Hollywood superstars: Start as a child star

Before returning to Los Angeles

Roxy was having dinner with Claire when Ferguson called.

Around 7:30pm London time.

“Why did you and your father talk about me?” Claire heard some half-talk, and Roxy even mentioned her name.

“It’s nothing. He suggested that I give you a stage name to make it more convenient.”

“Well, uh uh~” Claire was a little embarrassed, “My father originally thought that I would still be a girl, so he chose it before I was born. It’s a pity that I was born, but my name is more neutral so I didn’t change it.”

This little story was told to him by Claire’s grandmother, Mrs. Wu Xiangdi. As a Chinese soul, Claire doesn’t understand the twists and turns of Western names.

“How about you help me change it?” Claire asked tentatively, “For example, ask a master to help me calculate which name is most popular?” ”

Claire, do you still believe in this Eastern ‘feng shui’?” Roxy said in surprise, “I don’t think it matters. As long as the name is catchy, it doesn’t have to be too particular.” ”

Well, it’s up to you. I don’t care about that either.” Claire nodded. He thought of the British male star in his previous life who was called “Juan Fu”. His name was too long: Benedict Cumberbatch. Not many Chinese could pronounce his full name fluently. They always said “Juan Fu”. ‘Replaced.

“By the way, Claire.” Roxy suddenly remembered the content of the phone call just now, “I’ll find you another assistant.” “Do I

need it?” ”

Because of the copyright of “Harry Potter”, I will I’m quite busy. So I don’t care much about you. I need an agent’s assistant to take care of some chores.” ”

Well, how much salary does it usually cost to hire an assistant?” Claire became alert when she heard that it would cost money. His salary for “Billy Elliot” has not yet been fully paid.

Roxy rolled her eyes at him angrily.

“When you become famous, you must have your own makeup artist, costume designer, media PR and life assistant. At least you have to have a team to be a qualified Hollywood star.” “I’m not… I haven’t done anything yet

. You’re famous~” Claire said a little aggrievedly, “You still don’t know how much my salary is~” “The

average weekly salary of an agent’s assistant in Hollywood is about US$400.” Lockheed said, “No insurance, no holidays. .”

~~~Claire did the math, and the monthly salary was only between US$1,600 and US$2,000. It does not match the glamorous appearance of the entertainment industry. These young people came to be assistants just to find an opportunity to enter this kaleidoscope.

Claire waved her hand and said, “Okay, then hire an agent assistant to help you! I’m sure~ So, are you unable to return to Los Angeles for the time being?” “Yes, I was just trying to tell you about this.

” Roxy nodded, “I need to deal with book publishing and copyright matters. You can go back as planned first. I estimate that I will stay for another half a month.” “OK~” Claire also wanted to go back

.

…

The next day, Claire got on the United Airlines plane alone and flew back to Los Angeles.

As soon as I got off the plane, I saw Coach Wilson waiting at the pick-up area.

“Coach Wilson, thank you for coming to pick me up!” Claire stepped forward and gave the coach a hug.

“Let’s go and take you back to school.” Coach Wilson patted Claire, “You must have been neglecting swimming these past few months, right? When you come back this time, I have to give you a good practice! Next spring will be the National Swimming Championships. I’m Wilson Disciple, don’t stretch your crotch too much!”

“Hello! Claire~~” Standing next to Coach Wilson was a 10-year-old blond girl. She stared, biting her lip, and said hello cautiously.

“Is this? Coach your daughter?” Claire asked.

“Yes! When she heard that I was coming to pick you up at the airport, she clamored to come with me.” Wilson touched his daughter’s head and said with a smile: “Jenny, why are you so shy all of a sudden? You were so noisy at home just now. Are you making a fuss?”

Being exposed by her father in front of outsiders or Claire, Jenny stamped her feet angrily, “Dad, you are so annoying. Ignore you!” ”

Hahaha~”

“Isn’t that Jenny? Nice to meet you!” Claire knelt down and looked at Jenny. I didn’t expect that the coach, such a rough guy, would actually give birth to such a cute daughter.

“Um…thank you for the signed photo you gave me last time. Many of my classmates were very happy~” ”

Haha, I should thank you. I just realized that I still have so many little fans. I’m very happy too!” ”

Okay! Come on, let’s go~ Jenny. Brother Claire needs to go back early to rest and get rid of jet lag!” Coach Wilson urged.

…

back to the dormitory at San Fernando School. Claire actually felt a touch of intimacy. Since he left San Francisco and started filming, he has either lived in a hotel rented by the crew or rented a house at Roxy’s house, which can be regarded as having no fixed residence.

This small house that was his alone for the time being and for which he paid 20,000 US dollars for accommodation gave him a sense of belonging.

Well, when you make money, you must buy an apartment first! We can’t afford the villas in Beverly or Malibu for the time being, but there is still hope for the apartments!

I took a combat bath and finished washing up. Claire rushed to bed and had a good sleep.

…

After two days of rest, Claire finally returned to her normal high school life.

But he found that American high schools were anything but ordinary, especially this even more extraordinary private high school. There are no fixed classes, all classes are on a rotating basis. There are only a few dozen people in the whole grade.

American high school courses are divided into three categories:

the first is Regular Courses, which are general and basic courses that require enough credits to graduate; the

second is Honors Courses, which are more difficult than basic courses and are usually for students to study for college preparatory courses. Course transitions.

Finally, there are AP courses, which require pre-study of university courses. Taking AP exams can increase your GPA and exchange for credits in college.

…

and each student has already set his or her own goals.

If you want to go to law school, you should contact the local court and prosecutorial department early to intern and accumulate qualifications.

Those who want to take the technical route have already started various experiments and various national competitions.

…

To sum it up, there are not many people in this huge campus. Everyone is busy with their own things.

Claire also thought carefully about her future college.

You must go to college! Although the entertainment industry does not value academic qualifications, we do!

The first choice is, of course, a professional film arts school.

To this end, Claire also made a special call to ask Ellen and Judy, students at Eddie Wilder High School for the Arts.
