The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1415 Stay tuned
"At the time, I was hesitating. I wasn't sure if I should go into the meeting room because Anson and Lucas were still having a deep conversation inside. Although I was very curious about the secrets between them, I knew this was Hollywood and some secrets were better left unknown."

"But judging from the director's expression, things should be fine now. I should go in and take over the work and prepare for the subsequent filming."

"After all, because of Anson, we delayed the filming schedule again. Yes, the one thousand and first time."

"Just as I was hesitating, I looked up and saw Anson coming towards me. He locked onto my position and walked towards me quickly."

"'Ah, Cody!'"

Cody was telling a story, but when he said this, there was a burst of boos all around. No one believed it at all, and one by one they gave Cody the thumbs up.

"Nonsense!"

"How is it possible! How can Hollywood actors remember our names?"

"I know, I know. Those talk shows often say that the actors remember, but it's just PR for the show effect. No one takes it seriously."

"Cody, wake up and stop dreaming."

“The credibility of the story is greatly compromised.”

"Haha, your fabricated story has exposed your true colors!"

"Pfft! Cody, please don't talk nonsense in front of professionals, because we all know what's going on."

There was a lot of hustle and bustle, chatter and booing.

In front of these Hollywood veterans, Cody's "lies" seemed to be exposed.

However, the person involved looked aggrieved, with the breath stuck in his throat and he was unable to defend himself.

"Really, everything I said is true."

"Anson came rushing out of the interview room and saw me, and he yelled my name, 'Ah, Cody!'"

However, no one believed it.

Cody was extremely depressed. He looked up at the sky and spread out his hands. He was extremely depressed and no one believed him if he told the truth.

"Next time you enter Anson's set, see for yourself. I lied and I was a puppy. He really called my name, and more than once during the set."

Unfortunately, no one believed it and everyone looked perfunctory.

"Okay, okay, let's take that as an example. So, what happened next? Did the filming go smoothly? Anson spent so much time studying the role, and he didn't mess it up in the end? That would be very embarrassing."

Cody sighed in silence. What was that perfunctory attitude? What did he mean by "just treat it as it is"? This tone of coaxing a child was really weird.

But in the end, Cody still controlled himself. Time will tell. All those prejudices, discriminations and arrogance will be exposed.

Cody believed Anson.

In fact, Cody recalled the embarrassment he experienced on his first day on the crew and felt a little excited. He thought that these guys would repeat the same mistake and embarrass themselves in front of Anson in the future. Then he would laugh at these poor guys to his heart's content. He couldn't help but feel a little excited.

So, Cody didn't continue to defend himself.

"Anson called me because he needed to take a shower and change clothes to prepare for the performance."

"Anson's original words were that although Johnny was nervous, he had been looking forward to this day for a long time, and he was excited and happy. Moreover, Johnny finally forgave himself and found a new mission through music. He went to Folsom Prison with enthusiasm."

"The reason why this live performance at Folsom Prison will go down in history is not only because of the prison environment, but what is really important is Johnny's belief and state, so he needs to show the posture of emerging from a cocoon and becoming a butterfly."

"Can you believe it? At that time, to be precise, on that day, Anson really emerged from his cocoon and became a butterfly."

“That concert…”

As he spoke, Cody's mind once again recalled the scenes shot at Folsom Prison that day. The emotions and shock he felt surged back, and he couldn't help but immerse himself in them.

The audience couldn't help but nudge Cody with their elbows, "Hey, don't just savor it by yourself, speak it out so that everyone can hear it." "Yeah, yeah, yeah, how is it? How does it compare to your performance at the Grammy Awards?"

"Honestly, the Grammys can't be surpassed."

"Apart from anything else, Anson's live performance was truly astounding, and the Grammys simply blew my mind apart."

Bustling and lively.

Cody let out a long breath, "How should I describe it?"

"I just thought maybe that was Anson finding a perfect fit between the music of Johnny Cash and Anson Wood, and at some points, I felt it was Johnny Cash, but at some points, the image of Anson Wood and Johnny Cash merged perfectly."

"I...I don't know how to describe it."

“But Folsom Prison was transformed into a concert venue, and filming it became a joy, as if we were shooting a concert documentary.”

"That feeling... wow, I don't know how to describe it. It's not just shocking, nor is it just touching. It's as if we are melting into the notes."

"All in all, we only took three hours to complete the originally planned two-day shoot, and finished the filming ahead of schedule."

The conversation ended here in an abrupt turn that caught everyone off guard.

Everyone in the small room couldn't believe their ears. They looked at Cody and protested and complained.

"That's it?"

"What the hell, then? What about the climax? What about Anson's performance and the crew's filming? This latter part is the focus of the story, right?"

With a crackling sound, Cody became the target of everyone's attack, and arrows, stones and shells all flew towards him.

Cody seemed remarkably calm.

Shrugging slightly, Cody said, "Yes, that's the point."

"But since this is the point, you should wait until the movie is released to confirm it in person. This is the charm of the movie, don't you think?"

cut!
Shhh!
Roll on, roll on, swearing and complaining.

Complaints, boos, heckles, attacks, it all exploded, the party finally began to resemble a party and became noisy again.

This scene made Cody's smile slightly rise, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.

The circle surrounding Cody dispersed, and the turbid and hot air became fresh again. Although they were curious, they were all Hollywood practitioners, shooting movies, watching movies, and making movies. Movies had evolved into a job, and their appeal was greatly reduced.

So, when Cody kept it a secret, they all stopped buying it.

In the end, only two or three good friends were left scattered around.

Someone noticed the look on Cody's face and kicked him in the calf, "Are you serious? Is the movie worth looking forward to?"

Cody didn't hesitate, "Of course."

"Wow." He couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that this filming work really made you look at Anson in a new light."

Cody, "Actions speak louder than words."

Could it be that... "Walking with the Song" is really worth looking forward to?

Considering the heated discussions throughout Hollywood after the film project was indeed confirmed, whether it was the partnership between Anson and Reese, or the combination of Mangold and Kitcher, plus the fact that the script has been circulating in Hollywood for more than a decade, the prospects of this film are really bleak.

But now, if we cut a corner and peek from Cody's perspective, could "Sing Along" have made a comeback?
