The Greatest Showman

Ren Li frowned slightly, looking at the empty parking lot in front of him, showing a puzzled expression.

It's already 8:20 at this time, and there are still ten minutes before today's start time. Logically, the entire parking lot should be full, and there may even be no parking spaces. The car must be parked in the public parking lot behind. But not only is it not full, there is not even a single car, which is really abnormal, it can be said to be unbelievable.

Nathan suddenly panicked. Such an unexpected situation really caught him off guard. He forced himself to calm down, but it was too difficult. He turned his head to look at Renly subconsciously, noticing the confusion between Renly's brows, but luckily, there was no anger.

"Please confirm today's shooting information." Renly has experienced such a huge production crew as "Pacific War" and is relatively experienced. After a brief confusion, he calmed down, opened the car door, and walked towards the studio. .

After being reminded, Nathan also reacted, and quickly found the text message and confirmed it.

Standing at the gate of the studio, the huge iron gate always makes people feel small. In order to allow the tool cart to enter and exit smoothly, the gate of the studio is always high and wide. There is only one in the lower right corner. A small iron gate that allows two people to pass side by side. In comparison, it is like a passage to the kingdom of adults.

Usually, this small door is opened to facilitate the staff to enter and exit; when the filming officially starts, it will be closed. Anyone who wants to enter must knock on the door, and the guard behind the door will open a mail and throw it. Mouth-sized space, review the identity of the person coming in, and only let people in after confirmation.

Now, the small door was tightly closed, and Renly knocked on the door hard, but heard no response, not even a single movement, and there was a strangeness everywhere. Are they looking in the wrong place?

"Renly, I just checked the text message. It's indeed 8:30, Studio 23." Nathan temporarily parked the car on the side of the road to avoid blocking the road, and then walked over quickly and said loudly. , "Then I called james-currier and julie-irie respectively, but neither of them answered. I left a message explaining the situation, but..."

Renly's composure succeeded in calming Nathan as well, and as he cleared his mind, things became more organized. James and Julie are the two production managers of the crew, who are responsible for different work contents. Nathan, as Renly's assistant, mainly deals with two people, and it is the most direct and effective to ask them for verification.

However, neither of them answered the phone.

In general, this is not unusual, because both of them are very busy with their work, and it is common to miss calls. But today's situation is special, which makes people have to think more.

Renly didn't jump to conclusions in a hurry, "Did James tell you the time himself before leaving yesterday?"

"Yes." Nathan nodded again and again, because he was worried about making a mistake, he also specifically asked James to send a text message, and the language and text were confirmed. He didn't want to be fired again.

Renly fumbled in his pocket, took out his phone, rummaged through Paul Walker's phone number, and dialed it. It's not even half past eight. If there is no shooting assignment, Paul may be exercising, but...

"Good morning, Renly." Paul answered the phone refreshed, and his sunny voice greeted warmly, "Call me at this time, I'm about to have breakfast, do you want to join us? join in?"

Renly could hear the lightheartedness in Paul's words. It was less than ten minutes before the start of work, and Paul was still eating breakfast slowly? This makes no sense. However, Renly was not in a hurry, but responded with a smile, "Are you sure it's Los Angeles time? Not New York time?"

The pace of life in Los Angeles is always slower, and it seems that meal times are a little later than New York. However, Renly's time here was too short, perhaps just his own delusion.

However, Renly's ridicule still made Paul laugh, "I didn't go surfing today, otherwise I would have breakfast at 9:30."

"As soon as I heard it, I knew that this is not the life of the elite." Renly replied with a faint smile, which successfully caused Paul to burst into laughter, repeatedly saying yes.

Los Angeles and New York have one thing in common. It is generally believed that the elite or the rich can enjoy brunch, because they can sleep in at a leisurely pace, come out at about ten or ten thirty, and Friends enjoying a leisurely brunch.

So brunch restaurants and cafés in Los Angeles are always crowded, and young actors who aspire to be actors will pretend to have brunch in order to meet a great director or producer.

After Paul's laughter subsided a little, Renly cut into the theme naturally, "What time does today's filming start?"

"Twelve o'clock." Paul replied without any hesitation or doubt, "Today's main scenes will continue into the evening, and it may be necessary to go out to shoot night scenes, so I entered the crew at twelve o'clock and used the lunch We will have a meeting to discuss the time, and we will officially start filming around 2:00 in the afternoon, and it is estimated that we will be busy until the evening.”

twelve o'clock. This is the answer.

No wonder the parking lot is empty! No wonder the studio is empty! Obviously, someone wanted to teach Renly a lesson, and deliberately gave the wrong start time, and asked him to come to the studio three and a half hours earlier to wait.

These three and a half hours are really embarrassing. If he goes back now, it will take 40 minutes to an hour to go back and forth, and now is the rush hour for work. If you are unlucky and get stuck in the car array, it is not unreasonable to spend two hours. Possibly; but if he chooses to stay, three and a half hours will be spent staring here, so boring as to be moldy.

This move is really clever and harmless. Even if Renly protested through his agent, the three-and-a-half-hour waiting time was painless, and Andy had no way to put pressure on the crew; He was so angry that he was pranked for no reason, and more importantly, his self-esteem was severely ridiculed.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Paul asked casually, "Didn't your assistant get the notification yesterday?"

Every day of the crew will be different. After the filming schedule is released, the assistant will go to the crew to understand the situation and ensure that his actors are ready for the next day's work.

"It's alright, just re-checking with you." Renly shook his head with a smile, chatted with Paul for a while, and then hung up.

Nathan, who was standing next to him, also reacted at this time. Yesterday, it wasn't that he went to the production team to get the itinerary, but James, one of the directors of the production team, came to him personally to explain the itinerary. Nathan also thought that it was because the crew attached great importance to Renly and gave the treatment of the third protagonist, and today was the first time for Renly to appear, so naturally he needed to be more cautious, so James came over to explain in detail, and he was sure that he would not go wrong.

But now it seems that this is a trap, and someone deliberately wants to give Renly a slap in the face.

"Renly, I'm sorry..." Nathan panicked again, feeling extremely guilty, it was all his fault, if he was careful, don't take it for granted, and repeat it a few times, then today's accident can be alright avoided. As an assistant, this is his responsibility, and he has no room for excuses.

Renly smiled instead, the corners of his mouth raised, and he patted Nathan's arm, "You have to know that if they're trying to fool you, you can't see through."

Renly already knew the truth about how difficult it is for kiddos to be on the set of "War in the Pacific." If the staff is determined to make things difficult for an actor, they don't need much power. They only need to do some small details to make the actor miserable.

As an extreme example, if a staff member deliberately blocked the toilet of Brad Pitt's van, and then released a rumor that Brad was constipated. Then Brad is really at a loss. This kind of rumor can't cause substantial harm. At most, it's just people talking after dinner, but it has absolutely no positive impact on Brad's image.

The same is true today.

Nathan was just a little assistant. He confirmed the time verbally and via text message, and double-confirmed via James and Julie, respectively. He had no reason to be suspicious. James and Julie didn't answer the phone just now. Judging from this move, it can be seen that they are deliberately trying to teach Renly a lesson, so Renly really has nowhere to escape.

Renly's comfort, not only did not make Nathan breathe a sigh of relief, but made him feel more and more guilty. He understands the truth, but he still can't swallow it. Why would anyone want to target Renly? Renly has never offended anyone!

"Who is it! Is it James?" Nathan only felt that his head was full of question marks, and he couldn't understand who was fighting against Renly. Is today's accident just a little prank, or is it the beginning of a bad life in the future?

A figure flashed in Ren Li's mind, nodded thoughtfully, and said with a half-smile, "Yeah, who is it?" This is also the thing he is most curious about right now.

He is not a soft persimmon. He ate this Huanglian today, and he can't tell if there is any bitterness. He will firmly close his mouth, but it does not mean that he will not fight back.

"Then what do we do now?" Nathan scratched his head irritably, walked back and forth, looking at Renly eagerly, as if he was ready to fight back.

But Renly gave a different understanding, "Wait, let's just wait here." How to investigate, how to deal with it, and how to punish the culprits behind the scenes is not what Renly needs to worry about for the time being. Today's filming task is what more important. "Bring me the script and I'll read it."

"Renly!" Nathan shouted gloomily, not expecting such a response from Renly.

Renly laughed dumbly, shook his head gently, and repeated, "Script!"
