"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to Anna Sophia, happy birthday to you—"

At night, in Westwood, Anna's rented house is brightly lit, and the spacious dining room is filled with joyful singing.

On the round table was a large three-tiered fruit cake with ten candles, the candlelight flickered, and the table was full of guests, as well as Toto and Bella, who were drooling at the cake.

Anna stood in front of the cake, she was wearing a new white dress today, reflecting the pale gold show still with a warm light, and the bright smile on her face, she really looked like a little angel.

Because Anna's family doesn't have many personal friends in Los Angeles, today's guests are only Ye Wei's family, fellow actor Taylor Dorey, and her parents.

"Anna, make a birthday wish!" said Janet with a smile after singing the happy birthday song.

Anna looked at everyone, closed her eyes slightly, held her hands, and made a wish out loud: "I hope that my first on-set performance can be performed well, I hope to get a movie role soon, and hopefully, the current date can continue!" She glanced at Ye Wei and blew out the candle in a few breaths.

"You made three wishes, but the birthday old man only has two ears, and the last one can't hear. Ye Weiai's helpless appearance made everyone laugh.

"But he still has a heart, he can feel it. Anna said it seriously, making the adults even more happy, and she and Taylor Doure smiled and glared, and responded well!

After making a wish, it was time to cut the cake, and Toto and Bella were the happiest, and they each ate a large piece.

After that, it's gift time, this country likes to open gifts in person, and if you have a congratulatory card, you have to look at it, otherwise it will be arrogant and rude.

In the living room of the house, Anna opened the gifts in public, and the adults gave them children's toys and school supplies at the right price, Taylor Doure gave a delicate bead bracelet, and Duoduo gave a baby doll.

And Ye Wei's gift, Anna didn't open it until the end, her face was full of expectation, and everyone was a little curious, what could it be?

The gift box is not big, and there is a greeting card tied with a gift ribbon on it, Anna took out the greeting card first and looked at it, and said with a grin: "I wish Anna Sophia Robb a happy 1o birthday!" and then it was gone, she couldn't help but look at Ye Wei in disappointment, "It's just like this......"

"Anna!" both David and Janet cried, it was so rude, whether they liked it or not, they had to marvel at how great it was to receive a gift, saying that they liked it very much, and that this was etiquette.

"Haha!" Everyone saw Ye Wei laughing: "I deceived you, I prepared two greeting cards, and this!" He magically took out a rolled piece of drawing paper from his sleeve and unfolded it, it turned out to be a sketch, Anna's smiling face!

"Wow!" Anna exclaimed, "This is great!"

She hurriedly took it, her big eyes were round, no matter how she looked at it, there was a line of pen words and Ye Wei's Chinese and English signature, she read: "Anna Sophia Robb, now you are just a 1o year old little girl, but in the future, you will be a great actor and a big star." ”

"It's so well drawn!", "It's like." Everyone also laughed and praised, Taylor Durey was envious, and Duoduo coquettishly said: "Brother, I want it too!"

This gift, is enough for Anna to be happy, the gift box has not been opened, and when it is opened, it is a small mirror with a beautiful copper handle, and there is an unbleaching marker pen on the mirror "ah-nasophia", although it covers a little space, but it seems to have some deep meaning.

Everyone was curious, and Anna was about to ask, but Ye Wei explained: "Ana, I think you will definitely become a well-known child star in the future, what kind of impact and changes will fame bring to your life? That's what you can't imagine now, and I don't know." I just want to wish you, no matter what, always be happy. ”

"If one day, whether because of success or failure, you feel lost, then look in this mirror, perhaps, you can find yourself. ”

David and Janet were both moved, Du Lei's parents praised each other, Ye Haogen and Gu Qiao looked at each other with a smile, and their son was the most considerate and caring person here.

"Thank you......" Anna was still young and couldn't fully understand his mind, but she was also very moved, knowing that he was thinking about her, and nodded: "This is the best gift I have ever received, both!"

Everyone didn't feel offended, and when it came to their hearts, no one could compare to Ye Wei this time.

"Cool. Ye Wei laughed, it seems that Costco really has a lot of good things, and I have to go shopping again when I have time.

......

When December 9th and 1o are also a thing of the past, the preparation of "Dance of Angels" has reached 99% completion!

On the afternoon of the 11th, a team of people sneakily left the USC Equipment Center, each pushing a small cart, each loaded with various camera equipment.

On this side of Macrantok Boulevard, Ye Wei and a hired pickup truck are waiting, ready to transport the equipment home, which is also tomorrow's set.

When he saw the sneaky figures of the eight Arhats, his eyes lit up, and he immediately ran up, shouting with a smile: "Brothers, well done, proud of you!"

He immediately looked at the camera on Darum's cart, Sony HDC-F95O, the second generation of digital cameras just launched this year, the best digital camera on the market now! With the use of hdcam-sR digital HD tape, it can achieve RgB full-bandwidth recording, and Lucas used it to complete the shooting of "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Sith" this year!

"Wow, this is good, 'what you see is what you get', haha!" Ye Wei touched the body of the camera and admired: "You know, the Japanese have done such a good thing." ”

After looking at the camera, he continued to look at other things, tripods, gimbals, Steadicam, lighting equipment, radio equipment, portable TV monitors, walkie-talkies...... There are also some small tools on the set such as clothespins and small pliers, like what he said, this is professional!

"Wow, baby, I miss you!"

Then he picked up a Fresnel lamp, a 1ooo watt soft light, and he held it like a lover, "Cool, guys, this is really cool." ”

This kid even knows the jargon on the set of the 5oo-1ooo tile soft light called "BaBy", if it wasn't taught by the teacher, Darum and the others wouldn't understand, why did he understand? But they are no longer surprised, I heard that his family made a movie, probably learned it on the set at that time.

"Yes, if you like it......"

"Hahahaha!" Ye Wei laughed indulgently, with these treasures, with this team, within three days, he could shoot the image he wanted!

He picked up another electronic clapperboard, clicked, and hit it, full of anticipation!

......

That night, the pre-launch party of "Dance of Angels" was held at the "Good Taste Country" restaurant.

Although he saved a lot of money in terms of equipment, dozens of people would attend this time, and Ye Wei naturally couldn't take them to expensive places such as Michelin restaurants and Hilton hotels, he was the one who paid the bill.

But taking care of the stomach of the members is too important after all, everyone is paid zero, not to mention the students, what are the amateur and semi-professional actors trying to do?

On the one hand, of course, it is because of hobbies, and secondly, because participating in these performances can allow them to experience something interesting and addictive to filmmakers in their ordinary daily life.

If it's not enjoyable? It's not morale-gracing.

It was Bard who helped a lot, and his restaurant was closed for a day, clearing the venue to entertain the crew of "Dance of Angels" for only a cost price.

Ye Wei stipulated that the leading actors can bring their families, the close-up group performances can come by themselves, and the eight Arhats can each bring a friend, in addition, Lev and other members of the Dream Chaser Alliance have arrived, but they have to pay out of their own pockets, despite this, the restaurant is still crowded, and it is difficult to turn around, and it is endless.

At this time, the restaurant was full of laughter, everyone laughed and talked in twos and threes, got to know each other, and established feelings.

This is a good start, only by identifying yourself as a member of the team will you have a higher sense of responsibility and greater enthusiasm for work.

Anna's family is communicating with the two middle-aged actors who play Anna's parents, Ye Wei is very satisfied with this, and after today, their feelings about the role will inevitably get better.

Toto and Bella are also here, running around, eating good food, don't forget that Bella is also the starring role, and it's important to make it happy, but don't eat a bad stomach!

In the corner of the "Mmmmmm......" restaurant, Bard is eating like crazy......

"Hi, it's a nice day. On the other side, Lev plucked up the courage to go up and talk to Susan, a beautiful college student, and Susan answered "Yes", and Lev walked away with a smirk, excited, scared!

Colwin is holding a dV machine and shooting around, these images will also be Ye Wei's lobbying materials, look at this grand dinner, he set it up single-handedly.

Chen Nuo, Li Ming and others were talking about something, even the most stupid nerds were infected by the lively atmosphere at this time, and they were very excited.

"I'll just say that Harvard-Westlake students are rich. At the door, Darum sighed again, "What will start tomorrow is really just a short film for middle school students, and now it's like an independent feature film."

Pareira next to him suddenly saw something, "Look over there! Hearing this, Darum looked at the door, but he could only see it because of the distance, only to see Ye Wei welcoming a middle school girl who had just arrived, and the intimate appearance was obviously not an ordinary friend, he said excitedly: "Oh, Anna is also there." ”

Is there going to be a Mars hitting the Earth?

Ye Wei was very happy that Lily could come, because her mother's side also had a dinner event today, and she said before that she wasn't sure if she could come over, but now she pushed off her mother's side and came here. He smiled, "Thank you for coming, it makes me look like a big guy." ”

"I just want to have a good meal, the kind of charity dinner you can't eat. Lily laughed and looked around, looking a little nervous, as his family was also in the restaurant, and she had had a very rude and awkward look with them in the last month......

Although it is the status of an ordinary alumnus, and there are so many people, it is ......

Before the two could say a few words, Duoduo suddenly ran over and shouted, "Brother, brother!"

"What's wrong?" Ye Wei looked at her, and Lily also looked at this cute little girl, her mood suddenly relaxed a lot, and she smiled.

Duoduo said hurriedly: "Bud has eaten a lot of things, I saw it." Before, Ye Wei asked her to help keep an eye on Bud's food.

"Forget it, let's make him happy tonight. Ye Wei shrugged his shoulders and pointed his palm at Lily: "Let me introduce you, this is Lili, my alumnus." Lily bent down, stroked her head, and greeted, "Hey, Dorothy, I've often heard your brother talk about you. ”

"It's you!the girl who ran away from our house that day!" Duo Duo exclaimed, remembering the incident last month, "You're my brother's girlfriend, right?"

"No......" Ye Wei and Lily both laughed, but seeing that he denied it so quickly, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Tonight is not the time for her to misbehave, Ye Wei bent down to cover Duoduo's mouth, glared and said: "Don't talk nonsense, children don't understand, shut up for me!" Duoduo whined: "Mom, Mom......"

She saw it, she jumped over, looked at Lily, stretched out her hand and smiled, "Hi, I'm Anna Sophia-Rob!"

"Lily Collins. Lily shook her hand, and couldn't help but look at her, her eyes wandering with something.

Anna wrinkled her nose and said seriously: "I just want you to know that I am dating Wei and I." ”

"Which one?" Ye Wei exclaimed, looking at Lily, she smiled strangely, I don't know if she was angry or funny, but she obviously had a trace of unkindness in his eyes, and her voice seemed insincere: "I already know, this is his freedom, I mean, we have nothing to do with each other." ”

"Hey, Darum, what are you telling me to do?" Ye Wei suddenly looked at Darum over there, and walked over as he spoke: "What? What shot? ”

When he came to Darum's side without looking back, he glanced at Lily and the others, but saw them laughing and talking like friends, magical......

"Hi bad boy. Both Darum and Parreira laughed.

"Say, what lens are you asking me for?" Ye Wei looked at them in confusion.
