"Don't be depressed, Ronald." Cameron patted Ronald on the shoulder. Kathryn Bigelow found him more interesting among the two directors, which made Cameron very proud.

"Huh? No, it's just that the casting for my new film didn't go well." Ronald replied. He talked about how he couldn't find a suitable female secondary villain for his new film "Working Girl".

"What kind of actor do you need?" Cameron and Bigelow both found it interesting. Ronald is famous for using unknown actors in his films, and there is no wrong casting for the main role in each movie. Now he is actually looking for

Can't find the right actor?

"I need an audience who will think of her as a strong, sophisticated woman as soon as they see her. It's best to be a famous female star." Ronald explained, and now both people on the other side understood.

In casting, whether the actor fits the role has a lot to do with the actor's reputation. If you use unknown actors, you can find the one with the most similar temperament. But this time Ronald needs a star that the audience is familiar with, so there is room for searching.

will be much smaller.

"You might as well try Sigourney Weaver." After listening to Ronald's request for the role of Catherine, Cameron recommended to Ronald the heroine of "Alien 2" directed by him.

"Huh? Sigourney Weaver?" Ronald didn't expect that Cameron would recommend a female officer in the Space Force. Do you think she can play the kind of rich woman who is sophisticated on the outside but superficial on the inside?

"Sigourney is a very malleable actor. You might as well take a look at her previous works." Cameron smiled but said nothing. This actor has played comedy farces (Ghostbusters) and serious themes (Age of Danger).

, a New York middle-class romantic comedy (Annie Hall) also acted in it.

"Then I'll ask my agent to find a copy." Ronald found it hard to imagine that an actress who prefers action movies could actually make Cameron think she could play a Wall Street elite. Sigourney must be an extraordinary one.

actor.

"Ah ha, she is indeed the director's favorite kind of actress." Ronald finally watched some of Sigourney's masterpieces in the small screening room of the Fox Building. She had played an official of the British Embassy,

She has also played the role of a New York chick. She is the kind of actress who is particularly good at capturing the outstanding characteristics of different characters. People can believe that she is the kind of person she plays.

And she has a quality that makes the camera love her more. Her expressions and movements in the camera can allow the audience to take part in the story from her perspective. This kind of actor is the favorite of directors of low-concept literary films. The plot is not intense and the plot is not intense.

You can use subtle expressions to attract the audience's attention.

Ronald immediately called casting director Julia Taylor and asked her to contact her agent to see if she was interested in auditioning.

…

"Hi, hello, Ronald. I received a call from Jim (Cameron). I didn't expect you to invite me." Sigourney Weaver came to the audition room with a smile on her face and greeted Ronald.

.

"I didn't expect that a female officer of the Space Force could grasp the yuppie temperament of Wall Street so well. Please have a seat."

Ronald looked at the bright red jacket and black trousers that the other party specially wore, and knew that Sigourney Weaver was very interested in his movie. The whole set of costumes looked expensive and high-quality, and the other party

I deliberately wore trousers, and my whole person showed the charm of a professional woman who is different from that of a female officer, but still represents a certain profession.

"Please read this line to the camera." Ronald took out the script and handed it to Sigourney.

Sigourney Weaver watched for a while, then gathered her emotions and read the lines:

"Some basic rules. In my opinion, you are my contact with the outside world. People's impression of me starts with you. You have to be tough when necessary; you have to be considerate to customers and important people; record

Be accurate and on time; don’t make promises you can’t keep.”

Ronald and Julia Taylor looked at each other and nodded repeatedly. This was the scene where Catherine met Tess for the first time and set rules for her in the office. Sigourney Weaver understood this slightly mean emphasis from her boss.

very good.

"I drink black coffee and my lunch is at one o'clock. Keep a pack of Lux (high-end cigarettes) in your desk. I'm never on another phone, I'm always in meetings (when it's not convenient for Katherine to answer the phone)

excuse).

I think we are a team. Therefore, we have to dress in the same style. Simple, elegant and impeccable. Wear tasteless clothes and they will notice the clothes themselves. Dress impeccably and they will notice the clothes inside.

Women. For example: Coco Chanel?”

Sigourney Weaver continued reading the next paragraph, hiding the rich girl's contempt for Tess from a poor family in her lecture. Tess's family background makes it impossible to afford Coco Chanel.

clothes. Saying this is undoubtedly a bigger stab.

"How do I look?" Julia Taylor, as an audition stand-in, read one of Tess's lines. She found that her boss Catherine was dissatisfied with her clothes, so she had to carefully ask the other person what she didn't like about herself.

"Get rid of the jewelry that takes over the spotlight," Sigourney Weaver continues...

"I want your advice, too, and welcome your ideas. I like to see hard work being rewarded. On my team, we have a two-way communication path. Am I clear?" Sigourney Way

Fu entered the state, and his expression of looking down was very realistic.

"Yes, Catherine." Julia Taylor was brought into the scene. At this time, Tess felt heavy. This new boss was not easy to serve.

"And", Sigourney Weaver put on an understatement and deliberately put away her dissatisfied expression, "you can call me Catherine."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Ronald couldn't help but stand up and applaud. This kind of contempt for secretaries hidden in his bones is a common problem among certain classes of people on Wall Street. Sigourney

·Weaver did not let Ronald direct him and acted out this subtle feeling naturally. This is the performance of a very powerful actor.

"How did she do it?" Ronald was very satisfied with the performance of this actress whom he had only met once. He called Cameron and said that he would probably choose Weaver as the second female lead. He asked Seager

Ni Weaver said her lines in the audition and couldn't help but admire Cameron's ability to recognize people.

"She comes from an acting family, and her husband is a Broadway director. She lives in Manhattan, New York..." Cameron reported several background keywords of Sigourney Weaver.

"Stop talking, I understand, thank you, Jim." Ronald thought to himself, presumably in addition to the actor's own ability, there must be something gained from living in Manhattan, New York, and observing those company executives.

I took the audition tape to show it to Goldberg of 20th Century Fox, who also recognized Sigourney Weaver's acting skills and was very satisfied with Ronald's choice.

Sigourney Weaver's previous roles in "Ghostbusters" and "Alien 2" were both very good at the box office. American audiences are very familiar with her. The addition of such a star will be very beneficial to the promotion of "Working Girl".

"Sigourney, did my audition director call your agent?" Ronald called Weaver afterwards.

"Yes, Ronald, I'm very happy to have the opportunity to work with you." Ronald's previous film "Top Gun" and the heroine of "Dirty Dancing" have achieved star status after working with him.

A huge improvement. This is why Weaver hopes to cooperate with Ronald.

"I'm calling you to ask about your schedule. I've found two real female executives on Wall Street for you and the heroine Demi Moore. You will follow them as interns for a period of time after Christmas and observe how they usually behave.

How to speak, how to arrange work, how to attend meetings, and how to communicate with customers.”

"That's great, I have no problem with my time, I've just finished filming 'Gorillas in the Mist,' a film about naturalist Diane Fossey (an expert on gorillas in Rwanda who was murdered by poachers in 1985).

) life movie, Jim (Simpson, her husband) would be very happy if she could go back to Manhattan for Christmas.

"Then it's settled." Ronald was also very happy. The main roles have been decided, and then he can move to New York and start preliminary preparations.

…

"Ronnie, you haven't spent Christmas with your aunt in a long time." Ronald was busy auditioning for other roles in New York, as well as communicating with Theresa Kate and Demi Moore's secretary crash course. In addition, he also had a meeting with Shi

Recommended by Steve Bannon, two senior female executives from Wall Street investment banks met for a meeting.

Both of them speak and act like the female bankers that Ronald imagined. The biggest difference between them and the actors who play them is that they are not as beautiful as the actors. Of course, it is very necessary to choose beautiful women to star in commercial movies.

beautify.

Another difference is that these two female executives are both chain smokers, which Ronald doesn't want to repeat in the movie. Recently, big cities like New York and Los Angeles are all in Hollywood.

Driven by the appeals of many celebrities and the promotion of anti-smoking advertisements, public places began to be divided into smoking and non-smoking areas, and the intensity of enforcement began to increase under public pressure.

Therefore, in the movie, Ronald also has to conform to the trend of public opinion, and smoking is limited to scenes where a few characters undergo drastic changes and feel depressed.

"Fortunately, my new movie is being shot in New York." Ronald chuckled and brought back gifts for his aunt, her boyfriend, and Donna, and he just took them out.

"Thank you, thank you." My aunt received embroidered jewelry from China, her boyfriend received a set of high-end kitchen utensils, and Donna received an authentic cashmere scarf, which was light and warm.

"Is that all the gifts?" Donna looked at the scarves this year compared to the car, jewelry and other gifts she received from her cousin in the past. Her own salary was quite high, so saying this was completely a compliment to her cousin.

Coquettish behavior.

"If you have any wishes, you can tell me." Ronald rubbed his nose and looked like Santa Claus.

"Hahaha... I'm happy with anything you give me," Donna smiled at Ronald, then took out a small box from her bag and handed it to Ronald, "Your gift."

"Oh, I didn't expect to receive a gift from you." Ronald opened it and saw a Montblanc signature pen inside, with a white logo in the shape of Mont Blanc and a thick black pen.

The body and gold nib feel good in the hand.

"This is a gift from your aunt." Aunt Karen also took out a small box. Ronald opened it and saw that it was the same European pilot's watch passed down from his ancestors. There are also scales under the big dial.

Luminous is very suitable for Ronald's identity as a director, and it is also very practical.

The family happily finished their Christmas dinner when little Douglas ran over and chatted with Ronald.

Donna said hello to him and went to her room. Douglas Jr. shrugged and told Ronald about the election for deputy commander.

"I have been accompanying George Jr. during this time. They are now in a leading position in the party's primaries and are very likely to be nominated at the Elephant Party convention next year. His brother Jeb also resigned from public office in Florida and came back.

Join dad's campaign."

"Humph...our friend little George..." Ronald knew that his friend was not as favored by his mother Barbara as his brother, and it seemed that his influence in the campaign team would decline.

"Now is a critical moment. George Jr. and his brother Jeb are both responsible for fundraising. If George Sr. is elected, both sons have political ambitions."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Little George wants to join politics?" Ronald was a little surprised. This man has always been like a Texas cowboy, without any big ambitions. It seems that no one has the uncle in his family.

Look.

"Joining the campaign team, he must have seen the benefits of being in politics." Douglas Jr. actually learned a lot of internal secrets while working with George Jr. on the campaign.

"Okay, how much do you want to donate to him? How much should I contribute?" Ronald understood that Douglas Jr. said this, and his meaning was very clear. They were already bound to George Jr., their son, in the George family. If they could participate in the fundraising activities

, let little George perform better than his younger brother...

Moreover, Barbara has always taken good care of her family. If George Sr. is elected, these sons may all hold important positions.
