I'm in Hollywood-Chapter 329

Ivanka Trump wrinkled her nose and snorted softly, then glanced displeasedly at her father.

Donald Trump awkwardly whispered to Eric, “Ivanka is mad at me. I promised to bring her to see you filming a movie, and only then did she talk to me for a few words.”

Eric raised an eyebrow slightly, “Is there something wrong?”

“I… I divorced Inny’s mother a while ago,” Donald Trump didn’t hide it either, “So, you understand.”

Eric remembered seeing Donald Trump’s wife at the premiere of “Home Alone 2” last year. At that time, the two seemed to be fine. However, this was other people’s business, and he didn’t want to ask too much. The divorce rate among Americans exceeded 50%, and Eric was almost used to it. Among the people he knew now, most of them had divorced or had parents who had divorced.

After wandering around for a few laps, Ivanka suddenly approached Eric, “Eric, Dad and Mom are divorced, and you’re not a good person either.”

Eric was slightly stunned. This… the logic is a bit too strong.

Your dad dumped your mom, and it has nothing to do with me.

Eric helplessly shrugged, “Inny, I’m innocent. This doesn’t seem to have anything to do with me, right?”

“Did you forget what you promised me back then?” Ivanka asked angrily.

Eric thought for a moment, then shook his head, “How about you give me a hint?”

“Hmph, you bad guy,” Ivanka knocked on Eric’s body with the bunny plush toy in her hand, “You promised me to let me act in your movie, but now you’re filming, and you didn’t even inform me.”

“Oh, this,” Eric suddenly realized. He just casually said it back then, thinking that Ivanka, at her age, might forget it soon. Unexpectedly, the little girl remembered it even better than him, “But there is no role for a little girl in this movie, right?”

“Hmph. Bad guy, you’re making excuses and not keeping your promise. I won’t talk to you anymore in the future,” Ivanka said angrily, turning her face away.

Not talking to himself, this threat is a bit serious!

Eric thought for a moment before saying, “Inny, how about this? You can play a little girl passing by the lead actor later, and it would be better if you can hold your bunny.”

Ivanka wanted to continue to be angry for a while, but she couldn’t resist Eric’s temptation. She soon turned her face back, “Really?”

“Of course,” Eric nodded solemnly. As just a minor character, it didn’t matter much. Of course he couldn’t say what he was really thinking: “You said you took an acting class, let me see what you’ve been practicing.”

“You’ll be surprised for sure, a guy who knows nothing but the director.” The little girl sarcastically complained.

Eric was speechless, he hadn’t forgotten that line.

The lunch break quickly passed, the scenes with Nicolas Cage and Whoopi Goldberg were self-evident. Originally, there were only adults on the street, and no little girls appeared. Now, with the addition of the little girl, Eric had to rearrange the scene.

“Eni, wait until the lady walks over here before she can pull you and start walking around. Keep going along this road until the other side. Remember, act as if nothing happened. Don’t look at the camera lens, and don’t curiously stare at the lady in the pink jacket.”

“Ah, I know, I know, you talk so much,” Ivanka waved her hand.

Eric shrugged and walked back to the director’s chair. Originally, he proposed that Donald Trump hold hands with the little girl to play the role of a passerby, which could ease their relationship. Donald Trump was naturally very happy, but unfortunately the little girl refused, so Eric had to pick a lady from the extras to pull the little girl and pretend to be a mother and daughter.

“Take your places, get ready to shoot,” Eric shouted to everyone with a microphone in his hand, and all the actors took their positions.

“Action!”

As the sound fell, the monitor showed the following scene: Oda Mae, who had just donated a check for four million dollars to the welfare home, walked forward with a look of disappointment.

“Oda Mae, I’m proud of you,” Sam’s ghost followed behind Oda Mae.

“I don’t care if you’re proud of me or not. Why does a nun need so much money!” Whoopi Goldberg played Oda Mae, who was filled with indignation and complained to the air, “Don’t bother me anymore, and don’t talk to me anymore.”

Sam looked at Oda Mae walking away and added, “You’re amazing.”

Upon hearing this sentence, Oda Mae suddenly turned around, unable to see Sam, and looked around before spitting fiercely into the air and walking away in a comical manner. Eric almost wanted to applaud her. Meanwhile, on the other side of the street in the surveillance monitor, a little girl holding a Bugs Bunny plushie was innocently walking with a woman, seemingly oblivious to the situation. The little girl even glanced at Oda Mae, who appeared to be talking to the air, and then said something to her “mother” while looking up. However, the extra actress playing the role of the mother didn’t react to the sudden conversation and paused briefly in her steps.

“Cut,” Eric shook his head regretfully. If the extra actress could have cooperated, the shot would have been perfect. After all, Oda Mae was talking to thin air and even spitting, and it would be abnormal if the surrounding pedestrians didn’t react. On the other hand, the little girl’s curiosity about what Oda Mae was doing seemed very natural.

“Wait a moment,” Eric said to everyone and walked to Ivanka and the extra actress. “What’s your name, ma’am?”

“Director Williams, you can call me Elena,” the extra actress said nervously. She realized that the problem was with herself, although she couldn’t help feeling resentful towards the little girl for suddenly speaking out of turn. However, she didn’t dare to say it out loud because the little girl had a special relationship with the director.

“Well, Elena, what did Inni say to you just now?” Eric asked.

“She asked me, ‘Auntie, why is that lady acting like that?’” Elena answered truthfully.

Eric nodded. “That’s right. If you had made the appropriate reaction just now, the shot would have been perfect. For example, Whoopi Goldberg talking to thin air would attract more attention from passing pedestrians. Therefore, Inni’s reaction was correct. Oh, don’t worry, I’m not criticizing you. I just hope you can cooperate with the shot in the next take and make an appropriate reaction.”

“What should I do in response?” Elena asked.

Eric glanced at Whoopi Goldberg who had come over and smiled, “If you see a woman going crazy on the street with a child, your first reaction would be to walk away quickly.”

“Hey Eric, do I look like I’m going crazy?”

“You look exactly like it,” Eric laughed and said to Whoopi Goldberg.

“Okay, that’s enough,” Eric finished and pinched the little girl’s cheek. “Enni, you did a good job just now, let’s continue.”

“Hey, don’t pinch my face, I hate it!” Ivanka, who had been a little proud, suddenly waved her small hand angrily and opened Eric’s ‘claws’ reaching for her face.

Eric shrugged and then instructed everyone to start again.

The same scene played out again, and the performances of Nicolas Cage and Whoopi Goldberg were flawless.

As Oda Mae walked to the center of the road and spat, a “mother and daughter” happened to pass by. The little girl, holding a rabbit puppet, looked at Oda Mae curiously and said something to the middle-aged woman, who nervously grabbed the girl’s hand and hurriedly walked away without explaining anything to Whoopi Goldberg.

“Good, very perfect!” Eric applauded and said, and many people around them clapped their hands, even though they didn’t know exactly what had happened.

During the break before the next scene, the little girl proudly came to Eric’s side and reached out her little hand.

“What?” Eric looked at the small hand reaching out to him in confusion and asked.
