Chapter 254 Super luxurious lineup [Happy May Day everyone! 】
No one likes British winter, not even the British themselves.
The cold and humid air brought by the North Atlantic makes London feel like it is being washed by water every day, with no dry place to be found.
Goshen Standa had to get up because he had to work, and if he didn't work, he would have no money.
He was mumbling, and his head was messy... well, not messy, because there wasn't much.
When I came to the bathroom, I still didn't open my eyes. Even though I was covered in goosebumps from the cold, luckily I had muscles and could still resist.
He reached out and turned on the water heater. In such cold weather, a hot bath might bring good luck to the day.
“Oh, fuck!!!!!”
Standa hurriedly turned off the water heater, grabbed a towel that was not too clean, and wiped it hard.
Although it is called a water heater, there is not a drop of hot water in it. Apart from keeping him awake completely, it cannot provide him with warmth.
There was no hope for a hot bath, so I could only wash my face hastily and put on a set of relatively clean clothes that I finally found.
Standa is getting ready to go out, today is another busy day.
Open the door and step forward. As fast as you go, you will come back as fast as you go.
There is a mountain of meat blocking the door, which is full of elasticity.
A middle-aged woman with heavy makeup looked at classmate Standa who fell to the ground with disgust.
"Dear Jason, it's time for you to pay your rent."
Standa didn't care about his sore butt and looked over in disbelief.
"Jennifer, if your diligence in collecting rent is used in maintaining electrical appliances, I believe I will be happy to pay you rent."
The fat woman was very unhappy.
"Just because you don't pay the rent happily, that's why I don't bother to repair the appliances. Stop talking nonsense, give me this month's rent and last month's rent together."
Standa's eyes rolled around, extremely panicked.
"Don't worry, I will give it to you soon."
The fat woman has recognized his true face.
"Now."
Standa spoke plausibly.
"Jennifer, we can't just focus on the present, we must also focus on the future."
The fat woman put her hands on her hips and looked extremely fierce.
"You have money to live on first, and then we'll talk about it now."
Standa argued hard.
"Don't worry, I have a job and a career. I won't owe you rent."
The fat woman doesn't want to listen to his nonsense.
"Give me money."
Can Standa give me money?
cannot.
Because he has no money.
So he and his poor luggage appeared on the cold streets and became real homeless people.
The homeless classmate Standa had a sad face, thought for a long time, and finally raised his hand to hail a taxi.
An hour later, someone joined him in frowning.
"Damn it, Jason, why did you come to me?"
A man who was about the same grade as Standa and had the same untidy hair style roared angrily because Standa had disturbed his life.
Standa stayed on the sofa, as if he had regarded this place as his new home.
"Guy, you can't be so heartless. I work for you now, and you have to be responsible for my life."
"Shut up! I'm just your director, not your parent, let alone your guardian. Why should I be responsible for your life?"
The man waved his arms angrily and pointed at his surroundings.
"Look, can I take care of you here?"
A room of more than 20 square meters was equipped with a bed, a set of sofas and a simple wardrobe, and then there was nothing else.
It’s hard to believe that this is actually the residence of great director Guy Ritchie.
Of course, he is not a big director yet and is as poor as Stander.
But even so, Standa is the only person he can think of taking refuge with.
Thinking about two grown men living together in such a small place and even sleeping on the same bed, Standa couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body.
"Then can you pay me my salary first?"
"Don't even think about it!"
Guy Ritchie was furious and refused to agree.
The fact is, he didn't have any money to pay Standa.
At the beginning of this year, he used his savings to shoot a short film called "The Hard Case".
This short film attracted the attention of the wife of British singer Sting, who decided to invest in the filming, so Guy Ritchie had the funds to film "Two Smoking Barrels".
But obviously, this investment is very precious, and every penny must be spent wisely.
Now that the filming is still in preparation, Standa wants to get paid first, and Guy Ritchie would never agree to it even if he died.
Seeing Guy Ritchie being so heartless, Standa was also angry.
He was kicked out by his landlord and was living on the street, even having trouble eating. This was already very unlucky, but as a result, his employer was not even willing to pay him the salary, which was intolerable.
Seeing Standa about to go berserk, Guy Ritchie suddenly woke up.
Although his hair is not messy, it is obvious that the gap between him and Standa is a bit obvious in terms of combat effectiveness.
In order to avoid being beaten, he quickly took action.
"Jason, although I can't pay you the salary first. But there is a good job here that I can introduce to you, and the employer is very generous and is prepared to pay you a salary of 150,000 US dollars."
Money is indeed a good thing, and Standa immediately calmed down.
"Is there really such a good thing?"
In order to get out of trouble, Guy Ritchie acted very efficiently and took out a fax and handed it over.
"This is an invitation from the United States, but the employer is from China. The other party hopes to invite you to film in China and is willing to pay you a salary of US$150,000."
"China?"
Student Standa was a little confused and couldn't help but wonder where China is?
Although I always felt that that place seemed to have a lot to do with me, I just couldn't figure it out for a while.
"Yes, it's an invitation from China. My American friends checked it for me. It's a very powerful company in China, and the film to be shot this time has received state support. You seem to have a lot of roles in it.
, I think you can try it."
After a pause, Guy Ritchie decided to commit murder.
"You have nowhere to go anyway, making some money is not a bad thing."
The future Hollywood superstar doesn't have any stubbornness, mainly because the $150,000 is too attractive.
"Then...shall I try?"
Two days later, Standa showed up in Los Angeles.
Although I am tired from the journey, I am in good spirits. After all, anything that can make money makes people feel good.
He organized himself carefully, showed his best image, and arrived at the agreed place.
He has been to this place before. It is right next to the Screen Actors Guild. Producers and directors often interview actors here.
When Stan arrived, he found that there were already many people waiting here. There were men and women, and without exception, they all had the temperament of actors.
When they saw him coming, everyone's eyes were cautious at first. But after seeing his appearance clearly, they became very kind.
"Hello, my name is Keira Knightley, I'm from England."
A very beautiful girl stretched out her hand to him, confident and sunny.
Hearing that he was British, Standa felt warm to him.
"Hello, my name is Jason Statham, and I'm also from the UK."
Opposite me, a very handsome man also introduced himself.
"My name is Craig Parker and I'm from New Zealand."
Another person with less messy hair than Standa said: "My name is Vin Diesel, and I am an actor."
This remark made the other person laugh.
"My name is Paul Walker and I am also an actor."
Everyone present burst into laughter and the atmosphere was very good.
They are all actors struggling at the bottom of Hollywood, and every opportunity to star is precious.
Everyone's laughter puzzled a little girl in the crowd who was accompanied by her mother. She also introduced herself loudly, although her voice was covered up by the laughter.
"My...my name is Gal Gadot, and I'm here for an interview too."
When Xiao Qian walked in, he saw such a cheerful atmosphere.
"Hello everyone, my name is Xiao Qian, you can also call me Lance. I am the one who invited you. I am very happy that you can come."
The laughter stopped.
Everyone looked surprised, as if they thought it was a joke.
Xiao Qian knew that they would be like this, so he was not surprised and walked to his own seat.
He looked at the faces of these people one by one, and the more he looked at them, the happier he became.
Jason Statham, Keira Knightley, Vin Diesel, Craig Parker, Paul Walker, plus Gal Gadot who is younger than me...
This lineup actually appeared in "The Opium War", and the total salary was only US$750,000.
I don’t know how movie fans will feel after knowing this situation a few years from now.
