Chapter 3 Hollywood's Most Successful Director
If Hollywood is the center of world cinema, the "Big Six" film companies are the most dazzling pearl above its head.
From the "Eight" to the "Seven" (Luen Mei Dead), and then from the "Seven" to the "Big Six" (MGM Dead), there are only dead giants, and "DreamWorks" can only be counted as half at most, and finally have to throw themselves into the arms of the "Big Six".
Now is the time when "DreamWorks" is in full swing, Li Fulong looked at the "boy sitting on the crescent moon fishing" logo, and sighed, this is the famous Hollywood film company - DreamWorks.
Thanks to the sign at the door, Li Fulong knew that the interview was held in the audition room of the "DreamWorks" film company.
Hurried over, not yet in the audition room.
Li Fulong saw two old men with glasses, one tall and one short, walking over, and felt very familiar, so he heard the two talking while walking.
"Steven, this is a big movie, give Eddie another chance, he is still young and prone to mistakes, and besides, he is George's child after all. The tall old man said.
"William, my old friend! Although DreamWorks has investment, it is a project that Paramount cooperates with, and I don't count many things. Well, although the main roles have been decided, if Eddie can come to the audition, I will make the decision to arrange a role for him. The short old man replied.
"Steven, thank you! Actually, Eddie is also a very attentive child, if it weren't for George and they left early, he wouldn't have fallen into the way he is now!"
"William, we don't have to be so polite to each other! Eddie, after all, is also my godson. But, William, look away, Hollywood is a vanity fair, and it's easy to get lost when you become famous!"
Hearing that it seemed to be talking about myself, Li Fulong hurriedly followed.
I heard the tall and older man with glasses shouting: "Eddie, Eddie, you stinky boy, didn't you tell you to have an interview at 9 o'clock, what time is it, I'm here!"
At this time, Li Fulong reacted, and realized that this was his cheap uncle William, and quickly replied: "Uncle, I'm sorry! I don't have a car, so I finally came here!"
"Oh, I forgot about that, forget it! Fortunately, it's Steven's audition, if it's someone else, you won't even have a chance! Pay attention next time, why don't you meet your godfather soon!"
At this time, Li Fulong realized that this ordinary, gentle, and round old man with round glasses was the great Hollywood director Steven Spielberg!
Hollywood's greatest directors of all time, Hitchcock, Coppola, Spielberg, Kubrick, no one can tell!
But if there's one Hollywood director of all time, it's undoubtedly Steven Spielberg!
He proved to the world that "he is Hollywood!".
This is a great director in Hollywood! This is a person who stands at the top of Hollywood's power list! This man is still his own godfather!
Li Fulong thought excitedly.
"You don't even need an interview, you can directly participate in Spielberg's movie, this is called related!
"Eddie, you're not too small, it's time to pay attention! This time it's a small character, I guess you heard it just now. But let me remind you that this is a war movie, and all actors must participate in military training. Listen, this is real military training, are you okay?"
"No problem, sir, Steven, I will, I'll definitely act well in the future!" Li Fulong said nervously, taking Spielberg's hand.
"Kid, in two days, let's report directly to the crew! It's okay to read more books on the Normandy landing in the past two days!" Spielberg patted Li Fulong on the shoulder, turned his head and said to William, "There are still a lot of things to deal with in the crew, William, I'll go first! Another day, call Lucas, and a few of our old guys will get together again!"
"Well, Steven, Eddie and I will go first!" William pulled Li Fulong and got straight into an old Ford.
On the way back, Li Fulong also accepted this kind old man, and chatted without a word.
"Eddie, I thought you weren't coming, so I rushed over on purpose! I originally arranged for you to play the role of the second male, but the producer has already decided on this role!"
"It's Steven this time, and I won't have such a good chance next time! Eddie, you remember 'this is Hollywood', and you have to rely on yourself in the end!"
"Well, I see, uncle!"
"Eddie, Uncle really hopes that you can reform and act well! Uncle, I'm too old to take care of you for the rest of my life. ”
"Uncle, I will, I won't touch those things again, this time I suddenly understood a lot of things, in the future, I will definitely work hard!" Li Fulong said.
But what I thought in my heart was: If you knew that your nephew had another night of partying yesterday, you wouldn't be angry!
It's not because I don't have any money because I don't have any money! However, such a good old man can't hang up so early, and I have to count on him in the future!
"Eddie, Steven's side, I'll arrange it for you in the next two days, and you can go directly when the time comes. ”
"Okay!"
"Well, now that my uncle is not with you, your sister Anna is going to do an internship at CAA, and I will send you directly to the apartment in a while, and you have to go to New York. I'll wait until you get back!" William said, rubbing his head.
"Okay, uncle, I'm sure I'll do well this time!"
After saying goodbye to William, he returned to the apartment.
Li Fulong lay on the bed, calmed down and thought about it, and sighed for a while.
In his previous life, he was unsatisfactory, and he was busy and did nothing.
In this life, I can be regarded as having a good starting point, I was born in an acting family, and my parents have passed away, which is embarrassing;
Uncle William is a senior partner of CAA, and the power is estimated to be not small;
The godfather is the famous director Steven Spielberg, the most powerful person in Hollywood, at least there is no problem arranging a role today.
Isn't the gap between the poor and the rich the inequality of opportunity?
Although I have memories of this life and have a certain foundation, after all, I have never really acted, and it must be difficult to gain a foothold in Hollywood, so I must seize this opportunity.
"I want to make a lot of money!" Li Fulong suddenly yelled, "I want to be a big star!" After yelling these words, Li Fulong's depressed mood in the past few days became happy, even though he knew that this road would be very difficult.
No matter how bad and ridiculous it is now, after all, I have become Edward Fulong, and instead of this unlucky ghost, I will naturally inherit everything from him - identity, life, and I will be Edward Fulong in the future.
Li Fulong raised his head again, and looked through the dark window to see the sun rising outside, and a whole new world slowly unfolded before Edward Fulong's eyes.
