After dinner, the two drove to Mulholland Drive, planning to chat and stroll until midnight.
Mulholland Drive is in the mountains. There are various high-end communities and townhouses on the roadside, and there are a few schools here and there. The mountain road is very dark at night, and there are few lights. You must drive slowly to ensure safety. There are not many night views.
Can be enjoyed.
Naomi parked the car on the side of the road and looked down at the brightly lit Los Angeles with Yang Jian from the observation deck on the way.
The whole city was like a flowing flame, winding into the distance. Looking from a distance, she had a vague illusion that she was a soul that was born out of the world, quietly looking at the noisy first half of her life.
Yang Jian felt like he was in a movie, and the scenery in front of him looked more and more like the opening scene of "Mulholland Drive."
The second female lead suffered amnesia after a car crash. Was it filmed here? Naomi happened to park her car here. There is a kind of arrangement called fate, which is God's will.
Naomi smiled and asked a series of questions: "Is this the place (date location) that Drake helped you choose? Is he really your fan? Why do I think he wants to trick you and let you come here?"
Are you here to practice courage?"
Yang Jian took a deep breath. Isn't that right? Driving the Wen family's double brake car in the middle of the night, accompanied by the heroine of the horror movie... If they had mobile phones, the person calling now might be Sadako.
"No, I chose this place. I really want to come and take a look." Yang Jian stretched.
"Why did you choose this place? Is there any special significance?" Naomi was very puzzled. "I have been in Los Angeles for a long time, and this is the first time I have come to this place at night."
Yang Jian went to the car first, took his coat and put it on Naomi, and started telling ghost stories. "You may not believe it, but I have dreamed about this place. Now that I am here, the scene in my dream has become clearer.
This is the place you see.”
"What did you dream about?" Naomi felt that this man was a bit naive and did not understand romance.
"I was in college at the time, and I was just a substitute in the school team. I was under great pressure not to be able to play, and I even didn't want to play basketball anymore. One day I dreamed that I was walking on this road. It was dark and quiet. There was a car.
I drove out on a quiet little road, and the driver was a blonde girl who was willing to take me down the mountain."
Naomi smiled and said: "You don't mean to say that you dreamed about me, do you? Men will not succeed in this way of striking up a conversation."
"I can't remember the face of the person in the dream. I only remember that she was blond and her hair was much shorter than yours now. Her short hair was a little curly. She said she had just attended a villa party and was going home," Yang Jian said.
Some fuzzy details.
"Then what?" Naomi thought to herself that it must not be me. How could I have the chance to attend the villa party? It would be better to be a waiter.
"Then we chatted in the car. I can't remember the specific content. She said that she was an actor who had just arrived in the United States. She encouraged me not to give up on my dreams and to be strong in the face of difficulties. As long as people are strong enough and persevere, the future will be certain.
It will succeed. I think you also need this kind of encouragement, maybe what you lack is just an opportunity." Yang Jian said with a smile.
Naomi stayed for a while, and when she looked up at Yang Jian again, her tears couldn't stop pouring out.
It's incredible that although it was the first time that the two of them met today, she felt like she had known Yang Jian for a long time. Now she found the reason, because their experiences were very similar. They were both foreigners who left their hometowns to work alone in the United States, and they all met Yang Jian.
Passed difficulties.
What Yang Jian said to her was exactly what she often said to herself. In the dead of night, when she suddenly woke up and felt uncomfortable, she would silently recite the word "strong".
The difference between them is that Yang Jian succeeded, but her dream has not come true yet.
Yang Jian's dream, she felt as if the two had a spiritual communication before they met. The words she said while half asleep and half awake were miraculously heard by another person. Today, they came to this place together again
.
Naomi began to believe that the woman Yang Jian dreamed of was herself. Perhaps this was a metaphysics that could only happen to Orientals?
Yang Jian naturally held Naomi in his arms and gave her support, his heart beating wildly. He knew that saying this would resonate, was it too much? He made the beautiful woman cry.
He came to this place prepared to say these words. He knew some of the words Naomi said in an interview in the parallel world after she finally became famous.
In 2000, Naomi, who had passed her thirties, was still unknown. There is a cold saying in Hollywood: for actresses in their 30s who have not yet become famous, the most suitable career is call girl.
The ups and downs of life taught Naomi nothing but to be strong and strong. Naomi said that when she was in the most difficult time, she liked to recite this in her heart. When she had nothing, she finally seized an opportunity and became famous.
.
The movie that made her famous is "Mulholland Drive". Now Naomi just feels that she can talk to Yang Jian very well and is like the same kind of person. In the future, when she sees the script of this movie, she will definitely think that the two met
It's fate.
The heroine played by Naomi also had a dream about Mulholland Drive in the movie, a nightmare. This was the starting point of Naomi's success. She was already 33 years old at that time.
Naomi's roles as Betty and Diane may be one of the most difficult film roles in film history, and she has received acclaim.
She not only has to show the innocence and confidence of a newcomer, but also performs the struggle in despair, and there is a play-within-a-play similar to an exam. She represents the different stages and different destinies of Hollywood actresses in different scenes. She
The superb acting skills in the film prove that not only famous actors can perform at Oscar level.
The reason why she acted so well is because she has experienced most of the things in the movie.
Naomi is not a star, she is struggling hard, but her best friend is a big star in Hollywood (Nicole Kidman). She is very much like Diane, but she just doesn’t want to kill Nicole. And Betty in the dream
Just like when she first came to Hollywood, she believed that she would succeed and was full of confidence in the future.
The two returned to the car and stayed for a while before Naomi became less excited.
"Am I ugly now?" Naomi said, wiping her face with a tissue.
"No, you cried beautifully. It's a pity that it wasn't filmed, otherwise you would have been selected for the Teen Choice Award for the best crying scene of the year." Yang Jian smiled.
"Are you the teenager I'm talking about? Do you know how old I am this year?" Naomi burst into laughter.
"Of course I know. I am always very accurate in guessing my age. There is a Chinese saying that 'a female in her junior year should hold a gold brick'. When looking for a girlfriend, you should find someone older than you. I guess you are older than me.
I’m 22 years old this year.”
Naomi was amused by him again. "You guessed it wrong. My birthday is at the end of September and I am already 27 years old."
"Then I think your mental age is only 22 years old. When you meet a stranger in a restaurant, you will lower your head and speak with a blushing face. Your shy look is heart-warming. A person who is so beautiful will be forgotten after just one glance.
My dear little sister, this is my impression of you."
Naomi's face turned red again when Yang Jian said it, and she covered her face with her hands.
It turns out that he has noticed my abnormality a long time ago. Is this love at first sight?
No, I'm 27 years old, how can I be intimidated by a child? If I like it, I like it. What's there to hide?
Naomi's heart skipped a beat and she took the initiative to kiss Yang Jian. Yang Jian was stunned for a moment and responded immediately. An Englishman and a Chinese had a deep French kiss.
Sometimes love is so unreasonable. Although they only knew each other for a day, they would smack each other's lips with their tongues if they disagreed. (I am Gu Amo, and what I am going to tell you today is a story about driving on Mulholland Drive.
)
I don't know how long it took, but both of them felt that it was a bit long and they had to go down the mountain first before considering continuing to drive.
Naomi asked: "Where are we going?"
"I want to go back to the hotel, do you want to go home?" Yang Jian asked tentatively.
"Don't you want to invite me back to the hotel?" Naomi risked her life and acted like a sister.
"Of course I hope you will go back to the hotel with me." Yang Jian swallowed.
Naomi smiled and started the car. Yang Jian now believed Drake's words. It turned out that he was really charming.
