In California in August, it was the season of sunshine. The bright sun hung in the sky, scattering thousands of lights, as if even the air was about to smoke. Matthew was sweating profusely, as if he had no idea. He stepped on his long legs and ran around a flat land.

Under the large parasol in the center of the field, Hawke Breton stood like a javelin and shouted loudly, "Push up your back, Matthew Horner! You are a soldier now!"

Hearing this, Matthew was running immediately straightened his back, even when he was running, he was like a javelin.

After the ten-day training ended on the last day, Matthew not only became stronger, but his body gradually became straight and straight, and at first glance he looked a little like a soldier.

But it's just like this. After all, it's impossible to change much in ten days.

As usual, after running, Matthew adjusted his posture and walking style under the guidance of Hawke Breton. This habit was deeply rooted and needed to practice more.

These are the general content of training, and time is limited. Even experienced veterans like Hawke Breton cannot give Matthew too much.

After all, this is for audition needs. Everything is for Matthew to naturally act as a powerful military role when auditioning.

Matthew continued to practice on the field, and Helen Hermann gradually walked over from a distance.

She went straight to the place where Hawke Breton stood, took off her sun hat and looked at Matthew who was practicing seriously, and asked, "Is his training going well?"

Hawke Breton turned his head to look at Helen Herman and said, "It's much better than I expected."

"Huh?" Helen Hermann looked at him in confusion.

"I can't teach much," Hawke Breton explained, "but he is very serious and hardworking, much better than most of the recruits I've taught!"

Helen Hermann never doubted Matthew's attitude, "What's the effect?"

Hawke Breton pointed to Matthew and said, "So, if you put him among a bunch of ordinary people, someone who has experienced professional training like me, will definitely notice him and think he is the most military person."

Helen Herman nodded, "That's enough."

Why did she agree with Matthew's proposal? Because she learned from Eric Pock that Tom Hanks would personally participate in the audition for the role. Tom Hanks had more than two months of military training due to filming "Save Private Ryan" in the past two years. In some ways, she was far more familiar with soldiers than ordinary people.

In fact, this is also a kind of adventure, but she and Matthew don’t have the advantage. If they don’t take risks and try, the final result will be disappointment.

As for the backup plan, Helen Hermann wanted it to be backup forever.

"Okay, Matthew." Hawke Breton looked at his watch and shouted, "Ten minutes of rest."

Matthew strode over, but his walking posture was obviously different from before. His waist was straight and he was like a cheetah ready to attack at any time.

Helen Hermann took out a bottle of mineral water from the box on the ground and handed it to Matthew. Only then did he realize that Matthew's skin was obviously dark, showing a lighter wheat color. With his strong body, he set off a strong temperament that only men have.

She nodded with satisfaction, which undoubtedly added some weight to the upcoming audition.

Matthew took the water, unscrewed the lid and poured several large holes, and poured the remaining part directly on his head, which made him feel a little cooler.

The weather is very hot and the training is very tiring, but it is within the range he can bear. After all, these are nothing compared to the hard work he once worked on the construction site.

Besides, once you become famous, those life with bright lights and wine...

These vulgar ideas, like a carrot, seduced Matthew to keep working hard.

"Your cell phone is ringing." Helen Hermann suddenly reminded.

Matthew also heard the ringtone of his cell phone, bent down and flipped out the cell phone from the box. It was a strange number displayed on it. He pressed the answer button and just put it in his ear, he heard a formulaic sound.

"Hello, is it Mr. Matthew Horner?"

After hearing only one sentence, Matthew was sure that he had never heard of the voice and replied, "I am Matthew Horner."

"I am a staff member of the Los Angeles District Court..." The man briefly introduced himself and said, "Mr. Matthew Horner, you are involved in a breach of contract lawsuit. My colleagues and I are going to send you a subpoena. The subpoena needs to be signed by you in person."

Matthew instantly thought of a contract dispute with the crew of "Tao Tarot".

The man's words continued to ring from the phone's earpiece, "Where can we find you?"

As time went by and not received a lawyer's letter for a long time, Matthew luckily thought that the other party gave up, but unexpectedly he actually left the legal process.

"Wait." Matthew covered the microphone's position, as Hawke Breton was present, and said vaguely to Helen Hermann, "The court wants me to sign the summons for liquidated damages in person."

Helen Herman immediately understood what Matthew was saying, and turned to Hawke Breton and said, "Let's just get the training here. Matthew and I have something to deal with."

Hawke Breton was not stupid, could tell what the words meant, and said, "Okay, call me if you need it."

Matthew waved at him, "Goodbye, Hawke. I'll pay you the remaining expense tomorrow."

Hawke Breton nodded with a smile, turned around and strode away.

In just a short time, Helen Hermann had already considered the countermeasures and said, "Let them send them to the company."

"Hey, are you still here?" Matthew heard the response over there, reported an address and said, "After an hour, I will wait for you at the Angel Brokerage Company."

After saying that, he hung up the phone and cursed, "These bastards!"

Helen Hermann waved to him, "Let's go, let's go back."

Matthew followed her to the farm parking lot, and Helen Herman threw the car keys to him, "You drive, I'll contact someone to deal with this."

After getting into the driver's seat, Matthew started the car and drove out of the manor. Helen Hermann, who was in the co-pilot, had already called.

"At Lawyer Wilson?" she said a name that Matthew was familiar with. "I have a breach of contract lawsuit. Yes, it is the client I introduced to you a few months ago. Now the other party has gone through legal procedures and is about to issue a subpoena. Can you come here? OK, I'll wait for you in the company."

After hanging up the phone, she continued to call, "Mr. Clint? I am Helen. I want to consult something. One of my clients is involved in a breach of the show contract. Yes, he is a member of the union. Can the union help? Need relevant materials? No problem, I will pass it to you tomorrow."

On the way back to Burbank, SHren Hermann made several calls in succession and contacted many people.

Before arriving at the small building of the Angel's agency, Matthew parked the car and followed Helen Hermann, who was the first to get off the car, and walked into the small building together.

"Is it very troublesome?" asked Matthew.

To be honest, with an agent helping him deal with it, he was not as troubled as before.

"Not a hassle." Helen Hermann was still in his usual style. "If it's very troublesome, I'd rather give up on you."

Matthew understood what she meant, shrugged, and said nothing.

In his perception, this is a very normal thing. After all, he is not a star. If the investment cost is high, it is completely in proportion to the return. Why did Helen Hermann help him?

Just because she is his agent?

Matthew remembers that she also serves as the agent of dozens of other actors!

After entering Helen Herman's office, Matthew waited for a short time. Attorney Wilson was the first to arrive. Not long after, two staff members of the Los Angeles District Court also arrived. Accompanied by Attorney Wilson, Matthew signed the lawsuit subpoena in person.

After seeing off the court staff, Matthew carefully retelled the whole incident to lawyer Wilson.

"It was what I told you last time." Lawyer Wilson said directly, "You breach the contract first, and the other party has sufficient evidence. The best way to deal with it is to reach an out-of-court settlement with them."

He returned the summons he had carefully looked at to Matthew, "I am sure to cut off one-third to one-half of the amount of liquidated damages."

The liquidated damages are 50,000 US dollars, even half of them, 25,000 US dollars... Matthew finally had a headache, and he had not saved the money he had made recently.

He has always held the lucky mentality of a small person that should be ignored. Now it seems that this mentality is really unbearable.

"Okay." Matthew said seriously, "Secretary Wilson, I'll entrust you with this."

"Let me talk about my charge first." Attorney Wilson said without hesitation, "A fifth of the amount I cut for you as my reward."

Matthew did not answer immediately. He knew little about American laws, especially entertainment laws, so he turned to Helen Hermann, saw Helen Hermann nodding to him and said, "Yes."

Lawyer Wilson stood up, "I will hold on to the other party for a while and then apply for an out-of-court settlement. Mr. Horner, you must be mentally prepared, it may last for several months."

He said goodbye to Helen Hermann, and then said to Matthew, "You take time to go to my office these days, and we will sign a formal agency agreement."

Seeing lawyer Wilson leave, Matthew leaned on the single sofa, talking sadly, tens of thousands of dollars, he can't even take out one tenth of it now.

Matthew sat for a while, thinking about the job he was about to fight for, and asked Helen Herman, "How much can I get to get the role of Ronald Spears."

Helen Herman thought for a while and said, "I estimate that each episode may be between 5,000 and 6,000 US dollars. If the other party has a sufficient budget and I have more favorable factors in negotiations, I may be able to win more than 8,000 US dollars."

After hearing what she said, Matthew was instantly inspired. Even if Ronald Spears only had five episodes, the role's reward was almost enough to repay the liquidated damages.
