"Kerry, I want to say sorry to you. Bayi≧novel.com ≤﹤<<≦"

After listening to Carey Mulligan's sobbing description, Mike sighed, his tone full of sincerity, "It was my client who got the heroine."

Carey Mulligan looked over immediately, his eyes wide.

Mike had already figured out what to do, "You know her, Murphy's former assistant, Jessica Chastain. She is now my contract client."

"Her?" Carey Mulligan's gloomy face darkened even more, "You..."

As if he didn't see Carey Mulligan's face, and didn't hear her words, Mike said to himself, "Kerry, don't complain about this kind of thing, and don't go to Murphy, Jesse will take care of him. It's been a long time..."

He deliberately emphasized the following words, "Personal assistant, isn't it normal for him to choose Jesse and give up others?"

This sentence immediately diverted Carey Mulligan's attention, she turned her head and looked into the distance silently.

"Hollywood is like this." Mike said again, "Everyone will choose someone who is close to him."

Carey Mulligan sat in the co-pilot, wondering what to think, and after a while, he said, "Mike, can you send me to Santa Monica?"

"Of course." Mike nodded without hesitation. If I remember correctly, Murphy Stanton's new home is there.

Among the group of brokers who walked out of the closing room together, he was originally the most promising one, and his ability was also recognized by the company and everyone, otherwise Bill Rosses would not have asked him to go to see potential clients with him at that time. But everything has changed.

He knows what Bill Rossis' status depends on.

These may not drag Murphy Stanton down, they will definitely affect him, and he doesn't need to do anything.

Putting down Carey Mulligan in the valley area of ​​Santa Monica, Mike drove towards Century City in a happy mood.

After opening the door and returning home, Carey Mulligan walked into the living room of the main building, kicked off his sneakers, saw Murphy's photo frame placed on the porch, grabbed it without thinking, and threw it out. Throw it on the carpet and it won't break.

Suddenly her cell phone rang,

Picking it up to take a look, it was Bill Rossis, the manager. After connecting, he heard a few words from the other side, his gloomy face did not improve at all, "Just for these inexplicable things? Liz is my best friend! How can you do that?"

Carey Mulligan raised his voice again, "Don't tell me what real Hollywood is like! I can see it myself! I'm not blind!"

After hanging up the phone, she casually dropped the phone on the ground.

Throwing herself down on the long sand, Carey Mulligan buried her face in a pillow, tears kept streaming down her face, feeling that she had been greatly wronged, and she didn't know how to explain to Elizabeth Banks.

Liz was so kind to her. Although she only tried to persuade her when she had a conflict with Keira Knightley, after that day, she stood by her side without hesitation and defended her in everything.

How could they treat such a good friend of hers, such a good person!

After receiving a call from Bill Rosses, Murphy went straight home. When he walked into the small building, he saw Carey Mulligan lying on the sand and sobbing, and sat beside him.

"Still angry?" Murphy stroked her shoulder.

Carey Mulligan looked up, his face was already stained, but he glared, "I don't want to talk to you!"

"Hey, honey." Murphy had no experience in dealing with such situations, so he could only comfort him, "Don't be angry, okay? I didn't mean to drive you away. The situation at the time was not suitable for talking about this matter."

How could a woman listen to these reasonable explanations at such a time? Carey Mulligan turned over and sat up, no more tears on his face, just gloomy blackness.

Murphy said patiently, "Did Bill call you?"

Carey Murray was still glaring and didn't speak at all.

"I do the same..."

"For me?" Carey Mulligan interrupted Murphy. "The whole world is for me! Julian Fellowes! My parents! You too!"

After speaking, she grabbed the pillow and threw it on Murphy, turned around and ran to the stairs, and went straight upstairs.

When Murphy picked up the pillow on the ground, there was a loud closing sound from upstairs. The loud bang seemed to shake the whole building down.

Just about to go upstairs to explain a few more words, Murphy saw the mobile phone still on the carpet. After picking it up, he found something else near the coffee table.

Put the mobile phone on the coffee table, bent down to pick up the photo frame, Murphy turned it over and took a look, the photo frame was not broken, but there was a big crack in the outer glass, which happened to pass through him in the photo, dividing him into in two parts.

"Bang!" "Bang!"

There was a commotion upstairs and the sound of something falling. Murphy sighed, put down the photo frame, picked up the phone, and walked towards the stairs.

This was the first time he had a real conflict with Carey Mulligan. At the beginning, Murphy was able to persuade patiently, but he was also provoked by Carey Mulligan later. In his early teens, he was also young and energetic, and from his and Bill Ross's perspective, Carey Mulligan seemed more vexatious.

In the next few days, Carey Mulligan locked himself in the master bedroom when he got home, and did not talk to him. Murphy simply moved into a bedroom in the annex temporarily, intending to wait for Carey Mulligan to calm down. Let's talk after we get down.

But the girl's rebellion was just as Murphy expected, and she didn't speak a word to him for nearly a week.

At the beginning, Murphy was still creating and looking for opportunities to ease conflicts and reconcile, but as time went by, more and more preparations were made for "Planet Terror". He, the director, needs to be personally involved, and gradually put this matter aside for the time being.

He left Los Angeles with Erica Steinberg, Kim Kleiman, Paul Wilson, Phil Raschel, David Robbie and Helena Espora for California and Neda A wilderness area at the border between China and China, inspecting locations suitable for shooting needs.

Completely different from the previous two films, "Planet Terror" has a large number of location shots, and quite a few action scenes have to be shot on location.

Two commercial vehicles were parked by a bridge, and Murphy was the first to get off the vehicle, walked to the bridge and leaned on the rusty metal guardrail, looked down at the somewhat dark river, and then looked to the other side, where there was a Barbed wire fence, behind is a large typical wilderness clearing, with no end in sight.

"Helen, Philip," Murphy called the two over, pointing to the barbed wire, "How about setting up a barbecue restaurant over there?"

"There was no problem with the setting," Helena Espora said.

Philip Lascher looked up with dazzling eyes, "The sun will shine directly on this side in the afternoon, which will affect the framing of the distant view, making it difficult to adjust the color in post-production."

Murphy nodded, "At that time, fine-tune the plan and put the long-range shot in the morning."

All the shots of this film are taken in the dark, but the shooting will not do this. Basically, they will be shot during the day, and then the Da Vinci color palette will be used for color correction.

Erica Steinberg also followed, and the four of them had a brief discussion, and they determined this place as the location for the barbecue restaurant.

"Where's the town?" Helena Espora asked, "Shall we also set up the scene?"

"No, no, no!" Kim Kleiman, who had been standing behind the four people without speaking, jumped out, "The cost of setting up the scene is too high, and it will be budgeted!"

Any plan that may have a budget is the object of his strong opposition.

He stood on the bridge and pointed to the east, "I've been here once before. There's a small town over there. It's located in a remote location. It hasn't been repaired all year round. It looks dilapidated..."

Seeing several people looking over, he said again, "Murphy, I think that town is very suitable for your shooting requirements."

Before Murphy and the others came, representatives of the guarantee company and a location producer under Erica Steinberg visited many places nearby.

It would be better if you don't need to build a scene, Murphy nodded, and walked towards the car, "Let's go and have a look."

The town is located about five miles away. It is very small. Perhaps it is more appropriate to say that it is a small village. Murphy and his party went around in a circle, making sure that it is not bad, and got in touch with the management agency of the town. As shown in Hollywood movies, people in remote places are always hostile to outsiders. On the contrary, they welcome Murphy and his party very much, and readily agree to cooperate with the filming.

In fact, the situation is not complicated. The crew is not filming here for free, and there will definitely be a fee, and so many people eat and drink, and it can also bring some income to the town.

After spending five days in California and Nevada, Murphy finished all the location shooting and returned to Los Angeles. In addition to continuing to prepare the film, he also met with the international filmmakers brought by Harvey Weinstein. After all, part of the investment in the follow-up of the film comes from overseas pre-sales, and it is necessary to give these peddlers some confidence.

"Director Stanton, we are very much looking forward to your new work."

A representative from an Israeli film company expressed enthusiasm, ""Saw" is very popular in Israel, if possible, when "Planet Terror" is released, I hope you can go to Israel with the crew to promote it. "

"I hope so too." Murphy could only respond vaguely.

This is a film invested and produced by Miramax. Whether it will be promoted overseas, and if so, how it will be shaped, is up to Miramax to formulate.

After sending these overseas businessmen away, and giving the crew a Christmas holiday, the new year has just begun, and Murphy led the crew to leave Los Angeles and start the filming journey. (To be continued.)
