- "Wayne, you have to see that student film, oh my it's unbelievable! You have to see it, and then we can renegotiate the choice for Opal."
"What's wrong? Is the short film okay?"
"It's okay? You won't say that after watching it. It was actually edited, edited and scored by a high school student. Can you believe it?! That kid is a genius! A goddamn genius! Wayne, To be honest, I think that in a few years, when talking about Chinese directors, the first thing that everyone thinks of is not you, not An-Li, it is him, it is him"
"Oh, ohOkay, I will read it today and call you after reading it."
In the spacious hall, after putting down his mobile phone, Wang Ying's old face was full of confusion. After working together for a while, he knew that Trevor Abbott was not an exaggerated person. The reason why he praised the short film so much was so "Dance of Angels" is sure to be exciting.
A Chinese high school student? Pushing up his glasses, Wang Ying became more and more curious. Until this phone call, he had always thought that the so-called short film was just the last resort of AnnaSophia Robber's management team: to rush to shoot something that was equivalent to the third round of auditions, and deliberately He said it was a Chinese work to get closer to him.
Wang Ying didn¡¯t like this. In the second round of auditions, the result was actually clear, Saoirse Ronan won.
What¡¯s the point of doing these little tricks anymore, so he didn¡¯t watch the DVD for more than a day after he got it back, and almost forgot about it.
By the way, where did you put that DVD? Wang Ying had to think about it before she remembered that it was still in the briefcase and had not been taken out.
Now Albert¡¯s call is really an accident, what¡¯s going on? A genius high school student?
Wang Ying has never been associated with the word genius in his life. He was born in Hong Kong in 1949. When he was 18 years old, he came to the United States alone to work hard. Through hard work, he became a film director from a farm handyman.
He didn't make his debut until he was 33 years old, and his first Hollywood commercial film, "Cinderella in Manhattan", when he was 53 years old. The results were pretty good, allowing him to have a small place in the cutthroat Hollywood industrial machine, and then he made his second commercial film. , "It's Dai Qian's fault", with a cost budget of more than 10 million.
Although he can no longer stand the creative constraints brought by the Hollywood industry, in terms of rhythm and emotion But as long as he takes the job, he must do his best and be loyal to others and himself. That's why he's not an old farm handyman today.
Since the beginning of the year, the preparatory work for "It's All Dai Qian's fault" has begun. Up to now, all aspects have been almost completed, but the choice of the heroine has not yet been decided.
The third round of auditions ended a few days ago, and Saoirse Ronan won. If she shoots a sample film that goes through the process, the crew will sign a contract with her.
I thought the candidate had been finalized, but unexpectedly something unexpected happened. Albert praised him so highly that Wang Ying couldn't help but look at it, and he really became very interested.
"Where's my briefcase?" He looked around, but there was none on the sofa. Just as he was about to look for it, his old wife Miao Qian's voice came from the kitchen: "Wayne, come here and help me!"
"Oh, here it comes!"
¡¡
Las Vegas, after more than an hour¡¯s flight, Ye Wei¡¯s flight landed smoothly at McCarran International Airport at nearly 6 p.m.
After getting off the plane, Ye Wei sent a text message to his parents to report that he was safe, then hurriedly left the airport, took a taxi, and headed to Caesars Palace Hotel.
Ten minutes later, he could see the splendid ancient Roman-style five-star hotel, and his eyes could not help but condense, "Come on, let's win the game!"
¡¡
Because of the time difference, the clocks in different parts of the United States are different. The members of the Dream Chaser Alliance have calculated the time to watch simultaneously. Around 20:00 in Las Vegas, no matter where they are or what they are doing, You all have to turn on the TV and play the "Dance of Angels" DVD!
It¡¯s best to grab your family, friends, and everyone around you and enjoy this 10-minute feast together!
Most people are planning to watch it at their residence, while some people are planning to let the shopkeeper help play it in a shopping mall, a shop on the street, or an entertainment venue
"It's definitely not a bad image! Oh my god, do you think I look like that kind of person? What!? Am I vulgar!?"
"Sir, please help me. This short video is guaranteed to bring you more customers. I will lend it to you to play for one night."
"This is a professional work taken by VIY! VIY is the hero of our school. Let me tell you about his deeds"
"He is a dreamer! He is a leader! He is a man!"
Meanwhile, New York, which is three years ahead of Las Vegashours, so it is already 9 pm, and Manhattan is even more beautiful on Christmas Eve. There is a giant Christmas tree in front of the Rockefeller Center building, there are shining Christmas lights on the streets everywhere, and there are so many tourists dressed up as Santa Claus. Come¡¡
If there is a Santa Claus, I don¡¯t know what his expression will be. Anyway, people are very happy. This is a sleepless night.
At the Waldorf Astoria, Lily, her mother, her father's family, her sister and her brother's family have been staying here for the past few days. Of course, they are in different luxury suites. Except for the children, the two ex-wives don't want to meet their ex-husbands.
That night, Lily and her mother first had the first half of the Christmas dinner at the hotel restaurant, then went to her father¡¯s table to eat the second half, and also went to the table of her sisters and brothers to greet her, which was really a bit busy.
Then, except for the two ex-wives, everyone returned to the suite of their father¡¯s house to rest and get together.
But before long, before the scene of the whole family sitting on the sofa watching TV shows and laughing and chatting appeared, they couldn't stay any longer and were ready to disband and go out to play on their own; except for Lily, she thought everyone could stay until 11 o'clock.
"11 o'clock! Can we go out to play again after 23:15? Joely, Simon, Dad?"
Lily stopped in front of the suite door with a sincere smile on her face. She looked at her sister, brother and father, and then shouted to her stepmother and brother behind her: "Orian, Nick, what do you think?"
"No interest." 27-year-old Simon Collins said with a mocking voice, and his fat body was about to continue walking out, "It's so boring to stay here."
"Wait!" Lily just stopped and refused to let go.
A puzzled smile appeared on Phil Collins' old face and he asked: "Lily, why?"
"Yeah, can you explain it to us clearly?" 31-year-old Joely Collins was also laughing and didn't understand.
"Okay" Lily couldn't keep the mystery any longer. She wanted to reveal it slowly, but she said helplessly: "Come here." She led everyone to the classic sofa and took out a DVD disc from her handbag. , the smile became a little sweeter, "Dang dong! Guess what this is?"
"Please, guess what, you are wasting time." Simon was a little impatient, "Dad's concert video?"
"Lily, your video of the track and field competition?" Qiao Li also guessed the answer. She remembered that Lily was on the track and field team at school, and the event she played seemed to be pole vaulting.
Simon suddenly guessed again: "You also play rock and roll, right? Album CD? Haha!"
Hearing this, Phil Collins suddenly looked expectantly, "Really?"
"No!" Lily smiled helplessly. Their reaction was not as interesting as expected, so she said: "This is a short film made by a good friend of mine from the same school. It is professional level and well shot! I think everyone Watch it together, Dad, there¡¯s a surprise in there, you¡¯re going to love it!¡±
"Oh?" Phil Collins was actually a little disappointed. A short film about good friends? That's not what he wants.
"Watch it now?" Qiao Li looked at the large LCD TV on the wall over there. At this time, Orion dragged his son Nicholas back from the bathroom and asked curiously: "What are you watching?" Simon said in a teasing tone: "Lily is just a kid. DV short film.¡±
"It's not a DV short film, it's a professional digital photography. You'll know it when you take a look." Lily smiled, "But not now, wait until 23:00 to broadcast, okay? Let's stay here for two more hours and watch "Life" "How wonderful" is just right."
She hopes that the whole family will watch "It's a Wonderful Life" every Christmas Eve, but unfortunately they never do.
"Lily, why do you have to wait until 23:00?" Phil Collins asked in confusion.
"Because we were watching simultaneously at that time, many of us agreed to invite our families to share it together" Lily rolled her bright eyes coquettishly and said with a smile: "Anyway, this is a cool thing!"
However, people are not very interested in it. Teenagers are cool, in other words, they are stupid.
Simon lowered his head and looked at his watch, "Either you broadcast now, or I leave." Phil Collins didn't support it either, "Two hours is too long." Qiao Li knew that everyone had decided to go, so she advised: " Lily, will you play it now?¡±
They all invariably ignored her idea of ??watching "It's a Wonderful Life" together, thinking it was a joke. After all, the movie was not suitable for their "family."
"Everyone, listen to me" Lily's smile gradually disappeared, "This simultaneous viewing is of great significance, and I promise, the short film will be very exciting"
There is also a surprise gift inside! Dad, it's for you. She silently added that this was the main reason why she was here instead of preparing to watch it with her mother.
"oh, please! Let me guess what the photo was about, class? Fighting? The teasing and impatience in Simon's voice became more serious, "Wasn't it taken by middle school students?" How exciting can it be? "
"I said, this is a 10-minute short film! It's very serious and exciting." Lily was a little weak.
"Lily, everyone wants to go out and play, so why don't we watch it first? If it's cool, it will be cool to watch it now."
"NoQiao Li, this is still a kind of support, a kind of companionshipa ??kind of sharing"
"Dad, I want to go see the Christmas tree!" At this time, Nicholas said loudly, his little face full of demands.
"Haha!" Phil Collins looked at his youngest son and then his daughter, hesitating what to do. Nicholas called out "Dad!" again. He suddenly smiled and said, "Lily, Nick has wanted to see the night view of the giant Christmas tree for a long time. Can you watch the short film again when you come back?"
"Ignore her, I don't know what to do." Simon walked towards the door first, "I made an appointment with some friends to go to the bar, bye!"
Lily stood there, holding the DVD in both hands, with a serious face, watching Simon striding away, watching her father, Orian and Nick walking towards the door, "Lily, come!" Looking at Qiao Li who still wanted to persuade her. ¡
"Once, once" She suddenly spoke softly, her voice rising rapidly, and she shouted like a bomb exploding: "Once!! Can you please just once, can someone listen to what I said!! Someone listen to me What do you think! Some of you care about me!"
There was silence, and everyone stopped in a daze. Simon, who had not walked far in the corridor, came back and asked in shock at the door: "What's wrong?"
Lily took a deep breath and froze herself, "I'm sorry, everyone, I just wanted to just wanted to"
"Lily, it's okay, we are all listening to you" Qiao Li was the first to come to her senses and comforted her gently.
"I'm sorryI'll excuse you." Lily lowered her head and put the DVD back into her handbag, quickly walked to the bathroom, wiping the tears welling up from the corners of her eyes.
Until the sound of the bathroom door closing came, everyone was still silent.
