I’m in Hollywood - Chapter 448

[Chapter 445 Can we be a guest?]

In the original time and space, Disney’s highest-quality TV media asset was the Entertainment and Sports Network (espn), and the TV station was also ranked second, and even became a drag on the Disney Group for a time.

As for the Disney Children’s Channel, because of the limited audience, there is no outstanding performance.

After Michael Eisner took power in 1984, he has been focusing on the development of the film industry. Before he could devote his energy to the TV industry, Disney was acquired by Firefly.

Eric came to the production center of the Disney Children’s Channel program with Katzenberg. To be honest, he didn’t have much interest in Disney Children’s Channel. If it wasn’t for Katzenberg to hear the name of the Mickey Mouse Club, Eric Gram wouldn’t come over to waste time at all.

A production manager named Owen Mott of Disney Children’s Channel took the two to visit the production center with some restraint. He felt a little guilty. Eric hadn’t gone to so many departments of Disney, but he came here, and the children’s channel started broadcasting. Nearly ten years have not done much, and Owen Mott is very worried that Eric will reform this department first.

Owen Mott took Eric and Katzenberg to a studio and introduced: “Mr. Williams, this is the recording site of the Mickey Mouse Club show, do you want to go in and see it

?”

Eric immediately raised his spirits: “Of course.”

Owen Mott, who has been observing his words, saw that Eric was interested in fv, and quickly took the two into the studio.

“Mickey Mouse Club starts in January, five days a week, with one theme per day. Music day, comedy day, surprise day, party day and guest day. Each episode is one hour long.”

Owen Mott simply did introduce.

When the three came to the studio, they saw six or seven boys and girls aged eleven or twelve rehearsing short plays on the stage.

Noticing that three people came in, the person in charge of the program group announced a pause and came over quickly.

“Hello, Mr. Williams, I’m the director of the Mickey Mouse Club. My name is Billy Clark.” The middle-aged man named Billy Clark first shook hands with Eric before Say hello to Katzenberg and Owen Mott.

At the same time, he gave Owen Mott a questioning wink.

“I’ll just come and take a look, you can just continue,” Eric explained voluntarily.

Billy Clark smiled and said, “We’re rehearsing for tomorrow’s show, Mr. Williams, would you like to take a look?”

“Okay,” Eric nodded, talking with Katzenberg and Owen. Mott went to the auditorium under the stage to do well together.

Because of the rehearsal, the auditorium was completely empty.

On the stage, the boy who was curiously looking over here was whispering.

“Hey. You see that’s Eric Williams,” said a brown-haired girl with neat bangs.

“He’s not going to make a movie. Are you here to choose a young actor?” A wavy blonde girl answered, and she subconsciously straightened her hair.

The other two boys approached the girl and agreed, “It’s very possible, it would be great if that’s the case. I heard that Stuart Runkel, who played “Home Alone”, is now paid more than 10 million US dollars.”

The wavy girl glanced at the talking boy, pretended to be a know-it-all, raised her chin and said, “It’s impossible, these are just those numbers for publicity, you must know that the reason why the filming of “Home Alone 3″ was stopped last year was because Because Stuart Runkel is asking too much.”

“Even if it’s five million, it’s more than us,” said another boy.

The wavy girl nodded subconsciously and looked at the girl with bangs beside her, thinking that she was prettier than herself. If Eric really came to choose a young actor, she would definitely have an advantage over herself.

“No, I must seize this opportunity,” the wavy girl reached out to straighten her hair again, glanced at the bangs girl beside her, and thought to herself, “No, I must seize this opportunity, This guy is so stupid, he must be better than himself.” The

seven teenagers were chatting together, and Billy Clark walked to the stage and clapped his hands: “OK, little guys, look who’s here, The director of “Home Alone”, cheer up and perform the short play just now. If you perform well, maybe Mr. Williams will choose you to be the little protagonists in the next movie.”

Eric heard that Leigh Clark said that, seeing the teenagers looking at him, he smiled and waved his hand, making a cheering expression.

“Wow, he’s so handsome, I must find such a boyfriend when I grow up,” said Qi Liuhai girl with a little nympho.

The wavy girl sneered and teased: “Last time I participated in the ‘Star Scout’ show, didn’t you say that boys are too sloppy, don’t you want a boyfriend?”

“That’s Eric Williams, he How can it be sloppy.” The girl with Qi Liuhai looked at the audience intently and retorted, and then a blush appeared on her face, and she said excitedly: “Hey, he is looking at me.”

“Why not looking at me?” The girl looked at Eric unconvincingly, and showed a well-behaved smile.

“He’s obviously looking at me.” Qi Liuhai girl said confidently.

“Hey, you two, stop talking, it’s time to perform,” the assistant director with the script in his hand pointed to the two girls.

The girl with Qi bangs stuck out her tongue cutely and walked towards the backstage, and the girl with wavy curls also walked up quickly.

Eric watched the seven teenagers walk into the backstage to make preparations, and then he looked back. He has always had mild facial blindness. This symptom is more obvious in Europeans and Americans. As for black people, except for Morgan, who is more recognizable. Except for a few people like Freeman, the others couldn’t tell who was who.

There were four boys and three girls among the seven teenagers just now. Eric looked at it once and found no familiar feeling. He thought that maybe these loli ladies were too young, or maybe his butterfly fan ran away. Man, he took a photo of the ratio of walking back and sitting next to him. Clark said: “Billy, can you give me a copy of these children’s information?”

“Of course.” Billy Clark nodded.

Called the assistant and asked a few words.

Soon a stack of documents arrived in Eric’s hands.

Taking advantage of the gap between preparations on the stage, Eric let go of the stack of documents, and familiar names such as Justin Timberlake, Ryan Gosling, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera came one after another. Come into view.

Eric was a little surprised at first that the list in his hand had not changed much, but after seeing the resumes of these little guys, he understood that these people basically participated in relevant training since the age of seven or eight. At that time , he has not yet crossed.

Of course nothing changed.

But when several teenagers reappeared on the stage, Eric also recognized the appearance of the other party. At this time, Britney has shawl and long hair with neat bangs. She is the shortest and the cutest, the girl with curly hair. It was Christina Aguilera, Commander High kept the student head, and Justin was a little handsome.

The names of the other teenagers are very unfamiliar. Compared with the previous life, after the club was disbanded, they returned to their normal lives.

According to Billy Clark’s explanation.

Eric learned that most of the short plays rehearsed by these teenagers were adapted from classic cartoons, movies or stage plays, mainly in a comedy style.

After the recording is completed, it will be played on the comedy day of “Mickey Mouse Club”.

What is being performed on the stage is an adaptation of Disney’s once classic cartoon “Prince of the Forest”. Eric has not seen “Prince of the Forest” and has no feeling for this naive stage play. The only thing he is interested in is , of course, just a few small actors on stage.

A curly-haired Christina is wearing a feathered headdress at this time, playing the role of the protagonist Mowgli’s little friend in the forest native village, while Britney wears a pair of bunny ears on her head. It is obvious that she is playing a rabbit .

Christina said her lines, trying to outperform Britney, who seemed silly to her, but she glanced at Eric offstage from time to time, she knew that if Eric really chose If you are a young actress, then her only opponent can only be Britney, because the other girl is black. The deep-rooted tradition of racial discrimination in the United States does not start from adulthood, and it is more obvious for children who have no scheming. Christie Na looked down on the black boys and girls in the group at all, and didn’t see them as any threat.

Perhaps because of this distraction, when Justin Timberlake, who played the leading actor Mowgli, said a line, Christina suddenly realized that she had forgotten her words and hesitated for a full five seconds before she spoke. When I remembered my own lines, I stuttered and followed them, and at the same time, I had an urge to cry. It’s over, I must be no better than that idiot Britney. I knew I wouldn’t fight for this role, how good it would be to play a rabbit , not only has fewer lines, but also just pretend to be cute.

However, Christina’s worry was obviously overdone, because Eric didn’t care too much about it at all, but he focused more on Britney, perhaps because of the memory of his past life, Eric couldn’t help but imagined Britney took off the large plush bunny costume, leaving only a pair of ears on her head, uh…

Christina will definitely not know what Eric is thinking, she is now thinking about how to pull a game back, Soon, the opportunity suddenly came. When Britney was bouncing past her, Christina quickly glanced around, making sure no one would notice, and then stretched out her toes as if nothing had happened. Britney just jumped up. One’s center of gravity was unstable, and he fell to the stage with a thud.

“Oh, Boob, why are you so careless,” Christina suppressed the joy in her heart when she saw Britney fell down smoothly, and quickly stepped forward to help Britney up and comforted.

With such a small accident, of course the performance could not go on, Billy Clark called for a pause, and then gave Eric an apologetic look a little embarrassedly.

“Let’s see if that girl is okay first,” Eric pointed to the stage, with playfulness in his eyes, and stood up first.

Billy Clark and Katzenberg could only follow him to the stage.

On the stage, Britney, who was sitting on a prop box supported by Christina, was still staring at the place where she just fell. Although there were a few stage props there, she felt that she had been very careful just now. tripped over.

“Bob, how’s it going, are you okay?” Billy Clark walked over to Britney and squatted down, asking with concern.

Britney glanced at Eric with a guilty conscience, took out her right hand from the rabbit costume, raised her elbow, and said, “I’m fine, I just fell here.”

Billy Clark looked at Britney’s hand There was only a faint light red on his elbow, he knew that there was no problem, he turned to Eric and said, “Mr. Williams, do you want to continue?”

Eric smiled and shook his head: “No, rest for a while, and, You guys are doing very well, keep working hard.”

Christina heard Eric’s words to leave, thinking that he must be dissatisfied with their performance just now, and she was feeling a little disappointed when she saw Eric Ke looked at her with a smile at the corner of his mouth. The girl didn’t know that Eric caught her little gesture because he just focused on Britney, and thought Eric was looking at her differently, which made Christina feel overwhelmed With a glimmer of hope, he summoned his courage and said, “Mr. Williams, can you sign me?”

Eric raised his eyebrows and said, “Of course, but I don’t have a pen.”

The staff next to him heard Eric said so, and handed a pen with a wink.

Eric took it, squatted down on the prop box and signed his name on the small book that Christina handed over. Several other teenagers also came to sign it. Britney also wanted to sign it very much, but she was a little shy. I was so ugly in front of Eric just now, I don’t know if he is willing to sign for himself.

“What about you?” After Eric signed the last boy’s name, he raised his fountain pen to Britney, who was sitting beside him.

“I… can I, Mr. Williams?” Britney asked nervously.

“Of course, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com” Eric nodded with a smile.

Britney showed a cute smile, and quickly ran to the backstage to get her notebook.

Eric quickly wrote a series of greetings on Britney’s book and signed his name.

Christina looked at Eric’s extra blessing, thought about it, and said, “Mr. Williams, I heard that you live in the Shell Villa by the sea in Malibu?”

Eric With great interest, he nodded with a smile: “Yes.”

“Then I… can we be guests? I heard that many people want to see the Shell Villa?”

After Christina said this, several other teenagers Sure enough, the look of anticipation showed, and Britney’s eyes became bright. The Liberty City of Malibu Point Manor has become a building that many people yearn for, and even many foreigners who come to Los Angeles will rent a speedboat to get there. The city of Liberty can be viewed from the sea off the sharp corner of Malibu, and even a helicopter can be rented if conditions permit, but no one dares to fly directly over the sharp corner manor.
