Chapter 33: Jessica Alba
The third more
……
Link, who had taken a few days off, was once again in a state of work, but instead of being busy with things on the TV station, he was doing something else.
It was only at this time that Link realized that there were really not enough people around him, and Fat Jack needed to stay in the CAA TV station to direct the work, and he didn't want to disturb Mira and the others, so he had to get on the plane to Los Angeles alone.
As soon as he got off the plane, he dialed Fat Jack's phone: "Fatty, are you sure that person is in Hollywood?" ”
"Yes boss, he's my college classmate, but he's much better than me. Now his company is facing bankruptcy, and the address is the one I gave you. ”
"Okay, I'll find out for myself."
Link hung up the phone and looked up at the bright sunshine, the warm feeling made the fatigue along the way disappear a lot.
Unlike New York, which often rains, Los Angeles is sunny all year round, and even the winter is still warm, which may be why it can be a mecca for movies.
When I took a taxi to Hollywood, through the car window, Link could see the "Hollywood!" engraved on the mountain from a distance, and even Link himself couldn't help but get excited.
His long-standing wish was to be able to establish himself in Hollywood, and he had planned to spend ten years working in Hollywood, and after ten years he would be able to direct his first film.
But now, God played a huge joke on him.
"Although I am already a director and have filmed an American drama, I ......"
Link shook his head and began to ask around by address.
Soon after, he appeared in front of a house in an old town, and looked at the billboard on the gate, which was exactly what he was looking for.
"Fox Films." Link was a little strange and didn't know why he had such a special name.
Link walked in, and there was a black woman about forty years old sitting at the door, and he couldn't help asking, "Hello, where does Mr. Polk work?" ”
The black woman Xing didn't even answer, still looking at her newspaper.
Link shook his head and walked straight up the stairs.
Seeing Link go up, the black woman scolded in a low voice: "What a broken company, I haven't seen you make a movie, but the creditor comes to the door every day." ”
Link walked up the stairs and saw a few people packing up, or 'looting'.
These people simply won't let go of anything they see, and they are still swearing in a low voice.
Next to him, a young man in his twenties was squatting in the corner of the wall hugging his head and crying: "Take it, take it all away, you. The ...... of the child's raising"
Link couldn't help but feel even more strange, although he knew that the company was bankrupt, it wasn't like this.
"Excuse me, is this Fox Films?" Link asked.
A few people who were moving things answered: "Phew, what kind of film production company, no bullshit has ever been filmed." ”
Link shrugged his shoulders, walked up to the young man, and asked, "Hello, I'm looking for Mr. Polke." ”
The young man said without raising his head: "Let's move whatever you like, we don't have a penny left, and that's all we have left." ”
Link couldn't laugh or cry, how many creditors are there, and he regarded me as a creditor without even asking.
"You misunderstood, I have something to talk to Mr. Polk, do you know Jack?"
"Jack? Uncle Jack? The young man looked up, tears still on his face. You are ......"
Link smiled and reached out and handed it over, "This is my business card." ”
The young man looked at him strangely, looked down, and then shouted, "Lin ...... Link, are you Link? ”
"You should probably call me Mr. Link."
"Oh, I'm sorry Mr. Link, I'm Johnny, my father is inside, I'll take you there." Johnny led Link to a relatively new-looking office, except for a middle-aged man holding a bottle of low-quality vodka.
"Daddy, stop drinking, Uncle Jack said last time that Mr. Link is here."
Link glanced at the middle-aged man, the smell of alcohol was a little pungent, but he also knew that the other party must be Poke.
Polk and Jack were college classmates, and after graduating, one went to Hollywood to develop, and the other stayed in New York.
After more than 20 years in Hollywood, Polk is also a well-known videographer, and a few months ago he co-founded a film production company with a friend, but the partner ran away with money a few days ago. As a result, the fox film production company, which had just been established for a short time, declared bankruptcy without filming a single movie.
When the creditor came to the door, they didn't care if you were cheated out of money, and just took everything of value, and Polk became what he is now.
"Forget it, let him sleep first." When Link saw Polk now, he knew that he couldn't talk about anything at all, so he could only let him sleep first and talk about anything else when he was awake.
Link chatted with Johnny for a while, and then he understood the situation, and saying that 'bankruptcy' was all about glorifying it.
The two agreed to come back tomorrow, and walked out of the 'Fox Film Production Company'.
With a wry smile, Link also knows that things like this are staged in Hollywood almost every day. There are too many people with dreams who have struggled here for more than ten years, or even decades, and in the end they still have nothing.
"Maybe it's God's favor that gave me that kind of adventure. In fact, it's not bad to be a TV director, at least you won't be cheated out of money by your partner. ”
Link shook his head, wondering why this thought had arisen.
Since you have come to Hollywood, it is natural to visit major attractions, such as the Kodak Theater.
Link spent most of the day walking inside and saw a large number of handprints left by celebrities, including Steven Spielberg.
After browsing the famous Hollywood attractions all day, I found a hotel to stay in the evening, and turned on the TV set to watch CAA TV.
On the TV screen, Linda is broadcasting a news program live.
"Hehe, if Linda knew that I was watching her live stream in Hollywood, I don't know what the expression would be."
Link was so childlike that he picked up his phone and sent a text message to Linda.
On the TV, Linda smiled playfully at the camera, and Link couldn't help but laugh too. He knew that it must have been Fat Jack who showed the phone to Linda.
The phone rang, and it was a text message from Jack.
"Little boss, is the matter done?"
Link replied, "It's a little trouble, I'll get back to you tomorrow." ”
Turning off the TV, Link is getting ready for bed, he is used to resting early when he is fine, and the nightlife is almost insulated from him.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Link couldn't help but wonder, "Who could it be?" I don't seem to have any friends in Hollywood, could it be that Polk woke up drunk? ”
Link gets up and opens the door, only to see a girl with heavy makeup standing in the doorway, smiling at her.
"Sir, do you want some exciting games?"
Link frowned slightly, "No need, thank you." ”
The girl's eyes darkened, and Link was about to close the door, but suddenly stopped: "Jessica Alba? ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, and quickly shook her head: "You recognized the wrong person." With that, he quickly ran away.
Link hesitated for a moment, then chased after him, and when he walked outside the inn, he happened to see a car parked in front of the door, and the girl was standing in front of the car talking to a middle-aged woman.
Link pretended to be a passerby and walked slowly past him.
Jessica Alba stroked her chest and said nervously: "Oh my God, I was recognized, this way of entering the play is also embarrassing." ”
The middle-aged woman Xing smiled: "Jessica, don't be nervous. In order to compete for the title lady of this movie, you have to persevere. Think about it, if you don't use this method, how can you deeply understand the mentality of a 'Ji girl'? ”
Link then realized that it was Jessica Alba who was competing for the heroine of a movie, and she was just 'experiencing life'.
"It's you!"
Jessica suddenly recognized Link, and could only blame Link for pretending to be too fake, and when she pretended to pass by for the third time, she was recognized by Jessica at once.
"Hehe, I'm just walking around."
Link explained embarrassedly.
"You know?" The middle-aged woman Xing glanced at Link and asked strangely.
Jessica suddenly became shy: "Just ...... He was the one who opened the door, and he recognized me. ”
Link scratched his head, also feeling a little embarrassed.
The middle-aged woman Xing stared at Link and said, "Sir, I hope you forgot what happened just now, understand?" ”
As she spoke, she pulled a few dollar bills from her purse and reached out to Link.
But Link was angry all of a sudden, and said coldly: "Don't worry, I haven't seen anything, so I won't break your bank." ”
After saying that, Link didn't stay any longer and approached the inn directly.
"You ......"
Seeing that Link was so unruly, the middle-aged woman Xing was also a little angry.
"Forget it, let's go quickly."
At Jessica's urging, the two got into the car.
Jessica glanced back at the inn, her face still hot.
