Chapter 026

When they first met, they were not in a hurry to talk about business, just chatting at will.

More than ten minutes later, Simon mended the tire, washed his hands and came back. Then he looked at Sandra Bullock again.

Once upon a time, compared with Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman, who are Hollywood stars with smooth acting career, Sandra Bullock should be regarded as a late bloomer.

Born in 1964, Sandra Bullock was 30 years old when she starred in her famous work speed of life and death.

However, with the popular image of "national fool" and her diligence and high yield, Sandra Bullock has been keeping her acting career active for more than 20 years since she became famous.

In 2013, when Julia Roberts and other old actresses began to fade out of the fans' view, Sandra Bullock was still able to earn a record breaking single film of $70 million with gravity, becoming the real box office queen of Hollywood.

Now Sandra Bullock is just 22 years old.

It's just now.

Simon called Sandra Bullock after returning to Los Angeles on Friday evening, but didn't set the meeting for yesterday. Because yesterday was July 26, Sandra Bullock's birthday.

That's what Simon saw on the girl's resume on Thursday.

Simon also saw from his resume that Sandra Bullock graduated from drama performance in North Carolina, which is why he basically decided to let her play the leading role in "Lola Run" before going through an audition.

Due to the ultra-low threshold of the industry, Hollywood stars always seem to give people the illusion that they are born to act without learning, but the fact is far from that.

In Hollywood, almost all the stars need to accept all kinds of performance training actively or passively in the process of becoming famous. Take the famous Oscar winner Meryl Streep for example. Most people only see her nominated for the Oscars one after another, but few people notice that she graduated from Yale University majoring in drama performance.

Those ignorant people who want to reach the top of their life in Hollywood with a good skin are more likely to end up in the valley.

No film company in Hollywood would casually let a newcomer with little acting experience participate in a film that costs millions of dollars. Similarly, "Lola Run" is very important for Simon who wants to knock on the door of Hollywood. He is not so casual in choosing the heroine.

Before the invitation to Courtney, Simon learned that Courtney had been in Hollywood for three years, and had just appeared in a TV play. His experience and qualifications were enough.

Now, it's the same with Sandra Bullock, a standard academic.

After all, it's just an ultra-low cost production with a budget of only 100000 US dollars. Simon also hopes to spend more money on film production. Professional actors with better qualifications don't think about it. The girl in front of him is just right.

Besides, it's familiar enough.

Under the eaves of the motel, Sandra specially wore a formal blouse and casual trousers for the meeting this afternoon. At this time, Simon looked at herself and knew that the "audition" might have begun. She could not help but straighten her posture and tried to look at Simon.

However.

The boy has beautiful blue eyes.

None of them.

Born with this idea, I can't help thinking of the scar on my left eye corner that I fell out of when I was a child, so I subconsciously side my head.

All of a sudden, the momentum was completely released.

Simon didn't notice these details in Sandra's expression. At last, he looked down at the flat sandals on her feet, went to his bike, patted on the handle of the car, and said to Sandra, "come on, I just have something to do. I'll tell you on the way."

Sandra Bullock nodded as Simon spoke.

Then she felt a little silly. After a little delay, Sandra pointed to Simon's bike and said, "do we ride?"

Simon nodded and said, "it's near Douglas Park. You can leave your car here for the time being."

Sandra Bullock, remembering the distance she had just driven from there, no longer objected.

Simon said hello to the old Spanish man who was still watching and left the motel with Sandra.

Although it was the weekend, the traffic on the street outside the hotel was still very sparse. Simon pushed his bicycle off the curb, stepped on the bus, handed his backpack to the girl behind him, then pointed to the back seat and said, "come up."

Sandra Bullock subconsciously took Simon's backpack and felt dizzy and got on a boy's bike.

Sitting on the back seat, holding a gray servant's Canvas Backpack in her arms, Sandra gazed at the retreating vegetation on the street. Her confused thoughts whirled around for a long time before they gathered together: Dad, your daughter is going to be abducted by a poor boy on a bicycle!Sandra couldn't help laughing when the little man jumped out of a corner of her heart.

That's a silly idea.

Simon heard a laugh and asked, "what's the matter?"

"No, nothing," Sandra said, shaking her head, grabbing the hem of some Simon's T-shirt. "You can call me sandy."

Simon answered, "good."

"So, Simon, why don't you tell me about the movie?"

"It's mainly because I can't say one or two words clearly. I have promised to invite you to dinner. We have an afternoon, don't we?"

"All right, but there should be a story?"

"The story is very simple. Manny lost 100000 dollars. His girlfriend Lola must raise the money for him in 20 minutes, otherwise Manny will be killed by his boss."

"That sounds exciting."

"It's more exciting and very tired, so you have to be prepared."

"I haven't promised to be in your movie, have I?"

"Imagine, many years later, you start to write a memoir: when Simon westero invited me to play in his first film, as if it were fate, I immediately agreed. So many legends, right? "

Sandra couldn't help laughing again and said, "I don't know if it's a legend, but I must have met an egomaniac today."

"Well, don't write it in then."

"Ha ha."

Now that they talked about the movie, they continued to talk about it unconsciously.

As Simon introduced more details about "Lola Run," Sandra gradually realized that it must be a very cool movie anyway.

Simon doesn't ride fast for the sake of the girl behind him.

It took Simon about ten minutes to take Sandra to a shop near Douglas Park called the strong watch shop.

Unlike other watch stores, this one can provide customers with hand-made services.

Simon got the store information from Jonathan's assistant Owen Wright. It is said that many Hollywood movies will also customize the clock props here.
