In the luxurious villa near the sea, a camera is set up in the huge living room, and a few crew members are busy.

In the director's chair, Jenna Jones wears a headset and listens to a live recording of the previous shoot.

The effect is not bad, and it sounds quite pleasant.

Jenna looked up and saw that the actor was already in place, and the actress still hadn't come.

She glanced at her watch and said, "What about the Bibi people?" Why haven't you come yet, it's ten minutes late! ”

In the sound of hurried high heels falling to the ground, a woman walked quickly and said to Jenna: "Director, Bibi is suddenly unable to play in advance." ”

Because of the artistic performance, the actress has a temporary situation, which is very common during filming, and Jenna just asked, "Are you sure?" ”

The woman said, "I saw it with my own eyes. ”

It was too late to find another actor temporarily, Jenna got up and took off her coat and said, "I'm on top of this scene." ”

She glanced at her assistant: "You will be on the next scene." ”

The woman nodded, "I'll get ready." ”

Jenna, the director, became a director and actress, and she performed herself.

After filming several scenes in a row, Jenna put on a blanket and returned to the director's seat to watch the playback, carefully examining her scenes with the actors, and if there was anything unsatisfactory, she would have to reshoot.

The female assistant came over with her mobile phone at this time: "Director, your phone has been called several times in a row." ”

Jenna took it and connected: "Hello?" ”

The guy over there said directly: "Brad Pitt is out of prison......"

The voice was unfamiliar, Jenna didn't know who it was, but she knew what to do, and said, "Thank you, I know." ”

He said another address and hung up.

Jenna's company, she also has shares, and there are quite a few shares.

Brad Pitt's value, don't even think about it.

She draped herself in a blanket and came to the balcony where no one was around, and regardless of the leakage of the spring, she dialed a phone and said, "Anderson, Pete is out of prison, can you find a way to see him?" Well, I'm waiting for your good news. ”

In fact, Jenna has always wanted to make a scene with Martin, buy the adaptation rights of so many Martin's movies, and then shoot a real action scene with Martin, the effect will definitely explode.

At first, she had fantasies.

As Martin gets higher and higher, Jenna knows that this can only be a fantasy.

Then, it would also be a good result for the actor in the next film of her to be replaced by Brad Pitt.

…………

Los Angeles, Passanady.

Pete, who was released on parole, walked into the bar alone, sat down at the bar and asked for a large beer.

He didn't have much money on him, so he even made plans for drinking, and he didn't dare to ask for expensive wine.

But after going through hellish prison, Pete feels that life is really not easy now.

You don't have to sleep next to the toilet, you don't have to worry about being beaten when you are in the wind, and you don't have to worry about being when you are in the wind.

Pete thinks about the Affleck brothers, and instead thinks he's one of the lucky ones.

"Two glasses of golden whiskey." A person sat next to him, and pointed to Pete at the bartender: "I'll invite Brad for a drink, I'm his fan." ”

Pete smiled at him, "Thank you." Then he asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

The man introduced himself and gave him a business card: "Anderson, art director of an art company." ”

Pete looked down at his business card and realized what kind of art company it was, after all, he had almost signed a contract with another art company before Big Ben asked him to go back to Los Angeles.

Anderson said: "Brad, we sincerely invite you to join us, and we will assemble the best team for you, equipped with the best script and costumes, and let the most popular director and actress Jenna Jones partner with you." ”

Pete doesn't care about any of this now, and asks directly, "What about income?" ”

"The base remuneration is $5 million per year, plus a share of sales," Anderson said. ”

This is an unprecedentedly high salary among the artists of the Sacred Valley, both as a director and as an actor.

Pete was thinking about it very seriously.

Because he almost signed a contract with another company before, these are not taboos for him at all.

Money is essential if you want to guarantee your quality of life.

Except acting, Pete will not do anything else.

Hollywood and everything related to Hollywood, he can't go back.

Pete made a decision on his mind, but said something else: "I want a base remuneration of $10 million, plus half of the income from the work." ”

For the Sacred Valley Company, this is tantamount to a lion's mouth, but Anderson is secretly happy in his heart, Pete said such a thing, which means that he does not reject joining the Sacred Valley, and everything is discussed.

After several days of tug-of-war negotiations, in late September, Sacred Valley suddenly broke a shocking news that Brad Pitt, a former Hollywood superstar who had just been released from prison on parole, officially signed a contract with Sacred Valley Art Company to become a real artist.

The news has caused a certain sensation, and it has aroused the expectations of the people in the United States.

They can't wait to see the art masterpiece starring Pitt.

Jenna Jones is ready to personally plan the debut project for Pete and has a character - Nick Dunn.

Pitt won't be able to officially join Sacred Valley filming until he completes his testimony against Harvey Weinstein, so it's going to take a while.

By that time, "Gone Girl" had already been released in North America.

Jenna Jones has won the rights to remakes of almost every hit movie starring Martin, and she doesn't think it's a problem to get the rights to Sacred Valley for this one.

And on this copyright issue, after Pete signed the contract, Jenna communicated with Martin by phone.

…………

The Ritz-Carlton, New York.

In the luxury suite, Julie started from the wall of the hall, kept accelerating, rushed through the hall, and hit Martin's back at a speed of 100 meters.

Then Aniston yelled.

Hearing the roar, Julie smiled and took a few steps back, and one of them sprang out and crashed into Martin again.

Aniston shouted, "Are you crazy tonight?" Running back and forth, bumping back and forth, aren't you tired? ”

Julie's laughter was particularly crisp: "Aren't you going to celebrate Pete joining the Sacred Valley in the most special way?" ”

She crashed into Martin again.

"Yes, it's the craziest celebration ever!" Aniston has often been attacked by Martin and Jolie in recent years, and she is about to turn black: "Anji, you haven't eaten tonight, why don't you have any strength at all." ”

With a bang, Julie crashed into Martin again.

The mad woman's elbow hit Martin's waist, and he couldn't help but bare his teeth in pain.

Martin said, "You two, don't you ask for my opinion?" ”

Julie smiled and said, "You are now just a tool person for us to celebrate, and tool people have no right to express their opinions. ”

"You want to turn the sky upside down?" Martin grabbed Julie back and pushed her onto the couch.

He pressed Aniston with one hand and picked up the statue of the clown next to him with the other.

It was a statue of a standing clown modeled after him.

Martin twitched the clown statue and decided to teach Julie a good lesson.

Soon, a duet sounded in the room.

After a poker round, the trio went into the bathroom to take a shower, and when they came out, Martin opened a bottle of champagne.

He poured three glasses, picked up his champagne glass, and said, "The good news you have brought is worth a drink." ”

Aniston and Julie clinked glasses with him and drank the cup to his heart's content.

Martin poured the wine one by one.

Aniston looked at Martin and then at Julie, and said, "When I got divorced, I never dreamed that the three of us would end up sitting together." ”

Julie raised an eyebrow: "I made all this happen, you have to thank me well." ”

"I will." Aniston turned to Martin and said, "I'll get someone to modify the statue and replace it with an electric one, the kind where the clown's head can turn quickly." ”

Julie was not afraid at all, but was full of interest: "Make two out, and let Martin double-hold at that time." ”

Martin ignored the nonsense of these two people, and said seriously: "You also have considerable influence in Hollywood." ”

"It can influence a group of people," Aniston said. ”

Julie's statement is different: "I'm a leader. ”

Martin said: "This year's Oscar vote in your hand, the one for Best Actor, the first one to choose Leo." ”

Aniston was a little surprised: "I thought you said you wanted us to vote for you." ”

"The bastard trio has four Oscars, and none of them are Leo's." Martin sighed: "Speaking of which, Jack and I are also disgraced. ”

Julie said, "It's okay to vote for him, you have to sell some power tonight." ”

Aniston said, "Let's go to the second round. ”

Martin said that when he turned around, he must tell Leonardo that in order for him to win the Oscar for Best Actor, he even fought for his life, and it was still free.

For half the night, Martin didn't have a drop left.

After Julie and Aniston fell asleep, he ran to the study and called Leonardo, regardless of the fact that this guy was sleeping soundly with his female companion in his arms, angrily accusing Leonardo of not being human, making Leonardo confused the next day.

Julie and Aniston were only in New York for one day, and then they went about their own business.

In the days that followed, Martin received an invitation to lunch from Warren Buffett, Coca-Cola's largest shareholder, while filming.

This is certainly not an auctioned Buffett luncheon, but a private gathering.

Subsequently, Martin came to visit and enjoyed a very ordinary steak in Buffett's apartment.

The conversation between the two focused on the cult of the gods of Coke and the Coca-Cola commemorative brand.

Warren Buffett believes that Martin can further use the Coca-Cola brand to expand the influence of the Coca-Cola brand.

The two chatted for a long time, and it was not until mid-afternoon that Martin said goodbye and left.

The crew then ended filming in New York and most of the crew returned to Los Angeles, with only Chad leading a team that accompanied Martin to Italy to shoot street scenes in Rome.

There aren't many of these scenes, most of them are Martin walking on the streets, and it's relatively simple to film.

In October, the crew of "Fast and Furious 2" ended all the filming in Rome, and Martin did not stop in Italy and returned to Los Angeles with Chad.
