If you have a recommendation ticket in your hand, give more!)

The two workers who walked in front carried a huge bookshelf, which seemed to be mahogany, and it looked expensive, Matthew followed them into the door, the first floor was a hall, with many benches, and in the center of the hall was the front desk that surrounded the design, and a line of bold characters on it was particularly eye-catching-Angel Performing Arts Agency!

There was no one at the front desk, and there was a smell of new renovation in the hall.

Seeing that there was no one to receive him, Matthew thought for a moment and followed the group of workers up the stairs to the second floor.

The bookshelf was very heavy, as soon as the two workers went up the stairs, the one behind them was bent over, and after a few steps up, Matthew found that the workers behind him suddenly slipped their hands, and the bookshelves fell suddenly, so they smashed up the stairs, and it was very likely to hit people's legs and feet.

Matthew, who was originally a small man who did rough work, had a natural sympathy for this class, and hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the bookshelf from the other side of the worker.

His strength was very strong, and the bookshelf immediately stabilized, and the worker next to him felt a lightness in his hand, turned his head, and hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome. Matthew nodded slightly at him, "Let's go." ”

Since he stretched out his hand, he didn't intend to take it back, and helped the two workers carry the bookshelves and went up to the second floor together.

"Here, be careful. ”

At the staircase on the second floor, a woman in her twenties stood, directing workers to move things into an office, "Handle it gently, don't break the floor!"

The floors are new and bright, obviously freshly furnished.

Matthew assisted the two workers by moving the bookshelves all the way into the office, behind a large mahogany desk.

"Thank you!"

After putting the bookshelf away, the worker behind him immediately smiled and said to Matthew, "If it weren't for you, this bookshelf would be knocked." ”

"Nothing. It was only then that Matthew realized that the worker was about the same age as himself, in his early twenties at most, and said casually, "You're too polite." ”

The two of them walked outside together, and the young worker said, "You're an employee of this company?"

Matthew shook his head as he walked, "No. ”

Out of the office, he saw the woman at the top of the stairs tipping the worker, and soon came to the front.

The woman handed over a dollar bill, but Matthew didn't answer it, and said, "Are you an employee of an angel agency? I'm an actor, and I called you yesterday." ”

"Oh?" the woman looked at Matthew in surprise, and the young worker looked at him in equally surprise, and then took the initiative to say, "He just saw that the bookshelves were heavy, and he did us a little favor." ”

"Are you also an actor?" the woman asked, turning to the young worker.

What Matthew didn't expect was that the young worker nodded busily, "Yes, me too!" He scratched his head and smiled, "I'll deliver it to you today, and I'll come and have a look by the way." ”

"You'll wait!" the woman went to send the other workers away.

Matthew took a look and saw that the company seemed to be just a woman and an employee.

"Hello!" the young worker offered to introduce himself, "Michael Sheehan, from Nevada. ”

"Hello. Matthew nodded slightly, "Matthew Horner, Texan." ”

The woman walked back and beckoned to Matthew and the young worker named Michael Sheehan, "You two come with me." ”

Matthew immediately followed her into an office, followed by Michael Sheehan.

The woman turned on the computer, let Matthew and Michael Sheehan sit casually, and introduced herself, "I'm Helen Herman, the owner of Angel Agency. ”

She asked, "Did you two bring any information?"

"Brought it. Matthew opened his bag, and Michael Sheehan patted his head, "I forgot my stuff in the van, I'll go get it!"

Helen Herman nodded, "Yes." ”

Michael Sheehan hurried out.

Matthew was watching this woman, with Dennis Coulter in front of him, and he was a little wary of the profession of agent.

This woman is about 1.7 meters tall, her hair is a dark brown common to American women, meticulously combed behind her head, a face with a well-defined outline, facial features appear very three-dimensional, black-rimmed glasses on her sunken eye sockets, and a gray lady's suit on her body, revealing a shrewd and capable temperament.

In terms of appearance alone, she is more likely to make a good impression than Denise Coulter.

Matthew handed over a stack of materials, and Helen Herman began to type into the computer, typing on the keyboard as she said, "Congratulations, Matthew Horner, you're the first client of Angel Agency. ”

"First?" asked Matthew, slightly surprised, "this company has just been founded?"

Helen Herman didn't lift her head, "Yesterday was my first job advertisement. ”

Matthew couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "You won't be the only employee in this company, right?"

"There are two people for the time being. Helen Herman still didn't look up, "But I'm the only one at work today." ”

She asked, "Do you have a part-time job?"

"Yes, night driver. Matthew said simply, "Most of the time waiting, you can sleep and rest, and don't delay doing other things during the day." ”

Helen Herman went on to ask, "Want to stay in Hollywood?"

Matthew said without hesitation, "I want to be a big star and make a lot of money." ”

As he spoke, he carefully observed Helen Herman's expression, and if it was someone like Dennis Kurt on the other side, he would show a mocking look even if he didn't say anything.

The woman didn't change anything, just looked up at Matthew and said, "It's good to have a goal." ”

She stopped typing, looked up and said, "Since you want to be in this industry for a long time, for a long time in the future, even as long as a few years, your actor's salary will not be able to support you, and you need a part-time job! ”

Matthew nodded, and this was the main reason for staying with Red Penguin.

It's not that he can't find other better-paying jobs, but his hours are definitely not as free as the drivers of the Red Penguins, and working as a casual worker at low-end restaurants like McDonald's and KFC is not as good as his current job.

"Are you a union member?" asked Helen Herman.

"It's not. Matthew shook his head, "Didn't join." ”

"Why?"

Matthew said bluntly, "I don't have any money! I can't afford the $3,000 entrance fee, and I'm worried that the low hourly wage will make me less competitive." ”

Helen Herman continued to type in the information, and when she saw the line that Matthew had specially marked, she couldn't help but ask, "You had a line in your first role?"

"Yes. Matthew knew that this might be related to future job opportunities, for fear that the other party would not believe it, and said, "I just finished filming yesterday, and many people in the crew know this." ”

"Who introduced you to this crew?" Helen Herman asked, but the key was asked.

"Julie. "Matthew is pulling the tiger skin again," Miss Angelina Jolie introduced. ”

"Oh?" Helen Herman stopped working, "you know Julie well?"

Matthew shook his head, "Not familiar." He shrugged slightly, "If I knew each other, I wouldn't be here." ”

Helen Herman still looked at him.

"By chance, I did Miss Julie a little favor. Matthew casually explained, "She helped me get a character with two lines." ”

Although she didn't say anything more, Helen Herman made a special note on Matthew's file, and when the information was completed, she said to Matthew, "Keep your phone on 24 hours a day, there's a job for you, and I'll call you." ”

It was much the same as the other two companies, and Matthew, who didn't expect to get special treatment, stood up and said a polite word to Helen Herman, and walked out of the office to the stairs.

As soon as I reached the staircase door, the same Michael Sheehan from before happened to trot up.

"Done?" he saw Matthew and asked, "leaving?"

Matthew nodded, "I've got the case ready, go back and listen to the phone." ”

"How many roles have you got, man?" asked Michael Sheehan again.

"There is only one. Matthew sighed, "The competition is too fierce. ”

"Don't worry, it's going to get better and better. Michael Sheehan laughed, "I was the same when I first started in the industry, but now I've played more than twenty roles." ”

Probably just now Matthew helped him, and the young porter said, "If you have time, go to a few more intermediary companies for the record, and there will be more opportunities." ”

Matthew thought the same thing, "Thanks, I'll run a few more tomorrow." ”

Michael Sheehan still had to go for the record, and soon left, Matthew left the building, went to the newsstand to buy a lot of newspapers, entered a nearby street park, found a bench to sit down, opened the newspaper to find similar job advertisements, counted phone numbers, and then dialed one by one, and agreed with the other party to enter the information.

Maybe it's because of the relationship that played a role, and these companies basically didn't refuse.

In the following week or so, in addition to maintaining exercise and reading, Matthew almost traveled around the Los Angeles area during the day, and filed with more than 20 actor agencies, and even went to the two major actors' unions, but due to various conditions, he could only be a passer-by of the union for the time being.

During this period, I also received a call from an intermediary company, got a job in a horror film crew, and lay on the ground as a corpse.

There's nothing to mention about this kind of work, Matthew's face is on the ground, his body is covered in blood-red ketchup, the camera only sweeps by, and he only gets paid twenty dollars for three hours.

In the crew of "Soul Shifter", such good luck is not often encountered by a small person like him, and Matthew can only wait for the opportunity slowly.

Fortunately, he still has a job as a driver, and the salary he earns can support himself.

Shortly after the Red Penguin Company paid him his first month's salary, Matthew finally waited for a call from Angelina Jolie's assistant Vanessa, who helped him connect with an acting training school in order to repay the favor and fulfill his promise.
