The first light of dawn in 1996 fell on the North American continent. The warm golden light made the morning colder and softer. The lower city of Los Angeles also ushered in the first day of the New Year in the morning mist.

Standing in the lower city, the Los Angeles Grand Theater in the city has been idle for a long time. Since the grand premiere of "Life and Death Hour" was held here, the theater that has accompanied the city of Angels for half a century has temporarily announced it will be suspended.

Although the equipment is too old, the main reason is that the city's crowds are gradually leaving this area and heading towards Hollywood Avenue, Beverly Hills and other places. The attendance rate of the Los Angeles Grand Theater has been declining, and now it is unable to maintain basic operations, so it is forced to suspend use.

However, the city government has re-planned the place, and it is likely to be used as a fixed rehearsal venue for art museums or stage theater troupes in the future. Over the past year, the Los Angeles Grand Theater has been renovating intermittently to ensure that some places do not have safety hazards due to disrepair.

The once prosperous surrounding the Grand Theater in Los Angeles has gradually calmed down. In the 1930s and 1940s, the endless streams and traffic have now become yellowed images in memory, gradually disappearing into the minds of those born after the 1960s.

Recently, this place has been in a deserted state due to the suspension of the Grand Theater, and it is not even as lively as near the Poor Street. It is as quiet as the abandoned corner of the city. Many drug dealers are coveting this place and want to use it as a brand new trading place. This is the inevitable mark of urban development and change.

But today's Los Angeles Grand Theater looks unique. Under the bright sun, there are crowds of people. A dense crowd extends along the short street from the entrance of the Los Angeles Grand Theater. The trivial and hot conversation sounds spread from the street to the end of the street. It seems that every brick and stone on the street has become full of vitality. The light and excited excitement has made the entire Los Angeles Grand Theater revived and revitalized the tremendous vitality half a century ago.

The bustling crowd began to be crooked from the door but kept in order. The team quickly blocked the short street, and then winded around the side of the Los Angeles Grand Theater, eventually forming a closed rectangle, surrounding the entire building. But even so, the surging crowd continued to rush.

There were more than 20 uniformed personnel standing at the entrance of the Los Angeles Grand Theater. They were doing their best to maintain order, continuing to line up the people they felt later, starting from the gate, and isolating the crowd with unfolded iron railings to make the scene orderly as much as possible.

If someone looks down from the air, he will see the incredible scene like a vicious circle of wheat fields. Such a picture can only be seen at the audition site of the "American Idol (Ame Japanese Can.idol)" that was popular all over the world in the 21st century. The surging crowds of people are jaw-dropping, attracting almost all eyes.

The Los Angeles Theater, which had been silent for a long time, once again became the focus center, making the lower city area like a pool of stagnant water begin to boil.

Almost the whole of the United States knows that today's "Doomsday" will be cast in the Los Angeles Theater, choosing to play the role of Hugo's son in the movie. This opportunity is also considered a godsend opportunity. Not only can you get the opportunity to appear in commercial blockbusters, but you can also get the opportunity to shoot with Hugo. This is an irresistible temptation for anyone.

But even so, the grand occasion around the Los Angeles Theatre is still shocking. Since the crew required the roles of children from five to twelve, every child who came to audition was taken by a guardian, which doubled the crowd at the scene, or even doubled.

Looking around, at least two thousand people gathered around the Los Angeles Theater, and this was just the beginning. As time progressed, more and more people were gathering here from all corners of Los Angeles, from all corners of North America, and this also made the lower city of Los Angeles bloom like never before! Such a terrible scene was probably unexpected by even the Twentieth Century Fox.

This time, Twentieth Century Fox arranged the selection of the last character in "Apocalypse" at the Los Angeles Grand Theater, which can accommodate 2,000 people, and there was no lack of publicity and hype.

Originally, the male protagonist Steve and his girlfriend Jia Siming had a child in the "Doomsday" script, but this child was the child of Jia Siming and his ex-boyfriend. However, in order to focus more on Hugo, when 20th Century Fox submitted the final version, he changed the script again and set the child as the son of Steve and his ex-girlfriend.

In Hollywood, there are not many opportunities for child stars to perform. After all, roles suitable for children are limited, but everyone knows that once a child star can be created, it will be a real money tree. I won’t talk about the distant Xiulan Deng Bo, and the recent Macaulay Calkin is not far away.

So, for granted, the opportunity to cooperate directly with Hugo in the "apocalypse" became a hot bun, which easily caused a sensation in Hollywood! Twentieth Century Fox was looking forward to this result. They hoped to maximize the effect of Hugo's "20 million club" and strive to convert their efforts into more rewards before the movie box office came out.

However, even Twentieth Century Fox did not expect that under the powerful influence of the "20 million club", this audition would actually turn into such a grand situation, which became the third grand era at the end of the year beyond Brad's rise and Hugo founded the 20 million club.

What Twentieth Century Fox didn't expect was that just a few hours later, Columbia Pictures and the Innovative Artist Agency jointly announced that Kim Carrey would play the "Ace Commissioner" for a pay of 20 million yuan, pushing this topic to an even more incredible height. While allowing the "apocalypse" to bear greater box office pressure, it also attracted chain attention and instantly became the hottest ace project.

When Roland Emmerich arrived at the Los Angeles Grand Theater, he looked at the crowds in front of him and was stunned by the scene. Even if the car stopped, he did not reach out to open the car door. Roland's first reaction was that he had come to the wrong place, and he couldn't help but subconsciously asked, "Is this the Los Angeles Grand Theater?"

The driver sitting in the front seat was specially sent by 20th Century Fox for Roland. "You did not go wrong." The driver couldn't help but smile. Looking at the lively scene, his words couldn't help but relax. "The company had expected that the scene would be very lively. Today, he hired an additional twenty security guards to maintain order. You must go in quickly. If you slow down a little, you probably won't be able to go in." But 20th Century Fox is not sure now. Is the number of security guards they hired too few?

Roland nodded repeatedly, opened the car door and walked out of the car. Standing at the door and looked back at the entire blocked street. His sighs burst out involuntarily. He never knew that Los Angeles had such a prosperous area besides Beverly Hills. More importantly, the prosperity here today is even more exaggerated than Hollywood Avenue. The crowds of people filled every blank space in the street. The crowds of people everywhere were crowded, which almost made Roland mistakenly think that this was Rockefeller Square during the New Year's Eve last night.

The driver drove the car away, but he was struggling. The speed of leaving was like a snail, slowly breaking through the waves in the surging waves. Roland strongly suspected that all the children of the age of Hollywood had appeared today; a larger part of the crowd was those children who had no performance experience, who came to the audition with the idea of ​​trying it out or becoming famous overnight. It cannot be ruled out that the parents of fans who just hoped to see Hugo came to audition with their children, which created the grand occasion today.

Before this, Roland was actually very dissatisfied with the strength of the Fenjin Elite agency. After all, it is not easy for the screenwriter to modify the script significantly for the director. A medium-sized brokerage company like Fenjin Elite completely relies on Hugo's momentum to suppress others with momentum, and Hugo has never really appeared from beginning to end, which made Roland despise Hugo quite despise Hugo. Even though the circle has always had a high evaluation of Hugo, Roland could not leave a good impression.

But today I saw the sensational scene. Not only were countless children coming to audition, but there were at least twenty media reporters in sight. Now all the reporters are interviewing interviewers on both sides of the road. It can be imagined that "The Doomsday" has reached a peak before filming, and the movie will be even more lively when it is released.

This also made Roland feel endlessly motivated to film the movie. He was determined to create a box office giant. Now the surging crowd in front of him made Roland have ambitions to do something big deep in his heart. Even he himself did not notice it. The fist in his right hand couldn't help but clenched, and even trembled slightly because he was too excited.

From this perspective, Hugo is actually the actor who meets Roland's expectations most. His previous compromises and grievances are not worth mentioning in the noise in front of him. But Roland must not be a little worried about whether Hugo will be as dedicated as a legend after he actually enters the crew, and whether he will be as easy or difficult as a legend.

Looking back, there were still people rushing here one after another. Roland quickly packed up his thoughts and walked into the Los Angeles Grand Theater. After showing his "apocalypse" crew work permit to the guards at the door, Roland entered the theater.
