Pat, turned off the bedside light, and Angela, who had put on her pajamas, shrunk into the quilt. Although Yoyo yawned, she didn't feel sleepy at all. The words Jennifer asked her repeatedly rang in her head: Where are you? What are you afraid of
"I'm not afraid of anything, I'm just not confident." The little girl muttered, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes.
Speaking of it, it is really a otaku in success and an otaku in failure. The otaku life in her previous life gave her a unique advantage in certain information, but it also made her lack enterprising spirit and self-confidence - a guy who spends all day at home and on the Internet , it is really difficult for him to face reality boldly. The reason why she secretly writes novels and scripts is the same. She doesn't know what the outcome will be. Even though she knows that these are first-class works in her previous life, she still feels uneasy in her heart. After all, she plagiarized!
Oh, of course, some people might say that Angela had a guilty conscience when she was talking with producer Nancy and Disney editorial team leader George in the afternoon? But that's because this guy has been forced to retreat. You must know that "Born to Be" was a film written, directed and made by Nancy Meyers in 1998. The script was sent to the original author, and also Only a "genius" like her can think of it. If it hadn't been pushed to the edge, it would have rebounded strongly. God knows what the performance in the afternoon would have been like.
Angela turned over and stared straight at the rows of alarm clocks by the bedside. It was already 10 o'clock. She should have fallen asleep at this time, but she still didn't want to sleep, so she finally turned over and got up to fight. Turn on the light, and then drag a small cardboard box out from under the bed. After opening it, you can see a lot of paper in a mess, some with several pages, some with only one or two.
The little guy pursed his mouth and took out these things and slowly opened them up. If someone who was also reborn saw these things, their jaws would fall to the ground in shock. "Titanic" and so on, the little girl is simply sweeping all the future blockbusters in Hollywood! However, these things are not completely written, and some even have only a beginning, and they are not in the form of scripts, but mostly between novels and content introductions.
"Okay, "Born to Be" has been sold, so what should I do with these?" Angela sat on the ground with her head on her knees, and muttered to herself, staring at the works in the box. I wrote "Born A Couple" just to earn some pocket money, but these were written for fun when I was bored, so if I need money in the future, should I just pick one out of them? So what should I do if I meet the original author
I'm really crazy, what do I get up and think about if I don't sleep? Angela knocked on her head, thinking a little depressedly, she felt that she seemed to be less and less arrogant after becoming a girl, even if it was plagiarism, it wasn't that she didn't have her own things, just like this "Born A Couple", the original version Because Nancy Meyers doesn't know much about the UK, most of her dramas in the UK are shot at a glance, but Angela is different. Her mother is British and has lived in the UK since she was a child. In terms of these details And she has more say in the living habits of the British, which is also well reflected in the script, and she also designed different little actions for the twins in the play to distinguish their identities, so it is said that she plagiarized. It's not necessarily correct. Besides, even if you copy a screenwriter's play, the screenwriter may not starve to death because of it, and maybe he will write better because of it, so he is completely unfounded.
"Sleep! Sleep! What are you thinking about? There must be a way for the car to the front of the mountain. Let's talk about it when the time comes!" As soon as the bachelor's personality broke out, Angela didn't bother to turn off the lights and go to bed, so she didn't care about anything.
George took a deep breath, adjusted his tie again to ensure his appearance was neat, and then walked out of the elevator. A white man in his thirties in front of the reception desk not far away had already waved to him.
"Hi, Matthew."
"Hi, George."
The two shook hands, and Matthew made a please gesture and pointed to the door at the end of the corridor: "Come on, we are waiting for you."
"Let's be honest, Matthew, we've worked together for a long time, what do you think?" George took a deep breath again and asked.
"Don't be nervous, George," Matthew smiled lightly, but then restrained himself, "It's pretty good, I've read your submission, and the gentlemen of the board think so too, but... you better do it well. Prepare yourself." Before George could understand, he reached out and opened the door of the conference room for him.
"Dear Mr. Chairman and directors, I am George Wells, head of the editing and review team of the film subsidiary. I believe that you have read my opinion. I personally think it is totally worth the investment of the company." George at the bottom began to talk eloquently after saying hello. He was very confident, because the middle-aged man in his fifties sitting at the top of the long table was Michael Ace, the current CEO and chairman of Disney Film and Television Entertainment. Na, since he came from Burbank in person, it shows that he really attaches great importance to his opinion.
As an old Disney employee, George is very clear that although Disney has occupied animation for a long time, it can be said to be synonymous with American animation. The premiere of "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 seems to usher in Disney's second spring, but animation still There are many areas for improvement. The current CEO Eisner is a bold and bold boss, so he fully believes that Eisner can see the potential value of "The Lion King" and "Born Together", so the same He should also be able to see the value of Angela.
The meeting soon came to an end. After George explained, several directors asked some more questions. He answered them one by one. From the satisfied expressions of the directors, it could be seen that the effect was good, but as the big boss Michael Ace Na but did not speak from beginning to end, just crossed his hands in front of him and quietly listened to the discussions of the others, which made George a little uneasy.
Finally, after the other directors finished discussing and the meeting room gradually became quiet, Eisner spoke slowly: "Mr. Wells, your suggestion is very good, whether it is this animation or this movie, for It means a lot to Disney, and I'm all for investing, but here's the problem..."
He stared at George: "How are you going to convince Mr. Jared Harris Mason, the owner of Pedro, to let his baby girl make a movie?"
"Listen, George, I know you're all about getting results, but sometimes your haste doesn't work," Michael Eisner, leaning against the table in the empty conference room, patted George on the shoulder, At this time, there is no boss's momentum at all, but more like an elder, "I never told you to take it slow, this time it is still the same, the opinion letter has been done very well, I appreciate it, as for that girl... or Come on, I've seen it a few times before - a pretty charming kid indeed at Mr. Mason's private parties, but don't try too hard on hopeless things"
"Well, Mr. Eisner, in fact, after hearing about her identity, I have no idea of hitting her." George also leaned against the table and replied with a wry smile.
"That's it, I'm going back," Eisner pointed to the door. "They can't be made to wait too long."
George nodded, then remembered something, and looked at him hesitantly: "My uncle's side..."
"Okay, okay, Frank won't know about this." Eisner laughed and walked out.
George took him to the elevator all the way, and then returned to his office with a little loss. This is a pity. If he can win a dazzling child star, the influence of the film subsidiary will be at least doubled, but He never thought that Angela would be the daughter of the boss of the largest conglomerate in the west! God really loves to joke.
"Don't be discouraged, whether animation or film, as long as you are successful, you will not be far from the position of general manager." Matthew walked in at this time, said comfortingly, and then said half-jokingly: "You know me In the head office, you are only a deputy manager, and you are promoted faster than me."
"Come on, Matthew, you know I'm not mad at this." George shrugged.
"Yes, I know," said Matthew with a smile, "you're so whimsical when it comes to the daughter of the president of Pedro, let me think about how you use words, oh, contemporary fees. Wen Li!"
"Hey, I'm serious," George glared at him. "Besides, why am I thinking about the company, so you console me like that?"
"Okay, I'll treat you tonight at Morton's," Matthew shrugged. "It's time for me to go, remember to be on time, and don't be late!"
After watching Matthew leave, George shook his head, picked up the phone on the desk and called: "Hello, Miss Brant, can you pick up Nancy for me?"
"How is it, George, are you ready?" Nancy's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"yes, from now on you can already contact the actors or something, but..." george sighed and explained the problem in detail. Her answer surprised him.
"I want to try, George." Nancy's voice was firm.
"You mean you still want to talk to Mason's house?" George asked in surprise.
"Yes, you should understand that if you do something, you may have a chance, but if you don't do it, you have no chance!"
George was stunned. He wanted to persuade him a few more words, but he didn't say anything after all. He just said, "Then, good luck to you."
The moment he put down the phone, he thought, maybe it will work
