When he returned to Los Angeles, Murphy went to the Actors Union again. The project "Hard Fruit Candy" was too inconspicuous from investment to production company. In just one day, no actor left his application information.

Murphy also decided to publish recruitment information in the newspaper after he went back. Just like the staff he had recruited, there were also many actors in Los Angeles who did not join the union organization.

Then, he took Jessica Chastain to the Directors' Union, Photographers' Union and Screenwriters' Union, and wanted to ask about the possibility of joining, especially the latter. The screenwriters who joined can register scripts in the union and also check scripts registered by others, which can avoid many unnecessary troubles.

Indeed, he can register copyright in the copyright office like "Hard Fruit Candy", but that would cost a lot of money. Although the screenwriter's union would charge for registered projects, it was relatively cheaper.

Price directly affects Murphy's current choice.

Unfortunately, Murphy went for a trip. Organizations like the Directors Union have a low entry threshold, but they also have certain access requirements. Newcomers like him are simply unqualified.

However, this trip was not in vain, and Murphy understood some cognitive misunderstandings caused by cultural differences and translation issues.

First of all, trade unions and associations are not the same as each other.

The so-called trade union refers to an organization that unites people from a certain industry or type of work to fight investors in order to improve their benefits, improve working conditions, and protect their rights such as minimum wage and medical insurance; the association is a non-profit organization composed of professionals in a certain field that aims to communicate culturally, information sharing, education and scientific research.

The difference between the two is that the union is for all practitioners, with a low threshold for joining, while the association may learn to be more like a senior club.

The former producers' association, directors' association and actors' association in Murphy's cognition were actually not associations, but trade unions.

Although the union can apply for joining as long as it meets its very low basic conditions, Murphy returns disappointed. For example, the photographer union he wants to join, which stipulates that he only needs to obtain 100 days of paid photography experience in non-union film production within three years, or work in union production for 30 days, to apply...

Murphy was obviously not qualified.

The plan to join the formal organization of Hollywood was temporarily dispelled. After Murphy published an actor recruitment advertisement in several local Los Angeles newspapers the next day, he began to schedule the preparations for this small crew. He rented photography equipment with Jessica Chastain, and purchased special tomato sauce for plasma with props Mia Sucre, and went to the San Fernando Valley with the setter Sunny Clegg to inspect the interior of the house...

A lot of funds were cut out from Murphy's account. This kind of days when he could only make money and less and less money also made him live like a year.

During this period, more than a dozen actors called and Murphy conducted a preliminary interview at Midton Cafe, but the results were all very unsatisfactory. The actors either had inappropriate appearance conditions or had poor acting skills.

Most of the dramas in this project mainly take place between two characters, and inevitably have relatively high requirements for the actors.

No matter how Murphy's project progresses, Hollywood is operating on its own existing track.

The Actors Union has more than 100,000 members, and its office on the West Coast is located in the Hollywood area. A large number of actors come in and out every day. Many of them will stop in front of the recruitment bulletin board to check it out, hoping to find the best opportunity for them.

After all, the actors who are famous all over the United States and have received sluggish actors are among the few. Most of them are like Murphy, fighting hard for their dreams.

There is a type of people who are not in this ranks and their starting point is much higher than that of ordinary people.

A girl with short golden brown hair, carrying a big file bag, walked into the acting staff union. She was not old and looked fifteen or sixteen years old. Unlike white women who were born precocious, the girl was born with a baby face, which looked playful and cute. With her constant inciting big eyes, she seemed like a girl in Vladimir Nabokov's paintings appeared in the world.

"Uncle Julian!"

When I walked past the recruitment bar and came to the front of an office, the girl looked back dissatisfiedly, and her mouth was almost pouting to the sky, "Can you be quicker?"

Her voice was crisp and pleasant, with an unusually obvious London accent.

Not far behind, an old man with a bare forehead had just separated and gathered in front of the recruitment bar, walking towards this side panting, "Carry, you are walking too fast, you have to consider the old man's body."

The girl scratched her short hair, "You have to understand my urgent mood, you know, I have wanted to be an actor since I was a child, but my stubborn parents wanted me to go to college instead of acting. Now I finally took the opportunity to come to Los Angeles to be an exchange student..."

Her eyes kept rolling, "You finally took the time to help me register as a member of the Actors Union. I'm very excited."

"Hurry up! Hurry up!" The girl looked like she was not anxious.

Julian Ferros finally caught up with the girl and took her into the office. He is a veteran actor and is quite famous in Hollywood. With his recommendation, the girl joined the union without much effort and became one of the relatively secure actors.

Things are so unfair.

Leaving the office, Julian Fellos said to the girl walking beside him, "The union can guarantee your working conditions, guarantee minimum wage and medical insurance..."

The girl is smart and immediately touches, "but only if I can get an actor job."

Julian Fellows nodded and asked as he walked, "What type of character do you like?"

With the care of his relative, it is not difficult for a girl to get some small roles in Hollywood.

"Well, I have to think about it..." The girl's big eyes flashed, "I think Lolita is very good."

The answer was completely beyond Julian Fellows' expectations. He turned his head and looked over there with a little surprise. The girl immediately realized that she had said something wrong and quickly added, "Uncle Julian, I'm just kidding you."

She quickly changed the subject, pointed to the crowd gathered in the recruitment column in front, and asked, "What are they doing?"

"Many crews will post recruitment information here," Julian Ferros explained briefly, "but they are all less famous projects."

The girl seemed to have not heard the following sentence, and she jumped out of her mouth with a crisp and clean voice, "That's great, I'm going to see it too."

Her baby face was full of excitement, and she ran directly to the other side, not caring about the old man who was slightly staggering when walking.

When I ran to the recruitment bar, the girl realized that there were too many people here and couldn't see clearly from the outside from a distance. She wanted to get closer, but couldn't get in at all.

Just on the notice board in front, there were recruitment notices densely covered. I just registered as a member of the Actors Union. The little girl was the most urgent and wanted to find a suitable role to try her usual praise in the school theater troupe.

She has been interested in acting since she was a child, and many people say that she is a genius in acting, even an old actor like Julian Ferros who is following behind is no exception.

"I want to see it, I want to see it, really, why are there so many people?"

The girl pouted, her big eyes flashed and turned around, and suddenly became brighter. She deliberately changed into a childish voice, "Hey, hey, pay attention!"

Without anyone to take care of her, she was not discouraged and continued to shout, "The casting director of the Spielberg crew is recruiting people in the yard to the west!"

This immediately attracted the attention of many people. Some people even turned to look west, but the West Courtyard of the Actors Union was separated from here with two corner corridors, so it was impossible to see there.

Someone asked immediately, "Little girl, are you saying true?"

"How is this possible for Spielberg's crew..."

"Are you lying?"

Hearing these messy sounds, the girl took out her cutest expression, carried a pair of small hands on her back, blinked her big, and said extremely cutely, "I am a good student, how could I lie?"

At this age and like this, even steel will dissolve it...

"Let's go and have a look..."

"I think it's true."

Obviously, many people chose to believe in the girls and walked towards the west courtyard one after another.

Although many people were unmoved, after leaving those people, the place was no longer so crowded. The girl easily got in front and looked up at these recruitment notices. She suddenly heard a voice next to her.

"Are you an actor too?"

The girl followed the sound and saw that it was a man with brown curly hair, about twenty-two or three years old, and she looked very handsome. Especially when he looked here, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, which looked very charming.

"Yes!" The girl gently tapped her pointed chin, "I just registered to be a member of this place."

The man smiled even more clearly, "Dave is right. The cuter the girl is, the more lie he will be."

"What?" the girl looked at him in surprise, as if she didn't understand what those words meant at all, "What did you say? Who lied to me?"

Naturally, her face was very innocent, and she had a curious expression, as if she was surprised who the man was talking about.

"The acting skills are very good." The man seemed to have discovered something very interesting and couldn't help laughing, "Especially for your age."

"Hmph!"

The girl wrinkled her nose, like all the people who were seen through by lying, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and was a little angry with the man next to her. Her eyes turned to the recruitment column opposite and saw a recruitment notice.

"Stanton Studio's "Hard Fruit Candy" project seeks actresses aged 14-16. It requires cute appearance and a certain acting foundation. It is best to be familiar with the work "Lolita"..."

Seeing this, the girl couldn't help but swallow her mouth and quickly remembered the contact information. When she wanted to continue reading other recruitment notices, the man next to her spoke again.

"The people you deceived are back," he reminded.

"Ah?" The girl looked back and saw many people coming quickly from the west, not caring about looking at other things, turning around and crawling out. The brown-haired man looked at her back and his eyes were also placed on the recruitment notice of Stanton Studio.

Very beautiful and cute little girl, isn't it?
