But almost every day, she called to ask her about the time. After confirming the audition date, she repeatedly told her some precautions on the phone.
Didn’t expect it to turn out like this, she was almost certain that the audition was almost a smash.
Although they have known each other for a long time, Charlize Theron is still very aware of the strong character of her agent. She ruined such a good opportunity. It is estimated that it will be difficult for her to get other opportunities from her in the future.
She was not in the mood to go back to the hotel directly. She lingered on the side of the road full of traffic for a long time, and finally decided to call her agent first. After looking around, she walked to a public telephone booth and touched her bag. A few coins were put in, and she quickly called her agent.
“Hey, Michelle, I’m Charlie…”
A capable female voice came from the microphone quickly: “Charlie, how did the audition turn out?”
Charlize Theron hesitated for a moment, but told the truth about the audition. What happened during the process was recounted to her agent in detail: “…Michelle, I didn’t expect Eric Williams to be there, I don’t even understand why…that bastard would be there. …”
Charlize Theron was about to continue speaking, but the female voice across the microphone immediately became stern: “Shut up, Charlie, I just assumed that I didn’t hear that sentence, and I definitely don’t want to hear it again in the future. You hear similar words, do you know who Eric Williams is? You dare to use that word to describe him.”
Charlize Theron was stunned.
Endure the slight grievance.
Said: “Sorry, I… Of course I know who he is, I just have some…”
“Okay, I know about this, Charlie,” the voice on the other side calmed down quickly, and seemed to think for a moment before saying, “Eric Williams suddenly laughed while you were performing. At least it’s much better than he didn’t respond to you before, I’ll make a few phone calls to test it out, until then, stay in the hotel obediently and don’t run around.”
Charlize Theron touched hesitantly Her own satchel, because tg’s audition was delayed by more than a week than expected, she has not much money, except for the airfare money that must be left, the remaining banknotes are only enough for her to continue to live in Los Angeles for three days, and She also doesn’t want her mother in South Africa to send her living expenses from thousands of miles away.
Return to New York as soon as possible, she not only has a place to live.
You can also continue to work as a model to make a living: “But, Michelle, I have…”
“I know, if necessary, I will lend you some money for emergency, and you will stay in Los Angeles and wait for my call,” The agent named Michelle interrupted her again: “Also, Charlie, if, I mean if Eric Williams is interested in you and wants to see you, I think you should I know how to do it.”
Charlize Theron clenched her hand on the microphone. Of course she knew what the agent meant. Thinking of the hateful guy in the audition room who suddenly laughed, she was a little unwilling, but she also knew that, This is definitely a chance for me to step up.
The agent on the other side of the phone faced Charlize Theron’s sudden silence and waited patiently for any urging.
After about a minute, Charlize Theron finally said, “Michelle, I know.”
“Very well, Charlie, you should understand that since you want to enter Hollywood, and you are not in Parents or relatives who are producers in big film companies always have to pay something. If you are lucky enough to climb a big backer like Eric Williams,
You won’t have to bow your head to anyone in Hollywood in the future, think of Nicole Kidman, that lucky girl was just a little-known actress in Australia a few years ago, and now she has become a Hollywood $10 million box office. First sister, how many girls have spent their entire youth in Hollywood, they may not be able to reach that level. All this is definitely not because her acting skills are good enough, nor because she is beautiful enough, these two things are in Hollywood. cheapest.
”
Charlize Theron listened to the agent’s lectures quietly, and couldn’t help thinking of seeing the scandal about Eric Williams and Nicole Kidman in some gossip magazines.
She is a very precocious girl, Saying that acting was her all-time dream during the audition was just a cliché that everyone would say. Ninety-nine percent of the handsome men and women who want to enter Hollywood do nothing but become A big star, getting paid millions of dollars for a movie, and living a prosperous life that ordinary people yearn for.
After chatting with the agent for a while, Charlize Theron returned to the motel in West Hollywood with mixed feelings …
Completed the audition in the afternoon, Eric and Elizabeth went back to her and Julia’s villa in Beverly Hills together, and in the evening Drew also took Tina Fey over for dinner.
Because
Eric came Because of this, Elizabeth sent away the servants in the villa, and everyone gathered around the square table in the dining room during dinner. Eric thought that the little episode in the afternoon was not remembered by anyone, but when all the meals were served They were all brought to the table, and when everyone was about to start, Elizabeth still asked.
“Eric, why did you suddenly laugh when interviewing that girl named Charlize Theron this afternoon?
As soon as
Elizabeth spoke, Drew followed suit and looked like a curious baby, looking at Eric with a strange expression: “Yeah, it’s weird, I thought you would keep silent all the time, but speaking of it, that girl The child is really beautiful.
”
Because of their different thoughts on Eric, the women present formed a very strange balance, and there was no scene of jealousy, but this did not mean that they would calmly face other women walking in. Eric’s life.
Even Julia, who held the little girl tightly in her arms as a ‘talisman’ as soon as Eric arrived at the villa, showed a curious expression after hearing the words of Elizabeth and Drew.
Eric shrugged with a frank face: “It’s nothing strange. I just think that girl’s performance is very interesting.”
However.
Obviously, Eric’s personal credit value has reached a negative level in the hearts of several women.
Hearing what he said, Elizabeth dragged her voice and said, “I think her performance is very good, although the final result will be decided after repeated discussions, but that girl is obviously not very suitable, I have decided to eliminate her. It
‘s gone.”
Eric thought that it was inappropriate, and was about to speak, when Drew, who was sitting on the other side, said, “Eric. If it’s just for fun, it’s not impossible, don’t bring it home. That’s enough, it’s enough.”
Seeing the helpless expressions of the other three girls, Eric raised the spoon in his hand and knocked on the door of Ya’s head: “You can talk!” The little girl
rubbed in disapproval. He nodded his head: “Hmph, I’m telling the truth.”
While chatting, Eric’s mobile phone in the living room rang, and Tina Fei, who was seated closest to the door, was about to get up: “I’ll go Take it.”
“I’ll do it,” Eric held down Tina Fey and walked out of the restaurant.
The call was from Kapoor, and Eric exchanged a few words with him.
Kapoor asked tentatively if he was interested in a girl when he was interviewing for “Buffy” in the afternoon.
Eric was a little surprised.
He was interested in why Kapoor knew about this, so he asked.
Kapoor said: “It’s like this, that girl’s agent, Michelle Simmons, is now the agent of the New York branch, and used to be an employee of uta. You may not remember her. She called in the afternoon to ask. I’ll test this with you, and she says that girl has good potential, Eric, maybe give her a little more consideration if you can.”
Uta is a brokerage company that was rebuilt after Eric bought Kapoor’s personal brokerage company. Later, because of the federal anti-monopoly law, Eric sold all the shares of Uta, and Kapoor also brought all the stars and brokers of Uta. People joined, and it was two years ago.
And before that, Eric didn’t often care about the operation of uta, and of course he didn’t remember a person like Michelle Simmons.
However, after all, it was his original subordinate, Eric did not hide it, and said the truth: “Kapoor, when I auditioned, I could actually see that the girl’s potential is good, but she is not suitable for the role of Buffy. , I think she lacks a kind of innocence that a middle school student should have, and seems too mature, so she is more suitable for a role older than her, you can let that … Michelle Simmons work hard in this regard.”
“Since “…” Kapoor on the other side of the phone obviously hesitated for a moment before saying, “Eric, since you also think that girl has good potential, she hasn’t left Los Angeles yet, are you interested in taking time to meet?”
Eric Ke raised his eyebrows in surprise, Kapoor has always been very helpless about his affairs with several women, but he didn’t expect to suddenly say this kind of ‘matchmaking’ this time: “Kapoor, you won’t drink too much, right? , you’ve always been against me… um, like that?”
“Of course not,” Kapoor on the other side hurriedly said, “I’m just asking on behalf of someone else, if you’re not interested, forget it, and I’ll tell her the truth. After
saying this, Kapoor said goodbye and was about to hang up the phone, but Eric didn’t want to let him go and smiled: “Don’t hang up, Kapoor, what’s going on, if you don’t explain clearly , should I ask myself?”
“Well, it’s nothing, but I owe Michelle a favor.”
“Is that so?” Eric was still a little puzzled.
Kapoor said: “That’s it, Eric.”
Eric thought about it, but felt wrong: “If you just owe the other party a favor, with the resources in your hand, you can completely provide that girl with a good opportunity. , even the protagonist of one or two movies is not impossible, right?”
It is one of the three major Hollywood brokerage companies side by side with caa and wma. After joining with all the resources of uta, Kapoor also became one of the senior partners with a part of the equity. With the resources in his hand, he wanted to repay the other party. A favor should be a breeze.
Kapoor realized that Eric would not let it go without asking clearly this time, so he had to say: “Eric, Michelle is a very professional woman.”
“Does it have anything to do with this?” Rick asked.
Kapoor on the opposite side hummed and continued: “Michelle’s main business is now in New York, but you also know that New York is the headquarters of many TV networks, and the business there is usually TV dramas or commercials. In fact, even if I don’t participate at all, Michelle can win some roles for that girl with her personal connections. But she should not be reconciled to maintaining the current state, she wants to be a movie star agent The direction of human development. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com ”
Eric wondered: “In this case, you can still easily help her, right?”
Kapoor’s tone was a little helpless: “Eric, don’t you understand? To put it more bluntly, Michelle hopes to become a gold medal agent like Pi Kingsley who holds an A-level superstar, but this is not something that can be done in just one or two movies. It requires a lot of luck. , after all, only those movies that sell well at the box office can spawn superstars, and in the whole of Hollywood, at least in recent years, this ‘opportunity’ in your hands is obviously the most.”
Eric thought for a while, smiled Get up: “It seems to be the case, so I have become the object of many people’s minds?”
Kapoor said on the opposite side: “Of course, in the whole of Hollywood now, as long as it is a project that is involved with you, even if it is some roundabout. Involvement will become the focus of several major brokerage companies. In fact, I also know that Miss Barrymore and the others are doing “Buffy”. If you pay attention, you will find that the actresses you auditioned for today are almost all from The three major brokerage companies, the second- and third-tier small brokerage companies can only grab a few audition spots.”
Eric was a little surprised, he really didn’t pay attention to this, but thinking about it carefully, it should be the same.
Not to mention the brokerage company’s side, take the future broadcast schedule of “Buffy” as an example. He heard Elizabeth mention that Fox has booked the complete first season of “Buffy”, and it will start in mid-September this year. Plays every Monday during prime time.
This is hard to imagine for many TV shows that are only in the script stage.
