The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1036: Bones Countless
"But friends are friends and work is work, right?"

Anson said.

Always calm, always open-minded, always composed.

Christen shook her head repeatedly, her knees felt weak, and her whole body felt powerless. "No, I still can't do it. This makes me feel like we are lifeless robots."

"But we're not, are we?"

"Anson, why aren't you mad? Are you some kind of Virgin Mary?"

Anson chuckled. "Haha, let me make it clear that I am not. But..." He let out a long breath, "Maybe it's because I don't have any hope."

“If you have expectations, you will be disappointed. If you have disappointment, you will be despair. But if you have nothing, you won’t be hurt.”

A little bitter, a little sigh.

Anson thought that after all the things he had gone through in his past life, he should be as strong as steel and would not get hurt easily, but it was obvious that he still couldn't control himself.

Kristen's tongue also tasted bitter. "If it were you, what would you do?"

Anson had calmed down and looked at Christen again. "How can I miss the chance to replace my friend and become a villain?"

Christen looked helpless, "Anson, I'm serious."

Anson, "I'm serious too. I'll fight for it and do my best."

Kristen couldn't believe her ears.

Anson, "But I will tell my friends. I got this opportunity and I don't want to miss it. I know how important this opportunity is to him, but it is equally important to me. I am also eager to build an acting career. So, since the producer gave me an opportunity, I will not turn it down for my friends. I am not that great or that kind."

"Then we start a fair competition, hoping that the person who performs better will get the role, soar to fame, and start a career as an actor."

Kristen was dumbfounded. Obviously, she had never thought of such an option.

Anson shrugged slightly. "Then, you will be condemned by your friends as a white lotus, self-righteous, and dignified to say such shameless words."

"Some things don't sound noble just because they are spoken out. Putting personal interests before friendship is a fact, and then using beautiful words to package yourself. It's really that one person has taken all the credit."

"It's extremely immoral."

Kristen couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At the beginning, when Anson and James were competing for the role of "Spider-Man", the two of them talked it out and competed openly, and even joined the crew together as partners; but such situations are ultimately rare and are only ideal situations.

There is no way. Hollywood is a circle full of bones. Behind every glamorous and successful person are countless corpses and blood. In the face of interests, no matter it is an open conspiracy or a conspiracy, no matter it is face-to-face competition or a stab in the back, personal emotional hurt is inevitable.

The contradiction is still there and has not been resolved.

But Kristen finally came to realize that she could justifiably refuse such an opportunity, but she couldn't condemn Jack for trying to seize it.

However, she still felt a little uncomfortable. Christen looked at Anson and said, "Aha, you are not the Virgin Mary after all."

Anson shrugged lightly. "I told you. Not only will I compete, but I will also go all out and fight my way out of this vicious world of fame and fortune."

Kristen said sadly, "Does it have to be like this?"

Anson, "No."

The answer was so straightforward that Kristen was very surprised.

Anson, "You can also be like Keanu Reeves. Although he has the opportunity to become a superstar, he always sticks to himself, even away from the light of Hollywood, lives his own way, and doesn't care about money, fame, and glory. He keeps losing and leaving, so he learns to stick to himself." "The point is that we all need to be responsible for our own choices and bear the consequences."

"We can climb to the top of the pyramid by any means necessary, and then we should have the courage to face the consequences of being abandoned by our friends and family; we can also choose to stick to our original intentions, learn to accept what we have and enjoy what we have."

"Hey, dear Kristen, everything in the world has a price. If we get something, we have to pay something. The confusion in reality is often that we are too greedy. We want this and that, we want career and friendship, we want success and fame, so we are trapped in our own desires and cannot extricate ourselves."

Little by little, the smile on Kristen's lips rose slightly -

My mood brightened.

Even Kristen herself couldn't believe that she was actually happy.

Because it was not until this moment that Christen realized that those "assumptions" just now were just jokes from Anson. "So, you won't take such an opportunity, right?"

Anson, "I just said that I would. I got the role of Peter Parker after competing with James."

Kristen shook her head. "It's different. That role was open to competition, and everyone competed fairly. But this role is about taking away a friend, especially when the friend is still injured."

Sure enough, Kristen is a smart girl, and even though she has always been used as a vase, she is always thinking about her career.

Anson did not deny it again, "There are so many roles, too many to count; but friends are really hard to come by in Hollywood."

Kristen, “A true friend.”

There are countless so-called friends in Hollywood. You can become friends with just a single encounter, and you can even declare "I know so-and-so" without having to become drinking buddies.

There is a difference between friends and friends.

Anson laughed out loud, "Well, a true friend."

Now, Kristen finally sorted out his thoughts and his mood gradually brightened. "I know that many people compliment you on your handsome appearance, but has anyone ever complimented you on being smarter than expected?"

Anson thought about it seriously, "So, are you ready to confess? Sorry, Kristen, although it's a great honor, but you're not my type."

Christen didn't answer, but just made a gesture: the middle finger of her right hand was raised.

Christen thought about it seriously, said "Oh", and raised the middle finger of her left hand again.

And, show a big smile.

"Haha. Hahaha." Anson could no longer control himself and burst out laughing.

Lucas had been waiting outside and had not eavesdropped, but he could vaguely guess that it should have something to do with Jake Gyllenhaal.

Maybe tomorrow, or at most the day after tomorrow, Sony Columbia will announce that they are looking for Anson's replacement.

There was no need to break the news because Sony Columbia was racing against time, and their every move was under the surveillance of the media and paparazzi; plus, they were in contact with different agencies and different actors, and with so many people talking, the news would have leaked out long ago.

It has not been made public yet, simply because the media is still gathering information to see which actors are on the list of Sony Columbia's successor.

Eve was also a little surprised to hear Jake Gyllenhaal's name. She thought it was Kristen who recommended him to the crew, so she told Lucas to remind Anson that being stabbed in the back by a friend is the worst feeling.

Lucas had been thinking about how to tell Anson, but he didn't know how to start.

But now it seems that maybe Lucas doesn't need to worry for the time being.
