American fame and fortune

When the contract was signed and payment was made, Martin's car was also changed.

Antonio sat in the spacious rear seat of the Escalade and felt that there was enough room for his big belly. He said: "This car is good, tough, aggressive and has a lot of space."

Martin pointed to the driver's seat: "This guy, Old Bu, wants to buy a Hummer."

Bruce started the car: "That's a man's toy."

Antonio half-lyed on the large seat: "Comfort is the most important thing."

Martin said, "Did you hear that, Boo?"

Bruce raised a middle finger behind him.

When they arrived at the real estate company, Thomas and the lawyer had already arrived.

The formalities went very smoothly, and Martin got the keys to the house that day.

When I came to the Coty community, the real estate company had already had someone clean it up, and the house was clean and tidy.

Martin turned around and said, "There are still many things missing." He looked at Thomas: "Give me some advice."

Thomas said truthfully: "My current home was bought by my girlfriend, and she broke up with me later..."

At this point, I can't continue. During that time, because of overtime work, my girlfriends paid one by one, and it was too difficult.

Martin said, "Move here first, and buy what you need."

In a place like Los Angeles, if you have money, you don't lack for things.

Bruce skillfully took out his camera and said to Martin, "Take a photo with your new home and post it on the blog."

Martin praised Lao Bu: "You are getting more and more intelligent."

Internet sharing will soon become a key link for celebrities to attract traffic.

Leaving Thomas and Antonio behind, Martin and Bruce returned to the North Hollywood apartment, plus Emily and Jessica's car, and moved all their things here at once.

Bruce is mostly clothing and a few guns.

In addition to these, Martin also has crew memorabilia, emeralds and Australian specialties.

When Emily entered the living room of the villa with a pile of crocodile fangs, Thomas happened to see it.

Seeing the huge number, he couldn't help asking: "Martin, have you pulled out all the teeth of the Australian crocodile?"

Martin has a thick skin and is not embarrassed at all: "I just got the news a few days ago that I legally hunted and killed more than a dozen 6-meter-long crocodiles in Australia, and my memory has deteriorated, so I don't even remember them."

Antonio watched and shook his head. With Martin's shamelessness, sooner or later this stuff will flood Hollywood.

Originally, he still thought that when Martin became a superstar, the pendant and sculpture that Martin gave would fetch a good price, but now it seems that he should sell it earlier.

Go back and find a tenant who wants to be a star and sell it.

Bruce gave Jessica the camera and told her to go to the study and upload the photos to the blog.

In addition to uploading photos, Jessica also wrote a short composition in Martin's tone.

"Today is a special day. I moved out of my North Hollywood apartment and moved into a new home. I would like to share photos of my new home with you."

Photos and text were posted on the blog.

When Jessica looked at the fan section and came back, there were already hundreds of messages, and dozens of entertainment bloggers forwarded them.

In the name of Martin, she picked a few and replied. When she looked again, she found that the official blogs of "Hollywood Reporter" and "Entertainment Weekly" also reposted the blog post just now.

The young Jessica has a special sense of accomplishment. Compared with other Hollywood stars of the same rank, Martin's influence is much greater, even surpassing Hollywood and the film and television industry.

Outside, Bruce took the electric drill and other tools and went to install some equipment on the fence.

Martin and Thomas each carried a bag and went to the underground storage room.

There are two metal cabinets standing on the ground, which are just right for guns.

Martin opened the bag to reveal several ARs and shotguns.

Thomas had a toothache and asked specifically, "Is the gun okay?"

Martin nodded: "They are all registered legal guns. I forgot to tell you. LAPD helped me apply for a concealed gun license."

"In your situation, it's safer to have a gun." Thomas knew about the Russians and had no objection to Martin holding a gun.

All of the pistols had special grips that looked rather awkward, much like hammerheads.

After the North Hollywood bank robbery in 1998, California tightened regulations on assault weapons, banning pistol grips for long weapons, including semi-automatic rifles and shotguns.

If there is a policy, arms dealers will naturally have countermeasures, and hammerhead and shark fin grips came into being.

Anyway, users don't have to worry, arms dealers always have a solution.

After the spare weapons in the basement were put away, Martin went back to the first floor and carried another bag. He went around each large room to hide the weapons.

Antonio was quite speechless, saying that this man was cowardly, he dared to jump out to fight the gunmen, that he was brave and overly cautious.

Martin came down from the stairs, and it was almost noon. He yelled twice, and waited for someone to come over, and said, "We'll have a big meal at noon to celebrate, and we're ready to send it out."

During the meal, Antonio gave Martin Coty the contact information of the chairman of the community board.

Martin has just moved here, and he will not be able to visit until he settles down.

He is going to Washington soon, and he plans to come back from Washington and throw another party.

In the afternoon, Martin sent the others away, and went with Lao Bu to go shopping together.

Mainly bedding and daily necessities.

As soon as the two got out of the mall, Martin received a call from Julie from the Middle East.

He motioned for Bruce to drive and put on the phone.

"I just saw your blog through the Internet." Julie was relatively quiet: "Congratulations, you have moved to a new house."

Martin laughed: "You can still access the Internet, which means it's not dangerous."

"I was in the embassy in Baghdad and yesterday I gave a speech to the Iraqi people and the response was really good," Julie said.

Martin asked curiously, "What content?"

Julie smiled: "Congratulations to them for getting rid of the brutal dictatorship of the tyrant and gaining precious democratic freedom."

Martin said: "Student, you have learned all the teacher's skills."

It was inconvenient for Julie, and her words were cryptic: "Teacher, when I go back, I will double the tuition fee."

The two quickly hung up the phone.

Bruce, who was driving, glanced at the side of the co-pilot and asked, "I remember you taught me that a dead star is more conducive to a movie's big sale than a living lead?"

God knows what kind of crap Martin taught Boo.

Martin said casually: "It doesn't necessarily have to be a big hit, but it's easier to make a fuss about marketing, and the publicity effect will be better."

Bruce said, "Over there in the Middle East, I know some people..."

"Old Bu, can you be a human being?" Martin immediately seized the moral high ground: "Although we are rotten people, we are rotten people with principles and bottom lines!"

Bruce had an innocent face: "I didn't say anything!"

Martin changed the subject: "Pack up as soon as possible, we will go to Washington to receive the award in two days."

Bruce said: "There are only medals, not even bonuses."

Martin is very conscious: "Even if I get this kind of bonus, I have to donate it."

When the two returned home, the ordered goods were delivered quickly.

In the middle of the afternoon, Mene also came to help. He didn't look for new roles for the time being, because "The Departed Walker" will start filming in mid-July.

…………

A commercial vehicle parked outside the Clayton neighborhood in Atlanta.

On the driving seat, Alex looked at the dilapidated house from a distance, and said to the two subordinates: "This is it, you should carefully inquire about Martin Davis' past, people who live in this kind of place usually leave Flour, gangs, and crime for useful news leads."

The subordinate named Albert said: "Can you give them some benefits?"

Alex nodded: "Yes."

Another subordinate White reminded: "Bring your press card, this kind of place is more dangerous."

Of course Alex knew the potential dangers of the slums: "Wear your ID well, if the situation is wrong, get out first."

Albert is very confident: "There is no news we want in the News of the World, and we can't get it!"

Alex waved his hands and let the two enter the community.

He took a newspaper from the side. On the social news page of the newspaper, several people who will receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom this year are listed.

Chairman of the Federal Reserve Greenspan, boxing champion Ali, father of the Internet Winton Cove, Hollywood star Martin Davis.

"News of the World" is the weekend edition of "The Sun", which entered North America with News Corporation many years ago.

Alex's news team didn't want to miss the big news about the Presidential Medal of Freedom, but like the Sun, they never took the usual route and were known for creating breaking news.

What does regular coverage mean? Doesn't catch the eye at all.

Alex is very good at picking targets, Greenspan is not easy to mess with, boxing champion Ali has been deeply rooted for many years, and it will be troublesome if he is labeled as discriminating against blacks, Winton Cove is conservative and has tens of millions of dollars...

Is there a better fit than Martin Davis? Famous, influential, and alone.

As for the leader of the Coke God, as long as he launches a fatal blow to destroy his public image and create established facts, the business will not hesitate to give up. This kind of thing has happened countless times in North America.

Alex put his finger on Martin's head, and his voice rose inexplicably loudly: "I don't know you well. It's the reporter's sense of responsibility to find you. The public has the right to know."

What he wants to do is actually very simple, and it is also what the media is used to. A star plus a hero has been successfully created, and the news value of continuing to publicize his glorious deeds is far worse than destroying his news value.

Alex said to himself: "Make stars, destroy stars!"

At the gate of the Clayton community, Albert entered the small supermarket, selected beverages and snacks, and went to the cashier to check out.

The owner, Nani, wore a fang pendant and scanned the QR code to settle the bill: "25 dollars, thank you."

Albert took out two 20-denomination dollars and handed them over until Nani gave the change, and said, "I'm a reporter, and I'm asking you for some news."

Nani has seen more than one reporter recently: "About Martin?"

Albert asked, "Is there any inside information?" He took out another dollar and slapped it on the counter: "It's better to be explosive."

Nani didn't need to hide for anyone, and told the truth: "Martin, I've known him for ten years. To be able to eat at the Carter's house, he and the eldest daughter of the Carter's family got together very early..."

He said a lot, emphasizing the explosive: "By the way, Martin's parents are all jerks, my mother died in a car accident with too many drugs, and my father is a liar, alcoholic and drug addict. He seduced the Carter family and took Martin's first love girlfriend My mother ran away, and I don’t know where she went.”

There are two more chapters in the back, and I am trying to code words, which should be published at noon.
