Chapter 70: : Love rival

Los Angeles is more than a thousand kilometers away from New Mexico. Hardy took Henry and Matthew on a plane to Albuquerque, the largest city in New Mexico.

There is still more than a hundred kilometers away from the filming base. Hardy asked Henry to directly buy a car and drive to the film and television base.

After watching Ava, he is going to drive back to Los Angeles. Anyway, he has two drivers, a thousand kilometers away, and can go back in one day.

What they bought was a Stipunk car, which was the one that Yu Zecheng had agreed to give to the station master in the TV series "Latent".

When the car drove out of the city, the highway was full of wilderness on both sides and rolling mountains in the distance. The climate in New Mexico was dry and hot, so there was very little vegetation here. Both the mountains and the ground were bare and there was no aesthetic feeling.

Occasionally passing through a village, they are all that kind of square mud houses with long wooden shafts exposed on the roofs. There are few cars on the road. Only two donkey carts are seen along the way, revealing a strong rural Mexican style.

Finally arrived at the shooting base.

As soon as the car came in, Hardy discovered that this place is very similar to the Mexican town in the movie, or it may be that the town here looks similar.

The car stopped,

Many staff members looked over.

Hardy got out of the car and someone recognized him.

"It's Mr. Hardy here. Hurry up and notify Director Nolan." someone shouted.

Director Nolan hasn't come yet, and a beautiful figure appears at the door of a house. The woman is wearing a Mexican woman's long dress, her hair is rolled up, and her dress is simple, but even so, it is still difficult to conceal the beauty of a woman.

"Hadi~!"

Ava trot over, and there was no brake at all before the man, and she gave him a hug.

The staff members seen nearby all smiled.

Many of them here know that Ava is the woman of Hardy's assistant, and there are even rumors that Assistant Hardy's investment in this movie is for her.

Soon director Nolan and starring Eastwood and others came out one after another. Both parties exchanged greetings. Hardy said to Henry: "Take down the red wine from the car and give it to the crew to drink."

Everyone on the crew was happy when they heard it, "Thank you Assistant Hardy for your concern."

Walked into the house,

Several people chatted about the movie.

The filming went smoothly, although there were some minor situations in the middle of the scene, such as excessive use of explosives in the explosion scene, someone fell off his horse and broke his leg during a horse-riding battle, and Eastwood was scratched on the face by an explosion stone.

But it was all resolved. The movie was originally like this. No one would be hospitalized just because of scratching a finger.

"How is Ava's performance?" Hardy asked Nolan.

Nolan looked at Ava and said with a smile: "To be honest, Miss Ava's acting skills were really jerky at first, but under my guidance, she gradually entered the role. The most important thing is that she herself is too beautiful. There is a beautiful view."

"Now that the filming is halfway through, I am more and more confident in this film, but Assistant Hardy, there are some things I want to report to you. The money is almost spent, and our previous budget may not be enough."

After Nolan finished speaking, he looked at Hardy calmly.

Hardy could tell that Nolan seemed to have no guilt about spending all his money in advance.

Is over-budget a necessary skill for every director?

And look at him like this, anyway, I have finished spending, you like it, I can't work without adding it.

This reminded him of Siegel.

He played in Las Vegas casinos, and it seemed to play in the same way. Anyway, I spent whatever I wanted, and I asked investors for money after spending.

"How many more shots need to be completed, and how many are expected to be needed?" Hardy asked.

"Two-thirds have been completed, and probably still need 100,000." Nolan said that he was a little embarrassed.

"It's not enough, 80,000 will do."

Hardy said to his heart, fortunately, I have some spare money in my hands recently, otherwise you really sucked it to death.

"I'll take another 50,000. If it doesn't work, I will consider whether I need to change the director." Hardy said.

"Row."

Nolan agreed in one fell swoop.

After talking about the money, Nolan took Eastwood to leave. They still had a scene to film, and only Hardy and Ava were left in the room.

Ava looked at Hardy, hugged him and kissed him.

......

It took a long time to separate.

"How does it feel to be filming, is it very different from your previous fantasy?" Hardy asked, pinching the woman's chin.

"Filming is very tiring, but also very interesting. I like this feeling. Actually I don’t have many scenes, but I follow the crew every day. I just want to see and learn more. The difference between on-site learning and the teacher’s teaching is still It's quite big." Ava said.

"By the way, your song is very popular now, do you know if you are famous?" Hardy smiled.

Ava smiled.

"The shopping goes back to the city every other week. In addition to buying food, I will also bring newspapers. I have seen newspaper reports. They say this song is very popular now, and it has even spread to European and American countries."

When Ava spoke, her lips moved closer,

The lips of the two will collide as soon as they speak.

"In fact, the biggest credit for this song is you. Anyone can catch such a good song. I just met you because of luck."

Just when the two were about to approach again, a man's voice suddenly came from outside, "Miss Gardner, are you there? I'll visit you."

Hardy looked at Ava.

Use your eyes to ask who is outside?

Anger flashed across Ava Gardner's face.

"He claims to be David Walsh, the owner of a listed mining company. A month ago, he brought people to the nearby mountainous area to investigate copper mines. He accidentally came to the crew. When he saw me, he entangled me. I don't want to talk to that person."

"Director Nolan also warned that person, but he didn't care at all, he was still stalking, and he would come every few days."

Hardy smiled and took Ava's hand out of the room.

He found that many people from the crew came out to watch, looking at the excitement.

On the street of the small town, a man in a white suit stood there, in his thirties, holding a bunch of flowers in his hand, and still had a mustache, and he considered himself very handsome.

David originally had a bright smile on his face, but when he saw a man holding Ava's hand out, his smile disappeared, and his eyes turned hostile to Hardy.

"who are you?"

David looked at Hardy and asked.

Hardy smiled.

"I am the producer of the crew and Ava's boyfriend. Who are you and who let you join our crew at will." Hardy asked.

David was stunned.

When he drove over, he saw a new car parked at the entrance of the town. He thought it was the man who drove it, but Stipunk was not a good car for him, and the opponent's strength might not be good.

"I am the owner of Walsh Mining. I admire Miss Gardner very much and come to visit her specially. Even if she has a boyfriend, can't she know other friends?"

David said proudly.

David Wash is a typical playboy. He took over a listed mining company from his father's generation, with assets exceeding one million U.S. dollars. He is definitely a rich man in the United States.

In recent years, the mining company has been operating poorly, and the company’s stock price has continued to be sluggish. Later, the company bought a piece of land in New Mexico and prepared to dig it. David came over and stayed for a few days and felt extremely boring. He didn’t expect to see Ava in the studio. Immediately surprised as a heavenly man.

Later, I asked Ava's name, and thought of Ava Gardner, the singer of the recent fire song, and I was even more surprised.

Proactively approach Ava and use his **** skills to get Ava into his hands, but he doesn't know that Ava has been in a nightclub, what kind of man he has not seen, how could he be bewildered by David's words.

Reject the other person politely.

But David was stalking, and he would come over every three to five, taking the pursuit of Ava as the greatest pleasure in New Mexico.

Hardy is most disgusted with this kind of self-righteous playboy, and has no interest in quarreling at all. Henry and Matthew are nearby. Hardy said to the two: "Send this guy to **** off."

Henry and Matthew stepped forward David Walsh looked at the two with ill-faced faces, "I warn you, I am the chairman of a listed company, and you can't afford to offend it."

Matthew smiled.

Take out the revolver from the body.

David Wash thought that Matthew was an actor, and when shooting westerns here, the guns the actors brought should be props. How could he be frightened by a prop gun?

"Bang~!"

Matthew fired a shot at David, and the rose in David's hand exploded and the petals fell.

Ah~!

David jumped up in surprise.

He didn't expect the opponent's gun to be real.

"Wow~~!"

The crew members who watched the lively scene were also taken aback and murmured.

"Boom, boom, boom~!"

This is not over yet,

After Matthew exploded the flower in David's hand, he continued to shoot him again and again, and David froze in fright.

Wait for the gunfire to stop.

People saw that David Walsh had a few more bullet holes on the corners, toes, and brim of the hat. Matthew blew the muzzle and inserted the gun into the holster smartly. This action is very western, which fits this very well. The temperament of the set.

Happiness~!

The staff who watched the excitement nearby applauded. They have seen shots of sharpshooters in the movie, but this is the first time I have seen this kind of marksmanship in reality, and it feels more exciting than in the movie.

David Wash was terrified.

Body stiffness,

There is still a damp feeling in the lower body.

He looked down.

The pants are wet.

The traces of dampness are very conspicuous on the white suit.

"Ah~!"

David Wash screamed, dropped the pedicel in his hand, staggered towards the car, stumbling into the car a few moments, hitting the car and slamming the gas, the car swayed and rushed out. Fortunately, the surrounding area was empty. Hit something.
