American fame and fortune

William Morris, Office Lobby.

Adrian and Tony walked through the partition office area and came to the glass partition office where agent John was.

The latter has a red and swollen nose and a Band-Aid, which looks a little funny.

In the office, the voice of a phone call came faintly.

Adrian knocked on the door, pushed it open and entered.

John, who was nearly 40 years old, hung up the phone with a serious face: "You guys came just in time, the crew has news."

Adrian got rid of his biggest competitor yesterday, with full confidence: "We won?"

John said: "The crew informed you that the character you got is called Dalton, not Nick Jones."

Adrian said: "I auditioned for Nick Jones! Who is Dalton?"

Tony asked, "Did they make a mistake?"

John carefully checked the role list sent by the crew, and said, "A marginal supporting role, Nick Jones' follower."

Adrian didn’t understand: “Why?”

"The crew said you didn't pass the audition, but they think you have good acting skills." John specifically asked, "They say you are more suitable for Dalton."

Adrian crossed his hips and circled back and forth, unable to figure out what the problem was.

Tony touched the clown's nose: "What I did, is it for nothing?"

Adrian didn't get angry, he pulled out his chair and sat down, and asked, "Who is the winner?"

John said, "Martin Davis."

"Fake!" Adrian swears.

Tony was puzzled: "Why him? His qualifications, acting skills, connections, which one can compare with Adrian? He has been in Los Angeles for less than two months!"

Adrian thought of a possibility: "Susan Levine slept with him?"

"It doesn't make any sense to say these now." John has experienced many failures and successes: "The reality is that we have done a lot and still lost. The audition is to strive for the greatest possibility of winning, but no one can guarantee 100% success."

He waited for a while before asking Adrian: "Do you accept this role?"

Adrian didn't answer directly: "A month ago, I was the leading actor in the crew of "Entourage", and he was just a small supporting role. Now he is going to be the leading actor in "House of Wax Museum", and I want to be his follower. How do you let me accept it?"

John knows that people have psychological gaps, but some things must be accepted as soon as possible: "You should take this role, Adrian, and you should take a long-term view instead of worrying about the gains and losses of a role."

He raised his hand to stop Adrian from objecting, and said in detail: "We finally got into a relationship with Susan through Downey's door. If you refuse, this relationship will definitely be broken. Susan is only thirty years old, and the future must be Catherine-" For a character like Kennedy, what you should consider now is how to establish a good personal relationship with Susan through this role."

Adrian rubbed his chin vigorously, and asked after a while: "Where is Tony? Can the crew provide him with a salary?"

John shook his head: "Impossible, the crew has only four personal assistants, and the filming location is Queensland, Australia."

Tony took the initiative and said, "I'm not going."

Adrian agreed: "Okay, I accept this role and help me get better conditions."

John said, "I'll do my best."

In the partition of the office hall, the moment Thomas received the notification from the crew, he jumped up from his chair, so excited that he wanted to roar a few times.

He's been in charge of quite a few clients, but this is the first role that really matters.

Even if it's actually a supporting actor.

Working overtime like a donkey, why? Isn't that success?

Thomas hung up the phone, wanting to share his joy with others, and found that the colleagues around him were busy and no one cared about him.

I want to yell twice, but the poor man doesn't even have a separate office.

girlfriend? I worked overtime early until we broke up.

There is only one person who can and must share.

Thomas called Martin and said, "We're winners! We won the damn role!"

On the other side, Martin is taking Bruce to the fitness center to receive guidance from a beautiful female trainer and exercise his body

He wiped his sweat with a towel and smiled: "Very good! Very good! Thomas, our hard work has paid off! We will all be winners in the future, not losers!"

Bruce had a lively chat with the big-ass female coach, but now he turned around and asked, "Did you get it?"

Martin gave him a thumbs up: "It's done!" He then said to Thomas: "Isn't there a personal assistant in the crew? Help me get one, and I'll take Old Bu there to see it."

There are four actors' personal assistants, and Thomas thinks it's not a big problem: "It should be possible to negotiate, but there is one thing I want to inform you in advance. The filming location of the crew is Queensland, Australia."

What Martin cares about is the role and the future: "It doesn't matter if the crew goes to shoot on the moon."

Thomas said: "I'm going to the crew to discuss the contract and wait for my good news."

After hanging up the phone, Martin opened his hands and gave Bruce a high five.

Susie, a female trainer with abnormally developed gluteus maximus, came over and asked, "You got the leading actor in a movie?"

"No, it's not me." How could Martin grab Bruce's favor, pointing at Old Bu and said, "He got the leading actor, and I'm just Old Bu's little follower."

Susie immediately threw away Martin, the follower, and continued to chat with Bruce in full swing.

Even Bruce agreed to test the flexibility of her glutes.

Martin suppressed his excitement, counted the time difference, came to a quiet place, and called Louise.

"I got the role, nothing else, I want to say thank you."

"I didn't see the sincerity." Louise was really not polite to Martin at all, and she wanted to squeeze him dry: "What about the new formula? The Italian cannon has been sent out. I don't have the new formula in my hand. I feel uneasy and work. Can't do it."

Martin didn't refuse, but he didn't give it immediately either: "When you come back, you won't need it in Morocco."

Not long after hanging up the phone, Kelly Gray's cell phone called.

"I heard that you got a leading actor in a film crew?"

"It's not the male lead, it's just the most important male character." Martin simply explained: "The film has only one heroine, and I'll act for her."

Kelly said: "Just now that slut Louise called me to show off, Martin, what did you promise me?"

Martin thought it was none of my business for you to compete? He was very helpless: "I just came here, and I racked my brains to find a role. I have no status and power. How can I contact the crew for you? This project has long been scheduled to go to Australia for filming. Let alone me, even Louise has no right to speak. "

Kelly smiled: "I just remind you, don't forget the promise."

Martin said: "That will have to wait until I have a certain amount of power and status."

Meanwhile, the Beverly Hills Hilton.

After Jason Sean was released on bail by the lawyer, he went to the top floor of the hotel and knocked on the door of the luxury suite.

The door of the room was opened from the inside, and the girl with a bag who had specially tanned her skin said, "Paris is waiting for you in the living room."

"Thank you, Kim." Jason Sean strode into the living room.

When Paris, who was wearing pink home clothes, saw him, she couldn't help but said, "I told you to go to the audition, why did you hit someone?" Her voice suddenly rose, "You didn't even go, and I couldn't find the crew leader. There is no reason!"

Jason waved his hand and sat on the single sofa.

Paris got angry and ignored it: "I'm talking to you, did you hear me? I've done so much for you, you idiot..."

"Shut up!" Jason exploded: "Do you know why I hit someone? That bastard is insulting you, he insulted you with a videotape!"

He waved his hand: "Forget it, it's meaningless to say this, Paris, thank you for everything you have done for me, let's end here."

After speaking, Jason felt inexplicably relieved, and left the suite without looking back.

When the door closed, he heard the continuous sound of things breaking.

Paris smashed the TV, the floor lamp, and everything in sight.

After she finished venting, panting heavily, she said to the girl carrying the bag: "Jin, clean up here. Also, throw away everything related to Jason Sean, throw it all away!"

Paris went to the bathroom, and the door slammed shut.

Kardashian found a large garbage bag and squatted down to pick up the garbage all over the floor.

It felt so bad, it made her want to run away, like Jason Sean.

But she endured it.

…………

In the afternoon, Thomas asked Martin to meet at Cafe Tiago.

"The contract is basically negotiated, and the qualifications of "Zombie Gigolo" helped you a lot." Thomas won the maximum: "The film salary is 150,000 US dollars, second only to Eliza Cuthbert among the actors."

Martin had already been mentally prepared. The crew originally took the vast majority of the total film salary. He remembered reading a report that in "The Wolf of Wall Street", Leonardo's film salary was 20 million+, and the first supporting role Jonah Hill Only $60,000.

There are many similar examples. The villain Mickey Locke in "Iron Man 2" was paid as little as $25,000.

Thomas said in detail: "full insurance in compliance with union regulations, business class air tickets to and from Australia, salary of a personal assistant during filming, separate makeup trailer, independent suite accommodation, and a car in Australia..."

Martin glanced across Thomas's face. The agent's eyes were red and bags under his eyes were thick. He seemed to be five years old during this time, and his hairline had moved back. I don't know if it was his illusion, but his hair looked a little thinner. .

"Yes." He has no qualifications to ask for more: "I don't worry if you do things."

Thomas was worried that Martin would be complacent: "Getting a role is only the first step. You are a rookie actor. Show the attitude you should have. You must cooperate with the crew and let people see your professionalism!"

Martin nodded. "I will." He asked a key question: "What if someone on the set wants to play against me?"

Thomas thought about it for a while, and said: "If the position of producer, director, director of photography, etc. is far superior to yours, just endure the grievances. When you really reach a high position, there are some ways to pay back!"

He knows that the ecological environment in the industry is bad: "If it is someone who is not as good as you or someone who is similar to you, then return it ten times and tell everyone that you are not easy to mess with! Egg, other people will bully you."
