Chapter 5 Auditions

Compared with London, Los Angeles, where he had lived for seven years, was even more unfamiliar to Ryan. After changing some furniture, the apartment became his and Nicole's home again. It's Nicole, who has a lot of money on hand, but it's not easy to find a suitable house, not to mention Nicole's wholeheartedly thinking about living in Beverly Hills.

Damn it, it's such a hassle for women to change clothes!

Seeing that half an hour has passed like this, the boy was waiting on the sofa in the living room and couldn't help muttering.

Jinsili sat opposite and just smiled. The two had signed a formal contract. After getting along for half a month, she gradually understood some of the boy's situation. She knew that he was smart and precocious, and could not treat him as a child at all. See, even sometimes she felt like she was having a conversation with a peer.

Ryan looked at the wall clock on the wall. He was really bored. He turned to look at the manager, Pat, is there any news about the script?

Rest assured, Ryan, I handed the script to Harvey Weinstein myself. I have some relationship with those two brothers. Whether it is adopted or abandoned, they will notify me as soon as possible.

Kingsley has read the script carefully. Although she is a layman for the screenwriter, a good story can always resonate with people. In her opinion, unless the Weinstein brothers have water in their heads, they will definitely see this script. of value.

With a sigh, the boy understood that he was in a hurry, but Jinsili's extensive network of connections really made him impress him.

In this case, Ryan is also happy to leave things to her to handle. As for Nicole, let's be her actress in peace.

Ryan. Nicole's voice came from another room, Why is my shoe cabinet locked? Did you see the key?

No. The boy subconsciously touched the brass key in his pocket and denied it.

Damn! Do you want me to audition in slippers? Nicole's angry voice came from the room again. Ryan rolled his eyes and said loudly, Nicole, you are not in the shoe cabinet at the door. Did you buy new shoes yesterday?

Really? Why can't I remember.

Nicole put on light makeup, patted her head, walked out of the room, opened the shoe cabinet in the entrance, and took out a pair of high-heeled shoes. The heels were four inches high. They were long and pointed, but they were Nicole's favorite. .

After putting on the high heels, Nicole became taller, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of the boy's mouth. He chose the pair of shoes to put them in, I hope they can come in handy.

The audition took place at Paramount. Just in case, Ryan used his child's privilege, got into the car, and faced Nicole's questioning, he justified, I just want to see the audition. What's it like, besides, the film company has not stipulated that apart from the agent, you can't bring anyone else to audition.

Sitting in the back seat of a moving car, Nicole always felt that the boy was planning something. In any case, the two had lived together for such a long time. She always had a keen intuition about some of his actions, but she thought about it. , didn't notice anything wrong.

On the bench outside the audition room, the three of them waited quietly. Ryan overheard the discussions of several staff members, and only then did he realize that Tommy was the screenwriter of this movie. Isn't it the usual style of Liangtang?

The boy shook his head, because he had acted in a stage play in London for more than a year,

Nicole's acting skills are better than the same period in her previous life. If she still wins the heroine of this movie, although she can open up a situation in Hollywood, the title of Vase is likely to be confirmed again, which is not a good thing. She was already too beautiful, and if she was put on such a hat again, she would inevitably not follow the old path of her previous life.

Ryan, wait here with Pat safely, don't make trouble! Nicole didn't forget to instruct before entering the audition room. Obviously, in the past two years, the boy has made a lot of messes. Come.

Can't I go in and take a look? Ryan blinked his eyes and tried to pretend to be innocent. Not to mention, after so many years of acting, he completely deceived the Paramount staff, but Unable to hide the glamorous girl who was very familiar with him, Nicole directly warned, Do you want me to send you to boarding school?

The boy immediately calmed down, but he just started to mutter in his heart, well, now you are my guardian, I don't care about you, and when I'm sixteen, let's slowly settle the account.

After being stunned for a while, Ryan simply chatted with Jinsley. The content of the topic was naturally inseparable from the Hollywood Vanity Fair. It was not until more than 40 minutes later that Nicole came out of the audition room, but when she entered, she was One person, when he came out, became two people.

As for the extra person, Ryan really doesn't want to see it, it's Tom Cruise!

Although Tom was wearing the inner-height shoes, he was a lot taller than he was actually five feet seven inches tall, but he was at least five inches shorter than Nicole, who was wearing high heels.

As long as Nicole turned her head to speak and looked down at Mr. Cruise's actions, the boy would be overjoyed, not wasting the pair of high heels he had specially chosen.

However, this scene he carefully planned was destined to be his own laughing stock. Tom didn't seem to mind Nicole's height. When he walked up to Ryan and his manager, he sent an invitation, Nicole, no. May I invite you to dinner if you mind?

mind! I'm very interested! Ryan's eyes widened, staring straight at Brother Tom, if his eyes could kill, this suave and creamy little boy might have been riddled with holes.

It's a great honor! No matter in the past or this life, Nicole is a person with long sleeves and good dance, and naturally she will not refuse. After thanking, she originally wanted to introduce the two people in front of her. Who knows, Mr. Cruise turned a blind eye and said directly. , There's a very special restaurant in Beverly Hills, how about we go there?

not good!

Without waiting for Nicole to answer, Ryan jumped off the bench, folded his chest in one hand and pinched his chin, looked at Tom, deliberately circled around him and Nicole, and suddenly said to Nicole, Mom, you said you would take me to eat Chinese food in the evening.

Mother? Nicole's eyes suddenly widened, but she knew the boy after all, and she immediately realized that this guy was going to make fun of people again.

Brother Tom was so shocked that his chin almost fell to the floor. He never thought that this amazing Australian girl would have such a big son.

Ryan, what about your etiquette and upbringing? Although she didn't understand the reason for not being slapped for three days, Nicole knew that he couldn't take a good look. After reprimanding, she explained to Brother Tom, This is It's Ryan Jenkins, my brother, a little too naughty, Tommy, you don't mind.

Then she introduced the female broker to Tom Cruise.

Facing Ryan is better, but when facing Ms. Jinsili, Tom is full of air, proud like a peacock opening the screen, probably this is the aura of a big star.

Nice to meet you, Mr. Tom Cruise.

Maybe Tommy didn't know that there is a trick called face-changing in China, but looking at the boy's current performance, you can get a glimpse of the true meaning of it.

Ryan knew that he was a light-hearted person. Unless he was rude, it would be difficult to influence Nicole's opinion on such trivial matters as eating. He simply took out the autograph book and fountain pen from his backpack and handed it over like a trick. Is it the wish of a little fan?

Of course. Tommy quickly paddled on the notebook, Ryan, I wish your life will always be full of sunshine and happiness!

As long as you don't take my Nicole, there will always be sunshine and happiness in my life! It was the boy's only thought as he put away the autograph.

The Bentley sports car galloped all the way and drove into the range of Beverly Hills. Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman sitting in the front row, handsome men and beautiful women, are a natural pair.

But Ryan looked over from the back row, and in any case felt that the distance between the two was as far as Sydney to Los Angeles. If he stretched his hand in it again, he would definitely be able to create a maria under the calm sea. Take the Great Trench.

To Ryan's surprise, Brother Tom seemed to take his words seriously, and actually took them to a Chinese restaurant. Looking at MrChow on the sign, the boy muttered in Chinese, it turned out to be Mr. Zhou's restaurant, no. Know if the taste is authentic or not.

After entering the restaurant, it was different from what the boy imagined. The restaurant was decorated in a western style. Brother Tom was a big star after all. The waiter directly led them to a quiet partition. menu.

The boy sat next to Nicole and looked at the waiter calmly. He had black eyes, black hair and yellow skin. He should be a Chinese. Judging from his behavior and temperament, he was at most a first-generation immigrant. Among the foreign students working here, many college students have come to the United States from the other side this year.

Ryan, what do you want to eat?

It was Tom who asked the question. Although the boy's behavior was a bit eccentric when we first met, he showed good manners and upbringing in his speech and behavior. With his thin appearance, it was difficult for people not to dislike him. Feel good.

It's a pity that Tom Cruise won't understand that it's a boy who is duplicitous.

Can I order it myself? Ryan blinked his bright eyes, and he looked like a very cute boy. Brother Tom laughed, Of course. But, Ryan, do you know Chinese food?

In fact, Ryan is studying Chinese culture, and he has some understanding of eastern food and customs. It seems that the knowledge the boy has mastered is Nicole's greatest pride.

Tom Cruise just smiled and handed the menu to the boy. Ryan glanced at the menu full of English, probably because of the translation, the names of most of the dishes were difficult for him to understand , I had to scratch my head, looked at the Chinese waiter, and asked, Is there a Chinese menu?

Chinese...Chinese?

The boy's question was in a little bit of Mandarin, which the waiter could clearly understand, but it was still fluent in Mandarin, which came from the mouth of a blond kid, which made him stunned unconsciously for a moment.

Sorry, we don't have a Chinese menu.

As the boy guessed, the waiter was really an international student, and he was expressing apology while scolding hell in his heart.

Okay then. Ryan just thought about it for a moment, and then came up with a list of hometown dishes, Sea cucumber with spring onion, Dezhou braised chicken, Jiuzhuan large intestine, sweet and sour carp and Kung Pao chicken.

The waiter couldn't help but drop black lines all over his head. He didn't expect this kid to be so familiar with domestic cuisine, and some of the names he reported had never been eaten before.

Of course, the Dezhou Braised Chicken, Jiuzhuan Large Intestine and Sweet and Sour Carp are not available. After the waiter explained a few words, the boy did not want to embarrass others, so he asked Nicole's opinion and ordered spinach, boiled prawns, Huadiao Fugui Chicken, Crab Roe Xiao Long Bao, and a special order of boiled pork slices.

Since it is Chinese food and Western food, after Brother Ah Tang ordered the meal, Ryan specially instructed in Chinese, My dishes must be authentic Chinese cooking methods, and more chili peppers and red oil should be added to the boiled pork slices, so be sure to eat them. The kind that makes your head sweaty in one bite.

The waiter carefully recorded the boy's request, but after turning around, he rolled his eyes. Damn kid, aren't you afraid of being killed by chili peppers?
