High Score Movie Life

Chapter 43 Adventure
Seeing the hopeful look on the girl's face, He Shen suddenly softened.

"What's your name?"

He Shen's inquiry made the girl overjoyed, and she immediately replied: "Ann Danlaw!"

"Why do you want to be a stage actor? Do you like musicals?"

"Actually, I have nothing to eat now... Of course, I also like musicals very much." The girl stuttered a little, but she spoke very calmly.

He Shen paused for a moment, and then replied to the girl in the windbreaker: "I have a brokerage company. Although it has not been established for a long time, it already has two well-known actors. You should have heard of their names."

"Barbara Stanwyck and Croday Corbett."

"One is working with Paramount and the other is working with Warner Bros."

When the girl heard these two names, she was immediately surprised and said: "Oh! I have heard of them."

"Mr. Button, are you going to sign me?"

"Of course, otherwise why would I bother talking nonsense with you!"

After the girl received a positive answer, she immediately raised her head and clenched her fists hard, her face twitching with excitement, and there were tears in the corners of her eyes.

"·Go and say goodbye to them, and then go to the company with me. We need to sign an agreement. There will be a private party next to the White Avenue in the evening. I will introduce you to the big guys on Broadway."

He Shen stood aside with a cane and watched them say goodbye one by one. This society is like this, realistic and cruel!
In the evening, Miss Danlaw attended the dinner wearing a company-issued evening dress.

"Mr. Barton, is it necessary to dress like this?"

He Shen asked the girl to hold his arm, and then greeted the people at the banquet. Hearing the complaints in his ears, he couldn't help but remind him: "An! You must learn to adapt."

"Also, please pay attention to the necklace around your neck, it's worth $2!"

Miss Danlaw clutched her chest and exclaimed. She just thought it was a fake and pulled hard.

Seeing her cautious look, He Shen was satisfied.

man!You must learn to be in awe in order to be down-to-earth.

At this time, a short and fat white man came over from the opposite side, stretched out his hand to greet Heshen: "Mr. Barton, my name is Carl, a Hollywood director. I heard that you want to enter the film industry."

"Don't take it seriously when I hear it. I only have one agency now." He Shen said politely.

The fat man was very discerning. When he saw the beautiful girl next to He Shen, he immediately understood and said, "Does the person next to him also belong to your company? It's really amazing."

He Shen patted the back of the woman's hand and said, "She needs her works to prove herself."

"Just in time, I have a work in hand that requires a lady wearing size 4 clothes. Of course, to get this position, I need a little investment from you." The fat man is very good at getting things done, and he is very shameless.

"I used to invest alone without a partner. Director Karl, can you do it?"

The fat man smiled and said apologetically: "Then we can only wait for the next opportunity."

"I think it won't be too long next time. When you are desperate, you can come to me!" After saying that, He Shen handed him a business card, and then led the beauty into the crowd.

He had just recognized this fat man as the unscrupulous director in King Kong.

As the economic crisis caused a large number of theaters to close, and audiences had to turn their attention to movies, the film industry has developed rapidly in the past few years.

The fat man took this into consideration and came to Broadway to deceive the theater owners.

After the banquet ended, Miss Danlaw stood on the side of the road and complained to Heshen: "Mr. Barton, I don't like this kind of occasion. Can I refuse in the future?"

"Please call me Benjamin! You can do whatever you want from now on. I'm just letting you see the upper class society, and I'm not asking you to join it."

He Shen is very reasonable, because everyone has their own personality. Only when you are the most different can others see you, especially actors.There are a lot of them backstage in theaters like those that are the same.

She didn't expect Mr. Button to be so considerate, and she suddenly felt so happy, like an angel spreading its wings to her.

To her, the white light in front of her eyes was too dreamy and unreal.

After getting in the car, He Shen took out a bunch of keys and handed them to the girl, "This is the dormitory assigned to you by the company. Don't go back to your previous residence. It's not safe there."

The girl nervously took the key, opened her red lips slightly and refused: "Ba...Mr. Benjamin, you must know that I don't like to accept favors from others, so..."

Before the girl could finish speaking, He Shen immediately interrupted: "This house is located in Long Island, which is a wealthy area. It is very convenient for you to socialize where you live, and this car is specially responsible for picking you up."

When the car stopped outside Changdao Villa, He Shen got out of the car first, and then helped Miss Danlao open the car door.

"An! Go in by yourself and see if this house suits you. If it doesn't suit you, call me."

After saying that, He Shen turned around and was about to get in the car.

"Mr. Benjamin, wait a minute, I'm not ready now, and I may invite you in later." The girl spoke hesitantly, that kind of thing was really hard to say.

It's just that her thinking was wrong, and He Shen did have other plans, but he wouldn't have such thoughts about her.

"Don't think too much, I have someone I love, and I will be loyal to her in this life."

Ann Danlaw watched the car leave, and a desire suddenly arose in her heart. She wanted to know more about this little old man and what kind of story he had.

A few days later, Heshen received a call from Karl. At that time, he was hiring a dance and vocal teacher for Ann Danlaw.

"Mr. Barton, there is a new project now. As long as you invest, you will be the only investor." The fat man's voice was breathless on the phone. It seemed that he was in very bad condition.

He Shen reluctantly agreed: "Okay, come to my company now and let's discuss the contract."

When the white man went upstairs, Heshen handed him the contract he had prepared.

“Remember to sign after reading it!”

After speaking, he drank his coffee by himself.

Karl was obviously desperate, so he flipped through it casually and signed his name.

Then said: "Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

After Heshen collected the contract, Fatty Karl immediately said: "Mr. Barton, thank you for your trust in me. You didn't ask anything from the moment you walked in."

He Shen chuckled: "I'm afraid you didn't read the contract you signed carefully!"

Being called fat doesn't bother him at all, because he can do anything.

"Now tell me about your plan and the script actors."

The fat man's eyes widened and he started to talk nonsense, "This is an adventure story. There are lonely heroes, heroes saving beauties, savage tribes, primitive jungles..."

"Wait, Karl, speak human words, or get out!" He Shen didn't want to listen to his ramblings.

"Okay, I got a map that records a small island that has never appeared in the world. It is a mythical place. It is a primitive world and a relic of civilization. The spectacular scene is unparalleled."

The fat man was so good at deceiving people that He Shen almost believed him.
