In Atlanta, Robert rushed back to his office from outside, turned on the TV and tuned to ABC, and the Oscar red carpet broadcast had begun.

Jerome pushed the door open and entered, still carrying a crate of canned beer.

Robert took it and said, "The red carpet has begun." ”

Jerome asked, "What are Martin's chances of winning?" ”

Robert looked at the newly placed '03 Coke on the old-fashioned wooden table and said, "In the first two Oscars, Martin never called me for a ceremony, but this time he made a special call. ”

Jerome knew that Robert was the high priest of the Cult of Coke, and immediately nodded: "It seems that Martin has the confidence to win." ”

Suddenly there was a cheer on the TV, followed by a uniform earth-shattering shout.

"Eternal Cult of Coke! Forever Coke God of War! Forever Master Martin! ”

The two watched on live TV, in which Martin held up a commemorative can of Coke and drank it with many members of the Cult of Coke.

Jerome said: "I've never seen a spokesperson who can do Martin's degree, and in two life-and-death moments, Martin won with Coca-Cola, and the publicity value is so great that no advertising can compare to it!" ”

Rob nodded: "Coca-Cola, the lifelong spokesperson, Martin deserves it." ”

In front of the Kodak Theater, Martin took Elizabeth's hand and went into the media area together, said a few words routinely, and quickly left.

It's been high-profile enough lately that there's no need to show it here anymore.

Upon entering the hall, Martin meets Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey.

Donnie opened his arms directly, hugged Martin, and said, "Man, congratulations. ”

Martin shook Susan's hand before responding to Downey: "The results have not yet been announced, everything is possible." ”

Susan thought back to four years ago and said, "Martin, you're developing so fast, you've become a superstar in the blink of an eye." ”

Martin laughed and said, "It's lucky. ”

Donnie clenched his fists and bumped into Martin again: "You kid, how can people compete with you?" It's not fair! ”

Martin was helpless: "That's my bad luck. ”

Downey thought about it, it was true, but if Martin was a little weaker, there would probably be a memorial or commemoration of Martin all over the United States.

He has seen the scenery of the peak, and has also experienced the loneliness of the valley, and is on the way back to the peak, he has a good attitude, nodded and said: "All this is what you deserve." ”

Susan Downey rarely speaks, obviously in front of outsiders, and everything is dominated by Downey.

The four of them entered the hall together, and the two crews were separated by a relatively long distance, and they quickly separated.

Martin took Elizabeth to the second row where the Dark Knight crew was, and Nolan got up and took the initiative to shake his hand: "Completely recovered?" ”

The last time he visited Martin in the hospital, Martin was still an injured patient.

Martin smiled and nodded: "The Martin you are familiar with is really back." ”

With the opportunity of this hospitalization, Martin also got rid of his mental illness and is now fully recovered.

The crew nominees for Best Editing and Best Sound also came over and punched Martin.

In fact, they all know that the most promising person to win tonight is Martin.

Nicholson and Leonardo came over one after the other, and the location was right next to Martin.

Leonardo saw that Martin was alive again, and deliberately said: "You bastard, you almost made me and Jack spend an extra sum of money to customize the costume!" ”

Martin was surprised: "What does this have to do with me?" ”

Nicholson answered, "Attend your bastard's funeral!" ”

Elizabeth looked at the three people strangely, confused about the friendship of men, especially the three sand sculptures next to them, and made all kinds of messy jokes.

"I can't help it, I rolled around the gate of hell, and Satan was stunned and didn't let me in." Martin said matter-of-factly, "He said that hell will take everything, but there are only three things that will not be accepted!" ”

Leonardo was very cooperative: "Which three? ”

Martin pointed to the two of them, as well as himself, and said, "Nicholson, Leonardo, and Martin Davis!" Because Satan is afraid that we will Him! ”

Both old fellows laughed.

Three bastards, hand in hand in front of life and death, a real super dead friend.

Nicholson then said: "The bastard trio took out a dozen gunmen and terrorists in a row, and their fame spread all over Hollywood!" ”

Leonardo held his head high, with honor.

Without his 11-second 100m, there would have been no Nicholson's condescending command and Martin would not have been able to take out the bandits.

Martin also laughed: "The three of us joined forces, and even Satan didn't dare to accept it, let alone others!" ”

Leonardo answered: "Today Nicholson and I are both presenting guests. ”

"Originally, I wanted to be the guest of honor for Best Picture, but lately I have had enough exposure for someone else," Martin said. ”

Nicholson added: "There will be surprises. ”

While she was talking, Kate Winslet came over and Martin got up and hugged her.

Kate glanced at Elizabeth and saw that she was smiling sweetly, and her mood was depressed because of marital problems, she instantly improved, and said, "Your smile is brighter than the sun in Los Angeles." ”

Elizabeth smiled and said, "Thank you, Kate, you are the actor I admire the most, I was hopelessly obsessed with Ruth when I was a child." ”

Kate nodded at her and said to Martin, "Good luck tonight." ”

Not far away, Harvey Weinstein cast an attentive gaze and secretly sighed that Martin was so lucky that he didn't get killed, and he was a blessing in disguise.

Next to him, Georgina Chapman was also looking at Martin, her eyes sparkling.

Compared to the fat old man next to him, Martin is like a real man.

Invite Martin to the house for a party another day?

Harvey turned his head, but he didn't notice anything unusual about his wife, because his mind was on Martin.

Quentin's World War II film production was rejected by Martin, and Harvey once considered using Big Ben, but Big Ben was stuck in a whirlpool and couldn't extricate himself.

Because Martin has been known for picking films and selecting roles in recent years, after the news of his rejection of Quentin's new work spread, several first-line male stars received Harvey's invitation, all of which were vague, resulting in a very unsmooth progress of the project.

Harvey and Quentin even let Matt Damon audition, but the latter lacks the gangsterism that the protagonist needs.

Thinking of the predicament he is facing, and looking at Martin on the other side, Xavi's heart is even more unbalanced, if nothing else, Martin will win an Oscar tonight.

The music started to play, and with Hugh Jackman appearing, the awards ceremony officially kicked off.

This male star who can sing and dance brings a gorgeous opening song and dance performance, and ends the singing with the lyrics of "I am Wolverine".

Next to Martin, Nicholson and Leonardo got up to go backstage.

The latter deliberately said: "The surprise is coming soon." ”

Martin has speculated that there have been rumors that in order to save the declining ratings, the college has made a lot of innovations at this year's awards ceremony, such as the award presenters.

As in previous years, the first award was Best Supporting Actress, and this time five award presenters were found to appear together.

The number of award presenters in the back varied, breaking the more rigid model of the past.

After Hugh Jackman teased about the Santa Monica pier shooting, it's time for Best Supporting Actor.

Martin sat down, a little nervous, but more in anticipation.

Elizabeth clutched the edge of her seat with both hands, more nervous than Martin, licked her red lips slightly, and murmured, "God forbid!" ”

At Beverly Hills' home, Lily, who was watching the live broadcast, had already stood up, and then sat back on the couch and laughed happily.

Because she saw the award presenters, unlike the five for Best Supporting Actress, there were only two - Nicholson and Leonardo!

The eldest and second of the bastard trio appeared together to present a Best Supporting Actor award!

These two people, either alone, are more than enough to be the presenters of the Best Picture, but together they present the Best Supporting Actor.

The answer is self-explanatory.

Nicholson was the first to say: "Leo, the two of us together have three Oscar trophies, tell me how you feel about the Oscars?" ”

Leonardo's trademark glare, frowning, and roaring: "Don't say that we are added together, obviously you have three, I don't!" ”

Nicholson pointed to the big screen behind him: "There's a new Oscar winner coming soon." ”

Accompanied by clips of film clips playing on the big screen, Leonardo reads: "The nominees for Best Supporting Actor are Josh Brolin, Philip Hoffman, Martin Davis, Robert Downey Jr., ......"

Nicholson opened the envelope, took out the card inside, and placed it in front of the two of them.

Leonardo leaned over and joined him in saying, "The winner is Martin Davis!" ”

Martin held his face with both hands, surprised and excited, and his mood was extremely comfortable, this feeling was extremely good!

Elizabeth opened her arms and hugged him hard.

Martin kissed her and stood up to hug Nolan and the rest of the crew.

The audience burst into extremely warm applause.

Angelina Jolie's seat was on the other side, and she stood up and applauded, and reached out to signal everyone around her to stand up.

The same goes for Aniston, who is seated in the middle.

Many guests in the front row stood up and applauded.

Martin strode across the stage, only applause in his ears.

More and more people stood up, as if pushed by the tide, and the audience in the back row also stood up.

By the time Martin reached the edge of the stage, the entire Kodak Theater stood up and applauded!

Martin walked onto the stage and took over the heavy Oscar statuette from Leonardo.

Leonardo hugged him and slapped him the back, and Martin hurt when he patted him.

Nicholson was smiling happily and watching the show.

In Atlanta, seeing Martin get the golden man, Robert and Jerome opened the champagne, poured a glass each, and clinked glasses to celebrate.

At the Beverly Hills home, Lily jumped to her feet, shouted loudly, opened a bottle of wine, and drank.

At this moment, the Martin commemorative version of Coca-Cola distributed throughout the United States was sold out!
