[US Entertainment] 1994

Chapter 189 The original plan

"Working with Steven Spielberg for the second time?" The agent sighed, "Josh, next time you can tell me earlier, after all, this is the responsibility of the agent, isn't it?"

Josh touched his nose, a little guilty: "Sorry, Arnold."

"I don't mean to blame you. For actors, Steven Spielberg's invitation is an irresistible temptation. If I were you, I would make the same decision."

"But in fact—" Josh explained, "the number one actor in this movie is Tom Hanks, and I didn't play a key role..."

"Stingy Spielberg..." Arnold cursed in a low voice, "If it were me, I would definitely let you be the leading actor, the only leading actor, are you really inferior to Tom Hanks?"

Josh said helplessly: "The reality is that most people think so. Tom Hanks has an Oscar winner and a box office champion, but what about me? Apart from being young, I have no advantages."

"It's not fair to compare who you are now with Tom Hanks now, Josh. Hanks didn't have your grades at your age."

Josh smiled slightly: "I don't think being a supporting role is a bad thing, no matter what role I will go all out."

"You always have."

After hanging up the phone, Josh took a shower, his hair was blown half dry and he lay on his back on the bed, staring out the window in a daze.

Most of the filming of "Independence Day" has been carried out. The filming process is orderly and there are no unexpected incidents, but to some extent, ordinary filming means boring. For Josh, President Thomas is a lack of challenge. For a sexual role, he doesn't need as much effort to shoot "Schindler's List" or "Speed".

This is the inevitable result of shooting commercial films.

Taking advantage of his boredom, Josh felt that it was necessary to think about his future.

"Sex Book Tycoon" is a movie that Josh hopes to have a breakthrough in the awards. He thinks he has played well, but before the movie is released, no one knows what the final result will be.For actors of his age, the current Hollywood is undoubtedly not friendly enough, and there are very few films that allow young actors to give full play to their strengths. Even though Josh is already recognized as an acting school, among the films that earned him nominations or awards, Only Charlie in "Scent of a Woman" is really suitable for him.

Andy in "The Shawshank Redemption" is much older than his actual age. In "Schindler's List", he also has to cover his youthful face with mature makeup and body language. After the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, there are still very few roles for him to choose, especially the films that were filmed around the same time as "Sex Book Tycoon", "Fargo", "Murder", "Mississippi Murder"... Josh is very excited. It's hard to pick a movie that really suits you among them.

Most importantly, Josh is not willing to give up his interest for the award.

James Cameron's "Titanic" has already started filming. Like his previous life, Cameron stubbornly chose Leonardo DiCaprio as the leading actor. The large investment in this movie also made Hollywood Speculation abounded, but no matter what, no one could have predicted that this big ship would revolutionize Hollywood, and even affect the global film market.

Josh is still hoping for success in both business and awards.Last year was the most satisfying year since he entered Hollywood. "Speed" has achieved outstanding box office results. Corresponding to the box office is the vitality shown in "Speed" and the youthful feeling brought by the role of Jack. It is Josh's favorite commercial movie.

Although "The Shawshank Redemption" lost to "Forrest Gump" in the awards, the fiery scene of this film in the DVD market has made countless filmmakers realize its excellence, and Josh's popularity has once again set off a peak.

Even "The Usual Suspects", which was spurned at the beginning, has gradually opened up sales in the DVD market. The producer deliberately erased the traces of Bryan Singer. The words in white, but Bryan Singer was thrown to the bottom of the video disc in an unnoticed corner. I am afraid that the existence of this name can only be found with a magnifying glass.

Getting up from the bed, Josh was just about to open a bag of potato chips when his phone rang.

Josh reflexively threw the potato chips into the air, and the bag of potato chips fell to the floor with a "click". Then Josh picked up the phone, only to find that the call was not from the manager at all, but from his own father .

"Hey, little Josh, how are you doing recently?" Tom's voice was as cheerful as ever, and Josh couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

"Excellent!"

Tom's tone became more cheerful: "Wow, Dad is very happy to hear such words. Are you tired during this time? If you want to rest, Lisa has already planned to leave the publishing house. She can go to Los Angeles to accompany you, to accompany you. Colin, with Serena..."

"Really?" Josh's eyes widened in surprise.

"Your Tom has always been honest." Tom smiled, "Take a good rest after this movie is finished, I just saw you on the news, dear little Josh, you've lost weight."

"Because making a movie is hard work." Josh rubbed his chin and asked, "Dad, why did you call me all of a sudden?"

"I miss you." Tom laughed. "The truth is, just after seeing you, your dear mother suddenly shed tears... Oh, take it easy, my ears can't stand such torture..."

Tom's muttering sounded in Josh's ears immediately, and apart from his voice, Josh heard Lisa's accusations as expected.After the rustling sound on the phone, Lisa's gentle voice sounded in Josh's ear: "Good evening, Josh."

"Good evening, Mom, I heard you missed me?"

"You are not here, only this old man has been nagging in my ears." Lisa smiled softly, "I am not crying, I am just happy that I will have more time to spend with the children soon. Josh, you have encountered embarrassing things Yet?"

Josh stared: "Mom!?"

"When you encounter embarrassing things, your tone of voice will change slightly, but you don't know it yourself. Would you like to tell me?"

Josh told Tom and Lisa what he thought.

"For the sake of career development, of course you can act in the works of great directors, play successful roles, and win praise and honors, but as a father, I still hope that you can be happy. Josh, do what you like, when When you are faced with a choice, you have to remember that happiness is the most important thing.” Tom’s voice was steady and powerful, “A long time ago, when you decided to become an actor, Lisa and I saw light in your eyes. No matter What you want to do, never lose the light."

Tom recalled the phone call Josh made to him after he successfully auditioned for "The Uninhibited Sky". As the most stupid kid in the family, Josh was never so excited about being admitted to college.

The reason why the Walter family is full of worries about Josh's future as an actor is because Hollywood is a big dye vat.

Countless gossips, scandals, breaking the bottom line for profit, chaotic relationships... It is undoubtedly a place that will destroy ideals.Josh's success certainly makes Walters excited, but they are more worried that Josh will completely integrate into the Hollywood environment and become a person with no bottom line.

Fortunately, this kind of thing didn't happen to Josh.

Fortunately, even though he has starred in nearly 10 movies, Josh still maintains his love for movies. He did not feel burnt out, nor did he think about giving up, nor did he abandon the movie itself and choose dollars that are just subsidiary products.

After hanging up the phone, hearing Josh's relaxed tone before, Tom was still a little irritable despite being relaxed. After a while, he still put on his reading glasses, pulled out Colin's number, and dialed it.

Colin, who had finally finished the big order and was doing something indescribable: "..."

"Dad, you haven't slept yet?"

"What are you doing?" After Tom quickly finished talking about Josh, he reminded Colin viciously: "Don't forget to remind Carlos Ross that he is Josh's partner, and he should be there when Josh is in trouble." Josh's side."

Colin: "..."

After listening for a long time, he couldn't hear what kind of predicament Josh had encountered.

Hollywood actors have never been less miserable than Josh's plight.

Most importantly, dear papa has Carlos' phone number too, why bother someone in the middle of the night!

On this day, Colin, the eldest son of the Walter family, suddenly had the urge to abandon his eldest son status. Although this so-called eldest son status is not worth a penny, it means heavy pressure and burden.

Annoying Gavin.

Upsetting Josh.

Upsetting Serena.

Gavin was only born more than a year later than him, why is that guy rushing around in the tropical rain forest with a camera every day, but he has to act as a nanny, emotional consultant, career consultant and punching bag!

Gavin Walter, who was far away in Brazil, suddenly sneezed heavily.

He touched his nose, suspecting that he had a cold.

"If you have a cold, you should go home!"

In short, after the phone call with Tom Lisa, Josh quickly regained his vitality. Although he didn't know what his career would look like in the future, he decided to follow his heart to shoot his favorite movies and do what he liked.

The existence and tasks of the system really made him full of pressure, but Josh looked back on his career as an actor, and he found that the movies that earned him honors and praises were all his choices that followed his heart.

He hopes that he can always happily make movies and shoot what he likes. This is his initial plan to enter Hollywood.

Josh smiled slightly, he will continue to fight!

The author has something to say: Josh is me, and I am Josh.

Today I found that there are over ten thousand collections, thank you, thank you.

Thanks to Qinghuan Fivy for mine, Momoza.
