Chapter 92 The Prodigal Son Returns

 An individual actor cannot match the resources controlled by a huge company, especially an established company like William Morris.

Thomas entered the company's internal system according to the procedures and sent out multiple applications for assistance. In just two days, he received a lot of relevant information.

Especially Susan Levin. This is a rapidly rising female producer, and her age of thirty means she has unlimited possibilities in the future.

Susan Levin's resume, work partners, friends in life, major actors and actresses she has worked with in the past, and William Morris all have detailed statistics.

The day before Christmas, Martin and several tenants were helping Antonio decorate the venue for the Christmas Eve party on the roof of the apartment building when they received a call from Thomas.

"You come to the company and we'll talk in detail."

"You're not suitable there." After getting along with Thomas, Martin felt it was time to wave the whip and make the donkey Lamo more active: "Man, it's not me who said that, the hall is so messy and you don't have a separate office, how can you talk about things with peace of mind?

?" Thomas was critically hit and was silent for 20 seconds before he managed to put his broken heart back together. He casually taped it with tape and said, "You name a place and I'll go there." He thought of Martin's strong body and himself.

With a slight baldness but a handsome face, he quickly added: "The hotel can't do it." Martin stood on the edge of the roof, holding on to the guardrail, and said: "Tiago's Coffee House in North Hollywood, I'll treat you to a cup of coffee." Thomas agreed.

.

Martin put away his cell phone and found the ball-like landlord: "Antonio, I have work to discuss, so I can't help."

"Remember to come back to the party in the evening. The ticket is for drinks or food." Antonio is a happy single fat man, and he even held a small party for the tenants on Christmas Eve.

He asked Martin: "Have you found a job as an actor?" Martin said vaguely: "I'm working on it, I can't say whether it will work out." Antonio turned around in his pocket, found a business card from his business card holder, and handed it to Martin: "I have

There are many male actor tenants, and most of them have used it." Martin thought that the landlord was eager to help and had special connections, so he took it and looked down to see a business card of a private doctor.

Antonio said: "He is best at anorectal surgery, so he was nicknamed Hyena." Martin subconsciously lifted his coat and wanted to be a civilized person, but his business card of being a civilized person fell in Atlanta.

Antonio was completely out of good intentions: "He is really good." Martin put away the business card and waved his hand: "I will bring wine in the evening." He walked downstairs to the coffee shop and waited for twenty minutes. Thomas was carrying his laptop

, come in holding the document bag.

Martin ordered coffee and the two quickly got into work. Thomas took out Susan Levin's information and handed it to Martin: "The company has concluded that she is a Jew who graduated from the University of Southern California, an alumnus of the University of Southern California and a member of the Jewish Association.

I have an advantage." Martin was cautious about his words and deeds: "I'm not Jewish, and I didn't finish high school." He quickly looked through Susan Levin's information, and in the personal life column, it was clearly written that Susan Levin's current boyfriend

It's Robert Downey Jr., who was just released from prison last year.

Damn it! Martin went back to look at the photo and finally remembered, this is Robert Downey Jr.’s wife.

He asked: "How did Downey catch her?"

"I'm not particularly clear about the specifics." Thomas recalled carefully: "I remember there were rumors in the circle that she was moved by Downey's return as a prodigal son after experiencing the ups and downs of life." Martin told the truth: "Downey's experience is called

Have you tasted the ups and downs of life? Didn’t I come from a heap of shit?" Thomas said: "Originally, the second generation of rich and famous people do those bad things to experience the hardship of life. If their life is a little normal, they will become a prodigal son worth a thousand dollars.

Look back and don't be mentally unbalanced. When you become famous and popular, your experience in the shit pile will naturally become an inspirational legend and can be sold for money." This was so reasonable that Martin couldn't refute it and continued to look through the information.

Susan Levin has not been a powerful producer for a long time. She has only three regular film works, "Ghost Ship", "The Shadow Man" and "The Cradle".

There are three main male actors she has personally selected, Desmond Harington, Robert Downey Jr. and Tom Arnold.

Martin asked for the information of these three people again. Thomas took it out and gave it to him and said: "A young man, a middle-aged man, and an old man. According to this rule, she should choose a child or a dead person this time." Martin asked:

"Is there anything else?" Thomas yawned and rubbed his dark circles: "The company provides the information, and we analyze the details ourselves." He drank coffee to refresh himself: "I worked overtime for three days in a row, and my head is a mess. Don't ask me."

Campers can always find the most special places among seemingly ordinary people and information. Martin looked through it again and said: "So this is it, three prodigal sons came back." Thomas asked: "The other two are also sitting.

Go to jail? You put yourself in jail first?" Martin circled the three pieces of information with a pen, pushed it to Thomas, and said: "Harrington was a troublesome guy when he was a teenager. He was forced to drop out of school because of fights.

He was a bartender for a while, joined a street gang, and suddenly realized that he wanted to be an actor. Tom Arnold was in a similar situation. He worked as a security guard in an underground bar, selling drugs and alcohol..." Thomas grasped the key point: "The difference between Downey and them is that

, background and family are very good." Martin went back to look at Susan's resume: "She changed schools twice in middle school. In order to enter the University of Southern California, her father, an alumnus, donated a large sum of money." Thomas responded very quickly: "Su

Shan graduated from the University of Southern California with very honors and was recommended by many well-known professors." That's right, Martin said: "Personal experience creates preferences, Thomas, how much influence does preference have on a producer's professionalism?

Thomas was very cautious, thought carefully and recalled, and asked: "If the basic conditions are not much different, would you choose someone you like or someone you hate?" He reminded: "It's best to confirm. If you make a mistake,

It's very troublesome." Martin got Harrington's information: "This man grew up in Savannah, Georgia. I will try to contact him." He wanted to move forward, but he could only let Thomas bear the burden: "Other things on the crew's side.

, leave it all to you." Thomas added: "Zomi Sirla is a new director. He has only shot music videos and commercials before, and he has no say in the main roles." Martin said: "Man, let's get moving.

"Time waits for no one." Thomas nodded, picked up his briefcase, left the cafe, and headed to Warner Bros. Studios. At noon, he made an appointment with Mary Gale, who might be the casting director, for dinner.

Martin slowly drank a cup of coffee, continued to read Harrington's information, then took out his mobile phone and dialed Robert Patrick's personal number.

The two parties made an appointment, and Martin would visit her home after Christmas. At noon, Martin went to Sherman Oaks to have lunch with Louise, and they talked specifically about Susan Levin.

"We are all rich girls, and it's normal for us to be lawless during the rebellious period." Louise understands more or less: "Some just sink, and some return to the right path. I heard Susan mention that she was more violent during that time, but fortunately

I woke up when I was in college." Martin said his idea: "I plan to think of something in this regard." Louise said: "It's a very targeted design, you can try it." She turned to ask: "

I have to go home tonight, how did you spend Christmas Eve?" Martin said: "The landlord threw a simple party." Louise had no similar experience: "The landlord is nice?" Martin did not make a direct judgment: "Antonio gave

I have a business card from a private doctor who specializes in anorectal surgery." How could anyone from Hollywood not understand the meaning? Louise couldn't help laughing, and after laughing she said deliberately: "I think you need

." She was very curious: "Should I go to your apartment tomorrow? I have never lived in a small apartment like that." Of course Martin would not refuse: "I'm waiting for you at any time."... When it gets dark, North Hollywood

The lights on the roof of the apartment are turned on, the Christmas tree is colorful, Christmas-flavored music plays, and Mariah Carey once again starts copyright harvesting mode.

Many single tenants brought wine or desserts and came to the rooftop to join the party. Martin brought several bottles of wine.

Antonio put on red clothes and stood under the Christmas tree like a fattened version of Santa Claus. When he saw Martin, he asked: "Have you been to the doctor? He has good medical skills, right?" Martin lifted his clothes back and said, "You should be lucky.

This is not Georgia."

"Hi, classmate, it turns out you live here!" A familiar voice sounded, and Mene, whose skin was about to turn white, appeared in front of Martin. He put the donuts and strawberry pie he had brought on the long table and said to the landlord: "

Antonio, do you mind if I come over to join in the fun?" Antonio's standard is very simple: "If you don't live here, but you have brought something, you can participate." Mene, who is a local chef, took a glass of wine, drank a glass with Martin, and asked

: "Classmate, let me tell you good news. I was hired last night... No, I was hired by a casting director in her fifties last night. She promised to give me a role with dialogues in the tens of millions of dollars.

A small supporting role." Martin brought wine, poured it into their glasses, and said, "It's really good news, it's worth having another drink." Mene looked very generous: "She will come to me tomorrow night and ask me to find another one.

, two to one. Classmate, we get along well, so I told you this way. If the way you are looking for doesn’t work, I suggest you think about it." Martin was quite polite: "Thank you for your suggestion, but I

I have found other opportunities." He clinked glasses with Mene and said, "I wish us all success." Mene said, "When I become famous, I will find twenty young and beautiful girls to have a party." For the sake of future, always be with me.

When he was in his forties or even fifties, his interest was rapidly fading, and if he continued for another two years, he might be finished early.
