Chapter 167: First up
Scott Speedman, born in 1975, was a swimmer and even participated in the qualifying competition to compete for Canada's Olympic qualifications.
Unfortunately, due to injury, I was unable to continue and changed my career to become an actor.
Tall, handsome, and sunny, Scott has excellent appearance. Just three years after entering the industry, he successfully served as the leading actor in the TV series "Felicity", although the series did not become a big hit. , but the performance was still good, and it was booked for four seasons; moreover, the producer of the series was the later famous JJ-Abrams.
There is no doubt that Scott is also looking for opportunities to enter the film field.
Anson was able to recognize him because he later played the leading role in the "Underworld" series, partnered with Kate Beckinsale, and became the envy of countless male viewers.
Unfortunately, Scott's career as an actor has never been able to flourish.
Anson was a little surprised that Scott was also a candidate for "Spider-Man".
But maybe, this is a positive sign. From Scott to James Franco, they and Tobey Maguire are all handsome guys with different styles. For Anson, the door of opportunity may be A little more open than expected.
But I don’t know what stage Scott has entered in Sony Columbia’s casting process. Is it still an audition or has it entered a deeper round?
Obviously, Scott also knows that "Spider-Man" is a rare opportunity for him, and he hopes to seize it firmly, so he is particularly active at this time.
——With a smile on his face, his body language is a little exaggerated and a little stiff. While being proactive, he reveals the nervous and complex emotions in his heart.
Then.
Anson saw that Sam raised his head, his eyelids were still drooped, as if he had not woken up, and he looked at Scott through the slits in his eyes. He had already seen through the calm expression. Everything, no ups and downs.
No response.
Scott was immediately embarrassed, but he had no intention of turning back. If it didn't work, he would bite the bullet and refuse to admit defeat:
A chance encounter, this is a chance encounter!
Scott pulled out the chair and sat down opposite Sam, dancing and talking happily, but Sam still looked hopeless, seamlessly transitioning into "Zootopia" The sloth lightning emoticon.
No words, no expressions, no movements, nothing. Just like this, the atmosphere gradually... reached its lowest point of embarrassment.
The laissez-faire posture pushed Scott into the predicament of a one-man show. Although the surroundings were still noisy, the air in that corner was almost stagnant.
Your toes can create a Disney castle.
Now Anson understands——
The trick of encountering by chance should not work, but may be self-defeating.
Anson didn’t panic, the more moments like this the more he needed to be calm and rational.
Withdraw your gaze, just use your peripheral vision to pay close attention to the movements in the corner, but try to relax as much as possible. Anyway, if the morning encounter is unsuccessful, the subsequent audition will still be a showcase opportunity, and that is the key.
He should act naturally and think about the coffee he is going to order, just like any ordinary customer who comes to the cafe to buy coffee.
"Espresso, double."
"Latte, with more maple syrup."
One person after another, ordering quickly, but next to The process of picking up meals was a bit crowded, and it was Anson's turn to be the next person.
Then, right now.
A woman in a black suit had just finished getting her coffee and was about to take a step forward when she accidentally collided head-on with the man who had just finished ordering.
The lady felt like she was hitting a wall. She stepped on the emergency brake while moving forward and leaned back. She was about to take a sip of coffee when she was interrupted. Before she could react, the coffee fell. .
“Ah!”
The lady exclaimed.
The next second, the man also took a small step back, and his center of gravity shook violently. But just as he stepped back, he stepped on the feet of another person who was queuing up to order. The two people were huddled together. He's about to fall down. Huh!
ah!
Exclaimed, stunned, panicked, gasped, completely in a mess.
But the next second——
Wow!
The eyes of admiration and surprise gathered in the same direction, and then you can see Anson, who was innocently affected by the disaster, trying to turn the tide.
In a hurry, he took action reflexively, because Anson knew that the team behind him might stagger like dominoes in a chain reaction, or even get injured, and he needed to protect himself.
At the same time, I caught the shadow of the coffee cup falling quickly like an iron ball out of the corner of my vision, and I immediately realized the danger. Even if I didn't fall, if the coffee spilled, the hot liquid might splash and cause burns.
What to do?
In the flash of lightning, Anson is not only calm but also witty and reacts quickly.
With his left hand, he supported the backs of the two people in front of him like a pillar, and pushed them forward instantly. The collision of strength and strength formed a cushion.
The right leg subconsciously stretched out and cut into the position between the coffee cup and the ground like a soccer ball. The coffee cup unexpectedly landed on the shoe.
At the same time, his right hand stretched out like a tango, opening his body to maintain balance, and in the midst of the chaos, he pressed the pause button in a thrilling way.
So.
A delicate balance is thus formed.
The coffee was not spilled, the customer was not poured, and the imminent disaster was easily eliminated. That is to say, the lady in the black suit fell back and fell into the crowd, looking slightly embarrassed, but fortunately, she was alone. Human weight is limited, and the crowd quickly regains its footing.
Chaos just emerged, but it was under control in a matter of breaths.
In the coffee shop, I was a little stunned. All the blood rushed to the heart in a short period of time, but before it had time to burst, it was already stagnant and unable to breathe.
After half a beat, the crowd realized Anson's performance, and cheered with joy after the exclamation and joy after the sigh.
“Roar!”
"Ho ho ho!"
There were applause, whistles, cheers and admiration, and they were bustling and intertwined.
In an instant, all the eyes from different corners of the cafe gathered. After understanding the whole scene, the applause and cheers became more and more violent, and the hot and scorching eyes fell on Anson's skin. You can clearly feel the heat wave burning up.
Even customers who were about to turn around and leave couldn't help but stop when they heard the noise coming from behind. They pressed the pause button on their busy daily life and looked at the scene in front of them with surprise and astonishment. , one or two showed expressions of disbelief and exchanged glances.
Including Anson himself, his heart suddenly tightened.
It is self-rescue and conditioned reflex. The correct response can be made in an instant to minimize the damage, and the brain and body can make accurate judgments.
Huh.
I must thank you for skating recently and regaining control of your body. The balance and explosive power of the eighteen-year-old play an important role at critical moments.
But even so, Anson himself did not expect that such an outrageous and miraculous response would actually come true!
Perfect execution.
It was only then that I was able to relax a little.
"Roar!"
"Ahhh!"
The whole audience cheered.
Third update.
