Hollywood superstar XX history [travel]

"This is not a good start." Lance Clark pushed his glasses and said sharply.

Vogt leaned lazily on the sofa, raising his straight and slender legs.Moving into a new apartment, with Fred worrying about his daily life, Vogt's inert cells belonging to Master Pfister began to revive again.As long as he returns to his place, he can definitely lie down, sit or stand.

Facing the newly-purchased sofa, which is so soft that it seems to suck people in, Vogt can barely maintain a sitting posture, which is already a respect for his newly appointed manager.

Yes, after meeting Andrew Lloyd Webber, Vogt finally signed a contract with Lance Clark and officially became a client of WMA, temporarily enjoying the treatment of a third-tier (c-list) actor, WMA draws 10%, Lance Clark takes 10%, and the contract period is five years.For a rookie, this is already a relatively generous contract, and enjoying the treatment of a third-tier star rather than a rookie is based on his acting talent in the role of Phantom.But as Cameron Mackintosh said, "Things haven't gotten out of hand yet."Drama actors are different from film actors after all.Because of the different depth and breadth of dissemination, film actors may quickly become popular with one movie, but it takes a long time for drama actors to become popular.Although Vogt's Phantom is indeed very good, he has only been on the stage for more than a month, and his influence is very limited.If he never reappears, his fame will only be fleeting like a meteor.

Lance Clark is a senior manager of WMA. He has several first-tier and second-tier actor clients. He shouldn't have paid so much attention to Vogt, a newcomer.However, Vogt got the favor of Michael Clarke, and specifically told Lance to take care of Vogt, and Lance, who had a deep affection for his grandfather, had no choice but to admit it.

Vogt's lack of obedience caused Lance Clark a lot of trouble, but who doesn't cause trouble among Hollywood stars?They are always self-taught on this.Even if Lance had felt a little bothering and annoyed, it quickly dissipated.

However, I have to say that Vogt's start as an actor was not so smooth.

First, the role of Phantom, who had just entered the state, was suspended, and the newly received script had such a theme—a very controversial homosexual theme.

"Shouldn't I take this play?" Vogt asked casually, crossing his hands behind his head.

He only lived 18 years in his last life. Although he had already received acting-related education since he was still an embryo (the crazy obsession of his father at the time), he had very little real experience in making movies.And everything he has seen and heard in this life is very similar to the pattern in the previous life, but the specifics are completely different. At least there was no "Phantom of the Opera" and "ain" ("Brokeback Mountain") at that time.His cognitive system is completely new.

Because of his previous resistance to being an actor, Vogt in this life has not systematically studied acting-related courses. His acting methods are basically derived from the education, instinct and superb imitation skills he received in his previous life.Vogt had no idea what film he should be making.

"Have you read the script yet?" Lance asked, and seeing Vogt nod, he continued, "Any thoughts?"

Vogt looked at the ceiling and thought about it seriously: "It's not bad, you know, homosexuality has no obstacles for me."

Lance: "That's you, Vogue. America is not tolerant of gays. If you make a gay movie debut, it will have a big impact on your image. At least, everyone will ask you Is it a gay?"

Vogt shrugs: "I don't care if my future partner is a man or a woman."

"So, you're gay," Lance said. "You're going to get them to label you right away. Of course, if you have a girlfriend right now..."

"Don't even think about it, Lance." Vogt shook his head. "Other things I can listen to you, but this, don't even think about it. I only have a girlfriend because my girlfriend is a girl, but no Now."

Lance's eyebrows twitched slightly.

"It's nothing to do with Sid," Vogt said. "He's not my boyfriend yet, just because I don't want to."

"You can listen to me..." Lance repeated this in a strange voice, full of doubts, "I'll wait and see."

Vogt smiled. To be honest, he couldn't give Lance more guarantees on this point.He pouted and returned to the previous question: "So, should I accept this drama?"

Lance nodded affirmatively.It must be accepted. In fact, Joe Schumacher, the director and screenwriter of the film version of "The Phantom of the Opera", once considered directing "Brokeback Mountain". He admired the script so much that he was very appreciative of Vogt's participation in the film.Among the people who made Vogt accept the audition for "Brokeback Mountain" was his grandfather Michael Clarke.Michael's attention to Vogt was so high that even Lance, the real grandson, couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.It was precisely because he often asked about Lance Vogt's situation that Lance revealed to him that Vogt's role as the Phantom was stopped. After that, Michael immediately called Andrew Lloyd Webber.I don’t know what they talked about. Webber, who was not very happy that Vogt refused to continue to play the Phantom next year, seems to have changed his attitude. He instructed the King’s Theater to cooperate with them to quell the disturbance caused by Vogt’s termination of the contract. If Vogt had chosen to audition for the film, the King's Theater would have done nothing about how they would explain it to the outside world.

Michael Clarke asked Lance again and again: "Our little boy kept his cool, he didn't lose his mind, did he?"

Vogt did throw a tantrum at King's Theater troupe director Tim Rodriguez, but he certainly didn't do anything more drastic, especially after talking to Webber—what could he do?Andrew Lloyd Webber, Cameron McIntosh, Joe Schumacher, every name is enough to crush them and leave them speechless.It's also impossible for Lance to break up with any of them for Vogt, and even if he did, it's impossible to please.

Lance felt that Michael had overestimated Vogt's destructive power.

Michael rarely shook his head at his favorite grandson, unable to hide his pride: "Lance, you haven't done enough homework. You know his real name is Vogt Pfister, but you don't know that he and George Swift It is a special friendship. If George Swift chokes up for him and Weber, the consequences will be disastrous."

Lance was taken aback!

George Swift? !

The honorary director of the British troupe of "The Phantom of the Opera", a well-known professor at the Royal Academy of Drama, and a big cow in the British theater world, George Swift?

Lance knew that Vogt was from a rich family like Pfister, but he didn't expect Vogt to get involved with someone like George Swift!

So Vogt held back afterwards, not because he couldn't, but because he didn't want to?

It has to be said that Lance re-examined his attitude towards Vogt because of this.

Treating a person who has everything and chasing his dream is completely different from treating a person who has nothing and dreams and survival are equal.Lance is an excellent agent, and he has to admit, the former is trickier.But at the same time, the former represents a different style, allowing you to focus on your career more purely.

This led to more patience with Vogt--more patience always needed with a young boy--and no longer complaining about his grandfather's repeated interruptions to his work.

"Actually, you can just tell me, 'Voger, take this show', without saying so much." Vogt couldn't help but say.

"You have to know what might happen to you after you make a decision." Lance disagreed with his thoughts, "And, I'm sure you're not as obedient as a puppet. Instead of being at a loss when the time comes, it's better to think about it beforehand."

"That's your job!" Vogt sat up straight, his amber eyes sparkling, "I, already, paid, paid!"

According to the contract, the King's Theater compensated him a total of one hundred thousand dollars in liquidated damages, which reached Vogt's account at a rare speed!Vogt asked Kevin to immediately transfer 20% of the signing fee to wma and Lance's accounts.

Finally, he didn't need to be short-handed, and Vogt suddenly felt like turning over, and his tail was so proud that he was about to raise his head.

Lance has several big clients in his hand, and his income is even higher than that of first-line stars in good times. His sea-blue eyes do not reveal any extra emotions, but he is unaware of the cautiousness that Vogt just raised in his heart. Unknowingly disappeared.

"Well, great." He smiled formulaically. "Let me remind you, Peston, this is an audition, and it doesn't mean you've got the part. Now, sit back and listen to me."

"Okay." Vogt crossed his legs and shook his head in displeasure, "Say it."

"The role you need to fight for is Ennis Delmar, the leading actor, an introverted and depressed man..." Speaking of this, Lance glanced at Vogt.The character's personality is almost the opposite of Vogt's.Vogt is the man who can make the phantom of gloomy inferiority and despair into a king.

"Continue." Vogt looked sideways at Lance who stopped suddenly, and gestured.

Lance asked uneasy: "Are you sure there is no problem, this role?"

"I haven't played it, I don't know." Vogt said honestly, "Of course, I think Jack Twist is more suitable for me, but I can't play one..." He made a grimace: "I can't help it... ..." Jack Twist, another actor in "Brokeback Mountain", maintains an underground gay relationship with Ennis Del Mar.

"How do you know that Jack Twist is one?" For the sake of confidentiality, the script used for the audition only had an outline and a short line.In this scene, Jack and Ennis talked about his "cheating", and Ennis went from pretending to be nonchalant to angry to crying and collapsing.In this short paragraph, Jack's strong and angry performance is more like a top.Lance does not discriminate against homosexuals, but he has not been exposed to much, and some cannot understand.

"Don't ask me, I just know," Vogt said.

Lance had to be relegated to the puzzling category of "kind-of-kind intuition."
