This week, I started to rush to the new book list!Ask for recommendation votes!Ask for clicks!All kinds of requests!)

At the end of the day's shooting, Matthew took off his makeup, changed back into his clothes, and followed the other extras to several dining cars to pick up a buffet dinner and prepare for dinner.

Because Michael Sheehan temporarily crammed and went to another area to find Helen Herman, after Matthew received the lunch box, he went to the outermost part of the dining area alone, found an empty table and sat down, opened the lunch box and prepared to eat.

Although the salary and status are not high, the extras eat quite well, and the "Gladiator" crew provides a very rich meal, including beef fish and chicken barbecue, burgers, hot dogs, vegetable and fruit salad, rice, pasta, French bread, all kinds of drinks and pastries and ice cream, etc., all of which are self-served, and there are tables and chairs.

Just now he heard that if you have to work overtime to shoot at night, there will be additional meals, and you can take all kinds of snacks and drinks at will.

For people like Matthew, it is also very happy to be able to live in such a spacious crew every day, not to mention eating well, drinking well, sleeping well, and getting a salary.

It's a pity that after this village, I don't know when I will meet the next store.

Matthew knows very well that a crew like "Gladiator" is only a minority in Hollywood.

After eating a piece of roast tender beef, Sean was just about to drink water, and the mobile phone that was turned on after removing his makeup suddenly rang.

He took it out and looked at it, it was an unfamiliar number, but he still answered, "Hello." ”

"It's me, Helen. A familiar female voice came from the phone, "Matthew, where are you?"

Matthew didn't know what she was looking for to do, and said, "The extras dining area, the easternmost place." ”

"Okay, wait for me a while. ”

After saying this, the other party hung up the phone.

After taking a sip of water, Matthew sped up, finished his lunch, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and after waiting for a while, he saw Helen Herman in a professional suit coming over.

"Over here, Helen. Matthew looked like the two of them knew each other very well, beckoned, waited for Helen Herman to come over, and asked, "Have you eaten?"

"Not yet. Helen Herman lifted her glasses and went straight to the point, "I have a role here, and you should fit in." ”

When she heard Ridley Scott's words at the time, the first thing she thought of was Matthew who dangled in front of her eyes from time to time, and remembered that he played a role with lines in the crew of "Soul Shifter", so there should be no problem.

Matthew immediately came to his senses, "What role?" He was a little skeptical, "I participated in the filming in the morning......"

"It doesn't matter. Helen Herman sat across from her and said in detail, "The morning shots are all long shots, you can't see your face, tomorrow the character is the leader of the barbarians, and there are a few action scenes." ”

"Barbarian leader?" Matthew had a feeling of surprise.

Helen Herman nodded, "There are large close-ups of the front and big full-body shots, and characters who will appear in multiple shots." ”

"I'll take it!" Matthew didn't even think about it, "Helen, when is the contract signed?"

"Wait a minute...... Helen Herman has to make it clear as an agent, "There is a certain danger in action scenes! I went to Ridley Scott in the afternoon to read the script, and the danger factor is not high. ”

"Aren't there protective measures?" asked Matthew.

Helen Herman crossed her hands and put them on the table, "There will be very good protection, you won't get hurt more than one percent, and I'll renegotiate with the crew and let them sign a new contract with you, and the crew will have to buy insurance for you." ”

"What about the pay?" asked Matthew, the most concerned question, "will the pay increase?"

"Yes!" Helen Herman said directly, "and you can get $8,000 for this role, not counting other pay." ”

Hearing the payment of eight thousand dollars, Matthew urged, "Helen, choose me!"

The tuition of the acting school has to be paid, and the liquidated damages are also imminent, and he needs money too much now.

"That's good. Helen Herman stood up, "I'm going to talk to the crew, you don't go back just yet, wait for my call, there might be an audition later." ”

She stood up, turned around and prepared to leave, and before leaving, she said, "Keep your phone on!"

"Hmm!"

Matthew nodded vigorously, from the moment he came to the set, he tried to impress Helen Herman, of course, not to chase her, so that she could think of herself first in situations like this.

Now it seems that this time of effort has not been in vain.

Helen Herman had not taken a few steps out when a tall young man approached, and when the man saw her, a flattering smile spread across his face, "Hello, Miss Herman. ”

"Hello!" Helen Herman remembers as an extra brought in by Angel Inc.

She was hungry, and she ignored the young man's flattering smile and walked away.

Michael Sheehan saw Helen Herman leave, and furrowed a pair of good-looking eyebrows, as if the other party was a little unkind to see him?

Then, he turned his head to look at Matthew, and couldn't figure out what was going on, he was looking for Helen Herman everywhere, but she took the initiative to come and find Matthew?

Michael Sheehan felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't show it, and as usual, he walked across from Matthew, sat down with a big grin, and asked, "Why did she come to you......?"

"You're thinking too much. Matthew interrupted Michael Sheehan, "She got a role, thought I was a better fit, and came over to inform me." ”

"What character?" said Michael Sheehan's eyes widened.

Matthew said casually, "Chief of the Germanic barbarians." ”

There's nothing to hide about this kind of thing, after all, it's going to be filmed tomorrow, he roughly said.

Michael Sheehan's eyes widened, "Why did she think of you? not me?"

"Oh......" he said with a quick smile when he realized that he had lost his words, "I don't mean anything else, I just think it's useful for you to be familiar with your face." ”

Matthew laughed too, "Looks like it's kind of useful." ”

Anyway, he felt that with so many extras coming to the angel company this time, it was impossible for Helen Herman to remember everyone, let alone have a good impression of everyone, and it was always right to say hello and make a familiar face.

Michael Sheehan shook his head, regretting it to death, why couldn't he think of this? If he is the one who often greets him, is this a good opportunity......

He has been an extra for three years, and he has never had such a good opportunity!

This is a stand-alone character, and there will definitely be a positive close-up, which may be able to make an impression on the audience or the directors and producers of other crews.

Michael Sheehan's eyes widened, and he looked directly at Matthew, the opportunity was clearly in front of him, but he was going to pass by him.

Matthew was a little uncomfortable when he looked at him so stunned.

"Hey, Mike!" he reached out and shook it in front of Michael Sheehan, "What do you think?"

"That ......" Michael Sheehan has discovered that he is obviously not able to catch up with Matthew in terms of human sophistication, but this is not to say that there is no chance at all, he and Matthew have been mixed together since they came to the set. He thought about what to say before he spoke, "Matthew, are we friends?"

Hearing this, Matthew felt weird, but still nodded, "Of course." ”

Although Michael Sheehan, like him, is very purposeful, the two get along very well, and Matthew is also classifying him as a friend.

"When I see you, I feel envious. Michael Sheehan let out a long sigh and seemed a little depressed, "You got the first role with a line, or with big stars like Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie......"

For some reason, Matthew felt that the meaning of the words did not seem right.

Michael Sheehan turned into a bitter melon face, "Look at me again, I've been in Los Angeles for three years, I've played so many roles, and I don't have a single complete line." ”

He shook his head vigorously, "Sometimes, I feel that the world is really unfair. ”

The world is inherently unfair, Matthew thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it.

Michael Sheehan continued, "In order to come to the crew, I quit my job this time, and when I go back after filming, I don't know what to do next. ”

Matthew somewhat understood what he said, but instead of answering, he said, "Don't worry, it's not that hard to find a temporary job." ”

"He didn't understand?" Michael Sheehan's eyebrows furrowed even tighter, and he paused, deciding to pick it out directly, such an opportunity he didn't want to miss.

"Matthew, can you help me?" Michael Sheehan's eyes were full of hope, and he looked directly at Matthew, "In the most difficult time, pull your friend by the hand!"

Speaking of which, Matthew gradually understood what Michael Sheehan meant, but such an opportunity is rare for Michael Sheehan, and it is equally rare for him.

It's a job that pays up to $8,000, and with so much money to spend in the future, where can he find an opportunity to earn so much money in a short period of time?

"Mike, it's not something I can decide. Matthew smiled and declined, "I'm just a little actor, it was Helen Herman who gave me this opportunity, and I didn't have the right to speak." ”

Michael Sheehan shook his head repeatedly, "No! Not really! Matthew, among the actors from the angel company, you are most familiar with Helen Herman, if you are willing to recommend me to her, I think she will definitely consider it!"

Matthew was silent, looked across the side, and just gave up his $8,000 job? The problem is that even if he wanted to, Helen Herman might not be willing to use Michael Sheehan, and this wishful thinking is very likely to lead to a chicken and an egg in both ends.

Sitting here, Matthew thought for a moment, sighed softly, and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help you." ”

Having said that, this kind of thing is not something he can help if he wants to.
