Lance's eyes looked at Mickey as if he was sitting on pins and pins. The playfulness in his eyes made him feel like he was a product waiting to be sold. Mickey's irritability increased little by little, and finally he could not hold back anymore. He said gritting his teeth, "What are you looking at! Gay!"

However, Lance did not seem to be frightened, but leaned forward and said slowly, "I'm confirming whether you are a coward."

As soon as he said this, David, who was sitting next to him, immediately pressed Mickey's shoulder, "Calm down, Mickey, calm down!" But unexpectedly, Mickey was not only not angry, but also widened his eyes and stared at Lance, "I'm fine." Mickey's voice squeezed out from his teeth, which was what David said, but David still didn't dare to let go of his hands and looked at Mickey with some uncertainty.

"I'm fine!" Mickey said word by word. David hesitated for a moment and slowly let go of his hands. This scene was so funny. Cole sat across the opposite side seriously, but his heart was already laughing. Mickey stared at Lance intently, "What do you mean by his/her mother?"

Lance did not answer immediately, but slowly took his briefcase to the desktop, then took out the laptop inside, and then looked at Mickey, "It's literal." Cole couldn't help but look at Lance - Lance clearly knew how to anger others, "If you want to play the role of Muffer, you must not only be tough enough, strong enough, brave enough, but also have excellent acting skills. I don't want a facial paralysis covered in muscles - otherwise Arnold Schwarzenegger or Dwayne Johnson will be better choices."

Cole couldn't bear to look at him, Lance definitely knew how to anger others, because he could already see Mickey's fist clenched again.

But Lance seemed to have not realized it at all, and then said, "You are afraid. You are rejecting, you are afraid. I'm not sure why, but if you feel that you are not competent, I don't mind ending today's audition now."

"...Mr. Strello." David spoke, trying to find a suitable title, and finally chose this honorific title. Unconsciously, David had already got rid of the idea of ​​"Mickey is the first choice" and put himself in a lower position, wanting to work hard to win the role of "City of Sin".

Lancelot plus the Coen brothers, plus Frank Miller. This is an irresistible proposal. Even if it is just a supporting role, even if the pay is reduced, he will win it for Mickey.

"Mickey's condition is a bit unstable today. His Chihuahua Loki is sick..." Michi turned his head and glared at David. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that David was talking nonsense, but neither Lance nor Cole exposed him. David seemed to have not noticed Mickey's sight. "Loki is like his family. So he has been worried. But believe me, he is ready, and he will never let you down."

Lance shrugged without responding positively. "We will go to that point." Then Lance turned to look at Mickey, "Are you sure you want to continue?"

Mickey stared at Lance, whose vicious face looked a little ferocious. It was difficult for clumsy facial muscles to make rich expressions, and the twitching muscles in the stiffness became more and more terrifying. This reminded Lance of Muffer. Muffer had several patches on his face, each patch was a medal left by previous battles. So much so that his facial expression was monotonous and ferocious.

"Let me see what you have!" Mickey said viciously.

On the list of Mickey's co-directors, you can see the names of Francis Ford Coppola, Michael Simino (fancai-ci no), and Barry-levison. The new director Lance naturally has no great deterrence to him.

Lance didn't mind Mickey's attitude and turned the computer to Mickey, which made Mickey stunned. Lance handed over the earbuds, "You can watch this video first, and then let's talk about it. This is the opening of my filming for the movie. After you walk into the cinema, the first act is this."

"You shot the opening of the movie?" Mickey seemed very surprised. This was really a bold move, but it can also be seen that Lance's creative philosophy is very clear and firm.

Lance did not comment. Mickey took the earplug, put the peanut-sized earplug into his ear, and clicked the play button. David, who was sitting next to him, originally wanted to greet Cole, but he was just an agent, and he didn't know much about the movie, and he didn't need to know too much - Lance and the signature of the Coen brothers were enough, but he saw black and white images in his eyes, which surprised David.

In Hollywood today, shooting black and white movies is simply seeking death. What the hell is Lance doing!

David looked over and saw Kate Beckinsale's thrilling red lips, and his eyes could no longer be removed.

In the blink of an eye, the three-minute video ended. David raised his eyes and looked at Lance, flashing with the stormy light, as if he could not believe the scene he saw. The powerful impact almost made him lose his composure. Mickey, who was sitting next to him, had no expression, but could not tell whether it was really expressionless, or was his face too stiff that he could not see the emotions.

Mickey supported his chin with his right hand, as if he was in deep thought. Lance was not in a hurry and leaned slowly towards the back of the chair. The scent of coffee in the room seemed quiet and distant, making the irritability settle down. Then Mickey raised her head and looked at Lance intently and seriously, "You said just now that this character is called Muffer? You said that the character is a difficult challenge, is that true?"

From this statement, we can see that if nothing unexpected happens, Muffer will be played by Mickey.

However, Lance was not too excited. Muffer was the protagonist of the "hard farewell", and in a sense, it was also the most important part of the whole movie. Lance needed Mickey to show the temperament of the evil and softness behind the character. The disgusting and kind-hearted monster was not what Lance pursued. Muffer was undoubtedly a bad guy, and his only persistence was just for Gotty - because Gotty brought a moment of warmth to his heart.

"This is a scarred character, he is cruel, bloody, and fierce. He uses any means to achieve his goal, and every wound on his face represents a battle. He is naturally ugly, so he is always ridiculed and ridiculed. So he fights back with thunder, so he teaches those who laugh at him a lesson. If necessary, he doesn't mind his hands being covered with blood." This is the result of the discussion between Lance and Frank.

In the original comics, Muffer actually has a disgusting and kind face. He just looks fierce, but in fact he doesn't hurt others. People always stay away from him, just like someone throws something in the classroom. The first one is always the black man, and the second one is always the one who doubts. This makes Muffer's temper become very irritable and responds to every oppression of society in an irritable manner.

Now Lance has made the character worse, tooth for tooth and eye for eye. When others laugh at him, he will never stingy to fight back, so that his hands are dyed red by blood. Lance intends to use special makeup techniques to create a scarred face for Mickey, as well as a palm, and blood stains that have become dirt between his fingers due to dryness will be his medal.

"But for a woman, he embarked on the road to seeking revenge. He was not kind or soft, but..." Before Lance finished speaking, Mickey took over the conversation, "It's just his own persistence." Lance paused. The end of his eyebrows raised slightly, and then nodded, "Yes. So. This character needs a very delicate performance. I need the role to be cruel enough. The only persistence is almost no one can see, but it must be felt by the audience. Therefore, this puts forward a very difficult requirement for the performance, especially the basic line skills."

Lance looked at Mickey's cheek. Due to the large amount of hyaluronic acid, it was difficult for Mickey to make delicate expressions - this was consistent with Muffer, so Mickey could only perform through eyes and lines. The problem is that the light and shadow effect of "City of Sin" is too eye-catching, and the eye effect will be weakened and will be shadowed more often, so the basic skills of the line are crucial.

"This is not an easy task. You are my first choice, but not the only choice." Lance's words were tilted until he continued, and then he left a lot of blank spaces for Mikey to think.

Mickey was silent, he knew clearly that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not only because the stylization of the movie was eye-catching, but also because he could feel that the character Lance mentioned was tailor-made for him.

How ironic his life was. At first, he attracted attention because of his appearance and was considered an idol. Even if he had acting skills, people always paid more attention to his appearance. Later, he was rejected because of his appearance. In the past ten years, he missed countless opportunities and encountered countless cold receptions. He was always floating between the third and second lines, as if he could no longer see the sunshine.

And now, he finally received a decent work, a decent character, but he suddenly began to be a little scared: If he had lost the touch of the performance and could not meet the requirements of Lance? If he could not interpret the depth of the character at all and ruined the role? If he even messed up the opportunity to get it this time, would the future be completely over here?

That kind of worry about gains and losses made Mickey silent.

David sat aside, unable to help but feel anxious. He wanted to let Mickey go next, and he even wanted to speak instead of Mickey and agreed directly, but he had no choice. David couldn't help but pinch his wet palms, feeling that he was about to breathe.

Time began to get faster, and in the blink of an eye, five minutes passed, and Lance's voice broke the silence, "I don't care about your past, I don't care about your future. What I care about is, can you play the role of Muffer? If not, please tell me that I still have time to choose other actors now." There is no anger, no ridicule, no joke, just telling a fact in a straightforward manner, without any surprise.

Mickey raised her head, looked at the blue eyes, and after being silent for about three seconds, she clenched her right fist and smashed her hard on the table, "I'll take it!"
