Exploiting Hollywood 1980.

Chapter 27 Female Celebrities from Europe

"Put your resume and photo back-to-back, and put four staples in the four corners."

Click, click, click, click.Ronald went back to Demi's apartment and instructed her to pin her resume behind the audition photo, which is a common practice in the industry to prevent it from being lost.

"And then?" Demi ordered and asked Ronald?
"Then you can give it to your agent, or you can give it directly to the casting director. If you don't have enough in the future, use the negatives here to reprint." Ronald handed the remaining photos and negatives to Brand New Demi Moore.

"Generally, actresses of your age need to update their audition photos at least once a year, and if they change their hairstyle, they should also update."

"Okay. I wrote it all down," Demi said.

"Then my task for today is done. I have nothing else to do. I can take the equipment and leave." Ronald hinted.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Demi took out her wallet, took out a pile of money, and counted it, only about 40, "Ronald, I'm sorry, we agreed on a photography fee of 50 yuan, but I only have 40 yuan now, and I will pay you the rest when I take more print ads."

"So, Freddie?"

"Oh, Ronald. Freddie actually doesn't want me to be an actress. He thinks it will be vain to be an actress and he will leave him in the future. So I have to pay the money myself."

Seeing that there were only a few coins left in her wallet, Ronald softened his heart, "Actually, there is another way, Demi."

"any solution?"

Demi looked at Ronald expectantly, and asked in a slightly hoarse voice.

"I need some photos of actresses to promote my photography studio. If you are willing to authorize your photos to me and let me use them for advertising, I can waive your photography fee. You only need to pay me a roll The cost of film and printing will do."

As he spoke, Ronald took out a stack of papers from his camera bag, and handed one to Demi.

Demi took a look, and it said that XX authorized the photo to Ronald Lee, and the photo could only be used for the display of the photography studio and the advertisement of the photography studio.Not for advertising use outside of promotional photography studios, outdoor advertising, etc...

"Okay, I signed it." Demi took the paper and signed her name.Then he handed over the money for the film development to Ronald.

"Thank you, Demi. You will have a place in Hollywood." Ronald said good words about no money, and was about to leave.

"Thank you, Ronald, you are a good man." Demi hugged Ronald again to express her gratitude.

"Hi! Demi, I'm here. Where's Freddy?" A woman's cheerful voice came from outside the door, vaguely the same person Demi spoke through the window just now.

"Whoa, Demi, is this your new boyfriend? He's very handsome and looks like "Superman". Do you want to be Superman's girlfriend Lois?"

Ronald almost fell when he heard the words, and quickly denied it.

"No, I didn't..."

"Hahahaha... I scared you." There was a soft laugh from the visitor, and the words were very special, as if whispering in your ear, which was unforgettable.

Demi went up and hugged her, "You're back from Hair Country, Natasha?"

Only then did Ronald have a chance to see what she looked like.

If Demi's face has the possibility of various expressions and is suitable for movies, then this Natasha is even more outstanding among them, she is simply a great creation of the god of movies.

In her face, you can see the mystery of Greta Garbo, the Hollywood goddess of the golden age, and the sensuality of Italian star Sophia Loren, mixed with a trace of Audrey Hepburn's innocence.

"Oh, my God, you should make a film adapted from a classic book." Ronald couldn't help but blurted out, admiring.

"But I'm just shooting." Natasha said.

"Natasha, this is Ronald, my photographer, and I'll show you the pictures he took of me."

Demi smiled and introduced them, "This is Natasha Kinski, who is making 'Tess' for Roman Polanski."

"Tess of the d'Urbervilles?" asked Ronald, who knew it was the famous work of the British novelist Hardy. "Are you British, Natasha?" He deliberately changed his British BBC accent, trying to get close. If she could get her to endorse his audition photo studio, then his price could be raised.

"Haha, how's my Dorset accent? For this play, I'm fine with it?" Natasha showed off to Demi.

Ronald felt that the beautiful woman Natasha had no intention of talking to him, and it was a bit regrettable, but she was the heroine of a classical blockbuster, so she should have had a good photographer to cooperate with.So he nodded to Demi and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, Ronald." Demi stopped him, and my boyfriend said I have something to see you, turned around and got two enlarged audition photos, and handed them to Natasha Kinski, "This is Ronald. Nader took pictures for me in the morning."

Natasha looked at Demi and gave her a thumbs up, "It's a good shot, better than the magazine photographers who took photos for me."

Demi hit the iron hot: "Didn't you finish filming 'Tess' and come to Hollywood to develop? Hollywood is the casting director's choice, and there are not many portrait photographers who are better than him here." She said and glanced at Luo Nader, seems to be saying, introduce you to a business.

Ronald took out his business card and sent it to Demi and Natasha.

Natasha was looking at the photos taken by Ronald. She looked at the photos, then at Demi, and then at the photos again. After comparing them for a while, she suddenly asked, "How much do you pay for a set of audition photos?"

"A set of drama and romantic comedy is 50 dollars each, plus the black and white version, a total of 80." Ronald took out a price list and handed it to Natasha, "But I will join the directors union soon, and the price will increase in the future."

"You want to join the directors' union?" Demi interjected.

"Yes, I worked for Roger Corman at New World Productions as a second unit director on 'High School of Rock'."

Looking at the blank eyes of the two beauties, Ronald shrugged: "When I didn't say it, it was just a small production of 30 dollars."

The two girls laughed together.

That's when Demi's boyfriend, Freddie, flashes in, "Hey Ronald, do you think I can do an audition photoshoot?"

It turned out that he had just gone to change, and Freddie came in wearing a red shirt, "Hi, Natasha, are you back?" and gave Natasha a hug.

"I don't think it's a problem. I just participated in the movie 'Rock High School', and I invited the Ramones to participate. I think it will become a trend for musicians to participate in movies in the future. It is right to prepare early. Yes," Ronald said.

"Okay, let's get started."

Since Freddie couldn't see well without his glasses, Ronald asked him to put them on for the photo.Anyway, he won't play other people, most likely he will play himself in the movie like Ramones.

This time it was Demi's turn to stand behind Ronald, inspiring her boyfriend's state.But her boyfriend Freddie is not a model like Demi, and he is naturally relaxed in front of the camera.He was still a little nervous about being photographed, and it took Ronald a while to adjust.

"When I was filming in Hair Country, were there any new movies in Hollywood?" Natasha and Demi happened to chat about various gossips after their separation while Freddie was relaxing and adjusting.

"I heard that 'The Deer Hunter' is good. When it was released, many Oscar judges went to see it."

"Oh, the one with Robert De Niro? I heard about it the last time I was in Hollywood. What do you think, Demi?"

"I didn't see it, 'The Deer Hunter' was only in one theater in LA for 7 days and I didn't get a ticket."

"It's a pity, let's watch it together when he is released again." Natasha Kinski pulled Demi, "After coming back this time, my agent has received a lot of scripts, you have to help Help me, I don’t have time to study English in Hair Country, and now I can only say that I can’t read it.”

Ronald laughed secretly. There are people who are completely opposite to himself in this world. I used to be able to read, not speak.

"How long will you stay this time, will you stay until the Christmas holidays are over?"

"No, this time I just came back to rest for a few days, and I will go back in the New Year." Natasha was a little distressed, "I didn't have a chance to come back, because the director of photography of the 'Tess' crew died of a heart attack, and I am looking for The new director of photography, the director just let me come to the United States, I will go back to Germany in the New Year, and attend various receptions with the director to prepare for the release of 'Tess'."

"Whoa, how long are you going to shoot? I think you guys started shooting this August."

"It will be filmed until March next year. You know, the little guy is always very demanding. Sometimes a scene needs to be shot repeatedly for a day."

"In eight months, Roger Corman can make 10 movies," Ronald thought to himself.

"By the way, I heard you say last time that if you want to make a movie, you must learn method and go to acting training class. Which training class should I go to?" Demi asked.

"The Actors Studio, the director says their acting training is the best."
