"Whenever I think of my wife, I always think of her head."

This is the first sentence of the printed text that Martin saw, and then the description from the perspective of the male protagonist.

The title of the manuscript is "The Gone Girl".

There is a book in the book, and the heroine is a heroine serialized with an illustration called "The Amazing Amy".

Martin didn't need to watch much to be able to confirm that this was David Fincher's "Gone Girl".

In his previous life, he had seen all of David Fincher's works.

Gillian waited patiently for Martin to read her work.

From the very beginning of mentioning the idea to Martin, Gillian actually had plans and goals, and the "Dark Realm" she introduced to Martin has been adapted into a movie and released into a movie, and has also won nearly $400 million at the global box office, and the original author Alan Greon has become a hot writer in Hollywood.

Originally, Alan Green was not as good as her.

Through marriage and divorce, Gillian changed her fate once and achieved a leap in social class.

If she wants to change her fate again, she believes that the work and Martin are the key.

Gillian had carefully studied Martin's preferred style, so she wrote such a dark and gloomy theme with a lot of fun and twists and turns.

Martin was quick to browble, and it didn't take long for him to put down the printed paper.

With some anticipation, Gillian asked, "Martin, am I okay with my writing?" ”

Martin doesn't say anything useless either, it's very direct: "The plot is very engaging, although it doesn't fit the mainstream of Hollywood. ”

Gillian smiled embarrassedly: "Sometimes, I also feel that the subject matter and human nature are too dark. ”

But writers often have their own insistences, and she adds: "I have always believed that even between the most intimate couples, there are some chilling secrets that may remain in the heart for the rest of their lives, or they may burst out of the ground at any time, thrive, and become creepy." ”

Martin knew that Gillian had been divorced, and that a failed marriage would inevitably have an impact on her.

The eerie chill and dark humor are precisely the most fascinating aspects of this work.

The atmosphere of the work is gloomy, and there is no blood spurting between the lines, but the violence is vividly written, and the most valuable point is that it is not only thrilling, but also funny and funny.

"Actually, I also like the thrilling dark style." Martin was telling the truth, he patted the printed transcript: "Gillian, we are old friends, "Neverending" also comes from your introduction, if you agree, Davis Studio can now fund the film and television adaptation rights of this work, and invest resources to promote its publication and large-scale distribution." ”

There's one thing Martin doesn't have to tell anyone else about Ben Affleck.

Gillian waited for this day and said without hesitation: "I am willing to work with Davis Studios, and the film adaptation of the work has always been my dream." ”

Martin cautioned: "It may take a few years to wait until you've written it all and published it before you can push the adaptation." ”

Gillian, who is a reporter for Entertainment Weekly, knows all about these things, saying: "No problem, I promise to finish the rest within a year." ”

"Let your agent negotiate with my studio," Martin said. ”

Gillian nodded: "I'll call the agent when I get back." ”

She does not have a full-time agent, but she is a member of the Writers Association, which will recommend suitable candidates for her to protect her interests.

That's what it means to pay your dues.

Leaving this part of the printed manuscript, Gillian excitedly returned home, found a bottle of champagne, opened it, poured a glass, and celebrated herself.

She went to the second floor, looked across the road at Martin's house, and sighed that she had finally waited for the moment to change her fate.

Martin put away the printed manuscript, called Jessica, and explained the matter carefully, and someone would send her the manuscript tomorrow.

Lily packed up her things, came down from the upper floor, and asked, "How do you solve dinner?" ”

Martin looked at the time: "You find a place to eat, I have an appointment with Lao Bu in the evening." He specially reminded: "Go back to your dormitory at night." ”

Lily puffed out her cheeks, dissatisfied: "I want to sneak the woman back again." ”

"What do you mean by smuggling? I'm bringing the brightness of the light! Martin picked up the car keys and walked out: "Elizabeth is my public girlfriend. ”

Lily emboldened: "You have more undisclosed girlfriends in Los Angeles. ”

Martin shook his head: "Don't slander people, Julie and Aniston, they are just lovers who get together to play when they think about it." ”

Lily wanted to speak again, but saw Martin raise her fist and obediently shut her mouth.

The iron fist of love, she has experienced too much in recent years.

Martin drove a random car out of the garage and went out of the house with Bruce, who was driving alone.

Lily picked up her car keys and was about to get out of the villa when she found cups, coffee makers, and beer cans on the coffee table in the living room.

Because Martin came back, the originally tidy living room was a little messy.

Lily consciously put down the car keys, first cleaned up the garbage, then the sofa, and finally brought a rag......

It took nearly half an hour to finish the work.

Lily got on the red Cadillac and took out her mobile phone to dial the tutor: "Madam, our exhibition will last for a few days, can the booth vacated by the sale of sculptures today continue to be left for me?" ”

Thinking that after Julie and Aniston touted it, Lily became a little more well-known, and sold a work at a high price today, and the mentor said: "That booth is yours, as long as you have a suitable work, send it over before the start tomorrow." ”

Lily thought of Cassie Affleck's generosity today, and asked tentatively, "Can the pricing be raised a bit?" I may have the right customers to buy from here. ”

The artist was originally praised, and the mentor was used to it, so he responded: "This is no problem, I will communicate with the organizer." ”

Lily said in the sweetest voice, "Thank you, ma'am." ”

The female tutor in her fifties suddenly made a request: "I heard that the big star Mene and Martin are good friends, can you help me get a signed photo of Mene?" ”

Recently, she has attended several gatherings of successful women in the art world, and has often heard people talk about Mene, and she has seen his films and is very interested in him.

Lily knew Mene, so she just went to ask for it, and immediately complied.

Halfway through the car, Lily receives a text message on her phone, which is from Cassie Affleck.

She thought for a moment and replied: "I'm ready to turn off the phone, I want to devote myself to my work, tomorrow the college will continue to leave me a booth, and I will finish carving a few works that are about to be completed." ”

The other side quickly replied with a message: "I'll go see your new work tomorrow." ”

Lily drove back, thinking about the money she had to settle for without making Cassie Affleck's flesh hurt so much that it disappeared.

…………

Because Bruce asked Khloe to go to the Lakers game with him, Martin came to the Griffith Observatory alone.

After a little waiting, Elizabeth Olsen, who had finished class, came to the observation deck and almost ran in front of Martin.

Martin had already waited with open arms.

Elizabeth knew Martin's physical strength, so she jumped up and threw herself into Martin's arms, wishing that the whole person would get into Martin's body.

Martin hugged her around and said, "You seem to be lighter than before." ”

Elizabeth was very happy and smiled like honey: "Really? I'm losing weight. ”

"Did I try to lose weight elsewhere?" Martin kissed Elizabeth.

After a long kiss, the two went to a nearby restaurant with a view, sitting by the window, looking up at the starry sky without obstruction, and looking down at the most prosperous night scene in Los Angeles.

As for the taste of the meal or something, it's all secondary.

The couples who come here want this romantic atmosphere.

Elizabeth helped Martin peel a shrimp with an apologetic face: "I went to an acting school to learn acting, and there happened to be classes in the afternoon, and the school invited Judy Dench to come over ......"

Martin didn't care about this: "It's okay, didn't we meet?" ”

Elizabeth stuffed the shrimp into Martin's mouth, blinked, smiled sweetly, and whispered, "Now I'll feed you, and you'll feed me when you're done." ”

After eating, the two did not stop at the observatory and drove back to Martin's home.

Before, Elizabeth fed Martin, and now it's Martin's turn to feed Elizabeth.

Bruce wouldn't be back tonight, and after it was completely dark, Martin simply carried Elizabeth up to the top terrace to look at the stars.

Elizabeth poured Martin a glass of wine, served it to him, and asked, "Is the Beverly Hills house almost finished?" ”

"It should be soon, I haven't been there." Martin took the initiative to invite: "Let's go and see it tomorrow?" ”

Elizabeth said, "Yes! ”

The next day, it was almost noon before the two of them came out of the house and headed to Beverly Hills together.

Coming to Sunset Boulevard North, Martin drove straight into the gate and followed the main road to the villa.

Schmidt, the person in charge of the construction, was waiting in the small square of the fountain in front of the villa.

Seeing Martin and the two get out of the car, after saying hello, he took the two into the villa.

The main building and auxiliary buildings of the villa have all been renovated, and only the underground vault, storage room, and backyard are still under construction.

The former is mainly to change doors and locks to improve the security level.

The latter raised the fence so that people could easily descend from the heights of the hillside or peep.

Martin takes privacy and anti-theft very seriously, and although he aspires to be a good photographer, he doesn't want to be a teacher Chen.

Elizabeth was most interested in the fitness room, recreation room and indoor pool, and would have dragged Martin down for a swim if it weren't for the lack of water in the pool.

Arriving in the master bedroom on the second floor, Elizabeth took a closer look at the cloakroom, thinking about how she could fill it.

After some planning, while Martin was talking to Schmidt, Elizabeth took out a photo frame with Martin from her satchel and placed it on the bedside table in the master bedroom.

Martin found out, looked back, but didn't say anything.

In the future, his house will not be the only one.

The sound of construction came from outside, and Martin beckoned Elizabeth: "Let's go, we can't move in a short time." ”

The two went downstairs, and before leaving, Martin asked again, "Did the neighbor say hello?" ”

Schmidt pointed to the left and right: "The houses on this side are currently vacant and the economy is sluggish. Miss Lily Carter has visited her here, and the owner is Charlize Theron, who is currently filming outside and doesn't mind. ”
