Chapter 646: Killing People and Killing Mouths
Outside a large bar at a junction south of Los Angeles to Long Beach, the roar of car engines is deafening, and it's not hard to tell from the sound that all four cars parked here have super-sized hearts — V8 engines.
Four muscle cars lined up in a row, which was extremely eye-catching.
As attractive as the car, there are also sexy and hotly dressed Latin girls on the scene, who seem to be as dazzling as embellishments in the steel jungle.
At the request of director Justin Lin, there was a camera that kept switching between their buttocks and breasts.
Just like all racing in the world, street racing is full of race girls.
The main camera is set up in front of the four cars through a high boom, and the camera shines through the special window panes, giving Matthew, Paul Walker, and two other actors a close-up.
The motor roared louder, and puffs of smoke came out of the rear of the car......
A race car girl stepped on high heels and twisted her sexy body to the front of four cars.
"OK!" Justin Lin shouted as he held up the megaphone, "This one has passed!"
Hearing his words, Matthew turned off the engine of the car, pushed the door and got out of the car, and they didn't just drive the race.
Justin Lin shouted again, "Set crew, prepare!"
The set designer of the set team immediately entered the car and set up a green screen behind the windows and driver's seat.
Matthew had nothing to do for the time being, and exchanged a few words with director Justin Lin about the next shooting, and a water glass was suddenly handed to him from behind.
He took the glass of water and took a sip, he just wanted to habitually say thank you, and found that the hand stretched out in front of him was slender and delicate, obviously not the hand of Bella Anderson.
Matthew turned to see Lily Collins looking at him with a grin in the back left.
"Lily......" Matthew was a little surprised, "why are you here?"
Taking the glass from Matthew's hand and screwing the lid on, Lily Collins stepped forward and stood next to him, before saying, "Alice Cullen's scene is finished, and I'm coming back from Portland, I heard that you guys are filming here tonight, so I came over to take a look." ”
"What about Bella?" asked Matthew.
Lily Collins held out a finger and pointed out in the distance, "Someone just called her, and she answered the phone, so I'm asking for your personal assistant job for the time being." ”
Matthew nodded, and Lily Collins tilted her head to look at him and asked, "Are you upset to see me?"
Looking at Lily Collins' delicate, pleasing, and pretty face, Matthew immediately said, "Of course happy, who would be unhappy to see Angel Lily?"
Lily Collins grinned and grabbed one of his arms and said, "It's better for you to be here, the crew of "Twilight" is a headache." ”
Matthew asked strangely, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Lily Collins didn't want to bother Matthew with all that, and said, "I can handle it, it's just a little annoying." ”
Matthew didn't ask much, in fact, when he was preparing for "Twilight", he had heard people talk about it, as the two most important actresses in the crew, Nina Dubrev and Lily Collins were quite incompatible with each other.
This situation is too common in Hollywood, he has never intervened, and if he wants to make a name for himself in Hollywood, if he can't even cope with this little trouble, he will encounter more detours in the future.
The two chatted for a while, and Lily Collins suddenly asked, "Matthew, is it true that Nina Dobrev said she was dating you?"
Matthew didn't care what other people thought about it, and casually said, "Sort of." ”
Lily Collins has been a fan of Matthew for a long time, and naturally knows a lot about Matthew's style, and when she heard what he said, she immediately nodded knowingly, "I understand." ”
"What do you understand?" asked Matthew, turning his head to look at her.
Lily Collins shook her little head and said, "Nina Dubrev is no different from Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba, just your temporary bed mate." ”
"You know so much. Matthew deliberately joked, "Should I throw you into the Pacific Ocean and kill people?"
Lily Collins' eyes widened, "Hey, hey, hey......" She let go of Matthew's arm, pointed to her face, and said, "I'm so pretty and cute, would you be willing to throw me in the sea to feed the fish?"
Matthew said seriously, "Of course I'm reluctant to open my eyes, but I'll close my eyes and throw it." ”
The four cars were at a distance, all of them were busy arranging nervously, several other actors were also idle, Matthew had not spoken a few more words to Lily Collins, and Paul Walker came to him.
"Matthew. Paul Walker looked at Lily Collins and asked curiously, "This is ......?"
Lily Collins took Matthew's arm again and said in a deliberately joking tone, "I'm Matthew's girlfriend, I know you, you're Paul Walker." ”
Paul Walker looked at Matthew curiously, his eyes full of surprise, as if asking when you will have a real girlfriend.
Matthew curled his fingers, flicked Lily Collins' head, and said, "She's joking with you." Immediately, he introduced Paul Walker, "This is Lily Collins, the schoolboy I rescued from the Demon Headmaster." ”
Lily Collins immediately said dissatisfied, "Elementary school boys, please, Matthew, I'm nineteen years old. ”
I don't know which car was started at this time, and the roar of the V8 engine was like a roaring beast, Lily Collins turned to look over there and screamed loudly like the onlookers.
After a few seconds, she stopped and looked at Matthew, then at Paul Walker, and said, "What's so strange about you guys? I'm a movie fan, so of course I'm excited to see the shoot." ”
Matthew shook his head helplessly and said to Paul Walker, "Leave her alone. ”
Paul Walker stopped paying attention to Lily Collins, who continued to babble, and asked Matthew, "I heard that Vin Diesel filed an application with the court asking the court to issue an injunction for us to stop using the name of the character Dominic Toretto and to suspend the infringement in filming?"
"There's such a thing. Matthew nodded slightly, "The court also routinely questioned the crew three days ago. ”
He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Vin Diesel won't cause trouble, Dominic Toretto is the role he plays, but the copyright is not in his hands, and the court has clearly rejected his application." ”
"This bald head is disgusting!" Paul Walker didn't have a good impression of Vin Diesel, "When he was on set, he was a-stirring stick, he was kicked out of the series, and he will continue to be a-stirring stick." ”
Matthew doesn't seem to care much, "Vin Diesel's future is basically over, and now he can only make a living in B-grade movies, which is probably done to disgust us on the one hand, and to see if there are any loopholes to exploit and earn a so-called settlement fee." ”
When he and David Ellison won the sequel rights to this series, they took into account a lot of circumstances, and they got 100% of the rights to the film, and there was no dispute.
Vin Diesel wanted to cause problems for the crew in terms of copyright, it was simply impossible.
Paul Walker was still a little annoyed, "I really want to shove Vin Diesel's bald head in his ass." ”
"Hey......" Lily Collins suddenly turned around and said to Matthew and Paul Walker, "okay with swearing in front of a girl?"
Matthew glared at her, "It's all about you." ”
Filming of the car seemed to be on hold, and the makeshift set was much quieter, so Bella Anderson approached him, leaned over to Matthew, and said, "Helen called, and Rolex sent an official letter asking you to be the brand's all-media ambassador starting in July of this year." ”
Matthew nodded, "I see." ”
Bella-Anderson added, "Helen will take a break from what she is doing tomorrow and go to the Rolex headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, to start new negotiations with them. ”
Matthew thought for a moment and said, "Bella, part of the work she is responsible for is up to you for the time being. He added, "Remember to give me a copy of each issue of the New York Times bestseller list." ”
Since he remembered his milky cousin last year, he has been paying attention to whether there is a book "The Hunger Games" in the newly listed, such as the acquisition of film copyrights, the sooner he sells, the more advantaged he has, otherwise when the book is really popular, not to mention the copyright fee paid, the competition from Hollywood peers alone will be a headache.
In terms of "The Hunger Games", he is not only focusing on "The Hunger Games", some time ago he has asked Helen Herman to find a gunman, and the two parties have signed a strict copyright agreement to let the gunman write a sadomasochistic love between Isabella Swan and Edward Cullen on the Internet for a very attractive pay.
At first, he only read the first dozen pages, or on his mobile phone, he didn't remember anything at all, so he could only give the super S/M of the domineering president falling in love with Mary Sue as the theme direction of the plot, and let the gunman enlarge the various tools and content scale to the maximum scale that the North American Internet can allow......
That's what he just said about having Bella Anderson take over part of Helen Herman's job on a temporary basis.
If the "Twilight" movie can be popular, this fanfic will also have the ability to attract people, and then he can operate it to his heart's content, whether it is gray or black or flying.
After confessing to Bella Anderson, Matthew was notified that it was time for him to go on the field to shoot.
He then walked into the set, got into a muscle car, and with the assistance of the stunt instructor, he constantly made movements such as turning directions, changing gears, and braking suddenly.
Matthew doesn't go on stage to shoot the drag racing scenes, and these shots are inserted into the speeding scenes through editing.
