Hell, even Mavis found out, even though she knew she was very observant. But... Although several days have passed, Angela is still a little worried. Because, even Mavis, who hasn't been in the crew very much, can see that Kate and the others are almost... Hey, it's really a headache.
Angela cast her eyes out of the car window and thought with some annoyance. In retrospect, although their attitude towards her hadn't changed much during this time, she still noticed a change. What exactly changed Angela couldn't tell, her gut told her so, especially after the Independence Day party.
Just as her thoughts were wandering endlessly, the car finally stopped, and then Buckt got off the co-pilot and opened the door for her: "We're here, Miss Angela."
"Thank you, Bucket." Angela nodded and tidied up her clothes before stepping out of the car. She simply wore jeans and a casual t-shirt, and the big waves fell softly on her shoulders. Since she didn't deliberately dress up There is also no deliberate disguise, which makes her look natural beauty.
The screams all around inevitably sounded. Although Angela told the school not to publicize it too much, since she agreed to give a speech at the school, how could she not be known by the students
Webb High School sent an invitation about half a month ago, hoping that Angela would come to the school to give a speech. Angela thought about agreeing again and again. Although she asked for leave every three days in high school and college, she still had feelings for Weber High School. Especially the film company, "Blair Witch" is produced here.
But she didn't want to give a speech in the auditorium. First, she had nothing to talk about, and secondly, she didn't like standing in the auditorium to give a speech, so after thinking about it, she hoped that the building would change the speech to a simple exchange at the film club.
Webb High School immediately agreed. They had invited three or four times before, but they had always been declined by Angela. It's not that Angela is pretending to be reserved. She is always busy every time Weber High School sends out an invitation. Fortunately, the school also understands these things and has not complained. Naturally, Angela agreed when they invited them again. Similarly, the school would try to agree to whatever she asked.
The screams came one after another, and the originally quiet campus was like drops of water falling into a boiling oil pan, and the crackling sounded. Although the students knew that Angela was going to come to the school to communicate with the film club, but they didn't know the specific time, they were naturally very surprised and excited when Angela suddenly appeared.
Americans, especially young Americans, worship Angela is definitely not just talk, the title of national idol is not something you can wear casually. Don't look at so many street shots on the Internet, the chance of seeing Angela on the street or elsewhere is too low, and Angela herself also admits in her blog that she is very good at disguising, sometimes It also won't be recognized for brushing past people, so they have such an enthusiastic response.
What's more, this is Weber High School, Angela's alma mater. Many people are proud of being an alumnus of Miss Angel. After the news of her going to the film club for a simple exchange spread, the application form was suddenly filled with the film club's alumni. All cabinets. Even knowing that this is only a temporary phenomenon, other student groups and clubs can't help but have a little taste. Usually it is the club that students most want to go to, and that's all, it's still like this now, it's too... Taste is taste, they can't do anything about it, who let Angela stay in the film club? He also took the members to produce a movie with the highest cost and the highest box office in history.
As the students forwarded text messages to each other, after walking about 100 feet, Angela was surrounded by students who heard the news. Those who took pictures took pictures, those who wanted to sign autographs, and many people waved their arms and shouted in thought. To shake hands with her. Although she had expected this situation, Angela couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.
Fortunately, under the escort of the bodyguards and the school's security guards, Angela came to Building B smoothly after taking the time to sign a few names. But just as she was about to enter, someone had a little friction with her bodyguard. A young man who seemed to be seventeen or eighteen wanted to rush to her side, but was grabbed by Buckt. Too many words may have been laid down on the ground.
"Hey, what's going on?" Seeing that a conflict was about to break out from the young man glaring at Bucket, Angela hurriedly interjected, "Let him go, Bucket, nothing will happen."
Bucket let go of the young man according to his words, but still looked at her with a cautious look. Angela shook her head slightly and showed a gentle smile to the young man: "Is there anything wrong?"
The young man who was still gloomy and resentful just now blushed immediately, his eyes were dodging and he didn't dare to look at Angela, and after a long while, he stammered and said, "Okay... can you sign me... can you sign it? "
Angela smiled and shook her head, and took the initiative to take the pen and notebook he was holding: "Of course there's no problem, in fact, you shouldn't force it like this, my bodyguards are sometimes overly vigilant."
The young man moved his lips and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he just squeezed out a forced smile and lowered his head. At this moment, an impatient voice came from nearby: "Samson, you idiot, come back to me if you can't!"
Angela looked at the sound in amazement. There were about three or four tall and strong young people standing under the steps of the building, wearing American football uniforms and pointing at her, all looking at Angie with contempt. The young man in front of Ra turned into adoration after Angela's gaze was projected.
Looking at their typical Western silhouettes with high noses and deep eyes, and at Samson's obviously mixed-race face in front of her, Angela roughly guessed something, but she couldn't do anything, so she sighed again, opened the book and asked: "So, what do I need to write specifically for you?"
"Huh?" The young man named Samson was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he understood and said with a sigh of relief: "Please... Please write: I wish the Lions can be dazzling in the next game. That's it, please. "
"Okay, then..." Angela quickly wrote what he said in a notebook, and by the way praised them for being better than the previous Webb High School Lions.
Of course, she actually didn't think much of these guys in her heart. The Webb High School Lions did have their glory days, but that was a long time ago. During Angela's school days, the Lions were devastated by other teams in the high school league. , if American football is not a national sport, maybe the Lions would have ceased to exist. Although it has been a long time since I left school. But from the students' dissatisfaction with these American football team members, you can guess the current situation. I really don't know where these guys' arrogance and arrogance come from.
Are all the guys who play American football really simple-minded guys? Angela, who was writing and drawing, slandered like this, she couldn't help but glance at Samson in front of her, and then raised her eyebrows a little uneasy. Samson in front of him was secretly looking at the laughing football team members not far away, but his expression was gloomy, and there seemed to be something violent rolling in his eyes, as if he wanted to break the shackles and rush out.
Although this feeling was short-lived, Angela was sure that she didn't feel wrong, obviously... a lot of bad things happened. However, this kind of thing is too common. Tens of thousands of high schools in the United States are staged every day. As long as there is no major trouble, the school can only turn a blind eye, and public students are worse than private students.
Angela sighed secretly and handed the written book back to Samson: "Okay."
"Thank you." Samson still nodded with a forced smile, he turned around and was about to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Angela: "Samson, your name is Samson, right? "
The young man came back a little surprised and stunned. Angela smiled gently, and after considering the words, she said, "It will get better, bad things... won't exist forever, I believe."
Samson stared blankly at Angela, ignoring those who called out again because of their impatience. After a long time, he nodded slightly, and said in a low voice gratefully, "Thank you."
Angela nodded as well, and then entered the building surrounded by bodyguards. The moment she entered, she deliberately turned her head and looked outside. Samson, who returned to the middle of the football players, was being held by a guy with his arms around his neck. , while others cheered loudly as they grabbed their signed books.
idiot. She couldn't help but curse in her heart, but she couldn't help it. After coming to the third floor and getting closer to the film studio, she suddenly said to Bucket, "You shouldn't have treated him that way just now."
Buckt raised his eyebrows and said after a few seconds, "Intuition tells me he's dangerous."
"But some things can't be done intuitively." Angela waved her hand irritably.
Buckett stopped talking, and he's been talking very little. Angela didn't continue talking, and only said after arriving at the door of the film club: "Well, you don't have to stay here, go outside the school."
"But..." Buckett wanted to raise an objection, but Angela rejected it before he could say it all: "Don't worry, nothing will happen, this is in school and not Iraq. Besides, you didn't accompany you either. I walk the red carpet, accompany me to the stage to accept the award, and that's it."
In the end, at her insistence, the bodyguards left the building, and Angela packed up and entered the film club. Although the film studio is no longer in the original building, the layout of the room has not changed much. The podium, tables and chairs, photographic equipment racks, etc., are placed in positions that can evoke Angela's memory.
"This is a decision made by President Bella after a vote before graduation. I think it is probably because that was the most glorious period of the film club." The current chairman named Owen Wood explained this way.
"Yeah, in the most glorious period, I can still remember how Bella performed in the woods in that small town." Angela smiled and looked at a shelf displaying the records of the film club. This is her graduation. Not when I left.
There are many souvenirs on it. Among them is the camera that was specially bought for the filming of "Blair Witch". Those guys thought that the film would definitely lose money after filming. Although the investment was negligible, it was all Angela's capital after all. , so after the discussion, you can return the goods while the camera is still in use, so I returned it as a check and returned it to Angela, which is really dumbfounding. Later, "Blair Witch" sold out, and Angela gave each person a red envelope, which was at least about 200,000 US dollars, so Jim deliberately bought the camera back, and finally became a souvenir on the shelf.
If Jim came today, how would he feel when he saw this. Angela thought while smacking her lips.
In addition, there are many other souvenirs on the shelf. Although Angela didn't take the development of the film club to heart when she was in school, because of her celebrity effect and the ability of several chairmen, the film club still produced a lot of outstanding films after she graduated. short film. For example, a short film related to homosexuality won a small award at the San Francisco Gay Film Festival in 2001. Of course, at that time, Angela patronized me and Jessica, and didn't notice it at all.
"You have done an excellent job, not much worse than Louis and the others." Angela said in praise, and looked at the current chairman with curious eyes again. Owen Wood is a tall man. With his strong body, he should play American football or basketball. How could he come to the film club? Of course, Angela won't ask this kind of question casually, it's very rude behavior, he will join the film club and be the chairman has already explained how much he likes the movie.
Soon, the members came together, and in addition, there were many temporary applications to join. Angela didn't care. She had already approved this practice when she communicated with the school. After all, no matter how big the film club was, there were only about a dozen people.
The whole conversation was very relaxed and happy. Many of the people who applied temporarily were from literature, photography, etc. societies, or movie lovers, so there were a lot of topics to talk about.
"Who can tell me, from the perspective of ordinary audiences, what a good movie needs most?" Angela asked suddenly when discussing the conditions of a good movie.
"A good director?" Someone asked tentatively.
"Actors who can give full play to their acting skills." Some people answered in this way.
"The meaning of the movie." There was another voice that replied.
But Angela shrugged noncommittally until a somewhat rough voice rang out: "A good story!"
"Yes, a good story!" Angela immediately clapped her hands heavily.
She looked at the young man who gave the answer. The other man had dark brown curly hair, and his facial features were clearly defined as if he had seen it somewhere. Angela understood after a moment's thought. The football team's uniform of the opponent had already said everything.
Although Angela didn't like people on the football team because of the previous scene, she wouldn't show the other person's face at this time. Besides, the other party still came to participate in the event.
"We all know that there are three main factors that affect the quality of a movie, namely: the script, the actors and the director. But for ordinary audiences, they will not be so clear, nor will they investigate too deeply. , The purpose of their entry into the cinema is very simple, that is, to relax and make themselves happy." Angela continued, "Of course, people's tastes are different, some people like nonsensical spoof movies, and some people are obsessed with cult. Movies, there are people who like romantic comedies and so on, but no matter how different their tastes, one thing is for sure, a movie that pleases them has to have a great story!”
The atmosphere in the film club is getting warmer and warmer. Some people agree or disagree with Angela's views. No one can convince each other. Seeing this, Angela discussed with President Owen Wood and the head of the school and divided them into four teams based on their different views, and then debated with each other.
"Because there may not be enough time, it's best to keep everyone's speech as short as possible. Anyway, we are not a formal debate competition." Angela, who is also the host and guest, explained after everyone was ready.
Then Owen, chairman of the film company, took over the topic: "So, the first thing to start is by... "
Bah!
Before he could finish speaking, there was a sudden sound outside the window, and everyone was stunned. Before he could react, the sound of bang bang rang continuously.
"It's gunshots!" Someone shouted out.
"What happened?! What happened!!"
"My God! Someone's shooting down there!"
With this shout, various voices also rang, and the room became a mess of porridge. Many people were confused and didn't know what to do. Even the teacher who represented the school was stunned in place with a pale face.
"Quiet! Everyone keep quiet!" Angela's voice suddenly sounded a little abruptly, and the noise finally became smaller, but after the continuous gunshots were heard outside again, it began to panic again.
"Quiet me!" Angela raised her voice abruptly, then grabbed something and slammed it on the ground with a loud noise.
The people in the startled room finally fell silent, and just cast their eyes on Angela. Although her heart was a little flustered and her back was covered in cold sweat, Angela still maintained her composure on the surface.
"Now, the person with the mobile phone immediately called the police, and the others quickly locked the door away from the window. We are very safe here!" Angela said loudly, "As long as we don't go outside and don't run around, we will not be hurt. Everyone just wait here until the police arrive, understand?!"
