Chapter 5 Audition

Compared to London, Los Angeles, where he has lived for seven years, is even more unfamiliar to Ryan. After replacing some furniture, the apartment that year became his and Nicole's home again. It was Nicole, who had a lot of funds on hand, but it was hard to find a suitable house, not to mention that Nicole only wanted to live in Beverly Hills.

  "Damn it, it's so troublesome for women to change clothes!"

  As half an hour passed like this, Ryan couldn't help but muttered as he waited on the sofa in the living room.

  Sitting opposite, Kingsley just smiled. The two had signed a formal contract. After half a month of getting along, she gradually understood something about Ryan. She knew that he was both smart and precocious, and she could not treat him as a human being at all. When the child looks at it, sometimes she even feels like she is having a conversation with a peer.

  Ryan looked at the clock on the wall, feeling a little bored. He turned to look at the agent, "Pat, have you received any feedback on the script yet?" "

  Don't worry, Ryan, I handed over the script myself." Weinstein, I have some relationship with the two brothers. Whether it is adopted or abandoned, they will notify me as soon as possible."

  Kingsley read the script carefully. Although she is an amateur at screenwriting, she is a A good story can always arouse people's resonance. In her opinion, unless the Weinstein brothers have water in their heads, they will definitely see the value of this script.

  Sighing, Ryan understood that he was a little anxious, but Kingsley's wide range of connections really impressed him.

  In this case, Ryan is happy to leave the matter to her. As for Nicole, let's just be her movie star.

  "Ryan." Nicole's voice came from another room, "Why is my shoe cabinet locked? Have you seen the key?" "No.

  " Ryan subconsciously touched the yellow key in his pocket. Bronze Key, deny it.

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

  "Really? Why don't I remember."

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

  After putting on the high heels, Nicole became even taller, and a faint smile appeared on Ryan's lips. Those shoes were the ones he had carefully chosen to put in, hoping they would come in handy.

  The audition took place at Paramount Studios. Just in case, Ryan used his child's privileges and got into the car. Faced with Nicole's questioning, he plausibly defended, "I just wanted to see the audition." What's it like? Besides, the film company doesn't stipulate that other than agents, you can't bring anyone else to the audition."

  Sitting in the back seat of the moving car, Nicole always felt that Ryan was planning something. In any case, the two of them were After living together for such a long time, she always had a keen intuition about some of his behaviors, but after thinking about it, she didn't notice anything wrong.

  On the bench outside the audition room, the three of them were waiting quietly. Ryan overheard the discussion of several staff members, and then discovered that Tom Cruise was actually the screenwriter of this movie. I guess so, this kind of cool and cool thing Works that fully highlight the personal charm of idols are not exactly Liangtang's consistent style, aren't they?

  Ryan shook his head. Because she had been acting in stage plays in London for more than a year, Nicole's acting skills were much better than at the same time in her previous life. If she still got the heroine of this movie, she could open up a career in Hollywood. But the title of vase is likely to be confirmed again, which is not a good thing. She is too beautiful to begin with. If she is labeled with such a label again, she will inevitably not follow the same path as in her previous life.

  "Ryan, wait here safely with Pat, don't cause trouble!" Nicole did not forget to give her instructions before entering the audition room. Obviously, in the past two years, Ryan has made a lot of messes. Things come up.

  "Can't I go in and have a look?" Ryan blinked 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 it from the glamorous girl who was very familiar with him, Nicole warned directly, "Do you want me to send you to boarding school?"

  Ryan immediately calmed down, but started to mutter in his heart, okay, now you are My guardian, I won't argue with you. After I turn sixteen, we will slowly settle the accounts one by one.

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

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

  Even though Tom is much taller than his actual height of only 5 feet 7 inches by wearing in-shoes, he is at least five inches shorter than Nicole who is wearing high heels.

  As long as he catches Nicole looking down at Mr. Cruise when she turns to speak, Ryan will be secretly happy that the pair of high heels he specially selected was not in vain.

  However, this scene that he carefully planned was destined to become his own joke. Tom didn't seem to mind Nicole's height. When he walked up to Ryan and his agent, he issued an invitation, "Nicole, no." If you mind, can I invite you to dinner?"

  Mind! I mind very much! Ryan's eyes widened and he stared straight at Tom Cruise. If eyes could kill, this suave little boy would probably be riddled with holes.

  "It's a great honor!" No matter in her past life or in this life, Nicole is a person who is good at dancing. Naturally, she will not refuse. After thanking her, she originally wanted to introduce the two people in front of her. Who knows, Mr. Cruz turned a blind eye and said directly , "There is a very unique restaurant in Beverly Hills. How about we go there?"

  "No!"

  Before Nicole could answer, Ryan jumped down from the bench, holding his chest with one hand and pinching his chin with the other, squinting. Looking at Tom Cruise, he deliberately circled around him and Nicole, and suddenly said to Nicole, "Mom, you said you would take me to eat Chinese food tonight."

  Mom? Nicole's eyes suddenly widened, but she knew Ryan after all, and she immediately understood that this guy was trying to play tricks on others again.

  Tom Cruise was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the floor. He never thought that this Australian girl who amazed him would have such a big son.

  "Ryan, where's your etiquette and upbringing?" Although she didn't understand the reason for not wearing a bed for three days, Nicole knew that he couldn't look down on him. After scolding him, she explained to Tom, "This It's Ryan Jenkins, my brother, he's a little too naughty, Tommy, don't mind."

  Then the female manager was introduced to Tom Cruise.

  Facing Ryan was a bit better, but when facing Ms. Kingsley, Tom was very arrogant and proud like a peacock spreading its wings. This is probably the aura of a big star.

  "Nice to meet you, Mr. Tom Cruise."

  Maybe Tom Cruise doesn't know that there is a trick called face-changing in China, but looking at Ryan's current performance, you can get a glimpse of the truth.

  Ryan knew that he was a soft-spoken person, and unless he cheated, it would be difficult to influence Nicole's opinion on a small matter such as dining. He simply took out the signature book and pen from his backpack like a magic trick, and handed them over, "It can satisfy a person." Is it your little fan's wish?"

  "Of course." Tom wrote quickly on the notebook, "Ryan, I wish your life will always be filled with sunshine and happiness!"

  As long as you don't take away my Nicole, There will always be sunshine and happiness in my life! This was Ryan's only thought as he put away his autograph book.

  The Bentley sports car drove into the area of ​​Beverly Hills at high speed. Sitting in the front row were Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. The handsome man and the beautiful woman looked like they were made for each other.

  But Ryan looked over from the back row and felt that the distance between the two people was as far as Sydney to Los Angeles. If he stretched out his hand again, he would definitely be able to create a Maria under the calm sea. Na big trench.

  What Ryan didn't expect was that Tom seemed to take his words seriously and actually took them to a Chinese restaurant. Looking at the mrchow on the sign, Ryan muttered in Chinese that it turned out to be Mr. Zhou's restaurant. Don't know if the taste is authentic or not.

  After entering the restaurant, unlike Ryan's imagination, the restaurant was decorated in a Western style. Tom Cruise is a big star after all. The waiter directly led the group of them to a quiet partition. After a few people sat down, they served menu.

  Ryan sat next to Nicole and looked at the waiter calmly. He had dark 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. He couldn't tell. I am still an international student working here. This year, many college students have come to the United States from the other side.

  "Ryan, what do you want to eat?"

  The person who asked was Tom Cruise. Although Ryan's behavior was a bit out of control when they first met, later he showed good etiquette and upbringing in both his speech and behavior. He looks a little thin, and it's hard not to feel good about him.

  It's a pity that Tom Cruise won't understand that people like Ryan are different.

  "Can I order it myself?" Ryan blinked his bright eyes. He looked like a very cute boy no matter what. Tom Cruise laughed directly, "Of course. But, Ryan, do you know Chinese food?" "

  Actually, Ryan is learning Chinese culture and has some understanding of Eastern food and customs." It seems that the knowledge Ryan has mastered is Nicole's greatest pride.

  Tom Cruise just smiled and handed over the menu. Ryan glanced at the menu which was full of English. Probably because of the translation, the names of most dishes were difficult for him to understand. I had no choice but to scratch my head, look at the Chinese waiter, and ask, "Is there a Chinese menu?"

  "Chinese...Chinese?"

  Ryan asked in slightly stilted Mandarin, which the waiter could obviously understand. , but this relatively fluent Mandarin was spoken from the mouth of a blond and blue-eyed kid, which made him stunned for a moment unconsciously.

  "Sorry, we don't have a Chinese menu."

  Just as Ryan guessed, the waiter was really an international student. While cursing the hell in his heart, he was apologizing in his mouth.

  "Okay then." Ryan just thought for a moment and then revealed a list of hometown dishes, "Scallion-fried sea cucumber, Texas braised chicken, nine-turn large intestine, sweet and sour carp and Kung Pao chicken." The waiter could

  n't help but There were black lines all over his head. He didn't expect that this little ghost guy was so familiar with domestic cuisines. He had never tasted some of the names mentioned.

  Of course, Texas braised chicken, nine-turn large intestine and sweet and sour carp were not available. After the waiter explained a few words, Ryan didn't want to embarrass anyone, so he asked Nicole for her opinion and ordered spinach and boiled prawns for the two of them. , Huadiao Fugui Chicken, crab roe steamed buns, and a separate order of boiled pork slices.

  Since it was Chinese and Western food, after Tom ordered his meal, Ryan specifically ordered in Chinese, "My dishes must be made in authentic Chinese ways. Also, the boiled pork slices must be cooked with more chili pepper and red oil. You must eat it." The kind that can make you sweat

  after one bite." The waiter carefully recorded Ryan's request, but turned around and rolled his eyes. Damn it, you little devil, you're not afraid of being spicy to death. ?
