The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 86 Sorry

After hanging up the phone, Darren Star couldn't help but have an excited smile on his face. He didn't expect that Anson's kid would be able to bring surprises in a magazine shoot. This thing... indeed exceeded expectations.

Should he sell David Klein a favor to help push him?

As soon as he started to think, his phone vibrated again. Darren glanced at the caller ID, and the smile on his lips flickered in his eyes.

"Hey, Anson, I was just talking to David on the phone about you."

The person on the other end of the phone was Anson. He didn't panic when he heard his name unexpectedly and said smoothly, "No wonder my ears are so itchy."

Darren laughed heartily, "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing."

Then he asked, and Darren was also a little curious, "What happened during the filming of 'GQ'? David just called and said that the 'GQ' editorial department had a dispute because of you."

Anson did not answer, but asked, "Dispute? About what?"

Darren slowly leaned back in his chair, "The editor in charge of your shooting thought that you should be given more space. The shooting effect far exceeded expectations. She thinks that you can lead a new fashion trend and break stereotypes."

This incident caused a huge stir in the "GQ" editorial department. After all, this is the June issue. If Anson's space is increased, it means that other people's space needs to be reduced.

So, whose should be reduced?
No one can be offended.

Moreover, is it for just Anson?
However, the editor was very active and strongly expressed his views. He not only showed the results of his work, but also developed evidence-based arguments——

She believes that this is an opportunity for "GQ" to change its positioning.

Rumor has it that Anson's photos sparked a series of discussions, and the editor actually won a series of support.

Not just because of Anson.

The main reason is that they believe that set of photos can create some waves in the field of fashion. This is also the image that "GQ" has always aspired to create, leading the trend like "Vogue", "Her" and other top magazines.

Only in this way can they get rid of the passive situation of relying on celebrities, and in turn let those artists and crew rely on "GQ".

For the magazine, a crucial opportunity, an opportunity that is more important than any actor or crew, is related to Anson but actually has nothing to do with Anson.

but.

The problem is that the "GQ" editorial department also has its own concerns and considerations. If they have to sacrifice the space of a certain person or a certain crew, it means that they have to offend some people, and they need some reward.

Then the call came to David Klein.

"Friends" magazine shoot invitations this summer are too numerous to count. If it weren't for Anson, David Klein wouldn't be prepared to consider "GQ."

As for the previously agreed conditions, it could be the September or October issue, which is the season when the seventh season of "Friends" starts airing. Anyway, there was no time limit when the original agreement was made.

But now things are different and ideas have changed.

"GQ" hopes that David Klein can fulfill his promise in July, which is the time when salary negotiations are most anxious or have results; then they will increase Anson's coverage.

The question is whether David Klein is willing.

David Klein thought that if Anson could be further promoted, it would no longer be for salary negotiations, but for the purpose of establishing connections in Hollywood.

So, David Klein's call came to Darren.

This is indeed a very interesting thing.

Darren himself couldn't help but become curious about what happened to Anson in the studio.

On the other end of the phone——

Gretel?
Anson didn’t expect Gretel to think so highly of himself, but to be honest, “I’m not sure, I just skated on the studio that day.”

Anson wasn't kidding, he was serious.

Darren pursed his lips slightly, but Anson must have done something right. Maybe they would be able to understand after seeing the magazine photos. So, should he agree?
Everyone has their own calculations, including Darren.

After thinking for a while, Darren changed the subject, "Isn't it because you called me because of the magazine?"

Anson chuckled, "No, there were some problems during the shooting that day, but we solved it smoothly on the spot. I haven't thanked Uncle Darren yet. You said magazine shooting, I didn't expect it to be 'GQ' that day. I thought I found the wrong studio.”

"Haha." Darren laughed heartily, "You little guy are still scared?"

Anson shook his head repeatedly, "Mom said that even if you are scared, you can't be seen by others, so I secretly called Uncle Darren."

Darren's eyes and mouth were full of smiles, and he could hear the joking in Anson's words, "Why, what happened?"

Anson didn't hide anything, "It's about the agent."

Darren didn't interrupt and listened patiently.

"Uncle Darren introduced two agents, who were undoubtedly big names, but I thought they might not be suitable for me."

Darren worked hard to make connections, which not only cost time and energy, but also required favors, but Anson refused them all. He believed that he needed to give Darren an explanation so as not to put Darren in trouble.

Darren was a little surprised——

He was not surprised by Anson's personality. This child had grown up with his personality since he was a child. He had ideas and opinions. Even if he rejected the agent, it would not be a surprise.

What really surprised him was that neither agent could satisfy Anson?
Darren was not angry, but rather interested, "Have you met them?"

Anson cleared his throat and smiled, "If you refuse without even meeting, it would be too disrespectful to Uncle Darren."

"Haha." Darren laughed directly, "You can refuse without meeting. I'm just a helper, but Anson, you should keep one thing in mind, this is your career, the agent is the same as the job, it's all yours With shoes, only you know how comfortable they feel in them.”

"I don't want to see you depressed or your career in trouble. God, your mother will be sad. I may not even dare to come to your house for dinner."

This time, it was Anson's turn to laugh heartily, "No one can guarantee success or failure. This is the charm of Hollywood. Uncle Darren, what do you think?"

Darren nodded slightly. It was not easy for him to see this clearly at such a young age.

Anson did not continue to talk in circles, "I met with Harry Smith from William Morris first."

Everything was exactly as Edgar predicted——

Hair spray. Rolex. Floor to ceiling windows.

Malone - Brandy. Audrey Hepburn.

All details have been verified, almost making one doubt the extent to which Edgar is a prophet. Harry indeed proves his brilliance with various details, and uses these flashy prosperity to confuse Anson and form psychological hints.

Then, Anson asked Edgar's question, "How do I stand out? How do I highlight my own characteristics and prove that I have the ability to become a superstar?"

Harry... gave a very interesting response -

Not an answer but a response.

Harry began to use Natalie Portman and Mel Gibson as examples, believing that Anson could follow their footsteps to the top of Hollywood and become a member of the "A list" in the future.

"A-list", this is the pinnacle of Hollywood, the existence that everyone needs to look up to.

Harry didn't have a plan or idea. To be precise, he hadn't even studied Anson. There were too many newcomers like this in Hollywood——

Even with Darren Star as a backer.

"You'll be like Natalie. Your name will be next to Mel's. What could be better than that?"
