Hearing Martin's words, Greg Peters was not surprised, and said with a smile: "Martin, we thought of a place, which is also what Netflix is going to do." ”

David Fincher poured cold water on it: "The existing Internet, computers and ordinary home equipment cannot achieve the effect of watching movies in theaters." ”

Greg has been prepared for this for a long time: "So our self-made content is not a fancy visual effects blockbuster, the first plot. ”

Martin suddenly remembered Jennifer Siebel's film and said: "I have a project in hand, the investment is relatively limited, the genre is partial to romantic comedy, and the prospect of entering the theater is not easy to say. ”

Greg hurriedly asked, "Are you starring?" ”

"I didn't star in it, my studio invested in it." Martin knew how to pique the other person's interest and said, "The heroine is Jennifer Siebel. ”

Greg confirmed: "Jennifer Siebel Newsom? Gavin Newsom's wife? ”

"It's her," Martin said. ”

Greg realized the potential value of the film and said, "Can I read the script?" If you want to sell this film, please let me know first. ”

"I'll have someone give you the script tomorrow." Martin thinks that selling the film to Netflix may make more money: "When the film is finished, I invite you to watch the samples." ”

Greg said to Martin, "I'm not going back to San Francisco today, I'm staying in Los Angeles for one night, and I'm waiting for your script tomorrow." ”

Compared to these two, David Fincher was much more pure, and simply didn't interject.

Greg added, "David, Martin, if there's a suitable project, can you be invited to make quality content for Netflix?" ”

Neither Martin nor David Fincher had any intention of speaking down for the time being.

For David Fincher, a traditional Hollywood director, working with Netflix is not the best choice.

Martin doesn't want to give Netflix any clear answer for the time being.

Netflix wants to expand its territory, and what it can't easily get is the best.

Greg knows it's hard to get through the work of these traditional Hollywood directors and stars, and it's not what he says, but what Netflix can pay.

That was the end of the conversation, and Martin took his leave.

Greg walked out of the ballroom and went to check in.

David Fincher accompanied him upstairs and asked, "Does Netflix really want to invest a lot of money in the project?" ”

"Reed Hastings wanted to make a high-quality series that would continue to attract users, but the project wasn't decided on yet, so I recommended you to him," Greg said. ”

David Fincher's concept will not change for a while: "Wait until I finish 'Gone Girl'." ”

The two got on the elevator and came out, and as soon as they got out of the elevator door, David Fincher saw a familiar person, Hamada, the new president of DC Pictures, and nodded with a smile over there.

Although the two sides are not familiar with each other, they also know each other, and Hamada also responded.

Following Hamada, there is also a blonde actress.

The two men were the first to turn out of the elevator and into the same room.

David Fincher had a vague impression that it seemed to be an Australian actress.

On the other side, Martin returns home to find a couple of guests in the house, and Kristen Stewart next door has come with her buddies to set off fireworks with Elizabeth.

Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlett, the three Stallone sisters, plus the Fanning sisters, led by Elizabeth, moved out of the warehouse and set off fireworks.

It didn't take long for Charlize Theron next door to join in the fun.

There was a commotion for a while, and then everyone dispersed.

Martin and Elizabeth begin a romantic evening for the two.

The next morning, Elizabeth was sent to Louise, and Martin came to the studio and had a copy of the script sent to the Hilton Hotel.

Greg carefully read the script and found that the heroine had many artistic scenes, and called Martin specifically and asked, "Are you sure Jennifer Siebel plays the heroine?" She agreed to play a role in the script? ”

Martin replied, "The script was given to me by Jennifer herself. ”

Greg understood, and said solemnly: "Martin, after this play is completed, you must notify me as soon as possible!" ”

Martin replied, "No problem. ”

As long as the film "Romantic Troubles" is not sparsely filmed, eighty percent of it can be sold.

Martin is still very particular about doing things, while earning profits for himself, he tries his best to keep investors from losing money.

Soon to leave for the filming of "Gone Girl", Martin specially asked Leonardo and Nicholson to have tea in the afternoon.

In Leonardo's mansion, the three of them enjoyed afternoon tea.

Martin questioned Leonardo: "What about the Eastern European party you are talking about?" More than two months have passed, and there is no news at all. ”

Nicholson didn't let him go: "Are you going to take them to the cemetery to see me while I'm lying in the coffin?" ”

Leonardo smiled: "I'll take a bunch of Russian beauties to dance for you." ”

Martin put down the teacup and knocked on the table with his fingers: "Don't change the subject, Leo, what about your promise?" What about conscience? What about morality? What about credibility? Are they all fed to the dogs? ”

Leonardo reasoned and said, "I'm sorry, I recently took a few girls on vacation to Hawaii, I forgot about it, you wait a little, I will contact you soon, and I promise to make you satisfied." “

Nicholson said, "I'll trust you one more time." ”

Martin's direction suddenly changed: "Leo, you may not know, Jack will soon have a new married life. ”

Leonardo came interested: "Really? It's amazing, let me think about it. ”

He first pointed at Nicholson: "You're going to marry a wife, it's dangerous!" He pointed at Martin again: "Jack, have you forgotten what Martin bastard likes to do the most?" ”

Nicholson unconsciously answered: "Someone else's wife or fiancée!" ”

Martin didn't expect these two bastards to join forces.

"Thankfully, I never thought of marrying Meryl Streep," Nicholson said. ”

Martin was speechless: "You two's worries are purely unnecessary. ”

Nicholson patted Martin on the shoulder: "For the sake of our brotherhood, I will never give Meryl any chance." ”

Leonardo answered: "Meryl has 19-year-old Jennifer Lawrence incense." ”

Nicholson countered: "Leo, marry Lorraine, I don't dislike you for being a playboy, go to Las Vegas now to get the license, the wedding or something Martin and I are all covered." ”

"If we get divorced tomorrow, the house will be renamed Nicholson," Martin said. ”

Leonardo angrily rebuked: "I treat you as brothers, but you are plotting against my property!" Very well, I'm going to get you drunk today! ”

The three of them finished afternoon tea and went to the small indoor bar.

Martin and Nicholson picked two bottles out of the most expensive batch of wine in the cellar, and they didn't go home drunk tonight.

Until Leonardo shouted "Giselle Bonchen" again.

In the next two days, Martin went to the crew of "Fast Pursuit 2" one after another to discuss action design issues with Chad and Chen Hu.

Next, he's going to shoot in Mississippi, which could last two months.

Just as Martin left Los Angeles, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button crossed the $200 million mark at the North American box office.

After the Oscars, several popular films rose at the box office, and although "Benjamin" only won two inconsequential awards, it still took advantage of the popularity of the Oscars, and the North American box office achieved a wave of rebound, reaching a total of $203 million.

The film will be screened for a long time and will not be released from North American theaters for the time being.

Overseas, the box office also exceeded 200 million US dollars, and after the Oscars, several countries have purchased the screening rights of the film, and the global box office can rush up again.

The film also surpassed the $327 million of "The Seven Deadly Sins" and created the best box office performance for David Fincher since the film.

With the success of many films in a row, there is a voice in the industry that Martin's ability to monoclonal antibody at the box office is close to the level of a top superstar.

"Gone Girl" also announced the salary of Martin's new film, and the basic salary is as high as $20 million!

Excluding the supplementary remuneration of "Fast Pursuit" and "Benjamin", Martin really entered the 20 million club with "Gone Girl".

No one doubts that Martin was paid $20 million because his studio led the project's investment.

Because of the box office of many movies in the past, it proves that Martin has the capital to get a salary of 20 million US dollars!

The Hollywood Reporter published a front-page headline the next day: Hollywood 20 Million Club has added a new member - Martin Davis!

"In this age of superstardom, Martin Davis deserves the title of superstar more than Johnny Depp and Keanu Reeves, who have only proven strong box office appeal in separate series, while Martin Davis has proven his commercial prowess through a number of different series and different types of films!"

In Burbank's mansion, Blake Lively looked at the entertainment headlines in the Hollywood Reporter and was a little distracted for a while.

Even she didn't expect that the original high-quality stocks would become stars that could quickly compete with Will Smith, Tom Cruise and Leonardo.

Eric Lively came in from outside, and before he could get closer, he said, "God, is the Pacific pouring into your head?" actually took the initiative to give up the heroine of a big production with a production budget of up to 200 million US dollars! ”

Blake didn't bother to take care of this brother who was not sober-headed.

Eric's words were not finished: "Such a good opportunity, my father did so much for you in advance, but you gave up with a word." ”

Blake frowned and asked, "Who got the role?" “

Eric said: "Australian actress Abby Nikosh, I heard that DC Studios president Hamada overrode the crowd and used her as the lead actress. ”

Blake said casually: "I know, this project has nothing to do with me, don't mention it in front of me in the future." ”

Warner Bros. convened a grand press conference, hosted by newcomer CEO Kevin Tsujihara himself, to officially unveil film projects such as "Pharaohs and the Gods" and "Green Lantern".

It also marks the beginning of a new era for Warner.
