Exploiting Hollywood 1980

  Chapter 27 Female stars from Europe

   "Put your CV and photos back to back and put four staples in the four corners."

   Click, click, click, click. Ronald went back to Demi's apartment and instructed her to pin her resume to the back of her audition shots, which is the industry's best practice to prevent loss.

   "Then what?" Demi asked Ronald after making the reservation.

"Then you can give it to your agent, or you can give it directly to the casting director. If you don't have enough later, take the negatives here to reprint." Ronald handed the remaining photos and negatives to the new release. Demi Moore.

   "Generally, actresses your age should update their audition photos at least once a year, and if they change their hairstyles, they should also update them."

   "Okay. I wrote it all down." Demi said.

   "Then my task for today is completed, and there is nothing else to do, I can take the equipment and go." Ronald hinted.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Demi took out her wallet, took out a pile of money, and counted it, only more than 40, "Ronald, I'm sorry, I agreed on the photography fee of 50 yuan, but I only have 40 yuan now, and I'll pay you the rest when I get more print ads."

   "So, Freddie?"

   "Oh, Ronald. Freddy actually doesn't want me to be an actress. He feels that being an actress will become vain and will leave him in the future. So I can only pay for this money myself."

   Seeing that there were only a few coins left in her wallet, Ronald softened, "Actually, there is another way, Demi."

"any solution?"

  Demi looked at Ronald expectantly and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.

"I need some pictures of actresses to promote my photography studio, if you are willing to license your pictures to me for advertising, I can waive your photography fee, you just pay me a roll The cost of film and printing will do.”

   Said Ronald took out a stack of papers from his camera bag, took out one and handed it to Demi.

  Demi took a look, it said that XX authorized the photo to Ronald Lee, and the photo can only be used for photography studio display and photography studio advertising. Not to be used to promote advertising outside of photo studios, outdoor advertising, etc…

   "Okay, I signed it." Demi took the paper and signed her name. Then hand Ronald along with the money for the film.

   "Thank you, Demi. You'll have a place in Hollywood." Ronald said nicely without money and was ready to leave.

   "Thank you, Ronald, you are a good person." Demi hugged Ronald again, expressing her gratitude.

   "Hi! Demi, I'm here. Where's Freddie?" A woman's cheerful voice came from outside the door, vaguely the same person Demi spoke through the window just now.

   "Wow, Demi, is this your new boyfriend? He's very handsome and looks like "Superman", do you want to be Superman's girlfriend Louise?"

   Ronald almost fell when he heard this, and quickly denied it.

   "No, I don't have..."

   "Hahahaha... I scared you." There was a soft laugh from the person who came, and the words were very special, as if whispering in your ear, which was unforgettable.

  Demi went up to hug her, "You came back from the hair country, Natasha?"

   Ronald only had a chance to see her appearance.

  If Demi's face has the possibility of multiple expressions and is suitable for movies, then this Natasha is even more outstanding, she is simply a great creation of the **** of movies.

   Her face can see the mystery of Greta Garbo, the Hollywood goddess of the golden age, the **** of Italian star Sophia Loren, and the innocence of Audrey Hepburn.

   "Oh, my God, you should go and make a movie based on a classic." Ronald couldn't help but blurt out, in admiration.

   "But I'm shooting." Natasha said.

   "Natasha, this is Ronald, my photographer, and I'll show you the pictures he took of me."

  Demi smiled and introduced them to them, "This is Natasha Kinski, he's filming 'Tess' for director Roman Polanski"

   "Tess of the D'Urbervilles?" asked Ronald, who knew it was the work of the English novelist Hardy. "Are you British, Natasha?" He deliberately changed the British BBC accent, trying to make it a bit closer. If he could get her to endorse his audition studio, his price would be raised.

   "Haha, how's my Dorset accent? For this drama, I've learned it well, right?" Natasha showed off to Demi.

   Ronald felt that the beautiful Natasha had no intention of talking to him, which was a bit regrettable, but she was the heroine of a classic blockbuster, and she should have had a good photographer to cooperate. So he nodded to Demi and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, Ronald." Demi stopped him. My boyfriend said he had something to call you. He turned around to get two enlarged audition photos and handed them to Natasha Kinski, "This is Ronald Nader took a picture of me in the morning."

   Natasha gave Demi a thumbs up, "It's a good shot, better than the magazine photographer who shot me."

Demi took advantage of the heat to strike the iron: "Didn't you come to Hollywood to develop after filming 'Tess'? Hollywood is a casting director, and there are not many portrait photographers who are better than him here." He glanced at Luo Nader, as if to say, introduce you to a business.

   Ronald took out his business card and sent it to Demi and Natasha.

  Natasha was looking at the photo taken by Ronald, looked at the photo, looked at Demi again, then looked at the photo again, compared it for a while, and suddenly asked, "How much did you cost for a set of audition photos?"

   "The drama and the romantic comedy set are $50 each, plus a total of $80 for the black and white version." Ronald took out a price list and handed it to Natasha, "But I'll join the director's union soon, and the price will increase in the future."

   "You want to join the Directors Guild?" Demi interjected.

   "Yes, I work for Roger Coleman at New World Productions, as a secondary director at 'High School of Rock'."

   Looking at the blank eyes of the two beauties, Ronald shrugged: "When I didn't say it, it was just a small production of $300,000."

   The two girls laughed together.

   At this moment Demi's boyfriend Freddy flashed in, "Hey Ronald, do you think I can take a set of audition photos?"

  It turned out that he went to change his clothes just now. Freddy wore a red shirt and walked in, "Hi, Natasha, are you back?" and gave Natasha a hug.

"I don't think it's a problem. The movie 'Rock and Roll High School' I just participated in invited the Ramones to participate. I think it will become a trend for musicians to participate in movies in the future. It's right to prepare early. Yes," Ronald said.

   "Okay, let's get started."

  Because Freddy couldn't see clearly without glasses, Ronald asked him to wear glasses to take pictures. He won't play anyone else anyway, and most likely he will play himself in the movie like Ramones.

   This time it was Demi's turn to stand behind Ronald, sparking her boyfriend's state. However, her boyfriend Freddie is not a model like Demi, and he naturally relaxes in front of the camera. He was still a little nervous about taking pictures, and Ronald took some time to adjust.

   "When I was filming in Hair Country, were there any new movies in Hollywood?" Natasha and Demi took advantage of Freddy's relaxation, and just happened to chat about all kinds of gossip after the two separated.

   "I heard that 'The Deer Hunter' is good, and many Oscar judges watched it when it was released."

   "Oh, the one starring Robert De Niro? I heard about it last time I was in Hollywood. What do you think, Demi?"

   "I didn't watch it. 'The Deer Hunter' was only shown in one theater for 7 days in Los Angeles, and I didn't get a ticket."

"It's a pity, let's watch it together when he is released again." Natasha Kinski pulled Demi, "This time back, my agent has received a lot of scripts, you can help Help me, I don't have time to study English in the hair country, and now I can only say that I can't read."

   Ronald laughed secretly, there are people who are completely opposite to him in this world, I can only read, not speak.

   "How long will you stay this time, until the end of the Christmas holidays?"

"No, this time I'm just coming back to rest for a few days, and I'm going back in the new year." Natasha was a little distressed, "I didn't have a chance to come back, because the director of photography of the 'Tess' crew died of a heart attack. The new director of photography, the director let me come to the United States, and I will go back to Germany in the new year to attend various receptions with the director to prepare for the release of 'Tess'."

   "Wow, how long are you going to shoot? I remember you started shooting this August."

   "It's going to be filmed until March next year, you know, that little guy is always very demanding, and sometimes a scene has to be shot over and over again for a day."

   "In eight months, Roger Coleman can make 10 movies," thought Ronald.

   "By the way, I heard you say last time that to make a movie, you must learn the method school and take an acting training class. Should I go to that training class?" Demi asked.

   "Actor's studio, the director said their acting training is the best."

   I ask readers to recommend tickets and collections. If you have a friend who likes to watch Meiyu, please recommend this book to him. thanks.
