The girl's face was exquisite and flawless, as if it had been sculpted by an artist himself. She had black hair, a fair face, and a high nose bridge. Perhaps it was for the audition. The other party was wearing an office girl's professional suit, holding a With only a white handbag, the whole person is sitting on the chair opposite, exuding a quiet and beautiful atmosphere all over his body.

Deborah in "Once Upon a Time in America" was just a thirteen-year-old girl, but many years later, the girl who finally got rid of her embarrassing career with "Requiem for a Dream" and "A Beautiful Mind" is no longer as stunning as before. , only a bit of maturity and intellectuality accumulated over the years. Therefore, for her, around the age of twenty is the most amazing moment in her life.

Eric blurted out without looking at the information at hand, "Miss Connery, please introduce yourself first."

"Hi everyone, my name is Jennifer Lane Connelly, I am nineteen years old, and I am currently studying English literature at Yale University..."

The girl's voice was slightly hoarse, with a bit of charm. In the following questioning session, Jennifer Connelly still acted calmly, and there was no problem until the performance session: Although Jennifer Connelly has participated in many movies , but has not received professional acting training, so his acting skills are still very young, and he even has some facial paralysis.

But it doesn't matter, no one is born to run, and can be trained. The point is, Eric can be sure that Jennifer Connelly can definitely impress the audience. Moreover, when the other party shows a weak expression when being hijacked by the robber Andy, it will completely arouse everyone's sympathy. The lethality is huge.

After all the links were completed, Eric ticked Jennifer Connelly's name before he looked up and said, "Miss Connelly, can I treat you to dinner tonight?"

All the staff in the audition room were also stunned. It was too straightforward. If you want unspoken rules, you should avoid us anyway, and give everyone a little good thought, right

Jennifer Connelly, who was about to leave, was also stunned. The girl's face changed a few times. She came back from Italy specially for this audition. The director was a little unhappy.

But if she can get this role, she can completely ignore "Death of the Swan" and go to Europe to shoot art films, which is a road that many actresses have to choose when they encounter bottlenecks in their development in Hollywood. European films in this era have not completely declined, so many actors are hoping to perform in European films with the expectation of being able to win at European film festivals. Dependence.

If the other party had invited her in private, Jennifer Connelly might not have hesitated too much, but in front of so many people, under the watchful eyes of everyone, it was difficult for a proud girl to let go of her reserve for a while. So it seems to be in a dilemma.

"Sorry, I was rude, Miss Connery, thank you for your audition, we will inform you of the result as soon as possible, you can leave now."

Eric really regretted the invitation just now. The original intention was to help the girl out, but Jennifer Connelly thought that the other party took her hesitation as a rejection. If this was the case, then she would definitely not get the role .

Standing there hesitating, she didn't push the door to leave. After a few seconds of hesitation, Jennifer Connelly said in a low voice, "Mr. Williams, I... I would."

"What?" Eric, who had lowered his head to write something, raised his head again. The girl's voice was very low just now, and he really didn't hear it clearly.

Jennifer Connelly was blushed by Eric's rhetorical question. In front of so many people, she really didn't want to say it again.

Nicole couldn't help reminding: "Hey, Eric, don't go too far, the girl agrees."

Eric just realized it, nodded quickly and said, "That's really great, Miss Connery." Eric quickly wrote a series of numbers on a piece of paper and handed them to the girl, saying: "At seven o'clock in the evening, I hope to arrive Miss Connery, you can contact me sometime, and I'll pick you up. After all, auditions are still going on, and many girls are still waiting."

Jennifer Connelly lowered her head and quickly folded the note and put it in her handbag, and left the audition room in a hurry.

"Hey, Eric, is it just settled?" Nickel couldn't help asking.

Eric nodded: "If there is no accident, it will be her."

"Then do we still need to continue auditioning?"

"Of course," Eric let go of the next actor's information: "So many people are still waiting, and maybe even better ones can be found, so let's go ahead and call the next one."

Everyone in the audition room knew that Eric already had a candidate in his mind, and the next audition was even more unmotivated. Until five o'clock in the afternoon, when the last audition girl left, everyone rushed away impatiently.

Eric returned to his office, tidied up and was about to leave when Jeffrey knocked on the door and walked in.

Passing a document to Eric, Jeffrey said: "Eric, the latest negotiation results, CAA has made some concessions, Cruise and Hanks have the same conditions, this time it is 5 million Salary plus 12% profit sharing."

Eric opened it and looked at it, thought for a while and said, "Forget it, Jeffrey, don't talk about it for a few days, let's wait until this week is over, "Veyron Killing Array" will be released on Friday, and it is estimated that next week There will be a lot of fun to watch."

"I'm also here to tell you this," Jeffrey said with a smile, "The movie critics did not do very well in the test screenings of "The Dragon Killer" some time ago, and it has premiered in various parts of North America in the past few days. As a result, the voices of praise and criticism were equally divided. Although United Artists recently used the gimmick of Richard Gere's resignation from "The Wind and Moon" to create a hype, the effect was not very good. I guess many people are waiting to see the joke. .”

Eric curled his lips: "Whatever, as long as it's good for us anyway, I guess after the box office hit the box office of "Dragon Killing", caa won't have such confidence to continue to spend with us, otherwise Neither Cruise nor Hanks would say yes."

"Should we try to contact actors from wma and other brokerage companies to make an illusion of changing the protagonist?"

Eric shook his head and vetoed: "No, at least not for the time being. It hasn't reached that point yet. Let's see the situation."

The two of them didn't talk too much, and they left after a few words. No one thought that "The Dragon Killing Array" was like a fuse, and the commotion far exceeded Eric's expectations.
