The door to the audition room opened and closed, and Adrian stood in front of the camera. His dark brown, almost black, mid-length hair had been specially styled, and he looked messy with a hint of yuppie.
Mary-Gail dislikes this hairstyle as much as she disliked the Beatles when she was young. But she remained calm and said, "Let's get started." Adrian and his assistant began to play together.
Susan Levin remembered the actor, and Downey mentioned it to her a few times. The acting skills are okay, above the standard, but the quality is determined by comparison. Compared with Martin Davis, who performed the best before, it is obviously a notch lower.
The audition ended quickly. After the actor left, Susan asked again as usual: "How is he?" Mary didn't like it, but she wouldn't say directly: "Just average, at the level of a normal person." These words deepened Susan's similar views, and she Nodding slightly: "Notify him tomorrow to play the role of Dalton." Robert Downey Jr. had just successfully proposed, so Susan was more considerate of him, and the marginal supporting role had little impact on the project.
Mary wrote it down. The audition continued, and by the time everyone was done auditioning, Jason Shawn did not show up.
Susan was nominally third in line, but was actually the producer in charge of the crew. She directly ordered Mary: "Disqualify him from auditioning." The audition for the character Nick Jones was over, and Susan would no longer audition alone for someone. .
The door to the audition room is closed, where the casting team holds a meeting. After playing all the audition videos, Susan had a slightly gentle attitude towards her work and asked, "Martin Davis, do you have any objections?" The people in the casting team were not stupid, and they would not speak up even if they had any objections.
Susan looked at the time and said to Mary: "The official notification will be tomorrow." The meeting was short. After the meeting, Mary and Susan walked together and asked: "The audition in the afternoon?" Susan waved her hand: "I won't participate, you can play other roles." Make the decision." Mary is an old man who has been in the industry for decades. Ability is not an issue. Even if she is thoughtful, the people she selects will meet the basic requirements.
The two separated, and Mary returned to the office, found out the contact information, and made a phone call: "In the same place tonight, the person I asked you to find was found? Very good." Thinking of the black guy with dyed blonde hair, Mary was in a good mood. , in the past few years, no one has worked as hard as he did to help her sweeten her.
.........In the parking lot of Warner Studios, Martin watched the police lights flashing and the ambulance arriving. The familiar fat man was carried into the ambulance by the emergency personnel.
Thomas knew him: "It seems like a client of the company." Martin had met him more than once on the set of "Entourage": "Is Adrian's follower called Bonnie or Tony?" He felt that something was unusual: "Go and find out what's going on. ." Thomas said: "I am your agent." Martin's transfer words came casually: "It may be related to the audition."
"It won't happen again!" Thomas emphasized, and went to find someone to inquire about the situation, and then made a few more calls.
He came back quickly and said to Martin: "It was really related to the audition. Tony and Paris Hilton's boyfriend Jason Sean had a car collision, and the two got into a fight because of a quarrel... No, Sean to be precise. He beat Tony and was taken away by the police. Tony seemed to be seriously injured." Martin, who was it, decided it was not an accident and shook his head: "What a mess!" Thomas didn't hear clearly: "What?" Martin said: "The competition is so fierce."
"Just get used to it." Thomas understood what he meant: "The circle of male actors is a little bit worse, but the female actors are more exciting." Martin mentioned Jason Sean at the time, with the intention of letting Adrian and the others focus on Jason. Regarding Jason Shawn, I didn’t expect Adrian to value Jason Shawn so much.
Thinking of Adrian, who was smiling in front of him, Martin's back went cold: "I have a sense of crisis." That guy was a scumbag, and he asked Thomas: "Adrian is very valued in the company?" Thomas said: "Generally speaking. He is one of the new ones." Martin considered whether to shake people, took out his cell phone, and found that it had not been turned on after turning it off. He quickly turned on the cell phone, and soon received three missed call text message reminders.
Just as I was about to call back, the bell rang. Martin answered the call, but Bruce's voice was still so unpleasant: "You stinking piece of shit, you make people uneasy when I'm not looking for you, and I can't get through the phone when I'm looking for you."
"Because I can smell your stink in Los Angeles!" Martin retorted sharply: "The smell of shit on your brother came from Atlanta to Los Angeles!" Bruce said: "I am in Los Angeles!" Martin was surprised: "What? Boo, are you in Los Angeles?" Bruce said: "North Hollywood Valley Boulevard, the parking lot in front of the Bank of America, within half an hour of you, I will rob the Bank of America, and then tell those *** that you are the mastermind behind the scenes. Let's do it." Martin hung up the phone and called Thomas: "Drive to the Bank of America in North Hollywood, hurry up!"
"I'm not your driver!" Thomas muttered silently, got into the driver's seat, and pulled Martin straight to North Hollywood.
Arriving at the parking lot in front of the Bank of America, Martin saw Bruce at a glance. Bruce got off a Ford pickup truck: "It looks like you're doing well."
"It's not like you, who needs to sell his butt." Before Bruce could become a civilized person, Martin changed the subject: "You drove here from Georgia?" Bruce shrugged: "After 911, air traffic control was too strict and it was easy to leave traces." He pointed his chin at Thomas: "Who is this? Your new little brother?" Thomas thought to himself, where did this country bumpkin come from? He was full of foul words and smelled bad.
"My agent, Thomas." Martin briefly introduced: "Thomas, this is Lao Bu, my brother, a professional scavenger." He specially added: "Someday you kill someone and it's difficult to deal with it, just call Lao Bu , as long as you pay enough, he will help you handle it properly." Thomas nodded to Bruce and said to Martin: "I won't disturb you anymore." Martin reminded: "If there is news from the crew, please notify me immediately ." Thomas got in the car and left quickly.
Martin got into the passenger seat of the Ford pickup truck and pointed to the apartment to the north: "Go there." At the same time, he reminded: "Put your guy away. This is California, which has strict gun control, not Georgia." Bruce said: "I was stationed in California when I was in the army. I have a gun license and a concealed gun license here. Who am I? I will not give the police a chance to empty the magazine." The car drove into the parking lot, Martin He helped carry the luggage and led Lao Bu into the apartment building.
Bruce went up to the second floor and curled his lips: "I thought you were living in a big villa in Malibu or Beverly, and I came here specifically to join you." Martin opened the door and said, "You can stay here with me for the time being. You can choose any of the two bedrooms." One." Considering that Louise might come to sing when she returns to Los Angeles, she finds it very exciting after all: "When the apartment building becomes vacant, I will rent one for you." Bruce threw down the suitcase and sat on the sofa: "You don't want to Do you want to stay with me forever?" Martin opened the refrigerator, took out a can of beer and threw it to him: "I can smell the stench on your body thousands of kilometers away. Old Boo, there is another key question. When you go through the back door, let me Listen?" Bruce opened the beer and took a big sip: "Okay, I don't care." Martin also took a can of beer and asked: "Why did you come to Los Angeles all of a sudden?" Bruce simply said: "Go to a place in eastern Mexico. I'm not afraid of the traffickers' blacklist, but I'm not afraid of being shot in the face, but what if I'm blacklisted? Vincent treats me well, and I can't implicate him."
"I'm sorry." Martin understood what was going on as soon as he heard it: "My bad things have affected you." Bruce was not polite to Martin at all: "So, I can only come to you." Martin said: "You will be in the future. He is my full-time manager.”
"It sounds high-end and classy." Bruce asked: "What do you mainly do?" Martin thought for a while: "Driving, carrying bags, playing with me, and guarding my back." Bruce was surprised: "You use the Vaseline I gave you. ?" Martin went to look through Bruce's bag and planned to take out the gun: "Old Boo, do you want to see God in advance?" Bruce snorted coldly: "God is a black man and will not meet racists."
"You came just in time, I met a bad person..." Martin told him what happened before in detail.
"Don't worry, I won't let him blow you up." Bruce sighed: "I left one quagmire, turned around and jumped into another quagmire." Martin looked at the time: "It's noon, let's go, go out for lunch. I’ll take you around Los Angeles in the afternoon.”
"Go to the Sacred Valley?" Bruce was actually very curious: "I've always wanted to see with my own eyes how those films were shot." Martin asked: "Observe it live?" Bruce shrugged.
The two went out and happened to meet Antonio. The big fat man rolled down the stairs slowly like a ball. When he saw Bruce, he asked Martin: "Is he a producer?" Bruce said first: "Yes, I am a producer in Hollywood." Antonio patted him. Martin's arm: "Go to the hyenas early, don't wait until you can't stand it anymore." Martin glared at Lao Bu and looked at the landlord: "He likes fat people, so I brought him here specially." Antonio was shocked and turned around. Going upstairs: "Don't mess around, I have a gun!" Martin said: "Who doesn't have a gun?" He was worried that the landlord's heart could not bear the physical pressure: "Just kidding, he is my friend, Anthony, you There is a house available here, help him save it." Antonio turned back, his trembling chest was bigger than that of Jessica: "No problem, if there is a house available, I will notify you first." Martin and Bruce Went downstairs, found a place to have lunch, and headed to the San Fernando Valley together.
Halfway through, Martin called Jenna Jameson. Her company had been officially established after the New Year and was filming its first film. They were welcome to visit.
In the studio in the Sacred Valley, Martin and Bruce put on their crew IDs and came to the filming location. Jenna Jameson acted as the director herself, and when the actress was out of breath from too much time, the director personally left the performance.
