MGM Plaza, Las Vegas.

After the media and fan meeting ended, Martin left the event and quietly led Bruce to the back door of the hotel.

A black Rolls-Royce Phantom was waiting in front of the door.

Seeing Martin and Bruce coming out, Mene quickly got out of the car, opened the door and beckoned the two to get into the car: "Before the reporter comes, let's hurry up."

Martin got into the car, looked at it a little, and said, "This is a good car."

Bruce closed the door and said, "The new Phantom is still a limited edition, it's not cheap."

Mene let the driver drive first, and then said, "I don't know the exact price, it's a birthday present from Celine."

Bruce was envious, "No woman has ever given me such an expensive birthday present."

Martin said, "I'll give Kim and Kohler a call."

Mene continued, "And Jody! Lao Bu, with your ability, as long as you show a little meaning, they will definitely send it to the door obediently."

Martin and Bruce didn't stay long, there was a media event tomorrow, and after dinner and a little chat, they said goodbye and left.

Bruce said, "You can live like Scott."

When Mene came over, she took Mene by the arm and said, "Welcome to our new home."

Bruce couldn't help but sigh: "False winner in life - Martin's real winner in life - Mene!"

Martin sighed, "When we were in Atlanta, if I had the skills of Uncle Mene, why would I be so tired now?"

Mene and Celine Dion did not invite other guests, and exclusively entertained Martin and Bruce.

Mene and Martin laughed.

In the special elevator, there are only two people, Martin and Bruce.

Bruce really wants to slap himself in the face, what is Sophia doing if he has nothing to do?

Martin didn't let him go: "Denis Villeneuve's "Border Killer", I'm going to raise money from Wu Maoting and the Beast House Entertainment Company, you can talk about it at the Beast House."

Martin handed the gift to the butler next to him, followed Mene and Celine Dion inside, and looked at the living room slightly, the house was definitely newly renovated, probably no more than a year old.

Mane and Celine Dion were like men and women, sending them to the car.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom entered the Samlin district and quickly turned into a manor house and stopped in front of a European-style villa.

Martin agreed: "I don't know about others, Jody will definitely send it."

Martin and Bruce got out of the car and followed Mene into the villa.

Bruce Muran: "And then my pelvis shattered."

Celine Dion waited at the entrance of the living room and greeted, "Hi, Martin; Hi, Lao Bu."

Bruce said, "I'm your bodyguard."

Hearing Scott's name, Martin remembered his old friend Sophia and said, "Old Bu, you have more personal experience."

In front of her friends, Celine Dion gave Mene face everywhere, looking completely dominated by Mene.

Back at the hotel, take the elevator upstairs.

"No, you're my manager." Martin happily stepped out of the elevator.

After staying in Las Vegas for two days, the crew moved to San Francisco.

At the same time, "Thieves in the City" spent its second weekend in North American theaters.

In May, at the beginning of the summer season, there are basically heavyweight films released every weekend.

Twentieth Century Fox's "Star Trek 2" hit hard, and it topped the box office with $70.15 million at the beginning.

"Thieves in the City" slipped to second place, but it was steady enough, earning $35.87 million the following weekend.

Counting weekday revenues, the film grossed more than $100 million at the North American box office.

But compared to the $112 million North American box office, the film was released in more than a dozen overseas markets in Europe and Latin America this week

The sound was more average, with only $18.92 million coming in.

…………

San Francisco, Bay Area.

Martin sat in front of the window of the waterfront restaurant and looked ahead at the Golden Gate Bridge lit up at night.

This place can enjoy the scenery of most of the Bay Area.

Elon Musk, on the other side, said, "Good news for you."

Martin withdrew his gaze and said, "Are you going to marry Amber Heard?"

"How is that possible!" Musk's head is very sober: "Play and play, help and help, marry her?" No way!"

He got back to the point: "Your investment in Tesla has nearly tripled in value."

Martin held up his glass, "Congratulations."

Musk clinked glasses with him and took a sip of wine, saying in his usual style: "It's all because I'm so good at it."

Martin has benefited so much that he doesn't mind touting him, "Elon, you bastard is a business genius, try to become the richest man in the world as soon as possible."

Both sides of Musk's smiling face shook vigorously: "You will be the richest man in Hollywood by then."

"I hope so." Martin, of course, doesn't have a lot of money.

Musk asked, "Hasn't there been a notice of the start of filming for Nolan's "Interstellar"?"

"I haven't received a call yet, and I guess it's going to be June at the earliest," Martin said.

He remembered one thing: "Your ex-wife Tanlula, I introduced it to the crew, and I should play a supporting role with some weight."

"Thanks." Musk gave Martin a glass and said, "I'll be on the crew then."

Martin asked, "You're going to make a cameo role too?"

Musk said: "Part of the sponsorship deal, the character belongs to a researcher at the joint command of NASA and SpaceX, and it is estimated that there are a few lines, and in the style of director Nolan, I may be given a few seconds of footage in the film, lines...... It's all going to be cut off."

"Want to play a role with a line?" Martin's knife grinded, "I have a few film projects here, Elon, and you are welcome to pay for them."

Musk said, "Do you still have a movie that is going to go to space or a futuristic sci-fi movie?"

Martin shook his head: "Not for the time being, most of the films shot next year and the year after next year are schizophrenic......

"You're going to catch the Hollywood trend too?" Musk asked, "Shoot those weird characters?"

Martin understood what he was referring to, and just shook his head.

The two chatted while eating, and near the end of dinner, Musk proposed: "In the second half of this year or the first half of next year, I may have a wedding, and you will be my best man."

"Are you sure?" Martin said directly, "I'm going to steal all the limelight from you."

Musk's self-confidence is bursting: "Bill Gates and Warren Buffett appeared together, and they couldn't steal the limelight from me."

Martin wondered, "No, you said just now that you wouldn't marry Amber Heard."

"Yes, I'm not going to marry her." Musk is just playing: "In a few months, I will be tired of it, I will break up with Amber, and then chase back Tanlula and remarry Tanlula."

Martin looked at the white fat man carefully, and said to himself, is it fun to play like this? He shook his head, "I don't know what you're thinking."

Musk didn't answer, but said: "There is one more thing, solemnly tell you, it is certain that I will remarry Tanlula, if you have been with her before, it will be broken from tonight, don't have a super friendship relationship anymore, there are many female stars who are engaged or married in Hollywood, and it is very simple to hook up with your charm and means to let them cheat."

Martin's face didn't change, he didn't bother to distinguish it anymore, and said, "Don't worry, I have never met Tanlula except when I met you."

Musk said casually: "It's okay that I'm not there for what she did outside of marriage

Huh."

The two then chatted about Tesla's investment.

Tesla has entered a period of rapid development, and its stock price has risen one after another recently, but it is not easy for an investor like Martin to get another share of the investment.

…………

Century City, Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

Ryan Reynolds carried a large briefcase and took the elevator from the Fox Building to the first floor.

Cowell, the agent who was waiting on the first floor, greeted him, took the briefcase, and asked, "How's it going?"

Ryan Reynolds didn't speak, but went to Starbucks, which was also on the first floor, ordered two cups of coffee at random, found a place to sit, and said, "Little stars have no human rights, and no one takes their words seriously."

He opened his briefcase and pulled out a clip-bound book of posters, advertisements and creative plans, with a man holding a double knife and wearing a red hood on the cover.

This is the look of Deadpool in "Wolverine" starring Ryan Reynolds.

"The reality is that if the big star had proposed, the Fox hierarchy would have met to discuss it," Cowell said.

Ryan Reynolds has wanted to promote Deadpool's personal film project since last year, but the X-Men's film and television rights are in the hands of Twentieth Century Fox, and he can't convince Fox executives.

Cowell looked left and right, saw that there was no one around, and asked in a low voice, "They are not interested in the party you proposed?"

Ryan Reynolds was rather helpless: "I mentioned a few words in private, but they didn't answer at all." He slammed the table: "I really want to give people benefits, but there is no way."

Cowell said: "If you don't have a certain connection, you don't reach a certain height in the circle, and sometimes you can't give gifts."

Ryan Reynolds lowered his voice and asked the agent, "Are you sure they like the little ones?"

"There's no mistake about that, there's been a rumor in the industry for a long time, and I've asked someone to confirm that they like it." Cowell thought of what the problem was: "It's going to be a problem if this kind of thing gets out of here, they don't trust you enough, even if we send people to their door, they won't want it."

Ryan Reynolds felt it made sense and asked, "What do we do? Do you have any other ideas?"

Cowell thought for a long time and said, "It would be much better to find an intermediary they trust enough to send out an invitation."

Ryan asked, "Is there such a person?"

Cowell took a sip of his coffee and said, "Yes, have you heard of Michelle Brian?"

"The famous bustard?" Ryan not only heard of it, but also looked for it from her.

"She has the trust of people in the industry and is said to be involved in this business," Cowell said.

Ryan couldn't wait: "Contact her quickly."

"It can be expensive," Cowell said.

Thinking of the bleak future, Ryan decided to take a chance: "I still have some money in my hand, not enough to sell the house!"
