Hollywood Secret Garden

Both Angela and Peter accepted this plan in the end. Although it was a compromise plan, it was relatively fair, but Angela had to reconsider and practice singing methods, so this scene had to be shelved for the time being.

It doesn't matter, if you can't shoot this shot, then the next shot will be fine. The advantage of being in the wild is that you can shoot completely different shots from the previous ones by changing the scene and location. Of course, Peter will not allow only one shot in one place.

But it's a pity that the filming of this scene still couldn't start until Angela was about to leave New Zealand. According to her, there was no time.Basically, when she has free time, she is surrounded by satellite phones. It has already entered December, but the editing of "The Pianist" is still a little bit unfinished, which directly leads to the inability to combine the soundtrack, subtitles, and other fragmentary things. Together, this is why she must ask to leave just after the first ten days.

To be honest, Peter didn't want to let him go. He hoped that Angela would leave at least after the 15th, but Angela told him clearly that he couldn't do it, and even half-jokingly threatened him with quitting the crew to force the other party to agree.Of course, as compensation, Angela promised to try her best to return to the team after the Christmas and New Year holidays of the crew. If it is not possible, she must complete at least two of the three theme songs when returning to the team.This gave the dark-faced Peter a little bit of comfort.

"I didn't expect you to come see me off, Liv." In the VIP waiting room at Wellington International Airport, Angela looked at the woman still looking angry in front of her, dumbfounded, "I thought I'd have to wait until next time." You will only talk to me when we meet."

"I don't want to now either," Liv folded her arms and said childishly, "I just have to come see my friend off."

"Okay, Liv," Angela sighed, "Don't be like this, you don't have to ask me to be your girlfriend."

"Of course, of course, you are a big star, a big director, a millionaire, I'm not good enough for you." Liv bit her lip.

Angela couldn't help but frowned: "Hey, it's a bit too much to say that, I thought we were still friends at least."

Liv stared at her silently, and sighed after a while: "Okay, I apologize, I'm a little upset."

But then she pouted again: "As compensation, I want to know the name!"

Angela felt a little ridiculous, I don't think I accepted your apology yet, did I?But Liv obviously also saw that she was actually hard-spoken and soft-hearted, so she asked aggressively again, so the girl smiled narrowly: "What name?"

"Don't pretend you don't understand," Liv snorted, "I want to know who snatched you away when I hesitated!"

"Is this important?" Angela asked angrily and amusedly, "What's the point even if you know?"

Liv's pretty face was still full of childlike unwillingness, Angela just sighed and said seriously: "I won't tell you, Liv. It's not that I deliberately wanted to hide... I love them, the more people know The more unsafe it is, if you want to bear the pressure, let me bear it."

Maybe it's because of excitement or because it's hard to let go. Angela used the plural. She should be glad that Liv is in front of her, otherwise it would definitely not be so easy to pass the level——Angela, who woke up on the plane, was terrified and therefore more careful.

"I can hear it," Liv seemed a little sad, "the... emotion in your tone, strong emotion."

"Okay, Liv, we're still friends anyway, right?" Angela said, stepping forward to hug Liv, and then gently touched her lips: "Let's keep it like this." go down."

With Sky taking off, Angela finally left New Zealand, and she thought she handled Liv's sudden feelings well.It's just that she ignored the noncommittal attitude of the other party when she left, and she didn't reflect on her feelings or dig deeper.

The plane flew directly back to Los Angeles. Angela went directly to the film department regardless of the time difference. As early as she arrived in New Zealand, the studio in Boston moved back to California. After all, Los Angeles and Wellington are separated by only 4 longitude lines. time zone, and Boston is separated by 7 time zones.For example, Wellington at 12:1 on December 18st, Boston at 12:1 on December 2st and Los Angeles at 11:30 on November 22th, it goes without saying which time is more suitable for work.Even so, what Angela saw when she arrived at the film department was still "dead bodies everywhere".

"To be honest, Angie, if the salary wasn't high enough and I had collaborated many times, I would have quit." After everyone was woken up, an editor complained.

"I know, I'm really sorry, but there's really no other way. Let's do this, tomorrow is the weekend, everyone stays at home to rest for two days, with pay, and work harder from the day after tomorrow." Angela said sincerely, Seeing that she rushed over as soon as she got off the plane, she looked sleepy, and everyone agreed with her arrangement.

However, the girl immediately showed a hideous face: "Now, everyone, act immediately! You must complete my request before leaving get off work! Otherwise, you are not allowed to leave!"

Although there were complaints one after another, the people in the studio were still running quickly.There was no sign of stopping until the lights came on, and it came to an end after Elena called and strictly ordered Angela to go home immediately.

"Honey, I don't think you need me to remind you, do you?" the mother who sat down at the dining table said in a gentle tone, with concern and helplessness at the same time.

"I know, Mom, but Dad doesn't eat dinner at home every day." Angela, who standardized the dining posture for her younger siblings, replied with a smile, her naughty appearance was exactly the same as when she was a child.

"But I won't continue to work when I'm very tired, my dear." Jared, who was sitting at the top, raised his eyebrows.

"I've already taken paid leave from the studio, Dad, don't worry, okay?" Angela spread her hands.

"That means my sister can play with us tomorrow?" Willie exclaimed excitedly, looking at her sister with dark eyes without blinking, and Ike also raised his hands in agreement. "My sister hasn't been home for half a year."

Angela looked embarrassed, and after a few seconds of hesitation, she still showed a smile: "Okay, let's go out to play tomorrow, you can go wherever you want, and I will be your nanny."

"Okay, okay, let's go visit Lulu's class, she's making a movie." Willie said happily.

"Hey, it's up to you to decide," Angela shrugged and looked at her parents: "If mom and dad don't object."

After having a few conversations with the parents after dinner, and playing with the two little ones for a while, Angela returned to her room.The layout has basically not been changed and the cleaning is very clean. My luggage has been sorted by the servants, but it still gives Angela a sense of incongruity.

"Because Annie is still in Boston?" Angela suddenly thought of this after opening the notebook and found that the position was not placed correctly. Forgot all about how to do housework?"

Rolling her eyes, she stood up again and walked back and forth in the room for a few times, looking at the phone as if she wanted to make a call. After dawdling for a while, she sat in front of the piano and opened the cover to play.She didn't know what notes she was typing, she just moved her fingers according to the feeling, and in this way, the depression in her heart finally disappeared a lot.

As soon as the sound of the piano stopped, there was a knock on the door. Angela brushed the long hair next to her ear, stood up, stretched herself, walked to the door and opened it, followed by a surprised look: " Mother?"

"Who do you think it could be?" the mother who walked into the bedroom asked jokingly.

"Besides my lovely brother and sister, who else could it be?" Angela deliberately gritted her teeth when she said the words "brother" and "sister".

"Why, where did the little ones provoke you again?" The mother showed a curious look.

"Just as I was going upstairs, two little ghosts were arguing about which one should sleep in my room tonight," Angela moved the chair in front of her mother, with the back of the chair facing her mother, putting her hands on it and snorting, " They never consulted me on this issue, never!"

"Angie," my mother suggested, pointing to a chair.

"Oh, no, Mom, it's not in front of outsiders, why can't you sit like this in private?" Angela pouted and put her head on her arms, and said reluctantly.

"Okay, my daughter has grown up and rebelled, so I know I can refute it." The mother said jokingly.

"Mom!" Angela protested.

"It's so strange, my daughter can reject her mother, but she almost never says no to her younger siblings." The mother said leisurely at this time, and Angela, who was about to shout something, suddenly froze.

"You promised very reluctantly at dinner, don't think I didn't see it, honey." The mother smiled and comforted her daughter's face, "You have your own date, don't you?"

"Hey, yes," Angela rubbed her nose, "but it hasn't been decided yet, you know, I just came back."

"So who? Kate? Jesse? Or your rumored boyfriend?" Mom blinked.

"I thought I had clarified the facts, Mom!" Angela said angrily.

"So my daughter doesn't have a boyfriend yet?" the mother said with interest.

"Yes, I'm busy with a lot of things now, and I don't have time to fall in love, and... men in college are too frivolous, and men in the entertainment industry are too smooth, so it's hard for me to catch my eye." Angela said eloquently , "So let's wait a few more years, and you will always meet someone who has feelings. It's still the same sentence, don't worry, okay?"

"Of course, of course, I'm just asking. After all, you have never brought a boyfriend home except Jonathan. Sometimes I even wonder if you will bring one..." The mother changed the subject, "Girlfriend return."

"It seems that I didn't bring my girlfriend back?" Angela raised her eyebrows and smiled slyly.

Elena pursed her lips: "That's it, you just came back from New Zealand, go to rest early."

"Yes, Mom, you should go to bed early too." Angela stood up and hugged her mother lightly, sent her out of the room, closed the door and locked it, and then leaned against the wall and let out a long sigh, secretly glad that she got through. But I couldn't help being afraid, why did my mother suddenly come to the bedroom and tell her these things?

After leaving Angela's bedroom, Elena went straight to her husband's study room. Jared was writing something on the desk with the lamp on, and raised his head when he heard the door open: "How is it?"

"I don't know, Chris is still joking with me because of this." Elena said worriedly while sitting on the single sofa.

"You know what I'm trying to say, honey, you're thinking too much." Jared put down his pen and stood up and walked to his wife, "I know you care about her. She's still a child in some ways, but she's an adult after all, and we shouldn't dictate too much about her life."

"So you won't tell her for a while, right, about Jonathan." Elena looked at her husband and asked.

"Yes, after all, I knew it by accident, and the Vogel family may not know it either." Jared shrugged, "Chris will know one day, but not now."

"What if, I mean if, Chris knew about it long before dating him?" Elena frowned slightly.

"Mary, you really think too much, even so, it doesn't mean anything." Jedende comforted his wife, "I don't think you will ask Sparrow to come over to ask, or investigate her friends. right?"

"No, no, no, Jedi, I just have some...you know, this is a woman's intuition," Elena took a deep breath and looked directly into her husband's eyes: "Jedi, if... Chris really... what will you do?"

Jared fell silent, his hands crossed, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lulu, a kid, has gradually entered the entertainment industry since she filmed the public service advertisement directed by Angela. In the past few years, she has filmed many commercials and also appeared in many TV dramas.Moreover, she also has a movie queen aunt, the Duke's adoptive father, and a genius sister. She is also cute and cute, so her star journey can be said to be smooth, and she is now playing an important role in Warner's "Elf Mouse Brother".

Don't ask Angela why this movie is only starting now, or why Warners is making it, and don't ask her why the boy in the movie is turned into a girl.If anyone could deduce the traces of butterfly wings, humans would have landed in Centaur long ago.

Getting back to the topic, even though Emma Roberts is well-behaved and cute is a recognized fact, but it is only an image in front of others, Angela will never enjoy this kind of treatment, even if she dies on the set, she can still be fine The little one "bullyed" her to his heart's content.Of course, the little guy does it stealthily.

Therefore, Angela could only endure her harassment while also echoing the praise of the director and the lead actor: "Yes, she is very talented and has always been outstanding. As long as she keeps learning, she will become another dazzling child star."

Fortunately, the time I stayed on the set was not long, which was a small consolation in the depression.

After that, Angela played with the little ones for two days, and the confidentiality work was not bad. The reporters didn't realize that she had returned to Los Angeles. In addition, in the hide-and-seek game with the paparazzi, Angela's disguise level was always maintained. At a certain level, a few people had a good time playing.

Of course, the secrecy was only maintained for two days. After all, she visited Lulu's studio, and those staff who saw her entering and leaving the studio did not immediately notify the media.

What followed naturally was that the reporters gathered outside the villa again, although with Angela's departure before, the debate about "The Pianist" slowly began to cool down.But after the preview of "The Pianist" landed on major TV stations and newspapers after December 12, the public's attention once again focused on Miss Genius's overreaching work, so how could the reporters who smelled it miss this opportunity? .

And Angela, apart from announcing on her blog that she had returned from the film crew, still went her own way and ignored the reporters, doing two-point and one-line sports between home and the film department every day.Instead of nagging them and making them distort their speech, it is better to hurry up and finish the film. She has decided to speak with the facts, hasn't she?

It's just that the girl often apologized to Kate and Jessica on the phone. She originally planned to take time to see them anyway after spending time with her younger siblings. And these nasty guys were always snooping around, so she had to cancel these plans.

Fortunately, both Kate and Jessica understood this, which made Angela feel a little sweet under the pressure.

The final finishing work of "The Pianist" is not complicated. After spending a few days editing the final part, I remade some unsatisfactory clips before, and finally completed the editing part.Then, all the "parts" are done and only assembly is left.

However, this assembly work cannot be careless, otherwise Williams would not have flown from Boston to discuss the use of the soundtrack in depth with Angela.In short, everyone is spinning around. This is the current portrayal of the studio. After all, it will be Christmas and New Year holidays soon. Everyone knows that if the task cannot be completed, Miss Genius will definitely threaten and lure them. stay in the studio and celebrate the holidays with work.

Finally, after seven hellish days, "The Pianist" has reached 98% completion, the remaining 1% is the opening and ending problems, and the other 1% is the preview meeting!

"Arrange a trial screening right away. In addition, you can invite some special moviegoers." A relieved Angela said to McKinley.
