As she watched curiously as the boy left, Jonathan Friedman called out to herself, and she quickly walked to the agent's office.

Jonathan just signaled her to sit down first, and then began to whisper something to Owen Wright, who was called in together.

She can only continue to wait patiently, dare not show any dissatisfaction, but also envy the boy just in her heart. Could it be the son of a Hollywood family to be treated so solemnly by Jonathan?

This idea just rose was overthrown by her, the other party's dress is not like a rich man.

Although she pretended to be nothing, she still heard that Jonathan asked Owen to prepare a contract according to his memorandum and to copy a play, which was obviously related to the boy just now.

He's a lucky guy. Fortunately, he's a boy. He won't compete with himself. It's just Pasda. They will have rivals in the future.

So think, in the heart also gave birth to some small schadenfreude.

Jonathan didn't talk about her until Owen left.

NBC cut off "the Superman secret service" after all, which is her first TV series starring. But not too disappointed, she still wants to become a movie star, only to participate in TV series to accumulate qualifications.

Jonathan has just been promoted to vice president of wma recently. Although it's easy for a talent agency to get a vice president position as long as its agents have big clients, the vice president of wma should still be able to bring more opportunities for himself.

The agent did not disappoint her.

Warner pictures is preparing a fantasy comedy called "beetle juice". It has a budget of 15 million US dollars, which is a big production. The production cost of "top gun" is only 15 million US dollars. Jonathan has helped her win one of the most important supporting role auditions. In addition, there is an audition for the heroine of a MGM TV movie, all next week.

After talking about the matter, she left happily with two copies of audition materials.

Pick up your car in the parking lot, turn to Camino street, think about it or go south and go back to Santa Monica on Olympic Avenue. It's rush hour, and Wilshire Avenue in the north can definitely block people.

The traffic flow on the Olympic Avenue was really sparse. She drove forward for two or three minutes and was about to leave the century city. However, she found a figure not far ahead, cheap black T-shirt, washed white jeans and light gray CANVAS BACKPACK. It was obviously that guy.

What's more, his shabby appearance of Luotuo walking on the city road where the sunset is like flowing water gives people a feeling of wandering all over the world, like a lonely wandering poet.

Attracted by her eyes, she unconsciously slowed down and moved towards the side of the road.

This guy is in great shape.

Thinking so shallowly in her mind, she pressed down the window and said hello to the figure on the side of the road: "Hi."

……

Leaving the headquarters of wma, Simon made a phone call to the woman with Catherine's contact information at a telephone booth on the street, trying to tell her that he had confirmed the signing with Jonathan Friedman.

But no one got through. Simon had to leave a message.

Then he began to think about what to do next.

It's definitely impossible to rent a house for the time being. We can only choose to stay in a hotel.

If you only consider the price, there are many places to go.

But in Los Angeles, security is an issue that needs to be taken very seriously. Moreover, without a car, he could not live too far away from wma headquarters.

After some deliberation between Hollywood in the north and Santa Monica in the East, Simon decided to go to Santa Monica. In my memory, there are many cheap motels on both sides of 405 highway between Beverly Hills and Santa Monica.

Determined, Simon follows Camino Street South, then turns to Olympic Avenue. It's about six or seven kilometers from downtown Santa Monica. It's an hour's walk at most. Simon is not in a hurry.

After walking for about 20 minutes, Simon felt a white car slowly leaning towards him. He was a little confused. A girl's greeting voice came from the falling window.

The driver's seat is on the left. Simon looks down into the car and finds that it's Courtney Cox, who he just met at wma.

After entering Hollywood, he will also sign a contract with a brokerage giant like wma. Simon knows that he will definitely come into contact with many faces that he can only see on the big screen in the future, so he has no special feeling about "Monica" in friends.

At this time, to see Courtney Cox take the initiative to say hello to himself, Simon was a bit surprised, but still politely responded: "hello."

Courtney Cox saw the boy outside the car looking at himself brightly, raised her hand and made a random gesture. Then she said, "well, we just met in Jonathan's office. I live in Santa Monica. Do you want a ride?"

"Well, thank you."

Simon nodded with a smile. The curb under his feet was painted with a striking red, which was a no parking sign, so he didn't hesitate to open the door.Courtney Cox put away the audition material that had just been put on the co pilot's seat and put it in the back row. When Simon came in and sat down, she immediately stepped on the gas.

After driving smoothly, Courtney looked up at the boy next to her in the rearview mirror and said, "my name is Courtney Cox, and you?"

"Simon westero."

Simon replied, looking in the rearview mirror at the girl next to him.

At this time, Courtney Cox was in her early twenties. She had short hair like a tomboy, and her face was a little thin. As a result, her eyes were very big, giving people a sense of vitality. Although the whole person is very beautiful, it is difficult to hide the green and astringent, and some of the later amorous feelings in friends are missing.

"Oh," Courtney nodded, taking back her gaze from the rearview mirror and looking at the road ahead for the topic, "so, are you familiar with Jonathan?"

Simon shook his head and said, "no, it's just a friend's introduction. I met you for the first time today."

"That's amazing. You've been chatting with Jonathan for more than an hour since we first met. Have you just arrived in Los Angeles and are you going to be an actor, too? "

"No, I'm a screenwriter."

Courtney looked back at Simon in surprise, and said, "that's even worse."

After all, it was their first contact, and they just chatted casually.

A few minutes later, the car entered the downtown area of Santa Monica through 405 highway, and continued to drive less than one kilometer. Simon signaled Courtney to stop and put herself down.

After saying goodbye to the girl, Simon began to find a foothold in the streets of downtown Santa Monica.

As Simon remembers, there are quite a few motels nearby.

However, knowing that Simon does not have any kind of bank card, and that he can't pay enough deposit in advance for a long stay, most hotels turn Simon away.

After several blocks of searching, Simon finally found a hotel in an alley near the southern edge of the city.

Because I introduced myself to Diego salkado, a Hispanic boss in his sixties and a first generation immigrant. After listening to the boss's English with a strong accent, Simon tried to communicate with each other in Spanish, but they had a good conversation.

Finally, the boss agreed to rent Simon a single room on the second floor near the road for $100 a week. Simon only needs to pay a $50 deposit first, and the subsequent room can be paid once a week.

Obviously, Simon was in a state of financial difficulty. The boss kindly reminded him that he didn't need to leave a tip for the room cleaner because his wife was doing it.

The whole process once again made Simon realize the truth of "how important it is to master a foreign language.".

It took a whole day to sign the contract the next day.

In order to avoid any clauses that caught him off guard, Simon carefully studied the contents of the 20 page contract several times. Although he can't afford a lawyer now, fortunately, the relevant information in his memory is enough. Finally, I discussed with Jonathan Friedman again, adding some details.

Sign the agency contract, the next thing to do is to wait.

Even though Jonathan Friedman is very optimistic about the script of "Butterfly Effect", script sales can never be completed overnight. Many scripts will even stay in the hands of agents for several years. Simon has certain psychological preparation for this situation.

However, although he signed a three-year contract with Jonathan Friedman, Simon will not be 100% unprepared to hang himself on the tree of wma.

There is also a restrictive clause in the detailed contract. If Jonathan Friedman is unable to enter into a deal with the film company after Simon has submitted three scripts in succession, Simon has the right to terminate the agency relationship with the other party after the third script has been submitted for three months and the complete contract period exceeds nine months.

Having settled his contract with wma, Simon began to work on his livelihood.

In fact, Simon is obviously better at this than anything else.

In just two days, Simon got a job at a large supermarket in the middle of Santa Monica.

This 24-hour supermarket named Griffin supermarket should be a non chain self-management supermarket. When Roger Griffin, the middle-aged and fat boss of Simon's supermarket, saw that the good-looking boy had skillfully completed a series of work, such as replenishment, inventory, stacking and even cashier, he immediately felt that Simon had a bright future and readily hired him.

However, in terms of salary, Roger Griffin may be determined that Simon can not find too many jobs. He is very stingy and only willing to pay the basic salary of $3.50 an hour.

The only advantage is that the salary of this job is settled every week. Simon can get $140 every week, which is just enough to pay for his basic living expenses.

However, on the third day of working, Simon had to face a thorny problem. When he checked into the hotel a week ago, he had less than $100 left in his pocket and paid a $50 deposit.Now?

It's time to clear the house in the first week, but it's not time for Griffin supermarket to settle the salary.
