Once Upon a Time In Hollywood

Chapter 312 You **** guy!

Da da da.

Da da da.

New Jersey, East Brunswick.

On the second floor of an inconspicuous house, a young guy with curly hair was lying in front of the table, looking at the window sill with distracted eyes. On the left hand side, layers of paper documents alternated horizontally and vertically. On the right hand side, 'Never stop ' Newton was there to expound the truth.

The bloodshot eyes and tired face made the dark oily head more like a bird's nest, and he was confused all over his body, like a stone statue. When he was lifeless, the ringing sound of calling made him startled .

Full of anticipation, he picked up the phone on the table, scanned the screen with a nervous expression, and his clean movements were like a hungry person seeing delicious food, but after he saw the caller ID clearly, his upright body was like a discouraged ball. It collapsed directly.

Leaning back, he sighed.

Press to answer, the phone is attached to the ear.

The joy of strengthening the spirit is incompatible with the current atmosphere.

But even so, he still opened his mouth easily, and took the initiative to say hello to the other party first, "Hi~Annie~"

"Hi~Jessie~" A crisp female voice came from the other end of the phone, "I called you suddenly, didn't I bother you?"

"No! No! It's only eight o'clock, and I just finished my morning exercise." The young guy lied without changing his face or beating his heart.

But just when he was looking around, trying to find something to hold in his hand to cover up his guilty conscience, the document that looked like a high mountain made him laugh at himself and shook his head—‘Yes! Just finished the morning exercise! '

While feeling emotional, he also asked, "Call me so early, what's the matter?"

"Ah~ yes~" The woman on the other end of the phone seemed to be organizing her words, but it was more like she was having a hard time expressing her thoughts. After pondering for a few seconds, she finally made up her mind and said slowly: "Half an hour ago, Kevin Murphy called me..."

"Huh?" Upon hearing the name, the self-mockery on the young man's face disappeared instantly.

The woman continued: "Then, fifteen minutes ago, Pam Vesey also called me..."

"What?" The young man seemed to have guessed something, and he straightened up when he was leaning on the back of the chair.

Such a movement made the young woman on the opposite side sigh, and she didn't give too much away, and took the initiative to tell the news she got, "Kevin and Pam both told me that the vacation is over, let's go back to the team this week."

It seems that they want to put the greatest pressure on the other party, but they are more like a staunch supporter of the belief that "long-term pain is worse than short-term pain", so when the young woman throws out this result, the process also follows—

"Because the ratings of our drama were average, Fox felt that there was no need to continue filming, so they wanted to cut our project."

"But at the insistence of Kevin and Pam, Fox agreed to let us shoot the rest of the episode within two months."

"That is to say, in addition to the twelve episodes we have already filmed, the remaining ten episodes only have eight weeks of creation time."

"So... don't delay any longer, my sister is waiting for you in Los Angeles..."

"That's all for now, I'm going to pack my luggage, see you in Los Angeles, later~"

"Beep beep..."

The continuous words are like waves, washing the heart of the young man, but even if the tone is gentle, the pressure on the face can still make the edges and corners of the reef living by the coast disappear, making the helpless young man close his eyes in pain, Reluctantly leaning back.

"Really chopped?"

The young guy muttered to himself.

"Really cut..."

The young guy hugged his head in pain.

"It's really cut!"

The young guy stood up angrily, swept his hands vigorously, and overturned all the mountains-high documents on the desk to the ground!

"AHH!!"

The cathartic roar soared into the sky, and the violent hands hit the table.

While he was kicking the table to vent his anger, the document that he pushed to the ground was also quietly lying at his feet.

Because his actions were too violent, the black cover has been opened. If you peek at the text on it, you will find that the footers of these documents are all marked with the same name—"GetReal".

...

"Pam and Kevin also figured it out, and let you make this call!"

On the other side, when the young woman put down her phone and shrugged helplessly and shook her head, the middle-aged beautiful woman who was packing her daughter's luggage squatted aside and complained directly: "You are just an actor! They let you do it Filmmaker's life!"

"This is not reasonable at all!"

"But you still picked it up!"

"How old are you? Can't you learn to say no?"

"Mom!"

Hearing her mother's concerned preaching, the girl yelled and retorted: "Isn't this what you taught me? After you let me enter the industry, treat everyone kindly, because you never know, Who else is behind them!"

"I taught you?" Upon hearing this, the middle-aged beautiful woman stopped what she was doing, raised her head and glared at her daughter, and said, "Then shall I make you treat everyone well? I will let you follow their instructions." Ask to do everything?"

"Today, Pam and Kevin didn't want to communicate with Jesse's bad temper, so I asked you to help tell him to join the team, you did."

"Then they dragged out the red sofa for you to climb tomorrow, do you still take the initiative to take off your clothes and lie down on it? Hmm!"

Such words made the girl smile, and seeing her mother's irritable look of wanting to eat herself alive, she got up on her own initiative, threw herself on the other's back, and rubbed her cheek on her mother's neck affectionately.

"Mom~"

"Kevin and Pam are not like that~"

"They just thought I had a good relationship with Jesse, so they asked me to help pass it on~"

"And didn't you say that before? Pam and Jim Carrey know each other, we can get closer~"

"Kevin is from Disney, and being friends with him will save us from detours~"

"I remember everything you said, don't worry~ Today is just a small matter~"

The sweet and greasy words combined with the cat-like coquettishness gradually dissipated the anger of the middle-aged beautiful woman.

Angrily, she raised her hand and patted her daughter. Seeing that she didn't want to let go, the middle-aged beautiful woman let her lie on her back, and said instead: "It's really a small thing to help spread the word, but you and Jie What's going on with West?"

"He is only sixteen years old, please don't make mistakes?"

"At the beginning, when you told me that you wanted to act, I made it clear to you that the profession of an actor is very hard."

"If you are not famous, you want to be famous. When you become famous, you want to climb to the top. After you become famous, you will be surrounded by people."

“They will spy on your life, your work, and everything about you, making you feel like you are living under countless pairs of eyes, so that you will never be able to enjoy the quiet life of a normal person!”

"In this case, you are no longer yourself! Because there will be an unprecedented separation between your life and work! Because of work, you need to show your beauty to the public, but because of life, you cannot always Guaranteed to be beautiful, you can't be yourself, you can only be what the public wants to see!"

"At that time, you told me that you could bear all this."

"Now? You don't like Jesse, do you?"

"Although I won't interfere in your private life, there is one thing I want to make clear to you first."

"Actors who have just entered the industry are not worthy of having feelings. A relationship at this time will only hinder your career."

The earnest and earnest attitude made the girl lying on her mother dumbfounded.

As soon as his body softened, he rolled directly onto the sofa, put his hands on the pillow, and looked up at his mother, "Mom, I really have nothing to do with Jesse."

"Do you think I believe it?" The middle-aged beautiful woman asked back.

"Ms. Macaulay, Jesse Eisenberg is really not my type!" The girl pouted.

The middle-aged beautiful woman rolled her eyes and gave the lore, "Miss Hathaway, but he is Jewish~"

When she heard the word Jew, the girl felt as if she had been hit in the head with a sledgehammer, and she was stunned on the spot.

After staring at her mother for a long time, the girl shook her head dumbfounded.

That's right, the guy who was incompetent and furious because the project was cut before was Jesse Eisenberg who would star in "You Now You See Me", and the girl who conveyed the news to him was Nolan's version of "Batman". Catwoman, Anne Hathaway, as for the item being discussed? That's the Fox TV series—"Dreams Come True."

"Dreams Come True" is a youth comedy, and the purpose of its birth is to help Fox TV develop the youth market. Because of this, when selecting actors, Fox is of course mainly people of the right age; in this way, junior high school began to learn acting, Jesse Eisenberg, who performed on the Broadway stage in 1996, became the target of Fox's investigation, and Anne Hathaway, who studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in 1993, was also rightfully selected by other selected.

Well, this selection is actually full of water.

Unlike Jesse Eisenberg, who has three years of performance experience, Anne Hathaway only performed at Carnegie Hall for three days before getting an invitation, and the reason why she was successfully selected was purely because Her mother, help her.

"Dreams Come True" starring Jon Turney was born on Broadway, and Anne Hathaway's mother is a well-known Broadway actor. The two had known each other as early as 1985, and her mother also helped him Got a job, so...

When there is a project that can be plugged in, isn’t it a matter of course to do a favor?

It is precisely because Anne Hathaway has a Broadway background, so after entering the crew, she and Jesse Eisenberg, who is also from Broadway, got so close that everyone in the crew mistakenly believed that they were in fall in love.

In this way, when the project has problems and is about to be abolished by Fox, the guys who don't want to deal with Jesse Eisenberg's bad temper naturally think of Anne Hathaway to help deliver the news.

In the eyes of the crew members, this is just an ordinary help, but in the eyes of Anne-Hathaway's mother, it is an ominous sign that hinders her daughter's promotion. She has been in the showbiz for more than 20 years She knows in her heart that what an actress is most afraid of is rumors of scandals as soon as she debuts. Before she has a work, her rich emotional experience will discourage filmmakers.

If her daughter doesn't mix in this line of work, she doesn't care who she talks to, how many times she talks to, but it is precisely because her daughter has to rush into this line of work that she worries about it, her future, her emotions, and her life.

But in Anne Hathaway's view, her mother's worries are completely unnecessary, because she is really not interested in Jesse Eisenberg. However, what her mother said about her Jewish identity reminded her that now In the circle you live in, who is the boss! Who will be favored! Who is more likely to reap success!

Because of this, Anne Hathaway, who was lying on the sofa, suddenly asked, "Mom?"

"Huh?" The middle-aged beautiful woman who helped her daughter rearrange her clothes did not raise her head, and spoke with her nose.

"You said Jesse or me, who is more likely to become famous?" Aunt Liang, who had an answer in mind, asked what was in her mind.

However, the middle-aged beautiful woman shook her head and said, "I don't know."

"Why? Isn't he a Jew? Isn't Hollywood what they say?" Aunt Guliang was a little surprised.

Such words made the middle-aged beautiful woman laugh, "You are indeed right, but there are also divisions among the Jews!"

"The Jews are not monolithic. When faced with external pressure, they will form a group, and when internal conflicts arise, they will also fight against their own race. The most typical example is Harvey Weinstein. His relationship with his peers is not good. , and Steven Spielberg is the guy who likes to unite the people the most, and the two of them have conflicts and don’t communicate often.”

When Mom said this, Aunt Liang immediately understood, "Then you mean, who will Jessie be with in the future?"

"If he follows a powerful person, his chances of becoming famous will be greatly increased."

"And if he follows the weak, he will be suppressed unless he is very lucky?"

"Yes, the meaning is about the same..." The middle-aged beautiful woman answered casually, but before she finished speaking, she became alert when she smelled something unusual, "Wait... What do you mean? Do you want to see him?" background, in deciding whether to associate with him?"

"Wow! You just entered the industry and want to take a shortcut?!"

The middle-aged beautiful woman is very angry.

Back then, in order to prevent her daughter from entering the show business circle, she voluntarily gave up the Broadway stage.

And now, before the filming of the first work is finished, the daughter who entered the circle wants to try to go wrong?

This, this, this... Let's see if she doesn't beat her to death!

The suddenly raised voice and the fierce face made the little girl tremble, seeing her mother was about to take off her shoes and whip herself, she quickly raised her hands to hold her head, curled up her body, and explained excitedly: "No! No! No!"

"Mom, listen to me!"

"I'm really just asking casually!"

"As you know, his father is a university professor! His mother is a medical school teacher! The elders in his family don't mix in the entertainment industry at all! That's why he is very concerned about the "GetReal" project!"

"And now, Fox is going to cut this project, of course he is the saddest!"

"Because even if the project is cut, I still have you, and he has to find the project by himself!"

"That's why I want to know, is the only way for a guy like him to embrace the same clan?"

The unreserved words made the middle-aged beautiful woman heave a sigh of relief.

Looking at the quail-like daughter, she put down the shoes in her hand and asked, "Is that really the case?"

"Hmm." The words came out from the dumpling in a husky voice.

"Okay, get up~" The middle-aged beautiful woman believed her daughter's words, and said, "Don't talk about getting support from your peers, in Hollywood, as long as there are big names willing to take you, then this is the fastest way to get promoted."

"Look at Natalie Portman, a movie can explode."

"And Drew Barrymore, after so many years of tossing, he can still get the book of "Charlie's Angels" this year."

"The most typical one is Kate Winslet, right? I heard that her aunt asked Arnold Schwarzenegger to go to James Cameron to help her tear up "Titanic", that was "Titanic" A movie made her a winner in life! No. 1 box office in film history! Oscar for Best Actress! My God! This is something that all girls dare not even think about!"

Hearing the sour words, Aunt Liang blinked her eyes.

The story of a winner in life, she has heard her mother complain many times.

In fact, she always felt that her mother could not eat grapes and said grapes were sour.

What about the No. 1 box office in film history and the best actress Oscar?

The love between Kate and Roland is the most worth talking about!

Of course, Anne Hathaway will not act as a lever on this kind of issue. After her mother's voice fell, she continued: "These examples you mentioned are mostly related to Jews...Natalie- Portman is backed by George Lucas, Drew Barrymore is backed by Steven Spielberg, so Kate Winslet is the British gang?"

"Looking at it this way, Kate Winslet is the weakest."

"Who told you?"

The middle-aged beautiful woman rolled her daughter's eyes and said, "Among these three, Kate Winslet is the strongest!"

"Huh?" The aunt was confused, "Why?"

"Because of her man~" The middle-aged beautiful woman said as it should be: "Her fiance is Roland Allen."

"What? Isn't Roland Allen an actor?"

"Didn't all the salary he earned in these years go to buy Berkshire Hathaway's stock?" The aunt frowned and said: "And George Lucas has Lucasfilm, Steven -Spielberg has Amblin Entertainment and DreamWorks!"

The surprised words made the middle-aged beautiful woman snort, "It's just that the media didn't report on him."

After speaking so far, she waved her hand, too lazy to explain to her daughter.

Such behavior made little Guliang very uncomfortable.

The half-talking behavior is like a kitten stepping on your body and stepping on it halfway. When you just feel good, hey, it’s gone. That kind of inability to stop will make you have a kind of grabbing it and slamming it The urge to take a breath.

Seeing that her mother wanted to pack her luggage and not speak, the little girl immediately got up from the sofa, like a piece of brown candy, rubbed it together, and said, "My good mother, tell me..."

"This is not a secret, don't hide it from me..."

"Isn't Kate and Roland getting married for a long time? What else is there?"

"Roland's greatest achievement is nine championships in ten years, right? I have never heard of other things..."

"Tell me... Tell me... Tell me... Mom!"

At this moment, little Guliang is like a Chai, pestering its master for food.

After being annoyed by her daughter, the middle-aged beautiful woman, who actually knew little about it, could only say: "Okay, okay!"

"I'll just say one thing."

"Roland Allen is an actor on the surface, but in fact, he is more powerful than George Lucas and Steven Spielberg combined! This kind of power not only refers to wealth, but also power!"

"Aha?" The little girl looked in disbelief, "Why?"

"No reason!" The middle-aged beautiful woman waved her hand impatiently, and said, "Anyway, you only need to know one thing. There is no project in Hollywood that he can't get, only the projects he wants to get!"

"This includes George Lucas and Steven Spielberg's projects!"

"And if he wants to sign someone..."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged beautiful woman paused, so the little girl couldn't wait to answer: "And then? How about it?"

The persistent questioning made the middle-aged beautiful woman helpless.

Glaring at his daughter, he said: "If he wants to sign someone, then signing the contract directly is the best choice!"

"No matter what project, no matter how harsh the contract, as long as you sign it, it will definitely become an A-list!"

The swear words made it even more difficult for Xiao Guliang to understand, but just when she wanted to use the spirit of breaking the casserole and asking the end, and continued to ask, Ding Lingling's mobile phone suddenly appeared.

The conversation paused, and he went away looking for the sound.

Such a move made the middle-aged beautiful woman breathe a sigh of relief.

However, before she could rejoice for a while because of her daughter's departure, the little girl Liang who had just walked out to answer the phone came back with her mobile phone in hand. Not only that, while covering the receiver with one hand, she also kicked Get off mom.

"Why are you kicking me?" The middle-aged beautiful woman was very puzzled.

"Someone is looking for me..." Aunt Liang told the truth.

"I'll find you if I'm looking for you!" Hearing these words, the middle-aged beautiful woman almost lost her breath.

She suddenly felt that her daughter was a little stupid, "You pick it up! What are you doing with the receiver?"

"Uh... Mainly I've only heard his name but don't know him..."

(oェ｀o)

Aunt Liang showed her innocence, "He said he was Jon Landau, the producer of "Titanic" Jon Landau, and then he came to me because he had a project and wanted me to try it... "

"Wow! Really? Then tell him, we have time anytime!"

The middle-aged beautiful woman is in a hurry. If it wasn't for the wrong timing, she would pick up her slippers and smoke her daughter again!

Jon Landau!

That's James Cameron's queen producer!

Such a good opportunity is in front of you, what are you doing in a daze!

Agreed!

As for liars?

Who would pretend to be a big guy like Jon Landau?

Once you meet, you can verify your identity!

However, the more excited the middle-aged beautiful woman behaved, the more scared Aunt Liang became. Seeing that her mother's eyes were about to burst into flames, she quickly pursed her lips and said the next words in one go—

"However, he also said that the project in hand belongs to Roland Allen...he is just an agent, an agent..."

"What?!!"

The middle-aged beautiful woman who wanted to smoke her daughter was stunned.

After being dumbfounded for three seconds, she said eagerly, "What are you talking about? Roland Allen?"

"Hmm..." The little girl swallowed her saliva, and nodded cautiously.

And this action also made the middle-aged beautiful woman furious, "You **** guy!"

"What did I tell you just now!"

"No matter what project, no matter how harsh the contract, as long as you sign it, it will definitely be on the A-list!"

"Hurry up! Give me your phone!"

"If the opportunity is missed, see how I will deal with you!"

Probe, seize the opportunity.

When the middle-aged beautiful woman held the phone to her ear, she who was still angry suddenly changed her face.

"Hi! Jon! Still there?"

"Yes, yes, yes! I am Annie's mother! I'm really sorry~ I was just downstairs~ I was far away from her~"

"There is a project I want to invite Annie to try? Or the heroine?"

"No problem! No problem! We just happen to be heading back to Los Angeles today!"

"Ah! Good! I'll call you when I get there~"

"May I take the liberty to ask, this project is..."

"Roland Allen's full investment in Warcraft film and television? Ah~ ok ok~"

"Hey hey~ I'll be there on time~ Don't worry~"

The ecstatic act made the sister-in-law Liang's eyes widen.

Because this is the happiest mother she has ever seen in her life.

Although her mother has never made a movie, she has won a Tony Award for the Broadway play she starred in.

But even so, she was not so happy on the day of the award.

‘Why is mother so happy? '

Little Aunt Liang was a little puzzled.

What made her even more puzzled was—

‘Is Roland Allen really that magical? '

Feeling curious, Auntie Liang turned her head and looked at the poster she had posted in the room.

That’s a poster for Titanic.

Jack and Rose, in the bow.

Note: ① Jesse Eisenberg is Jewish, and his backer was lucky to come out. After the "Dreams Come True" project was cut, he went to be a script gunner and worked in some script studios in New York. When he was working, he met Woody Allen's lawyer, and the other party took him The script I wrote was given to Woody Allen, and then...Jewish status gave Juxi a quick promotion. ②Anne-Hathaway's mother is a Broadway actor, she won the Tony Award in 1987, the most original version of "Les Miserables" is her mother's role as Fantine, and then Hathaway replayed it again in the film version in 13 years, Not only that, but the bishop in the movie version, Colm Wilkinson, is also the protagonist of the musical version. It is no exaggeration to say that "Les Miserables" is a custom-made film for Austria, and a group of people who play musicals put musicals on the screen. As for what she said was chosen by the director due to **** luck, just listen to it. You must know that in the "Princess Diaries" project, she squeezed out Liv Tyler. And the projects since her debut, like "Nicholas Nickle Bay", were all directed by the director her mother moved from Broadway. ③Anne-Hathaway's mother is also named Kate... This name is too popular, and it is too embarrassing to write. ④ The relationship between Juanxi and Hathaway is very good. Hathaway recommended Juanxi to play "Justice League".
