(Ask for a recommendation ticket! Ask for a collection! Ask for support!)

When leaving London, Matthew did not take the flight to Los Angeles, but went to Miami, Florida, to meet Britney.

Since Britney's Miami concert is about to be held, the time is very tight, Matthew can only use Britney's break at noon to secretly have a tryst with her for an hour, and he has to leave. He originally planned to wait until tomorrow to see the cloth. After Lanney's concert, he returned to Los Angeles, but Helen Herman's urging phone call came and asked him to be taken back to Los Angeles to prepare for the premiere of "Gladiator".

There was no other way, Matthew had to change his ticket and got on a flight to Los Angeles that afternoon. He gradually understood why those celebrity couples always got together less often.

He and Britney have established a relationship of boyfriend and girlfriend for half a year, but the number of times the two have met is only in single digits.

"When Britney finishes her world tour, my career will pick up..." Matthew can only think, "There may be more time."

He also scratched his head a little. When he met Britney, he heard her talk about work. It is said that the record company is already planning a second album.

Back in Los Angeles, and out of the international airport, Matthew didn't even go home, he went directly to the Angels Agency, Helen Herman was still waiting for him.

Entering the small building of the Angel Agency, leaving the luggage at the front desk, Matthew went upstairs into Helen Herman's office and asked directly, "Why are you calling me back in such a hurry?"

He was also polite and went to the water dispenser to pick up a glass of cold water. Helen Herman waited for him to take a sip before saying, "There are four days until the North American premiere of "Gladiator"!"

Matthew was not enlightened and sat on the chair in front of the desk, "That's right, there are still four days left."

Helen Herman simply asked, "Are you ready for the premiere?"

"It's ready!" Of course Matthew thought about the red carpet premiere, after all, it was very rare for him, "I didn't wear a new suit that I bought, so I had to find someone in the clothing team to iron it in the UK. …”

"Wait!" Helen Herman raised her hand to interrupt Matthew, "Aren't you going to wear old clothes to the red carpet?"

Matthew spread his hands, "That's a new suit."

Helen Herman looked at him and asked, "Okay, let me ask you, the brand of the clothes? The designer? What year's style? There are matching shoes, bow ties, and shirts. How do you solve it?"

"Huh?" Matthew couldn't answer at all. He hadn't paid attention to this aspect at all, so he had to tell the truth, "I don't know."

"You are an actor!" Helen-Hellman specially emphasized, "You are still an actor with a bit of fame. In formal occasions, you should pay attention to your own taste and image."

Matthew shrugged, "I don't understand this."

He knows that the stars are shining brightly in front of the camera, which must be the result of careful construction, but he does not understand the details.

Helen Herman answered, "So, I called you back."

"I don't understand this aspect." Matthew already trusts Helen Herman more in business, "I'll listen to you."

He then asked, "You won't let me wear those luxury couture suits, will you?"

"No." Helen Herman shook his head, "In terms of your current fame, status, and economic ability, it's not necessary."

Matthew didn't say anything, he still listened to the manager's opinion in this regard.

Helen-Hellman said, "A medium brand of clothing is enough, it is too late to order, I have contacted a company that provides clothing rental, they will provide a full service including shoes, you go to try on clothes tomorrow. ."

Saying that, she pushed the two business cards in front of Matthew, gave him the first one, then tapped the second one, and said, "This is a personal stylist, I said hello, you Contact her today and ask her to style you on the day of the premiere."

"Okay." Matthew put the two business cards in his wallet and asked the most concerned question, "That... Helen, how do they charge."

Helen-Hellman knows that Matthew is not very wealthy financially, "You have two thousand dollars ready, it should be enough."

Matthew nodded. Although he didn't say anything, he also felt a sense of heartache. The "Band of Brothers" crew had paid him a total of $40,000 in remuneration, deducting Helen Herman's agent commission of $4,000. $20,000 in liquidated damages for two payments, $4,000 in attorney fees for Wilson's attorney, $4,000 in annual rent for the apartment, money to order gifts for Britney in the air, and April is the tax season of old America, Even if you count the money he made before, it's a little over three thousand dollars on him.

It cost him two thousand dollars this time, and he had a bleak feeling of returning to the pre-liberation overnight.

"The money also includes the cost of renting a car." Helen-Hellman added, "The crew does not have a car sponsor, except for the director, main actors and valuable guests, other people attending the premiere, the crew does not provide vehicles, and need to own their own vehicles."

Matthew is very self-aware, and he is definitely not on the list of vehicles provided by the crew.

He looked up at Helen Herman and asked tentatively, "I remember you own a Mercedes-Benz."

Helen-Hellman didn't even think about it, "I don't work part-time as a driver." She threw a document in front of Matthew, "This is an affordable car rental agency, look at the vehicles on it."

Matthew took it over and looked over it and asked, "What's your suggestion?"

"A flagship Cadillac." Helen Herman apparently had an idea. "Service from noon to twelve o'clock in the evening, and the rent will not exceed five hundred dollars."

"Okay." Matthew returned the information to Helen Herman, "Please help me contact the vehicle."

Helen Herman did not refuse, took the information and nodded.

"By the way, Helen." Matthew asked again, thinking of his shriveled pockets, "When will the "Band of Brothers" crew pay the remaining $20,000?"

"No money?" Helen Herman asked.

Matthew didn't deny it, "Yeah. If I hadn't lived and boarded in the crew for the past few months, I guess I wouldn't be able to pay two thousand dollars."

He has been filming on the set for the past few months, and his living expenses are very small. Except for going out for drinks with Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy and Michael Kuritz from time to time, most of the expenses are actually spent on cloth Lanny is on, basically every time Britney goes to a new city to hold a concert, she will receive a small gift specially made by him.

Even so, he has a tendency to become a poor ghost again.

Matthew did not expect that a red carpet premiere would cost so much. According to normal assumptions, women generally spend more on dressing up than men. Could it be that the cost of an actress walking the red carpet would be higher?

Of course, he also knows that those big stars are definitely different. There is another thing in the world called sponsors.

"You have finished filming all the scenes of Ronald Spears." Helen Herman is quite responsible for her work, "I will contact the crew in the afternoon, and if everything goes well, it is estimated that you will get the last one next week. Pen pay."

"It's best that everything goes well!" Matthew stood up, "If there is nothing else, I'll go first."

Helen Herman nodded and said again, "Don't forget to contact the clothing rental company and stylist."

"I can't forget it!" Matthew also felt that if he wanted to become a star, a bright appearance was very necessary. "Call me on the phone if you have anything else."

After picking up the salute from downstairs and leaving the Angel Agency, Matthew called a taxi and returned to Ximu District. On the way back, he remembered the financial problems again. When the last payment of $20,000 was received, he would be able to pay it back. The liquidated damages of the agreement have been cleared. If Helen Herman can be linked to a new job and his income is okay, he will have the money to buy a used car.

He didn't want to go to the bank for a loan, not even a new car, and a second-hand car was enough.

Back at the apartment, Matthew had a good night's rest. When the next day's work time came, he contacted the clothing rental company first. He could try on the clothes at any time in these two days. Then he called the stylist, and the two sides agreed to do the styling. Time, he had nothing to do for the time being, UU reading www.uukanshu.com simply went to the clothing rental company.

I tried on several sets of men's formal clothes. Although a costumer introduced them, Matthew couldn't see much difference between these clothes. He felt that the styles were similar. Finally, he chose a set based on the costumer's suggestion and the rental price. black dress.

After finishing the costume, he went back to the apartment to get the borrowed tapes, went to the Los Angeles School of Performing Arts, returned the tapes to his former acting teacher David Astor, and borrowed a new batch from him so that Continue to practice on your own.

In the afternoon, Helen Herman called and said that after communicating with the crew, it was confirmed that the last payment would be received next Monday.

Hearing this news, Matthew regained his confidence. He simply went to the second-hand market and went to see the car first. Due to personal factors, RB cars and Korean cars were not considered, and he finally settled on one. Used white Ford cars, the price is not too expensive, as long as less than five thousand dollars.

He plans to wait for his paycheck next week to come over to pick up the car.

In the following days, Matthew resumed his very planned life, exercising, studying, imitating, and also trying to add writing to the plan.

After a year of unremitting efforts, he can't say how high his reading level is, but his self-esteem should not be too different from that of ordinary people.

As for the writing ability, it is not worth mentioning.

Time flies in Matthew's busy schedule. At noon on the day of the premiere, the black Cadillac sedan that Helen-Hellman contacted appeared downstairs in his apartment on time. Matthew got into the sedan and went to the clothing rental company to pick it up. Clothes and shoes before arriving at the stylist's studio.

After three hours of modeling, Matthew took a Cadillac and rushed to the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, where the premiere was held.
