Chapter 122: The First Time with Martin Scorsese

"Yo-oh-"

Brooklyn, there was a banging sound in the gym on the set full of various fitness equipment, dark green military sandbags swayed in mid-air, Leonardo dodged while thrashing with concentration and concentration, he only had a white vest on his upper body, his hands were wearing thick red gloves, his golden hair was soaked with sweat, and one by one slipped down his forehead, wetting the gray cement floor. Although the muscles don't look extraordinarily exaggerated, the tough lines, coupled with Leonardo's own creamy temperament, are faintly more explosive in contrast.

After the official start of filming of "Get Away", Leonardo exercised under the request of Mister according to the arrangement of a professional team of physical trainers, fitness therapists and nutritionists, although the movie does not require him to have any scary muscles, but as the protagonist of a secret agent action movie, if there is no decent muscle, it seems a little unreasonable for the audience.

"That's right, that's it! At least like a fighter! ”

Although the two works are being filmed at the same time, for now, it doesn't really have much impact, "Get Away" is still in the preparation stage, and he doesn't need to spend more time on it at all, and the filming of "Atlantic Empire" has gradually entered the right track, and it doesn't need to invest too much energy. Of course, such a day will gradually fade away with the preparation of the movie, and whenever he looks at the dense arrangements for the next two months on the schedule, Xiansen feels his scalp tingle.

Seeing the director come to the gym, Leonardo hugged the sandbag that was swaying back and forth, stopped, wiped the sweat from his forehead while panting, and then took out a bottle of pure water from the water bag next to him and drank it with a clatter. Unlike Tom. Hanks's almost perverted ability to control, Leonardo still needs to accommodate a role, of course, Xiansen believes that sooner or later, Leonardo can also be like Tom. Like Hanks, it was only a matter of time before he skillfully interpreted a character with his own style.

"Leo, I need to see the mermaid line, it's a man's most lethal weapon."

This sentence was said to him by Xiansen before, the mermaid line, which is indeed a big problem for Leonardo, who has always disliked to maintain his body shape like a woman, but when Xiansen came to Leonardo with a professional team of up to ten people, he knew that this had become a problem that had to be overcome, and when Xiansen said to him that if he wanted to surpass Jack, he must surpass himself, Leonardo's mentality finally became serious, and the so-called mermaid line also appeared little by little in this beating.

"Oh, damn it, Director, I've finally found you."

Just as Xiansen was about to continue to praise Leonardo a few words, a familiar voice came from the door of the gym. Marceau bent down slightly, covered his lower abdomen and said, "Martin is here, in your office, you have an appointment with him." ”

Hearing this, Xiansen looked at the time on his watch, and it was indeed almost the time of the appointment, and he almost forgot it. Gesturing towards Leonardo to keep trying, Xiansen turned and walked over to Bella. Marceau's side said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I almost lost time." But Bella, your physique seems to be a little bad, my office is only a few miles away."

Before he finished speaking, he looked at Bella. Marceau's face was slightly embarrassed, and Xiansen suddenly realized a situation, a situation that only belongs to women, and then looked at Bella. The position of Marceau's hand, Xiansen decisively closed his mouth.

The gym was indeed not much away from Xiansen's office, and in about three or four minutes, he came to the door of the office, pushed the door open, and there was a person sitting on the sofa, a middle-aged man who looked a little lean. Wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, it looks like it has a smart taste.

As soon as he saw Xiansen, the man stood up with some excitement and greeted him.

"Hello Mister, I'm Martin. Scorsese, I'm also a director, maybe you haven't seen my work, but, I'm really obsessed with a few of your works, and I want to share my thoughts with you, you know"

Maybe it's a little excited, Martin. Scorsese spoke so quickly and incoherently that he didn't know what the thing was talking about, nodded pretendly, walked to his desk, picked up two mugs from the table, and turned back to Martin. Scorsese asked, "Orange juice or coffee?" ”

"Just boil water."

Maybe it's because he realizes that his performance is a little overdone, Martin. Scorsese was stunned when he heard Xiansen's question, then calmed down and gave an answer.

β€œplease!”

Pouring a glass of boiling water, Xiansen handed the mug to Martin. Scorsese, then turned around and bubbled coffee again, he didn't like coffee before, but then because of the needs of work, so he drank it, and he found that he seemed to be inseparable from coffee.

"Thank you!"

Quilt in hand, Martin. Scorsese took a sip lightly and moistened his throat, he was so excited just now that his throat hurt a little after a string of words.

"Hello, I'm Mister, I've read your analysis in the newspaper, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Walk to Martin. In front of Scorsese, Xiansen found a place to sit down, and then said, "I heard that you want to talk to me?" ”

"That's right, I hope I didn't miss you."

Martin. Scorsese nodded, took out a stack of manuscripts from the leather bag beside him, and said: "Director Mister, I saw a new shooting method from your "Atlantic Empire", and then through research, I found that this is a pseudo-montage method, to be honest, I have a hunch that this will bring a new concept to the TV drama circle, so I deliberately wrote something related to these shooting techniques, and I want to print these theories into a book." ”

After a pause, Martin. Scorsese continued: "I know that there is still a lot to be done about these theories, and this is a concept that was developed through your TV series, so all the ideas in this book should belong to you alone, so I wanted to have some deeper conversations with you about the concept of pseudo-montage, and hopefully print the book for sale in your name." ”

"The concept is an illusory thing, this is what you came up with, why did you think of publishing it under my name?"

Xiansen asked with a smile and continued: "You are a creator, it doesn't really matter where the inspiration comes from, if it is published in my name, I will not become a thief?" Also, for what you said to be perfect, to be honest, I can't give any advice on the substance of the surname, I'm not very proficient in theoretical academic language, so"

Hearing this, Martin. Scorsese laughed a little embarrassedly: "Haha, anyway, these concepts were created and used by the director for the first time, if I publish it under my own name, won't I become a thief too?" ”

"Looks like neither of us wants to be 'samplers'!"

Xiansen made a very cold joke, which was a mockery of a school shooting in the Chicago area of the United States this year, in which the suspect took three hostages with a sampler used in chemistry class. And the word thief has the meaning of sampler.

"Mist, there's something on the set that I want you to take care of."

While the two of them were having a good conversation, Bella. Marceau knocked on the door and walked in, towards Martin. Scorsese nodded, then walked over to Xiansen's side and whispered, "HBO TV has a person in charge, and Brent. Wilson has a bit of a conflict, you go and take a look. ”

Hearing this, Xiansen stood up and looked at Martin with some apologies. Scorsese said: "I'm sorry I need to take care of something. ”

"It's okay, I've said everything I need to say, so don't bother! Good bye! ”

Martin. Scorsese nodded consciously, waved his hand, and got up to leave.

Look at Martin. Scorsese's back, Xiansen suddenly blurted out and asked, "Martin, are you interested in going to the set to watch it together?" ”

"On the set? All right! ”

Without the slightest hesitation, Martin. Scorsese gave a very straightforward answer.

"Well, did I say the wrong thing?"

Looking at Martin, who became excited again. Scorsese, Xiansen's heart couldn't help but secretly think. (To be continued.) )
