After signing the agency contract, the two returned to the work partition. Thomas remembered something and asked: "Have you joined the Screen Actors Guild?"

"There is no Screen Actors Guild or affiliated organization in Atlanta." Martin simply said: "I have never joined." Thomas turned on the computer and searched for the works that Martin had appeared in. Late Night and "Zombie Gigolo" were all non-union projects, and "Noonday on the Beautiful Mind"

"Sunshine" is a union project, but Martin did not initiate the application during the filming period, so it can no longer be used as a voucher.

He said: "Los Angeles is different from Atlanta. From the leading actors and actresses to the small supporting roles, most of them are union members. It is difficult for non-union members to get important roles." Martin asked: "Can't apply now?"

Thomas explained: "You need to have starred in a major role in a project that has signed an agreement with the Screen Actors Guild, whether it is a movie, a TV series or MTV, or you have to work in it for 30 consecutive days, and you can apply during the period of work." Martin immediately grabbed it.

To the point: "Get union membership first?"

"Yes, this is the prerequisite for your development." Thomas thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any arrangement with Ms. Mel?" Louise's resources must be used at critical moments, and Martin will not use them just because of this trivial matter: "

There is no arrangement with the brokerage company? It shouldn't be difficult for an excellent broker like you, right?" It is the responsibility of the broker to find job opportunities for clients. Thomas said: "I will check the company to see if there are any suitable opportunities.

." Reading the public resources allocated to Thomas, use some and use less. He also has his own considerations: "You should also look for it over there. If you have a suitable opportunity, let me know and I will talk about it." Martin emphasized: "Mei

Ms. Er’s resources are best used at critical moments.”

"Okay." Thomas asked: "Do you have any other questions?" Martin said: "I practice a Hollywood accent privately and need a professional teacher or tutoring class." Thomas checked on the computer: "This, in

At Paramount Studios, the teachers who take classes are from the USC Film School, and they are highly professional. The new class starts on weekends, and the price is a bit expensive. Each class is one hour, with a small class of 12 people, and the fee is US$400." Martin is very happy.

He said naturally: "Money is not a problem, you sign up for me." Thomas was slightly startled, this should be the work of the other party's assistant.

He is an agent of a large company, and the other party is just...

"Forget it, I just came from Atlanta and don't know the rules." Thomas shook his head secretly, thinking that it was just this time. He picked up the phone and called the training class and reported his name as William Morris. They said they would reserve a spot.

.

Martin wrote down his address and phone number and planned to sign up after the meeting. Thomas looked for resources on the intranet and asked Martin: "Besides acting, do you have any other specialties?" Martin did not need to be modest and said directly: "Horse riding and bartending.

, shooting, archery, dancing, fighting, swords, driving, Wia, makeup, fireworks..." Thomas found it hard to believe, after all, the person in front of him was too young: "Are you sure?" In addition to shooting and the newly learned dance,

The rest are all accumulated by Martin over the years in his previous life, and he has completed his evolution: "You may not know, but they all call me the most versatile actor in Atlanta." Thomas was doubtful, but thought that Louise Meyer introduced him,

There are also dance videos on the Internet that make men deeply feel inferior and force themselves to believe them.

He looked at the time and found that he had been delayed for nearly three hours on a young actor. He quickly said: "That's it for today. Keep your phone open and I will call you at any time." Martin said politely and walked out of the partition.

Go.

I saw a lot of people like him along the way. For ordinary actor clients, their business is naturally represented by ordinary agents.

He was in pretty good condition, and it had been at least almost a year since Thomas left the mailroom. After leaving William Morris, Martin drove to Paramount Studios. The studio's khaki arches and split wrought iron doors often appear in movies and TV shows.

In the works.

The training class opens on weekends, and the tuition is high for ordinary actors. To register, you need to pay a one-time fee for ten classes, which is US$4,000.

The studio not only offers language classes, but also various acting classes, some of which are hosted by celebrities, and the fees are staggeringly high.

The cost of fighting out hundreds of thousands of ordinary actors is not high. Martin came out of the studio and called Michel Gondry. The other party is doing post-production of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind". The film will be released next year.

It will be released in March, now is the busiest time.

Michel Gondry made an appointment with Martin to get back together after their busy schedule. On his way back, Martin received a call from Thomas, informing him that he would audition for a crew at Warner Studio at 9:30 tomorrow morning.

"A small role in the series, most of the time in the background, with a few lines." Thomas warned: "The casting director is a client of the company, and I said hello to him and his agent." Martin asked: "

What do I need to prepare? Do you have the type of role or script for the audition?" Thomas said: "Have a good rest at night, don't go out and make sure you have enough energy tomorrow. The role for the audition is an independent film director, the script has not been written yet, and there is no role.

Script." Martin said: "I understand." The benefits of agents and brokerage companies are revealed at this time, and actors are no longer alone.

After going back after dinner, Martin made a few phone calls and thought carefully about tomorrow's audition. In the early morning of the next day, the sky was slightly bright outside and Martin was sleeping soundly. Suddenly there was a banging on the door and someone shouting loudly.<

/p>

He was woken up, covered his head and wanted to continue sleeping, but the knock on the door kept ringing outside. Martin got up and subconsciously went to the bedside table to feel for the gun, but found nothing.

The person immediately woke up, because he came by plane and all the guns were left in Atlanta.

"Jessica! Jessica!" Martin heard clearly what was being shouted. He put on his T-shirt, picked up his phone, entered the living room, opened the door slightly, and used the voice-activated light in the corridor to discover the potholes from last time.

Face, photographing the door diagonally opposite.

Before Martin could speak, the man turned around and glared at Martin fiercely: "Never mind your business, get out!" While closing the door, Martin said, "I called the police, and the police will be here soon." With a bang,

He closed the door, hung up the safety lock, and stayed away from the door.

Following Bruce, Martin learned a lot of home self-defense knowledge. Read a book

"Fuck!" Hollow Face cursed and left quickly. Martin heard no sound outside, opened a crack slightly, and saw the landlord Antonio holding a shotgun, rolling from the stairwell into the corridor as if in slow motion.<

/p>

"Asshole, don't leave!" Antonio's fat face trembled and he shouted towards the stairs: "If you come here again to cause trouble, I will blow your head off." Martin opened the door and reminded before coming out: "It's me,

Martin." Antonio said: "Don't worry, this is a gun of friendship, I won't hit my own people." Many tenants were awakened by this chaos and came to check on the situation.

Martin came to Antonio and said: "You came too late, everyone has left."

"No way." He couldn't come out until the person left. Antonio gasped and said, "I heard the sound, got up from the bed, put on clothes and found the gun. It takes time." The door diagonally opposite opened at this time.

, a blond woman came out and patted her trembling chest: "It scared me to death." The gun in Antonio's hand tilted towards the woman and asked: "You don't know him?" The woman quickly moved away: "No, he

Find Jessica. You know, Jessica moved out half a month ago." In the corridor on the other side of the floor, a male tenant with glasses said: "Antonio, add a security door on the first floor. The security in Los Angeles is too bad.

."

"Do you know how much it will cost to add a door? Will you pay for it?" Antonio looked around at the other tenants: "Or should I share it among you?" When it came to money, no one said anything.

Antonio finally took a breath, and his big belly no longer heaved rapidly: "This kind of thing happens occasionally, and the tenant has left. This is a prosperous area in North Hollywood, and the LApd patrol frequency is high enough." Another person said: "Do you believe it?

Those idiots? A few years ago, just here, two people beat the shit out of those losers." Antonio waved his hand: "Okay, okay, go back and continue to rest." It was still early, and everyone gradually dispersed.<

/p>

Antonio held his gun of friendship and strode back to the third floor. Compared to the slow pace when he got up, his speed was more than twice as fast.

Martin was about to go back to the house when the blond woman in her long pajamas suddenly said: "Thank you for scaring him away."

"You're welcome." Martin replied casually: "He woke me up."

"I'm Emily." The blonde woman introduced herself and asked, "Are you new here?" Martin politely replied, "Martin Davis, I just moved here this morning." Emily looked at him carefully.

Glancing at it, he said again: "Thank you." Martin looked at the person briefly and saw that the other person was not tall, at most 1.6 meters, and nodded: "You're welcome." Emily waited for Martin to return to the room, returned to her residence, took out her mobile phone and dialed a number

Number: "Jesse, you little brat, stop making noise! ​​Let me ask you, who did you provoke? He came over today and scared me!" The other side replied: "I auditioned some time ago and I was with someone

There have been some disputes. I'm sorry. I'll resolve them in the next few days. I just need to give you some money and we can get it together soon." The two of them had been renting together here for a long time. Emily couldn't say more, so she just warned her to be careful.

, hung up the phone.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Martin went out on time, went to a nearby restaurant to have a lighter breakfast, drove to the vicinity of Burbank, found a quiet place to relax his thoughts, and when the time was about the same, rushed to Warner Studios and came to

Participate in the audition in the office area where the crew is located.

Thomas had already signed up for him, and Martin found the audition room according to the picture. There were more than ten people sitting on the two benches in front of the audition room.
