Chapter 29: compete

(The second one is here! Please recommend tickets! Please support me!)

"Hi, Amanda."

As soon as he entered the lobby of the Angel Agency, Matthew saw the female receptionist at the front desk. Amanda obviously knew him too, and greeted him warmly, "Hello, Matthew. Helen is waiting for you upstairs."

Instead of going upstairs, Matthew went over to chat with her for a while, then passed through the hall, followed the stairs to the second floor, and came to Helen Herman's office, knocked politely on the door, and waited inside. A crisp 'please come in' came, pushed the door and walked in.

"Sit whatever you want, Matthew."

Helen Herman pointed to the single sofa in the office, and Matthew realized that not only Helen Herman was alone in the office, but also two middle-aged people in their forties, and six young people. People, one of whom he knew very well, Michael Sheehan.

"The Angel Agency is also planning to sign a long-term contract with them?"

Although Matthew was puzzled, he didn't ask, and sat on a single sofa.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, we can start." Helen Herman said at this time, "The Angel Agency is going to sign a one-year actor management contract with the seven of you to provide you with a full range of services. Service and good job opportunities.”

She picked up a stack of contracts, came out from behind her desk, distributed it to seven people, Matthew and Michael Sheehan, then looked at the two middle-aged men and said, "This is Marshall Williams from the Screen Actors Guild. Mr. Bertez-Clement, the union lawyer."

Matthew looked at the other people. Like him, Michael Sheehan was not a member of the Screen Actors Guild. It should be one of the five who joined the Screen Actors Guild.

"Some of you are not members of a union," Helen Herman continued, "but Marshall Williams can notarize the contract, and Mr Bertus Clement can guarantee the legal effect of the contract. "

She went back behind the desk, "If you have any questions, you can ask them both."

The two showed their entertainment lawyer certificates and the internal certificates of the Actors Guild, respectively, to show Matthew and others that their identities were okay.

Matthew has already looked through the contract. After this period of hard work, his reading level has improved significantly. There is no problem in understanding such a contract.

He took it very seriously, carefully scrutinizing every sentence and every sentence. Although poor people like them had nothing to deceive, at least they had to understand the contract.

Matthew read the contract carefully and confirmed that there were no problems in it. He happily signed his name on it. This brokerage contract lasted for one year. From the signing of the contract, he became the exclusive client of Angel Brokerage. Helen Helen Mann also became his exclusive agent.

This also means that Matthew can't just take jobs from other intermediary companies.

Those people also signed the contract one after another.

After signing the contract, the Screen Actors Guild representative named Marshall Williams took the contract backups of five other people except Matthew and Michael Sheehan, and left the office with attorney Berthe Clement. Only then did Matthew find out that those people were all members of the Actors Guild.

"Let me tell you, there are a few points that you should pay attention to." Helen-Hellman looked at the seven Matthew and said, "First, starting from today, you can no longer take jobs from other companies; second, I I will recommend a special performance training course for you to study at your own expense. If you have a better choice, you can ignore this point; third, find a part-time job that is more suitable for your role as an actor. I may help you at any time in the future. Get job opportunities; fourth, Matthew and Michael, when the conditions are right, join the Actors Guild as soon as possible."

Matthew nodded lightly. He didn't know what other people thought. In his opinion, these suggestions from Helen Herman are very pertinent and beneficial to an actor's long-term development.

Helen-Hellman added, "The last point, people who don't have a mobile phone buy a mobile phone and keep it on 24 hours a day."

She waved her hand, "You can go. Matthew and Michael, remember to go to the finance room to collect your role salary a few days ago."

The reward is coming so soon? Matthew was a little surprised at first, but it seemed normal to think about Helen Herman's relationship with Ridley Scott.

After leaving Helen Herman's office, the other five people left one after another, leaving only Matthew and Michael Sheehan to go to the financial room together.

Obviously, in addition to Helen Herman and Amanda, Angel Agency has added some more employees.

Just like when he was at Starlight Company, Matthew's remuneration has to be deducted from the brokerage company's 10% commission. Due to the large amount, he and Michael Sheehan both left bank accounts, and the financial staff of Angel Brokerage Company told them the remuneration. It will definitely arrive today.

"I got a call from Amanda last night"

Walking out of the company together, Michael Sheehan said to Matthew, "It was a surprise to tell me to come over to sign a long-term contract today."

He was obviously in a good mood, "Probably the way you are familiar with your face is working."

Matthew shrugged slightly, "Maybe so."

The two walked out of the Angel Agency, and Michael Sheehan said, "This is the most important contract in my life!"

Matthew nodded slightly, and in some ways he too.

"let's work hard together!"

Suddenly, Michael Sheehan stopped, looked at Matthew, and said seriously, "Matthew, we will definitely become big stars!"

"Yeah!" Matthew nodded heavily.

Although he has a little prejudice against Michael Sheehan in his heart, his goals are exactly the same as Michael Sheehan.

"Do you have time?" Michael Sheehan offered to invite, "Let's find a place to have a drink and celebrate."

"Another day." Matthew had something else to do, so he could only decline, "I'll sign up for the language class at the Los Angeles Performing Arts School later."

It will be May soon, and there is a limited time before the second tuition payment, but with the $8,000 reward received by the "Gladiator" crew, when he just signed the contract, he decided to listen to Helen Herman's advice and report one. Language classes to correct so-called Texan accents.

"Los Angeles Performing Arts School?" Michael Sheehan asked in surprise, "Are you sure you can get into LA Performing Arts School?"

As far as he knows, the Los Angeles Performing Arts School requires a relatively high entry barrier, and it is difficult for them to enter the small actors who are not large agencies.

People like him don't even have to think about it.

Matthew can enter such a school?

Just when Michael Sheehan was in a daze, Matthew said casually, "I called them yesterday to consult them. Those who enter the performance training class are free to sign up for other training courses."

The surprise on Michael Sheehan's face became more obvious, "You entered the performance training class of the Los Angeles Performing Arts School?"

"Yes." Matthew nodded.

"This..." Michael Sheehan almost blurted out how this was possible.

Matthew took out his phone and checked the time, "I have already paid the first tuition fee."

The surprise on Michael Sheehan's face gradually turned into envy. The training class of the Los Angeles School of Performing Arts is known as a special session of Creative Entertainment Agency and William Morris Endeavour Agency. Entering it will not only meet some actors who may have a great future, said Maybe they can still be seen by the brokers of these two companies...

How can Angel Entertainment Agency compare with Creative Entertainment Agency and William Morris Endeavour Agency?

Matthew glanced at Michael Sheehan, frowned slightly, and simply said, "Mike, if I have nothing to do, I'll go first."

"Ah..." Michael Sheehan came back to his senses and nodded mechanically, "Okay."

Looking at the back of Matthew turning away, the envy on his face instantly turned into jealousy. Why is he always one step ahead of himself? Why does such a good resource always fall into the hands of someone who has just entered the business?

"It's just getting started..." The jealousy on Michael Sheehan's face slowly dissipated, "There is still a long way to go, and I will definitely get the company's best resources!"

For a small company like Angel Agency, the resources that can be obtained from Hollywood are bound to be limited, and if others take it, there will be no him~www.readwn.com~ Wait until you become a little famous in Angel Agency..." After Michael Sheehan was confirmed how to go,” and then you can jump to a bigger company. "

When leaving Burbank and taking the bus to North Hollywood, Matthew kept thinking about today's situation. Helen Herman obviously wouldn't put his treasure on a small actor, and adopted a strategy of casting a wide net.

He couldn't help shaking his head. He had a little fantasy before, for example, the Angels brokerage company gave him a lot of support. Now it seems that the brokerage company is not stupid.

This also made Matthew fully understand that even in such a small brokerage company, if he wanted to make a real breakthrough, he had to rush out all the way.

"Competition." Matthew said to himself, "If you want to climb up, you must compete, and no industry is an exception."

When he came to North Hollywood, he got off the car and went directly to the Los Angeles Performing Arts School, and signed up for a language class that also opened in May. Now Hollywood is showing a trend of internationalization, and similar language classes are more common.

After signing up, Matthew called Liszt to cancel the leave. Now that the stock market is in full swing, coupled with the poor nature of the work, Red Penguin has been facing a shortage of drivers. Liszt asked Matthew to go to work that night, but he is no longer responsible for the time being. The previous high-end business was replaced by delivering party equipment.

This job is also at night. After leaving get off work the next morning, Matthew has no dissatisfaction. After all, such a job where you can find time to sleep at night and have free time during the day is not easy to find.

For the next long time, his life fell into a state of repetition. He went to work at night, exercised and studied by himself during the day, and he never received a job.

Come May, the traditional summer movie stalls in North America have opened up, and Matthew's performance training class has also started.
