Chapter 1962 Signing with DreamWorks
Los Angeles, Hollywood, Walk of Fame.
Without makeup, the young and handsome Li Zitao walked into the gate of DreamWorks accompanied by Tong Jiayao.
"Excuse me, what can I do?" The new receptionist looked a little confused.
"I'm Bruce, and I have an appointment with Mr. Robert." Li Zitao said with a smile.
"Please wait a moment, I need to confirm." The front desk opened the phone book and looked for the number of the new BOSS.
"0857...that's the number of the president's office!"
After looking for the other party for a long time and still not finding it, Li Zitao reminded him kindly.
"Thank you. Today is my first day at work, so I'm a little nervous!" The girl looked at him gratefully.
"It's okay, I think you'll get used to it soon."
After confirming the appointment, the two of them successfully arrived on the second floor and walked along the office area to the president's office at the end.
The layout here is still the same, and it is very familiar to Li Zitao.
Clang!
Knocking on the glass window, Robert in the office raised his head.
When he saw Li Zitao, his expression was obviously startled, and then he politely stood up and motioned for the two of them to come in.
"Mr. Evan, I am Bruce, and this is my companion, Jenny Tong."
"Hello everyone, how's the journey going?"
"Yes, it's just like I imagined."
Li Zitao's current identity is not the boss of DreamWorks, he is just a young actor who was recommended and came to apply for the job.
"Shan, we need two cups of coffee here." Robert ordered the secretary outside the door, closed the door, returned to the table and sat down.
"Have you never been to DreamWorks?" Robert seemed to be simply curious.
"I actually worked at RKO before, and it was very different there."
"Oh? Tell me.
"
"The atmosphere, the atmosphere there was always heavy, there was a lot of complaining at work and the look on people's faces was lifeless."
"Do you think it's different here?" Robert asked with interest.
"Yes."
Bruce stood up generously, came to the glass window and looked outside and said: "I see hope and passion on the faces of people outside. This is exactly what I want."
"Mr. Robert, the coffee you want!" The secretary came over with the coffee.
Signing for her to put the coffee on the table, Robert looked at Li Zitao with admiration: "I like your honesty, Bruce."
"Can I ask about your relationship with Mr. Charlie?" In fact, this was what he wanted to ask from the beginning.
Not only was he Chinese-American, but his appearance was also very similar to the photos in Robert's memory.
He had never seen Li Zitao in person, but he had seen a photo of the two of them on the table when he went to Lauren's house for a party.
"A distant uncle of mine was Mr. Charlie's barber. My uncle accidentally mentioned me in front of Mr. Charlie."
"so?"
"So after learning that I knew some skills and wanted to develop in Hollywood, I decided to give me a chance, and I'm very grateful for it!"
Are Li Zitao's words watertight? Look at his candid and sincere eyes.
Robert even began to suspect that there was something wrong with his memory!
Think of the joke circulating within Hollywood that Chinese people all look the same.
Robert no longer clings to this? Throwing the question to the back of his mind.
With your distinguished status as Mr. Charlie Lee, how could you possibly go to Hollywood and become an actor?
It must be that the Chinese-Americans all look too similar, plus he was personally recommended by Mr. Charlie Lee.
So that you make yourself too nervous? It’s just an illusion!
Robert, who had figured this out, no longer wasted time, "Bruce? You should know that in Hollywood, people with your skin color will receive a lot of unfair treatment and targeting."
"I understand, but I will solve it in my own way!"
"May I know what it means?"
Li Zitao raised his fist with a slightly raised corner of his mouth: "With my fists and acting skills, are they enough?"
‘This is a young man full of pride, maybe a little arrogant! ’ Robert wanted to give him a few words of warning.
But he suddenly felt that maybe it would be more effective to let him get the first blow before reminding him.
"Well, I hope your fist is hard enough!"
Robert took out a contract from the documents on the table, pushed it in front of him and said, "This is the contract. You can take it back to your lawyer."
"I brought it." Li Zitao looked at Tong Jiayao beside him.
Tong Jiayao, who had been hinting that she was calm in her heart, still looked a little nervous when being stared at by two people at the same time.
But soon she put her mind completely into the contract, reviewing each clause to see if it would be unfavorable or unfair to 'Li Tao'.
Li Zitao waited silently while Robert continued to work.
Originally, this kind of signing of new people did not require his intervention.
But after all, it was the big boss’s personal assistant? Miss Evelin who made the call in person.
And deliberately mentioned that this is the person the boss ordered to take care of.
Robert, who had just taken office, didn't want to leave a bad impression on his boss as arrogant.
45 minutes later, the responsible and serious Tong Jiayao read the entire contract and nodded to him and said, "No problem!"
She carefully reviewed and considered all the terms.
Only when she was absolutely sure would she look at the next item, so her answer at this time was full of affirmation.
Li Zitao also readily picked up the pen and signed Bruce Lee's name with a swipe.
In order to make his signature different from his past habits, he spent a lot of time practicing in private.
"Well, congratulations, Bruce, you will officially become a member of DreamWorks from today on."
"Thanks."
Letting go of the other party's hand, Robert dialed the internal line and had someone take him to the casting office.
"Next, they will take pictures of you, understand your strengths, create a suitable image for you, and decide whether there is a role suitable for you in the script currently being prepared."
"Okay, thank you again for your help, Mr. Evan." Farewell to Robert, Li Zitao and Tong Jiayao followed the staff and left the building.
They are now going to the company's annex building, which is behind the main building facing the street. Behind it is one of the main filming locations of DreamWorks.
"We have three different shooting locations in Hollywood, and we decide which location to use based on the different needs of the film!"
The staff member who took them to the casting office was very friendly.
Maybe because they are also minorities!
Judging from the other person's brown skin, she should be from a certain country in South America.
It was just the first time for both parties to meet, so asking directly would be a bit overstepping, so Li Zitao just smiled politely and expressed his gratitude to the other party.
When it came time to 'live' as Bruce, his heart was not as peaceful as it seemed.
I just hope that DreamWorks will be like what I am ‘well-known’, and that there will be no broad-based discrimination or hostility.
Otherwise, Li Zitao doesn't know how long he can hide his identity?
Or should we let Bruce become a despicable whistleblower in everyone's mind who will go beyond the level and report to the superiors?
