Chapter 406 Bar
WMA Brokerage Company currently has 150 brokers and manages the brokerage contracts of more than 500 actors, singers, football stars and other celebrities.
On average, each manager has four to five artists.
In addition to Daddario, Susan Cobos has three other actors, all of whom are second- or third-tier actors.
The most famous among them is Jessica Chastain. She was originally a TV actress. She entered the big screen in 2006 and successively played important roles in movies such as "Jolina" and "Murder on the Orient Express", making a name for herself in Hollywood.
Link remembered that in the movie "The Help" produced by Palm Beach Pictures, Jessica Chastain seemed to also play a small supporting role in it. Considering that Susan and Catherine were acquaintances, it would be understandable for the other party to get this role.
Ms. Susan introduced her other artists face to face, probably hoping that he would take care of them at his convenience.
Link doesn’t mind this either. Jessica Chastain is a capable actor. If Lionsgate has a suitable role, it won’t hurt if she takes proper care of her.
When working in Hollywood, connections are very important. Susan is a veteran agent of WMA, so she may be able to establish a good cooperative relationship with WMA.
After chatting for a few words, Ms. Susan picked up her bag and left.
Link sent the other party to the door, picked up the rose that had just been forgotten on the shelf, and inserted it into the vase on the window sill.
The setting sun is brilliant outside the window, and the rays of rays are thrown wantonly on the street. Several red roses on the windowsill look even more beautiful against the orange rays of the sun.
“Where’s Susan?”
Dadario wiped his hair and walked out of the house, wearing a long suspender skirt that cinched the waist, revealing the full curves of his chest, slender waist, and white and slender calves below the knees.
"gone!"
“What were you just talking about?”
“Of course I’m talking about you.”
Link took the towel in her hand and wiped her hair, making her long wet hair fluffy, soft and fragrant.
“What are you talking about about me?”
Dadario blinked his big eyes and smiled.
“Susan said you are suitable for acting in suspense movies, and is going to let you act in more such movies and become the queen of horror movies.”
“Queen of Horror Movies? It sounds too ugly, as if I look scary. In fact, I don’t like to act in horror movies. If there are good movie roles, I also like to act in beautiful and literary movies.
Like Anne Hathaway's "The Devil Wears Prada" and "Rachel's Wedding", Scarlett Johansson's "Lost in Translation", and several Jennifer Garner movies are also good, but I have never encountered anything like this. Role. "
D'Addario said with a shrug.
“Then you can choose any script you like now, and I will find a way to help you get the role.”
Link kissed her soft neck.
"No, after you acquired Lionsgate Pictures, a lot of news said that you would lose a huge $800 million because of Jennifer. I don't want to be Jennifer's second and make you lose more money."
Dadario combed his long hair and winked his big eyes slyly.
“Don’t worry, Lionsgate Pictures will not go bankrupt. I will make Lionsgate Pictures the seventh largest company in Hollywood, even comparable to Warner Universal Pictures.”
Link hugged her waist from behind. If he hadn't measured it himself, it would be hard to imagine that a girl as tall as her, with such full **** and hips, would have such a slender and flexible waist, and she could still feel her abdomen through the skirt. vest line.
"Yes, I believe you can do it. In my heart, you are the most powerful man in the world."
D'Addario touched his chin and smiled.
Link smiled softly and picked her up.
Because Daddario had just arrived in Los Angeles, he couldn't run away after going to bed. He called Bob downstairs and told him that he was staying here tonight. He also called Ms. Anna and told him own whereabouts.
D'Addario heard that he was very happy to stay overnight tonight, so he pulled him and said that he wanted to go shopping together.
Link agreed to her suggestion, put on his peaked cap, and under the cover of twilight, took Daddario's hand and came to the bar street in West Hollywood, also called West 41st Street on Hollywood Boulevard.
There are many cafes, bars, restaurants, and several Broadway-style theaters here. It is full of entertainment at night and is also one of the liveliest neighborhoods in West Hollywood.
The two of them held hands like ordinary couples, holding snacks and drinks, walking and admiring the nearby street scene. Link found that this arrangement was not bad.
I have been busy with the company's affairs during this period. I have been busy from morning to night. After returning home, I have to read best-selling books. I have not been so free for a long time.
Like now, it is also a kind of enjoyment to take a beautiful woman and walk around the streets.
“Do you rarely go out to walk around the streets?”
Dadario held a glass of cherry juice and held his hand.
“Yes, I spend most of my time training and dealing with company matters every day. When I have free time in the afternoon, I read and practice piano. I rarely go out for shopping.”
Link looked at the passers-by and remembered that he had not gone shopping much since he came to America.
When Taylor was still there, she would sometimes pull her out to carry bags. Later, as his fame gradually grew, paparazzi would swarm him every time he appeared in public, which was very inconvenient. He simply stayed at home and stopped hanging out.
However, since the Internet craze last year, everyone seems to be tired of his scandals. The scandals about him in the media are decreasing day by day, and even the paparazzi around him are decreasing.
This year he moved to Hollywood and became the boss of Lionsgate Pictures. He was too busy with work and had no time to get a new girlfriend. The media had no new reporting material and even less coverage of him.
Feels very good.
The two of them walked through a street, and when the neon lights on the street lit up, they walked into a high-end bar called "Transformation Queen". It is a bar that sells imitation shows and holds one or two imitations every week. show, imitating popular stars.
When the two entered the bar, there was a singer on the stage who was dressed like Adele and sounded like Adele. He was singing the title song of Adele's new album "Someone Like You".
Adele's new album "21" was released in early April. It sold 374,000 copies in the United States in the first week and easily topped the Billboard album chart. In the second week, it sold 269,000 copies, a very small decrease.
The first lead single "Someonelikeyou" topped the singles chart for two consecutive weeks and became a huge hit in the United States.
Of the popular songs in the world music scene this year, the only one that can compare with this song is "Just the Way You Are" by Mars. This song has topped the singles chart for six consecutive weeks and is very popular.
When fans saw that he wrote the lyrics and composed the music for this song, and the news said that it was a song he composed for Ivaca, they all lamented that he was a scumbag and loved him so much. Many fans advised him to have more girlfriends. Save up a few more good songs.
“Dear, when will your new album be released?”
In the booth, Daddario listened to the song for a while, then looked back at him and asked.
“August and September.”
"Is there that song "Lethergo"?" ˆ ˆ "Yes, one of the main songs."
Link put his arm around her shoulders and said.
“Alas, the audition failed again.”
“Don’t be discouraged, you are good at acting, but you just haven’t found the right role.”
“Ramy, didn’t you just take part in the new movie starring Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts? The situation will gradually get better.”
“That’s not called participating in the show, that’s just playing a part-time role.”
“It’s great to be able to play a small role in a big drama, but many people don’t even have the chance to join the drama.”
While Link and Daddario were whispering, the sound of three people talking came from next door. It sounded like a few young actors who were pursuing their dreams in the entertainment industry.
“The competition in Hollywood is so fierce. I went to audition for The Hunger Games today. Can you believe it? There are more than 60 people competing for the role of a male lead. It’s too exaggerated.”
Said the man who lamented his failed audition.
“The Hunger Games? Is it a Lionsgate movie?”
"I have also heard about this movie. I heard that when Jennifer Lawrence passed the audition for the leading role, but was rejected by Harvey Weinstein, Link was very angry. He spent $800 million on the spot to buy Lionsgate Pictures and let Jennifer Lawrence It’s so cool to be a heroine again. If I have a boyfriend like this, I can go anywhere in Hollywood.”
“You didn’t do it on the spot, right? I heard that Link used Twitter stock trading and lost hundreds of millions.”
“Link is so rich, hundreds of millions is nothing to him.”
"I met Jennifer Lawrence on the set before. She was also a small actor at that time. We also exchanged a few words. Now with Link's help, she has been the heroine of several movies in a row. I will meet her in two years. It’s time to call her a big star.”
“Yes, no matter how good your acting skills are, it can’t compare to having a good boyfriend.”
“Competition in the film industry is becoming more and more intense now. Singers, models and internet celebrities are all coming to Hollywood to make movies. It’s hard for people like us to get ahead just by relying on our acting skills. I also want to find a boyfriend with a lot of money.”
“Persevere, gold will always shine.”
Hearing the discussion of several actors next to him, Link smiled softly. He has been a big star for a long time. Every day he sees big stars, multi-millionaires, and billionaires. They talk about album sales, movie box office, and stocks. price.
It seems like it’s been a long time since I heard anyone talk about people’s livelihood problems.
It sounds interesting too.
He saw that Daddario was also listening, and he was worried that she would be angry when she heard about Jennifer, so he asked her if she wanted to go back and rest.
“Don’t worry, I won’t mind.”
Dadario pulled him and said softly.
"real?"
“Yes, I’ve seen Jennifer Lawrence’s movies and her acting skills are very good, but I feel like I can’t perform at her level.”
“You are also very good, but you lack the experience of big dramas.”
Link pinched the tip of her straight nose.
“Hey, Alex, it’s really you.”
Suddenly someone said hello in the aisle.
D'Addario quickly sat up and looked at the person who greeted him. The person who came was a woman in her twenties, wearing a fisherman's hat, a T-shirt and jeans, dressed very low-key.
But that face is very famous, with charming eyes and flaming red lips. It is none other than Megan Fox, one of the famous Hollywood actresses.
She is accompanied by a middle-aged man, like her husband Brian Austin Green, who is also an actor, but not very famous.
“Hi Megan! Are you here to listen to music too?”
D'Addario stood up and smiled.
“Yes, come and sit here after filming. Is this your boyfriend?”
Megan Fox kept looking at Link, but the location where Link was sitting was relatively dark and she couldn't see his face clearly.
D'Addario looked back at Link, blinked his big blue eyes, and asked him if he wanted to get to know him?
Link smiled lightly, put his arm around Daddario's waist, said hello to Megan Fox, and shook hands with the two of them.
At the premiere of "Transformers 2", he was invited to sing the theme song "Give Me Reason". He met Megan Fox once, and he was not a stranger.
“Link...Mr. Baker?!”
Megan Fox screamed in surprise when she saw it was him. Her eyes kept darting between him and Daddario, and she gave Daddario a narrow smile.
While the four people were introducing each other, a man with an Egyptian face next door sat down confidently with his eyes wide open. He looked at his companions and asked, "Do you know who I saw?"
“Megan Fox? I just saw her too.”
The companion said.
“No, it’s Link, Mr. Link Baker.”
"real?"
Others also stood up and took a peek, and found that it was indeed the legendary Link Baker. They all showed surprised expressions. Who would have thought that drinking in a bar would sit next to a billionaire and the boss of Lionsgate Pictures? ?
“Damn, he’s sitting right next to us. Is it possible that he heard what we were talking about?”
The young man with an Egyptian face asked nervously.
“Lami, it’s okay, we didn’t say anything bad about him.”
The companion comforted him.
The young man named Lamy recalled what he just said, and it seemed that there was nothing excessive.
He took a sip of his beer and listened carefully to what was going on next door. Megan Fox said goodbye shortly after sitting down. After two or three minutes, Link also got up and left the booth with his female companion.
Lamy stared at his figure closely, suddenly clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and bravely walked towards him.
