Blackstone Code Chapter 815: Parents’ meeting
For the agent, she has seen a lot of people, men, women, old people, children.
Young people, young people, middle-aged people, old people.
Her work requires her not only to have professional skills, but also to learn to observe these people and interpret some of the thoughts under their expressions.
Although the moment when a person changes from happy to unhappy is very short, the changes in the muscles are very obvious. It is like the corners of the mouth are facing up and the corners of the mouth are facing down. No matter how fast the change is, the two The opposition of form will not change.
The girl in front of her became less interested, because what she said just now, this situation is actually normal.
Everyone wants to live better than others and have more money than others. This is the most simple idea of most people.
But some people may not realize some of their thoughts, such as "everyone persuaded me to give up but I insist on it", or "I gave up why you insist on it".
The agent didn't want to explore Nelly's psychological world, she just knew how the girl's emotions were affected.
"Your friend is more complicated than you think." The agent is very good at conversation skills. She knows what Nelly wants, so she will give her what she wants.
"What's wrong with her?" Nelly's attention was quickly diverted.
The agent slowly took out a pack of ladies' cigarettes from his pocket and lit one.
This period was the period when women's cigarettes began to develop wildly. The feminist movement made smoking a very fashionable behavior for women. If a girl can't smoke, it indicates that she has old-fashioned ideas.
It sounds funny, but this is the social phenomenon that the general public is facing now.
The lady's cigarette uses flue-cured tobacco. The cut tobacco is dried and cut after being roasted and further processed. It is more mellow than raw cut tobacco, and it also adds more flavors, so that it will not produce peculiar smell in the mouth when smoking. Although this is unavoidable.
Raw shredded tobacco is sun-dried and cut into shreds. It is not roasted or processed, and the taste is heavier and more pungent. One bite can penetrate people's heavenly lids.
The "throat hit" from heavy nicotine and other chemicals is the favorite of many old smokers, who like the feeling of being punched.
Of course, the mainstream consumer market is still cigarettes, and the old smokers are the main consumer groups.
However, some media and investigative agencies say that the birth and popularity of women's cigarettes has exacerbated the tendency of teenagers to start smoking cigarettes, and some agencies believe that legislation for the sale of cigarettes should be made as soon as possible.
The appeal of these people is not very effective, especially the tobacco group, which sends money to Congress every day, and those people in Congress will not pass it.
Nellie was a little surprised when she saw her agent smoking, and the way she was smoking was also very handsome and attractive.
In this era, all new things are trends, and they are bound to attract people.
Fortunately, her attention was quickly diverted.
"Your friend is a senior caller. She charges 1,200 bucks a night and 5,000 bucks a week."
When the agent told the truth, Nellie was stunned for a few seconds before she realized, "You mean, she is a female support girl?"
"Senior girl!", the agent added, "that's why we need her."
"Works that can win awards in the Commonwealth are always inseparable from 'Dark Politics', 'Twisted Soul', 'Red Fruit's Body' and 'Moral Torture'!"
"If you want to win an award, you have to have one of them and make the best of it, or have them all."
"After the script is revised, we need a female character who can appear in front of the camera with red fruit, and also have some subtle relationships with the male protagonist and supporting male characters."
"The faces of the girls who shoot adult films are more or less known to most people. We want to use newcomers. Only the performances of the newcomers can impress the judges!"
"In this way, you just need to play yourself well enough!"
The revised script actually uses the depravity of several people to set off pure despair, and even if Nellie doesn't have any superb acting skills, she can still play the role.
Because the other characters are too dark, even if the protagonist is gray, when she is placed with other people, she is pure.
This is a good idea, and it can also be put on the coat of "art film", which will be of great benefit to the company's future development.
In the past, Fox Pictures didn't consider the issue of going public, so it didn't matter whether it won the award or not, but once it chose to go public, every time it won the grand prize represented a soaring stock price.
For the money, they decided to spend all their money on several big prizes.
Hearing this, Nellie was silent for a while, she felt better, but she hesitated a little, "I don't know if she will agree, it's very embarrassing, what you said."
Stripped in front of the camera, and in front of many people, she felt that her ex-roommate would not agree.
The agent smiled, "You ask her to come to the company tomorrow, someone will persuade her."
"And you, it's better to memorize the script now!"
The next day, Nelly's ex-roommate made an appointment with Fox and stayed in the office for a long time. When Nelly thought she wouldn't agree, she saw her manager take her out.
The expressions on the two's faces undoubtedly indicated that they had reached a cooperation intention. Nelly and her former roommate were separated by a distance, and after nodding to each other, the latter left.
Inexplicably, suddenly there seems to be a thick wall between the two, thicker and taller than the previous one!
"How did you convince her?" Nelly asked curiously when she walked into the agent's office.
The agent said with a half-smile, "I told her that as long as she is willing to join in, we will find a way to help her get the Augustine Best Supporting Actress nomination, and maybe even get her this award."
Her remarks left Nelly somewhat at a loss for what to say, and she was then arranged to receive training as a director, and she had to master that kind of pure eyes before the actual filming of the film.
In fact, the agent didn't tell the truth, and the female roommate disagreed at first.
Being a mistress to someone else or being a high-ranking person is a very private matter. No one will talk about this, because it is not a glorious thing for both parties to talk about these things, so it is unlikely to be exposed. .
But by stripping naked in front of the crew and performing action scenes, audiences all over the world will know what she looks like and what features she has.
She essentially refused, but then her agent told her that if she could get nominated for Best Supporting Actress or even win the award.
Then her income for one night of work will change from 1,200 yuan before the deduction to 12,000 yuan or more!
And she will also get more acting opportunities. After all, it is not easy for people to lower the price compared to some famous supporting actresses who have no flaws, but in the face of a famous supporting actress who is a little... let go, people are not only convenient The price is low, and there are enough scripts suitable for her.
In the end, the interests still prevailed over the dream, just like every time before, the former roommate signed this performance agreement with the company.
At the same time, she also realized that her seemingly innocent roommate Nelly might not be so innocent.
Lynch, who is far away in Bupen, must have no idea that so much is going on in Laltimore, he's flipping steaks on the grill.
A very nice looking little boy was around him, helping him add some cooking oil or spice to those steaks.
This little boy is Vera's son. He is seven years old and has attended the best elementary school in Bupen.
The tuition fee is actually very low, and there are even discounts - various scholarships from private schools can provide very necessary and financial help for outstanding students.
Children of mayors and councillors are often treated like this because of their noble blood and excellent learning. All of the above is nonsense, it's just a deal that everyone knows about.
The principal of the school is a very interesting person. I don't know where I heard some gossip, and he immediately waived the child's tuition and gave a scholarship. He is really a sensible person.
Vera is clearing the table and laying a tablecloth.
This is the yard behind the villa. Today is the weekend. Lynch is a little craving for barbecue. After much deliberation, he still came here.
The little boy was so happy after he was busy. He was sensible and obedient. Lynch liked him very much.
"Almost there, I think." Lynch stabbed the steak with a barbecue fork~IndoMTL.com~ There was no blood coming out of it.
For the Commonwealth, at least medium rare steaks are eaten by humans, and half-rare steaks are not eaten by dogs.
But maybe it won't be long before this habit will be changed by another group of people who, fortunately, don't like to eat shit.
The two put the steak on a plate and brought it to the table. Vera has prepared a lot of fruits and vegetables, as well as some pickled cucumbers.
She just sat there, watching Lynch and her son talk and laugh, and the winter sun suddenly became warmer at this moment.
"I'm hungry, I think we can start, boys!"
The two "men" soon sat down at the dining table, and they chatted about ordinary and homely things.
The little boy talked about some interesting things that happened at school, or occasionally about the stupid things Vera did at home. In short, the meal was very comfortable and there was no trouble at all.
After dinner, the little boy left with a plate, leaving the backyard to Vera and Lynch.
Lynch held Vera's hand, and the two sat on the swing chair without speaking.
After a while, Vera suddenly sighed, "Actually, I know I shouldn't ask you that, but I can't find anyone else to help me in a short time."
"What happened?" Lynch asked.
"The school asks the child's father to attend a parent-teacher conference..."
