Best Movie Star

Chapter 7: My client

Hanging up the phone and standing at the door of the Red Penguin Company, Matthew waved his fist vigorously. This is the first step towards becoming a star and opening up a better life in the future. It is finally here!

The person who called was Angelina Jolie's assistant. She told Matthew to go to the Universal Studios studio north of Burbank next Monday to audition with his agent, and she said that it was just for the casting director to take a look. , and then signed an extras agreement with the crew.

As for the character, it's the kind of passerby who passes by in a flash.

Matthew never thought of going to the sky in one step, that would be impossible, which basically met his expectations.

He doesn't know much about Hollywood himself, and what he knows is basically the popular goods in the era of crazy information dissemination, such as Angelina Jolie who later married Brad Pitt, but the previous one, because he wanted to enter Hollywood. relationship, collected a lot of information, these memories are left.

Therefore, Matthew's current position is very clear, that is, an extra, in the words of another country, also called an extra.

No matter what kind of actor, if you want to get a job, you need an agent.

It is not easy to get a job in Hollywood, but the threshold for becoming an actor in name is not high. Anyone who wants to be an actor, whether professional or extra, the first step is to find a photographer to take a few headshots and full body photos, and then Go to the brokerage company to register information such as height, weight, eye color, etc., sign an agency contract, and put it in the database for the brokerage company to contact the crew.

The previous one has already completed this step. He has done a record in a small brokerage company, and there is still a broker's phone number in his mobile phone, but unfortunately the other party has never contacted him.

Matthew took out his mobile phone and walked towards the bus stop while flipping through it. There is no better choice now. The agent who has a phone number in his mobile phone can try to contact him.

If it really doesn't work, I'll find another small agency. Los Angeles is the seat of Hollywood after all.

Actually, he wanted to find an agent. He thought of it after talking with Angelina Jolie, but yesterday he was busy renting a house and went to work at night, so he didn't have time to spare.

According to the memory of the previous one, an agent is not only necessary for an actor to obtain a job, but an excellent agent can also help employers plan their future career path. Matthew also wants to go to a special performance training school for further studies, which is also necessary. But he was blindsided and needed advice from a professional like an agent.

Hollywood not only has five big brokerage companies, but also many small companies that survive in the gap between the five big companies.

The Starlight Company on Sunset Boulevard is one of them.

This company is not large and has not been established for a long time. There are only seven or eight small brokers who have obtained licenses for a short time and do not have many resources. There are only three offices. The boss occupies one, and the finance department uses the least one. , the rest are crammed into an oversized office.

"Hey, Director Kuka, it's me, Dennis, we had dinner together the day before yesterday."

The caller was a fat man with glasses, and even if the other party was just a casting director of a small production crew, he couldn't see it, and he still looked flattered, "Don't you need twenty corpses for your film? I've already contacted the manpower. Don't worry, there's absolutely no problem, these people have all played corpses, and they won't move if you kick and kick them on the ground! When will we sign?"

"well!"

Probably the answer came from the other side, and the fat man smiled so much that he could not see his eyes, "I'll be there early tomorrow morning!"

Hanging up the phone, the fat man put away the flattery on his face and sat down on the chair. The chair made a terrifying creaking sound, as if it would be crushed by him at any time.

"Damn business!" Fatty rubbed his stiff face and complained in a low voice, "It's all this kind of unprofessional business!"

He always felt that the company's acting business made him inferior. He worked here for nearly a year. Among all the films that he has worked with the company, none of them were released on a large scale in theaters. The thing is, the TV series is a little better, but the business in this area is always in the hands of the boss, and it is impossible for him to intervene.

Jingle Bell-

The phone on the desk rang.

"Hello..." He picked up the microphone, "This is Dennis from Starlight Company."

"Ah, hello." A somewhat unfamiliar voice came from the receiver, "Are you Mr. Dennis Coulter?"

"It's me!" He thought that some business had come to the door.

"I'm Matthew Horner." Dennis couldn't remember the name. "The actor who was on file with you some time ago."

Hearing this, Dennis immediately understood that this is not business, just a **** who is daydreaming, "Are you okay?"

There was a hint of impatience in his voice.

"It's like this. I got a job as an extra in a production crew and needed an agent to sign up."

Dennis became a little interested, "How many?"

"One!"

Hearing this answer, Dennis's just-increased interest disappeared without a trace, running errands for a temporary performance? How much can I get?

"Mr. Dennis Coulter?" There was probably no voice over there, and he began to urge, "Are you still there?"

The phone rang suddenly, Dennis picked it up and took a look. Seeing that it was a casting director who had business dealings with him, he immediately put the microphone in his hand aside, just in time to see the young man who had just joined the company last month in front of the desk opposite. Young has nothing to do, so he waved his hand, and said old-fashioned, "I have a business here, come and handle it."

The younger manager took the microphone and started talking.

Dennis Coulter connected the phone, and before he had time to speak, a furious voice came from inside, "Dennis, what are you doing? I want cheap non-union actors! Not expensive union actors! Actors you contacted. Why is there a union member? If I want to find a union member, won't I go to the Actors Union to issue a notice? What do I need to do with you!"

"Sorry!" Dennis Coulter quickly apologized, "Sorry! Maybe my assistant was negligent..."

Where does he have any assistant, he just shirks the responsibility.

"Tomorrow morning!" He promised, "The appropriate actor information will be passed on to you tomorrow morning!"

There were a few more swearing words over there, Dennis Kurt could only listen, and after hanging up the phone, he rolled his eyes in anger while sitting on the chair.

"Wait, I want to make sure!"

The words of the young agent on the other side came over, "You mean you got a job on James Mangold's "Ghost Girl" starring Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie ?"

"What?" Dennis Coulter was stunned for a moment. "James Mangold? Winona Ryder? Angelina Jolie? The Girl Who Moved Souls?"

How could these high-ranking names be involved with the little acting that he didn't even remember his name?

If I remember correctly, this Sony Columbia Pictures film invested as much as $40 million! Not to mention him and his subordinates, even the boss of the company can't reach this level!

Can't go wrong? Dennis Coulter is incredible.

"Yes!" The faint voice over there was very certain, "This job was introduced by Miss Julie."

Julie? Angelina Jolie? Dennis Coulter stood up abruptly, rushed to the opposite side at a speed that was completely inconsistent with his fat body, grabbed the phone receiver, ignored the anger in the young man's eyes, and said loudly, "Sorry, there was a temporary call just now. I'm your agent, Dennis Coulter."

Seeing Fatty being so shameless, the young man wanted to say something angrily, but he was hesitant again in the threatening eyes of the other party and the old-fashioned demeanor.

"Hello, I'm Matthew Horner." The person on the other side didn't seem to realize anything, "Can you represent my business?"

Dennis Coulter said immediately, "Yes! Of course!"

For an agent, such a business is nothing at all, but being able to represent this business means that he can deal with characters of the level of Angelina Jolie and the cast of "The Girl Who Moved Soul". Levels like never before!

Don't say it's him, even the whole company has never been in contact with him.

This is tantamount to a stepping stone, a stepping stone that opens the door to a more advanced business!

Only a fool wants to act as an acting business agent forever and stay in such a small company with no future.

Thinking of the opportunity to build a higher-level network, Dennis Coulter couldn't wait to say, "Well, Matthew, let's meet, UU reading www.uukanshu.com You come to the company, we meet in detail ."

Putting down the phone, Dennis Coulter found that the young man opposite was still looking at him, snorted coldly, and said, "What are you looking at? This is my client."

He was right, the young man gave him one last look indignantly, and sat back in his chair helplessly.

After about 40 minutes, the receptionist outside walked in with a young man, and as soon as he entered the door, he said, "Dennis, I'm looking for you."

Following the eyes of the receptionist, Matthew saw a big fat man wearing glasses, and his visual weight was at least 200 kilograms.

"Are you Matthew?"

The big fat man greeted him with a smile on his face, and Matthew nodded, "Are you Mr. Dennis Coulter?"

"Just call me Dennis." The fat man said familiarly.

He glanced at his watch and said, "Come on, let's go to the coffee shop on the first floor to talk."

Matthew had no objection. He followed the fat man to the cafe. The fat man asked for two cups of coffee and asked, "Is it the job that Miss Julie introduced?"

"Yes." Matthew did not hesitate to use the tiger's skin as a banner, and said at the same time, "Please keep this a secret, Miss Julie doesn't want outsiders to know."

Dennis Kurt nodded, "Tell me about the general situation."

Matthew has made relevant preparations for a long time, and he has said everything he can say. In general, he came to Hollywood to find his dream, and he met Julie by chance, and then Julie helped him get a job as an extra.

"Don't worry, I'll go with you on Monday."

After listening to this, Dennis Coulter said proudly, "You only need to act, and I'll take care of the rest!
