Chapter 1 April st

Anson, traveled through time.

One second, he was on the set taking the place of an actor for a lighting test. He heard an exclamation of "be careful" in his ears, and then his vision went black and there was a sharp pain.

The next second, he appeared in a square bathroom box and fainted next to the toilet.

After sitting on the toilet seat for a full fifteen minutes, Anson sorted out the situation from the chaotic memory of the original owner. He came from the Magic City in 2023 to Los Angeles in 2000——

It’s April 1st, but it’s not an April Fool’s joke.

Anson-Wood, the original owner came to a production company to audition because of Darren-Star's recommendation, but the specifics of the work, the role, and the situation were all blurred in his brain. It was completely empty, with really no useful information.

I lowered my head and glanced at the Nokia candy bar phone, which was "the most lethal weapon in history" in my hand. The weight of it falling heavily in my palm was particularly real.

Yea.

There was a sound of pushing the door open in the bathroom, and the ongoing conversation cut from outside to inside.

"...Didn't the audition work at Central-Casting end two days ago? I thought the filming of episode 21 would be next Monday. Yesterday, I heard that there was a quarrel on the set, saying that the filming time was too long. Come on, now the audition is dragging on again, what’s going on?”

"Haha, if you are an actor recommended by Jennifer Aniston on the phone, you can also audition two days late."

"Oh, Jennifer, it's Jennifer again! This is not the first time. If other actors find out, there will probably be another quarrel."

"Wait, it shouldn't be possible, right? Aren't she and Brad already planning to get married? I thought she had given up those habits! Could it be that the recent scandals and gossip circulating on the set are about him?"

"As you can see, he didn't go to the central audition at all, but was received by David himself. If the producer could receive him in person, wouldn't the answer come out? To be honest, I think today's audition was just a formality. "

"Ah, no wonder!"

"what happened?"

"Didn't you hear? There was a quarrel in the writing team yesterday. I heard that the top screenwriter and David closed the office door and pointed and cursed. The atmosphere has been tense recently, and they almost got into a fight yesterday. Get up, it turns out David was blocking the gun for Jennifer."

"No, no, no, how did I hear that he was recommended by Darren?"

"Darren? Which Darren?"

"Darren Star?"

"Oh, that Darren."

"You haven't heard about that rumor, right?"

"What, is Darren the pretty boy's sugar daddy?"

"No, he's Darren's godson."

"Oh, another Emma Roberts? Jesus Christ, Hollywood is running out of room for all these skinny-headed connections."

The thin door panel has no sound insulation effect at all, or to be more precise, the enclosed space of the bathroom is simply an amphitheater, with its own surround effect, and the rustling conversations penetrate into the ears without missing a word.

The amount of information is a bit large.

Darren Star, Anson thought this name sounded familiar just now, but now he finally remembered it.

As a producer, he launched popular TV series such as "90210" and "Across the Sea" in the s, and reached the peak of his career with "Sex and the City" at the turn of the century.

For young audiences, the most familiar one should be "Emily in Paris" he produced in 2020.

So, this work in which the producer is named David and Jennifer Aniston is a member of the crew is——

"Friends"!
I have heard rumors before that the crew of "Friends" is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface. Jennifer Aniston, who became famous with the series, has a special status and can even influence the decisions of the producers. Now it seems that it is not groundless.

So Darren Star recommended the show to his friend David Crane, the producer of "Friends," and got him an audition for a role in the series, but this audition The opportunity caused waves on the crew, intensifying conflicts between the producer and screenwriter teams, and even brewing a storm. In the end, David took control of the situation:
Insist that the original owner come to audition today.

Aha!

So, what should we do next?
Please tell me, what should I do if I take the elephant out of the refrigerator?
Now, he is going to do this——

The first step is to open the door.

The second step is to leave the bathroom.

Just do what you said, stop the posture of the thinker statue, stand up and tidy up your clothes, sweep the white powder scattered around into the toilet and flush it away. The conversation outside was immediately cut off by the sound of flushing water. Anson did not hesitate, He immediately opened the compartment door.

The air is very quiet.

The three people standing in front of the urinal turned around and looked at the source of the sound. They were stunned and their jaws were dislocated. They obviously did not expect this scene.

Frank-Simons' brain stopped for a moment, and he subconsciously wanted to scold and take control of the situation preemptively.

However, when I saw the man in front of me, my voice got stuck in my throat——

Those deep and clear blue eyes are like the Aegean Sea filled with sunshine on a midsummer August afternoon. The sparkling brightness is filled with a bit of laziness and refreshment, making people relax involuntarily and easily catch the gaze of others. Hold on tight.

It was obviously this man who was "eavesdropping" and was completely defeated in a one-on-three fight, but this man exuded a kind of calmness and calmness. There was no trace of panic, and he immediately put all the pressure on the three of them. Then they realized that the current situation didn't seem good.

They were caught on the spot gossiping. The scolding voice could not come out.

then.

The man walked with his long and slender legs and arrived in front of the sink in just two or three steps. He was at least 6.2 feet (188 centimeters) tall by visual inspection. The pressure on his face made the three men in front of the toilet even after a short distance. Feeling uncomfortable, he involuntarily took a small step back.

"what!"

Frank only felt a warmth coming from his calf, and his pants were soaked.

A turn.

"Ah! Ahhh!"

Shooting everywhere.

The ground was in mess.

Frank looked down at the pants where he was drawing the map, and almost couldn't catch his breath. When he turned his head, he just saw the tall and straight figure passing by, and he didn't even realize that he had moved half a step inside, letting him Open channels.

When he came to his senses, there was a moment of suffocation, and a chuckle came from his ears.

"Caution: Slippery."

Frank: You!
His face turned red and his fists were clenched, but before he could raise them, the man's figure had disappeared.

Outside.

There was a mess of foul language behind him. Even though he couldn't see anything, he could still describe the chaos inside. Anson let out a breath.

The elephant has left the refrigerator, so what’s next?

Emma Roberts?
Her aunt is Hollywood superstar Julia-Roberts. It is because of her aunt that she got acting opportunities at a young age and entered Hollywood early.

And the same goes for Anson Wood.

Darren Star is not Anson's godfather, but he is a good friend of the Woods. It can be said that he watched him grow up, learned that Anson was interested in acting, and took the initiative to introduce Anson to audition opportunities. Anyway, Darren Star It was just a phone call away, and today's opportunity came about.

In his previous life, he was an ordinary worker on the crew. He stood behind the camera and watched the actors under the spotlight, surrounded by cheers and applause. The income he earned from one day's work was a figure that he could not touch in his entire life. He only Being able to stand in the mud and look up at the stars.

But he didn't expect that now he would actually have the opportunity to go from behind the scenes to the stage, not as a substitute, but to stand in front of the camera as his own identity? And when I return to the age of eighteen, a new and bright future opens before my eyes, everything starts anew.

He stopped slightly, adjusted his direction, and walked towards the corridor without hesitation.

It was only then that Anson had the opportunity to take a good look at his surroundings——

With long and narrow corridors, messy props, broken lighting, and staff coming and going without touching the ground, the film and television production company is just like other companies, there is nothing special about it.

At the end of the corridor, there is a glass-walled office with all the blinds drawn down. There is another separate desk at the door. The desktop is filled with various documents and three landline phones.

Judging from experience, that should be the office of the senior leader, but at this time there was no one in front of the secretary's desk, and the staff who came and went didn't mind. They just left the documents in their hands on the table and then turned around and left. , Chaos also has its own way of operating.

Anson stepped forward and sat down on the seat against the wall opposite the secretary's desk. He collected his thoughts for a while and tried to awaken more information about the audition——

Since it’s an audition, what work and what role? Do you request audition footage in advance or do you prepare it yourself?
However, before his thoughts had time to unfold, the office door opened. Anson looked over reflexively, but no one came out. He just held the door handle and turned his back to the door and looked inside. An irritated voice cursed from inside.

"...What the hell are you kidding me?"

"Yes, I know, but..."

"I told them clearly that it was just a small role, but now they are changing the outline just for one role. Isn't this asking for trouble? A bunch of idiots. If the skylights are opened for filming next Monday, I will let them all take to the streets. beg."

"But, are you sure it doesn't matter? That's Darren Star, a casual little character..."

"What about Darren - hell - Star, this is my show, you know? NBC is not like HBO, where we are looking at the ratings every week, and you can just pick some unknown person to be a guest, If the ratings plummet, will you wipe my ass, or will Darren Star lick my ass?"

"David, now..."

"You let them continue to complete the script first. Get out! Get out, get out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man quickly left the office and closed the door of the room. Then there was a muffled banging sound inside, and the glass wall shook slightly.

The man turned around and saw Anson. He was about to speak, but he didn't expect that the door to the room opened again, and the horse face that was tanned by sunbathing and had some freckles poked out, his eyebrows were furrowed, and the anger still hadn't dissipated.

"Frank? Frank!"

"Where's Anson? When is the appointment? If he hasn't shown up yet, push it back half an hour. I need to make a few calls."

In the midst of rage, a figure slowly stood up, tall and elegant, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Good morning, Mr. Klein."

 Dear book friends and new entertainment authors, I beg you to collect them!
