(Ask for recommendation votes!)

In the Los Angeles District Court, Morris, with a bald head, stood around the corner of the corridor and looked at the door of the mediation room, which was tightly closed, and the parties involved in the mediation had not yet come out.

He signed a temporary contract with Matthew Horner at the time, and this lawsuit had little to do with him, but thinking of the series of negative effects brought by Matthew Horner's breach of contract to himself, he couldn't help but want to come and have a look, and specially found a relationship and accompanied the agent of the production company to the court.

Importantly, he sees this as an opportunity.

He was so embarrassed that he thought about getting Matthew Horner into a super hardcore crew.

But as a non-party, he could not enter the mediation room and missed the arrival of Matthew Horner due to going to the toilet just now.

Originally, he worked happily with the production company of "Taboo Tarot", but this breach of contract caused a lot of trouble, and it was not until he found another actor who satisfied the production company a few months ago that the other party completely let go of this matter.

Although the actress is the key to this kind of film, the actor is not just anyone, and he must have a strong capital.

Matthew Horner has a lot of money, and it's a waste not to make this kind of film......

Morris still regrets that he has been busy looking for actors for the production company for half a year, and he hasn't paid much attention to other things, and he doesn't know how the hillbilly is messing up.

But it's the same when you think about it, who can turn the world upside down in half a year? How will Matthew Horner pay back the $30,000 mediation liquidated damages?

$30,000 is definitely not a small amount! Morris thought in his heart, and made special inquiries before coming, this settlement agreement is to be paid in installments, and the other party's lawyer asks to pay it off in three installments, and the production company only wants to get a liquidated damages, and there is no special requirement for time, as long as it is paid off within the next year.

However, this also shows a problem, Matthew Horner has no money!

Morris pondered, if Matthew Horner can't afford to pay for it later, can he tempt him again? Of course, this time he can't be allowed to shoot ordinary films, and after getting into so much trouble, he must go to shoot super heavy genres? I heard that many companies in the valley that focus on people and livestock have always been short of actors......

Thinking of this, Morris almost laughed, but held back.

He knew very well that the production company did not attach much importance to it, and he didn't want to waste too much time on this kind of thing, if it wasn't for him secretly instigating, adding $30,000 would not be a small amount......

In the mediation room, under the auspices of the mediator, the two parties quickly reached an agreement, and lawyer Wilson handed over the out-of-court settlement agreement to Matthew, who simply flipped through it and gave it to Helen Herman, who specially accompanied Matthew over, looked at it and said, "No problem, sign it." ”

Matthew picked up the pen and signed the contract in duplicate.

Although he had to pay $30,000 and Wilson's attorney's fee of $4,000, the loss of $16,000 also relieved him of a considerable burden.

Moreover, Wilson's legal fees can be paid before the end of the year, and the $30,000 liquidated damages will be paid in three installments in the next year, so the pressure on him is not particularly great.

"It's finally over. Matthew breathed a sigh of relief.

Helen Herman nodded, and added, "I reminded you that you haven't paid attention. ”

Matthew was speechless, this time the facts made him understand that the kind of luck psychology of fantasizing about being greedy for small and cheap is just fantasy, and this evil American imperialism is an extremely realistic society.

He still has to be a realistic person in the future.

After signing the settlement agreement, the production company and the lawyer left first, and the lawyer Wilson had other cases to deal with, and he also left in a hurry.

Matthew and Helen Herman packed up their things and left the mediation room unhurriedly, walking down the hallway to the outside.

Around the corner of the hallway, the bald head Morris saw Matthew and almost didn't laugh, judging from his appearance, that guy must have suffered a lot lately.

He remembers very well that Matthew Horner used to be white and clean, but now what about it? The fair skin was completely gone, both on his face and on his arms exposed outside the short-sleeved T-shirt, it was very dark, obviously the result of long hours of outdoor work and exposure to the sun.

And in stature, Matthew Horner has lost a noticeable weight......

For a long time these days, Matthew Horner has been engaged in high-intensity physical work, which is low-status and does not earn a lot of money.

In Los Angeles, this kind of work is just to support yourself, and it is very difficult to pay off the huge debt of 30,000 dollars.

So, Morris's gaze fell on the woman next to him, who was wearing a well-fitting professional suit, and he smelled his peers from her.

"No wonder Matthew Horner dared to sign the settlement. Morris immediately thought of something, "I see!"

Watching the two people walk out of the door, Morris hurriedly followed, this Matthew Horner, who refused so resolutely at the beginning, caused him a lot of unnecessary trouble, but still embarked on this path.

This made him quite unhappy.

Out of the Los Angeles courthouse building, he saw the two people in front of him enter the parking lot, and hurriedly followed, seeing that the man and woman were about to get into the car when they opened the car door, he couldn't help but shout, "Matthew Horner!"

Matthew had just opened the passenger door when he heard someone calling out to him, and turned his head to look, only to see an unusually bright bald head rapidly approaching in the sunlight.

He raised his hand to cover the somewhat dazzling sunlight, and only then did he see the appearance of the person who came, and he couldn't help frowning.

Although they had only been together for a short time, Matthew remembered who this man was.

Helen Herman didn't get into the car, closed the open car door, looked at the bald head who came over suspiciously, from the bald head of the suit tie and briefcase, and the intuitive impression, I felt that I had met a colleague, but this colleague seemed to be a little different, but I couldn't say it for a while.

"Long time no see, Matthew. Morris came to Matthew with his briefcase, and deliberately looked him up and down carefully, and was surprised, "Have you gone back to the construction site to pick up a sledgehammer? Why are you so tanned? I thought I had met a black man just now......

In fact, Matthew is only a pale wheat color, and there is still a long way to go from the so-called black.

Before Matthew could speak, Morris looked at Helen Herman on the other side of the car, "This young lady, which agency do you belong to? ”

Helen Herman looked at Matthew, who shrugged, "That's the agent I was talking about." ”

She immediately understood.

Morris turned back to Matthew, "You can't make money as a driver with a sledgehammer? Are you in this industry again? Which crew is participating? Matthew, tell me about it, I know a lot of people in the whole valley, and I might be able to help you a little." ”

"What is the future with a female agent?" he wanted to pat Matthew on the shoulder, but Matthew reached out to block it, so he had to continue, "It's better to re-sign with me, I promise, you can become a big star and participate in the most heavyweight film in the industry." ”

Morris gave Helen Herman a disdainful look, he basically knew the important agents in the industry, this girl was obviously a novice.

"And you. He pointed to Helen Herman, "What kind of agent, with your appearance, go out to shoot in person, you will definitely be popular." ”

Helen Herman had a look of anger on her face, but Morris spoke quickly and said to Matthew, "What kind of inconspicuous little film did you make?

"Are you really going to pay?" Helen Herman said suddenly.

Morris touched his bald head and opened his mouth to speak, but he endured it again, just talking just now.

Helen Herman was obviously stimulated by the filming's words, and said, "Matthew's liquidated damages are average in the crew, 300,000 US dollars!"

"What?" Morris didn't believe at all, "$300,000, no kidding, Nikki Anderson's liquidated damages aren't that high!

"'Band of Brothers!'" Helen Herman said lightly, "DreamWorks, BBC and HBO invested, and produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg. ”

"It can't be!"

Morris turned to look at Matthew, how could this poor boy who was penniless, a fool who was even willing to make that kind of film in order to make money and be famous, get mixed up in a project executive produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg?

Helen Herman didn't plan to stop since she opened her mouth, "DreamWorks and HBO both have public phone numbers, and you'll know if it's true if you've called." ”

Hearing her say this, Morris suddenly had a sense of absurdity, and couldn't help but look up at the sky, the scorching sun was overhead, and the sunburned skin was burning, obviously not a dream at night.

"Forget it, believe it or not, I'm an entertainment agent with a regular license. Helen Herman pulled the door again, "There's not much to say to people like you." ”

With that, she got into the car.

Matthew also opened the co-pilot's door, in fact, he remembered that Morris also had a regular entertainment agent license, which played a lot of roles when he fooled another Matthew.

"I know you don't believe it. Matthew didn't get into the car right away, and said, "By the way, my last role was the lead actor of Britney Spears' MV, and this Friday morning is the MV's premiere, which is said to be broadcast live on TV, you can watch it." ”

"MV, Britney, or the actor?"

Morris was a little stunned, just looking up at the sun, his eyes were stimulated by the blazing sun, and with Matthew's words, he felt dizzy.

The sound of a car starting was heard nearby, and before Morris could come to his senses, the car drove away from the parking lot.

"When are you going to New York?" Helen Herman regained her composure, "I had people booked tickets." ”

Matthew shook his head, "No need, I'm going to go over tomorrow, and I've already booked my tickets." ”
