"Your water and bubble tablets, Miss Angela." The stewardess came over with a stainless steel plate on which was a glass of slightly steaming water and a small white tablet.
"Thank you." Angela, who was staring at the laptop screen in a daze, came back to her senses, smiled at the flight attendant, took the cup, and threw the foam tablet into the water, watching the blisters continue to start stunned.
After an unknown time, Sparrow's voice rang: "How is it? If there is no problem, I will go to rest."
He followed him and sat down beside Angela, and when she saw her trance, she suddenly showed a surprised expression: "What's the matter?"
"It's nothing," Angela, who came back to her senses again, forced a smile and reached out to rub her temples. "My head hurts a bit, probably because I drank a lot last night, and I played crazy, so..."
She raised her hands and walked around as if she didn't intend to talk more, so she changed the subject and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Um..." Sparrow smiled wryly, pointing to her computer screen.
"Ah? Oh, sorry..." Angela reacted immediately and took a quick glance at the notebook: "Pirates of the Caribbean has started filming? Both Bruckheimer and Verbinski are full of praise for Kayla? I Let's just say, she's definitely suitable... "Transformers" is not considered for production for the time being, "The Lord of the Rings" will be released at the end of next year at the latest, and I bet the CG effect will be very good. This way McKinley and the others are budgeting. I won't shrink back."
While directing the icon file to pull down with her finger, she continued: "I don't think about "Iron Man" for the time being, I know that "X-Men" has a very good box office, and last year's "Spider-Man" was also quite popular. Big movie companies want to take the opportunity to put superheroes on the screen and make a profit. But the problem is that not all superheroes can make money. Adaptations such as Hulk and Punisher have been put on the agenda by major film companies, and if there are no particularly attractive highlights, they will become very embarrassing.
Instead of taking the time to bring Iron Man to the screen, it's better to make the X-Men trilogy more well-made, and it's better to make X-Men into a brand. You know, there are many X-Men, and each of the several protagonists can take them out to make a movie alone. "
Hearing this, Sparrow couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "No wonder you always advocate for the adaptation rights of "X-Men".
"That said, it also depends on the production level. If the audience doesn't buy it, no one will watch it if they gather them together to make a new "X-Men"." Angela waved her hand indifferently and changed the topic again. Quoting back: "However, I suggest that the production date of "Iron Man" should be delayed until six or seven years later."
Sparrow didn't speak, but raised his legs and changed to a more comfortable position, waiting for the girl's next words.
"As I said before, because of the advancement of CG technology, it is possible to put a large number of superheroes on the screen, and everyone wants to take this opportunity to take a share. If you think about it carefully, you will find that there are many popular superheroes. The similarities, most prominently, are duality - they have two different identities at the same time, and when they're small people around them don't know they're superheroes. It's like the script I wrote for Lindsay proposes The concept is the same, usually an ordinary person, but when needed, he will become a different existence." Speaking of which, Angela smiled and spread out her hand, "Everyone likes this kind of movie that can be substituted into themselves, so they have The average high school student Peter Parker's Spider-Man is more popular than the crowded X-Men."
Having said this, she paused before speaking again: "It's just that when more and more superheroes like this appear, it is certain that the audience will have aesthetic fatigue. At this time, when everyone is tired of having no bad guys When there is an ordinary and well-behaved superhero, there is an unruly, rebellious, high-profile alternative who declares that I am a superhero, and I believe it will definitely catch the eye for the first time, then... "
Angela shrugged, and the words that followed were self-evident. After thinking for a moment, Sparrow nodded noncommittally and shook his head. Angela knew what he meant, and although she made sense, it was still a bit general, and the reason why "Iron Man" was able to break through the siege of many superheroes and give the comics a shot in the arm was just one of the reasons. one. You know, Tony Tux is wild and uninhibited at the same time as an otaku with strong hands-on ability!
Well, let's not talk about this, if she really wants to discuss it, she is enough to write a paper. Angela cleared her throat: "Tell these words to McKinley and Ed as they are. If you have any questions, I can discuss them face to face. As for the other..."
She glanced at the computer screen: ""Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" basically just needs to let me know the situation from time to time. Anyway, I will visit Joe every year when I go back to London, and there will be a chance to torture her...
She bit the word "torture" very hard, and with that hey laughter, she heard Sparrow roll his eyes and coughed lightly. The awakened Angela blushed, and her embarrassed look disappeared for a moment, and then it became nonchalant: "Okay, let's see what else... Got the film adaptation rights of "Bourne's Identity" ?"
The news made her a little surprised, and then she became depressed again. Although she had sworn that she would write the movie script when Sparrow was trying to figure out a way in the first half of the year, she still had a lot to do. . If nothing else, the script for "The Devil" is only half-written, and the plan is to complete it by the end of the year.
"Well, I'll make an outline first, and then ask other screenwriters to add details. If there are any questions, I'll bring them up again, and I'll revise them after discussion." Angela said after thinking about it. This can greatly save her energy. If it goes well, many scripts can be operated in this way in the future. The only thing that has changed is that there will be someone else in the screenwriter column besides Angela's name, which is totally acceptable, isn't it
"No problem," Sparrow wrote down one by one, "and finally?"
"What else?" Angela switched documents and followed up with a clear "oh", "Let me see... have you got 20% of the equity? Very good, but... "
She raised her head and saw Sparrow raised his hand into a fist, his face full of seriousness: "My request has already been said at the meeting at the beginning of the year, no matter what, I must get it, and I will do everything possible to get it. If it doesn't work, complain to me again."
"I'll pass it on." Sparrow nodded and was about to get up, "Then..."
"Wait, Jack." Angela stopped him suddenly, rubbing her chin for a few seconds before speaking again: "If you have time, I want you to help me find a manor in Beverly Hills."
"Manor?" Sparrow raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Are you planning to move out?"
"Forget it, you can't live with your parents for the rest of your life. Many people choose to move out after the age of eighteen or even sixteen to show their independence. I should be independent now, right?" Angela shrugged, telling the truth, She really doesn't want to move out if she can. Even if there are more than ten people in the family manor house, she still feels very empty, and if she is alone, it will be even more empty.
Of course, it's impossible to be alone, Annie will be by her side, maybe Lily will too. In addition to maids, bodyguards, etc., there will also be a dozen people at home, but this is completely different from being with parents.
"About 20 million to 30 million is fine. I don't want to keep an aquarium at home like my father, although the dolphins are very cute. There is no special requirement, just not too far from the parents or too close." Angie La thought about it and said, "Let's talk about the other things after reading the specific information."
Even though she didn't want to move out, she had to move out for convenience. She really should be independent, the girl said to herself in her heart.
"Okay, I'll collect relevant information as soon as possible for you to choose." Sparrow nodded, "Then I'm going to rest. If you still have a headache, you might as well rest for a while, the journey is still long."
After the agent left, Angela suddenly became depressed again. Damn it, because of the previous conversation, he finally left things behind for a while, and his headache brought back his memory again.
Angela held her face with one hand and looked at the unpredictable clouds outside the plane window under the light of the setting sun or the rising sun, and sighed deeply in her heart. Damn Ilya, damn Vigo, I told them that I can't drink whisky, but these guys who are afraid of chaos in the world actually...
Well, my fault, I underestimated their curiosity, I should say dislikes drinking whiskey instead of what would be scary to drink it. Angela thought in her heart. She couldn't help laughing when she thought of the men who were watching her dodging when she woke up this morning, especially the weird-looking Peter.
There should be no such thing as killing the Quartet, and I can vaguely recall the person who was helping Liv to leave the party at that time... Thinking of this, Angela's brows frowned, followed by a complicated look.
Although she drank a lot at that time, Ilya saw the maliciousness in her eyes when she was instigated by Vigo and the others and handed the wine glass, and she knew the color and smell of whiskey, but she still chose drink it. So, she was actually trying to evade Liv's request in this way.
It's just that instead of being able to escape, he may let something further slide in an unpredictable direction. Angela's mind couldn't help but the image of Liv's anger and joy that she saw when she woke up this morning.
"You're so disgusting, Angie! I can't believe that you are such a person!" Liv said to her angrily, "I just wanted to have a good chat with you, but you actually... you I am so disappointed!"
She curled up in the quilt and hugged the white quilt, exposing most of her body to the outside, which was not beautiful in the morning light. Especially when she looked angry but the corners of her mouth were curled up, she was really like an elf in the forest.
However, such a scene would only make Angela more sad, so she kept silent and listened to Liv scolding herself. Words such as "I can't wait as soon as I enter the door", "I don't think about my feelings at all", "I have an orgasm and don't let go" appeared again and again, if only these were enough, it would make Angela feel shocked. Trembling is...
"You should be at the mercy of me, but why am I being controlled by you? What do you call me my little elf, it's so disgusting!" Although Liv's nose is wrinkled, her blue eyes are full of smiles, obviously right This title is very emotional, "Be honest, is it because you are drunk?"
"I think... it should be like this," Angela pondered the words, "remember what I said? I feel like a different person when I drink whiskey, and I can't remember what I did or said."
"Can't remember at all?" Liv's face suddenly changed, "You're joking, Angie!"
"I didn't, that's true..." Angela, who was in the middle of her defense, suddenly stopped, looked at Liv in surprise, and asked carefully after a while, "I... Did I say something?"
And Liv's eyes changed for a long time before she sighed faintly, rolled over and crawled on the bed: "It's nothing."
After that, until she took Angela on the plane, Liv didn't mention what she said last night, but there was still sadness and stubbornness in that faint smile.
God, can you tell me what the hell I said! Angela, who took her eyes back from the window, scratched her head vigorously. She suddenly regretted drinking whisky. If she stayed sober, even if she was at a loss, at least it wouldn't happen, right? ! Angela, who was a little unstable on this, couldn't help but feel even more irritable.
Why? Why do I get drunk when I drink whiskey, and I can't remember what I did or said? She asked herself in her heart. Is it like in "Dr. Incarnate", that he has another personality because of drinking whisky
Angela couldn't help rolling her eyes, her associations were really rich.
Forget it, go to rest, get a good night's sleep, and you will definitely feel much better when you wake up. The girl sighed inwardly. Leave it behind, leave it behind, Liv wouldn't say that she couldn't remember it, what else could it be like
Angela stood up and walked to the bedroom on the plane, which was about to fly to Boston after a short stop in Los Angeles. The span of the time zone is a little big, and she got off the plane and has a later stage and is about to be busy with her studies, so she can only adjust the time difference by taking several light sleeps. Although the effect is not very obvious, at least it is better than nothing.
