Chapter 073: The Disaster of No Reason
Although hearing Eric's praise, Al only nodded slightly, he himself was still immersed in the previous love, and he did not plan to come out.
In this way, Eric did not say much and quickly directed the crew to prepare for the next shot.
At the end of the play, Edward thanked the audience, and Vivien stepped forward, as a girl who had not finished high school, she certainly could not hear the complexity of Edward's piano sounds. Leaning over the piano, Vivien complimented, "I didn't know you could play the piano?"
Edward smiled and stared at Vivien, "I only play for strangers." ”
Vivien was stunned for a moment, didn't delve into the reason, and moved to Edward's side: "I'm a little lonely upstairs alone. ”
Edward blinked quickly, sniffled slightly, turned around and sent the others away, and finally didn't forget to thank him, he was always so polite, even when he was ordering others.
Vivien couldn't help but ridicule Edward's behavior: "Are people always willing to listen to you?"
Edward didn't reply, but took the girl to him, and rested his head on Vivien wearily. It was the first time that the girl felt the weakness of this man, and for a while she was a little overwhelmed, so she could only follow her instinct and stroke Edward's hair, and her index finger traced the lines of the man's jacket.
Edward silently unbuttoned the girl's dressing gown and carried Vivien to the top of the piano. Vivien obediently allowed the man to kiss and caress her, and at this moment, the girl turned into a pool of spring water, silently invading Edward's dry emotional world.
The camera slowly zooms out until it is completely obscured by a pre-prepared obstacle.
But Al Pacino and Giulia didn't stop performing, and the two were still obsessed. Photographer Nikel Frank looked at Eric, got a hint in his eyes, and wisely turned off the camera. All the crew members in the audience looked at Eric silently and asked what to do next?
Knowing that he couldn't let things go wrong, Eric clapped his hands lightly and raised his voice and shouted, "OK, cut!"
Julia on the top of the piano heard the sound and was the first to break out of her confusion, glanced at Eric shyly and frightened, pushed Al away, straightened out her disheveled gown, and put her dressing gown back on. Al also came back to his senses, and when he saw the strange eyes of the crew around him, he could only smile awkwardly.
In order to defuse the awkward atmosphere, Eric hurriedly sent the others to prepare for the next scene.
"I'm sorry, Eric, I just had a gaffe. ”
Eric came up to Al and said with a smile: "No, Al, your performance is excellent, this is the most perfect state of an actor, oh, Julia's appearance just now is also excellent." In the end, Eric didn't forget to praise the girl next to him.
Julia didn't feel the joy of being praised, and her eyes dodged Eric's gaze: "I...... I'm going to touch up my makeup first. ”
After saying that, the girl left in a hurry, and Al was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with her?"
Eric spread his hands: "Maybe it's shy, I also think it's a little strange, she hasn't been like this in the previous few exciting love scenes, a woman's heart is a needle, who knows?"
In the ensuing shoot, Julia obviously made a lot of undue mistakes. However, one of the most important scenes of the day was passed to Eric's satisfaction, saving quite a lot of time. As a result, Eric's cousin is no longer so impatient.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the crew called it a day again, and Al smiled and found next to Julia, who was removing her makeup in the trailer: "Miss Roberts, are you free for the evening, a new French restaurant has just opened on Xenaga Avenue, and I want to invite you to dinner." ”
Julia paused, and the makeup artist and assistant were about to leave for a while, when Julia stopped the two of them and said to Al, "Mr. Pacino, can you wait a moment?"
"Of course, I'll be waiting for you outside. Al said, stepping out of the trailer.
A few minutes later, Julia took off her makeup and nodded to Al, who was waving at her, but walked to Eric, who was discussing things with her assistant Alan Fiessman.
……
"Let's prepare 50 group performances for this scene, and the polo team will find a more professional one. Anyway, the shoot is almost over, and we still have a good budget......" Eric was saying as he caught a glimpse of Julia walking towards him, nodding slightly to the girl, and then intently holding a pencil and drawing the text to discuss with Alan.
"Eric, Al is inviting me to dinner?" Julia's voice was a little low.
Assistant Alan raised his eyebrows slightly, he clearly felt the temptation in the girl's tone. Eric was originally focused on explaining some things to Allen, but when he heard Julia's words, he blurted out without going through his brain: "Go ahead, don't delay tomorrow's shooting." ”
The girl stood in place for a few seconds, staring at Eric in a daze, seeing that the man still didn't react much, Julia suddenly became very angry, this anger made her a little disregarded for a moment, the girl took two steps forward, and in Alan's surprised gaze, she raised her foot and kicked Eric in the shin hard.
Eric screamed and collapsed.
Allen, who saw Yiqiē in his eyes, was surprised to forget about helping Eric who fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly, and the calf muscles instantly tensed, those are high heels, how painful!
This woman can't be crazy!
Hearing Eric's screams, everyone who remained on the shooting set quickly gathered, and Julia immediately regretted it after kicking it out, but since she had done this kind of thing, the girl also had a love of breaking the jar and breaking it, pursed her lips and turned to leave. Julia's assistant, Alison Green, looked worriedly at Eric, who had been helped up, and followed behind Julia.
Allison drove the silent Julia back to the apartment.
Julia sat down on the living room couch after entering the house, and Alison carefully poured a glass of water for Julia and put it in front of the girl, and asked worriedly, "Julia, we're not going to get fired, are we?"
Thinking of the man's domineering and arrogant character, Julia was not sure what the outcome would be, held the glass, and whispered, "I'm sorry, Alison, I may have to trouble you." ”
"It's okay, it's a big deal to find another job. Allison is free and easy, if she changes jobs, she can only be an assistant, and she will not suffer too much: "But why are you kicking Mr. Williams?"
Julia took a flurry of water and didn't answer.
Alison tentatively asked, "It wasn't like he was stopping you from dating Mr. Al that you kicked him, right?"
Julia was still silent, and Allison took Julia's silence as a tacit acquiescence, and indignantly crusaded: "It's too much, you have only had a relationship once or twice, and you are not his confined, how can he restrict your freedom to love?"
Julia scratched her hair: "Alison, don't say it, it's okay...... Can I be quiet?"
"Oh, or else, I'll leave first, and call me for something. Julia, cheer up, you're not an unknown actor now, and even if you leave that bastard, you'll be able to get the movie. ”
"Allison ......"
"Okay, okay, I'll stop talking, I'll go first. ”
……
The location is still the crew, and Eric is sitting in a recliner surrounded by people. The trouser leg lifted, and the cool air was pumped from time to time with the pressure of the personal doctor.
"Mr. Williams, if you don't hurt your bones, just apply some medicine that invigorates blood and dispels blood stasis. However, it is definitely not convenient to move these days. ”
Eric said, "Thank you for making the trip, Dr. Grunt." ”
"You're welcome, it's okay to call me if you have something, I'll leave first. Dr. Grunt left a bottle of potion and turned away with the medicine box.
"Alright, let's go back, I'll just rest for a while. ”
The surrounding crew members gradually dispersed, and finally only Alan Fiessman and Al Pacino remained, and Al decided to stay and explain what had just happened to him.
He originally thought that Eric and Julia did not have any intimate relationship, and in addition to the resonance with Julia when he entered the play today, this flowery old man had the idea of hunting for Yan, but he didn't expect it to cause this result.
"Alan, I shouldn't have done anything hurtful just now, right?"
Alan saw the bruise on the boss's calf and quickly shook his head.
"So what's going on?"
Alan only followed Eric after forming the crew, and he didn't know much about Eric and Julia.
"Director, I don't know, it's just that Miss Roberts asked you a question, and you answered it casually, and then she ......"
Eric rubbed his temples in annoyance, "What did she just ask me, I was looking at the shooting watch, didn't I hear too clearly?"
Alan glanced at Al Pacino, not sure if to say it to his face.
Eric followed Alan's gaze and remembered that Julia seemed to mention Al in her words.
"I'm sorry, Eric, but I was going to invite Miss Roberts to dinner, but I didn't expect to cause a conflict between the two of you. Al calmly explained what had happened: "I thought the relationship between the two of you was not ...... It's not that intimate, that's why it's ...... It's me who is abrupt. ”
"Oh, I remember," Eric said suddenly, "Julia did ask me that question, Alan, how did I answer?"
Alan glanced at Al and Eric, and said truthfully, "You just said to Miss Roberts: Go ahead, don't delay tomorrow's shooting." ”
"Nothing else?"
Alan nodded affirmatively: "No." ”
The three men looked at Eric's calves at the same time with strange expressions.
Eric smiled bitterly, "It's a disaster." ”
