Chapter 382: May Time Go Back

“...... Mody!?"

Malibu, the front garden of the seaside manor was bustling, seeing the brown blonde girl walking in front of her, Ye Wei couldn't help but exclaim, her eyes widened more and more, the girl's figure, hair, face, facial features, and demeanor......

Her face is full of blush, her temperament is clear and ethereal, not a fairy that does not eat the fireworks of the world, it is a kind of simplicity far from the world, like a babbling stream, a secluded forest with shadows of trees, and a country path full of jasmine flowers-Modi, who has come out of a classical picture scroll.

And this picture, this face, he has seen.

Ji Ya looked at Ye Wei suspiciously, and also looked at the girl who had stopped, and suddenly shouted "Holy-Cow!" in her heart. It's beautiful!

"How could it be ......," Ye Wei muttered in a daze.

"Do you know her?" asked Gia.

"I don't know, but. Ye Wei walked up quickly, the closer she looked, the clearer she looked, the more incredible she felt, looking at the girl's light blue eyes, just like looking at a clear and sunny sky, if her gaze expanded to her eyebrows, between the demure and gentle, there seemed to be a faint sadness.

To describe this girl in one color, it is definitely blue, blue, melancholy.

"Oh my God. He admired unconsciously, and when he saw the girl take a slight step back, he realized that he was rude to stare at people like this, and laughed, "I'm sorry." ”

Because of his strange appearance, Gia was full of curiosity, could this girl look particularly suitable for which character? Susie? seemed to be very similar to Susie.

"Hello and welcome to Uncle Tom's manor. Ye Wei stretched out his right hand to the girl, "I'm Ye Wei, she's Gia Coppola, it's nice to meet you." ”

"Hello......" Mo Di opened her mouth slightly, her shoulders trembled slightly, and her voice was very small: "I am...... Mody Symmington, nice to meet you. She stretched out her right hand, and was shaken by his big hand, and immediately her whole body was like a fire, and it became difficult to breathe.

We’re-sorry...... We’re-sorry......

Hello, I'm Ye Wei......

"What!?" Ye Wei was stunned again, looked at Jiya, looked at the girl, and said with a smile: "Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking this question, is this your stage name?"

"No...... This, this is, this is my real name. Mody said hard and took a big breath.

"You mean?" Ye Wei asked in surprise, "Your name is Maude, M, A, U, D, E, Modi?" The girl nodded at a loss. He asked, "What is your birth name?" and the girl replied, "My mother gave it up." Ye Wei sighed: "It's so good, this is just amazing...... You're not kidding me, are you?"

Mody shook her head, "No." He didn't seem to believe it, as if there was something wrong with her name, and suddenly something flashed through her mind, and she panicked, "No! I used Mody Conrad the other day... That one... That's the stage name, that's the liar's last name, I, I'm ......"

Seeing that this girl was so anxious that she couldn't speak, Ji Ya cast a funny look at Ye Wei, what's wrong with you, can't people call Maude?

"OK, then you know, right?Modi-Modi?" Ye Wei was very excited, his horse is too godly, this is a miracle!

Mo Di didn't know what he was talking about, he was completely blindsided, was it a problem with his resume? The electronic resumes that were submitted to those brokerage companies before were all called Mody Conrad, but contacting Ye Wei's team and signing up for the draft were called Mody Seedington. She tried to explain: "Mody Conrad is fake, my previous CV wasn't real, sorry ......"

"Resume?" Ye Wei wondered.

"In, here. Mody immediately took out the new resume from her handbag in a panic and handed it to him with trembling hands, "It's true, this is true, I'm sorry." ”

"Oh?" Ye Wei took it with a frown, originally I wasn't going to look at any resume today, and today had nothing to do with casting, but I was a little curious about her, so I flipped through it.

"Delivering cows is cool. Ye Wei looked at her avatar photo again, and it was very beautiful, but ...... Hand the resume back to the girl, and said with a smile: "Your resume is very interesting, put it first, it has nothing to do with casting today." ”

"Oh, okay. Mody hurriedly put the resume back in her handbag, and could see that VIY's attitude had changed, and she was not as enthusiastic as she was just now. She did something wrong, she shouldn't have taken out her resume, he asked for her resume, not to show her resume......

"Well, Modi, please enjoy the scenery. Ye Wei smiled, and walked away with Ji Ya, walking towards the gate of the manor to welcome the arrival of the next girl.

Ji Ya was already full of question marks, and when she saw that the people around her were far away, she asked in a low voice, "What are you doing teasing a country girl?" ”

"Maybe she teased us. Ye Wei shrugged his shoulders and laughed, "I don't think her name is really Modi, that girl is very cunning." Ji Ya asked: "What do you mean?" Ye Wei looked at her in surprise, was there any mistake, "Mody Adams!" Ji Ya raised her eyebrows when she heard this: "Who? ”

Just as he was about to turn out of the garden, Ye Wei looked back at the back of the girl who was still standing there, and said, "Mody Adams, a Broadway superstar in the early 20th century. I used to be very obsessed with her for a while, all because of Richard Matherson's book "May You Turn Back Time" and that movie, "Seventy Years Back in Time". ”

Seeing that Ji Ya was even more confused, he was even more surprised: "You haven't watched "Seventy Years Back in Time"? Master Jiya, you don't know it, right?"

"I've seen it, but I'm not very impressed. Gia gave him a blank look, "Christopher Reeve is right, he went back in time to fall in love with a stage actress." ”

"Yes, that's it, the prototype of the heroine is Mody Adams. ”

"I don't know. ”

Ye Wei was really a little suffocated, and immediately took the lead and walked towards the mansion of the manor, asking 1510 to tell Ji Ya what was going on, and he had to find out himself.

......

Maude-Ewing-Adams-Kiskadden (1872-11-1 to 17-1953-1953) was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, to a bank clerk father and a stage actress named Arsenas Ann Adams.

At the age of nine months, she took the stage for the first time, playing a baby in her mother's arms. Despite her father's opposition, she began acting with her mother and spent almost her entire childhood in acting, when her father died when he was a child.

Modie Adams made her Broadway debut at the age of 16 and began her legendary stage career. "Romeo and Juliet", "The Little Priest", the first generation of "Peter Pan", "Rosemary", etc., she is a matinee idol, she has god-like acting skills, she is one of the first generation of national goddesses in the United States, she is a sold-out guarantee, and theater owners everywhere will double the ticket price when she tours, but it is still hard to get a ticket.

Off the stage, Modie Adams is a secluded, extremely low-key person, most often described as "shy", despite her growing up acting and still being unusually shy. She never gave interviews to the media in her life, and when she wasn't performing, she stayed on her farm and didn't attend any events.

He retired at the age of 44 (1916) and served as head of the drama department at Stephens College in Missouri from the age of 65-71. At the age of 66, he received his only film audition (1938 "Young Heart", Actress), which was not negotiated, and the 12-minute audition image remains to this day.

She never married, never had an affair in her life, and after her death, her assistant burned all the letters she had during her lifetime in accordance with her wishes, and her personal life remained a mystery.

The legend of Modie Adams didn't end with her death, when sci-fi thriller Richard Matherson (1926-present) saw a photograph of Adams touring there at Piper's-Opera-House in Nevada during a family trip in the '70s. At that moment, he fell in love at first sight with the actress who had been dead for many years.

"I fell in love with her whimsically. (That-creatively-I-fell-in-love-with-her。 "Richard Matheson said.

Matherson wondered if someone traveled back in time to meet Mody Adams when she was younger, would they be able to really have a romantic relationship with her?

He began to study Adams' life, but was rejected by her extreme seclusion. He then created a new message and wrote "May Time Go Back" (1975), in which the young writer based on him, Richard Collier, travels back in time and meets and falls in love with Alice McKena, based on Adams, only to return to the future and die depressed.

"May Time Go Back" won the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel the following year, and the 1980 film version of "Seventy Years Back in Time" was released, which was not good at the box office and film critics, but many years later, it has become a classic in the audience world.

"My God, the hair is like a waterfall! The hair is not dark, it is not blonde, but it is not russet either. She was wearing a gown, and she looked at the camera, at me.

Those eyes. ”

- "May Time Go Back"

......

"See, she looks like Mody Adams when she was a girl, this is it!

If Richard Matheson were allowed to see her, I was afraid he would have a heart attack with excitement.

I don't know if the eye color looks like or not, these are black and white photos. Her resume says she's also a Utah native, and her mother is also a theater actress. Mody Adams is shy to the extreme, do you think she's shy or not?"

In an elegant study room in the mansion, Ji Ya listened to Ye Wei's words, looked at the photo of Adams on the computer screen, and understood everything, "What a cunning girl! But what a horse!"

The girl obviously knew that she had a unique advantage, and made herself more like Modie Adams, but she was mistaken for clever and overdone.

Originally, it was very common to bump into a celebrity or celebrity, but even the name, birthplace and personality collided, and it was really too much. "Mody" may think that this makes her more special, that it may be useful to others, and that being clever with a genius like VIY is not only not favorable, but also disgusting.

"It's a pity. Ye Wei looked at the screen and sighed.

Gia understood his feelings, and felt that it was a pity, there was a sense of tyranny, and he was so cunning at the age of 16, which was the most unlike Modie Adams. It's not that we have to use Adams as the standard of behavior, it's better to be honest, especially since today's meeting is to let lies die.

"It's a pity. Ye Wei also said that there is nothing to blame for playing tricks in order to promote himself, and he has lied a lot on the road of struggle, and he can't be distorted and harsh because others like Mody Adams. He said: "In terms of appearance, she is a wonderful seedling, but I don't know what her acting talent is." ”

"Could it be that everything is true?" said Gia suddenly, "the name? Her mother is a fan of Mody Adams, and like you, she wants her daughter to be an actress like Adams, so she took that name." There are too many things like this, and there are often two people in the newspaper who are not related by blood but look like twins. ”

She thought of a key clue and manipulated the keyboard and mouse, "Utah is the stronghold of Mormonism, and many of those immigrants come from the same place, is that girl a Mormon? Her surname is Symington, right?" ”

Gia typed into the computer, googled it, and said as she looked at the results: "This is a Scottish surname." Mody Adams' surname is Kiskadden. It's also a Scottish surname! It's hard to say how related they are. Damn, Modie Adams is a descendant of Mayflower passenger John Howland, who arrived in the United States hundreds of years before we did.

You see how many descendants this guy has? He has 10 children alone, his eldest daughter has 12 children, and his second son has 10 children...... It's no problem for these ten children to have a hundred, and then there will be Mormonism, polygamy for so many years, God...... It's hard to say that Semington is also a descendant of John Howland, and his DNA and everything happen to be atavistic to his ancestors. As for shyness. ”

Ji Ya looked at Ye Wei, who was thinking about something next to her, and said with a smile: "She looks like a country girl, your big fan, the first time she sees you, it's normal to be excited and shy." ”

"It makes sense, it's possible. Ye Wei nodded, "Later, you can ask her, don't embarrass her, just figure things out." ”

"Roger. "I still like that girl, but this is really like a horse!"
