Chapter 028 The New Roommate
"What a coincidence." Josh put his hands in his pockets and stared at Rui Fan intently. Although it was only a short time since we parted, the other party's spirit was much better than when we had just separated, with a rosy complexion and a faint smile on his face. Not as inaccessible as when we first met.
"Actually, it's not that coincidental." Rui Fan blinked slyly, "I came to see you specially, are you very touched?"
Josh shrugged: "I was so moved that I burst into tears, mind if I wipe my nose on your clothes? I know very well, after all, big stars don't have that much time to hang around."
Rui Fan immediately put on a disgusted expression: "Josh, you are really disgusting. How are you doing recently?"
Josh replied: "It's not bad, I've been looking for filming opportunities, how about you, is Christmas still happy?"
"As you can see." Rui Fan raised a smile, "I have figured out a lot of things, and I feel that I can live like a normal person."
Josh rolled his eyes towards the sky: "How did you look like a normal person when you were filming?"
"Aren't you the same." Rui Fan gave him a provocative look, "One day you will feel my troubles. Josh, as long as you have a chance to show yourself, your talent will surprise the whole world. "
"I'd rather surprise the world with my handsome appearance, and let everyone surrender under my suit pants." Josh smiled and said, "Rui Fan, are you here to comfort me?"
"I'm stating the facts."
"Actually, I'm not as depressed as you think." Josh said, "I'm still young, I still have many opportunities, and I won't give up easily."
"You have always been more determined than me when it comes to filming." The two chatted while walking. The winter clothes were very heavy, and both of them were wrapped so that only half of their faces were exposed.
The people who hang out by the lake are all the elderly residents nearby. Even if someone noticed these two good-looking young people, they would not associate their identities with Hollywood stars.
Josh is still far from being a Hollywood star, but Rui Fan is a new generation that has attracted much attention. After being nominated for an Oscar, he is considered to be the James Dean of the 90s. Hollywood filmmakers have high hopes for him , and he never disappoints.
Josh patted Rui Fan on the shoulder: "It's not easy for a person to determine the pursuit of a lifetime. Now that I have determined that acting is my favorite profession, of course I will go all out to complete it."
Rui Fan laughed when he heard the words: "I haven't determined what I really like, but I won't be depressed anymore. Next, I will try to determine what I really like, and then work hard for it, although it may be a step behind you, But it's never too late, is it?"
"That's right." The smile on Josh's face deepened, "You will definitely find it!"
"I believe too!"
The two chatted for a while, and Rui Fan was taken away by his assistant Finney. After "The Uninhibited Sky", he consciously turned down many film contracts, but the work of an actor often covers many other aspects. After Christmas, he After only a few days of rest, I had to start busy.
He gave Josh an apologetic look, but Josh just waved his hand, signaling him to leave quickly.
It was almost noon, and Josh trotted downstairs to the apartment. Just as he was thinking about whether to cook by himself or go out for a meal today, the landlord, Mr. Johnson, suddenly called.
"Josh, are you home?"
After getting an affirmative answer, Mr. Johnson explained the purpose of the call: "After Edgar moved out, I posted a new announcement. A young man has taken a fancy to the house here and wants to share it with you. What do you think? Sample?"
"Let him come."
"I thought you wanted to live alone Josh, he will be at your place in 20 minutes, and I will be there soon, remember to open the door for us."
Hanging up the phone, looking at the neat and clean living room, Josh silently praised himself for cleaning.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the landlord Mr. Johnson's fat face appeared at the door. After Johnson entered, a tall young man with a cold face followed him and nodded at Josh: "Hello."
"Hello." Josh also greeted calmly, staring at the young man with unavoidable inquiry.
He didn't even know how to describe his luck.
Could it be that returning to this era, will all the big stars of the future be caught in a handful?
He first met Jeremy Renner at the audition for "Law and Order", then met River Phoenix while filming "Unruly Sky", and now even his roommate has been replaced by the famous "Batman" in the future Christian Bale?
Josh guessed, probably because the current big stars are not famous enough.
In other words, God deliberately tied these people together with him, making him envious of the successful life these people are destined to have, but he has to fight for an unknown future?
He is not happy!
The current Christian Bale is still a tall, thin and slender man with a twitching strip, far from the excellent figure of a muscular tough guy in Josh's impression. According to Josh's memory, the current Bale is about 17 years old, full of youthful feeling, At first glance, it looks a little thin and gloomy, with a very classical appearance - the temperament of young actors in this era is rather gloomy, probably because the popular film styles are more subtle, far less publicized than those of later generations.
But this era has also produced a large number of outstanding child stars, such as Christian Bale, River Phoenix, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kirsten Dunst... They have strong personal characteristics and are young. They have great star potential, and decades later, although there are child stars who shine in major films, their development after adulthood is often unsatisfactory, far from the achievements people expect.
The fate of child stars is often closely related to the development of the film industry. "Home Alone" has made Macaulay Culkin, but even if Macaulay Culkin's stardom is ruined by scandal, there will be no child stars like him in the future.
Because there will be no second Home Alone.
In the Hollywood film market, where the investment amount can easily exceed [-] million yuan, no investor dares to bet the fate of a film on a child under ten years old.
In a few minutes, Christian Bell confirmed to Mr. Johnson how satisfied he was with the house. Mr. Johnson said cheerfully: "You and Josh will have a good time getting along. He is also an actor. You must be very happy." There are common topics.”
Christian Bale nodded slightly: "It should."
However, after Mr. Johnson left, Christian Bale simply closed the door and stayed in the room all afternoon, without any intention of talking to Josh.
Josh: "..."
He used to read the gossip and heard that Bell had a hot temper, but now it seems that he is really not easy to get along with?
Josh touched his nose, and sure enough, finding a family roommate like Edgar was almost impossible.
However, Bell is still a minor now, and similar to River Phoenix, Bell has been homeless since he was a child, and began to support his family at a young age. His family has no idea of self-improvement, and has always regarded Bell as a cash cow. Later, Bell Even if he became famous, he couldn't get rid of his mother's harassment. From this point of view, Bell's living environment was actually worse.
But the destinies of the two since then have been completely different.Because Phoenix's character is more soft and fragile, and he keeps all the difficulties in his heart, Bell chooses to become a problem child, resisting the difficulties with a violent and fierce appearance, and Bell is the one who persists in the end.
Josh's childhood was nothing like theirs.
Josh finds it strange that Christian Bale has already filmed Spielberg's "Empire of the Sun" at this time. He also has no shortage of filming in the past few years. Why would he rent out a house rashly?
However, Josh is not a person who cares about other people's privacy. At most, he is a little curious about the living conditions of future big stars.The heat of the gossip only lasted for a few minutes. Josh ran to the kitchen to make some noodles and solved his lunch problem. Audition for the movie.
In fact, after leaving school, Josh has participated in many auditions, big and small. Although not every audition has the luck of "Uninhibited Sky", they have accumulated a wealth of experience for Josh, Coupled with Josh's own talent in acting, he hardly needs to worry too much about the results of the audition - every audition of his has been approved by the interviewer, but he has been rejected time and time again for various reasons, but Josh didn't believe that his luck would always be so bad, so he kept working hard.
This "My Cousin Vinny" is a legal comedy. Josh probably remembers the plot of the movie, but he can't reproduce it at all, so he chooses to watch movies and TV with similar styles to supplement his professional knowledge.
The 90s happened to be an era when comedies were popular, "Home Alone", "Pretty Woman", "Ghostbusters"... These films will never be able to dominate the annual box office charts in later generations, but now , Comedy films are popular in the year-end inventory, and they can always take huge profits with a small amount of investment.
Legal Movies Josh mostly watched To Kill a Mockingbird, [-] Angry Men, and Law & Order, and he made a list of all the movies he wanted to list before he auditioned for the movie Study them all.For an actor who intends to shine in Hollywood, watching movies is definitely a kind of enjoyment. While watching, Josh writes and draws on paper casually, which is a movie critic's addiction.
He has been staying at home and not going out. The roommate who only met once on the day of the house inspection seems to be older than him. Josh didn't even hear him open the door.But the other party obviously didn't intend to communicate, and Josh didn't want to put a hot face on his cold butt, and still lived according to his own habits.
Although the food he cooks can't compare with Edgar's, it's still edible. If the roommate is a gentle and easy-going person, Josh naturally doesn't mind sharing food with him, but since the other party is so cold, Josh Nor is it interested in building so-called roommate friendships.
Time flew by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the audition day for "My Cousin Vinny" arrived. Even though he was as calm as Josh, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous before departure.
Comedy movies are still a field he has never tried before. Josh is confident in his acting skills, but he doesn't think he has a talent for comedy. In his opinion, comedy is by no means just doing two exaggerated body movements in front of the camera. Simple, it requires a perfect combination of facial expressions, body movements, lines and situations. If it is too extreme, it will appear deliberate, but if it is too plain, it will lose the laughing point, making the whole plot seem empty and boring.
Although "My Cousin Vinny" also involves a lot of legal knowledge, since it is a comedy, it requires actors to show their funny skills.
"call……"
After checking it one last time before going out, Josh finally opened the door and stepped out without hesitation.
The moment Josh opened the door, the opposite door also opened suddenly. Josh raised his eyes and saw Christian Bale standing at the door with a gloomy face. He only nodded when he saw Josh: "Hello."
"Hello."
Josh stepped back, and Bell set off first. The moment the figure in front of him disappeared, Josh finally couldn't help frowning.
He always felt that Bell looked in a bad mood.
This thought lasted only a few seconds in his mind. Josh glanced at the time on the wall, screamed inwardly, and ran out in a hurry the next second.
Almost late!

"Actually, it's not that coincidental." Rui Fan blinked slyly, "I came to see you specially, are you very touched?"
