    Under the starlight in the night sky, a black Audi drove on North Santa Monica Boulevard.  Today is Martin Luther King Day, and the traffic situation is much more congested than usual Mondays. At this time, the Audi gradually stopped, and there was a queue of cars in front of it, all waiting to cross an intersection.

    "Amy Gray, I've always said that transportation is the greatest attribute of Los Angeles. It makes everyone feel like Gandhi."

    ¡°Haha, there are many good things about Los Angeles. The best thing is the weather. It¡¯s snowing heavily in New York right now.¡±

    "Every weather is good in its own way. New York has more of a cultural atmosphere than Los Angeles, which is like a country place with only movies."

    "No, there is a lot of great culture here, but it's just hard to find. I feel everything here seems to be foreign, like the Hollywood Bowl. This is very special, but I prefer traditional concert halls.  "

    "That's why I said that Los Angeles is like a country bumpkin. Either lie down on the beach all day, or go to these open-air places you mentioned to play. You know why there is no Disneyland in New York. Sometimes I really hate this country bumpkin. Sometimes  I also think it¡¯s quite cute, a bit vulgar, but more free, honest and leisurely.¡±

    ¡°Every city has its lovely and annoying aspects.¡±

    Ye Wei and Amy were talking about Los Angeles and New York. On this topic, each other had similar views and did not talk in a profound direction.

    When he could drive away, Ye Wei stepped on the accelerator and continued heading south, "I'm really like a novice on the road now." Amy chuckled, Ye Wei looked at her and said, "You know when "The Day After Tomorrow"  "The story is set in Los Angeles, what will happen?"

    "What?" Amy was very interested.

    "You all must die. Where can we find a library?" Ye Wei said.  Amy burst out laughing and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, I have been to the Los Angeles Central Library." Ye Wei nodded: "Okay, you guys finally arrived in front of the Central Library and breathed a sigh of relief.  I thought I could finally burn books to keep warm, but"

    "But what?" Amy asked with a smile.

    "You can't get in, all the doors are locked, and there's no one inside." Ye Wei said.  Amy immediately laughed again, and Ye Wei smiled and said: "Then Jake Gyllenhaal said, 'Damn, come with me! I know a place with an open library, and there is a group of nerds in it for a long time, Harvard-Westlake!"

    Amy smiled and asked: "What next?"

    "By the time he was considering whether to take you to junior high school or high school, you were all freezing to death."

    "Haha!" Amy couldn't help laughing, "It's a good thing it didn't happen in Los Angeles."

    Ye Wei let go of the steering wheel and spread his hands, "This is what Los Angeles does."

    "Be safe." Amy said with a smile, enjoying the relaxed and fun dating atmosphere. Viy is really humorous and charming, just like he shows in blogs, columns, programs, etc.

    Thinking of his blog, I remembered that he had been helping those girls who had been deceived recently, and I also thought of the girl he hugged tightly when he won the award tonight Amy asked: "The girl who attended the ceremony with you tonight?"

    "Modie Symington." Ye Wei said as he took back the steering wheel: "She comes from a small place in Utah. On the first day she came to Los Angeles, she was defrauded out of four thousand yuan, leaving only a few hundred yuan.  Maudie is a simple girl who is very shy and can hardly speak."

    He looked at Amy who was nodding silently, and knew that what he said to the deceived girls that day, "The biggest gap between you and star actors is your education level." Some girls disagreed with this. If they knew someone like Amy Rossum, they should  clear.

    Although the most popular and widely circulated stories are those about the American dream, where the little guy at the bottom suddenly becomes famous.  Most of this is a matter of old Hollywood. In fact, today, the film and television entertainment industry is no longer an emerging industry, which means that resources will inevitably be tilted towards people with high backgrounds.

    Many times, those people are indeed better.

    Is there any way? For example, Moody went to a regular public school since she was a child, and Amy Rosen went to Spence. Moody has never been on the stage, and Amy Rosen made her debut at the Metropolitan Opera in New York at the age of 7.  If Amy is better than Moody and has achieved greater achievements at the same age, it is natural.

    ?? Amy Rosen and others have higher backgrounds, are smarter, more knowledgeable, more mature, have more connections and opportunities, go to prestigious private schools and universities, and continue to learn all things.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Modi will fight with them It is never wrong to study hard.

    Of course, not all of them. No matter what their origins or education level, some celebrities are simply vulgar. He saw quite a few of them tonight, and it was simply disgusting.

    "Modi is a motivated person. She looks like it. I hope she is really like this." Ye Wei said.??

    "You helped them a lot." Aimizan said.

    "It's okay. I'm happy when I help them. It's a kind of mutual giving." Ye Wei looked at her and said, "I know you have done a lot in environmental protection and protecting animals."

    "It's okay." Amy said like him, thinking that he really knew his public information well, "What about you? Environmental protection? Protect animals?"

    "Of course, I love protecting the environment, and I love protecting animals." Because of his sincerity, Ye Wei said without hesitation, "Unfortunately, I haven't made much contribution until now. I remembered that once, when I was in elementary school, I protected a group of  Canada Goose.¡±

    "What's going on?" Amy said with interest.

    At this time, the car was about to park again. Ye Wei looked at her sideways and said: "One day, a few geese came from nowhere in the school woods. Wild animals always do this, suddenly appearing in a big way, and they took up residence there.  , and lay eggs. Some unfriendly guys liked to disturb them, and then I beat them up and said they were my geese.

    Their life became easier again. Soon, there were hundreds of geese instead of a few. The school had to take care of them and asked me to take those geese away.  But I'm just saying, those are not my geese!  But everyone started calling me Goose King (goo-king, fool king).  "

    Amy laughed, not knowing whether he was telling the truth or not. At this moment, she really wanted to reach out and hit him.

    "This should be something that doesn't happen in New York. I don't know, but in Los Angeles, there are geese (idiots) almost everywhere." Ye Wei shrugged.

    "No, there are also a lot of geese (idiots) in New York." Amy said with a smile, feeling that even the sunglasses could not block his sharp eyes, "Is this true or false?"

    "Really." Ye Wei looked back and stepped on the accelerator, "Not many people know, after all, it's been a long time. In this industry, you are the first to know."

    "I feel honored." Amy looked at his profile, the more she looked at him, the more excited she became.

    "Amy Gray, if you don't tell me anything about you, am I the first in the industry to know?" Ye Wei said.

    Amy looked at the night road ahead with a smile, the traffic was moving forward, the street scene was regressing, and her heart was beating happily, "I am a vegetarian."

    "Everyone knows." Ye Wei said, "This is one of the things I admire about you. I can never resist the temptation of delicious food."

    "Don't say that, it makes me ashamed. I'm considering not being a vegetarian anymore" Amy embarrassedly tucked her hair behind her ears.  Ye Wei said: "It's not very cool, but ok, Amy Gray, welcome back." She rolled her eyes at him with a smile, but then she wanted to wear sunglasses so that the other party couldn't see her, "No, come back, the earliest human beings were  Herbivore."

    "Really?" Ye Wei looked at her in surprise.  Amy nodded and said: "There is a scientific theory that our teeth are the type of teeth of herbivores, not carnivores."

    Ye Wei said with a smile, "Thank you, my old man never told me this. He would only say, 'If humans were like sharks, I would have developed a long time ago.' He is a dentist."  "

    "Hahaha!" Amy couldn't help laughing out loud. This was so funny. It was also funny to talk about teeth in front of a child who was a dentist.

    ¡°Then I was like, ¡®If humans were like sharks, I would have been the son of a doctor.¡¯¡± Ye Wei added.  Amy, who was laughing even harder now and couldn't stop, reached out and hit him on the shoulder: "Yu-are-so-mean!" Ye Wei tilted his head: "That's how Shaq O'Neal calls Yao Ming, 'Yu-are-so-mean!'"  -mean'! When he was taught by Yao Ming. What sports do you like?"

    Amy smiled and said, "I don't have any special hobbies. I learned horse riding in school, and it was pretty good."

    "Horse riding is cool, but are you sure only I know this?" Ye Wei asked, "Amy Gray, you have to be honest."

    "Well" Amy thought about it, and suddenly wanted to tell him something, "No one really knows about this. I only met my father once, when I was a child who just remembered."

    Ye Wei immediately turned to look at her.  Amy laughed: "It's a little weird to say this, right?" Ye Wei shook his head: "Not at all, that's what makes me feel honored. Amy Gray, now I understand why you performed so well in "The Phantom of the Opera"  ¡±

    The heroine "Christina" of "The Phantom of the Opera" lost her father when she was young.

    "Do you really think it's good?" Amy couldn't help but ask seriously, wanting to hear his true opinion.

    There are two diametrically opposed reviews about her performance in "Phantom of the Opera". One thinks it is very good, so she was nominated for Best Actress in a Musical/Comedy at the Golden Globe Awards last year, and Best Young Actor at the Saturn Award.  ;The other thinks it sucks.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Christina is a fool, a lifeless, feeble beauty.¡±"Voice, hollow eyes, stupid movie"; or this "Amy Rossum has a beautiful voice, but can't find a way out of it in this movie, disappointing."  "

    Except for the costumes and sets, the film critics did not give much praise to this version of "The Phantom of the Opera". It only has a 32% freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes, but it has an 84% audience love rating.

    "I really think it's good." Ye Wei also looked serious and said while driving: "When it comes to opera, you must be more accomplished than me. I won't say how good the opera version of "Phantom of the Opera" is. Many critics don't.  Realized they were talking about a movie.

    Can you find which movie version of "The Phantom of the Opera" in recent years has been praised by critics and opera fans?  You can't find it.

    Amy Grey, the movie version has a lot of unfair expectations, and there's always that kind of pressure when you're making a classic.  "Phantom of the Opera" is one of the greatest operas. For it, the most expressive and suitable place is always on the stage.

    The screen has the expressive power of the screen, the movie has the things of the movie, and the way the movie is made.  I know a lot of opera fans say, 'I've seen dozens of performances of The Phantom of the Opera, and I've seen all the movie versions, and Amy Rossum is the worst Christine among them.' Maybe that's true, but  This makes no sense.

    They are looking at the screen from the stage. Some problems are not your problem, but because of the irreconcilable differences between opera and film.  Like a performance, an opera is rehearsed and rehearsed, and it's all done in one night; a movie takes several months to shoot, and every scene and shot doesn't even follow the same sequence, and each has its own difficulty.

    However, when the opera starts, the stage is filled with actors!  The actor is the master.  But movies?  Sorry, Amy Grey, how you act and how you sing depends not only on what you think, but also on what the director thinks, what the editor thinks, and what the producer thinks So I can understand them criticizing the movie.  You, I cannot support.  "

    "Thank you" Amy's eyes under the sunglasses had a different look.

    Ye Wei continued: "Maybe because I am not an opera fan, but I can enjoy the story of this movie and your performance. It is really beautiful, too beautiful to be true!"

    It¡¯s not just beautiful. Your performance is incredible. You have your own way and your own understanding. You are not limited to classics. This is really courageous.  Every scene you perform shows courage.  There are great opera versions out there, and you still have to perform something of your own. It¡¯s so difficult, but you do it.

    And as far as the movie is concerned, I think your acting is more realistic. Christina is just a 16-year-old girl. With her youth, innocence, sweetness, her weakness, and her tenacity, I want to say you are perfect!  I want to say that every "Phantom of the Opera" fan should thank you because you gave everyone such a wonderful Christine.

    But I have to thank "Phantom of the Opera" for letting your youthful beauty bloom so thoroughly, it's great.  "

    "Thank you, viy, you praised me too much" Amy said nothing, listening to him and the pounding sound of her heartbeat.

    She likes hearing this, and likes his seriousness and maturity more than his humor. Although she already knows that viy is talented, watching and listening like this is really good.

    "My personal opinion." Ye Wei said, "Some people like you or hate you because of "Phantom of the Opera". I like "Phantom of the Opera" because of you."

    Amy felt like a deer after hearing this, but this compliment was really too heavy, which made her feel unbearable. She said seriously: "Thank you, but it's really ridiculous. My acting is not good enough, and my singing skills are not good enough."  It¡¯s just average, I¡¯ve fallen behind a bit musically over the years.¡±

    She sighed as she spoke, took off her sunglasses, and wiped her heated eyes, "I didn't feel very good during the entire filming period. I was just 16 years old at the time, and my body was still growing, but every time I shot  Wearing a corset 14 hours a day.¡±

    "It was really true at that time" She stopped talking and shook her head gently, "I could hardly breathe, and I almost fainted on the set several times. That affected me I'm not making excuses, I'm so sorry for my whole life.  This is the only chance I have to play the movie version of Christina"

    "Then I understand again." Ye Wei looked at her and smiled: "I like the weakness you show the most. You are weak yet tough, it's so touching. Isn't this God's arrangement? If you  It¡¯s not that it¡¯s hard, maybe it¡¯s not that kind of performance, so there¡¯s no need to regret it, you performed well enough, leave some for future generations.¡±

    "Maybe." Amy pursed her lips and smiled, folded up her sunglasses and put them in her handbag, "I think the best role I have played so far is 'Claire' in "The Genius"."

    "Didn't you forget?" Ye Wei asked narrowly.  Amy glared at him, "I remembered it again when you said it"?.  "

    "Emmanu, you are so cute."

    "Weige, don't talk to me in this tone"

    "Hahaha! Even cuter."

    ¡­¡­

    The stars and moon shine in the night sky, and the night becomes more and more intoxicating. It is already early in the morning, and the black Audi car drives to a parking lot west of the Santa Monica Pier and stops.

    The first person to step out was a tall young man in a black suit. He walked to the passenger door and opened the door. A girl with long curly hair in a long white belted coat and jeans stepped out of the car. Her tall figure showed curves and she had a beautiful face.  Smiling.

    Along the way, the two laughed and talked about many topics, mostly about art, a little about pop culture, a lot about classical fields, and also some wild topics.

    "If I don't engage in art, I want to be an astronaut." Amy put her hands in her pockets and walked on the beach next to the parking lot, looking at the night sky and the sea blending together in the distance.

    "Wow!" Ye Wei, who was walking next to her, exclaimed, "I know many girls who want to be astronauts, and I just met one today."

    "You know a lot of girls?" Amy tilted her head and smiled.

    Ye Wei nodded calmly, "There are many girls. But not many are interested in the universe and science fiction. Are you just talking about it?" Amy replied: "No, I really want to be an astronaut. I think about the moon,  Mars, go further.¡±

    "That's what I often think about." Ye Wei said excitedly, "Compared to the universe, human beings are too small. Do you like "2001: A Space Odyssey"?"

    "I like movies and books." Amy smiled and nodded.

    "That's really cool!" Ye Wei exclaimed, "'Planet of the Apes'?"

    "I like movies and books." Amy smiled and nodded again, and added: "I don't like the latest version."

    "Who would like it?" Ye Wei felt like they had similar interests. He looked at her stroking her hair that was blown by the sea breeze and said, "The ending of the 2001 version is more faithful to the original work, but the biggest problem with the whole movie is it's too stupid.  !" He said it was too stupid several times, "You know, you just can't be stupid like that."

    Amy laughed silently, showing her teeth. She thought he wanted to comment on the movie, but "too silly" was enough.  She recalled: "I remember when I saw the decisive battle, they used the engine of the spaceship to deal with the ape army. I was stunned, what!?"

    "That's a small problem, you just can't make "Planet of the Apes" like "Sleepy Hollow"." Ye Wei grinned weirdly, "Like a pretentious police story. Man, this is "Planet of the Apes" we're talking about!  "

    He suddenly fell to his knees on the beach, looking ahead with shock on his face, his voice rising from soft to loud: "'Oh my God, I'm backI've gone home, all this timeWe finally  You really did that! Damn it! You all should go to hell'

    Amy held back her laughter, this is the ending of the old version of "Planet of the Apes", the most classic.

    Whether he could see it or not, she played "Nova" and looked forward doubtfully, as if there was a broken Statue of Liberty there.

    "That's "Planet of the Apes"!" Ye Wei suddenly jumped up and waved his fist, "That's really shocking!"

    "So I want to be an astronaut." Amy said with a smile. Strangely enough, not only did she not feel that the other person was childish, but she felt that the passion was even more surging.

    "Try this." Ye Wei's eyes suddenly changed, full of vicious anger, "Home!!!!!!"

    Caesar's words.  Amy also shouted: "Home!!!" Ye Wei looked stunned, "Really? That's it? Where's your high note? Please!" Amy took a deep breath, raised her hands into fists, and used opera singing  Shouting towards the sea: "Home!!!!!!"

    This shout was so long and loud that it seemed to startle the sea and set off huge waves.

    "Hahaha!" Ye Wei laughed, grabbed her left hand, and ran back to the parking lot, "You're crazy. The security here is not very good, and you are so beautiful. Let's go!"

    "That's my fault?" Amy said angrily, passively following him.

    "Of course! I can't shout that high pitch."

    The two of them laughed and ran towards the Audi car. Soon, the car started moving again, leaving the beach and heading north.

    "Where are we going?"

    "Home!"

    ¡­¡­

    When Amy Rosen walked into the living room of this house, her heart was still beating fast and messily.

    I just met him tonight. It was our first date tonight, but we went to his place.

      Ye Wei said, "Have a look, I'll make tea" and walked towards the house. She looked around the unfamiliar living room. Everything was too sudden, everything was too fast, but under the growing emotion,  , everything seems to come naturally.

    Amy walked around the living room casually. The surrounding decoration was very simple, as if she had just moved in, and it looked like a studio. There was a large round table filled with various documents and books. She did not look through it, but  It can be seen that they are all related to his three film projects.

    His eyes were attracted to a blackboard hanging on the wall over there. There were countless papers on the blackboard, and each one was filled with something.  She went to take a look and saw some clues for the three acts of the "Soul Surfer" script.

    Feeling that she had been spoiled, Amy looked at it and walked away. At this time, she found several trophies lying next to the sofa, which made her laugh.  Seeing Ye Weiyi walking over with a cup of tea in his hand, she smiled and said, "Did you put the trophy there to let every guest know your glory?"

    "Your tea." Ye Wei handed her a cup of tea and looked over there, "The key is to push yourself."

    "Shouldn't you hide all the trophies to push yourself?" Amy didn't understand. While sipping tea, she walked towards the TV cabinet with the classical gramophone.  She loves performing, but she always has a special affection for music, which is her first love.

    "I don't know, I just want to remind myself that I have it and keep working hard if I don't want to lose it." Ye Wei frowned, took a big sip of tea, and walked away.

    "This gramophone is great." Amy put the tea cup on the cabinet, flipped through the pile of vinyl records next to the gramophone, and was surprised to find: "Do you like listening to old songs?"

    She opened her eyes wide, and the joy in her heart could not help but reveal, viy likes to listen to old songs.

    "Old songs are always my favorite." Ye Wei nodded and reached out to flip through those vinyl records, "I also love the most trendy music, but those old songs that have experienced the baptism of time have a very unique charm.  Just like you can touch the past, live in the present, and still look forward to the future.¡±

    "Yes, yes!" Amy agreed repeatedly, her heart beat so strong that it seemed like she was palpitating, and she hurriedly expressed her feelings: "About that part of the past! Old songs have a sense of sedimentation that new songs don't have. Music lies in emotion.  Resonance, I think the resonance of old songs is stronger than that of new songs. When you listen to old songs, you will feel how many people have lived in the past so many years"

    "How many people have experienced the same thing as you!" Ye Wei couldn't help but interject.

    Amy's eyes became brighter, "Yes! I have experienced so many of the same things and had so many of the same feelings. When listening to a song, the vast emotional accumulation is like a treasure."

    "Emmanu, I like you even more." Ye Wei stretched out his fist.

    "Me too, Weige." Amy bumped fists with him and playfully made a fist-fist gesture like she was burned.  She went to look through a set of records again, and suddenly she exclaimed and picked up one, "rainy-days-and-nights!" She looked at Ye Wei, filled with disbelief, "You like Carpenter too!  "

    Ye Wei was also a little stunned, "Carpenter is my favorite."

    "I love this song, I love this song" Amy looked at the vinyl record in her hand, her whole figure bathed in a wonderful and refreshing drizzle, and couldn't help but sing in her own rhythm: "Talking to myself  Talking to myself, I feel old. Sometimes I really want to give up. Nothing works right.

    ¡° Wandering around with nothing to do but frown, rainy days and Mondays always make me feel down.¡±

    Ye Wei nodded slightly as he listened, looking at her with eyes that were getting hotter.

    "Is it okay to sing like this?" Amy was full of interest.

    ¡°I have to say, it¡¯s not as good as Karen Carpenter¡¯s singing.¡± Ye Wei said with a smile.

    Amy immediately shouted: "Of course! How can I sing better than her, but!" She held the vinyl record in front of her chest with both hands, smiling sweetly: "I plan to make a music album, I'm going to  A cover of "Rainy Days and Mondays," which is my favorite song."

    "Cool!" Ye Weida was interested. "You have your own style, just like your Christina. I love listening to it! More, more, come on!" He made a commanding gesture to start singing.

    Amy adjusted her breath and sang passionately: "Walking around with nothing to do but frown, rainy days and Mondays always make me depressed. Everything I have now just brings melancholy, nothing is really bad, it's just  I feel like I don¡¯t belong here¡­¡±

    Listening to her singing, Ye Wei looked at her. At this moment, she was so beautiful that she was unreal, with her graceful figure, soft face, and big eyes shining like a poet.

    Without thinking about anything, he approached her with the fire ignited in his heart.  Amy is very tall, over 170cm, and the two of them are onlyLess than half a head apart, in the middle of singing, he put his arms around her slender waist and kissed her lips.

    "There's no need to say it, we know what it's all about" Amy's singing slowly stopped, without avoiding it, she was kissed by him amidst all kinds of wonderful passion.

    "Two young hearts are like a storm erupting because of passion, joy, resonance, mutual admiration, and an inexplicable indulgence and fanaticism.

    This is a wonderful night. At this moment, both of them just want to hug and kiss passionately.

    The vinyl record in Amy's hand fell to the ground and she didn't care about it. Ye Wei hugged her and took her out of the living room to his bedroom.  Amy noticed the little bit of consciousness she had left. She frowned, looking a little delicate and delicate.

    "Amy Gray"

    "What, what"

    "do not be afraid."

    "I don't¡­¡­"

    "Amy Gray"

    "What, what"

    "you are so Beautiful."

    "Thanks¡­¡­"

    "Amy Gray"

    "What, what"

    "I'm a little scared."

    "Me too¡­¡­"

    "Amy Gray."

    "Hmm"
