Chapter 225 It’s hard to tell the real from the fake
The screen auditions are all over.
James Franco deliberately raised his chin, showing an arrogant expression, looked at Anson, and shook his head slightly, "It seems you have no chance. What should I do? I performed too well today, Even I almost fell in love with myself."
After saying that, James was immersed in his own thoughts and sighed repeatedly.
Anson stood aside with a calm face, "Even you yourself are a little bit behind, just 'almost'. I think others may be a little far behind."
James: ...
Looking at James' stuck expression, it seemed that his brain couldn't turn around for a moment, and she didn't understand the logic of Anson's words. Alyssa couldn't hold back and burst out laughing. But he immediately put away his smile, controlled himself, and lowered his gaze to avoid attracting the attention of others.
Alyssa glanced at Anson secretly, and then hurriedly took it back. Her cheeks were slightly red, and she was hesitating how she should express her gratitude. Thank you Anson for cheering her and calming her down.
As a result, Alyssa's thoughts were interrupted, and a confident and bright voice came from beside her, "What do you think about having a drink at the bar tonight?"
It was Kate.
Even if a group of actors gather together, Kate's confidence exuding from the inside out is unstoppable. It is a temperament cultivated since childhood. At a glance, you can tell that this eldest lady should have grown up in a honey pot and is used to it. Everyone surrounds her and no one says no to her.
Even in Hollywood, it’s still the same.
Kate raised her chin slightly and looked at Anson's expression condescendingly, naturally showing a sense of superiority that "you should feel honored".
"I think we should be able to work together to win roles and perform together. Why not cultivate a tacit understanding now? This is a date."
Superiority is superior, but Kate looked at Anson's The eyes are still slightly different, a little appreciative, a little ambiguous and a little inquisitive, with a little bit of curiosity in between, those beautiful eyes are always looking at Anson.
There was no one else in sight -
From inside the play to outside the play, the fourth wall was broken, but she still didn't come out.
Or to be more precise, Kate has never been involved in the play from beginning to end. She has been performing herself, and the emotional connection has been completed.
True and false, false and true, hard to tell.
In Kate's eyes, she saw Peter Parker and Anson Wood, but she couldn't tell whether she was Mary Jane or Kate.
Anson:?
Looked left and right, "Are you talking to me?"
Kate:...
Her expression visibly stiffened, and Kate was almost about to get angry and turn around to leave. , but she still controlled herself, "Is there anyone else here?"
Actually, what Kate wanted to say was, I'm looking at you, right?
However, something was wrong with the words.
Anson's face was full of astonishment, he blinked his eyes, slowly turned his head to look at the other people next to him, and asked hesitantly, "Can't you see their existence? Or am I the only one who can see it like this? Multiple people?”
So… ghost?
Everyone was stunned, not understanding what Ansen meant for a moment.
James leaned over quietly and said in a breathy voice, "You can see the dead."
This is a variation of the classic line "I can see the dead" in "The Sixth Sense". Paired with Anson's frightened and panicked expression, "Saturday Night Live" immediately hits your face.
Haha!
Others can no longer control themselves.
Even Alyssa, who was immersed in her own thoughts, couldn't help laughing.
Hahaha!
The atmosphere is extremely noisy.
Kate's cheeks were slightly red, "You!" She couldn't believe how she was treated, and a bunch of ugly and dirty words rushed to her lips, but she noticed everyone present, the last bit of maintaining her image. The rationality stopped and he controlled himself, stamped his feet hard, turned around and left quickly.
Took two steps away, still unwilling to give in, turned around and shouted to Anson, "I don't like you." After taking two more steps, he repeated again depressingly, "No, not at all."
The figure is fading away.
James came over quietly, "It seems that someone has a crush on someone." Anson didn't think so. Obviously, Kate was just not used to being rejected, because she had always been sought after by everyone. When a person suddenly meets someone who is not interested in her, she will inevitably be competitive.
Just like "Meteor Garden".
However, he is not Shancai, and Kate is not Daomingsi.
"What, envy?" Anson did not refute, but teased back.
James is a living treasure, making a heart-warming gesture, "Oh, envy, envy to the point of heartbreak. Anson, dear Anson, save me."
Seeing James performing a one-man show there, Anson ignored him and inadvertently saw Alyssa. Alyssa's eyes shrank and she hesitated to speak. Anson looked over calmly and asked with his eyes.
Alyssa mustered up her courage and said, "Thank you. It just gave me confidence inside. Although I feel that my performance is average, I am still too nervous after all..."
As she spoke, The voice gradually became quieter, revealing a little sadness.
Maybe I am still too eager to seize the opportunity, but I miss the opportunity because of my own urgency. The loss and sadness are beyond words.
Anson knows.
Alyssa is very beautiful, with a delicate but sexy beauty, but her acting career has never been able to open up. Later, her most well-known work should be the TV series "The Doll Agent", and there are not many big screen opportunities.
Now that they are in close contact, Anson feels that maybe Alyssa still lacks some confidence——
It is hard to imagine that an actor as beautiful as Alyssa still lacks confidence, but seriously Come to think of it, it doesn't seem surprising in Hollywood.
"To tell you a secret, I am equally nervous." Anson showed a smile.
Alyssa was stunned, not believing it at all.
Anson nodded in affirmation, "It's just that I hide it better. I think maybe Hollywood is a beauty contest to see who can hide their true emotions better. It's scary but not that scary."
Poof.
Alyssa was amused by Anson's teasing words, and her eyebrows relaxed completely.
Alyssa thought that maybe they could go to the bar for a drink and she could ask about her audition experience; but thinking of Kate just now, her words couldn't help but pause on the tip of her tongue.
In this short moment, James’ words came through.
"The audition is finally over. Let's have a drink tonight?"
"Of course. From your tone, it seems like you've already inquired about the bar?"
"Hey, I've been patient for a long time. This week I didn’t drink, just to prepare for today.”
“I didn’t drink for a week?”
“Ha, ha, drinking at home doesn’t count, I didn’t go to the bar for a week.” br>
Back and forth, chatting and laughing.
Alyssa could only swallow her words and carefully conceal her disappointment.
Back in the reception room, the actors met with their agents respectively. After a brief exchange, they dispersed. Anson and James headed to the underground parking lot.
Unexpectedly, the car James rented in New York broke down just three blocks away, and it seemed that the engine stalled.
James reluctantly called for a tow truck and discussed taking a taxi to the bar, and then a dark blue Mini Cooper parked next to it.
"Hey gentlemen, need a little help?"
First update.
