Chapter 114: The Young Gossip Girl

After making trouble for a long time, Lin Mingyang realized that this girl named Blake Lively was one year younger than himself. She was born into an acting family, her parents were both actors, and when Blake's older siblings had become actors, Blake's parents asked her to focus on school first.

Blake did very well in school, and she was involved in many activities including: her high school student choir, cheer-leading political axe, and student council president. Interestingly, Lively's brother-in-law is the one who played the role of Lin Mingyang's father in "Youth Musical", and it is also because of this film that she has become a loyal fan of Lin Mingyang.

signed his name on other people's photos, Lin Mingyang joked that this was his first time. He signed all the photos that Blake had brought, except for one, "I'll keep the rest for my reference, if you're interested in the character we offered, she's yours!" ”

"Really?" Blake Lively covered his mouth in excitement, "Can I really do it?" ”

"There is nothing difficult about this role, you will definitely be familiar with the performance!" Lin Mingyang explained with a smile.

But the same judge, the excited Blake gave Ex a hug, but he was embarrassed in front of Lin Mingyang, and finally only offered to take a photo with him. Although he smiled brightly in front of the camera, the depression in his heart was incomprehensible. Why can an uncle like Ex get a hug from a beautiful woman, but he, a handsome guy, is left aside.

On the way back, Lin Mingyang kept complaining about the unfairness, but Exx sighed: "This girl is really good, she has the straightforward eyes of Jennifer Aniston, the hearty smile of Cameron Diaz, and Jessica Simpson's big wavy hair and 17-year-old invincible youth, she is missing only a chance now." ”

"It's a pity that this role can't help her much, but since you are so optimistic about her, you can try to sign her into your economic company!" Lin Mingyang leaned on the back seat, he always felt that Blake-Lively's name was very familiar, and when he said this, he finally remembered that Blake was the actor who played the No. 1 heroine Selina in the TV series "Gossip Girl" launched by CW Channel in the future.

In that TV series with long-term popularity, the noble and mysterious beautiful girl Selina is the focus of the social circle of rich children in Manhattan, known as the "Queen of S". Blake's tall figure, wavy blonde hair and outstanding temperament fit the role very well, and she immediately became the new favorite of the media after starring in this TV series, and her popularity has been unstoppable ever since.

Lin Mingyang didn't expect that he would go to a New York college for casting, but he met the still young "gossip girl", which does have many ingenious factors. After finalizing the list of leading actors, Lin Mingyang successfully passed the AP course exam, and then he sent his application materials to Harvard.

After doing this, he did not wait for the school's reply at home, but directly took the formed crew to take the lead and came to Orange County, California, where the film was filmed.

Lin Mingyang admits that he chose the filming location here, which is related to the nostalgia in his heart. Orange County, south of Los Angeles, is a harbor town where many white middle-class or wealthy families live, and it is known as the richest county in the United States and a very famous tourist destination.

Lin Mingyang's first script "Orange County Boy" is based on Orange County. Although Lin Mingyang had not officially emerged in Hollywood at the time of the filming of this TV series, FOX TV spent a lot of money to buy the rights to the continuation of the TV series from him.

Now "Orange County Boys" has aired on Fox TV to its third season, and in the plot of Lin Mingyang's new film "Admission Notice", the prototype of South Harmon Institute of Technology, which was formed by the students themselves, is Chapman University in Orange County. While Lin Mingyang was enjoying the sunshine and beautiful scenery of the beach, he did not forget his work.

As a director and screenwriter, he needs to explain the plot and character characteristics to the actors before the film officially starts, but his way of working is very special, all in the company of blue skies and white clouds, beach juices.

Lin Mingyang chartered a beach, and the rest of the crew either swam or surfed, while several of the film's leading actors sat with him under a sun umbrella. The other leading actors all wore beachwear, but Blake Lively wore a bikini with a sense of surname, her long blond hair tied into a ponytail, and she wore a towel to cover the fullness of her upper body when she returned from swimming, but the long legs with a sense of surname were very seductive.

When she sat down, the male surnames around Lin Mingyang all swallowed their saliva collectively. In the end, Lin Mingyang coughed twice before he reattracted the attention of this group of "livestock" to himself. Today he wore a pair of beach shorts, the collar of his shirt was open low, revealing his toned chest muscles, and under the umbrella, he still didn't take off his sunglasses.

In addition to being pretty, Lin Mingyang's biggest purpose in wearing sunglasses is to facilitate his better appreciation of beauties, and no one else is too unscrupulous to stare at Blake Lively's beautiful legs, but Lin Mingyang is hiding behind his sunglasses, but it is a feast for his eyes.

Everyone thought that Lin Mingyang coughed twice, and was about to speak, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't have any further reaction, Justin Long, Jonah Hill and Columbus Sauter exchanged glances, and then looked at Blake Lively.

Blake Lively pointed at him, and the three men nodded together, and in desperation, Blake could only call softly, "Mr. Felix, can we start?" ”

She stretched out her beautiful leg under the table, and Lin Mingyang came back to her senses unsatisfactorily, "You can call me Felix in the future." ”

Lin Mingyang realized that something was wrong when he said this, and when Blake didn't blush and several other people didn't react, he hurriedly added: "Everyone else is the same, and they will call me by my name in the crew in the future." ”

None of the others reacted in particular, only Blake Lively heard something different from Lin Mingyang's words, her heart was pounding, and she didn't pay any attention to what Lin Mingyang said next.

Lin Mingyang didn't notice that the beauty next to him had wandered, and he began to tell the plot of the whole story:

"A college admission letter divides the students in a classroom into two camps, and those who are admitted are elated, and those who fail are depressed. A few families are happy and a few are sad, and Bartleby, who is empty-handed, is so worried that he doesn't know how to talk to his parents. ”

The reality was cruel, but there was no escape, and Bartleby had to tell his parents the bad news. His father was disappointed, his mother sighed again and again, and even his sister began to look down on him. Because of Bartleby's poor grades, the whole family felt disgraced, especially the father, who simply couldn't hold his head up in front of his colleagues and relatives. Discouraged, Bartleby was under tremendous pressure alone, hiding at home for the rest of the year. ”

A few days later, Bartleby received an email of his coveted college acceptance letter and he was unexpectedly accepted to South Harmon Institute of Technology. Lin Mingyang adapted the story of the jumping boy Bartleby into a script, and even the name of the protagonist has not changed, of course, this has been agreed by Bartleby himself in reality.

Bartleby's acceptance letter made the family overjoyed. Although South Harmon Institute of Technology is not well-known and the whole family has never heard of it before, it is a university after all, and the parents have a smile on their faces again. On the first day of school, my father drove Bartleby to school and met with the principal. Although the campus is not large, it looks a little dilapidated, and there are not many students, but they are all full of vitality, and my father went back satisfied. He never dreamed that all this in front of him turned out to be a scam. ”

"Exactly Bartleby's masterpiece. He couldn't stand the faces of his parents, so he found several other classmates in the class to discuss countermeasures, and a group of unsuccessful students with the same fate got together, and suddenly burst out with this idea - since no university was willing to admit them, they would simply rely on themselves, start a university, and admit themselves. ”

They elaborately forged college admission letters, set up admissions websites, and managed to convince a classmate's uncle to make a temporary guest appearance as president. Incredibly, they found a newly abandoned psychiatric hospital, repainted it, and the South Harmon Institute of Technology was born. ”

With the support of a group of unscrupulous but unusually intelligent young people, this ridiculously flawed plan actually succeeded, and the children were liberated under the supervision of S.H.I.T., because the school encouraged students to pursue the era of individualization. However, as S.H.I.T. grew in fame, it caught the attention of Dean Dean, the president of another prestigious university called Harmen. ”

"Young people have the right to pursue their dreams, and although Bartleby is subverting the traditional education system in the United States, his actions and those of his friends have constituted fraud, and the U.S. Department of Education sent an investigation team to review the credentials of S.H.I.T. University, and at the hearing, Bartleby made a generous statement and persuaded officials from the Department of Education that S.H.I.T. was officially recognized."

...... "Blake? Lin Mingyang's soft cry pulled Blake Lively back from the girl's infatuation, and she asked in a panic: "Has it started?" ”

Lin Mingyang helplessly helped his sunglasses, "I'm done!" ”

Blake Lively obviously wasn't listening carefully, but Lin Mingyang didn't give her an embarrassing chance, "Maybe we can talk alone later, now Lang, as the star of the film, you can repeat the plot idea I just had!" ”

"Me?" Justin Lang didn't expect Lin Mingyang to call his name directly, and his reaction now is very much like the demented expression of the male protagonist in the play when he encounters a problem.

"Perfect!" At the moment when he was stunned, Lin Mingyang took out a camera like magic in his hand and quickly pressed the shutter on the surprised Justin Lang, and this classic expression was recorded. Lin Mingyang handed the camera to Justin Lang, "Remember this expression, this is what I want to see in your performance!" ”

"I'll try to practice with this expression when I go back!" Justin Lang nodded earnestly.

"What about us?" Jonah Hill and Columbus Saut looked at Lin Mingyang with blank eyes.

"You don't need to have any special expressions, just get into the mood when you shoot and perform with the joys and sorrows of the characters!"

"What about me?" Blake Lively also joined in the fun and asked.

"Our makeup artist will dress you up beautifully, you just need to remember that Lang is a boy who is fascinated by you, and try to let go of your performance!"

Blake Lively added: "This is my first official performance, can I find someone to speak the right lines?" ”

"Of course!" If it was just him and Blake Lively, Lin Mingyang would definitely come forward and take on this glorious and arduous task, but seeing the expectation on the faces of Justin Long and Columbus Sauter, out of fairness, he still pretended to be generous and said: "All the men present, I think there will be this time!" ”

Hearing Lin Mingyang say this, even Jonah Hill straightened his back, hoping to get this opportunity, but Blake Lively just nodded, and then there was no follow-up.

"Any other questions?" Seeing that no one asked any more questions, Lin Mingyang cleared his throat, "Lang, Hill, and Sauter, the three of you have college experience, talk about your thoughts!" ”

"A school founded by the students themselves sounds great, and if there is such a school in reality, I would definitely consider transferring!" Fat Jonah Hill was the first to speak.

Black Boy Columbus Sauter picked up, "I think S.H.I.T university names are really cool!" ”

"And it's still an abandoned mental hospital!" Justin Lang's final addition has a chilled sense of humor.

"Because in reality, if someone really does that, then he will only be a madman!" Lin Mingyang shrugged helplessly, "I'm glad that you have focused on the school. But this film is not to expose the shortcomings of education, but to highlight the courage to pursue your dreams, which is actually what I want to express through this film. ”

"But at the end of the film, I still let such a university be founded, which can also be regarded as a kind of longing and a challenge. It is precisely because there is no such university in reality that the movie just let it appear and firmly defend its position. A real school, as the protagonist in the script says, does not need teachers, classrooms, and false traditions and money. It just needs to be a piece of soil that nurtures students' dreams. ”
