Chapter Seventeen: Meghan Hart

Hollywood, the world's most famous film and television city, has thousands of young men and girls from all over the United States every day, looking for an opportunity with their dreams. Meghan Hart is also one of them.

After coming to Hollywood, Meghan signed up for an intermediary company specializing in acting as an extra-professional business, but he never got the opportunity to participate in Hollywood movies, only auditions for roles with scraps, and never succeeded.

Later she realized that she was deceived by some agency bag companies, which was a must-learn lesson specifically for young birds who just came to Hollywood like them.

Going back to Kentucky? Meghan had never had such an idea in his mind, but he was still supported by the unyielding little flame in his heart. I want to become famous and I want to become a big star.

Meghan spent $500 to terminate the contract with the agency and registered his personal information again at the Hollywood Actors Union. Although he had to pay a certain annual fee, he could receive artist announcements from the Actors Guild official every day.

After coming to Hollywood for about half a year, she finally got a chance to perform, although she was just a passerby role in a TV series and had no lines, which made her extremely excited.

Today is Meghan Hart's 43rd audition. Although she was deceived at the agency, she honed her casting experience. After the fat director hinted that she had no response, she gave her news to go back and waited for it, and Meghan could face it calmly. She had signed up for the Starlight Performance Training School and was also receiving professional training. She believed that she, who was only 19 years old, would definitely succeed in the future.

When he came back at twelve o'clock noon and didn't even have lunch, Meghan hurried to work at McDonald's store where he worked.

"Megan, how about the morning audition?" The question was White Brown, also a Texas boy with a dream, looked pretty sunny and handsome, but if he hadn't often swung his extremely handsome buttocks towards the male and female casting director, Megan wouldn't mind having a dewy relationship with him.

"Thank you, I'll wait for the news." They have no full-time agents, they all register at the American Actors Union, and then see the information on the role announcements pushed by the official Twitter of the Actors Union. Each character has countless newcomers to register.

In Hollywood, newcomers may be more difficult than small actors in third, fourth and fifth tiers. First of all, there are more people, and the competition is greater. Secondly, there is no experience, and the crew rarely considers it. However, if the crew does not give them a chance, they will never have experience. This is like a vicious cycle. Despite this, Meghan is gritting her teeth and persevering. After all, she is only 19 years old, and she is still young and has a chance.

Originally, Meghan was in the morning class, and he had already changed shifts with Susan for this drama. If he was late in the afternoon, he would probably lose the job.

Megan dares not and cannot lose this job now, because the cost of living in Los Angeles is too high, and the registration fee for the Starlight Performing Arts School in Los Angeles emptied all her savings. She worked two jobs a day, worked at McDonald's for half a day during the day, went to class or crew interviews, and then went to the "Sea Biscuit" bar at night until twelve o'clock, so she could pay the high rent and her three-day acting training fee per week.

There were also some vague agents who were wandering and malicious. Looking at Meghan Hart with a beautiful face and a plump figure, she tried to trick her into filming the San Fernando Valley, but she was alert to avoid it.

Although he was exhausted every day, think about Jim Carrey also worked as a cleaner, Madonna as a fast food restaurant salesperson, Brad Pitt also played McDonald's promotional mascot, and even Johnny Depp had been a pen telephone promoter, Meghan Hart kept using such words to cheer himself up and make himself full of fighting spirit.

Receiving Chen Fang's call was an unexpected thing for her. Although her grandfather was a winemaker in Chen Fang's winery, Meghan never thought that he would have any interaction with him. A billionaire and a country girl meet for no more than ten days a year. Maybe he was just entrusted by his grandfather and brought a gift, but maybe it was just a trick for him.

Alas, this time I must have been rude. Megan thought about it, but there was no way, so he had to go and apologize tomorrow morning, hoping that he would not care.

At 5:30, Meghan had to go to the bar when McDonald's get off work. Although it was a bar, it was different from an entertainment bar. The "Sea Biscuit" bar was basically pure drinks and simple meals. There was no acting stage. There was only a coin-operated record jukebox older than Meghan, where she was singing some old songs. Old bars have the benefits of an old bar. Some old customers would be relatively familiar with people here for a long time, which would reduce the number of right and wrong.

The owner Charlie is a very traditional Kentucky man who loves horse racing and bourbon that all Kentucky people like, which is also the origin of the bar name.

Meghan usually uses the story of "Sea Biscuits" to motivate herself, hoping to find her own glory. Meghan is also glad that her boss is from Kentucky. In Los Angeles, Kentucky people are used to hang out together. After knowing that Meghan is also a fellow villager, even though she is under 21 years old, the boss still gave her a job as a waiter.

The bar is not big, the owner is in charge of the bar area, Meghan and another waiter Anne are in charge of the seats, and the passage from the bar to the door is the dividing line on one side.

The crisp sound of an old wooden door hitting the copper bell from the bar gate, and customers came again. Seeing Anne greeting the guests, Megan hurriedly put down the tray in her hand and went forward.

"Welcome! Please!" Under the dim backlight, you can vaguely tell that there are two men and one woman, three Asians. There are many Asian tourists in Hollywood now, and every day there are many Asian tourists coming to experience the nightlife of the world's film and television capital.

"Help find a bigger card bag, and there are still several friends who are coming later." One of the men ordered Megan.

Meghan led the way and took it to a large card bag position near the inner wall of the bar, and arranged a few people to sit down. Under the bright lights of the store, Meghan realized that it was actually in a dim light.

"Ah, Mr. Chen, hello!" Megan said hello to Chen Fang in surprise, then looked at Qin Mohan sitting opposite him, and hurriedly greeted: "Hello Miss Qin."

"Oh, Megan!" Qin Mohan said in surprise: "You changed the color of your hair, and I can't recognize you." In Qin Mohan's memory, Megan was full of blonde hair, shining in the sun, and now Megan's hair color has changed to brown, dressed in a waiter outfit. She looks much more steady, which is very different from the bright girl before. Maybe this is life.

Chen Fang said to Meghan: "Hi, Meghan, I don't know you are working here, and the gift Jack brought you is still in the hotel."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen." Megan said gratefully: "I was working in the afternoon and I really couldn't get out. If you are convenient, I can go directly to the hotel you are staying at tomorrow morning to pick it up. What do you want to drink?"

"Okay. Just give me a cup of whiskey." Chen Fang nodded, and then said to Qin Mohan: "What are you drinking?"

Qin Mohan said to Megan: "Please help me with a slightly lower drink, thank you."

"You'll be later." Megan asked Cheng Yue about his needs again, and then returned to the bar to arrange for them.

Megan recommended a glass of crebsp; (cream-flavored sweet wine) to Qin Mohan. According to Kentucky's habit, Chen put a glass of 101proof wild turkey whiskey pure drink, plus a plate of snacks. Cheng Yue asked for a bottle of beer and sat at a single table not far from the two of them, guarding him at any time.

Seeing Megan busy greeting other guests, Qin Mohan whispered to Chen Fang: "I saw that Megan's hair color has changed to brown. I heard that Hollywood has discrimination similar to hair color. Is it true?"

Chen Fang nodded: "Hollywood has some natural discrimination against blondes. You can clearly see in Hollywood movies that blondes are all vases, beautiful and brainless characters, and even horror movies are the kind of screaming and exposing their targets. Even Oscar winners like Charlize Theron often dye their hair color into other colors."

Seeing Megan busy not far away, Qin Mohan couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that she really wants to be an actress. She expressed her yearning when she was on the farm last time. Now she has dyed her hair color, probably because she wants to succeed through her own efforts."

"For the sake of Old Jack, let's help her." Chen Fang thought of saying goodbye to Old Jack as the other party was trying to speak but stopped, and knew that the other party wanted to ask him for his request, but he didn't know how to express it. So he hoped that he could help with Meghan when he asked him to bring gifts.

"Are you talking about the party the day after tomorrow?" Qin Mohan said in surprise.

"Well, if you introduce her to people in the circle, it depends on her whether she can succeed in the end." Chen Fang nodded.

"Fast and Furious 7" has been completed later. Due to the time difference, Wild Fox Company is preparing to hold a global premiere in Shanghai, about twelve hours earlier than the United States.

A month ago, Chen Fang arranged for Linda to hold this party. In addition to inviting relevant starring actors of this film, he also invited many bigwigs in the circle to attend. He also prepared to have a good chat with Jeff Hill of Universal Pictures, and there should be a lot of cooperation between the two parties in the future.

The invitation letter has been sent. After Lin arrives tomorrow, she can prepare for the convening. At that time, she will take Meghan to come and introduce a few people in the circle to her to know. Whether she can get the opportunity depends on her own luck.
