Although Angela is the only one who is very demanding, she finally reached an agreement with Peter after Sparrow's negotiation. For example, when the filming of a certain place is about to end, she must finish her part before leaving, etc. In short, the middle The flexibility is still very large, so Angela became the first official cast member of the "Lord of the Rings" crew.
Yes, the first one, although Liv had already tried the mirror before, and Angela dressed her up exactly as she remembered on Halloween, she couldn't compare to Angela after all, so even for the first time. The audition has passed, but it is still only an alternative, of course, because Angela is basically the first choice.
Since the contract is signed, it is necessary to cooperate with the work of the crew. Of course, the crew is still in preparation, and it will only be launched in 8 months at the earliest, so there is no need for confidentiality or publicity. It is just Legola in the novel. Si is a good archer who can pierce Yang at a hundred paces, so Peter asked Angela to at least be able to master bow and arrow proficiently before starting the machine.
"Very good, there is one more thing that must be done." Angela said helplessly after learning of Peter's request.
"It's not surprising, you are a smart person, and a smart person has to do a lot more than ordinary people." After listening to her self-deprecation, Annie said half-jokingly and half comfortingly, Angela could only snort something happened.
Although Radcliffe College won't start until mid-February, the extra month-long vacation doesn't mean much to Angela, she still has to be busy with her career, for example, Andrew finally let go of the script Handing it over to the Pixar film department, Angela needs to consider whether to use this opportunity to drag Warner into the water or to drag Fox or Universal into the water. She is not worried that she will not be able to convince these film companies, after all, her achievements are there, creation. And fancy scripts have no precedent for failure at the box office, and these big companies won't give up the chance to try unless they fail after a partnership.
As for Disney, although CEO Michael Eisner has become a bit greedy due to his long reign, which has led to a lot of friction with the Pixar animation department, in general the cooperation between the two parties is still smooth. . Therefore, in addition to "50 First Loves" that will be released on the plotter, Angela still considers looking for "Pirates of the Caribbean", which is currently only an outline, to cooperate with them in investment, otherwise she will have to go to "Pirates of the Caribbean" Sign up and order Disneyland's "Pirates of the Caribbean" to either change its name or pay a fee.
Of course, this is the worst plan. Although Eisner has become greedy, he is not blind, so it is enough to have the "Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy hanging on Disney, and other resources can be better given to other established film companies.
In addition to this consideration, she also decided on several important roles in "The Truman World" by the way. Needless to say, Jim Carrey is definitely the male lead, the director is also sure to be Peter Weir, and the producer is the villain. It was "General Hammer" Ed Harris, who basically let go as long as they agreed to the movie.
It would be fine if it was just these, but the advertisements that really took up her time were those advertisements. Although the previous jewelry advertisements told my mother that they would only be endorsed for one year, they did not renew their contracts after 1998, but George The old man signed her for two years in a row. This year is not enough for this year and he wants to sign another year. Angela doesn't have much to say. After all, the jeans from childhood to adulthood were designed by old George himself and never leaked, so not only did he generously renew the contract At the same time, in addition to the print advertisements, a series of TV commercials were also specially filmed.
Also signed for the third year is Chanel's girly perfume advertisement, although Angela is full of slander: Isn't it all changed every year? Why do you have to speak for me? But after all, this perfume is a brand launched by Chanel in her name, and it occupies a large share in the market of girls' perfumes, so Angela who could not stand the other party's lobbying finally agreed.
As for the others who came to hear the news, they were turned away again. Anyway, she did not lack the money. Even if there were many famous manufacturers among these people, the only thing that made Angela hesitate was Mattel's invitation. .
Since she turned 18 last year, Mattel has come to the door, hoping to be authorized to make a Barbie doll in Angela's appearance. Angela at that time naturally refused without thinking. Although she has a cabinet of Barbie dolls, but They are all given by elders on birthdays or various festivals. Most of them are put into refuse children as decorations. Only when parents and friends bring girls of the same age to visit their homes, they will take them out, and then they will pretend to be. Play with each other.
Besides, as long as she thought about the doll that looked exactly like her being touched by many people—although most of them were girls—it might even be bitten by dogs, thrown around, and thrown into the microwave oven, Angela felt quite uncomfortable, although she knew that As long as she is still a public figure, she will be prostituted by others, so Mattel rejected her several invitations before and after.
But the difference this time is that the other party not only came to the manager of the planning department but also brought a letter, a letter written by the retired old lady Ruth Handler, the founder of Barbie dolls.
The old lady didn't say too much in the letter. After quietly holding a handful of Angela, she sincerely hoped that she could "become a learning object for girls in the United States and the world, and lead them to become a new era. "New Woman", and the words used neither humble nor arrogant just right, so Angela couldn't help but feel good.
So after thinking for a long time, Angela finally agreed relentlessly, but it was just a few models. Any way to further occupy the hearts of these teenagers should not be missed.
Then, of course, the next step is to shoot a print advertisement. Although Mattel did not do it too gorgeously due to Angela's request, from the sister next door to the professional woman to the palace princess, she still changed a lot of clothes. Tai also collected data on her body and planned to completely scale down the production, which was a painstaking effort.
These things take up most of Angela's time in Los Angeles, so whether she's with Jessica or Kate or coaching Lindsay to practice an instrument and play with the three little guys, she has to plan and squeeze in time, even close to Nicole, who is close at hand, can only chat a few words on the phone, so you can imagine how upset Angela is about the bow and arrow practice that has to be added to the schedule.
Fortunately, "The Lord of the Rings" will take a long time to leave the machine, so after deliberation, I decided to invite a bow and arrow teacher to follow me after school starts, and use the spare time of directing during weekends and summer vacations to study and practice.
"Why are there always so many things to do?" Angela, who was typing in the warm sunlight, was a little frowning. Even though she was rarely alone for an afternoon, she still worked hard to write the script.
Of course, this emotion comes and goes quickly. It seems that Angela is always surrounded by many things, but she actually enjoys it. As long as it does not affect the quality of life, she will not change anything, because these things are It's what she thinks she must do, such as the "Princess Diaries" script she is currently writing. After explaining it to Sparrow, Angela slapped Annie several times. After getting the same answer as last time. She can only sigh softly, since Annie has stated that she will never get involved in the entertainment industry, then she will never allow the movie "Princess Diaries" to appear in Hollywood! This movie can only belong to Annie!
"I knew you were here, the sunniest place in the garden." A voice came at this moment.
"The sunniest place in the garden is not only here, dear mother." Angela suddenly stopped typing, turning her head and showing a big smile to the mother who came over, "Is there something wrong?"
"Can't I come to see my daughter if I have nothing to do? Or my daughter doesn't like her mother to come to see her when she grows up?" The mother who sat down opposite said teasingly.
"Mom!" Angela rolled her eyes directly, making her mother who was looking in her eyes couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, I'm just here to see you. You're rarely at home these days." Mother patted her head lovingly.
"It'll be fine in a few days, then I'll be pestering you every day, asking you to carry me around and help me bathe and feed me." Angela, who was sticking out her tongue and looking naughty, didn't have the slightest sense of maturity. Take off an immature child.
"Okay, Chrissy, don't be childish." The mother smiled and shook her head. She tapped her fingers on the round table before she said, "Why don't you buy a yacht and go out to sea with the whole family?"
"Why should I buy a yacht?" Angela shrugged, "Can't I use the Mary to go out to sea?"
"Maintaining." Mother said lightly.
"Where's the Jedi?"
"It's also being maintained."
"Then..." Angela was about to call out the name of the next yacht when she suddenly understood.
In the past, unless my father was too busy to get away, he would take his family for a few days in Los Angeles or Miami during the summer vacation. But since 91 started making movies by herself, she seldom goes out to sea with her parents. Apart from filming movies in the summer vacation, she has added a lot of work for her own sake. Last year, after her younger siblings came back from Miami, they often complained that their elder sister was busy with work and refused to accept it. Go play with them.
"Mom, I... I'm not... " Angela pursed her lips and looked at her mother sadly.
"Fool, I don't mean to blame you," the mother smiled slightly, "you are an adult and you are so good, it's normal to focus on your own business, I just want to remind you not to ignore other people because of it. Stuff, you know we all love you."
"I understand, Mom." Angela pursed her lips and suddenly opened her arms to hug her mother tightly. Somewhere in her memory suddenly churned, and bits and pieces of the past flashed through her mind quickly.
"I said just now, there will be time in the past few days, and I will accompany you well then." Angela held her mother's hand gently, but in the next second, she waved her fists fiercely and shouted: " I want you to carry me wherever you go, help me bathe and feed me! I want to tell those two little devils that mother's arms belong to me! No one wants to take it away!"
