802 The pit dug in the year (Supplement 10)

There is no Hollywood director who does not express envy and jealousy towards Director Mellon in private - how many directors can have sufficient funds and shoot willfully for several years?

At least, Director Portfield knows that he can't do it now.

And now, there is a chance to become the second director of Mellon, which is placed in front of him.

Director Portfield's eyes fell on the girls not far away, who were still very young, and would chase and fight in between shoots, or giggle and share a bag of snacks.

But now, they sat around a round table, one next to the other, very intimately, and several scripts were spread out on the table, and the girls bowed their heads, like a flock of fledglings, around the script, chattering.

Without looking closely, Director Portfield knew that they were discussing the script as much as they had done every time before.

Girls of this age are inevitably a little temperamental, but the good news is that after a period of filming, they have run in very well, and they know that in the crew, the most important thing is to shoot their own scenes.

And now, if Portfield were to remove one of them and stuff in a girl who came in through the back door, he knew exactly what would happen if it was tantamount to adding a drop of hot water to a boiling pan.

They will be resentful, they will start to hate each other, resentment, and these will become hidden dangers in the shooting.

Of course, he had another option: to create a new role for the actress recommended by Leohard.

But Leohard opened such favorable conditions, this girl's role cannot be just a passerby who appears once or twice.

Female number one is impossible, female two, or female three.

Add a supporting role with such an important role, and the entire script has to be rewritten.

Director Portfield couldn't help but smile bitterly, that means that all his preparations for the previous half a year are invalid, and half a month's filming will have to start all over again, and if the girls' run-in situation is not good, once the crew's filming comes to a standstill-

What he was still imagining just now, the attention of the people and the expectation of all the people, will be in vain in an instant,

Director Portfield took a deep breath and said seriously to Leohard, who was waiting for his reply on the other end of the microphone: "I'm sorry-"

Leohard's brow furrowed deeply, "Why?" ”

Why did he offer such favorable conditions, which is tantamount to a big pie falling from the sky, and Director Potter still refuses him?

Director Portfield was stunned by his question, explained in detail, a little troublesome, and in a panic, he blurted out: "You might as well go and see Director Christo's latest tweet." ”

Hanging up the phone, Director Portfield sat motionless, like a stone statue.

His assistant director made two cups of hot coffee, carefully brought it over, put one in front of him, picked up another cup himself, took a sip, and when he put down the cup, he was stunned when he saw the motionless coffee cup in front of Director Portfield.

Sensing that something was wrong with his old friend, he couldn't help but ask, "Potter, didn't the shooting go very well?" We were still discussing it just now, and if we're lucky, the first episode will be filmed in a month?! ”

Porterfield slowly turned his head and looked at his old partner with lost eyes: "Do you believe it?" I just turned down Leohardβ€”"

"Leohard. Hamilton. ”

Without waiting for the assistant director to answer, he continued in a low voice: "He is willing to play any role I direct, even the prince adapted from a fairy tale!" He's also willing to bring money into the groupβ€”"

As if his old friend wasn't surprised enough, he added half a sentence in a heavy tone: "There is no upper limit!" ”

Director Portfield slowly raised his eyes, and unexpectedly saw his old friend's half-open mouth, a surprised stupid look, he couldn't bear to look directly away, and said softly: "He wants to recommend his friend to join the crew of "The Handmaid's War"-"

The two were silent at the same time, and the assistant director, who knew his old friend's temper deeply, already understood why he would reject Leohard.

After a while, Director Portfield asked in a very small voice: "Am I a little stupid?" ”

The assistant director's voice was also very small, and he responded softly at a volume that only two people could hear: "Yes! ”

He paused, and decisively stabbed again: "It's not a little stupid, it's very stupid." ”

Director Portfield raised his head suddenly, looked at his expressionless old friend for a moment, the two of them suddenly laughed together, the assistant director patted him on the shoulder, stood up, and said with a smile: "It's useless to think too much, come on!" This year's Emmy Awards are waiting for us! ”

The deeper Potterfield's smile grew, he turned his head, put his hands around his lips, and yelled at the girls not far away, "Girls, prepare!" We're going to start fighting! ”

Looking at the girls who ran over lively, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart-

These silly girls, I'm afraid they will never know what Dad refused for them!

……

Leo Hard hung up the phone, his brow still furrowed, what did Director Portfield's words mean? Crystal? What does this have to do with director Christo?

He immediately opened Twitter, which he had not logged in to for almost half of his life, and searched around the circle of friends, but did not find a link to Director Christo's Twitter.

Leohard: "......"

Damn, this old boy actually retaliated with a tooth for a tooth and blacked him out!

He immediately slapped the summons bell on the table, and soon, his capable young butler appeared in front of him, Leohard tapped his fingers heavily on the table, and ordered without refusal: "Open your Twitter, and I'll see what Christo has posted." ”

Thanks to having a man who doesn't play his cards according to the rules and especially likes to block directors, Andrew and almost all the big-name directors in Hollywood pay attention to each other.

And the directors who can make a name for themselves in Hollywood, there is no fool, they have long understood a truth - if you run the master, you can't run the housekeeper, it's useless to find Leohard, just stare at his housekeeper!

Andrew's eyes rolled, thinking of the tweet of Director Christo that he saw in the morning, and handed over his mobile phone with a cautious face, and at the same time wondered in his heart, if the man dropped his mobile phone, could he take a public account?

Well, if the man refuses to pay, he will ask the hostess to judge!

Leohard took Andrew's mobile phone, swept it at a glance, and couldn't help but sigh, this old boy can really send, such a long paragraph, I really don't know where he got so many words.
