Maybe it was because she was intimidated by Angela, or she just played well, this time the shooting was over, so the girl fulfilled her promise and ended work early. In fact, she did it for a reason. Tomorrow is the weekend everyone will be off work, even some training, and she should have gone to see it yesterday.
"I'm going to shoot scenes 45, 57, and 68 and 69 next Monday. At that time, I need a wooden house that is a little older, but it must be in the center of the town, and the props and environment arrangements must be in place." When the silver-grey Rolls-Royce drove to the side and stopped, Angela was still talking about work with the assistant director Matthew and several assistants.
"Ms. Mason, when Mr. Tucker checked the props, he found that the two rings in the main shooting had obvious cracks, and I am afraid they need to be remade." One of the assistants said at this time.
"Remake?" The girl frowned, "Tomorrow is the weekend, but it's going to be used on Monday... well, between reshooting after skipping those few shots and paying Plyton overtime, that cost bigger?"
An assistant took out a calculator and gave the answer: "Not much."
"Then pay overtime, there is no need to waste time." Angela made a decision, "Is there any problem?"
"If I can, I would like to know if I can bring my little niece to visit the set on Monday?" Steve's voice suddenly interjected, and after taking off his makeup and dressing up, it still looks very pleasing to the eye, "she But your fans, you know, it's summer vacation, and the kids are somewhat over-energized."
"As long as she doesn't dismantle the studio, she can stay as long as she wants." The girl smiled and spread her hands.
"I think Kelly will be very happy, thank you." Wan Nian old supporting role nodded, "Then I'll leave first."
After waving goodbye to him and making sure that there were no other problems, Angela, who was about to get in the car, was blocked again. Many young men, women and children who had been waiting for a long time handed over posters or notebooks. During this time in the town, many Fans will be waiting on the set to come forward to sign autographs after filming. The girls are basically open to anyone who comes, especially those who came from downtown Los Angeles after hearing the news. When there are not many people, she will chat with them. A few sentences or simple games with the kids.
After the urban drag racing incident, her popularity dropped a lot, but after the TV station reported her volunteer labor on a reality show, the public's support immediately reached a new height! Think about Angela's identity and family background and her achievements, such a girl can seriously clean the toilet and floor, take care of the elderly or children from the heart, and even stop a restless mentally retarded child, His face was blue for several days after being punched so hard.
My mother was very distressed for this, but Angela still acted like a normal person. She completed two hours of voluntary labor earnestly and low-key every day. She always smiled and said nothing in the face of reporters' questions, so even if there were tabloids, it couldn't stop more. People like her.
In fact, even Sparrow, who arranged all this, did not expect such a result, or no one thought that Angela, who should be the type of pampered girl, would do so well, except for the first few days. .
Only Angela herself knows that she complains to Annie every day after she finishes her work, and occasionally acts like a spoiled child with her mother. Speaking of which, it is also thanks to her mother's cultivation since childhood. Although the housework cannot be said to be first-class, it is not bad, and it is more important. The main thing is that he can always maintain his demeanor, even if it is a little bad at first, but after a few times, he will get used to it.
"Have you packed up yet?" After dealing with FANS patiently. Only then did Angela realize that Jordana was waiting by her side, dragging a suitcase, "I hope you didn't wait too long."
"It doesn't matter, it's also very interesting to see you sign autographs for fans." Xiao Qiao said with a smile.
"Really?" The girl blinked, her arms deliberately covering her chest and pretending to be alert, "Will there be a lot of things popping out of your hands all of a sudden?"
"Don't worry, everything you need has been signed." Jordana raised the corners of her mouth, spreading her hands and moving her fingers.
"Well, I saw it, and it's very clear." Angela opened the car door for her, "Get in the car."
Born in Panama City, Joe moved to London for two years and Rio de Janeiro until the family moved to New York at the age of 6. Her father is a banker and her mother is a model. Although I have a house in Los Angeles, I rarely come to the West Coast because I live in New York for a long time. This time, her mother came with her. She was supposed to drive to pick her up this afternoon, but Angela ended the filming ahead of schedule, and she was on the way to the Pixar film department, so she brought her along by the way.
"It's another weekend," Angela sighed after the car started, and then took out a large pile of letters from the backpack in the car: "There are so many letters I forgot to come."
"Are you always so busy?" Jordana tilted her head, "I mean I'm so busy that I don't have time to read letters."
"Of course not, I just don't like being distracted at work - well, this job should be directed specifically, because I need to think about what those shots should look like in actual shooting." The girl replied, flipping through the letter. .
"It's amazing, I'm still working hard on my homework and acting skills. You can already do so much." Xiao Qiao sighed and looked at Angela with one hand on her cheek, "Genius Angela, can you tell me Why are you so good?"
"If I tell you, can you keep it a secret from others? Mass media, good friends, parents and relatives, all of them?!" The girl looked at her and asked seriously.
"Of course I can!" Xiao Qiao immediately raised her hand and vowed, so Angela moved closer to her ear and her tone became extremely serious: "I can too!"
Jordana's face immediately stepped down, and she couldn't help laughing. She was about to speak when the girl exclaimed: "Hey, it's surprising that there is a letter from Lily."
She raised the envelope and waved to the bodyguard sitting in the co-pilot: "Ryan, guess what, how many words will Lily use this time?"
Angela started writing letters to Alizee at the end of February, and the little girl didn't start to write back to her until mid-February. There was one letter almost every week, and the reply was extremely short. There were only a few big words on a piece of paper. What I hate is don't harass me or I don't want to talk to you. Pu Guanshui knows but he can't do anything about it, so he can only shrug when he asks the girl.
"Is she very young?" Xiao Qiao interjected at this time, "I mean she just started learning words, is that so?"
"Of course not." Angela laughed, but thinking about Alizee's family situation turned silent again.
"Did I say something wrong?" Jordana looked at the girl strangely.
"It's nothing," Angela smiled again, then opened the envelope, "Let me see what words Lily used this time."
When the light blue letterhead was unfolded, the girl was stunned, and a line of delicate handwriting appeared in front of her eyes. The content was only about 3 or 4 lines, but the title at the beginning and the inscription at the end were very formal, not like before. rude.
"Dear Angie, I hope you can be happier. According to your description, Mrs. Mason is recovering well, so you don't need to worry too much. It's all right after all. Sincerely, Alizee." Angela read it out softly, and then slightly With a sigh, she probably knew what was going on, because she had to write two letters to her every week, so the girl recorded what happened around her like a diary and told Lily who was far away in France, including the racing incident!
Perhaps because writing a letter to Alizee has become an obligation, Angela described in detail her feelings and feelings at the time, as well as her thoughts on public apology and social service in the future, which probably made Lily feel a little bit.
"It seems that the situation is developing for the better." Pu Guanshui said at this time.
"I hope so." The girl nodded, then looked at Xiao Qiao, who was confused, and thought for a few seconds before saying, "It takes a long time to talk about this..."
Ridley Scott listened carefully to a young man's explanation. The old man was not sure whether the other party's translation was correct. He was already a little confused, but he could understand the basic things. To be honest, he never thought that he would come to direct this film. Although he directed "Ambition with Me", which was released at the beginning of the year, although the box office was good, it was criticized by film critics for being disfigured. Ridley, who was a little disheartened, took a break Weeks later, I was planning to work with my brother Tom Scott as a producer temporarily, and at this time, the newly established film department of Pixar extended an olive branch and invited him to direct "The Matrix"!
It's hard to describe Ridley's mood at that time. The script of "The Matrix" is not very imaginative. It is difficult to see this from the competition among major film companies. At the same time, I have thought about how I would direct if I were to change to myself. But Angela has never had the intention of handing it over to anyone, even though the script is well known in Hollywood. Of course, after Pixar announced the establishment of the film department, everyone knew about Miss Genius' plan, and then he received the invitation, and he agreed immediately.
If it was a surprise at the beginning, he was shocked when he got the complete script. Angela sandwiched the outline and basic points of the latter two parts.
In the script of the first film, this huge structure and imagination are enough to make any director admire it, not to mention those who do not mention the names of the characters with deep meaning, those whimsical scenes depicting the future, There is also thinking about the relationship between man and machine, and the method of interpreting procedural conflict with kung fu.
It wasn't until this moment that Ridley felt that Angela's title of Miss Genius was worthy of her name!
"Please tell him if I can, if I can, can I see the fight scene based on the blueprint." Ridley said to the young man who was acting as a translator at this time. He said that the blueprint was part of the fight drawn by Angela. In the picture, the characters are very simple but the movements are very complicated. The girl also marked the main points in both English and Chinese.
The young man had a few words with the tall, thin man with a fierce face beside him before answering Ridley: "Master Yuan said that in order to achieve this effect, props must be used, such as using a wire to hang people to the ground. Air gestures, if you insist, there is a set of movements that can be performed now, and Master Yuan wants to ask who designed this movement?"
"Who else? You have lived in Los Angeles for a long time, so you should know who it will be, Tiger?" Ridley chuckled, and he could see that he liked the young man he called "Tiger".
"Miss genius Angela Mason?" The young man raised his eyebrows in surprise and shook his head inexplicably. Master Yuan said that although many of these movements are relatively jerky, it can be seen that he is someone who knows some kung fu... Miss genius still kung fu
Ridley didn't know what the other party was thinking, so he continued: "I just want to see how the actual effect compares to the effect in the movie. I have seen Hong Kong kung fu movies, and I agree with Miss Mason on this point. In my opinion, the fighting effects in Hong Kong kung fu movies are not suitable for this movie.”
The young man named "Tiger" spoke to Master Yuan again, and the other party thought for a while before nodding his head.
"Master Yuan said that he can play a few tricks with me and show you a few moves." The young man started to take off his jacket, Ridley nodded and stepped aside.
The tricks of the old and the young are very boring. It is not the kind of punching and kicking in the ring, nor the punching to the flesh in the kung fu movie. Their movements are indeed smooth, but if there is no lack of speed and cleanliness, it is very good. Ugly. But Ridley watched it with relish. As a director, he was already used to how to process this kind of picture in his head into the effect of the movie.
"I can imagine how visual effects these actions will be when they are filmed." The old man clapped his hands approvingly after the two of them finished their moves, and then pointed to the other main players in the room who followed the martial artist led by Master Yuan. The actors—Keanu, Lawrence, Hugo, and Kate—asked, “Can they try something like this?”
This time, the "Tiger" youth did not ask Master Yuan, but shook his head bluntly: "I'm sorry, Scott, to be as smooth as we just did, it takes at least three months of training, but given the strength of computer technology, one month Barely."
The door to the training hall was opened, and a beautiful girl with blond hair rushed in panting.
"Sorry, it's a little late, I hope you guys can finish the exchange today." After the girl with her hands on her knees took a breath, she straightened her body and glanced at the few people in front of her, and her eyes lit up when she landed on Master Yuan.
"Yuan Ba Ye, I've been looking up for a long time!" The girl smiled and clasped her fists and arched her hands, and said in eloquent Chinese, but compared with her outfit and appearance, it was really... out of character!
