America gains both fame and fortune

Chapter 375 Gag Order

The violent quarrel attracted dozens of onlookers, including Martin, who were all very satisfied with Bell's melon, which was really big and sweet.

The information conveyed during the quarrel exploded one by one.

Because of Brokeback Mountain, no one was surprised, but instead thought it was reasonable.

Morgan Freeman sneaked up to Martin and said, "Love your feathers."

Martin agreed: "It's better to like women."

Freeman raised his hands in agreement: "From this point of view, we are in the same group."

Martin couldn't help laughing.

Not only him, but everyone in the surrounding crew was laughing.

Such a delicious melon makes me so happy.

With a bang, the trailer door opened from the inside, and Hibby walked out while putting a clown statue into his bag. Seeing so many people outside, he thought of the disgusting bastard in the trailer and shouted, "Your Batman is a disgusting troublemaker!"

Bell was standing in the trailer. His head was in pain from being hit by the statue, and he was so angry from being scolded that he did not come out.

He has never been a good-tempered person.

Although he is very dedicated and hardworking, if someone on the crew provokes him, he can yell at that person for more than ten or twenty minutes.

Hibby parted the crowd and ran outside.

Bell slammed the trailer shut.

Freeman shook his head. “They’re done.”

Martin was in a good mood and asked, "Go back for a drink?"

Freeman felt sore in the waist and legs, and thought it would be better to go back to the room later when he got to the hotel, so he replied, "Good idea, drink a cup before bed, it will help you sleep."

Nolan and Emma Thomas showed up at this time.

Not far from the latter was Mene, who had just arrived in Atlanta.

"Don't leave yet!" Emma Thomas stopped the crowd and issued a gag order: "No one is allowed to disclose what happened today to the news media."

It is impossible to prohibit private circulation and discussion. She is very pragmatic: "Don't forget the contract you signed when you joined the crew. The crew has a sufficient budget and the legal team is well staffed."

Although the spectators would not speak to the media, they were all making faces and laughing.

With Emma Thomas released, they couldn't wait to discuss it.

This is such a big gossip that if you want people not to discuss it in private, you have to get a few Gatling guns and shoot them all.

Martin called Freeman: "Let's go, get off work, and go back to the hotel."

Freeman also has a granddaughter to take with him: "You go first, I'll be there soon."

Bruce drove an electric car, and when Martin got in, Mene also got in.

"It's my first day here and there's already such a big gossip?" He laughed happily: "Boss, Bell is in trouble."

Martin whispered, "Isn't it normal to be unlucky?"

Mene was a very smart man, and he immediately asked, "Boss?"

Without waiting for Martin to reply, he said, "I see!"

Bruce, who was driving, said, "Do you understand how to lose weight?"

Mene suddenly wanted to vomit too, and retched a few times.

"Pregnant? Whose?" Bruce teased Mene: "Is it Emma's?"

Mene retorted: "Old Bull, don't slander me. Emma and I are just pure friends."

Martin looked at Mene's fatter figure and said, "You don't have to accompany her to eat desserts anymore. You can leave anytime you want."

Unexpectedly, Mene was reluctant: "I get along well with Emma, ​​and we can chat very well."

Martin nodded: "It's up to you."

Mene reported to the crew today and officially joined the crew. He was ready for battle and asked, "Boss, our opponent is Bell. What is the goal?"

Martin said lightly: "Let Bale be as manic and angry as Batman."

Bruce replied: "He's a pervert. He wants Bale to beat up the Joker like Batman did."

Mene was puzzled, and said simply and neatly: "Bell has long been our enemy, and holding back the enemy is cruel to yourself!"

Bruce said: "Your awareness has improved."

Mene was so arrogant: "I am Uncle Mene who even Paris Hilton has to pay to lick me!"

Martin patted Mene on the shoulder and said, "You are the epitome of a successful man."

He suddenly remembered something: "Old Bull, how are you and the Kardashian sisters doing?"

"Sister?" Mene immediately grasped the key point: "Old Bu, why didn't you call me for such a good thing?"

Bruce said: "They are all under 30 years old."

Mene shook his head and sighed, "It's not my cup of tea."

"What's the matter?" Martin asked.

"Kim knew about my relationship with Kohler and proposed a condition." Bruce seemed a little distressed: "As long as I agree to her, she will no longer care about my relationship with Kohler."

Martin had a bad guess.

Sure enough, Bruce continued, "Kim asked me to accompany her to shoot a video without showing my face..." Martin patted Bruce on the back and said nothing more.

Bruce has been working in Hollywood for several years, and he has always handled every choice well.

"I'm just scared of being Paris Hilton's new leading man," Menet muttered.

When they arrived at the hotel, the three of them went into the bar together. After waiting for a while, Morgan Freeman came over.

Martin knew that Mene wanted to be an actor like Morgan Freeman, so he introduced him to Freeman.

Freeman saw Mene's skin color and taught him something about how black supporting actors can survive in Hollywood.

Martin will also help Mene to make connections and gain more resources.

In the past two years, after making progress with the resources introduced by Martin, Mene has also established a certain network of contacts and has close relationships with many female casting directors over the age of 50.

Gray Film and Television Production Center.

After the crew finished work, most of the people left.

Some extras were slow to move and took their time changing their clothes.

Several of them looked at the rest trailer where the crowd had just dispersed.

After Nolan knocked on the trailer door, Bell opened it and got out.

Looking at Bell with the ice pack on his head, Nolan suppressed his impatience and asked, "Are you okay?"

Bell forced a smile: "I can handle it."

Thinking of all the bad things that happened to Bale, including Heath Ledger, Nolan became more and more dissatisfied with Bale and reminded him: "Don't let your personal affairs affect your work."

Bell could hear Nolan's dissatisfaction. Since the cooperation in "The Beginning of War", this was the first time he heard Nolan speak to him in this tone.

It was obvious that the director's patience with him had reached a limit.

Good actors need great directors, just like Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio. Bale still wants to continue working with Nolan, and quickly explained: "There must be a misunderstanding in this matter. I am not gay. Heath and I are just pure friends, nothing else..."

Nolan raised his hand to interrupt him: "These are not important. Emma has issued a gag order to the crew. You can take a day off tomorrow and sort out these things."

Bell could only respond, "Okay."

Nolan waved his hand and turned to leave.

Bell could tell that his relationship with Nolan was going downhill.

But talking more at this time may cause even greater resentment, and Nolan is impatient, and everything he says will be wrong.

When Nolan walked away, Bell lowered his raised hand and slammed the ice pack in his hand on the ground.

The bag broke and ice splattered everywhere.

Bell roared wildly, got on the trailer and closed the door. Like Batman who was almost driven crazy by the Joker, he picked up a folding stool and smashed the facilities inside the car.

If he didn't vent, he felt like he might go crazy!

Finally, the car became quiet. Bell sat down on the sofa, buried his head between his legs, rubbed his hair hard with his ten fingers, and forced himself to calm down.

But his restless heart was beating wildly, making his eyes red.

After a while, Bell felt calmer and took out his cell phone to dial Hibby's number, but the other party didn't answer and hung up the call.

Fight again and it will still be the same.

Bell's emotions, which had just calmed down, lost control again. He picked up his cell phone and smashed it down.

The phone hit the metal floor of the car and broke into pieces.

Bell buried his head between his legs again.

On the other side, Nolan met up with Emma Thomas, and before getting on the electric car, he saw the screenwriter.

He waved his hand and called the screenwriter over.

"director?"

"Don't record Bell's affairs." Nolan thought for a while, and his excellent business mind once again had an idea: "You write like this."

The screenwriter took out his pen and notebook as quickly as possible.

Nolan said: "Bale was so immersed in the role of Batman that he was seriously affected by the character's emotions and had a conflict with his wife who came to visit him. He vented the character's emotions on his wife, causing her to leave the crew in anger."

The screenwriter quickly wrote it down, and as he recorded more real behind-the-scenes footage, he gradually grasped the core of the crew's publicity and marketing for this part.

The actors are very committed, the characters are very abnormal, and they can bring great emotional impact!

Nolan got in the car and said, "That's all for today."

The screenwriter made way for Nolan, and waited until he drove away before he put away his pen and notebook, muttering to himself: "This director can write and direct, and he also knows how to create news and hype. He will definitely become a top-tier Hollywood director in the future."

On the electric car, Nolan frowned and said, "Bell is causing more and more trouble."

"Don't worry, this is a trivial matter, and it won't delay the filming of the crew." Emma Thomas comforted her husband first, and then said: "Except for Batman, don't use Bell anymore, he is too conceited."

She was extremely dissatisfied with Bale's behavior of tying herself to Heath Ledger: "Think about how much trouble Bale has caused since the audition."

Nolan nodded slightly: "Unless I also shoot Batman, other projects Bell will not be on my use list."

Seeing that he was receptive to advice, Emma Thomas took the opportunity to say, "Try to use as few of those people from the Australian gang as possible. Not only are their salaries too high, but they also don't have the corresponding box office appeal."
