Best Actor

Chapter 108: Good luck?

    I don't know when, Frederick came to the door of Anna's office and leaned against the glass door with his arms crossed, looking rather unhappy.

    "Sean told me that "The Genius Ripley" would be a great movie, and I didn't believe it, but it turned out that I was wrong." He said , and walked in.

    "Do you know what your problem is, Anna?" Frederick walked over to the desk and pointed around, "When you started sitting in this office, you didn't know Unconsciously, I have become conservative, I don’t dare to go head-to-head, I don’t dare to try my best to win and gamble, you just want to keep the current performance.”

    It is a very rare scene. They met several times before, and there was no time when they were not tit-for-tat, but at this moment, although Frederick was rude, he was very serious. There is no doubt that they have a leg.

    "I don't think you're guiding me on how I do things, Fred. And frankly, if you didn't happen to run into Sean, and if it wasn't for Sean's persistence, you wouldn't either. I have the current results." Anna also said rudely, and also did not have the aggressive taste that she used to be.

    But as soon as she finished speaking, she closed her mouth, and a depressed look flashed across her face. In a sense, these words were for Frederick's first Annotate in one sentence.

    Frederick didn't speak, just stood there with arms crossed and waited, after more than ten minutes, Anna sighed and looked at Sean: "Okay, I I will contact Lynch and let Naomi get in touch as soon as possible. However, if it doesn't work, I can only say regret, and it's best not to conflict with the schedule of "The Lord of the Rings"."

    Speaking of this, Sean is not easy to open his mouth, although he really wants to say that even if there is a conflict, he must make time.

    "Thank you, Anna, that's it." Sean nodded, gave Frederick a look, and walked out of the office.

    After walking out for a while, he turned around again: "What are you doing here, Fred?"

     

    "So, you treat me as a personal item?" Sean stabbed him half-jokingly.

    "Don't say that, Sean, you know, you are my client, no broker doesn't care about his client." Frederick explained, and then put on a look of grievance "You should say hello to me before you come, such as sending a text message or something, so that I can cooperate with what you have to do."

    Thinking of his previous performance, Sean didn't care anymore: "Okay, but you came very quickly."

     "Of course, no matter what happens here, I will know immediately." The agent raised his eyebrows proudly, but immediately confessed: "Okay, I see Galen And Sanders, especially Sanders, that frivolous look is really impressive."

    "Shouldn't it be Galen? I thought he was more oriental. Also, don't speak ill of them in front of me, Fred, they're all my friends, My brother." Sean said half-warningly.

    "Okay, let's not talk about it - Galen is oriental in appearance, but unfortunately, I am face blind to Asians, and now I can tell Bruce Lee and Jack Chen clearly ." Frederick shrugged, "Okay, let's talk about the next audition, just as you are free."

    After the Golden Globes, as Frederick expected, while most of the media focused on the winners, there were also some reporters concerned about the rising star Sean.

    "The 57th Golden Globe Awards have come to an end, "American Beauty" won the best director and best film as expected, but some people are happy and some people are disappointed, as the most popular during this time. Concerned newcomers, Sean Tang was like two people before the end of the awards dinner and before the beginning..." The reporter of the "New York Post" wrote, with two pictures.

    One is a standard photo before the dinner, where reporters are allowed to take a meeting, standing in front of a billboard with the Golden Globes logo, smiling; and the other is after the dinner, Sean from When he came out of the hotel, he waved his hand and seemed to block the camera. With such a comparison, the credibility of the report will naturally increase, although Sean was swiping his forehead hair when he took the photo.

    I have to say that these guys are very good at grasping the angle, and although other media reported it, they didn't want them to be so malicious. It seems that the "New York Post" is really arguing with Sean up.

    But in any case, Frederick's goal has been achieved. After the Golden Globe Awards, there are print media reports - the Internet media is not yet mature, although there are "Witch Blair" 》 This kind of film is successful by virtue of Internet hype, but the paper media is more authoritative and well-known.

    In this way, coupled with the recommendation of the casting director, Sean successfully participated in the next round of auditions for "Pearl Harbor". It's interesting to say, from his debut to now, except for the first audition, all other auditions are... not very formal.

    "Everybody Loves Raymond" is just when Reece needs an actor who can speak Italian; "Friends" is Reese's unwilling to admit defeat and recommends him to the past; "Genius Ripley" is Ming Dynasty Guerra wanted to put pressure on Miramax to get it out; "Death is Coming" was recommended by the agent, and then the director and producer directly made the decision; "The Lord of the Rings" was exchanged with Peter Jackson; "Thunderbolt" Baby is Drew and Cameron playing; Pearl Harbor is a little more formal, but also inserted after the second round.

    "Is this a kind of exceptionalism?" When driving to the audition site, Sean asked his best friend a little sarcastically after saying the above.

    "Of course, you are always so good. Without your leadership in the 8th grade, we couldn't have easily dealt with Galen's father. In high school, the basketball team may not win, if you say you are an exception, it must be an exception." Sanders laughed.

    Gallen, who was driving, just said, "It would be better if it wasn't so far-fetched."

    Well, from here, you can see the difference in their personalities. Sanders always has something to say, and it is absolutely unambiguous that he should show it off. Galen is somewhat reserved. When encountering such topics, he always calmly reminds him not to be too arrogant, and at the same time, he is somewhat tactful.

    Anyway, it's a pleasure to have them around to help, and I don't know how Neil is doing now.

    The audition for "Pearl Harbor" was in a second-story building on 56th Street in Burbank, which seemed to be dedicated to auditions, after all Burbank has many studios based here , Disney, Warner, Pixar, etc.

     Greeted Galen and Sanders, and Shawn was escorted by the staff into the lounge. This was a fairly spacious room with a simple layout. Two couches with potted plants around, then two cabinets and a few chairs. There is a door on the right side of the entrance. Needless to say, I know it leads to the audition room, and sitting on the couch not far from the door, a young man who looks like 25 to 30 years old is looking down at something. .

    Obviously, he was also here for the audition. Sean wanted to say hello, but the other party glanced at him and then turned his body slightly, so he gave up the idea, He sat down on the other sofa and began to recall the script. The almost 7-page script given by the crew has basically been memorized, and he has also figured out the character of Leif, but it is precisely because of this that he is less optimistic about this movie.

    Although the script given is not long, and it also describes the life and death of the last two male protagonists, he still smells a bit of a dog-blood love triangle. Just kidding, even if you want to match "Titanic", you don't need to add love elements to war movies, right? When the time comes, will the audience go to the cinema to watch the war scenes and the friendship between the comrades in blood and fire, or will they watch the messy love scene between two male and one female protagonists?

    As a disaster film, "Titanic" has a natural love factor in it, but which excellent war movie has love as the main line? And it's a dog blood love triangle? If "Saving Private Ryan" had a love scene, would it still be liked by so many people? Of course, some people may say that this is just a guess, but Sean, with his intuition, feels that this is certain.

    Just deal with it a little bit. Sean thought so in his heart. If it wasn't for Frederick's efforts, he really didn't want to waste time. The more information he got in touch, the less optimistic he would be about this movie.

    Seems to be a little pampering Fred. He thought so again. Maybe I should take the time to find an opportunity to have a good chat with him last time.

    At this moment, the door of the audition room opened, and a man with a smile came out. Sean looked over subconsciously, and the other party just happened to look over. Can not help but stunned. It was none other than Ben Affleck, who had spoken ill of Sean at Naomi's and her friends' party before "The Genius Ripley" came out.

    "Wherever you go, you will meet nasty guys." After the actor who had been waiting here before entered, he immediately said this, without concealing his disgust at all.

      polite?

    "Yeah, it's really unfortunate to see you come out of it." Sean said with a smile, and then added without waiting for him to speak: "It's a pity, I didn't go back to San Francisco."

    Affleck's expression changed immediately. The reason why he treated Sean with that kind of attitude was that the other party not only did not leave in a daze, but also Relying on "The Genius Ripley", which has been well received and has become the most popular new star during this period, it is no less than a slap in the face for Affleck, who has said those words before. Now, when the other party mentioned it again, of course he would be annoyed.

    The strange thing is that Affleck didn't say any more evil words, his eyes swept back and forth between the door and Sean a few times, and then he showed a strange smile: "You come for the "Pearl" "Hong Kong" audition? So good luck."
