Facing Renly's thanks, Stanley gave a big smile, "So next step, album?"
Renly tilted his head, showing a helpless expression, Stanley knew that he was pressing too hard, so he raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and complained raggedly, "Young people these days really don't know how to be grateful at all. , Some people want to help you release an album and start a career for free, but they still dislike other people's nosy business."
Looking at Renly's gentle and humble smile, but not giving in an inch, Stanley shook his head, laughed dumbly, and wanted to give up, but he still asked, "What if 'Cleopat' La' is in the top ten on Billboard?"
Renly couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Then I should be able to move to a better house." If you rank in the top ten on the Billboard, you should be able to earn a lot of royalties, even if it's just a single.
This response made Stanley both angry and funny.
"By the way, today is Wednesday..." Renly just spoke when Neil's voice came from behind him, "Renly, your phone!" Renly ignored it and opened his mouth, but Neil didn't say anything at all. Willing to give up, he took Renly's cell phone on the bar and brought it over, "It keeps ringing."
Renly took the phone, but didn't answer right away, looking at Stanley again. Stanley nodded to show his understanding, "I know, you can just go without worry. Neil and the others will change the schedule for the evening."
Renly made an "ok" gesture, looked at the clock on the wall, noticed that it was half past two, turned around and patted Neil's arm, walked quickly towards the gate, took his coat, Grab the skateboard, say hi to Janice, and jog out of Pioneer Village.
After stepping on the skateboard, he just remembered the phone that he didn't answer just now. After picking it up, he found that the other party had hung up. He didn't care too much, and just put the phone in his pocket. Then the phone rang again, and this time he picked it up directly with his earphones. He slid across the pedestrian crossing while taking advantage of the street lights, and then quickly slid toward the subway station not far away.
"Hello, this is Renly." Renly said simply after the call was connected.
"This is Roy Lockley." The voice on the other end of the phone also seemed crisp and clear, but Renly couldn't help but paused. The name and the image in his mind were a little different. The other party seemed to realize this, and then It added, "Official Agent of the Screen Actors Guild."
Renly suddenly realized that it was the agent who signed the "Pacific War" contract for him. "Hey, Roy, good afternoon." The subway in sight had just stopped, and Renly accelerated quickly, sprinting all the way. Entering the subway, "Is the missed call just now also yours?"
"Yes." Normally, new actors are flattered when they get a call from an agent or the SAG, because it usually means the job is coming, but Renly seemed calm and composed, as if it was just a An ordinary phone call. Roy was still not used to it, but at least he wasn't as surprised as the first time. "The performance of the 'Pacific War' is good, congratulations."
Roy's tone was a bit blunt, and after a few polite words, Renly's low laughter was heard on the other end of the phone, "Thank you." It was generous, concise and clear, "So, are you looking for me for something?" .
Any rookie who has just experienced the attention of the "Pacific War" will inevitably undergo a slight change in mentality, but Renly's calm attitude shows an air of flattery and composure. Instead, it is Roy who punches cotton. , couldn't help but lose his temper, which made Roy twitch the corners of his mouth and laugh at himself - after years of self-discipline, he was even more suffocated than a 20-year-old kid.
"I received an audition invitation about you here. They couldn't find your agent's contact information, so they contacted me." Roy stopped talking nonsense and resumed his usual resolute manner, "You put your agent Let me know by calling him, let me contact him." He picked up a notebook and a ballpoint pen, ready to record.
"I don't have an agent." Renly's voice was faintly visible amid the roar of the subway.
"What?" Roy felt that he didn't hear clearly.
"I don't have an agent," Renly repeated again, without any hesitation or loss, and without any hesitation.
This time Roy heard clearly, and the movement in his hand stopped involuntarily. "The Pacific War" is so hot now, it is estimated that many people are inquiring about Renly's situation. Although Hollywood is never short of newcomers, those who can show such potential are absolutely sought-after, those agents who are like jackals and tigers and leopards How could it be easily missed - they are not Bole who are discerning, but opportunists who would rather kill by mistake and not let go.
So, the only explanation is that Renly wasn't dazzled and was still weighing it calmly.
Roy couldn't help feeling that this young guy was really an interesting character, and his thoughts went round in his mind, "So that's it..." Roy looked at his schedule, "When do you have a date tonight? null?"
"I'm in Pioneer Village after six, and I'll be there until the wee hours," Renly replied flatly.
"Okay, I'll go to Pioneer Village in the evening to find you, and we'll have an interview." Roy recorded it on his itinerary. The two of them didn't exchange any further conversations, and just hung up the phone. The whole process took less than a minute. Time, without any hesitation. Although this is Roy's way of doing things, Renly cooperated really well,
On the contrary, he was a little uncomfortable - such a newcomer is really too different.
Looking at the full schedule, Roy couldn't help scratching his head. The public agent of the Screen Actors Guild is a thankless job, too busy to touch the ground, but the income is only one-tenth of those of the top agents. , almost like doing charity work.
Generally speaking, Roy will not meet with actors in private, because he is not the full-time agent of a certain actor. In a situation like Renly, basically whoever encounters is whoever, in other words , This time it's Roy, and the next time the union will send another agent, so they are purely a one-time working relationship, and there is no need to establish a personal relationship.
But this time the situation was obviously very special. The other party thought that Roy was Renly's agent, so he called.
Thinking of this, Roy didn't think about it any more, and regarded it as another job. Anyway, he had to have dinner after all, so let's treat it as a dinner for a business meeting.
Audition invitations? Renly couldn't help being a little excited. He didn't know what kind of project audition would be this time. Considering that the other party only sent out the audition invitation after watching "The Pacific War", it was very likely that he was similar to Eugene in terms of temperament and style. In the same line, is it another character with a delicate heart and rich emotions?
If it is a role in the same line, will it repeat itself? If possible, he would still be more inclined to challenge roles with completely different performance styles. He knows that the selection of works for actors just starting is very important. After playing too many similar roles at the beginning, people's image of actors is easy to fix. It will be very difficult to get rid of it later. The most typical is the three leading actors of "Harry Potter". After the series of film performances ended, the three people have been working hard to get rid of the fixed impression of the audience.
However, Renly also knew that he was the type to think too much. Because for most new actors, they have no choice. After a role is famous, it must be a similar role. If you refuse, it will be difficult to find a job later. This is a difficult choice.
I don't know what role this invitation is.
While thinking about it, the subway arrived at the station again, and he glanced up reflexively. Renly noticed that this was the stop where he was going to get off. He quickly picked up his skateboard and rushed out of the subway door. They were all thrown into the back of my head for a while, anyway, the mystery can be revealed tonight.
As soon as you step out of the subway station, you can see the distinctively spired church and colorful graffiti in front of you, the Latin guy with exploding hair and the black guy with dreadlocks dangling in front of the convenience store across the street, staring at the subway exit. , seems to be plotting evil all the time, the restlessness that is suppressed under the busy traffic seems to be in danger of erupting at all times, and even the air becomes drier.
Ironically, looking to the southwest side, only three blocks away, the famous Upper East Side of New York has a panoramic view.
Manhattan Island is a palm-sized place. It extends from north to south and is divided into upper/urban, mid/urban and lower/urban areas. Although the lower/urban area has the world-famous Wall Street, it is basically poorer and messier the farther south you go. , the farther north, the richer and safer. In the Upper/Downtown area near Central Park, known as the Upper East Side, which is also where the most powerful people in Manhattan live, the story of the American TV series "Gossip Girl" takes place here.
However, after the Upper East Side continues northward, after passing through an area, you can come to New York's most notorious Bronx. The buffer zone in the middle is where Renly is now, Harlem.
Different from the Bronx occupied by blacks, Harlem is mixed with dragons and snakes. Italian black/hand/party, Chinese/Chinese/Fuqing gangs, Latin American/drug/traffickers all gather here. This was once the center of crime and poverty. , but also gave birth to a rich culture of street hip-hop, swing dance, and improved jazz dance.
The theater and dance hall culture here is not inferior to that of Greenwich Village in the lower/city area, but for safety reasons, tourists are more inclined to go to Greenwich Village, rather than the scary Harlem area.
Seeing the black man on the other side of the street, Renly didn't worry at all, he threw the skateboard to the ground freely, stepped on it lightly, and drove in the predetermined direction with ease. The familiar and relaxed attitude fell into the eyes of the gangsters, and they exchanged glances. Everyone calmed down again and focused on the subway exit again.
