Rebirth In Hollywood

"The Statue of Liberty is a gift from France to the United States to commemorate the American-French alliance during the American Revolutionary War. It was designed and completed by the famous French sculptor Bartodi in ten years. It is a symbol of free will..."

Standing at the top of the interior of the Statue of Liberty, Nicole talked eloquently, like a beautiful female tour guide.

It has been two days since we came to the Big Apple. Ryan and Nicole have visited many famous attractions, watched colorful neon advertisements in Times Square, shopped at boutiques on Fifth Avenue, went to watch plays on Broadway, and went to Central Park to experience Forest in the city.

After crossing the Hudson Estuary, the two returned all the way back to Manhattan. Anyway, they came out to relax and have fun. They didn't have a clear plan or goal. They basically went where they went, and didn't care about repeating the route.

"Ryan, why did you stop?" Nicole felt her hands sink, and then she realized that the boy holding her hand suddenly stood there, "The Twin Towers are one of the tallest buildings in the world, on the top floor The sightseeing room can have a panoramic view of half of New York, don't you want to go?"

"Nicole, let's not go, I don't like the twin towers."

Although it's only 1990, the shadow of his past life is lingering. If Ryan is killed, he will not enter the World Trade Center. "Let's go to the Empire State Building."

"OK then."

The Empire State Building is located on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan. It was built in 1930. It is also known as the symbol of the Big Apple with the Statue of Liberty at the mouth of the Hudson River, especially the lights at the top, which are world-famous.

After arriving at the viewing platform on the 86th floor, Ryan looked into the distance, which was the direction of Long Island.

"What are you thinking about?" Nicole asked, seeing that he was a little lost.

"Nothing?" Ryan came back to his senses, thinking of the Empire State Building-related script he had not yet finished, "Nicole, I heard from Pat that a producer invited you?"

"Yeah." Nicole nodded.

Unlike the previous life, "Across the Horizon" landed in the United States earlier. What's more interesting is that it was Miramax who introduced the film to North America. As the film entered the theater, Nicole gradually became more and more popular in Hollywood. With some fame, some producers began to send out invitations.

"Unfortunately, they are all vase characters." With the experience of "The Sixth Sense", Nicole's eyes have become more critical.

"I have prepared the next script for you." With the relationship between the two, there is nothing to say.

"Really? Why don't I know?" Nicole raised her eyebrows, "What?"

"It's related to the Empire State Building. It's still too early to finish." The boy thought for a while, and then said, "I'll give you a piece of advice. It's best not to take a film appointment before the release of The Sixth Sense."

"why?"

"Because after "The Sixth Sense", your worth will definitely rise."

"You little brat, are you so confident?" Nicole was noncommittal, stroking his wind-ruffled hair, "As for the script, let me see it, if it doesn't suit my heart, I won't accept it. ."

"At home in Los Angeles, you can find it yourself when you go back." The boy smiled. Unless he invited Nicole, Nicole would not flip through the manuscripts he wrote, which was considered to respect his privacy.

Not far from Manhattan, it is also a famous holiday destination. Long Island has attracted many people to settle here, especially after World War II, a large number of middle-class and rich Jewish people,

They were also relocated, many of them from Jerusalem.

After walking around in Winnett Park, Ryan simply dragged Nicole into the dessert shop at the entrance of the park. It was probably because of the weekend. There were many people in the shop, most of them were children accompanied by their parents. There was a table in the lower corner, and after ordering two Black Forest cakes and two glasses of orange juice, Ryan and the others sat at the table.

"It tastes okay, but it's too sweet." These desserts are often the natural enemies of beauty-loving women. Nicole put down her fork after just a few bites.

"No! No! No! I want vegan!" A crisp girl's voice came from the direction of the counter, "Thank you, give me another glass of hot orange juice!"

Carrying a small tray, the girl turned her head to look around the store, and finally walked towards Ryan's table.

"May I sit here?" the girl asked very politely, showing excellent upbringing.

Ryan had been talking to Nicole in a low voice until he realized that the girl was coming. He turned his head, and the moment he saw the girl, his eyes froze. However, he quickly lowered his eyes to hide his inner feelings. fluctuating emotions.

"Of course!" Ryan also politely replied, no one could see the change in his mood. I have to say that the role-playing in the past ten years has made the boy's face unknowingly change. A veil has been put on.

"Thank you!" The girl sat beside him.

Ryan glanced at her calmly from the corner of his eye, with dark brown medium-length hair that was slightly curled, and a goose-egg-shaped face with an angular face, which was not very cute, and had a bit of baby fat. Her brown eyes shone with wisdom, and the small mole on her cheek not only did not harm her appearance, but even added to her temperament.

Although she looked much younger than she had imagined, she was his favorite female star after all, and it was just an instant that he was sure that she should be her.

"Hello, I'm Ryan Jenkins!" The boy introduced himself very calmly.

"Hello!" The girl nodded and said lightly, "Natalie Hirschler."

The boy didn't say anything, and he didn't do anything. He could see that the girl was slightly wary. If the materials he had read were not too outrageous, the girl's precocious maturity and wisdom were far beyond her age. and appearance.

After quietly eating the cake, Ryan said lightly to the girl beside him before leaving, "Miss Natalie, it's nice to meet you, then...bye!"

"Strange boy!" Looking at the boy and girl walking out of the store, Natalie shook her head and continued to taste her own food.

About half an hour later, Natalie walked out of the dessert shop and rode her little bicycle towards the house. Not long after their family moved to Long Island, as a Jewish girl born in Jerusalem, her father, a conservative doctor, wanted her recently. To develop a strict vegetarian habit, this habit is neither good nor bad. Since it is a family requirement, she can only follow it as usual.

Winnett Park was not far from her home, but when she turned to the street in front of her home, an accident happened.

Maybe only God knows what's going on. When turning a corner, a child she knew called her from behind, Natalie turned her head in a ghostly way, and then the bicycle hit a boy on the side of the road, the unfortunate one The boy was knocked to the ground directly by her.

"Damn it!" Ryan cursed in a low voice. This was really a disaster. He just stood here with his head down and waited for Nicole who went to the convenience store. A daredevil even hit him with a bicycle. You know, there are four cars on this road. Parallel is no problem.

"I'm sorry, are you not hurt?"

Hearing that the voice still seemed to be a girl, Ryan said angrily, "Not dead, just a broken leg."

"Ah~"

Hey~ Why does the voice sound familiar? The boy raised his head, his eyes widened in amazement.

"It's you?"

As if they were in a relationship, the two spoke in unison.

"Your leg is broken?" Natalie asked timidly.

Ryan sighed, the collision seemed to be in vain, and rolled his eyes, "Just kidding."

Natalie curled her lips without a trace, but she did something wrong after all, so she had to apologize again, "You are Ryan Jenkins, right? I'm very sorry, I was too careless."

"Ryan, what's the matter?" After leaving the convenience store, Niki saw the boy sitting on the ground with a tilted bicycle beside him, and hurried over.

"Nate, what happened?"

A Ford also stopped on the side of the road at this time, and a middle-aged couple got out of the car and walked over.

It was as absurd as it was filming a movie. All the support teams from both sides arrived in an instant, and Natalie didn't shirk the blame and quickly explained what happened.

The boy was not injured. With his body that was scrambling in the orphanage, how could he be so delicate, but Natalie's parents still invited him and Nicole to go to the house not far ahead so that they could check carefully. , because Natalie's father was a doctor.

"Mr. Avner, it's just a little scratch." Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Ryan looked at his swollen knees and didn't care.

"I'm sorry, Ryan, I was too rash." Under her father's stern eyes, Natalie had to apologize again.

"It's okay. Nat, can I call you that? Thank you." The boy said with a smile, "Mr. Avner, don't blame Nat, I'm also responsible for this."

Nicole sat next to the boy and gently rubbed his knees for him. Seeing that there was no problem, he helped him put down the rolled up trouser legs. After all, it was just an accident, and Ryan was not injured. The perpetrator was still a The younger girl, she can't say anything.

"Jerusalem, so you were born in Israel?"

Just when Nicole and the Hushler couple chatted a few words, Ryan was about to get Natalie's old bottom out. Yes, she is indeed smart and precocious, but she is still too tender for boys.

"Yeah, we just moved to New York not long ago." Natalie looked at the boy's face carefully as she spoke, "Ryan, are you Jewish too? I think you have some Jewish features in your appearance. ."

She is indeed a smart girl! Ryan sighed in his heart.

To be honest, he didn't know what blood he was, but according to Dean Katie's inference from his appearance, he should have a part of Nordic blood, and the appearance between his eyebrows had some Jewish features.

Anyway, in the end, the boy made a conclusion by himself, that is, a mixed-race kid can't be a mixed-race kid.
