Rebirth In Hollywood

Sitting quietly in the chair, Natalie opened the script. The first thing that caught her eye was a painting. The painting was a thin girl in a striped short-sleeved shirt. The dark brown bob covered a sad face. Under the eyes, there are still two lines of clear tears, and the silver-white sun-shaped pendant worn around the neck is particularly conspicuous.

Matilda? this is me? This girl is clearly what she looks like.

Natalie didn't ask, but continued to look at it. There were more than ten sketches in the back, most of which were drawn from her blueprint, and there were a few scenes where she and a tall man with a big nose looked at each other.

Although the level of painting is not very high, she can still identify the demeanor of the characters. I don't know why, after seeing these paintings, Natalie unconsciously remembered the "Lolita" that she had peeked at once. book.

Maybe it's just my delusion, that nasty guy shouldn't be so boring. Natalie shook her head and opened the text of the script.

Gangs? Killer? Action drama? She frowned, remembering that the name of the script was "Leon the Killer". It's normal for such a scene to appear, isn't it?

As an extremely smart girl, she read very fast, and finally saw Matilda appear. The miserable experience of this precocious girl instantly attracted her, especially the few lines in it, which were written very well.

Is life so painful? Or only in childhood? It was so painful!

It seems to have the level of "The Sixth Sense", yes, this guy didn't perfunctory her! Natalie pulled out a smile, she could write such a thoughtful work, but she had to move closer to commercialization, for fear that others would not smell the copper stench on him!

right! It's the smell of copper! She remembered that this word came from Chinese.

Natalie was in a good mood and felt that it should be a wise choice to play such a role, however, the good times did not last long, as the plot deepened, her brows twitched, especially when she saw Leon and Matilda's Emotional exchange, suddenly realized that Matilda is clearly a strong and alternative Lolita!

Before she knew it, her mouth rose and her cheeks bulged, and she began to browse through ten lines at a glance. The more she watched, the more conflicted her mood became. She has acted in many stage plays, and she has also read a large number of scripts, especially knowing Ryan. Afterwards, every script he wrote would send her an attachment by mail, with some insight.

The two roles of Leon and Matilda are very well created, especially Matilda, her character, her characteristics, are almost tailor-made for her, but why, the relationship between her and Leon... …

All right! She admits that without this relationship, the script would be mediocre at best, just the bastard Ryan Jenkins! Is this the script he kept preparing for himself?

Natalie scratched her face and closed the script, Ryan leaned over and asked, "Nate..."

"Ryan, what are you thinking? Did you peek at "Lolita"?" Natalie asked before the other party finished speaking.

"Ah... Lolita..." Ryan was really stopped by Natalie's question, and then he responded, "Nate, you even peeked at Lolita!"

"..." Natalie opened her mouth and quickly changed the subject, "Ryan, what the hell are you thinking? Oh my God, a love story between a twelve-year-old girl and a middle-aged killer, are you crazy?"

"Come on, Nat, it's just a fairy tale, a fairy tale about killers." Ryan waved his hand and started running the train, "You should be able to tell,

Between Matilda and Leon, it is a complex feeling of gratitude, fatherly love, friendship and admiration, not pure love. "

"I promise, in the eyes of the vast majority of people, they are an indecent love." How could Natalie easily believe his nonsense.

"Okay, let's be honest, Nat, do you want to play Matilda?" Ryan simply went straight to the point, all those ramblings were sidelines.

"This..." Natalie hesitated, to be honest, this role really attracted her.

"Let's put it this way, Nate, as long as you perform well, those guys will definitely put the title of acting genius on your head." Ryan simply used the temptation, and with his past achievements, it was somewhat convincing.

Acting genius? Natalie's heart is moved. She can't surpass this guy in her life in storytelling, writing, and music. The only thing that can beat him is performance.

Besides, after so many years of training, isn't what I've been waiting for an opportunity? Ryan is now her best friend. If the status of the two is too far apart, it will definitely affect future contacts. She doesn't want to lose her only friend.

It's just that she always felt weird, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. It seemed that Ryan had set a trap for her and let her drill into it willingly.

Ryan didn't say anything else. Natalie was obviously moved. When there was news from France, she would definitely make her own choice.

The two have known each other for more than two years, and they wrote two letters a week, and they hardly ever broke off. He didn't believe in the nonsense of the past life - my future is in Jerusalem, not Hollywood - no one knows better than him, What kind of ideals or... ambitions does this girl have, even her parents are no exception.

It was getting late, and after hanging up with Mrs. Shelley, Ryan and Natalie left the room and walked towards the hotel restaurant.

Mrs. Shelly knew that the two were each other's only friends of the same age, and since they hadn't seen each other for a long time, there must be a lot to say, but she told them not to quarrel, and to send Natalie back before ten o'clock.

Ryan could not help scratching his head after hearing something else from it. He also knew that Westerners are precocious, and it is not uncommon to have boyfriends and girlfriends at the beginning of eleven or twelve, and his relationship with Natalie is unusual. Mrs. Shelly It's normal to be worried.

It's just that he really doesn't have that kind of thinking now, at least he thinks so. Look at Natalie, thin and weak, almost skinny...

Well, it's still a cute Lolita, but he won't be so beastly, after all, this is his best friend.

The western restaurant of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel has a variety of meals, and the chef's level is also very high. Unfortunately, there are not many kinds of food suitable for Natalie. Many western foods are mostly added with animal fats, although vegetarians are very Common, but rarely seen as harsh as the Natalie family.

Fruit salad, vegan cheese bread, mashed potatoes, apple pie, this is Natalie's food, Ryan is sitting across from her, the staples in front of him are ten-ripe steak and roast lamb shank, he looks at Natalie Li's food has the urge to order a whole roast leg of lamb for her.

"Nate, why do you have to stick to a vegetarian diet?" Ryan felt that it was a crime to enjoy food and let his friends eat those bland food.

"Dad's request, he said, this is a Jewish tradition." Natalie shrugged indifferently.

Ryan rolled his eyes. He couldn't understand. Natalie was a very assertive girl. In most things, her father couldn't force her, such as signing an agent contract with Jinsley, why? But when it comes to food, she has become an obedient and good daughter?

"I don't think vegetarianism is bad either," Natalie added.

"Don't you think you are too thin?" Ryan pointed to her thin arm, "Our age is a critical period of development. Plant protein cannot completely replace animal protein, which will affect your growth. I I can guarantee that, Nat, if you only insist on being a vegetarian, when you grow up, at most, you will be as tall as I am now."

"Five-foot-five?" Natalie rolled her eyes. "I think that's a good height."

"Okay?" Ryan pouted, deliberately forked a delicious steak, and stuffed it into his mouth slowly, but unfortunately, Natalie turned a blind eye, "I tell you, Nat, I'm the least when I grow up. It'll be six feet tall, and you'll be a lot shorter when you're standing in front of me, don't cry."

"I can wear high heels." Natalie's reasons were endless. "Besides, Ryan, what do women do when they are so tall? Well... like Nicole, don't mind..."

Ryan made a gesture to continue, and Natalie continued, "Like Nicole, she's a little too tall. I think women, it's better to be no more than five feet seven inches."

He scratched his head a little, obviously trying to persuade her not to stick to vegetarianism, why did she take the initiative to talk about her height.

In fact, Ryan wants to tell her that if you continue to adhere to a strict vegetarianism, your height may not be a big problem, but in the future, your breasts will be B at most, or even A.

But can this be said? If he said it, Natalie's character would definitely put the plate of fruit salad on his face.

Ryan didn't give up and continued to persuade, "Nate, would you like some lamb, this is the authentic French roast leg of lamb."

After speaking, he cut off a piece and put it in his mouth, showing a somewhat intoxicated look.

"Really?" Natalie rolled her eyes back at him, "Ryan, I heard from a nutrition expert that people who eat too much meat will not only have rough skin, but also smell bad!"

"Smell?" Ryan narrowed his eyes.

"Really." Natalie continued, making a V-sign quietly under the table, "So, you should try to become a vegetarian!"

"Vegetarianism?" Ryan shook his head without thinking. Is there anything scarier than not being able to eat meat? He still wants to taste delicious food all over the world.

Even if Natalie is smart enough, she is still young. In the face of Ryan's eloquent tongue, and she has only adhered to strict vegetarianism for a few years, under the temptation of him even deceived, she is still small. After tasting some lamb shank, she didn't reject her expression. In exchange, Ryan also ate a lot of fruit salad and vegan bread.

After dinner, the two chatted for a while, and Ryan found an assistant and asked her to drive Natalie back.

Although Natalie took the lead over the topic at dinner, Ryan was still happy. Strict vegetarians are the most annoying thing. Now that there are gaps in the corners, there will always be a day to pry, right?

...Sorry, I played too much yesterday, it's almost 1 o'clock when I get home, I will make up for the chapter I owe today, thank you for your support~~
