"Hello, Director Stanton."

As the host, Donald-*** shook hands with Murphy enthusiastically, "Young and promising, the future is limitless. I admire your work very much, absurd and full of talent."

"Thank you," Murphy replied politely. "You are the one full of talent."

He went on to talk about the other party's recent big move, "I believe Mr. *** will be able to enter the White House and bring a different future to America."

Donald-*** only announced not long ago that he will participate in the next presidential election. Although the entire United States knows that he is engaging in self-hype, he is still very contented. Hearing Murphy say this, the smile on his face also changed. Be sincere.

Perhaps, apart from Donald *** himself, only Murphy in the United States knows that this high-profile New York real estate tycoon does not just want to do some reality shows and the Miss Universe contest, but is really planning to become the president of the United States.

It seemed that it was only one step away. Thinking about this, Murphy and Gal Gadot walked into the banquet hall.

"I heard Uncle Nivo say," Gal Gadot is still discussing the New York tycoon with Murphy. "He wants to acquire another 49% of the Miss Universe contest from nbc, and completely own this. Race."

Murphy nodded, "This man is ambitious and very good at doing things. He is by no means as stupid as described by the media."

A staff member led them to a round table. Murphy sat down and looked around. This position was not bad. It was neither the front row that attracted much attention nor the back of no one. It was relatively reliable. The middle position.

"Left," Gail Gadot suddenly gave Murphy a little, "a woman has been looking at you."

Murphy turned his head and took a look. The first thing he saw was a dazzling red hair and unusually fair skin. When the other party saw him looking over, he made a smile and nodded at him.

Seeing Jessica Chastain appear, Murphy also smiled and nodded in response.

"She's Jessica Chastain," he said to Gail Gadot, turning around, "the heroine of the third film I directed."

Gal Gadot suddenly realized, "No wonder it looks so familiar."

She rolled her eyes, and suddenly asked, "I heard Uncle Nivo say that some Hollywood actresses will try every means to please the director and producer in order to get the heroine."

As if he didn't want to give Murphy time to think about it, Gal Gadot turned his head, staring at Murphy and asked, "Have you met?"

"My dear," Murphy said, knowing what Gal Gadot was thinking, and shook his head. "Although I am not a good person, I didn't act like this."

Gal Gadot shrugged playfully. "I'm just kidding."

Murphy smiled indifferently. This phenomenon does exist in this circle. Often the worse the actor group, the more common the situation is. For example, when Julia Roberts auditioned for "Pretty Beautiful Lady", Just ask your agent directly, who you want to sleep with to get the heroine.

This is not called an unspoken rule in Hollywood at all, but a rule of the game.

If there are no wealthy relatives and friends, no godfather like Spielberg, no Jewish descent can get some natural advantages, even without the support of a director like him, a helpless actor thinks To get a heavyweight role, you must think of some special methods.

Not to mention the actors who want to get ahead, even those who have some fame and want to move into the movie circle, if there is no one to help them, the road is also difficult.

There was a time when the crew of "Transformers 3" went to the other side of the Pacific to make publicity. A stewardess over there sent a scarf and said that she had witnessed Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who was born as an angel of Victoria’s Secret, in an unmanned first-class cabin. Unscrupulously lingering with the famous Michael Bay.

Hollywood really has no unspoken rules, because these rules of the game are on the bright side of the circle.

Many Hollywood actresses with good looks always receive some invitations. People who have a background, a reputation and a real market appeal will of course ignore them, because they themselves represent a scarce resource, and those who dream of becoming famous overnight For small actors and small models, these invitations are often the best shortcuts to the Avenue of Stars.

There is a joke among the low-level actors in Hollywood that there is a bed at the end of the Walk of Fame.

Among the first-line and second-line actresses that have become popular in the new century, the most rumored in this regard is Rachel McAdams. Many people and gossip media are saying that she slept all the way.

People like these are helpless and have no inherent advantages. Why do some crews use such newcomers? By acting? Do not make jokes.

Just like Jessica Alba, how good is she acting? His performance in "Sin City" was highly praised by film critics and professional media.

Therefore, acting is a very subjective thing, and the criteria for judgment are often very vague. Just like Murphy’s choice of Jessica Alba at the time, when many crews use new actresses, acting is not a decisive factor, sometimes even before. The three can't get in either.

Returning to the head, actors do not include the descendants of celebrities in the circle and people with backgrounds. Like those young actors who dream of becoming famous and earning both fame and fortune like Julia Roberts in the initial stage, they are born from ordinary, often even I haven't finished middle school. The mind is not top-level intelligence, and there is no special background and talent. Besides the body, there is no other power and tools that can be used, and they have nothing to lose except the body.

Besides, pre-marital **** is a common situation in this country. Even the guy Paul Wilson, when he changed his girlfriend, said that he didn’t try a few more people. How do you know if you will not be in the future? Meeting sex. Fu?

There are some things that Murphy doesn't do on his own. It doesn't mean he doesn't know. Although he can't do it, he won't interfere with others.

In fact, Hollywood can be described in some words on the other side of the Pacific-where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are rules.

"She seems to be embarrassed." Probably because it was a little boring before the banquet, Gal Gadot had been observing Jessica Chastain without a trace. "Always looking at you, but hesitating when I want to come over. ."

She lowered her head slightly and asked curiously, "You..."

Before he finished speaking, Gal Gadot swallowed again, "She's here."

As soon as these words fell, a greeting sounded from Murphy's left, "Hi, Murphy."

Murphy turned his head and nodded to Jessica Chastain who came by, "Hello, Jesse."

Jessica Chastain seems to have something to do, "Can you talk about it alone?"

"Something?" The light from the corner of Murphy's eyes drifted from Gal Gadot's face. "Say it here."

Jessica Chastain glanced at Gal Gadot, and seemed determined, "We'd better talk separately, someone wants to be against you."

Hearing this, Gal Gadot immediately threw away that little thought, and whispered in Murphy's ear, "Go, I'll wait for you here."

Murphy remembered that a private detective was investigating his own affairs, stood up and nodded to Gal Gadot, and led Jessica Chastain to the outside of the banquet hall. The two went out the side door and walked along a long line. Talking while walking along the stone road.

"I don't know if you noticed it. Someone may be investigating you recently." Seeing Murphy nodding, Jessica Chastain was relieved. If the person concerned doesn't believe it, the thoughts she pondered are of no use at all. "Also, shooting You ran into a lot of troubles in "Sin City", all of which came from inside caa."

"Oh?" The two just walked under a coconut tree, and Murphy stopped and asked, "Who is it?"

He was not very surprised by Jessica Chastain's words. There is also fierce competition within caa. Where there is competition, there will always be some subtle or hidden means.

Jessica Chastain did not answer Murphy. After stopping, he stood there for a while, and then slowly said, "My agent Mike has limited ability, so I can hardly win a favorable opportunity for me. I think Bill is very good."

Murphy immediately understood that this was a condition for himself.

Obviously, the difficulties in this circle have caused some changes to the proud **** the opposite side and become more realistic.

"Bill and Mike are friends." Murphy frowned. "I'll talk to him, but I can't guarantee anything."

"Enough." Jessica Chastain believed that the friendship between the two people would break soon, "I..."

She thought about the wording for a moment, and said as softly as possible, "If you have a suitable role in your new project, can you give priority to me?"

This is not difficult, Murphy nodded slightly, "Who is it."

Jessica "Chastain has been Murphy's assistant after all, knowing that he must be treated in moderation," My agent-Mike. ""

Murphy frowned, "Why is it him?"

"I promise, Mike must have a problem." Jessica Chastain recounted what Mike asked her at the beginning, and talked about the details that she observed later, and said, "Mike seems to want to use some means to treat you Under his banner."

After pondering for a while, Murphy said, "Jesse, don't say anything about these things for now, you know, my promise will always be fulfilled."

He won't fully believe Jessica Chastain, there are some things that need to be investigated.

Murphy told Jessica Chastain a few more words, if someone really wants to deal with him, of course he will not sit and wait for death, he will come back, and he is never afraid of someone fighting or fighting.

This conversation took a lot of time. Jessica Chastain didn’t intend to go back to the banquet and left. Murphy stood under the coconut tree and called Bill Rossis. The two passed. We talked on the phone for more than half an hour, discussing the possibilities and corresponding countermeasures.

"Are you not going back to Santa Monica tonight?" Bill Rossis asked at last.

"Not going back." Murphy did not hide, "I live here tonight."
