"I don't want you to care!"

The blond girl with tears on her face rushed out of the study and ran directly back to the room. Without waiting for the people behind to chase, she slammed the door shut, making a loud bang, "I don't need you to worry about it!"

A middle-aged couple in their 40s came out of the study, their faces gloomy and obviously angry.

"Why is she so disobedient!" The middle-aged man seemed to be exasperated, "Is this still our daughter?"

The middle-aged woman was not much better, and said angrily, "Going to university is not a hundred times better than studying acting!"

Julian Fellowes waited for the cousins ​​to enter the living room, asked them to sit on the sofa, brought two glasses of water over, and persuaded, "Kerry is not usually like this, don't be angry, and persuade her again."

"Persuasion? Does persuasion work?" The middle-aged man raised his voice, obviously speaking to Carey Mulligan, who was hiding in the room, "If she doesn't give up, we'll take her back to London and send her to a Catholic boarding house. School."

"boom!"

There was a crisp sound from the door, as if someone inside was throwing something.

Just as the middle-aged man was about to stand up, Julian Fellowes quickly grabbed him, "It'll be alright, let her vent."

Compared with the grumpy middle-aged man, the middle-aged woman is slightly better. She grabbed the page of the script she read earlier and asked, "Judy, who the hell is that Murphy Stanton?"

"I asked someone to get to know him. He was only released from prison this year. He was a freelance journalist before."

Julian Fellowes said with some contempt, "He only established Stanton Studio a few months ago. This is his first project, and he is a newcomer to the industry."

"Have you ever been in prison?" The middle-aged man slapped the coffee table in front of him, "Kerry must never enter the crew of such a person."

"And the script..." Pushing the script in front of her husband, the middle-aged woman said, "How can Kerry come into contact with this kind of subject matter."

"Sorry, I was negligent."

Having said that, Julian Fellowes doesn't care. Although this subject matter is sensitive, Hollywood produces so many movies a year, what sensitive content is not there?

If nothing else, what was the famous work of Natalie Portman, who became popular all over the world last year? A little girl falls in love with a killer...

And Kirsten Dunst, how old did he shoot kiss scenes?

As a veteran Hollywood actor, Julian Fellowes doesn't think there is anything excessive about this subject.

Mrs. Julian Fellowes brought two cups of coffee out of the kitchen and brought them to the Mulligans and her husband, and also comforted, "Children are rebellious these days, and reprimands like you did in the study will only be counterproductive. Effect."

The middle-aged man disagreed and said loudly, "After I bring her back to the UK, I will find another strict etiquette teacher."

Carey Mulligan, who was hiding in the room, could hear it clearly. Tears of grievance poured down like a flood of open gates. Thinking of the harsh reprimands of his parents in the study before, and the miserable life after returning to the UK in the future, he couldn't help sobbing. stand up.

She felt that the whole world betrayed her.

Why can't they understand their own minds like Murphy?

The girl's sobbing grew louder, and the father and mother outside had begun to discuss how to bring her back to England.

Hearing those extremely harsh words, Carey Mulligan became more and more aggrieved, more and more uncomfortable, and his heart became more and more hard.

She won't give up anything, she will definitely resist those bad guys to the end!

Thinking of this, Carey Mulligan took out his phone, dialed Murphy's number again, and after picking up the phone, he choked up and said, "What should I do, Murphy! My dream of being an actor is about to be shattered. It's gone!"

"Hey,

Kerry, why are you crying again? "The voice in the receiver is still so understanding, still so kind and kind, "Have you quarreled with your parents?" Don't take it to heart, all parents in this world love and support their children..."

"But I'm an exception!" Carey Mulligan raised her voice a little. "I didn't fight with them, I was reprimanded severely, the kind that would be reprimanded for anything I said!"

"They're taking me back to England!" she gritted her teeth. "I've had enough!"

"What did you say?" She gritted her teeth so hard just now that she didn't hear what Murphy said.

In the studio, Murphy turned the pencil in one hand and held the phone in the other, seemingly well-intentioned, but in fact he said, "You need to find a place to be quiet now, calm down."

The girl over there said immediately, "I really need a quiet place."

She hesitated for a while, then said slowly, "Can I go to you, Murphy? I can't think of where to go, shall I go to you?"

Murphy couldn't help scratching his head, this girl is really a flower raised in a greenhouse.

But it is definitely not a wise choice to let Carey Mulligan come here to find him. The other party is not yet an adult, and the meeting between the two in a private setting may cause some trouble.

"Please!" There was a plea again on the phone. "They're ready to go out. I can sneak out."

After thinking for a few seconds, Murphy said, "I'll be waiting for you at Milton Cafe."

Carey Mulligan's parents are obviously more stubborn than he imagined. Murphy thought that as long as she made a scene, her parents would agree. Now not only do they disagree, but they are also going to bring her back to the UK...

When he went to the Milton Cafe, Murphy had been thinking about this matter. If it didn't work, he had to give up. Fortunately, he thought of this possibility before, and he was also continuing to recruit actors and actresses to find suitable candidates.

When I came to Milton Cafe, the owner Lynch was not there, Murphy explained to the waiter, found a booth, sat down, opened the notebook he carried with him, and waited patiently while reviewing the schedule.

It took a full hour and a half before Carey Mulligan entered the cafe.

She was dressed in sportswear, with a baseball cap on her head, her delicate baby face completely hidden under the long brim.

"This way." Murphy waved to her.

The girl took off her baseball cap, walked over quickly, and sat directly opposite.

It can be seen that she cried very sadly before, her eyes were red and a little swollen.

"What to drink?" Murphy asked.

"Whatever." She seemed to have a lot to say, a lot of grievances to talk about, "I have been strictly required since I was a child, and I have to meet their standards in everything I do..."

Murphy ordered a latte for Carey Mulligan, looked at her, but did not speak, acting as a serious listener.

After talking about how unfortunate her life was, Carey Mulligan felt thirsty and took a sip of coffee.

Murphy could hear that her complaints and dissatisfaction with her family were not caused by this incident, but the result of a long accumulation. "Are you sure you want to be an actor?" he asked again.

Carey Mulligan nodded without hesitation, "This is my dream."

"But it's never easy to realize a dream." Murphy paused for a while to sort out his thoughts. "It's a difficult process, and it often pays unimaginable costs."

He looked at Carey Mulligan and began to babble, "I wanted to be a very successful film director when I was younger than you, but I was a ghetto and only went to a bad public high school. There is no opportunity for professional education in this area.”

Carey Mulligan thought Murphy was comforting her with a tragic past, and there was a bit of sympathy on her face.

"But I didn't give up. I knew no one would invest in a movie for someone like me. I had to find a way to raise my own money."

Hearing this, Carey Mulligan interjected, "You made it, and you're about to make a movie."

"Can I have today, do you know how much I have experienced?"

Carey Mulligan shook his head, and Murphy said half-truth, "I offended a lot of people in order to raise money and spent a year in prison."

He pointed to the not-so-obvious scars on his face. "These are symbols left in prison."

"But I'm not discouraged." Murphy said lightly, "I know what I want, and I will work hard for my goal. Any difficulties and obstacles are not reasons or excuses to stop moving forward."

He finally said, "What determines our future is never how we think, but how we do it."

Listening to these words, Carey Mulligan seemed to understand something.

After thinking for a while, she gradually realized that to become an actor, waiting for her parents to let go would not work...

"I know what my goals are? Why can't I work hard for them?"

Such thoughts appeared more and more clearly in Carey Mulligan's mind, "I'm going to fight too!"

Facing such a particularly rebellious girl, Murphy never told her what to do, and always guided her in a side-by-side manner according to her ideas. In fact, a rebellious girl, can she bring some surprises to herself?

If he can, he doesn't want to give up Carey Mulligan. After all, she has auditioned dozens of actresses, and she is the best one, and it is directly related to whether James Franco will join his crew.

Carey Mulligan picked up the coffee, took a hard sip, suppressed all unhappiness and grievances, and looked at the opposite side, "Thank you, Murphy, you have made me understand a lot."

"Reasonable?" Murphy's face immediately looked inexplicable, "What did I do?"

"It's nothing." Carey Mulligan shook his head, feeling that the person opposite was really understanding. She stood up and waved goodbye, "Thanks for the coffee, I'm going back."

After walking out of the booth, she turned around and reminded Murphy, "Don't forget your promise, you will wait for me for a week."

It is still far from October, and Murphy himself is not in a hurry. He pointed to his head and said solemnly, "I have been remembering it here."

What will this rebellious British girl do? Murphy didn't know, but after just three days, he received a call from a Mr. Mulligan who wanted to meet him, read the script, and talk about the Carey Mulligan contract. question.
