Perhaps Angelina Jolie did a bad job in other aspects, but her credit was good. However, in just over a dozen days, she introduced a good performance training school to Matthew. Similar institutions in Los Angeles are everywhere, and most of them are the types that can be accessed by paying money, but this one has a certain entry threshold.

According to Vanessa, the training school is called Los Angeles School of Performing Arts, which mainly cooperates with the Innovation Artist Agency (CAA) and William Morris Endeavour Agency (WME) to train actors for the two companies.

Actors who are not from these two agency companies need to be introduced by people with certain influence in the industry before they can be accepted.

For example, Matthew, without Angelina Jolie's introduction, it is very difficult to enter a performance training school of this level.

Just like where he lived, there were many training institutions, most of which were cheating money, and only a few were truly reliable.

After getting off the car in North Hollywood, Matthew asked casually, and without much effort, he found this training institution called the Los Angeles School of Performing Arts.

"Hello, sir."

At the open door of the school, a security officer stopped Matthew, "This is a private territory."

"Hello," Matthew said quickly, "I'm here to sign up for the performance training class!"

The security officer glanced at Matthew, took out a list, and asked politely, "Can you know your name?"

Matthew replied, "Matthew Horner."

The security officer looked on the list and nodded, "Please come in, Mr. Horner." He pointed to the road again, "turn left in front and go straight two hundred feet. The registration office is on the first floor, and you can see it when you enter."

Others were very polite, and Matthew was also very polite, "Thank you!"

According to the doorman's words, he quickly found the registration office. As soon as he entered the registration office, he was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang and looked down at the number of the angel agency.

"Sorry." Matthew smiled apologetically at a middle-aged woman who was about to receive him. "I'll answer the phone first."

He walked out of the registration office and pressed the answer button, "Hello, this is Matthew Horner."

"Hello, Matthew."

A somewhat familiar crisp female voice rang out on the phone, "I am Helen Hermann."

Matthew immediately remembered the smart and capable female agent he had met.

The other party spoke very quickly, "I have a job that suits you. If you are interested, come to the company tomorrow at 10 o'clock and set off on time at 11 o'clock. Remember to bring your ID, luggage and change clothes!"

Although he didn't know what job it was, Matthew agreed immediately. For him, a young actor, he only had the job to choose people, and where would he choose the job?

After hanging up the phone, he went back to the registration office and said to the middle-aged woman, "Hello, I'm Matthew Horner, I received the notice to come here to sign up today."

The middle-aged woman searched through a stack of information, found a thin stack, and said, "Look, is it written on it right?"

Matthew took it and looked through it. They were all the basic information they filled in in "The Soul-Escaped Girl". "No problem."

"Yes." The middle-aged woman handed over a form, "Fill in it."

Fortunately, the form needs to be filled in some simple things, otherwise Ma Xiuzhen would be in a dilemma.

Perhaps Angelina Jolie said hello and everything went smoothly. When Matthew filled out the form, the middle-aged woman said, "The performance course lasts for six months, and there are no less than twenty-two hours of study and practice every week. During this period, the school will also provide you with audition opportunities. If you perform well during your studies, the school will also recommend it to major agency companies to win you a formal actor contract."

Hearing this, Matthew nodded slightly, as if he was very formal.

But next, the middle-aged woman talked about the point, "The cost is 6,000 US dollars in total!"

Matthew immediately raised his head, the number far exceeds the estimate.

The middle-aged woman's next words made him feel relieved, "The fee can be paid in installments."

I think so, those who can come here to study are probably all small actors. For these people, 6,000 US dollars is definitely not a small number. Instalments can reduce the financial pressure on many people.

"I will pay two thousand dollars today," the middle-aged woman continued, "I will pay two thousand dollars before school starts in May, and the last two thousand dollars will be paid in September."

Matthew calculated and received $5,500 in deals with Angelina Jolie, the crew of "The Soul-Escaped Girl" was paid $180, and the Red Penguin Company's first month's salary was less than $1,800.

The total revenue during this period is $7,400.

In terms of expenditure, the rent for half a year is US$2,400, and then the living expenses and various expenses in the past month are basically saved, but he has also spent a lot of money on buying a large number of professional books and newspapers to improve his reading ability.

Currently, less than four thousand dollars remain in his bank card.

There is no problem in paying the first fee, and the second fee will be in May, when there will be revenue from Red Penguin Company. As long as you save some, there will be no big problem.

Someone came to sign up one after another, and he even saw a few familiar figures in it. Maybe he had seen them in the movie, but Matthew couldn't name them and had no interest in talking for the time being. After completing the registration, he went to the Finance Office upstairs to swipe his card to pay the first fee of 2,000 US dollars, and received a textbook. Then he left the Los Angeles Performing Arts School and waited for the start of school in May.

Back in Ximu District, Matthew bought two newspapers and went straight into the apartment building. He didn't have to go to work in the Red Penguin Company tonight. He had no plans to go out and planned to have a good rest.

Upon going up the second floor, he opened the door and just walked into the room, he found an envelope on the ground near the door. He picked it up and opened it and looked at it. His original good mood immediately covered a layer of haze.

The debt collector went to the doorstep!

Sitting on the collapsed sofa in the middle, Matthew looked back and forth several times. Although he didn't understand it very much, he guessed that this was probably the so-called lawyer's letter, which also had the signature of the lawyer of Chris Walker who had called him twice. The content of the letter was similar to the phone number, listing the terms of the breach of contract and urging a penalty of 50,000 US dollars.

"These guys!" Matthew threw away the lawyer's letter casually, "I can actually find my place!"

After thinking about it, it was not particularly surprising. After all, the one who left behind real information before, and he himself did not deliberately conceal his whereabouts. In such a modern society, it should not be difficult to find someone.

"We should also consult a lawyer."

After all, he breached the contract first, and he couldn't avoid such a thing, "See whether an out-of-court settlement can be reached."

Among the Hollywood movies I have watched, if an out-of-court settlement is reached, the general price will be much less than the plaintiff’s pursuit, but Matthew still frowned in his worries. Even if the crew of "Tao Tarot" and the studio behind the crew agreed to give the liquidated damages a half, it would still be as much as $25,000.

When the lawyer sent a letter to the door, Matthew also felt urgency, and at the same time he felt more and more poor. If he had $100,000, he would throw $50,000 directly onto the group of cheating guys to see if they were still in dispersed!

The feeling of losing money is really uncomfortable.

Matthew made the decision and took time to consult a lawyer after he had gone to Angel Brokerage tomorrow and saw what specific job he had.

In the following time, he picked up the book and read it, making full use of his limited time to increase his capital. After running the next morning, he changed into his only formal outfit, brought his luggage he had packed last night, and took the bus to the Angel Show Agency in North Hollywood again.

"Hello……"

As soon as he entered the door, a young girl came over and asked, "Are you an actor who came here to apply for a job?"

"Yes." Matthew said politely, "My name is Matthew Horner, and I received a notice from Miss Helen Herman yesterday."

"Please sit there." The girl wrote it on the notebook in her hand, "Should wait for a while."

Matthew entered the first floor lobby, which was completely different from the last time he came. There were more than 60 people sitting scattered on the benches in the lobby. Without exception, these people were all young and strong men. Some of them even met each other and whispered to discuss.

Obviously, these are all extras like him.

"Hi, Matthew!"

A man suddenly stood up and waved to him, "Here, come here!"

Turning his head and looking at it, Matthew recognized the face as young as him, the porter he helped last time, as if he was named Michael Sheehn.

Matthew immediately walked over and said hello, "Hi, Michael."

"Call me Mike." Michael Sheean asked Matthew to sit down and said, "I was wondering just now if I would meet you."

"I haven't received a role in a long time." Matthew shrugged, "Come and try your luck."

He asked again, "How are you doing recently?"

"Old look." Michael Sheehan sighed, "Fuck the porter, and then go to some small crews to serve as background boards."

Matthew smiled, "Take it slow, there will always be a day when it will improve."

This Michael Sheen is in good shape, tall and strong, with brown hair and blue eyes. If he goes to film and television works of youth idols, Matthew thinks he should have a future.

However, this is just his own feeling.

"Yeah!" Michael Sheehn nodded vigorously, "I have been in Los Angeles for three years, and I must make a name for myself! I will definitely become a big star!"

"Waiting for you to become famous." Matthew joked casually, "Don't forget to support me."

Michael Sheeon laughed.

Pa-pa-pa-

Suddenly someone clapped his palms in the hall. Matthew and Michael Sheen looked at the stairs together. Helen Herman, who received them last time, was already standing there.
