Best Actor

    "It's very simple, I want to try to play the role of the whole movie by one person," Sean said to Frederick, sitting in the living room of his villa, "It's like "Death" Like The Illusion, the plot revolves entirely around the protagonist. But that movie is too simple, and Richard has some abilities, but after all, it is his first time as a director, so I want to work with more experienced people.”

    He pointed to the script on the coffee table, and continued with a very serious expression: "Although the script is not complete, we can all see that most of the time, the scene is limited to one In the phone booth, this gives the actor or leading actor a lot of room to play. And Joe Schumacher is also one of the well-known directors in Hollywood, I believe he can firmly control everything, so for me, it is A great opportunity."

    "Um..." Frederick dragged his voice, "Then you know, Schumacher is gay."

    Sean was stunned, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, his eyelids began to twitch, as if he had eaten a fly, and Sanders and Galen next to him snickered.

    "Okay, I'm joking," the agent raised his hands, "Although Schumacher is gay, he already has a long-term partner, so...well...don't worry."

    He made a gesture that looked like he was telling Sean to stop thinking about it, but that smirk really made him want to punch him in the nose.

    "You have to think about it, Sean, this character is at least 25 to 30 years old, even if you have the example of "The Genius Ripley" before, Schumacher will not necessarily enable you," Frederick put away his smile and said solemnly, "And the movie was invested by 20th Century Fox, and the producer was David Zucker. I really don't have much interaction with them."

    Although he seemed very serious, Sean and the others didn't think so, and they all showed their surprised expressions without concealment.

    "Is this guy sitting in front of us really Frederick?"

    "I don't know, I don't think he would speak to us in that tone."

    "Perhaps some monster was posing in front of us with his skin."

    "Enough, you guys," Frederick exclaimed annoyed, "do I look like a workaround?"

    "Yes, not at all."

    "Don't you always stand firm in your opinion?"

    "And no matter what others say, they will be against it at the first time, instead of considering whether it is justified."

    "Okay, Fred," Seeing that the joke was almost done, Sean got down to business, "You can't blame us, you know that during this period of time, every time we asked for something, you It is always the first objection, so we are deeply suspicious of your current attitude."

    "It should be me who said this," Frederick wiped his face dejectedly, "No matter what I say during this time, you all insist on your own opinion, since that's the case , do I have any other options besides agreeing?"

    Sean stared at him for a while, then turned around: "Are you really sure the person sitting in front of me is my agent?"

    Laughs again.

    "Try it, Fred," Sean said at last, "just like when we were in Ripley's leading role, it doesn't matter what the outcome is, as long as we Do your best."

    "I see," Frederick said without further ado, "I'll arrange everything."

    It was 8:30 when I came out of Sean's villa, but Frederick didn't show any signs of fatigue, and he called again soon after getting in the car: "Alice Look up David Zucker's phone number for me and text me. Which David Zucker? Of course the producer of the script you allowed Sean to take away yesterday! Give it to me right away!"

    Hang up the phone dissatisfied, Frederick sighed half annoyed and half depressed, Alice is still very competent as an assistant, but the problem is that guy Sean... He and Sanders' relationship is not very good, but he has a lot of chat with Galen, and he has learned some of Sean's previous records from him.

      Barrymore, how many are there already? Maybe Cameron Diaz and Lucy Liu were among them, and even flew with the three heroines of "Charlie's Angels".

    Who said it was impossible, that kid just made some achievements, and he flew the three heroines of "Friends", let alone now. In addition, there is an ambiguous Jordana Brewster, who seems to have eaten it long ago. I have to say that this kid is very good at dealing with women.

    In this case, he can hook Alice by hooking his fingers, right? Even if Alice was three or four years older than him. In that case, Frederick will have a very headache, and no agent will allow the client to have an ambiguous relationship with his assistant, even if it is just a one-night stand, no one can say whether the assistant will reveal something in bed.

    Even though they were friends in private, even though Frederick believed in Sean's character, they were still essentially an employment relationship, so sometimes there would be conflicts of interest. When you don’t know the bottom line of the other party, be tolerant of each other and take a step back. It is the choice of many people. Once one party grasps the bottom line of the other party, it is very likely to cause conflicts and become irreconcilable.

    Fire her? Frederick thought so. But soon he shook his head again, let's see again, at least for now, there is no obvious trend for them, and the new assistant may not be as good at handling problems as she is.

    While he was talking, the phone vibrated, and Frederick, who had slowed down, picked it up and looked at it.

    "Hey David, how are you? It's me, Fred, Frederick Rogers, Endeavour's agent, have you forgotten me? You know a week ago we I also had a drink at Wesson's Bar." After repeated calls, the phone finally got through, and Frederick immediately asked with a smile. With the right time, laughter made it easier to get closer to each other.

    "Yes, that's right, that's Fred, how are you doing? How's the new movie going? Don't tell me it hasn't started yet." Frederick continued said jokingly.

    But he soon stopped laughing: "What script? Of course the script that was sent to Endeavour, "Sniper Phone Booth", that's the name, Larry Cohen's work... Wait, you Can you repeat... how is that possible?!"

    Frederick's eyes widened, and Zach, who was at a party at a friend's house, told him that he didn't let anyone send the script to Endeavour, this movie... It's true that the project hasn't started yet. Well, it is inaccurate to say that there is no project. Basically, the producer and the director have negotiated with the director, and the funds have been in place. The preliminary preparations will start immediately, but the discussion on the actor candidates has not yet begun.

    "You mean... your assistant would have made a mistake. The script should have been handed over to several responsible persons, but it was actually sent to each agency?" Frederick had to do everything in his power to keep his voice from sounding so weak.

    You really should fire that idiot! The agent had the urge to stop the car and walk to the side of the road, holding the thick tree trunk and slamming it. If the idiot asked a little more, then the **** script would not have been sent to Endeavour, nor would it have been sent to him, and it would not have been seen by Sean, and he would not have been running around for it!

    Of course, this was all a momentary idea, Frederick, who had adjusted his frustration, then laughed again: "It seems that my luck is very good, the first to discover this script How about the value of it? If you have time, how about a chat?"

    "The rest of the script has been withdrawn, and the film has not yet started preparations, so I hope you will not reveal it for the time being." After the meeting, Zach's first sentence was this.

    Frederick smelled bad from it, and the other party agreed to meet probably just for this, not for the actor. Even so, a fighting spirit spontaneously surged in his heart. Although it was only a little to two years before he got along with Sean, he was infected to some extent. When he encountered a problem, the first thing he thought of was to overcome and transcend rather than avoid it.

    As Sean said before, no matter what the result is, as long as you do your best, there is nothing to regret. Didn't they rely on this belief to create miracles? So, even if Frederick doesn't approve of Sean competing for this role, it's still the only thing that must be won at this moment.

    "No problem, it's a reasonable request," Frederick replied with a smile, "Then, now to talk about our business, you think it's up to my client Sean Tang How about playing the male lead?"

    Zach and Schumacher did not speak, just exchanged glances, so the manager still captured the stunned look in their eyes.

    Why, they didn't think about it? Frederick is a little weird. Think about it carefully, well, in addition to Sean, there are a few of their clients who are suitable for other roles, and they don't think it's normal in the past. He comforted himself like this, then looked at them with an inquiring look, without explaining any further, just pretending to be waiting for an answer.

    "If I remember correctly..." After a while, Schumacher coughed and said, "Fred, can I call you that? Okay, Fred, if I don't If I remember correctly, Sean Tang is only 20 years old this year, right? And what I need is a man who is at least 25 years old, or even close to 30 years old. Except for the first time, this man is already married, and he is very affectionate with his wife, But at the same time, he can't stand the temptation and has the urge to cheat. He is a very contradictory person, and his family, life, and life and death are all concentrated in the performance... Faced with these, do you really think he is suitable?"
