that after the additional investment of 2, there is still a considerable budget for post-production and special effects after all the shots are shot. Fox has been reassured a lot, but they did not expect that James, who was burning money, would actually Spent the remaining 7000 investment!
This is not surprising, Angela still remembers watching the special effects of "Titanic" that cost $1 million at the time. After 2000, you only need to be obsessed. Basically, if there is any flaw, it will be overturned and redone, and naturally it will cost money. Like running water, isn't there an ATM machine like 20th Century Fox anyway
"One thing, it's actually mainly about money. Mr. James is asking Fox to increase investment. If they promise, it will be completed soon, but you know they are all businessmen..." Matthew snorted softly with a look of disdain on his face .
Angela was a little funny in secret, but she didn't say anything. She was a little envious of James in this regard. She has such loyal supporters. If she becomes a director one day, can she have such a person by her side
The space in the production room is small, and the air is a little dirty, which made the girl who came in frown slightly. In fact, the room is still full, but now it is full of computers, TVs, VCRs, and so on. Unable to call out the equipment, James pointed at the screen between the two staff members.
His iconic beard is messy, deep and shallow, and his cheeks have been sunken in. It looks sloppy, but he is full of energy, and his loud voice can be heard in any corner of the room. Hearing: "No no no, this looks too soft, this is a boat, not a marshmallow, I want it to be like a branch, snap, crisp!"
Angela couldn't help sighing in her stomach. She had to admire the tyrant on the set. Rachel and Leonardo were finished shooting and they could go back to rest, but James was in charge of every production, so To hell with the guys who say Titanic's success was accidental, he has to do better himself!
The girl didn't know how much hair James lost because of her idea, because James came to her to discuss adding the soundtrack to the picture. In fact, James himself had already made a decision, but Angela's soundtrack was very good to him She is also a screenwriter, so he simply asked a girl to come over, nominally to discuss, but whether to listen or not is another matter.
But Angela has to point fingers sometimes. James has different opinions, so he has to argue with her, to make the old guy very upset, but he found the girl, how can he drive others back for no reason? And Angela will apologize as soon as she realizes her inadequacy, but what should be argued is still arguing.
"Do you think you know more than anyone else? Miss Mason! Do I need you to tell me, is it inappropriate to include this paragraph here?" The biting "Miss Mason" expressed that James was very angry, and for a time let the production studio The people inside were silent.
"Of course not, James, I'm just making suggestions from my point of view. I don't think I know better than you, but I want to have other opinions as a reference. Maybe you can think perfectly." The girl didn't panic at all, With a faint smile.
James glared at her for a long while, his tense face finally relaxed, he covered his forehead with a wry smile: "I'm sorry, Angie, you know..." He gestured to explain.
"It's okay, I know you're under a lot of pressure, but I think you'll surprise everyone." Angela shrugged and added in her heart, I'll surprise everyone too!
"I will never deny this." James laughed.
At this time, Matthew came in from outside again: "Mr. James, Mr. Bucklot and Mr. Harris of Fox are here."
"Understood, invite them to the office, I'll be right there." Although the tyrant's tone was calm, his dissatisfaction was still fleeting, and it seemed that the two sides were still at a stalemate on the matter of additional investment.
"Okay, I'm leaving. If you don't come back for a long time, you can go and record "My Heart Will Go On" first." James adjusted his clothes, and after it didn't look so bad, he left with Matthew. go out.
Angela, who was temporarily idle, was not familiar with the several post-production staff next to her. After watching their production, she waited for more than ten minutes. Seeing that James had not come back, the girl decided to go back first. .
After saying hello to the person in charge of the production studio, the girl left the direction and walked towards the recording studio. Before she could walk a few steps, there was a burst of hurried and messy footsteps behind her. It was obvious that the person was very upset.
Angela turned her head to see who it was, and with a whimper, a man with a livid face quickly walked past her, and another man followed closely behind him with a wry smile.
Although it was only a short moment, the girl could still see who it was. The one in front of him with a livid face was Bucklot, the general manager of Fox, and the one who was chasing after him with a wry smile was Harris, the production manager of "Titanic". I have met several times before. Bucklot is a well-mannered person, but he walked by in such a hurry that even Angela ignored it. It can be seen how angry James is.
Isn't it just additional investment, even if it reaches 300 million, you can make a lot of money. Angela, who has foresight as a reincarnator, shrugged needlessly. She wanted to make private investment, but it really doesn't make much money. Investing 50 million to get a 50% profit is not bad, and it has to pay taxes. , she is not like Fox can sell peripherals.
Turning a corner and about to reach the recording studio, Angela suddenly saw Bucklot standing at the window of the stairwell of the safety exit, holding a mobile phone and saying something excitedly. Harris was standing beside him with a helpless look on his face.
The girl shook her head, and was about to leave, when suddenly something moved in her heart, if she remembered correctly, maybe... Angela immediately sneaked up to the door, and pushed open a crack, and Bucklot's roar immediately blew like a storm came in:
"That bastard said it's not going to come out in July anyway, what can I do? You tell me, McCann, what are we going to do if it doesn't? I just know I'm about to be pushed by that bastard James Cameron. Gotta go sell ass!"
