Domination in America, Starting from being a Boxing Champion Chapter 371: Jennifer’s Choice

Los Angeles, tropolitan Area, the sun is shining bright.

In a common apartnt on Seventh Street, Jennifer Lawrence was sitting barefoot in a hammock, wearing a tank top and shorts, looking at a phone number on her cell phone, hesitating for a mont.

She had planned to find Link and talk about the contract face to face.

During her film shoot in Paris, she had lived with Link for over twenty days and had gotten to know him fairly well; despite his being sowhat of a flirt, his character was quite good.

Discussing this matter face to face with Link and obtaining his commitnt would make her feel more at ease.

But Link was too busy, directing her to contact a lady, Ms. Catherine, from Palm Beach agency.

This made her hesitate, pondering whether to wait for his return or to contact this Ms. Catherine first.

"Jennifer!"

Her cousin and agent Clausen strode in, holding a docunt with an excited smile on her sun-reddened face, "The contract is signed; the role is yours, with a base salary of 200,000 US Dollars."

"That quick?"

Jennifer took the acting contract and looked at it.

Accompanying it was the thick script of "X-n: First Class," which included the responsibilities and obligations of the production side and the actors, as well as clauses about the salary and other terms.

With this contract, as long as she did not break any rules specified within it during the filming period, the role would be hers, and no one could take it away.

"Yes, when I went to sign the contract, the people from Fox Films said that you, Michael Fassbender, and Jas McAvoy were among the first batch to get the roles, and they were also surprised that the production team made the decision so quickly to assign you the role," Clausen excitedly said.

Jennifer flipped through the contract.

Previously, Link had ssaged her saying that Fox Films had decided to give her the role, but she hadn’t paid much attention at that ti. rely over two hours later, a call had co from the "X-n" audition team congratulating her on passing the audition and getting the role of Mystique.

At that ti, she speculated Link might be involved, but wasn’t sure, feeling that her audition performance was also quite good. Now, hearing Clausen’s words, she was certain that her success in securing the role must have been helped by Link.

Thinking of Link, Jennifer felt sowhat powerless.

Link, at twenty-one, just a year older than her, had already amassed a fortune of several hundred million dollars, owned companies like Link Music, and had nurous connections in the entertainnt industry.

It was also because she understood this that she had seriously considered signing with Palm Beach agency after receiving Link’s invitation.

But as it was a decision that could affect her future, possibly for a lifeti, she could not take it lightly.

"Jennifer, what’s wrong, is there sothing wrong with the contract?" Clausen asked.

Jennifer shook her head.

She ntioned the invitation from Link to join the Palm Beach agency.

Clausen was her elder cousin by ten years and had co to Hollywood to be a model assistant and agent after graduating from college. She was quite familiar with the entertainnt industry and had been Jennifer’s guide in the circle.

"Palm Beach agency? Link agreed to pay your penalty fee? And a signing bonus of 1 million? Really?" Clausen asked in surprise.

Jennifer nodded and confird it was true.

"That sounds very good, what are you hesitating about?" Clausen said.

"Do you really think it’s good? I’ve never heard of Palm Beach agency; it must be a new agency. Would going to a new agency be better than staying with the current one?"

Jennifer got down from the hammock, poured two glasses of iced soda, and handed one to Clausen.

"It’s normal for an actor not to have heard of Palm Beach agency, but I know about the company."

Clausen pulled up a rattan chair and sat down, then introduced the situation at Palm Beach Talent Agency.

Established in 2008, the agency primarily handled actor managent. Currently, it had only two artists under its label, Link and Emma Stone.

"Emma Stone?"

Jennifer knew Emma Stone, who was a year older than her and also a non-academic grassroots actress. In the 2007 cody ’Too Bad’, both competed for a role nad ’Jules’, and she lost to Emma Stone.

Until last year, Emma Stone had only played supporting female roles in several low-budget campus codies, similar to her, not very famous.

But since the second half of last year, Emma Stone had first starred in the campus cody ’Scandal Plan’, produced by Warner’s subsidiary Screen Gems.

Then, she co-starred with A-list actors Steve Carell and Ryan Gosling in the movie ’Crazy Stupid Love’ as the female lead, and was also one of the leading actresses in the ongoing won-thed movie ’Bridesmaids’. It was said that she had several scripts in hand and was not short of roles to play.

Currently, ’Scandal Plan’ was undergoing pre-release promotional activities, and Emma Stone’s appearances in the dia had increased, earning her a spot as ’one of the most noteworthy actresses of the year’ by ’Vanity Fair’.

In this regard, Link’s Palm Beach Talent Agency was indeed impressive.

"Emma Stone is a heavily promoted actress by Palm Beach Talent, with a clear upward trajectory, and there’s sothing else you might not have noticed," Clausen continued.

Emma Stone managed to beco the leading actress in ’Scandal Plan’ because the film was invested by Palm Beach Films, which was reportedly also founded by Link.

"Link is a billionaire, made a fortune from a record deal, made tens of millions in minutes on the boxing ring, and certainly doesn’t lack money. This also ans Palm Beach Films is well-funded. Because of this, many actors, especially actresses, want to join Palm Beach Talent through this connection, but Palm Beach doesn’t accept submitted resus. They primarily invite talent, so no one has succeeded yet," Clausen explained.

Clausen looked at her, "Jennifer, Link personally inviting you to join Palm Beach shows he values you, and I think it’s a good opportunity."

Jennifer thought about it and felt that joining Palm Beach wouldn’t be bad, considering her relationship with Link was likely better than at IMG Models.

IMG Talent was her current agency, founded when she and her mother visited New York when she was 14. Discovered by an IMG scout then, she was over 5’7", attractive, and suited to modeling.

After convincing her parents and finishing all her high school courses within two years, she joined IMG Talent, modeled for a few months, but was more interested in acting. Through the company’s channels, she gradually took on roles, and this year gained recognition from her roles in the low-budget artistic films ’Burning Plain’ and ’Winter’s Bone’.

However, IMG Talent’s main business was model managent, with limited resources in the entertainnt industry, which also limited the support they provided. This led to her loss to Christine Stewart, who was less skilled in acting, in the third round auditions for the lead in ’Twilight’ in 2008.

Last year, Christine skyrocketed to fa with ’Twilight’, becoming a teenage idol and an A-list actress.

To say she wasn’t envious would be impossible.

She had considered switching to another agency, like CAA, William Morris Endeavor W, or United Talent Agency UTA, all top-tier agencies, but it was difficult for soone of her level of fa. Besides, smaller agencies couldn’t compete with IMG.

Palm Beach Talent seed to have better influence in the film circle than IMG.

Realizing this, Jennifer told Clausen that Link had ssaged her and asked her to contact a woman nad Catherine. She was now hesitating whether to wait a few days to talk to Link or to et Catherine now.

"Catherine? Is it Catherine Baker?" Clausen asked.

"Link didn’t say, just ntioned that she was the head of Palm Beach Talent."

Jennifer checked the ssage on her phone and said.

"Then it must be, Catherine is Link’s mother. Talking to her is the sa as talking to Link."

"Catherine is Link’s mother?" Jennifer asked in surprise.

She looked at the phone number, montarily unsure of what to decide.

If Catherine was rely the general manager of Palm Beach, it would be fine to call her directly, but the situation was different since she was Link’s mother.

Because she and Link had been rumored to have a close relationship,

Facing Catherine might feel like eting a boyfriend’s parents, although she and Link were not in a romantic relationship, it still psychologically burdened her.
