Chapter 423: The Prince of Thieves

The art party is diagonally opposite the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and is one of the many hot spots at METGALA in early May.

Martin specially called Mene to come along.

DANIEL HAS ALREADY HELPED GET ANOTHER TICKET TO METGALA.

Heading to Fifth Avenue and entering the vestibule of the private hall where the party was held, Martin met Alexandra.

She wore a close-fitting red one-shoulder evening dress, giving it a heavy feeling.

Next to Alexandra, there is also a slightly younger girl, similar in appearance, height, and hair color to Alexandra, but the size of her chest makes it easy to tell who is the older sister and who is the younger sister.

My sister is at least two sizes younger than my sister.

Alexandra introduced Martin, "This is my sister Catherine, and she also loves to perform, so come over and join in the fun. ”

Catherine was very lively and jumped over and grabbed Martin's arm: "Is it okay to take a group photo?" ”

Martin nodded, "No problem." “

Catherine handed Alexandra her phone and advised, "Take a beautiful picture of me, make Martin a little handsome, don't always take a picture of people who are ten years old like you take pictures of your parents." ”

Alexandra shrugged: "No way, I'm at this level." ”

Mene came over and asked, "Why don't I try it?" ”

With the level he has practiced by taking pictures of many women in their forties and fifties, he can photograph people several years younger.

Alexandra gave the phone to Mene, who crouched down and shot from the bottom up, making it easy to shoot the effect of long legs.

After taking a few shots, Mene returned the camera to Catherine, who was amused: "You did a good job." ”

Mene smiled and said, "I shot a lot, and I practiced it." ”

Catherine's attention quickly turned back to Martin: "Can I show off a picture with you at school?" A lot of on the Upper East Side are always showing off which celebrities they know well, and this time I'm going to show them who's the queen. ”

Martin was polite: "The photo belongs to you, you can show it to anyone." ”

Alexandra beckoned to the group, "Let's go in." ”

The party was filled with modern art works such as sculptures, abstract paintings, crafts and costume design, and many people chatted about elegant topics around different artworks with wine.

The Alexandra sisters were too young, and Mene felt that there was no common topic, so she had to leave Martin a private space, so she found a random reason to leave their side and blend in with the older women's art circle.

Martin chatted with the Daddario sisters and led them into the fashion design and artwork section of their interest.

Unexpectedly, I ran into an acquaintance.

Angela Lindwow saw Martin and offered to come over to say hello.

Martin also gave an introduction to her and the Daddario sisters.

Angela, who has attended two supermodel pre-wedding parties, understands Martin's strengths and weaknesses, and asks directly, "Is this your new girlfriend?" ”

Martin was not embarrassed and said, "Alexandra is my friend in New York. He didn't want to dwell on this, and instead asked, "Haven't you always acted with KK, why didn't you see KK?" “

"You don't know?" After Angela asked, remembering that the news about KK had not yet spread, she said: "KK is sick, there is a problem with her body, Victoria's Secret has terminated her contract, she has been hit hard, if you have time, it is best to visit her." ”

Martin asked, "What disease?" ”

Angela sighed and said, "In terms of thyroid, it is said that there is a problem with the body's endocrine, which caused her to gain a lot of weight. ”

She has a bit of a sisterhood with KK: "KK has always been concerned about you, and she has told me more than once that you are very good, for the sake of our many friendships, you should go and see her." ”

Martin nodded and asked, "She's in New York?" ”

Angela smiled embarrassedly: "I won't be in New York in a few days, and I'll call you then." ”

Martin replied, "Yes." ”

Angela looked at Alexandra and Catherine, who had taken the initiative to stay away, and said, "Have a nice night." ”

Martin couldn't help but laugh: "I'm filming at a Brooklyn studio, and you're welcome to visit the class, and I'll treat you to special food then." ”

Angela thought of something and said, "It's been a long time since I've tasted your special food, and a biology professor at New York University said that the special food of energetic people can help women beautify their faces." ”

Martin was surprised: "There is still such a statement? ”

"We'll just experiment then." Angela quickly left the side.

Martin returns to Alexandra.

The latter asked curiously: "Are you familiar with supermodels?" ”

Martin Xin said that he is not only very familiar with this batch of supermodels who often participate in the Victoria's Secret catwalk, he has talked about the depth many times, and they have also tried the length many times.

"Leonardo and I are best friends." He has always liked to tell the truth: "You should have heard that Leo is very familiar with the supermodel circle, I followed Leo to the wedding parties of Heidi Klum and Alexandre Ambrosio, and I know these people at Victoria's Secret. ”

Alexandra smiled, not knowing what she was thinking, and suddenly said, "Originally, I wanted to develop into the modeling industry, but I couldn't do it when I was fifteen years old. ”

Martin was very cooperative and asked, "Why?" Your parents don't agree. ”

Alexandra looked left and right, and seeing that no one was paying attention to this, she made a chest-supporting gesture: "People in the fashion industry don't want me." ”

Catherine was simply direct: "The people at the modeling training institute dislike her for having too big breasts." ”

Martin didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Catherine added, "Those fools who don't know enough don't want to think that Alexandra is very strong, and what kind of clothes hang on her can hold up." ”

Alexandra feigned annoyance: "That's enough, shut up." “

Catherine pursed her lips and stopped talking.

Someone next to him came to say hello to Martin, which was also a no-brainer, he is now famous, recognizable, and of great commercial value.

While Martin was far away to talk to someone, Alexandra said to Catherine, "You're too direct. “

"I'm giving you an assist, stupid!" Catherine looked like she was thinking about her sister: "I'm telling Martin where your greatest strengths are, so that he can focus on your strengths!" No matter how proud the boy in the school is, he will be tempted to see you so big. ”

Alexandra was quite helpless: "When I was filming, I pressed directly on his arm, but he didn't react at all. ”

Catherine said: "You are stupid, simple, direct, if you want to sleep, he will go straight to it!" A high-quality man like him, when he leaves New York, it will be difficult for you to meet again. ”

She's also not a fuel-efficient lamp: "If you don't want to sleep, just let it go, don't get in the way." ”

Alexandra rolled her eyes angrily: "You're only 16 years old, 16 years old!" ”

Catherine disagreed: "What's wrong with 16? Is there no freedom and human rights at the age of 16? ”

On the other side, it was producer Granham King, who often collaborated with Scorsese, who came to greet Martin.

Martin is familiar with him who has just worked with him on "The Departed".

Graham also introduced a middle-aged man to Martin, saying, "This is Chuck Hogan, a home from Boston. ”

He looked at Martin again: "Martin, I don't need to introduce me, right?" ”

Chuck Hogan stepped forward to shake Martin's hand and said, "You played the Departed very well, I, a Bostonite, watched it and thought you were a native of Boston." ”

Because of Granham, Martin was polite: "Because I've lived in Boston for a long time, I realized that it's a city with a lot of traditions, and there are many, many moving stories happening in the city. ”

Graham smiled and said, "You two don't have to be so polite, Director Scorsese is our mutual good friend." ”

Martin asked, "I heard that director Scorsese's new project is about to start preparations?" ”

"Yes, your good brother, Leo, will be coming to New York soon." Graham said simply: "I'll come here to prepare first, Director Scorsese is very demanding this time, and the preparations may last a year, and that guy Leo is going to be unlucky, he may have to go into a mental hospital to actually experience life." ”

When Martin heard this, he was happy: "I will definitely call Leo when I go back and cheer him on." ”

Graham laughed and turned the subject back to Chuck Hogan: "Aren't you selling?" The person in front of him has the ability to promote the adaptation. ”

He also said to Martin: "Don't look at Chuck's fame, but he is very talented, and in the writing circle, some of his works are compared to Stephen King. ”

Chuck said modestly: "It's all a few friends joking, don't take it seriously." ”

Martin looked at Graham curiously, who understood what he meant, and explained: "In the next few years, I'm going to be working on a new film project for director Scorsese and helping him shoot a series about Prohibition for HBO, and I don't have time. “

Chuck couldn't embarrass Graham: "Martin, if you have time, can you take a look at me?" A story about Boston. ”

Most families have dreams of adapting their works.

Not to mention anything else, even if the film and television adaptation is not good, the sales will increase significantly, not to mention the related copyright income.

Although Martin has not heard of his reputation, he is serious about the "Neverending" unearthed by "Dark Realm": "I have experienced life in Boston, and I am very interested in Boston stories. ”

Graham patted Chuck, "Get the book here." ”

Chuck beckoned to the back, and a man came over with a bag and pulled a book out of it.

Obviously, this person came prepared to participate in the cultural and art party.

It is also possible to carry a book with you, meet the right person, and recommend it anytime, anywhere.

Chuck handed it to Martin along with a personal business card with personal contact information and a personal studio address.

Martin then put away his business card and looked at the cover, which was called "The Prince of Thieves".

He recalled slightly, and for a while he couldn't remember the movie with that name.
