MTL - You Made Me a Superstar-Chapter 513 Unexpected start up

   Chapter 513 Inexplicable boot

   The casting searchlights are on in the "Spider-Man" crew.

  The staff guarded this lamp, feeling annoyed, but had nowhere to express, as if they were waiting for a story that was doomed to tragedy.

  The homeless people were not far from the crew, watching these people, like watching some monkeys performing acrobatics.

   They pointed and pointed from time to time, taunting, whistling, and eagerly asking if they could send them some more supplies. The weather was getting colder and colder, and they couldn't make it through.

   Zhou Yang was also very tired, but he still sat and waited for someone to come.

   At eight o'clock in the evening, a group of people came from a distance...

All of them were drunk, and there were also a few addicts who seemed to be intoxicated at first sight. After entering the crew, they eagerly asked what movie was being made here, how much the film was paid, how much was invested, and their eyes were full of greed and desire. Some of them even shouted, giving people a headache.

  Xu Mei saw these unreliable people, and the first thing she thought was to ask the security personnel to expel these people.

   Today's casting made her very disappointed, she felt that everyone was doing a useless effort with Zhou Yang, and she even felt like a joke.

   She was inevitably irritable.

   But Zhou Yang waved his hand, saying that he didn't need to be afraid of these drunks, but instead invited them to sit down and asked the staff to make a few cups of tea for these drunks.

  Xu Mei frowned after watching these people making noise in the audition room. She really couldn't stand the smell of alcohol, and finally turned and left the room, and went out to breathe in the back.

   At first, these drunks were very excited, so loud that Xu Mei outside the house felt the eardrum tingling...

  ………………

  There are too many disappointed people in this world.

   They have all kinds of reasons and can only sink in the end, like a soulless walking dead.

Sam is thirty-five years old this year. He used to work for a newspaper in New York. Later, he accumulated some capital and contacts to start his own media. However, in the cruel business competition, he could not survive the bankruptcy. After bankruptcy, he met his girlfriend. Leaving, the brother betrayed, and in the end, he had to go back to Delaware. After returning to Delaware, he wanted to struggle, but found that the debt was so heavy that he had no hope of turning over. Gradually, he lay down and started drinking...

   Over the years, he has met many people.

There was a small director from Hollywood who lost countless capital and finally made a movie that hit the street at the box office. He was slapped hard by reality, and then he was forced to commit suicide by the debt, and barely survived by relying on state subsidies. .

The director brought a lot of actors, and these actors formed a small group. At first, they wanted to make a comeback. After all, directors come to Delaware from outside every year. They also eat and wait to die, continue to drink alcohol, and some even get addicted to drugs. They have been admitted to drug rehab centers several times, but they have not succeeded in detoxification...

   Over time, Sam also mixed with these people, also joined some crews, and mixed some innocuous roles...

   This time, when they heard Spider-Man was casting, they swarmed over.

   I didn't want to use "Spider-Man" to get ahead, but I wanted to cheat some money by relying on my previous acting qualifications, and then continue to live in the next days.

  When Sam met Zhou Yang, he was no different from other directors in the past except that he thought this Chinese man was a little more handsome.

  , without exception, are "full of self-confidence", "full of hope", "ridiculously vigorous", "at the same time inexplicably rigorous".

   They walked into the audition room, bragging about the films they had acted in to this Huaxia director, talking about their past and so-called brilliance, and at the same time staying close to their own salary...

  In the noisy audition room, Sam didn't know what he was talking about, except that he was bragging about his days in New York.

   boasting that he is the president of the newspaper, how many people he manages, what major news reports he has participated in, and what he has experienced...

   Blowing and blowing, I began to have some big tongues, and I unconsciously replaced myself with the previous harsh boss...

   After bragging, he was also asking about his salary...

   But no one can think of it…

   Zhou Yang continued to write down what he was boasting about, and then stared at him for a long time. What was even more unexpected was that Zhou Yang actually offered him an amazing salary of $50,000.

   He woke up a little after drinking.

   This is a paycheck that has never been seen before.

   He didn't know how long it was, and he left the audition room with these actor friends and returned to their bar in a daze.

   This audition did not seem to have caused any waves in Sam's life, and he still followed these people in a daze day after day.

   Even felt that the $50,000 salary was just a joke, and even thought it was a somewhat real dream.

  Five days later…

   December 6th.

  Sam got a call.

   "Mr. Sam..."

"็ Hello Who are you…"

   "I'm Zhou Yang, we met..."

   "Ah, hello."

   "I want to see you again today and talk to you again..."

  “…”

   After receiving the call, Sam put on a coat subconsciously, stared at the cold and walked towards the "Spider-Man" crew.

   When he came to the "Spider-Man" crew, he found that there were some old acquaintances in the "Spider-Man" crew.

   "Mr. Sam, you wait here..."

   He saw the director Barney actually dressed like a dog and walked out of the house, different from the drunken drunk before.

   "Barney, how are you..."

   "I think, I want to help make "Spider-Man" well."

  “???”

   This Barney, who had ridiculed the director of "Spider-Man" two days ago, was a rich fool, but at this moment he actually said such a thing.

   "He is very attentive, really, very attentive, I have never seen such a sincere person..."

   "Yesterday, I met Mr. Zhou Yang. I never dreamed that Mr. Zhou Yang actually watched the movies I made before and talked about them with me..."

   "After chatting with him, I realized that Mr. Zhou Yang is not the ignorant director I imagined. He knows a lot of things, and he understands me better..."

  “…”

  Barney is like a chatter.

   followed Sam and said many, many things.

   These words are very excited, as if a frustrated person has found a vent, and like a lone ship drifting on the ocean, it has found a port to moor.

   After Barney left, another actor came out.

   That actor's name is Kane...

   When Barney came out, he was like a chatter, but when Kane came out, he was very silent. Sam went up to ask questions, and Kane kept leaving without saying a word.

   Looking at the back of Kane leaving, Sam was a little dazed...

   Not long after, Sam was called into the office.

   When he walked into the office, Sam saw a lot of movie discs at first sight.

   After seeing the movie disc, Sam's eyes widened, and some absurd thoughts came into his mind.

   Did he watch all these movies?

   Then he sat down.

   After he sat down, Zhou Yang began to chat with him, talking to him about things in the newspaper office. Zhou Yang seemed to be very curious about the newspaper office and asked many things about New York.

When he was drunk before, Sam felt that Zhou Yang seemed to be an ordinary director, nothing special, but when he met Zhou Yang again today, he found that this Chinese director seemed to have a certain unique aura, which made Sam feel to very comfortable.

   Although he was asking, he didn’t seem to be exploring anything, let alone any secrets. He just asked about the current situation of the newspaper, and how the editor-in-chief was doing…

  Sam unconsciously opened the chat box and chatted about some things at the newspaper office.

   This time the chat was very pleasant, like an old friend who has been familiar for many years.

After chatting for nearly an hour, he saw that Zhou Yang actually took out a $50,000 contract and handed it to him.

   He was shocked when he saw the contract, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed and felt inexplicably guilty.

In the end, he looked at Zhou Yang's sincere eyes and told the truth: "Actually, I made up a lie. I was the boss of the newspaper, but I was a loser. I never succeeded. The scene you mentioned is something I boasted according to the template of my former boss..."

   "You didn't fail...your Daily Journal is just bad luck..."

  “…”

  When Zhou Yang chatted with Sam again about the newspaper he once founded, Sam suddenly realized that Zhou Yang not only watched the movies that these actors had acted in, but even knew his entrepreneurial experience clearly.

   He was horrified at first, but then in Zhou Yang's chat, he gradually became sighed.

  In the end, for some unknown reason, he found a sense of identity. Even though he was many years older than Zhou Yang, his nose couldn't help but feel a little sour.

   He seems to understand his hardships over the years. It seems that he is completely different from those directors he has seen before.

   "Even so, are you still willing to invest in me?"

   "Yes, I will choose you as an actor this time, maybe next time, I will invest in a newspaper and let you be the boss of the newspaper..."

  “…”

  ………………

  Xu Mei watched Lulu who came in and left one after another.

   The mind is very complicated.

   In the past few days, Zhou Yang has collected the information of these people very comprehensively, and even stayed up late every day to watch the movies that every actor had made.

  This is completely unnecessary, and Xu Mei also knew when she was collecting information. These people made all third-rate bad movies, the kind that makes people feel sick...

  What's outrageous is that, except for those addicts, Zhou Yang brought almost all of them to the office and signed them a decent contract.

But when Xu Mei felt it was even more outrageous, in the evening, Zhou Yang went to the nearby high school for a walk, grabbed a good-looking American girl with long legs, and actually announced that this girl was "Spider-Man" heroine!

   Then, the next day.

   "Spider-Man" was announced to start in this extremely inexplicable operation!
