As soon as the ten minutes arrived, the voice of director Villeneuve came out through the electronic loudspeaker: "Attention departments, prepare to start filming." ”

In the resting place, after adjusting the look, the stylist glanced at Martin, made sure that there was no problem, and hurriedly went to the side.

Martin had changed into a gray sports jacket and was on the set, sitting on a shabby couch.

Payne, the prop master, turns on the TV and plays a video of an ice hockey game.

Willenneuve looked over and asked, "Martin?" ”

Martin nodded.

The camera rotated along the slide, and Villeneuve glanced at the monitor in front of him and said, "Ready." ”

The scene reporter came to the camera to play the board, and the shooting began.

The scene to be filmed Martin has rehearsed several times and is familiar with it.

He picked up the beer bottle and slammed it directly on the edge of the low table, and the cap flew out.

The beer frothed and got his hand.

Martin took out a few tissues, wiped his hands clean, saw the tin box next to the tissue bag, opened the tin box and took out the plastic bag in it, looked at the powder contained in it, couldn't wait to open it, and poured some on the white paper.

The camera camera turns around and begins to give a close-up of Martin's face.

Martin let out a breath and leaned over with urgency on his face, then he looked up and shouted, "Stop! Stop shooting! ”

The rest of the crew watched it together, and it was generally the director who shouted to stop filming, and it was rare for actors to call it off.

Martin sealed the plastic bag and put it in the tin box, and then held the tin box in his hand.

Bruce and Martin had a tacit understanding, and at this time he went directly to the set and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Martin gestured to the blank piece of paper with his eyes: "Not quite right. ”

Bruce leaned over and sniffed it slightly, his face became solemn, and he leaned over and whispered, "It's not vitamins, it should be true." ”

Martin's gaze swept across the set, unnoticed.

Director Villeneuve had already walked over briskly, and he asked, "Martin, what's the situation?" ”

Martin pointed to the white paper: "Aren't these things made of vitamins as props?" How did it come true? “

Truly leaned over and looked at it, as an art industry practitioner, he was no stranger to this thing, and immediately realized that the paper was not a prop.

He got up and shouted, "Props, props!" ”

Payne immediately ran over: "Director? ”

Willneuve pointed to the blank paper: "You prepared these?" ”

"It's not." Payne said: "I asked for the vitamin tablets, but when I came back, I gave them to Brandon and he grinded them into powder. ”

Willneuve asked, "What about Brandon?" ”

No one answered at the scene.

The head of the crew's security department had already arrived, leaned over to Bruce, and said, "I informed the producers. ”

Villeneuve's power as a director is far less than that of Martin as a leading actor and producer.

Even at this moment, Bruce speaks better than he does.

But Villeneuve had to show an attitude, after all, he, the director, was the first person in charge of all departments of the crew, and the vitamins that were originally used as props turned out to be genuine, and they were almost used by the actors.

This actor is also the promoter of the project and the owner of the investment company!

Willneuve said, "Get Brandon right now!" ”

Payne hurried to find his companion.

Bruce winked, and the head of security followed with one of his men.

Martin handed the tin box to Bruce and returned to the rest area to wait.

Several security personnel came over and stood near him.

Although Villeneuve was a real director for the second time and directed a film in Hollywood for the first time, he still had the basic ability to control the scene, and immediately asked people from various departments to return to their respective positions and temporarily forbade them to leave the studio.

Soon, Graham, who was in the studio's office area, rushed over.

But Payne and the others didn't find Brandon for the time being.

There was no one in the prop group's dedicated compartment, and Brandon's dedicated prop pack disappeared at the same time.

Graham came over and asked Martin for advice: "Do you need to call the police?" ”

"Find someone first." Martin has an impression of Brandon that he had just left when the set was cleared, and it was only a few minutes before and after: "He didn't go far. ”

Graham's face was extremely serious, and this matter could be regarded as poisoning at best.

And the target is still Martin.

Villeneuve came over and said, "No one has been found yet. ”

The studio was brightly lit at the moment, and the security supervisor led people to search every corner, but found no trace of Brandon.

Bruce asked people to open a few doors, led people out of the studio, asked about the people outside, entered the small building next to it, and entered the men's public toilet.

The toilet has multiple separate compartments, one of which has a closed door.

The head of security leaned down to take a look at one of them, and shouted, "Brandon! Brandon ......"

There was a strange murmur from inside, but no one spoke.

Bruce's right hand was always on the side of the gun at his waist and he made a look: "Open the door." ”

A strong man kicked open the partition door with a bang.

Brandon was sitting on the toilet, wandering around the world, with his prop bag at his feet and two small transparent plastic bags on the floor.

The head of security said, "That's a lot. ”

Brandon wasn't very conscious, and his saliva was pouring out.

Bruce took multiple photos and videos in a row, and sent one to Martin, and Martin's phone called: "Send to the hospital, you follow the whole process, don't die in the crew." ”

"I understand." Bruce went over and patted Brandon on the face, tried his breathing again, and made sure that the person was just taking too many drugs and would not be in danger of life, so he carried Brandon out and drove him to a nearby hospital.

I have a lot of experience in dealing with similar situations here, and after a set of treatment measures, the person gradually stabilized.

The hospital quickly followed Bruce's request and put the person in a single room.

Bruce himself was in the hospital room.

Two security guards remained at the door of the ward.

Everything will have to wait for Brandon to wake up.

On the studio's side, the crew had an unexpected situation and could only temporarily suspend filming.

Martin had people save the video they had just taken, as well as the props on the blank paper.

Graham issued a gag order that no one should talk about it to the outside world.

Of course, this can only slow down the spread of the matter, and it is impossible to stop it from spreading.

There are dozens of staff members on the scene, and it is an industry like Hollywood, and there may be news informants among them.

Greniuve said: "I gave notice to go down and the filming was suspended for a day. ”

Graham looked at Martin: "Fortunately, you noticed it in time and there were no accidents. ”

Martin took out his phone and was looking through the address book, and he also knew some people from the Boston Police Department, who had come to experience the relationships that life had built, and they had been in touch over the years.

"It's not my luck." Martin told the truth: "It's our circle that is rotten and messy enough, and we can't tell the truth from the fake, and I'm already finished." ”

Graham nodded: "The other circles are similar. ”

Martin's cell phone rang, he glanced at the text message, and said, "The people over there are waking up, let's go over and see what is going on with Brandon." ”

Graham and Villeneuve followed Martin out of the studio.

The three of them arrived at the hospital in a commercial van.

When he came to the door of the ward, the security supervisor immediately greeted him and said, "Brandon has woken up, and Lao Bu is with him inside." ”

Martin was the first to enter the ward, followed by Glenham and Villeneuve.

Bruce leaned against the wall, staring at Brandon lying in a hospital bed.

Martin came in and glanced at Lao Bu.

Bruce whispered, "He doesn't know what's going on yet." ”

Brandon saw Martin, Graham and Greneuve's crew appear at the same time, and hurriedly said: "This time it's my problem, I have no opinion on the crew punishing me in any way, I promise that I will never touch those things in the crew in the future, and I will not cause trouble to the crew again." ”

Bruce had already turned on the audio and video recordings.

Martin asked, "You brought those things with the crew?" ”

"Yes." Brandon's prop bag was placed here, and he knew that he couldn't hide it, so he obediently admitted: "I didn't control it today, so I brought it into the crew." ”

Graham snapped, "Just today?" ”

Although Brandon was recruited by the crew, he had worked with Graham's company several times, hesitated for a moment, and said: "After the crew started filming, they have been carrying it." ”

Truly knew that he had no right to speak, and stayed by his side.

Anyway, his position has always been on the side of the two producers.

Martin looked at Bruce and didn't have to speak, so Bruce walked over and opened the tin box, revealing the plastic bag and powder inside, and asked, "This is yours, right?" ”

Brandon recognized it and nodded, "It's mine." ”

After saying that, his face turned white, and he recognized that the iron box was a prop for the crew or a prop for filming, and hurriedly defended: "No, I didn't put these things, but vitamins, how is it possible!" How can it be! ”

Martin just looked at him coldly.

Brandon panicked, remembered the stupid thing he had done during the seizure before, slapped his head hard, and said, "I didn't mean to, really!" It really wasn't meant to! I specially marked the bag of vitamins, and I won't take it wrong normally! At the time, I ...... I had a seizure, my head was a mess, and I took it wrong in a panic, and I took it wrong! ”

Graham said coldly: "Such an important prop, can it be explained by taking it wrong?" ”

Brandon hurriedly said: "It's really a mistake, I finished taking the props, and before the crew started filming, I hurriedly went to the partition of the public toilet, if Lao Bu hadn't found out early, I might have killed myself." ”

That sounds like some truth, and what Brandon did was more like a mistake at work than on purpose.

But Martin, a paranoid patient in the terminal stage of persecution paranoia, doesn't believe a word.

Even if he doesn't look at Brandon like a lie.

Graham said: "You are not fit to stay on the set anymore, and I will have people communicate with your agent and the agency. ”

"Mr. Kim!" Brandon wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Graham: "This is a very serious incident! ”

Brandon's face was pale, this thing has never been a problem in Hollywood, but because this thing caused problems to the crew, it was difficult to find a job later.

Martin handed Bruce his phone and left the room.

Bruce finally came out and called the police.
