Chapter 171: The Unique Red Sofa
In Los Angeles in November, the temperature also began to drop.
Fortunately, compared to the hot summer, although Los Angeles is cooler in mid-November, the average daytime temperature can also remain around 20-22 degrees.
In addition, there is sunshine, and you can even wear short sleeves at noon.
Other times, it is enough to wear a short suit, a T-shirt, a thin jean, and other clothing made of a single layer of cotton and linen.
In November, it is also the dry season in Los Angeles.
There is no need to worry about sudden rain.
This kind of temperature and weather is compared to New York, which has already had a snowstorm.
That's really much better.
On the 16th.
Anne Hathaway, in the crew of "The Princess Diaries", temporarily filmed her own scenes.
She was holding a copy of the script and was in a daze.
Almost a month ago, Anne and Abel had a great time playing in Los Angeles for two days.
She hadn't seen her boyfriend in a month.
Although since then, in the newspapers and some TV entertainment news.
She gets to see her boyfriend every day.
But the boyfriend she saw in that kind of place made her feel very annoyed.
Because in those places, the boyfriends she meets will always have other young and beautiful women around her.
When Abel's side appeared, it was Charlize Theron, a second-tier Hollywood actress.
Anne finally couldn't help it.
At that time, Anne, after hesitating for two or three days.
She called her boyfriend.
On the phone, when Anne was delayed Ai Ai, she asked the question with some hesitation.
Abel answered her with a smile on the other end of the phone:
"Hi ~ honey, listen to me explain, it's all fake. You know, I have Elizabeth's backyard modeling agency!"
"This company is just starting out, and it's not famous at all."
"Then I can only sacrifice myself to bring fame to the employees of the company."
"This will increase their worth and allow them to earn a little more money when they take over the job."
"Then my company, correspondingly, can also make more money."
"Annie, you know, those are fake."
"You're my girlfriend, you should know me!"
Anne didn't know if she could understand.
But on the phone, she still said that she understood.
That said, it turned out the next day.
The woman who was on the news with Abel was replaced by another.
The woman is different, but she has a young and beautiful appearance and a beautiful figure, as well as the appearance of intimacy with Abel in the media.
That's the same thing.
When Anne saw this, she could only comfort herself.
These are Abel, using his own fame.
To promote these people who have signed up with his company, which can bring him more benefits.
She comforted herself in this way, which made her feel better.
But it's just a little better.
You can rely on your own ability to get into a good university like New York University.
Anne is wrong, her IQ is really not low.
As time passed, Abel's lace news did not diminish at all.
So much so that in the end she counted, including herself.
In less than a month, he appeared by Abel's side.
A woman who behaves with him as close and even somewhat ambiguous.
There are sixteen of them.
Among these sixteen women, there are Hollywood actresses, youth TV drama idols, and popular supermodels.
Even a New York socialite!
Each one is very beautiful and has a good figure.
Holding some kind of inexplicable
Anne gradually went from a phone call to almost a day or two.
I didn't call Abel for three or four days.
However, Abel didn't call her either.
Anne was a little disheartened, a little clever her.
She lacks experience and is not so ambitious.
The more you think, the more you think.
So when the filming of "The Princess Diaries" was two-thirds completed, she began to be more idle.
Last week, she secretly went to the Screen Actors Guild.
She got a script, and it was a movie with an investment of about 10 million dollars.
She got the audition invitation very smoothly.
said that it was the starring role, but I didn't know until Anne went, it was just a small supporting role.
People know the existence of Anne Hathaway, one of the "Smith girls".
The time when she was at her most showy was over. But compared with ordinary stars, there is still a certain degree of popularity.
Even if she doesn't have a popular work yet.
For the sake of her taking the initiative, the other party thought that it would not be in vain.
Thinking of prostituting her name for nothing, and using her to add some popularity to the movie.
gave her, who was not famous in Hollywood before this, a chance to audition.
It's just an unimportant small supporting role, and there aren't many scenes.
It is estimated that after the movie is filmed, she may be pulled out as the focus of publicity.
Even so, she is ready to go next, after all. She was starting to want to be on her own.
She wants to prove herself!
Without someone, she can also mix well in Hollywood!
However, it turned out that she was overthinking.
When the casting director saw Anne's agreement, he bluntly said that he would let her go to the hotel in the evening to talk about the script.
When Anne heard this, she directly smashed the script in the face of the casting director, turned around and left.
With the disgusting appearance of the other party, she felt sick to her stomach when she looked at it.
She was depressed for two days.
Anne later heard that the audition director had been spotted in a black neighborhood in Los Angeles the next day.
The situation was miserable, and it was said that one of his legs was broken.
When Anne heard the news, she was silent for more than an hour.
After this extremely unpleasant audition experience.
Anne completely stopped the idea of auditioning for the play.
Combined with the more than two months she has been here in Los Angeles.
Listen to friends like Heather and Jolie, as well as some other gossip about the real situation in Hollywood.
Anne got it.
In Hollywood, there is never a chance given in vain.
She herself is in Hollywood, with no connections or background other than Michael Levine and Abel.
She used to get a small opportunity in New York because of Michael Levin.
After getting to know Abel, I got such a big opportunity for newcomers.
These are not opportunities that ordinary people can get.
Ordinary people who enter Hollywood, if they want to get a chance, they must give something.
And even if you pay, you don't necessarily get a chance.
South Hollywood below Beverly Hills, in a cluster of apartment buildings.
There are many pretty or handsome boys and girls living there.
Some of the girls in it have looks and figures, and sometimes even Anne herself feels that she can't compare.
But they can only live in those apartments, looking for opportunities everywhere in places such as the actors' union every day.
At least once a week, they drop themselves off in a room in a hotel.
They just want to get a chance.
Even so, sometimes you don't get what you give.
Anne understood.
Actually, this
These are the truths of Hollywood.
She also understood how rare the opportunity Abel gave her.
Facing the harsh reality, the reality of Hollywood.
Anne who is smarter and not smart enough, but still smart.
After this blow.
She quickly came to her senses.
She realizes that she has experienced a fairytale encounter and a star journey that has gone well.
It's not because of their ability and looks.
It's because of my own luck.
First, there is Michael Levine, a senior CAA senior agent who has a close relationship with her family.
After having Abel, a super good boyfriend.
Only now does she have a hard-won opportunity for ordinary people.
For ordinary people, and even for Hollywood's top stars, there are a bit of material comforts and treatment that they can't afford to enjoy.
All this is just because of his relationship with Abel.
It's because of Abel, to be exact.
After thinking about it for a few days, Anne extinguished her unrealistic hope of free love and dreams.
She started calling Abel again.
When Abel didn't contact her, he also put more attention on watching more movies and studying more acting skills.
During leisure breaks.
She will also be happy to enjoy the Centurion Black Card and the pleasure of shopping.
There are other super perks that you can enjoy.
Didn't you see that Jessica Alba, who is also a "Smith girl", has become the new Bond girl of "007"?
This kind of thing has never been out of reach for Hollywood practitioners of their level.
To her and Jessica, but casually came.
and Charlize Theron, who is also a "Smith girl".
It is said that she didn't even audition, and she directly became the heroine of the latest super production of "King of the World" James Cameron.
I don't know how many people in Hollywood envy this kind of treatment.
And he was thinking about it there, ridiculously thinking about what kind of free love he wanted.
If only other Hollywood women knew.
Anne thinks.
Those Bichi must be laughing at themselves like crazy.
She decided that it was better to listen to Abel with peace of mind.
Thinking of this, Anne took the script in her hand and slapped her palm fiercely.
"It's really my luck to meet you, and at the same time my misfortune!"
She thought to herself.
Thinking like this, she stood up, less confused.
At least I'll never do the stupid thing of looking for an audition again.
Since Hollywood has such a thing as a red sofa.
I already have one of the best red sofas.
So why go find other red sofas?
This red sofa on my own is unique in the world!
With such conditions, I went to the Actors' Guild to find an opportunity.
Anne felt that she was really the number one fool!
"Hey! Hi! Hey!"
Anne, who was scolding herself for being stupid, suddenly heard a hurried and fast voice from in front of her.
She looked up and saw her good friend in the crew, the supporting role in this "Princess Diaries".
Actress Heather, dressed in the costume of the crew, was running towards her quickly.
Heather was still screaming as she ran, looking very excited.
Anne holds the fastest update of the drama, please enter the browser -M.. COM- to
You! You!!"
Heather looked very agitated, her speech incoherent, and she could stutter.
"What the hell is going on?" Anne was curious.
I saw Heather "bang" and beat her chest twice, and she spoke coherently in pain.
"The super-rich man on the Forbes list! Our America's Super Smith! Your legendary gossip boyfriend who had an affair with you, that Abel Smith, came to our crew!!
After hearing Heather's words quickly and urgently, but still audible clearly.
Anne was stunned for a moment, then smiled in surprise.
"Annie, he's come to you. You told me last time that you weren't in that relationship. You are."
It seems that thumping the chest really works for Heather.
She was still a little stuttering just now, but now she is speaking very coherently.
It's a pity that coherence is useless.
Before Heather could finish her sentence, she saw Anne Hathaway.
With a super-fast speed that Heather had never seen before, he pulled his legs and ran to the place where Heather had just run.
Heather was stunned, then reacted and ran to where she had come from.
As she chased after Anne, she shouted from behind:
"Wait for me, you haven't answered my question yet. Are you and him boyfriend and girlfriend?"
Wait for Heather to catch up with Anne Hathaway.
Heather had seen her, and threw herself into the arms of a tall, muscular man.
Still being held by men.
Those beautiful lips that made Heather usually a little envious and jealous.
At this time, it is being gnawed by men.
"Wow~" Heather cried softly.
was immediately caught by Julie, another actor friend of Anne in the crew, to stop her from possible "wild talk" below.
"Don't talk nonsense." Julie whispered to Heather, "Anne's boyfriend is a big man we can't mess with!"
Heather quickly reacted and nodded gratefully.
Mainly Anne Hathaway on weekdays.
She enjoyed all aspects of the crew, although it was very over-spec development.
But her attitude has always been good.
Whether it's when acting, or when getting along with them, he is like an ordinary person.
This made Heather, who had a bit of a big mind, forget that this is Hollywood.
Forgot that Anne Hathaway, who can afford to enjoy these, makes Gary Marshall, a great director who has become famous, have to be polite to Anne.
In fact, she is an actor from a different world than herself.
At this time, I was reminded by Julie from England.
Heather suddenly remembered that the one who was gnawing on Anne Hathaway was the boss of MGM AA!
A super-rich man.
After a long time, the lips of the two had just parted.
Anne, whose head was still a little dizzy, excited and surprised.
She suddenly noticed a flash flashing on her left.
She had received paparazzi-related training, and suddenly woke up.
Anne Hathaway suddenly whispered:
"Honey, you're here. I'm so happy. It looks like someone was filming us just now, and we just filmed it like that, so it's okay, right?"
I heard Abel smile at her and say, "It's okay, Edward will take care of it."
At the time he said so.
Anne had already seen Abel's security captain, leading a few people to walk quickly in the direction of the flashing lights just now.
Then she heard her boyfriend say to director Gary Marshall, who was smiling next to her:
"I think your name seems to be Marshall, right?"
"Yes, sir. I'm Gary Marshall."
Anne only felt at this point.
Usually in the crew, except for themselves.
A director who has never been kind to anyone.
At the moment, it is as mild as the most ordinary waiter in a five-star hotel.
"Hello Marshall. Today I came to visit Anne. I want to take a day off for her, so I don't have a problem, right?"
"Of course, sir. Miss Hathaway's acting skills are very good, and her progress is the fastest, not to mention a day off, even if it is a week."
"It doesn't take a week. But in that case, Anne should take three days off."
"No problem~"
Just when Anne felt that Gary Marshall's attitude was really too good.
She heard a scream from the other side.
Anne wanted to look over, but was pressed on the head by Abel, and he took it away directly with a smile.
After the two left, at least a dozen bodyguards also left quickly.
In addition to the crew, there were only three people left at the scene.
One is Lincoln in Abel's four bodyguards, King Kong, and the other is a tall but gangster-looking black man.
And David Jones.
I saw that the black man who looked like a gangster pressed a staff member in the crew to the ground.
Lincoln had a video camera in his hand.
He tore out the negatives inside and looked at them, then took out a lighter and burned it directly.
After burning the negatives, Lincoln smashed the expensive camera directly to the ground, and then jumped on it and stomped on it.
While stepping on it, Lincoln also looked at him with fear and anger in the eyes around him, and the crew said:
"What do you see? Haven't you ever seen a gang seeking revenge? I'm Kuriffin from Pasadena Devil's Alley in Los Angeles, and this kid bought flour for fake money from us, and now we've got it!!
Hearing Lincoln say this, some of the onlookers wanted to say-
[Madefaq, didn't you just come after the super-rich man and with the super-rich? 】
[Why did you become a person from "Pasadena Devil's Alley" now?] 】
However, some locals in the crew know that there is really such a gang in Los Angeles.
The gang, based in Pasadena, Los Angeles, is a mostly black gang.
It is estimated to have 3-400 members, and it is one of the most powerful forces in the San Gabriel Valley.
And it has a long history, having had it in the forties of the last century.
Looking at Lincoln's fierce appearance, many people beat drums in their hearts.
I think maybe this guy is really a member of the famous "Pasadena Devil's Alley".
On the other hand, David Jones found director Gary Marshall.
As soon as he came up, David said to Gary Marshall:
"Hello, Mr. Marshall."
"Peter Steyr, one of the photographic assistants of The Princess Diaries."
"But he's also a special correspondent for the Happy Hollywood Daily."
"He's been here for a month now, and his main purpose isn't to work, it's to lurk here."
"Dear Mr. Marshall, do you understand what I mean?"
Gary Marshall still doesn't understand anything.
Peter Steyr, the crew member who was beaten, is true that he has a double identity.
But today's beating is probably because there are too many photos related to Anne Hathaway secretly taken in the crew.
This guy was especially crazy just now.
When Abel made love to Anne Hathaway, he forgot to turn off the flash and shoot.
That's why I'll be beaten up by the black guy in "Pasadena Devil's Alley".
"Understood. Sir."
The situation is stronger than people, not to mention that Gary Marshall is not familiar with Peter Steyr.
Peter Steyr was beaten up for something.
Gary Marshall smiled and said:
"I totally understand. Peter Steyr was fired by me this morning. behind
Anything he does has nothing to do with our crew!"
David Jones smiled, this is also a smart man.
This saved David a lot of trouble.
David smiled at Gary Marshall, and the man in the black suit gave him a shrewd and capable look, and walked away.
The blacks over there hammered Gary Marshall for a few more minutes.
Lincoln answered the phone from behind, and poor and hateful Peter Steyr stopped screaming.
"Oh oh oh ~ OK!"
Everyone saw the so-called black Kurifin, and answered the phone a few times.
This fierce black man shouted at the onlookers of the crew:
"Why don't you call the police right away? Call an ambulance at the same time? Do you really want to see him beaten to death by our "Pasadena Devil's Alley"?"
His fierce appearance made the surrounding crew not even dare to breathe.
The main thing is that this guy is wearing a set of body armor that looks very new.
Left and right pockets, these two guns are also inserted.
A pair of people,
You can do the appearance of a gangster elite killer.
In the crew, the director and producer did not speak.
The security personnel of the crew will only go up to find trouble when they are stupid.
Your monthly salary is only three or four thousand yuan, what kind of life are you playing!
Now that they see this black man shouting like this, naturally no one dares to call the police.
In addition, this is probably related to Peter Steyr, and most of the crew members are not familiar with each other.
Fortunately, at this time, Gary Marshall stood up and softly instructed the assistant director:
"Call the police, and call an ambulance by the way."
The assistant director was stunned for a moment, and instead of looking at Gary Marshall first, he looked at the fierce black man first.
They still have guns in their hands.
What if I am targeted when I make a phone call?
The assistant director saw the black man glaring at him, and said:
"Look, hurry up and call the police!"
The assistant director hurriedly called and called the police.
Over there, Lincoln was sure that the call to the police was out.
He nodded to Peter Steyr, to the other black man who was pressed to the ground.
"Dude, I'll leave it to you. Rest assured, everything will be fine."
"Hey~ What's that?" The black man spoke a little rappingly: "I go in at least three or four times a year."
"Man, as long as you don't forget what you promised~ Don't worry, everything will be fine~"
Lincoln gestured to the black man, and it was the special gangster gesture of "Pasadena Devil's Alley".
Then one of the four King Kongs, one last look at Gary Marshall.
The director smiled at him, and Lincoln was stunned and smiled at the other party.
Then he turned and walked away.
More than an hour later.
The police arrived.
After Lincoln was gone, the black man, who was idle and idle, beat Peter Steyr again.
Immediately surrendered with his hands raised in the air.
Then the ambulance came.
Peter Steyr, who had been taught a hard lesson, finally got into the ambulance.
It's Peter Steyr, who can't even speak clearly after being beaten.
When I was carried into the ambulance by a male nurse and a doctor, I struggled.
Looks like he refuses to take an ambulance to the hospital.
This scene fell in the eyes of the surrounding Americans, and everyone could understand it.
In the U.S., if you don't have the money to buy a good health insurance.
It's best not to take an ambulance, even if you're dying.
Because the bill afterwards may really scare you to death.
