Chapter 3: 003

After a journey of more than seven hours, the bus finally arrived at the terminal of the trip in the evening.

Simon got out of the car and looked around the street. Although he had never been here, according to the information in his mind, he quickly determined that this should be Burbank city in the San Fernando Valley in the northwest of Los Angeles County, and he had to cross the South Santa Monica mountain from his ideal destination.

On the other side of the mountain is Hollywood, the real geographic Hollywood.

In the 1980s, although many Hollywood film studios began to move to the surrounding areas, more production companies, distribution companies and brokerage companies related to the film industry still gathered on the world-famous streets in Downtown Hollywood.

Katherine got off behind Simon. She also stood on the side of the road and looked around. Before her appointment to pick up her friend arrived, she looked at Simon next to her.

I thought it would be a very boring journey, because the appearance of the big boy became very rich. After exchanging with each other and reading the script, the two talked about a lot of topics with relish in the rest of the journey.

Although she was much younger than herself, Catherine even felt that she was a young girl in front of him for a moment.

It's hard to imagine how this big boy has accumulated so much knowledge. Whether it's film, music, her professional painting, or many other topics, he is able to deal with them freely and talk with them freely. She even has a sense of great benefit after just a few hours of getting along.

About to depart, Catherine suddenly realized that she knew nothing about Simon except her name and the reason why he came to Los Angeles this time to be a screenwriter. But she was unconsciously guided by him to reveal a lot of things. For example, she grew up in San Francisco. This time, she went back to see her parents. She was in Manhattan that year Life in Soho District, why are you interested in movies and want to be a director.

If he did it on purpose, it would be abominable.

However, when you think about it, it seems that you didn't ask these questions. Many of his topics have already overwhelmed her.

Simon looked around and turned to Catherine. Seeing that the woman was just looking at herself, he nodded and laughed at her.

Along the way, Simon found a very strong contrast between Catherine's personality and her film style. The characters in women's images often kill and set fire without scruples, speak dirty words, and live without fear, but Catherine's character in life is very quiet, and she speaks quietly to people, even appears very shy.

Of course, Simon doesn't feel too strange. This kind of intense personality conflict between real life and personal works is almost schizophrenic, which is very common among all types of artists.

With that in mind, Simon asked the woman, "Katherine, is there no one to pick you up?"

"Yes, it's just that it hasn't come yet." Catherine didn't have the words she just wanted to say. Hearing Simon speak first, she had to shake her head and ask, "what about you?"

Simon shrugged: "I thought we could put together a car, AA about the fare."

"I live in Malibu," Catherine said, raising her hand and pointing westward. "Where are you going? If you're on the way, I'll take you there later."

"Malibu, that's a good city," Simon said with a smile. "Why don't you think about taking me in, cooking, washing, cleaning, all of which I can do. Just take care of the food."

Katherine gave Simon a slight look, which was regarded as contempt for his behavior of wanting to eat soft food, but then she explained seriously: "I live with my friends, but I don't have the right to take you in."

Simon laughed. Of course, he was only joking. Even if Catherine did say yes, he would refuse.

It's not that he can't eat Catherine's "soft food", but that he has a deep-rooted resistance to living in other people's homes. He is more used to living in his own house.

Of course, this kind of thing may not come true for a long time in the future.

However, hearing that Catherine said she was staying at a friend's house, Simon suddenly remembered.

Friends?

Is it James Cameron?

In the original time and space, Catherine and Cameron used to be husband and wife, which was very hot in the year when "the bomb disposal unit" won the Oscar, "the bomb disposal unit" vs "Avatar" and "ex wife vs ex husband".

After searching through the information in his mind, Simon quickly rejected the speculation.

Cameron's wife is Gail Anne Hurd, the producer of terminator, and Cameron's bole. They just got married last year. Although Cameron is not a stable man, they should not divorce until three or four years later.

Catherine naturally didn't know Simon's mind. After explaining, she said, "Simon, since you don't know anyone in Los Angeles and plan to become a screenwriter, you should need an agent, right? Maybe I can help you."

Simon had some plans of his own, but when he heard Catherine's words, he got serious and said, "is that OK, I mean, if it's no trouble?""Of course not," said Catherine, shaking her head. "But I can only introduce you. It's up to you to persuade the other party to become your agent. Wma, you know what? That's a very good agency. "

Wma (William Morris Agency), William Morris Agency, Simon naturally knows that this talent agency established in the late 19th century is still the largest agency in Hollywood.

Of course, according to Simon's information, wma's current situation is definitely not good, but the lean camel is bigger than the horse. What's more, wma, an elephant far away from the lean elephant, has no problem in killing a large number of camels. If he can enter such a brokerage company, Simon will certainly avoid a big detour.

After all, although many Hollywood stars always claim that they met an agent when they were shopping and eating by chance, it seems that they have prospered ever since.

But don't doubt that 99% of the gossip is deceptive. If you don't believe it, just open the IMDB page of a star and see how many years they have experienced from their first performance to their popular representative works. You can see how tortuous their road to fame is.

Although there are opportunities and resources that others can't match, Simon had planned to stay in Hollywood for three or five years. He is only 18 years old this year, and there is no lack of time.

Of course, at this time Catherine can give him some help, Simon will not be affected to refuse.

They went to a nearby coin box. Catherine found a phone book from her luggage and looked through it for a while before dialing.

Simon stood by and waited patiently.

Catherine talked to the other side for a while. Then she turned around and asked softly, "Simon, how do you spell 'westero'

Simon immediately spelled his last name: "w-e-s-t-e-r-o-s."

Catherine hum, turn back, talk for more than a minute, then hang up the phone.

"Fortunately, Mr. Friedman is still in the office. I forget that I am off work now, but wma is in a mess recently. It's not surprising that I work overtime." Catherine said sheepishly. She found the pen booth and wrote down something in her phone book. Then she tore it off and handed it to Simon. She told him, "at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon, William Morris headquarters, don't be late. At that time, tell them that you have made an appointment at the front desk and someone will take you there. If you can't, you can also make this call. "

Simon nodded, took the note and looked at it.

At the top is a name, Jonathan Friedman, apparently the Mr. Friedman Catherine just mentioned. Then there's 150 Camino street, Beverly Hills, which should be the wma headquarters address. Finally, there's a string of phone numbers.

He put the note in his wallet and watched the woman pick up her satchel. Simon suddenly remembered and said, "Catherine, what about you? I mean, if I don't get along well, I'll starve to death in the street. I always know how to find you for help?"

Catherine listened to Simon's words and gave him a glance. She took out the phone book again and began to write. On the other hand, she joked: "you have hands and feet. If you can starve to death in the street, I won't care."

As they were talking, a few loud car horns suddenly sounded on the side of the road. A wine red ford car stopped. The woman in the driver's seat obviously couldn't wait to poke her head out of the window and said to them, "Kate, I got you. Hey, little boy, get in the car quickly. Don't talk to the big sister on the side of the road. You'll be dragged into the alley and eaten. "

Katherine will write good contact information to Simon, expression helpless to the woman in the car said: "Jane, you are late again."

"Maybe I shouldn't have come. I must have disturbed you, didn't I?" The woman named Jennie pushed the door open, came over smiling, reached out to Simon and said, "Janet Johnston, little boy, what's your name?"

Simon looks at the woman in front of her. She is wearing a pink tight T-shirt with a string of flowery English letters and high waist jeans. Her shawl is fluffy and blonde. Although she is not as beautiful as Catherine, her figure is quite tall and graceful after wearing high heels. Her well maintained appearance also makes people unable to see her age.

It's just that Simon obviously feels that this woman's character is a bit crazy.

What's more, is it really good to drive in high heels?

With that in mind, Simon shook hands politely and introduced himself: "Simon westero."

"Strange surname," said Janet Johnston, looking up and down at Simon with a look of great satisfaction, then turning to Catherine and saying, "well, Kate, let's take him home!"

Catherine put her luggage in the back of the car by the side of the road and came up to her and said, "Jennie, don't be kidding. Let's go."

Janet obviously didn't want to let them go easily. She put her hand around Catherine's arm and didn't let her go. But she looked at Simon and said curiously, "little boy, it seems that you just arrived in Los Angeles and came with Kate, too? Well, I guess your family is also in San Francisco, right? Which city did I ask for Kate? "Simon looked at Catherine with some curiosity, thought about it, and then said, "maybe, San Jose."

Janet gave Simon a disgruntled look and said in a shuffled voice, "that's interesting. Maybe."

Simon shrugged and wrote, "I don't have a home. I grew up in San Jose."

"How could anyone not have a home?" said Janet boldly, ignoring Katherine's arm movements. "Where did you live before you came to Los Angeles?"

Simon bent his mouth, gave a harmless smile and said, "Watsonville mental hospital."
