Best Movie Star

The second one is here. What about the recommendation ticket? What about collections?

Anyone who sees such a beautiful woman will stop and look at it for a while, and Matthew is no exception. Due to the bookshelf in the middle, his eyes have been moving with the short-haired woman. She is beautiful, and she even runs to the bookstore. Can it be regarded as the intellectual beauty in the rumor?

As soon as such a thought appeared, Matthew's eyes suddenly widened. The woman seemed to have found a book she liked and stopped in front of a bookshelf. With lightning speed, she pulled out two colorful thirty-two open books and stuffed them into the in his handbag.

Matthew squeezed his eyes hard, as if he didn't believe what he saw in front of him. Such a slender, delicate, and innocent woman turned out to be a thief?

The short-haired woman stuffed the book into her bag and continued to visit the bookstore as if nothing had happened. Matthew thought that she might have temporarily put the book in her bag, and when she paid at the cashier, she would take it out and quickly select several books about actors. , turned to the bookshelf on the woman's side, and found that the other party had already walked to the cashier.

"If she is a thief, it would be wonderful to be caught!"

Curious, Matthew followed, and when he passed by the bookshelf where the woman was holding the book, he took a special look, and there were indeed two vacancies on it.

Just as he turned out of the bookshelf, the short-haired woman walked past the cashier with a handbag, and the two female clerks standing behind the cashier greeted her warmly, as if they knew her. The woman nodded and said directly. out the door.

Matthew couldn't help shaking his head, walked over and put the book on the cashier counter, but didn't say anything. After paying, he left. Although this surprised him, he didn't need to mind his own business.

In order to save money, he didn't call for a rental, and changed to a bus to go home. Although the small apartment he rented was old, it also meant that he had a fixed foothold in Los Angeles.

Back home, sitting on the sofa that had collapsed in the middle, Matthew picked up one of the books he bought, opened it and read it. Skills and History", he read it for a while, just like reading contracts before, he always found it difficult to read...

boom-

Matthew closed the book. It was urgent to improve his reading ability. After thinking for a while, he went to the newsstand downstairs and bought two newspapers. Compared with the tome full of technical terms, the newspapers were less difficult to understand.

After reading a tabloid, he set himself a task. From now on, he must set aside time to read every day to improve this most basic ability. When reading reaches a certain level, he will also need to exercise his writing ability.

Even if you can't be a Hollywood star, you can't be semi-illiterate.

There is also an acting school, which is also a very important matter, but don’t worry, Matthew has checked in the past few days. If you are willing to further your studies, there are countless performance training institutions in Los Angeles. These institutions include professional performance schools, short-term training courses, Temporary acting courses in various universities, performance lectures on Broadway, etc. For example, the Hollywood Film and Television Academy provides six-month courses, 5 times a week.

The problem is that these are expensive, and under the circumstance that liquidated damages may be added at any time, he is temporarily unable to pay such a large amount.

Just thinking of the previous breach of contract, the phone rang.

Matthew put it in his ear, and a very professional voice came, "Hello, is this Mr. Matthew Horner?"

"I am." He had a bad feeling.

"Mr. Horner, I'm lawyer Chris Walker." The man introduced himself, "The legal counsel of the "Forbidden Tarot" crew, I am now representing the crew and the company where the crew works, and I formally inform you that you have violated the contract between the two parties. the contract..."

Then he said a lot of technical terms and contract terms, which eventually turned into a sentence, "You need to pay $50,000 in liquidated damages! Please provide your address, and I will send you a formal lawyer's letter this afternoon..."

"Hello? Hello?" Matthew suddenly shouted loudly, "What are you talking about? I can't hear you clearly? Damn phone, something went wrong again!"

After speaking, he directly opened the back cover of the phone and took off the battery.

This is a no-brainer. It can only be done in a hurry. When the guy signed the contract with the "Forbidden Tarot" crew, all he left behind was real information. It will be a new century soon. In society, as long as the other party pursues the breach of contract, it is estimated that it will be useless for him to run back to the Texas countryside.

"Fifty thousand dollars is not a small amount." Matthew frowned, "Should I also find a lawyer?"

If you find a lawyer, it is easy to reach an out-of-court settlement. It may not cost as much as $50,000, but the lawyer's fee is also a lot of expenses.

Matthew knew very well that in the end it was a matter of money. If there was money, none of these problems would be a problem.

When will I be able to be as carefree as Johnny Lee Miller?

Thinking of this, Matthew put down his mobile phone, took the newspaper and books, and read it carefully again. If he didn't even have the ability, even if the opportunity presented itself, he would not be able to seize it.

After reading books for a few hours in the apartment, he went out for a run in the afternoon, and had some dinner casually. Matthew went out again. Currently, the actor can only be described as a part-time job. His regular occupation is the driver of the Red Penguin Company.

Went to Liszt to get work assignments and car keys, endured the sarcasm of black people and fat people, and waited in the driver's lounge for a while. Matthew drove the Ford nanny car and set off to pick up people in Westwood District, and then Take it to nearby Orange County.

Picking up the blond girl named Rachel from Westwood District, Matthew drove on the highway leading to Orange County. Just like last time, this girl was sunny and cheerful, sitting in the seat next to her and talking non-stop.

"Handsome guy, how are you thinking?" She said carelessly, "Recently, a company is urgently recruiting male models. Your conditions are very good."

Matthew didn't even think about it, he shook his head, "No."

"Your job earns very little." Rachel took out the mirror to touch up her makeup, "Can I support you?"

"I found another part-time job," Matthew said.

Rachel looked at him curiously, "Isn't that what you said last time to be an actor?"

"Yeah!" Matthew nodded, "I've already got a job in a crew."

"Cut!" Rachel waved, "The kind of background board without lines?"

"Yeah!" Matthew responded.

Rachel hummed and said, "When I first arrived in Los Angeles more than a year ago, I had won several roles like this, and it was useless and had no chance."

She shrugged and said in a relaxed tone, "For a long time, I wanted to commit suicide in desperation."

"It's not like that?" Matthew quickly turned his head and glanced at her.

It's hard to imagine such a sunny and cheerful girl wanting to commit suicide.

"You don't know the kind of poor people who can't even pay the rent, can't even eat..." Rachel put away her smile, "Look at the despair that there is no way to go."

"I have experienced it." Matthew smiled, "I once thought about committing suicide."

"Huh?" Rachel laughed again, "Why didn't you commit suicide?"

"I didn't find the right way." Matthew said half-truths, "It hurts to use a knife, it's too wet to jump into a river, it stains clothes with sulfuric acid, you get cramps when you take medicine, guns are illegal, you can't hang yourself, and the gas stinks. So, let's just steal your life."

"You...haha..."

Rachel pointed at Matthew and laughed.

Like last time, the two were chatting to pass the time. After getting off the highway, Matthew picked up another three girls in Orange County and sent them to their destination before dark.

It is also a mansion, the difference is that this time it seems to be a formal party.

However, none of this was his business. As usual, he parked the car outside the mansion out of the way. Matthew put the seat down to sleep, and when the next day dawned, he put a few tired girls next to each other. sent back.

After finishing work and not returning home, Matthew received a call from his agent, Dennis Coulter, informing him to report to the crew in the afternoon.

Matthew hurried back home, took another nap, cleaned himself up a little, looked quite energetic, ate a little meal in advance, and rushed to Universal Studios. It was not even twelve o'clock noon when he got there.

At the entrance of the studio, Matthew saw a fat figure again. Unlike the last meeting, Dennis Kurt looked high-spirited, as if a happy event was coming.

"Let's go..." He beckoned to Matthew, "Let's go in."

The two said a few words to the staff guarding the entrance of the studio and entered the office area they had visited before. Since it was lunch time, most of the people went to eat, and the office area was empty. Hew and Dennis Coulter sat on a bench in front of the casting director's office and waited patiently.

"Remember!" Dennis Coulter seemed to be in a really good mood, and specifically told Matthew, "Do what you want to do when shooting, and don't make your own decisions."

He waved his hand, "You are just a background board. Normally, you can just stand still. It's not difficult."

Matthew nodded, "I remember!"

This is the first step in accumulating experience and qualifications. When he came to Los Angeles, he basically smeared his eyes. With experience and qualifications, he will have a higher chance of getting a role in the future.

"I'm going out to the toilet, you wait here, don't run around."

If it wasn't for this stepping stone to play a role, and to get in touch with the casting director Rubin, Dennis Coulter would not be too lazy to say this, "There may be additional performances in a while, so don't conflict with people."

Matthew nodded, and Dennis Coulter turned and walked away.

Sitting here was so boring, Matthew couldn't help but imagine what it would be like to play for the first time in the afternoon. After thinking about it for a while, the sound of high heels stepping on the floor suddenly came from the other side of the corridor, and then from a corner, a man came over. Slender girl.

Matthew glanced over there and found that it was Angelina Jolie who had dyed her hair blond. He thought she was here to find him, so he quickly stood up and waved his hand.

Unexpectedly, Angelina Jolie didn't even look at her, she just pushed open a door and broke in.

"Why? Why do you want to cancel yesterday's scene?" Angelina Jolie's angry roar sounded immediately, "You want to cut my part?"

A cold and empty female voice followed, "I'm the producer, this is a normal shooting adjustment!"
