On the set, which is set up as a seaside room, Martin stands on the side with a rope and a wooden chair, waiting for director Nolan to make a decision.

Nolan walked back and forth, occasionally going out the window to look outside.

Marion, who was dressed in a deep V evening dress, looked at Nolan and simply sat down in a chair.

She and Martin had been waiting for a while.

After a few moments, Martin asked, "Chris, to tie up or not to tie up?" ”

Nolan paused, thought for a moment, and said, "Bundle and unbundle each shoot once." ”

When shooting, the director will also come up with a lot of ideas, and it would be good to be able to use one-tenth of the shot in the finished film.

Nolan returned to the director's monitor, and with a command, filming began.

Martin and Marion entered the room, brought a chair and placed it in the middle of the room, and said, "Sit down." ”

Marion sat down in her chair and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

Martin wrapped the rope around the leg of the chair and tied a knot: "I'll go out and get some fresh air, you sit here and don't move, wait for me to come back." ”

He grabbed the rope, climbed up the window, and jumped.

"Stop." Nolan said: "This one is over, and then shoot the bundled." ”

Martin came around from behind to untie the rope.

Nolan's new assistant took a pen and a notebook, and then came to Nolan's side and said, "Director, there have been no tidbits to write about." ”

This assistant, because he wrote wonderful tidbits during "The Dark Knight", was promoted by Nolan to his side as an assistant director.

Nolan whispered, "Hold your breath, it'll be soon, because we have Martin." ”

The crew was reset.

Before the shooting, Martin said to Marion, as in the past: "I'm going to be offended in a moment, forgive me." ”

Marion smiled: "It's okay, we're all here for work." ”

Martin pushed open the door, took Marion into the room, moved a chair for her to sit on, shook off the rope in his hand, and tied Marion to the chair with great skill.

He had specially practiced with a prop master in the crew before, and after tying it up, Marion, who was not particularly prominent, suddenly became charming and sexy.

Martin tied the rope in the leg of the chair again, and in the middle of the conversation between the two, jumped off the window.

"Very good, this is over!" Nolan felt that the shooting was very good.

He didn't care about Martin, who went back to untie the rope for Marion, and beckoned to call his assistant: "During the shooting, Martin specialized in learning rope art in order to achieve the shooting effect required by the director and became a rope master. ”

The assistant picked up the pen and wrote it down in the notebook.

Martin helped Marion untie the rope and pulled her up, asking, "Are you alright?" ”

Marion smiled and said, "The craftsmanship is good, very artistic." ”

Martin also laughed: "I've been practicing for a while. ”

The two walked out of the set while talking.

The play of the Japanese-style palace comes to the last part, that is, the part where the palace collapses.

This scene means that the entire real scene built will be destroyed, and it will be very troublesome to appear in the NG shot.

Stuntmen are good to say, they basically don't show their faces.

Martin, as the leading actor, naturally has high standards.

Nolan deliberately asked him to rest for half an hour before starting filming.

Martin sat in his chair and emptied his brain.

Bruce came over and asked, "Do you need me to give you a massage?" ”

Martin told the truth: "I'm only used to women massaging me. ”

Bruce pointed to the pile, "I'll help you find one?" Among the helpers recruited by the crew from the local area, there are several girls who are particularly beautiful. “

Martin was curious: "Pretty and still come to help?" ”

"I heard that they are all from ordinary local families." Bruce has heard a lot of people in the crew talk about it in the past few days: "The crew pays local helpers in dollars, which is a high-paying job in Morocco." ”

Martin knows a little about this, and one of the conditions for the crew to get a large tax rebate and preferential policies in Morocco is to hire a large number of locals among extras and ordinary handymen.

"Arabs?" He asked.

"There are Arabs and there are Jews," Bruce said. He knew that Martin did not understand, and explained simply: "There are many Jewish families in Morocco, and not every Jewish family is rich. ”

"You know so much." Martin deliberately said: "Lao Bu, be careful, AIDS originated in Africa. ”

Bruce didn't hesitate to give Martin a middle finger.

After chatting with Lao Bu, Martin really relaxed, and as soon as the break time came, he immediately entered the set, and the stylist came to sort out the suit and makeup for him, and the shooting began again.

With the camera, the built real-life buildings continue to collapse.

Martin was also at his best, speeding through the halls to "dodge" the collapsing building.

After more than 20 shots, the palace building has been destroyed.

Then comes the final scene of the scene.

In the midst of Martin's rapid run, the prop master opened the water tank, and tens of thousands of gallons of water stored in advance rushed out.

Houses collapsed and flooded.

Martin stood on the landing of the stairs, drenched and soaked.

As soon as Nolan shouted to stop, without waiting for Bruce to act, at least six or seven crew assistants ran over with blankets.

The treatment of the crew's top name, naturally needless to say.

Martin wore a blanket over his body, held a piece in his hand, wiped his wet hair, and walked out of the set to get into the trailer to shower and change clothes.

When he came out again, Martin found Bruce waiting for him at the door.

"Thomas just called, and the White House has officially sent you an invitation to participate in this year's Independence Day celebration," Bruce said. ”

Martin immediately thought of the Santa Monica Pier incident and asked, "You're going to award me the Presidential Medal of Freedom?" ”

Bruce followed him forward: "It is certain that this time it is the Distinguished Presidential Medal of Freedom, which is divided into two parts: the Star Medal and the Grand Medal. ”

He added: "You can bring a female companion." ”

Martin counted the jet lag, asked for a cell phone from Bruce, and called Elizabeth Olsen.

"Hey dear, didn't you just call in the morning?" Elizabeth was in the studio watching Lily create Martin's award-winning sculpture.

Martin said simply: "Independence Day holiday is left for me, don't go out with your family, okay?" ”

Elizabeth's sweet laughter came from the earpiece: "Honey, are you going to take me on vacation?" I can go to Africa and find you. ”

Martin also laughed: "Let's meet in Washington, D.C., and the White House will tell me to go to the Independence Day celebration, and I'll award it then." ”

Such an important moment, of course, Elizabeth will not miss it: "Okay, I'll go with you." ”

She saw Lily in the carving stop what she was doing, quietly pricked up her ears to look at this side, deliberately raised her voice a little, and said, "Can you take Lily with you?" She's on summer vacation and doesn't want to go back to Atlanta......"

Martin didn't think much of it and said, "Yes, I'll ask Bruce to book a plane ticket and a room." ”

Elizabeth said, "I'm going to tell Lily, she'll be glad to hear it." She lowered her voice, "You have to be nice to Lily." ”

"I know." Martin saw Nolan's new assistant, the very discerning screenwriter, walking towards him and said, "I've got something to do right now, I'll call you later in the evening." “

Elizabeth answered and hung up.

Lily put down her tools, washed her hands, and then walked over and asked, "I heard you talk to Martin about me?" ”

"Oh, that's right, Martin got an invitation to the White House for the Independence Day celebrations......" Elizabeth roughly explained the matter: "You complained to me yesterday that you were bored after the summer vacation and wanted to go to Africa together, should we go to Washington first, and then go to Africa with Martin?" ”

Lily looked at Elizabeth and smiled without speaking.

Elizabeth felt that Lily on the other side was smiling like a cunning fox, but as if she didn't understand, as in the past, she pulled her upstairs and asked, "Aren't you going?" Witnessing Martin receive the Distinguished Presidential Medal of Freedom, do you want to miss? “

Lily looked at this silly peer and said, "Go, why don't you go." ”

"I was still in Washington when I was a kid." Elizabeth said nothing else than her vision for the journey: "Capitol Hill, Washington Monument...... I've forgotten what it looks like. ”

Lily simply sold stupidly: "I don't know if I can meet Russian spies, I still want to catch a few and get a medal." ”

Two girls with hearts and eyes like honeycombs came to the first floor with a smile, said to the housekeeper, went to the terrace on the third floor, and drank tea and chatted together.

Coming to the balcony, Lily noticed something unusual next door and said, "Charlize Theron seems to be arguing with her boyfriend." ”

Elizabeth said, "Her boyfriend is a superb, but unfortunately it's too far away to hear what they're saying......"

It was too far away, and the two could only be seen arguing in the courtyard, and Lily said, "I heard someone in the Dark Knight crew mention that this man is also domestic violence against Charlize. “

Elizabeth shook her head: "I don't know this very well, but in the gossip report I read the year before last, he scolded Charlize in public and disciplined her to tears." ”

These two people are drinking tea and eating melons, so comfortable.

…………

At Atlas Studios, the assistant director found Martin, put a few words on it, and asked, "Did you find anything worth writing down?" ”

Martin understood as soon as he heard it: "Are you writing tidbits? ”

"It's not a write-up, it's a real record!" The assistant director was very professional, and he emphasized one sentence and said, "Martin, you provided a lot of tidbits when filming The Dark Knight. ”

Martin smiled: "In this way, you write that I am very popular in Africa and regarded as an idol by countless Moroccans." ”

The assistant director scratched his head worriedly, and to be promoted to this position, the real tidbits are the key.

Martin said: "Here's a note, during filming, Martin took time off work to leave the crew and go to Washington for the Independence Day celebrations. ”

The assistant director paid attention to Martin and asked, "You're going to be honored again?" ”

Martin has been identified, saying: "Distinguished Presidential Medal of Freedom." ”

The assistant picked up the pen and hurriedly wrote it down in the notebook, not forgetting it: "Thank you, Martin, this tidbit will definitely attract attention." ”
