MTL - Best Actor-Chapter 9 Change
For some reason, Sean always felt that Naomi's name sounded familiar, and he couldn't be sure whether he had heard of it in his previous life. After all, as I said before, although the memory will not disappear, I think It takes enough stimulation to recall. And even so, the memories are all in pieces, very fragmented, and it is easy to mix with other things and become paradoxical, so he is too lazy to remember in the end.
Aside from these, he still admires Naomi. She just celebrated her 30th birthday not long ago, and before that, she worked as a model, a fashion designer, and an assistant to a fashion magazine editor , but always on the path of being an actor.
Even though I got the first role since I was 18 years old, I have experienced many things from Australia to Hollywood, but I have never had a significant work, but I still insist on it.
At the end of 1997, she finally got a very important supporting actress in an NBC TV series, but she was cut off halfway because the ratings were too low after the broadcast. The financial situation that has not been very good has also plunged into a serious crisis. Now I have overdrawn two credit cards, medical insurance has also been reimbursed for not being able to pay the fees, and apartments are constantly being exchanged. She could only spend the night in her old car.
Even so, Naomi did not give up.
"My mother was an actress for a while, an actress in a stage play, and when I was 10 years old when I saw her perform on stage, I made up my mind to be an actress too." In Sean When she asked her side-by-side what she was going to do now, Naomi, who smiled, did not answer directly, but started from the beginning.
"As some psychologists have said, everyone has a desire to perform, want to express themselves, want to be different, want to get applause, so obviously the assistant's work Well done and I dropped it for a character. Of course I would have backed off if I knew it was going to be like this, but right now I just want to keep going, I don't want to just fall down, or I'll pay The time and energy is meaningless." She spoke very calmly, she could not see the grief of being kicked out by the landlord yesterday, and the firmness in her tone was very obvious.
But at the same time, she unconsciously curled up on the chair and hugged her legs, which seemed very contradictory.
"Thank you," Naomi lowered her head, then raised her head again, "I'll let the agent figure out a way as soon as possible to find a new job...and move out, until then you still live in come back."
"Huh?" Sean, who was about to make a generous appearance, was stunned.
"It's not too narrow here, I can make an extra bed on the ground, and I can sleep on it." Naomi explained, but the sound became a little quieter at the back.
After a little pondering, Sean understands that, obviously, she doesn't have much confidence in whether she can get the role she recently auditioned for. If she doesn't get it, she may not be able to rent a new apartment for a period of time, but she can't keep occupying someone else's apartment and let him live in a motel, so she proposes such a plan, which can be to a certain extent. Solving the current problems can also maintain the little self-esteem that you have.
As for the embarrassment that may arise in the future, I can't control that much now. Anyway, after the previous conversation, the two have a certain understanding of each other and can trust each other.
"Okay, but there is one condition." In this case, Sean is not hypocritical, "I'll sleep on the ground."
In any case, it is impossible for a woman to sleep on the floor, even though she is older than herself.
Therefore, this strange cohabitation life kicked off. Although there is not much space for two people to live, but after all, there is only one room, so occasionally encounter some embarrassing things .
For example, when Naomi wakes up early in the morning and sees a flagpole erected by someone, or when Sean just walks in, she comes out of the bathroom after taking a shower, wearing a bottom Pants and short-sleeved t-shirts, the seductive spring light and shadow inside.
Fortunately, both of them were restrained and good at adjusting, but they kept the atmosphere in the apartment very good.
Sean also talked about a lot of things at home, about his parents, about himself, and about his sister. Because Lianna Tang is only a few years younger than Naomi, she talks the most about things, such as her liking to use her sister's identity to oppress people, or she always likes to call him "Snooze Piglet" and so on.
This nickname comes from when he was a child, Sean, who was reborn as a baby, couldn't take care of himself for a long time. It was normal to urinate and urinate at will. The most important thing is that the brain is still developing. After a little thinking, it will instinctively enter the sleep state for self-protection because of excessive oxygen consumption, so there are far more times when sleeping than when awake, and this nickname is also given.
Although Sean didn't say anything about the latter point, Naomi still burst into laughter after listening to the explanation.
In addition, Naomi will buy some food to cook by herself from time to time, the taste is not as good as the chef in the restaurant, but it is better to have a fresh, Sean does not always have to eat out .
Sean would play the guitar and sing to her at this time. His singing voice is not the best, but he has a characteristic. Polk also sometimes performs some shows. The little things are very human. When he was bored before, he trained it a lot.
For example, Sean pointed the appearance of a pistol at it, and then made a "bang" in his mouth, and the little thing turned on the ground with all fours upside down, posing as if he was shot and killed.
It's just that there is always a delay of five or six seconds, and sometimes even a reward to eat before they are willing to fall to the ground, which is quite funny.
Naomi loves it, after all, small, round, furry creatures are always attractive, let alone well-behaved. Polk also likes Naomi very much. Sometimes she only needs to say hello, and the little thing that was spinning in Sean's arms a second ago immediately jumped into Naomi's arms, making Sean depressed.
However, sometimes he also has regrets. Naomi is beautiful. Although she is just 30 years old, she is still in the golden age of women, and her figure is also well-proportioned. That vaguely mature atmosphere is quite attractive.
Nothing was said.
If the two hadn't lived together now, Sean must have figured out a way to ask her out, so he had to use the memory of another girl, Jordana Brewster, to distract himself.
The other party lives in New York, so I haven't called since I got the phone number.
However, even though he was fantasizing in this regard, it did not occupy his mind. More, it was used to find a job, a role, and an opportunity.
Originally, after the shock of Coman, Sean also doubted whether he could adapt to this job circle and whether he should leave as soon as possible.
If there are no accidents, he would have no ambitions for the time being, and he will live a very leisurely life. After saving enough money, he will do what he wants to do, and spend more than ten years to find his life goals , to be the most idle reborn—if that title exists.
Thoughts, he wants to keep going.
I said before that Sean is not an idealist, and his two lives made him very clear about what the reality is like, and Naomi told him a lot of things in the circle, for example, she also For example, because of his naivety, he finally quit after taking the lead role in a TV series with good ratings, because he didn't want to spend two or three years acting in soap operas.
As for certain things, Naomi didn't say anything, but Sean knew that she must have met, she was so attractive, how could she not have met. Likewise, he also knew what she had chosen, otherwise she wouldn't be a big star, at least she wouldn't be reduced to the point where she couldn't even pay the rent.
And what impressed Sean the most was a little story Naomi told about the warmth of human relationships. No one knew that she and the famous Nicole Kidman were classmates.
Yes, that is the wife of the Hollywood star Tom Cruise, who is very eye-catching beauty in "Batman Forever", Sean was pulled by a friend to see this Several times in the movie, the names of the two of them have been heard even in their previous lives.
And Naomi not only starred in movies with Nicole, but also attended her bachelor party before marriage, and the relationship is definitely not ordinary. But when she faced difficulties and asked her and some friends from Hollywood for help, although they promised a lot, they basically didn't deliver.
This world has never been fair, but in life, you must insist on something.
Friends, family, lovers, family, friendship, love, or Americans always like to talk about it, do the right thing, etc. Maybe the world is smooth and people without edges and corners can live better, but people without persistence will definitely not be able to reach the top.
Sean wasn't at that level, but he didn't want to be a deserter, he didn't want to just admit defeat, he didn't want to leave without trying anything, since a woman like Naomi would If you can hold on to it, why can't you?
So, he started to play tricks more actively, and at the same time opened his eyes and waited, the opportunity is always given to those who are prepared.
"What the **** is going on, didn't you already say it before? Now the filming is about to start, but he told me that there was a schedule conflict, who he thought he was!" One of the seven major film companies One, in a corner of Paramount's studio, a middle-aged man with a beard is roaring furiously.
"Eric, calm down, Eric." An assistant next to him raised his hands, trying to appease him.
"Calm down? So many people are here waiting for that kid, waiting for the phone to turn on, but a phone call tells me that he can't come! How can I calm down!" The middle-aged man called Eric continued roared.
"Maybe we can shoot other parts first, or change the script, anyway, there is no conflict in the plot." Another man suggested, that is the director of the TV series.
"Don't even think about it!" The middle-aged man categorically rejected it.
"But... we're on a tight schedule, Mr. Reese." Another assistant cautioned.
"Then find someone to replace immediately!" Eric Reese waved his hand violently, then strode to the extras rest area, "Listen, does anyone speak Italian? "
As he walked this way, there was a little commotion. Although they couldn't hear it clearly, they all saw it seriously. But after the request was made, people who were eager to try showed their hesitant eyes. This is Los Angeles. If you want to catch a lot of extras who can speak Spanish, but they can speak Italian...that's pitiful.
Reese asked aloud again, frowning high, and seemed rather unhappy.
Then, this time, an arm was raised from the crowd: "I will, sir."
Feel.
"You can? How do you say it?" Reese asked in Italian, regardless of that.
"Not bad, sir, my high school girlfriend is Italian. I have learned a lot from her. Generally speaking, there is no problem in conversation, and I can write some sentences that are not so complicated." Xu introduced himself.
Reese beckoned and asked him to come over and turn twice in front of him. The young man who cooperated well always had a neither humble nor arrogant expression, which made his eyes glow with approval.
"Okay, what's your name."
"Sean, Sean Tang, sir."
"Very good, Sean, now I have an important supporting role for you, do you have an agent? Very good, let him come over to sign the contract!"
