Rebirth in America

??

The male and female protagonists were determined first, and the next important supporting actress was also played by Hepburn. Although he is just playing an invisible orangutan, his acting skills are quite demanding.

After finalizing the role of the female gorilla, Alex plans to confirm the black role in the play.

He suddenly felt that he didn't know any familiar black actors.

"Perhaps we can ask Chuck and the others to act?"

Alex remembered that they had said before that they wanted to make a movie with him, but they had never found the right opportunity. Now that I finally have a chance, I'll ask first. Maybe they are really interested.

According to Alex, it is not difficult to play the role of a black man well, as long as they play their true colors. The key is the male protagonist and those orangutans, which really requires some acting skills.

He first called Chuck's house, but no one answered, and then called Little Richard's house, but no one answered.

It's really strange. Where have all the people gone?

"Well, maybe they are at the record company!" Alex thought to himself, "I haven't been to the company for a while anyway, so I might as well go over and have a look!"

He could have asked Chuck and the others to come here, but it would be nice to visit the company occasionally.

After calling the bodyguard on duty, Alex took a car directly to cpt Records. This record company has developed into a large group company, and the related peripheral industry chain has covered many industries. There are more than a dozen independent labels with a lot of staff, and freelance singers and bands often come to try their luck.

After entering the record company building, Alex saw a large number of sloppily dressed men and women gathered together in the lobby, carrying temporary cards and standing together in an orderly manner under the command of the staff.

Alex casually found a patrolling security guard. The security guard knew him and knew he was the big boss. He immediately came over and asked respectfully: "Do you have any orders, sir?"

"What's going on?" Alex asked, pointing to a group of men and women.

The patrol officer replied: "It is a singer selection competition. Mr. Rudy wants to select some capable singers in this way, and their performance in the recording studio will be subject to the most stringent review. If they think they have potential, the company will They will record a demo. This demo will be released along with some album collections. If the response is good, they will be officially signed."

"Why are there so many people? It seems like musicians from all over the United States are coming here?"

"Oh, that's because our company reimburses their room and board! Since it's free, of course they are willing to go to New York for a visit. Maybe they will be lucky enough to be spotted by a record company!"

Alex suddenly realized that talent would be robbed wherever he went, and the record company wanted to grow. It's not enough to just rely on them to find it. We also have to let the talent come to us on their own.

But this approach is quite creative. He didn't expect that Rudy would be self-taught and create such a star talent show similar to that of later generations. If it were left to the TV station, the impact on society would be deeper and more extensive.

Although the kind of activities Rudy initiated did not have the standards of later American Idol programs. But it can also attract widespread attention in the music circle. Many people who thought they had strength rushed to New York one after another

Those who can come up and sing a few songs are not weaklings. Establishing a good relationship with them should be to attract talents and let them know the power and treatment of cpt records.

Many people may be tempted immediately to sign a cooperation agreement with a record company.

Knowing this, Alex waved the patrols away, ignoring them. Go directly to the elevator entrance of the special passage.

As an increasingly international record company, some necessary rules still have to be in place. For example, this elevator can lead to special floors, and only shareholders and big-name singers can use it.

When passing by this group of people, Alex unexpectedly saw someone.

"Brigitte?"

"Hey, I didn't expect to meet you." He saw Alex. A woman emerged from the crowd, it was Brigitte, the great beauty who had parted ways in Paris.

But the current Brigitte was completely different from what he had seen before. She was dressed like a hippie, just like those sloppy singers.

"You actually came to participate in our company's singer selection?" Alex couldn't laugh or cry. He was the boss here. It's not like Brigitte didn't know.

The female leader who was explaining the rules here to the crowd stopped her explanation and came over, "Hello, Mr. Carpenter."

"Hello. Sorry to bother you, Betty! Why did you come in person today..."

Betty was a veteran of the record company and a senior leader, just below the board of directors. Only the board of directors of cpt Records can decide whether she will stay or go, because she is a very important person and knows the company well.

Alex has met this woman several times, and has also used his ability to copy her doll.

Betty is not only beautiful, but also very skillful. She is the direct person in charge of the Human Resources Department. Logically speaking, she should not be involved in such matters personally.

"I have also been a street singer." Betty said with a smile: "I know a lot about their lives and ideas, so I want to explain it to them personally so that they can understand the company's past glory and future development. .”

"Vagabond singer?" Alex asked with some confusion.

"Oh, that's what we call ourselves. After all, we didn't sign with any company, but traveled around looking for performance opportunities!" Betty quickly explained.

Alex looked stunned. "Brigitte, come upstairs with me."

Brigitte nodded.

Alex said to Betty: "You continue to work. I'm leaving first."

"Okay." Betty nodded and led the crowd to another place. She wanted to take these people to see the honorary trophy the company had won.

Alex took Brigitte's hand and turned to leave. After getting on the elevator, he gradually disappeared from everyone's sight.

Betty returned to the team, and several of the singers immediately rushed over, "Who was that person just now? He looks very familiar!"

Before she could answer, another person asked: "Yes, he seems to be a celebrity?"

Alex has not appeared in public for nearly a few years. He is in the period of physical growth and has changed a lot. At least he is no longer the young boy he used to be. It was not unusual for these wandering singers not to be recognized.

"He is the major shareholder of our company..." Before Betty could finish her words, she was interrupted by others.

At this moment, someone exclaimed: "Oh, I recognize him, he is Alex!"

"What? Alex? Really Alex Carpenter?"

"Yes, it must be Alex Carpenter!"

"He looks very different from his brother Richard! Alex is much more handsome!"

"Who said that? Richard is also very good-looking. You are insulting my idol!"

"I'm just telling the truth, you're angry!"

Seeing that the scene was about to become chaotic, Betty quickly stopped her: "Stop talking again. If anyone makes trouble again, I will disqualify him!"

As soon as these words came out, these singers immediately fell into silence. The Betty people looked very kind, but in fact they were quite harsh. Before that, a few guys who didn't believe in evil actually contradicted her, and as a result, they were deprived of their qualifications, and even had the security guards pick them up and throw them out.

Alex didn't know or care about what happened next. He took Brigitte in the elevator and went all the way up to the top floor.

In the elevator, Alex asked clearly. It turned out that Brigitte did not want to wait in Paris for the call of DreamWorks, but ran directly to New York.

"Even Nick doesn't know where I've been!" Brigitte pouted and looked at Alex and said.

"Ah? Why didn't you tell him?"

"Nick is too rigid. He is always afraid that people will meet bad men!" Brigitte said, imitating Nick's movements and tone and said: "Brigitte, you have to be careful and don't let men take advantage of you. When the time comes, If you suffer a loss, don’t blame your uncle for not taking good care of you!”

Seeing Brigitte's appearance, Alex burst out laughing: "Aren't you afraid that I am a bad man? How dare you come up with me alone, be careful I eat you in one bite!"

"Oh! You're not a bad guy!" Brigitte raised her pink fist and hit Alex's chest, and said with a sweet smile: "My judgment of men is very accurate. If you are a bad man, then I have to accept your fate!"

Seeing such a charming Brigitte, Alex's heart skipped a beat, and he took advantage of the situation to grab her hand and pull her into his arms.

Brigitte snorted and read a book www. uukanshu.net leaned against Alex without any resistance, staring with a pair of big bright eyes, as if he was a little scared, but also seemed to be waiting for the next move.

At this time, I only heard a "ding" sound, the elevator reached the floor, and the door opened automatically.

"Huh?" Brigitte looked at the elevator strangely. Only then did she realize something was wrong: "Why didn't you see the elevator attendant?"

"This elevator uses the most advanced control system, so it doesn't need anyone to monitor it!" Alex replied.

Elevator switches in this era have not yet been automated, and someone needs to press the elevator buttons. Therefore, elevators usually have a waiter responsible for controlling the opening and closing of the elevator, as well as which floor it reaches.

If there is no such dedicated person, it will be very troublesome for people taking the elevator. They must always keep an eye on the floor indicator lights. Once they miss it, it will be very troublesome.

This elevator was specially developed by Alex and used an automatic control system. It was very convenient. Unfortunately, the cost was higher than hiring one person, so it was not promoted on a large scale.
