America gains both fame and fortune

Chapter 528 Real and Fake Bullets
In Los Angeles, the crew filmed almost all action scenes, from car chases to gun fights. The three blocks near City Hall were bustling every day.

On the crowded street of the temporary studio, Martin drove the Cadillac through the traffic, rushed into the square, turned the steering wheel and braked, and the car stopped with a beautiful drift.

He yelled to Ellen Page in the passenger seat: "Keep your head down."

Ellen Page squatted down with her head in her hands.

Gunshots rang out, and the two actors opposite fell backwards.

Nolan pursued authenticity in filming, so when shooting at long distances, the actors used blank bullets that could ignite muzzle flames.

The filming paused, and the cameraman in the back seat got out of the car, quickly took the water bottle, and drank several sips of water in succession to suppress the urge to vomit.

Martin got out of the car and handed the gun to Bruce.

This is not a prop gun, but a real gun.

Nolan and action director Tom came over to discuss the next action scene with Martin.

When it comes to shooting action scenes, the two attach great importance to Martin's opinions.

In the distance, brothers Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck, with thick beards, were sitting in the car and observing the town square.

Because of the artificial rainfall, only Martin and Nolan could be seen vaguely.

Cassie took out a telescope and looked over there: "A bunch of people are circling around him. He is like the center of the earth."

Big Ben said, "Go investigate Lily Carter. Did you find anything special?"

"No." Cassie shook her head repeatedly: "A young artist who came out of the slums, exposing her resume will only increase her reputation."

Ben still can't figure it out: "It's incredible that Martin Davis never forced, coerced or lured any woman."

Cassie shrugged. “He has no shortage of women.”

Big Ben automatically replied: "Pete and I are not short of it either."

Cassie was a little embarrassed and continued, "There are a lot of rumors in the modeling circle. I asked someone to find out carefully. It was Leonardo who first introduced Martin and Nicholson to the supermodel circle. Later, those supermodels began to actively invite Martin."

He smiled helplessly: "Do you know what's going on in the Victoria's Secret supermodel circle? It is said that the two pre-wedding parties of Heidi Klum and Alessandra Ambrosio have caused a huge impact in their circle. Now there is a saying that if the Angel supermodels can't invite Martin to their pre-wedding bachelorette parties, it will be a failure."

Daben was not without envy: "Even when I was at my best, I didn't get this kind of treatment."

Cassie said, "Maybe you don't have as much capital and skills as Martin?"

Big Ben glanced out the window and suddenly stretched out his hand: "Give me the telescope?"

"Who do you want to spy on?" Cassie handed the telescope over.

Big Ben raised his binoculars and looked towards an intersection outside the temporary studio. In a sparsely populated area, he spotted a familiar woman.

Although the woman was wearing a hat and her figure was out of shape, her bulging belly made it easy for him to tell that it was Toni, a pregnant woman who lived in the same apartment building.

Since helping out at the hospital, the two of them would occasionally run into each other since they lived in the same apartment building and would sometimes chat for a few words.

Ben always remembered Toni's husband or boyfriend who attended the Independence Day celebration at the White House, and wanted to get to know him through Toni.

As a result, after such a long time, there was still no sign of that person.

Ben once suspected that Toni was bragging.

But after observing carefully for a while, he found that it was not the case. Toni was full of confidence every day and looked forward to the birth of her child.

When discussing the child's father, his face was filled with pride.

Cassie noticed that Ben wasn't looking at Martin, so she asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"

"Tony, it's the pregnant woman who lives in the same building as me. You've seen her twice." Big Ben handed him the telescope and pointed over there: "She cares a lot about the baby in her belly. The city center is so chaotic, what is she doing here?"

Cassie picked up the telescope and saw the pregnant woman. She said, "She seems to be watching the crew filming? Yes, she is watching the crew filming very seriously."

"Is her husband or boyfriend working on the show?" Ben asked casually, "Who on the show has ever attended the Independence Day celebration at the White House?"

Cassie put down the binoculars and said, "It seems there are only two people." He hesitated for a moment and gave the answer: "Martin and his manager and bodyguard Bruce."

Da Ben was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Impossible?"

Cassie said, "Try it out when you see her again. If it's true..."

Big Ben suddenly laughed: "Maybe this is the breakthrough we have been looking for!" He pondered: "I have helped her before and have a good relationship with her. I will look for an opportunity."

Toni lived in the same apartment building as him, so the opportunity was easy to find.

A few dozen meters away, a group of girls in cool clothes suddenly ran out.

The girls rushed into the artificial rain created by the crew, twisted their sexy and enchanting bodies, and danced passionately.

Elsa, the leader, shouted, "Martin, I love you!"

The rest of the girls shouted together: "Martin, I love you!"

Then, they all took off their tops.

Right on the highest point of the fair skin, there was a line of cola-colored words written in large letters: "Martin, I love you."

Entertainment reporters and paparazzi in Los Angeles are not surprised. They have seen these crazy female fans of Martin on many occasions since last year.

But this kind of news also has value, and many people's cameras are pointed at the girls' chests.

They didn't mean anything else, they just wanted to take a picture of what was written on it. Toni saw Aisha and the others, cursed them inwardly, pulled down the brim of her sun hat, and walked towards the parking lot.

When these bitches came over, Toni didn't dare to stay for long, for fear of being recognized by them.

The beauty of the future cannot be ruined by these bitches.

Toni came here and looked back at her former sisters. They were destined to be from two different worlds.

The security personnel of the crew came over and persuaded Aisha and the sisters to leave.

In order to appease them, some concept posters of the film and Martin's character were specially given to them.

Typical of whoever can make a fuss will be the one to appease.

Elsa and the others picked up their clothes and put them on. Although they did not see Martin himself, they were satisfied with the gifts. After being persuaded by the crew, they left the artificial rain area.

Not far away, a car drove away.

The quick-talking girl pulled Aisha and said, "Acting leader, I think I saw the leader."

Aisha's nose was almost crooked by her: "How many times do you want me to tell you that I am the leader, not the acting leader!"

Another girl next to her said, "There was a woman just now, her back does look a bit like Toni." She then denied it, "No, that woman is a fat woman, Toni hates fat women the most."

The quick-talking girl scratched her head and said, "That's right. Toni can't possibly make herself fat. She's only been gone for a few months. She's not a rubber man who can get fat just by saying so."

Aisha found that she hated Toni more and more. Even though she was no longer in the sisterhood, her name still affected the sisterhood: "Now Toni has lost contact with us. She may have returned to her hometown, found a boyfriend, got married, and become a traitor to the sisterhood. Don't mention her anymore in the future."

"Toni loves Martin so much, she won't marry anyone else." But someone replied tactlessly: "She said that if she can't marry Martin, she will marry Martin's posters and photos."

Elsa felt depressed, put her clothes in order, and said, "Let's go, let's go."

A dozen girls broke through the paparazzi's encirclement, got into several cars, and quickly left the neighborhood.

On the other side, Ben Affleck noticed that Toni had disappeared and started the car.

Cassie was still observing through the telescope, and some strange thoughts kept coming out of her frustrated head: "If I had such a large group of beautiful female fans, I would definitely reward them well."

Da Ben asked, "What reward do you want to use?"

Cassie, being the artistic actor that she is, still hasn’t learned her lesson and says, “With my gun and bullets, of course.”

Big Ben, who had a much bigger brain than his brother, said, "And then they sued you, Qiang Jian, and asked you to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation. If more than a dozen people are added together, the compensation might be tens of millions."

Cassie looked at her brother. That was what happened to her brother. His reputation was ruined, his assets were severely reduced, and no one cared about him in Hollywood.

Daben reminded: "Be careful, don't let yourself get screwed before we get rid of anyone else."

Cassie nodded, "I see."

The two walked back and drove out of the downtown area.

Cassie thought of someone: "Where's Pete? Didn't they say Pete was coming over too?"

"Pete wants to act alone. He has more connections in the industry than we do." Ben saw the red light ahead and stepped on the brakes. "To be honest, he hates Martin more than we do. He almost went to the Sacred Valley to develop."

When the car stopped, he continued, "Peter's house was robbed by Martin, his wife and girlfriend were robbed by Martin, and even his endorsement was robbed by Martin. The few times I met him, he was very radical. Maybe we don't need to do much, Peter will drag Martin to death together."

"I hope so." Cassie thought carefully: "Brad Pitt's life has been ruined by Martin Davis."

…………

In a very ordinary restaurant in Koreatown.

Pete, wearing a boonie hat, came in from the back. The restaurant owner, who used to work in Hollywood, nodded at him and took him to the second floor through the employee food delivery passage and into a private private room.

Inside the private room sat an ordinary middle-aged man.

"Clayson, long time no see." Pete greeted him and pulled out a chair to sit opposite him.

The restaurant owner took the initiative to leave the private room and closed the door.

Clayson smiled at Pitt and said, "I'm so glad to see you're still in Los Angeles."

When his child was seriously ill, Pitt helped him. He always remembered: "Brad, if there is anything I can help you with, just let me know."

Pete smiled and said, "I do need a little help from you."

He opened the bag he brought with him, took out a black bag, put it on the table, and pushed it to Clayson: "I heard that you work in Nolan's crew. Help me with something."

Clayson opened the bag and found several neatly bundled U.S. dollars in various denominations.

In addition, there were several bullets, not the blank bullets used by the crew, but bullets loaded with metal bullets.

Clayson said, "Brad, I'm always very grateful for what you did, but I have a wife and children..."

Peter waved his hand. "I'm not asking you to kill anyone. Nolan's crew is filming on the streets, and there is a lot of personnel movement. There is no surveillance in this area of ​​the city center. If you have the right opportunity, change it quietly. If not, wait until later."

Clayson guessed his intentions, and after a long while, he said, "If something unexpected happens to Martin, the investigation will be very intense."

"You misunderstood me." Pete said, "You have been shooting gunfights these days, and Martin may cause others to encounter accidents."

Now that he has fallen into this situation, he is not afraid of losing anything anymore.
