Chapter 26 An unexpected birth
After the sun rose, the weather was somewhat hot, and Robert carried a box of glass bottles of Coke to the set.
After finishing his job as a background artist yesterday, he asked Martin for help and got a job as a temporary stage clerk on the crew, which always provided him with extra income.
Robert held the open box and turned to look at the filming studio not far away. Martin was pushing the grass into the stable.
The role is very simple and he can handle it easily, but he has no chance.
Martin suddenly climbed up? Robert couldn't understand. During the filming of the last movie, he discovered that Martin even defaulted on his dues.
Jerome strongly recommends people in debt? Where is the fairness!
No one gave him any lines he wanted.
Robert came to the resting area under the shade of trees and sun umbrellas. According to the crew's requirements, Coca-Cola should be placed on the table so that people can access it at any time.
He put down the box and found a pack of tissues.
When unloading, the idiot driver broke the bottle of olive oil and a lot of it fell on top of the coke.
Robert's ambition is to be an actor, not to be a handyman on the set. Naturally, he doesn't take it seriously when wiping bottles, he just wipes it casually with a tissue.
After placing the Coke, he picked up the empty box and left to assist the driver in delivering lunch materials.
Almost at the same time, the male protagonists Adam Smith and Kyle came out of the dressing room and walked towards the temporary resting area.
The latter had a barefoot action scene to shoot, so he simply wore slippers.
Adam Smith, who had dazzling blond hair, asked as he walked: "Where did Martin Davis come from? I've never seen him before."
Kyle got to know his colleagues who spoke civilized words: "The idiot from the Marietta Theater Company allegedly stole Andrew's relationship."
Adam Smith stared over there: "This name is very familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere."
"A scumbag who is a gangster, he actually brought a gun to the set and threatened me with a gun!" Kyle encouraged: "Adam, I am your cousin, you have to help me!"
Adam Smith warned: "Don't cause trouble. If you hadn't been able to ride a horse, the crew wouldn't have used you."
Kyle was dissatisfied: "You are the leading actor who supports the film, and the film is guaranteed to receive ratings on cable channels. What are you afraid of? Are you afraid of that idiot?"
Adam Smith just pretended not to hear these words. It was Kyle who had the conflict, not him.
A small supporting role, there is no conflict of interest with him as the leading actor.
A fool with a simple mind and well-developed limbs can't even sow discord.
Adam Smith saw a car at this time, a black BMW 7, and said to himself: "The boss is here?"
The BMW was parked in the distance, and Kelly Gray, wearing a white professional uniform, walked towards this side.
Kyle was the first to arrive at the temporary resting place, saw the Coke on the table, took the straw from the box, and reached for the bottle of Coke.
His hand touched the glass bottle, and the greasy grease made Kyle shrink his hand subconsciously. The Coke bottle fell over and rolled off the table.
A happy young man who has practiced football professionally subconsciously stretches his feet to catch the glass bottle.
The heavy bottle hit the foot that was only wearing slippers, and a scream came from Kyle's mouth.
He sat down on the ground, hugged his feet, and groaned in pain.
Adam Smith rushed over from behind and asked: "What's wrong?"
Kyle's face twisted in pain: "Hurry up and call a doctor for my foot! My foot hurts so much!"
Adam Smith immediately called the stage manager to call the doctor.
The movement here alarmed the crew and boss Kelly Gray who were filming.
The crew's doctor determined that a small bone in Kyle's foot may have been cracked or fractured, and it was best to send him to the hospital immediately.
Director Benjamin Galvin was furious and almost pointed at Kyle's nose and scolded him Shabi.
Kelly Gray is also very unhappy. Not to mention the medical expenses caused by the actor's injury, what will happen to his scenes?
After Kyle was sent away, Benjamin got angry again: "I carefully designed a horse scene and specifically selected an actor who could ride a horse and had decent appearance. But what happened? This idiot broke his own foot.
What should I do? What should I do?"
Martin has always stayed in the outer crowd.
Kelly Gray said: "Don't say angry words, solve the problem first."
Benjamin suppressed his temper, thought for a while, and said: "The scene that that idiot shot before was scrapped. It's a pity that my carefully designed circus was cancelled."
Kelly Gray asked: "Can't it be given to another role?"
Benjamin explained: "We need a lot of panoramic shots of riding horses. How can we find actors on the crew who can gallop on horses?"
The horse has been rented, and the rent is higher than the salaries of the male and female supporting actors combined.
When this happened, Adam Smith couldn't speak to Kyle. He recommended Kyle, but the key to Kyle getting the role was that he could ride a horse.
…………
Martin quietly left the rest area and found Jerome: "Captain, have you seen the emergency situation on the crew?"
Jerome said: "I have always been."
Martin was straightforward: "Captain, actually I can ride a horse."
"You?" Jerome didn't believe it: "Why would you?"
Martin talked nonsense: "Our family lived in Texas for a while and learned it on the ranch there."
Jerome had heard of Jack Davis, so he nodded in approval and said, "Don't you know Andrew?"
"You are my team leader, the team leader I respect the most. I dare not make the decision on such a big matter alone." As an actor with a supporting role in the background, he took the initiative to approach the crew and asked for additional scenes. There was something wrong with his head.<
/p>
If not, you might get into trouble with the crew.
Martin will not make such a mistake: "The only one I can rely on and trust is you, the leader."
Jerome patted Martin on the shoulder: "Leave it to me."
Martin emphasized his tone and said with gratitude: "Captain!"
Jerome waved his hand, walked forward without hesitation, found Andrew, pulled him to a quiet place, and whispered.
Not only for Martin, but also for his troupe.
After Martin got a significant role from the crew, the number of extras who called him wanting to join the troupe increased sharply.
After the two discussed, Andrew saw director Benjamin talking to boss Kelly and hurried over.
Opportunity to show your face.
Andrew took advantage of the two bosses to finish talking and interjected: "Director, some of our main actors can ride horses."
"Who?" Benjamin didn't want to give up the carefully designed circus.
After all, the rent is all spent.
Andrew controlled his eyes from drifting towards his boss Kelly Gray: "Martin Davis."
When Kelly Gray heard the name, she immediately thought of that interesting young man and asked: "Martin from Marietta Troupe."
Andrew said: "It's him."
Benjamin asked Kelly: "Do you know Martin?"
Kelly said: "A very interesting friend."
Thinking of that bastard, Benjamin laughed: "He is indeed a very interesting actor." He said to Andrew: "Call Martin over and ask the horse trainer to take the horse to the racecourse."
In less than two minutes, Martin hurried over with Andrew: "Director, I'm here."
He then greeted Kelly Gray: "Good morning, Kelly."
Kelly Gray smiled at him: "You know a lot."
Martin said: "Poor people can only learn more."
Kelly Gray agrees: "Those who work hard can achieve success."
The trainer led the horse to the racecourse. Martin followed the trainer's instructions, put on professional clothes and a helmet, and got familiar with the horse for a period of time. With the trainer's assistance, he got on the horse and walked slowly around the racecourse.
Start trotting after one lap.
Horse riding was something he learned when he was a martial artist in his previous life, but it has not been used for a long time. Martin needs to get familiar with the horses and find his own rhythm.
After running around for a while, Benjamin asked: "You can control two people riding together."
Martin had a bad feeling, but nodded: "No problem."
It’s hard to win. Even if there are special features, you still have to grit your teeth and hold on.
Benjamin called the screenwriter directly: "Give Billy the circus."
Martin's scene had already been filmed, but due to the circus, his salary for the additional scenes increased to US$800 a day.
Adam Smith was standing not far away. He heard Benjamin's words and saw Martin talking and laughing with Kelly after dismounting. He thought thoughtfully: "Small supporting role?"
At the end of the day for the crew, Martin got into the Ford, picked up Robert, who was hitchhiking, and prepared to return to Marietta.
Robert suddenly said: "I did something, don't tell anyone else."
Martin was curious: "What happened?"
Robert looked at the left and right windows and lowered his voice again: "I put those Cokes there."
"You let it go?" Martin remembered that he mentioned to Robert that he could ride a horse.
Robert looked serious: "Yes."
"Man, you don't have to take such a big risk for me." Martin suspected that this was not a coincidence: "I just recommended you to take a temporary stage job, but you gave me such a big reward."
Robert quickly denied: "No, I didn't!"
Martin understood: "I understand, you didn't do anything. It's the idiot who has a problem with his hands and feet, and it has nothing to do with you."
Robert spread his hands and defended: "I really didn't mean it! I really didn't!"
