Hollywood legendary director

Early in the morning, Los Angeles.

In the apartment where Heath Ledger lives.

A melodious "jingle bell..." sounded, disturbing the master's dream.

Heath Ledger opened his eyes and pressed the alarm switch on the head of the bed.

The noise disappeared instantly, and the surroundings returned to quiet.

It's 6 o'clock in the morning, and it's really early to get up.

But there is a very important thing today, he also needs to set aside more time to dress himself up.

After washing, Heath Ledger looked very energetic, wearing a casual suit, no tie, and leather shoes.

Out of the community, the time came to 7:30, the agent Davis also drove over here.

Get in the co-pilot, fasten the seat belt, Heath Ledger takes the breakfast that Davis bought along the way.

While eating, while chatting.

The audition time for the movie "Furious" starts at nine in the morning, but it would be better to arrive at Paramount Pictures' headquarters an hour or half an hour earlier.

The car drove steadily on the road, the window was half open, and the breeze kept blowing Heath Ledger's face, making him sigh involuntarily, "The weather is so good!"

Davis, who was controlling the steering wheel, also smiled and said, "Yes, the weather today is very good."

Immediately afterwards, he said: "How about? Are you confident about the audition?"

"Who knows? Try to fight for it." Heath Ledger's tone was very calm.

Paramount Pictures’ headquarters is located in West Hollywood, not far from the apartment where Heath Ledger lives, and it’s easier to reach by car.

But half an hour's drive, when Davis parked the car, the two went to a building where Paramount Pictures needed an audition, only a dozen minutes past eight.

Came to the front desk and said to a lady at the front desk: "Hello, we are here to participate in the audition for "Furious."

The staff knew about this for a long time, and said with a smile: "Well, two, please come with me. After the audition time is nine o'clock, I will take you to the audition room and wait."

The two followed her, walked into the elevator, and rose to the fifth floor.

After getting out of the elevator, and then bypassing the busy office area, I came to the reception room as the audition location.

Heath Ledger walked in and saw that there were already more than a dozen men with similarly dressed spirits sitting in chairs and waiting.

It seems that many people are willing to come in advance.

"Please wait a moment, the audition will begin soon." She reminded again, before turning back to the front desk.

Heath Ledger silently found an empty seat to sit down. He didn't have many friends in the circle. After just scanning around, he didn't find any familiar faces.

He sat quite calmly, and his heart was calm.

After experiencing more, I will not be so worried about gains and losses.

What's more, just the day before yesterday, Director Greg officially called and said that it was the actor of the "Kelly Gang", and he was initially determined to be him.

Although it hasn't been finalized yet, it's just because related salary issues and some salary issues for studio shooting have not been negotiated, and it's not that there is any objection to his candidate.

But even so, he shouldn't have used it to audition, but for some reason, he felt that he should come this time.

What is the reason?He doesn't know, just keep thinking like this in his heart, think!

"Hi, buddy." A greeting rang in his ears.

When Heath Ledger turned his head, he saw a young man with a small head and a bright sunny smile on his face.

"Are you here to audition too?"

"Hmm." Isn't this a nonsense, who is sitting in this reception room, who is not here to audition.

"Then do you know any inside information?" He asked with a hint of eager curiosity in the eyes of the young man.

The inch-headed youth has been paying attention to Heath Ledger for a long time.

In this small compartment, most people seem nervous, some people rely on closing their eyes to relieve their emotions; some people keep playing with the buttons on their clothes; some people are breathing deeply...

Only him, the young man swears that only the person in front of him seemed very calm when he walked in.

So he couldn't help asking this question. Although it was silly, he felt that as long as he could give it a try and improve that little possible opportunity, he should not let it go.

The pressure of competition is too great, and the agent is ambiguous, and there is no useful information at all. Until now, young people with short-term positions do not know what type of role they want to audition, or what are the requirements?

The uncertainty of the audition is too great, and it makes people feel unsure.

Heath Ledger was stunned, not knowing how to answer this question.

What inside story?Davis didn't say anything.

"I only know that it is director Lehmann's new work, which is about war theme, and the others are not clear."

He answered honestly.

The inch young man was very disappointed. He felt that the person in front of him did not want to tell him inside information.

Yes, if I knew it, I wouldn't say it.

Before everything has a result, how can it be to help competitors?

The young man smiled politely, exposing the topic.

It was he who asked himself to be boring.

Heath Ledger's hesitation for an instant, the content of the answer was not painful or itchy, and it also made the young man with an inch head think a lot at once.

I'm not afraid of people thinking too much.This brain replenishing ability, stains!

Heath Ledger was fine, and when he saw that the other party didn't want to talk, he continued to wait.

As more and more people came in the reception room, the time for the audition was getting closer.

At this time, Lyman and Ryan, the accompanying younger brother Thomas, one of the producers, George, and the head of Paramount, Sandy, walked over with a staff member of the Actors Guild who came here.

Lyman looked into the crowd and found Heath Ledger.

He became happy and said to Ryan and George: "Wait, you will start the first round of auditions, record the performance material, and mark it. I still have something to go."

Ryan knew what Lyman’s idea was for, and also understood that after the movie he shot at the time, they thought about looking for Heath Ledger, but when asked, they didn’t find it. When I went back to Australia, it happened to change the agent and the contact information was disordered. Of course, you have to say that the information registered in the actors' union does not involve the exact address. Only the US residential address is recorded, not Australia.)

After all, at that time, people traveled all the way from the United States to France, and they didn't care about the salary of the show, which was a big help.

They can have the current situation, and the love in it is not small.

Although Thomas and George, who had just arrived from France, were at a loss and did not understand why the audition was about to begin, Lyman had something to leave.

But seeing Ryan nodded and agreed, he didn't say anything.

It's just the first round of auditions, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal.

Lyman waved in the direction of Heath Ledger and walked over immediately.

"Hi, man, it's been a long time since I saw you. Would you be honored to have a cup of coffee?"

"of course."

The two looked at each other and both laughed.

The young man sitting behind saw this scene, how could he not know what happened.

He sighed in his heart the shame of "a way out", but his face was envy that could not be concealed.

Seeing the two people leave the reception room one after another, the Cinchou youth sighed secretly.

It's hard to be honest in this world.

On this side, the agent Davis was waiting for the audition result in the aisle.

Thinking that it will probably last until the afternoon, wondering where to go for lunch.

In the blink of an eye, he found his artist walked out of the reception room leisurely.

When did the audition from nine o'clock go so fast?

Thoughts were in surprise, and another person walked out behind.

Lyman Last!Davis was too familiar with this face.

After all, he is still very concerned about matters concerning his artist.

His mind was very messy, because Davis had been joking and laughing while watching the two people not far away, and walked towards him.

Okay, I also said that I didn't have friendship, even my agent was hiding it.

Damn it, really disgusting!

"That said, during that time you went back to Australia to accompany your family."

"Yeah, I didn't think about it. You would go to the Actors Guild to find me. I didn't have a role to play at that time. It's Christmas again, so I went home."

"This is really unfortunate."

"..."

Davis watched the two getting closer, and Heath Ledger seemed to have not noticed him again.

Can't help but find a sense of presence for myself, "Hi, man, why did you come out?"

"This is?" Lyman stopped and asked Davis's will.

"I'm his agent, sir."

Heath Ledger nodded, confirming this fact.

"Then let's go together, just because this matter needs to be discussed with your agent."

With that said, the three of them left the Paramount Pictures Building together.

Then, I went to a coffee shop.

This store is not far from Paramount headquarters. On the second floor by the window, Lehman put down the spoon in the coffee cup and looked at Heath Ledger on the opposite side.

He seems to be more stable and more energetic than when we met last time.

The two have talked a lot along the way, so Lehman said directly: "Man, how about it, I really hope to work with you again."

Next to Heath Ledger, it was Davis sitting.

The agent was very excited at this time, and he couldn't wait for Heath Ledger to agree immediately.

"Furious" is a big project with a production budget of over 50 million. How much progress can it bring to an actor's career?

If it succeeds, I can't even think about it.

Even if you fail, it doesn't affect anything. You can still get a generous salary, and of course, you have your own commission.

Hurry up and agree, Davis roared in his heart.

But this kind of occasion is really not where he talks.
