Chatty Hollywood

　　——So you get the contract? Spider-Man's girlfriend, Mary Jane's performance contract?

　　 Even though he is not actually facing this contract, Charlize, who is lurking in his subconscious mind, still feels unreal and dizzy. How is it so simple? What about the second round of auditions? What about the casting director's difficulties? What if there are any hints from the directors, producers and other actors in the crew?

　　 Charlize, who has been completely involved in the play, can’t believe this is true, and subconsciously has these doubts, so -

　　 "Why is it so simple? As a heroine, don't you need the director to decide by himself?"

　　 A look of suspicion appeared on Alexis's face, who had already stepped into the trap step by step.

Oops! ! !

　　 When making plans before, Charlotte was most worried about this place. On the one hand, one hundred steps are half and ninety, and a script is the most dangerous moment; on the other hand, because there is no one to cooperate, the place of signing the contract does seem a little sloppy and completely inconsistent with reality. Originally, Charlotte expected Charlize’s acting skills to play a role. However, it seems that Charlize, who had always performed perfectly before, finally made a mistake. Alexis, who was affected by the hallucinations, seemed to realize that something was wrong, maybe Soon he will lose control and wake up from hallucinations.

　　 "Generally speaking, it is true."

　　 There is no way, Charlotte, who once had the title of "Master" at the entrance of the hospital, had to play in person.

"But you have to know that the director you are about to face is James Cameron! The famous studio tyrant! In his films, no one is indispensable except himself! In his films, Whether the male protagonist or the female protagonist is actually just a vase! In his movies, the real protagonist is technology, the magnificent special effects that have never been seen before, and the shocking industrial scene! For him , It doesn’t matter who the hero or heroine is, as long as the acting skills are enough, the pay does not affect his budget for special effects!"

"But……"

　　 Although Charlotte was a little bewildering about Cameron’s introduction of praise or ridicule, it was obvious that Alexis was still a little bit hesitant.

In fact, Charlotte can probably understand that, whether it is Alexis or Charlize, for these girls floating in Hollywood, it is commonplace to suffer a loss and be cheated before they become famous, which makes nine out of ten of them. All of them are full of doubts about the world, especially when faced with possible opportunities for success, they are even more cautious. Because they know that opportunities may be real opportunities or bait placed in traps. This can be said to be a natural instinct developed by small animals at the bottom of the food chain.

　　 Faced with this skeptical instinct, Charlotte saw that kind encouragement could not work, so she simply did the opposite:

　　 "James believes in me, believes in my judgment, believes that I can help him choose the right actor, then, Alexis, are you suspicious of me?"

　　 "I, I am not—"

　　 Alexis was about to subconsciously excuse, Charlotte interrupted her again.

"No, you are skeptical! I know that you women always imagine us people with power as filthy. It seems that everything you get with your body can make you better than direct acknowledgment and help. Feeling real. Well, I don’t deny it, I don’t mind some enjoyment, but I also have my own professionalism. I will choose the person I feel is right, and then treat everything behind as gratitude, rather than as a threat The bargaining chip. Now, madam, I ask again, would you like to play Mary Jane in "Spiderman"!? Please don't waste my time, as I said before, no one is indispensable !"

　　 "Of course I do!"

Faced with Charlotte’s stern and harsh sarcasm, Alexis, who was so humiliated, felt relieved--in her opinion, the world is full of malice, and the harshness of the casting director is more real--she hurriedly I took over the contract from the other party and glanced over it hastily.

　　 "So little pay?"

"What do you think?"

　　 The mocking look on Charlotte's face became stronger.

"This is a superhero movie, and the leading actor is the focus. But even the key actor, because he wears a headgear more than 75% of the time, he doesn’t need to show his face, and he doesn’t need a well-known actor, so even the leading actor is paid for it. I can't afford it, let alone you are basically the heroine of the vase? Besides, James spends all his money on technology and special effects..."

"……alright, I got it."

Alexis reluctantly accepted the reality of ultra-low pay, but think about it carefully, even so, after all, this time is the heroine, and the pay is still much higher than those influential little characters before— In the end, she still signed her name on the contract——

　　Alexis Rachel Haydn!

"now it's right!"

　　 Charlotte accepted the signed contract, the impatient and ridicule on his face immediately faded, turning into a big smiling face, as if he had always been kind to others.

"Trust me, Alexis! You made no wrong choice, you will become a big star!! But before that, I have to take a picture of you to go through some formalities, or you Brought your own photos?"

"Photo?"

　　Alexis looked blank,

　　 "I didn't bring it, but isn't it on my resume?"

　　 "That's right! But there are some procedures later, and new photos are needed. Okay, no more trouble, I'll take a picture for you!"

　　 Talking, Charlotte picked up an iGood Polaroid camera from the table behind him and pointed it at the somewhat restrained Alexis.

　　 "Okay, say ‘Cheese’!"

　　 "Cheese!"

"very good!"

　　 The flash flickered, and then with a "click", a color photo of Alexis's bust was spit out from the camera. Seeing this colorful photo, Charlotte shook her head.

　　 "Why? Didn't it take a good shot?"

"That's not the case. I just think this Polaroid camera is good and ready to take, but the problem is that the photo paper is really expensive, and the photos taken in this way are not suitable for long-term storage. If this continues, it will sooner or later. Replaced by more promising digital camera technology ~www.NovelMTL.com~ At this point, Charlotte patted her head suddenly.

"Hey, I have committed this old self-talking problem again! Sorry, Alexis! By the way, can you sign your name on this photo again? I personally have a hobby. , When choosing a role, I will take a photo of the actors selected by me, and then have them sign to commemorate them. When I am old, this is my precious collection. At that time, I will talk to everyone Like a long-winded old man, look through these photos to see who has become a big star, and then recall the embarrassment of their audition!"

　　 Looking at the color photo of herself that Charlotte handed over, Alexis couldn't help feeling a little in a daze. The casting director in front of me was mean for a while and kind, and the contrast between the front and the back was really big, making her at a loss. But on the other hand, she was originally full of skepticism, but because of the other's relaxed attitude, she also relaxed at the same time.

"Give you!"

　　 After all, the other party chose himself, and the necessary thanks are still indispensable. Moreover, it is not a shameful photo. In the end, Alexis decided to satisfy the other party's little hobby.

"thanks!"

　　 Charlotte took the photo and smiled satisfied. He took the photo signed by Alexis and the contract together, looked at the blond girl in front of him, and suddenly yelled:

　　 "Alexis Rachel Haydn!"

"Hey!?"

　　 Accompanied by Alexis's suspicious answer, a fierce whirlwind blew in the room again...
