019 The director comes to the door

Gu Luobei can sincerely swear to God that when he first saw Eden Hudson, this guy was definitely an iceberg. The man with expressionless face in front of him and the content of the conversation was extremely gossipy, and it was definitely not Eden Hudson he knew at the beginning. To be precise, in front of strangers, friends, and good friends, Eden Hudson is an iceberg, and he may not be able to spit out a word for a few hours. But in front of a true best friend, although Eden Hudson is still an iceberg, the gossip in his bones immediately boils. There must be an active volcano under this iceberg!

Eden Hudson is Gu Luobei's roommate and only met him when he came to Harvard University. As a top student in the law school, the famous reputation of the British Swedish mixed-race Eden Hudson's iceberg handsome guy is definitely well-known. His deep facial features, sharp eyes, and aura that is not close to others makes Eden Hudson known as the number one handsome guy in the law school. With this reputation, even if Gu Luobei tells others that Eden Hudson is a gossip man, no one will believe it. Should Eden Hudson be black-bellied or indifferent? Maybe both are compatible.

However, Gu Luobei, who is already used to it, replied casually, "I just met, I just met." Then he continued, "Why are you here?"

Eden Hudson knew that when it comes to women, Gu Luobei disdained to lie. He said he had just met, so he must have met just now. For example, his female companion Heidi Montgomery today said that he was just a "female companion". So even if Heidi Montgomery had a hot fight with other men, Gu Luobei didn't care at all. So Eden Hudson didn't continue asking, "I came here to support you and prepared to leave. I heard something interesting, come and share it with you." The person who supported him was naturally the opening performance of a melancholy mood. In fact, in addition to gossip, Eden Hudson's iceberg is indeed very iceberg. He is not enthusiastic about social activities and nods to ordinary friends. If Gu Luobei had not been a roommate with him and had been together for more than two years, the two would probably not have become friends.

"There is a young man blocking you at the door of the dance. He has been asking if he knows where you are." Eden Hudson's face was still calm. If there wasn't some gloating in his eyes that revealed his emotions at the moment, he would have been an iceberg. "At twenty-five or six years old, he looks quite strong, with a short hair and a hammer face, he looks quite honest, but his eyes turn quickly is probably a flexible mind." It is not without reason that Eden Hudson's blackness is definitely a swear word, but his words are impossible to refute.

Just by hearing Eden-Hudson's simple description, Gu Luobei had a rough impression in his head, shook his head, "I don't know."

"That's probably Montgomery's suitor." Although he was Gu Luobei's good friend, Eden Hudson was obviously happy about Gu Luobei's "disaster", and then calmly said the second half of the speculation, "I should settle the score with you."

After saying that, Eden Hudson seemed to be fine, and turned around and patted Gu Luobei on the shoulder to express his encouragement. Then he said, "By the way, the copyright of your two songs has been registered, and the copyright certificate has arrived at the dormitory in the afternoon."

In the United States, copyright is very important. Gu Luobei plans to send the two songs "Last" and "Haidao" to various companies to try his luck. Although it may not be successful, in order to prevent a record company from directly taking it for himself, he decided to register the copyright and then send it to the record company. Since registration of copyright also requires a fee, Gu Luobei finally registered only the two best songs.

The copyright registration procedure is also very simple. Send the application form, copy of the work and registration fee to the US Copyright Office in Washington. If there is no major error, you can issue a registration certificate. Generally, it takes four to six months. The emails sent in March should be here in the past few days.

Gu Luobei has long been used to Eden Hudson's darkness, so he directly ignored the gloating in front and focused on the copyright issue behind him. "It's finally here. I'm planning to send the song to the record company these two days. Let's go back to the dormitory, and I'll talk to you about the Eagle Rock Music Festival."

Although the return-to-school dance party came and returned home in a bad mood, today I was in a good mood. Gu Luobei and Eden Hudson did not go back to the dance floor, but went back to the main road from behind and walked towards the dormitory. When passing by the door, the dance party inside was at a loss, so the door was very deserted. The man who surrounded Gu Luobei as Eden Hudson saw it at a glance.

The man also saw Gu Luobei and Eden Hudson at once. There was no one at the door. Gu Luobei and Eden Hudson were already attractive, so it was not uncommon to be seen.

The man walked up quickly, obviously he finally saw Gu Luobei and was definitely unwilling to give up this opportunity. He was gloating just now, but at this time Eden-Hudson stood a little forward and fought side by side with Gu Luobei. If the other party was really here to make trouble, he would definitely face it with Gu Luobei.

"Mr. Bell?" The other party's voice seemed to have some uncertainty, but after getting closer, he saw Gu Luobei nodding, and his voice became much more confident, "Hello, I am Richard Kelly, a director. I have contacted you through the American Actors' Union..."

"Are you a director?" Gu Luobei frowned slightly. How could a director wait for him at the door of the return-to-school dance? He is not a famous actor, so it makes sense to wait for Natalie Portman.

"Yes! I contacted your agent Mr. Teddy Bell two weeks ago. I hope you can participate in my movie interview, but you refused." Richard Kelly spoke very quickly and was very good at focusing on the key points. He could explain the problem clearly in just a few words.

Gu Luobei suddenly remembered that on the day he came back from Los Angeles, Teddy Bell mentioned this to him. At that time, because he was about to meet the professor again, the new semester began and he had no time to go to Los Angeles for an interview, so he directly asked Teddy Bell to push him. Unexpectedly, the other party was so persevering and came to Cambridge from Los Angeles.

"Are you sure this is an interview? Why do you feel like I'm a super big name? It's not you who interviewed me, but I interviewed you and let you come from Los Angeles." Gu Luobei's words made Richard Kelly laugh. From this smile, he could see that he breathed a sigh of relief and the atmosphere of the school that was also a college student. It was confirmed that it was not a "disaster", but a happy event. Eden Hudson's muscles also relaxed, but he still stood beside him with an iceberg-like face.

"Since you're here, then find a place to sit down and talk. No matter who interviews, you have to talk." Gu Luobei made the decision immediately and took Richard Kelly to the bar outside the school. Seeing that there was no good show, Eden Hudson didn't like social occasions and was not interested in the bar, he went back to the dormitory alone.

When I arrived at the "Hungry and Thirsty Student Bar" at the entrance of the school, the bustling bar on weekdays seemed a bit deserted today. People who liked the bar were at the back-school dance party at this time, and people who didn't like the bar were also at the back-school dance party.

Although the director came to the door and made any actor feel that it was a happy thing, Gu Luobei was obviously not flattered, but calmly confirmed Richard Kelly's identity - the identity certificate of the director's union, and also obtained the script handed over by Richard Kelly. It was not that Gu Luobei was too careful, but Richard Kelly? Gu Luobei really had no impression of the director's name.

As for the script that simply bound a stack of A4 printing paper, Gu Luobei just looked at the white cover with "Tony Dark" written on it. The name is plausible and it seems that he remembers the script, but he has no specific memory for a while. Gu Luobei did not focus on the script, but talked to Richard Kelly.

"Mr. Kelly, I have never appeared in any movies and TV series, and I even know that I have only a handful of people who have registered with the American Actors Union. I wonder how you know me?" Gu Luobei put the script on the table, as if he was not interested for the moment.

This made Richard Kelly's eyes flash. He didn't know that Gu Luobei refused the interview at will just because he didn't have time to go to Los Angeles. He took it for granted that Gu Luobei had no confidence in his director, who was only twenty-five years old, so he couldn't help but wonder how to convince the other party to read the script first.

Gu Luobei didn't know what Richard Kelly was thinking, but he didn't finish his words, "What's more, I, a newcomer with no qualifications, have no one thousand or eight hundred in Hollywood. Since I rejected your interview, you came to Boston in person. I was so flattered by such treatment." Although Gu Luobei said this in dialect, his eyes didn't mean anything, just being polite.

"Mr. Bell, I watched your performance on the stage of the Broadway "Cats" two weeks ago." Richard Kelly's words surprised Gu Luobei. He had never expected that it would be the stage of the Broadway. "After learning that you refused the interview, I also interviewed several young people in Hollywood. Unfortunately, I have never been able to find a suitable candidate. After hesitating, I still felt that you were very suitable for this role, so I came to Boston." Two weeks ago, Richard Kelly was in Los Angeles for a good time.

After two weeks of interview, I met more than a dozen young actors, but unfortunately I was not satisfied. This time I came to see Gu Luobei, which was also very determined. After all, it was usually the director interviewed actors, and now Gu Luobei, a new actor, still let him be interviewed at home, which is indeed very novel. This is Richard Kelly's last bet. If Gu Luobei doesn't work after the interview, although he will meet a few young people next week, as for the possibility, Richard Kelly doesn't have hope.

Although Richard Kelly said very shortly, the information was very large. Gu Luobei reacted immediately. Not to mention the script, Richard Kelly's sincerity alone is worthy of praise, and he is completely an actor rookie. Since others value it so much, what if they have an interview?
