Chapter 150: For the Heat
The main cast and crew of the crew gathered, the champagne tower was piled up more than one person high, and Susan Levine stepped on the elevator to the high place, took the large bottle of champagne from Robert Downey Jr., and poured the wine down.
The audience burst into warm applause.
At this moment, the crew is extremely harmonious, and there is no noise at all, as if there has been no fight from preparation to filming to release.
Because the loser of the battle is not eligible to participate in the celebration.
The waiter delivers the champagne to everyone.
Susan exclaimed, "Cheers to success!" ”
Everyone, including Martin, raised their glasses.
Laughter and elation.
Martin grabs his glass and finds Susan, who introduces him to the president of Silver Films, her immediate boss, Joe Silver.
This is one of Hollywood's most famous producers, and the masterpiece Gentian and The Matrix trilogy.
However, he is already in his eighties, and after the Matrix, he retired from front-line work.
For a young man like Martin, Joe Silver is not cold, and in a career of more than 50 years, he has seen too many people of all kinds.
After answering Martin's greetings, he left the celebration.
Robert Downey Jr. came over at this time and put his arm around Martin's shoulder, quite a bit of the boss's momentum: "Man, your character is good, a little bit of my demeanor back then." ”
Martin clinked glasses with him and told the truth: "You won the Oscar nomination for Best Actor, and I'm far from it." ”
Donnie was short, and it was uncomfortable to hold Martin's shoulder for a long time, so he took the initiative to let go of his hand and politely said: "When you are free, let's have a drink together." ”
"No problem." Martin could tell whether a sincere invitation or a kind word was spoken.
He left here and found Zomi Shilla.
is completely different from the nervousness when the film was first released, Zommi's eyebrows are fluttering at the moment, and he almost writes the successful director on his face.
Martin smiled and said, "How many are you going to find tonight?" ”
The two old perverts have their own tacit understanding: "Don't look for the ordinary, go to Avalon together after the party, let's see who can catch a well-known actress." ”
Martin was full of confidence: "Man, success has made you forget who you are facing, and standing opposite you is a Hollywood lover, the first type of man in Georgia, you are doomed." ”
Zomi laughed: "I now have the director aura bonus!" ”
Martin couldn't help scratching his head: "Talk about civilization and quality, pick up girls by means, not profession." ”
Mene heard it not far away, and came over to join in the fun: "How about counting me in?" ”
Martin sighed: "Zomi, we are doomed, Mene's lethality to middle-aged and elderly women is nuclear bomb level." ”
Zomi was in a good mood and deliberately asked Mene, "Don't go back to Paris's heart?" ”
Mene is like a poet: "The lost love is destined to be impossible to turn back." ”
Several representatives of the investor side came over to have a drink with the three of them.
According to them, the wax museum can recoup its investment at the box office alone, and the videotapes, TV broadcasts and DVDs in the later stage are pure profits.
Horror films are a popular genre in offline markets such as videotapes and DVDs.
Thomas was there tonight, and he felt that he was clearly valued, and anyone on the crew was willing to talk to him more.
Even, Eliza Cuthbert's agent Victor came over and brought up the old story again.
"The movie is a big hit, Martin and Eliza are the male and female leads, and they have a relationship." The little star needs to stay hot the most, and Victor once again suggests: "It's best to come together again." ”
Thomas thinks so, but he still says, "You have to commit to not forcing people to go vegetarian and not talking about vegetarianism before I can talk to Martin." ”
"Eliza is ready to take a vegetarian diet and environmental protection as a social activity. ”
The two sides couldn't talk together, so Thomas quietly found Martin, went to the rest place, and briefly told him what had just happened.
Martin had already made a decision: "Don't bother. ”
Thomas reminded: "As the popularity of the film decreases, so will your attention, you are just a little famous, there is no problem of marketing and overexposure, and it is very necessary to maintain a certain degree of exposure and topicality before it is released." ”
Martin asked, "Romance is the best way to go, right?" ”
Thomas nodded: "It's as strong as Leonardo, and when there are no works, he also uses this way to maintain exposure." ”
Martin suddenly realized: "Frequent girlfriend changes also have this benefit." ”
"You and Eliza's philosophy is too different, Paris is a pit, neither of which are suitable." Thomas suggested very sincerely: "Martin, you are known as the most talented person in Joshua, use all your skills to become a female star." ”
Martin asked, "Is it better to have a bigger name?" ”
Thomas said: "Of course, if you can make an Oscar, you are hotter than Mene." ”
Martin is self-aware: "Except for Kate, no one else will pay attention to me." Kate is married, and she is still a friend of Louise, which is not suitable. ”
Two well-dressed guys discussed how to rub off on the popularity of female stars.
Thomas thought for a while: "I'll inquire within the company and look at the famous actresses under other agents, is there anyone who wants to use your current popularity to create a topic, but there is not much hope." ”
The agent is so concerned, what can Martin say: "I usually pay attention to this aspect, there are so many stars in Los Angeles, maybe one day I will meet the opportunity." ”
"Identify the target, don't be afraid of embarrassment, rush up and stalk ......" Before the words were finished, Thomas consciously shut up and patted his head: "You should teach me, not me to teach you." ”
After the party, Martin, Mene, Zommy and Bruce drove to Sunset Boulevard to the Avalon Bar to start the second half.
As soon as I sat down at the bar, a woman in her 40s suddenly approached me.
She took the initiative to strike up a conversation with Mene: "Would you like to have a drink with me?" ”
Mene glanced at the woman's Hermes bag and Patek Philippe watch, and said, "No problem." ”
The two went to the booth on the second floor.
Martin exclaimed: "It deserves to be a middle-aged and elderly killer." ”
Bruce put down his glass and said, "Mene is famous now, more than you and Zommy combined. ”
Zomi regained her confidence: "I see, she wants to try the ...... Paris used"
Bruce reminded: "Aren't you two going to compete? If you lose, you'll be treated tonight, and I'll be the referee. ”
Nothing else, he looked around, and was stunned that none of his butts were bigger than Kim.
Avalon and the vine estate across the street are both popular nightspots for Hollywood celebrities.
Many female celebrities also like to come here for a drink.
Legend has it that Sandra Bullock caught up with Ryan Gosling, who was 16 years younger than her, and after nearly two years of dating, Commander Gao's career has advanced by leaps and bounds.
Martin thought of Thomas's words, and his eyes swirled, without Nicole Kidman and Charlize Theron, it would be okay to have Halle Berry and let him practice his hands.
Anyway, he is thick-skinned, and there is no shame in failing.
The thighs of the Oscar-winning actresses, which little actor doesn't want to hug them?
Zomi was the first to find his target, having just had a great success, and his confidence skyrocketed, and he winked at Martin and walked towards a booth with his glass in hand.
There were several women seated there, the most conspicuous of which was Penelope Cruz.
Martin didn't gain anything on the first floor, his eyes turned to the second floor, and his gaze quickly stopped at the booth diagonally opposite.
There sat a young actress with bright eyes and a sweet smile.
Martin straightened his clothes a little, got up and went up to the second floor, and looked at it as he walked, and Anne Hathaway was indeed beautiful as long as she didn't laugh at the young age.
How do I pick up a conversation? It's hard to get rid of the old color...... No, it's hard to get the most talented man in Atlanta.
Martin took the car keys, hooked them in his hand and played with them, and as he passed by Anne Hathaway, his fingers loosened slightly, and the key was thrown out, slamming on Anne Hathaway's desk.
The three girls at the same table, including Anne, were startled.
Martin quickly turned around, his face full of embarrassment: "Sorry, I accidentally ......"
When he saw Anne, he was stunned for a moment, and said with obvious surprise: "You are ...... You're Princess Mia! ”
It's as if seeing a fan of an idol, and I'm at a loss: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." ”
Such a good-looking sunny man was full of sincere apologies, and the three girls didn't take what had just happened to heart.
Anne picked up the key and handed it to Martin: "It's okay, be careful next time." ”
Martin took the key and put it away, busily rummaged through his pockets, and muttered, "Why didn't you bring a notebook?" Damn,Why didn't I bring a notebook! ”
He saw the tissue box on the table and pointed, "Your Royal Highness, can you help me keep an autograph?" ”
Anne Hathaway pulled out a tissue, signed her name on it, and handed it to Martin.
"Thank you." Martin carefully folded it and solemnly put it away, the first step had been successful, and immediately started the second step: "I'm sorry to disturb you just now, I invite you to have a drink, as an apology, please give me a chance to apologize." ”
A fan of Princess Mia, a handsome man with a good demeanor, and a man who speaks so politely and cultured, it is difficult to refuse.
Besides, this is his due apology.
The other two girls looked at Anne, who nodded slightly, "You're too polite." ”
Martin called the waiter, asked the three girls what they wanted to drink, and then asked for four glasses of wine.
One of them, of course, was his own.
When the wine came, Martin naturally pulled out his chair and sat down at the table.
He raised his glass: "Thank you three for forgiving me for the stupid mistakes I made." ”
Anne took the lead, and the other two girls also raised their glasses and drank together.
Martin took the initiative to find a topic: "Mia ......"
Anne-Hathaway shook her head slightly: "Call me Anne anyway." ”
"I'm lucky to have met Anne tonight." Martin introduces himself: "My name is Martin Davis and I'm an actor. ”
"Anne Hathaway." Anne smiled and nodded.
Two other girls also introduced themselves, one named Laura and the other Sandy.
Anne wondered: "Are you an actor?" I see you familiar. ”
Martin said in due course: "I acted in the recently released "Wax Museum of Horrors". ”
Sandy is just a little actor: "It turns out that you're a star, just like Annie. ”
