With Fu Lanlan's strong persistence and after five days of negotiations, the crew of "Hard Fruit Candy" finally had a male lead, and Murphy paid 40,000 US dollars in one lump sum for this. Although James Franco is not comparable to the future, he has also played the main role in two film and television dramas, which is not his real value.

Murphy knew very well that James Franco's purpose in joining the crew was impure, but he didn't care. Everyone just got what they wanted.

At this point, the filming crew of "Hard Fruit Candy" has been officially formed. There are only fourteen people, including Murphy, and three of them are interns who are not paid, which can be said to be extremely saving.

In fact, Murphy also wanted to do all the jobs by himself and save all the salary he offered, but this was obviously impossible. He was just alone. Although he had systematically studied in the film school, he could not be proficient in all behind-the-scenes work.

There are two main actors in the film, namely the little girl Haley and the photographer Jeff. In addition, the most scenes are a female neighbor of Jeff, who has been forced to play a cameo by Murphy to Jessica Chastan.

There is also a girl who died tragically in the opening scene. Murphy also finalized the candidate, but the other party has very few scenes and will not join the crew after filming begins.

The other passerby characters are basically guest stars by Murphy and the crew. The waiter who will inevitably appear during filming at the Midton Cafe is the one from the Midton Cafe. Lynch also specially prepared for this for a while.

Even if this is in Los Angeles, it is still rare for ordinary people to appear in a film.

"Let me introduce it."

In the warehouse that acts as a temporary studio, Murphy, Carrey Mulligan and James Franco gathered together for the first time. The director took the initiative to introduce, "Carrey, this is James Franco, an actor with great acting skills."

Then he turned to introduce, "Jim, this is Carrey Mulligan, the future British Rose."

After Murphy finished speaking, he took the initiative to take a step back.

"Hello, can I call you Carrey?" James Franco put on a charming smile, took the initiative to step forward, and stretched out a hand, "I am James Franco, you can call me Jim."

As if he had just seen his face clearly, Carey Mulligan said in a little surprised, "Why are you?"

"We're meeting again." James Franco's hand was still stretching out.

Carey Mulligan didn't mean to hold his hand, and turned his head and said to Murphy, "Murphy, he's not a good person."

James Franco's smile was stiff, and he withdrew his hand in disappointment, and his face was a little embarrassed.

Murphy was completely unsure of what had happened between the two people, so he quickly smoothed out, "Carry, what happened? Jim is a very outstanding actor."

"Hmph..." Carrey Mulligan just whispered twice with his nose.

Few girls of this age would like the kind of people who have exposed themselves.

After looking at James Franko, Murphy didn't want to care about what happened to these two people, and Carey Mulligan's agent came over for a while, and he didn't have time to waste with these two people.

Murphy walked to the simple desk, took out two schedules and handed them to James Franco and Carrey Mulligan, and reminded, "I ask you to pass all the scenes in the schedule before shooting."

Before shooting every movie, the actors have to undergo a lot of rehearsals, and "Hard Fruit Candy" is no exception.

The knock sounded at this time. After Murphy shouted in, the agent named Bill Roses pushed open the door, carrying the packaged juice and coffee in his hand. He came over and said hello to Murphy and gave him coffee. Then he exchanged a few greetings with James Franco in equal politeness and also gave him a cup of coffee.

I have to say that if you want to become a qualified entertainment agent, you are a must-have skill in being able to handle interpersonal relationships and being versatile.

Murphy was the first time to be a director. James Franko is not so ruthless now, and even the rehearsal is just a warehouse. Bill Roses did not show any contempt, at least on the surface.

In Hollywood, celebrities can be arrogant and arrogant, but their agents are not suitable.

Since Carey Mulligan was underage, his agent or agent guardian was usually at work, Murphy had no objection to this, and James Franko was not stupid either. Although Murphy seriously suspected that he had a ulterior motive, he was polite since he saw Carey Mulligan. Even if he occasionally got close, he would be a normal way of chatting.

"Director Stanton..."

After several people finished their drinks, Bill Roses spoke in time to remind Murphy, "Carry still has class in the afternoon, and work must be finished at twelve o'clock."

Murphy nodded and signaled to James Franko, "Let's go."

At the beginning of the rehearsal, James Franco first read a monologue, which seemed to be warming up and finding his state in this way. He has rich experience and is not the kind of actor who is part-time waiter. Murphy was not too worried. After a brief look, his eyes fell on Carrey Mulligan.

During the first audition and the subsequent communications, the girl showed a certain acting skills. She started performing in the theater troupe since she was in elementary school in the UK, and what she lacked was real performance opportunities.

In Murphy's eyes, this girl's acting talent is not top-notch, but it is also good.

Of course, he is just a novice and may not be accurate in his view.

A few minutes later, Carey Mulligan and James Franco began rehearsal of the first scene, which was the scene where the two had just met.

James Franco walked from behind to Carey Mulligan, "Hailey..."

Carey Mulligan turned around and gently wiped his lips as written in the script, "Jeff?"

Her voice was a little surprise, but it was not the case on her face. Carey Mulligan just showed that she didn't like James Franko very much. Her personality and emotions were almost written on her face. Even if she didn't use the camera to shoot, Murphy could see the annoyingness in her bright eyes, and she was even almost writing the words "I want to kill you, the bad guy" on her face.

"Carry..." Murphy interrupted the two of them and waved, "Come here."

Tickling his short, golden hair, Carey Mulligan walked across from the desk where Murphy was sitting and asked, "Did I do something wrong?"

She could understand a lot through Murphy's expression.

Murphy immediately remembered that she was not an ordinary girl, and she was particularly rebellious. She pondered for a moment and changed her words, "Carry, do I remember the time we talked in the cafe?"

"Well." She nodded gently, "I will never forget. What can determine our future is never what we think, but what we do."

Murphy laughed, looked at her, and then looked at the inexplicable James Franko.

Carey Mulligan was naive and rebellious, but not a fool. He immediately understood, and leaned closer to some and lowered his voice, "I know that actors must have the professional qualities of actors. Don't worry, Murphy, I won't let you down."

This was not loud, but the warehouse was not big. James Franco and Bill Rossis both heard it and looked at Murphy at the same time.

James Franco tilted his head and found that his handsome face and charming smile that he used to be very useful were not as effective as the few words of the guy opposite.

The other party seems to be very good at dealing with girls of this age, and is simply his best learning object.

Bill Rossis, a professional entertainment agent, is different from the quirky James Franco. He has learned how rebellious Carrey Mulligan is, and he also knows that this is a very difficult girl. If it weren't for the introduction of Julian Ferros, he wouldn't have been her agent.

He could even imagine that this rebellious girl who forced her parents to have no way out and had to let her enter the entertainment industry would make this small crew fuck.

But all this in front of him completely overturned the previous point of view. This new director named Murphy Stanton could actually suppress Carrey Mulligan... No, to be more precise, he was manipulating Carrey Mulligan in an extremely clever way.

It's interesting... Bill Roses put his hands on his chest and looked over there, but he didn't say a word.

He was a little suspicious that Carey Mulligan was going to play this role in a life-and-death manner. Is it also related to this young director named Murphy Stanton?

If that's the case, it might be a talent.

Seeing Carey Mulligan realize the problem, Murphy stood up and nodded to her in approval. When the girl showed a happy smile, she spoke again.

"Carry, look at the scene I was rehearsing just now. Hayley doesn't like Jeff and is very disgusted, right?"

"Yes." Carrey Mulligan nodded hurriedly.

"Jeff said that Hayley is very mature," Murphy analyzed her briefly, "but she wanted her to be a fool, and Hayley wanted Jeff to think she was a fool, so..."

Murphy looked at Carey Mulligan, and Carey Mulligan had no bad understanding, and said, "So Hailey was naive to eat chocolate cakes, liked those bands, liked cool T-shirts, which was a completely innocent girl's performance, so that Jeff could relax his guard and mislead him in the wrong direction."

"Bingo." Murphy snapped his fingers, "I have to say you're really smart."

Carrey Mulligan is just a bait to attract James Franco. Even if he is not there, the independent rehearsal of the male and female protagonists mentioned before will not be truly realized. Bill Roses, the agent, will basically be with Carrey Mulligan.

Murphy had long considered these.

On the other side, Carey Mulligan unconsciously raised his chin and smiled extremely cutely, but this smile was only given to Murphy.

Looking over there, James Franco's heart was pounding, as if he was about to break out of his chest. He took a deep breath and pressed down the heating and boiling blood.
