Chapter 326： My daughter has a private meeting with you!

"Can't I stay here for a while?" Anne Hathaway hesitated for a moment, and then said bravely.

"I'm very sorry." Zhang Dongcheng shook his head and explained: "I'm about to feel that the crew is going to shoot a movie, and after I leave this time, I probably won't be back for a few days."

"Oh. All right!" Annie gritted her teeth and said, "Mr. Smith, can you send me to downtown Los Angeles?"

"Of course!" Zhang Dongcheng readily agreed.

After changing Anne Hathaway's clothes, Zhang Dongcheng drove her towards Los Angeles.

On the way, Zhang Dongcheng asked curiously: "Didn't your friend leave Los Angeles? What are you doing in Los Angeles now?"

"Oh, that's right!" Anne Hathaway explained. Only then did Zhang Dongcheng understand.

What happened was very simple. A group of children took advantage of the vacation to visit Hollywood, a movie mecca in Los Angeles. As a result, Anne Hathaway drank too much because no one was in charge.

As for how she ran into Zhang Dongcheng, Anne Hathaway herself couldn't explain it clearly. At that time, she was so drunk that she didn't even know who she was.

The reason why she went to Los Angeles was just to wait for her family to come and pick her up.

Calculating the time, Zhang Dongcheng suddenly realized that if she was really asked to stay in Los Angeles and wait alone, she would have to wait at least a whole day.

After all, Zhang Dongcheng had already heard the call just now, and her parents would not be able to come over until the afternoon.

Thinking of letting such a young girl stay in Los Angeles, waiting for her parents to come over alone, Zhang Dongcheng suggested a little bit unbearably: "If you don't mind, you can go to the set with me, how about it?"

"Going to the set?" Anne Hathaway's eyes lit up immediately, and for a split second, Zhang Dongcheng felt as if he saw little stars twinkling in her eyes.

But soon, Anne Hathaway became awkward again. "Director Smith, will this bother you too much?"

"It doesn't matter, you have no place to go anyway." Zhang Dongcheng looked at Anne Hathaway and said, "I think you must have no money for lunch now, right?"

This isn't Zhang Dongcheng's aimless aim. Logically speaking, Anne Hathaway is already sixteen years old, so she shouldn't even need her parents to come and pick her up when she goes home, right?

In addition, after she jumped out of the window, Zhang Dongcheng did not notice that she was carrying a wallet when he rescued her. This is enough to show that this girl is penniless now, and has nothing but a suit of clothes.

"Yes... yes!" As a strong girl, after being exposed by Zhang Dongcheng, Annie was very embarrassed and nodded with a blushing face.

"Then just go to the set with me, and you can learn a lot by the way." Zhang Dongcheng said, pretending to glance at Annie inadvertently, and said: "You look very good, if you have ideas, you can wait until you graduate Now, you can try to be an actor!"

"Actor? Me?" Anne suddenly chuckled.

She is a girl who likes acting very much. When she was in high school, she often honed her acting skills on the campus stage and the famous White House Theater, and won the "Rising Star Award" once current students).

As the leading director in Hollywood, Zhang Dongcheng is so optimistic about her, which really makes her very excited.

"That's right!" Zhang Dongcheng was distracted while chatting with Annie while driving, and said, "You look very good, although I haven't seen your performance, but I think you can ask Audrey Hepburn and Zhu Learn from Di Garland. Imitate their experience, I think you are very suitable for this acting style, um, I like you!"

Hearing that Zhang Dongcheng compared himself with Audrey Hepburn and Judy Garland, Annie almost cheered excitedly.

It goes without saying who Audrey Hepburn is. The movie Roman Holiday let people all over the world know this beautiful and unique woman.

I Judy Garland, formerly known as Francis Ethel Gum; was born on June 10, 1922 and died on June 22, 1969. She is an American actress and singer.

During her 45-year singing career, Garland has become an international star for musical theater roles and musical stage performances.

For her versatility, she has been awarded an Academy Award for Best Teen Actor, a Golden Globe, a Cecil B. DeMille Award, a Grammy and a Tony Award. Her vocal range is contralto. In 1999, she was selected by the American Film Institute as the 8th greatest actress of the century. Died on June 22, 1969 at his residence in Chelsea, London, England.

Comparing these two strange women in the film industry with Anne Hathaway instantly made Anne feel elated. For a moment, I felt that Zhang Dongcheng was my confidant in life.

Suppressing the excitement in her heart, Annie smiled and said politely: "Thank you for your compliment, Director Smith!"

"No! This is not a compliment, Miss Anne. I really think you are very talented!" Zhang Dongcheng shook his head and explained.

Knowing the future of Anne Hathaway very well, Zhang Dongcheng did not mean any compliment when he said this.

Even though Anne Hathaway was only sixteen years old, she still felt the sincerity in Zhang Dongcheng's words. This moved her even more.

While speaking, the car finally came to the door of a supermarket full of the style of thirty years ago.

What is going to be filmed now is the role of Brad Pitt. He takes several children and wants to hand them over to his wife to take care of them. I need to go to the farm to take care of the cows that are about to give birth.

The person who plays Brad Pitt's wife is his current girlfriend, Jennifer Aniston.

Before this, Zhang Dongcheng was not optimistic about Jennifer Aniston. Even if he agreed to audition for her, it was because of Brad Pitt. Relatively speaking, Zhang Dongcheng felt that Jennifer was more suitable for Lullyn Newsom.

That is the role played by Jennifer, Jack's wife played by Orlando.

However, during the audition, Zhang Dongcheng discovered that Jennifer does indeed have the maternal temperament of the role of Alma, who is a husband and a child. Of course, with her playing Alma, who is in a relationship with Brad Pitt, the love that is performed is more realistic. Besides, there are many intimate scenes in the movie Brokeback Mountain.

Zhang Dongcheng slightly adjusted Alma's character. I gave it to Jennifer to play it.

When Zhang Dongcheng felt outside the supermarket, the members of the crew were gathering in twos and threes, smoking and chatting boredly.

"Oh! I'm very sorry, everyone, I was delayed due to a little personal matter!" Zhang Dongcheng apologized immediately after getting off the car.

This has nothing to do with the director's consolation, but from the perspective of time, since I was late, I should apologize.

"It's okay, Director Smith!" Originally, there was no role in Orlando today, but for some unknown reason, he still came to the crew.

Zhang Dongcheng glanced at Orlando curiously, and said, "Orlando, shouldn't you rest?"

Orlando suddenly became nervous, and explained: "Director Smith, I'm very sorry for that, I think..."

Seeing Orlando's evasive behavior, Zhang Dongcheng became more and more confused. He always felt that Orlando seemed to be hiding something from him.

However, this may also be Orlando's private matter. Since the other party didn't want to talk about it, Zhang Dongcheng didn't ask, and said, "Okay, Orlando, since you want to come, you can come together!"

"Hey, Smith!" Brad Pitt moved closer to Zhang Dongcheng, bumped Zhang Dongcheng with his shoulder, winked in Anne Hathaway's direction and said, "You won't be exhausted because of that girl last night." right?"

Seeing the smirk on Brad Pitt's face, Zhang Dongcheng suddenly got a black line in his head, and said: "Peter, your mind is too unhealthy, that lady is only sixteen years old, and she is still a student!"

"What's wrong with being sixteen?" Brad Pitt said with a face of course: "My first date was only fifteen years old! I was also fifteen years old at that time!"

As the bond with Brad Pitt deepened, Zhang Dongcheng felt his shamelessness more and more.

Shaking his head, Zhang Dongcheng simply didn't bother to pay attention to him. He said to the staff of the film crew: "Okay, everyone, I was delayed for a little time today because of me, so next, we have to pay more attention! Next, we will first shoot the exterior shots of Ennis driving to the outside of the supermarket."

This shot is very simple, it is a long shot of Brad Pitt driving to the door of the supermarket.

Even Brad Pitt didn't show up during the period, even if a woman with long hair fluttering was used as his substitute, no one would be discovered.

This shot was over in one pass, and then Zhang Dongcheng began to greet the crew members and went indoors to set up equipment.

After everything was ready, Brad Pitt held a child in his arms, followed by a little girl. Ready to walk around the corner.

"Action!" Seeing that everyone was ready, Zhang Dongcheng waved his hand. The camera began to shoot.

Brad Pitt came in stooping, picked up the little girl at his feet, walked quickly to the checkout counter, and asked the person in charge of the supermarket, "Hi, Munro! Is Alma there?"

"Yes! She's in the seasoning section! It's over there!" The cashier was played by an unknown little actor. Holding the ledger in one hand, he pointed Brad Pitt in the direction of the seasoning section.

"What?" Brad Pitt asked suspiciously as he walked.

"Oh! There's ketchup!" Munro reminded again.

"Thank you!" Brad Pitt thanked, and quickly came to Jennifer.

"OK! It's over, this shot is great!" Zhang Dongcheng immediately asked the crew to prepare again and start shooting the next shot.

While everyone was busy, Zhang Dongcheng turned around and asked Anne Hathaway beside him, "How is it? How do you feel?"

"It's okay!" Annie nodded and said, "It's not what I imagined!"

"Oh?" Zhang Dongcheng became curious and asked, "Then what do you imagine the scene of filming would look like?"

Annie stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "I heard that the directors of the crew are very fierce. They are very powerful. Once the performance is not good, he will scold people. You don't seem to be like this?"

"I am a special case!" Speaking of this, Zhang Dongcheng is very proud. From the beginning of filming as the sound engineer, Zhang Dongcheng has never been in a hurry with the actors in the crew.

Even if their performance is poor, Zhang Dongcheng will patiently teach and help them tell the show. Never relying on the identity of the director to yell at the actors.

Annie's eyes were somewhat curious, and after taking a look at Zhang Dongcheng, she said: "You are indeed different from other directors, but you are gentle, don't you fear that the crew are not afraid of you? What if they don't do what you say?" What should I do?"

Zhang Dongcheng shook his head with a smile, and explained: "It's very simple. If they make a mistake, I will tell them and let them correct it."

"What will you do if they don't listen to you?" Annie was quite conscious of asking the truth.

Her question made Zhang Dongcheng stunned. Because so far, Zhang Dongcheng has never encountered such a situation.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Dongcheng shook his head and said, "No, the situation you mentioned will never happen!"

"What if?" Annie continued to ask persistently.

"What if?" Zhang Dongcheng chuckled and said, "If someone is so determined to fight against me, then I can only let him leave the crew!"

"Oh!" Annie nodded knowingly.

This girl is really capable of breaking the casserole and asking the end.

While speaking, the preparations for the next set of shots have also been completed.

Brad Pitt held the two children again, and said to Zhang Dongcheng: "Smith, you can start!"

"OK! Then everyone get ready. Action!" Zhang Dongcheng ordered, and the movie continued to shoot.

Jennifer was holding a notebook in her hand. When she saw Brad Pitt coming with two children in her arms, she immediately smiled. Zhang Dongcheng couldn't help but nodded slightly with that kind of warmth.

It was indeed right to choose Jennifer. Although Zhang Dongcheng made some changes to the script because of her, Jennifer's performance seemed extremely real.

Anne looked curiously at everything in the crew. Even if there is a question, I wait until Zhang Dongcheng's filming break to ask questions. At first glance, it gave people a feeling that Zhang Dongcheng seemed to be her teacher, teaching her.

"OK! Come here first this morning. Everyone, get ready for dinner!" After more than an hour of filming, this scene in the supermarket is finally over.

Lunch is a custom-made box lunch. However, when the crew's lunch box was delivered, something happened that made Zhang Dongcheng extremely embarrassed.

Because of being late this time, after Zhang Dongcheng arrived at the crew, he was busy with shooting the camera, and even forgot about Anne Hathaway.

There is a certain amount of box lunches for the crew. That is to say, Zhang Dongcheng originally planned to take Anne Hathaway to have a meal with the crew, but now Anne's food is gone!

Rao Zhang Dongcheng was also a little embarrassed at the moment, and explained: "Annie, you eat first!"

While talking, Zhang Dongcheng pushed his lunch box to her.

Of course Annie is not stupid, so she can see Zhang Dongcheng's embarrassment. Hearing this, he shook his head and said, "Thank you, Director Smith. It's better for you to eat, you will continue to shoot movies in the afternoon!"

"I said Smith, it's just a box of lunch, can't you be so sincere?" Brad Pitt on the side almost laughed when he heard the conversation between Zhang Dongcheng and Annie, and said: "There is a family not far away. A restaurant that is open, I think you can take this Miss Anne there!"

While speaking, Brad Pitt pointed towards the location of the restaurant.

Looking in the direction of Brad Pitt's finger, it was a fast food restaurant.

Zhang Dongcheng smiled sarcastically, and said, "Okay, then I'll take Annie to the fast food, and you can stay here and eat your lunch box!"

"Prefer **** over friends!" Brad Pitt cursed with a smile.

"Annie, let's go, I'll take you to eat fast food!" Zhang Dongcheng put down the lunch box and said to Annie.

"This...isn't that good?" Annie was obviously moved, but she still hesitated.

"You helped me just now, so just treat it as my treat for you, can you?" Zhang Dongcheng stared at Annie's delicate face with burning eyes and said.

Zhang Dongcheng's so-called help is completely nonsense.

However, with this step, Anne Hathaway did not refuse this time, and obediently ate a fast food with Zhang Dongcheng.

After lunch, after a half-hour break, the crew started filming again. But at this moment, Zhang Dongcheng's phone rang suddenly.

"Sorry, everyone, I'll answer the phone first!" Looking at the strange number displayed on the phone, Zhang Dongcheng came to the corner in confusion and connected it.

"Hello? Hello, who are you?" After the call was connected, Zhang Dongcheng asked suspiciously.

The other side of the phone became silent for a moment, and after three seconds, a woman's dignified voice came, "Hello, who are you?"

Zhang Dongcheng was stunned. Is there such a kind of calling without introducing your identity, but asking who the other party is?

Shaking his head, Zhang Dongcheng took the call for granted as a harassing call from someone who was free to do something. After he hung up immediately, he walked towards the crew again.

Before Zhang Dongcheng returned to the set, his cell phone rang again.

Seeing that the number displayed on the phone was still the same as before, Zhang Dongcheng frowned and connected. Said: "My friend, I don't know who you are, but please don't make such harassing calls all the time, can you?"

"Who are you? Where is my daughter?" On the phone, it was still the woman's voice.

"Your daughter? How do I know?" Zhang Dongcheng angrily contradicted the other party, and said, "I think you must have dialed the wrong number. You need to re-check whether the number you broadcast is correct!"

"I'm Kate McGolly!" The woman on the phone seemed to be afraid that Zhang Dongcheng would hang up again, and hurriedly said, "My daughter is Anne Hathaway, and she called me from this number this morning. Telephone!"

Zhang Dongcheng was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Are you Anne's mother? Don't you come to Los Angeles in the afternoon?"

This sentence immediately made Kate McGolly furious. Her daughter secretly had a private meeting with a man without telling them?

"Sir, could I trouble you to let Anne answer the phone first?" Kate McGolly asked suppressing the anger in her heart.

"Of course. I'm very sorry. I didn't know you were Anne's mother just now, Ms. Kate!" After Zhang Dongcheng explained, he found Anne Hathaway who was watching the fun in the crew, handed her the phone, and said: "Your mother is calling."

"What?" Annie's eyes widened suddenly, obviously surprised.

As for what Anne Hathaway talked about with her mother, Zhang Dongcheng didn't know. He only knew that when Anne Hathaway came back, her face was dark. Obviously in a bad mood.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Dongcheng asked curiously.

"No... nothing!" Annie forced a smile. shook his head.

"Mr. Smith, can I trouble you again, I know it's rude. But..." Annie explained: "My parents came to Los Angeles early. After you answered the phone just now, they thought I was not good at anything. People get mixed up, I explained who you are, but they don't believe it at all, so I want you to prove it for me. Can you?"

Zhang Dongcheng laughed wryly when he heard the words. What are you afraid of? Who would have thought that Anne Hathaway's parents would come to Los Angeles ahead of schedule?

The filming location is quite far from Los Angeles, so Zhang Dongcheng had no choice but to send her back in person. Simply put, the rest of the scene is relatively simple, and it is enough for Jack to handle it.

After explaining the crew's affairs, under Brad Pitt's teasing eyes, Zhang Dongcheng took Anne Hathaway away.

In Los Angeles, in a cafe on Hollywood Boulevard, Zhang Dongcheng finally met Anne Hathaway's parents.

Her father, Gerald, is a lawyer and looks gentle. Although he is nearly forty years old, he is still tall. It is conceivable that he must have been a handsome guy when he was young.

And Anne Hathaway's mother, Kate McGolly, is also good, a singer and actress. Although not very famous, she is also very beautiful, and when she sits with her father, she looks very good.

"Director Smith, these are my parents." Anne Hathaway introduced to both parties. He obediently sat on the side, apparently with a strict family education.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Smith, I thought Anne was hanging out with those dubious people, you know, she is at the age of rebellion now! So we have to strengthen our care for her!" Kate Mai Gao Li is a very kind woman, she doesn't seem to be so mean on the phone.

Of course, this is also because she now believes in Zhang Dongcheng's identity. If Zhang Dongcheng is really a dubious person, Kate McGolly's attitude will definitely take a 180-degree turn.

Without that mother, she would want her daughter to hang out with dubious people. Especially a family like Kate McGolly and the others.
