Chapter 6 - 6. Audition

Terence Chang knew very well that the guy recommended by David Permut was quite strong. If John Woo had not strongly opposed it before, he would probably have been the chosen one.

That guy has been preparing for this role for quite some time. Even if his acting skills are not that outstanding, at least he has made a lot of preparations.

When Terrence Chang was about to refuse, Rowan suddenly said in a loud voice: "It's better to do it today than to wait for a day. In fact, today is a good day. If you don't mind, we can go for the audition now. I just don't know if you will keep your word."

Terence Chang's face changed,and just as he was about to speak, David Permut came over, sneered disdainfully, and suppressed the anger in his heart.

After all, anyone who is called an "old" would be furious, not to mention Rowan, who in his eyes was just an ant-like character. He raised his eyebrows and nodded directly,saying: "It's deal. We'll gather at Paramount Studios at 2 pm today. Don't let me down then, or you'll probably

never make it in Hollywood, young man!"

After saying that, he turned around and left. A short black figure following behind him glanced at Rowan coldly, raised his hand and gently cut his neck, his arrogance was clearly revealed.

Rowan's pupils shrank slightly, and endless anger boiled in his heart, but he suppressed the urge to attack. He just gave him a calm smile, then straightened his body slightly, looked towards the sun, and ignored the short guy.

The black man snorted, with disdain in his eyes then turned and chased after David Permut.

Watching their backs as they left, Terence Chang suddenly sighed, patted Rowan on the shouIder and said "It's my fault that your future may get ruined. This David Permut guy is no simple matter. Don't be fooled by his sissy appearance. He is a very capable person. He is also one of the most powerful producers in Paramount. He is not someone you can mess with!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Rowan still said calmly "Such a good role is placed in front of me, every actor will fight for it. As long as the movie is successful, no one will care, right?"

After a slight pause, Terence Chang smiled again, patted Rowan's shoulder with emotion, and said thoughtfully "Good boy, you are brave. If you are not afraid, why should I be afraid? I will call John Woo and ask him to get ready. Now come with me to the car and take a good look at the script. I will explain everything to you in detail. Don't worry too much, with your skills you will definitely win."

Having said that both Rowan and Terence Chang knew very well that the other party was already two steps ahead, and winning this fight was not going to be as easy as they imagined!

However, Rowan was not going to give up because of difficulties. After witnessing the power of his cheat, he will not retreat at all.

Rowan quickly browsed through the script. His powerfuI memory was clearly demonstrated at this moment. He combined all the memories in his mind with those of the movie "Face/Off".

The general impression of a character appears in his mind. This is a very special character.

Even in Rowan's impression, this character did not seem to appear in the movie "Face/Off".

It is not known whether it was due to a power struggle or the two sides failed to reach a settlement, but in the final version that Rowan saw, this character was not mentioned in the film.

Rowan couldn't help but wonder if it was designed by his Dream Dungeon but that seems to far fetched.

But no matter what, this is indeed a very outstanding role, at least more important than alI the roles he could get right now combined.

Rowan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The chaotic thoughts in his mind kept jumping.Then he remembered something and took out his phone and said softly "Do you suggest I make a phone call? I need to have my agent come over. She doesn't know yet that I'm going to get the job."

Terence Chang was stunned at first, then nodded thoughtfully, carefully looking at Rowan's calm face. The anxiety in his heart seemed to dissipate a little. He nodded and patted his shoulder: "Haha, the young are really formidable!"

"Beep,beep, beep..."

The crisp ring of the phone broke

the silence inside the Flame Entertainment Agency. Sarah, who was feeling a little bored, suddenly looked up, picked up the phone and said skillfully "Hello, my name is Sarah, this is Flame Entertainment Agency, who are you?"

"It's me Rowan, the actor signed under Mary Acker, I have something important to discuss with her. Please notify her Miss Sarah."

The steady voice came into her ears, with a hint of urgency, which made Sarah not seem opopressed, so she couldn't help but respond "Okay, I will get Miss Mary for you right away."

With a crisp "beep" sound, Mary raised her head, put down the Parker pen in her hand, suppressed the fatigue on her face, quickly adjusted her state, reached out and picked up the phone, and said in a slightly hoarse

voice: "Hello? This is Mary Acker"

"It's me Rowan, and I'm about to find a job."

A calm voice came from the other end of the phone. Mary raised her eyebrows. She just had dinner with him last night so what type of job did he find? However, as a manager with strong psychological quality, Mary did not show any emotion. She nodded calmly

and said "hmm" softly,"Then what?"

The person on the other end of the phone paused, then continued in a calm voice "The third role in the crew of Face/Off, an important supporting role with at least 30 minutes of performance time. I have qualified for the final round of audlitions."

Mary stood up in an instant, suppressed the surging breath in her heart, took adeep breath, slowly adjusted her mentality, and then continued in a calm voice: "Well, where are you now? I'Il be right there."

"In the cafe outside Paramount Studios. The audition is at 2pm."

"Wait for me there, I will be right there, Sarah! Go get my car and come over, I am going to hang up now, see you later!"

Mary hung up the phone quickly, then looked at Sarah's back as she quickly walked out the door. She raised her slender fingers and touched the tip of her nose thoughtfully "Rowan did you hide something from me last night!" She couldn't believe that just because Rowan saved Terence Chang from getting robbed he would award him with such an important role.

While Mary was thinking, a car horn sounded outside. Mary gathered her long light blond hair and quickly dressed up as a skilled and capable white-collar lady. She took out her high-end formal suit and quickly walked outside, whispering softly in her heart "Please don't let me down!"

Half an hour later. Terence Chang, Rowan and Mary sat around a table Terence Chang

tapped the glass table top with his fingers and said witthout hiding his difficulties "Regarding the setting of this role, Woo hesitated for a long time. After filming, he was a little worried that he would compete with the two main characters for the screen time. He needed to adjust the degree, so he was stuck at the end."

"Mr. Terence, according to what you said, unless Director Woo has the final editing rights, this character's scenes will definitely be edited."

Mary clearly grasped the main reason and analysed it calmly and softly. Rowan shook his head. He didn't care how many scenes were cut in the end. He only cared whether he could get the role after all a role like this wouldn't get him much from his dream dungeon "Don't think about it too much for now. The most urgent thing now is how to get this job."

"Well, Rowan is right.These are things for the future.The most important thing now is how to beat Martin Lawrence, the actor

recommended by David Permut!"

Terence Chang took outa stack of information and handed it over. Rowan stretched out his hand to take it, and

the cornerof his mouth twitched slightly. A familiar face appeared in front of him. It was the short black man following behind David Permut.

"Martin Lawrence was originally a singer. In 1989, he starred in the drama film "Do the Right Thing" directed by Spike Lee, and in 1991 he starred in the comedy film "House Party 2" In 1992, he starred in the drama film "The Bodyguard", and in 1995, in the action film "Bad Boys" Then he went back to being a singer. Until this year, he was ready to return to the entertainment industry. Last month, he joined a crew and starred in the comedy "Nothing to Lose" Judging from his resuime alone, he is a very strong opponent, but unfortunately this guy is not sensible. Originally, the gold medal producer Jerry Bruckheimer asked him and Will Smith to start filming "Bad Boys 2" as soon as possible.

He actually complained that the salary was too low and asked for $8 million, but was rejected by Jerry Bruckheimer."

While Rowan was still browsing Martin Lawrence's resume, Mary, who was sitting quietly on the other side, had already reported everything about him. Mary had long known Mary's abilities.

Terence Chang was very surprised. He looked at this seemingly young agent again and understood why Rowan wanted to pull Mary over.
