Chapter 118: Tango Girl

Eric also knows that behind this report, it must be that United States is making trouble, suppressing and smearing competitors for its own interests, this kind of trick has almost been used in all walks of life, but this simple and crude method can have a good effect every time.

After breakfast, putting Virginia's share in the refrigerator, and saying goodbye to the girl who was still lying on the bed to recuperate, Eric drove to Firefly Company, and there are still some actresses who need to audition today.

As soon as he arrived at the company, he was pulled into the office by Jeffrey, and he didn't need to ask, just look at the other employees of the company to see what was going on with his ambiguous eyes. As one of the most well-known newspapers in Los Angeles, in an era when there is no Internet and information is mainly transmitted by paper media and television, the subscription rate of residents in the greater Los Angeles area is still quite high, so Eric can be sure that everyone in the company must now know the news that appeared in the newspaper.

Facing Jeffrey's worried eyes, before the other party could speak, Eric quickly explained: "Jeffrey, I know that this is indeed my negligence. But Jennifer Connelly has already turned down the role, so when the roster of characters is announced, this rumor will definitely be self-defeating. ”

Jeffrey sighed and said, "Okay, Eric, hopefully you know what you're doing, do you need to contact Kapoor and do some PR?"

Eric shook his head: "There's no need, this kind of explanation will be considered a cover-up, and ignoring it is the best way to deal with it." ”

Jeffrey nodded, took out a copy and handed it to Eric: "This is the final offer I have negotiated with those sponsors based on your opinion, except for Motorola, the others have been confirmed, a total of $3.4 million, if you have no opinion, I will sign these contracts today." ”

Eric took it and looked at it, except for Motorola's $3 million big order that was not signed until Cruise and Hanks were finalized, the others have been decided, the highest Lamborghini paid $800,000, and the lowest Marvel comics only cost $100,000, and the file bag containing comics held by the robber Andy when robbing the finance company in the movie only had a glimpse of a shot, $100,000 is not too little, Eric was not sure if this advertisement could be sold.

Seeing the name of the Marvel comics, Eric couldn't help but subconsciously touch his chin, this is a big gold mine, and it must be won before the other party sells character licenses everywhere on a large scale in order to relieve financial pressure.

While the two were talking, Alan Fiessman knocked on the office door: "Mr. Hansen, Eric, it's audition time." ”

"I'll be right here," Eric replied, and Alan nodded and stepped out.

"Then I'm going to host the audition, Jeffrey, and I'll sign up according to the above conditions. Have a good rest on the weekend, and the scenery that starts next week will definitely be busy. ”

"I know," Jeffrey nodded, then gave a resentful look, "As long as you don't come to harass me in the middle of the night." ”

Eric pursed his lips, muttered, and waved his hand out of the office.

Maybe it's because I saw the news about the actor's internal decision, after the audition started, many audition actresses in a row seemed absent-minded.

Eric didn't bother to remind the other party of anything, he couldn't seize the opportunity with the hope of what happened, and he could only blame himself if he missed it.

"Next, Miss Gabriel Anwar. ”

A petite woman of about eighteen years old walked in, and although she was wearing small black heels, the girl's height was still less than 1.7 meters.

"Hello, my name is Gabriel Anwar. ”

Eric carefully looked at the girl his own age in front of him, with a sharp nose, thick lips, and a few Indian features, she should be a half-breed. Looking at the information in front of him, he didn't follow the procedure to let the girl introduce herself, but asked, "Miss Anwar, you came from England specifically?"

The girl nodded, her slightly thick lips revealing a charming smile: "I was born in Delsex, but I also grew up in London. ”

Eric smiled, knowing that the girl was close to him, he also grew up in London until he was eight years old before moving to Los Angeles, and Eric himself still has British citizenship, Williams is one of the five British surnames, whether he wants it or not, he will be destined to be classified into the Hollywood British circle.

"So, Miss Anwar, it shows that you went to a theater dance school, do you know how to do tango?"

The girl hesitated, but shook her head: "No, but I have studied ballet for ten years, and if I want, I can learn to tango in the shortest possible time." ”

Eric gave an appreciative look, "Miss Anwar, I like your honesty. But I don't think you're a good fit for the role, so there's no need to audition. ”

The girl heard Eric's first half of the compliment, and before she had time to be happy, she heard Eric's words, and sat there for a while, a faint mist quickly appeared in her big eyes, and she was speechless aggrieved.

When she saw the audition news of Eric Williams' new film actress released by Firefly, she sent her information completely with the psychology of buying award tickets, but she didn't expect to receive an invitation to audition, and the ecstatic girl finally persuaded her old-fashioned father to come to Los Angeles alone to participate in this audition, but she didn't expect the other party to veto her without even giving herself a chance to act, this blow made her instantly sad and wanted to cry.

"Oh, no," Eric was about to bow his head and write something, but when he saw the girl's reaction, he quickly waved his hand: "Miss Anwar, don't do this, I haven't finished yet." ”

The girl's tears were almost falling, and when she heard Eric's words, she wiped the corners of her eyes, but she was embarrassed to raise her head, and Eric gave a look from the assistant next to her, who hurriedly sent a box of tissues to Anwar.

Carefully wiping the corners of his eyes, Gabriel took out the makeup mirror in his bag and looked at it before daring to raise his head again: "I'm sorry, Director Williams, I'm a little out of shape." ”

"It's my fault," Eric was still quite afraid of the woman crying, and hurriedly took the responsibility on himself: "I didn't make it clear just now, I know that you are only eighteen years old, and it is not easy to come all the way from England to audition." ”

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Williams. ”

"That's right, Miss Anwar, the reason why I asked you if you could do tango is because you're a good fit for a role in another movie I'm working on, starring Al Pacino, do you know Al Pacino?"

Gabriel nodded: "Of course, I have watched your director many times in the UK, and the personable Edward played by Mr. Pacino is very charming. ”

"That's good, Al is missing the role of a tango girl in his next film, and the first heroine in that movie, and I took a fancy to you at a moment, if you can play that role well, I believe it will definitely help you more in your career than being the heroine in my film. ”

Gabriel originally came to the audition with the mentality of winning the lottery again, she has only participated in a few TV series in the UK, and she has not reported much hope. The reason why it collapsed just now was because Eric vetoed it without warning, which made her acceptable for a short time.

Now suddenly hearing this good news, the girl is once again in a dream, and after that, Al has once again become a popular A-class superstar all over the world, and even if he plays a small supporting role in the movie in which he starred, Gabriel will jump with joy, not to mention that she is still the first heroine.

"Mr. Williams, I really don't know how to thank you. The girl said with her hands on her chest and with an excited face.

Eric finished writing what he was about to write, asked the assistant to hand it to the girl, and said with a smile: "Miss Anwar, don't be too happy, although I do have the right to decide the role of that movie, I still have to consider the opinion of Al and the director Mr. Martin Brest, you have a week or so to prepare, and if you are too bad at that time, then I can only say sorry." ”

"I'll do my best," Gabriel said, taking the note, looking at the number and a few messages on it, and asked, "Mr. Williams, what is this?"

"UTA, oh, it's the phone number of Mr. Kapoor Sid, CEO of United Elite Agency, you need to call him and ask him to arrange a temporary agent for you to find a dance teacher for a week of tango step training. If, after a week, your watch is recognized by Al and Martin, then you need to join the UTA, Miss Anwar, would you like it?"

Being able to stay in Hollywood is something that many foreign actors dream of, and Anwar nodded without hesitation: "Of course, I do." ”

Gabriel Anwar was a pure accident, and Eric had no intention of this girl his age, but the other party happened to be the original tango girl, and Anwar and Al Pacino's tango was the finishing touch.

Since the other party can appear here several years in advance, it can be regarded as a fate, Eric will push the boat with the water, presumably the girl's table Xiàn will not disappoint him.

Sending Gabriel away, Eric lets go of the next document and glances at it: Brooke Threads

Oh, another Hollywood legend.

Compared with Jennifer Connelly's innocence, the beauty of Brooke Shields, who then walked into the audition room, is a little more powerful in Eric's opinion. However, from the obviously shiny eyes of several staff members around him, Eric understood that the appearance of Brooke Kosi, who is said to have the noble blood of Shikoku, is obviously more in line with the aesthetics of Westerners, otherwise he would not be jokingly called the 'Eighth Wonder'.
