Chapter 852: Don’t your conscience hurt if you cheat me like this?

 Mexico, Baja California.

A week before the Oscars, Martin came to Rosarito.

This is home to Hollywood’s largest studio area in Mexico.

 Many sailing films, including "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "The Great Sea", scenes involving sea voyages and naval battles were basically shot here.

 Because it has what is known as the world’s largest infinity pool for photography.

 The builder of the pool was James Cameron.

That's right, it was the first artificial lake dug out for the filming of "Titanic".

  The most recommended beach shooting location by the location team is also in Rosarito Island.

Rosarito Island can become Hollywood's largest production area in Mexico. In addition to the studio area with the infinity pool as the core, it is also because it has clear sea water and golden beaches, making it a resort for water sports.

 Martin went around to the back, massaged her shoulders, and said, "It's been a hard work these past few months."

This studio area is often used by Hollywood crews to shoot water-related scenes, and many studios have large pools.

 Surrounding the huge pool, the studio built a large studio area.

Soon, I climbed onto the surfboard again, lay on it and swam toward the beach.

“Let’s go down and meet the professionals.” Martin walked around the cliff and along the path beside the coconut forest for a while, then descended from the gentle **** to the beach.

On the edge of the golden beach, Martin stood high on the cliff, holding a viewfinder to observe the beach and bay on the opposite side.

Director of photography Dan Rostersin asked his assistant to set up a tripod and use a camera to shoot a wide-angle picture.

 Blake understood Martin’s style and immediately said no more.

 She did a spin in the air, but she did not fall smoothly and fell into the sea.

In terms of physical fitness and sexiness, Blake is undoubtedly at the top of the entire Hollywood.

 He called an accompanying producer on the spot and asked him to ask the crew if it would be convenient to shoot on the beach.

Martin asked: "Dan, I think this place is very good. Look over there." He put down the viewfinder and pointed to the far left front: "There is a reef area at the end of the beach, which is good for framing."

 After dinner, Blake Lively followed Martin into his room, collapsed directly on the sofa, hugged a pillow, and said, "I'm so tired!"

 Close to the beach, Martin heard someone shouting at him.

 Blake turned back and leaned his face on Martin's arm, rubbing it constantly, deliberately trying to be miserable: "Do you know how I survived these few months?"

Then, Martin called the people from the art team and the scenery team who came over and said: "Deploy the swimming pool according to the beach, sign the contract here, and start immediately."

The two had enough exchanges when they were in Los Angeles. Rosteshin said: "This bay is nice. Let's go down and have a look."

She ran to Martin and threw the surfboard on the beach. She originally wanted to hug Martin and get her clothes wet, but when she saw the viewfinder in Martin's hand and knew that he was working, she just put her arm around him. , asked: "Would you like to go for a swim?"

 Blake stood up from the water and walked toward Martin with his surfboard under his arm.

Director of photography Rostesin followed with people, set up the camera on a tripod, and continued to shoot the scenery here.

 Martin plans to renovate and build a large beach-like swimming pool in the studio for filming.

“Another day.” Martin continued to observe through the viewfinder: “There is still a lot of work to do today.”

The group left the beach and went directly to the Infinity Pool Production Center, which was not far away.

 After this period of swimming, fitness and surfing training, Blake is in better shape than before.

In a wave, Blake Lively, wearing an orange bikini, was riding a surfboard and fighting against the waves.

 These are the lessons learned from the experience and lessons of our predecessors who spent their lives and blood.

 Martin has also been observing the conditions of the waves.

Martin contacted the studio and went directly to one of the studios. He walked around the pool and made sure that the size was OK. He immediately asked someone to talk about it.

 Martin nodded and observed from several different angles and locations. He was quite satisfied with this beach.

There are not many tourists on the beach opposite, but there are seven or eight people surfing and windsurfing in the sea. From time to time, someone falls overboard and falls into the water, but they quickly climb back up.

Martin put down the viewfinder and asked her professional: "How is the surfing environment here?"

"It's very good." Bruna was full of praise: "The sea level here seems calm, but every once in a while, there will be waves. The waves are not very big, which is especially suitable for water sports that have just left the novice stage. By."

 This is the surfing coach hired by the crew for Blake, who will also serve as her stunt double during filming.

 After a busy day, when I returned to the hotel where I checked in, it was already dark.

Because Hollywood crews have been filming here for a long time and have established a huge filming base. The security of Rosarito Island is relatively good in Mexico. Of course there is no shortage of gang members in the local area, but no matter how stupid the gangster is, they will know about these crews from Hollywood in the United States. Best not to mess with.

 Surfing instructor Bruna also came ashore.

Strictly speaking, all scenes in the film take place on the beach, without any interior scenes.

 But many close-up scenes involving sharks and the heroine are actually not suitable for filming in the complex sea environment.

Beside her, there was a tall woman wearing a red bikini who was always staring closely.

Blake also said seriously: "I can handle waves like today's situation."

 Martin decided that the exterior scenes would be shot here, so the parts that needed to be set up were naturally placed here.

She looked pitiful: "Every morning, I study theory, read interviews and reports from shark attack survivors, and also take time to visit marine biologists to learn about the habits of great white sharks, and go to medical school to communicate with doctors and medical students. , understand basic trauma management.”

 Martin gently rubbed Blake's face with the back of his hand to comfort her.

Blake continued: "The most difficult part is in the afternoon. After fitness, swimming and surfing training are over, I am as tired as a pile of mud and can't stand up."

 Martin was aware of her preparations: "You did a good job."

Blake took Martin's hand hard, made him lower his body, turned back and kissed Martin passionately.

　After a long time, the two separated. ,

After his breathing calmed down a bit, Blake took out his phone again, opened Twitter and INS successively, and showed Martin: "The number of social media fans of the lace leader is definitely among the top five in Hollywood." Martin thought for a while and said: "You Social media will be an important platform for film promotion. Once filming starts, you will have to update some filming-related content every few days, and the crew's publicity department will communicate with you in due course."

Blake responded: "No problem on my end."

 Martin picked her up and said, "Okay, let's not talk about work, there are more important things waiting for us to do."

"Hurry up, time cannot be wasted." Blake hugged Martin and said, "I have consumed too much in the past few months and I urgently need to replenish energy."

 Martin said: "This time Taylor and the others are not here, it's all yours."

Blake got excited and said, "That's great, I can eat alone, and I'll **** those two little **** Taylor and Carly to death!"

 The next morning, Martin signed a lease agreement with the studio on behalf of the crew and returned to Los Angeles that same day.

 The crew of "Shark Beach" is still being formed, and specific personnel matters are temporarily handled by Louise and first assistant director Steve Downton.

This film does not require many actors, no more than ten, and the crew will not conduct large-scale auditions. Except for Blake Lively, the heroine, other actors will be resolved within WMA.

The Oscars are coming soon, and "La La Land" is the top favorite for multiple awards. Martin's energy has also shifted from the preparation of new films to the Oscars.

 If nothing else, almost all the publicity and public relations efforts of Davis Studio and Disney Pictures were focused on the best picture.

 The 86th Academy Awards kicked off at the Dolby Theater on the first weekend of March.

But the most eye-catching thing in front of the Dolby Theater is not the female stars on the red carpet, but the hundreds of black women's attire.

These people are dressed up in colorful clothes, like chimpanzees smeared with makeup and wallowing in a muddy pond full of motor oil. Their colorful appearance cannot hide the black color.

Blacks, gays, and shape-shifters, many media reporters took the initiative to give up their positions, and they stood in the C position near the red carpet.

 Martin left the interview area and came to the entrance of the Dolby Theater, where he met Leonardo and Nicholson who were waiting here.

The latter looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this place, and said to Martin: "Did you see it? How terrifying the beast you unleashed is."

Martin stood in front of the window, looked at the men in black women's clothing, and said: "The happier they dance now, the stronger their counterattack will be in the future."

Leonardo put his hands behind his back: ""12 Years a Slave" did not receive a Best Picture nomination, which caused dissatisfaction among many black people in the industry. I heard that Will Smith and his wife once wanted to launch a protest, but they were appeased by the academy and various unions. Come on, there will definitely be a performance award for a black man tonight.”

Nicholson had a more accurate judgment: "If nothing else, she should be the best supporting actress."

 Martin couldn't help but shake his head: "If whoever makes the most noise wins, the Oscar won't be the Oscar for long."

Leonardo said: "The current social situation, especially in severely left-leaning places like California and Los Angeles, is unstoppable."

"Very good." Martin nodded slightly: "When I compete for best director, I will announce that my gender is a gunship."

Nicholson asked: "What?"

 Leonardo reacted: "Can you still play like this?"

"Haha..." Martin sneered: "What they are playing now are all leftovers from when I played in Atlanta. If you want to compare versions, I will kill them instantly!"

Nicholson saw someone approaching and stopped talking about these bad things: "Let's go into the theater."

 The three of them walked to the hall, and met some people from the "12 Years a Slave" crew on the way, including the black actress who was nominated for Best Supporting Actress.

This black woman's chance of winning tonight is infinitely close to 100%.

The three of them entered the main hall of the Dolby Theater. Before they reached their seats, Tom Hanks suddenly appeared and stopped Martin, wanting to have a few words with him.

 “Tommy, is there something important?” Martin asked.

Tom Hanks asked in confusion: "You have appeared on the list of Best Actor nominees for many consecutive years, why not this time?"

“I also want to continue to get nominated.” Martin expressed helplessness: “The crew also applied for this award for me, but after voting, the judges did not choose me.”

He shook his head: "Maybe the judges thought my performance this time was average. Speaking of which, I'm not particularly good at singing and dancing roles. I can do just fine with dancing, but it's really a bit difficult to sing."

 Tom Hanks smiled and said: "You can continue to work hard next year. I believe you will definitely come back next year and compete for the next Oscar statuette."

These words seemed to have a different flavor to Martin, and he couldn't help but glance at Tom Hanks.

Tom Hanks’s aging face shows his iconic honest smile.

 But no one would think that he was really a honest and good old man.

Martin said seriously: "The Oscar is the top honor in the industry. I have been working hard to win the next Oscar, and I will definitely continue to work hard next year."

 Tom Hanks said: "I wish you good luck next year."

 “Thank you.” Martin said goodbye and left, walking towards where the crew was.

 He figured it out before he even got to the crew.

Tom Hanks said these words not as a Hollywood star, but as the vice chairman of the Academy’s executive committee.

 Martin secretly speculated: “Does this encourage me to increase my competition next year?”

Coming to the seat, the crew of "The Wolf of Wall Street" where Leonardo is located is right next to the crew of "La La Land".

Nicholson, a special person who must attend every Oscar ceremony, has a seat on Martin's side.

 The trio of **** are sitting together tonight.

Martin lowered his voice and roughly described to Leonardo and Nicholson what Tom Hanks had just said.

Nicholson has almost become the Oscar mascot. He knows enough about the inside of the Academy and said: "The situation is obvious. The public relations competition has declined this time, and there is a serious lack of hot news. As a result, the Oscars are not popular enough in the early stage. It is very likely that It will affect tonight’s ratings.”

Leonardo added: "This time, my public relations efforts were not very good. Both the media's public opinion and the judges' response were very lackluster."

Martin told the truth: "You can only use misfortune once. Leo, you idiot, can't you use your brain to think about it? On the premise that you have a Best Actor statuette, and then do misfortune in public relations, will it be useful?" ?”

 Leonardo glared, frowned, and shouted angrily in a low voice: "Why didn't you remind me of this when I brought up the idea of ​​selling out at the party in December?"

"Leo, please understand!" Martin said plausibly: "We are competitors now! You and I are in an Oscar competition. The loser will have to solve the problem of the century for the rest of his life. Why should I remind you?"

 Leonardo covered his chest: "I am your brother and you cheated me like this, won't your conscience hurt?"

 Martin said directly: "No."
