Chapter 935 Allen Pompeo's Perspective

In the afternoon, in Los Angeles, in a dilapidated street-facing apartment near Chinatown, Ellen Pompeo poked his head out of the window on the fourth floor and watched Amy Acker trot into the agent's car and drive onto the main road.

Since the MV of this stupid little girl starring Angelina was released with the music video of the 21 album, Allen Pompeo discovered that she had changed her stage name to the same name as the song: 'Angelina', making it look like that song It is the same that APLUS wrote specially for her.

This very smart move should be the idea of ​​the top agent Hayden. The one who came to pick her up today is only Hayden's subordinate, and they are all co-agents arranged by William Morris for her.

Angelina Acker's fame rose in an instant, print advertisements continued to be invited, and she also began to have audition opportunities in Hollywood.

And she actually started to pick and choose! I have been staying with me for a week, and more than once I heard her talk to her agent on the phone saying that she doesn't like this brand, that she doesn't accept its commercials, that the character has no lines, and the audition is ignored.

"It's so naive. Opportunities can't always be there. You'll regret it when you get to my age."

Ellen Pompeo murmured jealously to herself. She went to the shelf full of video tapes, picked out the 21 album music video that was marked dirty by the RIAA, and stuffed it into the video recorder.

I was not so lucky. In Ai Se Eu Te Pego, she and Angelina Acker appeared on the screen at the same time, but they were completely robbed of the limelight by the more beautiful Charis next to her. The same is true in I Gotta Feeling.

But Angelina Acker also has Angelina MV heroine, and Charis is a large-scale MV Earned It heroine that sparked heated discussions. Earned It currently ranks second on the B list and is likely to beat Celine Dion's Because You Loved next week. me got the crown.

Fortunately, these two girls are typical of people who don't know how to seize opportunities. Angelina Ake likes to play casually, and Charis actually ran back to South Africa to play and disappear under such high attention! Still too young! Do you think that the generous rewards of people like APLUS can be so easily encountered a second time?

She kept fast-forwarding, focusing on the clips she appeared in, and couldn't help but recall the night with the two of them and APLUS in the terrible guest room next to the garage of the mansion in Chicago, no, there was another one, Fergie was also...

Hugging the pillow and curling up on the sofa, I am different,

It is more low-key, and the opportunity to win from APLUS is actually better. David Kemp is the main screenwriter of Jurassic Park, which has the highest box office in film history. His directorial debut "Mutant" is highly anticipated by the industry. Kyle McLaren, who became famous in the first drama of the town, and Elizabeth Sue, who was nominated for the Oscar for Best Actress just because she left Las Vegas, the female lead in such a strong lineup is me. This is no different than any MV Is the heroine much stronger?

After getting the first film salary, she rented a house here. The public security is good, and the life and transportation are very convenient. Turning into the nearby Highway 101, you can go directly to Universal Studios. After filming, she also enrolls in classes to exercise her acting skills and participate in other activities. audition.

It’s okay to wait for the release to be difficult, I will overtake you both in a corner when the movie is released, because I have enough stamina and ambition...

The only problem now is: the wallet is quickly emptied by frequent opportunities in Hollywood and the high cost of living. The salary is not worth it at all, and the agency and mutant crew are strictly prohibited from being a swimsuit girl in a rich party. , so she had to return to her old job as a part-time waitress in a certain izakaya in the not-too-distant "Little Tokyo" neighborhood, which made her feel a little frustrated from time to time.

The work was not hard, but she still started to yawn. The crew of mutants, which had been closed recently, was summoned again. Director David Cape wanted to reshoot some scenes. Since mutants is a thriller with a blackout background, many scenes need On location at night, she has not had enough sleep these days.

'Cause girl you're perfect, You're always worth it...'

In the sexy voice of APLUS, she fell asleep.

She slept until 7:00 p.m. when she was woken up by the alarm clock. She quickly jumped up to wash and dress up, then grabbed her belongings and a box of old Hitchcock videotapes and went out the door.

"how much is the total?"

Walking into the video store on the corner of the street to return videotapes, I happened to hear a conversation between a big boy with a schoolbag and the boss.

"This one doesn't work, let your parents buy it."

The Chinese boss scanned the 21 album CD on the counter with a code scanner, and pushed the music video aside.

The boy became anxious immediately, and began to argue with the boss in Cantonese, which she could not understand.

She noticed that the boss was secretly looking at her, and immediately looked away with interest, pretending to be admiring the APLUS poster on the wall, this man is too popular now, if I didn't work hard to get ahead in Hollywood, at least I could boast to others that I slept with him ?

'Ding! '

The cash register rang, and the little boy was content that the CDs and music videos were gone from the counter. The boss smiled and said a few words to him again, the little boy immediately peeked at himself shyly and took out the paper and pen from his schoolbag, "Can you sign for me... name, name?"

"certainly."

This kind of thing is rare, if it wasn't because the owner of this store knew that he had appeared in the 21 album MV...

She immediately showed the professionalism of a star, smiled and took the pen and paper, "You are so cute, can you tell me your name?" After signing, wrote to XX, and attached a short message.

"Thank you." The boy ran out of the store happily.

"I won't rent it for the time being." He took out his membership card and returned the video tape, then went to buy a cup of coffee, and drove into the 101 highway in his dilapidated car.

The outdoor studio is not in Universal Studios, but in a park further north. Her filming will not start until nine to ten in the evening, but she always tries to arrive early and leave late to accumulate contacts.

It was already dark when she arrived. She parked the car behind the row of RVs for the production crew. Most of the staff were setting up lighting and other equipment. Except for the two protagonists who had exclusive makeup cars, the other actors gathered in the other two cars Waiting in line to put on makeup, talking and laughing and chatting.

"I heard you got a supporting role on an episode of Law and Order?"

David Cape is very concerned about his debut work. The internal atmosphere of the mutant crew is very good, and there are almost no messy interpersonal relationships. After she walked into the crowd, a well-informed person asked.

"Small supporting role, not many lines." She replied with a shrug.

"Wow...it's great, the TV series is broadcasting very quickly, and your drama will definitely be broadcast before the mutation starts."

"By the way, is the film's schedule set yet?"

"I heard it's this year's summer vacation."

"real!?"

"It shouldn't be wrong, this is a project of Amblin Entertainment, and it will be released worldwide..."

While everyone was chattering, the assistant director appeared, "Elizabeth? Elizabeth?" He called softly outside Elizabeth Su's makeup car.

Elizabeth Sue, who was popular in the 1980s, was already in a state of exhaustion before she was nominated for an Oscar. Of course, everything is different now. When the crew re-shoots the scene, everyone's attitude towards her has undergone drastic changes.

Maybe it's because she has seen too much in Hollywood, but she is still the same as before.

As the male and female protagonists and some supporting actors went to the set, the caravan became much deserted, just in time to familiarize themselves with the script.

After about two or three scenes, I was called into the makeup van. The makeup artist had just finished it. Some people complained outside the door, and then the assistant director came in, "Alan Pompeo, the rest of today's shows have been cancelled, go home Well, sorry."

"Okay, thank you." As is often the case, director David Cape has high requirements for quality and often 'delays'.

"This is a new shooting plan." The assistant director handed her a piece of paper.

"But there's no..." She glanced around, but couldn't find her name.

"Really? I didn't notice, that means you don't need to reshoot your scene, and the director just changed his mind." The assistant director said.

She frowned. She had a good extra income for taking part in the re-shooting, which meant that the money could not be earned, and...

She remembered the past when Ashley Judd snatched the supporting role in the game of cat and mouse, and she immediately panicked. She hurriedly studied the shooting plan in hand and found that she was not the only one who canceled the role. gone.

That would be better...

She could only pack up and go home. When she was about to start the car, she thought it would be better to talk to the director and find out what was going on. As long as he was not on the shooting scene, David Cape was a very gracious and patient writer.

She knew that after the shooting, David Cape used to hide somewhere in the woods and kept talking on the phone, waiting for the staff to pack up all the equipment before going back to check again. This was discovered by accident the day before yesterday.

"What kind of summer holiday is August 30th!"

But this time seems to be a little different, I heard David Cape's irritable voice from a distance, "I know, I know that the project has overrun by 3 million, and the crew is running out of money, but it has nothing to do with the schedule..."

"I've changed it according to Mr. Spielberg's opinion."

"No, no, no, I don't want to be his good student. It's not negotiable. I'm a top screenwriter, and I have my own artistic ambitions..."

"I warn you Catherine, don't try to exercise the final editing rights like APLUS did to Ridley Scott, or our friendship will end here!"

"Haha, Linton's kind of layman who only sticks to the budget knows nothing. He didn't tell you that you and APLUS are working together on the Blade Warrior project?"

"No, it's not Harvey, and it can't be that second-rate editor, I've seen..."

David Cape suddenly lowered his voice.

Ellen Pompeo was shocked by what she heard, whether it was related to the box office prospects of her big screen debut or the secrets of APLUS, she boldly approached and hid behind a tree.

"Simon & Schuster has been publishing for me. They often secretly ask me to help provide professional appraisal opinions. We have cooperated for many years. I have seen everything Kunes gave them..."

"The plot skeleton of the released version of Cat and Mouse Game is exactly the same as the outline of the APLUS script. Kunes and the others just did some work to supplement the details. The shabby versions of Johnny Carson in the 1980s and Ridley Scott's The addition of snakes has not been reflected in the released version, it can only be done by APLUS, and no one else."

David Cape praised from the bottom of his heart: "He has made rapid progress, Catherine, he is more mature than the first script in my life, what a fucking genius, but it's a pity that he is a popular singer, otherwise he would concentrate on screenwriting... Forget it , being a singer is more promising."

"What do you think? The second script that Kunes handed over to Simon Schuster was entirely aimed at framing him. That liar must have made a deal with Johnny Carson. But APLUS made it three days, within three days Simon & Schuster and Johnny Carson are all devastated! Kunes is broke and in jail..."

"I don't know how he did it, you know those methods better than me, don't you?"

"Okay okay Catherine, let's not talk about this. Anyway, no one can persuade you! I think everything is fine with my 'mutant', whether it's you or Mr. Spielberg or whoever at Universal Pictures, whoever is big Don’t even think about asking me to help write or review scripts after changing my rough cut version, I will do what I say!”

At this time, the lights on the set went out, and Alan Pompeo knew that this meant that the staff had packed up, so he tiptoed back the same way.

Back home with a lot of worries, it was past ten o'clock, and the little girl Angelina Ake hadn't come back yet. She was a little worried, so she dialed the other party's cell phone.

"Amy, aren't you coming back?" She still used to call the girl Amy.

"I'm not going back tonight hahaha..." The girl seemed drunk and said with a big laugh, "You...you don't have to wait for me."

"Yo!" Huh? It seemed vaguely to hear the familiar voice of APLUS.

"Where are you? It's so noisy." She asked deliberately.

"At Universal, we're having a party."

"The Blade Runner set?"

"How did you guess right haha..."

Putting down the phone, she walked around the room for a few times before making up her mind. She looked in the mirror, well, her makeup was well maintained, so she changed into her favorite evening dress, took the car keys and rushed out the door.

All the way back along Highway 101, she probably knew that the film crew of Blade Warrior started work at that studio, so she used the Mutant Crew's Universal Studio Pass to sneak in to the door.

"Parties? This isn't the place for parties girls..." was turned away by the set guards.

"APLUS asked me to come." She lied.

"Wait." The guard immediately picked up the walkie-talkie.

"You are..." APLUS's big black bodyguard appeared.

"Alan, Alan Pompeo, I've been in your carriage, Volta, remember?"

"She said Mr. APLUS asked her to come," said the guard.

"Yes." She nodded cheekily.

"I remembered, wait a minute..." The big black man turned around and called out an old white man.

"Hi, Mike." She also remembered the other person's name.

"Let her in." The old man rolled his eyes.

There was no one in the studio, and it was eerily quiet. She looked at the set that looked like an underground nightclub, and followed Mawota and Mike all the way to the rest area at the back. Gradually, she began to hear the sound of music.

Old Michael opened the door of an unmarked VIP dressing room, and immediately there was a strong smell of alcohol and other smells...

She walked in and the door was closed immediately, oh my god! She remembered the scene in Highland Park again, which was even more extreme.

Wait, those two black women on the floor are Taraji? With...with Halle Berry? !

"Amy..."

What about Amy Acker? She quickly found the girl who lived with her, and she also fell asleep on the sofa, in a very indecent position.

What is indecent, it is not indecent anywhere.

"Amy!? Haha, I knew you would come, come on! Come here!"

Aplus, who was entangled with a blonde woman, was sitting on the dressing table, giggling drunkenly and applauding himself loudly.
