章 9: chapter 009
"Goodbye dad and mom."
Martin waved goodbye to his family and got into Nancy's car.
"Isn't it exciting, a feeling of being free from bondage?" Nancy said with a smile.
"A little, and a little sad."
"It's okay, it's just because you're leaving home for the first time and you'll get used to it soon."
"No, Aunt Nancy, you misunderstood, I'm just sad that I won't be able to eat Aranda's food for a while!"
"Cluck, well, little one, I underestimated you."
After the joke, Nancy's tone suddenly became serious.
She said: "Martin, I have to remind you in advance that Hollywood is not as glamorous as it seems, and this circle is more about du goods, alcoholism, promiscuity, and even a lot of coercion and inducements…"
Martin listened carefully to Nancy's words, and then smiled: "Aunt Nancy, I understand that sharp thorns are always hidden under the rose bush, and filth and sin are hidden under the glamorous exterior of Vanity Fair – because it is a place where desires intertwine!" "
But I love it!
Martin secretly added in his heart.
The more chaotic and degenerate, the more intertwined desires, the more we are the place where our succubus yearns!!
Nancy was stunned, she didn't expect little Martin to say such a thing, really a little ghost.
"Since you know, then don't blame Aunt Nancy for taking care of you."
"No, I know you're all good for me."
Nancy nodded, Martin was really more sensible than his two daughters, and Grant was really a lucky guy.
Nancy did not take Martin directly to the crew, but first came to her studio in Hollywood.
"Sit, drink something?"
"Is there any wine, I want to taste it."
"To be beautiful, only milk and juice."
"Okay, juice then. Hey, Aunt Nancy, what kind of look are you, I'm just kidding. "
"Hmph, I will write this matter down in a small book, if you are not satisfied with the performance of the crew, I will tell your father."
"Okay, okay, Aunt Nancy, I'll behave well."
Nancy poured a glass of juice and handed it to Martin, then took a folder out of the office drawer and opened it, saying to Martin
"This is your script contract and actor contract, Grant has signed it, this one is going to be sent to Disney, do you want to see it, I guess your dad must not have shown it to you?"
"Of course I want to see, yes, Dad still treats me like a child."
"Give, be careful, don't spill juice on it."
"Ann la!"
Martin took the two documents and looked at them.
The script was licensed to Aunt Nancy for free, and it was one of the chips that Aunt Nancy used to negotiate with Disney.
In terms of actor contracts, his salary is 100,000 US dollars + 5% box office share, which is Martin's most satisfactory part.
"Well, Aunt Martin, this contract says that I still have to study with a tutor in the crew, doesn't it?"
"Why, you want to skip class?"
"I just want to take it easy once in a while, you know, my homework in school has always been straight A's, and I've been studying long before the ninth grade curriculum."
Nancy nodded, she knew that Martin's studies were very good, especially in the past year, his study progress had improved by leaps and bounds, as if his IQ had suddenly jumped a lot.
Not only did I complete all the seventh-grade and eighth-grade classes ahead of schedule, but now I have started studying the ninth grade curriculum.
The most amazing thing is that he did all this himself, that is, he taught himself.
What a terrible ability to learn!
Don't know what Grant is worried about?
Thinking of the two scumbag daughters in his family – the most talked about every day is not which boy is more handsome, or what clothes to wear today, completely compared by Martin, Nancy suddenly soured again.
She glared at Martin with a serious face: "This is impossible, even if your aunt wants to give you ease, the Child Labor Act will not allow it, and the people from the American Children's Association will visit the crew regularly, and we don't want to be fined." "
(PS: To tell the joke, the United States was the first country to enact the Child Labor Act, and it is one of the worst used countries in the country, and it still does.) ）
"Alright!" Martin shrugged his shoulders and changed the subject, "Aunt Nancy, who are you going to find to play my parents?" "
"For the role of father, we chose Dennis Quaid."
"As for the mother, we were looking for Julia Roberts, but her asking price was too high, so we chose Natasha Richardson. Her acting skills are good, and she is cheap. "
"As for the role of the third person who wants to take away your father in the play, we chose Elaine Haddrix, an actor who is more charming, often plays the role of mistress, cheater, secretary, and has experience."
"You know, we have limited shooting time, and it's best to find actors who can fit the role so that the shooting can go smoothly, so Martin, you better not hold me back."
"Anla, Anla, Aunt Nancy, you don't have to worry about me."
"By the way, Martin, since you want to step into this circle, then a reliable agent is a must, and your parents and I will help you pay attention to this."
"Okay, I'm okay."
...
The time gradually comes to December.
The City of Angels is also gradually moving from warm autumn to cool winter.
The clothes of pedestrians on the street have also changed from cool T-shirts and suspenders to long-sleeved T-shirts and long-sleeved shirts, and California's winter is not cold.
Located in the San Bernardino National Forest in eastern Los Angeles, the "Born a Couple" crew is filming here.
"Okay, the next shot of fencing, Martin, Martin!" Nancy was yelling.
It seems that anyone's temper will get worse as soon as they become a director, and Nancy is no exception.
I've had a lot of problems with recent filming :
First, the main photographer had a car accident, and although the person was not in a big deal, he was forced to take the guy seven days off to let him deal with insurance compensation.
Then there was a problem with the communication between the crew and the scenic spot management office, and the original site could not be used, so it could only be changed to the current forest.
Finally, those little actors, as we all know, the scenes of "children" are the most difficult to shoot, it is difficult for you to control them, and what is more frightening is that there are a group of "children", laughing, crying, playing, and even secretly falling in love, damn it, you are only 11 years old!
The only thing that made Nancy feel happy was Martin, this kid really did what he promised, and didn't let himself worry at all.
Especially the acting problem that he was most worried about, Martin also performed unexpectedly well, and even the assistant producer sent by Disney to supervise the group praised, "This child is a natural actor."
"It's coming!" Martin, dressed in a fencing suit, trotted out of his exclusive motorhome.
