Chapter 29 31. The sequelae

The United States is a capitalist country, the largest capitalist country in the world, but it is also a country that attaches great importance to workers' rights.

Here, the existence of trade unions is no joke, but will actually protect the interests of employees. The eight-hour work system is strictly followed and written into the law.

Here, if a company infringes upon the legal rights and interests of employees, the trade union can come forward to negotiate with the company.

If the negotiations fail and the legal process is slow, I'm sorry, you may have to face a strike.

Once it gets to the point of a strike, the companies are most likely the first to compromise, paying compensation, apologizing and going through the process of increasing salaries.

After all, it's about making money and doing business. You have to kneel when you need to kneel. Don't be afraid!

It only costs a few dollars to pay these poor guys a little more in salary, but how much money will they have to pay if they delay work for a day? We need to do the math clearly.

So in Hollywood, unless there are special circumstances, everyone will have weekends off to rest. Even the crew is the same. They clock in and out on time and generally never work overtime.

If you really have to work overtime, double wages must be paid. If not, expect the union to cause trouble.

At this time, a Lincoln SUV was speeding on the road towards Anaheim. There was a man and a woman in the car, Eric and Gal Gadot.

"I've never been to Disneyland, but I heard it's every child's dreamland," Gal Gadot said hopefully.

“Is there no Disneyland in Israel?”

"No, I heard that it was originally planned to be built, but I don't know why it didn't happen. This is a matter for the government and businessmen, not our concern."

"Then you've come at the right time. We can relax for two days and have fun. You must have come to the United States so long and haven't seen the sights yet."

Gadot pouted: "There is no time at all. Judy found a teacher for me and Refaeli. We will learn acting in the morning and practice body shape in the afternoon."

"After a day of training, we can finally take a break. She often takes us to the crew to observe. I have been to the Sharknado crew eight times."

Eric laughed loudly: "There's nothing we can do about it. After all, you guys have never been exposed to acting before, and there's not much time left to join the group. We can only use a blitz approach."

Eric knew very well what Judy did, that it was not enough to just learn acting, one had to observe and learn on the spot.

For example, things like positioning and camera shots, no matter how much you talk about them, it’s better to try them yourself.

An experienced actor may make a seemingly unintentional movement, perhaps just a small step, but he can present his front side in the camera, and the audience cannot tell that it is intentional.

As for those newbies, they learn theory very well in school, but when they arrive at the crew, they are completely blinded and often get scolded.

Of course, Eric only let them go to the scene to observe and learn, and would never let them appear in a bad movie. The reputation must always be maintained.

Gal Gadot sighed: "I know you're doing this for my own good, but it feels like being back in school, and I don't think anyone likes this feeling, except Hermione Granger."

Speaking of going to school, Eric looked at her. The collagen on her profile was bubbling, as if it would bounce back if pressed, making people want to pinch it.

But after all, this girl is only 17 years old and has only graduated from high school. Logically, she should go to college after the summer vacation.

Or if you were in Israel, you would have to join the army, but you ended up coming to the United States yourself.

"Gadot, I need your opinion on something."

Gal Gadot glanced at him and said, "How strange! You actually know how to ask questions. Don't you always issue tasks directly? My boss."

Then she imitated Eric's voice and shouted in a rough voice: "Gadot, you can't fall behind in dancing; Gadot, you'd better take some time to practice kung fu; Gadot, you can't forget your experience as a model, you must know how to show your sexiness; you are just like the old man in my family, blah blah..."

Eric laughed again: "Am I that much of a jerk?"

"Of course, you're going to go much further, like Shylock and Grandet, squeezing every last bit of energy out of others!"

"Hahaha... If I were Grandet, I wouldn't have specially brought you out to play today. Besides, my requirements for Refaeli are not so high. Don't you understand?"

Gal Gadot curled her lips, but she was very happy in her heart. Compared with Refaeli, Eric obviously valued her more.

"Gadot, let's get back to that. You are 17 years old now. As an Israeli, you are facing two problems. One is that you should serve in the military next year, and the other is, do you plan to go to college?"

The car fell silent, and Gal Gadot pondered for a moment and said, "This is also what I am worried about. In my country, military service is compulsory. I am afraid that after filming Transformers, I will have to go back."

"No, I'm asking, do you want to serve in the military?"

Gal Gadot was stunned for a moment: "I don't think anyone is willing to do this unless they are forced to do so by life."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"I understand. Leave it to me. I can't allow you to disappear for two years just after you become famous."

"What do you want to do?"

Eric smiled and said, "It's very simple. I will apply for American citizenship for you, making you a dual citizen, and then you can choose to go to college here."

"In this case, Israel still has the right to draft you into the army, but since you are studying abroad and have dual citizenship, your enlistment can be delayed until you finish your studies."

"Of course, studying for an undergraduate degree is not enough. You need to continue your studies and extend your time in school for ten or eight years. By the time you finish your studies, you will have become an assistant professor at the school, and your age limit will have exceeded, so your enlistment will be automatically cancelled."

Gal Gadot was a little confused: "Is this still possible?"

"Why not? I asked someone to consult a lawyer. Many children of the rich and powerful in your country do this. The law always restricts those who are incompetent."

"Okay, but can I become a citizen so quickly?"! "Hahaha Gadot, you still don't understand. The law always restricts those who are incompetent, especially in the United States!"

"I suggest you study acting. The workload isn't too stressful and graduating successfully won't be a problem. USC is a good choice."

Gal Gadot nodded: "When I got on that plane, I had no choice, Eric, I'll just listen to you. Anyway, no one else can give me advice."

As they continued walking, California Disneyland was very close to Los Angeles, only 30 kilometers away, and it didn't take long for the two to reach their destination.

"Wow... I've wanted to come to this castle for a long time."

"Then let's just relax and wait until Monday to discuss everything!"
