Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 451 Is this bad luck?

"You need to rest, Miss Mason." The female doctor put away the tools. She just gave Angela a comprehensive examination. "You are a little tired and your temperature has reached 100°F. It is best to rest in bed for three to four days." , I'll prescribe some antibiotics for you."

"No, no, no, Dr. Meryl, I still have work the day after tomorrow," Angela, who sat up against the head of the bed, shook her head with the ice pack on her head and said in a weak voice, "so it's best for me to get up tomorrow .”

"Angie, since Dr. Meryl said you need to rest, then you should do what she said," Sparrow, who was standing by the bed, said gently, "And I also think you need to rest for a few more days. "

"No, Jack, I don't mind taking a break if the shooting progress exceeds expectations, but not now." Angela said weakly.Her throat was very dry due to inflammation of the tonsils. Although she had neither a runny nose nor a sneeze, the burning inside her body was very uncomfortable, and even the slightest touch of the skin felt pain.

Angela didn't know why she was so unlucky. You must know that she rarely caught a cold since she was a child.Especially in the past few years, she has been in good health, and she has paid special attention to adjustments after she has become busy with more work, but she never expected to lie on the bed like this.She felt very innocent, but she was only exposed to a little rain—no, not at all, at most she was exposed to humid air, but she was still taken advantage of by a small cold virus, which was really too bad.

"Okay, Angie, you have to understand that with your current body, you will be out of breath after taking a few steps." Sparrow tried to persuade her to give up this idea, but Angela was surprisingly stubborn and stubborn.

"Then carry me to the set!" She said so, which really made people wonder if her head was burned out.

"You will embarrass me very much, Angie." Sparrow had no choice but to change his method.

"I'm an adult, Jack, and I can take responsibility for my actions." Angela knew what he wanted to say, "Don't treat me like a child, even my parents here can't make me change."

After taking a breath, she pressed the ice pack on her head and groaned before looking at the female doctor who diagnosed herself: "Is there anything you can do, Dr. Meryl? My request is not high, as long as it can make me feel better the day after tomorrow." You can just walk to the set."

"If you really need it, you can choose intravenous infusion." The female doctor said, "It is much better to let the drug be directly injected into the blood vessel in large quantities than to absorb the drug through the stomach."

"Is there... any other treatment?" Angela's face suddenly changed slightly.

"Is there any problem?" The female doctor was a little puzzled.

"Well, I'm not used to having such a tiny needle inserted into my blood vessel, and it will stay there for a while." Angela explained, but her dim eyes seemed to be thinking about something evasively.

"In this case, I can only choose intramuscular injection." Dr. Meryl said helplessly, "But the effect of intramuscular injection is much smaller than that of intravenous infusion. Of course, it will definitely make you more relaxed than now."

Angela's white teeth rubbed against her lips for a while before she made up her mind as if she was on the execution ground and said, "Then give it an intramuscular injection!"

Soon, the nurse prepared the things, and then carefully rolled up the girl's sleeves and asked her to bend her arms.At this time, Angela looked a little flustered, her eyes turned around from time to time, and her breathing became a lot faster.Especially when the nurse squeezed the air out of the needle, she let out a groan from her throat with the spray of water from the needle.

"Don't worry, please relax, Ms. Mason, you'll be fine soon." The nurse massaged her arm while comforting her. After feeling that the other person was not so nervous, she skillfully pierced, injected, and withdrew the needle.

"Look, it's very easy to complete." The nurse said and was shocked in the next second: "May...Miss Mason?!"

"What happened?" Sparrow, who was talking with Dr. Meryl, turned his head, and then he was taken a few steps to Angela. The girl on the bed closed her eyes and frowned tightly, her face turned pale. , an unconscious syllable in the mouth.

"What's going on?!" Sparrow glared at the nurse angrily, but the other party was completely at a loss.

"Let me take a look first, Mr. Sparrow." Dr. Meryl came to Angela again and examined her.

Angela, who was still semi-conscious, seemed to be in a very bad situation, but the female doctor who checked briefly was relieved: "It's all right, Mr. Sparrow, Miss Mason seems... a little dizzy. "

"Dizziness?!" Sparrow opened his mouth wide.

Yes, Angela did faint, and this problem has existed since her previous life.God knows what's going on, anyway, other needles will make me faint with medical needles.This time it was fine, but she was sweating, breathing disordered and semi-conscious. You must know that when she was 6 years old, she passed out neatly when she got the first injection.

And before the injection, the doctor originally planned to give her an infusion, but Angela suddenly burst into tears the moment the needle touched her skin, and that was the first time in her life that she cried without image.

This is one of the few embarrassing things for Angela in this life.She didn't understand this very much, could things like needle fainting be brought over from her previous life?Moreover, after continuous training in the previous life, he was much better, but now he has become sensitive again?Because of being a girl?For growing up again?This is cruel.

In short, since then she has tried to avoid injections or infusions, and takes medicine when she is sick.Fortunately, she has basically had no illness in the past 19 years, and even the number of colds can be counted on the fingers.This was her second injection, so one can imagine how determined Angela was when she chose intramuscular injection.

"Don't tell anyone," Angela said to Sparrow in a threatening tone regardless of her weakness after regaining consciousness, "Otherwise I'll kill you!"

Fortunately, there were only four doctors, nurses, agents, and herself in the hotel room, otherwise she might have a massacre.

Well, after insisting on the injection for two days, Angela finally got rid of the fever. Although her body was still a little weak, she showed up on the set on time, but she often sat in the director's chair and watched the camera through the monitor after shooting. own requirements.

"Honey, you should take a rest and continue directing when you are fully recovered." Ms. Harriet, an "extra", said to her during the temporary break, and she was very sloppy by the makeup artist.

"Yeah, we can't run." The bald-headed Mr. Madigan, also an "extra," agreed.

"Don't worry, okay, I know what I'm doing." Angela, who looked a little sick in the high director's chair, squeezed out a smile, "I have to do it, but I have a sense of proportion."

These two extras are Jews living in Poland now. They participated in the filming of "Schindler's List" in Krakow six years ago, and they knew Angela at that time and had a good relationship.Although there was no contact after that, as Angela's genius name became bigger and bigger, it was impossible for them to forget.

The same extras as them, and many others, all knew Angela when they were filming "Schindler's List".This time, after hearing that she was filming a movie with the same theme in Warsaw, although they were suspicious of Angela's ability because of the controversy in the media, many people came to Warsaw when the crew was recruiting extras.

Angela maintains due respect for them all, because they are all survivors or descendants of survivors of the Holocaust, and they don’t get paid as extras like they did 6 years ago—of course they still have to be paid anyway, Angela is also not short of that few money-more importantly, with their personal experience and previous performance experience, they played very well in some of the more important roles.

For example, there is a scene where Mr. Madigan tried to snatch Ms. Harriet's porridge box from Ms. Harriet when she was in the Jewish ghetto, but knocked the box over and let the porridge flow everywhere.Ms. Harriet burst into tears, but Mr. Madigan, who was so hungry, crawled on the ground and licked it desperately.

Angela was amazed that the shot went over twice because of the excellent performances of the two of them, considering that she had earlier thought it would take at least a few hours to shoot.

As a result, Angela immediately adjusted the shooting schedule, giving priority to shooting the scenes of the extras, and then filming the scenes of the protagonist after Brody suddenly came to the state.Such an arrangement actually allowed Angela to keep the shooting progress consistent with the plan even after her cold was completely recovered. I have to say that there is still good luck after bad luck.Of course, sometimes the good stuff runs out—

"I need 20 people to perform this scene in the factory, excluding Spielman's family members, 6 women and 8 men. In addition..." Angela was talking about her request for the assistant director, when an assistant left come over.

"Miss Angela, there are three ladies who want to see you outside the set," he said.

"Three ladies?" Angela stopped talking to Bruno and winked at the assistant.

"Yes, they said they were your friends. One was a young lady in her twenties, and the other two were girls in seventeen or eighteen years old." The assistant explained.

"A young lady and two girls?" Angela suddenly had an ominous feeling in her heart.

"That's it, Bruno, do what I ask first, I'll go and have a look and I'll be right back." Angela said and followed the assistant to the outside of the set.It shouldn't be such a coincidence, right? !

It's a pity that God didn't hear her prayer, so when Angela saw clearly the three women standing at the outermost edge of the set talking with each other, a feeling of dizziness rushed to her head.

"Look, is today my lucky day?" Luckily, she adjusted quickly, walked forward with a smile and stood in front of the ladies with her hands behind her back.However, Angela did not notice that Kate, Jessica, and Natalie were standing at the three vertices of an equilateral triangle, and when she stood still, the equilateral triangle happened to become up square.

"Hi, Angie." The three ladies greeted her with smiles at the same time. Although there were joyful expressions in their eyes, they all stood where they were and did not come forward to hug or anything.Moreover, they looked at each other casually, and there seemed to be a faint inexplicable thing between each other.

Angela couldn't help feeling a big headache, so she took another step forward and quickly hugged the three of them one by one and then separated: "I'm so happy, damn why didn't I see you in the hotel, so I don't have to pretend to be a lady— —By the way, how did you both appear in Warsaw together?"

"Let me explain, Angie." Jessica smiled and said before the other two, "I have planned to visit you in Warsaw for a long time, but you know that at my age, it is impossible for my parents to let me I'm traveling alone. Fortunately, I still keep in touch with Kate occasionally, and she happened to be going to see you in Warsaw, so we decided to go together. You know I won't keep this kind of thing from Lindsay, so I'm packing When I was getting ready, she suddenly asked me if I could bring Nat. Because Manny told her on the phone that Nat was depressed because he couldn’t go to Warsaw alone. So in the end, after the three of us contacted by phone, it was decided that Kate and I would go first. Fly from Los Angeles to New York, and then come to Poland together."

Although there are still many things that I don't understand, Angela still understands the process roughly, but when Jessica spoke, she clearly saw Kate raised her eyebrows slightly. Although Natalie didn't express anything, her eyelids were always drooping.

What the hell did they say on the way here? !Angela secretly groaned in her stomach, but she still pretended to be happy on the surface: "Anyway, it's great that you can come to see me, it seems that I should celebrate today——wait, you guys are down Is the plane coming to the set?"

Just at their feet, several suitcases were placed there upright.

"Yes," Kate answered her question this time, "I originally said that I would find a hotel to put my luggage down first, and then come to the set after a few minutes of rest, but Nat suggested to go to the set first."

"Because we don't know which hotel you are staying in, it would be a terrible thing if we booked a room and you were separated by the whole city." Natalie continued to explain with a smile.

"Nat is very considerate," Angela nodded, "Well, I'll ask the assistant to take you to the hotel where I've fallen - I think you should stay in the hotel room to beat the jet lag, your mental state But it's not very good."

As she said that, she turned her head to look at the studio in the distance before she spoke again: "Today's filming is almost finished, I will go back to the hotel soon, I have plenty of time in the evening, and you will definitely not only stay for one day, Is it right?"

"Then we'll wait for you in the hotel." Kate said so after the assistant called the taxi, then kissed her face with the probe before walking to the taxi with the suitcase.

"We'll wait for you." Jessica looked at the place where Kate had kissed, her eyes flashed unwillingly, and she followed behind Kate.

"Don't make us wait too long." Natalie looked directly into Angela's eyes, and then left after she brushed her lips lightly.

Angela watched the taxi disappear at the end of the street before she looked away, then sighed heavily, and knocked herself on the head angrily.How the hell did this happen? !Don't let anything happen to you.

"Miss Angela, everyone is waiting for you." Another assistant came to the side at this time.

"Okay, I'll be right there." Angela nodded and brought Zhi He back to the set. For a few minutes, she even hoped that today's scene would continue to be filmed.

In fact, at the beginning, she was in a trance and did delay some time, but fortunately Angela realized that she didn't have much time to waste after all, so she finished today's task before the sky darkened.

"Among all the dishes, only apple pudding retains the British flavor, and the others, including lamb stew with potatoes, don't taste very good." Kate, who was sitting at the table after dinner, said in a lazy tone, sipping coffee.

She brushed her hair, looking radiant from the previous nap.

"I think it's because British tea is easier to make." Natalie sipped her black tea and glanced at Kate. "Frankly speaking, I think British black tea is pretty good in terms of diet. As for the dishes..."

She shrugged her shoulders with a smile, and her intellectual smile was also very charming.

"I think it's pretty good, and it's good to try foreign dishes once in a while," Jessica said with a smile while drinking apple juice. "Of course, I have to admit that British dishes are indeed simpler."

Her smile was sweeter than usual, making the viewers feel as if they had eaten honey.

"That's true, but as Jessie said, it doesn't prevent us from trying it, does it?" Angela tried not to show her headache, "Or let's try French food tomorrow... To be honest, I don't I really like French food."

"Why?" Kate showed a curious look.

"French food is second only to Italian food?" Jessica looked at Angela.

Although Natalie didn't speak, she cast a questioning look.

"Yes, the taste is really good, but..." Angela shrugged, "The portion is too small, every time you have to eat the bread in the basket to fill your stomach, why can't you be full while enjoying the delicious food?" ?”

Speaking of this, she suddenly began to miss dishes like boiled pork slices. Unfortunately, most of the western Chinese food has been assimilated with the local, and even many of them are completely different from the authentic Chinese food. Fortunately, grandma can cook many dishes.

When Angela came back to her senses, the three people in front of her had already started attacking her dissatisfaction.

"French raisins are meant to be savored, aren't they?"

"So there are always people whose desires are never satisfied."

"Apparently, she was tasting the food with her stomach pouch."

Seeing them chattering and talking, Angela could only pretend to drink black tea and continue to have a headache in her heart.God knows what's wrong with them, they have been tit for tat and chatted happily all night, and the taste of targeting seems to be unconscious behavior but it always exists... What did they say along the way?
