Chapter 226: The First Property in My Life

In Los Angeles in June, the hot season of the year also ushered in the peak sales season for beverages led by two types of cola.

Coca-Cola was bottled in new bottles of old liquor, and Coke with the image of Martin, the leader of the Cult of Coke, was put on the market in large quantities.

The concept of the Coke Cult has attracted the attention of a large number of young people.

In half a month, the news that the head of the sect Martin will go to Washington to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom is also widely known under the promotion of Coca-Cola.

The hot momentum continued to Coca-Cola's sales.

From supermarkets to convenience stores to street advertisements, posters and advertisements dressed up by Master Martin can be found everywhere.

Red is hot, blue is not willing to be lonely.

PepsiCo launched two versions of the campaign, Sports and Entertainment, and all the stars of the ads had their hair dyed their signature blue.

Then, it was sprayed in newspapers and on the Internet.

"Look at Martin's high style, and then look at Pepsi's wonderful photos, and make a judgment!"

"I don't want Pepsi to come up with such a high-end concept as the Coke God Cult, but is this sand sculpture too weak?"

"Coca-Cola has beaten a bunch of entertainment and sports stars, including Britney Spears and David Beckham, with Martin Davis alone."

A lot of die-hard Pepsi supporters jumped out to fight back.

"Red and blue are incompatible!"

"Drag the red one out and shoot the target for ten minutes!"

Red and blue are noisy on the Internet, but Martin has always maintained enough topicality.

As with the market share of the two Cokes, the red supporters have an overwhelming advantage enough to guarantee Martin's positive influence.

In Pacific Pictures' office, Thomas rubbed his face vigorously and looked up from the front of his computer.

Jessica had dark circles under her eyes and said, "The two sides of our hook are arguing on the Internet, and Coca-Cola is also pushing it, and it won't stop in a short time." ”

Emily stretched: "I've been working for more than ten hours these days, no, no, no, I'm going back to make up for my beauty sleep." ”

Thomas has not been idle since returning from Atlanta, looking for a new job opportunity for Martin, and at the same time, he has been working hard for many days to cooperate with Coca-Cola's promotion.

While the three of them were working overtime one after another, carrying the weight, Bruce's car left North Hollywood and entered Sherman Oakes.

"Actually, the house in Malibu is good, the location is on the mountain, the view is good, and the price is not expensive." Antonio, who was sitting in the back seat with his stomach up, said: "$2.6 million can definitely be taken." ”

Martin shook his head: "That place, there is only one road, once there is a fire on the mountain, there is nowhere to run if you want to." ”

Antonio was amazed by Martin's brain circuitry: "Malibu hasn't had a wildfire in years. ”

Martin still has the vague impression that in the gossip he once watched, Malibu was always associated with celebrities and wildfires.

If you just bought a house and you set it on fire, it would be a lot of fun.

Charcoal-grilled Martin and Bruce?

It's exciting to think about.

Bruce drove to Coty Road, a new community in Sherman Oaks, where the houses in the community are located at the foot of the hill, all of which are detached villas with courtyards covering an area of about 500 to 800 square meters, all built within three years.

According to Antonio's instructions, the car stopped at the entrance of a courtyard.

The closed iron gate was open, and tall palm trees were planted on both sides of the door, and Martin visually measured the area surrounded by the wall, which was about 25 x 30.

Antonio made a call and pointed inside the door.

Bruce drove the car straight in.

The vestibule is a turquoise lawn and a long pool, and the villa has an inverted L-shape with white walls and red tiles common in Los Angeles.

Garrison, the real estate agent he had made an appointment, is standing on the steps in front of the house.

The car stopped, Martin got out of the car, looked at Antonio, who was struggling to move his body, and helped him down.

Antonio sighed: "I'm old, my legs and feet are not good." ”

"You're not old, you're fat." Martin nodded his belly, which was bigger than ten months pregnant: "Lose weight." ”

Antonio shook his head: "It's too painful, I'd rather lie in bed later." ”

Garrison hurriedly greeted him and shook Martin's hand, "Mr. Davis, it's my honor to serve you. ”

"You're welcome." Martin looked around, the fence was enough to block the view from the outside, and there was a garage on the side of the upside-down L-shaped annex building, which could meet the outdoor self-service barbecue, which was very convenient for parties.

Garrison was very discerning, and immediately took the lead and walked over there, "Shall we look from this side?" ”

Martin followed.

Bruce looked at Antonio's trembling belly, worried that his center of gravity would fall headlong, and walked side by side with him.

Antonio had told Martin before he came that it was a brand new house with a renovated finish.

At this point, he won't talk any more, so as not to affect Martin's judgment.

The garage in the annex building is easy to put three cars, and the entrance through the inside door is a small living room, and the second floor is a few bedrooms with direct access to the master bedroom and the main building.

Brewster walked back and forth and was satisfied.

In any case, the Russians are a potential danger, and he has to live in Martin's house for a long time, and he can live in the auxiliary building, and he can rush over as soon as possible.

Bruce thought with his toes and knew that Martin would definitely mess around when he was a rotten man, and he wouldn't affect Martin here.

The group moved from the second floor to the main building, where there are two bedrooms, the master bedroom is large enough and has a king-size balcony, so it is not a problem for more than ten people to work together in the master bedroom.

As for the first floor, there is the regular living room, study, dining room, and entertainment room and so on.

Martin was most pleased with the entertainment room, which had a small four-seat screening room.

The main building also has a basement, which is divided into three parts: a small wine cellar, a storage room and a fitness room.

Like most luxury homes for sale, it comes with finishes and furnishings.

Martin looked at the house on the spot, returned to the living room, and asked directly, "How much does it cost?" ”

Garrison offers directly: "With a full set of furnished appliances, $2.45 million." ”

Martin has specialized in housing prices, which are okay, Sherman Oaks is a wealthy area on par with Beverly and Brentwood, and the Coty neighborhood is located in the middle of Sherman Oaks, but not on the most expensive mountainside or hillside.

Of course, he's targeting Louise's property, not MJ's Neverland or Pitt and Aniston's $40 million mansion.

Martin still has a few things to see and is not in a hurry to make a decision: "I'll think about it." ”

The three got into the car, left the Coty neighborhood, and headed up the mountainside.

Martin asked, "Lao Bu, what do you think?" ”

"Not bad, the fence is high enough to keep out prying eyes from outside." Bruce started with a safety aspect: "It's also good for me to install some early warning facilities. ”

He thought for a while, and then said: "I live in the annex building, you can have an independent space, in case of trouble, I can also support you as soon as possible." ”

Antonio heard it and asked curiously, "Burbank Middle School still has sequelae?" ”

Martin tilted his head.

Antonio said, "You hire me as a security guard, I and the Friendship Gun will show you the door, and those bastards will take down one of them without doubting my marksmanship." ”

Martin saw Antonio's marksmanship and said: "I don't doubt your marksmanship, I'm afraid that you will die with others after shooting, and I can't afford to pay for the life of the old millionaire." ”

Bruce wondered and asked Antonio, "Don't you like to enjoy?" It's hard to be a gatekeeper. ”

"Everyone has a dream of being a hero, and I want to be a hero too." Antonio patted his big round belly, as if a basketball was rolling: "Do you know why my marksmanship is so good?" Because I want to be a hero, I specialize in training! ”

"The Russians are very ferocious," Bruce said. ”

Antonio was interested in this topic: "You may not know how much my generation is afraid of Russians, there is a psychological curse, I want to break this curse. ”

Martin glanced at Antonio's stomach: "You should be a landlord with a promising career." ”

The car soon came to the second house, and the three of them looked around and came out quickly.

The house is beautiful, more equipped and advanced, the problem is that it covers an area of almost 1200 square meters, and the price is as high as 4 million dollars, which is too expensive.

Martin then looked at the third and fourth, two seaside villas.

The sea view room is OK for a short vacation, it is troublesome to stay for a long time, and the main thing is that the price is not cheap.

The three of them came to the Corniche, found an open-air cold drink shop, and sat in the sun to drink cold drinks.

Antonio kept wiping his sweat: "There are two more in Brentwood, but they are more expensive, at more than $4.5 million. ”

Martin waved his hand: "There's no need to look at it. ”

Antonio said: "I have seen these places, the owner of the real estate company has a little friendship with me, and I can help you negotiate a lower price." ”

Bruce put down the ice cola and looked at Martin: "Look again?" Or choose? ”

Martin was crisp: "It's the one in the Coty neighborhood." ”

Antonio remembered one thing: "I know the president of the Coty Community Council, and I'll introduce it to you." ”

Martin was curious: "I didn't expect you to be very well-connected. ”

Antonio drank all the cold drinks in one gulp: "I'm an old millionaire. ”

Bruce was envious: "When I get old one day, I will also buy an apartment building to rent out." ”

It seems that the landlord has a good profession, Martin can't help but think of the landlords in his previous life, the typical of both wealth and wealth, I don't know how many beautiful young ladies with star dreams are thousands of miles away from Jiangling or thousands of miles of Jiangling because of rent arrears.

On the way back to North Hollywood, Antonio called and chatted for at most half a minute, and the house in the Coty neighborhood went from $2.45 million to $2.35 million.

Martin said to the fat landlord, "I'm going to give you a big gift when I get back." ”

Antonio seemed to be reminding: "I have the crocodile tooth pendant and the horn carving." ”

"Really?" There were too many sent, Martin couldn't remember clearly, he knew that he should make a detailed list, and how embarrassing it was to send it.

Bruce couldn't help but laugh.

Antonio said, "Don't give me a gift, who doesn't know that you live in my North Hollywood apartment?" Now that an apartment is hard to find, the rent has nearly doubled compared to last year, and many young actors want to repeat your path to success. ”

His voice changed sharply: "Don't say anything else, in the past six months, I have introduced customers to the hyena doctor, and I have taken a large amount of referral fees!" ”

Martin couldn't help but shake his head: "The-stirring stick is really special." ”

The house price is based on the Los Angeles real estate purchased by many celebrities from 2002 to 2006, which should not be outrageous.
