(Ask for tickets! If you have recommended tickets in hand, give more!)

The two workers walking in front were carrying a huge bookshelf, which seemed to be made of mahogany and was expensive. Matthew followed them and entered the door. The first floor was a hall with many benches. The hall was in the center. It is the front desk of the surround design, the upper line of bold characters is particularly eye-catching - Angel Performing Arts Agency!

There was no one at the front desk, and there was a smell of new decoration in the hall.

Seeing that no one received him, Matthew thought for a while, followed behind the group of workers, and walked up the stairs leading to the second floor.

The bookshelf was very heavy. As soon as the two workers went up the stairs, the one at the back was bent over and walked up a few steps. Matthew noticed that the worker behind him suddenly slipped, and the bookshelf suddenly fell, so he slammed it on the stairs. It might hit someone's legs.

Matthew was born from a small person who did rough work. He had a natural sympathy for this class. He hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the bookshelf from the other side of the worker.

He was very strong, and the bookshelf immediately stabilized. The worker next to him felt his hands lighten, turned his head, and quickly thanked him, "Thank you."

"You're welcome." Matthew nodded slightly to him, "Let's go."

Now that he stretched out his hand, he didn't plan to take it back and helped the two workers carry the bookshelf and go up to the second floor together.

"This way, be careful."

At the entrance of the stairs on the second floor, a woman in her twenties stood, instructing workers to move things into an office, "Handle with care, don't damage the floor!"

The floor is new and bright, obviously new.

Matthew assisted the two workers and kept moving the bookshelf into the office and placed it behind a huge mahogany desk.

"thanks!"

Putting down the bookshelf, the worker behind him immediately smiled and said to Matthew, "If it wasn't for you, the bookshelf would be knocked over."

"It's nothing." Only then did Matthew realize that the worker was about the same age as him, at most in his early twenties, and said casually, "You're too polite."

The two walked outside together, and the young worker said again, "Are you an employee of this company?"

Matthew shook his head as he walked, "No."

After leaving the office, he saw the woman at the stairwell tipping the workers, and soon came to him.

The woman handed over a dollar bill, but Matthew didn't answer it and said, "Are you an employee of the Angel Agency? I'm an actor, and I called you yesterday."

"Oh?" The woman looked at Matthew in astonishment, and the young worker looked over in astonishment as well, and then took the initiative to say, "He just saw the heavy bookshelf and helped us a little."

"Are you also an actor?" The woman turned to ask the young worker.

What Matthew didn't expect was that the young worker nodded hurriedly, "Yeah, me too!" He scratched his head and smiled, "I'll deliver the goods to you today, stop by and see."

"Wait a minute!" The woman went to send the other workers first.

Matthew took a look and found that this company seems to have only a woman as an employee.

"Hello!" The young worker introduced himself, "Michael Sheehan, from Nevada."

"Hello." Matthew nodded lightly, "Matthew Horner, a Texan."

The woman walked back at this time and greeted Matthew and the young worker named Michael Sheehan, "You two come with me."

Matthew immediately followed her into an office, and Michael Sheehan followed.

The woman turned on the computer, let Matthew and Michael Sheehan sit casually, and introduced herself, "I'm Helen Herman, the boss of Angel Agency."

She asked, "Did you two bring the materials?"

"I took it." Matthew opened his bag, and Michael Sheehan patted his head, "I forgot my information on the truck, I'll get it right away!"

Helen Herman nodded, "Yes."

Michael Sheehan hurried out.

Matthew was observing this woman. With Dennis Coulter in front, he took precautions for the profession of an agent.

This woman is about 1.7 meters tall, her hair is dark brown commonly seen in American women, and she is meticulously combed behind her head. The lady's suit exudes a shrewd and capable temperament.

In terms of appearance alone, she is more likely to impress people than Dennis Coulter.

Matthew handed a stack of documents to the other party, and Helen Herman started typing into the computer, tapping on the keyboard and saying, "Congratulations, Matthew Horner, you are the first client of Angel Brokerage."

"Number one?" Matthew asked slightly surprised, "This company has just been established?"

Helen Herman didn't look up, "Yesterday was my first job advertisement."

Matthew couldn't help his curiosity, and asked again, "You're not the only employee in this company, right?"

"There are two people for the time being." Helen Herman still didn't look up, "but I'm the only one at work today."

She asked again, "Do you have a part-time job?"

"Yes, night shift driver." Matthew said simply, "I've been waiting most of the time, I can sleep and rest, and don't delay doing other things during the day."

Helen Herman continued to ask, "Want to grow in Hollywood for a long time?"

Matthew said without hesitation, "I want to be a big star and make a lot of money."

While speaking, he carefully observed Helen Herman's expression. If the person facing him was someone like Dennis Coulter, even if he didn't say anything, he would show a mocking expression.

This woman didn't change anything, she just looked up at Matthew and said, "Having goals is a good thing."

She stopped typing on the keyboard, raised her head and said, "Since you want to be in this industry for a long time, in the future for a long time, even for a few years, your actor salary will not be able to support you, you need a part-time job! Your part-time job sounds pretty good."

Matthew nodded, this was the main reason for staying in the Red Penguin company.

It's not that he can't find other jobs with higher income, but his time is definitely not as free as the driver of the Red Penguin, and it is not as good as the current job as a temporary worker in low-end restaurants such as McDonald's and KFC.

"Are you a union member?" Helen Herman asked.

"No." Matthew shook his head, "I didn't join."

"why?"

Matthew said bluntly, "No money! I can't pay the $3,000 membership fee, and I'm worried that the minimum hourly wage will be higher, which will reduce competitiveness."

Helen Herman continued to enter the information, and when she saw the line specially marked by Matthew, she couldn't help asking, "Your first character has lines?"

"Yes." Matthew knew that this might be related to future job opportunities, for fear that the other party would not believe him, he said, "The filming just ended yesterday, and many people in the crew know this."

"Who introduced you to this crew?" Helen Herman asked the key.

"Julie." Matthew pulled the tiger's skin as a banner again, "Introduced by Miss Angelina Jolie."

"Oh?" Helen Herman stopped her work, "You know Julie very well?"

Matthew shook his head, "Unfamiliar." He shrugged slightly, "If I knew very well, I wouldn't come here."

Helen Herman still looked at him.

"It was a coincidence that I helped Miss Julie a little." Matthew explained casually, "She helped me get a character with two lines."

Although she didn't say anything, Helen Herman made a special note on Matthew's file, and the entry was considered complete. She said to Matthew, "Keep your phone on 24 hours a day, there is something suitable for you. work, and I'll call you."

This is similar to what the other two companies said. Matthew did not expect to receive special treatment. He stood up and politely spoke to Helen Herman, and walked out of the office to the stairs.

Just as he walked to the door of the stairs, Michael Sheehan just trotted up.

"It's over?" He saw Matthew and asked, "Going?"

Matthew nodded, "It's been filed, go back to answer the phone."

"How many roles have you got, man?" Michael Sheehan asked again.

"There's only one." Matthew sighed, "The competition is too fierce."

"Don't worry, it will get better and better." Michael Sheehan laughed, "It was the same when I first entered the industry, but now I have played more than 20 roles. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

Probably because Matthew helped him just now, the young porter said again, "If you have time, go to a few more intermediary companies for the record, and you will have more opportunities."

Matthew thought so too, "Thanks, I'll go to a few more places tomorrow."

Michael Sheehan still had to do the filing, and left soon. Matthew left the building, went to the newsstand to buy a lot of newspapers, entered a nearby street park, and found a bench to sit down. Open the newspaper to find similar job advertisements, count the phone numbers, and then call them one by one, and agree with the other party on the time to enter the information.

Perhaps because of having played a role, these companies basically did not refuse.

In the following week or so, in addition to exercising and reading, Matthew traveled almost all over the Los Angeles area during the day. He filed records with more than 20 actors' agencies, and even visited the two major actors' unions. However, subject to various conditions, it can only be a passer-by of the trade union for the time being.

During this period, I also received a call from an intermediary company and got a job in a horror film crew, lying on the ground as a corpse.

This kind of work is nothing to mention. Matthew's face is on the ground, his body is covered in blood red ketchup, the camera just swept away, and his salary is only twenty dollars for three hours.

With such good luck on the cast of "The Girl Who Moved Soul", it is not something that such a small person can encounter often, so Matthew can only wait for the opportunity slowly.

Fortunately, he still has a job as a driver, and the salary he earns can support himself.

Not long after Red Penguin issued his first monthly salary, Matthew finally waited for a call from Angelina Jolie's assistant Vanessa, and Angelina Jolie fulfilled her promise in order to repay the favor. , helped him connect with a performance training school.
