Chapter 73: Little Sunshine Beauty
PS: Make some changes to Angela's age, which was written earlier at the age of fourteen, and now it is adjusted to twelve years old for the needs of the plot.
In addition, I'm sorry, it's still a single shift today, I forgot to close the window when I went to bed last night, and I caught a cold in the morning, and I was uncomfortable.
-------------------------------------------------------
For this opportunity, both Tang Feng himself and others in the company attach great importance to it.
Although "The Oprah Show" has only been on the air for four years, it is already the most watched talk show on the whole network, with no less than 30 million fans in North America.
Being able to promote the movie on this super platform will play a huge role in promoting the box office!
And Tang Feng, who has just experienced the smear incident, needs to speak out on the show and explain the truth of the matter to the audience across the country in order to restore his reputation.
The next morning, Tang Feng boarded the plane to Chicago with producer Wilton, assistant director Quentin, actors and actresses Pete and Monica, as well as Angela and some accompanying staff.
Although the agreed time was on Wednesday this week, in order to fully cooperate with the recording of the program team, they still set off a day in advance.
As a partner, Tang Feng was very aware of Wilton's mentality, so this time he did not bring William and Anne, but Wilton, who was eager to become famous.
Needless to say, Pete and Monica can show their faces on the hottest talk show in the United States, which can be said to be of great benefit to their future careers.
As for Angela, it is Tang Feng's main emotional card, he is not ready to say too much on the show, and he does not feel that chattering on the show will help him recover his image.
Instead, he hopes that everyone can see the real Angela, and he believes that when everyone sees the lovely Angela, there is no need for him to make any excuses, and those shameless lies will be self-defeating.
......
The recording went smoothly and it took only one afternoon to complete.
They didn't stay in Chicago too much, and Tang returned to Los Angeles with the main creative members that night.
Even if the box office has picked up, he has to rush back to the town as soon as possible, only in this way can he be more down-to-earth.
Due to the reduction of the theater schedule, although the popularity of the movie is gradually rebounding, it has not actually reached the level of the first week, but it has always stabilized between 2.3 million and 2.6 million.
After the recording, everyone was waiting for the weekend to come, hoping that after the end of this week's "Oprah Show", there would be a peak of concentrated movie-watching.
On Saturday night, the "Oprah" show aired on time, and at the beginning of the show, Oprah said: "It's another beautiful weekend, and you who are sitting in front of the TV can't wait to know the topic of the week, right?"
"Well, as you would like, today I'm going to tell you about an incident that happened in Los Angeles not long ago. ”
"In order to give the uninformed audience an intuitive understanding, let's first watch a short film. ”
Then, the TV showed what happened in front of several theaters in Los Angeles last weekend.
In front of a movie theater, more than a dozen young men and women dressed in fancy costumes brutally distributed colorful newspapers to the audience queuing up to buy tickets, and even rudely pushed and shoved the audience who did not accept it.
This was followed by an interview with Julia on TV, focusing on her accusations against Tang Feng himself, as well as the Eastern Police Department and the auditions.
Then there was the scene where Tang Feng walked out of the gate of the court after the trial and was surrounded by reporters.
After the short film ends, the camera cuts back to Oprah, and that's when she gives her opinion.
"It's hard for me to imagine that in Hollywood, where big names are gathered, someone would use such despicable acts to frame a talented young director!"
"Many people may have heard about this incident and know the outcome of the trial, although we do not yet know what kind of punishment the perpetrators of the incident will receive. ”
"But I believe that in the face of a fair and just law, they will eventually be severely punished!"
"Next, I would like to invite our guests, Sean Taylor Tang, who flew from Los Angeles, and the main creative members of the popular "Killer Tragedy"!"
At this time, Tang Feng led everyone to the big stage, and after greeting Oprah, he sat on the sofa that had already been set up.
Since this episode of the show is not a singing and dancing program, the scene of the show is not too fancy, but a set of sofas is placed in the stage area.
After sitting down, Oprah changed her seriousness just now, and praised with an exaggerated expression: "Wow, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I couldn't believe that such a young and handsome boy would be the director of "Killer Tragedy"!"
"I heard that you not only wrote the script, shot the film as a director, but also became the owner of two companies!"
"Oh my God, this is incredible, can you tell me how old you are this year? Twenty, or twenty-two?"
Tang Feng replied humorously: "Aunt Oprah, in fact, I am eighteen years old this year, if it weren't for making movies, I would be an ordinary freshman at USC now." ”
Oprah patted her face cooperatively, pretending to be angry, and said, "Do I look that old? Well, maybe it's a genetic problem." ”
Her actions immediately caused a burst of laughter, but she didn't mind this, but asked Tang Feng with a serious face: "Although this will make you sad, I still want to hear your opinion on this incident." ”
"As far as I know, you haven't made any official declarations from beginning to end, don't you want to defend yourself?"
Tang Feng said with a flat expression: "Now the facts have proved that all the reports at the beginning were deliberate smearing and slandering against me and my friends who have always supported me. ”
"Although this incident had a very bad impact on me and my film, it has passed, and I don't think there is any need to discuss it anymore. ”
"Time will tell what kind of person I am, so let's talk about the movies that are coming out, and I think the audience in front of the TV will enjoy it. ”
Oprah nodded and said, "Okay, then please watch another short video." ”
"For those who haven't seen the movie yet, I dare say it's the best action movie I've ever seen, and I'm sure you'll have the urge to go to the cinema after watching this video. ”
"However, I would like to warn you that it is getting late, so let's get a good night's sleep and wait until tomorrow to feast your eyes!"
......
After the short film was played, Oprah first introduced the people on the scene to the audience, and then asked some questions about the movie, and Tang Feng and the creators gave good answers.
Seeing that the show was coming to an end, Tang Feng also guided the topic to Angela in a timely manner.
"I've done a lot of explanations about parkour, and I don't know if the audience can understand it. ”
"I would say that although it appeared in the movie, it was by no means a violent action in the ordinary sense. ”
"Like rock 'n' roll that everyone loves, it's the spirit and meaning of parkour that it celebrates, it's the indomitable and tenacious nature that challenges the lives around us......
Then, he turned his gaze to Angela and asked in a gentle tone, "Angela, why do you look sullen?"
"Here, let's say hello to everyone. ”
Angela nodded, and then said solemnly, "Good evening, viewers in front of the TV." ”
"My name is Angela, and I'm Sean's sister, well, the dearest and dearest sister!"
Listening to her words, Oprah smiled and said, "Oh, I'm sorry, we were talking about the movie just now, but we snubbed the lovely Angela." ”
"Angela, have you seen any of Sean's films, and what do you think of his masterpiece?"
Angela immediately said with a face full of grievances: "I just came back from the orphanage, and my brother was in a bad mood because of the bad box office during this time, so I didn't bother him." ”
Oprah was immediately captured by her well-behaved and sensible, and praised with love on her face: "What a sensible little girl, if Sean agrees, how about I take you to see it tomorrow?"
After speaking, she pretended to be angry and said to Tang Feng: "Look at you, just busy with your own affairs, you have left our lovely Angela in the cold." ”
Before Tang Feng could speak, Angela hurriedly said, "Don't blame my brother, he is the best for me!"
"It's all the old witch's fault, otherwise I wouldn't have been sent to an orphanage, and my brother wouldn't have been framed by her. ”
In order not to make her sad, Tang Feng did not tell her the truth of the matter, so now Angela only knows that Julia is in trouble with Tang Feng again.
Immediately afterwards, Angela showed a sweet smile and said to Oprah with a happy face: "On the day I just came back, in order to celebrate my birthday, my brother personally wrote me a song, do you want to listen to it?"
Oprah looked at Tang Feng in surprise and said to him, "Really? You haven't said anything about it, although there is not much time left, but I also want to hear what kind of song it is." ”
"I think the audience in front of the TV would like to hear this song too, right?"
Tang Feng made a helpless expression, and then said to Angela, who looked a little nervous: "Since this is the case, then you can sing to everyone, just like you usually do, don't be nervous." ”
Angela nodded heavily, then held her small belly, followed Oprah to the front of the stage, and sang seriously.
"Every time, I am strong in wandering loneliness. ”
"Every time, even if I was hurt, I didn't shed tears.
I know I've always had invisible wings.
Take me flying!
Fly over the ...... despair"
When Angela sang this uncomplicated but touching melody in a slightly immature voice, she immediately won everyone's applause and praise.
And Angela, who had never experienced this kind of scene, was so ashamed that her face was flushed and she hid in Tang Feng's arms, and her chubby appearance was very cute.
Oprah applauded and said with a smile: "Haha, I really like you so much, Angela, you are a cute little beauty full of sunshine." ”
Hearing her praise, Tang Feng suddenly had an idea, and then gently patted Angela, who was like an ostrich, and said excitedly: "That's right, what you said is so right!"
"Actually, in addition to singing, I think Angela is also very talented in acting. ”
"So, I'm going to make a movie for her next!"
"The name of the movie, for the time being, it's called "Little Sunshine Beauty"!"
Although Oprah was very unaccustomed to the way the brothers on the stage did not play according to the script, she still cooperated with Tang Feng very well, and asked in surprise: "Wow, is this true?"
"I remember you said just now that the second film you're working on is "Deadly Romance" written by Quentin, do you want to make two movies together?"
"Is that what you just thought? I'm so honored to see a movie born on my show, I've never had that before!"
Tang Feng replied with a smile: "I am also shocked to have such an idea. ”
"But that's really my truest thought, I'm going to make a movie for my favorite Angela, and she's going to be the main character of the movie!"
The whole show was here, and it was almost over, so Oprah immediately said the end after Tang Feng made the announcement.
"Well, I just want to say that I envy Angela so much for having a brother who loves her like this!"
"So, finally, thank you Sean and his team for being a guest at my show. ”
"Oh, by the way, and the cute little sunny beauty, Angela!"
"Hopefully, soon, we'll see 'Little Sunshine' with Sean and Angela, and 'Deadly Romance' directed by Quentin!"
"Don't make us wait too long!"
