Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"Wait a minute, where's Freddie?" Ronald glanced left and right, and Demi Moore's husband, rocker Freddie Moore, did not appear nearby.

"Coward, Freddy and I had a falling out." Demi Moore took the initiative to come up and hold Ronald's arm.

"That's not what I meant." Ronald put his arm around Demi's shoulders, half-protected her in front of him, walked a few steps forward, a distance away from the door, then lowered his head and whispered to her quietly, "You do it on your own. ”

Demi Moore turned to look at Ronald, very satisfied with her charm. As expected, Ronald began to ask herself if she came alone. She turned around, faced Ronald and replied:

"The producer asked me to come. I'm looking for the heroine of 'Flashdance'. But what he said was vague and he had to refer to other people's opinions. Ronnie, can you already influence Paramount?" Casting? I see you are familiar with Don and Jerry. Did you come with them?"

"Poor girl." Ronald said and gave Demi a hard blow. "Mr. Eisner, the president of Paramount, has chosen the heroine this afternoon."

"What?" The smile on Demi Moore's face visibly froze for a moment, and then she began to get angry, "Fuck Don Simpson, he found out and deliberately didn't tell me and asked me to accompany him..."

Demi said and started rushing towards the door.

"Calm down!" Ronald quickly hugged Demi Moore.

Demi kept moving forward, trying to get rid of Ronald's control, but she was not strong enough, so she could only lift her two feet and kick forward desperately.

"Let me go, let me go." Demi kicked and screamed.

"Hi, Ronald, it's rude to be in such a hurry with a lady." British actor Michael Caine happened to come out.

"Huh? No," Ronald felt that Kane had misunderstood. "It's not what you think. Demi is my friend. She had a misunderstanding with one of the guests inside."

Demi Moore also calmed down and stood firm from Ronald's embrace, "Don't get me wrong, Mr. Kane, Ronnie and I were just playing around."

"You Americans are always very straightforward and your friend reminds me of Natalie Wood who I dated when I was younger, may God rest her soul in peace, she was also very passionate."

"Where is Michael Caine? (Where is Mibsp;?)"

At this moment Don Simpson's yell came from the open door.

"I think someone is looking for you, Mr. Kane." Ronald put one arm around Demi to prevent her from impulsively rushing in to settle the score with Don Simpson, and pointed to the door with the other hand.

"No, I think he's looking for another friend."

"Ah?" Ronald was stunned. Is there an actor named Michael Caine?

"Pfft", Demi Moore in her arms laughed, "He's talking about my... where is it? (Where is My Coca...?)"

"I'm leaving. Goodbye Ronald. I'm glad I could chat with you today. I look forward to meeting you again in the future." Michael Caine saw that Demi no longer struggled, but behaved quite intimately with Ronald, like a couple. A little slapstick.

"Your girlfriend has a very strong chin. She'll be a good actress."

"Didi..." Agent Niceta's car has arrived at the door.

Ronald put his arms around Demi Moore and asked her to get in the car.

"Rick, this is my friend Demi, can you take her home first?"

"No, just go to your house." Demi Moore interrupted Ronald's address.

"Miss Moore, I am an agent and Ronald is my client." Niceta said from the front row. He was not Ronald's driver.

"You know me?" Demi Moore asked.

"I saw you play Jackie on 'General Hospital.'"

Niceta knew that Demi Moore was a popular soap opera actress. This kind of girl knew the rules and wouldn't cause too much trouble.

Ronald has been relatively disciplined in his private life since he signed with CAA for so long. However, a successful man in the entertainment industry is still a young and successful man, so it is not out of the ordinary to pick up a girl at a party and take him home.

Ronald felt Demi slowly crawling into his arms in the back seat, and he decided to do something to change the atmosphere, "Rick, do you know what High\u0026 is?"

"This is a way of dividing the film industry that started in the 1970s." Niceta looked at Ronald in the rearview mirror.

"High concept is relative to low concept. High concept movies can often summarize the plot in one sentence, with stars, peripheral products, distinctive dramatic characters, etc. Low concept pays attention to character development, subtle plots and Emotions, it is not easy to summarize the main plot in one paragraph.

Demi Moore also stopped and began to listen to the senior agent's explanation. As an actress who has just entered the industry, her whole day life consists of acting training, auditions, and more auditions. She does not know much about the overall development of the film.

“Fsh Dance is a typical high-concept movie in which beautiful workers dance in a bar and meet their bosses to change their destiny.

Jane Fonda's previous award-winning film "On Golden Pond" was a low-concept film, in which the daughter, son-in-law, children and the elderly couple were vacationing by the pond. This brief description does nothing to reflect the deeply touching family emotions in the movie. "

For fledgling actresses like Demi Moore, their opportunities are concentrated in high-concept movies. Only such movies will give a chance to beauties with outstanding appearance but no fame.

"Here we are. Here are your documents." Niceta handed over the script of "Footloose". "I'll contact you tomorrow."

"I'll take you back, Demi." Ronald did not enter the apartment, but shook the car keys in his hand. His car was still in the parking garage of the apartment.

"What's wrong with you?" Demi couldn't help herself. Could it be that Ronald doesn't like her appearance and figure anymore?

"I don't mean any harm. Is Freddy at home?" Ronald remembered that he had Demi's husband Freddy's phone number, opened the door and entered the house, found the phone number, and wanted to call Freddy.

"You are all sanctimonious villains, Don Simpson, Freddy, and you." Demi followed in. Seeing Ronald about to make a call, she raised her hand and hit Ronald several times, then squatted down. , cried softly.

"What's wrong with you, Demi?" Ronald didn't expect that his act of calling would make Demi cry. He was a little stunned, so he put down the phone, helped Demi up, opened the door and helped Demi Moore into the room.

“Freddie didn’t want me to be an actor, so every time I auditioned, he always went with me and then missed rehearsals for the band’s new songs.

This made the relationship between him and the other band members very tense. When I went to see him rehearse, the band members yelled at me and called me Bitchi.

I want to be an actor, I can't stand this. I continued auditioning and finally got the supporting role on General Hospital. He insisted on coming to see me filming every day to prevent me from getting too close to the actor and embarrassing me. I was ready to file for divorce from Freddie. "

Ronald saw that Demi was starting to stabilize and gave her a glass of water.

"Give me something with alcohol." Demi refused to drink water, so Ronald poured her a glass of whiskey.

"For the first time in my life, I can afford an apartment and clothes with my own money... I like performing..."

It was not easy for Ronald to hear Demi tell her about her experiences in the past year. This girl has long wanted to enter the entertainment industry. It was not until the beginning of this year that she realized her dream and played a recurring role in a well-known soap opera.

"I may be exaggerating to say this, but Demi, you are a very talented actor, and General Hospital has recognized you. You don't need to use a man to get a role at all."

"Fuxk you! Ronnie." Demi drank some wine and spoke a little unscrupulously, "You said you don't want to rely on men, but you didn't arrange a superwoman heroine for your girlfriend, and I was squeezed out by her. , you sanctimonious villain."

"What did you say?" Ronald was confused by her scolding, "Helen played Superwoman, and you played Lucy Lane."

"I look like the actor who plays Superman's girlfriend, with the same black hair and green eyes." Demi hit Ronald's arm again, "But the audition they gave me was for Supergirl. Supergirls also have Earthlings. Shape Linda Lee, also with black hair.”

"Oh, this is not something I can decide." Ronald was a little helpless. You can't blame him. He just provided an idea of ​​auditioning in uniform.

"What about Lightning Dance? Is it you too? Can you help me get the lead role of Lightning Dance?"

Demi began to gently hit Ronald's arm again, and then stroked Ronald's arm back and forth.

"Demi, do you have any misunderstanding about the casting of the movie? I am not the director or producer of Flashdance. This movie was decided by Mr. Eisner himself."

Ronald briefly explained what happened in the afternoon.

"I didn't expect that I lost to a group of blue-collar workers." After hearing this, Demi remained motionless, and then tears began to flow on her face again.

"Listen to me, have a good sleep, tomorrow is a new day, Demi, an actor like you will not be buried." Ronald only had good words to persuade.

Demi cried silently, which made Ronald feel a little soft. He hugged her gently, and then took out a handkerchief to wipe away her tears.

"Wait a minute, why are you crying in only one eye?" Ronald asked in surprise.

"This is my talent. When shooting close-ups, one eye sheds tears. It is an advantage. The emotions are more abundant and you can take more shots." Demi Moore turned from crying to laughing and began to touch Ronald's hand again.

"You go and wash it off first, the makeup is a bit stained." Ronald pointed to the eyeliner on one of Demi's eyes that was damaged by tears, and was almost deceived by her acting skills.

Demi smiled softly and said, "Wait for me here." Then she walked into the bathroom, turned on the hot water and started washing her face.

"Oh, God. Oh, God, here we go again."

"What happened?" Ronald heard Demi screaming in the bathroom and rushed in.

"My face, my face is swollen again."

Demi covered her face to hide from Ronald.

"What's wrong?"

"I have had kidney problems since I was a child. When I am very tired or nervous, my whole body will become swollen."

"I'll take you to the hospital for a checkup."

"Oh, Ronnie, I'm scared. I'm scared that I'm not beautiful anymore. I'm scared that men won't be attracted to me anymore."

In the emergency room of the hospital, Ronald sat with Demi for a while. After being diagnosed by the doctor, she was prescribed medicine and infused.

"You love your girlfriend very much, right?" After the infusion, the swelling of Demi Moore finally subsided, and there were still some swelling marks on her face.

"What do you know?"

"I saw you were smiling when you talked about her."

Then both of them were silent.

"Please take me to my agent. My car is still there." Demi came back to her senses and said to Ronald.

Ronald drove her to the agent's office of ICM. Demi got out of the car and walked to a green Kawasaki motorcycle.

"Ronnie, thank you. I will not forget tonight."

Then Demi Moore shook her long hair, got on the Kawasaki motorcycle, and drove away without wearing a helmet.
