Tuesday, a very ordinary morning.

Jessica accompanied Martin out of the apartment, got into the Volkswagen driven by Bruce, and prepared to go to Burbank for the audition.

The car drove less than a kilometer and turned into the underground parking lot next to it.

Mene drove another car and was waiting here.

Martin took off his hat, put it on Jessica's head, and said, "Be careful."

Under the light, Jessica's skin was so white that it reflected light, and she was slightly surprised: "Is it necessary to be so careful?"

Bruce said: "It is necessary."

Martin got into Mene's car and waited until Bruce left before driving out of the parking lot and following behind.

It's not that Martin is too careful, but during the audition at the wax museum last year, Adrian targeted Paris Hilton's ex-boyfriend, who was the top candidate at the time.

Today it's just the opposite, Martin is the top candidate for the audition.

There were no unexpected situations along the way. We arrived at Warner Studios, met Thomas, and entered the office building of Warner Studios together.

The crew of The Departed rented half a floor.

Wearing makeup for the audition today, the production assistant took Martin and Mene into the dressing room.

Bruce is guarding the door.

Thomas said: "What you have done is really complicated."

Bruce nodded: "It doesn't matter to ordinary people. Bad people who have done too many bad things will find it difficult to feel at ease if they don't do this."

Not only Martin, he also agrees with this.

If you mess with people a lot, you will naturally be afraid of being messed with.

Thomas looked at Bruce, and then looked at the foyer through the glass door of the dressing room, thinking that these two were born to be good partners.

Bruce pointed to the kettle carried by Jessica: "Don't let it out of your sight."

Before Jessica became an assistant, she was also involved in the acting industry. She nodded quickly: "I understand."

Thomas finally understood. Martin and Boo regarded the audition as a war, the kind of CIA that messed up things.

But considering all the shit these two people were involved in, it's not an exaggeration.

An hour later, Martin put on an old-fashioned suit and entered the audition room.

In the audition room, in addition to casting director Allen, director Scorsese, and a group of executive producers including Louise were sitting.

There are also five related households.

Supervisors from Warner Bros. and the Screen Actors Guild.

They have a very professional spirit. Each of them holds a game console and starts playing without being too eventful.

An assistant came over to prepare for the scene with Martin, but the audition was still about the conflict between Colin and his boss Franco.

In less than a minute, the audition was completed.

Scorsese did not let Martin leave, but asked photographers to take multiple makeup photos of him.

There is a difference between what the human eye sees and what is captured by a camera.

Scorsese looked back at the audition video, and then looked at the makeup photos, and the more he watched, the more satisfied he became.

His acting skills are online, he has a good image, he brings money into the group, and he works hard. Apart from being slightly less famous, he has no other shortcomings, which meets his requirements for actors.

"That's it." Scorsese stopped filming and looked at Martin: "Go to the dressing room and wait for a while."

Martin knew that the result of the audition would be decided on the spot, so he responded: "Okay."

After he left the audition room, Scorsese looked around and asked for the opinions of the investors: "For the role of Colin, I choose Martin Davis, what do you think?"

"Agree." Daniel, a representative of Warner Bros., and Louise of Pacific Pictures expressed their opinions one after another.

Casting director Allen said: "I agree."

Producer Graham King, focusing on Scorsese, raised his hand: "I agree."

The overall situation was decided, and everyone else agreed. Even Doug from Dyson Pictures voted in favor.

The attitude of the five game console users is just to watch and have no right to express their opinions.

Scorsese looked at Allen next to him: "Go and inform people."

Allen got up and left the audition room and walked towards the dressing room.

When Thomas saw her, he stood up.

Bruce knocked on the door, and Martin came out of the dressing room.

Not only Martin, but also Mene, Allen’s favorite, also came out at the same time.

Allen quietly nodded to Mene, then walked towards Martin with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, you have won the role of Colin Sullivan!"

"Yes!" Thomas waved his fist vigorously.

Martin came up to shake hands and thanked: "Thank you! Thank you, Director Allen."

"You're welcome." Allen specifically reminded: "One thing, go back and study the characters and scripts carefully. Don't watch the original movie, and don't be affected by the original version, because what we are shooting and producing is a completely different style of work."

Martin solemnly said: "I remember."

There were footsteps on the other side, and Matt Damon led two people into the corridor.

Martin saw Damon, and Damon saw Martin.

Damon walked towards Allen: "Hi, Director Allen."

Martin turned back to the dressing room to remove his makeup.

Damon exchanged greetings with Allen and subconsciously turned to look at Martin, only to meet another pair of eyes.

The owner of those eyes is looking behind him.

Possibly due to the body's stress protection response, Damon stretched out his belly and shrank his buttocks, making his butt so flat that it was almost invisible.

Bruce was bored, looked away, and sat back on the bench by the door.

Thomas watched Damon go to another dressing room and clapped his fist: "Martin will definitely catch up with him!"

Bruce feels that if Matt Damon is not as bad as Martin, he will definitely be caught up.

Soon, the makeup artist left, and Martin came out, hugged Bruce, Thomas and Jessica one by one, and said, "Thank you each and every one of you!"

This is true. He alone would not have been able to get this role.

The decisive factor in an audition is not just in the audition room, but the key to an actor's success is not just the actor himself.

This is a team victory.

Before noon, Mene's audition results came out.

Uncle Mene licked the casting director into obedience, and the audition was just a formality, and he successfully got the role, a black policeman who follows Colin Sullivan.

It's not now, and of course there will be no black people in Frank's Irish gang.

The only people who can use Mene are those on the police side.

At noon, Martin called Emily who was busy in the wanted studio, plus Thomas, Bruce and Mene, and he invited them to have lunch together.

This is also his team in Los Angeles.

Martin specially toasted everyone: "I was able to win a role on the crew of The Departed. Each of your work is crucial. We are a team. This is a team victory. Thank you to each of you!"

Bruce took the lead, and everyone clinked glasses with Martin.

When the meal was served, Martin said again: "Everyone does whatever you want."

Thomas was not in a hurry to start eating, and specifically reminded: "I won't talk about the crew of Wanted. That is your project, and you can only bully others. When you get to the crew of The Departed, you have to pay more attention. Matt Damon may not be the same."

Other ideas, Leonardo is not easy to get along with, there is another person you should focus on."

Martin heard these words. The level of quarrel between Hollywood male actors is far less than that of female actors, but it is not without fierce fights.

Thomas specifically named one person: "80% of the time the villain will be played by Jack Nicholson. This person is famously difficult to deal with."

Martin nodded and asked: "I know, he is famous for his bad temper. Because the car in front was blocking the road, he smashed the window glass of someone's car with a club, and he lost $500,000."

Menne asked: "I heard that he slept with 2,000 women in Hollywood?"

Thomas simply replied: "Nicholson, Marlon Brando and Warren Beatty are known as the three major playboys in Hollywood, and they are worthy of their name."

Mene is fascinated: "When I am over 60 years old, I don't know if I will have so many."

Bruce added: "There aren't that many female casting directors in Hollywood, right?"

Martin had another drink with everyone and said, "Don't worry, I will try my best to coexist peacefully with others."

Bruce was immediately alert, guessing that the crew would be very busy when they arrived.

Following Martin, I have experienced enough bad things, and Lao Bu is not afraid. Isn't it just messing with people or being messed with? He has rich experience.

After dinner, Martin gave Thomas a few words before leaving, asking him to collect some relevant information about Matt Damon and Jack Nicholson.
