Chapter 816: Don't Mention Football to Me
"What's wrong with you? Charis! ”
Rushing back to Los Angeles overnight, the agent who picked up the airport made a straight face when he saw it, "Didn't control your diet?" I've only been in New York for a few days, and my body has rebounded again! ”
"It's just a little puffy!"
So I'm fat and I'm going back? Charlise suddenly couldn't control her emotions and yelled at him, "I didn't sleep well on the red-eyed flight all night, and I'm going to take another trip back to New York tonight to continue playing that damn call girl!" I'm tired right now! Really tired, okay......"
"Uh, you ...... quietly"
Her sudden outburst caused people to look at the people on the left and near, and the agent's attitude immediately reversed, and he hurriedly whispered softly, "Why are you still crying?" I'm sorry, my fault, I shouldn't have said this to you. Don't cry and swell your eyes Oh Charis, anyway, you have to show up in front of Tom Hanks in the morning, come, while there is still some time, I will take you to do a beauty treatment, and eat something by the way, I also booked a room for you in the hotel near the audition venue, you can go there to rest and catch up on sleep while you wait. Rest assured, I've got everything in place, the makeup artist, the hairstylist are on standby, you're not a strong competitor, and the latest news I've found out is that Mr. Hanks and the casting director are very inclined to use you. ”
His main agent is all marginal artists, and he will wait for the sixth call girl, blade warrior, and unstoppable miracle to be released next year...... Hmph, I'm not a Hollywood nobody anymore! This will be the last time you'll be shouting at me! Charlise was secretly proud of the quiet transposition of the strength and weakness of the two sides.
"You've gained a little weight, haven't you?"
Even better news comes from Tom Hanks, the top actor's years of acting experience made him look good for the first time as a director, the audition that started on time in the morning was surprisingly only a cutscene, she immediately pretended to be pitiful, and tearfully replied that she was just filming Spike Lee's scene in New York, too involved, and then after catching the night flight back a little tired, Tom Hanks looked at it more and didn't bother more.
"So that's it? Actually, there are no other auditions today, I and the rest of the crew just went to see the cat and mouse game yesterday, and everyone was very happy with your performance, and the appearance in just a few seconds was very impressive, well done Charis. So...... The female number two is yours, let your agent come in and sign the contract, and we'll finish the matter today. ”
"Really!?"
Charlise jumped up and screamed with joy as she threw her arms around the superstar and rookie director and thanked her, "Thank you!" Mr. Hanks, thank you for this opportunity! ”
"Just call me Tom."
Hanks patted her on the back gentlemanly, "By the way, pay attention to the body shape, I want to see the perfect you before joining the group, and the relevant terms will also be written in the film contract." ”
"I will! Certain! She assured loudly.
"Charis! Miss Theron! ”
was going out to report the good news to the agent and the fat attendant, and the three of them hugged each other happily to celebrate, and the casting director chased him out from inside, "Take this." He handed over a business card, "One of my friends' projects, 'Two Days in the Valley' is also looking for actress auditions, I think you are very suitable for one of the roles, you can contact us." ”
"The Valley...... Two days ......" agent took over the business card for her, and the title made him think a little crooked.
"Don't worry, it has nothing to do with that valley."
The casting director smiled knowingly, "It's a very formal project, the plot structure is a bit similar to Quentin's vulgarity, multi-line narrative with multiple protagonists, and it is even possible to win awards after filming, you have a lot of roles in that role, and you can even be regarded as one of the heroines or two heroines, take advantage of the opportunity." ”
"Oh, how can I thank you......"
Charliss was very moved, and hugged the other party again, the casting director is Gay, and he was worried that he was trying to sneak himself, which was completely wrong.
"I want to audition, I just recommended it to the other crew, you are so beautiful, so smart, so hard-working, you will come out one day, just when I am doing venture capital." The casting director loved her, from the very beginning.
Anyway, how come you haven't met Tom Hanks and a kind person like him in the past few years? There is a man who covets his body standing at the door of all kinds of opportunities, including APLUS, and I would have stayed up a little longer if I had known......
Alas!
Am I unlucky? Charise leaned on the other's shoulder and sighed slightly.
"That's it!"
The conditions such as the salary have long been negotiated, and it didn't take much time for Charlis to officially win the role of the second female and the thick script.
"The heroine will be Liv Taylor." The agent reported an unfamiliar name, "Her father is Stephen Taylor, the lead singer of the Aerosmith band." ”
"It's another second-generation star."
She sneered greedily at the script, disdainful on her lips, and a little jealous in her heart, why didn't she have a good father?
"Her mother was a very famous flesh and blood in her early years, specializing in rock stars, and even with the whole band, it is said that in order to find out who the biological father is, there are more than a dozen singers in the circle who do paternity tests."
The agent broke the news, and then solemnly reminded, "Don't provoke her in the crew, her connections and resources are not comparable to you." ”
"We don't seem to have much to play with." Charlise quickly flipped from beginning to end, having only partially auditioned before.
"If you have time to study this slowly, don't rush, let's go, you can have a good rest today." The broker went to drive.
"Alas, I have to catch a night flight at night, and if I don't show up in the crew tomorrow, the assistant director will kill me."
Back at the hotel, the agent couldn't wait to find out about the two-day project in the valley, Charlis was very excited, she really wanted to throw a party to spread the good news in Hollywood, but ...... Forget it, it's just a breath away from the final success, you must be patient! She poured herself a large glass of champagne and leaned her neck back heroically to sip it away.
"Whew!" She sighed pleasantly, and then her stomach suddenly began to regurgitate again, retching.
"What's wrong, Charis?" The fat attendant asked.
"It's okay, maybe I'm drinking a little too fast." She pressed her hand to her chest and softened, feeling more comfortable.
"I just have time today, make an appointment with your family doctor? You've been having a little problem lately. The fat attendant asked with concern.
"It's good ......"
In fact, she wanted to see a doctor a long time ago, so after making an appointment, the two drove to the family doctor. When passing by the door of a theater, she saw a super-large poster of the cat and mouse game outside, which was the crew's 'family portrait' version, she knew that the actors on this kind of poster were arranged in a very particular way, the handsome male protagonist Jared Leto and the second male with a revolver John Malkovich occupied the center of the picture back to back, suggesting their hostile position in the plot, and the full-body photos of the two were also the largest proportion, and then the male number three and the female protagonist Amy Adams were separated on both sides, and the male number four and Ashley Judd, Xue Linfen and others were strictly in order of coffee positions, The proportion is also getting smaller and smaller.
She had already studied it carefully, and there was no herself in the poster, but there was the girl who stole her role as a bank teller, and even Amy Ake, who had less role than herself, and the girl and the other young girls who played flight attendants were lined up arm-in-arm and laughing brightly, as the background of the whole poster.
"Is there a chance to send Amy Adams to compete for Best Supporting Actress?"
is in this theater, Song Yazheng is accompanying Harvey Weinstein, who finally appeared, to watch the cat-and-mouse game again, and the box office momentum is good, so it is time to consider rushing for awards, if you can get some acting or technical awards or nominations in the shadow of the director's backlash, it can be regarded as a big victory, and you should fight for it.
"No, there's no chance, and you'll be talked about." Harvey, the award-winning expert, shook his head and refused, he stretched out his finger and said in a big way: "Best adapted screenplay, there is a chance, it is a good idea for you to let Johnny Carson, the most famous talk show host and screenwriter in the past, his energy alone is not small, I see that he has been jumping up and down recently, he must be very concerned about this award, let's join forces and work together." ”
"What else?"
As soon as the movie opened, the opening credits of Bowell Pictures and Hollywood Pictures appeared on the screen, and then A+ Film Studio, the simplest, is a line of big artistic words, Miramax followed, and finally a man in the shadow turned into a pigeon and flew away, which was the Scott Free Film Studio logo of the Ridley Scott Scott brothers.
"Let us pigeon, it turns out that your logo has already foreshadowed it, the old man ...... director," Song Ya muttered to himself.
"What do you put pigeons?" Harvey asked.
"Nothing."
The conversation continued, "It's hard with other awards, there's a chance for the best soundtrack, that's your area of strength. Harvey said.
"Well, is there really a chance? Won't it be a little rough? ”
Song Ya was a little embarrassed, because he was too lazy to carefully make complex orchestral music, he just bought the license of some old songs according to the original, and then handed over the brief score of the orchestral part to a professional soundtrack......
"Believe me, that's what the judges are doing now." Harvey laughed.
"Really?"
Song Ya was stunned, and if she knew it, she would have put more effort into it, and now it's okay, and she has to share it with the soundtrack artist when she gets the award......
"Help John Malkovich get a nomination for Best Supporting Actor, perfect!" Harvey had everything planned in between a few words and a laugh.
On the whole, I can be satisfied, I am not greedy, after the feature film started, Song Ya quietly deserted and thought about other things.
In the past Thanksgiving Day and the shopping festival of the United States on Black Friday, A+ clothing also handed over a satisfactory answer, relying on this festival This year's profits have increased a lot, and now their business is in addition to the media, which can be described as an all-round attack, so wait until next year's rich list......
Hehe, he couldn't help but grin in the dimly lit audience.
“APLUS! Mr. APLUS! Please wait. ”
After the screening, he was pestered by the entertainment company in charge of his December tour, Anschutz Entertainment, who also brought a senior executive from the sports department of the same company.
"Didn't I say that? Don't buy a football team, don't buy a football team! ”
The other party just mentioned the same old tune again, and took advantage of the cooperation with him to promote the Chicago Fire football team project again.
One is that he doesn't want to buy any ghost football team, and the other is that the apocalyptic football movie is just one clip away from collecting seven, and now in public, Harvey Weinstein is being interviewed by reporters in front, and countless cameras are facing him, he doesn't want to faint in this kind of place.
But it's not good to shake your face directly to get rid of the entanglement of these two guys, so you simply turn around and step on the high steps in front of the movie theater, wanting to hide indoors.
"MR. APLUS, BELIEVE ME, NOW THERE IS A NEW GOOD NEWS, BIG POSITIVE!"
The other party did not relent, "You know what? Now Brazilians like you very much, your song Ai Se Eu Te Pego is breaking out of Brazil, its influence is spreading to other Portuguese-speaking countries and even Spanish-speaking countries, it has even alarmed Mr. Havelange, have you heard of it? The FIFA (World Football Confederation) president also inquired yesterday, and he asked us if you would like to sing the theme song of the '98 World Cup! It's the theme song of the world's No. 1 sports era! Global influence explodes! We at Anschutz have a very close cooperation with FIFA, and so does your Sony Columbia Records, so you have a great chance! ”
If you have the opportunity to sing the theme song of the World Cup, of course, it would be great, but this kind of thing can't be talked about now, you know? My lord! "Okay, I'll have my agent contact them, but I don't buy any football teams! Don't talk to me about football now! No, just wait, just wait! Let's go inside and sit down and talk! OK? ”
"Buy it!"
Anschutz's people don't know what he's afraid of, and he's still chattering closely, "That's good, if you're willing to buy the Chicago Fire, no, just inject part of the equity, it doesn't need to exceed 50%, we will give you the right to run the team, help you fight for the World Cup theme song, etc., I'll add another condition, in order to promote the United States Football League, we also have a plan to shoot related movies in Hollywood, of course, it must be limited to football themes......"
"Ahh
Feeling a little dizzy, the apocalypse seemed to be starting to loosen, "How can it be pulled into the movie again, you!" I've said we'll talk about it later! Can't understand people? Wait a minute, let's get inside and talk! Got it!? He glared at the other man and yelled.
"Okay, okay."
Anschutz's people finally shut up.
The leather shoes of the three of them clicked up the stairs crisply, climbed to the highest place, the door of the theater was close in front of them, Song Ya was relieved in his heart, and sighed slightly.
"Seriously, APLUS This is a good opportunity, I want to think about our conditions, football, teams, movies, World Cup theme songs, any singer in the world who hears our conditions, I'm afraid they will wake up laughing from their dreams. If it's not hard to find a ...... like you that blossoms in South America, in North America, and in Hollywood."
The guy was a talker, and he couldn't hold back, and he nagged again, "Huh? What about people? APLUS, who was still in front of him, suddenly disappeared, only to see his bodyguards rushing behind him in a hurry.
“Shxt!”
TURNING HIS HEAD TO LOOK, SOMEHOW, APLUS'S EYES WERE CLOSED, AND THE ONE-METER-NINE STRONG MAN ROLLED DOWN THE STEPS WITH A CLATTER.
The reporters who interviewed earlier completely ignored Harvey Weinstein, and rushed to gather in front of APLUS's bodyguards, and the camera shutter lit up like a flashbang.
