I got an out-of-the-blue call from a guy who asked me if I was interested in starring in a movie.
Simon Westeros.
Simon knows.
Westeros, it seems, I have heard of it somewhere.
By the way, at Robert's party.
Robert Duvall, Oscar winner for Best Actor, although thirty years older than her, is her senior brother.
Many years ago, Robert Duvall also studied theater acting under Sanford Masonner. She was lucky enough to be signed by WMA Vice President Jonathan Friedman, which was also the reason why Robert was the matchmaker.
After moving to Los Angeles, this very enthusiastic senior brother Wang Nian even invited her to a party at his house last weekend and introduced her to many Hollywood stars.
Occasionally, I seemed to hear someone talking about a guy named Westeros.
A very strange last name.
So I immediately wrote it down.
But I don’t quite know what the other party does.
Maybe it's another person.
Then he asked the other party very vigilantly how he knew his contact information.
Sensing her vigilance, the other end of the phone explained the reason.
He is also a client of Jonathan, and his contact information was obtained from the agent.
Not so easy to believe.
After calling her agent, Jonathan seemed a little surprised to hear her story, but he still confirmed what the other person said. Finally, he suggested that she take over the other person's role, claiming that it would probably be a very wonderful experience for her. experience.
The advantages of signing under the name of a Hollywood gold medal agent are very obvious, but the disadvantages are also very prominent.
At least, as an agent with more than thirty clients, he has been very busy recently and doesn't have much time to take care of her.
Since she wants to make a career in Hollywood, she is also prepared to have enough patience.
During this time, I was even considering finding a part-time job to earn some living expenses.
Or go back to New York to perform in stage plays for a while.
You can never be idle.
She comes from a good family background and doesn't have to worry about making a living.
In fact, most of the men and women who can drift in Hollywood for a long time have good family support.
Those who lack the foundation of acting need to learn acting; they need to prepare carefully before each audition; in order to star in a movie or TV series, they often have to participate in various skills remedial classes...
All of this requires a lot of time and money.
Therefore, although it cannot be said absolutely, it is indeed difficult for people from the lower class to achieve success in Hollywood. They often spend most of their energy just to make a living, and they do not have much free time to chase their so-called dreams.
Many people cannot persist and may even fall into another equally large 'movie' industry in Los Angeles.
coordinate.
San Fernando Valley.
Just like Stallone before he became famous.
It is said that I secretly watched that video tape back then.
Shame.
The stain on 'Rocky's' life.
Since the agent confirmed that there was no problem, after some consideration, she agreed to meet with him.
Sunday at 2pm.
The location is next to Douglas Park in Midtown Santa Monica.
He drove his brand-new Chrysler sedan there on time, and then he was let go.
This is too much.
I originally wanted to leave, but after thinking about it I made a call.
The old man with a heavy accent still answered the phone. He mumbled a bit, and then it was transferred to him.
The tone on the other side was very apologetic, saying that he had a flat tire and was repairing the car. Then he gave her an address again and said that he could treat her to dinner in the evening to express his apology.
After thinking about the address, it seemed not too far.
never mind.
For the sake of your tone being so sincere.
I restarted the car and wandered through the streets of Santa Monica for a while, finally finding a motel near the southern edge of Santa Monica's northern district.
Parking the car in the open space in front of the hotel, opening the door and getting out, she glanced around.
There were several cars parked quietly nearby, none of them in a state of repair. On the contrary, under the eaves of the hotel, there was an upside-down bicycle next to a leisurely old man wearing a floral shirt and beach shorts.
The young man behind the bicycle.
Um.
It must be him.
So he walked over.
Seeing her appear, the leisurely old man patted the young man on the shoulder and reminded her.
The other party raised his head, saw her appearance, and stood up with a smile.
A guy with a pretty good-looking smile, very tall, handsome, with very healthy tanned skin.
He should be an actor too.
I don’t know why I want to make a movie again.
Anyway, boys like to play around.
"Hello, I'm Sandra Bullock." Seeing the boy reaching out, he shook hands with the other person and said, "We just talked on the phone."
"Simon Westeros," he introduced himself in the same way, and said again: "I'm really sorry. When I was about to rush over, I found that the tire was flat, and I was worried that I would miss it if I went late, so I stayed at the hotel and waited for your call. "
Boys tend to be generous in front of beautiful girls.
seem.
Girls do the same thing in front of handsome boys.
Although she was a cheerleader in high school, she knew she was not very pretty.
So, at this moment, I feel very generous.
"It's okay," she shook her head cheerfully, and pointed to the other person's bicycle: "So, are you repairing it yourself?"
"I just went to buy the tools after I talked to you on the phone. It will take a while," he explained, and made an inviting gesture: "Let's go over there and chat."
She followed him to the eaves of the motel and politely said hello to the old man who brought a stool for him.
The other party nodded to her with a smile, and then muttered something to Simon Westeros, and glanced at her from time to time, winking and looking disrespectful.
It sounds gurgling.
Um.
This should be in Spanish.
She grew up in Germany as a child. In addition to English, she can also speak German.
Spanish is not available.
He could only sit down next to him with some embarrassment and let the boy next to him chatter to the old man.
It's definitely not a good thing to say.
However, although the skin color is darker, it should obviously be from the sun. Judging from the shape of his face, he does not have Spanish ancestry, but is more Germanic. It was unexpected that he could speak Spanish so fluently.
I can also repair cars.
I wonder if the water pipes will be repaired.
I remember when I was a child, a water pipe burst in my house, and my father was in a hurry. He only knew how to call the workers, and he didn't even know how to turn off the water valve first.
With this thought in mind, I sat on the stool and watched him inflate the tires, rub the tires in his hands, and turn them little by little close to his face.
The old man next to him mumbled something, probably accusing him of the wrong method.
Then came his retort.
I couldn't help but be curious and asked, "What is this doing?"
He didn't answer. He spun the tire in his hand for a moment, stopped, smiled and said to her, "Come close to me."
He moved his face obediently and put the tire over him.
A small puff of air hit his face.
I feel inexplicably comfortable.
Before he could enjoy it enough, he quickly moved away and said, "There's an air leak here."
As he spoke, he picked up a toothpick, carefully inserted it into the small hole he had just discovered, and began to rotate the tire again.
This time she understood that he was probably checking for other air leaks.
Looking at him working hard, she suddenly remembered what her agent said to her on the phone yesterday. Perhaps, this would really be a very wonderful experience for her.
