I Am a Nobleman in England

Chapter 446: The End of the Avenue of Stars Is a Sofa

Before I came to Los Angeles, my understanding of this city was limited to what I heard, as well as pictures and various film and television images. I knew that this is a star-studded city, with a strong secular atmosphere, full of restlessness and restlessness.

Famous for Hollywood movies, bringing together multi-national cultures, the luxury shopping world of Beverly Hills, the sunset view of the charming Sunset Boulevard, the authentic footbath taste of Little Tokyo, and getting lost on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. . . The wonderful combination of the prosperous metropolis without high-rise buildings and the rippling scenery is just like the name "City of Angels"!

Lowering the car window, Arthur felt the warm wind with a hint of fragrance, and looked at the clean and beautiful scenery along the road. The streets of Los Angeles in April were surrounded by a kind of dense purple flower trees, like clusters of purple mist. The petals are blown down by the wind, covering the streets, looking from a distance, it looks like a blue-purple rain has just fallen, and the romance is not inferior to cherry blossoms. . .

Arthur poked his head out of the car window, and the dazzling California sun made everything seem so unreal, with a feeling of vertigo.

The City of Angels, a melting pot of Chinese people, a paradise for movie lovers, the epitome of inclusive and open Los Angeles American culture, is a realistic version of the American dream.

Countless people come here to pursue their dreams, and countless people continue to dream here. Regardless of race or gender, regardless of skin color or creed, as long as you have the pursuit of the American dream, here is an opportunity for dreamers.

Thinking of my sister Eddie who has always wanted to come to Hollywood to pursue her dreams, and the peerless youwu Emily Shaw who is full of endless longing for the American dream, and Emilia Clarke who has come to Hollywood, and the star who gave up her local stardom , Without hesitation, she came to Hollywood to pursue her dream, the ninth miracle Keeley Hazel.

Arthur couldn't help shaking his head and laughing. These women, their rational eyes are covered by so-called fantasies and dreams. How do they know that prosperity and desolation are twin sisters, as much as prosperity, there is as much uneasiness. Behind a bustling city, there is an indifferent and lonely corner.

In front of the spotlight, there is always light, and where the light does not shine, shadows always exist.

During the daytime, Hollywood is rich and luxurious, rich and famous people indulge in pleasure, while poor people see this kind of prosperous scene, and decide to make a name for themselves in this city. But they are deceived by the glamor on the surface, and they don't see the filth underneath.

Here, a story is being told every day, and the content of the story is about money, transactions and human nature.

What is Hollywood selling? It's a movie. But in the final analysis, what Hollywood sells is a dream, a dream of success and fame, a dream that thousands of people look up to, a peak and a trough,

It is the dream of going from a nobody to a superstar.

No matter in Hollywood or anywhere in the world, fame and fortune will always go hand in hand and go hand in hand.

However, the entertainment industry is one of the most divided and realistic industries. The so-called Vanity Fair comes from Hollywood. Yesterday, it was too poor to eat. After the movie became popular all over the world, it immediately changed its appearance. Dressing up and learning etiquette, it immediately became the highest-level figure, even the leader of the bald eagle. The well-known CEO of the company also smiles at you, but for most girls, I am afraid there will be a sense of vanity, and when the whole world suddenly knows you and casts envious, liking, and warm eyes on you, it is Most girls can't resist it. How big is this youhuo?

It's just that, in a country where interests are paramount, having resources represents power to a certain extent, and those little people who want to obtain resources will respect and please those powerful people who have resources, and this has created a situation that will never end. Unavoidable problems, rules!

The qian rule, English is "casting couch", which literally means "the sofa in the audition room", the meaning behind the words, please imagine for yourself. . .

In Hollywood, the Qian rules can even remove the word "Qian", which is part of the content of the rules. Because it's an open secret. Going back a hundred years ago, Hollywood directors and producers chose the heroine in this way, whoever had the biggest cup would choose the one, or choose the one he wanted to sleep the most, often on that audition sofa.

In fact, if you look at this kind of thing calmly and rationally, there is nothing wrong with it, and it is also a matter of course. No matter which country the entertainment industry is in, its competition pressure is very high, and the goals are also big. channel.

The simplest example, if you are a young actor who has just debuted, has acting skills, and looks good, you hope to become famous and become one of the hundreds of thousands of dollars a day.

However, there are thousands of people with the same dream as you, competing for the same role. At that time, what should you do?

You can say, please, I am willing to take no money. But the person next door said, not only do I not want a penny, but I will donate 10,000 yuan to you. There are really many ways to pay the producer to change roles.

Or some investors ask their relatives and girlfriends to play the heroine. This is the most common.

But more entrants do not have money and background, how can they win when compared with many other competitors?

A large number of biographies of Hollywood stars show that most of them come from poor families, and many of them have not even finished high school. It is precisely because only such children have the determination to break the boat, and they do not have a rich dad to clear the way for them with money.

The only thing they can exchange is themselves. They have no other job skills and knowledge. If you don't succeed, maybe you can only go to a restaurant as a waiter. They haven't studied game theory and finance, but they know it. . . It is very valuable in the future to exchange for a performance opportunity by yourself.

Well, maybe saying this has hurt the hearts of many fans. Of course, not everyone is like this. There are also some people who play roles that are not too competitive, and they become popular unexpectedly. Some people meet gentlemen along the way. Some are so brilliant that they stand above thousands of competitors. Hehe, it's all possible.

However, those so-called innocent and pure girls who were hurt by such-and-such a big director, producer, and morally corrupt environment in pursuit of their ideals, whoever believes it is the stupid thirteen.

please! Isn't this a movie in the real world?

In fact, it can be argued that almost no one falls into the trap by accident. There are risks here, but no victims. Whether it is worth it now, the person concerned knows it well. Whether it is worth it in the future depends on luck.

This is also one of the reasons why Arthur will firmly prevent his sister Eddie, Emily Xiao, and Long Ma from coming to Hollywood to pursue their dreams, especially after drinking with Nicolas Cage and listening to a story he told after drinking. After the Hollywood joke, Arthur had a deeper understanding of the Hollywood Vanity Fair.

Nicolas Cage told him that the criteria for Hollywood producers or casting directors are simple and practical, that is: Do I want to sleep with her? "Although this method is disgusting, it is indeed generally approved by the Hollywood industry. In Nicholas's explanation: "The reason why the audience is interested in a certain screen image is that they think so in essence. . . If a producer isn't interested in an actress, he can't guarantee that an audience will. "

Although it is disgusting, but it is very straightforward to express the feelings of all men. For Hollywood, for those Hollywood goddesses, Arthur, a fan of the previous life, with a different identity and conditions than before, to those goddesses It's basically impossible if they don't covet, or have the idea of ​​a qin Fangze.

If he didn't have that kind of thinking, he wouldn't have met Long Ma and just went along with the flow. What was unattainable in the previous life, but easy to get in this life, made him subconsciously have an extremely strong ambition to conquer and collect stars and goddesses. .

That's why, after he met Taylor Swift, the little country queen, he pursued her regardless, because in his previous life, he stood under the stage of Taylor Swift's concert and looked at the radiant, charming, and aloof She can only watch from a distance, even shaking hands at close range is not available.

But now?

Hehe, as long as he is willing, he can do whatever he wants, and he will see the dawn when he thinks about it. . .

The smile on Arthur's face changed when he thought that he would soon be reunited with Taylor, who has a figure comparable to a supermodel, an exquisite face, and a fairy-tale sex appeal. more and more brilliant.

"It seems that if you want to make a success in Hollywood, you may not be able to rely solely on the support of Taylor, a little girlfriend. You still need to have real strength and resources, resources that can make everyone in Hollywood flock to..."

In a world where interests are paramount, only real strength and resources are the basis for others to respect, bow their heads, and please others. Arthur understands this more clearly than anyone else. To put it bluntly, if he Had he not been worth billions and had the aura of a noble earl, he might not have been able to win Taylor Swift, a scheming girl who takes love as an inspiration for her creation, so easily.

"Beep beep——"

A sound of car horns brought Arthur, who was in a wild dream, back to reality. He looked at the surrounding environment with some novelty, and looked at the mansion facing the mansion that was slowly opening the door.

I thought that the mansion that Nicolas Cage lived in would be located in the land covered with gold and silver, but it was unexpectedly quiet and quiet, as if rejecting the glitz and the disturbance of the outside world. Perhaps, the stars prefer to leave the glory to the movie screen and the red carpet. After the movie ends, they are also willing to return to a peaceful life like ordinary people.

The convoy drove into the castle-like mansion, and the gate behind him was slowly closed. After thanking the bodyguard who opened the door for him, Arthur looked at the sixty-six-year-old house in front of him with a central tower. , a villa with a total area of ​​1098 square meters, the exterior walls, doors and windows are covered with green ivy.
