American fame and fortune.

Chapter 402 Performance Art
Pulling out the chair, Saoirse Ronan sat opposite Martin. Martin stretched out his hand and pointed to the camera: "Show me."

"I didn't take pictures of you, I really didn't." Saoirse said, but she took off the camera from her hand and put it in front of Martin.

Martin remembers very clearly that this girl is very capable of making troubles, and she suddenly set up a "diaper door" at Pinewood Studios.

He flipped through the photos taken by the digital camera, and there was indeed no content here, so he pushed it back to her and asked, "Which crew are you in?"

Saoirse pointed to the studio next to her: "That's it."

Martin understood: "You played Daisy as a girl?"

Saoirse nodded again and again: "Yes, I have several scenes with you."

Martin also understood why she appeared here, and casually reminded: "Don't shoot indiscriminately on the set, this is not England, American directors are very fierce."

Saoirse quickly explained: "I didn't take the camera to shoot the crew, but to shoot the Michoud assembly plant."

Martin knew this was Michoud, but had never heard of the assembly plant, and asked, "What are you doing filming that?"

Saoirse looked around and found that Martin's trailer was big enough and high enough, and there was a ladder to climb to the top of the trailer. She pointed and said, "Shall we go up?"

Martin was also curious: "Yes."

Bruce was the first to get on top of the trailer and looked around, and Saoirse climbed up after hanging the camera.

Martin has to take into account the shape, and the speed of coming up is relatively slow.

The studio is located on a small hill. Standing on the trailer here, you can see the low wall and the river valley below the mountain.

Saoirse pointed to a factory building in the River Valley and said, "This is the place I want to shoot."

Martin pointed to the camera dangling on her chest: "Hurry up and take a picture, leave after taking the picture, don't cause trouble on my side."

Saoirse rolled her eyes: "I'm not a troublemaker." She didn't take the camera: "I don't want to shoot outside, I want to go inside to shoot."

Martin asked Bruce, "What's over there?"

Unexpectedly, Bruce had made preparations in advance: "It seems to be called Michoud Assembly Plant."

"Before I came to the United States, I studied New Orleans carefully. There are two most widespread rumors here." Saoirse is very curious and eager to explore. When she was at Pinewood Studios, she took a camera to take pictures everywhere. Ma Watson is making a big fuss.

She raised a finger: "The first one is the legend of various witches. I have already been to the cemetery of the voodoo queen Marie Lavaux."

Saoirse raised her second finger: "I found out on the Internet that the Michoud Equipment Factory belongs to NASA's secret base, which is specially used to make props and scenes for the moon landing. Many revealers revealed that the Americans have never Landed on the moon, and all the videos were shot here."

Martin's face became very exciting, and he asked, "You want to sneak in and take a picture?"

Saoirse's face was full of curiosity and prying desire: "Yes, take a picture, even if it's just one picture."

Martin said: "Have you ever considered one thing? If what you said is true, why has no tangible evidence ever leaked out? Because the people who broke in have been turned into experimental subjects, maybe they can be made into Voodoo doll."

Saoirse was stunned, she focused all her energy on the sneak shot, ignoring the others, and said, "It seems to be true."

Martin reminded her: "This is not the British Isles. It's dangerous for a girl to run around. Not every American is kind like me."

Saoirse raised the camera, opened the lens bag she carried with her, put on the long lens, quickly adjusted the teaching aids, and took some photos facing the assembly plant.

When the photo was finished, she found that there was only one person left on the roof of the car.

Martin sat back under the sun umbrella, blowing the wind leisurely.

Bruce went to the side to make a phone call.

Saoirse got out of the car, said hello to Martin, and left alone.

Soon, Bruce came back from the phone call with a very wonderful face.

"What happened?" Martin asked.

"Kim just called me." Bruce had nothing to hide from Martin: "The DVD sales were amazing, and Jin wanted to give me a share, which she said was hundreds of thousands of dollars."

Martin didn't focus on these things, and asked, "Sell a lot?"

Bruce nodded: "North American sales have exceeded 2000 million US dollars. Many TV stations are inviting Jin to be on the show. It seems that Oprah's talk show has also sent invitations. She seems to be hotter than you now."

Martin waved his hand: "It's different, the attraction of celebrity's privacy naturally has great influence."

Bruce said: "That's right, if you shoot a video, I guess your female fans will go crazy, and maybe the men will go crazy too."

Martin raised a middle finger in front of him: "If the share is legal income, you can decide for yourself."

Bruce thought for a few seconds: "I'm not short of money, so I don't want this kind of money."

In the afternoon, shooting continued.

The heroine Blanchett has not yet come from Los Angeles, and the crew is calm.

David Fincher was extremely satisfied with Martin's performance. As a teenager, Benjamin's performance was the most difficult, but with Martin, there was no difficulty at all.

He felt that Martin's field experience in the nursing home was very rewarding.An excellent and professional actor can save the director a lot of worry.

David Fincher suddenly understood why Scorsese and Nolan chose to work with Martin. Which director doesn't like such an actor?

And they're not shit sticks, and they don't have to coerce actors into doing shitty things.

The most important point is that Martin really has commercial appeal.

In the morning of the next day, two large red trucks painted with "Coca-Cola" drove into Michoud Studios, and the Atlanta headquarters specially ordered Coca-Cola for the crew arrived.

If it were to be replaced by another crew, it might be very troublesome. After all, proofing and plate making would have to be done all over again.

But in the crew where Martin played the leading role, that is, in the advertising sponsorship contract, an inconspicuous clause was added.

The driver of the big truck insisted on taking Martin for a photo after getting off the car.

They are all wearing the T-shirts of the Coke God Cult, obviously belonging to the followers of the Coke God Cult.

Coca-Cola sponsored millions of dollars. David Fincher heard the news and extended the crew's rest time to let Martin go out to take pictures with people.

Two drivers pulled up a banner at the door, which read "Coke God Religion Forever".

The crew specially sent a photographer to take a group photo, and it was over after the shooting.

Martin looked at the cameraman, at the screenwriter, and at David Fincher. If he was on the set of "The Dark Knight", he would have to make some real tidbits.

No wonder David Fincher is not as good as Nolan in business, and the business attribute is not a little bit worse.

David Fincher might not like real tidbits and the like, and Martin didn't say much. Instead, he approached the producer in charge of public relations and reminded him: "Can my look be released now?"

The producer had long thought about it: "Los Angeles is building up momentum for you. You just won the Best Actor award from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. With your popularity and the influence of the Coke God, I will release some photos of the crew. It will make more people pay attention to this film.”

Martin praised: "You are thoughtful."

The crew developed and printed the photos as quickly as possible. By the time Coca-Cola finished unloading the goods, the two drivers had already brought the photos to Martin for his autograph.

Martin finished signing, adjusted his state, and put all his energy into shooting.

The male protagonist has remained the same, but the female protagonist has changed. Elle Fanning finished filming her few scenes and left the show smoothly.

Saoirse Ronan became Daisy on set.

The cast is very good at picking people, especially the child stars, the two chosen are full of spiritual types.

Saoirse's acting skills are even better than Allie's.

During this period of time, the Martin family dominated the cast, and as long as he didn't take the initiative to provoke trouble, no one would provoke him.

Although Shia LaBeouf joined the crew early, he spends more time doing some inexplicable performance art.

One afternoon, he suddenly disguised himself as a hanged man and hung on a tree with a crooked neck behind the studio. The female costumer who was the first to spot him screamed and peed on his pants.

When everyone in the crew gathered around, the man untied the special rope, kicked off the plexiglass camouflage stool, got down unhurriedly, and said, "It's a bit hot today, I want to hang on a tree to blow the wind for a while, Cool off."

The whole crew was speechless for a while, and David Fincher was so angry that his hair almost stood on end.

But as the godson of DreamWorks, one of the three major investors, the other party could only severely reprimand him.

Originally, David Fincher thought that the biggest problem in the filming of the film came from the personal conflicts between Martin and Blanchett. Unexpectedly, Shia LaBeouf stole the scene.

After a scolding and a stern warning, David Fincher asked the crew to disperse and return to their posts.

If David Fincher hadn't stopped him, many people on the set would have wanted to beat the crap out of Shia LaBeouf.

The female costume designer glared angrily, wanting to rush up and bite Shia LaBeouf a few times.

Martin and Saoirse came out at the same time and went back to the set together.

Shia LaBeouf chased up from behind and asked, "Martin, do you think my artistic expression ability is okay?"

Martin was speechless, and said casually, "Very imaginative."

Shia LaBeouf began to push back: "You can get Nicholson's approval and become his little brother. Now that I have your approval, I will definitely get Nicholson's approval in the future..."

Martin heard a headache and hurried away from this guy.

Saoirse glanced back: "When I saw Transformers, I thought this guy was not normal." She pointed to her forehead and asked, "Is there something wrong here?"

Martin would not discuss Spielberg's illegitimate child with her, saying: "Perhaps the artist's thoughts are difficult for ordinary people to understand."

Saoirse asked, "Aren't you an artist?"

Martin said truthfully: "I am a star, a multi-millionaire, and maybe an artist in the future."

Saoirse thought of the ugly appearance of the hanged man: "It's okay if such an artist doesn't do it."
