Chapter 21: Hollywood Movie Shooting Site
The profession of lawyer is a very respected profession in the United States.
It is also a very hostile profession.
He always ranks in the top three in the "ideal employment list" of families across the United States.
In 2018, the top three on this list were: Wall Street workers, lawyers, and doctors.
But it also ranks top in the "most popular career list" across the country.
Frank Austin.
That's such a lawyer.
He is a employed by West Germany-Austin Law Firm and is the general manager of the Los Angeles division of the law firm and a barrister.
West Germany-Austin Law Firm is a large law firm with strong rankings across the United States.
As the Los Angeles director of this law firm, Frank Austin is very busy.
There are no more than 500 lawyers like him in the United States.
The lowest annual income of these 500 lawyers is more than US$5 million.
The lawyer with the highest income has a net worth of US$1.5 billion.
Frank is not yet able to reach that level.
He is working on top 200 lawyers in the United States.
Today Frank took on a job.
He was unwilling to come to this job because this level of legal and legal aid was a trivial matter for him.
As a lawyer who specializes in serving the truly rich, law firms often receive this kind of legal aid service.
The demands of the rich are strange.
Sometimes they ask lawyers to try their best to search for regulations so that they can legally raise an African hyena in places where domestication is prohibited.
Sometimes they want to find a place where the leaves are prohibited from flying, so that lawyers can find services that can allow them to fly leaves in public without punishment.
All kinds of strange demands.
It is related to the reputation of lawyers and lawyers. As long as the case is followed, even if there is a strange request, lawyers must try their best to meet it.
Often, the younger the rich and shallow the foundations are, the more strange the requirements for legal aid will be.
This level of legal aid and legal counseling services, large and powerful law firms generally only send young people in their companies.
For those young people who just graduated and can get a monthly salary of US$180,000, what they have to pay must be equal to what they get.
But in the end he had to accompany his employer.
There are two reasons.
The first reason is that he has just hired as the legal counsel for the employer's company, and the annual consultant fee of $200,000 is not in vain.
The second reason is that the employer is willing to increase his legal aid services by 10% based on his hourly salary.
Anyway, I have to work. Even if it’s trivial, what’s so great about taking a trip for the fragrant green paper?
Frank Austin, driving his Maserati President, followed his employer to the outskirts of Los Angeles, California, on the west coast of the United States, which is surrounded by mountains and waters and has a pleasant scenery.
There is also a name here.
It's called Hollywood.
The employer is very young, about the same age as Frank's own son.
But his son is still studying at Stanford University.
And his employer has already established an investment company.
He can still afford to drive a sports car like Ferrari F12. Obviously, he is either a rich second generation or a lucky speculator.
Although Frank Austin can afford a Ferrari sports car, this does not conform to his steady status as a lawyer.
He won't buy it for his son.
want to?
Yes, you can graduate and become a real lawyer, and make money to buy it yourself!
Following the employer, he twisted his left and walked through the streets of Hollywood for a while.
Finally stopped in front of a shooting factory.
Such shooting factories are often simple to arrange, but all kinds of props are very complete.
From the simplest sets, art props, to the popular green screen and blue screen shooting in recent years, you will all have them.
Some small independent film teams are filming some indoor scenes and have no funds to find real office buildings.
You will shoot in this kind of shooting factory.
Frank Austin didn't know what his employer would do when he brought him to this kind of shooting factory.
Did you fall in love with some Hollywood stars?
Want to sign that star into his company?
Frank speculated.
He only saw the employer standing in front of the shooting factory and making another phone call.
Then he said to him, "Lawyer, let's go in. It will be up to you later."
"This is my duty."
Frank's calm Tao.
The two walked into the shooting factory.
Photographing in the factory.
This is a tall factory building, about a few hundred square meters wide.
The middle position is arranged into a boxing ring, with several mattresses placed on the boxing ring.
There are several white beds under the boxing ring.
There are more than a dozen people in it now.
Two of them were sitting naked in the boxing ring to rest.
Among the remaining people, several were checking some shooting equipment, recording equipment, as well as lighting equipment.
Another man with glasses and a hat was holding a baton and shouting to direct something.
I just looked at the set in the boxing ring and the words of the filming staff next to me.
Thinking of this here is Hollywood, which is the shooting factory inside Hollywood. People who come in outside may think that this is just a simple movie and shooting scene.
It may be filming youthful and passionate films related to boxing, modern action fighting films, or boxing documentaries or the like.
There is nothing strange about this in Hollywood.
But when it comes to the white padding in the boxing ring, the two "famous" actors who often show their faces in some kind of American film.
You will know that the filming filming in the factory will not be as simple as you imagined.
Moreover, the shooting process seemed to have temporarily stopped due to some special circumstances.
Well, it's a special situation.
Because the heroine of the movie was before the filming began.
For some unknown reason.
Hiding.
Hiding in the sturdy iron door cement bathroom in the shooting factory, he refused to come out.
So, the actress's agent and some of the film's staff.
The actress is being "friendly" persuaded.
"Fella! Can't you come out? We signed the contract!"
"If you don't cooperate with the shooting, you will violate the contract! Pay a penalty for liquidated damages! $500,000!"
"If you don't pay compensation, you'll be in jail!"
Chapter completed!
