I am directing big events in American comics

Chapter 184 Are you just squatting there?

Yes.

From the first moment he saw Jonathan's photo, Tony realized that he must immediately turn Jonathan into his teammate.

Regardless of whether he was related to Steve or not.

Jonathan and Steve are so much alike that they are almost different ages of the same person.

All it takes is a little growth, some muscle building, some temperament, and he'll be a completely different version of Steve.

No one can tell any difference.

This is Tony's secret weapon.

Maybe you won't use it now, but at a critical moment, if you really fall out with Steve, this is the substitute you can use to replace Steve!

Jonathan was completely confused by Tony's question.

Ask yourself if you want to be Captain America?

He knows that he looks like Steve Rogers, but just because he looks like him, it doesn't mean he can really become Captain America!

"Mr. Stark, stop joking..."

呲——

Tony suddenly stepped on the brakes and stopped the car on the side of the road.

"Boy, I'm not kidding you!"

Tony said with a serious face, "Did you know? In fact, the reason why I came to you this time is to make an investment with you."

"Investment? Me?"

Jonathan looked suspicious of life. He heard that Mr. Stark never made a loss in business.

Then let yourself teach him a lesson today?

Let him know what it means to lose all your money?

"I just opened the skylight and spoke frankly."

Tony took off his sunglasses and poked Jonathan's chest with the frame, "I want to invest in your future. From the first time I saw you, I knew you would definitely have a future!

"You want to be a racing driver, right? I support your dream, bear all the expenses for you to become a racing driver, and arrange everything for you with the top-notch configuration!

“But I will give you a series of training plans that you must complete, and there is no room for negotiation.

“Also, you are not allowed to appear in any media without my permission in the future!

"I still have to give you a fake name, and I can't use the last name Stone anymore.

"What's it called? How about Chris Evans?"

Tony rambled on, and Jonathan felt that he roughly understood Tony's intention.

"I see, Mr. Stark, you want to form a team!"

Jonathan's eyes lit up, "Do you want to be my boss and help me plan my career?"

"Uh……"

Tony thought about it and realized that was correct.

"You can understand it that way. As I said, I can tell at a glance that your kid will be promising."

"I will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Jonathan couldn't believe what a great day it was.

My sister received the audition notice, and she met a boss who was willing to sign her!

Although he has yet to touch a car, Jonathan believes in his talent.

After all, Mr. Stark never trades at a loss!

Tony suddenly thought of something: "By the way, you don't need to call me Mr. Stark from now on, just call me Tony."

"what?"

Jonathan said anxiously, "Wouldn't this be disrespectful?"

"It's okay. You have to get used to it. After all, that's what that guy calls him."

Tony shook his head and said, "I don't like red tape, so don't act so reserved in front of me. Be more natural."

"Oh, alright!"

Jonathan took a deep breath and tried to relax as much as possible.

Then, Jonathan suddenly thought of something very important.

"By the way, Mr. Tony, I want to ask you a question."

Tony held his forehead and said, "Just Tony, don't ask me sir, forget it, just take your time. What do you want to ask?"

Jonathan looked excited and said: "Can I ask who recommended me to you? I want to thank him very much!"

"Who recommended you?"

Tony said casually, "No one recommended you, I found your information myself."

"Then where did you see it?"

Jonathan scratched the back of his head and smiled, "To be honest, I don't remember that I signed up for any projects online."

"Oh yes, you don't know yet!"

Tony suddenly realized that he had never had to explain to Jonathan just now.

"It's like this, I recently invested in a movie, the one where your sister auditioned for the heroine. I was looking at your sister's information, and I saw your information by the way.

"I have to say, your sister is really an excellent actress.

"Our meeting like this can be considered fate, right?"

After Tony finished speaking, Jonathan's muscles suddenly tightened.

Tony Stark, looking at his sister’s information?

Although I don’t know much about it, when the two words investor and actress are linked together, people will always have a bad association.

Jonathan couldn't help but sneak a glance at Tony.

I had seen that face on the news countless times before.

He seems to be a playboy who likes to have sex with women all the time?

Something is wrong!

Absolutely not right!

Jonathan never wanted to believe that Tony really paid attention to his sister because of her acting skills!

He just said that his sister is a good actress?

How can it be!

Because of that strange disease, his sister has never actually acted in a play!

I always fail in auditions and never succeed once!

Moreover, Jonathan thought of a more terrifying possibility.

The first person Tony found was himself...

He won't be...

Jonathan made fists with his hands and placed them on his knees, not daring to move.

"Jonathan."

Suddenly, Tony called his name.

"Yes!"

Jonathan stiffened and couldn't help but answer.

Tony showed a bright smile: "It's great for your sister to have a brother like you!"

goo-dong-

Jonathan swallowed.

……

The next day, the Stone family.

Susan Stone woke up early to prepare for today's audition.

This is her last chance. If she fails again this time, she will have no choice but to give up her acting dream.

Sitting in front of the dressing table with her hair tied, the curves of her body were vividly outlined.

Golden strands of hair fell from her forehead, revealing a flawless and delicate face.

very good!

Susan patted her cheek to cheer herself up.

This time, as long as the strange disease doesn't happen again, I will definitely be able to win this role!

This time it is a remake of the classic "Beauty and the Beast". She has pondered the psychological journey of the character Belle countless times.

The only thing she's a little worried about now is that she doesn't know who will play the male lead this time, the Beast Prince.

If all special effects shots were used, it would be a bit stressful.

dong dong dong-

After finishing dressing up, Susan walked down the stairs, came to the door of her brother Jonathan's room, and knocked gently.

"Jonathan, are you awake?"

"Um……"

A low and lost voice came from inside, Susan frowned and twisted the door handle.

"Why do you sound so sad? I'm in!"

When she opened the door, she saw her brother burying his head in the pillow, unwilling to raise his head to look at her.

Susan walked to Jonathan worriedly and asked worriedly: "What's wrong with you? Are you being bullied?"

She forcefully pulled Jonathan's head over, and then saw an indescribable crying face.

Susan quickly buried his head into the pillow again.

Crying is so ugly.

"Sister, I blew an opportunity!"

"What's the matter?"

Jonathan's voice came from the pillow: "Yesterday, my boss wanted to invest in my dream, but because of a misunderstanding, I did something very extreme. I ruined this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

"Pfft!"

Susan was amused, "What did I think? Are you still awake from the dream? How could a bully invest in a kid who has never driven a car to become a racing driver!"

Jonathan said in a sullen voice, "You'll see him soon!"

"what?"

"nothing!"

Jonathan said angrily, "I wish you a successful audition!"

"Then I will honor your good words!"

Susan patted Jonathan on the back, and then warned, "I'm going out. I've put breakfast and lunch in the refrigerator. You can go outside to take care of dinner by yourself. If I don't come back for several days, you will …”

"do not talk!"

Jonathan interrupted loudly, "Haven't you been sick for a long time?"

Susan couldn't help but said: "But I'm just afraid of what might happen..."

Jonathan turned his head away, looking like he didn't want to hear any more.

"Okay, okay, I won't nag anymore!"

Susan stood up helplessly and rubbed her brother's hair, "Then I'm going out. Take good care of yourself and remember that I love you!"

"To shut up!"

As Jonathan shouted, Susan really didn't speak.

After the footsteps, there was the sound of the door opening and closing.

My sister is out.

Jonathan turned around and buried his head in the quilt.

He really didn't like this feeling.

Every time my sister goes out, it feels like she is saying goodbye to herself forever.

……

At the gate of the Holy Sanctuary, looking at the brand new sports car, Lorraine had a black line on his face.

Tony smiled and handed over the key: "Here, this is for you. If a man doesn't have a car, no woman will like it!"

"Don't talk about this!"

Lorraine looked at Tony's green right eye and asked curiously, "Who hit you? It feels pretty hard."

"I'm an ignorant brat. I was attacked because I didn't fight back on purpose. That's not important!"

Tony took a look at Lorraine's outfit, which was still her usual casual look.

"How could you just wear this to an audition!"

Tony sighed and said, "At least dress more formally. Fortunately, I was prepared and brought you a styling team."

He waved his hand, and several stylishly dressed people whose gender was difficult to identify immediately appeared from behind, picked up Lorraine, and brought him into the room.

Lorraine was stunned by this whole process.

Since when did Tony stop caring about his own style?

Has he really become Teacher Tony?

After a busy morning, it was almost ten o'clock when we arrived at our destination.

There were already many actresses waiting in the corridor.

Several of Lorraine have also been seen on TV.

Lorraine was pulled into the venue by Tony and pressed down on the interviewer's seat.

"You don't have to do anything!"

Tony directly interrupted all Lorraine's next questions, "Just sit here and watch!"

"Fine……"

Lorraine had never seen the audition process before, so it was just an eye-opener.

Sitting next to him were several professional directors or producers, who were also considered big names in the industry.

The main interviewer is a well-known Oscar-winning director.

But since Lorraine sat next to them, they felt that this group of people had become uncomfortable.

He sat upright, his eyes constantly glancing in his direction. "well!"

Lorraine sighed in her heart, why did Tony forcefully drag himself into this kind of situation that did not belong to him.

There is a script on the table in front of each interviewer.

Lorraine picked up a copy and didn't know the title of the movie until now.

"Beauty and the Beast".

Okay, I’ve heard of it myself.

I don’t know what role Tony has arranged for himself, maybe it’s some villager who passed by in a flash.

The interview begins.

Tony immediately got into the mood, and his playboy temperament was clearly revealed.

The entire interview process is basically like this.

The actress who comes in introduces herself first, and the director excerpts a certain excerpt from the script and asks her to perform it, and then comments a few words after the performance is over.

Occasionally at the end of an interview, Tony would chime in to chat with the actress and then hint that he was free tonight.

Lorraine was bored and could only keep reading the script.

I simply don’t know what I’m doing here.

"Hello, interviewers~"

A sweet voice sounded, and Lorraine suddenly felt clearly that something was wrong with the interviewers around her.

It seems that you are particularly focused?

Is this a ruthless character?

"My name is Susan Stone..."

Lorraine's pupils shrank suddenly, and he looked towards Tony calmly.

Then he saw Tony looking at him with a smile on his face, winking constantly, gesturing for him to look up.

Lorraine gritted her teeth.

you boy!

With Franklin's endorsement, you can do crazy things for yourself, right?

Lorraine is really big now.

After all, Lorraine couldn't help but be curious and looked up at the other party.

Then he lowered his head and drank some water.

general.

He looked up again.

Susan had already started her performance at this time.

"You are a gentleman. Even though you are ugly and covered with animal hair, you are gentle to me..."

Professional actors must be able to enter the scene at any time.

Susan did just that.

Although there was nothing in front of her, her affectionate and shy eyes seemed to be really experiencing an inner struggle, looking at the Beast Prince who didn't know whether he should love or not.

"All right!"

Suddenly, the interviewer stopped Susan.

Faced with this turn of events, Susan seemed a little frightened and could only bow deeply and wait for the interviewer's next words.

But there is no follow-up.

The scene fell into a dead silence, and no one seemed to want to speak.

Susan seemed to be hung there, with no one paying attention.

The main interviewer also said nothing, as if he was not the one who just called to stop.

Although Susan was looking straight at the interviewer, she was rubbing her fingers slightly, revealing her uneasiness.

Still no one speaks.

Lorraine glanced at Tony, and it turned out that this guy suddenly seemed to be extremely interested in the script, lowering his head and reading it non-stop.

"Ugh..."

Lorraine could already hear Susan making strange sounds in her throat due to excessive panic.

Her little face was red, and she felt so nervous that she could squeeze out water.

Lorraine just raised her eyes and locked eyes with Susan.

Of all the interviewers, only Lorraine was willing to make eye contact with her.

"help me!"

Lorraine read these words in Susan's eyes.

Alas, my psychological quality is not good, I am frightened by these characters.

But to be honest, if these guys remained silent, Susan might faint on the spot.

Forget it.

Lorraine turned to all the interviewers and said, "I think it's pretty good, what do you think?"

"We feel the same way!"

The main interviewer suddenly showed an extremely gentle smile, as if he wasn't the one with the bad face just now.

"Miss Stone, right?"

The main interviewer took a look at Susan's resume and said, "Your performance is very contagious. You can take a break and prepare for the next round. Someone will call you later!"

After hearing this announcement, Susan was relieved, bowed deeply again, and left the venue.

Before leaving, Susan couldn't help but look back and glanced at Lorraine.

"Thank you!"

Lorraine clearly read the word from her eyes.

This girl, can her eyes speak?

He understood.

Tony really took great pains to make this dumpling for this bowl of vinegar!

I'm afraid from the beginning, the heroine was decided to be Susan Stone.

The performance just now was just to make myself speak.

You guys can do it!

In this case, everyone behind me must be running with him.

Nothing to look at anymore.

Lorraine stood up and prepared to go to the bathroom.

……

After Susan Stone left the venue, she hurried through the corridor and then came to the bathroom.

"Ha ha--"

She kept breathing heavily, trying to release all the repression she had just held.

What follows is endless joy!

The hardest round passed!

She had been stuck at this level in countless auditions in the past.

It's not that her acting skills aren't good, but something else.

At this time in the venue, Tony looked at Susan's information and said in confusion: "This girl's acting skills are not bad, why did she fail all the previous auditions?"

"Maybe it's because of attitude!"

A director who had auditioned Susan said, "This girl is quite famous in the industry."

Glancing at Lorraine's empty seat, Tony asked, "What's going on?"

The director explained: "This is not once or twice. This girl often runs out of the venue for no reason in the middle of the audition performance, and then can never be found again.

"There was no explanation afterwards. With such an attitude, I will naturally not pass the audition."

Tony nodded and said thoughtfully: "Is there really no reason..."

Susan finally adjusted herself.

To be honest, in the atmosphere just now, she was really afraid that her strange disease would attack again.

But fortunately not.

It was that person who saved me.

Susan couldn't help but think of the Oriental man sitting on the edge, as if he didn't care about anything.

He looks so young, he can't be younger than himself, right?

No, now is not the time to think about that.

Susan stood up and patted her face.

Come on, there’s still one more game!

She looked at herself in the mirror and kept cheering herself up.

Then she saw that her body in the mirror suddenly changed.

Some places gradually became transparent and continued to spread to the surrounding areas.

Do not!

Susan's pupils suddenly contracted. The most feared situation finally happened!

This disease hasn’t happened for a long time, hasn’t it?

No!

I have obviously come this far...

She began to pinch the already transparent parts of her body, trying to stop the spread of invisibility.

But this is just a waste of effort.

Her hand passed through the invisible part easily, as if nothing existed there.

No!

Susan knew exactly what was coming.

This strange disease has plagued her for many years.

Next, her whole body and clothes will become transparent, and no one can notice her existence, not even herself.

When she is invisible, she cannot see herself.

Her body will no longer be touched by anyone, as if she is just a ball of air.

And her voice will never be heard again. No matter how Susan pleads for help, no one will hear her.

By then, she will be like a lonely ghost wandering in the world.

There is no connection with this world anymore.

She couldn't take the initiative to relieve this state, she could only wait until it came into contact on its own.

This time can be as short as a few seconds, or as long as there is no upper limit.

The longest time, Susan stayed in this state for a month.

If it hadn't been for the money, Jonathan would have starved to death.

"No, not this time!"

Susan hugged herself and slowly squatted down by the sink.

Her voice was choked with sobs, full of helplessness and despair.

For an unknown amount of time, she will no longer exist in this world.

According to past experience, she will remain in this position until she recovers.

Otherwise, she would not know where she would drift while floating.

There were people coming and going around, but no one noticed Susan squatting in the corner crying.

"Obviously this time, we are so close to success!"

It will always be like this, always when you are closest to your dream, it will become like this!

Do we really have no choice but to accept our fate?

Susan buried her head and heard someone calling her name.

The second round of interviews has begun.

But he can no longer go!

Susan sniffed, remembering her past failures again.

He was clearly right in front of them, but they still couldn't see anything. They called his name and then stepped over him.

Just accept your fate...

Susan finally decided not to struggle with her fate anymore.

But suddenly, there was the sound of pumping water in the compartment, and a man walked out of it.

He came to the sink and turned on the faucet, and the sound of water gurgled.

"I said, are you just squatting there?"

The man suddenly bent down and said, "Is this the men's room?"

Susan looked up.

Then he saw the pair of black eyes that he had talked to before.
