After dinner, the three young people met to go to the bar for a drink. The loud music and the stage background of dancing demons made their bodies twist involuntarily along with the music like snakes.

"Three hot girls have been staring at us since we came in, wow, they have really hot bodies."

Mark gave Bradley a white look: "Come on, man, it's all because of Ebert's presence. We've been here so many times but we've never enjoyed this kind of treatment."

"Our bad boy has completely turned into a good baby." Bradley rolled his eyes, "He is completely indifferent to the beauty's favor, and only knows to stare at the liquid in the glass."

Ebert smiled when he heard this.

After acquiring this new identity, Ebert did not disclose his sexual orientation to anyone. In fact, he had no interest in young and beautiful girls, he liked men.In his previous life, Ebert was busy with his career and had no time to find a stable partner. As an actor, his restraint was far stronger than that of ordinary people.In Ebert's view, the existence of a lover is only a product of fate, and he never forces it.

After a burst of loud music, the bar changed to a soothing blues music.Ebert shook his wine glass, closed his eyes and tapped lightly to the rhythm of the music. When he opened his eyes again, a girl with heavy makeup and cool clothes was sitting opposite him, while Mark and Bu Ridley was long gone.

"Hi!" The girl greeted Ebert cheerfully, holding a glass of wine.

"Hey, where are my friends?"

"They went there for a drink with Lily and Maria. Lily and Maria are my friends, and I'm Melissa."

"Hello, Melissa, nice to meet you." Ebert is really not good at dealing with girls, especially when the girl's movements and expressions are full of sexual hints, Mark and Bradley Not here, he simply didn't know what to say to continue the conversation.Fortunately, after 5 minutes of silence between each other, Melissa retreated automatically, although her expression when she left was not good at all.

Mark and Bradley walked over enthusiastically, with unconcealable smiles on their faces: "Do you know what that girl said just now, she must have become angry from embarrassment, you know, she has been in this bar all the time Everything goes well, but she met our sweet boy Albert. She said Albert must be cold."

Ebert shrugged: "I'm just not used to it."

"You're such a weird guy." Mark shook his head, "But for your future, maybe you're right to do this. It's close to Hollywood, and stars sometimes like to come here to have fun, but if you're not careful If there is any evidence left, those girls will yell and wish that the media all over the United States will know that she has been slept by a celebrity, and they will also appear on the night talk show of the local TV station because of this, and become variety artists."

"I don't worry that much, I'm just not used to it."

"Well, the old antiques of the last century, anyway, I still have a good time tonight." Mark patted Ebert on the shoulder, "Go back to sleep, tomorrow is a brand new day, I will give you what you want The message was sent to you."

"Thank you Mark."

"You're welcome." Mark smiled slightly.

After renting the new house, Ebert has lived a more regular life than before.He, Bradley and Mark often have dinner together. Mark is a good cook. If everyone is too shy to go to a restaurant, he cooks and entertains everyone. Sometimes they also play a few street basketball games. The days are relaxed and comfortable.

Ebert would occasionally ask the landlord, Mr. Johnson, to go fishing together. Mr. Johnson sometimes liked to brag a little, but he really didn’t brag about fishing. He really knew where the biggest and best fish were.Ebert brought the fish back to Mark, who either grilled or boiled, and sometimes made a little soup for Ebert and Bradley to feast on.

The environment of the new house also made Ebert extremely satisfied.The two pots of green radishes on the balcony are already lush enough to fall from the second floor to the downstairs, and the other pots of flowers and plants that Ebert can't name are also blooming. nose.

The park near the apartment is also the best place for Ebert to choose for morning jogging. There are many elderly people in the park. They always greet Ebert warmly when they see him, and some of them are even warm to Ebert. Bert prepares some delicacies—in fact, all the elderly people who exercise are residents of this block, including owners of coffee shops and hamburgers, as well as tailors and hat shop owners. After getting acquainted with them, Ebert You can receive a lot of discounts every time, and you can give priority to trying new products every quarter.

At least most of the clothes in his room are one-of-a-kind products that are not on the market.

Ebert feels that he has become more and more used to life here, and it would be even better if he can find a suitable role.

Time has gradually entered September, the seasonal heat is slowly dissipating, and the cool wind makes Ebert habitually add a vest on top of his shirt, and his hair is also slightly longer than when he first arrived. Carefully One dial can be tied into a small knot. Ebert didn't care much about his hairstyle, so he didn't go to the barber shop to take care of it.

In the past few months, Ebert has not appeared in the entertainment headlines. Since his withdrawal, there has been less and less news about the "Eastern Eagles", and they have hardly received any media attention.

Ebert thinks this is very good. American audiences will gradually forget his notoriety. Perhaps professionals in the film industry will still care about the identity of Ebert Dawson's golden raspberry actor, but audiences are often fickle and have no idea. rational.

"You don't need to be particularly anxious, opportunities will always come." Mark brought out a plate of barbecue, "This is the freshest meat. Aunt Mary queued up for a long time in the supermarket to grab it, and she only gave me a little bit." .”

"Bradley is out of luck."

"Of course, he doesn't know what he's been up to during this time, and he always smells of alcohol when he comes back."

During this period of time, Mark also found a lot of news about the new movie for Ebert, but for some reason, the results of Ebert's auditions all failed, which made him very helpless.

Thankfully, the Earl watch he sold gave him a long respite.His rent has been paid, and his usual consumption is only utility bills and meals. Most of the meals are shared equally with Mark and the others. Therefore, Ebert has not really reached a desperate situation until now.

"Maybe I have to consider finding some jobs that are purely side effects, the long-term ones." Ebert ate the barbecue and couldn't speak clearly.It's not that he didn't want to play tricks in the past during this period, but what happened to the crew of "The Newcomer Driving" made him have to think more when filming.

"Recently, Christopher Nolan has a movie that seems to have an open audition for actors. The location is... I will check it out later. It is said that this movie has Al Pacino in it. You can try it."

"Mark, thank you anyway."

After getting along for a while, Ebert knew that Mark was born in a Hollywood family, and everyone in the family worked in various industries in Hollywood, such as director, editor, photographer, actor... This is exactly why Mark always has various new talents. The reason for the message.Compared with his family, Mark, who only wants to be a screenwriter, is undoubtedly an outlier.Even if his looks aren't great enough, the power of the family is enough to make him a bona fide star if he's up for it.

The name Christopher Nolan is well-known. His unique directing technique and mysterious scene layout make him one of the compulsory courses for the director course of the future film academy. The balance effect before commerciality is very eye-catching. Everyone admits that Christopher Nolan is a master director.

Ebert was pulling the broken hair on his forehead. If he remembered correctly, the movie was directed by Christopher Nolan and participated by Al Pacino. This movie should be "White Night".

Ebert had watched all of the director's films in his previous life, from the first "Follow" to the hit "Batman" series. The filming techniques and psychological portrayal of the characters in "White Night" are absolutely top-notch, but there is no suitable role for Ebert in the movie.

If it was a movie like "Follow" and "Memory Fragments", Ebert would definitely have the confidence to appear in it. At that time, Christopher Nolan had just directed it, and the movie didn't even have any investment, so he couldn't afford to choose too famous actors, but The success of "Follow" and "Memento" has proved Christopher Nolan's strength, and "Memento" even got 2 Oscar nominations.This brand new "White Night" can already appoint an Oscar-level actor like Al Pacino, and Ebert's chances of getting a role in it are slim.

Ebert thought about it a lot, and he thought about it until he fell asleep at night.

After a long time, he finally figured it out.

He found that what he was struggling with was actually meaningless.If he is a famous actor, he should have all kinds of considerations, but the fact is that he has nothing. If he can get the chance to act, it is a success. If he fails, he has nothing and will have nothing.

In an old Chinese saying, it is "the barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes".

He really didn't need to worry about it.
