Raising Dragons in Hollywood

Sammy is the youngest child in the Griffin family.

Because of his young age, he lived in the over-doting of his parents and the care and protection of his older brothers for a long time, which made his life too happy and smooth, thus possessing a certain natural and dull personality.The specific manifestation is that he is not wary of the friends he knows, he is usually too generous, and he doesn't care about anything.

So, when Ellie complains about 'the mask was eaten by Mikey'...

He really didn't have any thoughts in his mind, only a sigh of "Micky's appetite is quite good" emerged.

But Rossi didn't know what it was because of her psychology. Maybe it was the wind in her girlfriend's ears that finally worked, or maybe she just couldn't get used to it.

Anyway, after hanging up Ellie's phone, he asked abruptly: "How long do you plan to keep him?"

"What?" Sammy didn't respond at all.

"I mean Mikey, are you still raising him for the rest of your life?" Rossi pushed his glasses and said speechlessly.

Only then did Sami understand, but he retorted unhappily: "What kind of support? It's just friends helping each other."

He added indifferently (naughty) and replied: "Besides, I didn't do anything. I just provided a place to live and a few meals, and it doesn't cost anything."

"It costs nothing? Are you serious?"

Rossi couldn't help complaining: "Do you know how much he eats in one meal? I've never seen such a food bucket!"

"Hey! Be careful what you say, Mikey's my friend."

"He ate all the food in the fridge in one day, including my girlfriend's mask."

"Uh, he's a netizen."

"..."

Rosie rolled her eyes wide and wide toward the ceiling.

Then, he patted Sammy on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Dude, that's not how you help a friend. He can't stay at home and depend on you to support him all his life, even if you want to, maybe he won't (Mike: No No, I am willing). We have to find something for him to do, whether it is study or work, to have a spiritual sustenance and a life of his own. One must do something in this life, right? Otherwise, what is the point of living ?”

Sammy looked at him in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be a thinker."

——Is this the point?

Rossi took a deep breath angrily: "Thank you for the compliment."

Fortunately, Sammy was habitually slow and stupid in some matters, but he was open-minded about his friends' opinions.

He quickly admitted: "You have a point."

But this matter is completely bad news for Mai Qilong.

Long had a good life, why did he look for something to do?

'One has to do something, but the problem is...'

He really wanted a big roc to spread its wings, rush to the sky, and protested: "I am a dragon!"Have you ever seen a dragon go out to work?Shouldn't the dragon sleep comfortably on the countless huge piles of treasures, occasionally go hunting when hungry, and come back to continue sleeping, year after year.Unless those dragon slaying warriors who always like to bully dragons show up in groups to harass dragons, will they sleep until the end of time? '

Obviously, a dragon living in a human kingdom is not allowed to do this, he has to learn to do as the Romans do.

Especially after seeing his passport, Sami found that he was an adult the day he came to the United States, and suddenly thought that he should no longer take care of him as a minor.For this reason, he was also very annoyed that he hadn't thought carefully before, and he should have noticed this matter earlier.

Think about it, a foreigner (Dragon) who has just grown up, came to the US country where he was not familiar with, and took refuge in a strange netizen.In a short period of time, you may really dare not do anything. Even if you want to go out to find a job, you are very timid inside, right?

What's more, he had the experience of domestic violence before.So, I can only stay at home obediently all this time...

After thinking about it like this, Sammy immediately felt pity: "What a poor, introverted, well-behaved Cinderella boy!"

In order to make up for his mistakes, he enthusiastically helped Mikey find a job.

Mikey was reluctant, but he still pretended to be moved to thank him.

But he has been crying in the storm deep in his heart: 'No, no, the age on the passport is just written for the convenience of human social activities.I am only two hundred years old, I am still a baby, you humans are employing child labor. '

It's a pity that the Dragon Clan doesn't have a minor dragon protection law.

Even if there were, no meddling dragon would come to human society to enforce the law.

Therefore, the underage Charmander will soon go to work like a human.

Sammy efficiently found him a temporary job as an actor at Disney Parks.

Unexpectedly, Mikey's efficiency is also very high.

He was fired after less than a week at work, even before the probationary period.

Because he always overslept, was late every day, and quarreled with the children:

- Dragons are ugly, big and scary, not as good-looking as dolls.

——Nonsense, the dragon is beautiful!You are ugly, small and scary to dragons, you don't even have scales, you are so ugly!

This thing is going to kill me.

The director who was in charge of managing these actors yelled at him angrily: "Who do you think you are? Can you play big-name stars casually? Listen, don't make things difficult for yourself. If you can't do it, just don't do it. Do it, hurry up, and stop causing trouble for everyone!"

Mikey thought for a while, and suddenly nodded sincerely: "My friend, what you said is quite right!"

Then he turned and left.

--gone?

director:"……"

On the way back, the underage Charmander was still very angry.

It's not that he doesn't know what's good and what's wrong, and that he ungratefully resents Sammy for helping him find a job and ending his good life of eating and working, but that he feels that Longsheng is too rough.

Other juvenile dragons can eat, drink, play, and sleep under the protection of adult dragons. Only I have to go to the human kingdom to seek life.

And the reason for being reduced to this point is actually - because the scales are too beautiful, and they look too good-looking, which has aroused the covetousness of other dragons... It's really sad for the dragon's face, which makes the dragon feel sad.

Thinking of this, he felt that he was a secret cast of a pearl, and was let down by human beings. He began to whisper in his heart to his human friend Sami: "Do you know that there is a super beautiful dragon in your house? The happiest person in the world? How can you not cherish me? Oh, I forgive you! You have never seen my beautiful dragon prototype, you don’t know anything, you are just a round-faced fool who hates dragons Dwarf. Still slaying a dragon? When the dragon blows, you fly away, you know? Forget it, forget it, I forgive you."

At the same time, Sami's own affairs have not been going well, and he has not been able to deal with Mai Qilong's problem for the time being.

Disney executives couldn't figure out what to do with that cartoon.

Moreover, it is impossible for them to be entangled in this matter all the time, and there are other tasks to be busy. For example, the IP creation plan of "Rabbit Nana" is the current focus of work.

Sammy understands quite well. On the one hand, it has already invested a large amount of money, does not need to be modified, and has already determined to make money. It only needs a lot of publicity to sell a large amount of peripheral toys; on the other hand, it seems to have certain However, if you want to launch a short clay animation that requires re-investment, takes a certain amount of risk, and is uncertain about the market acceptance.

As long as they are normal people, they will choose the former, right?

But understanding is understanding, Sami is still very frustrated about this, and, with a heavy sense of responsibility, he apologizes to all members of his animation production team: "I'm sorry, you spent a lot of time and energy trying to help me, But I can only bring you a work that cannot be released."

The rookie animator Jack said indifferently: "But if it weren't for you, I wouldn't even have the opportunity to waste my time and energy."

Cinematographer Gavin, who suffers from a slight stutter, said as slowly as possible: "I, I had nothing to do, your animation, animation is very good."

Rossi is more calm and sensible.

He told Sammy directly: "What are you thinking? It's not your fault."

Failure didn't make Sammy sad...

But the understanding of his friends made him cry.

When Miqilong entered the door, he just saw his human sitting on the sofa wiping tears.

His mind was dazed, he rushed over in a hurry, and shouted incoherently: "Don't cry, I'll show you eating a hamburger! Although it's not a great skill, I can swallow a whole thing in one bite, which is impossible for humans! "

Everyone: "..."
