The first screening of "The Reader" was naturally full, and the second screening was almost full, and the supporters of Martin and Kate could easily fill the theater seats.

In order to control word-of-mouth and do a good job in word-of-mouth marketing, the crew's single screening will even last for two weekends.

Kate Winslet, who is aiming for the Olympics, spends a lot of money and bombards the media everywhere.

"Kate Winslet delivered one of the best performances of her career."

"Kate's acting skills are amazing, and Martin's role is not too much."

Compared with Kate, Martin is much more low-key and pragmatic, and Coca-Cola once again sponsored the Oscar impact fund, and even Brioni and Cadillac each provided a fee.

They also wanted Martin to wear his own brand and appear on the Oscar red carpet.

"This time, we're aiming for a Best Actor nomination." Thomas was very realistic and said directly: "If you want to win the award, it is too difficult.

Leonardo, who did not rush to the Olympics this year and did not accompany him, came to Martin's side to join in the fun, and deliberately said: "The favorite person of the old men of the academy has moved to Los Angeles since the first half of the year to prepare for the Oscar.

Martin uttered the name: "Daniel Day-Lewis." ”

Jessica flipped through the computer data and said: "His starring role in "Blood is Coming" will soon be screened in Los Angeles, and the word-of-mouth of the film and Daniel Day-Lewis's performance are all explosive at the current pull-up meetings. ”

Martin looked at Leonardo: "No wonder you didn't rush for the film this year." ”

"No way, the old men of the academy like him too much." Leonardo, who played opposite Daniel Day Lewis, said, "You know what? Daniel Day Lewis is more down-to-earth than the average artist, and participates in various events in order to canvass for votes, quite like Jack when he was younger. ”

Martin nodded and said to Thomas: "You are in charge of the central liaison, and if you can get a nomination for Best Actor, it is a victory." ”

The brief meeting was over, Leonardo went out to answer the phone, and Jessica went back to the office.

Thomas approached Martin alone and said, "Ali specifically asked me about your contract renewal. ”

Martin's three-year brokerage contract with the WMA is expiring, and many are on the move.

Instead of answering, he asked Thomas, "What do you think?" ”

These words gave Thomas a sense of being taken seriously, as if Martin was referring to his opinion.

After four years of cooperation, Thomas also knows Martin well, thought about it and said: "If WMA can reduce the brokerage share to 5%, and the revenue from DVD and movie rights in the later offline will also be reduced to a proportion that matches your identity, I recommend continuing to choose WMA." ”

He puts himself in the same position as Martin: "We've always worked well with the WMA, there have been no major conflicts, and we've worked with people and companies we know so well that we can get used to the new company." And the WMA is also moving, which will help you run the Best Actor nomination at full strength. ”

Since Martin has made a decision, he will not hesitate: "Go and talk to the WMA, you don't have to hang them, if the negotiation is good, you can directly bring someone over and sign a new contract with me." ”

Thomas answered, left and returned to the agency, going straight into Ali Emmanuel's office.

Martin looked at the time, changed into a handmade Brioni suit, and went out with Leonardo to Kate's residence in Los Angeles.

Kate had a pull party tonight and invited a lot of people to attend.

The car stopped on the side of the road, and when the two got out of the car, they ran into Brian Lorde, a partner at CAA, who also got out of the car.

When the latter saw Martin and Leonardo, his face was a little abnormal, but he still took the initiative to say hello and said to Martin: "Let's talk alone." ”

Martin slowed down a bit and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Although there was some unpleasantness between CAA and Martin, it did not delay Brian Lord to poach Martin: "Your contract with the WMA is about to expire, right?" Interested in joining CAA? ”

Seeing that Martin did not immediately object, Lord said: "The terms of cooperation refer to the treatment of superstars in the circle, and I personally plan your career development for you." ”

Instead of refusing outright, Martin threw the pressure on Thomas and let the agent carry the weight forward: "I had a great time working with Thomas Lane, and I was a good friend in private, so I didn't think about changing agents. ”

Lord immediately heard that Martin had not completely refused, and that he had to get his agent first.

Martin prefers to continue to sign with the WMA, but he does not have to have a WMA, and can use the CAA to put pressure on the WMA to get better terms.

He took a few steps and caught up with Leonardo.

The latter said: "CAA wants to poach you? Actually, there is no need to deal with a brokerage company, I have not signed with any brokerage company since the last time my contract with CAA expired. ”

Martin asked, "Entertainment bill?" ”

"I'm not the only one who is using managers to get jobs." Leonardo had a very unpleasant quarrel with CAA for a while: "Director Scorsese has no agent. ”

Martin is self-aware and currently can't compare to Leonardo and Scorsese: "Your approach doesn't work for everyone. ”

The two enter the mansion and meet the dressed Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes.

After saying hello, Martin and Leonardo were free.

Needless to say, the purpose of the latter is that wherever there is a girl with blonde hair and long legs, his eyes will fall wherever he is.

Leonardo pointed to a corner of the banquet hall: "Look there, your favorite." ”

Martin looked over and spotted Harvey Weinstein and Georgina Chapman.

Leonardo said: "In your early 30s, you are good-looking, and you have a husband, don't you like that? ”

Martin was furious: "Don't slander me, I'm a single-minded person." ”

With that, Martin strode over.

Leonardo, of course, had to cheer on him, and by the way, watch the excitement.

As he approached, Martin offered to say hello, "Hi, Georgina, long time no see." ”

When Georgina saw Martin, her face was full of smiles, and she took the initiative to greet Martin, and said in a cheerful voice: "The two people you introduced, Angela Lindwo, and Carolina, helped me further break into the fashion industry, and my brand not only covers the entertainment industry and awards season, but also appeared on the New York Metropolitan Charity Night this year." ”

Martin smiled and replied, "Congratulations, a great achievement. ”

Georgina showed some closeness to Martin: "You are still willing to help, KK and Angela are full of praise for you." ”

Martin saw Harvey Weinstein approaching and said, "It's good to be able to help you, we're working hard in the circle, it's no big deal, it's best to help each other." ”

These words fell into Harvey's ears, but it was Martin who changed his direction and said, "You have finally figured out the key point. ”

Martin said: "Xavi, I've always admired you very much, there may have been some misunderstandings between us in the past. ”

Georgina interjected: "Yes, if there is a misunderstanding, it would be good to say it in person." She looked at her husband, "Harvey, Martin is very nice. ”

Harvey Weinstein looked at Martin and said, "I'm going to have a party one day and invite you and Leo to it." ”

Leonardo waited to see the show because in his opinion, Martin bastard had ulterior motives, and besides, he and Nicholson also opened a market specifically for Georgina Chapman, preemptively responding: "I'm fine." ”

Martin smiled and nodded.

Georgina picks up the conversation again and talks to Martin about her time with KK and Angela Lindwo.

After chatting for five or six minutes, Martin offered to take his leave.

Leonar walked up and reminded Martin: "Don't forget our bet, when will you start the action and need me and Jack to assist?" The two of us wouldn't mind helping you out. ”

Martin's face darkened: "Am I the kind of person who specializes in getting a wife or girlfriend?" ”

Leonardo nodded solemnly: "You are." ”

Martin was too lazy to say.

Last year, Harvey Weinstein's Pitt's case was not involved, and the News of the World did not expose relevant news, and Martin felt that Harvey Weinstein's Jewishness may have played a role.

Hollywood's Jews are too favored.

An actor of Mel Gibson's level scolded Jews after drinking, and as a result, his career fell off a cliff.

Martin is calm, and it is best to go his own way.

If Xavi still bites him, he also has a way to increase the size.

The screening session is indispensable, but some of the highlights of the film are played.

In particular, Kate's performance is extremely outstanding.

Similarly, in most of the scenes in which Kate appears, there is also Martin as the male lead.

He also got a lot of attention.

Leonardo looked at the picture on the curtain and suddenly stopped speaking.

Until the end of the pull-tab meeting, the crowd dispersed.

Leonardo said to Martin: "I found out that on the level of acting, you are better than me. ”

Martin is not modest at all: "I am much better than you, such as the 100-meter ......"

Leonardo frowned and glared at the triple strike: "You came here in my car, believe it or not I left you here?" ”

Martin shut up and didn't say anything more.

On the other hand, Harvey Weinstein left the Pull-Sheet Club and instead of following Georgina home, he went to a nightclub to participate in the Foot Gang's party.

In the VIP room, Quentin took out a tissue and wiped the corners of his mouth.

If only every guest was like these perverts.

Quentin picked up a tissue and threw it into the trash, reminisced for a while, and said: "Harvey, I have chosen the background of my new film, during World War II, assassinating Hitler." ”

Harvey believed in Quentin's abilities and said, "You take care of the project, and I'll take care of the rest." ”

Quentin said: "At the party last year, I had relevant considerations and wanted to use Brad Pitt as the leading actor, but in the current situation, there are still many unresolved lawsuits against Brad Pitt, and no settlement has been reached, I dare not use him, and his appeal is difficult to say now." ”

"Don't think about Pete." Harvey has followed Pitt's story and knows enough: "Let's stay away from him. As for the actor, I may have a good candidate, and when you write the script, I'll talk to him. ”

Maybe Sanyang Kaitai has burned to 39.7, if it can go down today, it will be updated as usual tomorrow. If you can't code, you can only ask for leave tomorrow.
